“Kim was able to help walk my dogs while I was out of town for a few days. He sent me a text after each walk and let me know how things went. It feels good to know that I can rely on him to care for my dogs.”

About: Welcome Pet Parent, thank you for checking my profile. I enjoy working with animals. My dream would be to have a ranch and rescue animals. I grew up with dogs, cats, mice, rats and fish. I am Dog and Cat First Aid Certified. I work well under pressure, and I can monitor pets that may have seizures. As well as look out for other potential health concerns. I enjoy learning dog and cat personalities. To know their needs for socialization, stimulation, games and walks. During dog walks, I am observant when encountering other dogs or people to ensure the safety of my client's dogs. I like to make sure my clients home is sharp and clean and ready for their return home. I give nothing short of my very best when I take care of your pets. I treat them as if they are my own. With love, care and affection. I look forward to hearing from you. I am working on multiple projects and have a flexible schedule. If I am given enough notice I do my best to accommodate new clients. When I come into client homes, I do nothing less than professional. I take good care of their pets and their home. If I have any questions or concerns, I communicate them. I also know a lot of professionals in veterinary field that I ask questions too. Their pet safety and safety of their home is priority. I do my best to adapt their pets routines during my time there to provide the best sitter experience for them while their humans are away.

“We were in San Jose for a wedding and needed dog walking and feeding for our little guy. Alyssa was great! We gave her our code to the AirBnB where we were staying and she walked Minnow twice both days of celebrations. Alyssa followed my instructions and Minnow was well taken care of. Definitely will hire her again when we are in town!”

“Sumaira is always on time and I know I can count on her to take good care of my fur babies. While walking my Siberian Husky another dog that was unleased attacked my dog. Sumaira safely got my girl home and check her out from head to toe. She promptly notified me that the husky was attacked, however alright. Sumaira let me know there was a little blood on her ear, however she did not appear to be injured. I myself have had another dog attack us when we were walking. Sumaira did the responsible thing and notified me and ensured my girl was alright. In this type of situation that is best can be accomplished and despite this incident I will ask Sumaira to walk her again.”

About: As a nurse with a strong medical background, caring for others is truly second nature to me, including our beloved animals ! I’m responsible, attentive, compassionate, and comfortable caring for animals with different personalities, routines, and needs. My nursing experience has taught me to be observant, calm in unexpected situations, and diligent about following care instructions, medications, feeding schedules, and other special requirements.

I am in between contract work right now as a nurse, so my schedule is very open to fit your needs! No need to always book in advance. You can message me same day in case of emergencies.

About: I’ve cared for animals my entire life — from barnyard pets to beloved family cats and dogs — and I understand how much trust it takes to leave your furry family member with someone new. As a proud pet parent to a playful Frenchie and a sweet rescue cat, I know firsthand the love, patience, and consistency pets need to feel safe and happy. I’m currently taking a break from the corporate world, which means your pet gets my full attention, a flexible schedule, and prompt communication. Whether it’s walks, cuddles, or special-care routines, I treat every animal as if they were my own. One of my favorite parts of pet sitting is capturing their personality with photo and video updates so you can see how much fun they’re having.

About: We do our very best for your pups! We provide pick up and drop off to help with the convenience for you and your pup. I usually prefer to come and do a meet and greet beforehand, so you and the pup can get to know me. I love to see your pup in their natural habitat, so I know what to expect. A little bit about our place, we are completely off grid with solar and a wind turbine for power! We give our pups well water. The water is very high in natural minerals and has Magnesium, which helps keep us and our pups very mellow/calm during their stay. We are up 4000ft in elevation and up here we get SNOW in the winter, which makes for great pics. We have been working with dogs for 10+ years. We accommodate all different types of pups from Tea-cups to Malamutes. (2-100+lbs) we’ve done it all. We try very hard to accommodate you and are willing to go the extra mile to make everything go smoothly. We do ask you give us their food for them. It’s very important to us that your dog remains safe and secure at all times. The more information you can tell us about your pup the better! We do have AirTags/Drones and other toys if they have issues with trying to escape. Your pup will get an experience up here that they can’t get anywhere else. We treat them like family, because to us they are! They will see all different types of animals from birds to tons of squirrels, rabbits and’s quails. They might even get to see cattle/horses at the bottom of the hill. They will never be able to interact with any of them. We send pictures/videos normally everyday. We do send updates everyday!!! Please, feel free to txt or call me anytime if you have any questions. We hope to see you and your pup very soon!!!😊🍀🙏🐾 We are up and about at 6-7am. Everyone heads out for the bathroom and stretch. I get my coffee and start preparing food. Everyone gets fed separately or in their kennels. Then, around 8am we go on our first hike. Usually between 30/60 min. Then after their first hike they get to either come inside the main house or hang out in the play area. Around noon we play some games, work on training techniques, or play mind games where they work on their smell or obedience. Depending on the weather we go for another pack walk. Time again varies between 4-7pm. Then DINNER TIME!!! That usually also consists of me firing up the BBQ and give them a little bit of what we’re eating. After dinner we give them a few hours to digestion and poop and pee and then everyone gets their nice warm blanket for bed around 9pm. We do vary in our days if it’s hot I pull out the pool and fill it up. If it’s cold and snowing we pull out the heaters and snuggle on our bed and watch a movie. To be honest I have the best job ever! All of the dogs I’ve ever met have a personality of their own. They usually take after their owner lol. I’m constantly surrounded by my dogs, stimulating them with something, music or movies, podcasts. When your dog comes up here we treat them just like they were our own.

About: I have many years of volunteering at an animal shelter and my main job was to train, and social many of the new dogs they would be in. As well as my entire life my family has always had pets growing up. I am currently working full time at a dental office however I have a set schedule. I am a person that likes to be extremely organized and plan my days accordingly along with my own pets needs as well as caring for the needs of other pets. I am very flexible when it comes to changing spaces. So whatever particular care your pet needs won’t be a problem. I can follow clear directions as well if there’s anything specific to your pet needs.
