Pet Sitting Corralitos

About: I am currently an owner of two golden retriever/labrador mixes as well as a tabby cat and have four years of experience raising, playing with, taking care of, and walking them. They're both full of unlimited energy and I love them immensely, so I have plenty of experience with bigger, energetic dogs. I also have been picking up local dog sitting jobs over the past year and have experience watching dogs while their owners are away while providing entertainment, play, and care for them. I am currently a college student home for the summer who is free all day Monday-Sunday to help care for, play with, watch, or walk your dogs. I'm looking to pick up some side jobs over the summer to help pay for college expenses and would love to work with your family if our schedules align. I provide personalized care in my client's home so pets can feel comfortable in a familiar space while being attentive and respectful of the space. If provided a schedule regarding walks, feeding, medication, or more I will adhere to it as closely as possible. I can also provide constant communication, photos, and regular updates if needed to ease the owner's anxiety and provide peace of mind and confidence that their pet is safe and getting the utmost care.

“Excellent job again with my reactive guy. He was calm after she left which has not always been the case with dog sitters after they leave. She takes time to mellow him out and it pays off. Very grateful for your kindness and care for my pup <3”

“We went on a last minute trip & Lillian was so amazing with our two cats! One of our cats gets very nervous with people she doesn’t know & she did so well with Lillian. You can tell she really has a love for animals. 100% will book her again!”

About: I have taken care of animals my entire life, both my own and others’. I’m currently in a veterinary technician program, which gives me good perspective on the unique needs of your animals. I also have experience with dogs of all sizes, temperaments and life stages as well as cats and even rabbits. I can handle high energy dogs or puppies as well. I am in a veterinary technician program that I do remotely, which gives me the flexibility to care for your pets any day of the week! I live in a house with an unfenced yard, therefore because safety is my top priority I will always walk your dog on a leash for potty breaks and outdoor sniffing- they will never be left unattended. I have the capacity to take your dog out for activities like beach walks or hikes, as well as just chilling or snuggling. Because of my schedule I can also accommodate frequent bathroom breaks and specific feeding times. I have a very sweet, friendly resident cat who loves company. We love hosting dogs who are already socialized and comfortable around cats! My only other ask is that your pup be potty trained :)

About: I’ve owned seniors dogs, puppies and everything in between. Jack Russell Terrier to English Mastiff. I’ve also owned cats with diabetes that required insulin daily, neurotic quirky animals we’ve had to adapt to, chickens, goats, sheep, bearded dragons and other reptiles. We are an active family. Hilo and Koa go most places with us. However, there are times he must stay home in his covered kennel, fenced yard or inside depending on weather. We enjoy the rhythm of our daily routines just as much as all of our animals. To keep it humming everyone works in concert sharing the load of responsibilities.

About: I’ve taken care of and read book about dog behaviors and body language. I’ve had 13 personal dogs. And have taken care of well over 30 clients dogs and animals. They are the best creatures in the world My schedule starts off with morning feeding routine and then a walk! Or whatever routine you would like me to do with your baby I will stick to the routine that has been provided I have a big back yard and front yard. Both fenced in I have trained dogs in the house that can be separated from the dogs I take in or they can mingle up to the pet parent! Dogs are allowed on beds and furniture and around the home !

About: I have taken care and have 2 dogs/ 1 cat of my own that I actively care for. Also I have taken care of my family friends farm with all kinds of animals for days on end including walking, feeding, letting them out and in, etc. I also just love animals and love taking care of them! I work part time but normally only 4 hour shifts so i’m very flexible and can visit your animals multiple times throughout the day as well as working. I also only work around 3 days a week so i’m very available for the most part! In my home my dad has a service dog who is very well trained and also has a crate your pup could go in. We also have 2 older dogs with a fenced in outdoor area for them and a doggy door that gives them free access if going inside and out.

“Tarah was fantastic! She did 4 drop-ins a day with our 2 dogs and always sent updates and photos. Our Whippet/Husky mix can be quite a rascal, but Tarah handled her energy very calmly. Very friendly and reliable.”

About: As a lifelong dog lover, I’ve been caring for dogs since childhood, growing up with Labrador Retrievers and learning firsthand the importance of patience, consistency, and affection. Over the years, I’ve helped whelp litters, fostered rescue dogs (including one who became a beloved member of our family), and cared for dogs of all ages and temperaments. My home is peaceful and dog-friendly, shared with my sweet mixed-breed dog, Prema, and features a large, securely fenced yard for safe play and exploration. Daily walks, plenty of attention, and a calm, nurturing environment ensure that every dog in my care feels comfortable, loved, and right at home. I’m currently working from home, part-time, and teaching yoga at a nearby gym a couple of days a week, so your sweet pet would rarely be home on their own. My single-story home has a large, fenced yard where your dog can roam freely to play, take a sunbath, or chase butterflies. My 32 lb dog, Prema, will keep your dog company on daily walks and at home. The home has a doggie door, so your dog is free to roam in the house and outside. The doggie door is locked at night. Ideally, you would supply you dog’s favorite bed (although we have extras) a collar and leash, and preferred food with instructions on feeding timing, amount, etc. I want your pet to feel happy, safe, and have fun while here. 🦮

About: I provide dependable, attentive care tailored to your pets specific routine and personality. Because my schedule is highly flexible, I am available for consistent potty breaks, timely feedings, and plenty of one on one playtime without having to rush. Neighbors and friends have always trusted me with their animals because I prioritize safety, comfort, and peace of mind for the owners. I am currently living in Santa Cruz and focusing entirely on pet care. My wide-open schedule gives me the ultimate flexibility to fit seamlessly in your weekly routine, weather you need regular daily dog walks, early morning feedings, or someone around for companionship. Instead of a fenced yard, I focus on dedicated, one on one outdoor time. Your pet will receive my full attention on multiple leash-walks throughout the day to get their energy out. Indoors ill keep a sharp eye on them, clear away any potential hazards, and provide plenty of mental stimulation with games and toys so they are safe and entertained.

About: I have taken care of dogs and cats for years! Family and friends have trusted me with taking care of their pets and I love to be around pets! I have taken care of pets since I was little. I recently graduated physical therapy school and work part time on weekdays (20 hours/week) while studying for my national boards exam! My schedule varies, but I would be able to check on your pets about every 4-6 hours most days. Tuesday is my longest workday usually from 10am-8pm, but I would likely be able to stop in at some point during my day. I am only able to take care of pets in the clients home as I live in an apartment with no yard that does not allow pets.

“Alexia, was wonderful with our cats. Her communication was great and she was flexible when our plans changes slightly. I would definitely recommend Alexia and will book with her again.”

About: Dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember, and caring for them is something I truly enjoy. I have owned and cared for two dogs, including one who lived to the remarkable age of 22. My current dog is 15 years old and still acts like a puppy, giving me valuable experience caring for both senior dogs and energetic companions. In addition to caring for my own dogs, I have been dog sitting for friends and neighbors since I was around 13 or 14 years old. Over the years, I have gained experience with dogs of different ages, sizes, and personalities, helping with feeding, walks, playtime, companionship, and maintaining their regular routines while their owners are away. I understand that every dog is unique and deserves patient, attentive care. Whether your dog loves outdoor adventures, playtime, or simply relaxing with a companion, I will make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. My goal is to provide dependable care and give pet owners peace of mind knowing their dogs are in good hands. I am currently a part time surf instructor. My schedule varies week to week depending on how many lessons are booked. That means I will have lots of time to hang out and take care of your dogs! I live in a nice neighborhood with a spacious backyard that is fenced in with a mix of astroturf and small rocks. I also have a shed in the back where the dogs can hang out when it is either raining or when it is super hot outside. It is a perfect hangout spot for your dogs to enjoy!

About: I've walked dogs in the summer for families in my neighborhood. It brings me joy and I'm excited to help the people of Santa Cruz I work 30 hours so looking to fill up to a 40 hour work week. Doing a few times a week will add extra hours and would love to fill it with dogs I will always gain there trust first. Then move on to lots of play and snuggles. Depending on there needs, always gain there trust first

If you're looking for someone who truly understands animal behavior and safety, you've found them. Why choose me? Clinical Experience: Years of working in vet clinics and rehab centers mean I’m trained to handle everything from routine care to emergency situations.

I am committed to treating your pets with the same high standard of medical awareness and love that I give to my own. I currently can pet-sit and/or walk any time, any day of the week. I have transportation as required, and can stay the night easily. I will care for your animal however you would care for them if you were home. I have no problem administering medication, taking them on walks, cleaning up after them, etc. I have cared for a multitude of species (including wildlife!) so I am capable of handling situations.
