1. Nicolas J.

“Nicolas was PHENOMENAL watching my cat while I was away for business! He was very accommodating with getting access to my apartment, and went above and beyond sending updates. Nicolas will be the first person I go to for my future cat sitting needs and can't recommend him enough!”

3. Natalie B.

“I couldn’t be more than thrilled to have had Natalie come and check in on my 4 fur babies. Milo, Mia, Molly and Moti had such a fun time being walked and played with. I would highly recommend Natalie for all your doggie needs when ever you need them walked, boarded and check-in on while away.”

If service days or hours is needed outside of what was previously mentioned please reach out to me for availability. I’m more than happy to take care of your fur baby.

If they are not kitty friendly please do not send boarding requests. All dogs MUST be on flea, tick & worm medication & vaccines up to date, I have indoor cats that are not exposed to the outside.


5. Raymond G.

“Raymond cared for our 150lbs Great Dane German Shepard mix as if she were his own. This is not easy work, especially when she sets her head on your lap wanting to be pet after lapping up a gallon of water. Big jowls = slobber everywhere! Raymond definitely went the extra mile. We live in a high rise in downtown Long Beach so it takes a minute to get up to our apartment; parking is always impossible; and, despite scheduling only 30-minute visits, Raymond still managed to get our Dane downstairs for a walk two, often three times a day, feed her, refresh her water, and send us updates and photos. He even adjusted the A/C at our request, moved a chair out of the way of the way and repositioned our webcam so we could see what our baby girl was up to whenever we felt the need to check in on her. Perhaps the thing I appreciated most, was that he did not take issue with our apartment in its current state of disarray. Thank you so much Raymond!! We'll definitely be returning clients.”
6. Loralie G.

“Loralie was such a wonderful cat sitter! She was communicative and caring, which definitely made our time away from home much less stressful. Thanks so much!!”


7. Maria L.
“maria often dog sits for me and always makes sure to send photos of my pup having the time of her life!! highly recommend booking maria for walks and boarding — my dog has a blast and i have peace of mind!”


8. Holland B.
“I've known Holly all her life and she is a great person and a wonderful animal lover. She has a cat named Oliver who is probably the most spoiled cat on the planet. She never gets mad at him, even when he throws up on her Nikes. And I always tell her that if anything ever happens to me, she gets my cat, George. She is very responsible and will do a great job of taking care of your pets!”


9. Samantha J.

“Samantha is one of the most responsible, gentle, loving, and selfless people I know, especially when it comes to caring for animals. She has personally owned and cared for more than 4 dogs, all of whom have enjoyed happy and healthy lives. She has also lived with three separate people with pets of their own, and in each living arrangement took it upon herself to help feed, walk, and otherwise care for her roommate's pets without needing to be asked for support. She has the intangible gift of anticipating a pet's need and immediately earns the trust and affection of all animals she encounters. I would trust her with any pet, from dogs and cats to reptiles and fish.”


10. Stephanie O.

“Stephanie was great with our kitty! Made him feel loved and updated us with everything we needed! we will definitely be using her again. Thank you!”


11. Nelly A.

“Nelly did a great job with my senior pom! She was very attentive to all the directions and even took notes. Would definitely have her dog sit again in the future.”


12. Shioka C.

“Shioka was easily one of the best sitters I’ve had and it’s clear how much she cares for animals. She was very communicative every time she dropped in to visit my cat and I could tell by her update photos/videos my cat absolutely adored her. After the initial meet and greet any doubts or worries i had were gone, she definitely deserves more bookings!”


13. Heather V.

“Heather took great care of Esme over the course of nearly 2 weeks while we were on vacation. Highly communicative, very attentive to her needs, it was a pleasure having her take care. Will definitely be booking Heather again!”


14. Ariana G.

“Ariana was wonderful! She was able to meet our dogs before her drop in visits. Communication was flawless. It was a pleasure to have her! We will definitely use her again. Thanks sooo much!”


15. Alexa L.

“Alexa is such a kind and genuine person. I could tell she really loves animals. She sent lots of picture updates. She is easy to work with and follows instructions well. Will definitely be booking with her again soon!”


16. April R.
“April is so loving and caring towards animals. She is just amazing with dogs. They really do love when she’s around. She takes very good care of them, take them out for walks and give them treats.”


17. Dawn W.


“Dawn did a fantastic job with my cat while I was away these past few days! I’m so glad to have found such a great sitter for him, and couldn’t be more grateful.”


18. Holly H.
“Holly was fantastic with my dog, Kiwi! Definitely responsible, showed a lot of affection, and even was able to teach Kiwi some basic obedience skills (i.e. lying down on command) that Kiwi has retained since. We were very impressed and would highly recommend Holly as a pet caregiver!”

20. Seangthea S.
“I definitely recommend Sea as a pet caregiver. She’s looked after my super active husky, and I’ve been really impressed with how patient and detail-oriented she is. My husky can be a handful, but Sea always keeps up with him and makes sure he’s happy and well cared for. She’s so thoughtful about everything, which makes me feel super confident leaving him with her.”
