About: I was raised on a hobby farm, so I have all sorts of experience with animals/pets! I used to have dogs of my own and I now love taking care of others dogs! I am new to Yuba, CA, and currently have an open schedule! I love being able to get outside and go on long walks any time of the day. When taking care of others dogs, I like to use all of the same commands and rules as the dog parent. I am guilty of giving extra treats, but will always focus on what’s best for the pup.

About: I've had the pleasure of loving and taking care of furbabies of all sizes for 20 years. I first started pet sitting for an acquaintance in 2005. Later, when I became established in the area as a trusted house cleaner, I started pet sitting for some of my clients and their friends. Sadly, I lost all my clients and contacts save one in the Camp Fire as my client base was in Paradise and Magalia. Since then, I have taken care of my own little furbabies and ever so often cared for the Chihuahua/Pug/Terrier mix of the one remaining client from Paradise. Within the years that I was actively pet sitting, I took care of dogs of all sizes from Chihuahuas to Whippets. I am excited to once again assist you with your pet sitting needs and ensure the best attention is given to your dog’s health, happiness, and well-being! For my clients in Paradise and Magalia, I did both drop ins and overnight stays. (My favorite memory was staying with two little lovely Dachsies for three weeks!) I made sure each pet I took care of was fed as per the instructions given to me and that they had access to fresh, clean water. Whether it’s maintaining a regular meal routine or making sure your pet stays hydrated throughout the day, I prioritize comfort and health for all furbabies in my care. I also have experience administering medications, whether oral or topical, and am dedicated to ensuring your pets specific medical needs are met with precision and care. I know personally the importance of a vet's instructions and the proper maintenance of a consistent medication routine. I also know the importance of exercise in keeping a pet happy and healthy. Whether it’s a leisurely stroll or a more vigorous activity, I am happy to ensure that your pet gets the exercise and playtime they need! Above all, each dog that I have taken care of I have treated as part of my family. I look forward to providing your furbaby with the same love, attention, and care that I have given to my past clients and to my own pets! I am currently working a few hours on the weekends during the day for an In-Home Healthcare client. I am available days and nights during the week, and evenings and nights on weekends. For any pet in my care, whether it has been a client's pet or my own, I have always ensured that they have gotten plenty of love and quality care. For past clients, I adhered to all instructions given pertaining to feeding time, exercise and medications if applicable. I made sure there were plenty of cuddles and that every pet in my care felt safe and secure.

About: Hi, I'm Larissa—luxury travel advisor by day and lifelong dog mom 24/7. My husband and I adopted our two pups, Rufus and Pippa, from shelters when they were just puppies. Today, they're wise seniors at 13 and 10 years old, and caring for them has given me deep experience with dogs of all ages, personalities, and medical needs. I’m calm, gentle, and attentive in everything I do—from giving oral meds and applying eye gels, to offering snuggles, baths, and cheerful companionship. My goal is simple: to bring joy to your dog’s day. Whether it's a walk, a play session, quiet pets, or a cozy drop-in, I approach every visit as a chance to make a meaningful connection. Pet parents often tell me their dogs seem relaxed and happy after my visits, and that means the world to me. I’d be honored to care for your furry family member while you're away, and to ensure they feel safe, loved, and seen. Pet care is woven into my everyday life—I have two senior dogs, Rufus and Pippa, who were adopted as puppies and have grown up with our family. They require daily walks, medications, and lots of gentle attention, so being attuned to a pet’s physical and emotional needs is second nature. My schedule is flexible thanks to my work as a travel advisor, which allows me to plan visits, walks, or drop-ins around client calls and creative projects. I genuinely enjoy the peaceful break that pet time brings - doggy time brings me joy. I offer care exclusively in the client’s home, ensuring their pet feels secure in a familiar environment. Whether I’m dropping in for a visit or taking them for a walk, I bring a calm and gentle presence. I follow the pet’s existing routine closely—feeding, medications, play, or quiet time - and provide updates so the owner knows their furry family member is happy and well. I’m detail-oriented, intuitive, and committed to making each interaction joyful and low-stress.

“We’ve just decided to make a standing appointment for dog walks w/ Wes. Our pup now knows when we tell him Wes is coming and he gets sooo excited!! THANK YOU, Wes, for being such an awesome buddy for our baby!”

About: As a child I grew up on an acre with many cats and dogs. I have experience walking with dogs that required a lot of running to keep up with. I also have experience dog sitting. I had a pit bull and boxer recently that were absolute sweethearts. I can keep energetic when it's needed, and calm when it's necessary. I homeschool two boys and work from home. I like staying active and busy, so dog walking and house sitting definitely fits into my schedule. I know how to let an animal get comfortable with my energy so I don't inspire anxiety. I am willing to match their energy when they want to play or run. I am also willing to provide comfort and love when they are lonely or overwhelmed. I know how to clean and bandage a wound if it ever comes to that, and will always keep your pets safety and comfort a priority.

About: I have pet sat for family and friends and am now excited to expand this experience. In addition to cats and dogs, I am comfortable with all animals including sheep, goats, and horses. I look forward to building lasting relationships with potential clients. I am a stay at home Mom/Substitute teacher who is available to help with your pet care needs. I have a cat of my own so I know how precious four legged family members are. In your home, I will treat your pet like my own. I will pay particular attention to the comfort and safety of your animal, making sure that all their needs are met. It is also important to me that you feel your pet will be given love and attention while you are gone.

My fence is a secure 6 feet high chain link fence. I am willing to check in on your furry family members, unable to stay at your home, however I am able to stop by every 1-4 hours depending on distance.

About: I’m a huge animal lover of both cats and dogs! I’ve had experience training puppies and also caring, walking, crate training, and maintaining a healthy feeding schedule. I’m open any day of the week at any times and I’m able to come house sit. Most animals are comfortable in their own home so whatever works best for them. I will ensure a safe environment for your pet whether that be crating your pet, keeping a close eye on your pet, and providing them play as a healthy distraction as you arrive.

About: I have been around and taken care of animals since I was a child. I’ve always been told that I “have a way” with animals. My family and friends rely on me to take care of their fur babies while they’re away. Also, I just really want to spend time with your pets. Just don’t tell my cat. I am currently working full time but I only work 3 days a week. So that gives me extra time to do other things. I get my work schedule a month in advance. I am pretty flexible and am willing to work with your needs. I will not be able to bring your pet to my home because I live in an apartment and I don’t think my cats would like that very much. However, I am able to go to your home or a park nearby. Whatever is needed and best for your pets wellbeing.

About: I’m able to give your pets the care they usually have (if not more) while you’re away! As a patient owner of a pup myself, I can’t wait to take care of your pet. A fenced in backyard to play in, with plenty of shade and water. I’m a stay at home wife who is always with her pup Ruby. Constantly running around and playing outside takes up most of my day. Going on walks or playing in the sprinkler on hot days are how we cool off. Pets in my home can expect to roam around our fenced in backyard, hardwood floors with nothing around, and a safe space. They can enjoy the doggy door for when they need to go out. An abundance of toys and room, we can’t wait to host your pets!

About: Hi, I have a 70 lbs brindle who is my big baby. He is great with kids and other dogs. Very well trained. Along with that, I have been dog sitting my friends and family's pets for years. We know that leaving behind our fur babies is heartbreaking but know that your fur baby will be treated like our own and part of the family. I work from home. I have a large fenced backyard that the dogs can explore. My dog likes to be inside the house for the most part unless he is doing his business or sunbathing. We have a doggy door that leads to the backyard. We have a dog park nearby where we take our dog daily and can take your dog as well. My wife and I will take care of any special requirements such as medications, shorter walks (if its an older dog). We live in a residential neighborhood.

About: Important: Rover wont let me change it but i cant watch animals at my home due to landlords policy.I have taken care of birds, rodents, dogs, cats and reptiles. I love animals and I tend to be a quiet person so animals tend to like that lol. My own pets have been rats, a dog named Sachi, and a hamster named Theodore. I sometimes take care of my roommates lizard, a bearded dragon named Goro. I currently dont have any pets. I have open availability since I am currently unemployed, but I am searching for full time work. I can be up as early as 6am. I usually am wary of things like wires and other electronics, and I never leave food out in the off chance some furry creature might eat it.
