Dog Sitting in California

“My family used for 3 pop in visits to our home. She fed and did potty breaks every 4 hours for our great dane and beagle. She did a meet and greet before hand to get information and see the dogs. She even dropped off a piece of clothing at my request so our dogs would be used to her scent. I was very pleased with the service and will be using her again to watch our fur babies in the future. This was during the holidays.”

“Zenie is such a sweet and kind soul! She was really great about sending updates with photos of our pups. Zenie also did a great job at cleaning up muddy prints from the floor since it was a little rainy while we were away. 😊 She even left a such a thoughtful note and "ducked" me since she is a fellow Jeeper. We look forward to booking with her again!!”

About: Hi! I’m Alicia (I go by my middle name) and I’m an animal lover who has had dogs in my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve owned dogs for the last 16 years, and I truly can’t imagine a home without them. I currently share my life with Cruz and Azalea, 8-year-old litter mates who originally came to me as foster puppies through a local rescue. I quickly became a proud “foster fail” after falling completely in love with them! My dogs are my family, and the best part of my day is winding down together, all cuddled up on the couch. There are no children in our home, so visiting dogs receive plenty of calm, consistent attention, affection, and companionship. Whether your pup needs a cozy place to stay, a reliable sitter, or someone who understands the little things that make dogs feel safe and happy, I’m here to help. I treat every dog like my own and will make sure your furry family member feels right at home. I maintain personal liability coverage specifically for pet sitting. Since I have a small dog in my home, dogs over 40lbs will be considered on a case by case basis. A meet and greet is required for all dogs over 40lbs. I work full-time in the office, with occasional telework days. Fortunately, my office is only ten minutes from home, so I’m able to come back each day during my lunch break to let the dogs out for a potty break and some playtime. My husband is a self-employed electrical contractor, and there are times when he’s home while I’m at work. When either of us is home, the dogs are taken out at least every two hours. We have a fully fenced yard and two friendly pups of our own. Because they experience a bit of separation anxiety, our dogs relax in their kennels when no one is home. For that reason, I ask that any dogs staying with us are crate trained as well. Crates are only used when the house is empty. Otherwise, all dogs are free to enjoy the home and make themselves comfortable.

About: Very experienced 20 plus years dog owner and dog lover! We bread our KCC and now have 2 beautiful small gentle dogs. Your pet is welcome in our home. Or I can visit them in yours. I have two children age 9 and 13 who have had dogs all their lives. Love all dogs and are very good at caring and playing with them! I am a stay at home mum. Originally from Ireland and live in Wildewoods. I have flexibility to cater for your Dogs needs. Communication will be first class to reassure you on your time apart. Large home. My two small dogs will offer company or indeed I can visit your home if your dog prefers solo walks and to stay in familiar surroundings. We have a fenced back garden and live in a quiet neighbourhood.

“Rosie was quickly responsive to my last minute request, was prompt, sent pictures, and communicated a concern that helped make her care the best for our Natty. Thank you, Rosie!”

About: I absolutely love all animals!! I have a Beagle that is great with other dogs and children! I work from home and have a large fenced yard that dogs love! I am ready and available to host your pups for overnight needs or come walk your dog(s) so that you can focus on other needs! If I host your dog overnight, I prefer a housetrained pup but am flexible with that. Expect lots of pictures while your furry family member is here ! I work from home so will be home throughout the day, with the exception of short errands runs. If your pupper needs a crate, please feel free to bring one! Large fenced yard for lots of outdoor time. I have dog beds throughout the house for sleeping, and dogs beds outside for lounging and sunbathing!

“Mary Rose took great care of my kitties. They were not intimidated by her presence and allowed her to take pictures and get petted. She is very professional, calm and compassionate. I will contact her if I need her another time.”

“Thank you so much for taking such great care of my pups. They are my family and knowing you were taking such great care of them while I was away was such a relief! Thank you again!!”

About: I have a golden retriever of my own, and have been dog sitting, walking and taking care of other families and friends dogs for about 5 years. I am home from college for the summer, and taking classes at night. I am available during the day and mornings, and have fairly open weekends. I have experience walking pets, feeding them, giving them medication if needed, or just spending time with them while their owners are away! I love sending photos and videos to their owners while they are away.

“Wonderful daily updates and great overall care/price. Definitely will rebook!”

Ted S.

“Was so nice to trust that Sarah was taking care of our cat while we were out of town, including giving her nightly meds and the extra love and attention she needs. Sarah sent picture and video updates with every drop in visit, and was patient and understanding with a key mishap. Thanks so much!”

“Charlie was great! She sent daily photos of the cats and dog and texted any time she had concerns. I would not hesitate to use her again or recommend her.”

About: With 15 years of experience, animals aren’t just my job, they’re my world. I bring genuine love and dedication to every pet in my care, whether they’re a playful pup, a curious kitten, or a wise senior companion. Beyond standard sitting services, I offer full grooming care including bathing, brushing, nail trims, teeth cleaning, and ear cleaning, so your pet comes home not just happy, but fresh and well-tended. Having these skills in-house means less stress for your pet and more convenience for you. Cats and dogs both hold a special place in my heart, and after 15 years, I’ve learned how to make every animal feel safe, comfortable, and loved, just like they would at home.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ Pet care is woven into every part of my day. My mornings start with feeding, walks, and making sure every animal in my care gets one on one attention before anything else. Throughout the day I check in on their needs, whether that is playtime, grooming, or just some quiet companionship. Evenings are for winding down together, because pets thrive on consistency and I make sure they always feel settled and secure. This is not something I squeeze into my schedule. It is my schedule. Animals are my priority seven days a week, and that kind of commitment is something every pet owner deserves to know their sitter has. Whether I am in your home or mine, my goal is always the same, to make your pet feel safe, loved, and right at home. I tailor my care to each animal’s personality and routine, because no two pets are alike. When caring for pets in my home, they become part of my daily life. They sleep comfortably, play freely, and receive constant attention throughout the day and night. I keep things calm and nurturing so even nervous or anxious pets can relax and settle in. When visiting clients in their own homes, I follow your pet’s established routine as closely as possible. Familiar surroundings make a big difference, especially for cats and older pets who do best in their own environment. I handle everything from feeding and walks to grooming and cuddle time, so your home stays in order and your pet stays happy. Either way, you can count on updates and peace of mind knowing your fur baby is in experienced, caring hands.

About: We are a dog loving household with a 8 year old super friendly jack russel of our own who loves playing with other dogs big or small. We both grew up around dogs big and small and love animals. We love going out back to playing catch and going on family walks to the park with the dog. When you board your dog with us rest assure they will be treated as part of the family. I am currently a SAHM so the dogs get lots of attention and playtime we have a fenced dog area in our backyard, allowing the dogs free range to run and play with eachother. we have also have a side of the house specifically blocked off just for the dogs in the case that they want to rest without being bothered. I am sahm during the week and my husband ia home on the weekend while I work so there is always someone here to give thw dogs attention. I have a fenced dog part and a friendly jack russel as well as 2 kida who love to play and tired the dogs out.

“Elisa took great care of my cat Lilo! Lilo was very happy and healthy when I returned home. I highly recommend her and will definitely be booking her again!”

About: Taking care of domestic and exotic animals growing up was an enjoyable, it gives this heartwarming feeling. I have over 15 years of experience of taking care different pets. I am willing to go out of my way for my pets, friends, family and new clients. I helped with dogs birth, puppies care, and senior care. I have a set schedule for my dog from the time I wake up to going to bed at night. Feeding, exercise and playtime will be tracked so you know your pet is getting what they need. I will obey all rules and schedule that is given to me for the best care for your pet. Your pet is in great hands, playtime and optional bathe will be included in house sitting so you can come home to a happy and clean pet if they end up having too much fun outside.

“Hannah was wonderful with our dog. She had great communication and she also was able to come last minute when our other sitter canceled. I will definitely be requesting her again!”

About: Hi, my name is Gaby and I am a big animal lover, but dogs are definitely the best. Throughout the years, I have had many different dog breeds and now currently have a Doberman and Japanese Akita. I love all dogs and believe there is no such thing as an aggressive breed, just a misunderstood pup. I currently have the ability to be readily available any time of the day. This allows me to cater to your loving pups needs and daily/weekly routine. I read the instructions left by you the owner very thoroughly to ensure the safety of your pup throughout our interaction. I want to ensure your pup feels extremely comfortable throughout the entire process.

About: I’m already someone who loves being home, going on peaceful walks, and keeping things cozy, so adding a furry friend to the mix just makes everything better. I treat pets like little VIP guests and I make sure they get plenty of attention, affection, and a routine that feels calm and predictable for them. I always try to match whatever your pet is used to so they feel safe and comfortable. If I’m watching your pet in your home, I keep their routine exactly how you have it. They will have their meals on time, daily walks, play breaks, and plenty of cuddles. I’m very detail-oriented, so I pay attention to the small things like their favorite toy, how they like to be greeted, or where they prefer to nap. If I’m caring for them in my home, they get a clean, cozy environment, lots of love, and a peaceful space to relax. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, or somewhere in between, I adjust to what makes them feel happiest. I genuinely treat every pet like they’re my own and give them spoiled-in-a-good-way kind of love. I’m patient, observant, and good with pets who may be a little shy or anxious. I have a patient personality and animals tend to trust me quickly. I’m also extremely reliable and communicative, so you’ll always know how your pet is doing. I’ve cared for a variety of pets from rambunctious puppies to senior dogs. I tailor my care to each pet’s personality and needs.
