“Thank you so much!!!!”

About: I have 12 years of experience in animal care and a life time of loving animals. I am a licensed registered veterinary technician. I have personal experience with senior care. Pet care fits into my daily routine. It does not even feel like work. I truly enjoy caring for other people’s fur-babies. I am capable of medicating and taking pets on walks. I care for pets in their home where they are most comfortable. Depending on what the owner would like me to do. I can take their pet on walks, keep them company and feed them and give them potty breaks.

About: I have always had the responsibility of caring for my own animals, but I love getting to help other people care for their pets. I love meeting new animals and have lots of experience in this area. I have been walking dogs around my neighborhood since I was about 10 years old. I loved this experience which is why I have decided to dedicate myself to this line of work so I can always be available to help an animal in need. Currently I work an evening shift at a restaurant 4 nights a week so I have the day open before 5 pm Friday through Monday and Tuesday Wednesday Thursday I am completely available. My schedule also will be opening up more soon. I have a very large area for dogs to run around and two very friendly dogs of my own. I always start by making sure the space is free of any hazards, like toxic plants or loose wires and that they have a cozy spot just for them. Building trust is key, so I take things slow, using positive reinforcement like treats and praise to create a bond. Whether it's playtime or just chilling, I'm all about keeping their routine consistent to minimize stress.

About: First hand experience with care of puppies, seniors and those at their end of life. Personal experience giving medicine exactly as prescribed. I will love your pets like they are mine and make them feel loved in your absence. I work from home so I have plenty of time to spend with your pets when you must be away. I make my own schedule so I am flexible to arrive at your convenience. I have a large 5 acre property where I can provide long walks to your loved ones upon request. Time with me will be spent in a safe environment among nature. I will make sure that any messes made by your pet are taken care of in your absence.

About: As a child, I assisted my stepdad with basic obedience and potty training for dogs as young as 6 months old for his dog training business. I have personally owned a red & blue nose pit bull rescue mates( plus a litter of 6 puppies). I currently own a 5 year old Lowchen rescue , two 6 month old Husky rescues, 2 aquatic turtles, and 9 fish. Despite my experience, I am ready to learn how to love and care for your family pet as you would. I'm am available 7- days a week to care for your pet. I understand things can change at last minute so I am available for same day service / cancellation. Providing services in your homes means I am to give the love and care I would provide to any animal at anytime. I will keep your pet safe as instructed, check in as needed to assure your peace of mind.

About: I grew up with pets in the home. I have always had dogs and cats and I love animals in general. I have 5 solid years of pet-sitting experience, and I love it. I am very patient with all pets. I have a boxer so I know how hyper dogs can get lol, I don’t mind it at all. I will provide great care and love for your pets! I currently have a part-time job that doesn’t take up much of my time at all. My schedule is extremely flexible, especially in the next few months. I have 5 inside dogs and 1 outside dog, as well as 4 inside cats. They all love each other, I give my pets a lot of freedom while also keeping them disciplined when needed. I have a very loving relationship with all of my pets, and for yours I will accommodate to their needs and I am very patient with more out-going/hyper pets.

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my deep love for animals of all kinds—young, old, healthy, or those needing extra care. With over 13 years of hands-on experience, I’ve worked with pets who have medical needs, including administering daily medications, caring for dogs with seizures, and supporting senior pets with mobility or incontinence issues. I’m especially tuned in to the unique needs of cats—I've lived with and cared for them for over a decade, and currently have five of my own. I can bathe them, trim their nails, and most importantly, earn their trust (because as any cat lover knows, they choose us—not the other way around!). I also love spending time outdoors with dogs—whether it’s a long walk or just time to sniff around and explore. I currently have one dog of my own, so I understand how important it is to find someone who treats your pets like family. That’s exactly what I do. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I currently have a very flexible schedule. This allows me to take dogs out for walks in the morning, during the day, or in the evening—whatever works best for your pet’s needs. I’m also available for house visits, feeding, playtime, administering medication, and anything else your furry friend may need. Caring for animals isn’t just something I make time for—it’s something I genuinely enjoy and build my day around. Whether I'm caring for pets in my home or at a client’s, I prioritize creating a safe, loving, and stress-free environment. I follow your pet’s routine as closely as possible—from feeding and potty breaks to walks, playtime, and cuddle sessions. I pay close attention to their body language and behavior to make sure they’re comfortable and happy. If I’m in your home, I respect your space and aim to keep things just as you left them. I’ll send regular updates so you know how your pet is doing and can feel totally at ease while you're away. If pets are staying with me, they’ll be treated like part of the family. I have experience managing multiple pets and keeping everyone safe and happy, whether it’s quiet time for an older pet or more active play for a younger one.

About: I’ve cared for pets of all ages and personalities, from energetic puppies to calm senior pets, ensuring each one feels safe, loved, and well cared for. What sets me apart is my patience, attentiveness, and genuine love for animals. I understand that every pet has its unique routine, quirks, and comfort needs, and I tailor my care to meet each individual's specific needs. I’m also comfortable administering medication, adhering to particular feeding schedules, and ensuring your pet receives plenty of exercise and affection while you’re away. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or just quiet companionship, I’m here to give your pet the care they deserve. As a college student with a part-time job, I’ve learned to manage my time well, and pet care is something I genuinely enjoy making time for. I’m mostly available in the evenings, especially between 5:00 and 8:00 PM, but depending on the day, I may also be available in the mornings or afternoons. I’m flexible when possible, and I always do my best to accommodate your pet’s needs. For more specific availability, feel free to contact me directly. I'd be happy to work out something that fits both our schedules. Whether I’m caring for pets in my own home or a client’s, safety and trust are always my top priorities. I ensure pets are in a calm, secure environment where they feel comfortable and well cared for. In your home, I respect your space and follow all instructions closely, whether that’s sticking to feeding schedules, administering medication, or maintaining routines your pet knows and loves.

About: I’ve had dogs since I was super little, but have dog sat since I was 12. I love taking dogs for walks or just watching them! I’m super energetic and am always down for a walk. I’m currently in college, but only have one class on Wednesdays from 5-8 pm. The other days I am completely free and my schedule is open! I am very trustworthy and reliable. I can feed the dogs on a set schedule, walk and watch any type of dog big or small!

About: I've grown up with German Shepherds, and can lift up to 80 pounds. I often house sat for friends and family. One in which had me take care of four dogs and four cats. My jobs included feeding, walking, and playing with the dogs. As they were diffrent beeds/sizes and some were seniors, they had a very strict potty and pill/medicine times, as well as different portions sizes. I do best with written instructions and am task oriented. In my care your pet will be loved and taken care of. As of right now I am free any day of the week. I am more then willing to do holidays as well as weekends. I am pretty flexible time wise, but do wish for dates to be final set. I am very mindful of pets security and basic behaviors. I will keep parents updated and alert if desired or in emergency situations. I will make sure your pet is taken care of and loved. I thank you for your consideration.

About: I have been caring for animals all my life, on both sides of my family. I primarily grew up with dogs (of all shapes, sizes, and breeds), but I have grown to love cats just as much. I have experience caring for several animals simultaneously, including both cats and dogs. I have cared for animals from newborns to seniors and have experience caring for animals with medical needs (oral medication, injections, etc.). I love animals of all kinds and would love to take care of yours! I am a full-time student at Merced College, and I'm working on my ASTs in Mathematics and Computer Science & Engineering! I do have a couple of in-person classes on Tuesdays and Thursdays (online wasn't available), so please message me if you are interested in booking but unsure if the dates/ times will work. Other than that, I am generally free the rest of the week. I was recently accepted to UC Merced, and I'm scheduled to transfer this fall (2025). To fully focus on my studies, I will no longer be offering dog-sitting services after mid-August of this year. I really appreciate your understanding, thank you! I can travel as needed to care for your pet in your home. I am more than happy to adapt to whatever needs/ wants you may have regarding the care of your pet!

“My dog Tonka loved Kinny for the walk and she was attentive to me being a bonehead and leaving the oven on! Crisis averted and will definitely keep Kinny in mind for next time.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 13, my friends and family still rely on me to watch there animals when needed. I have a 3 year old French bulldog her name is daisy she is great with people and other dogs. I would love for you to give me a chance to show you I would be great for caring for your dogs.! I am currently working for rover full time, so I will be able to be with the animals at all times :) I hope you decide to give me a chance! I have a fenced in yard and a little French bulldog who is friendly. I take her on a small walk about ever 2 hours which I will do for your fur baby as well.

About: I’ve taken care of every kind of animal you could imagine since the age of 7. Animals are my passion. I love them regardless and care for safety above all else. I’m currently working part-time up by Yosemite. I update my work schedule to fit my needs for pet sitting so scheduling isn’t an issue as long as we can confirm the hours requested :)Monday and Tuesday I’m completely free for whatever. I love going to the lake and going on hikes with my dog and playing outside with my chickens and animals. The rest of the week I work night but am free after 10PM. But again, I can change my schedule as I wish so it won’t be a problem:) I have about 4 acres to let your fur babies roam and play about. It is safe and quiet neighborhood away from the street, although it is not fenced in. There’s no loose dogs in our neighborhood and there’s little to none traffic. I will not let pets loose unless they have recall, otherwise i will walk them without a problem on our trails and roads or leave them outside to play on a 25 foot cable. I also offer the option of a 12x12 galvanized steel dog kennel for dogs who prefer to be outside. Dogs and cats are welcome inside and can play with my rat terrier Bailey, ny inside cat Biggie Small, and my two outside black cats Kitty and Meow. As for overnight sitting, they are most welcome inside on the beds, or have access to their own room, I have a medium/large crate as well to use. The 12x12 kennel is an option as well for mostly outside dogs.

About: I love animals so much that I decided to devote my whole life to caring for them. I am certified in pet CPR & first aid, pet acupressure, pet nutrition and pet sitting. I am self employed and work from home, allowing me to have a very flexible daytime schedule. My evenings are devoted to my family though. I am available to walk your dog/cat, feed them, play with them, snuggle with them. Clean the litter box, check water dishes, give simple medications. Whatever you need, I’m willing to give it a shot. :)

About: I love interacting with animals and am always looking forward to spending time with pets. I am a bird parent and frequent dog walker so I know the importance of properly caring for an animal. I am available most weekends and weekdays in the evening for date nights, movie events or other endeavors. I can watch over the weekend or on weeknights as well. I have a lot of experience with animals from watching my coworkers’ dogs or babysitting my neighbors’ pets. I charge little for my services so you can save money and be safe in knowing that your pets are safe and will be entertained. I believe that pets and humans are equal and deserve the same amount of respect regardless of how many hands or paws you have, and I will care for any dog as it is my own. Thank you. I always schedule time for what is most important and make sure animals are properly stimulated and entertained when I am caring for them. It may not always be easy to tell whether or not your pet is happy so listening and observation is key. As a dog walker, the dog may not be in my home but I will make sure the dog is safe and protected at all times. I would treat the dog as I would myself or another human.
