House Sitting Hidden Valley Lake

About: My husband and I have had animals in our lives for as long as we can remember. We share our home with cats and a dog, volunteer with local humane societies, and have experience fostering and caring for kittens. We’re also comfortable with senior pets and pets with medical needs after reviewing their routines with you. We serve the Hidden Valley Lake area only. We can care for pets in your home, or welcome them into ours if they’re comfortable around cats. We require a meet and greet before any booking so everyone, including our own pets, feels comfortable. While your pet is with us, we’ll follow their routine and treat them like family. My husband is retired, and I work from home, so we can give pets attention throughout the day. We plan care around each pet’s needs, whether that means visits in your home or a stay in ours. We start with a meet and greet to learn your pet’s routine and decide together whether they’d be most comfortable in your home or ours. Cats are our specialty, and we also enjoy caring for dogs who are comfortable with everyday walks and visits. We don’t offer dog training or behavior modification. A stay in our home depends on your pet being comfortable around our six cats and large dog. We have a fully fenced side yard and a fenced backyard, and visiting pets are always supervised outdoors.

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life, I’ve loved learning how each dog is different and what kind of care they need. I care for my own dog and family friends dogs as well. I am currently unemployed, while doing online schooling full time, I only have zoom meetings Monday and Wednesday from 1:30-2:50 but I am available anytime! I make sure to follow all the owner’s instructions carefully, provide fresh water and food on time, give lots of attention and play, and keep their home clean and safe for the pets. I also watch for any signs of discomfort or health issues and make sure the pets feel comfortable and loved while their owners are away.

“Susan did a wonderful job taking care of our dogs and cats for the weekend. They were well cared for and well loved, as her adorable pictures showed. She was extremely trustworthy, a great communicator and went above and beyond caring for the animals and our house. We are so lucky to have found her and can’t wait to have her come again!”

About: I’ve taken early retirement and have a lot of time in my hands. I have been pet sitting for a client with four dogs, a chihuahua , two frenchies and occasionally a German shepherd in their home. I cook their food, and I am a great housecleaner so your space will be nice when you come back home. I will take loving care of your cat or dog, only one pet at a time unless they are from the same household. I do not have any pets of my own at this time, which allows me flexibility in my schedule to be able to pet sit. I look forward to taking care of your fur baby. I took early retirement, so I will be home with the pet all day and night for whatever is needed. I have experience with senior dogs and frenchies. I am clean and considerate and love to spend time with animals. Your pet will receive personal attention and care with affection. I look forward to taking care of your pets.

“Laura took amazing care of our elderly pug! His health issues makes him not the easiest to care for but she caught on to his needs quickly! Bubba enjoyed his time with her! We came home to a super clean house and happy pup! Couldn’t ask for anything more! Will definitely book again and highly recommend Laura for your next booking!”

About: I’ve spent several years caring for pets as part of my work as a nanny and personal assistant, so I’m very used to routines, communication, and handling animals with patience. I’ve cared for high-energy breeds like German Shepherds and Dobermans, as well as small dogs, seniors, and puppies. What sets me apart is that I’m calm, dependable, and observant, I notice changes in behavior, appetite, or energy right away. I’m comfortable with crate routines, structured walks, feeding schedules, basic commands, and keeping dogs mentally stimulated. I’ve also handled senior-dog needs like slow walks, medication reminders, and gentle mobility support. When I house-sit, I treat your home with the same respect I treat my own. I keep things tidy, follow your instructions carefully, and send regular updates and photos so you always feel connected and confident your pup is happy and safe. Whether your dog needs long walks, quiet company, playtime, or extra patience, I adapt to each pet’s personality to help them feel secure while you’re away. I’m currently in nursing school remotely, which means my schedule is very flexible and I’m home the majority of the day. When I’m house-sitting, your dog gets consistent company, supervision, and attention, I’m not someone who will be in and out all day. If I ever need to step out for a quick errand or class requirement, I always communicate ahead of time. I believe in being respectful of your home and completely transparent about my schedule, so you’ll always know what to expect. Because my program is online, I’m able to structure my study time around your pet’s needs: walks, playtime, feeding, medication, and potty breaks. This setup lets me provide calm, consistent care while keeping your dog’s routine as stable and stress-free as possible. When I care for pets in your home, I keep everything calm, safe, and consistent. I follow your dog’s routine exactly: feeding schedule, walk times, crate rules, and any house guidelines you prefer. I’m especially careful with doors, gates, and outdoor time, and I handle strong or high-energy dogs confidently. I keep your home tidy, pick up after pets right away, and treat your space with respect. Throughout the stay, I send regular updates and photos so you always feel connected and comfortable while you’re away. My goal is to make your dog feel secure in their familiar environment and give you complete peace of mind.

“Ashlee was the BEST! She took great care of my dog and house, plus she sent me so many cute pictures while I was gone. Both the house and my pup were in great shape when I returned. I will definitely talk with Ashlee again.”

I have most recently been traveling as a house and pet sitter on Trusted Housesitters and have many wonderful reviews. I have fallen in love with the animals and the freedom it has given me. I have decided I would like to do this professionally and have just signed up with Rover. Looking forward to meeting you.

About: When I wasn’t with my horse or loving on my own pets, I was the go-to pet sitter for family and the neighborhood dog walker for anyone who needed an extra hand. I’ve had animals in my life for as long as I can remember—including my sweet puppy Blossom, who was in a wheelchair and had hydrocephalus (water on the brain). She needed round-the-clock care, and I was there for every moment, so I understand how much love, patience, and attention pets deserve—especially those with special needs. I’m caring, loving, and endlessly patient, and I promise to treat your fur baby like my own. Whether it’s a walk, a cuddle, or a good old-fashioned game of fetch, I look forward to being the reason your pet can “smile” during the day… even if I have to make silly faces or use my best squeaky-toy voice to do it! Lol. I already spend part of my week walking dogs for a friend, and it’s one of my favorite parts of the day. Since I work from home, I’ve got plenty of flexibility for walks, hikes, playtime, and all the tail wags and happy zoomies your pet needs! Let me know what YOU prefer for your fur baby. (: I’m more than happy—and honestly, I prefer—to come to you! It gives me a nice break during my workday and lets me spend quality time with your pet in their own space. I’m great at reading animal behavior and body language, and I have experience caring for pets with special needs (I had my own), as well as handling aggressive behavior, food aggression, nervousness (I’ve fostered pups with these challenges), training, crate training, and more. Just let me know what your pet needs, and I’ll adapt to make them comfortable and happy!

“Amanda did a great job with our pets - a dog and 2 cats that she had never met. Our scheduled sitter had an emergency and needed to leave. Amanda stepped in on Christmas Eve and took care of everyone for the remaining days of our trip. We’re grateful for the last minute availability and would use her again.”
