Our cat really seem to enjoy having someone stop in and visit with him while we were out of town with family. Julie was very respectful of our home, always made sure our house was locked/alarmed when she left after the visit and treated our fur baby really well. She's very nice, a good communicator and was accommodating, not that we asked for a lot. She also agreed to water my plants on one of the visits during the week that we were gone. We even got adorable pictures of our cat on our Rover cards during her visits. We had a really reassuring experience having her as our pet sitter. We highly recommend her and will absolutely be contacting her for our next trip out of town.

About: I have had several animals over the years. Dogs, Cats, Small birds, Fish and small reptiles. All so very different. Have had curious pups, one who obtained an eye injury from our cat requiring eyedrops. Elderly dogs that have sensitive needs and care. Experienced in administrating minor meds or changing dressings if needed. Had a husky who was an escape artist, very familiar with securing yards, fencing, holes or gates. Became a fast runner too! Paid for boarding for my dogs that I was not pleased about, maybe because mine are a bit spoiled? Animals are not just pets, they are part of the family! I work during the day 8-5pm Monday through Friday. I can check on pets before and after work and any time on the weekends. Able to do night stays if needed. My dogs are crate trained for bed or mischief if it happens. They get switched every 2-4 hrs or so for potty breaks. I don’t leave them outside when weather is extreme (hot,cold or rainy). I don’t play tug a war as Caesar states it’s an aggressive game for dogs. I like to make dogs earn their treats if it’s only a simple sit…😎

Rhiannon was fabulous! Our cat loved her. She sent photos and videos from visits and even brought some emergency litter when our cat's litter ran out. We will absolutely hire Rhiannon in the future!

About: I have taken care of pets for neighbors, friends, and teachers of mine! I also volunteered at Watermelon Mountain Ranch in high school. I would be honored to be chosen to take care of your companion! I am in the job market, so I am available when you need me! I can take your dog to the park or on a walk during your lunch, or even stay with them during the weekdays. I can carry out any instructions for care that are given. If your dog needs a lot of play and stimulation, I can accommodate! If your animal is low maintenance and prefers to cuddle on the coach, I can bring a book or watch a show.

Skyler did such a great job catsitting for our two kitties!! She was very communicative and sent pictures while we were gone. Skyler made sure she knew how to administer our cats medications before we left, and we felt confident in her with her past experience. I would definitely recommend Skyler to anyone needing a reliable pet sitter:)

About: I grew up surrounded by a family of dogs and cats. Since I was a kid I have owned or taken care of puppies all the way to senior dogs. My 16 year old Brittany Spaniel recently passed away. I had her since she was a month old. I like to think I gave her an amazing adventurous life. Dogs are angels and I love spending time with them. I currently have a full time job Monday through Friday. My hours however are only 7am-2pm. Most evenings are open including weekends. I love being active outside of work so this opportunity fits well. I have a front yard surrounded by a tall adobe wall and locked gate. I have one energetic 3 year old dog at the moment who loves playing and running. I take her to a nearby field where I throw a ball and she plays fetch like crazy. My neighborhood is safe and quiet and my main priority is my dog’s safety.

Madelyn did an amazing job looking after our cats when we were gone for Thanksgiving week. She was also kind enough to bring in the mail. The cats were well taken care of. It was a great worry off my mind knowing someone was there to ensure they had food water and treats every day. Would definitely book again.

Celeste is hands down the best pet sitter we ever had. We were so worried because we had an unexpected trip come up and were scrambling to find help with our pets. Celeste stepped up and helped us in our time of need. She went above and beyond to show us our pets were loved and well taken care of. I cannot sing her praises enough 💛💛💛

We hired Levi to watch our cats while gone for 3 weeks out of the country. He did multiple daily checks that involved several tasks, including litter management, feeding, playing, and also took care of our plants. He was easy to get ahold of and is great to work with. Will definitely be using him again.

Arianna went above and beyond to take care of my two cats in an RV in 100+ temps. Normally they are shy with a new catsitter, and they trusted her right away. I booked several months early, and she proactively reached out to confirm. I highly recommend Arianna for her friendliness, concern, communication, and reliability!

Highly recommend. Margaret was great with both my high energy pittie and my super skittish boxer mix. She kept me updated and sent lots of cute pictures. She even went above and beyond by noticing that it was trash day and taking the trash out for me. It’s always stressful leaving my dogs behind while I travel, but Margaret eased my concerns. I would definitely use her again!
