Pet Sitters in Fayette, CA

Leslie & David

Leslie was very communicative and obviously an organized, reliable person. We chatted before confirming the sit and I met her and her kids on the first day of it. She and her kids are very calm, smart and I felt totally comfortable having them stay in my home while caring for my cats. She sent texts with pictures of my cats to me in Guatemala each day I was away and it was really nice. She was a better communicator than I was! I highly recommend her and hope our schedules align so that she might sit at my place again someday!

Andrea

Andrea was wonderful with our dogs. Her experience and love for animals showed from her first interactions with our dogs who can be anxious when meeting new people. She loves to hike and took our dogs on long hikes daily sending us photos of their adventures. If you have active dogs Andrea is the sitter for you, she is an avid hiker. She also gave them lots of love and snuggles at home. We returned to a clean home with happy dogs who obviously enjoyed Andrea’s company, exercise and love. We would be thrilled to have her stay again in the future.

Audrey

Look no further!!! What a wonderful couple! We started one sit with them after using this sight over 3 years but once they came for the first sit we wanted to keep them! We now have them stay in our extra cottage so they can sit for us continuously wh3n we travel. They have been with the animals ( 4 cats 4 chickens 2 dogs ), My son and I both use them as we both travel alot . He has a house in Croatia so summers he's there and I go back and forth to Italy for months at a time . Matt and Audrey are really such wonderful sitters and really easy going and very likable people. Matt has a background in construction so he's very capable If something comes up while your away he can fix it or deal with it and that's such a bonus in a pet / house sitter . They stay here with us but they still like to do other sits too and do so they are very experienced. They truly love animals and the animals love them too! They take the dogs on long hikes every day they cuddle with the cats and dogs which sleep with them while we are away. They are very responsible and always send photos and keep in good contact. They are really the best sitters we have ever had and we have had others from this sight ( which we're also good) but it was so simple with Matt and Audrey . They really fit right in ! So...abosouly if you get the chance to have them sit for you ...You and your creatures will be very happy . They also have a small, sweet cat named Abby. She she is so adorable and has no issues with any of our animals . They all hang out together and she walks on a leash with the dogs for walks.. it's hilarious! She's very easy going for a cat and has been such a sweet kitty. No issues with travel like most cats and super well trained and house broken . I must give them all the highest rating possible!!!! It so nice to travel especially for months at a time like we do and know your fur baby's are happy and cared for ! 100% steller pet sitters and enjoyable, capable,reliable people! The best!

Brian

We’ve had Brian sit for us multiple times and it’s always been great. The cats are happy, the house is clean and we get regular picture updates!

Richard

Richie was a dear! He came to meet me and the dogs before the sit and it made it a seamless transition. I hope he is back in the area again soon!

Hannah

Hanna was great to communicate with and easy going. She took great care of the cats and my house. Looking forward to having her staying in our house again!

Sarah

Sarah was easy to work with and a great communicator:)

Sidny

Sidny was a joy to have sit for us. Our furbaby was in great hands. We received many updates throughout our holiday so we were able to truly relax. The house was kept in beautiful shape. Would highly recommend Sidny.

Susan

We were SO lucky to have secured Susan to come and care for our dog, Tinsley! She is kind, personable, conscientious, and an obvious pet lover. When our departing flight changed, Even though it impacted her remote work schedule, Susan kindly accommodated that change by arriving earlier in the day than originally planned. That was so appreciated. We had ample time to go over Tinsley's routine and the workings of the house. Susan asked great questions and we left feeling totally comfortable that she was the person caring for our dog. There needed to be a hand-off of Tinsley to a friend for a few hours at the end of Susan's time at our house, and communication there went seamlessly. Susan was in touch confiming details before the sit, and communication during and even afterwards was excellent. We received much-appreciated updates and photos during our time away. We returned to an immaculate house with everything in order, and truly appreciated that. Best of all, Tinsley remained in her daily routine with loving and excellent care. She is always our priority. Pet owners would be beyond fortunate to have Susan come to care for their pets. We felt like we won the pet sitter lottery! We hope that Susan might be able to return someday, but fear that we will be competing with others who have experienced not only a great pet sitter, but a wonderful person!

Sarah

Sarah saved the day by picking up my last minute sit and was super flexible with arrival and departure times for the sit. Our pups, Meeka and Niko, did great with Sarah! Thank you so much!

Lily & Liam

Lily and Liam are phenomenal house sitters and wonderful people. They took incredible care of our dog, Koby, and sent daily pictures and videos of him living his best life. I had no worries whatsoever about Koby during our vacation, I just knew he was in the best hands. We came home to a sparkling clean house and the happiest dog ever. We would have them back any time and highly recommend them!

Mona

Mona is a fabulous and delightful housesitter in every respect. We are grateful that she spent time with our cat and in our home. She was conscientious in her care of Shadow, and introduced him and us to a petting mitt and catnip which are now enjoyed parts of his life. It was easy to know that Shadow thrived with her caring for him. She communicated thoroughly while we were away, and we returned to a house immaculately cared for. We would eagerly welcome Mona back as our housesitter and are confident that everyone working with her will be well and fully pleased.

Julie

Wow what a peaceful home! Julie and Nigel are so friendly and welcoming, and their home is spacious and has everything you could ever need. Tofu and Ziggy are sweethearts to spend time with and easy to care for. The backyard is an oasis of birdsong and local wildlife such as deer and fox (beyond the fenced in area where the dogs play). Julie and Nigel's communication was top notch. The neighborhood is quiet and nearby many shops and restaurants.

Rory

What an honor it is to have been chosen as the petsitters of Frankie and Summer. Since we were staying in the area closeby already, we met with Rory and Jane beforehand. They told us all about Frankie and Summer and later even invited us for lunch at their favorite restaurant, a real treat! They warned us for especially Summer being a little shy at first, but we found she warmed up to us pretty quickly after all. It might take some time to be able to pet her, but it is all the more rewarding when she let’s you. She is so sweet. It is so cute to watch Frankie and Summer explore the garden together, they are buddies. Frankie will let you know when he’s ready for food, for cuddles and when he thinks it’s time for you to come out of bed. So funny! You can also have a conversation with him where he will answer with his meows. 

Staying with them in their comfortable home was the best. Rory and Jane have created the perfect abode for themselves and the cats. There is even a jacuzzi in the garden which we nearly used every day. Also they provided us with lots of recommendations in the area and restaurants to try, even recommendations for our travels in Spain. So nice!

Thank you for picking us as your house sitters, we would love to come back one day, since we miss Frankie and Summer already!

Anna Katrín

Lovely time in Iceland.  The house was perfectly located  to downtown and bus lines.  And  the two animals were a delight to come home too.  Krummi was easy to walk and a great companion while Emma gave hugs and conversations when she was ready.  Although I never met the family, the communication was good and the issues that arose ( very few) were answered quickly.  I would highly recommend this house sit and visiting Reykjavik.

KHRISTOPHER

Just a quick stay at Khristopher’s  place but plenty of time to bond with  Phriday and Cinco The house has lots of character with positivity hidden through out every room . The view from the deck out back it awesome and Khris is very kind welcoming and made my  experience very pleasant and pressure free. Phriday loves to take her walks and play fetch and she very sweet and well behaved. Cinco is independent and  friendly.Thank you Khris for sharing your home and pets with me.
