Best Friend Petsitter -

Best Friend Petsitter is the best petsitting company that my partner and I have ever used. Beth Anne is so courteous, intelligent, and is a consummate professional. Our cats instantly warmed up to her and we always feel very comfortable entrusting her with the care of our cats. She goes above and beyond and she truly cares about the health and safety of our cats. Communication with her is easy and reliable and she makes sure to keep us fully informed of the status of our cats while they are under her care. You will be very happy using Best Friend Petsitter!

Our cats, my partner, and I all feel so grateful and fortunate to have finally found the ideal, best care for our pets when we are away -- Best Friend Petsitter. We've had pets for decades and have had some sitters who we liked very much, but none have come close to comparing to Beth Anne.

From the start, she has been very thorough, completely dependable, and clearly dedicated and passionate about what she does. She listens to our concerns, and her detailed communication allows us to really know what's happening with our cats when we can't be there to pick up on subtle changes.

We had a recent incident where one cat needed to go to an emergency vet while we were gone. Beth Anne handled it promptly and gently (with more success than we usually have ourselves when attempting to get them in carriers). She provided much-needed comfort (to both us and our cat), she was so kind and compassionate that it was nowhere near as stressful as it otherwise would have been, and our cat received the treatment that she needed.

Our cats are noticeably at ease after spending time with Beth Anne, and her gift for connecting with animals extends to the shy and skittish. Her kindness is reflected in her personality, her care, and even her rates, which are so reasonable that it alleviates the financial stress that can be involved in hiring pet sitters.

To top off this glowing recommendation, we also want to share that she sends photos after every visit, and they're some of the best taken of our cats. Beth Anne captures their personalities in such a way that her love and genuine interest for them is evident.

Beth Anne is truly the best cat sitter I have ever had care for my furry boys - Walter & Louie. Super reasonable pricing, awesome care and photos sent to me daily while I’m away… and she goes above and beyond like bringing up my trash barrels! I feel super fortunate to have found Beth Anne in SB.

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!

Beth Anne has taken great care of our Fur babies, dogs and cats. She gives that personal touch that every pet owner wants to see when leaving their animals with someone. She makes the effort to send time socializing with every pet in her care. She takes away the worry of going away and leaving your fur babies behind.

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!

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!

Laura Little

Absolutely top notch service from beginning to end! 100% for communication, professionalism, warmth, knowledge, and understanding the needs of anxious dog moms. Beth Anne took great care of our dog. Highly recommended — for Santa Barbara area residents and for anyone traveling to Santa Barbara, as we were. <3
