“Beth Anne was the best! She watched my two pet rats for me and sent me pictures of them playing with her. My little loves were so happy when I got home I knew that she had taken such good care of them. Usually they’re quite skiddish with others but Beth Anne has the magic touch!” – Alixandra R., Santa Barbara
“Beth Anne has been our pet sitter for many years. She has cared for our dogs and cats mostly, and the occasional bird, mouse, and hamster as our kids adopted new pets. She was exceptionally good with our blind cat, it never occurred to her to shy away from caring for a special needs pet. She has been kind and proficient in administering medicines to our dogs and our cats when needed, especially as they age. We love that she is very good about staying in touch with us daily with a picture text and update, and she spends a lot of time playing with them as we can see on our pet cams. Our pets love her and we are so blessed to have found her!” -Patty N., Santa Barbara
“Beth Anne has been a lifesaver for me and my kitty! In normal times, I travel a lot for work and sometimes don’t plan things as far in advance as I should. Beth Anne has had my back every time. She is an extremely responsive communicator, and she goes above and beyond to make sure pets (and plants, vegetable deliveries, mail…) are safe and happy. I look forward to daily updates while I’m traveling and hers always make me smile. So wonderful to know your pet is just in good hands, no matter what might come up. I couldn’t recommend anyone more highly!” -Morgan R., Goleta
“My cats normally hide when new people come over, but they went right to Beth Anne when she first met them. She kept my multilevel home spotless too, even with messy litter boxes on every floor and a cat that is determined to thoroughly cover everything with litter. Aside from being the cat whisperer, I appreciate her diligence in securing my home (including learning how to operate the security system) and being respectful of my home and belongings. Whenever family or friends need someone they can rely on, I always recommend Beth Anne. Hands down will only use her to watch my cats and home from now on.” -Manuel S., Santa Barbara
