Pet Sitting Portal Inn

About: Hi I'm Jeanette. I've owned and cared for animals my entire life. I've taken care of many animals for friends and family over the years. I've owned many different kinds of animals from dogs and cats to birds, reptiles and everything in between. I currently have 2 dogs and 2 cats that keep me busy. I've work with animals for the past 18 years. I worked at a vet clinic where I got to take care of many different types of animals. I've also been a dog groomer for the last 18 years. I've worked at a doggy daycare where I got to take care of senior pets and administer medication when needed. Making your fur babies comfortable and happy while your away is what I do best. If they are happy then I'm happy. Hope to hear from you soon. I'm currently not working at the moment so my schedule is pretty open to anything right now. Let me know what dates and times you need me and we can definitely work something out. I'll make sure your pet stays safe while in my care. I will keep a close eye on your pet if they have special need or are a senior pet. While in there own environment I'll make sure they are very comfortable. Throwing a ball or giving a treat, it's the little things while your away.

“Stacy was amazing. She cleaned the litter and was there on time as requested every day. Our cats seemed to really like her since the first few days we got back they would wait by the door for her. She also sent us updates and pictures daily.”

About: Hi! I’m a caring, responsible, and attentive pet lover who truly enjoys spending time with animals and making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their families are away. 🐾 I have hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats. I currently have three dogs of my own, including Sage, whom I rescued, and I’ve also cared for a rescued cat for several years. Living with multiple pets has given me plenty of experience with different personalities, energy levels, routines, and individual needs. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime, keeping pets on their normal routines, and providing plenty of companionship and attention. I understand how important consistency and patience are, especially when a pet is in a new environment or away from their family. I currently work remotely, which gives me flexibility and allows me to spend quality time with pets throughout the day. I’m happy to follow your pet’s routine and any specific instructions you provide, because I know every pet is different. My goal is to give you peace of mind while you’re away and to make your pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’ll treat your pets with the same patience, kindness, and respect I give my own. I can’t wait to meet your furry family members! 🐶🐱🤎 I work remotely, so I have a flexible schedule and am happy to welcome your furry friends into my routine. I’m available weekdays and weekends, with plenty of time to give your pets the attention, care, and companionship they deserve. 🐾🤎 Whether your pet stays in my home or I care for them in your home, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I have a fenced yard and three friendly dogs who enjoy having company. I’m also an active person and would love to take your pup on walks, play with them, and give them plenty of attention while following their normal routine and your care instructions. 🐾🤎

About: I have been a petsitter for 16 years and this is my most favorite thing to do! I have experience with pot belly pigs, hedgehogs, cats, dogs, reptiles, farm animals, aquatic life, small animals. Also professionally trained with many more kinds of creatures including medication management of birds, turtles, etc. My ultimate goal is to become an animal therapist. Your pet (s) will receive almost non stop attention with me because I can’t have my own animals at this time so I love making the most of it! My housesitting minimum outside of holidays is 3 nights. Minimum during holidays is 4 nights. I have been called an animal whisperer on several occasions and I am grateful to have such a special connection with animals. I also provide “Whole Tones” music for stressed pets free of charge.

About: My family owned many animals at the same time, we had 3 dogs and 2 cats. I would help take them out to play and go for walks even if they were a little mean. I would help feed the animals the right amount a food for each dog and cat and refill their water so I am very familiar with basic sitting My schedule is given to me weekly for my main job but I mostly work the evenings so you can expect me for mornings unless they decide to make me work the morning but I ask for a week in advance schedule (before Sunday) so I can have my boss give me a schedule that works for you:) I care for all animals as if they were priceless creatures and they should always be treated with respect and modesty, and I try keep the animal comfortable

“Regena was amazing! She let us know what was going on with our boys each time she visited and the pics were great! We felt they were cared for well while we were away! We will definitely request her again!”

About: Hi my name is Abigail I’m a dependable, caring animal lover who understands that pets are family. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or just a calm companion to keep them company, I’ll tailor my care to their individual personality and routine. I know how important it is to keep pets on a consistent schedule, and I’ll follow any feeding, medication, or exercise instructions carefully. I believe communication is just as important as great pet care, so I’ll send regular updates and photos to give you peace of mind while you’re away. I treat every home with respect and every pet as if they were my own. I have experience caring for dogs of different sizes and personalities, as well as cats, and I’m comfortable providing walks, drop-in visits, and overnight care. My priority is making sure your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for from the moment you leave until you return. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your furry family members. I look forward to giving them the love, attention, and care they deserve! As a full-time employee, I understand the importance of planning and being reliable. My work schedule allows me to provide pet care before and after work on weekdays, as well as evenings, and I have greater flexibility on weekends for walks, drop-in visits, and overnight care. I carefully manage my schedule to ensure every pet receives the time, attention, exercise, and affection they deserve. Whether it’s an early morning walk, an evening visit, or weekend care, I’m committed to being dependable and keeping your pet’s routine as consistent as possible. I have a fenced yard, and two other dogs who are able to keep you dog company, and i can crate them if needed, i live in a nice neighborhood for walks. I also live with my family so they will give lots of love as well.

About: Animals have been a huge part of my life since I was young—I love critters of all kinds and I am willing to learn how to care for any animal who needs a companion. Dogs, cats, birds, rabbits, rats, fish, you name it! I have owned pets of my own since I was about 10—fish, hamsters, cats, even ant colonies and pillbugs—and I began to petsit for neighbors as a teenager. I'm generally capable of regular house visits, keeping a punctual schedule, engaging in play & enrichment any way I can, bathing animals of any size, and adapting to the needs of any animal in my care. I am not able to consistently walk very high-energy dogs, but if you have an enclosed yard I'm more than happy to let your pet(s) get his or her energy out there. I'm great with low-energy animals who need a cuddle buddy or somebody to simply share a space with. I'm willing to do overnights, week+ long stays, and jobs with multiple pets. My schedule is very flexible to the needs of your pets, but I do have animals of my own to care for at home. I typically do not like to leave clients' pets alone for more than 4 hours at a time during the day, so you can expect regular visits within that time frame. I like to have lots of options for play & exercise with your pet. I don't take pets home, but I'm happy to supervise your pet in a fenced yard or a nearby park! I enjoy snuggles & handling small enclosure pets like rodents, and I'm willing to learn how to provide enrichment for any animal. I'm very strict about sticking to a feeding schedule, but I do like to give plenty of treats throughout the day if health allows. I try to keep clean as much as possible—bathing pets, regularly vacuuming/mopping, emptying litter, brushing fur and teeth, etc.

About: My name is Jessica! I am 21 years old and I am originally from Brentwood, California. I just graduated last week from College and I have officially moved into my first apartment here in Redding. I am looking for clients that I can gain their trust to watch their animals in Redding. In high school I had a couple families back home that I was always on their list to watch their animals and I would love to be on your list as well. I have my own car and I am willing to take your animals on walks and to outdoors areas to play if you would like. I have a huge love for all animals but unfortunately I can't have any animals in my apartment so this will be perfect to get my animal fix for the weekend. I am very reliable, organized, and trustworthy. I would love to help you and your family out! Thank you for your time. Pet care fits into my daily routine by going home during my breaks at work to let animals out. Weekends are a huge part in taking care of animals for people when they go on vacation. I plan on taking care of the animals any way the owners do like in their own home. I will play with them and keep them active.

“Laura is the best! She has compassion for my fur babies and excellent communication skills. Every time she stopped by she sent multiple pictures and told me what they were up to! I will definitely request for Laura every time we travel! Thank you so much Laura!”

I've personally owned/fostered, 2 labs, a pit/boxer, a french bull dog, 2 Chihuahuas and more. I've even trained a bit too. I've decided that this is something I'd like to do full time,or as much as possible, I love dogs and if I can help their owners out as well, I think it's a win win I have a back yard, high fences, its not very big butnits safe tlanyld your animal will be safe! As for at your home if you tell me what needs to be done I will follow the list and provide pictures of it done!

“If you’re looking for someone who’s very reliable and trustworthy with pets, Melissa is your person! My husband and I have used to her a few times while we have been out of town to give our 16 year old kitty her daily blood pressure medicine. Not only is she friendly and responsive towards people as well as reliable. She’s patient and kind with pets. My 16 year old girl who’s normally shy around strangers was at first shy around Melissa but has since warmed up that when it isn’t med time, she will greet her and let Melissa pet her for a few seconds (as is her nature she isn’t a kitty that likes being touched in general unless it’s on her terms) Melissa has her own two pets which I think helps with knowing how to read animal body language but also helps animals eventually trust her. I honestly couldn’t ask for a better pet sitter for the things I’ve asked of Melissa while we are away, if you ask politely and remember she to is a person. She delivers exceptionally!! Would definitely recommend her, but would also use her for future dates if applicable with her schedule.”
