About: Growing up with animals my whole life I’ve always had a fond love of my pets. I’ve watched numerous family and friends animals while they were away and loved spending time with every one of their pets. I furthered my education by obtaining a bachelors degree in animals science and working in vet medicine, it’s to safe to say it’s my passion! Can’t wait to meet your beloved pets! I currently work at an equine veterinary hospital only 4 days a week. My schedule is flexible enough to maintain your pets normal routines and schedules! Other than work my priority would be your pets! I have a strong love and passion for taking care of animals and take pride in giving the best care to your pets while you’re away! Having 2 dogs and 2 cats of my own, I understand just how important our pets are and how we love them like family. I am passionate about providing the best care for your pets as I would care for my own. I strive to ensure your pets are provided for in the best way possible that fits all your needs and provides comfort and peace of mind to you and your family.

Leslie was just what I was looking for to help me with my anxious dog as I went away for the weekend. She is very easy to communicate with and responsive. She was great about arrival and departure times and kept my dog and my house safe. My dog was definitely less stressed when I got home compared to drop in visits which we have done in the past. I will use her again for sure.

Beth is wonderful. She accepted a last minute booking and made time for a meet and greet. When she arrived a couple of days later to house sit, my dog still had a tough time warming up to the idea of a stranger in the house, but Beth was a patient professional, and they were best friends before long. I’m so grateful!

About: I’ve cared for animals for most of my life and have always been someone friends and family trust with their pets. I’m calm, patient, and attentive, and I take the time to understand each animal’s personality and needs. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, and maintaining routines so pets feel safe and secure while you’re away. Whether a pet is energetic, anxious, or more independent, I adjust my approach to what works best for them. I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, and I aim to provide dependable, gentle care every time. I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets consistent attention and care throughout the day. I’m available for drop-ins, walks, and house sitting, and I pride myself on being as reliable and communicative as possible. I’m happy to work with your pet’s routine and can adjust timing as needed to help them feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I focus on creating a calm, safe, and respectful environment for every pet. I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding routines, medications if needed, and any specific preferences your pet has. I’m attentive to behavior and body language, especially with shy or anxious animals, and I always prioritize their comfort and safety. I also respect your home and space, keeping things clean and secure while you’re away. I’m happy to provide updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands!

We really liked Katie and our dog, Skyy, seemed to like her too. During our first meeting, she was friendly, engaged and asked the right questions. Before and while house/dog sitting for us, she was communicative which gives owners confidence. And during her stay, she sent us pictures of Skyy. She is a bright young lady and we felt the house and dog were in good hands!

About: I used to dog sit/cat sit and house sit for my sister constantly when I lived in North Dakota. I also had two wiener dogs growing up and have always been around animals. I had two pet rats for 3 years also and now have had a dog of my own for 3 and a half years. Hi, my name is Lex, and I work as a PE paraprofessional for Ceres Unified School District. During the school year, I work with students and enjoy being active, patient, and dependable. Since I have summers off, I have a very flexible schedule and can dedicate plenty of time and attention to caring for your pets. Animals have always been an important part of my life, and I understand how important it is for pet owners to know their pets are safe, loved, and well cared for while they’re away. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, administering routines, or simply providing companionship, I will make sure your pets receive the attention and care they deserve. I understand that every pet has unique needs, routines, and comfort levels, and I always strive to maintain those routines as closely as possible. Safety is my top priority, and I take the time to learn each pet’s preferences, feeding schedule, exercise requirements, and any special instructions provided by their owner. I have experience caring for both dogs and cats with different personalities and energy levels, and I believe in using patience, consistency, and positive reinforcement to help pets feel comfortable and secure. I also provide regular updates, photos, and communication so owners can feel confident knowing their pets are happy, safe, and receiving plenty of love and attention while in my care.

Aaron is simply THE BEST! He formed a bond with my Gracie right away. He took more than great care of her and my home during the time I was away. He is extremely respectful and caring of my worries of being away and sent multiple update and pic messages daily. Gracie can’t wait for him to hangout with her again! I have already booked him for all my upcoming trips, and I couldn’t be more grateful for him.

Leah was great with my girls, they tend to be a bit anxious whenever I go away and she gave them exactly what they needed. She worked with my travel schedule to make sure they weren’t home for long stretches by themselves. Would definitely use again!

About: I've always loved taking care of animals. When I was little I had big plans of having a shelter for dogs, cats and horses. I had even planned out the cost. Two neighborhood cats took shelter in our home and garage had three litters with us, that had further sparked my young passion for pet care. Later in life I had taken care of neighbors and families pets. I also worked with and assisted a woman with a dog grooming service (and the occasional cat) which taught me a lot more about animal temperament and handling. I adore animals and would be honored to give your fuzzy friends my best care! I work part time at TJ Max I get my work schedule a week ahead and normally im scheduled for 1 to 2 days for 4 hour shifts. If I were to pet sit for you I would only need be away for 5 hours at a time if I'm shecduled (considering drive time). I am starting school this fall working toward becoming a nurse, so being able to work with animals in the meantime is a blessing. Through the week I care for my cat and my aunts dog. my kitty gets soup time nightly (wet food) and my aunts dog takes two walks a day. In my experience every animal has their own routine they need to feel comfortable, and I am happy to learn and apply it to give the best care possible!

Cyndi was an amazing sitter for our Sprinkles. We came home to her being as happy and cared for as if we were at home with her the whole time. She kept us up to date with pictures and check-ins and we felt comfortable with our time away. I highly recommend her for bookings and look forward to booking with her in the future.

About: I’ve taken care of my own dog along with my family for the past 12 years by walking and feeding him. I usually walk my dog two to three miles everyday so I am able to give your dog long walks if needed. I am currently home from college and I will be available Mondays-Thursdays from May 19th-July 19th. I am able to care for your dog by walking and feeding them during those dates. I have a 12 year old miniature poodle and have taken him on walks almost every day. I have a small fenced in backyard and two parks within a mile of my house. I walk my own dog to both of those parks almost every day.

About: Pet Care is important! I can help with your pets needs as your away from home whether on vacation or at work for long hours,I can stop by to help! I add more water & food, play/entertain, take cat outside for an outdoor break, or take your dog on W-A-L-Ks. I offer drop ins / dog walks during the week and overnight stay from Fri-Mon. I provided pet care services for over 10 years and met incredible pets ranging from: your traditional pets(dogs,cats,fish), exotic pets( Asian water monitor Lizard, birds), farm animals (bunnies, chickens, etc.) As a dedicated pet sitter, my daily and weekly routine revolves around ensuring the well-being and happiness of the pets under my care. Here's an overview of how pet care fits into my schedule: Daily Routine: Morning Check-ins: I start the day by visiting each pet on time.This includes feeding, providing fresh water, and spending quality time with them for play and companionship. Midday Breaks: For clients who prefer midday check-ins, I make sure to visit again to offer bathroom breaks, playtime, and any necessary medications. Afternoon Activities: In the afternoon, I engage pets in activities suitable for their energy levels, whether it's a walk, interactive play, or simply some cuddle time. Evening Check-ins: The evening routine involves another round of feeding, ensuring their comfort, and spending time with them before bedtime. 1.Dedicated Pet Space: Pets have access to a dedicated and comfortable space in my home, ensuring they have their own area to relax, sleep, and play. This space is designed to make them feel secure and at home. Dogs in my care will also have the opportunity to go outside every hour for approximately 30 minutes, where they can enjoy the fresh air and outdoor environment. During this time, they will be closely monitored to ensure their safety and well-being. 2.Regular Exercise: Pets staying with me enjoy regular exercise routines, including walks, playtime, and access to a secure outdoor area. 3.Social Interaction: Pets are not only included in my daily activities but also have social time with the residents of the home, including my own friendly dogs. My four dogs, spanning different ages, are consistently supervised during play sessions to ensure a safe and enjoyable environment. 4.Feeding Schedule: I maintain a consistent feeding schedule based on the pet's dietary needs and preferences, following any specific instructions provided by the owner. 5.Grooming and Hygiene: Basic grooming activities such as brushing are included in the care routine. Please note that nail trimming is not offered. However, I do provide a deep clean wash and dry for an additional $15 charge, ensuring your pet receives a thorough grooming experience. 6.Health Monitoring: I pay close attention to the pet's health and behavior, promptly addressing any concerns and providing necessary medications or veterinary care.

Luna did an amazing job staying and sitting for our senior dog who needs medications twice a day and can be a bit nervous/high strung. Within minutes of being in our home, our dog was snuggled next to her and licking her hand. We are so grateful to have found Luna and have already reached out to rebook!
