Cat Sitting in Glen Avon

“Tori made our vacation truly stress-free by caring for our two dogs while we were away. Her updates were fantastic, and we had absolutely no doubts that our fur-babies were in good hands. She is responsible and kind, timely, and her love for animals is always apparent. She is a top-notch sitter.”

About: About Me Hi, I’m Marissa, owner of Shining Light’s K9 Services! Open all year round. I have extensive experience caring for dogs of all breeds, ages, and temperaments—including those with aggression, reactivity, or other behavioral challenges. Over the years, I’ve worked in multiple dog hotels/doggy daycares, in pet grooming, and as a freelance trainer, giving me a well-rounded understanding of canine care and behavior. I specialize in creating a safe, structured, and comfortable environment for every dog I work with. Whether your pet needs a calm walk, a high-energy run, targeted training, or simply loving companionship, I tailor my approach to their unique needs. Administering medications is never an issue, and I pride myself on excellent communication so you can feel at ease while you’re away. Your dog’s safety, happiness, and progress are always my top priorities. With me, your fur baby will be in experienced, loving, and capable hands. Pet care is my full-time job and passion. I run my own business, Shining Light’s K9 Services, from home, so caring for dogs is part of my daily routine from morning to night. I structure my day around feeding schedules, walks, playtime, training sessions, and any special care each pet needs. Because this is my full-time work, I have the flexibility to give your pet consistent attention, exercise, and companionship throughout the day. Your pet’s safety and comfort always come first. In my home, I offer multiple sleeping options so your dog feels at ease—whether that’s a cozy crate, a comfy dog bed in my living room, or even in my bedroom if that’s what they’re used to. I maintain a clean, secure environment, with constant supervision and safe spaces for rest or play. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow your instructions exactly to keep their routine consistent and stress-free. I make sure food, water, and medications are given on schedule, and I always take time for walks, play, and affection. Whether at my home or yours, my goal is to ensure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away.

About: Ever since I was a little girl, I’ve always seen pets as a companion. I enjoy spending time with animals, bathing them, playing with them, feeding them and walking them. I’m a responsible hard working and lovable person. I will treat your dogs as if they were my own. Also I love to take the time to sing to them because I believe every dog has their own personality and when given the right caretaker they behave in a respectful manner. Your animals need someone like me to show them love & affection. Not only will I give them attention but I can provide them to learn how to be potty trained, learn how to play fetch and teach them to sit & roll over.

“Andrea took exceptional care of our babies!! My husband and I went on vacation during the midst of Hurricane Hillary and Andrea went above and beyond to ensure our babies were safe and taken care of! With our permission, she boarded our kitties to her home so they wouldn’t be left alone during the hurricane. She made sure they were well fed and comfortable, even bringing their favorite toys and kneading blankets with her. I’m so so grateful for Andrea and her attentiveness. She’s a wonderful pet caretaker. Thank you so much Andrea!!?”

“Rebecca did an amazing job watching my 3 kitties for 6 days. Our previous pet sitter cancelled a few days before our trip and Rebecca was able to accommodate us last minute. Rebecca sent multiple pictures each day of all 3 cats. Even our shyest kitty came out to play with Rebecca. She did a great job moving around our enrichment items daily so the kitties didn’t get bored and become naughty. She played with them daily and took care of all their needs. We came home to happy cats. I highly recommend Rebecca and would have her pet sit again in a heartbeat.”

About: Hi! My name is Danielle. I’m from California and I have been taking care of various dog breeds since I was seven years old. I specialize in all aspects of their health, including behavior, training, diet, exercise, and special needs. I travel throughout the year, but when I live in California where I help my mom run a private dog park! I own two small dogs, and I have successfully dog-sat for many breeds, even hosting other dogs overnight in my home with them. Additionally, I have assisted numerous stray dogs in finding their way home and have helped rehome several others. I am passionate and dedicated to ensuring our furry friends are happy and safe, and I would love the opportunity to dog-sit for you! Pet care fits into my weekly routine as I am home all day, with my dog Honey, who is super sweet and friendly! I am currently in between jobs, so I will be with your pet 24/7. It is my priority to keep pets happy and safe. I have studied the behavior of dogs and can read them pretty well. My friends call me the “dog whisperer” lol. I have a dog of my own, who is very spoiled and well taken care of. I would care for anyone’s pet the same as I do mine, with lots of love and attention. If a pet needs to board overnight, I can accommodate to keeping them in the room with me, on a doggie bed. My dog sleeps on the bed with me, but I can provide a cozy crate if that makes your pet more comfy. If I am to go to a clients home, I would need to bring my dog, but I can have her in a carrier if need be. (:

“Kaylie is great! She goes above and beyond….much appreciated!!”

About: I’ve had dogs for as long as I can remember and grew up always having them as part of my family. My current dog is 11 years old, and I’ve cared for her ever since she was just 4 months old. Four years later, I welcomed another dog into my life, which taught me even more about balancing different personalities, energy levels, and needs. Overall, I have a lot of experience caring for both dogs and cats, and animals have always naturally gravitated towards me. I treat every pet as if they were my own, and will make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I am currently a graduate student entering clinical rotations, which allows me to offer check ins and walks in the early mornings and afternoons. I am available for boarding on weekend, and can provide attentive, consistent care during those times. When caring for pets in their own home, I will prioritize safety, trust, and maintaining their normal routine. I will carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, walking, medications, and house routes. My goal is to create a safe, calm, and comfortable environment so your pet feels comfortable and stress-free while you’re away.

About: I have experience caring for cats both personally and through drop-in visits for friends. My responsibilities include feeding, litter box cleaning, administering basic care, and spending quality time with cats according to their individual needs. As a cat owner myself, I understand how worrying it can be to be away from home, and I always treat each cat with the same care and attention I would want for my own. I understand how important routine and a calm environment are for cats. I currently offer flexible availability for cat drop-in visits. I do my best to accommodate each cat’s routine and preferred visit times, and I always communicate clearly in advance if any adjustments are needed. My schedule may vary, but I prioritize reliability and consistency for confirmed bookings. As a cat owner myself, I understand how stressful it can feel to be away from your pet. During drop-in visits, I prioritize safety and a calm environment: I secure doors/windows, move slowly and gently, and respect each cat’s personality and boundaries. I keep hands and supplies clean, follow feeding and litter instructions carefully, and provide enrichment and companionship. You’ll receive detailed updates and photos every visit, and I will message you immediately if I notice any health or behavior concerns.

About: I already love your furbabies, we just haven't met yet! ❤️❤️❤️ Many people call me a "Dog Whisperer," and while I don’t claim the title, animals respond to my calm, intuitive presence. I bring emotional attunement, patience, and loving structure to every visit. Whether your baby is playful, shy, or needs extra TLC, I honor their unique personality. Pet sitting is more than a side gig; it’s a healing, heart-centered exchange. I offer sacred companion care that gives your pet peace and you peace of mind. I'm a Certified Self-Love Coach with a flexible schedule, which allows me to prioritize your pet’s care with presence and ease. I structure my day around the needs of the animals in my care. Whether it’s early mornings, midday walks, or calm overnight stays, I make space for them to feel safe, seen, and loved. While sitting, I read, reflect, or study, but their comfort always comes first. I care for pets in the comfort of their own home, where their routines, scents, and surroundings bring them calm. I ask detailed questions ahead of time (walk schedule, feeding preferences, medication, etc.) and follow your instructions to the letter. My care style is clean, respectful, and rooted in trust. I adapt to each animal's rhythm and always check in if something feels off. Your home is your sanctuary, and I treat it with the same care I give to your pet.
