About: I have taken care of dogs for the past six years and I love it! I have a 3 kids who loves animals and a small chihuahua who gets along with anyone. Rest assure that your furry family will be in great hands with daily walks and will have a room to their own when staying over night if needed. My house is pet friendly so they can definitely feel at home with watching tv on the couch with lots of cuddles to sleeping wherever they are most comfortable with. I do offer over night stays as needed and my schedule is very flexible in case of emergencies. So feel free to message me. I do work with prices to make sure you get exactly what you are looking for! I am currently a stay at home mom. So I am very flexible and I can provide services based on your needs. Last minute plans won’t be a problem! I have a fenced in back yard with plenty of running around space and shaded areas. Also I don’t mind pets being on furniture to relax indoors on these hot days!
About: I have been pet sitting for neighbors, friend, and family for 15 years and have always loved it! At one point having 5 animals of my own (including a disabled pup who needed to use diapers), I know how important it is to find quality care to truly enjoy a vacation or trip back home. I take pride in providing peace of mind by giving your pets all of the love and attention you would! I do not have a full time position so I am available for your pets at whatever time you feel works best for you and their schedule! I take direction from you, the pet’s owner. I want to add as little disruption to their daily routine as possible to keep them comfortable and happy.
About: My family and I have rescued and helped raise over four dogs, two cats, and several other animals, from tiny chihuahuas to massive great danes. I have personal experience with all kinds of pets and personalities, and I care for each one like my own. Pet care fits naturally into my week as part of my daily routine. Being a student-athlete at Coso College has helped me develop strong time-management and punctuality skills, so I’m good at keeping up with responsibilities and maintaining a consistent schedule. I would make sure to set aside time each day for feeding, exercise, attention, and general care. When caring for pets in my clients’ homes, I focus on keeping them comfortable and stress-free in their familiar environment. I follow each pet’s usual routine, from feeding and walks to playtime and bonding, and make sure they always have fresh water, attention, and affection. For dog walks, I prioritize safety, exercise, and fun, tailoring each walk to the dog’s energy level and personality.
