“Lauren was extremely communicative and was willing to discuss times / schedules that worked best with us! She is very sweet and we will be booking her again when we need a sitter!”

“Erica was awesome, she was very responsive and incredibly accommodating. Our animals immediately took a liking to her and we were very comfortable leaving them in her care for the weekend.”


About: I've taken care of my dog for a year and a half, will feed her, give pets to her and her children and make sure that they are loved and cared for and will take on walks and everything. I'm available anytime you need for now, as nothing is really stopping me but once I do start working at the humane society, my hours will vary. I would take them on walks, feed them and make sure they are tended. Feed them, give them water, change their litter, make sure they are perfectly loved and played with.
“Jessica watched our 2 dogs and house with short notice and was just amazing. Our meet and greet was awesome - she asked all the right questions and put my mind at ease. She took great care of our pups and our house and was a great communicator. I wouldn't hesitate to have her watch our dogs again.”
About: I have grown up with dogs for most of my life, I have helped raised 5 dogs in my family's home. I have learned to raise dogs since they were born. I've learned how to train them when I used to go to doggy training at petco. How to keep them active, how to play with them, relax with them, bathe them. I know such a good amount of knowledge and it still surprises me when I learn something new. I love and adore dogs. I am currently active duty, so my schedule usually ends with work off after 3 or 3:30pm. I am available weekends for whatever your animal needs. When I usually see my family and help care for the family pets, I love taking them to a park or a nice hike/walk. I think it's super important for dogs to be as active as possible (well at least untill they used up all their energy for the day) to make sure they get their bones and muscles moving to keep them healthy. Then a nice warm bath to make sure they stay clean and fresh. I usually like to spend at least a hour with redoing the tricks they have been taught. So it stays fresh in their memory and to make sure they aren't getting rusty on doing the trick. Then usually it's the end of the day, the dog had exceeded the energy for the day and it is now ready to relax. Anything you need help with for your animal can be taken care of.
About: I have had pets since I was very young. I currently have my loving Mia and she's been with me for 10 years. I will give your pets the love and attention they deserve while you're away! My pet sitting service offers personalized care, playtime, and cuddles to keep your furry friends happy and comfortable in the safety of their own home. Rest easy knowing your pets are in good hands! I do work during the week. I am an Instructional Aide for Silver Valley Unified School District. I work for one of the schools in Fort Irwin National Training Center. I can do drop-in visits during the week, but they would be after work. I have just moved to the area and I am looking to build a customer base. Whatever is normal routine for your dog! I think it’s important to maintain this balance for them while you’re away so they do not have added stress. It helps keep them feeling familiar and grounded in your absence, but I am always happy to add to that with new experiences and places. I do not have the capacity to allow clients animals into my home, yet am more than happy to travel to stay in someone’s house to care for their animals. Animals are generally more comfortable and confident in a space they are familiar with, and I am willing to travel to ensure your pet is cared for as best as possible.
About: I have cared for my own as well as family and friends dogs for years. Special needs no problem I can administer medications, give diabetic dogs shots, dog training, and teach tricks I am available 7 days a week to come to you. When you can’t be there you want someone who will give them the loving care they are used to. Keeping your pets happy and safe in their own environment is less stressful for them and they can keep their routines. Get medications on time and feed on schedule. Dogs know when it’s dinner time.
“So glad we chose Brittany to watch our dog and our house. She did an amazing job, kept us updated and sent us lots of photos. I highly recommend her and would definitely work with her again in the future.”

“Mariah did an outstanding job house sitting for me for my puppy Doberman that can be a handful to most people. Her attentiveness and care towards my dog was like if it was her own. Followed all instructions provided well and an excellent timely communicator. Will definitely book her again in the future should I need the services. Extremely satisfied with the overall experience!!”

About: Hi! I'm Emily. I own two Siamese- mixed cats named De Vil and Shadow. Throughout my life, I've taken care of a variety of pets such as dogs, cats, and chickens. My experience with these animals has given me the skills involved with handling all range of animals and ensure each and every pet is taken care of and nurtured. I am available from 6:00 am to 7:30pm, every day. I believe it's important to keep animals on a schedule, I make it a top priority to be punctual and organized. For a safe and fun adventure, I typically carry treats, water, and spare leashes. I can also follow any specific requirements and bring any special items that your pet may need. I look forward to spending time with and getting to know your pets. I recommend meet-and-greets, so your animal has a chance to get to know me, while also guaranteeing the animal's comfort and trust in the presence of its owner.
“We hired Mary to care for our two dogs while we were away for three days. We did a meet and greet and our dogs really loved the attention Mary gave them. While we were gone, Mary updated us with pictures and even brought in our Amazon packages. When we came back Mary left the house spotless. Our dogs must of had a good time because they keep going back to our guest room to look for her.”

About: I provide reliable care for both cats and dogs backed by years of hands-on work. My goal is a comfortable, no-stress experience for both you and your pet. I’ve worked with several animal rescues over the years and regularly foster animals in need. I’ve handled animals with many kinds of special needs, from bottle-feeding kittens to administering mediations to seniors. I also care for feral cats, so animals who are feisty don’t faze me! I truly love getting to know each pet I watch and making them feel as comfortable as possible while their family is away. I do my best to keep your pet(s) on their usual routine while you’re away, and always provide them with loving care. I’m patient and adaptable, personalizing care to each pet, whether that means playtime, cozy snuggles, or just keeping a calm presence nearby. I’m happy to communicate updates as much or as little as you prefer, and will send you photos so you can relax knowing your pets are safe and comfortable. Please feel free to reach out to me with any questions or special requests. I’m always open to discussing pricing, availability or anything else you’d like more information on. Talk soon! I work remotely from home. Caring for pets and spending time with them is something I have the luxury of doing throughout the day. The other work I do is flexible so caring for animals is my top priority. When boarding your pet, I provide a dedicated, comfortable space just for them, with everything they need to feel safe and at home. Each pet gets their own room (unless there are multiple from the same household) in a sanitized area, complete with cozy bedding, toys, and anything specific to their care. For dogs, I have a spacious, secure backyard where they can enjoy playtime and walks. I take the time to ensure they’re comfortable, relaxed, and loved while they’re away from home. When caring for your pet at your home, I stick to their routine, including feeding, medication, and plenty of playtime and affection. I respect your home and any guidelines you provide, making sure your pet feels safe, secure, and cherished while you’re away. And if you’d like, I’ll gladly share photo or video updates with you! I know how hard it is missing your babies when you’re away, and I’d love to help you feel at ease and show you they’re being well cared for.
“Amaya was absolutely fantastic. She was communicative, went out of her way to make our animals happy and comfy while we were gone, and left the house clean. We got lots of photos and videos of our pets during our trip, and she paid special attention to make sure one of our animals with some health issues was well taken care of. We will definitely book her again. We are more satisfied with her as a house sitter than any other we have found in our area.”
