Cat Sitting in Poplar-Cotton Center

About: Hi! I’m a 21 year old college student at Porterville College and a lifelong animal lover. I live on a country property where I care for horses, chickens, cats, and dogs daily, giving me hands on experience with animals of all sizes and personalities. I offer pet sitting, overnight care, walks, drop-in visits, and boarding for pets that are comfortable around other animals. I pride myself on being reliable, attentive, and treating every pet like family. With a flexible schedule and a genuine passion for animal care, you can trust that your pets will be safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. Pet care is my full-time job, so your pet will always be my priority. Caring for animals is already part of my daily routine, and I'll have plenty of time to provide attention, playtime, exercise, medication administration, and personalized care throughout the day. I live in a peaceful country setting with a cozy home, lots of fresh air, and very little traffic. Your pet is welcome to enjoy the sights, sounds, and enrichment of country life while always being closely supervised. I also understand that every pet is different, and I'm happy to follow your preferences! Whether that means indoor-only care, crate training, a specific routine, or extra one-on-one attention. My goal is to provide a safe, comfortable environment where your pet feels right at home.

About: I have taken care of many different pets throughout all my life, i like to care of all animals that people wanted me to look after. I've had the pleasure of looking after my family's pets, neighbors pets,complete strangers pets and my friends pets. I'm a student at a online college with a flexible school schedule, so i'll have plenty of time to look after and care for you furry friends. Our yard is fenced so all the pets are secure, they are all well feed everyday and are cleaned as well as groomed all around. I am currently doing my college classes online, so it should be quite easy to work your pet into my schedule for the foreseeable future. I have a fenced off yard and i have a little kiddie pool for them to play in,plenty of pet toys around and more than enough pet food.

About: 🐶🐶THE PAWFECT TRIP🐶🐶 Hello my name is Luis! I’m a dog walker / pet sitter and I also do training. We have been servicing the Porterville area for over 3 years now. We have handled over 100 different dogs , no job is to small! 😃 I will interact with your dog and keep them entertained while they’re on their stay. I treat all dogs like they’re my own and our house is their house! They’re allowed to free roam inside and out! I’m very good with dogs as I do a lot of training I know how to work with them and handle them 😊 Hello, I’m available to work any day of the week and I do take last min as well as. This is my full time job. I'll make sure they are on leashes before getting off the car. I never drive fast with you're animals in the car and I'll keep an eye on them the whole time on the way to our destination.

About: I worked as a professional dog walker and sitter in San Francisco in 2019. As a huge dog lover, this was a dream come true! I worked for a local company, Citizen Hound, and fell in love with every aspect of the job (and every pup!). I was responsible for two packs of 6-8 dogs who I would pick up/drop off and take for one hour walks every day. Typically these walks would be off leash, at the beach or a park, so I went through extensive training to receive my walking permit. Having grown up with dogs of my own, I understand that dogs are owner's babies, making sure to treat each dog as if they were my own! I sat many of the dogs in my packs as well as other dogs in the company that year. I have been volunteering at animal shelters for the past 7 years and therefore have experience walking a variety of dogs. I have sat blind and sick dogs, so I am comfortable with medications as well as other special needs (eye drops, IBS, separation anxiety, etc). When sitting, I love to take dogs on hikes or even to the dog park, with owners permission, to make sure they are getting exercise. I always update owners frequently and send lot of pictures! I miss all of the dogs from my packs and am looking to create new connections with both dogs and owners here in Sacramento. I would prefer to have regular clients, however I am also open to one time walks/sits. Although I am just getting started on Rover in the area, I highly encourage you to look up reviews for Citizen Hound to see the standard of care I expect of myself (: I’m currently enrolled in an online master’s program and am self employed, so my schedule is very open and flexible! I would especially love to help out during the late morning and early afternoon hours while owners are at work/school. My apartment is unfortunately not pet friendly, however I have experience pet sitting in owner’s homes. I have found this to be especially beneficial for dogs who like to stick to their regular routine and surroundings. I love taking dogs on adventures during our sits, with owner permission, and make sure to send frequent updates and photos!

“Words cannot express how amazing Erica was to my little cat Calvin!!! She took great care of him, kept me informed and went above and beyond to show my super shy cat some love! She is definitely going to be my go-to sitter and gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. Definitely would recommend!!”

About: I have had 3 dogs in the past that I love dearly, I enjoy going on walks with them and I love playing as well. I am currently not working and just taking a summer art class for college. I am free almost every day of the week and any time. Having a fence yard, a good neighborhood to walk around and friendly pets would be great. A good schedule for the times and how much food to give them would be great as well

About: Currently student of the college of the Sequoia majoring in animal science to become a vet tech I love working with companion, animals and also I am the designated sitter for friends and family. I’m currently a full-time student with online classes which leaves my schedule very flexible. I am available Friday Saturday and Sunday all day and on Tuesdays and Thursdays I’m available from 2:00pm. Mondays and Wednesdays I’m available all morning until 4 to 6. I have experience with companion, animal safety, and first aid if needed.

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and I also worked at a doggy day care so I know how to handle many different types of situations with high energy and/or aggressive breeds. I’m currently in college and doing online classes so trying to make extra money while being able to do something I love and be able to create my own schedule. I do not have a fenced yard but I do have a very respectful golden retriever who grew up around an elderly dog. He loves to play and I am able to walk multiple dogs at once and my home has lots of space to play and stretch their legs.

About: I have taken care of cats and dogs for my family members for two years. I rented a house and the owner left his two Great Pyrenees to be in my care for the amount of time I lived there. I have a 3 year old pit bull and a 2 year old German Shepherd I love and care for now. I also have a 2 year old kitty that I love. All animals need love time and energy and I adore animals and their unique personalities! I’m currently working a full time job but I do get Friday- Sundays off which allows me to spend a lot of time with my animals but I know a lot of people who work weekends and or want to travel and I am willing to help people with their fur babies while they’re away. With my families, I make sure to establish a relationship first and make your fur baby trust me and enjoy being around me. If I go to your home, I will always ask where their favorite spot it or if you would like to crate them while I leave. I do enjoy walking them and feeding them and giving treats to enforce positive behavior.

“Kristina is a great pet sitter! She is amazing with cats and even had our skittish boy coming out to say hello. We will definitely use her again and recommend her to anyone looking for pet sitters.”

About: I have had several dogs as pets. I practically grew up with them. I learned everything I could about how to take care of animals and even love to train them a little bit. My family and friends always tend to rely on me to not only train their dog a little, but also take care of their pets while they’re gone. I’m currently looking for a more stable job, but am volunteering at Tulare County Animal Services. I’ll have plenty of time to care for your pets in the mean time. I have a medium sized backyard and no other pets in the home at the moment. I have transportation available for any house sitting needed.

About: Ive finished my schooling and got a certificate in Veterinary Medicine/ Assistant. I learned many skills like taking vitals, giving medication correctly and learning animal behavior. I’ve also volunteered for the kings county animal shelter for 2 years and enjoyed every minute of it. A lot of people say I have a good empathic sense with animals and know how they feel. I love playing and cuddling with animals but I know the responsibility that comes with taking care of them. Pets are a part of the family and need to feel safe and protected like children. I was a very shy person and animals helped me come out of my shell and made it easier to put myself out there. I value and appreciate pets as our friends and companions for life and I know they create a bond that no one can break and I want to be there to see it grow. I’m currently looking for work in my field so my schedule is open and flexible. I do try my best to keep my calendar updated to how my schedule currently looks. Most of the time I am still able to fit in a drop in visit or two on the days I have marked off though. I have two pets, one large dog and energetic plus a small senior dog who thinks she is the queen. They do get jealous so I can’t offer taking your pet in but if I’m coming to your house I always make sure they get lots of attention, playtime if needed and the basics like food and fresh water.
