About: I have cared for dogs my whole life as well as many other kinds of animals. I have watched family and friend's pets as well. I am currently a college student-athlete, so in my free time I would like to work in pet care and spend my time around dogs. I will give the pets lots of love and playtime in the clients home as well as take them on as many walks as needed.

About: 🐾Trusted Care in a Loving Home Environment🤍 Animals have always been my greatest passion and purpose. I’ve dedicated my life to improving the welfare of our animal community. I’m well known in the rescue world and have worked alongside many rescues, assisting with T&R programs, Foster Care, Rehoming & Placement Assistance, Behavioral & Physical Rehabilitation, Feral Rehabilitation and more!. I’ve spent many years loving animals of all kinds — from training sea lions 🩶🦭, rehabilitating wildlife & domestic animals, fostering adoptive pets, bottle feeding babies, providing care for seniors & pets with various medical issues, assisting pet parents with hospice care, working with special-needs, behavioral issues & rescue pets who require patience, understanding, and expert care to of course providing professional pet care services. I have been offering pet care services to clients for over a decade. I have extensive experience in animal rehabilitation, including administering medication, performing life-saving procedures, supporting post-surgery recovery, and managing both physical and behavioral issues. Over the years, I’ve cared for countless animals with conditions such as arthritis, allergies, anxiety, collapsing tracheas, and other age-related or chronic illnesses. My background has equipped me with strong knowledge in pet illness prevention, senior care, physical therapy, and behavioral management. My home is very quiet and stress free. There are no children present or any people traffic. I take requests and make accommodations for pet owners, if a dog or cat is better suited as the only animal present during their stay, just let me know! I spend the duration of a booking and focus 100% of my effort entertaining and attending to pets. Your pet will never be unattended for the duration of a booking. We are kennel free, unless it’s part of your pets regular routine. I currently care for multiple rotating rescue animals and understand that every pet has their own story, needs, and comfort level. I approach each one with compassion, respect, and a calm, confident energy that helps them feel secure and loved. I’m also experienced with administering oral and topical medications, wound care, specialized diets, and gentle rehabilitation exercises to help pets heal and thrive.

Previously I've had a pitbull, and currently I have four cats! I also have fostered 12 kittens up to this point. I have already sat for dogs, cats, and bunnies. You can be confident that your pet is in the best hands and will receive top care, as caring for animals is my passion and pleasure:) Pet sitting and taking care of animals is my priority! Right now I only work part time but if anyone needs me to help out I’ll be there!

Whatever you need me to do as far as routine care I will do as well as give them all my love and attention. I can stay as many nights and days as you need!

About: Hiii I’m lucero:))! I’ve been around dogs my whole life and love being around them. I’ve had a corgi before and know my way around an energetic dog if ykyk haha. But overall I love taking care of dogs , I’m someone who deeply cares in the importance of taking care of an animal since I’ve a had a dog before and have two cats of my own right now. My goal is to be able to provide a safe, loved, and comfortable environment for your dog while you’re away. What sets me apart from other sitters is I’m patient and attentive. I take the time to build trust with each dog rather than expect that each dog will trust me instantly. I’ll follow instructions down to every detail and keep you updated! Those are aspects I really value too and will make it a priority for you:). I have open availability and able to provide weekly routines for your pet! I’m available for drop ins and pet sitting! Availability on weekdays and weekends at anytime!:) As a dog and cat owner myself, I understand how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pets with someone. I’ll provide a safe, loving environment, follow their routine, and keep you updated with photos and messages.

About: I have been a professional dog walker and pet sitter for 7 years and have cared for many animals through the course of my life ranging from mice and snakes to mastiffs and great danes. No animal is too big or small for me and your beloved fur babies will be well cared for and spoiled when given permission! I have worked with puppies and kittens as young as 3 months to dogs and cats over 15 years of age. I can offer lots of exercise and engagement or if your fur kid just liked to lounge, we can do that too! Whatever you and your fur kid needs, I'm your guy! I just recently got employed at a company but am waiting until September 1st to get my schedule to see what my availability will look like. In my clients home, whatever my client needs I am willing to provide. If you need oral medication administered, specific dietary instructions for your fur babies, mental or physical engagement or maybe you just don't want your pet to feel alone, I'm your guy! You let me know what you need and I will provide that!

About: Gentle and mindful of your pet’s needs and space. It’s important to build trust first, I will ensure absolute comfort is achieved. Then endless playtime after. I’ve opened my schedule to care for adorable fur babies as I’ve missed having my fur baby. The love and endorphins received when cuddling is much needed. When at a client’s home, I need to learn all house rules and will always leave the home clean and orderly. Pets will have food/ water filled at all times and all foreseeable dangers removed. At my home, safety and comfort are carefully curated.

“Cindia is the best dog walker in the East Bay! Great communication and always on time. Our dog Curry gets really excited when he sees her. He’s aging and has specific ailments that she will pay attention to and make sure she gives us updates post walk. We’ve been using her for over a year now consistently and we appreciate her time! Best in the biz!”

About: I am in love with all types of animals ever since I was a little girl. At the age of 10, I used to walk all the dogs in my neighborhood for money and have been house and dog sitting for my family members and friends. I have had a lot of responsibility caring for dogs and when it comes to walking, feeding, and bathing fur babies, I am the best at it. I love dogs and just want to give them attention and love they deserve! 2024 graduate of UC Davis❤️I love caring for animals and have a very flexible schedule to accommodate all your needs! I am always open for a facetime introduction to make sure you feel comfortable letting me care for your fur babies. I always make sure they have water and are receiving the attention they need. I love to play with the dogs and throw the ball around outside which they usually love! No dog wants to be cooped up in the house all day so lots of outdoor activity is a must! I also adore cats and will keep them active!

About: I helped my parents take care of there friends dogs since I was 8 and they've taught me a lot. Also my mom worked at Petco and worked in animal care and she told me and taught me what she's learned from her experience at work with cats and other animals. I've been currently looking for a job and havent had any luck so I have a lot of free time on my hands weekdays and weekends!! When we went to go sit my parents friends dogs we would feed them every morning and evening and then let them run around in the backyard they had a doggie door in their bedroom so for the most part the dogs had access to the bathroom to go potty and come and go as they please. But when we hung out in the living room with them since there was no access to a doggy door we would let them out around 3-4 times per day we would also walk them in the morning and sunset and feed them either before or after there walk depending on their actions and vibes
