About: I have grown up around animals and have a genuine love for them. I have experience fostering and owning animals, understanding their unique needs. I take the time to build trust with each pet as I not only want to provide basic care but a positive and productive experience for the owner and pet. I am currently a full time college student. I have plenty of free time on my hands to spend with your furbabies. I own 6 of my own cats and understand the responsibility and attentiveness that is involved in the care of pets. I understand each pet is different, hence I want to adhere to an environment that makes them as comfortable as possible. Any established routines with your pet will be continued, extending to their feeding schedule and playtime. Additionally, I will take note of any special circumstances your pet may have and will adapt my care to fit their needs.

About: I’ve fostered dogs, senior dogs, cats, and kittens, and I have a dog of my own who means the world to me. 🐾 I treat every pet like my own with lots of love, patience, attention, and care. I’m comfortable with different personalities and needs, and my goal is always to make your pet feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away ⭐ I recently graduated from college and am taking a gap year, so I have lots of free time and a pretty flexible schedule. I love having pets as part of my day and genuinely enjoy spending time with them, whether that’s going for walks, playing, or simply keeping them company. I have a fenced yard where pets can safely enjoy some fresh air and playtime, and I live close to a dog park for extra walks and adventures. I also have a friendly dog who loves having furry friends around. I always make sure each pet’s personality, routine, and comfort level come first, so they feel safe, happy, and cared for while they’re with me.

About: Hi! I’m Analise, a college student finishing up my last semester, which means I have plenty of flexibility and time to give your pets the attention and care they deserve! I’ve been caring for dogs my entire life, from energetic puppies to sweet senior pups. I especially love working with high energy dogs, anxious dogs, and pets who need medication or extra care. I’m patient, attentive, and comfortable adjusting my care to each pet’s individual needs and personality. As a full-time student with college classes three days a week and a part-time job, I’ve learned how to manage my time effectively. I carefully plan my schedule to make sure I can fit pet care in between my other responsibilities. On my days off from college or work, I’m fully available for longer visits, walks, or extended care. On busier days, I still have time between classes or shifts for quick check-ins, feeding, or short walks. Pet care is something I genuinely enjoy, so I always make sure it fits smoothly into my weekly routine I’m very careful and always pay close attention to each dog’s individual needs. Whether I’m in my home or the client’s, I make sure the pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. I follow any specific instructions and routines closely, making sure the animal gets the right food, exercise, and attention. I’m also loving and playful, so pets not only feel looked after, they have fun too! I treat every dog like they’re my own.

About: I’ve cared for others pets for almost 10 years including dogs, cats, chickens, and fish. Experienced with young and senior animals, and administering oral and optic medications. I currently have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets lots of time, attention, and consistency throughout the day. I’m available for morning, midday, and evening visits, as well as overnight care if needed. I do occasionally care for other pets, but I’m very mindful with my scheduling to make sure every animal gets the time, care, and routine they deserve. I always prioritize being reliable, communicative, and making pets feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I treat every pet like they’re my own and always want them to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I stick closely to their usual routine—whether that’s feedings, walks, playtime, or medications—because I know how important consistency is for them. In your home, I’m very respectful of your space and make sure everything stays secure (doors, gates, etc.) so your pet is always safe. I take time to get to know each pet’s personality, whether they’re playful, shy, or just want extra cuddles. I’m also experienced with administering oral and eye medications if needed. My goal is for you to feel completely at ease, knowing your pet is happy, safe, and getting lots of attention. 🐾

About: Hello 👋 I’m Brittany — a professional pet sitter and dog walker originally from New York with a huge love for animals. I have veterinary assistant training, dog training assistant experience, and I’ve volunteered at numerous animal shelters throughout my life. Beyond my professional experience, I’ve been around animals my entire life. I grew up spending time on my grandparents’ horse farm in upstate New York, helping care for the horses and other animals. Over the years, I’ve personally owned and cared for a wide variety of pets, from dogs and cats to small animals, birds, reptiles, and farm animals. Dogs and horses have always held a special place in my heart. As a mom to a teenager and 5 fur babies of my own, I know pets are family. I treat every animal like my own and make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for. 🐾 I have a flexible schedule during the week. I’m only unavailable from 7:30–9:00 AM and 2:30–4:00 PM on weekdays for my daughter’s school drop-off and pick-up. I come prepared for every visit with my own utility belt stocked with all-natural treats and waste bags, plus my own leash, ice-cold water, and a travel water bowl. I also bring a tennis ball for playtime, a brush for pups who enjoy it, and paw balm when needed. 🐾 You’ll usually see me arrive for visits by e-bike 🚲, but I use my car if weather conditions call for it. I’m also comfortable caring for large, strong, and high-energy dogs.

“Very reliable, and does a good job walking my dog!”

About: I have been around animals my entire life and have volunteered at an animal shelter where I socialized puppies and cats. Animals have always been very comfortable around me and vice versa. I am comfortable with all sizes of dogs and breeds. I care very deeply for animals and would love to help you ensure your dogs are getting the exercise and attention they need. I graduated college with a major in veterinary technology at TJC, and currently work as a veterinary technician. I do have a full time job at a veterinary clinic with my days and hours varying. Typically I work 5 days a week with a max of 8 hours a day. Due to this I am unable to be with your pet at all times but would love to spend my free time with them! I make sure to stay in close proximity to the animal and keep a close eye on them while playing with toys to prevent any injury. I am very knowledge on what kinds of things are toxic to both cats and dogs and am able to pick up on signs of possible varying illnesses.

About: I will care for your puppy with a lot of love and respect, and I can follow your step-by-step instructions on how to care for your furry family member. I am loving, caring, fun, and very hygienic. I also offer grooming services with relaxing pet massages. I am confident that if you trust me with your furry, they will want to come back and be part of our home and daily activities. I have 10 years of experience caring for pets, during which I have learned to truly love them. I believe that pets are guardians of the human heart. Their purpose is to bring joy and love to those who welcome them and make them part of their family. My schedule is flexible from Monday to Sunday. At the moment I'm at home all week and willing to take care of and have fun with your furry. Plenty of places to go out for walks with our family and plenty of snuggles to receive from our kiddos. I live in a lovely home with a small but beautiful garden where pets can relax and enjoy fresh air. I’m located right in the heart of Riverside, a great area for daily walks and neighborhood strolls, and I love taking cute photos along the way. I don’t currently have pets of my own, so your furry friend will receive my full attention, care, and love at all times.

About: I cared for my first puppy when I was 7 years old, and ever since then I've been a friend to dogs. I especially love to play, run, chase, and walk with energetic pets. Of course, providing affection, attention, and treats are a given with me. I have a very flexible schedule right now, with no other jobs at the moment and plenty of time to travel and spend quality time with your little ones! Dogs love walking in their free time, and so do I. I am especially free during the day, perfect for typical work shifts when your puppies or kitties might otherwise be alone. I always follow pet care instructions to a tee, including what spaces they may safely hang out in, what they shouldn't eat or play with, and how they act in various conditions. I want them to be safw and comfortable, always! As if nothing has changed at all from their usual beloved home.

About: Hi! My name is Sherleen and I love dogs and have always grown up with them. I had a childhood chihuahua that I took care of for over 15 years. I now have a malte poo and a pug that I’ve been raising for over 11 years since before they could be weaned from their mom. You can imagine the nights waking up to feed them like human babies! I’ve picked up doggie accidents that seemed like natural disasters and have groomed and bathed my dogs since having them. I’ve cared for dogs from shelters who have trust issues around humans, dogs with behavioral issues and health issues. This includes giving them routine medication around the clock, dedicating time to gaining trust, or as simple as them needing help cleaning themselves after using the restroom. I own 2 Brachycephalic dogs so I also understand the attention those breeds require. Personally, my pug is allergic to fleas and ticks so my house and yard are flea and tick free for her safety! I am a college student who’s doing classes in person on the mornings and can 100% dedicate attention and care. Please message me if you need me during a day I don’t have “available”!!! I’m also really available during holidays! I can do special requests and update my calendar for you (M,Th, 11:30 pm- 6pm) (T, 1:30 and ongoing) (W, 12:30 - 6pm) Just message me and I’ll work something out for your situation! Pets are our babies and deserve nothing less! I currently work with students as an orchestra tutor and a coach working with students ranging of ages. I work around schedules for students and I can do the same for people needing pet sitting! I As a school district worker I am required to do background checks and fingerprints to be a teacher, I understand having a stranger take care of your dog can be stressful but with this knowledge I hope I can ease some of your minds. As a dog owner it’s only essential to give your dog attention, interaction and above all, patience. Dogs like playing, walking or just chilling with their owners and those things vary between dogs! Some have way more energy than other dogs and it’s important to know what they need especially since they can’t talk for themselves. In my household I have a yard that my dogs stay outside for the majority of the day. When bringing in new dogs, I will keep your dog/s indoors and take care of their needs at all times with me so in the case they’re not used to other pups I have a barrier.

About: About Me Hi, I’m Marissa, owner of Shining Light’s K9 Services! 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: I have worked in a pet food and supply store for two years where I learned a lot about how to properly take care of dogs, and how to train puppies. I have also had two dogs for about ten years now. I do part time work, but my hours there are short and flexible. I am available all other times including evenings and weekends for walks, and to check in on dogs. For houses sitting services I am available all week. I live by many parks for the dogs to play in, and I would be happy to take them to dog beaches or dog parks. I am unable to bring dogs inside my home right now as I’m living with someone who is extremely allergic, but still want to fill my heart with the joys of dogs.

About: I’ve had pets as part of my family my entire life. Currently own 2 dogs and 1 cat…. They are great, give lots of joy, and keep me busy. I work from home and have a flexible schedule. I’d love to go on more walks and care for more cats and dogs. I have experience with many breeds and sizes. I don’t expect to board pets right now as we have a full household but I can walk and provide visits to your pets while you are out of town.

“Awesome dog walker, the dogs love him and he always goes above and beyond”

About: Hello fellow fur parents! Leaving your pets with a stranger is definitely unnerving and understandable. As a fellow dog owner I love helping others feel at ease while away and confident that their little ones are in good hands. We currently own a Boston terrier and Swiss Shepherd, both are as sweet as pie and get along with any pup. During their stay, your pup will get plenty of exercise and TLC. I love puppy cuddles and spoiling fur babies. We have plenty of toys and room to play so your little ones will be comfortable and happy. I look forward to meeting you! I work from home and have a very flexible schedule to easily fit doggy care into my routine. I am a long time dog sitter/walker love taking care of animals. I have a fenced backyard to keep your pup safe. We typically visit the dog park if it’s open or go for a 1-1.5 hour walk, depending on your pup’s energy level. I have a crate available, dog beds, doggy gate, and a doggy door for all dog sizes. I only provide treats if given permission, otherwise I will adhere to any diet restrictions.

“Jasmine is doing a good job. She is punctual and shows great care when with Bob. Bob is always happy to see Jasmine.”

About: I have hands-on experience caring for my own cat, Binx, as well as my large-breed German Shepherd. I’ve also pet sat for others and am comfortable with daily tasks like feeding, refreshing water, cleaning litter boxes, and making sure pets feel safe and relaxed. I’m patient, attentive, and good at understanding different pet personalities, whether they’re playful, shy, or more independent. I focus on keeping pets on their normal routine and giving them the care and attention they need while you’re away. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine, and I make sure to plan my schedule around each pet’s needs. I’m consistent with feeding times, check-ins, and giving pets attention so they feel comfortable and cared for. I always prioritize safety and a calm environment. In a client’s home, I follow all instructions carefully to keep pets on their normal routine. I make sure they have fresh water, clean spaces, and plenty of attention. I’m respectful of your home and treat your pets like my own.

“Samantha was amazing! Great communication and super friendly. Sent me pictures and updates about my dog. He definitely loved her. Will book her again”

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.
