Pet Sitting La Sierra Acres

About: I worked at a private kennel facility and handled up to 10 large breed dogs at any given time. The breeds I'm most familiar with are Bullmastiffs, German Shepherds, Akitas, Huskeys, Terriers, and Chihuahuas. I've helped bottle raise 3 litters of puppies totaling 19 puppies, so I'm well versed in puppy care and the specific needs they have. I'm the main caregiver to my aging parents and I make their lives easy enough to still remain semi-independent. My schedule is mostly open save for doctor's appointments, so I have ample time to care for other's pets. I have a crate trained dog that has free roam of the house when I'm home. I try to incorporate enrichment activities and mental stimulation if I cannot take my dog on a walk or if the weather won't allow extended yard time.

About: I’ve always loved animals and treat every pet like family. I have experience caring for dogs of all ages, including two senior dogs who lived happy lives until 14 years old. I’m patient, attentive, and always make time to give pets the love, care, exercise, and comfort they need. Whether it’s walks, feeding, playtime, or simply keeping them company, I truly enjoy being around animals and making them feel safe and cared for. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I always make time for walks, feeding, playtime, cuddles, and giving pets attention throughout the day. I’m reliable, flexible, and committed to making sure pets feel comfortable, happy, and loved while they’re in my care. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I create a calm, loving, and clean environment where pets can feel safe and relaxed. I pay close attention to routines, behavior, and special needs, especially for senior pets who may need extra patience and care. I treat every animal like my own and make sure they receive plenty of supervision, affection, and attention at all times.

About: I was born and raised in Turkey and I was a shepherd in a small town! I love taking care of animals it has always been my passion! I have a flexible schedule and I will make sure your pet feels comfortable at all times! I know how difficult it is to leave your fur family while you are away! I will be giving your pet the enrichment and love that it deserves! My priority is your pets safety and comfort! My home is completely pet proof and I will make sure they get plenty of enrichment and that they feel comfortable in their new environment!

About: I volunteered at the Riverside County Animal shelter for two years before I became consumed with work. There I learned pet behaviors and how to read their body language. During my time at the shelter, I worked with anxious, high energy, and senior dogs. At home I have a GSD, ACD, and two smaller dogs. I have worked through food aggression during feeding time and anxiety around water while bathing my GSD. I’ve also handled people-reactivity while walking my ACD. I have also mastered administering oral medication in both pill and liquid form. I work part time typically in the mornings and sometimes in the afternoon noon. Although I do not have a set work schedule, I will still plenty of time caring for your pets. I have a fenced yard with four other pet friendly dogs. I also have a smaller section to keep your pet(s) separated if needed. If you have a smaller pet, I can also keep them indoors. You can trust me to keep your home clean and secured while I take care of your pets. I will follow any instructions you give me and go above and beyond with your pets. If you have any smaller pets in the home that need caring while I am caring for your pet (such as a snake or lizard), I can care for them too!

About: I’ve taken care of pets since 2020, ranging from chihuahuas to large golden doodles! I love the energetic pups as well as the calm ones, they’re all extremely sweet babies. I’m currently post-grad searching for jobs so my schedule is pretty open! Ideally morning and nighttime routines would be best to create a balanced schedule. I love to make your pets feel comfortable and happy, whether they like to be cuddle or left alone, I do anything in my power to make sure their tails stay wagging.

“Aimee is such a sweetheart and I felt SO comfortable with her coming to my home while I was away on a vacation. She sent me updates while she visited and made me miss my babies, but like I said I feel so confident with her being the person taking care of my pets. THANK you for everything Aimee!”

I'm off at 2pm, from there on i spend my time training furry friends . I have a fenced house! 2 pets that will accompany your pet. I train them from behaviors to attention to making sure they are safe

About: Dogs have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. In fact, I took my very first steps with a Rottweiler named Oso by my side! Growing up around these large breeds has helped me plenty with hands-on experience and confidence with dogs of all sizes and personalities. Over the years, I’ve cared for and loved several dogs, including a German Shepherd, Siberian Husky, and currently a Malinois mix and two husky mixes. I’m very familiar with the energy, exercise needs, and unique personalities that come with active breeds. While I have lots of experience with larger dogs, I absolutely adore small dogs too. I want make sure that every dog feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’m patient with shy or timid pups and always take the time to earn their trust at their own pace. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, running around, or simply having a calm companion nearby, I’m their new best friend ☺️. If you have a high-energy dog that needs to burn off some extra energy, I’m more than ready to help tire them out with plenty of exercise and fun 🤩 ! ❗️I’m available all weekdays and holidays! Although, i’m in college, studying Administration of Justice, and depends on my schedule for the semester since classes may vary on my availability. but it doesn’t mean i won’t make time for your babies! I do prefer for your animals to be treated at your home, because my dogs can be protective of our home and won’t want to put any animals in harms way.

“Eli was great! I needed someone to come by daily to feed my fur babies while I was on vacation & her response time was quick. She was right on time each day to feed my dogs & cat, she spent extra time with them giving them some love & she even picked up after them! Eli was very sweet, caring & professional & I would highly recommend her.”

“Kae took care of my dog Koko for two days, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. She came to my house to check on Koko, and sent me many pictures during her visits. Koko absolutely loved her and looked so happy with her! Kae was super communicative and kept me updated, which I really appreciated. She was also incredibly nice and clearly great with pets. I highly recommend her services to anyone in need of a reliable and caring pet sitter!”

About: Hello fellow fur parents! Leaving your pets with a stranger is definitely unnerving and understandable. As a fellow dog owner I love helping others feel at ease while away and confident that their little ones are in good hands. We currently own a Boston terrier and Swiss Shepherd, both are as sweet as pie and get along with any pup. During their stay, your pup will get plenty of exercise and TLC. I love puppy cuddles and spoiling fur babies. We have plenty of toys and room to play so your little ones will be comfortable and happy. I look forward to meeting you! I work from home and have a very flexible schedule to easily fit doggy care into my routine. I am a long time dog sitter/walker love taking care of animals. I have a fenced backyard to keep your pup safe. We typically visit the dog park if it’s open or go for a 1-1.5 hour walk, depending on your pup’s energy level. I have a crate available, dog beds, doggy gate, and a doggy door for all dog sizes. I only provide treats if given permission, otherwise I will adhere to any diet restrictions.

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is that, I have an infinite amount of patience with pets, I often come off overly professional as far as training within the skills I have, lastly, why dog, puppy, cat, or kitten doesn’t need more love in their life? I don’t have any schedule restrictions. I have an entirely open schedule so feel free to book whenever you need. Home most of the time. How I care for pets in my clients home is making sure some type of physical activity occurs to ensure excellent physical health, as well as proper meal times (meal preps). Letting the clients pet do at least something that they find joy in (of course, something safe and harmless).

“Paris is a great choice for pet sitting. I have two cats and two dogs and she took care of all of them with much care. All the fur babies loved her and I will definitely use her again !! Thanks Paris”

About: About Me Hi, I’m Marissa, owner of Shining Light’s K9 Services! I have extensive experience caring for dogs of all breeds, ages, and temperaments—including those with aggression, reactivity, or other behavioral challenges. Over the years, I’ve worked in multiple dog hotels/doggy daycares, in pet grooming, and as a freelance trainer, giving me a well-rounded understanding of canine care and behavior. I specialize in creating a safe, structured, and comfortable environment for every dog I work with. Whether your pet needs a calm walk, a high-energy run, targeted training, or simply loving companionship, I tailor my approach to their unique needs. Administering medications is never an issue, and I pride myself on excellent communication so you can feel at ease while you’re away. Your dog’s safety, happiness, and progress are always my top priorities. With me, your fur baby will be in experienced, loving, and capable hands. Pet care is my full-time job and passion. I run my own business, Shining Light’s K9 Services, from home, so caring for dogs is part of my daily routine from morning to night. I structure my day around feeding schedules, walks, playtime, training sessions, and any special care each pet needs. Because this is my full-time work, I have the flexibility to give your pet consistent attention, exercise, and companionship throughout the day. Your pet’s safety and comfort always come first. In my home, I offer multiple sleeping options so your dog feels at ease—whether that’s a cozy crate, a comfy dog bed in my living room, or even in my bedroom if that’s what they’re used to. I maintain a clean, secure environment, with constant supervision and safe spaces for rest or play. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow your instructions exactly to keep their routine consistent and stress-free. I make sure food, water, and medications are given on schedule, and I always take time for walks, play, and affection. Whether at my home or yours, my goal is to ensure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away.

About: I have been taking care of pets since I was little and I currently have 2 cats that I have been caring for the past 8 years now and a puppy that belongs to my sister that I look after a lot to help her out sometimes when she’s working and so I think that I’m definitely a great person to rely on for these kinds of things. I’m currently working part time as I am a third year college student who’s major is fine and applied arts and goes to school currently but can take care of your pets anytime of the day all week including weekends and holidays. I care for them by having a feeding schedule for them, cleaning up after them, bathing them, taking them on walks and just playing with them through out the day.
