Hi, we are Lauren and Tom! We currently specialize in housesitting and would love to sit your pets in the comfort of their home. We work remotely so your home and pets will receive as much love and attention as needed while you are away.
We are clean, tidy and can attend to any additional requests you may have, such as plant care, cleaning and maintenance. We are excellent communicators and enjoy updating home and pet owners with pictures and videos throughout the sitting. We look forward to meeting you and giving your home and pets the best care possible!
Why we want to house sit
We are looking to housesit because we enjoy traveling and love to care for animals as if they were our own. Ever since childhood, we both have had a passion for travel, nature and animals. This experience is priceless and we enjoy connecting with new animal friends as much as possible!
Our experience
We have 20+ years of experience caring for pets. We run a successful home and pet care business in Southern California where we have sat over 300 dogs and cats and have continuous recurring clients. We use services such as Wag and Rover.com where we have a combined 150+ 5-star reviews. We also have a personal website, calisitters.com. Check us out there too!
We have experience with small and large breed dogs from a dachshund named Oscar to a mastiff named Kingsley. Our specialties include dog walking, boarding and sitting as well as caring for cats, lizards, birds and farm animals.
We have completed requests such as housecare and maintenance, daily dog walks/runs/hikes, trips to the park/beach, weekly trips to the vet, administering medication (both oral and topical), and more! We strive to be the best housesitters we can possibly be!
Let's connect! We would love to be your next housesitters!

Lauren & Tom were a perfect match for our needs (Archie, the dog, concurs). They were very responsible, took excellent care of Archie, kept us apprised of his status on a periodic basis (just the right amount), and left our house in a spotless condition.

Our decision to choose them was based on the numerous positive reviews they had received in the past and a couple of conversations that convinced us that the reviews were spot on. It is obvious that they are very experienced housesitters, and we enjoyed our vacation knowing that Archie and the house were in excellent hands.
We will definitely have them back if our schedules align.- Organised

Response from Lauren & Thomas
We had a wonderful time at Ben and Ginny's beautiful home with Archie!
He was so well behaved and we quickly became best friends with him. Ben and Ginny welcomed us into their lovely home and really made us feel cozy. There are some great hiking trails right up the road that were a lot of fun to hike and run along. Grocery stores were all very close and they had everything you could need on a housesit for us. We would gladly come back to sit Archie on any other future trips you may have! We had a great time on the sit and enjoyed the conversations we had with Ben and Ginny. Looking forward to seeing you both again real soon!
All the best,
Tom & Lauren -

It’s been a real pleasure to have Lauren & Thomas look after Obi and the appartment over Christmas.
Obi had a skin irritation, which he was biting, on a leg that they helped heal by applying medicine and giving him his prescription drugs for the condition.

Obi had a skin irritation, which he was biting, on a leg that they helped heal by applying medicine and giving him his prescription drugs for the condition.
They provided very detailed updates with some stunning photos of the little guy.
Coming home yesterday we found a very healthy, happy and relaxed kitty, and also an exceptionally clean appartment!
It looked like professional cleaners had been around.
I could not recommend Lauren and Thomas higher for a pet/house sit.- Organised

This review should be actually a continuation from the previous one. After that weekend Tom and Lauren have stayed with us at home for a couple of days before we took off on a second long weekend trip. During this time we actually had the pleasure to know Tom and Lauren more on the personal level and we spent some quality time with good food and wine. First of all ... let me tell you ... they are from New Jersey and have Italian roots. I am from Italy. They cooked Italian for me and it was so good that I became homesick. It was truly good, Lauren prepared fresh homemade pasta, and if she did not tell me that it was gluten free, I would have never found the difference. She is a great cook and good thing she has a side cooking business because I am going to be her client.
Needless to say that Roxy was already in love with them and they spoiled her a lot and she loves to be spoiled. They brought her out for a couple of walks and she was happy. We took off on our second weekend out of town and we knew that Roxy would have been in great hands. The guys sent us updates and pictures of Roxy when we were out, and again they took awesome care of the house being under construction.
We truly highly recommend these guys -- they are awesome!- Organised
