House Sitting Alvarado

About: I have hands-on experience caring for multiple dogs of different breeds and personalities, including my four dogs at home — two dachshunds, a yorkie, and a schnauzer. Over the years, I’ve been responsible for many aspects of their daily care, from feeding and walking to bathing, grooming, and administering medication when needed. Caring for several dogs at once has taught me patience, responsibility, and how to recognize each dog’s unique needs and behavior. I genuinely love animals and enjoy making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I also have experience helping family and friends with pet sitting, which has helped me become confident handling dogs in different environments and routines. My schedule is very flexible right now since I am home from college for the summer, so my availability is pretty wide open. I am available most days and can easily adjust to different pet care schedules, whether that’s daily visits, walks, feeding times, or overnight stays. The only times I am unavailable are Mondays and Wednesdays from 7:30–9:00 due to soccer practice. Outside of that, I have plenty of time and energy to dedicate to caring for pets and making sure they get the attention and care they need. Caring for animals has always been a big part of my everyday life. At home, I help take care of my four dogs and my cat by feeding them, walking them, bathing them, cleaning up after them, administering medication when needed, and making sure they always feel loved and comfortable. Having multiple pets has taught me how to manage different personalities, energy levels, and routines while still giving each pet the individual attention they deserve. I also have experience caring for other people’s pets in their homes through pet sitting for family and friends. I understand how important it is to keep pets comfortable in their own environment and to follow their normal routines as closely as possible. Whether it’s feeding schedules, playtime, walks, medication, or simply giving them company and affection, I make sure every pet feels safe, cared for, and happy while their owners are away

“Emma was absolutely the best. She kept me posted and juggled my doggies very well. She also kept my house in order and extremely neat. Will definitely be booking her again.”

“Laura did an amazing job with our boys! She sent updates and pictures and all of them were happy and well cared for when we got home. She also left the house clean! We will be using her again very soon!”

About: Hi there! My name is Lauren. Some helpful things to know about me is that I have 5+ years experience in animal care. I've worked at animal shelters and as a manager at a pet daycare/boarding facility, I also have done pet sitting and dog walking on my own in the past. I've recently moved to the area and want to continue working with animals. I am responsible, reliable and will treat your pets as if they were my own. I love to send lots of updates and pictures so you know your pets are well taken care of. I have just recently moved to Alvarado and left my job at Operation Kindness Humane Society because the commute would of been too long. So my schedule is very open as of right now while I look for another job. I have a large yard, however it is not fully fenced. If you'd like for your pup to come to my house I would walk them to go potty. I also have 2 dogs that are dog friendly so if your pup likes to play they will get along great. My dogs are fully vaccinated and up to date all all shots and preventions. For your baby to stay with me I would need to see vaccination records, just to make sure everyone is safe and healthy. If you'd prefer me to pet sit at your home I am more than happy to do that as well and stay consistent with the daily routine you have with your animals. This is usually my preferred way, as it is less stressful for your animals to be in a familiar environment.

“Here’s a polished review you can post: This was our second time using Amber, and I felt just as comfortable as the first time having her not only in our home but also caring for our little spoiled herd. She is trustworthy, reliable, and genuinely cares about our dogs. She always keeps us updated with photos, which gives us so much peace of mind while we’re away. It’s clear our pups are happy and well cared for, and knowing they’re in such good hands makes traveling so much easier. We wouldn’t hesitate to book Amber again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and dependable pet sitter!”

“He was great with Jaime! She was so excited to have him over with her all week. He helped her calm down and taught her to take it easy. She took to him so well and all the pictures were so cute. We’re going to use him the next time we go out of town.”

Casey N.

“Isabelle took fantastic care of our two dogs and the house while we were out of town! She left the house tidy and was very respectful of our space and our wishes. I expect to ask her to come again the next time we need help!”

Steph M.

“Mckenzie was super responsive, flexible, and very kind. She helped us out very last minute for a family matter and took the best care of our babies. She sent pictures throughout the day and let me know how they were doing. We have one very anxious yorkie and he didn't want her to leave. Would definitely recommend Mckenzie and request her to sit with our babies in the future.”

Molly C.

“Amy was AMAZING! She took great care of our dog and cat (and house) while we were out of the country. Very communicative, sending pictures and fun updates everyday which really helped ease our worries. Very thoughtful, taking our dog for extra walks if she saw the weather was going to be bad the following days. Very caring, making sure they didn't go too long alone without a potty break even on the day we were due back. And very patient, as it takes a little while for our fur babies to warm up to people. We will be keeping fingers crossed she is available for our future needs and would definitely recommend her to others!”

“Hunter did a good job for us. I like, if I texted/called him, he got to me right away.”

Dorothy H.

“We are extremely satisfied with Lori’s services. After being away for 9 to 10 days, we returned to find our dogs in excellent health and spirits, clearly well cared for during our absence. The regular updates, including pictures and videos, significantly alleviated our concerns. We are certainly planning to use her again and have already arranged for her to housesit during our upcoming vacation.”

Scott L.

“Tracy was such a great sitter for our multiple pets while we were away. We have a senior dog that was having some issues while we were away and Tracy took incredible care of her and kept us updated with all information without having to ask. She was very patient and kind with our pets and definitely recommend her to others!”

Elijah M.

“Sara was wonderful with my 3 dogs. She stayed with them for a few days while I was out of town and did an excellent job caring for them, even though my senior dog was dealing with some health issues. 10/10 highly recommend”

About: As a devoted pet owner and animal lover, I understand that pets are more than just animals- they’re family. For the past 15 years I’ve cared for my beloved husky through every stage of life, giving me firsthand experience with senior pet care, patience, and understanding unique needs I offer flexible scheduling throughout the day and evening to accommodate your pet’s needs. Whether you need drop-in visits, walks, feeding, playtime, medication administration, or overnight care, I’m available to help keep your pets happy, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. When caring for your pets in your home, I strive to create a safe, calm, and loving environment where they feel comfortable and secure in their familiar surroundings.

I carefully follow your pet’s routines, provide plenty of attention, exercise, and affection, and ensure their safety and well-being are always my top priorities. You can have peace of mind knowing your pets will receive compassionate care while your home remains clean, secure, and well cared for during your time away.

“Jesailis stayed at our house with our two Yorkies while we were on vacation . She was very attentive and took great care of them. Her communication was excellent and she sent lots of photos and some videos, which assured us they were being taken care of. We definitely plan to use her again in the near future.”

“She took great care of our pets and even washed soiled bedding. We truly appreciated the pictures and care even when our app wasn’t working.”

About: I would love to take care of your babies while you are away. I will talk to them , cuddle them, feed and walk them. I’m am currently retired and looking forward to pet sitting. I have another friend that enjoys this so much, and I think I will like it just as much as she does. I will make sure there is always clean water, feed in the morning and evenings, or as often as you like. I wash the bowls about every other day. I have 3 beds for my chihuahua, one in the living room, bedroom and dining room where my computer sits. She sits in my lap when she wants, she lets me know when she needs to go out and I keep pee pads down for her just in case, and keep the area clean.

About: I have taken care of animals my entire life, from dogs, cats and horses to turtles, hedgehogs and even chinchillas and am very comfortable and capable of providing the top level of care to your pets I work professionally as a barber on a flexible appointment based schedule that allows for me to be home most of the time with my children and pets. I have a fenced yard with two friendly dogs who are crate trained. My six-year-old daughter is very compassionate and hands-on with caring for the animals in our home. I have several years of housesitting and pet setting for others and have been told I leave homes better than I found them and come highly recommended.

“Nita is the best!!! I think what stands out most about her is that she REALLY enjoys this work. She does an amazing job with the animals but she does it with enthusiasm and has a great time doing it. Our pups are usually so dramatic when we get back from a trip and we were a little offended this time because they did not care that we were back! I figured that would be the case when I saw how much fun they were having with Nita. My crew is happier and more spoiled than before I left them. Thank you so much Nita. I hope you will watch them again in the future ❤️”
