Rose
Rose and mark were fantastic. Very professional and caring sitters. I never felt that I needed to worry about anything. They left my home in the condition as if they had never been there. I, absolutely couldn't have been more impressed and pleased.

Annie
Annie sat for our cat, Tuna, over a long weekend. She was extremely kind and self-sufficient. When we arrived home, Tuna was relaxed and happy and our apartment was as clean and tidy as we had left it. Annie would be welcome to sit for us again any time, we'd highly recommend her.

Jordan
I could not have asked for a better first experience with zeewoi! Jordan and Nataki were great at communicating from the very start, and they sent me pictures and updates every day. I didn’t have to worry for a moment that my cat Anya was feeling lonely because I could tell she warmed up right away, even though she’s usually quite shy! They also went above and beyond making sure my apartment was tidy for when I got home. So grateful and would definitely be honored for them to sit for me again any time!

Francesco
Francesco has been taking care of my furry babies and my place while I'm away for well over a year now, and I couldn't appreciate him more. He is a joy to communicate with, and the most reliable person one could hope for. Being able to count on him while I'm traveling makes a world of difference, because I know I don't need to worry about anything while I'm away. Benny and Zumba love him and are very well taken care of. I know because I come home to two very relaxed and happy kitties. I am super grateful to have found Francesco!

Everything was great even though they were here for some unfortunate circumstances (hurricane and extended power outage). Sent frequent updates and our cat seemed to like them.

Hannah
Hannah and Joseph were so kind, so communicative, and clean! Kevin seemed so happy in all the photos they sent. Not only did they wash my sheets and towels they used (without my requesting it, simply out of the kindness of their hearts), they ALSO then put my fresh sheets on the bed! 🥹❤️ Such incredible sitters. 10 stars!

Misti
Misti was wonderful! She was able to come by before I left town to meet my dog, Grace, which I really appreciated. She sent daily pics or videos and made sure that Grace got tons of snuggle time, which is a major requirement to keep my dog happy :) Cats and skateboards are evil enemies to Grace and it sounds like Misti experienced both and handled it flawlessly! Misti was a great communicator, left everything tidy for me when I got home and Grace was super mellow and relaxed, which tells me she got all the care she needed while I was gone. I highly recommend Misti - I'll definitely be asking her to sit again!

Lilly
Lilly and Thomas stayed at our house and cared for our dogs for a month. I think they took the dogs to the beach nearly every day. Seeing pictures of our dogs on the beach made our time away from them feel so much better. Our house was immaculate when we returned, and we felt so fortunate to have such kind and loving people step in for us in our absence. Anyone would be super lucky to have them in their home.

Gwynn
Gwynn was wonderful! She was super communicative, flexible to come to our house beforehand to get oriented, and attentive to details. She connected with our pup, Scout, immediately and we felt so assured that he would be well cared for with her. We hope Gwynn can come stay again another time!

Courtenay
I was thrilled to have Courtenay as our sitter. We had a few last minute changes and she was very accommodating. She is a very pleasant, well spoken person who bonded very quickly with our dog, Pepe. We were in Europe and Courtenay keep us we’ll informed via internet, pictures and all. We came home to a clean house, a happy pet and a delicious pie she left for us in the refrigerator. You would be very pleased to have her as your sitter. Lucy Hottle

Wendy
Wendy was great, she kept us updated on the dogs and all the fun she had hiking with them on the mountain. I returned home to a very tidy house. My dogs just loved her. I will definitely have Wendy sit for me again and would be very lucky to have her do a sit for you.

Julian
Julian and Susan were amazing, we came home to happy healthy creatures and a clean, tidy home and yard. They communicated with us during our vacation, both about anything unusual and just to let us know when things were going well (as they were the majority of the time). They are very adaptable and capable people, I highly recommend them for your home and pet needs.

Wendy
Lani is an excellent Pet Sitter and housesitter. Communication was easy, our pet Cleo appreciated her loving care. We came home to a relaxed and happy cat. I would happily ask Lani to housesit again.
Barrett
Caitlyn, KJ, and their pup Sully were excellent house guests and pet sitters, and we would highly recommend them! I was able to meet Caitlyn and KJ prior to them house sitting for us, and we are always super appreciative when sitters are able to make that work and are willing to take time out of their schedule to come over and get the lay of the land. Their dog Sully was full of good boy energy and was a great playmate for our two Golden Retrievers. During the stay, Caitlyn & KJ sent us photos every day and followed all of our instructions for pet care to a T. They were super self-sufficient and gracious guests that left our place looking just like it did when we left, and we were very at peace knowing that our dogs were in great hands, getting lots of exercise, and romping around with new friend Sully. Don't hesitate to book this family of three, your house and your pets will be well-looked after!
Allison
Megan was the perfect house sitter - got lots of updates and pics of my kitty, communicated well, was flexible and left the place spotless! Would definitely ask her to pet sit again!
Samantha and Dan
Kelly and Chris are lovely people and we loved having them at the house! They were very engaged from the start, asking questions and wanting to know all the details on our pets. We were completely comfortable going away and didn’t worry during our trip knowing our kiddos were in such great hands. K & C gave us pics & updates as requested, and we loved seeing our pets have such a good time with them! They left the house in as good or better shake as it was found, laundering and folding linens and tidying up so well we could hardly tell they stayed here! They were communicative before the sit, during, and after. Kelly and Chris were the ideal sitters in every way. We’d welcome them back anytime and highly recommend them to others. Thanks you two!
Suzanne
Initially, I was very nervous about finding my very first in-home pet sitter who could provide the level of care and attention our 3 beloved fur-kids required. From the moment Emily and Johnny stepped into our home, I knew they were going to be in good hands. Their gentle demeanor and genuine love for animals instantly put our dogs Gypsy & Johnny at ease. Emily and Johnny took the time to understand our pets’ unique personalities and preferences, ensuring that their every need would be met. During our absence, Emily provided us with regular updates and adorable photos. Their detailed communication gave me peace of mind, knowing that my fur babies were in the best possible hands. Upon our return, we were greeted by a happy and contented gang, who clearly had enjoyed their time with Emily and Johnny. Emily and Johnny are more than just pet sitters; they are true companions to our furry family. Their exceptional care, genuine love for animals, and unwavering dedication have earned them a permanent spot in our hearts. Without hesitation, we give Emily and Johnny a 5-star rating and highly recommend their services to anyone seeking trustworthy and loving caregivers for their beloved pets. THANK YOU Emily and Johnny!!! <3

I enjoyed meeting Samara. Sosha arrived after I left so we only communicated in writing. Samara is a sweet, considerate pet sitter. She brought her cat, who posed no difficulties to my pets. Samara was in good communication with me during her stay. She used my car without incident. My home was left much cleaner than upon her arrival. Samara proved to be an honest and responsible pet sitter and I would open my home to her at any time in the future.
Evelyn & Jeff
Carolina was a fantastic Pet sitter. From the beginning, it was straightforward to communicate with her. She met us before we left our trip and ensured she understood all the house and pet logistics. Luna and Cal were very comfortable with her and were best friends with her fast. She was very affectionate with them, and Luna and Cal loved her and were very happy with her. Carolina was very responsive and sent updates. She was really lovely and easy to communicate with. She was very respectful of our space and very tidy. She even washed the sheets and towels she used even when she didn’t need to. She put a lot of care into caring for Luna and Cal, and they looked very comfortable with her. Having Carolina as a pet sitter made our trip very easy, knowing our pets were cared for so well. We would love to have her back to sit for us again and highly recommend her.
Dominique
Ce was an amazing house sitter for our best bud Atlas. She not only took amazing care of our needy pup, she took great care of the home as well. I honestly think she left it cleaner than I left it for her! We certainly hope she is around the next time our best friend needs a friend. If you're looking for a responsible caregiver for your pets and home - look no further!
Megan
I could not have asked for a better first time sitter experience! Terry & Vinnie were absolutely wonderful people. They took stellar care of my beloved pets and my home. Their communication with me was enough that I felt perfectly at ease during my time away and in turn, they were super responsive if I contacted them. My pets were relaxed and happy when I returned!
Shelley
Absolutely Incredible.... I will not lie, I was hesitant because David did not have any pet sits before this one (gotta start somewhere) but because he did the background check I decided to contact him. We had a great phone conversation and the decision was made. He came to my house the night before I was leaving to learn all the ins and outs of taking care of my fur babies and then put himself up in a hotel for the night before the sit date. The next day he came over in the morning to learn a few more details before I left. I could not have chosen a better house sitter for my 2nd house sit . David communicated with me daily, sent pictures and we spoke via facetime. My little guy was feeling sick when David started and with diligence, love and kindness he was able to get my little guy eating again and feeling better. I would invite David back into my home over and over again but I am pretty sure he is going to be in high demand. Thank you David for everything!

Our experience with CV Pets was truly exceptional, thanks to Dianne, who provided outstanding care for our four dogs, including two seniors that required extra attention and love. Her dedication and compassion made our vacation so much more enjoyable, as we could relax knowing our beloved pups were in such capable hands. Upon returning home, we were greeted by happy, healthy dogs, a testament to the wonderful job Dianne did in looking after them.
We have relied on Jennifer, Caren, and the entire team at CV Pets to take care of our two little guys for almost two years now. Whether we are away for a weekend or a long vacation, we always have peace of mind knowing they check in on them. They are reliable, trustworthy, and experienced. And I appreciate the updates after each visit and photos so I know how they are doing.
Janine took wonderful care of my fur baby while i couldn't walk her, training her and coming early in the day to avoid the heat. She was a great friend to my dog and I.
I was very anxious to find someone reliable to take care of my cat Leo while I was out of town, and I am so grateful I found CV Pets! Jennifer and her team were so communicative from day 1, making me feel like they cared about Leo just as much as I did. The daily visit updates with photos just made my day! I am so thankful to have found them, and I truly find myself at ease now when thinking about taking another vacation because I know they will be there help. I highly recommend them to all pet parents in the desert! :)
Jen is an amazing person and animal lover. She is not only a wonderful caretaker but also a highly knowledgeable trainer. She goes above and beyond!!! Words that come to mind to describe Jen: devotion, reliability, efficiency, trustworthy. Call her, you won’t regret it.
We have a 17, 7, and 1 year old. And over the years we have had the opportunity to use various teams in support of our pups when we are not at home or traveling. None of them compare to CV Pets through Jennifer and her team. We have been using them for over a year now. They are so attentive and loving to our dogs, but also so very respectful of our home. I believe anyone will be as pleased as we have been. Thank you CV Pets !!!!!
Update: whenever I travel to the area now I have moved I bring one of my four dogs with me. Since I am traveling for work Jen and her team always are where my beagle daisy goes. Jen is responsible, on time and provide excellent service! Jen has walked my dogs many time’s and has even house sat for them. She is a wonderful reliable and responsible pet caregiver. The dogs are her life and cats as well. It can get hot out here in the desert one day it was 120 degrees she wouldn’t take them out. Instead she used wee wee pads abs gave them extra ice water. And made sure they were cool. I appreciate the extra effort. Recently my fiancé and I travelled from Pennsylvania to visit friends in Coachella Valley. Our dogs Lucy and blackjack stayed with Jen and they were great
Jen & her associates are my go-to folks, we are so lucky to have them taking care of our furry family. We use them for pet sitting services. They come by twice a day promptly, stay for a while, and take great care of our big Mastiff - who can sometimes be a challenge. But her gang has a handle on even our complicated circumstances! We have also used her housesitting services, they left the house immaculately clean. Jen is organized and efficient knowledgeable and on top of it! I’m a veterinarian so I’m pretty picky about who interacts with our dogs, they are awesome!
Jennifer always let me know exactly when she would arrive, took excellent care of my dogs, was very reliable. It was apparent that she truly loves dogs. And the dogs loved here. Got to the point they’d recognize her car pulling up and be ready to run to her. I’d recommend CV Pets anytime!
Jennifer walks our miniature schnauzer three to four times a week. Our dog loves her and Jennifer clearly loves him. She is very trustworthy and she does a great job of letting us know how the walk went. Our dog is 14 and she does a great job of being sensitive to his capabilities. I would highly recommend CV Pets.

Madiisyn is fantastic for the pet and the owners. She a rare professional that cares, on time and completely trustworthy. When in Coachella my doggie demands that we use Sit, Stay, Relax! I 100% agree!!!
Madyson is terrific! My 10 year old labradoodle is so relaxed when she comes to stay. Lucca is very calm due to her personality and attention to his well being. I never worry about Madyson...my last trip away the power went off in my house...she figured out how to reset everything, and keep his environment normal. She provides me the ability to enjoy my vacations as well knowing my buddy is so happy. She is a 6 out of 5!
I would highly recommend sit, stay, relax! I have used her services multiple times and have a few more trips upcoming. Madisyn has taken wonderful care of my dog and kitten, they always seem happy to see her. She is a warm, caring, responsible person. I have referred her to others who have also had great experiences. Communication is excellent with updates and photos always coming. My house is always immaculate when I return. It is hard to leave my animals at home when I travel but I am confident that they are well taken care of. Her service is stellar!
We have used Madisyn a couple of times and both went great. First time she stayed at our place to look after Sutton, second time he stayed at her place with her two dogs cause they all get along great and had a blast. We had a bad dog sitting experience a few years ago and she renewed our faith in dog sitters! We have already booked her for a few more jobs and look forward to continuing. She loves pets and you can tell! Highly recommend. Dave and Georgia and Sutton Palm Desert, CA
Madysin is absolutely the best cat sitter I have ever encountered in my 17 years of owning cats. The thought of leaving our beloved senior cat with a sitter has always filled me with anxiety, uncertain if they would be equipped to handle any situation that may arise. However, Madysin's exceptional professional background as a vet tech, coupled with her gentle and affectionate approach, has instilled in me complete confidence and peace of mind when entrusting our cat with her during our vacations and work trips. I wholeheartedly recommend her services without reservation.
From the moment we met Madisyn I knew we found our dog sitter. We had some horrible experiences with past dog sitters so were skeptical at first but she proved within seconds that she was reliable and loving towards them, just an automatic ease. Her background as a tech, quick responses in text, and sending us pictures and videos allowed us to enjoy being away rather than be constantly worried about what was happening at home. She is a 5+ star of a human and dog sitter!
Exceptional service! Without a doubt Madisyn will provide your pet with detailed and loving care. My cat Cali loves Madisyn! As someone with 2 Desert tortoises who require specialized care and attention I can have peace of mind knowing she is knowledgeable in reptile care. When I’m gone she always makes sure to communicate with me every detail of her visit with my pets. Highly recommend!!
I’m so glad I found Madison! She has been critical in taking care of my fur baby and in a pinch she always makes time for us. She treats my dog like her own. I have had her do drop ins, walks, and stay at my home and have been very happy with all her services.
Luna and Koda love Madi💕💕💕 She takes excellent care of them! She always goes above and beyond😊 I definitely recommend her!! Dog walks and overnights. …
