Pet Sitting Calimesa

About: I’ve loved and cared for animals for many years and understand that every pet has their own unique personality and routine. I provide a safe, calm, family-oriented environment where your pet will receive plenty of attention, affection, playtime, and potty breaks throughout the day. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, so I will keep you updated with photos and messages while you’re away. I follow feeding schedules, administer medications if needed, and do my best to keep your pet’s routine consistent so they feel comfortable and secure. My goal is for both you and your pet to have peace of mind. I treat every dog and cat as if they were my own and strive to make their stay feel like a second home. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member! I work from home, so pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. This allows me to provide frequent potty breaks, regular feeding schedules, playtime, and lots of attention throughout the day. I have a flexible schedule and will do my best to accommodate your pet’s routine so they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for while you’re away. I also provide regular photo and message updates so you can have peace of mind. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my highest priorities. For everyone’s safety, I only accept friendly, non-aggressive pets that are comfortable around children. I provide a clean, calm, family-oriented home where pets are treated like part of the family. I carefully follow each owner’s feeding, medication, exercise, and sleeping instructions to help keep your pet’s routine consistent. I supervise interactions, provide plenty of love and attention, and will send regular updates with photos during your pet’s stay. Before accepting a booking, I like to learn about each pet’s personality, routines, and any special needs to ensure they’re a good fit for my home.

“We’ve used Alexa twice now and she has quickly become our go-to dog sitter. She is warm, personable, and trustworthy. We always feel confident leaving our two mini dachshunds in her care because we know they’ll be well loved and taken care of. We highly recommend Alexa and will absolutely continue to use her in the future!”

About: I've dog sat for friends for several years and had a variety of pets growing up. I'm good at following directions for a specific pet's care. I work part time remote, so I'm flexible for house sitting or drop-by services. If you happen to have a bird, I can take care of them, too! I have a parakeet who lives in a large cage inside -- he doesn't know how good he has it, LOL! I also cared for a variety of pets growing up.

“Kathleen took care of Sadie while I was out adventuring and let me feel at ease. She sent photos to keep me up to date, let Sadie get her zoomies out and overall did a wonderful job. Will definitely be using Kathleen again!”

About: Howdy! I'm Sade (pronounced as shaw-day). I'm a down-to-earthy human who loves and respects nature and all animals (including bugs)! 🪲 Although I do have experience in caring for doggos, I have a special connection with feline friends! See Cat Care details for more deets! :)) Currently, I'm available throughout the week from 8am to 5pm. On weekends, I'm available 5pm to 930pm. This is subject to change in late October. Others have defined me as hyper-vigilant and empathetic. This can be a blessing and a curse but when it comes to caring for pets, it's definitely more of a blessing! I'm keenly aware of environmental surroundings and identifying unsafe details/ possible hazards (plastic bags, toxic houseplants, etc.), and ensuring that critters are safe in their homes. I also honor rules/ standards/ boundaries set by others, **though I will deny providing services if I feel what is being asked of me is unethical/unsafe**. Overall, I understand that each fur-baby is unique and requires custom care and attention.

About: My siblings and I have grown up having dogs of different breeds and sizes. My wife and I have raised our chihuahua for 6 years, german shepherd/husky for 9 years and our long hair chihuahua for 7. Our chihuahua passed away 2 years ago from confestional heart failure. I am very responsible when it comes to administrating medication in a timely manner because if it weren't for medicine, my chihuahua wouldn't have had an additional year of live. I have a very flexible schedule. I am open for boarding 7days out of the week. We can work out pick up and drop off times according to your needs. I have a fenced in backyard where your dogs have the ability to run free not exposed to danger. I also have two dogs who like to play and run together.

“Charlize was great! She goes beyond expectations and communicates effectively. All the animals loved her.”

“My very shy cat was out to meet her. Zaheera sent great pictures showing the cats being played with and being happy.”

“It was my families first time using a service like this and we LOVE IT! It exceeded our expectations. Nina was absolutely amazing with our fur baby. In the past my family and I would get home from a vacation and we could feel our fur babies anxiety from being in a board and care. We got home last night and when we walked in the door he walked out calmly stretching his legs and yawning…. Haha he actually looked at us like hmmm you guys are back already haha THANK YOU Nina! I hope we can continue using you in the future ??”

“Sarah watched my cat Stella while I was out of town and she was so lovely! Stella immediately loved her and so was so drawn to her! I would absolutely recommend Sarah!”

About: I have been a loving dog owner and pet sitter for the last 10+ years. Having had grown up in a house full of animals of different breeds, I can confidently say that I feel like a pet whisperer! I have experience with administering medications to animals, abiding by any regimes they follow, and walking/playing with dogs of all different sizes and breeds. As a proud owner of a Lhasa Apso, I can truly say that being around dogs has brought absolute joy to my life. The bond between a pet and a human can be incredibly rewarding, and I look forward to being an addition to your fur baby's little world! I have had pets my whole life, so I've been basically taking care of them on a daily basis for as long as I can remember. I make it a priority to walk my dog every 2 hours, feed him the healthiest dog food, and provide both assertive yet loving care. I would treat your dog as I do my own, with all the care in the world. I make sure to be attentive to each pets body language and needs, and look out for cues they might be trying to express, such as asking to go for a potty break or wanting a snack. I am vigilant with the pets I care for because, not only I want them to be safe, but I also enjoy their behaviors and spending time with them!

About: I have been caring for dogs for most of my life and have 3 years of experience pet sitting for friends, family and community members. I have experience with various dog breeds at all different life stages, all with widely varying needs. I truly love connecting with, being with and caring for animals and derive great satisfaction from developing loving relationships with furry friends. With me, you can rest assured that your loved ones are taken care of with attentiveness, kindness and reverence. I work part-time and am typically unavailable from 1-6pm Monday-Friday. Outside of that time I am happy to be with and care for your loved ones! I only pet-sit in other's homes due to having my own pets. I love people just as much as animals, and as such, do my best to respect other's space, property and boundaries. I abide by campground rules in life meaning I do my best to always leave a space just as I found it, if not better off. I believe communication is very important and I like to connect with clients to discuss all expectations and boundaries in regard to both their animals and their home.

“Very trustworthy with my home and the dogs!”

About: Psychology Major with an emphasis in Clinical Counseling. "I've never seen my dog do that before" is a typical comment I am proud to hear from my friends and clients. With a four-month dedicated dog sitting gig and years of caring for friends’ animals, I have become known as a dog whisper. I like the ring to K9 Mystic though haha. To each their own 🤪 I'm available everyday, but Sundays a little less so. Message me with your specific request and I will let you know as I am flexible. I prioritize patience and connection in my practice. I often just sit or lay down on the floor and be with my companions, attuning to their current state. I value stillness, mindfulness, and honesty and therfore make it my aim to have my calm and poised energy be the "tuning fork" for them to attune to.

“Susana was fantastic! Beforehand, she came over for a meet and greet and was great with our dog and cat. They were well cared for the day of the drop-in and she took great care of our senior dog and her medication needs. We are absolutely looking forward to being repeat clients.”

About: I'm a university student, my ultimate goal is vet school. In my family and among my friends, I have always been known as the animal lover. To me, this is more than just a side job; it's more like the payment is just a bonus, but the pets are what make me want to be there. I myself have a husky and a bulldog, and in the past, a pitbull. I understand all types of personalities and love each of them. Im a student at university of redlands. I have a short window for short requests 9:30am-1:00pm mondays and wednesdays but after 3pm im completely free. Tuesdays and Thursdays im typically at my busiest until 6pm and friday-sunday im the most free. If you have any questions or want to ask for exceptions just ask. Im in a dorm but I have no roommates and the campus in very pet friendly. I plan on walks around the campus and to park (with permission) and in my room they are welcome to rest, eat and play. My plan will vary depending on instructions from owners.

About: I worked for a pet boarding and daycare so I’m optimistic I can provide the best care for your furry family members! My skills start with tending to pet clients needs, group play for daycare and for boarding, as well as individual play for special dogs. Feedings in am and pm as well as lunches for specific clients. Picking up and cleaning spills, fecal, and other messes. Dishes and laundry and overall tending to the cleanliness of the facility. I have faith if I can handle 60+ pets I can handle anything! I provide pet care services solely through Rover. I currently have full availability, so I am able to dedicate plenty of time and attention to your pet's specific needs. I follow client instructions to ensure the comfort and care of their little fur family. I know it can be hard being apart from their owner so I always try to give them extra love to provide comfort and reassurance!

“Kiley was great. She is very affectionate with the kitties. Cleaned up the cat dishes and scooped the litter box. She also played with them. I would definitely ask her to pet sit again.”

About: When my sister and I were younger we went around our neighborhood and helped take care of any pets in need. Having two dogs of my own I be understand the love pets deserve. New to Rover but not at all new to caring for pets. I take on personal clients that have been with me for years! I have plenty of time to watch your pets! Whether it’s for one night or a week, I’m available! Depending on your specific requests I can just be a little present or be there at all times. I currently reside in a gated community that is fenced. I know majority of the neighboring residents so there will never be any issues with any pets.

“Evelyn took great care of our cats while we were away. She was great at communicating with us and provided updates for every visit. Highly recommend!”
