“I am beyond pleased with the exceptional care and attention that our male dog walker provided to my two schnauzers. In just two walks, it is evident that he genuinely cares for them. His sweet demeanor and dedication make him a standout choice. I will definitely be utilizing his services again”

About: For the last 6 years I have had different friends and family rely on me for dog, cat, and rabbit care. I have been responsible for scheduled feedings, bathing, walks, and of course playing and quality time. My goal is always to be communicative, reliable, and adaptable to any and all of your pets individual needs. I currently work full-time in retail with a schedule that varies per week, but would love to use any of my free time and days off to spend with pets. All shifts are 8 hours or less and I am more than willing to make time before or after (or both) any of my shifts. My biggest priority in any situation is to remain communicative and careful, as I understand what it’s like to have your pet in somebody else’s care. In cases of pet-sitting in your home I can be trusted to be respectful of all belongings, keeping a clean space, and going above and beyond care instructions. In cases of boarding in my home, I live in a two story house in the hills of Scotts Valley with two other animal-loving housemates. We have a large fenced backyard on a hill and plenty of hiking trails nearby to stay active.

About: I have experience with dogs of all sizes and all ages! I grew up training and caring for a strong and stubborn German Shepherd. In the past few years, I’ve lived with a Retriever puppy - training him to be a sociable young man that goes potty outside. I’m the go-to for my friends and family when it comes to pet sitting. They trust me with their fur babies and appreciate how I maintain the routine their pet is familiar with. I work fully remote, so I have lots of flexibility when it comes to walks, playtime, and housesitting! On weekdays, I’m most available after 11:00am PT. I’m occasionally available on weekends! I want to care for your pet in the way you do! Please fill me in on their routine and their sensitivities! I want them to care for them in a way that feels familiar and safe.

About: I've been pet sitting for family and friends forever and like to say I am pretty reliable. I also have experience with farm animals as I have raised a few myself. Animals tend to like me, what can I say I have a way with them. I am currently a student at UCSC. My schedule is pretty set for the next 3 months. I am open to working holidays as my family don't celebrate. I have a smaller apartment that I share with others. One of my roommate is a fellow pet sitter. I have all the equipment required to care for another cat temporarily.

About: • 🐶 Experience with pets of all ages and temperaments, including seniors and rescues • ❤️ Reliable communication — I’ll always keep you updated with messages, photos, and peace of mind • 🏠 Respectful of your home and routine, keeping everything just the way you left it I have full availability at the moment and I have my own reliable source of transportation. I am very much open to communicating to work out scheduling With years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats and I treat every pet like they’re my own. I’m not just here to feed and walk your pet, I’m here to give them love, attention, and a safe, stress-free environment while you’re away. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care. My goal is to make you feel 100% confident that your furry friend is in loving, capable hands.

About: I have taken care of dogs my whole life. I currently check on and feed a family friends dogs on the weekends when needed, I always leave the space how I found it and make sure the dogs have enough water and haven't gotten into anything they are not supposed to, I have experience with difficult dogs and have been researching dog behavior and training these past 3 years. I take every job I'm given very seriously and I am dedicated to the safety and well being of any animal I am responsible for, and I am more than willing to follow any special instructions in regards to your animal. every dog is different and I aim to give the best care to every dog put in my care. I am open to caring for dogs that need extra special care and attention such as reactivity or anxiety, or likely to run away if given the chance. I look forward helping out with your animals in whatever way I can. I work 2 days a week, and go to school 3 days a week, but I have lots of downtime on the weekends and evenings during the week when caring for animals in your home I will always double check that doors are closed and lights are off/on, and leave everything the way it was when I got there, as well as making sure your dog hasn't gotten into anything.

About: I am a responsible, nurturing and kind individual who loves all animals. I have owned small dogs, large dogs, a cat, aquatic pets, and taken care of many of my friends', family members' pets and been referred to many to care for their dogs and cats. In my last relationship I took full responsibility for three large dogs, one which was a rescue adopted as a puppy, (feeding, administering medications, training, exercise, bathing, grooming, vet visits) for about 5 years. I am currently working part-time and taking a break from school while I prepare to apply to a health profession program. This gives me a very open and flexible schedule, allowing me to accommodate a variety of pet care needs, including morning, afternoon, evening, weekend, and overnight care. Because of my flexible availability, I can devote plenty of time and attention to your pet, ensuring they stay on their normal routine with regular walks, playtime, feeding, potty breaks, and lots of love and companionship. I look forward to working with you and providing your pet with the compassionate, dependable care they deserve while you're away! I provide loving, reliable pet care in your home using your pet's own supplies to help keep their routine as normal as possible. I use the food, treats, toys, bedding, leashes, litter, medications, and any other pet essentials you provide, so I don't bring my own pet supplies. This helps your pet stay comfortable in their familiar environment while you're away. I live in a quiet, small neighborhood with about 0.75 acres of yard space and keep a clean, tidy home with plenty of room for pets to roam and relax. If boarding or daycare is arranged at my home, I will use any pet supplies you provide to maintain your pet's routine and comfort. Whether I'm caring for your pet in your home or mine, I'll follow your instructions closely and treat your pet like family, giving them plenty of attention, exercise, and affection.

“Great work & care!”

About: I have sixteen 5 star reviews on Trusted House Sitters (along with my wife Allison who joins me on most dog and cat sits.) We have taken care of dogs of various sizes as well as a lot of cats. We both work remotely which makes us very flexible for pet care. I can work remotely from anywhere on my laptop (part time!) which allows me plenty of time to care for your dog or cat. After my years as a Trusted House Sitter, my goal is to spend most of my time dedicated to caring for animals as they are my passion so they will be my number one priority! I care for your pets in your home, I will be in most of the day working online so they will get plenty of potty breaks and attention. I am always available to contact and will make sure you receive photos and updates multiple times a day.

About: I have taken care of pets for quite some time. I grew up on a farm, so I have been around all sorts of animals all my life. I recently moved back here to the valley from Santa Cruz. Will be here for a year or so. When I was in Santa Cruz I volunteer for the animal shelter there. I recently moved here from Santa Cruz, and will be starting work at the school in the fall, so I am looking to do some pet sitting, and dog walking, during the summer. I have a fenced yard, but I am not doing pet care at my home at this time. I am sharing home with family members

About: I’ve lived with dogs all my life and regularly volunteer at the Santa Cruz County Animal Shelter. Please let me know if you have any questions. Good with all types of dogs. Not afraid of those who pull! I currently have full availability as school has been my full time job until now. I am willing to do visits at all times of day, no time too early or late. I do best with specific instructions on how to care for your pet so I can make them as comfortable as possible. I’d love to meet your pet ahead of time if it makes you more comfortable. Just reach out.

“First time using Rover and so glad we picked Jasmine! She is quick to respond and so kind. It’s always nervewracking to let someone you’ve never met into your home while you’re away, but I know Mika was in good hands and we’ll definitely be booking with Jasmine again in the future. She took lots of photos during the walk and followed our instructions - even opened the door for our cat so she could roam around while they were away. I could tell from the photos that Mika had so much fun and let out all of the midday zoomies :)”

About: I have plenty of personal experience in caring for animals, growing up with pets my entire life as well as currently having a dog of my own. Ive always had a deep love and interest in learning about and caring for animals. Ive pet sat for family/friends and have experience with other species such as rodents and reptiles. I have a great passion for working with animals and would love the opportunity to pet sit or dog walk for you! I work a part time job but I do have a flexible schedule and can always work with whatever dates or times you would need! At your home I would spend time with your pet, keeping them busy with any activity that suits their personality best whether it be laying down getting pets, playing with enrichment toys, going for a walk or playing fetch! My home would be a very similar experience, I live in a safe neighborhood for walks, and also have a fenced yard.

About: I’ve got experience dog-sitting, and dog-walking, as well as living with dogs and love when I get the chance to take care of them. I’ve had a dog my entire life until her recent passing and have loved and cared for all animals even before I got one. I’m incredibly comfortable with dogs of all sizes, types, and temperaments. This includes sick dogs with medication, senior pups, and various exercise needs. I have saved my dog from a life-threatening attack and provided intensive care, so I work well in a potentially contentious environment. I’m a full time student but my schedule is incredibly loose. I get to choose when I work on my senior project and go to class so I’m available whenever essentially. I only have to be in class Monday and Wednesday from 5-7! Other than that feel free to schedule me. I have a wonderful medium sized fenced yard and live close to Westlake park which has ample grass and play area. My roommates do live with me but are comfortable with the situation and all dog-friendly!

About: With a deep-rooted passion for canine care, I have honed my skills across a diverse range of breeds, including Australian Shepherds, German Shepherds, Labradors, and Pomeranians. My approach combines meticulous attention to detail with a compassionate touch, ensuring that each dog receives personalized care tailored to their unique temperament and needs. Whether managing the exuberance of a young pup or offering gentle support to senior dogs, I provide a level of care that goes beyond routine pet sitting. What distinguishes me is my unwavering commitment to creating a safe, nurturing environment where every dog feels valued and at ease, making me a trusted partner in your pet’s well-being. Pet care is an integral part of my daily and weekly routine, seamlessly woven into my schedule to ensure consistent, attentive service. I prioritize ample time for walks, feeding, play, and any special needs your pet may have. My days are structured to accommodate both regular appointments and last-minute requests, providing flexibility while maintaining a steady routine. Whether it’s a morning walk, midday check-in, or overnight boarding, I manage my time to ensure every pet receives the attention and care they deserve, making them my top priority throughout the week. Safety, trust, and a nurturing environment are the cornerstones of my pet care approach. Whether in my home or a client’s, I prioritize creating a secure and comfortable space where pets feel at ease. In my home, I maintain a pet-friendly environment, free from hazards, with designated areas for play, rest, and feeding. I carefully supervise interactions, ensuring each pet's safety and well-being. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their routines and space, maintaining familiar surroundings that promote a sense of security. I am meticulous about following any specific care instructions and maintain open communication with pet owners to build trust. My goal is to provide peace of mind, knowing their beloved pets are in capable, caring hands.

About: I have taken care of animals as long as I can remember. At 12 I raised my first service dog, and since raised another service dog through Guide Dogs of America. I have house/dog/cat/bunny sat for animals of all ages and temperaments. I am excited to meet your furry, or not so furry, friend! I am currently working part time so I will have lots of time to take care of your pups. I am more than happy to discuss scheduling. I am comfortable with many different environments. Personally, I have a fenced in backyard which allows for plenty of outdoor running room. If there are certain things you need done for your dog just let me know.
