About: I have worked with all types of animals, breeds and personality types. I’ve done dog walking/pet sitting for about 6 years and absolutely adore it! I am comfortable with any special needs or unique temperaments. (Most of my experience has been off this app, hence my lack of reviews… I am more than happy to provide references individually!) I’m currently available anytime during the day or night, weekdays and weekends. I can do overnights as well. As long as we plan ahead all should be good! I have a lot of time to stay with the pets in their own home so they will have lots of stimulation and attention! I love taking them anywhere they love, walking around the neighborhood, trips to dog beach, or supervising play dates with their furry friends!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I came into this world! Always watching over, loving, and caring for a variety of animals. At one point my family had 6 dogs to take care of and love! I have a very soft spot for elder animals and truly love caring for them! I love to watch and play with cats, and have experience cat sitting (usually 2 young male cats). I am currently a full time student, with a lot of free time throughout the week! I’d love to fill that time walking, playing, or spending time with your pet! I have a big fenced in backyard, front, and side yard that is perfect for playing! I have 2 roommates, both very loving and caring for animals similar to me! The space I live in is not noisy, and the overall space is very quiet. I love to play with animals and keep them active if that is desired by pet owners! I am very close to Bidwell Park which is perfect for long walks and getting energy out!

Prompt, loving, 100% trustworthy and took great care of our pup. We have whole house cameras and never even felt the need to check up on Alyssa because she communicated so well about our girl. We liked Alyssa so much we rehired her immediately after our initial sit for another trip. I'm so glad we picked this sweet human to help love our doggo!

Sabre is the best! She gave our 2 small dogs and 1 cat the best care while we were on vacation. She played with them, snuggled, and gave them love while we were gone. She even got our shy baby to warm up to her! She is very sweet, professional and willing to work with you to provide the best care your fur babies need ❤️

About: I will do everything to keep your dog safe, loved and comfortable!! I have taken care of dogs recently, I always make sure to give them the love and attention that they deserve if not more. I understand the feeling of leaving your dog at home while you are away and I want to continue to be the person people feel safe and secure to leave their dog at home or with me. I have a dog that loves too play as well so making friends is never a worry for him. I currently work part time, but after 1pm I am available. I do have some errands I do but doesn’t usually last for more than an hour. I am a student as well and attend online classes on Mondays but it won’t a disturbance. I am available on weekends for boarding or pet sitting at someone’s house as well. I live in a small apartment but have three room in which one isn’t being used. There is a big grassy area behind my apartment that I usually take my dog to and we do lots of long walks. There is plenty of of space for your fur baby and even though I have cats they like to be in one room so they wouldn’t be a bothers

About: We both had a family dog growing up. Trask is very active and loves going on dog walks/hikes. Emiko has cared for dogs throughout college. She also raised her Weimaraner mix dog since puppyhood until her passing at the age of (almost) 14. We still miss her greatly! We can usually arrange to be home full-time between the two of us, so your dog will have the attention your pet needs! We really love dogs. Trask is very good at being your dog's playmate! Emiko tends to say hi to every dog she passes-by. She is also pretty good at reading dog body language since she has dealt with a dog who had some behavioral issues. We try to educate ourselves reading dog training techniques/dog behavior books. If this is your first-time with us, we do require a meet-and-greet at no cost to you. Thank you for understanding. Thanks for looking, and we look forward to meeting you and your dog! We love evening walks but can accommodate more if needed. Just tell us know what the best schedule for your pet is. On the weekend, we are doing something outside whether it's gardening or going somewhere to hike. We would bring your furry along if you feel comfortable. We are also happy to stay around with your pet. If we are at your home, please give us all information we need to keep your pet happy and safe. For any booking, the more information you give us the better. It's important to tell us any reactivity that your pet may have.

About: I have gone through dog behavioral training courses with my own dogs, and have volunteered with the Humane Society to socialize kittens. I have two cats, who are happy and healthy. I work from home part time, so I have time throughout the day for drop-in care and dog walking, including mornings, afternoons, and evenings. I am available both weekdays and weekends, and can be flexible to work with your schedule. I treat my clients home with respect and care. I will follow your directions and be attentive to your needs and requests. Meet and greets are a good way to be on the same page about expectations of the service.

About: What sets me apart? I bring a mix of love, patience, and plenty of experience to every pet I care for! Whether it’s keeping up with energetic puppies, giving extra TLC to senior pets, or making sure everyone sticks to their routine (treats included, of course!), I’ve got it covered. Need meds given? No problem. Litter box deep-cleaned? Consider it done. Walkies or runs to get the energy out- even bettter (we can get fit together). My goal is to make sure your pet feels happy, safe, and totally spoiled while you're away—because they deserve nothing less! Pet care fits into my routine seamlessly since I work from home and have a somewhat flexible schedule! This allows me to adapt to your pet’s needs—whether they thrive on a set routine, need a midday walk, or just want some extra attention while you’re away. I can easily adjust my day to make sure they’re well cared for, comfortable, and happy. Plus, with me around, they’ll never feel lonely! 🐾💕 I provide a safe, comfortable, and pet-friendly environment for all my furry guests! I have a fully fenced-in backyard for playtime and fresh air, plenty of indoor space to relax, and even a large crate if needed. Your pet will also have some built-in company—I have three friendly cats and a dog of my own, so they’ll always have buddies around (unless they prefer their own space, which I totally respect!). Whether they love to run, lounge, or just get some extra snuggles, I make sure every pet feels right at home. 🐾💕

About: I grew up caring for pets throughout my childhood, including cats and dogs, and as an adult I have my own fur babies. I love all animals as much as I love people so your animal will definitely be LOVED! I am currently off work for the summer so I can easily fit in drop ins and walks throughout my day. I care for my own pets three times a day and their safety and wellbeing are my first priority. I always keep my dog on leash when out of the home and stay in safe pet friendly environments. Safety and social/emotional wellbeing of animals are my first priorities.

About: I grew up in a home that had dozens of animals, all well cared for and loved beyond belief. I have years of experience caring for all kinds of animals, and I have always loved to care for them. Pets provide us with so much love, comfort, and protection, and they deserve the same, from anyone they meet. As a caretaker, I promise to treat all animals compassionately, lovingly, and with kindness. I am confident in my ability to provide specialized care to animals with disabilities or medical needs. I have experience administering medications to pets, as well as bathing, grooming, cleaning ears and teeth, and more. I currently work 8 AM, to 2PM. So anytime after 2:30 my schedule is reserved for animal care! My only exception is Tuesday afternoons, 2:30- 3:45 pm. Tuesday evenings are wide open! As a caretaker who does drop-ins, I will provide a list of tasks that I will take care of each visit. This will include for dogs, taking on a short walk, providing a meal, ensuring water bowls are full, cleaning up waste in the yard, administer medications if necessary, and lots of love and play time! For cats, I can provide a walk if requested, meal time, refill any and all water bowls, clean cat box or accidents, and provide love and playtimes!

Reliability and an authentic love of animals is what most of home owners want. Deanna did an excellent job of caring for my cat and showed up exactly when she said she would. When she said my cat was doing well, I felt she was being honest and that she would have told me if things we're otherwise. Deanna is genuine and I look forward to having her work with us again.

Thanks to Andy, I was able to enjoy my trip home because I knew my kitties were in good hands. Andy understands the work that takes into caring for an animal and did not take any shortcuts. She spoke with me on the phone before hand, wanted to meet me and my kitties in person to make sure they would like her and updated me throughout the entire weekend. She is polite, professional and a true animal lover who you can trust with your furry best friend(s).

About: I know what it means to view your pets as your family. I share my home with 2 dogs, 2 cats, and backyard is even shared with 15 chickens! My furry and feathered friends are my world! And we’ve learned a lot together about building a healthy, happy, and cohesive home through trust and training. Other than being a pet parent for the past 15 years, I grew up as the neighborhood pet sitter as a kid/teen. I often did overnight stays for anxious pets, or provided timely medication for sweet seniors. As a pet parent, I truly understand the important of having a sitter you can trust to provide mutually agreed upon services. With me, you have reliable care for all your pet needs. I currently work full time as a hybrid remote worker. Some of my weekday time is spent in office, however I have lots of time spent working at home with flexibility throughout my day to hang out and be nearby to your furry friends. Please be sure to message me about your pet’s needs so we can build a schedule that works for them! I never leave a door open or a fence unlatched and pets are always leashed during walks. As a husky owner, I know what it’s like to have a curious escape artist with a knack for adventure. While training has brought us a long way from his early Houdini days, I maintain the habit of staying vigilant when it comes to pet safety.
