Pet Sitting in Rico

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and have experience caring for both small and large breeds. I currently own a Great Pyrenees and a Sheepadoodle, which has given me hands-on experience with dogs of different sizes, energy levels, and personalities. Through consistent training and daily care, my dogs walk calmly by my side and know all of their basic commands. I understand the importance of patience, safety, exercise, and giving every dog the attention and care they deserve. I currently work full time Monday - Friday 9-5pm off weekends. I am willing to walk/sit anytime before or after work and anytime on the weekends. I care for every pet as if they were my own. Whether I’m caring for a pet in my home or a client’s home, I make sure they have fresh water, are fed according to their normal routine, get plenty of exercise, and receive lots of attention and affection. I understand how important consistency is for pets, so I do my best to follow the owner’s instructions closely and maintain their usual schedule. I also provide updates and photos so owners can feel confident that their pets are safe, comfortable, and well cared for while they’re away.

“Juliana was a lifesaver for taking in my last minute booking to watch my dog, Ozzy. She was very attentive and always spends extra time with my dog. She takes initiative when issues arise and reports to me when problem has been handled. We’re so grateful for you!”

About: I’ve been the main caregiver to my JRT, Charlie, for about 7 years, and my pit bull lab, Blu, for about 2 years. With two dogs, trust me, there’s no situation too tough to handle! I am responsible, reliable, and care deeply about my fur babies. I will do whatever it takes to keep your dog out of harm’s way and make sure they have a great time! Pet care is a constant part of my daily routine. I am a college student primarily taking online classes, so the majority of my time is spent at home. I feed my dogs twice daily. We go on walks frequently around the neighborhood. I keep them entertained with their toys and give them lots of attention and petting. I make sure they get several potty breaks throughout the day. I take any precautions necessary to keep them out of trouble and keep them safe.

“Alejandra took very good care of our fur babies while we were away. We never have to worry when our fur babies & home are under her care. She’s very vigilant & appreciate her daily detailed updates. Will definitely be utilizing her services again in the near future. Thank you so much again!”

About: With over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for animals, I provide dependable, loving, and attentive pet sitting you can trust. Throughout the years, I’ve cared for pets of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments—from energetic puppies to senior pets needing extra patience and gentle care. I currently work part-time, which gives me plenty of flexibility and availability to provide attentive, consistent care for your pets. Whether you need daytime visits, outdoor walks, evening check-ins, or extended care, I’m able to accommodate a variety of schedules to meet your pet’s needs. I know how important it is to feel confident leaving your pet in someone else’s care. That’s why I’ve created a safe, pet-friendly environment with a fenced backyard for playtime and a dedicated space inside my home just for pets to relax. I also have two sweet Frenchies, Zach and Romiii, who love having new furry friends around. Your pet will always be supervised, safe, and treated with love.

I also have 2 mice named Amy Farrah Fowler & Bernadette. :) I'm a pet carer every second I'm not at school. I just graduated with my Bachelor's degree at SDSU. Outside of that, I am employed so my availability is limited. I clean my cats litter and vacuum daily, so I have no issue cleaning messes or necessities. Let me know if you have specific cleaning techniques I should know!

About: I’ve grown up caring for ducks, cats, dogs, and birds! I was a Vet Tech Assistant for 3 years, loved my time there! I currently have 3 cats and a maltipoo (shown in the picture)! I’m a college student who attends via online! I work few hours at my job and so just looking to be active and have a little fun time in between coursework! My breaks are flexible as I decide when I want to take them! My pets live harmoniously so I use a cat wand to play with 3 cats and my dog! Ivy(my dog) has more energy so I take her to the park daily to play fetch and minimum hours walks (depending how she’s feeling).

About: I've been taking care of dogs of all shapes, sizes, and ages since I can remember. I have no issues with gaining trust and comfort from dogs and can handle administering medicine and other care for them. I'm currently working part-time so I'll have plenty of time to look after your babies properly. I'm open Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday. You can text or call to check in if there's any inquiries!

About: I used to work at a rescue I had hands on experience with all types of animals. If you need someone to babysit your animal/ check in/stay over I’m your person. They can be shy/moody/crazy/loving I will still give them the love they deserve. I’m usually available, sometimes im not available on Mondays but if you let me know ahead of time I will confirm with you the dates Whatever works for you works for me, can be kenneled or not kenneled, I will follow the orders you give me. Just let me know

About: I've been passionate about animal care since I could remember and currently work with them almost every day with my career! I'm familiar with all ages of care. I'm a full time vet tech 4 days of the week and my availability is Mon-Thursday after 8pm and Fri-Sunday all day. I also have reliable transportation. I do not currently have availability to board your pet at my current residence but can provide quality care at your home with all the necessities needed for you pets.

About: I've cared for pets of all kinds-from playful puppies and curious cats to guinea pigs and even rabbits. At home, I help care for my mom's 10 month-old basset hound, making sure he's well fed, walked twice a day and kept clean. I know how important it is for pets to feel loved and secure while their owners are away, so I treat every animal like they're part of my own family. I currently work as a firefighter on a paid call basis, which means I often have days with plenty of free time. Id love to spend that time helping families by caring for their pets. Since my schedule is flexible, I can give your dog the attention, exercise, and companionship they need while you're away. Walks with me are more important than just potty breaks-they're time for fresh air, exercise and fun! I give dogs plenty of time to sniff, explore and stretch their legs, usually about 30 minutes per walk. I'm attentive to each pet's needs; making sure they feel happy, safe, and cared for every step of the way.
