House Sitting in Vacaville

Shawna did an absolute fantastic job watching our dogs and cat and our home while we were away. One of my dogs requires meds everyday and she seemlessly took over her care. She put our minds at ease with regular check ins and photos and videos. The house was in perfect order and I could tell that the girls were relaxed and well taken care of when we got back. Thank you so much Shawna!

Second time booking with Alexis and so so pleased. I feel so comfortable and at ease knowing Sonny is in good hands with Alexis! Truly the best and will continue to rebook!

Diyanna was great! Very communicative and helped us be worry free about our two dogs while on Vacation.

Amazing! Was such a relief to know our girl was in great hands while we were away! Kept us upto date and sent great photos. Will definitely use Shanley again!

We are repeat clients of Rocelyn. Our first time meeting was when we needed someone to watch our dog and cat for 11 days while we went out of town to spread my Dad’s ashes. I was a nervous leaving my pets with a stranger, but Rocelyn put us at ease at our first meeting. Because I was so frazzled, I forgot a lot of things, but Rocelyn brought those questions up herself, and a lot of things I wouldn’t have ever even thought of. Before the trip, we had her do a “test run” where she came and walked our dog and I showed her where the food and water was for our cat. She send me photos of the entire walk and kept me updated. She also suggested I get my dog a Fi collar, which is a GPS tracker/ heart rate monitor. This was a great suggestion and helped us put our minds at ease while we were away. I could see my dogs location- it showed a map of their walks and a stress level indicator, which Rocelyn liked to check to make sure she wasn’t pushing Trace (dog) too hard on his walks. (Rocelyn is an athlete- I noticed her walks were around 30 minutes and generally around 1.5 miles) Our dog actually lost weight while we were gone because she walked him 2 to 3 times a day while she housesit for us. Beyond just walking our dog, she also sent us photo updates of each pet daily and messages to check in. She stayed overnight for the entire duration of the trip. She would leave for a few hours at a time to do walks for other clients, but never left our dog and cat alone for more than 4 or 5 hours a day- which is the duration I was comfortable with my dog being alone. Due to the walks each morning and staying on top of our feeding schedule, the dog and cat had zero issues being left alone for that amount of time. In fact the Fi collar showed my dog slept a lot of that time, being completely wiped out from the walks! Haha. Our cat did have a harder time adjusting and hid in the garage for a few days, just coming out to eat. This was not Rocelyn’s fault, as our cat is not great with change and hides in the garage when he’s uncomfortable. Still, Rocelyn tried her best to make him feel comfortable, which meant she would go out into the hot garage and coax him over to her and give him attention, pets and reassurance. Over the course of our trip, we started seeing photos of Todd (cat) coming inside to say hello to her, which is really nice. We had spotty cell service for a lot of the trip and four of the days we had no service at all, but Rocelyn handled that like a champ. Even though we couldn’t receive calls and messages for the 4 days, when we got back cell service we noticed she had continued sending updates for those days, both text and photos/ videos. We were still out on July 4th and Rocelyn took extra care to comfort our pets during the fireworks. They were both scared but she gave them extra attention and calmed them down, which is an incredible feat in my option! Finally, we ended up getting home a day earlier than expected, and poor Rocelyn only got an hour or two notice (this was my bad entirely, please don’t be like me!). When I got home, my house was spotless. It was literally cleaner than the way I left it. I figured I’d have to do some cleaning & tidying when i got home but I didn’t have to do a single thing. She mopped, vacuumed, pulled off the bedding she used and replaced it, did the dishes, cleaned off counters, etc. the house smelled lovely and looked incredible. Litter boxes (we have 3) were all clean and had been maintained, cat water fountains were all full. Rocelyn even took down the laundry I forgot outside on the clothesline and folded it and put it away. It was truly above and beyond what I would have expected from anyone. Although my dog was happy to see me, he was also sad that Rocelyn wasn’t going to be there anymore. Because he missed her so much, we decided we want to continue hiring her for walks and if we ever need a house and pet sitter again, she is the only person I’d ever hire. Overall I’d give Rocelyn a 10 out of 10 and I would recommend her to anyone who needs short or long term pet sitting, housesitting, and dog walks- she might be a bit more expensive than other options, but trust me- she’s worth the price!

Anthony was absolutely great with my senior dog Gladys. He sent plenty of pictures, took her on plenty of walks and kept her great company. Would definitely recommend and will be booking him again in the future.

I don't want to give Alexa 5 stars because I want her all to myself. I've had Cooper for the last 4 years and Alexa is one of the very best sitters for him. He isn't easy. He has anxiety, needs routine, needs to earn trust. She bonded with him in record time and her regular photos were appreciated - A/because of such great responsiveness and B/Cooper clearly looked happy. Highly recommend.

Ori was fabulous once again! It’s so nice to have someone your babies love and you trust to take care of them while away. We do not have to worry when Ori is with them! She also takes wonderful care of our home!

Would highly recommend Amy to anyone looking for someone to take care of their dog! She gave our dog Bridger a very special long weekend with lots of attention! She gave us tons of pictures our little guy having a blast!

As usual, Kristin was a great dog and house sitter. Our dogs really enjoy having her around while we’re away. She takes great care of them. She also always leaves our house in great shape after she stays. Some sitters leave a mess. Not Kristin. Definitely recommend having her take care of your dogs and house if you have a need!
