House Sitting in Clearlake Oaks

“Skip and Pablo loved Tim 😍 Everything was taken care of as we asked, and Tim is a helpful and professional young man. Skip, who is slow to warm with most other dogs, got along well with Cali. It was cute seeing the two of them cuddled together 💖 Cali was not aggressive with our cat 🐈 either when she was in the house 🏡. Tim and Cali are a great team and make even small skiddish pets comfortable.”

About: I’ve taken early retirement and have a lot of time in my hands. I have been pet sitting for a client with four dogs, a chihuahua , two frenchies and occasionally a German shepherd in their home. I cook their food, and I am a great housecleaner so your space will be nice when you come back home. I will take loving care of your cat or dog, only one pet at a time unless they are from the same household. I do not have any pets of my own at this time, which allows me flexibility in my schedule to be able to pet sit. I look forward to taking care of your fur baby. I took early retirement, so I will be home with the pet all day and night for whatever is needed. I have experience with senior dogs and frenchies. I am clean and considerate and love to spend time with animals. Your pet will receive personal attention and care with affection. I look forward to taking care of your pets.

“Cece was fantastic! I felt totally comfortable with her staying at my house with my dog. She communicated really well and I would book her again without hesitation.”

About: Hello I’m a dedicated, honest, and reliable pet sitter/walker. I have loved animals my whole life, my family has always had multiple dogs at a time. I was 16 when I started working at a doggy day care (called stay and play dog care), where I got to work around no less than 15 dogs at a time and I absolutely loved it. I was in charge of walking, feeding, training, playing and occasionally staying the night with them. I have the ability to walk up to 8 dogs at one. I left that job for schooling to become a Certified Veterinary Assistant, I am currently working in the veterinary field but I would love to pet sit in my free time. I have crates and a fenced yard for any time dogs will have to be left alone but I try my best not to leave them while they are in my care. I will care for your pet like one of my own. I am currently home full time so I have all the time in the world to spend with your pets while they’re in my care! While your pets are in my home they will have lots of toys to play with as well as fresh water in several different locations. I do recommend that you bring the food your pet is used to as the less change the better for your animals stress levels.

“Karen watched our fur family for a week and we found her to be responsible, caring, engaged, conscientious and trustworthy, Karen has a true love of animals, and she connected with our pets right away. Animals were well taken care of, their regular schedule maintained, the house was tidy, and all plants watered and in healthy condition. We would love to have her stay with our furkids again. :) A great experience”

About: I’ve loved and cared for animals for as long as I can remember. Currently, each of my family members is in a transitional stage of life (kids are in college), myself included (contemplating the next chapter), so none of us has any companion animals for the time being. Fostering has filled the gap somewhat and I’ve found that pet & house sitting does, too! I was an at-home wife & mom & spent my adult years homeschooling, volunteering, caretaking through cancer, organizing, and caring for a large home/pool/property &, of course, for our companion animals. I'm not a "neat freak," but I will leave another's home as it was found, or cleaner. I'm compassionate & nurturing by nature, so please feel free to let me know your needs and wishes. My schedule is entirely flexible, with advance notice. For those farther away: I love to travel and appreciate requests to sit in far-off locations; however, I must ask that either 15-30 days notice is provided for making arrangements (& finding affordable flight deals, which I will happily do & pay for, if the location is one I’d have visited anyway) OR that travel be paid for in full by the pet parent as part of the job. (Nightly rates can be adjusted to account for costs such as gas, flights, and/or ground transportation.) Please be mindful that international travel can cost into the thousands of dollars, may require more than 30 days for planning, and is not typically in my own budget. My passport is ready, though! I’m pleased to be being considered for this important job! Please know that I'll be available via phone/text (& trust that you will, too, at least for emergencies), would love to share pics if you wish (or would be happy to limit communication, if that's your preference), am adept at managing minor issues of urgency independently (but will confer with you if at all possible, as soon as possible), and will take seriously any necessary special precautions for the animals or the home (escape artists, meds, anxiety/sleep needs, food limitations, no off-leash time or things like mail/trash, off-limits rooms, a toilet that's out of use, plant handling, etc.). I'm largely a homebody and my primary goals are to be someplace new/different & be with your babies, so I will be present daily, including overnight if that’s what we’ve arranged, and will not host parties or people (unless one or both of my grown kids are with me, which we'll have discussed in advance). I might spend significant time studying if I'm taking a class (most likely online) and I may need to handle some of the tasks of daily life (getting groceries, etc.) during longer stays, but my priority will be to keep the animals and home you've entrusted me with safe, properly cared for, and tidy in your absence. That said, if there are places your buddy(ies) wanna go (trails, beaches, dog parks, obedience classes, the groomer's, etc.), we'll get out of the house and get our energy out! (And if slow/short walks or lots of lap time are what's in order, we'll readily do that, too.)

“Christine was amazing! She took such great care of our pups while we were gone. We will definitely use Christine in the future”

“Jacqueline is incredible. She is very communicative. She came early and got settled with the dogs. The dogs loved her. She went above and beyond. Would absolutely use her again to doggy sit our dogs.”

Neel G.

“Christopher is a true dog lover and I feel fortunate to have found him to take care of my pack whenever I’m not around. I have a lot of attendant anxiety when trying to pair my dogs with a suitable sitter- for no other reason than that they need a lot of exercise and ask for a lot of attention. Christopher alleviated every ounce of attendant stress experienced by leaving my dogs in someone’s care. He took my dogs on outings, updated me with charming photos and was completely unflappable when it came to managing two high energy and young labs along with a corgi who needs to herd everyone to feel fulfilled. On top of all of this, Christopher took excellent care of my home- maybe even leaving it cleaner than I did for him. 5 stars for Christopher, absolutely!”

About: I've taken excellent care of dogs, cats, and livestock for the past 25 years. Neighbors, friends and my own family have always been able to rely heavily on me to take great care of their pets. I've also got my own business page on facebook as well. I'm currently looking to expand my pet sitting and ranch care services, and am available pretty much any day of the week to provide my services. I don't offer to board other animals at my home for liability reasons. I have 1 horse, 2 dogs, and 1 cat. All 4 of my animals get pampered every single day with the best food that monet can buy, and all the love in the world from me. I'm currently not employed, and so am working on trying to expand my business as an animal care provider. You can also find me on facebook by searching for Kimi's Pet & Ranch Care Services. I treat each and every animal like they were my own. For example, I don't allow just anyone to come and take care of my 4 animals as I'm pretty protective of them, and would absolutely treat your 4 legged fur babies the same way

“What a wonderful person! My dog absolutely loves her! And so do we. We felt so much better knowing our dog was with someone who would treat him like family. She even watered our garden while we were gone! She is a gem. If I could give her more stars, I would have! Thank you Susan!”

Nancy M.

“Julia, was the best fur baby sitter yet! Our dog Lola absolutely ❤️❤️❤️’s her so much! She gives her the happy Dance, butt wiggle, groans of joy! Our cat, gives her kisses and Julia, gives us lots of updates with photos and all. We will definitely be booking with her again. You should too!”

“Sarah was incredible with our puppies. She was so down to earth, reliable and knowledgeable with our fur babies. I loved how engaged she was; it was wonderful to relax on our afternoon of wine tasting knowing that our pups were safe and well taken care of❤️”

About: Growing up in a rural home with dogs, cats, chickens, sheep, cows, goats, etc. came a strong passion for animals and caring for them came naturally. Always a lover of all animals big or small, old or young - at age 12, I began pet sitting / dog walking for neighbors, friends, family, etc. I have boarded, walked, fed, bathed, administered medications, etc. for dozens of animals over the years. I’ve got experience with it all! More flexible than a pipe cleaner when it comes to your schedule needs. Communicative and available on a dimes notice, I am always willing to go the extra mile when you need me! I will care for your pets as if they were my own! I am reliable, trustworthy, and flexible. With your pet, we can walk, play, go to the park, exercise, snuggle, etc. Whatever you are comfortable with! Their stay - your way :) Your little fur baby will be in the best hands whenever we are together :)

“DeAnna took great care of our little puppy Chianti while we were out all afternoon/evening at a wedding. She arrived early to make sure she had time to get to know the dog and ask any questions before we left. She also sent us a couple great photo updates throughout the evening. If we are ever in the area again we would definitely reach out to her. Thanks DeAnna!”

About: I have always had a deep love for animals, and my experience caring for pets reflects that passion. Over the years, I’ve owned, walked and watched dogs of all breeds, providing them with exercise, companionship, and personalized attention. I understand the importance of routine and am committed to ensuring your pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for. Whether it’s a leisurely stroll or playtime at the park, I’m dedicated to giving your dog the best care while you’re away. My approach is patient, reliable, and attentive, making sure your pet’s needs are always met. As a full time student attending her undergrad at Chico State my schedule is very flexible, everyday of the week is available to care for your pets. When caring for pets, I prioritize their safety, trust, and comfort, whether in your home or mine. In my home, I ensure a pet-friendly environment with secure areas for play and rest, keeping potential hazards out of reach. I make sure your cat or dog has access to fresh water, food, and a clean space to relax. I have a fenced in backyard in a safe small neighborhood. For walks, I use secure leashes and collars, and I am always vigilant of the environment around us to ensure their safety. In your home, I follow your pet's routine as closely as possible, providing a familiar and calm atmosphere. I respect your home and keep it tidy, ensuring your pet feels at ease and has everything they need while you're away. Trust is key, and I always maintain open communication with updates so you can rest easy knowing your pet is in good hands.
