About: Dog Walking • Pet Sitting I have a lifetime of experience caring for dogs, cats, and more. I bring a calm, steady presence and a deep respect for animals and their routines, understanding how important familiarity, consistency, and gentle handling are for pets to feel safe, settled, and well cared for. I’m attentive to details, reliable with schedules, and respectful of the trust it takes to leave your animals in someone else’s care. I take time to learn each pet’s personality, preferences, and needs so their routine stays as normal and stress-free as possible. I come with solid references, plenty of common sense, and a genuine love for your furry family members. I’d be honored to care for your pets while you’re away. Message me if you’d like to chat! I am working a flexable part time job and have plenty of time to care for your critters. Mornings, evenings and possibly even mid-day. I am flexable. Let’s talk about your needs. Needs will determine price. Over night necessity, medication, feed/water, attention, dog walking /playing, kitty cuddles and changing kitty litter. All my pleasure.

“Kali was great. She is very easy going. She followed all of our instructions. When we arrived home I could tell Paddy was completely relaxed with her. I give her 5 stars.”

“I highly recommend Ian! We have two Frenchies; a 2 year old and a pup who is just two months. It was clear after a night out to celebrate a special occasion that our fur kids had just as much fun and plenty of loving attention.”

About: Hi, I grew up around several different animals of all sizes from rodents/reptiles to livestock/dogs. I have always had at least one dog in my life at all times. The more the merrier. I love all animals big and small. I worked at a kennel where I learned about boarding and training dogs for about a year and I have pet sat for about 15 years in grand total. I currently work at a pet store in Sutter Creek. I love being around dogs and training or even just hanging out and playing. I am a outdoorsy person. I have experience with livestock animals also. Horses, cattle, chickens, Lhamas, mini animals, donkeys. I have references also if you would like them. I work Tuesday-Saturday 9-5. I do also go to church on sundays from 10:30-12:00. If we did boarding at our house our daughter is always home so the animal would be with someone constantly. I care for pets in my home as I would my own. I have 3 German Shepherds. 10 months to 7 years old. As for in home pet sitting I would follow whatever routine you have set for your fur babies already so it would be easier on them.

“We selected Ashley on short notice and she was awesome as both a dog and house sitter! Sent regular updates and pics of our dog. Was extremely flexible and stayed past our agreed upon end time due to an unexpected delay in our travel. Feel very comfortable with her as both a pet and house sitter. Will definitely use again.”

“Kayla is wonderful! She is a great communicator and asks appropriate questions. She did great caring for our two senior dogs. We are looking forward to our next trip so Kayla can come again!”

About: As someone who grew up with dogs, both small and large, I've learned what it takes to make sure the puppies are well cared for, between giving them the right food, making sure they go on walks, and grooming. Our pets are our best friends and so we should take the greatest care of them, and I'm willing to do that for all animals alike. I'm currently a part time worker both on weekends and weekdays and have lots of time to dedicate to taking care of pets. The only time I would not be able to offer my services is dueing weekends. In my home, I have a fenced yard to allow for our big huskies to have space to play and run, offering them toys that I know would keep them entertained. I also make sure to clean my dogs and ensure they eat healthily.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 10 years and truly love getting to know each one’s personality. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and look after their dogs of all breeds and sizes. I’m comfortable with puppies, senior dogs, and those who need a little extra patience or training. Whether it’s playtime, long walks, or quiet cuddles, I make sure every dog feels safe, loved, and happy while in my care. I’m currently working part time, I can care for your pet before work and after work. I will work less than 12 hours a week so I’m hoping to be available often. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always treat their space with the same respect as my own. I follow each pet’s routine closely to help them feel comfortable and secure. I make sure doors and gates are always locked, water bowls are fresh, and pets get plenty of attention, exercise, and love. I send regular photo updates so you can feel confident your furry family member is happy and safe while you’re away.

“Malina was a life saver for a last minute booking! She stayed with our fur babies at our home and did great! Would recommend to anyone looking for a sitter”

“Amanda took excellent care of our 9 week old Bernadoodle puppy and left our home sparkling clean. Even our plants were well cared forr. Thurs was not an easy job, as we had juts brought our puppy home before the holiday and she’s not yet fully potty trained. Amanda was amazing with her and kept us updated on how she was doing. She is a lovely person to work with and a delight to have around. We will absolutely request her services again.”

“We had a wonderful experience with Brittany as our dog sitter! Throughout our time away, Brittany kept us well informed with regular updates, which gave us peace of mind. We were very pleased with her care and professionalism, and we would happily trust her again in the future. Highly recommended!”

“He was able to watch our dogs on a last minute request! Our dogs were in great hands and kept in contact about how our dogs were doing. Highly recommend!”

About: I've been housesitting since 2010, mainly cats and dogs. Multi-pet houses don't bother me and I'm good at keeping with your fur kids' schedules. I have and RVT license that is current and have been an RVT for over 10 years. I took a break from housesitting to work at animal hospitals, including a 24-hour critical care hospital in the ICU. Medications and medical treatments are no problem for me. I have an open schedule and am comfortable with either staying at your home for your pet's comfort, or I can visit everyday to make sure they are cared for. I adjust to their wants and needs and stick to their schedule. I'm low stress and understand that sometimes pets just need to warm up to you. As for my personal pets, there's four cats with totally different personalities that run the house (I just live there).

“We have used Julia many times now for dog sitting/house sitting, and always have peace of mind when we travel. She's great with our two big energetic dogs. She goes above and beyond our expectations- house is always so neat, dogs are entertained/well taken care of, and she is always fast with communicating.”

I am flexable and here to make your life easier and less stressful as you go off to work, on relaxing vactions, and especially for those last minute family emergencies. Above all, i am here for your four legged friends' happiness and well being... as life happens to you ❤ Thank you for your time. I hope to meet you soon. -Chelsea

“The dogs and cats loved Meredith! She sent plenty of pictures and a summary of her stay every day. She left the house in great shape, clean and tidy. Will definitely reach out to her again!”

About: Since 13, I helped with taking care of 2 Great Danes from puppy to senior. From walks, feeding, and training plus tons of vet visits and zoomies I typically work weekends from 10:30-5pm so i’m free before and after that. During the week, I am student at college and I can come over after! We can figure it out together :) I am a firm believer in never hitting (obviously) dogs or cats and I use positive reinforcement with my cat instead and would implement that into daily routine
