House Sitting in Portola Valley

Marion was wonderful! She sent lots of photos and updates every day while we were away, which gave us so much peace of mind. She was also incredibly flexible when we needed to adjust our dates at the last minute. Our home was left very tidy, and we came back to a very happy cat. We’re so grateful for her care and would happily book with her again. Thank you, Marion!

Chelsea sent great pictures of my cat! It felt great to see a variety of pics so I had an idea of how she was interacting with the cat. They looked very cozy together, which was heartwarming.

Allison was great with our dog while we were away for the weekend. She was very responsive and took the added responsibility of managing a dog who requires extra care and supervision seriously. We felt secure leaving her with Alison and will definitely have her back.

Stephanie did a great job winning over our very shy and anxious Chihuahua-Yorkie rescue. She was patient and calm and in less than 24 hours, Stella was on her back, begging for belly rubs. Stephanie also cared for our 3 cats, sent regular updates, dealt with house tasks, and left our home spotless. Highly recommended!

Octavia was awesome! She stayed in our house for 6 days/nights to take care of our mini aussie who has a foot injury and is taking pain medication. We felt very comfortable leaving our dog with Octavia and all went very smoothly. She left the house spotless as well which was not expected but a nice surprise! Thank you, Octavia!!

We are forever grateful for finding Kiana to take care of our dog Barney. Our dog is a senior who has anxiety and seizures and so he’s very particular about his routine due to medications. Kiana did a great job at addressing his needs and even going above and beyond. Barney had an episode of gastroenteritis unexpectedly and Kiana was super communicative with us the whole time! We decided to bring him to the emergency vet and she not only stayed with him for several hours, she also went to the store to buy him food and made him chicken and rice! Her commitment to caring for him as if he was her own dog was so heartwarming. She also incorporated his new medicines into his existing medicine routine. She also rearranged her schedule so she can stay with him for the day to make sure he recovers well. She also cleaned up after him, leaving our home spotless, which is really more than we can ask for given everything. I would give a million stars if I could! Thank you Kiana for everything!

Caroline was the absolute best with my dog, Gino. She played with him, took him for daily walks and sent me a ton of pictures while I was away in Europe. I was able to relax and enjoy my vacation knowing that Gino was happy!

Xander was great! He was so patient with Mycroft and won her over at her pace, giving her much needed company and supervision so I could enjoy a day away with friends. I’ve never been gone for so long before, but he was able to make her comfortable enough to sleep the day away—something she won’t do, no matter how tired, u less she feels secure. So glad to have him and will definitely book again. I recommend him highly.

Savannah has been such a blessing to our family. For the first time ever, I’ve felt comfortable leaving my 16 year old dog with someone and go on a trip with my entire family. I know my dog is well taken care of with Savannah. She is loving and caring which puts my dog at ease and she is on top of communication, putting me at ease. Thank you for everything!

went above and beyond for our sweet bailey!! very responsive and even sent pictures!! when we came home the dishes we had in the dishwasher before he had got there were put away, and he even washed and folded all the bedding for us! He gave her lots of treats and took her on long walks, she loved him!! We definitely recommend him to pet sit, we will be using him again!!
