Cat Sitters in Oceanside, CA

Kimberly & Jordan

Kimberly and Jordan were impeccable! They took wonderful care of my home, leaving it just as clean as when they arrived. They adored my cats and cared for them expertly. Kimberly kept me updated on how the cats were doing and was communicative during my whole trip. When I arrived back home, the cats were completely content as if they didn't miss me at all. I would definitely have Kimberly and Jordan as housesitters again whenever they are back in Colorado!

Stacie

Stacie and Peter were the MOST lovely house sitters we've had. They are such kind and interesting people and we got a good vibe from them right away. We totally trusted them in our home and with caring for our furry son, Louis- who is a little high maintenance so really needs the right fit when it comes to caretakers. The house was spotless when we got back, Louis was happy and rested (he didn't even seem that excited to see us haha), and we appreciated the regular contact that Stacie offered. We hope to have them back ASAP! Stacie and Peter are wonderful, you won't regret choosing them!

Simone

We appreciated having Simone and Tom stay with our kitty! Simone was a great communicator, kind, conscientious. They even took initiative on a couple of things that needed doing the home. That was so nice! Thank you!!

Windy

Windy was so loving to my cats. She made sure to send lots of pics and videos of my cats and located them so I know they’re all ok. My home was as I left it and my cats were safe and happy. I did not worry and stress like I usually do when I’m away. She reassured me of their safety and comfort. She also stayed a little longer when my flight got canceled and checked in when she had to leave. Will use her again. I definitely trust her with my home and my babies.

Mark

Mark was great! Nice guy. He was able to come by one day before our sit started and he arrived early but waited patiently while I finished up a work call. The animals (cat and dog) warmed up to him right away. You can tell he genuinely loves animals. He listened to my instructions, checked in when he arrived and before he departed. He communicated with me throughout the stay, which I appreciate. The pets were happy when we returned and the house was clean. Thank you Mark! We’d be happy to have you back!

Alyssa

She came a few days before she dog sat to meet the pups and understand where everything was. She provided me pictures of the pups and let me know how they were doing. She was very tidy picking up after herself, taking out the trash, and striping the sheets from the bed she slept on. I would highly recommend her to dog sit and hope she can come back again.

Patricia & David

I can’t say enough good things about Patricia and David! We didn’t actually meet or interact with David but Patricia was an absolute dream to communicate with and have as our sitter. She took great care of our pets with many walks and very regular photo check ins. They left our home immaculate and cared for our plants. I forgot a few articles of clothing for the wedding I was attending and Patricia even found what I was missing and set it out for a friend to pick up. They are the petsitters we dream of! Can’t recommend them highly enough for all of your pet needs.

David

David and Ally were amazing guests. They took great care of our cat and chickens. They went the extra mile to take care of our plants during the recent heat wave. We returned to a more meticulously cleaned place than when we left it (after a $200 cleaner)! Can't recommend any better couple!

Akash

Akash was amazing! He was very detail oriented with Willie’s routine and sent me daily updates. I returned to a very clean apt and a very happy pup. Would highly recommend!

Kress

Kress was the perfect guest! He was easy to communicate with, super friendly, and it’s easy to see that he cares deeply for animals. I think my dog is sad that Kress is gone now! Kress took great care of our house and left it spotless upon our return. He is also such a genuinely nice guy. I highly recommend him as a zeewoi!

Lori & Joe

Lori and Jose were very experienced and organised. Which made me feel really confortable about leaving. Especially about the horses, with one of them being ill and needing medication. I definitely will ask them back

Yuki

Yuki was great with our guinea pigs and kitties! She has a great energy and is a good communicator, all of which meant we could relax on our vacation knowing our house and menagerie were in good hands.

Chris

Crystal was wonderful.  She came on such short notice and did a fabulous job taking care of Autumn.  Interestingly she asked some questions that no one else had ever asked before like where was my fuse box and what is the name of the 24 hour vet in case of emergency.    I was impressed with her thoroughness.

My flight left the day before she arrived but she came as scheduled the next day.  We communicated often and she sent photo's of our cat during the week.   I felt confident that my home and cherished cat were in good hands.

When we returned, I was able to meet Crystal.   She told me about her week and included a few facts about Autumn that I was unaware of - like what type of food she prefers.  

My home was spotless & clean.  Autumn was sleeping peacefully.   All perfect!  I highly recommend Crystal!

It was not Shavon, it was Kinsey, her daughter.
