Pet Sitting Grande

“The best cat sitter ever! Goes above and beyond.”

“Sydney showed up at 8am before we left for our day to Disneyland. We acquainted her with our two dogs and they took to her right away.. Sydney really has a way with dogs. They both loved her so much, immediately. Our dog situation isn’t easy. We have a four year-old American bully and a one year-old very energetic pitbull who’s so much fun however, for the time being we’re keeping both dogs separate and Sydney kept both of our dogs, safe & clean, and even though Henny had an accident, Sydney cleaned up everything & was even able to feed her and get her back in her crate safe safely. Our family is so grateful to Sydney for taking such incredible care of our family dogs! Thank you!”

About: I have many years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of different breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities, including paid pet-sitting experience. I'm also a proud dog owner, so I understand how important it is to find someone dependable and trustworthy to care for your furry family members. I have experience caring for puppies, including helping with basic training, positive reinforcement, potty training, leash manners, and establishing consistent routines. I understand that puppies require extra patience, attention, and encouragement as they learn and grow. What sets me apart is my patience, reliability, and genuine love for animals. I take the time to get to know each dog's unique personality, energy level, and needs. Whether it's an energetic puppy who loves to play or a laid-back dog who enjoys a relaxing walk, I tailor my care to help them feel comfortable and happy. I believe communication is just as important as quality pet care. I'll follow your instructions closely, respect your home, and provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands. My goal is simple: to treat every pet with the same love, kindness, and attention I give my own dog, Pepper! Pet care is already a natural part of my daily routine as a proud dog owner. I'm used to planning my day around walks, feeding schedules, potty breaks, playtime, and making sure pets receive plenty of love and attention. As an independent contractor, I have a very flexible schedule throughout the week, including weekdays and weekends. This allows me to accommodate a variety of pet-care needs, whether it's an early morning walk, a midday drop-in visit, an evening potty break, or overnight house sitting. I enjoy spending time outdoors and staying active, so dog walking and caring for pets fit naturally into my lifestyle. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, and I'm happy to work around their schedule to keep them comfortable and happy. I'm dependable, organized, and committed to showing up on time, following instructions, and providing regular updates and photos. My goal is to offer flexible, reliable, and personalized care that gives pet parents peace of mind knowing their furry family members are in good hands! Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. As a longtime dog owner with years of pet-care experience, I understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member. When caring for pets in a client's home, I do my best to maintain their familiar routines and environment to help them feel comfortable and secure. I carefully follow instructions for feeding, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and any special needs or preferences. I also respect your home, keep doors and gates secure, and make sure your pet is supervised and cared for appropriately. During walks, I pay close attention to each dog's behavior, energy level, and surroundings, always prioritizing safe handling and positive experiences. For puppies, I'm happy to reinforce established training routines and provide the extra patience and attention they need. I believe trust is built through reliability and communication. I'll provide regular updates and photos, and I'll never hesitate to reach out if I have questions or concerns. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your pet is safe, happy, and receiving the same kindness and attention I give my own dog.

“Dina helped out with my cat for about a week while I was travelling. She sent pictures daily, spent time to make sure my very shy cat was doing ok and generally was great to work with. I will book with Dina again for sure.”

About: Hi! We are Camille and Daihong, a husband and wife team who would love to welcome your pup into our little family! I grew up with a dog and have been around dogs for most of my life, while Daihong became a first time dog dad when we got our Mia. Now he might be just as obsessed with dogs as I am, if not more! 😂 We are currently raising Mia our super sweet doodle, and she absolutely loves people and other dogs. She is playful, social, and always excited to make a new friend, so your pup will have a built in buddy during their stay! As dog parents ourselves, we know how nerve wracking it can be to leave your baby with someone else. We will treat your dog like one of our own with lots of attention, playtime, cuddles, walks, and probably a little extra spoiling. ❤️ We are also happy to follow your dog’s normal routine and send plenty of pictures and updates so you can relax knowing they are safe, happy, and having a great time. Our goal is for your dog to feel like they are having a little vacation of their own while you are away! 🐶🏡 I work from home Monday through Wednesday, and Daihong works from home full time, so someone will always be home with your pup! Our days already revolve around caring for Mia, so walks, potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of attention are a normal part of our daily routine. We have lots of flexibility and are happy to accommodate your dog’s usual schedule as much as possible. We live in an apartment, so we are best suited for small to medium sized dogs who are comfortable in an apartment environment. We take Mia out regularly throughout the day for walks and potty breaks, and there is a dog park right across the street that we love taking her to for some extra exercise and playtime. Mia is very friendly and loves both people and other dogs, so your pup will have a built in buddy during their stay! Since Daihong works from home full time, someone is usually around to keep an eye on the pups and give them plenty of attention. We are also happy to follow your dog’s normal feeding, walking, sleeping, and crate routine so they can feel as comfortable and at home as possible. ❤️

About: I am a owner of two maltese dogs and understand the hard work and care necessary for keeping a pet. I am a trusted and involved pet sitter in my family/friend circle. From Lovebirds to active Huskies, I have looked after them all! The key characteristics that I am qualified with are patience, attentiveness, communication, and attention to detail. Additionally, I am a second year Animal Science major at UC Davis. Many of my courses involve hands-on animal handling and husbandry knowledge. I understand that pets are family, and it's essential they feel comfortable and secure in their environment. Please feel free to message me if you’re interested in my pet sitting or dog walking services. I can’t wait to meet you and your pets! I'm currently a full time student. I work my schedule around classes each quarter. During this Fall quarter I am primarily available Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday at 4:00pm. I am also available for mornings on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday from 7am - 12pm. Weekends I am flexible and open! My apartment is a peaceful, pet-friendly haven! We’re right next to green spaces and the arboretum, making it ideal for long, relaxing walks. Although I share the space with three roommates, we are all dog lovers who maintain a quiet, calm lifestyle. For in-home pet sitting I aim to keep your pet relaxed in their familiar space. I maintain a low-key routine, ensuring your home stays quiet and your pet receives dedicated attention, regular outdoor exercise, and consistent care. Your pet will receive plenty of love, attention, and a relaxing place to feel right at home.

“We’re very happy with the care Anjali provided for our kitties while we were away. She was responsible, reliable, and very loving with them. She sent us regular updates and photos, which gave us a lot of peace of mind. At one point, I reached out to her because I needed her to check something specific with their litter box and automatic feeder, and she responded right away and took care of it. Communication was great throughout, and we felt very comfortable knowing our kitties were in good hands. We would definitely recommend her!”

“We hired Jessica for a long weekend while we were on vacation. Jessica went above and beyond for our two cats and sent lots of pictures! I would highly recommend her and definitely book again!”

Daniela L.

“Gave us regular pics of our kitty and kept us in the loop throughout the whole process. Would recommend Alyssa for anyone looking for a pet sitter!”

About: I’m a UC Davis Animal Science student who has always loved animals and enjoys caring for them. I have hands-on experience with my own Toy Poodle and have learned professional pet care through veterinary assistant experience and shadowing at veterinary clinic. These experiences have helped me better understand animal behavior, safe handling, and the importance of providing attentive care. I keep my calendar updated and always make time for walks, playtime, feeding, and lots of attention. I’ll communicate with you throughout your pet’s stay and provide regular photo updates so you can feel confident they’re in good hands. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. Through my veterinary hospital shadowing experience, I’ve learned to recognize changes in pets’ behavior and handle them calmly and carefully. I follow each owner’s instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications (if needed), exercise, and routines.

“Misha was very sweet and able to help last minute. Highly recommend!”

“Carmen did a great job of taking care of our dog. She came for a meet and greet before her first visit. She kept in touch with us after visits or walks with our dog and sent pictures as well. Would love to have her sit again.”

About: I’ve been training and loving my dog, Rocky, since he was a puppy. He has taught me a lot about what is required to care for a pet. I also interned at a vet hospital in high school which gave me an opportunity to interact with many dogs and cats in a space where most of them were scared so I enjoyed comforting them. Although I can’t preform surgery on your pet, I can show them the care they deserve. As a college student my schedule changes often. For now I am most free, Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays after 12pm. Tuesdays and Thursdays I get home a little after 4pm. Weekends I am usually free unless I go home to visit family. I live in an apartment but it has a small fenced yard where your dog could unwind and go potty whenever they need to. If given the opportunity to care for your pet I would also ensure daily walks and other activities for enrichment. There are no other pets in my apartment right now since my dog is living with my parents, so that will give me the chance to focus my attention and energy on your pet!

“Emma is the best!! She’s so thoughtful and goes out of her way to give the best care possible. My cats love her and I’ll definitely ask her to help again : )”

About: Animals have been at the heart of my life for as long as I can remember. Raised on a farm and on a pre-vet track from a young age, I’ve spent decades caring for animals of all kinds—from house pets to livestock to wildlife. Starting at 14, I volunteered in local vet clinics and wildlife rehab centers, gaining hands-on experience with everything from cats and dogs to peacocks, horses, goats, snakes, fish, birds, and cattle. At UC Davis, I deepened my care skills while working at the world-renowned Vet Hospital, tending to cats and dogs during the swing shift. I also worked with campus goats, pigs, sheep, fish, cattle, and horses—and even fostered cats for the hospital. Now in my 30s, I’m an education professional and dedicated pet mom to both cats and dogs. I continue to care for friends’ and neighbors’ pets with the same compassion, attention, and responsibility that’s guided me my whole life. I’m certified in Cat & Dog CPR & First Aid, and Infant, Child, and Adult CPR/AED/First Aid, and have emergency care experience with animals large and small. I’m calm under pressure, reliable, and always communicate clearly—your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I'm currently taking a break from teaching, and being a full-time stay-at-home mama to my 3 year old daughter and 6 month old son. I have plenty of time to care for your furry family member. Please note that at this time, we are seeking families whose pets are comfortable around toddlers and babies. I have a fully fenced yard, and a park just around the corner from my house for those whose furry friends enjoy a stretch, walk, or playtime! I am comfortable using a crate, and we have plenty of floor room in the house (carpet and laminate) for them to lay down if they're not crate trained. We do not allow dogs on the furniture. Cats are allowed to wander the house. We are more than happy to put up child gates to keep your furry family member in certain areas of the house if they're prone to getting into things (such as stuffed animals for the kiddos... I mean really, a lot of doggie toys these days look so similar! I'd understand the misconception. lol) We're not afraid to be firm but kind if your family member needs set boundaries.

“Michelle was great! She took great care of our kitties, wdbr above and beyond to play with them and even show up for an extra drop in when we were unable to make it home on time.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs ever since I was 8 years old. I’ve owned multiple dogs my whole life and they are my favorite animals. My neighbors and friends trust me to take care of their pets when they are away. I’m currently working a very flexible part time job, so I have plenty of time to hangout and take care of my dog and other dogs. I am also very athletic and am always going on runs with my dog. I have a medium sized fenced in backyard and a 6 year old playful lab to keep your pup company. The bay trail is right behind my house so taking the dogs on walks is super safe!

About: I’ve taken care of many pets from senior animals on their deathbeds to infants needing bottle feeding, animals with behavior issues, and animals needing medical care. I am familiar with training animals and am not afraid of a challenge. I do not currently have any obligations, so my schedule is completely open and I am available to care for your pets at any time. I try to create a safe and welcoming environment for the animals, making them feel at home while making sure they are safe and cared for.

“Jessie is wonderful to have as our pet sitter! She communicates well and was so great with Oslo. She is totally trustworthy and we will definitely be calling upon her again!”

About: I've taken care of dogs for the last 4 years, with neighbors and friends relying on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets. I have raised and trained a labradoodle puppy who is now 1.5 years old. I am currently studying biology at UC Davis. I am available after 5 pm on weekdays and on the weekends. I'm also available to care for your dog over the holidays, like winter break and Christmas. I have a fenced backyard with a grass area. Additionally, I also have a friendly labradoodle to keep your dog company. I can also carate your dog, if you prefer.
