Meet Sylvie and Raphael Manzetti
SB Five-Star Pet Care was born from a dream — a dream of creating a life filled with meaning, freedom, and love for animals. That dream is ours.
More than ten years ago, we made the bold decision to leave everything behind in France and start a new life in the United States.
After several years of experience in management, logistics, and customer service, we felt the need for something more genuine and fulfilling — a way to turn our lifelong passion for animals into a true way of life.
That’s how, in 2016, in Santa Barbara, California, our Premium Pet Sitting Company was born — built on trust, kindness, and professionalism.
What Our Long-Time Clients Say About Our Care
“SB Five-Star Pet Care was amazing! We were away for two weeks, and our three cats received daily love and attention. The team sent us updates and photos every day, which made us feel completely at ease. When we got back, our cats were calm and happy — a sign of great care!”
“Raphael and the team were so responsive and kind. They helped us last minute when we had to travel unexpectedly and even took care of our mail. Our cats quickly bonded with them — we’ll definitely be booking again!”
“Truly five-star service! They are reliable, flexible, and treat my pup like family. Highly recommended to anyone who wants trustworthy and loving care.”
“Sylvie looked after our dog during our wedding day — and she was simply incredible! So attentive, caring, and thoughtful. It was wonderful receiving photos throughout the day and seeing how quickly our dog felt at ease.”
“Fantastic service! Our cat adores Sylvie and Raphael. We’re so happy to have found such a caring and professional pet care team in Santa Barbara.”
