“Jesse responded to our very last minute request to manage our 2 hounds over the weekend. We met virtually , reviewed feeding instructions, etc. He provided good care to our mutts, sending pix each check-in. He problem solved a little front door issue with calm and all went well. Recommend 👍”


About: I have 12 years of experience in animal care and a life time of loving animals. I am a licensed registered veterinary technician. I have personal experience with senior care.

About: I have had pets since I can remember and I have loved every single one of them. I currently have 3 cats 2 of which are around 12 and the 3rd is around 3. As well as 2 dogs who are 8 and 4. They are my babies and I treat them with nothing but love and care. I have also fostered 4 kittens at different times, all finding loving and caring homes I am currently only working one day a week so I have plenty of time to be there for all your animals needs, I have 3 cats, 2 dogs, and a snake of my own that I take care of daily as well as past foster kittens. With my own pets I have had to administer medication and supplements so I am well aware of the responsibilities that comes with those needs. In my home my dogs are indoor and get feed 3 times a day everyday. My cats are indoor/outdoor and come in at night and are trained to do so. I know how to get a cat to come in if they are being a little stubborn as well as getting dogs to go out to use the restroom as needed.

About: I've taken care of many pets over the years, most of my life from my own pets to family,friends and neighbors pets. Feeding, Walking, Playing to just hanging out with them and giving them love and comfort. I've taken care of pets that needed special care such as administering medicine, feeding on set schedule for specific dietary needs and giving extra care to those pets who get extreme separation anxiety. I'm currently looking for a Full-time or Part-time recurring gig to those who may travel often for business or pleasure and last minute emergency trips. Drop in visits, Dog Walking and House sitting I am free most days/nights Monday through Sunday. I'm flexible. I will need to care for your pets in your home as I cannot currently offer services out of my apartment. I'm hoping in the near future to move into a bigger space so that I may be able to then offer more services such as overnight care/boarding and day care.

“Zack took great care of our two dogs, Bubbles and Cutie. He was friendly during our initial meeting. Zack maintained very good communication with me while we were away, including the potty, water and meal breaks. Also sent cute pictures and left a note. He seems to be a friend to all the pet creatures, from the reptiles, dogs, and cats that he has.”


“Jose always provides top notch care when we need help with our four legged kids. I feel incredibly fortunate to have found such a wonderfully compassionate and reliable sitter. Every time we’ve relied on help from Jose, we’ve been beyond pleased and grateful to have his support when we can’t be home with the fur babies. Can’t say enough about the gift of freedom to leave home and the piece of mind Jose has provided our family when we’ve needed to be gone. Thank you again so very much for the help, Jose! We’re infinitely grateful!!!”

About: My husband and I don't currently have kids, and share an immense love for dogs. Yours would get our undivided attention and love. We're both healthy and enjoy walks (if that's what your dog likes) but also love being lazy and relaxing inside with them too. We're attentive and comfortable administering medicines if needed, and are happy to respect any special dietary needs as our dog has his own unique ones as well. I work full time, but work from home some days and have some flexibility with my schedule. Weekend days are best as we're both home all the time, but we can also help on weekdays. My husband works later and usually leaves for work in the afternoon and I get home a few hours after he leaves, so there isn't a long gap where our dog is alone. I have a fenced yard and a dachshund that is friendly and chill. Our neighborhood is very safe, your dog wouldn't ever go outside unless leashed.

About: I have been around animals my entire life. From fish, rats, rabbits, cats, and dogs of all sizes... Mini dachshunds to an English Mastiff. I have also put quite a bit of time into training my labs, whom are my babies! I currently just resigned from my full time job to be home more and continue working my part time job from home, so my availability is pretty open. Pet care for my own animals is always a priority in my house, my girls are spoiled. I will always treats others animals with the same care, as they too are someone else's babies.

About: Throughout high school and college, I often helped out friends and neighbors by dog sitting when they couldn't take their pets on trips. I’m a huge dog lover, and I really adore all kinds of pets. Over the years, I've earned the complete trust of my friends and neighbors when it comes to looking after their pets and homes. They know they can count on me to provide loving care and ensure everything is safe and sound while they're away. I am currently working at a mental health facility. I work 3:00 pm Sun-Wed. Although I am full time I am always happy to lean a hand. Free on Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays as well. I am also willing to Sundays off! I was born and raised in the Central Valley. Growing up on a farm made me exposed to many animals and I grew immense love for them. I had a wonderful time taking care of my beloved pets: a Labrador, German Shepherd, Cocker Spaniel, and a Chihuahua. They were all my babies, and I also had a horse that I adored. I'm a huge animal lover, and I miss them every day now that they are living with my older sister.

About: Ive taken care of many dogs in my life. Ive had two geriatric and disabled dogs that i cared for, i currently have 2 big high energy dogs and one small dog that im very good with. Ive met countless dogs that i connect with and adore aswell. I do have a part-time job so sometimes i wont be able to pet sit, but I have a set schedule a month in advance and am a great planner so there will never be any willy nilly planning. Regardless of where i am, I care for pets by giving them attention when they need it and how they need it. If i need to go with them everywhere it will be done, however they need help and their preferred way of receiving it will also be done.
