“Julissa and her husband did a wonderful job looking after our Misty when we were out of town for one week. We scheduled to have them drop in on her in our back yard and the weather got really hot while we were away. They paid her an extra visit to make sure she was taken care of and were able to arrange a solution to keep her inside and out of the heat. They’re kind, excellent with communication and genuinely cared for our dog. We can’t wait to hire them again.”

About: I have always had a passion for animals and it seems they’ve always been drawn to me! Growing up my mom owned a small pet sitting business. We took care of dogs, cats, birds, even an entire farm. Over the years of helping my mom and pet sitting on my own, I’ve gained plenty of knowledge and patience for all furry friends! I have my own small business as a licensed esthetician, so whenever I don’t have clients scheduled, I am totally free to play with your pets! I have a 1 bedroom apartment with a small yard that has public access. I live with my 3.5 year old male cat, but he is very tolerant of dogs! Pet friendly space for your furring friends to visit!

“Michaelle was so patient and flexible with my changing schedule! My cat also looks very happy to see her in the pictures she sent while checking on him!”

About: I keep up to date on tips and tricks for dog care! I used to work for Bark Magazine, as well as a pet sitting company based in Davis. I have experience dog sitting all sizes of dog (from Chihuahuas to Danes!) as well as cats! I have experience sitting pups training to become well-behaved and responsible dogs. (behavior, potty, etc.) Message me and we can make sure your fur family is well taken care of! I am working full-time at the moment, so I am available most days during/around midday. I am good to work around your schedule if you have work during the day as well! If the ground/cement it too hot for walks I'll try to get dogs to play or run around in whatever area is available (backyard/larger living space). I usually like to take them to parks, when the weather is nice. I’ve always taken care of pets, whether for my family, neighbors, or clients! I often like taking walks during lunch so walking or visiting pets during that time is very normal for me. I love to use what is available to me! If you have a small yard or a nice walkway near your home, I’ll make the most of it. Same goes for cats, a good toy basket or a nice place to find them is always helpful!

“Nicholas was amazing with our 3 cats and they all loved him! He went above and beyond to make sure they were cared for and was very communicative during our trip. He is very good with animals and a trustworthy sitter. We would love to have him look after our cats again in the future.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 12! I love taking them on walks and car rides & playing with them at home. I have experience giving medication! I’m a teacher that is looking for part time work for the summer so I have open availability until August! I’m open to working on the weekend once the school year begins. I know how much a pet means to someone, as a cat owner and previous dog owner. Each pet has a different personality and temperament & understand building trust is key in developing a great relationship! I will follow your directions and will ensure your pet is safe in my care.

About: I grew up around animals. I love having pets and have taken care of a lot of them growing up. I have had dogs, cats, bunnies, hamsters, fishes, chicks and more. I love spending time with all pets! Pet care is something I do everyday. In the mornings, I take my dogs out for a walk and then another walk free I get back from work. I clean out my cat’s litter weekly and clean their food and waters bowls everyday. When it comes to taking care of your pet, I have full availability this summer! I can work mornings, do drop-ins and house sits if needed. I have a large backyard that can be used for playtime and a large crate if needed. I also have different types of toys and treats for both cats and dogs. I have spare leashes if needed, and of course quality time with your fur babies! When walking your pets, I’ll make sure of having everything they need such as their leash, collar, shoes, and a small water bowl for hot days. If they go to the park, I’ll bring their toys and play with them until it’s time to go.

“Thank you for taking such good care of Bodhi and showing him lots of love, Chelsea. We really appreciated all of the pictures you took and brushing his long hair. We highly recommend you and will rebook in future.”

About: I have lived with pets all my life and have over 6 years of professional experience in all kinds of animals (including but not limited to) birds, reptiles, and amphibians. I have 1 green cheek conure, 1 desert tortoise, 2 cats, and 1 dog myself. I can medicate your animals, but also help with training, exercise, grooming, and other enriching or basic husbandry care. I’ve recently moved to Woodland to help my sister with her kids, which leaves me some time for myself but not enough for a full time job. That’s where pet sitting comes in for me. Animal care is an important thing to me, and I love to know I’m helping your pet live their best life. Most pets will be comfortable in their own home so I can make house trips at least twice a day, perhaps more depending on where you are located respective to me. If you’d like me to take your little one into my own home, we can talk about it and go from there :)

About: I’ve been a dog owner since I was 8 and have experience taking care of puppies, senior dogs and multiple dogs at the same time. Since the start of the pandemic I started to take on more long term sitting seriously. my family has relied on me for pet sitting since I can remember and my friends know they can count on me. I take joy in providing care and affection for animals. I’m a homebody and taking care of your fur baby fits perfectly with my lifestyle. My partner is also with me and he loves to take active dogs with him on his jogs and workouts. We’re both huge animal lovers so we can always fit them into our routines. I live near a couple parks and I can accommodate to what your pet may need. If you have a homebody, or energetic dog I will always ensure they are having fun or chilling. You know your animal the best so please let me know anything I can do to ensure they have the best stay/play date.

About: I grew up with pets most of my life, and attended dog training classes with my mom starting at a young age. I have had my own pets the last 13 years (dogs, cat and bunny). I have trained and titled one of my dogs in AKC Rally and Waterworks ( something specific to my dogs breed), she is also a grand champion. I would be willing to help train puppies, even though I am not a certified trainer. I can also assist in training to loose leash walk, crate training, etc. Willing to do limited bathing and grooming for an additional fee, to be determined upon request, detailed request needed. I have been grooming my Portuguese water dogs most of my adult life, I have had to maintain a show quality coat. I'm not a professional groomer, but I know my way around clippers and scissors. I was recently laid off, so I have plenty of time to play with your pups. I am available pretty much anytime currently, weekdays and weekends. I treat all animals in my care as my own, with respect and love, whether they need a play buddy or just someone to cuddle, I try to give them what they need

About: I've taken care of my friends and families pets for 12 years now. I am very trustworthy and will take care of your pet and home as if they were my own! I believe all pets deserve the best care possible to live a happy healthy life. I work from home most days and I am available during the day to provide potty breaks and exercise for your pet. I am fully available in the early morning, evenings and weekends. I am not able to take in pets at my home but I have a reliable car and I can provide services in your home.

“Steven is a wonderful kitty sitter! He always communicated when he was on his way to come feed, water and play with both our cats. He ensured that they got a good amount of play with their favorite toys (strings on sticks of course) and even got our old man to play a little more than he normally does. When we got back home, the cats seemed relaxed and content with Stevens care also! No one seem frazzled and they loved him too. He always sent us fun photos of them eating and playing. We really appreciate his effort and commitment to care for our kitties! Thank you Steven! We hope to work with you again!”

About: I've grown up with all sorts of pets for as long as I can remember. Dogs, cats, birds, reptiles, fish. I have two cats of my own right now (two very spoiled babies). I'm typically free in the evenings Monday through Thursday and completely free on the weekends. But if needed for an emergency I can work from home Monday through Thursday to be there for your pet. I care for pets in the same way that I care for myself, with the upmost care. Dogs get walked at least twice a day, and plenty of love. Cats also get the same, and I have plenty of toys for both cats and dogs.

About: I have a Golden Retriever that is 6 years old and my cat who is 4 & mean the world to me. I’ve pet sat for friends and family throughout the years and enjoy spending time with them. I’ve gone through the puppy and kitten phase so I understand the chaos it entails. I’ve dealt with special food diets, reactive barking on walks, stranger anxiety etc. I have not had to give any meds other than regular flea & tick but I am more than willing to learn. I am a nursing student and am not queasy or new to the importance and safety it requires. I am more than happy to have day & overnight boarding in my home as long as they can get along well with others. I have a cat stroller & car seat as well if needed. I am a college student on summer break but have dog sat for family and friends in the past. I will try my best to accommodate to any special needs needed if required. I have a lot of patience & my dog (Rocky) is more than happy to keep a friend company. I love providing daily photos of pets to keep you updated. I’m currently at home for summer and often focus on the needs of my animals throughout the day. I do take my dog on daily walks when the pavement is not too hot. I can adjust to any routine necessary if clarified ahead of time. I do not keep my pets crated all day and allow them to free roam. I have a fenced in backyard and an energetic golden retriever to keep your pet company. I also have a separate bedroom for cats if needed. My cat also is very curious & loves other animals. I would prefer to know ahead of time if your pet gets along with cats to accommodate any needs and prevent accidents. Thank you!

About: Hi, I’m Christian. I’ve always loved being around dogs and know how important it is to have someone you can trust with your pet and your home. I’m dependable, easy to communicate with, and I’ll make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, care, and exercise while you’re away. My goal is to make the experience stress-free for both you and your pet by providing safe, loving, and reliable care every time. I have a flexible schedule and am available most days for pet care services. The only times I’m unavailable are Tuesdays and Thursdays from 11:00 AM to 3:00 PM due to school. Outside of that, I’m dependable, responsive, and happy to work around your pet’s routine. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. I understand how important trust is when leaving your pet in someone else’s care, and I take that responsibility seriously. I provide a calm, attentive, and dependable environment where pets can feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I also believe in clear communication, following your pet’s routine closely, and making sure you feel confident and updated while your pet is with me.

About: I’ve had a wide variety of animal care experience. I’ve worked in veterinary clinics, grooming salons, boarding facilities and animal shelters. I am qualified to administer medications (including injections), care for special needs and senior pets, as well as provide basic obedience training. I would love to provide your pet with some extra TLC in my free time and while you’re away! Please book promptly to ensure availability. I’ll care for your pets as if they were my own. I strive to provide the best care for all animals I work with and that includes your fur babies!

About: I treat my pets very well. I will treat yours just as well. From babies to seniors, all breeds and all types of dogs and cats. I am an active retiree who enjoys volunteering for Meals on Wheels twice a month and Woodland's Community Care Car once a month. There may be days I am busy for half a day, but it wouldn't interfere with overnight and drop in care. I prefer to care for the client's animals in their own home. I believe the pet is more secure and less anxious when in their own home. I can stay overnight, taking the pet outside or, depending on the pet type, to the dog park. I can also walk the pet, even if its a trained cat! I will also water plants, bring in the mail, put out refuse cans, pick up poop, clean litter boxes, etc.
