House Sitting in East Bakersfield, Bakersfield, CA

“If this had an option for a TEN star rating, Joshua would get it! Seriously, Hubby and I had to go out of town for 2 days and we have 2 German Shepherds. They are my service dogs. I stress out every time we have to go out of town (hubby is a performer so it's monthly). This is the FIRST time I did NOT have anxiety about my doggies while out of town! Joshua is true to his word when he says he gives doggy owners "Peace of mind". During meet & greet my babies LOVED him. He sent us updates, videos and checked in often. He also went above and beyond, cleaned the dishes I left in the sink (we were in a panic getting ready for a big show -I forgot to do them), brought in the mail, took the trash can out and back in, let the gardeners in. We were running late coming home but he stayed. Joshua also left the sweetest note for us. It included a daily check list he made to ensure our doggies Angel and Bear had the best care and he made sure Angel took her pills. Thank you Joshua! Ronnie and I just love you, oh as you know so do our babies. Tammy”

“Angel is amazing! She is kind, a great communicator, and reliable. Our dog had a little bit of an upset tummy from seperation anxiety when we left and Angel cared and looked out for her. We were out of state and it was really nice knowing we had someone trusted to care for her while we were away. Highly recommend Angel!”

“Kayla was perfect. She was respectful of our home and very loving and caring towards our pets. I received daily pictures with updates and came home to a clean house. Will recommend her to friends and family!”

“Sidney was a HUGE help. We needed a house sitter last minute and she responded quickly and was willing to do a meet and greet in advance for our peace of mind. We were out of state so it was very important we had updates and communication. Sidney went above and beyond to provide photos, videos and constant reassurance of how things were going. She respected our house rules and asked for permission before anything. We appreciated her greatly and are now rebooking her moving forward🤗”

“Left my 4 month puppy overnight, she was awesome and kept me posted and sent me pictures.. definitely will hire Crystal again.. thank you Crystal!”

“Samantha did a wonderful job looking after our 3 pets while we were away for the week. I received regular pictures and updates on our pets, and our home was clean and tidy when we returned. I highly recommend her for any pet related services!”

“Eric has been a great friend of mine since high school. Whenever I’m out of town or very busy, I always ask him to stay the night at my apartment and take care of my husky. He shows initiative and is also reliable. I would recommend him.”

“We had a great experience with Monica and she took good care of our dogs. It was comforting to be on vacation knowing they are in good hands. She sent us daily videos and photos which we appreciated so much. Monica is awesome and I would highly recommend her!”

“Rafa is very responsible and loves taking care of animals. He's watched my dogs while I was away plenty of times. He gives them lots of attention such as cuddles, engaging with them, taking them for walks, etc. He is very patient and such an animal lover.”

About: Long time animal lover and pet owner, devoted to helping our furry friends live their best life. Current dog mom of two, I've been caring for mine and other people's pets for years. I started from dropping in to check on neighbors dogs and cats in my teens to caring for the pets of families I provided childcare to in adulthood. I'm happy to walk, feed, play with, reinforce training, bathe, and clean up after any pet. I am currently working part-time, so my schedule is fairly flexible. I'm very available during weekdays up until 7pm, and for drop-ins on the weekend. If needed, I have a fully fenced in yard and both a small dog crate and a large one. Being a dog mom myself, I would only be able to house other pets if mine are with their dad or if ours jive well together. When visiting pets in their own home, I play with/give attention to the pet upon arrival, complete any tasks given to me by their owner, and shower the pet with as much love as they want while I'm there.

“Jade was great and very responsive. She sent several pictures of my pups and gave them a lot of attention and pup cups! I would definitely recommend her to others!”

About: I’ve had multiple types of animals from the moment I was born, and been a die hard animal lover ever since. I am a certified veterinary assistant and I currently work at a pet resort, so I’m experienced and knowledgeable in how to take care of all your pets needs! I currently have two cats, a 14 year old female who’s my cranky old lady and a 3 year old male who’s super rambunctious! I also have two German shepherds, so I can very easily handle large breed dogs. I can gladly walk, care for, and play with all your fur babies! Every animal I come across gets the same love and attention I’d give my own babies. Being in the veterinary medicine field I have plenty of hands on experience when it comes to caring for and handling all types of animals and all their specials needs. I am able to give oral and injectable medications no problem, follow any specific diet regimes, as well as handle any food aggressive dog with ease. I do work at a pet resort currently, but my schedule is still pretty flexible. That being said, I prefer to take dog clients that are okay being alone for 4-8 hours as my work schedule will usually have me gone anywhere 4-8 hours at a time. I do not drive currently but still easily get around and always arrive anywhere I need to be promptly and on time. If you live outside of my service radius I reserve the right to charge an extra fee (up to $50) for transportation to your home. Thank you for your understanding! My shepherds are indoor/outdoor, they are crate trained, house broken, and get lots of play time and exercise in the form of walks and outside games of fetch. My cats are indoor only, litterbox trained, and get lots of love and playtime. All the animals also get spoiled with treats and tons of attention! I’d treat your animals the same I would my own, make sure they’re happy and healthy and taken care of. Being trained in the veterinary medicine field, I can also safely take care of any special medical needs or restrictions your fur babies may have as well.

“Matthew is a wonderful dog caregiver. He stayed at my house and is very trustworthy and responsible. I will always use his services for my dogs Hank and Jackson. He took excellent care of them and of my house as well. Thanks to Matthew for a job well done. I highly recommend his services. He gets a five star review from me. Lynette”

About: I had pets all my life! My life just doesn't feel complete without them. Currently taking care of my Senior dog and newly adopted puppy! My schedule is open. I am very flexible. I understand that last minute changes and emergencies happen, and I am open to making myself available for you on short notice if needed. I have no problem accommodating your fury friend's needs, whether that would be taking a walk, administering medication, feeding, and/or just keeping them company. I'm here for them!

“I felt comfortable with Zena taking care of my fur babies. She did give me an update and a photo of my fur baby and also told me when she left the house and for how long. She is very responsible and came on time. I definately will book again with her. Thanks”
