Pet Sitters in Venice Beach, CA

myles

Myles was awesome! I felt fully comfortable leaving my dog in his care and he proved to be very conscientious and left my home almost as if nobody was ever here. There were some minor issues with my dog while in his care, and Myles was quick to let me know, and also make sure he kept an eye on him closely during his stay. And bonus, he kept all my potted vegetables and plants alive!Very likable and friendly and responsible! Will definitely use him again.

Sonia

Sonia was one of the best sitters we’ve ever had. She is super friendly, responsible, caring for our pet, and left the home spotless. She is welcome back anytime!

Emma

Emma was a wonderful sitter! Her communication was great, she was very self sufficient and we came home to a very happy pup and a perfectly clean house!

Suzette

Suzette was really wonderful with our pets and really thorough with her questions in terms of taking care of them and our place. We were really happy she decided to sit for us and would definitely recommend her to others. Thank you, Suzette!

Ashley

Ashley and Matt were amazing houseguests and sitters. We had them up the day prior to our leaving to give them a lay of the land and enjoyed a lovely meal with them both. We were out of town during a particularly challenging weather event (snow and ice) and were not concerned about their ability to take care of themselves in the slightest. When we returned, we quickly noticed the bond Oatmeal (our dog) had created with both Matt and Ashley--she was definitely bummed when they left! Despite the challenging weather, they made sure to get her outside and exercised, which we were grateful for. We wholeheartedly recommend Ashley and Matt, both as housesitters and pals! :)

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.

Agathe

To say Agathe was amazing is such an understatement. I came home after a week to my dog who deals with separation anxiety the happiest she has been. My home was somehow cleaner? Agathe's communication was amazing, I was constantly given pics of my dog and kept updated. I'm always amazed by this app and the wonderful people I meet but Aggy is one of the best. She is welcome in our home anytime! We are so grateful for you Aggy!

Cecilia

Ceci was Amazing! Warm and thoughtful, she did a great job managing our cat's comings and goings and left the place spotless. She is also a super talented musician and is now teaching us all piano!

Sree

They were fabulous, clear communicators and very helpful.

Antonia & Alexander

Toni and Alex were easy to communicate with and super responsible. They took excellent care of our cats, goats and chickens during a heat wave, while we were on a river trip and completely unreachable by phone. Toni and Alex managed all of the detailed instructions we'd left, and we came home to contented animals and a tidy house. Even our shy kitty was unperturbed. We'd have them sit for us again anytime. Highly recommend.

Nitzayah & Louis

Nitzayah was an amazing sitter. She left the place spotless, was flexible and responsive, and most importantly loved up on our Theo bear. Highly recommend!

Gypsy & Sander

This was our inaugural housesitting experience. Wow. Just wow. Gypsy and Sander were so gracious and treated our home as their own - even better. Our pets loved them and I honestly think they miss their new friends. They left our home spotless which was not necessary but very much appreciated after a long trip. The best thing about their sit is Clover, their absolutely adorable 2 year old. I can feel the 'cringe' now over the words 2 YEAR OLD. But little Clover was just a great child. And she was so gentle with our pets. The sit happened in December so we had LOTS of Christmas decor. Clover was mesmerized by everything but did not destroy anything and is very disciplined when her parents speak. We would absolutely love to have them again. They will be a touch act to follow.

Rachel

Lovely house, lovely pets. Very calm and happy visit. Already planned my next sit with them.

Michaela

My wife and I loved our time with Mosey and so appreciate the hospitality of Michaela and Emilio. Mosey is the best dog. A little shy and anxious at first, but so warm hearted and pleasant and loves people. We definitely got our steps in, exploring the neighborhood and nearby parks. The home is perfectly located, walkable to bus stops to and from the airport and around town, a short quarter-mile from multiple grocery stores and restaurants, and with trail access galore. I hope to stay again in the future!

Martha

House sitting for Martha, Ralph, and Emmacat was a wonderful experience!

Martha was very communicative and left perfectly detailed instructions for us. She is very welcoming and kind, and we felt right at home upon arrival. 

Speaking of their home- it’s wonderful! The large windows let in lots of natural light and give you incredible views of valley. We particularly enjoyed the view at night, when the city lit up below! The place is tastefully decorated, comfortable, and for those who love to cook- the kitchen has all of the fun appliances and spices you could ever hope for. We were even lucky enough to enjoy the fruits and veggies from their garden, which was a very tasty treat! 

Last but certainly not least is Emmacat. Emmacat is a dream cat. She is the perfect balance of fun, cuddly, and chill. She is a complete love bug and she will steal your heart within minutes of arrival. Her routine is easy-peasy and she is simply the best company. We only wish we could’ve had a longer stay with her!

We 100% recommend this house sit if you get the opportunity. 

Thank you Martha, Ralph, and Emmacat for such a fun stay!
