Cat Sitting Gordola

About: Pets have been a big part of my childhood. I cared for my family’s senior dog, have pet-sat frequently for friends and family, as well as a few informal clients off rover. I also love being active and running around the Santa Cruz neighborhoods! I’m the perfect pick if you want your dog to get some walks in. I truly believe that all animals require the same kindness, patience, and guidance that people do and I would love to be a part of your journey in caring for your companion :) At the moment, I’m in college but am very flexible and have a $20 discount for any new clients. That’s a walk for free! Please reach out anytime My number one concern in making sure that the owners wants and needs are clearly met and communicated as soon as we meet! It’s so important to me to be able to respect boundaries and more importantly knowing those needs will help me to take the best care I can of our beloved pet companions !! :))

“Skye did an amazing job taking care of my 3 pets. They were all very calm and happy when I had arrived home. She played with my dog Luna in the yard and the pictures showed a very happy girl with her red ball.”

About: I have owned animals for as long as I can remember, ranging from goats, to rabbits, to dogs, and cats. I am equipped in senior care due to my own senior cat, as well as my childhood dog (not living with me)! I have been pet sitting for friends, neighbors, and family for years and love doing it! I absolutely adore all critters and want more than anything to offer them a safe, comfortable, and fun space when their people are away! I'm currently a full time student at UCSC, but I'm only on campus a couple days a week, so I will have plenty of time to take care of animals I'm watching! I'm available most days of the week, save the afternoons and evenings on Thursdays, as well as Friday mornings. That being said, I am still more than happy to host your babies while I'm at school for a few hours! I have a lush, fenced in backyard that is perfect for some supervised outdoor/play time! I live with three cats, two of which are very friendly and love keeping other critters company! The third cat is my senior baby who prefers to keep to herself most of the time, but occasionally enjoys the company of elderly dogs!

About: I’ve taken care of many different types of cats and dogs for nearly 10 years. I currently have two dogs and two cats in my home where I live right now. I am well versed in caring for animals, and love them very much! I have been working as a professional pet and house sitter for nearly two years now as a source of income. I’ve always had a beautiful harmonious relationship with all animals. I have a 5 Star rating on trusted house sitters with 10 public reviews. I can’t post the link here because of rover’s restrictions, but I’d be happy to share with you. My schedule is flexible, as I work sometimes as a substitute elementary school teacher, yoga teacher, and a babysitter. I also have my own small business! I am usually able to be very available to care for pets during most hours of the day. I provide care in whatever way is needed and makes the animals and their owners most comfortable. When housesitting, I prefer to stay overnight with the animals, to ensure the best care for the animals. I am respectful of the space I am in and have had many reviews from people I’ve sat for that I leave their homes cleaner than when they left :)

About: I’ve taken care of and owned animals of all kinds since childhood. Taught and trained by my mother, who’s been a vet tech for over 40 years! I have extensive knowledge of proper pet care practices and continue to keep up to date with all the latest information and research. I have experience handling, training, and caring for pets of various sizes and breeds; including large-small dogs, senior dogs & cats, puppies & kittens, and high needs pets! If your fur baby has behavioral issues or quirks, needs daily medication, and/or has strict dietary guidelines, you can trust that your pets special needs will be met to your standards while in my care! I work part time as a creative professional and musician with a relatively flexible schedule, so I have plenty of time to care for your pet family! If I’m scheduled for a pet care service, I will dedicate the time necessary to fulfill those duties happily I am a very attentive, intuitive, and patient person with both humans and pets. I pride myself on being organized, structured, and honest in home & work environments, and have always lived by the golden rule of leaving a place better than you found it! If the service you choose requires daily and/or overnight stays at your home, you can rely on me to treat your home and pet/s with all the respect and care it deserves.

About: I have been pet sitting for the past 3 years using Trusted House sitters. But grew up with dogs, have lived with cats the last 10 years and love being around all types of animals! I have watched a variety of pet with a range of needs. I love learning about the unique personality each animal has! I work a completely remote job as designers from 7 am - 3 pm PST. During these times, I have sporadic meetings, but nothing that would take me away from watching your animal for over nights. I am a flexible and great at adapting to different schedules and routines. I am an active person so am able to go for walks, hikes or runs based on your dogs needs. I am a naturally tidy person and I will leave your home exactly in the state as when you left. I am available to watch any type of pet in your home! I only can accept dogs in my home. I live on farm with a fenced in yard but outside of that there’s a lot of space to roam. I live with 3 other roommates who are also animal lovers. We live with a cat but he is outside most of the day and feels quite indifferent about dogs.

About: Howdy, I'm Persia, and I would love to walk your amazing best friend! I have 10 years of veterinary medicine and animal welfare experience. I am a certified veterinary assistant. I am a fear free / force free trainer. I love working with all kinds of dogs from the young and hyper to the geriotric babies.🤠🐶 Very blessed pet care can be my biggest passion and career. Working in animal welfare for the past 15years has giving me the knowledge and experience to be able to pursue my dreams No matter the service, I am dedicated to providing and following all safety protocols for every house, walks, or bathing service. I never walk a dog without a leash. I advocate for all dogs while on walks for others not to pet or approach with their dogs to keep everyone safe.

“Leaving your pets to go on a trip can be stressful, even more so if they have health conditions. However, rest assured that your pets will be in great hands with Shannon. She was absolutely wonderful with our kitties. Not only she carefully followed all of our instructions, including administering medications and providing extra attention to some of our kitties when needed. She truly went above and beyond to keep our kitties comfortable, happy and healthy. Throughout our time away, Shannon was in regular contact with us and provided thoughtful updates and observations about our kitties. We could enjoy our trip knowing that someone really cared about our pets.”

“Rukhsar was such a great cat sitter. My normally shy cat even seemed to warm up to her fairly quickly. Her communication and quality of care for my kitty was amazing and I felt like my cat was in good hands while I was gone. I will for sure be using her again if we need another cat sitter.”

Amanda G.

“Fuliang did a great job. I felt my cat Alba was well cared for. I got a nice detailed report on the last day. Could have used a picture of my cat everyday but otherwise I am a very satisfied customer and will use this sitter again for my pet sitting needs.”

“No problems, no worries, a pleasant experience”

About: Work From Home Sitter: I started caring for pets at 19 and have loved it ever since. I’ve lived with dogs and cats for years and have hands on experience from volunteering with 67 cats and 60 dogs at a rescue farm in Antalya, Turkey. I also pet sat while traveling the world, gaining experience with many breeds and personalities. I grew up in a farm with almost all the animals herding sheeps and cows . Friends trust me with their pets when they’re away, and I bring calm, patience, and genuine care to every animal I meet. I’ve used several platforms around the world for pet sitting, and you can find additional reviews about me on Workaway and Facebook. I also have a strong background in childcare I worked as a full-time au pair(childcare), caring for children safely and responsibly for four years across different families, parents trusted me with their children. I take care of pets like they're children they're both so speacial. I provide doggy daycare and have extensive experience working with puppies and dogs with separation anxiety. Since I work from home, I can help with training, and if a dog cannot be left alone, I make sure they are always supervised. A portion of my petsitting income supports the education of village girls in the mountainous regions of Eastern Turkey, including six girls I’ve been supporting over the years some now continuing their studies in high school. Work From Home Sitter living near a dog park and walking trail: I work online from home, which gives me a very flexible schedule for pet care. I can easily stay overnight, or host the pets in my home visit during the day for walks and feed. My routine makes it easy for me to give pets consistent attention, walks, playtime, and comfort throughout the day. To provide the best care, I accept a maximum of two dogs at a time and always introduce them before accepting a second dog to make sure they get along. If they don’t, I only accept one dog at a time. It’s important to me that every dog has the best stay possible like a little vacation while their owner is away. During my lunch break, I take the dog to the dog park or to Stevens Creek Trail near me. After I finish work, usually around 3:30 pm, we go out again. I can also work from your home if your pet needs extra company. Lastly, I live with my husband works from home a couple days a week and grew up with cats, dogs, and hamsters, so pets usually feel comfortable around him. I live in a clean, quiet townhouse with a small patio, and I create a calm environment for any pet I host. Since I work from home, I’m always nearby to check on them, give attention, and take them out for quick potty breaks throughout the day. I live close to the dog park and Stevens Creek trail if your dog is high energy and need play time. To provide the best care, I accept a maximum of two dogs at a time and always introduce them before accepting a second dog to make sure they get along. If they don’t, I only accept one dog at a time. It’s important to me that every dog has the best stay possible like a little vacation while their owner is away. I always inform the pet parents if they are okay with the second dog and if they are okay to have intruduction. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow all instructions carefully and keep routines consistent. I pay close attention to safety, doors and gates, feeding schedules, and your pet’s comfort. I treat every home with respect and every pet with the same care I would give my own.

“Angelina took care of our cat with diabetes while we were out for a weekend. She was detail oriented, and gave him his medication and insulin shots, along with a lot of love! She was very prompt in communication, and gave us regular updates.”

About: I have experience caring for cats and dogs and understand that every pet has their own personality and routine. I’m attentive, patient, and responsible, and I love giving pets plenty of playtime, affection, and companionship. I have hands on experience caring for my own cat, including feeding, litter box care, playtime, grooming, and paying attention to changes in behavior or routine. I also have experience pet sitting for family and friends and also make sure their pet feels right at home with collecting information like their favorite treats and toys. I’m currently working part time and attending school, so my availability varies by day. I’m happy to coordinate around your pet’s needs and can provide attentive care during my available hours. I’m especially available for drop ins and walks in the afternoons, evenings, and on weekends. I am also available for boarding on weekends! Pets staying with me will be cared for in a clean, comfortable, and pet friendly home. I have my own cat, Pooshi, so I’m familiar with providing consistent feeding, litter box care, playtime, and attention. I’ll follow each pet’s routine and instructions closely and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for throughout their stay. I also do have a big room available for pets to sleep and play in with plenty of toys. I have a big backyard which is fenced and completely safe for any animals. I have experience in boarding and dog sitting so playing with dogs and following their routines will not be hard for me. I'm also careful about introductions and will only accept pets whose temperament and needs are a good fit for my home.

“Ana provided exceptional and reliable care for our two cats, Gimli and MoMo, while we were away. She is highly trustworthy and extremely responsible. Her communication was excellent; she sent frequent photos and updates to confirm the cats were consistently fed, cared for, and happy. We felt completely at ease knowing Ana was looking after them. We returned home to two relaxed, well-cared-for pets. We highly recommend Ana for her professional and caring service!”
