Cat Sitters in Palm Springs, CA

Kaz & Jim

Kaz and Jim were the absolute number one housesitters and I will not be able to say enough with words! Very communicative, and followed every direction precisely, left our house spotlessly clean, even painted some special rocks as gifts for us and the dogs! Their kind and gentle personalities were so easy to click with and if you are lucky enough to have them sit for you, you will know exactly how I feel right now! I know our dogs miss them very much and we are so grateful to have had them watch our pets while we were gone for a month

marla

Marla is a dream cat sitter. She asked all the pertinent questions about my cats care which made me feel comfortable that Lil was in good hands. Marla left my home spotless. She kept in touch regularly. A bonus - Marla watered my plants especially during the heat wave so I came home to a thriving patio. I would definitely ask Marla back again.

Jessica & Kelton

Jessica and Kelton are ideal pet and house sitters. They communicated promptly from the beginning of our interview process and throughout our vacation. Our two dogs were well cared for, and it absolutely ensured our peace of mind while we were away for three weeks. Upon returning home, the house was found exceptionally clean, probably cleaner than we had left it! They even offered to grocery shop us before our return. Their thoughtfulness stood out throughout the entire pet-sitting period. We are looking forward to having them back on our next adventure away!

Cora

I would recommend Corey to anyone. My house was left nearer than to start without, and finally my pets suffered no separation anxiety whatsoever. I would trust her with any animal, house, (or human, so be it!). You can feel completely at peace that your animals are with a true pet lover — which was true even with my extremely shy and finicky 15 year old cat! I could not recommend Corey enough.

Akasia

Akasia is a clear and effective communicator. She kept in touch and responded quickly to arrange the details of the sits and have any questions addressed. Our dog Gus liked her and was taken excellent care of. The house was clean and neat when we arrived home. I would be happy to work with her again!

Tara

Tara beautifully managed quite an unusual situation while pet-sitting for Pang-Zi and Charlotte.... she handled pet-care during a hurricane!!!! And she did a great job. We are so thankful! Tara managed to bundle up herself and our two cats and find a pet-friendly hotel inland from Cedar Key during Hurricane Debby. She handled the whole situation professionally and with excellent communication. If you are looking for a pet-sitter who can handle any event, you won't go wrong with Tara. We are forever grateful!

Adeline & Tristan

Adeline & Tristan we’re ideal sitters! They were communicative, kind, and very clean. They left my little creatures thriving and my home spotless. Would absolutely recommend inviting them to sit for you!

Robyn

Robyn & Susan asked very good questions in advance of the sit to ensure that they were prepared. They arrived the day before to have time with Darby while I was home to give my pet time to adjust. Darby was very anxious while I was away. Robyn & Susan were very patient with her and took great care of her.

Portia Caroline

Portia was the first sitter trying Zeewoi and we were blown away. She had great communication with us and frequently sent pics of Zeke! Our house was spotless and bedding/towels all cleaned! Portia is warm and personable and hope to have her again- so says Zeke too- woof!

Catherine

We are extremely grateful that Catherine was able to help us out literally at the last minute, when we had already left home and were on the road, when another pet sitter unfortunately left us with no coverage (due to a back injury) She was super flexible and easy to work with. She kept us regularly updated with reports and pictures of Roxy and asked appropriate questions when she wasn't sure about something. My one disappointment was that I felt that the house was not as clean as I would have liked/expected when I came home (however - it would be fair to point out that Catherine did arrive 4 days after our departure, and I can't be 100% certain on how things were when she arrived)

Jody & John

Jody and John are the best! I feel so lucky to have them stay at my home. I received updates on my cat looking very pleased to have her there. And when I came home my house, it was spotless. I highly recommend them, they are welcomed back anytime!

Susan

Susan was fantastic! Very friendly and a wonderful communicator. She was very attentive and in tune with my special border collie, Magoo. He had plenty of exercise and love while I was gone. When I came home the house was immaculate! Susan was great, I trust and strongly recommend her!

Sam

It was a pleasure to host Leslie in our home and leave Pippin in her care! We loved meeting her and immediately knew that our pup was in safe hands. Her communication with us throughout was impeccable and courteous - she even offered to change her onward travel to account for our delayed flight home. Pippin clearly loved spending time with her too, so we're having to raise our game! We'd love to welcome her here again.

Alison

Amber was a perfect sitter for this sit to take care of our house, cat, and dog. We met up with Amber ahead of our trip to give a tour of the house and to meet the pets which was a nice way to get to know each other. We even had to delay our trip start by a day because of delayed flights and Amber was extremely flexible to accommodate the change. During the sit was a breeze, no issues came up and we received multiple photos, videos, and updates on the pets a day which gave us a lot of peace of mind. Our vegetable garden was well taken care of and watered regularly so much so that we came home to a bounty of veggies! She was clean and organized and took care of our pets as if they were her own. Upon return she was in quick communication and again was flexible with flight changes. We appreciate the status check on how she left the house and the pets and we’re grateful that everything was so clean and tidy and our dog had already been on his walk so we could just relax when we got home. Overall, fantastic sit and would highly recommend Amber!
