Pet Sitting in Blairsden

“Very responsible and a definite animal lover - not just a job for her!”

About: Over my years I've had different breeds of dogs, and other animals in many different enviroments. Animals approach me out of nowhere. Training animals comes easy to me, I'm patient, thural, and dedicated. Falconry dogs, working class dogs, and even the little ones. Animals are my life, they come first and they love me. Give the dog time to come to me and it'll never leave my side. Follow the owners instructions. Make sure the dog always has water, fed on time, potty breaks, and time outside. Learn the dog and learn how to take care of it.

About: I have a unique background with horses, farm animals, and dogs that want to walk all day in the forest. I grew up with cats and dogs my whole life. I have fostered kittens, boarded cats, and stayed with dogs up to 200 pounds. I am available overnight for weekends, nights, and extended periods between Nevada County and Placer County. I usually stay a week or more with fur babies. You can relax knowing I am keeping the utmost care and safety of your animals and home. I want to clarify during our visit if you need care at the 2-hour, 4-hour, or 6-hour interval beyond the overnight stay of 7 pm to 7am. I am currently available most days and nights due to my online graduate program. Communication is key! I will send daily pictures or updates. For best prevention, talking about the details with the owner and ground rules produces the best results. Topics will include where the pet feels most comfortable such a calm spaces or crating procedures. I make sure to go over emergency contacts and preferred clinics. Also, I keep a clean environment that ensures the safety of pets for food handling.

About: I have had my own pets starting at a very young age, trained, rescued, volunteered at pet foundations and charities, and helped my old vet before he retired in Las Vegas for many years. Animals are my passion! I am retired and available now with an open schedule for your needs. I live with my one Beloved Cat who is tolerant of my comings and goings. First and foremost, my way of doing things is to take care of your furry baby the same way you have been doing with the same routine that you already established. This cuts down on the stress level of you being absent. I want your pet to feel loved and safe!

“Sondra checked in on our 16 week puppy Kai while we did some holiday shopping and did a wonderful job playing & feeding him during the quick visit. I can tell Sondra is very compassionate to dogs. We hope to book her in the future!”

About: I have owned and cared for pets my entire life. I'm recently retired from a long career as a professional equestrian and horse trainer, and I'm excited to begin this journey of offering pet care services to the community! I have experience with all types and ages of pets ... from very young to very senior. I have experience administering medications, giving injections, and basic first aid. My lifestyle is active, and I'm happy to provide whatever exercise that your pet needs, whether that is a long trail hike, or simply walks around the neighborhood. And lots of love and snuggles of course :) I also have extensive horse experience, and limited experience with other livestock, and I'm happy to provide services for those animals as well. I currently work from home and have an extremely flexible schedule, which allows me to work around whatever your pet care needs are. I have a reliable 4 wheel drive vehicle, so I can get to some of the further out Nevada County destinations no problem. I pride myself on being punctual, organized and reliable, and you can rest assured that your pet(s) and home will receive attentive and loving care. I am happy to take care of any additional tasks that you might need around your home while you're away (checking mail, taking out trash, watering plants/garden, etc. )

About: I volunteered at a disabled and elderly dog rescue. I have fish and snails right now and I've medicated them and given some physical therapy to one. I saved a wasp and bees, I absolutely love nature of all kinds. I can help with training, walk your dog, and do some check-ins while you're away or stay overnight if you need. I work from home as an artist and have a now toddler but we have child care if needed. I sadly cannot board in the small apartment I live in but I can walk your dog to a park and or around the community yard.

About: I’ve taken care of pets of every kind since I was a kid. From dogs and cats to birds and turtles. Animals have always been a magical part of my life. Weekly animals are a huge part of my life. From caring for my own, to walking dogs and watching animals while their families are away. We live in a neighborhood that is very close to lots of great trails for hiking. My dog Abby loves making friends as do my kids.

About: I am an active, mature, loving, and reliable caregiver, and I will give your pet(s) the care, attention and love that I would give my own. I am retired from the State of California, looking to supplement my retirement, and fill my empty time caring for pets. My schedule is open and flexible. My love for dogs goes back to my childhood. I am hoping to fill my free time caring for your pet(s) while you are away from the home. Pets need attention and love, let me provide what your pet needs during your absence. I can also provide light housekeeping, light shopping, and meal prep if needed, for an additional charge. I have completed a thorough background. I am retired and have an open calendar. My days and evenings are flexible, which hopefully meets you and your pet (s) needs. I do attend church on most Sunday mornings, but if needed, I can attend online services. I have a clean and comfortable home with a completely fenced in patio, as well as a well groomed walking path and dog park in my area. I always pay close attention to my surroundings during outings.

About: I have 3 dogs and 1 cat and have had pets all my life. I pet sit for friends and family when needed, even pets that require medication. I’m in the medical field so I’m not afraid of that. I like to travel and open to areas outside of Reno/Tahoe with sufficient notice. I do work full time. I’m off at 3pm. Im available after 3pm and in the evening M-F to go to your home and open on the weekends. I love to travel and drive or fly to LA almost every month. I can expand my weekend availability for house sitting if given sufficient notice (at least a week) for areas outside of Reno/Carson/Tahoe. House sitting is like a mini vacation for me since I have grown adult children that I ADORE but…mama needs alone time, with animals 🐶🐱 I’m available to do drop ins and over night on the weekends in your home. I can take your furry loved ones for walks in the neighborhood or to the dog park and around the river if that’s okay. I do have the perfect size pet friendly backyard and lots of toys for little field trips for play dates with my pups.

About: Animals have always been a big part of my life. I’ve cared for dogs, cats, chickens, ducks, turkeys, goats, and even more exotic pets in both urban homes and rural off-grid environments. Whether it’s walks, belly rubs, or administering medicine, I treat every animal as a unique being with their own personality and needs. Friends and community members often turn to me for pet care because they know I genuinely love and respect animals as soulful companions. As an entrepreneur with a flexible schedule, I’m available for daytime visits, overnight stays, and extended care. I work remotely and manage my own hours, so I can easily tailor my availability to your pet’s routine—including last-minute needs or irregular schedules. Your pet’s well-being is my top priority. I offer a calm, loving, and secure environment where your animals can feel safe and at ease. I take time to learn your pet’s specific needs, preferences, and routines to make sure they feel comfortable and cared for in your absence. I’m attentive to behavioral cues and quick to adapt to ensure trust is never broken. Whether we’re enjoying outdoor play or snuggling indoors, I create a grounded and peaceful space for them to thrive.

About: My partner and I both grew up with cats and dogs in our households and we love pet sitting! We do not have any animals of our own due to frequent travel and not wanting the long-term commitment at this point in life, but Rover a great opportunity to fill the void of not having animals around. My boyfriend works remotely and I work on a hybrid schedule with the opportunity to come home for lunch on the days I’m in office. We have ample time to tend to pets and we enjoy getting outside for walks to break up our workdays. Having grown up with many pets, I'm comfortable with them being on furniture and having them feel at home in my space. I believe the best way for animals to feel comfortable is by sticking to their normal daily schedule.

About: I had a very reactive and anxious dog for years. I know that some fur babies require extra love and care and am happy to give yours anything they require. I am very flexible. My full time job is remote so I can be available to stay with your animals or just hop over and check on them. Whichever you prefer. I am very flexible. I can come to where your pets live and stay with them, or I can bring them to my place if you prefer. Or I can just visit them through out the days if you prefer.

I make my dogs food but totally respect all dog food choices you may make.
