About: I’ve had hand-on experience as well caring for my neighbors dog since she was a puppy. I helped look after her regularly by spending time with her and keeping her company as well as looking over her when needed. I’ve learnt the patience, attentiveness, and consistency that’s is required for a dog’s individual needs especially witnessing it from puppyhood when she could be carried easily up to when she’s heavy to hold up.

I prioritize heavily on making pets feel comfortable and safe in their environment. I’ve careful to follow each pet parent’s instructions, keeping doors and gates to close attention, and making sure all parts of their routine, for, water, walks, playtime are all handled as recommended.

About: I have around five years of practical experience in providing dependable care for pets belonging to friends and family members. My pet experience includes walking, bathing, arranging meal times and treat routines, as well as enjoying quality time with them while their owners are away, sometimes for weeks at a time. Therefore, I feel quite confident in my ability to care for any dog for extended periods. Plus, I genuinely love going for daily walks every morning, and dogs always manage to bring a smile to my face. Since I'm on break, I'll be free Monday through Saturday, 5 days a week. What hours work best for you will work best for me! I will always review the guidelines given by my client for house-sitting or dog-walking services, and I will make sure to follow any additional instructions to a T. When I first meet a cat or dog, I take the time to understand the animal's temperament, checking for any signs of anxiety or specific likes and dislikes. I care a lot in ensuring that the pets feel secure when around someone new. After that, I simply enjoy spending time with them, hoping that they will grow to appreciate my company too!

About: Hi! I’ve grown up around dogs my whole life and have always loved caring for them. I grew up with Australian Shepherds and Corgis, so I’m very comfortable with different personalities, energy levels, and sizes. I’ve also dog-sat for a variety of dogs, including Pit Bulls, large breeds, small dogs, and very energetic pups. I understand that every dog has their own routine and personality, and I’m happy to adapt to what makes them feel most comfortable. Whether your dog needs lots of exercise and playtime, a calm companion, or simply some extra attention while you’re away, I’m happy to provide it. I really enjoy building a bond with each animal and making sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while they’re with me! I am currently on break from my college courses, yet still am working a part time restaurant job. This makes me free in the mornings and late at night, with a couple of full off days in the mix. I am a responsible caretaker, having experience with highly reliant animals as well as experience in babysitting. I am highly communicative and always open to answering any questions or requests you may have!

About: Hi, I’m Bella! I was born and raised in Sonoma County and live on a ranch with large dogs, horses, and sheep. I’ve been caring for animals since I was 11, from family pets to farm animals, and I have hands-on experience with everything from pigs and sheep to horses and energetic pups. When I’m not working, I love traveling, exploring the outdoors, and spending time with my Jack Russell, Finn. I’d love the chance to help care for your animal with the same love and attention I give to my own. Pet sitting fits naturally into my weekly routine because I have the flexibility to adjust my schedule around each client’s needs. I plan my days to make sure pets get consistent walks, playtime, and attention, and I treat their care as a priority, not an afterthought. Whether it’s stopping by for visits, staying overnight, or spending extra time for companionship, I build my week around providing dependable care and keeping pets happy and comfortable. When staying in your home, I care for your pets in their own comfortable and familiar space. I follow your routines closely, including feeding schedules, medications, and exercise needs, while keeping your home tidy and secure. I make sure pets feel safe, loved, and stress-free, and I provide regular updates so you always know how they’re doing.
