About: With over 10 years of experience caring for and walking dogs, I’m a trusted sitter for friends, neighbors, and colleagues. As a student home for the summer, I’m committed to providing reliable, attentive care for your dog. Pet care fits into my daily and weekly routine pretty naturally. I currently have a part-time job, but I’m available for pet care responsibilities before 10 a.m. and after 1 p.m. most days. I’m good at managing my time, so I can consistently provide attention, walks, feeding, or whatever else is needed during those hours. I enjoy spending time with animals, and caring for them is something I take seriously and genuinely enjoy fitting into my schedule. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I prioritize their comfort, safety, and routine. I make sure to follow the specific instructions the pet owner provides, such as feeding schedules, medication, exercise needs, and any special preferences or restrictions. For dogs, this usually means regular walks, playtime, and plenty of attention to keep them happy and engaged. For cats or smaller pets, I focus on creating a calm environment, ensuring clean litter boxes or cages, and offering affection on their terms. If I’m caring for pets at the client’s home, I treat their space with respect, keeping everything clean and secure, and I provide daily updates to the owner so they know their pet is doing well. Overall, my goal is to maintain a routine that makes pets feel safe and loved, whether they’re in my home or theirs.

About: I’ve always had dogs and cats various animals in my life. I now own a dog, 2 cats and 5 reptiles so giving TLC is not something that is new to me Daily walks with my dog kali is a must also fetch 24/7, playing with the cats and even helping my reptiles shed, I have never had a sick animal. Always paying attention to what the animals are doing, even checking on them if they aren’t doing anything, just in case nothing goes wrong. I’ve always treated animals with respect and love because in a way they are like us human beings.

“Jessie is very professional, kind and caring. We really appreciate her being there with our fur baby when go away and he cannot accompany us.”


“This was our first time using Rover, and Stephanie reassured us from the very beginning with a meet and greet. She sent photos, videos, and updates, so I never felt overly worried (as an already worrisome pet mama). The house was just as we left it and everyone was happy when we returned home. I know they’ll be excited to see her again, too!”


“Jose accepted a last minute request for five days of house sitting for our two dogs who are both very anxious and shy. They’d never been left alone or with anyone else. Jose (and Joey) were amazing. They were patient with our dogs, letting them slowly come out of their shells, sent regular pictures and check-ins, keeping us updated on how things were going. And they went above and beyond, making sure Maui and Rain were alone as little as possible, giving them lots of attention and playtime. They took great care of the house too. We arrived home tonight to happy, healthy pups, who show no signs of stress despite being away for five days.”

About: I have had pets since I can remember and I have loved every single one of them. I currently have 3 cats 2 of which are around 12 and the 3rd is around 3. As well as 2 dogs who are 8 and 4. They are my babies and I treat them with nothing but love and care. I have also fostered 4 kittens at different times, all finding loving and caring homes I am currently only working one day a week so I have plenty of time to be there for all your animals needs, I have 3 cats, 2 dogs, and a snake of my own that I take care of daily as well as past foster kittens. With my own pets I have had to administer medication and supplements so I am well aware of the responsibilities that comes with those needs. In my home my dogs are indoor and get feed 3 times a day everyday. My cats are indoor/outdoor and come in at night and are trained to do so. I know how to get a cat to come in if they are being a little stubborn as well as getting dogs to go out to use the restroom as needed.

Whatever you need feel free to contact me at anytime that is feasible to you. Hope to develop a bond with the owners and the pets as well.

“Destinee is gr8! We will definitely call her again. The decision-maker is Sweetie and she loves Destinee!”

“Jesse was kind, organized, communicated with us while we were away...and the dogs took to him immediately. He has a great energy and we hope to be able to have him watch our girls again! Zero complaints. All praise.”



“As always having Coralie stay at our house and watch our pets is one of the best decisions we could make while traveling. Coralie treats your pets and home like her own, taking excellent care of both. She sent frequent picture and video updates of our pets and they got plenty of exercise from walks and runs to hikes! Our house was clean and in order when we returned and our pets were happy and in great health. We so lucky to have found Coralie for our pet sitting needs!”


About: I’ve spent my life surrounded by animals. I currently live with 3 amazing pets and have cared for 4 others who’ve passed over the years. I understand the full range of pet needs, from energetic puppies to senior pets who require a gentler touch. I’ve personally cared for: • Large breeds like pit bulls and huskies • Tiny seniors with medication routines • Cats of all temperaments, from shy to bold • Multiple pets at once, including managing introductions, feeding schedules, and comfort needs I bring a calm, confident energy that helps animals feel at ease. Whether your pet loves to cuddle, needs extra patience, or just wants their belly rubbed exactly 3 times and no more, I’m here for it. My goal is to make your pet feel loved, safe, and totally at home while you’re away. Pet care is my daily routine. I already spend each day caring for my own pets — feeding, walking, playtime, cleaning, cuddling, and making sure everyone feels safe and loved. Adding your pet into that rhythm is a natural fit. Because I have a flexible work schedule, I’m able to give pets regular attention throughout the day, not just quick check-ins. I’m used to balancing multiple pets and making sure each one gets individual care, whether it’s exercise, meds, or just sitting together in a calm space. When your pet stays with me or I visit them, they become part of a routine built around comfort, care, and presence. My home is calm, pet-friendly, and fully set up to keep animals safe and comfortable. I only take in pets I know I can give proper attention to, no overcrowding, no chaos. Every animal gets their own space if needed, and introductions are done slowly and carefully. If your dog is crate-trained and you’d like them to use their crate here, I’m happy to accommodate that. I see crates as a safe, cozy space for pets who are used to them, never as punishment. If your pet isn’t crate-trained, that’s totally fine too. I’ll work with whatever helps them feel most secure. I keep all food, meds, and cleaning supplies stored securely. I never leave pets unsupervised in the yard or near open doors. I follow your instructions closely and communicate openly so you always know how your pet is doing. Most of all, I treat every pet like one of my own, with respect, patience, and care. Whether your pet is shy, playful, anxious, or just needs a quiet spot to chill, I make sure they feel safe, loved, and at home.

About: Throughout high school and college, I often helped out friends and neighbors by dog sitting when they couldn't take their pets on trips. I’m a huge dog lover, and I really adore all kinds of pets. Over the years, I've earned the complete trust of my friends and neighbors when it comes to looking after their pets and homes. They know they can count on me to provide loving care and ensure everything is safe and sound while they're away. I am currently working at a mental health facility. I work 3:00 pm Sun-Wed. Although I am full time I am always happy to lean a hand. Free on Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays as well. I am also willing to Sundays off! I was born and raised in the Central Valley. Growing up on a farm made me exposed to many animals and I grew immense love for them. I had a wonderful time taking care of my beloved pets: a Labrador, German Shepherd, Cocker Spaniel, and a Chihuahua. They were all my babies, and I also had a horse that I adored. I'm a huge animal lover, and I miss them every day now that they are living with my older sister.

Adam A.
“I was nervous to leave my senior cat while I went on a work trip. she’s picky, doesn’t like strangers, and needs meds twice a day. But Adam was amazing. He took the time to ask detailed questions beforehand, followed her routine perfectly, and even sent me videos of her. When I got home, the litter box was spotless, her meds were on track, and she seemed totally relaxed. It’s rare to find someone who really gets cats, but Adam does. He’s patient, calm, and genuinely tuned into what animals need. I wouldn’t trust anyone else with her now”

Her experience around animals has given her the appropriate knowledge so she can provide the highest standard of care, making her a trustworthy choice for any pet owner. Beyond her technical skills, Alondra exhibits a genuine passion for animals that shines through in every interaction.
