1. Jaden F.


“Jaden is a fantastic and professional pet sitter. We have two dogs, two cats all with their own unique needs and personalities and she handles them like a pro and loves them like they’re her own. She sends along daily photos which is not necessary but so nice when you miss your fur babies. We’ve had her watch our animals a handful of times and it’s always been a wonderful experience. We know they’re in good hands!”

3. Ayden D.
“Ayden has been raised around animals his entire life. He has cared for dogs, puppies, and several cats on a daily basis. He is caring and compassionate towards all animals and thrives when taking care of their needs including feeding, walking, giving medication, changing puppy pads, tending to our female dog when she is in heat, and keeping their yard clean of waste. He is a great pet sitter, dog walker, and house sitter. I highly recommend Ayden.”

About: I’ve taken care of animals my entire life- I am very comfortable with all breeds, regardless of size! I’ve been dogsitting in homes for over four years, and I’m always willing to take your buddy out for a good walk or a trip to the pet park. My animals are my babies, and I know how important they are to you as well! I work early mornings, so I’m usually very open throughout the day! I have a flexible schedule that I can fit almost anything into, we’ll get into the details together! Animals are truly some of the most important parts of my happiness, so I know how important they are to yours. Your pet’s wellbeing is my number one priority, and they will always be treated with the same level of care regardless of size, breed, etc. Your baby is my baby, too!

11. Jennifer C.
“Jennifer has been a life saver for me and my dogs. She has house sat and stayed with my two golden retrievers more times than I can count. At least 10 times over the course of 3 yrs. Sometimes for 10-12 days at a time. One of my dogs was much older and needed to be home. I would trust her with them and my house in any situation. I am so thankful for her and all that she did to help me and my husband during our last years in Bakersfield. We have since moved but consider Jennifer family. She will take great care of your pets and home if needed.”


12. Noah C.
“Noah is amazing!! Our Shih Tzu Sugarbear loves him. We will tell her “Noah’s coming” and she’ll run and sit by the door until he comes over. I highly recommend him!!”


13. McKenna B.
About: I've been watching pets since I was 9. I've watched all kinds of pets. I have pet sat for family and friends. But I'm not a normal sitter. I have dog training under my belt, so if your pet needs to work on tricks or training I can help Once a week I walk my dog and every other day I give them special food like blueberries, pumpkin puree, and chicken in their food. If they are a cautious pet I sit with them and wait for them to come to me. Then when they feel comfortable with me I put my hand out for them to smell me. And if their Demeanor changes I go from there

20. Shannon S.

“We recently entrusted our dogs, Amber and Bella, to Shannon for two days, and we couldn't be happier with her service! As this was our first time leaving our pups, we were understandably nervous. However, Shannon eased our worries by being punctual and highly communicative throughout our time away. She sent us adorable pictures of Amber and Bella, which truly made us feel at ease. It was clear that our dogs were in great hands. We highly recommend Shannon for anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter. Thank you, Shannon”
