I used God's Creatures Pet Sitting for the first time to take care of my several cats for two weeks--the longest time I had ever left them. I immediately liked the God's Creatures team, Jacqueline and Karl, when we met. They carefully asked me many questions about the kitties and their care and they showed obvious affection for the cats. They came once a day for the two weeks and sent me texts and pictures with updates everyday. I usually worry A LOT about the cats when I am away but this time I worried less. I felt very, very comfortable knowing Jacqueline and Karl were taking care of them. In addition to feeding, watering and cleaning out the litter, the team swept up each day, cleaned up kitty messes, played with them, gave them massages and rubs and brought in the mail. One day a kitty had an accident, and they brought my slipcover home to wash! Amazing!! During week two, they ran out of food, and went out and purchased our brand! Truly, this team goes above and beyond because they seem to really, really love animals. I am so happy I found them and I will definitely use them again. If anyone wants to ask specific questions about their services, I am happy to answer them. Just message me on Yelp. KP read more

Karl and Jacqueline took care of our beloved Savannah for the last three years until she sadly passed away this summer. She adored them and they took wonderful care of her - even when she was at her most stubborn! read more

I have used God's Creatures Pet Sitting before - three years ago. Karl & Jacqueline were AWESOME to my then two kitties (one since passed away)!! Well, this past weekend I was going out of town and didn't have someone for Kaha. I texted them Friday morning and they got back to me right away, knowing my name even though I forgot to mention it! They kept my name and number after 3 years!!! Even though they were unable to meet me to get them the key they offered a solution that allowed me to get them my key so they could take care of Kaha! I definitely and highly recommend them to take care of your kids! Not only do they take great care of them - they text you after each visit to let you know how it went! These two TRULY ROCK!!! THANK YOU AGAIN!!!! read more

I wouldn't trust anyone with my Golden Retriever Savannah but I trust Gods Creatures Pet Sitting. Karl is a great walker and Savannah absolutely loves him. I really liked how thorough they were with questions on our first meeting. They deserve all the five stars they get on Yelp. Thanks again for looking after my little girl, it is comforting to know that she is well looked after. read more

Gods Creatures Pet Sitting - This little girl is very happy because of Gods Creatures Pet Sitting - Pet Sitting Near Me

We travel a lot and have 2 cats who are fed exclusively wet food twice a day, which means we always hire cat sitters when we go out of town. When we moved from Brooklyn to LA, we didn't think we'd find cat sitters as fantastic and the one we left behind. Fortunately, my husband found Gods Creatures. We did a trial run with them early on, to make sure that it would be a good fit. Our cats were incredibly content when we returned, so we knew we had found a great match. For the first visit, Jacqueline and Karl came over for a meet-and-greet and to learn about our cat's needs and routines. They took extensive notes ranging from when and how the cats should be fed to whether to bring in the mail & packages (and where to put them) to when, and if, to open the blinds. I love and appreciate their attention to detail. They send us pictures and updates while we're gone, which means that we can relax and enjoy our time away, knowing that our cats, and the house, are in excellent hands. read more

This review is way over-due but better late than never! I found God's Creatures almost three years ago shortly after getting my puppy Chewy. Jacqueline and Karl are absolutely amazing and Chewy adores them. They took care of her on several long weekend adventures and made sure Chewy was happy and all worn out after feeding, walking and playing with her. We had them come three times a day and they sent a text after each visit to let me know how she was doing so I knew I had nothing to worry about. Both Jacqueline and Karl are very accommodating when setting up meeting times and they are very reasonably priced. If you live in Santa Monica, you cannot go wrong with God's Creatures! read more

I've been using God's Creatures for probably 5 years now. The first time I met Jacqueline I could tell she was a total pet lover and would take care of my pets as if they were her own. They've handled everything for us from out-of-town cat sitting (including giving my cat a pill) to daily dog walking of our hyper puppy, and have been just fabulous and in my opinion very reasonably priced. We are moving out of their service area at the end of the month and I'm so sad that I will have to find a new pet sitter. read more

I can't say enough about how wonderful God's Creatures Pet Setting is. For me it's peace of mind while I'm at work and knowing my Dog is going for a long fun walk, and she is always a happy girl when I get home. Also, peace of mind that if she is sick (or me too!), they go above and beyond to help you out! I've been having them come walk my dog for almost 2 years now and we are so thankful that we got lucky enough to find them. read more

They are the most attentive and caring pet sitters that only can exist. This our second experience with Carl and his wife. They took care of our cat and a parrot for 10 days. The bird is a lil bit complicated and usually she doesn't like strangers, but they figured out somehow how to deal with her, and she really trusted them. I can say 100% sure that our pets were loved and cared not less than we love them while we were away. Carl and his wife did a great job, I really appreciate what they do. I would never go to any other pet sitting company. read more

I've had cats for 25 years and it has always been an issue finding responsible loving people to take care of them when I go away. Marcia's personal integrity and commitment to taking care of my cat Helen when I go away is unparalleled. She sends photos or videos every morning of Helen playing and it instills confidence that all is well at home. She is a pleasure to work with and I couldn't recommend her more highly. read more

Great pet sitters! So flexible and reasonably priced. They send a photo everyday so you feel better leaving your pets. Our cats love them!

Been meaning to say "thanks" to these wonderful people for some time. We left for Paris last fall and that meant leaving our two cats at home alone. Jackie and Marcia made that easy. They did everything they said they would do and more! The prep was thorough, including a tour of our home and asking for a list of vets just in case. But the best part was getting snapshots emailed to our hotel rooms -- there were Bo and Niko at play, discovering an ipad kitty video game. We came home and everything was perfectly in order. Whenever Jackie or Marcia came over, our cats ran to greet them, eager to play with their friends again. I found Gods Creatures Pet Sitting to be professional and totally reliable. I recommend them and would gladly use them again in future. read more

God's Creatures has been caring for our cats for 8 years. They've had a key to our house and the code for our alarm for 7 of the 8 years; I trust them explicitly. We go away for up to 3 weeks at a time and she and Karl do an amazing job keeping the kitties happy and the house looked after. I never worry about anything because they always take care of any issues that may come up--including sick cats, trips to the vet, medications, false alarms, police, the works My neighbor sometimes provides additional socialization for the cats and he describes Jacqueline as "very special." I've never met a pet sitter like Jacqueline; she loves my cats like her own and cried when one passed away. My kitties really miss her coming by every day when we return. read more

There is no way to exaggerate how wonderful the people at God's Creatures are. They are total pet lovers themselves, and they pay attention to every little detail that will help enhance the safety and comfort of the pet they are looking after. We were in Europe for 11 days and had to leave behind our new one-year-old cat. They came twice a day, played with our cat, looked after all her cat needs, and even refilled our fountains and bird-feeder so she could watch the birds out the window. We got a fun, informative email after every visit. It was Complete PEACE OF MIND. Now we're looking for an excuse to go out of town so our cat can have her friends at God's Creatures come back! read more

Previously whenever I went on long trips I put my two cats in a kennel. Last December, with the cats being 14 years old and one of them having hyperthyroidism and trouble eating, I felt that a kennel would be too stressful and started looking into pet sitters. My main concern was letting strangers have access to our apartment for two weeks, but Jacqueline and Karl proved to be trustworthy, reliable, helpful, and very flexible. They came to meet us and the cats and they took notes about each cat's needs and routines. They offered the option of letting them keep your house key on file after they're done sitting, or they will drop it off to you after, which I appreciated since I was so nervous about giving strangers complete access (although now I know that concern was unnecessary with God's Creatures). They also label the keys with the pets' names instead of your address as a precaution (but don't worry, they won't lose your keys!). They offered to send us text messages after each visit, but since we weren't going to have cell phone service they sent us emails. You're meeting the actual people who will care for your pets and they won't send other people in their place while you're gone. We were scheduled to arrive back to the US on Christmas Eve morning but the flight was overbooked and we couldn't fly out until Christmas Day. I quickly emailed Jacqueline and Karl to see if they could fit in a few more visits than we had originally planned, and they took care of it without a problem even though it was a major holiday. Awesome! They also brought in the mail, fed goldfish, and watered plants. They're great at giving pet meds, and Jacqueline showed me how to give cats a pill after I got back. They also brought my cats some catnip pouches (now destroyed) and a fleece blanket that is still their favorite thing to sleep on. Prices are extremely reasonable. Just to echo another reviewer, you can have complete peace of mind when they're with your pets. read more

Gods Creatures Pet Sitting provides the best pet sitting service you can find. Jacqueline and Karl are amazing! They truly made all my trips worry free. They are responsible, punctual and very proactive communicators. Every day of my trip I receive detailed reports about my pets and I know they are safe and taken care of with no glitches and exceptions. Right before my last trip my cat got really sick. It was very heartbreaking because I had to fly out for a number of days for some very important business meetings with no option to cancel. Jacqueline took care of everything. She was available to come more times per day and was absolutely amazing and skilled to give all numerous medications to my cat. When I got home my kitty was feeling much better, happy and even had a great new toy. I would give more than five stars to Gods Creatures Pet Sitting if I could!!! read more

In one word....Excellent! Jacqueline and Karl have been pet sitting for my two cats for two years. Not only are they wonderful with the kitties, but they text/emails daily updates, they give them any necessary medications and more importantly they are very attentive, flexible, sweet and loving. I feel confident leaving my home and my precious pets in their capable hands. read more

I first met Karl and Jacqueline 4 years ago when I had my family cat who was 18years old. Since she has passed but they always went above and beyond to make sure she was comfortable and loved when I was away. Karl came over on his own time to help show me how to administer fluids to Lizzy when she was sick. I have since recommended them to friends with animals and they couldn't be more happy. Great honest people. read more

God's Creatures Pet Sitting is terrific. We met Jacqueline to take care of our two cats while we were away on vacation, and she was amazing - visiting the cats every day to play with them, feed them and clean the box. These relatively needy cats were well cared for and didn't miss a beat. Happily, we were spared the usually two-day feline "WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN??!!" cold shoulder. Jacqueline texted us every day to let us know that the cats were happy and healthy, which is great for peace of mind when you are far away. I highly recommend this service and plan to use them for every trip. read more

I started working with God's Creatures back in 2000 to watch my two kitties. I trust no one else with my cats. Jacqueline and Karl have been there for me when I need them most. I can go away with ease and know how well my cats are being cared for. I always recieve daily updates, which makes travelling so much less stressful. When I arrive home, I can see the happiness in my animals and know how loved they were in my absence. On my last trip, one of my kitties got sick prior to me leaving and Jacqueline so graciously took her to the doctor and ensured that she was well taken care of. I cannot say enough about them. I am so thankful for them! read more

Karl and Stephanie are my doggies surrogate parents! They have been looking after them for over 4 years and have been absolutely wonderful! Not only are the girls calm and happy when I get home, but they act like I never left! Karl even had to take my cavalier to the vet one time when I was away - and he made sure everything was taken care of. They truly treat my pets as if they were their own. And the house is always so very neat and well cared for, too! I highly recommend them!! read more

My name is Mandie P & I work with Marcia from God's Creatures Petsitting. In all of the years that I have needed kitty care, this is the first time I have everrr used a pet service that has left me feeling totally secure & at ease. When I travel, I am literally without a care in the world. My babies are loved & taken care of, very well. Marcia goes above & beyond, by communicating daily with notes (texts) & pics. When I arrive home after 9 or 10 days of travel, my kitties are happy, healthy & calm. I was blessed the day that Marcia from God's Creatures crossed our paths! read more

I have never had to hire a pet sitter as there has always been a friend or roommate, so I was clueless as finding a pet sitter. I called Gods Creatures Pet sitting and spoke to Jacqueline who was so helpful and able to help me out on short notice. Jacqueline was very thorough in asking me questions about my four indoor cats, their likes and dislike as well as their ages, health and status in the house. She asked me my routine with the cats, feeding, diet, exercises, etc... She was able to schedule her mom to cat sit for me on a week night for four hours. The rates were reasonable and their services were great. I came home late after my work event and my cats were so happy and well content. They were feed, played with and were give lots of attention. The house was clean, litter boxes had been scooped and the kitties were fast asleep. I was very happy with their care and I highly recommend their services. Thank you Jacqueline and Elsa for your help! Christine read more
