House Sitting Ahwahnee

“Christina is simply phenomenal! Her personality is very mature, warm, loving, calm, and her (really great) communication shows great judgement and experience with animals and people. She is totally not put off by challenges, and I have a large hyperactive dog, and another with fear aggression. Both dogs took to her instantly! She has an artistic side and always sends me photos of my dogs which are much better than I can take myself. I like that she is a problem solver and also takes initiative...she just takes care of things, calming my nerves. I return to a house with happy, exercised dogs who seem like they don’t miss me at all :) additionally, Christina shows great respect for your home, and took it upon herself to clean stuff, which was so sweet, thank you Christina!! This review is long overdue. Do not hesitate with her, she is fabulous, trustworthy and very responsible. I came upon her by accident when I thought I was texting another sitter and was shocked at her immediate and friendly reply, so I took a chance on my next housesitting. Boy am I ever glad I did.”

“Fantastic experience with Shauna. She was responsive and took wonderful care of our kitten, who has a lot of energy! She played with him and put on his favorite tv shows and updated us regularly on how he was doing. We've already booked her three times!”

“Emily was great! She treated my Tj like her own. I felt very comfortable and confident that he was well taken care of while I was away. Emily's communication was great and she sent photos of my dog regularly.”

About: My life is surrounded by animals, and that's the way I like it! I have been working with animals since I was 2 years old if not younger. I started out assisting in rehabilitating wildlife, which never left. I trained several dogs, from showmanship, to basic training, and even as a personal service dog. I have won several best of shows in showmanship. My daily routine is as follows: wake up, get coffee, wake birds up and let them out, let dogs out, feed cats, dogs, birds, make breakfast, hang out with the animals and wake up, eat lunch, clean house while incorporating working with the animals, bath time!, make social media content with the animals, start dinner with the animals, feed animals their foods, snack time, hang out with family, put everyone to bed, goodnight! I treat my animals better than I treat myself 😅 people/souls that can't help themselves, I've always had a place in my heart for, and I always do my best for them.

About: I have had dogs my entire life and have extensive hands-on experience caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and breeds. Growing up with dogs taught me the importance of providing daily exercise, feeding, grooming, companionship, and recognizing their individual needs and personalities. In addition to caring for my own pets, I have watched and cared for many dogs for family, friends, and neighbors. I am comfortable with feeding schedules, administering basic medications if needed, taking dogs on walks, cleaning up after them, and making sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while their owners are away. I am dependable, attentive, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, treating every pet as if they were my own. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine because I've had dogs my whole life and caring for them has always been part of my day. I'm used to planning my schedule around feeding times, walks, playtime, and giving pets the attention they need. I enjoy being active and spending time with animals, so making sure they're happy, comfortable, and well cared for is something I genuinely enjoy. I am reliable, organized, and committed to following each pet's routine to help them feel safe and comfortable while their owner is away. I will care for your pets with the same love, patience, and attention that I give my own. I will carefully follow your pet's routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication (if needed), and any special instructions you provide. I will make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you're away. I'll also keep your home clean by picking up after your pet, refreshing water bowls, and maintaining their living area. I understand how important it is to have someone trustworthy caring for your pets, and I'll provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind during your time away.

About: I've been a pet sitter for more than a decade. I am thoroughly proficient with puppies and high energy dogs, such as Golden Retrievers. I enjoy looking after and creating connections with pets and their owners alike. I have open availability to care for your pets! I am currently on the job hunt, and I am pursuing pet setting as a side opportunity. I believe that the best care is around the clock supervision, and clear/concise communication with pet owners. I am always keeping the pets under my care stimulated and enjoying our time together.

“Melanie was fantastic with Juno, my senior cat, and Luka, my dog for a day house sit. Her communication was excellent leading up to and throughout the stay. She sent clear updates the whole time, including for Juno's med administration. She treated both of them like her own, taking Luka on walks and adventures around the area and made sure Juno was getting enough attention. She made sure everyone stayed happy, healthy, well fed, and was well cared for. I was pretty nervous leaving them for 4 days, but Melanie made it very easy and reassuring. I highly recommend her!”

“Nico had another great week with Nelson. Nelson goes above and beyond, making sure Nico is pampered and sends regular updates. He always leaves the house spotless and removes all the stress of being away from my old Carolina Dog. You can rest assured your pet will be in excellent hands with Nelson!”

About: I’ve grown up surrounded by cats and dogs my entire life, so caring for animals has always been a huge part of who I am! I’ve had 18 years of experience living with and caring for pets, and I genuinely love spending time with animals of all personalities. I’m comfortable with everyday pet care including feeding, walks, playtime, cleaning up, and making sure pets feel happy, safe, and loved. I understand that every animal has their own personality and routine, and I always do my best to make them feel comfortable. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pets because I have pets of my own! I’ll treat your furry family members with the same love, patience, and attention that I give mine. I’m also happy to send pictures and updates so you can feel confident your pets are in good hands! I currently have 5 cats and a puppy. :) I currently work part-time while attending college, but I have plenty of flexibility to fit pet care into my schedule! I typically work until 6 PM Tuesday through Thursday, and on other days I usually finish around 1 PM, although my hours can vary. I’m happy to accommodate morning, afternoon, or evening visits depending on my availability. I love spending time with animals and am always willing to work with pet parents to find a schedule that works for everyone! Your pet’s safety, happiness, and comfort will always be my top priorities! I prefer caring for pets in their own homes, where they can stay comfortable in a familiar environment and maintain their normal routines. I’m very respectful of other people’s homes and always make sure pets have fresh water, proper meals, plenty of attention, and a clean, safe space. Having grown up with cats and dogs my entire life, including my five cats at home, I understand how important it is to trust someone with your animals. I’ll always follow your specific care instructions and happily provide pictures and updates throughout each visit so you know your pets are happy and well cared for!
