House Sitting in Porterville

“Juliann (nickname is June) was awesome with our fur babies! June sent pictures and messages regularly and wasn’t shy to ask any questions, as they came up, to be sure the best care was given. Our house was clean and taken care of too. I would definitely recommend June to house sit/pet sit, and will definitely be my first call next time I need a sitter! Thx, June! - Erin”

“Andrea is very caring and nice and treated my dog nicely. she makes sure to clean up after him and do everything he needs. and she is always excited to see my dog.”

“Alex is very friendly and trustworthy. Our dog zarah loves spending time with her.”

About: Hi my Name is Amanda! I am now a retired Sport Dog trainer. Now I call myself a Sport dog training enthusiast as I don’t take training clients anymore due to career change. Haha! I have an passion for dogs and horses! I've ridden horses since I was 7 years old. I have ample experience with all aspects of equine care & nutritional needs. And heavy experience with dogs in ALL aspects. Specifically high-drive working dog breeds: Bordercollies, Belgian Malinois, Mcnabs, & German Sheperds. I'm looking to fill in some extra time, by helping you care for your pet while you have to be away! I would give your dog mental and physical exercise, to keep your dog healthy while in my care! 😃 • Additional care availability for: cats, rodents or reptiles, equine, sheep/goats, pigs, fish. Further experience details: Currently I’m established as a volunteer with with 5 different non-profit rescue organizations. Since 2008 I have fostered many dogs, cats, & guinea pigs. Most recent years, I mainly do volunteer transport, rehabilitation fostering, some short-term emergency foster, & complete/write behavioral assessments for dogs in city/county municipal animal shelters. In 2019 I started sport dog training. I have experience in training competitive dog frisbee, beginning/intermediate herding, behavioral work, agility, and basic obedience. I have intensive experience with the treatment & rehabilitation care requirements of dog sport injuries. (ACL repairs, Cruciate repairs, surgery site care, bone break repairs etc.) I also have ample experience with pregnant, nursing, & whelping dogs. Extra info: • Experienced with charting & administering medications to pets. • Follow & carry out owners EXACT care-plan for each pet. I will not apply changes without owners permission. • Consistent,reliable, & responsive to owners communicating to myself before, during, and after pets *scheduled care. • I prefer AND recommend meet & greets for all clients I work part time night-shift on the weekends. I cannot stay overnight with pets currently on Friday and Saturday nights. I have ample availability for your pet care needs otherwise. •Care in your home will be done according to the care-plan you specify. ———————————————————— •Pet Boarding clients in my home: A Quiet peaceful space and Predictable schedule for your pet. Feeding regimen per owners care-plan. Bathroom & exercise time will be a mutually agreed and built part of your pets care plan. All dogs needs are different. I am home all day & only leave for errands or outings for my two children. I do not live with others AND do not have frequent visitors. My children ARE experienced with respecting & reading dog behavior, and do not partake in the care & interaction of boarding clients. Your pets will never be allowed to be *un-supervised loose in the home or yard. I run a very highly managed schedule for all pets in my home to meet all pets needs. Your pet will be in a crate when I rotate dogs in the yard. They will have AMPLE time outside of their crate consistently through the day for potty, exercise, & 1 on 1 time play/petting. My personal dogs are all Dog-neutral & extremely friendly, they do not have dog-to-dog reactivity problems. They would LOVE to play with your DOG FRIENDLY/PLAYFUL dogs. *Though your dogs will not be allowed loose with my personal dogs unless owner gives clear permission.* •All dogs will be crated when supervision is not available. Your dog should have crate training experience before boarding with me to help make your pets time in a dog crate familiar 😃 ••*I am willing to take non-crate trained dogs. But for your pets comfort they should be exposed to being in a crate in your own home prior to boarding.* •• *highly reactive or crate stressed dogs with destructive behaviors will need to have a solid sided plastic crate of appropriate size for pet by the owner for the boarding duration*

About: I’ve taken care of many kinds of dogs since I was 12 and now I’m 18. I have a big dog of my own that’s playful and loving. I love all dogs and cats because they’re so sweet and caring and give unconditional love. I currently work part-time at McDonald’s so my schedule could be a bit mixed up but on my free time I would love to spend time with pets! I can’t take care of pets in my home because I have no yard. However I would be a great dog walker/babysitter in your lovely pets home!

“I had a sitter cancel night before for I needed to leave the country and Ana immediately came in to save the day! She has been very patient with my fear aggressive healer and she’s probably the only other person he feels comfortable. Thank you for your help Ana!”

“I can't recommend Vicente enough! He has been incredibly caring and attentive with my blind dog, ensuring she felt safe and comfortable at all times. He also took excellent care of my 13-year-old Boston Terrier, showing patience and compassion for her senior needs. He truly loves and understands dogs, and I felt completely at ease knowing my pets were in such good hands. If you're looking for someone reliable and kind to care for your furry family members, he's the best choice”

“We are so happy we found Sierra! We could tell from our first meet and greet that our furbabies would be in good hands. Even our toddler adores her. She took excellent care of our dog and cat while we were away for a weekend. Our dog looked so happy in the pictures she shared of him on their walks. Loved the detailed notes she left us when we got back. We look forward to booking her again in the further!”

“I am so glad to have found Victoria! She is so caring and gentle, I knew she was the one I was looking for when I saw my dog approach her right away and lick her hand, which she usually never does! She took such good care of my 17 year old dog, and sent me multiple updates with photos/videos everyday. I will definitely be requesting her again! Thank you so much again Victoria :)”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats for many years, and it has become a true passion of mine. Meeting new animals and getting to know their unique personalities brings me immense joy. I’m currently a part-time dog groomer, which means I have plenty of time to give your pup or cat the attention they deserve! Once you see how much your pet loves me, I’ll even be able to groom them for you! 🐾🩵🐾 I don’t board animals in my home to ensure your pet feels as comfortable and secure as possible in their own environment. This also helps me connect with them more easily. I maintain a consistent schedule for feeding, potty breaks, and leisure time to ensure your fur baby is well cared for and comfortable. I absolutely love caring for animals and strive to provide them with the best care possible.

“First time using Rover and had such a great experience with Kristina! Easy to communicate with and my dogs loved her. She sent pictures throughout the day. Highly recommend her’”

Well i handle dogs pretty well I’ve studied and researched a lot of pets and see what dogs do. I’m sure I can take them out to go restroom and have them inside and bathe them.

“Alexis has worked for us off and on for about 2 yrs. now and has done a wonder job, our dog and cat love her, she take the dog for walks, gives meds when needed and calls if she has any questions. She has even watered my plants in door and outside. I would recommend her to anyone.”

“I recently had the pleasure of entrusting my puppy to the care of Teresa, and I couldn't be more satisfied with the experience. She was incredibly positive. I felt confident and at ease knowing that my puppy was in capable hands. The attention to detail, coupled with a genuine love for animals, sets her apart. I highly recommend her services to any pet owner seeking a trustworthy and caring dog sitter. Teresa is a communicative, reliable, and compassionate dog sitter who exceeded my expectations. I am grateful for the peace of mind she provided during my time away.”

About: I have always owned dogs, and I have a genuine love for animals. I take walks daily and love to hike and train my dog. I would love to give some of my free time and attention to some local pups needing to get out their energy while their humans are at work during the day. I have open availability Tuesday through Friday weekly for house sitting, walks, and playtime. I like going to the dog park, hikes, obedience training and just hanging out. Hi! I have a fenced in yard, clean driving record, and a Bachelor’s degree. I live near the elementary school in a quiet neighborhood with clean food and water for my own dog, and yours!

“Patricia is great with dogs, she's patient and responsible and will follow the instructions as to how one would want there dog taken care of. Even without instructions she will take care of your dog as if it was hers. She would be the only one I would trust with my dog. My dog is always very hyper and most people don't want to be his sitter due to that, but Patricia didn't turn him down she was patient and now my dog loves her.”

About: I’ve been taking care of animals ever since I was a kid, ranging from dogs, cats, birds, fish, etc. As an adult I have kept fish and cats, as well as dog sat plenty of times for my friends! I have always been naturally attracted to animals and love interacting with them, each one of them has a personality and my job is to make it shine!!! Very open and flexible schedule, currently working part time. If special accommodations are needed, let me know ahead of time and we can message to work something out! In my own home I have a fenced backyard and always supervise any fur babies that go out. For client’s pets, I always perform any special needs that the pet may require and specialize in being able to deal with anxiety.
