Pet Sitting in Lander

“She did great with the dogs! I loved the pictures she sent!”

About: I’ve never known life without animals! I currently have two dogs and three cats and two ferrets of my own. I can’t wait to show your animals the same amount of care that I show mine! Currently, my schedule is open! so I will have plenty of time to play with your pets! Just send me a message and I can work you into my schedule! I don’t currently offer boarding in my home as my pets love their privacy, but I’m happy to watch your fur babies in their own space!

About: Hi! I’m a huge dog lover and proud dog mom to two very different (and very loved) pups — Pippin and Huckleberry. Huckleberry is my sweet senior little curmudgeon who used to be quite the adventurer but has embraced naps and slower days with age, while Pippin is a total people-person who believes the best place in the world is right next to you (preferably getting hugs!). Having two dogs with completely different personalities — and seeing how those personalities can change over time — has taught me that every pet is unique and deserves care tailored to who they are. Some dogs want playtime and adventure, some want cuddles and reassurance, and some just want someone who understands their routine and quirks — I’m happy to meet them where they are. I’m energetic, friendly, dependable, and genuinely love spending time with animals. I’ve done drop-in visits for friends and understand how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your pets while you’re away. Whether your dog needs potty breaks, companionship, playtime, belly rubs, patience, or just a cozy buddy nearby, I’ll care for them like family. You can count on lots of love, attention, and updates while your pet is in my care. My goal is to make sure both you and your pet feel comfortable, happy, and cared for. I’d love to meet your furry family member and give them the same kindness and attention I give Pippin and Huckleberry! I work from home full-time and have a flexible schedule, which makes it easier for me to fit in drop-in visits and be responsive to your pet’s needs. I don’t take on a large number of clients because I want to make sure the pets I care for get lots of attention, care, and consistency. I’m happy to work a few furry friends into my routine and make sure they feel cared for and loved while you’re away! Since I only offer care in your home, my goal is to help your pet feel safe, comfortable, and relaxed in the environment they already know and love. I like to start with a meet-and-greet so I can get to know your pet, learn their routine, and help them feel comfortable with me before visits begin. Once I get to know them, I’m all about making pets feel loved and cared for! I provide lots of praise, affection, playtime, and snuggles (if they enjoy them). Whether your pet is energetic and playful, shy and cautious, or prefers a slower pace, I’ll meet them where they are. I’ll follow your care instructions closely, keep routines consistent, and make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away.

“Dez has been great! She is on time, reliable, and has been great to have take care of our pups. We look forward to having her watch them again.”

About: Hi, I’m Jess! I grew up surrounded by animals of all sizes–from horses to rats. My family owned and operated Elite Dogs Training & Boarding in West Sacramento, CA, where I officially started on payroll at just eleven years old. From an early age, I was trained to do it all—cleaning kennels, grooming animals, helping with training, and assisting at the front desk with clerical tasks and customer service. That background gave me not only a lifelong love for dogs but also the skills, responsibility, and confidence to handle pets of all sizes, temperaments, and needs. Caring for animals is second nature to me, and I bring both professional experience and genuine affection to every pet I look after. I'm the perfect pet sitter for you because I have over a decade of hands-on experience in a professional dog training and boarding environment and am skilled in safe handling, grooming basics, and kennel/house sanitation. I am comfortable with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. Additionally, I am attentive, reliable, and communicative with pet parents. Your pets will be cared for like family—with safety, comfort, and lots of love as my top priorities. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your furry family members, so I’ll always keep you updated with messages, photos, and details about our time together. I work a normal 8-5 shift but am available the rest of the day as well as weekends! Just let me know what works for you and we will come up with a plan. I focus on making pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved, whether in my home or in a client’s home. I follow each pet’s usual routine as closely as possible—feeding, walks, playtime, and any special instructions—so they feel secure and cared for. In a client’s home, I respect their space and keep everything tidy, while making sure pets get plenty of attention, exercise, and snuggles (if they want them!). My goal is always to provide the same level of care and affection I give to my own pets, so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.

About: I am a huge animal lover with experience dog walking, brushing dogs' teeth, making sure they have their medications on time, and house sitting. I have had dogs and cats of my own as well. I look forward to meeting your pet and keeping them happy and healthy while you're away. <3 I am mostly looking for the occasional opportunity to help out. I have weekend availability and would work best with someone who I looking for a house-sitter or morning walks. I will care for your pets by following your instructions. I have an active lifestyle so if they need walking, great! I also have experience with medications and cleaning.
