House Sitting in Ranchita

“We were very appreciative of Beth, our dog ended up having separation anxiety that we we did not anticipate and she kept us informed and did her best to keep our dog calm while we were away. Beth was very easy to communicate with, we would recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter. Thank you Beth!”

“Paris was absolutely incredible, and we feel so lucky to have found her! She cared for our dog, Kora, and our two cats, Whiskey and Cosmo, while we were away, and she exceeded every expectation we had. Not only did she provide constant communication and send us daily updates with photos, but she also showed a true level of compassion, attentiveness, and professionalism that put us completely at ease. During her stay, Kora unfortunately developed an unexpected health issue. Paris handled the situation with remarkable care and urgency. She kept us informed every step of the way, coordinated with us to make sure Kora received the attention she needed, and made sure she was comfortable and loved while we figured everything out. It meant the world to us knowing Kora was in such capable and caring hands. As for our two cats — they are typically extremely shy and tend to hide when new people are around. Somehow, Paris managed to win them over completely! She truly has a gift with animals. Whiskey and Cosmo were not only comfortable around her, but even came out to play and interact — something we rarely see with new people. Paris treated our pets like they were her own, and her dedication, patience, and genuine love for animals shined through in every interaction. We returned home to happy, relaxed pets and a home that was just as we left it. We would not hesitate to book Paris again and wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, responsible, and truly special to care for their furry family members. She is simply the best!”

“Love Joni. She came to stay with our gurl and wasn't at all intimidated by our 100lb ridgeback. She is definitely a dog-person and our Princess took to her right away. Joni communicated with us regularly and sent photos, assuring us that all was well. We were in sketchy cell area so when those notes came in it was such a relief. Highly recommend Joni!”

About: I’ve had experience dog sitting and house sitting for both single dogs and multiple dogs of all sizes. I follow detailed care routines, including administering medications and sticking to feeding, walking, and playtime schedules. I treat every dog like they’re my own—whether it’s a high-energy pup or a senior who needs extra love. You can count on me to provide reliable, loving care and keep your home just as you left it. Pet care fits easily into my schedule. I’m organized and flexible, so I can handle walks, visits, and stays reliably while giving pets the attention they need at anytime. When I care for pets at their home, I follow their regular routines carefully feeding, walking, playtime, and medication. I ensure they feel comfortable and secure in their own environment. Before leaving, I tidy up, take out the trash, and make sure the home is left just as I found it.

“Lily was an amazing house sitter and took such great care of our dog Marley! She sent daily updates with photos and we knew Marley was well exercised with daily walks and given lots of love. We came home to a clean house and a very happy dog. I highly recommend Lily and will definitely hire her again. Thank you Lily!!”

“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.”

“Hats off to Isaiah! He was super thorough and very respectful to my home. Most importantly he was extremely good to my dog Noah (who is my world). I can’t say enough good things about Isaiah. I will be using him in the future for 100% sure. Noah took to him quick and even slept with him! I was shocked because typically Noah ignores anyone who watches him. Isaiah is definitely a dog whisperer.”

“We cannot say enough about Bridget in such a positive way! She is amazing. Our Willow was so well taken care of and loved while we were away for a week. She was here during the week if torrential rains, and somehow she managed daily walks! We came home to a clean home, and a contented dog. Our Willow is a Covid pup with anxiety and separation issues - but she loved Bridget. It was great to have peace of mind while traveling. Bridget is a beautiful person that we feel grateful to have connected with.”

About: Ever since I can remember, myself as well as my family have loved and enjoyed dogs and they have always been a part of our family. I got my first puppy when I was 12 years old. She was a rescue and I had her until I was 26 years old. Her name was Molly. We had many other dogs during that time. My sister's and I were who cared for them all. Although this is my first time running a business caring for dogs, I have taken care of dogs most of my life. Some people call themselves a "people person". I call myself a "dog person". I have always had a natural ability to connect with dogs. Dogs have always loved being with me. I care for them as if they were a child of mine. As I always have said, the more I get to know people; the more I love dogs!

About: Animals have always been a big part of my life. I’ve cared for everything from hamsters, to rescue puppies (helping them recover, rehome, and get their meds on time). I take pet routines seriously because I know how much trust it takes to leave your furry family with someone else. I have a flexible schedule right now, which allows me to adapt to your pet's needs and routine. If anything ever changes, I'll communicate clearly and early because your peace of mind matters to me. My best friend has two mountain Bernese dogs, and whenever she travels, I’m the first person she calls. Her dogs know me, love me, and I know their routine, including meds and habits, like the back of my hand. I care for pets like they’re family, and I want them to feel comfortable and safe while their humans are away. That includes making sure your pet is okay with me, first and foremost. We can talk through any special instructions, quirks, or needs ahead of time. I want them to feel good in their space, and for you to feel confident while you’re away. I'm also mindful of instructions because I want your pet to feel at ease with me, so I take my cues from them. If they need time or have specific needs, I'll follow your guidance and adjust accordingly. If anything comes up we will talk it through in advance.

“Celeste was so responsive and sweet. She really was sweet to our boy and gave lots of updates and pics. Would highly recommend!”

About: Growing up as a country girl, I've always had a deep connection with animals and a passion for caring for them. My experience in pet care includes looking after a variety of pets, from cats and dogs to farm animals like horses and goats. I ensure a safe and loving environment for all pets in my care, treating each one as if they were my own. My daily routine allows me to dedicate ample time to play, exercise, and provide personalized care, ensuring that every pet gets the attention they deserve. With a focus on trust and safety, I’m committed to making both pets and their owners feel at ease while I offer my services. I'm currently working for Uber part-time with open availability in the evening after 3pm Mon-Friday. Being self-employed not only allows me to make my own schedule, but I have a very reliable vehicle with lots of space. I've already been transporting dogs and cats with their owners for a couple of years now, and I've gotten wonderful feedback about the level of comfort their furry friends experience during transport! When your pet is in my care, they will be safe and well looked after. I keep a close eye on them and provide secure spaces for playing. I believe trust is important, so I communicate with pet owners to give them peace of mind. Your pet will get personal attention, lots of love, and fun activities, making their time with me enjoyable and stress-free. You can be confident that I will create a friendly and positive atmosphere for all pets!

About: I have been caring for animals my entire life, and I have 10 years of professional pet care experience. I can care for dogs, cats, horses, reptiles, chickens, and rodents. I enjoy walking, watching, feeding and just generally caring for all animals. Anytime on weekends. I am also available during the day all week except for Tuesday. I take care of animals on a farm and that is taken care of at dawn and dusk. I come with plenty of poop bags, water, and healthy dog treats.

“We would work with Jenilee again. She did a meet & greet and asked good questions before we went out of town. She sent photos of the pets each day and was flexible with our return time on her last daysince we were driving. She kept us updated and cleaned up after one of the dogs got into the garbage. She also responded to text messages and questions before and during her stay.”

About: I’ve taken care of animals for about 10 years, I have watched dogs, cats, horses, pigs, bunnies and even birds. I enjoy taking care of animals very much so know your fur friend is in the best of care I currently work part time and will be available to walk/tend to your fur friend during anytime the day (will vary occasionally) and boarding is available at any time I ask that the owner leaves specific instructions if the animal is to be boarded.

About: Greetings, pet parents! I’ve been compassionately caring for animals for over 30 years. I have a degree in biology and studied zoology and botany which led me to being an animal keeper at the San Diego Zoo for several years. I have experience with all breeds, ages, and sizes - including cats, birds, reptiles, and horses. I’m responsible, mature, and take care of other peoples pets as if they were my own. I love giving them lots of love and attention! I have many wonderful past reviews from a different site. I can gladly send screenshots upon request. I work remotely during the week 7am-3:30pm so I can conveniently provide care throughout the day. I enjoy walking, hiking and just being outside in nature- so having a friend to join me would be wonderful. A huge part of pet sitting in someone’s home is Trust. I maintain a clean home and ensure privacy and security. This means locking all doors, double checking gates are closed, keeping pets on leash at all times (unless specifically instructed not to), and following directions. I’m a mature, professional woman and I do not use substances, alcohol, nor coffee. I am typically very quiet and love to just enjoy the peaceful moments in life. I am sensitive, caring, and compassionate which means I will be treating your pet with the utmost love and kindness- as you can clearly see in my photos.
