Why pet sitting is often the kindest choice
A lot of pets simply do better at home. There's no car ride, no new smells to get used to and no other animals to share space with, so they settle in, eat normally and sleep in their usual spot.
- Seniors and pets on medication stay on their exact routine, with meds given on time, every time.
- Anxious or reactive dogs skip the stress of a new place and a room full of strangers' dogs.
- Multi-pet homes stay together. Cats, birds and fish get looked after on the same visit.
- Your house stays protected. Someone is coming and going, the mail is picked up and the lights change.

Questions we get a lot
How much does pet sitting cost in Orange, CA?
Drop-in visits start at $35 for 30 minutes or $55 for 60 minutes, plus $10 for each extra pet. Overnight house sitting starts at $140 a night plus $25 for each extra pet. Holidays and bookings that start within 24 hours have a small premium, and you'll see your exact estimate before you send a request.
Do you watch cats and other pets?
Yes. Home visits cover cats, and we're happy to feed fish, birds and other small pets that live with your dog. Villa stays at our home are for dogs only.
How many visits a day does my dog need?
Most dogs do best with two or three visits a day so they never wait more than about 8 hours for a potty break. Cats are usually happy with one visit a day. If your dog can't be alone overnight, house sitting is the better fit.
Are you insured and do you check references?
We meet every pet and owner first, keep a written emergency plan with your vet's information, and keep your keys labeled with a code, never your address. Ask us anything at the meet-and-greet.
