“Koleen was awesome! She was a super fast communicator and went above and beyond what I expected for drop-in visits. Even when my pup was misbehavving (it was ny pups first time!) Koleen kept her cool and informed me of every step she took to help the situation. I felt confident having Koleen look after my pup and would highly recommend her to anyone. Thanks again!”

About: About me: I’ve lived with and cared for animals my entire life in SLO county. I believe all dogs/cats are special. Love and fun are my #1 priority with all animals-I guarantee a wonderful stay with your pets, catered to their typical daily routine! One of my most rewarding hobbies is volunteering at local animal shelters. I was trained as a volunteer at SLO County Animal Services last year which peaked my love for animal care. I shadowed Service Dog Trainer Celis Rabena at New Life K9s as part of my High school portfolio project as well last year where I learned so much about dog behavior. Ive trained and raised two rescue puppies of my own (Arrow and Ivy) into well rounded dogs. I have tons of experience working through reactivity with my own dogs and others. I possess skills like quick thinking/reacting, attention to detail, and a calm balanced state of mind with animals. I cater my skills to each animal individually and value them above anything else. I look forward to meeting new people and their pets! 🐶 I currently work from home so my availability is very open! When sitting in your home, I will need to go back to my home to care for my own animals a few times a day-depending on your distance from mine, time away from your pet(s) will most likely not be over 4 hours (feel free to reach out to coordinate if this would be a problem for you, I am happy to work something out) 🌼 While caring for your pet(s), safety is the top priority. I will never push an animal beyond their boundaries, and will always follow your instructions. I prefer to meet you and your pet(s) prior to me sitting them to ensure I know all care details. While i’m with your pet(s) I will keep you updated with photos/videos of our day(s) while you’re away (unless told otherwise) and I am happy to accommodate phone/facetime calls for you to check on your furry friends! I am 100% reachable by phone at all times- if something were to happen with your pet whilst in my care, you will be the first to know. I know exact routes to Animal Emergency Hospitals around the entire county as well as basic dog CPR and first aid. I am very respectful and responsible, your rules come first when i’m watching your pets! 🩵

“Emily does a great job with my dogs and my cat. She gives great reports and photos which show me she really cares about them and has pride in her work. She is the best.”

About: I’ve been a professional house sitter for 10 years. I had a dog of my own for about 5 years-a big beautiful german shepherd who we trained extensively. I love dogs (and cats!) but with my traveling lifestyle, I can’t commit to having my own, but I have plenty of love and energy to give to others. I’m reliable, clean, communicative and love to adventure & hike, especially with doggy friends. I have a flexible work schedule and can work around you and your pets specific needs. Happy to help with high energy dogs, older chill dogs-and everything in between. I believe animals should be treated with respect and love and consistency just like a member of the family. They are full of unconditional love and that should be returned to them.

“Edina was great! She really took the time to care for my cat, who is quite a scaredy cat! Thank you!”

“Cami was so excellent with my sweet kitty Lucy - incredibly accommodating with my last-minute requests, and so attentive to Lucy’s needs. I returned to a really content cat which is all I could ask for!”

About: I'm a licensed small-animal veterinarian retired from 40 years of clinical work. I'm comfortable with pets of all needs, including medical treatments.

About: Hi, my name is Makara! I’m a responsible and dependable college student with three years of pet sitting experience and over a decade of caring for my own cat. I understand the level of trust and attention to detail required when caring for someone’s beloved pet. I’ve provided compassionate care for both dogs and cats, including feeding, administering medications, and following detailed care instructions—all while keeping open communication with owners to ensure peace of mind. My background in Girl Scouts, athletics, and academics has helped me develop strong time management, adaptability, and reliability, making me someone pet owners can count on to treat their animals with the same care and respect I give my own. I would love the opportunity to care for your pets and give them the attention they deserve. I hope to hear from you soon! Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine because I prioritize reliability, structure, and attentiveness in everything I do. I build my schedule around the needs of each pet, allowing time for feeding, walks, play, and any special care instructions. Whether it’s a daily check-in or multiple visits throughout the week, I stay flexible and organized to ensure each pet receives consistent, loving attention. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow all provided instructions closely to ensure each pet’s routine is maintained. I create a calm, familiar environment by respecting their space and habits—whether that means sticking to specific feeding times, administering medications, or engaging in their favorite activities. I also keep the home clean and secure, and maintain open communication with the client through updates and photos to provide peace of mind while they’re away.

“Jennifer helped with walking and feeding our pug, Winnie, a couple times during a day when we were away. She was extremely responsive and eager to understand Winnie's personality and preferences. Jennifer stayed in touch so we knew when she was there and how Winnie had responded. It was very reassuring to have such an enthusiastic and concerned caregiver helping with Winnie while we were away. We will definitely plan to contact Jennifer the next time we need some help!”

About: Hello fellow pet lover, I am Rebecca and I love animals and children. I am a special education teacher by trade but my passion is pets. I have experience with all shapes and sizes of dogs, cats, horses, sheep, birds, rodents, reptiles, you name it we have owned it or helped care for it. I would love to help you with your fur babies. I am currently working a flexible remote job from home which gives me consistent availability for you. Dog walking can be scheduled as early as 6 am to as late as 8 pm.

About: I work FT, weekdays 7:30am-4:30pm, but available all other hours, and all weekend. I'm in Morro Bay, an Oregonian import, and living on a sailboat. If you don't want your dog on the water, no problem, we'll go to the beach, hikes, and dog parks. I'm happy to spend all my time with dogs, hence the low low rates. I don't mind lazy dogs, especially if house sitting, but I'd prefer the owners who want there dog to get as much fun and attention as we can so we can both be active together. I have had a dog in my life for over 30 years, I recently volunteered at a Malaysian Dog rescue (cared for 13 feral pooches). My former partner was a dog trainer (so I have extensive knowledge in the field and back up advice on hand) and our dog was a service dog that we trained. Dogs naturally like me, and I'm able to lure even the most timid dogs by way of patient and persistent love. That's why they always eventually trust me, because I genuinely love them. All of them (bad repped too, most of my dogs have been pit mixes). I'm also a great fixer and handyman if needed. Weekends are wide open, Week nights too, but weekdays I work 7-5. Weekends are wide open, Week nights are too, but weekdays I work 7-5. I'm on a sailboat, so if its home stay, pooch needs to be able to be lifted (under 60lbs). Otherwise there will be minivan rides, walks, or park play.

About: I am reliable and very responsible with all fur babies! I am confident in CPR for animals, but still working on certification. I have a deep passion for animals, and it translates through the way I interact with them! As I pursue my masters in psychology online, I like to fill my time helping out families as I raise money for my education! Currently, I have live online classes monday 3-9:30 and I am a clinical intern in the mental health field. Those work hours very, but I like to keep them strictly to Tuesdays and Thursdays. Depending on needs, I can be very flexible! Many services I provide include walking, housesitting, potty training, bathing and other basic needs. I want to keep your fur baby busy throughout the day!!

About: As the token "animal lover" friend and family member, I've been the go-to for all things caretaker since I was young. It's my pleasure and joy to spend time with animals; I'm extremely attentive, love to give pets and cuddle. As a pet owner myself, I always worry if the sitters I have to watch my babies are going to be attentive enough and really ensure that they feel loved-- so that's always my MO. I currently work from home with a super flexible schedule, so I'm easily able to accommodate last minute requests as well as regularly scheduled visits for your fur babies! I'm a cuddler, and love to go on multiple daily walks myself, so you never have to worry about me just "checking the box" and leaving. I love to hang around, am very present with my visits, and big on cuddles. I believe I'm the perfect fit for anyone who wants to make sure their fur babies are well loved and seeking lots of pets/ attention. When taking care of another's fur baby, I always strive to meet the animal where they are and ensure that they feel as comfortable as possible as I know missing mom and dad can be hard and produce anxiety. I'm big on giving cuddles, attention, keeping them busy and going for walks, etc. More than happy to administer medication, stick to any special routines, and keep things as "normal" as possible. I'm extremely reliable and responsible; caretaking is one of my callings in this life and I thoroughly enjoy being that resource for others :)
