Pet Sitting El Miradero

“I couldn’t ask for a better cat sitter than Mindy! She went over and beyond taking care of my cat while I was away. I booked relatively last minute and had a few late adjustments to my travel plans but Mindy was very understanding and flexible. She provided plenty of updates during her visits and I could tell she genuinely cared about my cat’s well-being. I had a great experience with Mindy and would absolutely recommend her to others!”

“Rebecca is absolutely amazing! She goes above and beyond and is always on time. She is so patient and kind with my two schnauzers (~17lbs and ~47lbs). I have a very hard time trusting anyone with my dogs but Rebecca made me feel so much at ease and I trust her completely. I am so thankful for Rebecca and have nothing but amazing things to say about her!”

About: All dogs have different personalities and I enjoy getting to know each one. I’ve been trusted to dogsit for friends and family over the years and for our time together I definitely treat them as if they’re my own. My time is flexible and I’m available most days of the week. I have a part-time job that has a varied schedule but I’m always open to communicate time slots that could work for both our schedules. I do my best to keep a keen eye on the whereabouts and curiosities the pet may get into. I make sure that I stay on track for any dietary conditions that are provided and if approved, give treats when necessary.

“Madeline was awesome, very polite & outgoing. I knew she was perfect for our doggies, will definitely reach out the next time we need help! Thanks again, Madeline!”

“Jacquie was wonderful!! Very communicative, and such a big help. My cat immediately was comfortable with her and it seemed like they had a good time together! Will be rebooking and highly recommend her with any furry friend.”

About: Hello, my name is Jacinta & I have loved animals my entire life. Yes, I know, everyone says that, but my dads favorite story to tell anyone willing to listen is that when I was about 4/5 years old, I would constantly bug him and ask if we could get a dog. So to get me to stop asking, he told me sure, we could get a dog when I turn 10. Sure enough, when I turned 10, the first thing I asked was where my dog was. Shocked I still remembered he quickly came up with something else to distract me😅 We finally got our first family dog when I was a freshman in high school, then another when I was a sophomore. A spunky little chihuahua terrier, and a loving husky malamute mix. Later on my sister got a dog of her own, an incredibly smart red heeler who I babysat whenever possible. So I am extremely well versed in dogs big, small, and medium! My very first part time job was working at Petsmart in the doggie day care where I spent all day taking care of dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments. Throughout college I would watch my roommates maltipoo while she went home for breaks. I would house/dog sit my friends pit-bull mix over the weekends whenever he was out of town. My senior year in college I even fostered a friend’s cat for almost a year! I am the first call when someone in my family is looking for someone to dog sit. I still occasionally house sit my cousins two American Eskimos or take them on walks whenever needed. My fiancé and I just got engaged and we are trying to save up some money for all the incoming expenses so what better way than to spend it with the things I love most! (Second to him😅) I work full time but am available week days after 4pm and most weekends! I am open to house sitting, drop ins, walks, or any of your babies needs! I would love to come play with your pets or come say hi, so please don’t hesitate to reach out! I am open to any and all suggestions and requests for care! I work full time but am available week days after 4pm and most weekends! I am open to house sitting, drop ins, walks, or any of your babies needs! I’ve had ample experience house sitting pets and will treat your home as if it were my own. My main objective is to make sure your fur baby feels safe and comfortable.

“Great sitter”

“Shay takes the best care of my 2 cats! She sends detailed updates and makes sure all are happy and healthy. Also leaves the place tidy which is greatly appreciate. A very kind & trustworthy sitter!”

About: I’ve had a love for animals for as long as I can remember. As a little kid, I would spend hours at my aunt’s house playing with her dogs — my mom would even have to come call me so I’d finally go home! Growing up, I had many different types of pets, but the one thing I always dreamed of having was a dog of my own. I begged my parents for years, and when I finally got my first dog at 13 years old, he instantly became my whole world. From a very young age, I was always the person friends and family trusted with their pets. I watched a friend’s cat while they were away and even cared for my school’s bunny for an entire day! Later on, when I moved to Sydney, Australia, I volunteered at an animal rescue center and spent the next 10 years pet sitting for both dogs and cats — something I truly loved and felt very passionate about. I have experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, from energetic puppies and kittens to sweet senior dogs who need extra patience and attention. I recently lost my own beloved senior dog, so I deeply understand the gentle, specialized care, and massive amount of love older pets need in their golden years. Because of this, I’m incredibly comfortable monitoring their comfort, administering medication, and making sure they feel entirely safe and relaxed while you are away. Caring for animals has always come naturally to me, and I treat every pet with the same love, patience, and attention I would give my own. <3 Since I’m currently home full-time, I have a super flexible schedule with plenty of open availability Monday through Sunday, so I can easily fit into your pet's regular daily routine without a problem. Whether you need a consistent daily walker while you're at work, or last-minute drop-in visits because something popped up, I’m around and ready to step in whenever you need an extra hand." In Your Home: When I come by for drop-ins or to pick up your dog, I treat your home with total respect. I always make sure doors are securely locked, keys are safely stored, and your home is exactly how you left it. Plus, I love giving cats and dogs lots of love, refreshing their water, and making sure they are comfy before I leave. Out on Walks: Safety is everything when we are out on an adventure. I always keep dogs securely on-leash, stay highly aware of our surroundings, and steer clear of any unpredictable situations or unfamiliar dogs. Keeping You Posted: I know how hard it is to be away, so I always send a quick update and some cute photos during or right after my visit. You'll never have to wonder how they are doing!

About: I’ve always had pets of my own and have been caring for animals for family, friends, and neighbors for as long as I can remember. I’m experienced with kittens, adult pets, and senior or medically complex animals, including providing around-the-clock hospice care for my own beloved cat after his ataxia diagnosis. I currently share my home with Leon, my one-year-old cat, and Chicken, my 26+ year-old African Grey parrot—both rescues (Chicken was found abandoned and taken in) and very loved. I love caring for pets—cats, dogs, and birds of all types and sizes—and I’m happy to welcome other small animals too, just let me know! I treat every pet with patience, attention, and affection, and I’m happy to provide updates and photos for peace of mind. I work from home and my schedule is flexible. My goal is always to schedule any services based on the needs of you and your pet(s). I will always follow any instructions on how you prefer your pet to be cared for. Otherwise, I will always care for them in the safest and healthiest way available. The same way I care for my own pets. Leon is an indoor kitty with unlimited access to fresh air and sunshine from his lounging cots attached to our large windows. He loves his wet food, and his meals are on a “flexible” schedule, and no all day grazing. He receives lots of playtime with his humans and more independently. Of course, he gets brushed, not always with a happy purr, but he gets as much as he will tolerate.

“Grateful Corey was available for a last minute pop-in when we both had to work late. He's reliable, and mostly importantly, the dogs love him.”

“Always professional and very communicative, love Tracy and her care for my pup!”

About: We have raised 7 dogs, 2 cats, 3 tortoises, a rabbit, a chicken, a duck, a hamster, and many fish. We are familiar with all shapes, sizes, and personalies of animals and we are both very patient and friendly with them. We both work remotely most of the time, and have flexible schedules that can accomodate your needs. We are also accessible every day of the week if an emergency pops up. We are raising two noisy kitties who are not great with strangers, so while we can't have your pets in our house, we'd love to help you out with yours.

“Katharine has been a great Rover w my dog. She got her to eat even tho my dog is very picky to eat when we are not home so that to me means a lot and tells me my dog felt safe and secure with her in their visits. I will definitely book her again.”

About: My genuine love for animals coupled with my high level of responsibility and strong common sense makes me not only a compassionate pet care professional, by also a reliable one. I will treat your pet like my own and bend over backwards to make sure that they are safe and well-loved in my care. I also have several years of professional pet care experience that has equipped me with the knowledge neccessary to interpret animal behavior and care for them properly. I provide pet sitting and dog walking services through other companies as well, so my schedule varies a bit from day to day. Please reach out to confirm a time with me. I am very detail-oriented and follow instructions well. When walking, I am aware of my surroundings at all times and make sure to keep a safe distance from other dogs and/or unsafe situations. When dropping in for a visit, I am privvy to any potential hazards for pets and make sure to close cabinets/doors/etc. that could invite mischief.

About: From working at the animal shelter, to returning a lost dog home, I love helping creatures big and small. I’ve always had the drive to make the lives, of people and animals alike, better through offering my time, knowledge, experience and a helping hand. In the summer of 2024 I had the opportunity to work alongside trained professionals at the animal shelter and witness the consideration and care that goes into animal care-taking. I was able to also work with smaller kittens, bunnies, alongside dogs from an assortment of sizes and breeds. From 2018-2023 my grandmother lived with my family; we were the caregivers. Especially during covid, I stepped up to help with more responsibilities concerning my grandmother. I learned so much patience and also so much about what a blessing it is to have the ability to care for others. I so deeply appreciate the opportunities I have to share a little bit of life with creatures of every kind:) I currently have no job, however I am applying for part-time positions. Along with that I do pursue performing arts so I set aside time for that accordingly. Having 4 dogs and a cat at home only supports my motivation to care for more animals. I have a lot of availability through the summer and possibly the fall. Weekly it varies but I will communicate any and all time changes. I have 4 dogs that are all friendly, and I’d keep them separate from any of your fur-babies just to ensure a smooth time. Our cat has yet to interact with another cat, but she seldom approaches the dogs. We are well equipped with dry food and doggie supplies. If any dietary restrictions are necessary I will adhere. When in the house of a client, I always ask lots of questions and make a shared notes tab. I will also make a group chat if desired by the client. I tend to tidy up the environment given, and if there are desires to keep things completely unchanged I have no problem with that.

“Thanks for watching my kitties and caring for my fish tank!”

“Bertha did an amazing job taking care of my puppy, Ammi! She was reliable, kind, and kept me updated with photos and messages. Ammi looked so happy and well cared for when I got back. I highly recommend her and would definitely book again!”

Priscilla U.

“Krista was great with my 7-month old kitten. Even though Ember likes to hide, I felt better knowing that she would hear a warm human voice while I was gone, and that someone would be by in case she got into trouble. Krista would try to find her and hang out for a while just so Ember could feel her presence. Krista even took in my mail and checked in on my pet shrimp without being asked! I would not hesitate to have Krista over again if needed. Made for a worry-free time away!”

About: Expect a happy pet on your return. :) I have plenty of energy to play with your dog or cat. Get your pup the fresh air and exercise it deserves! Get your cat the attention they deserve. I have been pet-sitting for the past 6 years, mostly taking care of a shitzu and a pug, and recently, I have been gradually training a corgi to stop leash pulling. It has been very rewarding watching his behavior improve in and out of the house. I'm available weekdays, weekends, holidays, and odd hours and can spend all day with your pet or take it for frequent bathroom breaks if need be. I freelance and work part time so I have lots of availability for providing pet care to your dog or cat when given at least a few days notice. I will make sure your indoor only pets stay that way by being careful with entrances, and always leash or harness dogs before going for out for bathroom walks outside.
