Pet Sitting Lakeridge Oaks

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and have had a soft spot for animals for as long as I can remember. I’ve joked that animals understand me better than people do, so being around them feels pretty natural to me. I have an 11-year-old Labrador with medical needs, which has taught me a lot about being patient, paying attention to the little things, and giving senior pets the extra care they need. I’ve also enjoyed walking and caring for the dogs of friends and neighbors over the years. I’m a calm and gentle person, and I think pets pick up on that. My goal is for your pet to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away, and for you to have that same peace of mind. I’ll take the time to learn their routine, get to know their personality, and give them plenty of attention and affection. I’ll also send you updates and photos during visits so you know how they’re doing and can feel a little more connected while you’re away. My schedule is flexible, which gives me plenty of time to spend with your pups and give them the attention they deserve. I’m available for dog walks and drop-in visits from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., seven days a week. I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine and take my time with each visit rather than rushing from one appointment to the next. I enjoy having a flexible schedule because it allows me to make pet care a priority and be there when you need me. Whether your pup needs a good walk, some playtime, or a little extra company during the day, I’m happy to be there. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my first priority. Before a visit, I’ll take the time to learn about their routine, personality, and anything I should be aware of, including medications, feeding instructions, or behaviors. When I’m in your home, I’ll treat it with the same care and respect I would my own. I’ll make sure doors and gates are secure, follow your instructions closely, and keep an eye out for anything that seems unusual. I’m also happy to send updates and photos during each visit so you know your pet is safe, happy, and getting the care they need.

“Madison was amazing! When she first met Benji Muffin she bonded right away. She was caring, compassionate and careful with my older beloved dog. She was respectful in my home and I trust her completely. I enjoyed receiving her pictures and it put me at ease during my vacation. I could tell right away that she really enjoyed what she was doing. I think Benji Muffin misses her.”

About: I owned a dog camp for 10 years in the mountains outside of Boulder, CO. My daughter and I want to share our love and knowledge of animals with others. We have lots of experience and would love to spend time with your furry friends. My staff and I also worked extensively with Tenderfoot Trainers in Boulder, CO, and I have experience with a variety of dog personalities. We have a very flexible schedule and work from home. I have a small import business and work from home. My daughter homeschools and has various classes and lessons throughout the week. We can provide care (walks, food, snuggling, and potty breaks) in the early morning, at lunchtime, and/or dinner time as well as do sleepovers. We provide services housesitting, dog-walking, feeding, and giving potty breaks. Both my daughter and I love animals and we treat all pets as if they were our own. We understand how challenging it is to be away from your furry family but we will give lots of love, send lots of pics and do our best to form a lasting and loving relationship with your dog while you're away. We hope that your pup has as much fun as you while on vacation!

“Justin is easy to work with and a great communicator. We appreciated that he got back to us right away to confirm his availability and provided twice daily updates on our dogs. We won’t hesitate to recommend him to our friends and neighbors. Thanks Justin!”

About: Growing up I wasn’t allowed to have a pet of my own so I would always watch other peoples pets while they were away on vacation. In 5th grade I even created my own pet sitting business called “Parkway Pet Companions,” starting my pet sitting adventures. While attending SBCC I was a pet sitter for Rover for a year gaining tons of experience in overnight care and walks. Two years ago I adopted a 8 week old Kitten and have been in love with cats ever since! He has trained me very well, equipping me with the necessary skills required for the best scratches and toy enrichment time. I recently moved back to Folsom after graduating while I partake in the rats race called job hunting. Unemployed, I have lots of free time I’d love to fill by taking care of your pets. I’m currently unemployed, spending my days researching jobs and filling out applications. I have lots a free time I’d love to spend taking care of your pet! My services include dog walking and caring for pets at their home. I am very respectful of the rules of the house I’m entering. My intention is to give your fur baby the love, care, and attention they deserve. My goal is always to return your pet happy and excited.

“Amy has watched my two cats several times now, and she always does a great job. She was flexible with scheduling when I needed to extend a trip, and she even got my picky, shy cat to play with her!”

About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with five years of hands-on pet-care experience and four cats of my own.

I can also trim cats’ nails and brush both cats’ and dogs’ teeth. I’m patient with nervous animals and understand that every pet needs time to feel safe and comfortable with someone new.

“I was leaving my 2 kitties alone with a stranger for the first time ever and was super nervous and worried. I have one kitty who is super sensitive to stress and changes and 1 kitty who gets into everything. From the moment of just communicating with Travis, I had a good feeling. Then meeting him, both my partner and I felt he was the one for the job. We are so very happy to work with him. The 4 night trip away, I was actually able to NOT worry about my babies after about the first day, because Travis made me feel like they were well taken care of and safe. Highly recommend. We will be using him in the future.”

“Shannon took such good care of our dog while we were away on vacation! She checked on him 3 times a day and always at the scheduled time. She walked him 2-3 times a day, sent us numerous pictures, and frequently kept us updated on how he was doing. She made us feel confident that he was being well taken care of and given lots of attention, which allowed us to enjoy our vacation without worrying. We would definitely have Shannon watch him again the next time we go out of town!”
