Pet Sitting Oban

About: My name is Pauline, I have worked as a dog bather and kennel attendant and I have years of experience in animal handling and care. I have certifications on veterinary pet care and animal biology. I have love and compassion towards animals of all kinds. I’m looking forward to caring for your fur babies. Since leaving my long-term job as a pet bather I want to continue working with animals while I am pursuing my career as an ABA Therapist. Working with dogs and helping pet parents is always my pleasure! I do have one little fur baby of my own and she tags along everywhere with me! Just as I treat my baby with all the love and affection, your babies will get plenty of play time and treats in moderation of course, pets will remain on leash during walks, given regular potty breaks, and exercise as needed. All doggies will be handled safely at all time.

“Melissa was so helpful and was accommodating when a change in schedule happened and I needed her to help with something extra during her visit. She made my girls feel safe and comfortable. Will absolutely hire again.”

“Vanessa was great with our pup. She came as a recommendation when my usual sitter was booked, and it worked really well! Kind, communicative, and I could tell my pup loved her.”

About: I have been surrounded by animals since I was little. I love animals probably more then people at times and I will love your fur babies as if they were my own and take great care of them! I am wide open with availability during the day in case your pets need someone with them for most of the day or if they are fine being alone for certain amount of time. Currently not working full time . I live in an apartment so I won’t be offering to take in any pets as theirs a limit of how many can be staying here. At the moment.

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and recently raised and trained my own dog from puppyhood, so I’m comfortable caring for dogs of all ages and personalities. I work from home, which means your pup will get plenty of attention, walks, playtime, and of course lots of cuddles! I genuinely love being around dogs and spending time outdoors, whether that’s going for a walk, a hike, or just hanging out together. I’ll treat your dog like they’re my own and make sure they feel happy, comfortable, and loved while they’re with me. ☺️ I work from home with a flexible schedule, so I can give your pet lots of attention throughout the day. I’m very active and love to walk, so your dog will get plenty of exercise and outdoor time. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, I do my best to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I stick to their usual routines—like feeding times, walks, and play—and always make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and care. I’m happy to follow any specific instructions to keep your pet happy and stress-free while you’re away.

“Kiley was great! Went above and beyond for our animals, plants, and house. Our dog loved her instantly and we were so happy he was comfortable and cared for while we were gone!”

“Audrianna was a great support for the pups. Good communication, on time and, most importantly, they took a liking to her from the start, highly recommended.”

Michael C.

“Sent me photos of the cats every day even though I was in a poor internet area and mostly out of communication range. The photos showed most of the cats behaving well.”

Jeanette B.

“Upon meeting with her before my trip I could see that she was a perfect fit for my dogs. While I was away, she made sure that they had food and water and even went an extra step for me. I recommend Sunshine to anyone looking for a caring, professional dog sitter, walker, etc.”

Genie A.

About: Yes, I am vaccinated. I've taken care of dogs for a dog rescue (Pepper Foundation, Studio City), know first aid, geriatric care & have had many of my own. I've had pets since a child. I know First Aid & even earned a First AID/CPR certificate. My little Heidi, my minny unwanted dassy originally given to me as a birthday gift, not wanted by her owners cause she had a small bald spot and wasn't perfect, lived until 19 yrs old and my Cat Munchkin lived until 23 yrs old (unusual long age). I've fostered many dogs for the Pepper Foundation who typically rescues unwanted geriatric special needs dogs but also fostered puppies as well. I know all about giving fluids, meds, and have certain med supplies here, just per chance. I've cared for dogs at owner's homes and know about meds if needed. I understand sensitivity and kindness, good care & responsible attention to your best friend(s). I won't let anything happen to your fur baby. Will go by your rules too. I am near various vets, have large yard for play, no pool or danger, covered patio, and possibly another small/med size zen dog to play with. I worked with lots of doggies with and without disabilities all unique needing individualized attention and diets. I've worked with puppies who need lots of love. I've worked with other animals as well: Cats, a squirrel, and birds. I have different rooms, per chance you have a dog that needs a certain type of serenity. I have air conditioning and evap cooling here and heat in the winter. You can't leave a dog outside in very cold temps or very hot temps. You also cannot leave them in a car in the heat. The heat will heat up in one minute in a car. I have security cameras here on the property, in the yard, allover the front of my house as well and an alert system if I need it. I have an MfA in Fine Art and an MA in Illustration. I paint dog portraits as well. I have lots of time to give care and a free-styled 24 hour a day schedule. I study at my own pace at home so I have time to give your pets attention and keep an eye on them. I have a secure fenced yard, outdoor cams, dogs can stay indoors, have doggy door, living room and couch, and no carpet here. I am trustworthy, honest character, caring, concerned with the health of your fur baby, medically aware, know first aid for animals, and know how much your love your pet. I do not believe in hitting a dog or cat "to train them" what so ever and believe you can train a dog best with patience and love. They learn much better when you consider their feelings. They do not like feeling fear or humiliation. I also don't believe in hitting the floor with a newspaper as some do, if a doggy urinates on the floor. That only teaches them fear; you want to teach them they they are loved and it's ok instead. It's somewhat quite here much of the time. I have tennis balls that my dog likes to play with. Dogs need to know they can trust you first of all and that they will get fed, be able to play and relax, and have a place to nap and rest. They need to know they are safe in their environment and no one is going to harm them. Sometimes it takes a little while to earn a dog's trust. I make time for the pets and available. Fits just fine most of the time. Call and book if you are in need. We can set up meet and greet and talk by phone. I usually consider a day care situation about 8 hours long. We play in and in the yard, if your dog likes to play. Your dog can snuggle on the couch or in a doggy bed, whichever your dog prefers. Depending on your rules, your dog will get some treats and you can let me know what type of toys is ok with your dog and which are not.

About: I have always enjoyed caring for other’s pets. Although I don’t have any of my own I never pass up the chance to care for a family member or friend’s pet. I have experience with puppies, senior dogs, big, and small dogs, cats, and even birds! I truly enjoy bonding and creating a comfortable space for whoever’s pet I watch. I am currently working part time and go to school part time so I have the capacity to take care of your pet’s needs. I have a fenced yard and no pets so all my focus will be on your fur baby. I am patient and loving and willing to help with any anxiety issues the pet may have.

About: I have had pets since I was a little girl starting with cats that lived into their 20s and a childhood dog that was my very best friend for over half my life that died at age 14. He was a great dog with lots of energy. I have enjoyed my own pets and other people's pets over the years. I am extremely kind hearted and love all animals and believe they deserve the best life possible! I would love to pet sit any time I am available which is pretty open at the current time. Please Just give me a call or text or email and I will let you know right away if I am available to walk, pet sit, play with, or whatever else you need or want me to do with your little furry one. I love animals and take amazing care of them. I am pretty flexible at the moment except for driving the family around and some part time work. Other than that I can devote my time to caring for your baby. I have a big fenced yard with lots of space and and nice big house too :) I am open for all kinds of pet sitting walks daycare drop ins etc.

About: I feel very confident in my ability to take care of pets after having them for the majority of my life. I have a passion for animals and will have the best time keeping your fur babies company. It will fit into my weekly schedule quite easily as I am a college student that takes primarily online classes. My schedule is very flexible. I already have cats that I take care of. I will adhere to any safety measures that are needed for each pet. Some need crates, some do not. I will respect the wishes of each client and do what is best according to those guidelines.

“Kristine is very professional working with our dog. She was gentle and careing and our dog became very close to her. Kristine was always attentive and on time. She was a blessing when I had an extended business meeting she was able to return and cover for me. In the future I would recommend hiring her again.thank you.”
