Cat Sitters in Vacation Beach, CA

Victoria

Victoria stayed at our house for almost 3 weeks while we travelled in Europe. She came a day early to meet the kitty and make sure she had all the info she needed. In addition to pet sitting, I asked her to water my indoor and outdoor plants. My garden looked great and the house was spotless when we arrived home. I got regular texts and messages complete with pictures and even got a couple of videos. My kitty was happy, healthy and was obviously well cared for. I would not hesitate to have Victoria as a zeewoi again.

Kashy

Kashy was great in every way. He took our dog Boo for long walks and handled all challenges like an experienced dog owner. He sent us daily pictures and videos that kept us in touch with Boo. He left our home just as he found it. He is a great person to get to know and we look forward to seeing him again.

Heidi

Thank you Heidi for watching our home and our kitty Sweetie. We came home to a spotless house and a happy cat! I wholeheartedly recommend Heidi to everyone! ❤️

Craig

Craig was our sitter for 17 nights and left our home in great shape. Our cats are independent in and out boys but upon arriving home last night two of them were in the house and looked healthy and happy. Craig had even purchased a new grooming glove for our long haired boy. We really appreciated his communication and the plants all looked well taken care of also. We would definitely recommend Craig as a sitter.

Mia

I am so thrilled that Mia made a return visit to be with Buster, and he was even more excited! Mia is kind, communicative, responsible and super loving with Buster. He was very excited to be with her and she stayed in close touch with me during the visit. The house was tidy and bed was already stripped when I came home. So great to come home to a clean home and a happy, healthy pup. Thank you, Mia!

Amy

It was such a pleasure having Amy care for my home and pets while I was out of the country. She has such a calm and friendly demeanor and communication was easy. My senior dog had teeth pulled just days before my departure and needed a little extra care with her food. I felt confident leaving her in Amy’s care. Amy took excellent care of my home and pets. I can definitely recommend her and would love to have her back anytime.

Brooke

Brooke was a very responsible sitter. She bonded with our 2 cats and took great care of them. The house was left clean and tidy and she followed all instructions. I highly recommend Brooke and look forward to using her on another sit.

Nathan

Nathan and Angela are great. We had them come again to watch our animals and they’ve always been respectful, clean, reliable, and trustworthy.

Rachel

Rachel was an excellent pet sitter for my cat. She was a good communicator and also kept my place very tidy. She even left me a gift of a bar of chocolate upon her departure! Highly recommend.

Robin

Hello, Robin seemed to be a sensitive, loving cat sitter who was conscientious that all our cats were thriving. We got regular reports that they were doing well. The house was left in perfect condition. Thank you Robin!

Hannah

Hannah was top notch! Where do I begin? I’ll begin with the fact that she jumped into caregiver mode when our cat swallowed a huge piece of grass and had to go to pet emergency for surgery. 😮‍💨 Hannah was amazing! So caring and responsive. She called the veterinarian and ultimately the pet hospital, consulting and keeping us in the loop the whole time! She ended up spending a good 24 hours dealing with this emergency and kitty was ok. After this we consulted on ways to prevent this from happening again and decided to try to keep him inside. Hannah showed a tremendous amount of patience as she put up with him howling to go out continuously. She made efforts to ease this transition by buying fancy toys to try to distract and keep him entertained. In the end we decided to let him out for short periods of time to satisfy his need for exploration and exercise. Hannah never did anything w/o communicating with us and she was kind and patient throughout! She developed a close bond with our cat, and after this unfortunate crisis, things settled down and she was able to enjoy nightly cuddles with the cat. In addition, Hannah cared for all of our outdoor and indoor plants, took in mail, took out garbage and even mailed a few things for us! I highly recommend Hannah for any future house/pet sitting! She is responsible, easy going, flexible and trustworthy!!

Carole

Goya loved hanging out with Carole, Deb and Persie and we so appreciate them for taking care of the house and the dog in our absence. We highly recommend them!

Gregory

Just the perfect housesitter. Liliana was happy to stay, loved our cats and left the flat completely spotless. I couldn't have asked for more!

Shalee

Maggie is such a sweetheart and I instantly felt a calming and warm presence the minute she walked into the house. She has such a kind heart and a deep compassion for all animals…. especially active ones like Graycee :) Your animals will be in good hands if you are lucky enough to have her sit for you! Graycee and I both felt an instant connection/bond within minutes of meeting her. I feel fortunate that she wanted to stay at the house and take care of Graycee and can’t say enough great things about her and really appreciated her help! Not to mention I now have a new friend who has traveled all over and can recommend cool places to see! She is always welcome at my house and can’t wait for Graycee to see her again soon! 

One last thing…. we had quite a bit of snow in Denver during her stay but that didn’t stop Maggie from wanting to take Graycee to the dog park every day! She had so much fun with Graycee and it made me happy while gone knowing how much she cared about her. She is amazing! It was freezing but that didn’t matter, what mattered was Graycee having some fun and getting some exercise. 

Maggie gets 10 stars in my book and Graycee and I hope to see her again soon! You won’t be disappointed, she is everything and more you could ever hope for when leaving your pets while away. Thank you Maggie!!
