House Sitting El Monte

“Jacqueline is a little shy in person but she communicated very well on text - she kept me updated daily how each of our pet were doing and sent lots of cute pictures of them! :) She also spent time playing with each pet, and they seemed very happy in the pictures. My cat is usually shy and would hide if a stranger is here but she warmed up pretty quickly to Jacqueline. Our place was also kept clean during her Stay too. Will rebook again!”

So I have plenty of times to take care of your pets like mine! Let me be your pet’s best friend! I have a fenced house and have 2 cats in the house.

About: I have 20 years of experience in dog care and can take house and yard and can also walk the dog on time. I’ve been raising dogs for a while now. It’s a joyful experience filled with playful moments and challenges. Every day, I learn something new about their behavior and needs. They bring so much happiness and companionship into my life. It’s amazing how much love and loyalty they show. 1. Feeding: • Once or twice a day depending on the animal and vet recommendations. 2. Fresh Water: • Change water at least once daily. 3. Exercise/Playtime: • Dogs need walks (15–30minutes depending on breed). 4. Grooming (as needed): • Brushing, checking for ticks/fleas, especially for long-haired animals. 5. Clean-ups: • Scoop litter boxes, clean up after walks, or spot-clean cages. Routine Care Includes: • Feeding and Watering: According to the pet’s normal schedule. • Exercise & Play: Walks for dogs, play sessions for cats or small animals. • Medication Administration: If required — pills, drops, or injections (if trained). • Litter Box or Yard Clean-Up: Scooping, changing litter, picking up after walks. • Home Care: Bringing in mail, watering plants, light tidying up, alternating lights or blinds to make the home look lived in.

“Celest is a true professional. We hired her to dog/cat/house sit and she was wonderful. She was attentive to our senior dogs needs and not afraid to ask questions so they received the best possible care. She sent us daily updates and sent cute photos of the pets enjoying their time with her. We will definitely hire Celest again without hesitation and you should hire her too.”

About: I have loved animals ever since I was a kid! From cats and dogs to even reptiles and birds, I love them all. I would be honored to care for your furry loved ones! I am currently a student with a very flexible schedule. I would be more than happy to accommodate the needs of you and your babies! In my client’s home, I am very detail oriented and respectful of any rules and guidelines. I take pet care very seriously, and I make sure to keep in touch.

About: I've taken care of all kinds of dogs, big and small, young and old. I have a lot of energy for playful pups, along with patience for grey-faced older ones. I've changed diapers and administered medicine in various vessels (food, treats, orally). I'm happy to go on walks and to give cuddles! If you have a kitty, my love is just as strong, but I know when to give them their space if wanted or needed! I'm a newly graduated UCSB alumni so I have plenty of time to take care of pets, which is honestly how I love to spend my time anyway. I prefer to spend as much time as possible with my clients' pets for the duration of my stay. I don't tend to leave for more than an hour or two to get food or run some quick errands. I am vigilant and attentive, especially in regards to any allergies such as bees.

About: I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, and overnight house sitting, with care tailored to each pet’s routine and needs. I’ve grown up surrounded by dogs and have always loved caring for them. My family has had many rescue pups over the years, giving me experience with different breeds, sizes, personalities, and energy levels—from Shih Tzus to German Shepherds and Rottweilers. I’ve also become the go-to person for family, friends, and neighbors when they need someone they trust to care for their dogs. I’m comfortable with walks, feeding, playtime, potty breaks, and following each dog’s routine while their owners are away. I truly enjoy getting to know each dog and creating a positive experience that makes them feel cared for. I work part-time remotely from home in the mornings, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. I’m able to provide walks, potty breaks, playtime, and companionship throughout the day, making pet care a natural part of my routine. My availability allows me to be present and dependable while your pet is in my care. Your pet’s safety and well-being are my top priorities. Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home, I’ll provide a calm and caring environment while following your instructions, routines, and any special needs. Pets will never be left unattended and will always have access to fresh water. I’ll also share regular updates and photos so you can stay connected and feel confident knowing your furry family member is being cared for while you’re away.

“This was our initial contact with Loretta. Last minute, very old dog, and a holiday week. special needs and overnights. That all seems like a tough nut to crack. Loretta did just that with maturity and professionalism. We will be asking for her services going forward.”

“Justin provided an excellent service! He connected with my dog Cometa and ensure he was exercised, fed, safe, and well cared! Cometa was relaxed and happy! I found him calm and secured at my arrival! I will continue having Justin taking care of my dog as many times as my dog needs service! Justin is dependable, responsible, nurturing and committed to provide de best service possible. I’m very grateful and happy with his service. Gracias, gracias, gracias….”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 20 years and have experience with puppies, adult dogs, and seniors. As a dog owner myself, I understand how important it is to keep pets safe, comfortable, and on their normal routine. I’m comfortable with walks, feeding, playtime, administering medications, cleaning up after pets, and providing lots of love and attention. I believe every pet deserves patience, kindness, and individualized care, and I’ll treat your furry family member as if they were my own. My schedule is flexible, allowing me to provide walks, drop-in visits, daycare, and overnight care throughout the week, including weekends. I take the time to follow each pet’s routine, provide plenty of exercise, play, affection, and send regular photo updates so you can feel confident your pet is happy and well cared for. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s personality, feeding schedule, medications, and exercise needs before every visit. As a longtime dog owner, I understand how important trust and communication are, so I’ll provide regular updates and photos while you’re away. I treat every home with respect and every pet as if they were my own, ensuring they receive patient, attentive, and loving care. I know how important it is to find someone dependable, attentive, and compassionate, and that’s exactly the kind of care I strive to provide for every pet I meet.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was a kid – we always had family animals, and I grew up feeding, walking, and bathing them. I had a Golden Retriever and a 6 years old cat so I’m used to high‑energy pups and know how to keep them happy, safe, and well‑exercised. You’ll get daily photo updates, so you can relax while you’re away. I can easily fit in walks or drop‑in visits anytime during the day, evening, or weekends. I’m available Monday through Friday from morning to night, and fully open on Saturdays and Sundays. If your pets needs extra attention (e.g., after surgery or just separation anxiety), I can even be home full‑time for a day – just let me know in advance. When I care for your pets in your home, I always start with a safety check – making sure doors, windows, and gates are secure, and removing any hazards like toxic plants or small objects. I’ll follow your feeding and guidelines precisely, and I always ask about things to look for ahead of time. You’ll get daily photo updates and a quick message after each visit – so you can relax knowing your pet is safe and happy.

“Michelle was great!! My pups were so well taken care of and I can tell they were so happy! Would recommend and will be definitely booking again :)”

About: Your dog’s home-away-from-home—where they feel safe and loved. I offer small-scale boarding (not a kennel). This is a great option for pet parents seeking a safer alternative to kennels. Training-informed, positive-reinforcement environment. Deep experience with rescue, reactive, separation anxiety and other special-needs dogs who require a calm home environment. Home atmosphere + constant human presence. My home is quiet with a front yard that feels like you're in a small forest. Good vibes all around. I'm truly an all-around dog lover, and I and have a passion for saving, fostering, and boarding if it means a happier life for a dog and his/her human. I've had a passion for caring for dogs since I was a teenager. I've rescued several dogs from a high-kill shelter and fostered them until we found a forever home. I currently work closely with a couple of dog rescues that help find fosters or adopters for high-energy dogs in overcrowded shelters, once they've gone through an evaluation stage and the necessary training. I have dog training knowledge, and I'm also trained in dog psychology. My goal is to work with service dogs and get them ready for their new human. I have experience working with extra large breeds as well as the cute, tiny ones. I also have experience with special need dogs who require medication, If you have a special needs dog, I have experience in: Oral medication administration Injected medication administration Senior dog experience Special needs dog experience I currently work part time from my home office and tend to my plants which allows me plenty of time to devote to your furry family member. I enjoy time at home, painting, reading, cooking, gardening, playing my congas or simply relaxing in front of the television.  I enjoy caring for pets as if they were my own, which means getting to know their personalities and what they like to do for fun. I have grassy areas to play and lounge out in the sun. A possible daily routine: A morning walk or let them roam the yard (depends on the owners choice), followed by breakfast and some loving. Afternoon time consists of potty breaks and some play time in the yard or indoors and some afternoon treats for everyone before they nap. I have plenty of room for your pet to run around or just lounge. I don't have any pets (as I have been fostering) or children, and there's very little to nothing that your pet could get into. My house is secured and all the windowns and doors will remain secured while your pet is visiting. My yard has a five and a half foot fence and it's secured all the way around. I have grassy areas to play and lounge out in the sun. If I'm pet sitting at your location, I will follow the list of do's and don't and will always treat your home with respect.
