“Peggy is wonderful! Mimi (my cat) felt really comfortable with her fairly quickly. And that means so much to me! She was really communicative with giving me updates on Mimi and anything concerning regarding her health issues or behaviors. Peggy was also really friendly and professional. I highly recommend her to all pet owners, and will definitely have her care for Mimi again!”


“Hillary did an amazing job with our two kitties! She kept us very up to date with lots of photos, which is always appreciated. Our vacation was much less stressful knowing that our boys were in good hands. Will absolutely book with Hillary again!!”


About: Volunteered at shelters and vets for over two decades. Specialize in small to medium pets and care of all kinds to include baths and meds if needed. I currently have a pug, American eskimo, and a Siamese cat. I'm currently retired, working part time at Oxnard School District, and an empty-nester, so I can provide lots of love to fur kids of all sizes and temperaments. I'm very flexible! I ensure all safety measures are in place, priorities provided for any needed medications and daily routines. Lots of attention and exercise without distractions to ensure a safe reunion with their family.


About: 15 years of loving care for pets of all ages and needs. Walks, play, cuddles, and peace of mind — I treat your pets like family. My work schedule is pretty flexible (I work from home), so I have plenty of time to prioritize pet care into my daily or weekly routine. Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or yours, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I stick to their normal routine so things feel familiar — from feeding times to favorite toys and walks. Outside, I always use secure leashes or fenced spaces, and indoors I keep their area clean, cozy, and hazard-free. My goal is for them to feel happy, cared for, and right at home until you’re back

About: P.S. My name is Isaiah Hunter Slagboom. My friend, Ethan S. calls me Hunter instead of Isaiah because we have another friend named Isaiah! So yeah just wanted to clarify that with you 😃 Pet Care Experience I’ve been caring for dogs and cats for years, always with deep respect for their unique personalities, needs, and energy. Whether it’s a playful high-energy pup 🐾, a shy senior who needs patience and calm, or a curious cat who thrives on consistency—I adapt to their rhythm, not the other way around My experience includes: • Daily dog walking with positive behavior correction • Overnight care and comfort routines • Basic training reinforcement • Support for senior pets and anxiety-prone animals I believe every pet deserves to feel safe, loved, and understood—not just watched ❤️ ⸻ 💼 WHAT SETS ME APART Pet care isn’t a side hustle—it’s a lifestyle and long-term mission. I approach this work with the precision, enthusiasm, and accountability of a high-level professional What makes me different? • I build trust not just with pet parents—but with the animals themselves • I read body language, adjust energy, and treat every visit like the most important one of the day • I hold myself to a top-tier standard: clear communication, on-time care, full attention And I’m not done growing. 🙂↔️ I’m currently pursuing certifications in: • Dog & cat behavior • Canine cognition • Animal training science I combine that knowledge with hands-on experience to give your pet a premium care experience—whether it’s a walk, a visit, or an extended stay! Because your pet deserves nothing less than the best😀 I work part time from 7 AM to 11 AM on weekdays, so I’m fully available from 12 PM to 8PM to give your pets plenty of attention, playtime, and care 😀 On weekends, I’m available from 10AM to 11:30PM, making sure your pets get consistent companionship and exercise even when your schedule is busy And lastly, I prioritize quality time and routine, so your pets feel happy and secure every visit In my home, safety is always my first priority. I live with a friendly, well-cared-for cat, and I make sure the environment is calm, clean, and free of anything that could stress or harm your pet The apartment door stays closed at all times, and I keep a close eye on the space—especially when pets are transitioning or curious. I regularly check for anything out of place and make sure your pet feels secure and relaxed whether they’re napping, exploring, or just hanging out When I care for pets in a client’s home, I always respect the rules of the home and prioritize safety, routine, and cleanliness. Whether it’s locking gates, following feeding routines, or monitoring behavior, I treat your space and your pet with full focus and responsibility

About: With a degree in Animal Sciences and as a veterinary assistant, I’ve worked at rescues, clinics, and volunteered at shelters, providing compassionate care to animals in various environments. Pet care is a key part of my daily routine. I care for my two cats, turtle, and rabbit, ensuring they get proper food, attention, and exercise. In my own home and my clients’ homes, I prioritize safety, comfort, and attention to each pet’s individual needs. For cats, I maintain a calm, stress-free environment, ensuring they have plenty of space, food, and litter care. With rabbits and turtles, I make sure their habitats are clean, safe, and have the appropriate temperature and nutrition. I keep a consistent routine for all pets, providing plenty of affection and playtime, while also respecting each pet’s personality and preferences.

“Ali was great! Our cat seemed to warm up to her pretty quick. Great communication on and off the app. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter. Thanks again, we plan on booking with her again this Summer.”


“Michael was exactly who we needed to watch our sweet senior kitty. He sent us daily pics and updates, let us know how she did on meds and litterbox. Very kind and compassionate. We'd welcome him back any time and recommend with flying colors.”


About: I've had cats my whole life and only recently gotten a dog in the last 5 years but that 1 dog has resulted in 2 years working at a doggy daycare, 3 additional dogs in our household and with 1 of those pups being differently-abled and using a wheelchair! I do work full-time during the week but I'd absolutely love to help entertain and walk your pup on the weekend in case you have plans or I'd love to come sit with your kitty cat in case you they need some company! I prefer to come take care of your pets in your home environment to minimize the stress that they may feel - keeping your pet in their home environment will result in much better pet sitting for your baby's stress levels and I love that!

About: I enjoy playing and having the company of dogs and cats. I have pets of my own. I want to make your pets happy and well taken care of. I spend alot of time with my dog. I walk him 3 times per day sometimes. I take my dog on car rides because he enjoys them. My dog and my cat are in a home where they are very much loved. I like to give them alot of attention and affection.

About: What sets me apart? I bring over 10 years of experience, a heart full of love for animals, and a calm, dependable energy that pets (and their humans!) appreciate. I’ve walked shelter pups of all shapes and sizes, cared for senior dogs who need extra TLC, and helped with playful puppies learning the ropes. Whether your dog wants cuddles, playtime, or a relaxing stroll, I’ve got it covered. I am like a fun aunt they can’t wait to see again! :) Pet care fits naturally into my routine! I work in a school setting, so I have a more flexible schedule, especially during the summer, when I have plenty of time to dedicate to your pets. I also have two dogs of my own who are very loved and well cared for, so giving animals attention, affection, and consistency is part of my everyday life. Your pets will be treated like family! I’m home with my pets most of the day, so they enjoy a consistent routine filled with care and attention. We start with morning potty breaks, followed by walks, playtime, and plenty of affection throughout the day. Meals and treats are given on schedule, and depending on the day, we may go on an extra walk or just relax together at home. Whether in my home or yours, I make sure every pet feels safe, loved, and part of the family.

About: I work at a doggy daycare where I’m in charge of watching, playing, feeding, and bathing, many dogs. I have learned to act quick on my feet while still being proactive. I am a student and a part time worker but my schedule is still pretty flexible. I like to hang around dogs whenever I can. *If I don’t answer right away I’m probably working but I’m still available unless I text otherwise! I have a barking dog of my own so he is a vocal player but does not bite. If needed he can be separated from your dog so I am able to focus on your dogs needs and wants. I am easily trained so I can work around your dogs needs. I’m currently a student with a flexible schedule but I still have a dog of my own and I work at a doggy daycare. So I practically see dogs everyday and care for them. I am glued to them 24/7. I like to feel secure so I am often just playing, resting, stimulating them the whole time I’m in the clients home or at my home.

About: I’ve been caring for animals as small as hamsters to animals as big as Arabian horses practically my whole life. I dog sit my moms Frenchie, Siberian Husky, and two cats any time she is out of town whether I go to her house or she brings them to me. I’m passionate about making sure my animals live their best life and will care for yours like they’re my own. I have two dogs (Chihuahua and an English Bulldog) both are very friendly with other animals and are both potty trained, as well as three reptiles. I can assist in basic things like potty training and teaching dogs how to sit. I take my dogs for daily walks and play with them in the yard so they get plenty of exercise! I can follow diets and complicated meal prepping and any other accommodations your animal may require. If medicated, I will make sure they’re given whatever they need whenever and however. I’m up for any task and can’t wait to meet new cats and dogs! I’m available 24/7. I am currently looking for a job so i have all the time in the world to tend to your pets :) I love them like they’re my own! All animals should be treated with patience and love. Even the most aggressive or scared dogs can learn to be loving and comfortable with you if you just have patience and continuously care for them. The animals in my home are absolutely spoiled and yours will be too.
