Pet Sitters in Piru, CA

Sean

Seàn was an amazing pet and house sitter! He was super communicative and took amazing care of my dog Nala and cat Bruce. They were happy and loved while I was away- I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for the two little fur babies! He sent great pictures and checked in every day so I had nothing to worry about. On top of all that, he also kept my place immaculately clean and left my place in wonderful shape. We can’t wait to have him back to sit and I would highly recommend him to anyone and everyone looking for a sitter!

Jessica

Jessica was super communicative when she stayed at our house for a 3-day weekend to watch our cat, Louie. When we came home, we could tell Louie was happy and well taken care of!

Claire

Claire was a terrific pet and house sitter while we were away for almost 3 weeks. She kept in touch with us, sent pictures of the fur babies, and didn't hesitate to ask questions if needed. We so appreciated her being patient with one of our dogs that took a while to warm up. She also did a great job of managing getting the cats inside at night, watering plants as requested, and a few other household tasks. When we got home, we could tell the house had been well taken care of and that the pets were happy! I would definitely hire Claire again and recommend her to others. Thank you Claire!

Erin

Erin and her sweet dog Lincoln were wonderful sitters!! We have a puppy and a senior dog, so she had her hands full, but didn't skip a beat! The 3 dogs were great together, and she took them on great walks and adventures. She sent us videos and pics every day, and the house was immaculate upon our return. Our dogs definitely miss Erin and Lincoln, and we would love to have them back someday! Can not recommend her highly enough!

Renee

We had a great experience with Renee watching our two high energy dogs and two cats.

Lissette & Nash

Lisette & Nash are awesome! They took great care of my pup. My dog was a tired pup when I got home and sent many photos of their adventures. They also left my place spotless. I would highly recommend these 2, thank you both for everything.

Erika

Erika was a great caretaker for Harper, incredibly attentive to her and her needs. Would recommend her, and look to have her care for Harper anytime

Theresa

Theresa was great! Friendly, communicative and clean. Would happily have Theresa cat sit for Zen again. :)

Sonia

Sonia and her partner are so good with our boys! And they are not always easy since one is a senior needing special care and the other doesn’t like us leaving. But Sonia was so good and attentive and really treated them like family and were sensitive to their needs. I’m hope Sonia can sit for us again! Top notch!

Kiki

Kiki and Tomas were great! Arrived and got in without issue, and sent daily updates of Pixel our way without missing a day. They also kept the house tidy upon leaving and were completely self-sufficient. Our cat was especially loved and extra fluffy from their brushing sessions with him. Would highly recommend them as future housesitters :)

Haley

Haley watched our dog and cat for 5 days while we were away. She was communicative leading up to the trip and sent us great picture updates throughout. She left the place just as we left it and even washed the sheets for us. Most importantly, she took good care of our little pets.

Abhijit

We appreciate AJ’s daily communication and photos of Charlie, taking in our mail and leaving the apartment clean and tidy upon our return. However, there was a concerning incident that occurred due to AJ not following explicit instructions to never allow Charlie outside without a leash and training collar. I explained this several times to AJ during both the FaceTime interview and when he came to meet Charlie a few days prior to the trip. Despite repeated instructions and discussions, AJ allowed Charlie to sit on our porch unleashed, and without the training collar. He sent me a photo of this as well. A few moments afterwards, someone walked their small dog past our home. Charlie rushed towards the dog aggressively. It sounds like thankfully he did not bite the dog, however since we returned home, we’re getting upset inquiries from angry neighbors who saw or heard the incident. I know the situation could have been worse, and it would have been due to negligence and ignoring clear instructions. Additionally, AJ mentioned that he fed Charlie more than we advised. Charlie is on a vet-supervised diet, so over feeding him is highly irresponsible.

Kirstie & Billy

Eva was amazing! She came and took over for a friend of ours who was watching our cats for the first part of our trip and it was such a seamless transition! Eva communicated well and even took care of a few snags that happened on their arrival (AC went out as soon as they arrived and they dealt with the repairman which we were so grateful for!) It's always a good sign when the cats seem to not care at all that we were even gone so we'd have her and Matt back anytime!

Sarah

I had a wonderful time hanging out with your fur babies! Sarah and David were extremely welcoming and made me feel at home during my stay. Looking forward to the next time already! Lots of love!

Emily

I have two words for this sit....love sponge! Walter is the very embodiment of love and I for one couldn't get enough of his snuggles!
The house is lovely as are Emily and Lloyd in a fabulous location a short walk away from the dandy beaches of Huntington beach.  What more could anyone ask for? 
So in closing,  of course I recommend this sit but hopefully I'll beat you to it 😊

Björg

Gaefa is the sweetest cat you’ll ever meet. She lives in a rural part of Iceland that is beautiful and peaceful. 
The only limitation is -You would need a car to get around.

Ana

Rocco has such a sweet spirit and is a gentle giant. He mostly sits in his bed for the first day or two, apart from food, but once he warms up to you he is a loyal sidekick. Rocco is very low maintenance and just wants someone he can spend time with. After our week with Rocco, we were almost in tears leaving him. He really is sweet dog and we miss him very much. The owners are great, and we loved having a welcome and goodbye drinks with them. Would recommend.

Kathryn

It was so fun taking care of Andy! He has a great personality and we got along so well. Katie and Dave's home is in a great location, it's spacious and really comfortable ~ my favorite part of my stay (other than hanging with Andy) was getting to check out their record collection. Would definitely come back!

Erika

I had a great time sitting for Erika and fam, she was very communicative and helpful even from another hemisphere. Fergus is the sweetest dog and we bonded immediately, my constant companion for almost two weeks! The house is lovely and has an incredible view of Oakland and SF. Great sit :)
