“Luca loves his walks with Shellena. She is teaching him good behavior also. Definitely 5 stars!!”

About: I've been a pet sitter for more than a decade. I am thoroughly proficient with puppies and high energy dogs, such as Golden Retrievers. I enjoy looking after and creating connections with pets and their owners alike. I have open availability to care for your pets! I am currently on the job hunt, and I am pursuing pet setting as a side opportunity. I believe that the best care is around the clock supervision, and clear/concise communication with pet owners. I am always keeping the pets under my care stimulated and enjoying our time together.

About: I’m patient, reliable, and take the time to understand each dog’s personality and needs, whether they’re playful, shy, or senior pups who need a slow, gentle walk ⸻ Pet care fits perfectly into my routine because I am a morning person and love starting my day with a walk. Taking care of pets gives me a reason to get outside early, enjoy the fresh air, and help dogs get their exercise to start the day off right. I’m a reliable, patient dog lover who enjoys helping dogs get the exercise, fresh air, and attention they deserve while you’re busy. Whether your pup loves long walks, gentle strolls, or a quick potty break, I am here to help keep your dog happy and healthy.

About: I’ve always had dogs ever since I can remember; we’ve had big and small dogs. I give my dogs food at a timed time, I walk them, I bathe them and I play with them. I take care of my aunts cat I feed her, play with her and I also clean her litter. I am able to give multiple updates of your pet throughout the day to allow you to have a peace of mind, I know I would be worried if my dogs were away from me for too long as well :). I have a big back yard where your little ones can play and run. I am currently doing summer school for Fresno state I am available in the afternoons after 2pm, I’ll have plenty of time afterwards. Since it’s hot right now I typically go on walks at night. I have a fenced yard with plenty of space to run and play with, I have one senior dog who sleeps all day and one puppy who is playful but if needed I also have a crate and a dog fence.

About: I was born into a pet loving family, growing up we always had lots of pets; dogs, cats, bunnies, turtles... the list goes on. I love all animals and I understand how important they are to us humans. Growing up I had 4 little mut rescues and I’ve taken care of them since the day we brought them home. Now, I have a year old lab mix who I’ve trained and loved since he was 9 weeks old. Recently we had someone on Rover board my 17 year old dogs and it inspired me to make this profile and give it a shot. We were nervous to leave our dogs in the hands of someone else so I understand how difficult it can be. I am willing and happy to FaceTime during visiting, send lots of pictures and videos and do anything to put your mind more at ease. I also understand that every animal is different and I’m willing to accommodate. I will never have my dog, any other dog, animals or people around your dog while I’m watching them. I’d love to be your go to pet helper :) I am a student and I’m home full time so I’m flexible. So, I’m willing to work around you and your pets schedule/ regular routine. I am happy to come to your home to help feed, potty breaks, walks, exercise or just check on animals if owners aren’t home for long periods of time. Due to the fact that I have my own dog I can not watch other animals at my house.

About: Hey There Fresno! I’m new to the area and absolutely loving it. Although I’m new to the area I have many years of animal care under my belt. I hope to continue loving and caring for fur babies out here in the Central Valley! I’ve been in the game for about 16 years now and my knowledge ranges from Pet Nutrion/Health - all the way to Dog Training. Ive LA I worked with celebrity pups and hiked up to 8 dogs of all sizes on my own. I was trained on how to properly communicate with a dog so that the dog and myself have a fun and rememberable experience. I’ve worked mainly with dogs but I own my own cat and have cared for many cats in my prior job with Sitter4Paws. Sitter4Paws gave me experience not only working with dogs and cats but with reptiles as well. I’m no stranger to caring for a Bearded Dragon. I am aware of the heat in this area and can walk dogs early and for short amounts of time in shaded areas and I always have water and treats ( if owner allows it of course) on hand! I’m available everyday! After Nov 21st I will be working evenings 2/3 nights a week. I’ll adjust schedule as it comes in. Thanks! As I had mentioned before I have been trained from in Pet Nutrition/Health all the way to behavior. Our pets (Cooper (dachshund mix) and Delilah (diluted Calico cat)are happy healthy babies. Lilah a senior cat of 12 years. I can tell when a pet is dehydrated or if they may be allergic to something. I have years of knowledge and can assure you your fur babies will be in great hands.

About: I had my dog for 12 years, since I was 17 years old. I trained her myself when she was a puppy. As she grew older, we gave her great love and care. My friends and family have also asked me to look after their pets and I’ve had a great time doing it! As I’m currently not working, I don’t have a schedule that I am bound to. So I have plenty of time to play with your beautiful dog! My backyard is fenced so when it’s time to go to the bathroom, your dog can do so freely! They will be taken care of, relaxing, and playing indoors in my home, as I have open space for it!

“Dalia is a lifesaver! I unexpectedly had to work late and Dalia was happy to go and walk my dog at the last minute. She even fed him dinner! I am so grateful to have her as a sitter and Quincy loves her!”

About: I’ve had and have taken care of dogs since I was a child. I am very comfortable taking care of all types of pets. I am home full-time working as a CNA for my father, which enables me to give your pet lots of attention, care, and playtime! I am available every day of the week for any of the services I provide, so your fur baby will never be left alone while in my care. I do own 1 dog that loves having doggy company and making new fur-ends. He is a very friendly Husky that loves getting his energy out with a playmate, so your pup will never be bored! I also have experience caring for sick, injured, and special needs pets. I am very attentive and caring. I’m in the process of signing up for Grad school to complete my Masters degree in Psych/Counseling. I devote my life to caring for others and your pet won’t be any different. My neighborhood is great for walks. It's very quiet and safe here in the Northwest Fresno area. I do walks during the day upon the owner's request. I have a large, fenced yard that I play with the pups in as well, which usually satisfies their exercise requirement. I have tons and I mean TONS of dog toys that my dog is happy to share with playmates! I have designated outside toys in a toy chest and a kiddie pool I fill up for the doggies that love to splash around! When it comes to nap time, I have several dog beds throughout my house and crates with covers if your dog prefers a little privacy. I also allow dogs to sleep on the couch. I have doggy gates and crates throughout my house, so I can separate dogs if needed. If that is needed, I will rotate the dogs during their stay so no one is in the same area all day. I will also take them outside separately of course as well. I always go outside with the pups when it's playtime to ensure their safety. Safety is my #1 concern! Please feel free to ask me any questions and thank you for reading this. I look forward to meeting you and caring for your fur baby!

About: I've taken care of pets about half my life and always clicked with all kinds pets and relied on for many pet needs of the family. I have a pretty open schedule so it fits just fine in my routine and daily life caring for pets of all kind. It works great I tend to the needs and necessary care of the pet or pets rather it be my home or clients. Everything will be taken cared of and pets leaving happy.

About: I have grown up with cats and dogs all my life. Dogs are my favorite thing in the entire world- I love them so much! I recently graduated from Fresno SJVC's Veterinary Assistant program with a 3.42 GPA. I performed my externship hours at Animal Hospital and Dental Clinic in Fresno, CA. Tell your cat I said pss pss pss. ♡ I have open availability and I fully intend on continuing pet sitting part time even after being hired in a vet clinic. My schedule is flexible and I will do my best to accommodate your pets needs. At this time, I am only able to pet sit from the comfort of your pets home. I take safety very seriously and am a stickler for double checking that doors/gates are shut and locked properly. I make sure that every collar/harness/leash is securely attached before taking a pet outside on a walk. I am cautious about pets getting into anything that can make them sick and always make your pets health/safety my top priority!

About: I have 3–4 years of experience working in animal shelters and dog daycare, caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments. My experience includes feeding, cleaning, administering basic medications, and handling high-energy or reactive dogs. I’m confident reading dog body language and prioritizing safety in every situation. I also have experience with dog sitting and drop-in visits, making sure pets stay comfortable, active, and well cared for while their owners are away. I’m available on most weekdays and weekends, including mornings and evenings. I can always accommodate overnight stays, drop-ins, and walks—flexible to fit your dog’s routine. I provide safe, loving care, follow each dog’s routine, give plenty of attention, walks, and play, and make sure they feel happy and comfortable while you’re away.

“Absolutely fantastic. Was on time, super sweet and was able to handle my pittie who pulls on walks”

About: My work with animals started when I was just 10 years old, volunteering at a family friend’s dog daycare. What began as a childhood passion turned into over 15 years of hands-on experience working with animals of all shapes, sizes, breeds, and temperaments! Over the years, I’ve worked at several dog daycares, volunteered with shelters and rescue organizations, completed an internship at a nonprofit feline shelter and spay/neuter clinic, and worked as an Animal Control Officer. I also have experience in animal behavior and training, with a particular interest in behavioral rehabilitation, socialization, and working with dogs who need a little extra patience or understanding. I remain heavily involved in animal rescue, particularly with Belgian Malinois and German Shepherds, and regularly help foster, evaluate, and rehabilitate dogs in need. At home, my husband and I have quite the little zoo! Our family includes five large dogs (four Belgian Malinois and a German Shepherd), five cats, and some exotic pets. Having such a diverse household has given me extensive experience with different species, personalities, care requirements, and the importance of safely managing a multi-animal home. I’m also trained in pet CPR and first aid, have experience with pet nutrition, and offer basic grooming care, including bathing, nail trims, teeth brushing, and ear cleaning. I’m comfortable administering medications, caring for senior animals, and accommodating pets with special needs or behavioral quirks. I understand that every animal is an individual. Some want to spend the day playing, exploring, and staying active, while others would much rather curl up on the couch and enjoy some company. My goal is to make your pets feel as comfortable, safe, and loved as possible while you’re away. Whether that means extra exercise, enrichment activities, maintaining their usual routine, or making room for one more in bed, I’m happy to accommodate! I know how difficult it can be to trust someone else with your animals, especially when they have unique needs. As someone with a houseful of my own, I completely understand. I treat every animal in my care with the same patience, attention, and affection I give my own. A little note for fellow pet professionals: I’m always open to discussing reciprocal pet care arrangements with other experienced, qualified, and trustworthy sitters. Sometimes the best support system is another animal person who understands exactly what goes into caring for our four-legged (and occasionally eight-legged!) family members. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! 🐾 I’m fortunate to work from home while continuing my education and pursuing a career in nursing! I work on-call, after-hours shifts in healthcare, which allows me to remain home for the majority of my workday. Occasionally, I need to step out briefly to see a patient, but these visits are typically short, and pets are rarely left alone for more than a couple of hours. Because of my flexible schedule, I’m able to spend plenty of time with the animals in my care, providing regular potty breaks, exercise, enrichment, playtime, and lots of attention. Caring for animals is already a huge part of my everyday life, so welcoming a few extra furry friends fits naturally into our routine! Safety is always my number one priority when caring for animals! With my background in Animal Control, animal behavior, training, and rescue, I’ve learned just how important it is to provide a safe, structured, and comfortable environment for every pet, regardless of their personality or needs. Our home has a fully fenced yard with plenty of room to run, play, and explore. We also have spare bedrooms, extra crates and kennels, baby gates, and designated spaces that allow us to accommodate different personalities, routines, and comfort levels. Whether your pet enjoys socializing with other animals or would prefer their own quiet space, we’re happy to make accommodations! We’re very intentional about preventing accidents. Food, medications, cleaning supplies, and other potentially hazardous items are kept securely stored to prevent accidental ingestion. Pets are supervised during outdoor activities and interactions with other animals, and we never force introductions or allow unsupervised interactions between resident pets and guests. Our own dogs are crate-trained, which allows us to safely separate everyone whenever necessary. One of the biggest benefits of our household is that someone is almost always home! On the rare occasion we both need to step out, we make sure every animal is safely secured in an appropriate space. I’m also happy to accommodate crate routines, feeding schedules, medications, and any special instructions your pet may have. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I take the same approach while respecting their established routines and environment. I make sure doors and gates are secured, food and medications are handled appropriately, and pets receive the attention, exercise, and supervision they’re accustomed to. I understand that trusting someone with your pets is a big deal. As someone with a houseful of animals myself, I know how much peace of mind comes from knowing they’re safe. My goal is to provide the same level of care, patience, and attention to detail that I expect for my own animals, while keeping you updated with photos and messages along the way!

“Great w my babies. Great communication and service.”

About: I’ve been watching over pets since I was in elementary school. My family has had a variety of dogs that just loved helping with! Every pet is so special and unique, so I like to understand the best way to engage with them as I get to know them! I’m usually available in the mornings and afternoons to care for pets. I am very flexible to work at any time dui g the day. I live by myself in a safe neighborhood and have a pet park at ny place of residence. Plenty of places to walk pets and available to walk at any desired location.

About: I grew up in a big family with a bunch of pets. We had dogs, cats, chickens, even bunnies. I’ve taken care of fur babies up until they were grown 🐕 Your babies are safe with me🐶 I have had way too much free time lately, I thought what better way to occupy it than with a fur baby by my side I live in a gated apartment neighborhood. I can provide frequent potty breaks, walks, as well as time outside if preferred. I do have a safe and minimalist home with everything your fur baby would need. Extra bowls, toys, etc.
