Jace is amazing. We love having him come watch our baby boy. He is so companionate and always gives us detailed check ups and takes great pictures

I’ve also grown up with animals all around me :) I am after school program tutor so I have my mornings and anything after 6pm available since it’s only a part time position. I would love to add some playful time with your animals added into my week :) I will take care of your pets following the instructions I am given I know each dog/cat is different and follows a different routine so i don’t expect to do every thing the same for every animal :) your pet is in good hands, if anything i wont hesitate to communicate any concerns with their owners!

About: I have a strong experience of pet care with 5+ of house-sitting as well as hosting pets. I provide the best pet care experience though my years of work with pets I'm currently off of school for the summer and my availability is open most days. I have a flexible schedule and can fit in pet care into my routine I can't host in my own home, however, I am more than willing to keep your house safe by checking in on pets and make sure the house is safe.

Roosevelt, Fresno, CA, 93702

About: I have experience of 5 years as a cat owner and have been volunteering at the Fresno Animal shelter with dogs of all sizes for 2 years now. I have been trained to understand and report dog behavior. I work to provide enrichment for dogs through walks and yard play, while building bonds. Additionally I have done foster care with them for cats of all ages. I have experience in kennel, hallway, and outdoor cleaning of pets. As well as providing pets with their prescribed medications. I am a full time student but currently on summer break from June to August! I am available weekdays and Saturdays for drop in visits from 6am-10pm. I can house sit weekends and weekdays if needed. I am available for dog days walking as early as 6am and as late as 8pm. Due to Fresno weather I will not walk dogs between 10am-5pm! I will follow instructions given and ask any questions before being left alone with your baby. I strongly believe in communication between us to report any issues or follow up questions in a timely manner. I value punctuality, whether it’s providing medications on time or arriving from a walk. I will clean up after them and ensure their used areas are clean!

About: Since I was young, I’ve always had dogs and cats. I grew up as the neighborhood pet sitter and have always adored being around animals. Now, I’m a dog groomer and I spend my free time volunteering for the SPCA and Happy Trails. I’d love to meet your wonderful pets and assist you in taking care of them. I am currently working part time as a dog groomer, so I have plenty of time to spend with your pets! My schedule is generally 12p-4p on Tues-Fri and 8a-4p on Saturday. Otherwise, I’m free to pamper your pets! I am very patient and compassionate so I’m very willing to work with pets of all personality types. I love big dogs, shy dogs, and all bully breeds. I’m also calm and considerate for nervous kitties.

Sara came early to the appointment to meet my animals and get to know them. She was kind, easy to work with and touch extra special loving care to my 20 year old grumpy cat! Snacks was happy to have the love, pets and attention and looked so much better after Sara cleaned up with pet wash wipes and brushed her out. She was gentle in handling her, and I will be using her again!!!

Farin is awesome. She’s prompt to respond and always really flexible with my schedule. Also huge plus is that my cat Mattis loves her and loves receiving pets and cuddles from her. I know he is in trusted hands with Farin looking after him.

Christina was a life saver this weekend! After my usual cat sitter had to cancel, she was available with like half a day’s notice. Chico looked so happy to have company while I was out, and I’ll definitely be booking next time we go camping or out of town (with a bit more notice next time)!

We always travel with our babies, but our eldest is going to be 12 this year, so it’s becoming more difficult to bring her along. I was very hesitant to use Rover, but I sent a request to Tiffany and she responded immediately and eased my concerns and answered all my questions. We have 2 dogs and 2 cats so I wanted to make sure it wasn’t overwhelming. She set up a meet and greet a day before which was very thoughtful and although my dogs are very verbal they seemed relax after a while which was a great sign. Tiffany was punctual and followed all the instructions we left for her, so when we got back home from our day trip our babies seemed content. We are very grateful for Tiffany and highly recommend her for anyone looking for her to take care of their fur babies like we did.

Tiffany is prompt, professional, and attentative. She cared for my newborn kitten and saved her life. I would absolutely rebook her in the future and I recommend that you consider hiring her for your family cats and dogs.

This was our first time with Jace taking care of my two sight hounds while I was out of town for the entire day. Kudos to Jace, who did a great job, despite of my unintentionally forgetting to let him know about some small details about my pups' routines and preferences, and the location of their cookie jar! I'm grateful to Jace, and would love to have him care for the hounds in the future, if he is available and willing.

He did well. The dogs were much more relaxed and happy when we got back in to town and he even brought a few packages in for us while we were gone for the weekend. 10/10 id hire him again in a heartbeat.
