Thanks again Nelson, Nico is already looking forward to hanging out with you next time!”

About: I’ve taken care of pets since I was very young, especially dogs and even reptiles!

They are both crate trained which will allow those pets with a fear of others to thrive. My yard is fenced in as well and I have a 5yr old who loves to play with animals and go on very long walks
About: I’ve always had dogs and cats various animals in my life. I now own a dog, 2 cats and 5 reptiles so giving TLC is not something that is new to me Daily walks with my dog kali is a must also fetch 24/7, playing with the cats and even helping my reptiles shed, I have never had a sick animal.

In my home my dogs are indoor and get feed 3 times a day everyday. My cats are indoor/outdoor and come in at night and are trained to do so. I know how to get a cat to come in if they are being a little stubborn as well as getting dogs to go out to use the restroom as needed.
“Jose accepted a last minute request for five days of house sitting for our two dogs who are both very anxious and shy. They’d never been left alone or with anyone else. Jose (and Joey) were amazing. They were patient with our dogs, letting them slowly come out of their shells, sent regular pictures and check-ins, keeping us updated on how things were going. And they went above and beyond, making sure Maui and Rain were alone as little as possible, giving them lots of attention and playtime. They took great care of the house too. We arrived home tonight to happy, healthy pups, who show no signs of stress despite being away for five days.”

“Alana was amazing! She went above and beyond our expectations! She made sure our house was kept clean, our plants were watered, and she even cleaned after the dogs. This was all extra stuff she did! Our fur babies loved her, and they were very well maintained and cared for! She updated us daily with pictures and was quick to respond if we reached out to her. We came home to notes for each day on dog's health, bowel movements and any changes in their moods or actions for each day she was with them. We will definitely be reaching out to Alana again in the future and would recommend her to anyone!”

About: Throughout high school and college, I often helped out friends and neighbors by dog sitting when they couldn't take their pets on trips. I’m a huge dog lover, and I really adore all kinds of pets. Over the years, I've earned the complete trust of my friends and neighbors when it comes to looking after their pets and homes. They know they can count on me to provide loving care and ensure everything is safe and sound while they're away. I am currently working at a mental health facility. I work 3:00 pm Sun-Wed. Although I am full time I am always happy to lean a hand. Free on Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays as well. I am also willing to Sundays off! I was born and raised in the Central Valley. Growing up on a farm made me exposed to many animals and I grew immense love for them. I had a wonderful time taking care of my beloved pets: a Labrador, German Shepherd, Cocker Spaniel, and a Chihuahua. They were all my babies, and I also had a horse that I adored. I'm a huge animal lover, and I miss them every day now that they are living with my older sister.

“Dayana is not only a friend, but one of the best dog sitters we could ask for. She follows instructions (such as medicine and food amounts, etc) and showers them with love and affection. She treats our dogs as her own and forms a genuine connection with her. Heck, I think they like her more than they like me! I could not ask for anyone else to watch our fur babies when we go away. I feel they will be safe and she will do what she can to keep it that way. Don't hesitate! She's one of the best when it comes to our pets!”
