House Sitting Paloma

“Charlene was amazing! She kept in contact with me daily, administered my older kitties meds, checked in with me to make sure I’d be home as expected and embraced one of the cats snuggling and sleeping with her. A true joy and highly recommend!”

“Celia went above and beyond doing a few overnight stays taking care of my senior cat. She is a joy to be around and also cooked us a meal for when we got home. Thank you so much, you are appreciated!”

About: Hi! My name is Ariana and I have spent my entire life around animals and am very comfortable caring for a wide variety of pets. I have a big heart for animals and have cared for a wide variety, including dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, horses (worked at summer camp!), chickens, and more, which has boosted my confidence in handling different routines, personalities, and care needs. My main experience includes feeding, exercising, grooming, cleaning enclosures and living spaces, as well as administering basic care. My priority is to ensure animals feel safe, comfortable, and well-loved while their owners are away. I have a flexible schedule and can accommodate well with you and your pets needs. Please contact me for specifics! Currently, I am available usually after 1pm Monday-Friday and all day Sunday but I do not have a set schedule so things can change around so please reach out to me for specifics! My family currently owns 2 cats, a dog and birds which I took care of before I moved out for graduate school last Fall. My parents entrusted me with the care of these pets and more, now and throughout my childhood, This includes walks in nature, indoor and outdoor access for both the cats and the dogs during feeding, playing, etc. Since we have owned many animals I have some experience in training as well. I am able to offer in-home care, bringing my experience to you in the comfort of your home and serving your pets in a way that makes them feel the most comfortable (keeping a standard routine, familiar environment, etc).

“Jessie was absolutely incredible with our dogs, Snickers and Olive. From the moment we left, I felt completely at peace knowing they were in such caring and capable hands. She treated them like her own and kept us updated with the sweetest, most thoughtful photos—it truly meant so much to us. You can tell she genuinely loves what she does. Coming home to happy, relaxed pups says everything. We are beyond grateful and will absolutely be using her again!”

About: I grew up around dogs when I was younger. About 9 years ago, my kids and I started taking care of friends, and family members, dogs when they go out of town...feeding, walking, letting outside, overnights, giving medicine, etc. We started watching dogs through Rover so my children would gain experience with other puppies and dogs. My kids have done so well caring for others' dogs that I decided they were ready to have a puppy of their own. We welcomed Snowball into our family on 12-18-2021. Snowball has all his shots (NOT neutered) and is ready to make new friends. He has gotten along with all the dogs we've watched on Rover and when meeting other dogs while on walks. My children and I would love to care for your puppy/dog and treat them with love and kindness during their stay with us. We're also available for drop-in visits at your home. Overnights: Friday evenings and Saturdays all day/night. Pick-ups on Sundays are ok. No overnights during the week, unless specified on our calendar. Drop-ins and walks: please message me for availability. Also available certain holidays. Looking forward to caring for your pup. These are a few things about safety in our home while caring for your pup: - We have a fenced in back yard to keep your pup safe while outside. - I can assure you that we will never feed human food to any pup. - We do not allow pups to sleep in the bed with us. Please bring a play-pen or crate for your fur baby to sleep in at night for his/her safety. - We are willing to accommodate requests such as "please don't let my pup on the couch." Just ask and we'll do our best to meet all your pet care needs.

“Lily is amazing! Extremely conscientious, followed all instructions to a T, great communication and sent so many photos. And most importantly, the pups loved her. So happy to have found Lily!”

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my genuine passion for animals, along with a strong focus on tailored care for each pet’s unique needs. I have hands-on experience with both energetic puppies and senior pets requiring extra patience and support. I'm comfortable with administering medications, following special diets, and sticking to detailed routines to ensure your pet feels safe and happy in your absence. Pet care is a natural and fulfilling part of my daily and weekly routine. I structure my schedule to prioritize reliability and consistency, whether it's early morning feedings, midday walks, or evening playtime and check-ins. I'm flexible and committed to working around your pet’s needs, ensuring they get the attention, exercise, and love they deserve every single day. Whether it's a short-term visit or long-term care, I make sure your pet’s routine stays as normal and comforting as possible. Safety, trust, and comfort are always my top priorities when caring for pets—whether in my home or a client’s. I take the time to understand each pet’s routine, preferences, and any special needs to create a secure, calm environment. In a client’s home, I respect their space and follow all instructions closely to ensure their pet feels safe in a familiar setting. If I’m caring for pets in my own home, I provide a clean, pet-friendly space that’s fully secured and free of hazards. I supervise interactions, keep a consistent routine, and always provide plenty of love, enrichment, and downtime to help pets feel at ease. I also keep communication open with regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is in great hands.

“Kimberleigh was our guardian angel for a last minute booking. Our tiny puppy loved her and she was so patient with his teething and menacing behavior. Thank you, Kimberleigh, I hope you can watch Rambo again for us in the future.”

About: Hello, I am a patient and kind care provider for pets of all sizes, ages, and energy levels; including exotics and livestock. In addition to growing up on the Vargas Cattle Ranch in Fremont, California, I have many years experience as a foster pet mom and respite pet caregiver. My specialties are orphan care and special needs requiring medication and or specialized attention after surgery. I have occasionally provided respite to animal rescue homes with up to 15 animals when the proprietors are out of state on vacation. In addition, I scored a proficient level on "Indeed's" veterinarian technician assessment in the areas of knowledge of common medications, vaccines in medical tests as well as skill in addressing animals needs during treatment. I am also a retired certified nurse aide with first responder medical training, a safe driver with car insurance, and a trusted provider with a clean Federal back ground clearance as a Notary Public for the state of California. I serve all of Amador County. Although I would consider other counties on a case by case basis. I am a retired Health Care Provider with many years of Special Needs Pet Sitting experience and prefer to stay busy on my 3 acres of fenced in property. My pets and the pets that I host enjoy joining me on morning and afternoon walks on trails and playing fetch. I keep a close eye on them when we are outside. Then we all snuggle up on the couch and dog beds after meals while we watch a fun movie together.

“Tabi, Mia and Sadie let us know that Shuree took excellent care of our dogs for 7 days. She stayed with them and fed and medicated them. She took them for a walk and kept them safe. She was very responsive to my questions and sent cute photos of them. We will use her services again and can recommend her to others.”

About: I have had dogs and puppies many times in the past years so I am familiar with the needs of older dogs and puppies. I enjoy walking and taking walks with your dog. I am retired, living in the foothills of Jackson. I can be available to travel to your home, stay in your guest room, and hang out with your pets, or take your small pet at my home. When dogs and I walk I enjoy getting to know the surrounding area. Many times a neighbor will talk to me when we are on our walks! I am retired. Since I am available to travel to your home and stay there with your pets while I enjoy them and the time spent reading and visiting local attractions. Should you wish to use my home for care, I am home a lot while going out for a couple of hours at a time for my social meetings and such. I appreciate that much of the time I spend will be at your home with your pets. If I go out they will be wherever you leave them when you go to work or play. I always make sure they are safe and that I return in time for walks, their next meal and shared evening and sleep routine time.

About: "Having grown up around animals all my life, I have a natural instinct for reading a pet's body language and understanding their needs. What sets me apart is my commitment to customized care—I adapt to your pet's specific personality, whether they are playful, shy, or need extra cuddle time. I treat every guest just like a member of my own family." Since I work from home full-time, pet care fits perfectly into my daily routine. My schedule is highly flexible, allowing me to provide constant companionship, frequent bathroom breaks, and playtime whenever needed. I naturally take breaks throughout the day to stretch my legs, which is the perfect time for walks or backyard play. Your pet will essentially be my 'co-worker' and will rarely be left unattended. Safety and comfort are my top priorities. When hosting pets in my home, I ensure the environment is fully pet-proofed, clean, and free of any hazards. Pets are never left unattended, and I always do a slow, supervised introduction if other animals are present. I strictly follow your feeding, crating, and bathroom routines to keep their environment as familiar as possible. If I am caring for your pet in your own home, I respect your space and follow your house rules to the letter. I maintain your security protocols, ensure doors and gates are always locked, and keep a close eye on your pet during walks to avoid any unsafe interactions. No matter the location, I promise to send you daily photo and text updates so you can have complete peace of mind while you are away.

“Malina was a life saver for a last minute booking! She stayed with our fur babies at our home and did great! Would recommend to anyone looking for a sitter”

About: I have hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats, providing attentive, reliable, and compassionate care tailored to each animal’s needs. With dogs, I’m comfortable managing feeding schedules, daily walks, exercise routines, basic training reinforcement, and administering medications when needed. I understand the importance of consistency, patience, and positive interaction to keep dogs happy and well-behaved. For cats, I’m experienced in maintaining clean litter boxes, feeding routines, grooming, and creating a calm, stress-free environment—especially for more independent or shy personalities. I pay close attention to behavior and health cues in both dogs and cats, ensuring any changes are noticed early. Above all, I treat every pet as if they were my own, prioritizing their safety, comfort, and emotional well-being. My goal is to give pet owners peace of mind knowing their animals are in caring, capable hands. I currently live and work full-time for Amador County. Outside of my 9-5 Mon thru Fri county work I am available for house and pet sits. I prefer to pet sit in clients homes, feeling that as little change as possible in a pets environment can reduce stress and separation anxiety.

“Amy was amazing with my little pup! So patient and understanding!! Built a genuine connection with Murphy from the moment they met. She was in constant communication, sent tons of amazing photos! Would 100% recommend”

Here your dog will be happy to see us, and eager to come back! I have one crate only that is provided if needed, but I am happy to use a crate you bring if your dog is crate trained for night time. If not, then they will be free to roam and choose a couch to sleep on or snuggle with us in the bed. I have cared for a large variety of animals personally and professionally over the course of my entire life, and I wouldn’t have it any other way! Life is better with animals and I want to share the love and help wherever needed! I am someone that has fostered/rescued and returned any lost pets I pass by, I just can’t drive by without trying to do something. Here all animals are part of the family.

Full of love, fun, and snuggles!

“Magy's stay with Rebecca was fantastic. I really appreciate her flexibility with pick up and drop off times. She's always really laid back and I love that!”

“Brandie stayed at my house for 4 days with my dog and 3 cats. She left the house in great condition and even watered my plants and brought in my mail. She is a natural with animals. My dog developed a tight connection with her and she did a great job taking care of him even in the very warm weather. She was great with the cats as well; playing with them and tending to their needs. I appreciate that she kept the dog and cats apart as they do not like each other. I highly recommend Brandie for your pet sitting and dog walking needs.”
