Pet Sitting Belmont Shore

About: I have been taking care of many animals all my life. I have taken care of pretty much every pet you can think of from pigeons, cats, dogs, lizards, bunnies, all, and all the way to horses and cows. Needless to say I have a lot of experience and would love to help out in anyway I can! I am a member of the United States Coast Guard, and have a pretty set schedule Monday through Thursday. I am able to do mornings before nine and afternoons after two. I will not be able to take animals back to my place unfortunately seeing as my apartment has strict rules against animals being in my apartment complex complex

About: I've loved animals all of my life, and I am ready to make myself available to help your fur baby and your home be perfectly cared for! I've done mostly drop-ins and walking but I'm comfortable with an overnight stay as well. I love being around animals, and would love to take care of yours! I am currently walking 2 dogs 3 times a week in the evenings, working part time, and I'm in school as well but I am more than willing to help! I’m currently relying on work here while I’m in between jobs! I’ve recently finished up my school work for a degree as well, so I have a lot of free time to dedicate to you and your pets. I have 3 cats at home so I would not be able to board other animals, however, I would be more than happy to stop by to check on your beloved pets at your own home and spend some time with them whether it be with walks or playing!

“Wolfie is a rescue and he is super nervous around humans, but learning. Jen is the first person besides us to walk Wolfie. She definitely helped Wolfie make progress. Wolfie went from barking at her upon meeting her to adoring her at the end of the walk. Jen is super chill and great at observing a dog’s behavior and adjusting to his/her needs. Overall a 10/10.”

About: I’ve spent much of my adult life in roles where people trusted me with things that mattered to them like their homes, businesses, teams and even careers. I spent my undergraduate years as an Assistant Property Manager before becoming an LAX operations leader and former full-time recruiter, and I bring that same sense of responsibility to more than 10 years of caring for pets. I have especially good experience with senior animals: more than half of the dogs and cats I’ve cared for have been seniors. I love their personalities and am comfortable adjusting to slower walks, medication schedules, established routines and the little preferences that become especially important as pets get older. Even re-potty training them! At the other end of the spectrum, I’m an active person and outrigger paddler, so energetic dogs are very welcome too. Long walks, play and outdoor time fit my lifestyle after having been in grad school in upstate New York. My approach is individualized. My experience has taught me how much better the outcome is when you listen first, ask good questions and understand what constitutes a good fit. Pets aren’t any different. I want to learn their personality and normal routine so I can meet them where they are. My goal is for you to come home thinking, "My pets and home are happy, healthy, safe and ready for me to come back without skipping a beat." My schedule is flexible, and I plan my day around each pet’s routine. I often work from my computer remotely during the day and have broad availability for walks, drop-ins and house sitting. I do have activities outside the home, including early-morning outrigger paddling, but I make sure feeding, potty breaks, medication and other important routines are taken care of first. For house sitting, I’m generally a good fit for pets who are comfortable alone for 4–6 hours at a time, or longer when that is already part of their normal routine. I’m happy to talk through your pet’s schedule before booking and adjust where I reasonably can. I like to begin with a meet-and-greet so I can understand your pet’s normal behavior, routine, medications, household setup and emergency plan before care begins. I review instructions carefully and ask questions upfront that may include how you want me to communicate if something unexpected happens. I pay attention to changes that can be easy to miss, from unusual itching or appetite changes to changes in energy, bathroom habits or behavior, and I’ll let you know when something seems out of the ordinary. I’m equally conscientious with the home itself. I’m a “leave it better than you found it” person. I keep the spaces I use tidy, handle mail and packages according to your preferences, take out trash, water plants and care for linens when appropriate. If you already have cleaners, gardeners or other small business service providers, I’m happy to work around the systems you already have.

About: Hi there! I’m a Boston Terrier owner and dog-lover in Belmont Shore. I like to stay active and I would love to take your dog on a walk (my dog is lazy and would rather stay home!). Some places I like to dog-walk are the green belt and the beach path. I’m very experienced in taking care of short-nosed dogs. I can't wait to meet your pup! I work remote so my schedule is very flexible. For daycare, I typically take dogs out for a midday walk and then they can relax in the house or yard while I work. I have a small, fenced front yard that I allow dogs to spend time in with supervision. I have a small dog (Boston Terrier) that will also be in the home if you book daycare. He is very friendly and enjoys other dogs after a few minutes warming up to them!

About: I’ve always enjoyed being around animals and understand how important it is to have someone you can trust with your pets. I’m responsible, patient, and attentive to each pet’s individual needs. I’m happy to help with feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and keeping pets comfortable while their owners are away. I’ll follow any instructions you provide and make sure your pets receive plenty of attention and care. I’m a college student with a flexible schedule throughout most of the week, which gives me plenty of time for pet care, house sitting, walks, feeding, playtime, and potty breaks. On Tuesdays and Thursdays, I have classes from around 12:00 PM to 8:30 PM, so my availability is more limited during those hours. I’m available before and after class and will always communicate my schedule before accepting a booking to make sure I can meet your pet’s needs. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I will always respect their home and follow the instructions they provide. I’ll make sure pets are fed on schedule, have fresh water, get their regular walks and potty breaks, and receive plenty of attention. I’ll also keep owners updated so they can feel comfortable knowing their pets are being well cared for.

About: I grew up with a mini dachshund and currently have a pug. I pet sit all the time for friends and family, including my sister who has a dog, 2 cats, 2 rabbits, fish, and the list keeps going. I've pet sat both at my apartment and house sat in a pet's home. At my apartment, I've dog sat for up to a month! My little pug loves having a new buddy around to play, go on walks, and snuggle with. My pug is my life. I work from home and she's always by my side, following me everywhere. Every morning we go for a walk around the Naples canals in Long Beach after she has her breakfast. During the day, she mostly snuggles on my lap or entertains herself if we don't have another buddy visiting us. We take breaks to get fresh air and take potty breaks at the beach. In the afternoon, we'll usually go on a shorter walk before or after dinner. I try to take her with me anywhere I go, even if it's just a short errand where she can enjoy a car ride. On the occasions I can't take her with me, she has full reign of the apartment, but I think she spends most of her time snuggled on the couch with soft blankets and pillow. When I need to be away from her for longer than usual, I usually coordinate to have her visit one of her nearby buddies or stay with my mom & sister where she gets to play with little my niece and nephew, their dog, and enjoy being around lots of other free roaming animals (chickens, bunnies, cats) If I'm at a client's home, I ensure I'm informed about all the places the pet(s) like to go, where their favorite toys are, and where their food & medicine is. If I'm pet sitting for an extended period of time, or more than just a daily check-in, my pug will be with me. She loves being around big dogs or small dogs, is very submissive, loves to play, but is also ok giving space if the other pet is not interested. If a backyard is available, I love to be outdoors and get the dogs some exercise by playing ball or tag. If an enclosed area isn't available, your dog will always be leashed. On walks, I'm conscientious about our surroundings. I pay attention to any rogue "snacks" in our path and other dogs approaching. I always ask another dog owner if their dog is friendly and if mine can say hi. If they're not, it's no problem! We'll continue on and cross the street if need be. My walks with my pug tend to be longer in time and fairly slow moving, making lots of stops to sniff. Sniffing is an important activity for any dog, and expends a lot of energy, so I stop as long as my dog wants to sniff at certain spot so she can get her fill. I'll treat your dog with the same respect and care as I provide my own.

“Shelli did a wonderful job with check ins for our dog while we were out of town. She’s great at communicating and keeping us updated with pictures and comments at each check in.”

About: I have volunteered for the past five years fostering animals and socializing with cats at the SPCA. I have always been extremely passionate about caring for all types of animals. I am currently studying Biological Sciences with a focus in zoology. I have experience with pet sitting and also house sitting my whole life. I love spending my spare time with animals and will make sure to keep them and your house safe! I love going on walks everyday and I know that having a dog to walk would make it 1,000 times better! I grew up with having 2 dogs, 3 goats, and 5 cats! Having animals around to give my attention to makes me extremely happy. I can't wait to meet you and your pets!

About: My name is Andy! I am a young professional who works from home in the Belmont Shore neighborhood of Long Beach, CA. I have a Boston Terrier and grew up with 2 labs. I walked dogs for various families throughout high school and college and have volunteered at Wagtime doggy daycare in Washington, D.C. I am an enthusiast and experienced dog-walker and care-taker. My love for dogs will be evident the first time you meet me! I am also responsible, punctual, and trust-worthy. You can count me on me to not only hold our appointments, but go above and beyond for you and your pup. Your dog's safety and happiness are very important to me, and I pay close attention to details like medical/physical needs and comfort-level around other dogs. After a session, you can count on me to lock your home and leave it exactly as I found it out, with the addition of a well-walked and happy dog. I work full-time from home and have flexible availability during the week and on weekends. I'm also open to nighttime visits. I love a good night walk! I have a 4 year old Boston Terrier who means the world to me. I also grew up with an elderly lab with arthritis in her legs. I know how much dogs mean to their pet owners (parents, really). It's very important to me that your dog is happy and that you can go about your day worry-free knowing I'm taking good care of your pet.

About: I have a huge heart for all animals. I grew up with lots of different pets, including dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, and lizards. I currently have two cats named Ghibli and Kiki, and they are my entire world! Because of them, I understand the importance of having a caring and reliable pet sitter, and I want to be that person for other pet owners. As someone who has taken care of many pets over the years, I know that every pet has their own personality and needs. I take instructions seriously and appreciate detailed notes regarding your pet's routine/needs so I can make sure they receive the care they are accustomed to. I'm also great at improvising, I have good judgment and can read animals well. Whatever your pet needs, whether it is walks, enrichment, meals, or just some love and attention, I got you covered. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your pets are in the caring and reliable hands of someone who will treat your babies like my own. I work remotely, which allows me to fit pet care into my daily routine. I can easily accommodate regular walks, feeding schedules, playtime, potty breaks, and snuggles. I will prioritize your pet’s safety by following their normal routine as closely as possible. In a client’s home, I’ll follow all instructions regarding feeding, walks, playtime, medications, and any specific needs or preferences your pet has. I’m attentive to changes in behavior and always use good judgment when it comes to safety.

“Erin is so reliable and caring with our Golden. We also appreciate her grace around our constantly changing schedules! We cannot recommend her highly enough.”

About: I have experience with many types of animals in the past few years. From large dogs such as huskies, golden retrievers to bulldogs. To smaller dogs such as Shih Tzu, Frenchies and even new born puppies! I also have experience with bird care and rodents. A love for animals means to give them the best quality care. I am currently working part time with mid day-closing shifts. I tend to have 2-3 days off a weeks, which allows me to be able to have dedicated time to take care of people’s furry babies. I am very aware of my surroundings so when it comes to client homes. I’ll keep a good eye on not just the pet, but the care for the home. Any loose toys, objects or cables will be protected and remain out of sight of the pet for their safety. I’ll take care and make sure your pet has the fun they need, while maintaining a tidy home.
