House Sitting Bardsdale

About: I've loved animals for as long as I can remember, and caring for them has always been a big part of my life. I'm currently studying Animal Health Science and hope to eventually work in animal conservation. Over the years, I've had many different kinds of pets and have gained lots of hands-on experience caring for both my own animals and other people's pets. I'm hardworking, friendly, dependable, and I truly enjoy getting to know each animal and their individual personality. I would love the opportunity to care for your pets and make sure they feel happy, safe, and comfortable while you're away! I am a college student looking to gain more experience with animals and earn extra money for living expenses. I am currently enrolled at Cal Poly Pomona as an animal health science major, but I'm living in Moorpark this semester. When it comes to potty breaks/walks, I’m especially careful with smaller dogs because of the potential risk of wildlife or other animals nearby. I’m also extra cautious around pools if in the backyard especially if there isn’t a fence or barrier around them. Every home and pet is different, so as long as the owner lets me know about any specific safety concerns or rules, I’m happy to follow them and make sure their pet stays safe!

About: I have always grown up with big dogs and have dealt with reactive dogs as well. I know how to approach each dogs quirks when I walk them! I just graduated college and am currently job searching and walking dogs is a great way to get my steps in and fill my love for dogs as a side gig Whenever I enter my parents home or another’s home greeting the dogs with love is a must! My parents dogs are always on my mind and I am constantly thinking about if they are bored or need to use the bathroom. My heart strings are pulled anytime I see a dog on the street and go out of my way to give it water or food.

“Emily is an amazing sitter!! She watched our 13 week old Golden Retriever puppy for 2.5 days and was so incredible with him. He can be a handful, but she is so patient and caring. Highly recommend her and we will be using her a lot more in the future!”

About: What sets me apart as a sitter is that I’ve lived with animals my entire life and truly love caring for them. I have experience with both cats and dogs, and I understand their routines, personalities, and needs. I own cats, and many of my friends have dogs and cats that I’ve helped take care of, giving me hands-on experience with different temperaments. I’m patient, attentive, and reliable, and I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. Pet care is already a regular part of my daily and weekly routine. I care for my own pets every day, which includes feeding, cleaning, playtime, and making sure they are comfortable and safe. I plan my schedule around pet care, so I’m used to being consistent, on time, and attentive. Because of this, it’s easy for me to fit pet sitting, walking, and check-ins into my routine and give each pet the time and care they need. I care for pets by following their usual routines and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. In my home or a client’s home, I provide fresh food and water, regular walks or playtime, litter box or cleanup care, and lots of attention. I respect the owner’s instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications if needed, and house rules. I always keep the environment clean and make sure pets are supervised and never left feeling stressed or ignored.

“Jeffrey was amazing! He kept us posted constantly while we were out of town. It helped us give us a peace of mind and we will definitely be booking him again in the near future.”

About: Growing up I always had cats and dogs and have loved caring for them. Currently I am living on a small alpaca ranch and have gotten to experience taking care of alpacas, goats, chickens, horses, donkeys, dogs, cats, and lizards which all have unique needs. Whether your pet is simple and easy to care for or has a complex routine I am excited to help in any way I can! I'm currently a full-time student so the times I'm most available are Monday-Thursday before 9 A.M. and after 4 P.M. as well as Friday after 2 P.M. and Sunday after 6 P.M. If your dog would like to beat the heat with me at any of these times shoot me a message! If you book me my sole focus will be on your pet and making sure they have a safe and enjoyable time. I have experience with large dogs and pulling and can handle any interactions with other humans and dogs the way your family prefers. I am also able to manage multiple medications and schedules for pets and will take notes on anything your pet may need.

About: I’ve been caring for pets since I was 16, so I have years of experience with animals of all ages and personalities, from energetic puppies and playful kittens to older pets who need extra patience and love. I currently have two dogs and a cat, and I’ve raised them since they were young, so I understand the attention, training, and care every animal needs. I’m an athlete and love going on walks, so I can keep up with high-energy dogs or take long, leisurely strolls with older pets. I’m also comfortable handling feisty or shy pets, and I always focus on building trust, keeping pets safe, and making sure they feel happy and loved while their owners are away. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, cuddles, or just companionship, I treat every animal like family and adapt to their unique personality and needs. I’m willing to go the extra mile (literally and figuratively) to make sure your pets feel cared for, safe, and comfortable. I just finished school and currently work as a waitress for about 4 hours a day, which leaves me with plenty of free time. I’m looking to spend those off-hours doing something I genuinely love caring for pets. My schedule is really flexible, so I’m able to fit in walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting throughout the day and week. Whether you need regular visits or last-minute help, I’m happy to make it work around my shifts. When I’m caring for pets in my client’s home, I follow their routine as closely as possible so their pet feels safe and comfortable. I stick to feeding schedules, walk times, playtime, and any special instructions you leave. I take the time to get to know each pet’s personality whether they’re playful, shy, or extra cuddly and make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and reassurance while you’re away. I also respect your space by keeping everything clean, secure, and exactly how you left it. When caring for pets in my own home, I have a fully fenced yard where dogs can play and explore safely. My dogs are kept in my garage during visits so your dog has full freedom to roam in the yard or, if they are an indoor dog, stay inside the house comfortably. I already have two dogs and a cat, so I’m used to managing different personalities and making sure everyone feels safe and happy. Walks, playtime, and lots of love are always part of the day. No matter where your pet is, my goal is always the same: to keep them safe, happy, and loved just like they’re part of my own family.

“I recently had the pleasure of hiring Flor as a dog sitter for my two anxious rescue dogs, Butters and Jake. I cannot express how grateful I am for the exceptional care and service she provided. From the moment we met Flor it was evident that she had a genuine love and passion for animals. She took the time to ask detailed questions about our dog’s routine, preferences, and any specific care instructions to ensure a seamless transition during our absence. Throughout the entire duration of our trip, Flor maintained open and prompt communication, providing regular updates and photos of our dogs. Not only was she able to bond with our anxious dogs, she showered them with love, attention, and personalized care. She cleaned up their many potty accidents (we have a nervous pooper and a blind dog that can’t always find the doggie door) and left our home possibly cleaner than it was before she arrived. We are so glad to have found Flor and will continue to hire her for our future travel!”

About: I have had around thirteen years of cat care experience, having owned four cats, a tarantula, and a snake throughout my entire life, and currently volunteer at an animal shelter. I have had a lot of opportunities to learn how to take care of cats and their body languages, so I am very experienced with knowing when to back off or if a cat wants love or pets; I also know what to look out for to prevent cat fights from happening or how to break one up. Although most of my experience is in cats, I am always open to learning new things or how to take care of dogs, and I am always willing to walk your dog or house sit for them because I am someone who loves animals and will never shy away from a chance to meet them! I am still a student right now, so I am only free in the afternoons and evenings during the weekdays, but I am totally free on weekends (minus 2-5 PM on Saturdays where I volunteer). I am also looking to get a part time job so my schedule might shift around. I will happily send you pictures or video updates of your puppies or kittens, and I am also extremely willing to play with them using their favorite toys, and I don’t mind spending extra time for snuggling sessions while I’m there! ❤️ My house is usually very quiet save for the occasional cara passing by, and the cats are allowed to wander about and do whatever they want. I will also never try to force an interaction with a cat if the cat does not want it. I brush and groom my cats if the opportunity comes up, and is open to snuggling with a cat anytime 🥰

“Sarah helped us out in a pinch when we had to urgently travel for a funeral and needed help sitting our lovable but quirky Jack Russel Terrier Rosie. She made a point to adjust her schedule to learn all the aspects of Rosie’s care beforehand, and then followed the instructions to the letter! Rosie had a wonderful time, and we had no worries while we were traveling because Sarah sent frequent updates. I look forward to having her return whenever we need to travel!”

I’m a lifelong dog lover who believes every pup deserves plenty of love, belly rubs, and playtime. Whether we’re out on a walk, throwing the ball or snuggling on the couch…I’ll make sure your fur baby feels safe, happy, and so loved while you’re away!

“Kaitlin was prompt to answer any messages and questions I had. She arrived on time and took great care of our dog Sky while we were out of town for the weekend. Her rate is lower than other sitters we have used in the past, but the service was equal. We would use her again.”

Ashley H.

“Sara is amazing and took great care of our cat while we were on vacation. I usually feel a lot of anxiety when we leave for long periods of time, but her frequent updates and communication really put me at ease. She is very trustworthy and caring, and we will most definitely book her again in the future! :)”

About: I have been a pet sitter since I was in middle school and have had the pleasure and opportunity to care for many different furry companions! I am no stranger to administering medications and have pet-sat many different dogs and cats of all sizes and shapes! I have no issue caring for cats and/or dogs that have any sort of deformities, amputations, or just look weird and funky in general. A dog is still a dog and a cat is still a cat, and every pet deserves love regardless of what they look like! I am currently a college student who loves caring for all kinds of fur babies!

About: I was born into a family with Saint Bernards, and over my lifetime have owned seven Saints plus an English Mastiff, a pittie mix, a cat, birds, fish, rodents, reptiles, and horses. I've been described by friends and family as a dog whisperer, and I can't help but make friends with any dog I see. I've been dogsitting for friends and family on the side for years now, doing overnight visits, extended stays, and drop-ins for potty, walks, and meals. I love cats and dogs of all sizes, but I've always had a soft spot for the giant breeds. I was a cross country runner and still live an active lifestyle, so long walks and runs are no problem. I can also do transportation to vet visits, doggy day care or walks at dog parks, etc. I'm looking forward to taking care of your furry family members! I am widely available for scheduling. I have a few steady clients with regular visits, but I can work with you and figure out the best schedule! As a lifelong animal owner, I understand the needs of many animals, as well as the feelings that owners have towards their furry friends. My initial clients were friends, but through the established trust and word of mouth recommendations, that list has grown. When doing overnight or extended stays, I will always bring in the mail, take out the trash, and perform any other household duties you may need. I've cared for sick dogs, handled emergency situations, and taken care of urine and other medical samples for my clients. Whatever you need, I can accommodate.

“Kevin was a great dog and house sitter for us! Conscientious, punctual and very responsive. It is nice to not worry about your home and pets while you are away - we will not hesitate to use him again.”
