About: I’ve fostered dogs, senior dogs, cats, and kittens, and I have a dog of my own who means the world to me. 🐾 I treat every pet like my own with lots of love, patience, attention, and care. I’m comfortable with different personalities and needs, and my goal is always to make your pet feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away ⭐ I recently graduated from college and am taking a gap year, so I have lots of free time and a pretty flexible schedule. I love having pets as part of my day and genuinely enjoy spending time with them, whether that’s going for walks, playing, or simply keeping them company. I have a fenced yard where pets can safely enjoy some fresh air and playtime, and I live close to a dog park for extra walks and adventures. I also have a friendly dog who loves having furry friends around. I always make sure each pet’s personality, routine, and comfort level come first, so they feel safe, happy, and cared for while they’re with me.

About: I have had about 3 dogs in my entire lifetime and I love them! I have helped take care of family and friends dogs and I would love to walk your dog as well! I have Mondays and Fridays mainly free for the summer. I also have Wednesday midday and small hour slots throughout Tuesday and Thursday! If you have a pup who needs a way to burn energy throughout the day, I'll be there for them! Specific times: Monday: Any time Tuesday: 11-12:30; 5:30-10 Wednesday: 11-12:30; 3-10 Thursday: 11-2:15; 7:30-10 Friday: Any time Saturday: 5-10 Sunday: Any time I have a small backyard with a tall wall that would prevent dogs from running out. I have a relatively large first floor living area with lots of space for a dog to run around. I am home for the most part and am willing to constantly watch and care for a dog.

About: Hello! My name is Kody but I go by Julian 😊 I grew up surrounded by all kinds of pets, from big and little dogs and cats to hamsters, bunnies, and even a couple of hermit crabs! I’ve also cared for many friends’ and family members’ pets while they’ve been away, and I genuinely love getting to know each animal’s unique personality. Most recently, I cared for my roommate’s two senior cats, teaching me the importance of being patient, attentive, and consistent with older pets and their individual needs. I also became comfortable helping one of the cats with her asthma inhaler and other medical care. Whether I’m caring for a playful pup, a senior pet who needs a little extra attention, or a shy animal who takes time to warm up, I bring a gentle, attentive approach and treat every pet like they’re part of the family. I work Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday from 8:00 AM–5:00 PM, with a 1–1.5 hour break around 1:30 PM each day. I work fully remotely on Wednesdays, which gives me additional flexibility for pet care. I’m happy to provide care before or after my workday, during my lunch break when timing allows, and on weekends. During the summer (June 15–August 15), I also have Fridays off and am available throughout the day. I’m happy to work with you to find a schedule that keeps your pet comfortable, cared for, and on their normal routine. I understand how important your pets are to you, and I never take the responsibility of caring for them lightly. I treat every pet with the same kindness, patience, and attention I would want someone to give my own. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, boundaries, and individual needs so they can feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I’m attentive to feeding schedules, medications and special instructions, and I’m careful to maintain a clean and secure environment. My goal is always for your pet(s) to feel safe, loved, and well cared for while giving you peace of mind that they’re in good hands.

“Kristina truly went above and beyond when watching my dog while I was away. She recorded videos of every check in and walk, she sent updates on how he was doing and any possible concerns at the house, and she went out of her way to make sure he was comfortable during this crazy heat wave. I really appreciate her diligence and will definitely book again!”

“Quetzaly is a WONDERFUL sitter. I prefaced my request by saying I have high expectations for sitters, and that I like a certain level of care for my 3 cats. She said she treats all her clients the same way she does her own pets (as her children) and follows instructions exactly - and she did not disappoint! She got to know each of our cats’ unique personalities and cared for them appropriately. I am extremely satisfied with her work. We will absolutely be hiring her again! She communicates extremely well and provides detailed notes and pictures. Our cats adored her!!”

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life! I grew up on a farm surrounded by dogs and all kinds of animals, so caring for pets has always come naturally to me. I have my own small dog who I’ve raised since he was a puppy, and I love taking him on walks and to dog parks. I’m very patient, attentive, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I also occasionally volunteer at local dog shelters, which has given me experience caring for dogs with different personalities and needs. Your pet will be treated with the same love, patience, and care I give my own. ❤️🐾 I’m a UCR student with a flexible class schedule, so I’m able to work around your pet’s needs and provide care at a variety of times. I’m happy to accommodate different schedules and make sure your pet gets the attention and care they need. 🐾 I’ll treat your home and pets with the same care and respect I give my own. I’ll always prioritize their safety, follow your instructions and routines, and make sure they feel comfortable, loved, and cared for in their own space. 🐾❤️

“Kim was awesome! During our time in Montgomery, she took the best care of Gabby. Gabby’s back legs don’t work and she can be a LOT to handle but that didn’t bother Kim! She loved on Gabby as if she was her own fur baby. I never worried once about her missing a visit or being late. If we ever come back to the area, we will be repeat clients FOR SURE :)”

About: I will care for your puppy with a lot of love and respect, and I can follow your step-by-step instructions on how to care for your furry family member. I am loving, caring, fun, and very hygienic. I also offer grooming services with relaxing pet massages. I am confident that if you trust me with your furry, they will want to come back and be part of our home and daily activities. I have 10 years of experience caring for pets, during which I have learned to truly love them. I believe that pets are guardians of the human heart. Their purpose is to bring joy and love to those who welcome them and make them part of their family. My schedule is flexible from Monday to Sunday. At the moment I'm at home all week and willing to take care of and have fun with your furry. Plenty of places to go out for walks with our family and plenty of snuggles to receive from our kiddos. I live in a lovely home with a small but beautiful garden where pets can relax and enjoy fresh air. I’m located right in the heart of Riverside, a great area for daily walks and neighborhood strolls, and I love taking cute photos along the way. I don’t currently have pets of my own, so your furry friend will receive my full attention, care, and love at all times.

About: I have grown up with dogs, and have enjoyed taking care of friends and family members dogs of all ages. During college, I worked at a pet store that taught me the importance of daily exercise and mental stimulation for our furry friends’ well being! I am happy to care for pets young and old, and will always do my best to review all of your pet’s specified needs! I’m currently working in a flexible job with often changing hours, so I am able to pick up opportunities for a consistent routine or something temporary. I will look after your pet by ensuring all gates are closed, and doors are opened very carefully! I have experience watching some “escape artist” dogs, so ensuring dogs are safely in their home and the backyard is secured is a big priority for me.

Kimberly was great! It was my first time leaving my cat alone for the weekend and using Rover, so I was nervous, but Kimberly sent consistent updates and lots of pictures. I appreciate her communication and going above and beyond what was asked of her. I’d definitely recommend her services.

Samantha looked after my dog Raven on short notice and was great! She was able to meet her beforehand to make sure she was a good fit. She took the interaction with my dog slow as she is shy with new people. After the drop in visit she left a great summary which let me know my dog was well taken care of. I will be using her in the future!
