Pet Sitters in Brookshire, CA

Emily

Emily and Derek were PHENOMENAL! They expertly took care of my dog for a whole month. They were incredibly friendly, easy to communicate with, and happily adapted to my dogs needs and routine. They were attentive, responsible, and asked questions that illustrated a lot of care. My dog was sad to see them go!

Kiersten

Kiersten is a dream to work with—personable, engaged, responsible, and devoted to pets! My one year-old Shih-Tzu took to her right away and was sad to see her go. Everything in the house was shipshape as well. Highly recommended!

Ray

My experience with Ray as our house sitter was nothing short of fantastic. From the moment he stepped in, his gentle spirit was evident. He was keenly interested, asking thoughtful questions and showing great enthusiasm during the tour. What stood out most was his immediate connection with our cats. Returning home, it was clear that Ray had a wonderful impact. Our feline friends were the epitome of calm and serenity, a testament to his caring and attentive nature. Beyond the well-being of our pets, our home was impeccably maintained, reflecting Ray's respect and diligence. His presence as a house sitter brought us immense peace of mind, and we would wholeheartedly welcome him back in the future. Thank you, Ray!!

Sue & Mark

It was such a pleasure too have Sue as a pet sitter! During the few phone calls we had beforehand, she began too feel like an old friend, I knew I was leaving my home and my cat in good hands. Everything went very smoothly and I am hoping she may come sit for us again in the future.

Lucy

Lucy and Alex were fantastic sitters for our fur family! From our very first interaction with them while interviewing applicants, we were struck by their kind and calm presence, attention to detail, and clear love for all animal beings. While we were away, Lucy and Alex made sure that all of the furs got plenty of love and attention. They took the pups to the dog beach several times, engaged them with enrichment activities throughout the sit, and even took them along to dinner on the last evening of the sit. And, they were very communicative throughout the entire sit. We received photo / video updates from around the house and various outings. And when something unexpected happened (Levi left some of his breakfast uneaten), they readily texted to ask what they should do. When we returned home (at midnight, after flight delays), we found a spotlessly cleaned house, guest room sheets and towels laundered, and four fur babies who were happy to see us. We would absolutely welcome Lucy and Alex to sit for our fur family again!

Kiernan

Kiernan was phenomenal. He is the only sitter we've had who got rave reviews from our neighbors. One neighbor asked him for help starting immediately after his sit at our house and he cancelled his travel plans to assist in their emergency. If you get the chance to hire Kiernan, do it!

Matthew

Matthew and Monica were a delight and we enjoyed having them in our home. we came back after a two week trip to find all of our pets well loved and cared for. We would be happy to have Matt & Monica back some other time in the future.

Allyson

Allyson and Sarah were reliable and caring cat-sitters/house-sitters. They had excellent communication and left the house as tidy as they found it. I highly recommend them both!

Anny & Shuhan

Anny and Shuhan have completely raised the bar for pet/home sitters in my eyes. They were tasked with watching my 8 year old, a very unique and energetic Australian Shepherd Collie Mix and my many plants for a total of 10 days, and they have completely exceeded my expectations in every way. I consider myself blessed to have found them. Link was happy as a peach and neither needed anything nor wanted for anything more. He had all the affection and attention he needed. They stuck to his original schedule to a T, and added a bunch of fun activities in between. He adored the pair, who took him on many adventures which included errands, hiking, the beach, a day in the suburbs, small hangouts with dog loving friends, and all the walks he could want. I was graced with a nightly update of how the day went, which included a daily photo reel of my little guy. This was the cherry on top and really brought me relief and daily joy in knowing how well he was being cared for. Finding ways to ensure Link gets out his energy is not always easy because he has recently been having issues at the park, so their creativity and motivation to explore was extremely appreciated. They managed to teach my 8 year old pup a NEW trick while I was gone, that we are both still enjoying to this day. Who says you can’t teach an old dog new tricks? Not Anny and Shuhan, that’s who. Link is fed a homemade natural recipe for his tender tummy that I pre-make for my sitters. When I miscalculated the amount he would need, and he ended up needing more food, Anny and Shuhan went above and beyond to go and source the ingredients and then make the recipe. They could have taken numerous other easier routes to supplement his food, but they took this route because they knew it was better for Link, and they did so happily. To ensure we were a good match, they met with me prior to my trip and we took Link for a walk together to get acclimated and that was when I knew they were perfect. On that very first walk, Link went to grab a loose bone on the floor and Anny was immediately on top of it and got the bone out of his mouth in moments. That’s how good they are. If you’re considering choosing Anny and Shuhan, I would say don’t think twice, just do it. Rest assured when you leave your pets and your home in Anny and Shuhan’s care that you will come home to an immaculate home and to a well-cared for and majorly pampered pet. You may even be inspired to up your game for your pets after you see how much fun they had with Anny and Shuhan, I know I have. We have been going on long adventure walks everyday since. Thank you Anny and Shuhan, I could not have asked for a better caretaker for my fur baby.

Ari

Ari was great! She managed everything really well. Happy cats when we returned and our house was in good shape too. I'd be happy to have her back anytime.

Alex was a first rate house and pet sitter who took great care of our golden retriever puppy and our house. We were unreachable part of the time we were gone and she took care of everything without a problem. We would welcome her back anytime we go away.

Thea took great care of our kitties. She was easy to coordinate with, very flexible and self sufficient. She sent us regular updates.

Thomas

Sandra and Thomas were very helpful and communicative both before and during the housesit. The house was very comfortable and they left lots of helpful information about the house and the animals. 
The bunnies were very easy to look after and very friendly. We had a lovely time there.

Rachel

Really lovely sit! Rose is such a sweet, silly kitten and you will fall in love with her instantly - she's really a joy and I miss her already! She loves to play and sometimes nap on your lap, which is such a treat. Rachel was so kind and easy-going, and left me bread and cookies, told me to help myself to their groceries, etc. The house itself is really spacious which is so nice, every room almost felt like a dance studio, and everything was super clean and renovated. Really everything was easy and straightforward. Highly recommended and would return!

Maria

Lolita is a really charming dog! She always make that puppy eyes that everyone loves. The house was very good located and Maria explained to me everything so i didn’t have any doubt! Awesome experience

Fiona

Wow. What a place. Absolutely stunning location. Beautiful beaches. Amazing wildlife all around. Moxie and Marmite were brilliant and so full of character and a real joy to look after. I would definitely recommend this sit if you get the opportunity. Thankyou Fiona for your kindness and a lovely stay.

Brooke

In summary, we had a wonderful time! :)

Brooke was an excellent host, providing a welcome package, and maintaining smooth daily communication.

The apartment was comfortable for a couple like us, surrounded by ample countryside to explore and relax. Additionally, there was a beautiful sky view from her flat.

Charley is amazing, and we already miss her. She quickly warmed up to us and our dog Benji (this time, we had to bring our baby along), and within around 5 days, they were playing and sleeping together. Charley, though initially appearing low-energy, turned out to be quite energetic. She's submissive, which worked well with Benji, who tends to be a bit bossy. Though she was a bit sick initially, she improved with a diet of chicken and rice, especially enjoying rice soaked in chicken broth. During our city visit, a restaurant outing, and using public transport, Charley behaved perfectly.

Tony and Yvette

Soobie is a total sweetheart and Yvette has such a cozy living space in a great location. Would definitely recommend this sit!
