Cat Sitting in Chorro

“Joshuah was incredible with our two cats! He kept us updated with photos every day for two weeks. Joshuah is reliable, communicative, and professional. We’ll definitely reach out to him whenever we need a pet sitter again!”

Alejandra V.

“Bella was very communicative and did a great job taking care of my kitties for a few days!”

About: Hi! My name is Sophia and I am a student at Cal Poly. Throughout my time here, I have wanted a pet of my own but my lease is not pet-friendly. Throughout my life I have been surrounded by other people’s dogs and cats- family, neighbors, and friends- and I jump at every opportunity to watch and spend time with them! I prioritize safety, communication, and trust and I would love to help you take care of your animal and give them the love they deserve! I am currently a full-time student, but I am free all day during Fridays and weekends, am available T/Th after 3:30 pm, and M/W after 6pm. I’m very detail-oriented and thrive when I have clear instructions to follow. I appreciate having all the information upfront about how tasks should be done, and I’ll make sure to carefully follow any directions you provide.

“Our first time with Mindy but definitely not our last! No one’s ever been so respectful of our home and she took amazing care of our kitty, with daily updates/pics and a genuine fondness for Murray the cat. It can be stressful to travel and leave your fur babies behind but when you have a kind and responsible sitter like Mindy it makes all the difference in the world! Already looking forward to the next time…”

About: I have hands-on pet care experience for two dogs, a Rottweiler and a pit bull mix, at home and volunteering 3 years caring for adoptable dogs for Animal Rescue Recon including daily feeding, walking, and clean up with varying temperaments, energy levels, and needs. As a full-time student at Cal Poly, my schedule allows me to be available Friday through Sunday to dedicate my time to feeding, walking, playtime, and providing reliable care for dogs. When caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I focus on maintaining the dog’s normal routine to help them feel comfortable and secure. I provide timely feeding, regular walks, playtime, and plenty of attention and affection. I closely monitor each pets’ behavior, follow any specific instructions, cleanliness, and clear communication with pet owners.

About: Hi! I'm a Cal Poly student who has been taking care of animals for as long as I can remember! I have experience caring for all sizes, ages, and personalities of dogs and cats! I absolutely love spending time with all pets and always match their energy and keep them happy. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet and I take the responsibility of caring for pets seriously. I am a very detail oriented person so I am happy to follow any specific instructions you have. I will always keep you updated so you know your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for! I am a full-time student at Cal Poly, but I currently have a very flexible schedule! I love taking long walks and keeping active! I will always follow your home and care instructions, keep dogs on leash while on walks, and of course, give your pet my full attention.

About: Hi there! I’m so excited to meet your furry friends! I'm a dedicated and reliable dog walker with experience caring for the pets of family and friends. I genuinely care about the well-being of your furry friend and am committed to providing attentive, personalized care. Whether it's a leisurely stroll or an energetic walk, I ensure your dog gets the exercise, attention, and companionship they need to stay happy and healthy. I'm a working college student that loves to make time to care for your pets. With experience looking after the pets of family and friends, I provide reliable and attentive care. I'm available most days of the week to ensure your pet gets the exercise and attention they need. Just reach out and I can confirm with you! I provide a safe, comfortable environment for pets, whether in my home or yours, following routines and offering playtime, walks, and attention to ensure their safety, health, and happiness.

About: I’ve cared for animals of all sizes since I was young and have always had a natural connection with pets. Friends and family regularly trust me to feed, walk, play with, and care for their animals. I’m attentive, patient, and committed to making every pet feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. Because my sister is allergic, I haven’t been able to have pets of my own, which makes caring for others’ pets even more special to me! As a college student, I maintain a structured schedule and plan ahead to ensure I can give each pet my full attention. I’m especially flexible on weekends and work closely with pet parents to accommodate their needs whenever possible. I prioritize safety, routine, and clear communication. When caring for pets in your home, I follow all instructions closely, ensure doors and gates are secure, and stay attentive on walks. I treat every home with respect and send regular updates so you can feel completely at ease while you’re away.

About: Hi, I'm Kathryn! I'm a pre-veterinary Animal Science student at Cal Poly San Luis Obispo, working toward my dream of becoming a veterinarian. When I care for your pet, I bring a level of knowledge and attentiveness that goes beyond a typical sitter. I've been pet sitting in the Sacramento area since 2020, caring for over 10 families and their dogs, cats, chickens, fish, and horses. I'm experienced with walking, feeding, administering medication, and keeping consistent routines, and I always keep owners up to date, so you have full peace of mind while away. My background also includes working at a horse camp, where I helped care for horses daily and assisted with training and handling, so I'm calm and confident around animals of all kinds. I genuinely love all animals and I'm studying them seriously. I notice things other sitters might miss, and I treat every pet like my own. Feel free to reach out! I'd love to meet your furry family member! As a full-time student, I keep a flexible schedule that allows me to be available before class, midday, and after school all the way through overnight. I'm committed to making sure your pet's routine stays consistent and stress-free, no matter what my day looks like. Caring for animals fits naturally into my daily life, and I genuinely look forward to every visit. The best part of being a pre-vet student is that every class I take teaches me something new that I bring right back to the animals I care for. Whether it's understanding behavior, nutrition, or health, I'm always learning and always applying it. Your pet is in the hands of a person who is not only caring but also constantly learning more! When I'm in your home, I treat it with the same care and respect I'd want for my own. I always make sure doors are locked, mail is brought in, and lights are on when needed, so your home looks lived in and secure while you're away. But above all, the safety and well-being of your pet is my number one priority in every visit. I know how much your home and your animal mean to you, and I take that responsibility seriously. You can leave knowing that both are in trustworthy, attentive hands!

About: I have grown up my whole life with dogs and cats. My family has always had a love for animals and they have played such a huge role in my life. I started house and pet sitting at a young age for neighbors and friends. I have also trained a service dog for a child with autism so I am very comfortable helping and training dogs as needed. I am currently working part time so I have plenty of time for walks and visits. I am very outdoorsy and love hiking and being active. I have always had a love for animals and would love to take care of yours. I have a fenced in yard with two dogs. A 3 year old yellow lab and an 11 year old golden retriever. I am also located in downtown so I can easily get to houses in the area.

About: As a Registered Nurse with 10+ years caring for dogs, I bring professionalism and care for your loved ones. I handle emergencies calmly and administer medications properly. I volunteer at a local animal shelter where I work with all kinds of dogs -anxious pups, senior dogs, and dogs of all ages - so I’m comfortable with all temperaments. I’ve cared for my own two dogs, my parents’ dogs, and friends’ dogs for years. Your pup gets professional-level care with lots of love, exercise, and photo updates throughout our time together. I work part-time with a flexible schedule, which means I have excellent availability for your pet care needs. I can often accommodate last-minute requests and am available for walks and drop-ins. Whether you need early morning walks or check-ins, I can usually make it work! What you can expect: * I follow your pet's exact routine and care instructions to the letter—no guessing * Regular photo and video updates so you have peace of mind * Immediate communication if anything seems off with your pet * Your vet info and emergency contacts readily available at all times In your home (if house sitting/drop-ins): * I keep your home secure * I treat your space with complete respect * Your pet stays in their comfortable, familiar environment

About: I’ve been caring for animals since I was young, I can't remember a time that I haven't had a dog or cat around my home. Many friends and family have entrusted me with their pets to care for, walk, feed, and everything in between over the years and I hope I can gain your trust as well. In addition to cats and dogs, I was a livestock showman all 4 years of high school and have experience ranging from goats to cattle and everything in between. I have experience with both senior dogs and puppies; however, if you have a specific need I am flexible and open to learning. I am currently a full-time student majoring in animal science and work part-time as a nanny. I am available most evenings to walk your pup and over the weekends as well. I have a very busy schedule but would love to fit you in! I live in a house with 5 roommates so boarding or petsitting isn't something I am able to take on right at this moment in time.

About: I’m a student at Cal Poly SLO originally from San Diego, and I’d love to spend time with dogs while I’m away from home. I’ve grown up around dogs my whole life, from German Shepherds to smaller breeds. I raised my Mini Schnauzer from when he was just 7 weeks old (I was about 14 at the time), so I learned quickly how to train, care for, and understand dogs from a young age. I also groom him myself at home, so I’m very comfortable with hands-on care and attention to detail. Back home, I have three dogs—an Australian Cattle Dog, my Mini Schnauzer, and a Dachshund. My Australian Cattle Dog is deaf and blind (we adopted her from a shelter), so I’m also experienced with caring for dogs who need extra patience and attention. I’m usually the one feeding, bathing, and keeping up with their daily care. I’m very patient with animals and feel like I understand them well. Dogs have always been a big part of my life—they’re family to me—and I’d treat your dog the same way. I’m pretty flexible with my schedule and always willing to move things around when needed. * Monday, Wednesday, Friday: Available in the afternoons and evenings/nights * Tuesday & Thursday: Available in the mornings and later in the day * Weekends: Fully available I’m happy to work with your schedule to make things as easy and convenient as possible! I always want pets to feel safe, comfortable, and loved, especially when their owners are away. I do my best to stick to their usual routine so they feel as relaxed and at home as possible. I’m very patient and gentle with animals, and I pay attention to their behavior and little cues so I can understand what they need. Having a dog at home who is deaf and blind has taught me how important it is to be extra caring and attentive. I’ll treat your home with respect and your pet like they’re my own, making sure they feel happy, safe, and well cared for the entire time 💛

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments since I was 13 years old. Back home in Walnut Creek, I became very well known for providing dependable, high-quality care, and I built strong relationships not just with the animals, but with their families too. I truly get attached to the pets I care for and treat them like they’re my own. I have experience with everything from managing litters of energetic puppies to caring for senior dogs in the final stages of life. I understand how different those needs can be — from structured training and high energy play to patience, gentleness, and comfort-focused care. I also have my own German Shepherd back home, so I’m very comfortable handling strong, intelligent, and high-energy dogs. I know what it’s like to stay consistent with training, routines, and exercise. In addition, families have trusted me to transport pets to vet appointments and rely on my judgment when something didn’t seem right. I take that responsibility seriously and always prioritize a pet’s safety and well-being. I’m attentive to behavior changes, appetite shifts, or anything out of the ordinary. What sets me apart is that I don’t just “watch” pets — I genuinely care about them and aim to make them feel safe, understood, and loved while their owners are away. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, and I currently have a flexible schedule. My weekends are fully open, and I’m also available most mornings on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. Tuesdays and Thursdays are more limited, but I can often accommodate requests with advance notice. I’m happy to provide walks, drop-ins, or extended care depending on your needs. Please note: I’m not currently able to board pets in my home, but I’m very comfortable caring for them in their own environment where they feel most secure. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. Since I care for pets in their own homes, I focus on keeping their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. I carefully follow all feeding instructions, medication schedules, exercise needs, and household guidelines. I’m very attentive to behavior changes and always trust my instincts if something seems off. Having been trusted to take pets to vet appointments before, I understand how important quick, responsible decision-making can be. I will treat your home with respect and your pet with patience, structure, and genuine care. You can expect clear communication and regular updates so you always feel confident and informed while you’re away.

About: I’ve been caring for cats and dogs for 32 years and genuinely love animals. Friends and neighbors regularly count on me to house sit and watch their pets, which is something I really enjoy. Your furry family members will be in good hands. I currently work as a nurse so my schedule is different week to week which allows me to have days off from that others may not have. This allows me the freedom and flexibility to care for your pets in whatever capacity is needed. I have an extra bedroom which can be closed off from my other two cats which roam the house freely. I live close to numerous parks to walk your pets as often as needed.

About: Growing up with dogs taught me how important consistency and care are. I’m responsible, easy to communicate with, and committed to providing a safe and positive environment. Whether it’s walks, feeding, or just spending time with them, I make sure every dog feels cared for. I’m a college student with a flexible schedule. I’m available on weekends and most weekdays, aside from a few hours of class. Pet care fits easily into my routine, and I have plenty of time to give dogs the attention, exercise, and care they need throughout the day. I provide care in my client’s home and always make sure to respect their space and routines. I follow any instructions you leave and help your pet stick to their normal schedule so they feel comfortable while you’re away.
