About: I’ve been caring for pets for a few years, mostly for close friends and family. Whether it’s feeding, walking, or just keeping them company while their family is away, I’ve always treated pets as my own. I often help with housesitting and babysitting as well, so I’ve learned to also juggle multiple responsibilities. I’m currently home for the summer from college, therefore, I have open availability and the flexibility to provide consistent pet care. With no current academic commitments, I am able to build my daily routine around the pets I care for! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always do my best to keep their routines as normal and comfortable as possible. I’m not afraid to ask clarifying questions about your pets to ensure I am giving them the best care. :)

About: I own and take care of my own 4 cats and love every minute I have with them. I am very reliable and detail oriented. I am available most days and evenings to provide pet care at the customer’s convenience. I can make myself available to accommodate any customer schedule. I can feed, provide water, change litter and play with your cats. I can do the same for dogs as well as walk them around your neighborhood.

About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was around ten years old. I have experience from pigs, bunnies, turtles, to cats and of course dogs! I have raised puppies of my own and senior dogs as well. I love pets in all shapes, sizes and most importantly, personalities! I have even volunteered at the animal shelter to make sure I can provide those without owners, a loving experience with genuine care. I will always put your furry loved ones first and give them not only the best care possible, but also a loving home away from home where they feel comfortable and loved! I am a full time student at UCSB where I only attend a couple of classes in the morning for only a few hours at a time. I live very close to campus so I am always able to come home in between classes. I am very much a home body so I have pretty much a free schedule to bond and play with your furry loved one! My home is very safe, it is a studio with a smaller backyard. There is much space inside for your furry loved ones to play and the best part is the dog park across the street! For those whose house I will be entering, I will always listen to any special instructions and be very respectful of your space.

About: I have experience walking big dogs as well as small dogs ranging from Great Danes to chihuahuas, I also grew up around big and small dogs including chihuahuas, German shepherds, pit bulls, and golden retrievers I am currently going to school online so I have a lot of free time during the day and night so I would love to help someone out and have something to do!! My home has a fenced in backyard and i could keep pet inside if preferred. In your home I will have no problem keeping up with your rules both inside and outside

About: Pretty much all of my life I’ve had a pet or two within my household. My first pet I remember clearly have a lot of responsibilities for was a cat I had when I was around 7. I would feed her, clean her litter box, and overall assist my family with caring for her. A couple years later I got a Golden Retriever and it was this dog that showed me how much I love animals. Once again I was always willing to help with her care, taking her for walks, giving her baths, and brushing her hair whenever needed. Now I have two dogs that I take extension care of and that I love to death. I bathe them, feed them, play with and take for walks. I’m currently employed and work a part time job, with a majority of my focus being towards school. I attend classes Monday-Thursday. At the moment I am currently on winter break so when I’m not working I spend most days with my dogs. I take them for walks regularly, feed them everyday, and give them attention all throughout the days. I grew up being taught to treat animals and other living things with respect and kindness. When I dog sit animals I abide by the rules given to me by owners and will care completely for the animals. I will feed whatever pets exactly how I am instructed, let them go outside to use the restroom regularly, and play with them extensively. I love animals a lot and I will probably spoil the animals with lots of love and attention if allowed. When walking my own dogs I allow my dogs to go potty and will pick up after them, I would let the dogs walk wherever they choose to go. I know that the dogs walks are for them to go out and get some fresh air and go potty.

“Joshua is great with our sweet shep girl. He is enthusiastic when he greets her and always gives us a report about how the walk went. Our pup looks forward to his visits!”

“Tuesday is great with Bailey. Very flexible with scheduling. I feel safe and secure leaving Bailey while I am away, because I know she is in good hands.”

About: I love and have cared for dogs since I was 15, I have patience for any breed and I have open availability. My most recent dog I cared for is a pug. He was a puppy and I trained him how to go on the pee pads and when he got a little older we went for walks. I always go for walks, always make sure the puppy/dog gets enough attention, food and water. I have watched all sizes of breeds from chihuahua to a husky, unfortunately because I just moved into an apartment I could not watch bigger breeds from home but I am always willing to drive to you! I am super reliable, very trustworthy and respectful. Thank you for reading, I hope to hear from you soon!

About: What truly sets my pet sitting services apart from other sitter is not just providing basic care, but going above and beyond to ensure their pets are happy, healthy, and secure weather its in my house or their house. They need to feel comfortable at all time. I also take the time to understand each pet's individual personality, quirks, and specific needs, ensuring they feel safe, and genuinely cared for in their own environment. As for senior pets, I am aware they need more help with administering medication and mobility issues. Im currently working a part-time job as a babysitter so I have plenty of time in the mornings. I can also work during the night for those who go out of town and need someone to watch over their pet. Im also fixable over the weekends. I'm here to provide consistent, trustworthy service so you can relax knowing your companion is in good hands.I understand how much you care about your pet, and I'm committed to providing a safe and joyful experience for them. I offer fun and engaging walks, along with caring in-home visits when you can't be there. I will treat your pet as if it was one of my own.

About: Old, young, doesn’t matter, they have my full attention. Whatever they need they get, let me give you peace of mind when they’re with me! I’m a stay at home mom with an adorable 6month old baby! Would love to try and bring extra money in and watch your furbabies! I have a fenced yard! And 1 dog, I can walk your pet if you’d like and definitely play with them! Whatever you need done!

About: Hi my name is Courtney, I am a Bakersfield resident and currently work part time around the corner from my house. I’ve been dog sitting friends dogs the last few years to help them out, this year I’ve been dog sitting for friends of friends. Since I have the time I wanted to provide my dog sitting services to others who are in need of a sitter since I enjoy it and it feels like second nature. I am currently working part time and have plenty of time to care for your pup. I will walk, and provide plenty of pets for your fur baby. I have a clean pet friendly home to keep your pup comfortable and safe. I can keep your dog on your schedule and provide medication if needed.

About: I have had animals all my life and I have taken care of my friends pets before. I have also had animals that have special medical issues. I take care of my animals in the morning before my college classes. Then I come home and let my kittens out and wash my dog about once a week and take care of her skin. I am used to walking for long periods of time. I also have experience with taking care of my friends pets for long periods of time. I mostly like to walk animals.

About: *MEET & GREET IS REQUIRED FOR FIRST TIME BOOKERS WITH Me* I have been working in the field as a vet assistant for almost 4 years now. I have immensely enjoyed caring for animals, and would love to continue that even outside of work. Both cats and dogs are welcomed; I do have 2 cats of my own. I grew up surrounded by cats, so I would say I have that feline touch. I understand that cats have vastly different personalities and may not want to be touched or played with. But if your cat happens to love playing and being petted, then I will happily meet those needs. I believe that open communication and transparency is important, so you’ll receive regular updates on your pets well-being while you’re away. I am skilled at administering oral medications and even subcutaneous injections, if needed. As well as caring for special needs and or elderly pets. I am trained in understanding body language and how to recognize signs of illness in pets. I am mostly available for walks, drop-ins, and house sittings. I have a part time job, and I am a student, so I will update my calendar regularly to reflect my availability to properly care for your pet. The safety of your pet is important to me and is a task I take very seriously. Your pet is in safe hands with me.

About: My family and I just would like to be able to love your pet while you are away. Whatever I can do to help and make your dog feel welcome and safe in our home will be done. They are more then just a pet they are family. We know this first hand with our golden. Walks, dog park, belly rubs, naps, play time with my kids, your dog would be treated as one of our own fur babies. If you have any questions while you are away, an update or just a pic of your fur baby i am here to make you feel comfortable about your decision leaving your dog in our care. Hope to hear from you soon. I work full time but have a very flexible schedule that allows me to come and go as needed. I also can work from home. I have a brick wall around my property and a grass area just for dogs, dog house and doors from my living room so I can always have a watchful eye on my dogs.

About: I’ve been volunteering at the shelter for the last several years. I participate in their cruising canines program that has me take a shelter pup out weekly for a few hours to burn energy. This includes going for walks, swimming, going to get a puppacino or just cruising in the car and wind surfing! I’ve taken all dog sizes and am physically fit enough to take on larger dogs. I’ve had animals of my own since I was 7 years old. Anywhere from ducks, to pigs, to dogs, cats and geese! I live a very active lifestyle and fitness is a huge part of my daily routine. I have 4 dogs of my own and understand how a pet is more than just a pet, they are a family member! I work from home as a seamstress, which allows for my schedule to be very flexible. Last minute bookings to planned bookings work for me! All of my dogs are inside dogs. They are treated with the same care as humans, if not more. Comfort is top priority for my animals and I understand every pet will require something different. No 2 animals are the same and volunteering at the shelter has helped me learn that quickly! I feel I am very good at a reading the situation and would never do anything to make an animal feel uncomfortable.

“Natalia is a very kind and generous provider who clearly loves dogs. Easy to work with, communicative, and professional.”
