House Sitting El Macero

“Kelly is so awesome with our little grandpa pup. We never worry about him while he’s with Kelly. She’s also super helpful with little things around the house while we’re gone including taking out the trash on trash day while we’re away.”

“Nora is a phenomenal sitter for our dog and our cat. It makes my time away from them so much easier when I know that she is there taking care of them.”

“Audrey was incredibly communicative in specialized instructions for my anxious dog! She was very caring of all the pets, and I would absolutely recommend her for any pet sitting services.”

Andrew P.

“Mehma was fantastic! She took wonderful care of our dog and cat, along with our home while we were away. Really appreciated how responsive she was too, checking in with photos of our pets throughout the day. We’d be lucky to have Mehma pet sit for us again!!”

“Our old dog loved Jake. Jake is very friendly, dependable and took great care of our dog. Our dog needs meds and special care and Jake followed all the instructions perfectly. He also left the house very clean.”

About: We are excellent dog, cat, bird, poultry, reptile, and fish caretakers as we have raised most of these, and a few years ago, we had a thriving Rover business taking care of folks' animal babies. We can take care of medications if your pet needs: We have administered medicine to most of the animals on our list, including oral medication for a rooster and injections for a snake. We have had some experience in training our current dog as a service animal. While we have not had the chance to care for farm animals on our own, we love them and have had experience being around them (horses, sheep, goats, cows, pigs, alpaca). Animals, plants, gardens, farms, and home-care are all in our wheelhouse and are the foundations to our lives. If you are looking to have your fur baby stay with us, we have a large home with a fenced backyard. Our German Shepherd loves to play with other dogs, and we take him and our guests to local dog parks or fenced fields to play ball and or frisbee. We take care of our guests exactly how we want our pup to be taken care of! I work part time remotely and part time I will need to be in the field. What that means is a lot of the time, I will be in the home, hanging with your furry, feathered, or scaly baby, working on my laptop. During the times I need to work outside of the home, my 19 year old daughter (who has been doing Rover with me since she was 11) will give the best care in my place. I have a thriving Airbnb business in my home for over a decade, so I have a ton of experience and mindset on home-care: I treat other folks' pets and homes as well as I treat my own. I make it point to keep my clients connected via photos and updates. If I am providing boarding in my home, our 4 year old German Shepherd will love to play with your pup. If I am providing sitting in your home, then my pup will stay home unless requested for a playmate in your home.

“Carolina took great care of our pup while we were gone! She sent regular updates and photos throughout the weekend. Would definitely recommend her to others.”

“Suhani stayed in our home and cared for our two dogs while we traveled. She's friendly, professional, and great with dogs. She's clearly an experienced dog owner and I really appreciated her consistent check-ins. She took excellent care of our dogs and we won't hesitate to hire her again!”

I grew up with cats and have also cared for many different personalities! I love animals and am so happy to help look after yours! I have a lot of free time this summer so I’m very flexible with different schedules! I just have an internship on Wednesday’s in the afternoon. I have experience with many different animals and owners. So I’m open to different types of care just let me know your needs and I’m happy to accommodate them!!!

About: I have experience with pet sitting other animals including chickens, hamsters, and am a quick and adaptive learner!! Enjoyer of the outdoors and being out in the community. I work part time often early in the mornings and have a lot of time the rest of the day. My schedule does change from week to week but clear communication will always be maintained. I am extremely respectful of others’ homes and belongings. Depending on the service I will always confirm and set clear boundaries for both myself and the client.

“Liz's experience in the veterinary field made us feel safe leaving our senior dog for a week. Beyond that, Liz is very caring and kind and has the right tempermant for many pet personalities. She took excellent care of our sweet old dog and our slightly spicy kitty. I loved the updates and photos she sent throughout the week. We felt secure in leaving our pets in her care and thus could fully enjoy our trip!”

About: I've had multiple dogs all my life (all shelter rescues of all sizes and temperaments) and cared for them up into their senior years. From unique feeding routines to walks/runs in the early morning, to fetch, tug-of-war, midday potty breaks, and cuddles, I've done it all! I've also raised and fostered several litters of rescue kittens to be adopted, from bottlefeeding to litterbox training and handling practice. I am well learned in cleaning litterboxes, prepping midday snacks, and providing love and attention for kitties of all ages. I provide runs and walks for various dogs several days a week and house-sit on occasion during the summer. I also drop in to play with, feed, or entertain dogs whose families are away for long periods of time during the day. Because each pet is unique, I ensure clear communication of expectations from the pet's family prior to any walking or sitting. I always carefully monitor pets for signs of stress, discomfort, or injury and am prepared to take action in the event of emergencies. I maintain regular communication with pet families when they're out of town (send pictures and updates of their pets) and organize my weekly walking schedule frequently to ensure convenience for both me and the client. As someone with pets and a love for animals, I hold myself to a high standard to make sure every animal is comfortable and thriving with any walk, run, or visit.

About: When I was 9, I got my first dog, and that is how I started to be interested in being a vet and take care of dogs. I’m a UCD Animal Science student. My class schedule is not very busy other than Thursdays for this quarter, so I will be home most of the time other than that. I have 3 roommates (2 are also Animal Science students) who also loves animals and knows how to take care of them and have experiences with pets. There will usually be at least 1-2 person at home always. We have plenty of space for your pet to run around in the house, and a yard which we can be taking the dog out for potty breaks.

“Marissa was both professional and easy going, the perfect combination for a 2-week home stay with our cat and dog. I picked Marissa due to her experience in vet school since we have a senior dog. After our initial meet and greet, I knew she'd be a good fit. Marissa sent updates and photos but we also felt the freedom to focus on our trip knowing our pets were in good hands.”

About: Nothing makes me happier than meeting new dogs and cats! I always feel strong bonds towards new animals and I think I understand and respect animals boundaries well. I’ve taken care of many neighbors and friends animals and I always love doing it! I just moved home after completing my MSc in the UK! I would love to fill my schedule more by meeting and taking care of new dogs and cats! I am very patient with animals and I am easily flexible with needs of different breeds of either cats or dogs! I’m easy to contact and whatever is needed, I will accommodate to!

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover and proud dog mom to my 6 y/o pandemic pup. I grew up around dogs and have spent years helping care for family dogs. As a dog mom myself, I understand how much our pets mean to us and how important it is to have someone trustworthy caring for them. I know firsthand that sometimes it takes a village, and I love being able to help fellow pet parents feel confident that their dogs are safe, happy, and loved while they're cared for! I’m currently a PhD student studying for my qualifying exams, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to spend a lot of time at home. As a dog mom myself, daily walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and making sure pets feel comfortable are already part of my everyday life. I’m able to plan my work around pet care needs and can provide attentive, consistent care throughout the week. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I try to keep their routine as consistent and comfortable as possible. I know being away from their owners can be stressful for some pets, so I make sure they get plenty of attention, care, playtime, walks, and patience while also respecting their individual personalities and boundaries. I understand how important trust and communication are, and I aim to make both pets and pet parents feel comfortable. I’ve always had a good rapport with dogs and know how to work with different energy levels, sizes, temperaments, and comfort needs.

“Danni went above and beyond in taking care of my puppy during our first weekend trip away. I truly was able to relax knowing she was in good hands, as Danni is both experienced with dogs and very nurturing. I also really appreciated how she agreed to sit on such short notice, even July 4th nonetheless. She even generously cleaned up a few things at my home. I definitely recommend Danni and will continue to stay in touch!”

About: I have over 3 years of experience caring for both dogs and cats, including my own two cats and helping care for a high-energy Labrador Retriever. Whether it's dog walking, drop-in visits, or pet sitting, I'll make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, meals, fresh water, and lots of love. I'm happy to follow your pet's routine and provide photo updates so you can have peace of mind while you're away. I have a flexible schedule, so I can spend quality time with your pets and give them the care they deserve. I look forward to meeting you and your furry friend! I recently graduated, so I currently have a flexible schedule and plenty of availability to provide attentive, reliable care for your pets. I'm available on weekdays, weekends, and for overnight stays, and I'll do my best to accommodate last-minute requests whenever possible. I take my dog on long walks and throw the ball around in our backyard because she has a lot of energy and I want to give her a lot of exercise. Our cats are very demanding on their feeding schedule, so I make sure I am on top of that.

“Rachel was very responsive, easy to work with, and great with our cats. She sent lots of pictures and videos so we were confident they were alright and in good hands. Would definitely recommend.”
