Pet Sitting Rio Vista

About: I personally have 11 cats in our house and seven dogs. Most of the dogs are 30 pounds or less but we also have a golden retriever and a labrador. I have some experience giving medication but depends on how open your pet is to their meds. I currently work full time hours but have time for overnight stays on the weekends. I also have time for drop in/checkup visits and walks on Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday after 6pm. On Fridays I have time for drop in visits noon or later. Exact details can be discussed based on location. I only offer services in the comfort of your own home as I have too many animals at my house to make accommodations. Having your pet remain in your home will help them feel more at ease in your absence.

About: With over 40 years of hands-on experience, this original dog whisperer brings a lifetime of calm confidence, intuition, and genuine love to every home and every tail wag. From energetic puppies to senior companions and special needs dogs requiring extra patience and attentive care, no temperament or situation is unfamiliar. Decades of working closely with dogs have built a deep understanding of behavior, health, routines, and the small details that make each pet feel safe and secure. As a trusted pet sitter for neighbors year after year, I'm known for reliability, gentle leadership, and the ability to step into any home and create an environment where dogs feel relaxed, understood, and truly cared for. As an early retiree, I’m fortunate to have the time, flexibility, and energy to truly devote myself to pets and the people who love them. Without the constraints of a traditional work schedule, I’m available on a consistent daily or weekly basis, allowing me to provide dependable, unrushed care and genuine companionship. Whether it’s regular walks, playtime, feeding routines, medication support, or simply being a calm presence in the home, I’m able to give pets the attention they deserve while giving their owners peace of mind. This season of life allows me to focus on what I enjoy most — caring for animals with patience, reliability, and heart. 🐾 I provide flexible, personalized care based on what each pet and owner need most. Whether staying in a client’s home to keep pets comfortable in their familiar environment, dropping in for scheduled visits to handle feeding, playtime, and medications, or simply stopping by for a refreshing walk and some exercise, I make sure every visit is calm, attentive, and tailored to their routine. My goal is to maintain consistency, reduce stress, and ensure each pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for while their owners are away or busy.

About: Hello! We are a family in Homecoming of Rio Vista,Ca with over 12 years of Dog/Cat sitting experience. We have 2 dogs of our own who are great companions and social with all dogs. We have a Sheperd Poodle Mix named Hershel, and a yorkie named Bruno who are super dog friendly and love to play. We also have aquariums with Tropical Freshwater fish. Safe to say we LOVE animals and would make your dog feel at home and loved while you are away. I worked Hotels for many years so I am accustomed to delivering great hospitality and will implement that in my dog sitting! I bake special fresh doggie treats and we live right by a paved "trail" with easy access for the dogs. We also have a large backyard for the dogs to play in as well. Your dog will also never go unsupervised. I ensure your dog will enjoy their stay with us and have a fun filled time. We accept all sizes, breeds and special needs! Feel free to contact with any questions and I will get back to you within the hour. Why I love dog sitting My husband and I have both had a passion for animals in general from a young age and have kept many pets such as hamsters, reptiles, etc. Dogs are really our main passion. We love being outdoors with them and learning about all the different breeds. The love we get back from the dogs we sit and the trust our clients have in us is absolutely rewarding. Meet my pets Bruno - Yorkie Hershel - Poodle Mix About my yard We have a very large backyard that is fenced in for the dogs to play in!We usually take our dogs outside to play fetch and run around every day for several hours. My experience administering medication Yes, we are, we have done this several times. We have always had animals in our lives. We have a passion for taking care of them as family and the best part of our day is spending time with them. We never cage our visitors to avoid stress. They are allowed to snoop and be anywhere we are. Our dogs are friendly and bring shy dogs out of their shells. We feed separately due to safety although our dogs are not food aggressive, some are. We have no toxins that dogs can get into, and they will never go unsupervised.

About: I’ve housed and cared for dogs and cats of different sizes and personality types simultaneously in the same house on a regular basis. Nothing’s new. If you want nightly care throughout the week and pet sitting during family trips. I can definitely coordinate with your schedule or if there are any special needs pets. I measure each personality, always create a safe zone for more timid types. Having a consistent routine for each pet to make sure there is an even amount of stimulation distributed throughout the group.

About: I used to have an auggie, which I sadly had to give away when we moved. He was very hyper and loved to play. I walked around the neighborhood with him, took him to the dog park - or played with him at home in order to tire him out. I am a college student currently taking online classes, I have plenty of time before or after class to take care of your furry companion(s) I like to make sure my own pets have a clean and comfortable environment, refilling and cleaning their food and water dishes as well as any litter. I also love to play with them and give em treats. I'll make sure to give your fur babies the same treatment!

About: I helped my parents take care of there friends dogs since I was 8 and they've taught me a lot. Also my mom worked at Petco and worked in animal care and she told me and taught me what she's learned from her experience at work with cats and other animals. I've been currently looking for a job and havent had any luck so I have a lot of free time on my hands weekdays and weekends!! When we went to go sit my parents friends dogs we would feed them every morning and evening and then let them run around in the backyard they had a doggie door in their bedroom so for the most part the dogs had access to the bathroom to go potty and come and go as they please. But when we hung out in the living room with them since there was no access to a doggy door we would let them out around 3-4 times per day we would also walk them in the morning and sunset and feed them either before or after there walk depending on their actions and vibes

About: Animals have been part of my life for as long as I can remember, and caring for them comes naturally to me. Since I was 10 years old, I’ve helped care for dogs, cats, fish, and other beloved pets — learning that every animal has their own personality, needs, and way of communicating. Friends and family trust me to walk, feed, bathe, play with, and lovingly care for their pets while they’re away. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, happy, active, and genuinely loved in my care. I’m reliable, attentive, calm under pressure, and treat every pet like family. As a gentle added touch, I’m also experienced in animal reiki, which I’m happy to incorporate during visits if welcomed by both pet and owner to help encourage relaxation and comfort. Whether your pet loves playtime, quiet companionship, or extra patience and reassurance, I’ll meet them where they are with love, warmth and care. I currently work part-time. I have plenty of time to play with your fur babies. I am available most days and weekends, including most holidays. I have a fenced dog-friendly where your dog can roam and play. I have a beautiful lawn and a beautiful tree lined neighborhood for long walks.

“Vanessa is a very clear, thorough, and knowledgeable pet sitter / communicator. She caught on very quickly to our instructions and went above and beyond in taking care of our animals. I would recommend Vanessa to anyone looking for a reliable and trustworthy pet sitter!”

About: Welcome to our profile! We are Des and Treo Bell! When it comes to pet care, our combined efforts are unmatched. Des has been raising stray cats for 14 years. Treo has been working at a pet care facility for 12. Together they have adopted two dogs, a cat and a bunny, with many more to come! We know a lot of pets require 24 hour care but some pet sitters might not be unable to give that due to schedule conflict. A problem we have taken care of by offering our 2 for 1 pet sitter special! We have lots of experience with different kinds of animals and temperaments. From chickens to lizards, we have got you covered! We also have lots of experience with young pups, senior dogs, giving medications and other varying special needs! Treo is an ASL interpreter for K-12 students, so she works during the day. Des is a security guard during the evening and an accounting student. Des takes care of the pets in the day time; morning walk, breakfast, a bit of playtime. Treo is home for the evening routine; dinner and cuddles. While we don’t offer sitting in our home, we don’t let that stop us from providing the best care in yours. We make sure to respect the space and leave everything exactly as we found it.
