“Amanda and Josh are amazing. I would give them 10 stars if I could. This is the first time we have used a service like this, so we we’re just a bit apprehensive. But our 5 kitties (2 outdoor, 2 indoor, and 1 in & out) were extremely well taken care of, and they went above and beyond when it came to taking care of our persnickety teenager. She did not want to come in at night cuz she was unsure of these new folks. But Amanda took the time and effort to bond with her while we were gone. It took several days of sitting with her in the backyard, hand feeding her with gradual petting sessions, but she was finally able to get Midge inside using soft spoken words and a kind touch. I would recommend them to anyone looking for an understanding and caring sitter! Can't say enough good things about them. Thanks Amanda and Josh Sooo much.”


“Kate was awesome! Kate house sat for us and took care of our two cats. We came home to happy, healthy pets and a house that was exactly how we left it. We also received daily photos and notes from Kate which put our mind at ease while traveling. Thank you, Kate!”

About: I’ve walked, pet-sat, and played with dogs every since I can remember. I’ve done it all for friends, family, neighbors, and anyone who needed it. I am very experienced and I love what I do!! I currently work part-time so I have lots of time to give to your pets. I’m available almost every day at certain times. I’m positive I will be the best person to take care of your pets!! I have a fenced backyard, which is very spacious, as well as two dogs of my own that can provide company to your pets if need be!

“Amelia took care of my cat very well. My cat doesn’t warm up easily to very many people so I was pleasantly surprised that she let Amelia pet her! Clearly she felt very comfortable with her and I’m very happy with the care she received.”


“I can't thank Adrianna V. enough for the exceptional care she gave to my giant German Shepherd. She’s not the easiest dog to handle—she's both antisocial and can be aggressive at times—but [Dog Walker Adrianna V. handled her with such patience, love, and professionalism. She took the time to understand her needs and helped her feel comfortable, even on her more difficult days. It's rare to find someone who can manage such a large, strong dog with kindness while still maintaining control. She truly went above and beyond, and I feel so much better knowing my dog is in good hands with her. If you're looking for someone who can handle a big, challenging dog, look no further. Highly recommended!”


“Alexis took amazing care of my kitty while I was gone! I was constantly updated and she made sure to always go the extra mile in making sure she was doing good! Thank you so much”


About: From tiny chihuahuas to great pyrenees mixes, puppies to seniors, I’ve cared for dogs across all sizes, ages, and temperaments. Some need playtime and belly rubs, others need special diets or a gentle routine. I’ve worked with both healthy dogs and those with mild medical needs, and I always adapt to meet their individual pace and comfort. My experience with pets spans years through volunteering, helping friends and family, and raising my own sweet girl Opal, who has since passed. Since then, caring for other people’s pets (and fostering a few) has become a way to keep that love present in my life. I work a regular 8–5 job, but I’m available most weekends and can often make weekday visits work with a little notice. Whether your dog needs a walk, company, or a cozy overnight sitter, I’ll show up with kindness, patience, and care. Availability • Weekends: Fully available • Weekdays: 4am- 7am and 6pm-10pm If alternative hours are needed, please feel free to share and I will do my best to adjust! I create a safe, loving, and comfortable environment tailored to their needs. I ensure they have plenty of playtime, cuddles, and attention while maintaining a consistent routine for feeding, potty breaks, and exercise.

About: I’ve taken care of animals for 17 years. I own an Australian Shepherd and go on daily walks and play outside multiple times a day. Your pet would be treated with love and care like they were mine. I’m available 24/7 to care for your pet. I make my own schedule for work so I am always available for when you need care. I accept last minute bookings. I have a dog your pet can be friends with, I have a dog crate if needed and pets are allowed to sleep in bed with me

“Hannah did a great job taking care of our cats while we were away. She was friendly, responsive, and dependable, and clearly attentive to their needs. We truly appreciated her reliability and care, and we’d gladly hire her again in the future.”


About: Ive been watching dogs for several years now. I enjoy helping others and making things convenient when it comes to watching their furry loved ones. It feels like the least someone can do. I do work full time, 3 days a week 12 hrs shifts in a hospital so I do have several days off. If you work with me, I'll work with you (: I have experience with numerous breeds of dogs. Big dogs, smaller dogs, active puppies. Teach me their routine and any good-to-know tricks and they'll have my best interest.


About: Personable attention, plenty of exercise and play is the mantra. During my overnight stay, I provide 2 walks/day (30 min each) and 30 min of play. Potty as needed. Close bonding with Baggins, my Blue Healer, for 12 years has taught me a skill set of commen sense with dogs. I have 2 other dogs I care for part time with my husband. Baggins will be with myother dogs during my visits with yours. I go to the gym for an hour most every day. You must be ok with me leaving your Precious alone for 2 hours. I have obtained security clearance on the federal level with my former government positions. I am also part time Airbnb host for my yurt. I am available weekdays and weekends. Although your active dog will miss you, he or she will soon forget after our walks.

“Hattie is amazing! Affectionate with my cats, patient, great communication, and goes the extra mile. I highly recommend her and will hire her again! She took care of my pets for a week and they loved her! Thanks for everything!!🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽”

About: From the time I was brought home from the hospital to mom life at 30, I’ve always had a dog by my side. Pets are like children and I care for them in just that way. We’ve adopted everything from abandoned puppies with no training, to senior dogs. Friends have relied on me to house sit their pups while away during the hot summer months, and have experience fostering kittens, dogs on medication and puppies going through potty training. I’m currently a stay at home mom. Two girls👧🏽👶🏽 and two boys🐶🐶. I’m rarely out of the house and have lots of time to play. We take walks daily, but also love our time on the couch, and would easily welcome another to snuggle with! My fur babies are great companions to both humans and other dogs so they’ll have a friend here if yours needs one. If there is ever any need for separation our yard is fenced and has a dividing gate down the middle. The main living space in our home can also be divided/closed off by Dutch doors which keeps the dogs from wondering, and allows me to keep them in close proximity to me. If keeping our boys separated from your fur babies makes you more comfortable we have a detached studio/garage we would be happy to utilize to keep ours in. If I am needed at your home, where your pet is most comfortable, I can easily be there to care for them. I also understand the importance of making sure everything is how you left it and that pets are secured inside when leaving. Knowing your babies are in loving hands is important. Let my family and I be their comfort blanket while away!

“Hannah spent 10 days at our home caring for our two cats. She was easy to coordinate with and communicated with us promptly, both before and during our trip. It was nice to receive pictures of our fur babies while we were away and know that they had company and were doing well. We returned to a tidy home and two happy cats. We would not hesitate to recommend Hannah to others or to use her services again.”


About: I’ve never been a day without owning all sorts of animals. From rabbits, birds, cats, dogs, poultry and horses, I love them all! I would love to be there for your pets while you are away. I’m a retired school bus driver for Clovis Unified so my availability is very open. Wether it’s morning or evening feedings, or afternoon visits, I can be there! Having many pets myself, I know the importance of keeping your pets safe and keeping gates closed! You won’t have to worry about them while you’re gone. I can send pictures of your pets to you to keep you comfortable!

This undoubtedly bloomed my love for animals. Since then I have took in countless rescue animals, nursed them back to health, and found them forever homes. My love for animals really continues to grow and grow. I currently have 2 pets of my own. A 3 year old English Cocker Spaniel named Archie and a 4 month old kitten named Loki, and yes they are besties.

I am able to assist with bathing, walks, feeding, training, and much more. I do have experience in the medical field and I am aware of different signs or symptoms. I have dog sat for many of my friends and family, it would be a absolutely joy to help you with your fur baby! I am currently not working and my schedule is very open.

“Avery has been my dog walker for about 6 months now and I have been nothing less than satisfied with my experience with her. She's very punctual and is always on time or early to pick up our pup. Shes very nice and seems to have a great relationship with all dogs. Our dog loves when she comes and picks her up. She's also very communicative and makes sure to call ahead of time to inform us about any change of plans she has. I would definitely recommend Avery to anybody looking for a dog walker or even a dog sitter!”
