Cat Sitters in El Dorado Hills, CA

Ian

fantastic, caring sitters. I was very impressed! Ian and Gina looked after my property and 2 Old English sheep dogs for a full month in December 2016. Everything ran very smoothly. Communication, dogs walked & washed and house was immaculate on my arrival. 10/10 2

Sarah

Sarah and Ian were great house and pet sitters. They came a day early to review how to give Mimi, our cat, her insulin shot and how to take care of our plants. They were attentive and respectful of our shy cat. We could tell they are cat people. They left the house sparkling. “We hope they can come again in the future!” says Mimi! 😻

Mary

Mary is a good communicator and reconfirmed the pet sit in advance. She had a very good relationship with our dog Skye and took excellent care of her. Mary kept in good contact with me to take care of small details (like when we forgot to tell her where we kept the leash!). Mary left everything sparkling clean. She showed up as planned and stayed until we returned. Highly recommended; trustworthy. Mary is truly a delight and a very capable person.

Scott

Scott is a dream. Not only did he take great care of our cats and bearded dragon, but he was respectful, responsive, and extremely responsible. He even unboxed some perishables that arrived in the mail and put them in the fridge, as well as washing the sheets and making the bed up for us after his stay. Couldn't recommend him more highly.

Natalie

Natalie was phenomenal from taking care of Baylee to coming back home to a super clean house! She was great at providing daily check-ins and didn’t need anything once the start began. Natalie also was very considerate and came early so that I could walk her through my home and routine with Baylee to ensure there was no questions before I left. Overall, I’m so glad I went with Natalie and you will be too!

Sandra

My rescue dog is still extremely shy and doesn't interact with other people yet. Sandra seemed to understand that and took care to follow my pup's lead. She took good care of the house, too.

Jill & Michael

Jill was responsive right from the start. Great communication via email/text. Showed up on time, took great care of my cat, provided daily pics that we had agreed on. My home was as clean or cleaner than when I left it. A good sit.

Erin

Erin and Isaac took great care of my home and were super accommodating when I asked them if they’d be able to make a slight date change. Erin let me know once they’d arrived and sent a picture of her settling in with Zooey and left the house exactly as they’d found it - thank you Erin and Isaac!

OLENA

Elena took very good care of my home and Daisy. This sit was on short notice and I was fortunate that Elena could accommodate me. I’d be happy to have her sit again.

Morning

It was very nice to meet Morning. She was extremely easy and pleasant to deal with. All worked smoothly and I would be very pleased to welcome her again if she is ever passing by!

Diana

Diana and Frank were great sitters for our two pups while we were away. The dogs warmed up to them instantly. The pictures of their walks was reassuring as we traveled and upon our return the house was clean and well kept. We hope they consider returning in the future. Thank you!

Delna & Vince

Awesome stay! Very communicative and left the house immaculate. We really appreciate how well our hounds were tended to, as well! See you next time 😎

Jacob

We can't rate Ollie and Madeline highly enough! They took amazing care of our dog and our home while we went away for 2.5 weeks for our honeymoon. 

They're both very calm and easy-going people who have great communication and love looking after animals. They clearly formed a strong bond with our dog - she was very happy and well looked after. She also clearly misses them a lot as she has been looking in the garden for them! We also came home to a perfectly clean home and some homemade food, which was much appreciated after such a long flight.

I would invite them to sit for us again in a heartbeat.

Sarah

What a wonderful housesitter Luis is. Luis left our house  clean and tidy.

Luis was extremely communicative sending me daily videos of the beagles on their morning walks and photos showing the boys relaxing with him. I was a little concerned as the day before we left, Tube had a skin infection on his tail and required medication to be applied to that, as well as tablets and eye drops 3 times a day! Luis took it all in his stride and made me feel so comfortable leaving the boys with him. 

Thank you so much for taking such good care of our dogs and house (and plants inside and out). We highly recommend Luis to any future home and animal owners.
