Tikva has been a very organized and caring pup and house sitter. When the battery to our car fob wore out, she even managed to figure out how to replace it

Tikva was amazing!! From beginning to end it was an absolute pleasure to deal with her. She was wonderful with our dog Mo, a Chihuahua who has some anxiety

Tikva was wonderful. She was very communicative and caring for our pups. We'd definitely have her back!

Tikva was great! While we were away we got regular updates from Tikva of our dog Tucker living his best life visiting some of our neighbor dog & human

Tikva was an amazing sitter! She took wonderful care of our puppy and our home for a long sit. She is intentional, proactive with communication, well traveled, and highly responsible. She is also incredibly kind and warm-hearted and you can feel how much love she has for animals, people and our world when you talk to her. She sent us daily updates without prompting, answered any questions we had in a timely manner, and left our place SO clean! Before she left she sent us a check list of everything that she had done before leaving without us asking so we never had to worry. She even left us sweet treats as a thank you! We could truly relax and enjoy our time off with our families and come home knowing our furry family member was safe and well cared for and our home was just as we left it. Highly recommend Tikva for your sits!!

Why I want to house sit

My home in Topanga, CA was affected by the back-to-back storms and I'm using the displacement as an opportunity to travel to see friends and work remotely while I figure out where I want to be next. Plus, I love watching after and spending
