House Sitting Pioneertown

About: I've had dogs my entire adult life. My last dog was a special girl and didn't get along with other dogs so when I went to work I hired someone to visit and hang out with her and I called that person her "friend for hire". I'd love to be your pets friend for hire. In addition to having my own dogs I have been a volunteer with a local shelter for the past year. I have experience with dog handling, walking, training, medical recovery, some medication administration, and general playing/loving/cuddling. I have experience with special needs dogs, untrained dogs, unsocialized dogs, senior dogs, puppies, and even some mess dogs. I also grew up with cats and started my volunteer work "socializing" with cats and kittens. I love all the furry little friends! I currently make my own schedule as a personal trainer so I am flexible and available to meet your dog's needs. Weekdays or weekends are available. Want to go for a hike or rock climbing? I've got your furry friend covered. As someone who had an aggressive dog I understand that it can be challenging trusting someone new with your pet. You know your animal best and I will listen and adhere to any/all boundaries you have for their health and enjoyment.

“Our german shepherd Aggy had such a fun time with Juliann during her house sitting stay! Aggy felt so comfortable with her and it was great to know she was taken such good care of while we we gone for the week. Thank you Juliann!!”

“April was a fantastic dog and cat sitter to our four pets and did a great job looking after our house and resident houseplants when we were away for a week and took in our mail and packages. She gave my dog Lady her heart medication as well. She is also very responsive! I would definitely seek out April again for future trips and would recommend her to others!”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities for over 6 years. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to feed, walk, play with, and check in on their pets while they’re away. I’m patient, responsible, and love making pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I also have experience with energetic dogs and keeping pets on their regular routines. I have a flexible schedule and make pet care a priority in my daily routine. I’m available for check-ins, walks, feeding, playtime, and overnight care depending on your pet’s needs. I always make sure pets get plenty of attention, exercise, and care while their owners are away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I carefully follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, and any routines your pet is used to. I make sure pets feel safe, loved, and stress-free in their own environment while keeping owners updated with messages and photos.

About: I’m a reliable, caring pet sitter who keeps routines consistent, provides personalized attention, ensures pets feel safe and comfortable, and gives plenty of love, playtime, and companionship. Pet care is part of my daily routine. I have two cats myself, so I prioritize consistent visits, feeding, walks, and attention to keep pets comfortable and safe. While I am not offering boarding or day care at my own home at this time, I am quite responsible in my treatment of other people's property while caring for their pets. I can follow directions, keep gates closed, and follow safety protocols.

About: I taken care when I was very young even taking care of ill/sick animals. I'll nurse them back to health when vets couldn't do it. I bottle feed and take them to the restroom when they are babies. I been taking care since 10 years old. I'm very open with my schedule and love to be around animals. I work from home working as a editor and have lots of free time. I have a gate area for all animals. I always have them on a leash and make sure we walk in the morning or evening. It's too hot for their paws if you have booties for them even great. Always have water on me and poop bags. I never have anything laying around for them to eat or play with. I'm always outside with them when need to go potty and play.

About: I’ve grown up with both dogs and cats, and have been a huge animal lover my whole life. I’ve always been a sitter for friends and family in need and figured I might as well expand my services. I have a big home and yard, with plenty of grass and room to run. Our home is very pet friendly, and they pretty much are free to roam as they please. My husband and I keep the home clean, but cozy. We have kids, cats, and dogs and everyone gets along. We keep the upstairs blocked off so the cats have their own space to play and relax. There are tile floors for a cool place to nap, dog beds, cat trees, and plenty of toys. I’m a nurse and CPR certified, so your fur baby is safe with me. I only ask that your pet is friendly, and if you have a dog that they are a minimal barker as we like to keep our neighbors happy. I can help with potty training, bathing, and medicines too…whatever your pet needs. All you need to provide is your pets favorite food. I’ll take care of the rest. I work part time as a nurse, usually during the nights and my husband is a stay at home dad. I have plenty of time and energy to devote to your fur baby. I have a large home and yard with plenty of grass. There are also several dog parks within our community for your fur baby to play.

About: I love animals . I cant remember a time where I haven't had pets growing up. I am experienced with cat, dogs, puppies, and have no breed restrictions. Im experienced with dogs suffering from PTSD and the ones who need extra love to heal. I've received dog training at the Hounds Grounds in Huntington Beach,CA. , and spend time volunteering at Haven Animal Shelter , where I continue to learn new training techniques to manage multiple dogs at once. My goal one day is to have a sanctuary of my own, a safe place for animals to call home. I understand that leaving your fur children in the care of another may be a bit scary. I promise to treat your babies as if they were my own. I offer walks, playtime , cuddles , and proper rest. If your away and want to check on your beloved animal im more than happy to send videos, and pictures, giving you the peace of mind you deserve. I am available Friday though Sunday, and weekdays after 5:00pm for drop ins and walks. I can be available during some holidays provided you book in advance Safety first! I will always make sure your beloved pet is safe from the elements and wildlife that tend to prey on our animals here in So Cal. I carry a whistle , dog horn , and pepper spray during all walks making sure im prepared for the unexpected . I am experienced with redirection and commands. I also make sure during peak dusk and dawn hours your pets will be secured inside your home.

“Karaleah took care of our dogs on Thursday and Friday while we were busy with wedding events, and we couldn’t have asked for a better sitter! She was so loving, sweet, and gentle with both of them. Her calm and kind presence made such a difference, especially during a hectic time. She was patient, attentive, and made sure our pups were happy and well cared for. We’re so grateful for her help and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will treat your dogs like her own!”

“Don was great with both my dog, Neko, and my Cat, Teri. He sent videos regularly and keep me informed about Neko and especially how Teri were doing. Also, Don went out of his way to care for Teri, my cat. Teri has kidney disease and requires hydration with a saline solution every day. Don was wonderful with Teri by injecting the solution under his skin. This was accomplished by placing a needle under Teri's loose skin and slowly allowing the saline solution to flow under his skin. Don is very personable and I recommend him very highly for caring for your pet.”

About: Hello, my name is Seana, my experience comes from having grown up with pets of many kinds, both my own and others. I can feed, bathe, clean up after, walk and play with your dog. There may be times where I may need to bring another dog with me, so if you could please let me know how your dog is with others, then I can arrange accordingly. To contact me I would appreciate a phone call to arrange a meet up. Thank you for your time and I hope to hear from you and your pet soon. I am currently job hunting, so I am always home with plenty of time to care for your beloved pets. I only ask to arrange a meet and greet before a service is booked. I live in a house on 5 acres of unfenced land. I do have a cat of my own so overnights will have to be at my home, otherwise I am flexible.

“Shayna was such an incredible pet sitter, our giant dogs were so well cared for, our house was left spotless and she was flexible with our changing return flight schedule and willing to extend if needed. It took all the worry out of traveling”

About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of animals from a very young age, as of now I’m currently working off and on with some family friends and overnight sitting their pups! I have other great qualities as well such as the ability to clean, communication, organization and much more. It would be an honor to watch after your fur babies or any kind of animal for that matter! I have had plenty of pets in my lifetime and it’s a joy to watch them thrive. To be able to help out would be amazing, keep in touch! I also drive as well! As of now I am working part time/as needed but so far I’ve only really dog sat during weekends. Since it’s summer and I just graduated, I have plenty of time to spend taking care of your pups to keep them healthy and in shape while you’re away! I have a huge backyard with lots of grass, a doggy run, and a pool! My house is decently large and I have a doggy named obi who’s a golden doodle and is very friendly!

She would send pictures and always let me know how my pets were doing! I would definitely recommend her and re-book her in the future.”
