Pet Sitters in Dillon Beach, CA

Gwen

Gwen was a wonderful house and cat sitter during our extended summer trip. Our elderly cats require quite a bit of medication and attention and we returned home to happy kitties. Can't recommend her enough!

Caroline & Shawn

Caroline & Shaun were awesome! Minnie was so well taken care of. They sent regular updates of their adventures via messages and pics. My home was spotless upon returning which was very much appreciated, especially after a very long day of traveling. Caroline & Shaun are welcome back anytime.

Elizabeth & Ryan Vincent

Despite a few logistical challenges Elizabeth and Vincent took loving care of our 10 month old basset! He can be a stubborn boy but they were flexible to his needs and kept him entertained! They sent updates and photos to keep us in the loop!

Teri

Teri and Michael were amazing sitters!! Very sweet, easy to communicate with, very caring with the pets and they took excellent care of our house (plants, garden, cleaning…). We highly recommend them and would love to have them again for our next trip.

Brenda

Brenda and Jeff were absolutely amazing!!! Even before the stay began these two wonderful people stepped up and saved our vacation; 5 days before we were leaving, a different sitter cancelled on us and Brenda and Jeff stepped in and saved us. They live in the area so Brenda was able to come over the day before we left and walk the property and see our normal routine. During our trip away, we were routinely kept informed of how things were going and if there were any concerns or questions they always communicated clearly with us. We returned home to happy well taken care of dogs and donkeys and a sparkling clean home. We would happily have these two incredible people back in our home anytime! If you get an application from these two, absolutely know that your home and pets will be taken care of in the best manner possible.

Danielle

Dani was a wonderful sitter for our dog and for our home. We enjoyed our brief overlapping time together. She came with her dog, who was also a delight. We would invite her back in a heartbeat!

Maya

This is the second time Maya has sat for my cat and I -- and I hope she'll return again soon. She's a great sitter. Good communication, no drama, a spotless home to return to, a happy cat, and a thoughtful note. Highly recommended!

Karen

Karen was awesome. She's smart, thorough, asks the right questions, is very concerned about the pets and plants. Simply put, she was a wonderful sitter for my home and pets. She sent me pictures every day with an update so we knew out fur babies and horse buddies were well. That left us more time to enjoy our trip and no time to worry. Would have her housesit again anytime and told her so!

Susan & Synde

Susan was a true delight. She’s get’s very engaged with the kitties as if they were her own. I got to hear all the fun stories of their adventures together. Susan was extremely neat and the house was as clean as when I left for my trip. I will most definitely hire Susan and Synde back‼️

Brook

Brook was responsible and conscientious. She took care of our house and front and back gardens for almost 6 weeks that included two weeks of 100 degree plus heat (very challenging to keep our large pollinator gardens alive in that heat, which she did), and did a very good job of doing extra watering of the gardens when they needed it. She sent us photos of various plants in the garden when she had questions or wanted to update us as to how the gardens were doing. The house was clean and in good condition when we got home. She told us in advance that she would be gone for a couple of days when she had other plans, which was not a problem. She coordinated well with our landscaper who was monitoring our irrigation system, and beekeeper friends of ours who came by to check on our beehives (we have no pets). Brook was a very good communicator before, during, and after her stay here. For example, she notified us when she spotted a deer in our back yard eating the kale in our garden, which we appreciated, because we were able to ask our landscaper to put up a deer fence while we were gone.

Veronica

Veronica did a great job on a two week sit for me. Responsible, clean, self-sufficient, good with the pets. She was also very flexible when I came back home for one night mid trip. I would definitely ask her to sit again.

Kelsey

Kelsey was a gem! She kept wonderful care of our house and pets for weeks, even sent us pictures of the pets to assure us they were doing well.

Pippa

Pippa and Dick are excellent hosts. Communication before and during the sit was friendly and helpful and we were given a warm welcome. Their lovely home is in a wonderful location on the edge of Dartmoor with great walks on the doorstep and a good local pub just up the road. 
Delphi was such an affectionate old dog, he won our hearts very early on in the sit. 
If you're looking for a sit in a beautiful, rural location this one is highly recommended.

Amy

Had such a good time sitting Bowline! She's a super fun, easy dog–lots of playing ball, walks around town, hikes on the trails, and licks. Amy's home is comfortable and well-appointed, and Idaho Springs is a great little town, especially if the outdoors is your thing. Great communication pre-sit, and Amy left an awesome list of instructions for Bowline that included restaurant, trail, and shopping recommendations (the locally-made soap store and art gallery were awesome). Can't wait to go back!

hazel bothma

Hazel was really welcoming, I absolutely love their beautiful cozy home and Sonny and Tilly were so sweet and cuddly. Perfect home away from home😊

Elena & Ted

Juni, Ruby, and Winston were great company for my stay in Portland. There are plenty of off leash parks, hikes, and great walking neighborhoods. I had a fun time hanging out with them. Ruby is a snuggle bug who can jump super high it’s very impressive. Juni is a sweet shadow that wants all the pets. Winston is an adorable little fluff that tilts his head when you talk to him. They all love physical affection! Elena and Ted were more than kind, generous, and were great hosts!

Ian

This was the perfect sit for us; we loved looking after Devo - she's extremely affectionate and always amusing and Ian is a super top guy with loads of similar interests who put us at ease immediately and has since become a friend. We genuinely can't wait to be back; we loved this experience.

Joe

I had a lovely quick stay with Spyro who was very cute and super easy to look after! Joe was great with communication and their Walthamstow home is very comfortable and close to nature, with a dedicated guest bedroom and en suite too. I would definitely recommend this sit and thank your for having me :)
