“Stephanie took incredible care of our dog while we were out of town. Her and her family were a great fit for her, sent me frequent updates, and I was confident the whole time that she was in good hands. I will absolutely be checking with her first for future trips.”
“Margerita was very accommodating and understanding during the entire stay. I was worried about leaving my dog for the first time, but she communicated well and helped my husband and I ease our mind. My Australian shepherd is an anxious dog, but when I picked her up she seemed very happy and taken care of. I could tell that Margerita was able to handle my dog incredibly well and it made me extremely happy to have my dog socialized with Margeritas pets. I highly recommend her services, and I will definitely book through her in the future!”

“Tracey and Rick are simply the best! I feel so comfortable having my 10 yr old rescue (Boogie) in their care. I LOVE receiving photos of him while at the farm! What a considerate, loving thing to do! I’d very highly recommend Once Upon a Happy Farm!!”
“So many things to like. I liked that Amy communicated how my dog spent her day. Happy that she didn’t just say it was fine. Good or bad - I want to know. Amy was very patient and understanding to my dog’s needs. I’ve already booked another day!”

“This is our second time using Jennifer as our rover and it was another success! We boarded our puppy with her for three days and then one night for the second stay! She kept in constant contact with me throughout both stays and sent plenty of photos! No issues at all, everything went smoothly as we look forward to using her again in the future!”
“Alyssa and her family were absolutely the best. My little Shih Tzu gets kind of shy and nervous but he warmed up so fast. I was sent update photos and I could tell my dog felt at home. If I’m being honest, he seemed not as excited when I showed up. Definitely recommend and will use this family again. Thank you isn’t enough!”

“I haven’t left my cat alone with someone I don’t know in all of his 16.7 years. But when my friend backed out at the last minute, Bethany stepped in. Phin loved her, and she happily gave him cuddles and social time. He was relieved we were home, but actually gained weight while we were gone, which is awesome! The pictures and notes were really affirming for me. Will definitely book Bethany again for when I’m out of town again. Highly highly recommended!!”
“I was urgently looking for another cat sitter after having a really disappointing experience with my previous one. Then I came across Yuridia's profile, and I'm SO glad I found her! She's a 10/10 cat sitter. I had quite a few tasks for each visit, and she managed to do everything perfectly! She's thoughtful, detail-oriented, communicative, and genuinely cares about the cats she looks after. I felt so relieved knowing my cats were finally in good hands. I would absolutely recommend Yuridia to any cat parent looking for a caring and trustworthy sitter!”

About: I’ve cared for cats for 30 years and understand that each one has their own unique personality. I’m calm, patient, and respectful of their space, whether they’re social and playful or more shy and independent. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, litter box cleaning, playtime, and giving cats the attention they want (and space when they don’t). I also have cats of my own, so I know how important it is to have someone you trust caring for them. I aim to create a calm, safe environment while you’re away.
About: I’ve cared for cats my entire life and understand that each one has a unique personality and routine. I have experience feeding, refreshing water, cleaning litter boxes, administering basic care, providing playtime and enrichment, and making sure cats feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I’m patient, attentive, and respectful of each cat’s space, whether they’re social and playful or shy and independent. As a Veterinary Technician student, I’m also expanding my knowledge of feline health and behavior to provide the best care possible.
“Margerita was great! She is clearly an animal lover! She was on time, took clear pictures of my two senior boys when they ate, and cleaned the cat box just like I requested (it fills up too fast to skip it, because kidney disease). She spent time hanging out so they got the human interaction that these two social cats crave. She has a very friendly and polite demeanor, and a flexible schedule that made it easy to come by at the times I needed her. I would hire her again!”
“I am 100% satisfied with Nadine’s pet care service. My cats Curzon and Jadzia were welcomed and and enjoyed being with her house pets and got along so well with multiple cats. I was so pleased to get daily picture updates and Nadine responded timely to all my text messages. I highly recommend her for cat boarding and genuine pet care.”
“Sylvia was fantastic! I didn’t have to worry about a thing while i was on my trip. She let me know when she arrived and she took plenty of pictures! I’m very appreciative of how she cared for my boy and will definitely have her check in on him next time i’m away!”

“Allison is amazing! I contacted her early in the morning after I woke up to a text from our sitter canceling last minute the day of. We had plans to go to the Monterey Aquarium for my son’s third birthday and I’m not sure what we would have done if she hadn’t been available to watch our little Jasper for the day with only an hour notice. Allison sent us photo updates throughout the day and it was so sweet to see Jasper having such a great time! I highly recommend her and would definitely book with her again!”
About: I've taken care of dogs, since I was 10. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets. In my family we have all ways had 2 small dogs, and now I have my current dog of 5 years, love him so much like my baby, sleeps and cuddles with me all the time. I'm currently a stay at home mom, so I have plenty of time to play/walk with your pups! I'm available for dog walking, while my son is in school and in the afternoon. Open availability on the weekends. I think trust is important when it comes to animals. Animals need to smell you first to get to know you. I always let an animal smell my hand and then I’ll ease into petting them once I can tell from body language if they want me to.

I work part-time so I'll have plenty of time to spend with your pets and live with family so they'll be taken care of when I'm not around :) I live in a gated home with a large backyard for your pet to roam free in :) I also have two different sized crates available if needed.
About: I am looking forward to caring for your pets! I grew up with very big dogs, German shepherds, Cane Corso, and Pitbulls, so I know how to properly give them the care they need. I am also great with small dogs and cats. The past couple years I have house sat and taken dogs on walks for many family members, I am now ready to offer my services to you 😊 I currently work from home so I have lots of time to give your pet the attention they need! Whether that is a long walk or pets inside I will always be sure to communicate effectively, send you updates and photos. I will be mindful and focused on your pet at all times.
“Arthur has been a godsend and a huge help with my dog, Rufus. He's quick to respond, been super accommodating with my scheduling needs, is super attentive with my dog, and thoroughly responsible and nice. He's also great with feedback and helpful observations about Rufus' health and wellness. Totally recommend him.”
About: I've had animals all my life, big, small and all species. Friends and family have always counted on me to take care of their pets keeping them happy and safe, while they were away. I have been caring for client pets in a professional manner for about 2 1/2 to 3 years and continue to do so everyday! I have lots of pets of my own that are fed every morning and night as well as taken out for exercise as much as I possibly can. I have experience working as a kennel attendant, some background in vet tech (no degree) and I have been a pet sitter for about 2 1/2 years. I have recently opened up my availability to accept more clients and I would love the opportunity to care for your pets! I like to make sure your pet gets all the exercise they need so they aren’t super wound up by the time you get home! Treats are always giving if allowed and lots of attention of course. For house sittings, I also include plant watering services, making sure mail and packages are brought in and that the house is clean before you get home!
About: I have been taking care of animals my entire life. I was raised around animals and treat them all like they are my own. I have experience with puppies, dog walking, and managing multiple dogs at one time. I currently work full time at a school but I like to take care of animals when I am free. I have a lot of time off and my weekend is open for any fur baby that needs me. I think trust is important when it comes to animals. Animals need to smell you first to get to know you. I always let an animal smell my hand and then I’ll ease into petting them once I can tell from body language if they want me to.

About: I believe taking care of a dog is like taking care of a baby, only with fur. I have 9 plus yrs of experience with dogs. I’ve dog sat for family & friends. What sets me apart from other sitters is the patience I have with dogs. I believe earning a dogs trust is a great sign of comfort of them be well raised dogs. Comfort &calmness is what dogs love most. Feel free to ask me anything. Looking forward to new opportunity employment. I will give great pet care to my best and ready to put your pet sitting worries at ease. At this time, I’m unable to provide overnight boarding or house sitting in my home because I currently live with family. However, I’d still love to care for your pets! I’m available for drop-in visits, dog walking, daycare (if applicable), and pet sitting in your home during the day. My goal is to make sure your pets feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. Being attentive. Having a routine is what I believe pets thrive on to be an obedient. I’ve trained my dog in the past to be great walker from a puppy to adult age and trained when it was time relieve themselves outside. I’ve learned when you use repetitive words they will eventually know what command it is. Consistency and routine is key.

“My dog had her first overnight stay and it went well! My dog is usually a bit on the anxious side and was made absolutely comfortable. Very happy with the care my dog received. Highly recommend!”
