About: I've have lived with pets for most of my adulthood. Roommates, friends and family have trusted me in caring for their pets. I had my very own Akita, Koa, even with stubbornness he obeyed commands. Parks or even backyard fun are provided. I've been able to provide easy any pet care worries for those trying to vacation or just need someone to cover for a feeding I currently work nights, so early morning walks or evenings strolls are ideal. On my weekends off, more play time or longer visits are available. I'll feed your dog, provided company, crate and medicate, if needed. I'll take walks or let a dog run around and play to burn some energy. Cats are not excluded...I just know some are more selective but I'll feed them and give them some attention.
8. Samantha O.
“Sammi is the most sweet and wonderful person I have ever met. She is patient and kind hearted, and is always focused on the wellbeing of the pets in her care. She's a very focused and driven person and she will be a joy for your pets to be around. I would highly recommend her to take care of my pets, I know that they would be well cared for and their health, comfort, and fun would all be considered. She has had a diverse range of pets and experiences with animals, I trust that if she takes my pets they return happy, well exercised, and properly cared for. She is patient enough to handle any pet, and energetic enough to run with the most hyper puppies!”
9. Lauren M.
“Lauren took care of Dakota by dropping in 3 times a day for an hour each time. I cannot recommend her enough. Dakota easily bonded with her and seemed to just know she was a good human! Lauren arrived promptly and sent me pictures throughout the day. Texting me with updates as requested. She’s awesome! I will definitely be booking her again in the future! :)”
10. Mallory M.
About: I love dogs and cats! I personally have 3 cats of my own. Two of my cats are now 13 years old and I’ve raised them since they were kittens. I’m very experienced with animal care and I respect and abide by all pets boundaries. I follow directions well and will treat your beloved family member with great care. I’m working part time and have a lot of free time and no schooling at the moment! This means I have a lot of time on my hands to care for your fur babies! I cannot board any pets at my home, but I can definitely follow all instructions such as crating, feeding, playing and walking pets at a clients home!
11. Allyson J.
About: Growing up, at any given time we had at least one pet in the house: dogs, cats, rabbits, hamsters. I have a very calm demeanor and can read animal body language and cues very well. I have been pet sitting on and off for most of my life. As a teenager I ran a pet sitting business in our neighborhood. I currently own one cat of my own, but get my dog fix caring for others! I have experience with medical cases as well, including administering pills and medications, incontinence, and subQ fluid infusions. I will treat your baby like my own <3 I currently live and work in Long Beach. I manage my own schedule so my time is very flexible, I can typically accommodate last minute requests or changes and can be available for frequent visits, walks, medication needs, etc. I am a lifelong pet owner with experience with large dogs and small dogs as I grew up with retrievers and pugs. As an adult living in a rented apartment I can currently only own cats. I have been pet sitting on and off since I was a teenager and can provide several references. I used to work for the American Red Cross and am trained in pet CPR and First Aid. Professionally, I have been working in the field of emergency preparedness for around 15 years, so I am very safety oriented. I am not a risk taker and will follow your care instructions precisely and send daily updates and photos as desired.
12. Shawn C.
“Shawn is awesome! He took great care of our shy 13 year old cat. He found ways to engage her though she was always in hiding and even tracked her down to take pictures. Bubbles was healthy and happy when we returned and everything was left in order. Do not hesitate to book Shawn. He genuinely cares about pets, is punctual, and trustworthy.”
13. Mary M.
“Mary has consistently gone above and beyond my expectations. Her genuine love for animals is evident in the way she interacts with my cat Rosey always ensuring shes well-fed, entertained, loved and given plenty of attention. I receive regular updates and photos, which gives me peace of mind knowing my cat Rosey is happy and safe with Mary. I highly recommend Mary to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet watcher!"”
