House Sitting Cottages North

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life and I appreciate every minute I have with them and all animals. I created my own dog walking business several years ago and gained lots of experience working with and observing the ways dogs function. I am currently Undergrad at UC Davis but use my free time to walk the dogs at Yolo County Animal Shelter. These days, I am working hard at school but appreciate the time I have with any animal! Besides the occasional study session or family vacation, I am free! I am comfortable crating, feeding, watering or walking any pets! I am happy to help take care of other household chores like watering plants or taking in mail!

“Kelly is so amazing! She is very communicative and sent us lots of pictures and updates on our girls which was so nice when traveling. Both our dogs absolutely adore her and from the updates could tell they were very comfortable with her! She truly goes above and beyond! We’ll definitely have Kelly come watch our girls again in the future!”

“Sydney has been great with our very anxious dog. She also takes amazing pictures of our girl, who is *very* good at spoiling pictures, but can't evade Sydney!”

“Sofia was lovely with our small elderly dog! She took him along on a few of her outings and was attentive to his needs, making sure to give him his meds. I would use her again!”

“Chrissy was an awesome house sitter for our energetic, 1-year-old golden/husky mix! She gave regular updates and kept him entertained. Would definitely book again and recommend!”

“Xitlalli is amazing! Not only did she keep me updated while she was babysitting but also sent the cutest pictures :) Most of all...I had piece of mind knowing our Jersey girl was in great hands! No worries whatsoever! Definitely would book Xitlalli again!!”

About: I have pet sitted some of my relatives dogs, i would properly feed them, and would ask on what they can and cannot have, or allergies. I would walk them as well. I am available on weekends and weekdays, 11am-8pm. I do not have current work, but i do have appointments at times so some days I cannot pet sit. I have two dogs, a pitbull and an old chihuahua. They have a fenced home and a good home inside. The pitbull is very kind to other people. Though I do have dogs, I will only be dog walking.

About: I have many years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of different breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities, including paid pet-sitting experience. I'm also a proud dog owner, so I understand how important it is to find someone dependable and trustworthy to care for your furry family members. I have experience caring for puppies, including helping with basic training, positive reinforcement, potty training, leash manners, and establishing consistent routines. I understand that puppies require extra patience, attention, and encouragement as they learn and grow. What sets me apart is my patience, reliability, and genuine love for animals. I take the time to get to know each dog's unique personality, energy level, and needs. Whether it's an energetic puppy who loves to play or a laid-back dog who enjoys a relaxing walk, I tailor my care to help them feel comfortable and happy. I believe communication is just as important as quality pet care. I'll follow your instructions closely, respect your home, and provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands. My goal is simple: to treat every pet with the same love, kindness, and attention I give my own dog, Pepper! Pet care is already a natural part of my daily routine as a proud dog owner. I'm used to planning my day around walks, feeding schedules, potty breaks, playtime, and making sure pets receive plenty of love and attention. As an independent contractor, I have a very flexible schedule throughout the week, including weekdays and weekends. This allows me to accommodate a variety of pet-care needs, whether it's an early morning walk, a midday drop-in visit, an evening potty break, or overnight house sitting. I enjoy spending time outdoors and staying active, so dog walking and caring for pets fit naturally into my lifestyle. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, and I'm happy to work around their schedule to keep them comfortable and happy. I'm dependable, organized, and committed to showing up on time, following instructions, and providing regular updates and photos. My goal is to offer flexible, reliable, and personalized care that gives pet parents peace of mind knowing their furry family members are in good hands! Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. As a longtime dog owner with years of pet-care experience, I understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member. When caring for pets in a client's home, I do my best to maintain their familiar routines and environment to help them feel comfortable and secure. I carefully follow instructions for feeding, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and any special needs or preferences. I also respect your home, keep doors and gates secure, and make sure your pet is supervised and cared for appropriately. During walks, I pay close attention to each dog's behavior, energy level, and surroundings, always prioritizing safe handling and positive experiences. For puppies, I'm happy to reinforce established training routines and provide the extra patience and attention they need. I believe trust is built through reliability and communication. I'll provide regular updates and photos, and I'll never hesitate to reach out if I have questions or concerns. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your pet is safe, happy, and receiving the same kindness and attention I give my own dog.

About: I've taken care of pets since I was a child. I have a 17 year old dorkie (dachshund/yorkshire terrier mix) at home that I love very much! I've used my free time to volunteer at animal shelters and would love another way to interact with animals while I attend law school. I attend law school so before and after class, as well on the weekends, I am available! I can be even more flexible on days that I don't have class. As I have my own pet I know to make sure to pay attention to whatever they want and need whether it's food, play time, nap time, or to go outside!

About: Growing up, my family fostered sick kittens and raised rats. Now, I love working with critters of all sorts, and I'd love to get to know yours. I offer a flat rate with no upcharge for additional animals or medical needs. As a PhD student, my schedule is especially flexible over the summer. I am usually in Sacramento a few days per week and Davis otherwise, but I'm happy to work with your schedule. With reliable wifi, I'm happy to work from your home to accommodate your pet's schedule. Availability for frequency of potty breaks/walks varies; just ask! On all visits, if anything seems off, I will check in right away--better safe than sorry.

“Suhani stayed at my house and took care of my senior dog for 3 days recently. I love the fact that she was very responsible and communicative. She is punctual whenever we scheduled to meet, and let me know when she is expected to arrive at my house on the first day of dog/house-sitting. She texted me daily to keep me informed. My dog, now in his senior years, is prone to overnight accidents. Suhani was very understanding and cleaned up afterwards exactly the way I instructed. My dog was well taken care of, and Suhani left my house in great shape. I highly recommend Suhani and would hire her again.”

“Devi was great. We’ve already booked with her again! Devi was very responsive when booking. We were impressed by how professional she was when she came over for a meet-and-greet. Most importantly, she handled our easily overexcited, enormous dog perfectly—she was calm, let him set the pace, and he quickly relaxed with her. Devi sent updates and pics, so we were able to enjoy our weekend without worries.”

“Michelle was very reliable and provided consistent communication while we were away from our pups. Her professionalism allowed us to not worry and truly enjoy our vacation.”

About: I’ve owned dogs my whole life, as well as all sorts of other animals. I watch my sisters dogs on a weekly basis, and love to help others! I’m a fan of medium to large dogs, and I’m on time, with reliable transportation. I will treat your fur-baby with the same amount of love that I do mine! I’m currently taking a break from regular work, looking to babysit and pet sit for a few months to bring some joy into my life! I’m available weekdays anytime, and Sundays from 1pm into the night. Some Saturdays, can be flexible. I keep my home clean and well maintained. I open feed my own cats, and spend time with them whenever possible. I like to clean my littler boxes every day, and when I had a dog of my own, I would walk her 4-5 times a day, and play with her all the time. I love training, and engaging with animals. I’m happy to care for your pets however you see fit, as long as it includes lots of love!

“We booked Cheryl for last minute peace-of-mind and it was everything we needed to enjoy our vacation. Our dogs were well looked after, and Cheryl took excellent care of our home.”

“Bella was very attentive to our pups and we would definitely use her again for daytime sitting/walking.”

About: I have loved animals ever since I was young, spending a lot of time taking care of my own, family, and friend’s pets. From high energy play to slow and chill pets I have experienced it all. My personal pet, Luke, is my pride and joy, he loves to play all of the time and even knows sit, stand, follow, high five, and first bump! 🐱 My goal is to make sure your pets feel the love and quality care I make sure to treat my fur baby with. ♥️ I am currently working remotely, thus, I have tons of time to give your pets plenty of love and care! If you need any specifics please let me know, I am willing to work with you and take care of your needs hassle free. I personally have a 7 month old kitten and I believe the care I provide for him highlights the level of care I would provide your pet. While my cat has a very out going and high energy personality, I also love and enjoy pets who are shy or reserved. I can change my care as needed. However, the following is the care I provide my pet. - Litter Box scooping 2x a day - Preparing and Feeding 2x a day - Plenty of Play Time - Training with Treats - Tons of cuddles - Brushing - Teeth brushing daily

About: I have owned dogs and cats of all shapes and sizes since I was born. Now, I have worked as a vet assistant for 6 years in both general practice and oncology. I have helped with emergencies for all kinds of breeds and done overnight care several times. I also work and volunteer at shelters consistently so I know how to deal with animal stress. I have never met an animal I didn't love no matter its personality and demeanor so I know they are in good hands. I am a college student but have gaps in my day to go back to my apartment and take them out. I would never leave a pet at home for more than 2 hours and live with just my fiance and I also well equipped in pet care, but I will be doing the caregiving. I love every furry friend and it would be a joy rather than a chore to help care for each pet. I am well versed in medication administration, feeding, playtime, small training activities, and more. Depending on the breed or species, I would ensure I am thorough with each pets need and go from there whether thats exercise and play or just chilling on the couch.

“Annika took great care or our pets and also our house for several days while we were away. She was very punctual, followed instructions, and easy to communicate with. She was very good about sending updates and photos and everything looked perfect when we got back. I would highly recommend her.”
