House Sitting in Riverbank

About: I've been an avid animal lover for most of my life. I've had the amazing experience of dog sitting for 4 awesome dogs and taking care of my own dog Max for 11 amazing years. I've worked with dogs old and young (4-11 years of age), big and small (12-110 pounds). Although I haven't been given a chance to petsit for cats yet, I would love to be given an opportunity. I've loved every experience I've had with these amazing pets and hope to extend the same courtesy to your furry family members. I am currently a contract worker so my schedule is pretty free Monday-Friday whatever time of day. I am also available for whatever weekends you see open in my calender. My calendar is currently updated through August of 2026. I am very meticulous when it comes to following whatever rules and regulations pet parents put in place. I make it my goal to provide the best experience for the owners piece of mind on the quality of care for their fur babies.

“My first time using Rover and it was a great experience. My animals obviously loved Amanda and it was apparent they were well cared for. Definitely scheduling Amanda again.”

“This is the second time Aarón has taken care of my home and my fur babies. He is reliable and my pets really like him. He always sends pictures and communicates very well with me easing my mind when I have to be away from home and my dogs and cats.”

“Katie did a great job watching our dogs last night! She was reliable, easy to communicate with, and took great care of them. We came home to happy pups and really appreciated having someone we could trust with them. We would definitely have her watch them again!”

About: I’ve cared for animals for most of my life and have always been someone friends and family trust with their pets. I’m calm, patient, and attentive, and I take the time to understand each animal’s personality and needs. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, and maintaining routines so pets feel safe and secure while you’re away. Whether a pet is energetic, anxious, or more independent, I adjust my approach to what works best for them. I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, and I aim to provide dependable, gentle care every time. I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets consistent attention and care throughout the day. I’m available for drop-ins, walks, and house sitting, and I pride myself on being as reliable and communicative as possible. I’m happy to work with your pet’s routine and can adjust timing as needed to help them feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I focus on creating a calm, safe, and respectful environment for every pet. I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding routines, medications if needed, and any specific preferences your pet has. I’m attentive to behavior and body language, especially with shy or anxious animals, and I always prioritize their comfort and safety. I also respect your home and space, keeping things clean and secure while you’re away. I’m happy to provide updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands!

“Makayla so obviously loves animals! Our 11 month old Lab “puppy” is crazy about her and could care less when my husband and I leave. I don’t need to worry at all while we’re away, plus we get photos and updates too. She’s intelligent, caring and personable. We will most definitely call on her again. Jan &Tex Billings”

About: Growing up on the farm, there was no shortage of canines in my life starting very early. Companions, service dogs, working dogs, strays who wandered up and never left, I’ve taken care of almost every shape and size of dog! Starting with the chocolate lab I saved up for from my local rescue at 8 years old, to my most recent geriatric chihuahua, I love them all! I’m an artist with a very flexible schedule looking to fill a need in my community! I can accommodate nearly every shape and size of situation—especially holidays and last minute bookings! As someone with very high standards, I only wish to provide the services that I absolutely expect for my pets! You can always count on me to follow your instructions thoroughly and to the letter; your pet’s healthy and safety and your satisfaction as an owner is of the utmost importance to me!

About: I have a 5 year old rescue that we raised since she was a puppy. I have experience with dogs of all ages and can adjust my style of care to meet your dogs needs. Sometimes more intensive exercise can be hard to find time for when owners are working during the day. I am more than happy to take your pup on a run with me around the neighborhood for those high energy pets! I will work with you to make sure I am providing the care that you want for your pup. I am available throughout the mornings and midday during the work week. If there is a specific schedule you would like to keep, please let me know and we can figure something out. Please see my availability for more details. I focus on making sure your pup gets the attention and care they need while I am with them. Being home for hours can be stressful for pets, and I am happy to provide some care for them while you are away.

“Bethany was great!! I’ve never left our boy alone overnight and she came through last-minute so we could attend a wedding. Super grateful and impressed with her professionalism! Plus the photos were cute ?”

About: All my life I’ve had animals . I’ve had everything from Min Pins to Pitties. They rely on us and deserve the best care and environment. I am currently a stay at home mom. I am home all day except to drop off and pick up my child from school. Weekends are usually spent at home relaxing in the backyard. I have a fence in backyard with a doggy door that allows animals to come and go through out the day. I let dogs on the couch to cuddle. 🥰

I have experience with both big and small dogs, including caring for my aging and sick pup through the end of her life. I’ve also rescued several pitbulls, which taught me patience, compassion, and how to build trust with dogs from all backgrounds. I treat every dog like family and always strive to provide safe, loving, and attentive care.

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs be them my own or families since I was five years old. It wasn’t until I was about 12 that I began to realize just how big the responsibility of taking care of another living thing was. I love dogs and for the most part they love me, my friends and family call me the dog whisperer because once I get close enough to a dog we instantly become friends. I do know how take care of dogs and understand that it can’t be play time all the time, I have been training dogs for a few years now and know how to get them to listen. This is a great opportunity for me not only as a job but as a hobby, thank you. I am currently taking online courses for college Monday-Friday from 10am-4pm. I can work all day on weekends and weekdays depending on my homework schedule. I am very gentle with pets be them my own or pets of friends and family. I like to play catch with them and give them lots of belly scratches. I feed my pets twice a day, have water for them all day, and take them on walks twice a day.

I have experience training puppies, including reinforcing basic commands, leash manners, crate training, and consistent routines that support positive behavior development. I have also worked with senior dogs and understand the additional patience, attentiveness, and comfort focused care they require. I am comfortable administering medication and following detailed care instructions to ensure pets stay healthy and safe. As a college student working part-time, I bring strong time management skills, responsibility, and dedication to every booking, treating each pet with the same level of care and consistency I would expect for my own. I am a student at Westmont College located in Montecito, CA but currently on summer break. I have a very flexible schedule and would love to fill that time enjoying time and taking care of your animals! My pets are very cared for, they are treated like family because they are. You can trust that I will give every and any animal on my care the utmost respect and love, and I will always let owners know if I notice anything out of the ordinary.

About: I, Amy, have done pet sitting before and cared for all sorts of breeds/sizes and special needs for dogs and cats. This account is a little older and was inactive so I’m hoping to build some clientele again :) I love to update clients with pictures/videos and text updates, whichever is your preference. If you prefer more or less updates that works too! Each care is specialized for your pups/cats. I always keep a close eye and note every possible allergy, favorite toy, favorite snacks, to dos, donts etc. you will never have to worry about me forgetting anything about your pet(s). Feel free to ask any questions, I look forward to working with you and your family. I work full time but the availability shown are my days off so I can give 100% of my attention and affection to your little ones. I send picture updates as well without you having to ask so you can enjoy your day(s)/vacation worry free! (As many or as little you’d like)

“Regina is amazing. She took amazing care of my sweet senior pup Bodie. She was patient with him as he is a little stubborn on walks with new people. She left my apartment sparkly clean and was super communicative. I’m so glad I found Regina and I hope to have her watch Bodie again soon. Highly recommended.”

“Super friendly dog lover! The boys loved her. She kept me updated with pictures and made our weekend getaway a little more relaxing knowing our furbabies were in good hands!”

About: I've always loved taking care of animals. When I was little I had big plans of having a shelter for dogs, cats and horses. I had even planned out the cost. Two neighborhood cats took shelter in our home and garage had three litters with us, that had further sparked my young passion for pet care. Later in life I had taken care of neighbors and families pets. I also worked with and assisted a woman with a dog grooming service (and the occasional cat) which taught me a lot more about animal temperament and handling. I adore animals and would be honored to give your fuzzy friends my best care! I work part time at TJ Max I get my work schedule a week ahead and normally im scheduled for 1 to 2 days for 4 hour shifts. If I were to pet sit for you I would only need be away for 5 hours at a time if I'm shecduled (considering drive time). I am starting school this fall working toward becoming a nurse, so being able to work with animals in the meantime is a blessing. Through the week I care for my cat and my aunts dog. my kitty gets soup time nightly (wet food) and my aunts dog takes two walks a day. In my experience every animal has their own routine they need to feel comfortable, and I am happy to learn and apply it to give the best care possible!

“Leah was amazing, she stayed at our house and watched our 2 dogs and our kitten. She was polite the animals liked her, she sent us pictures and was a good communicator. Would definitely recommend her, she is very trustworthy.”

About: With a knack for creating engaging social media content, I keep pet parents updated with fun and heartwarming snapshots of their furry friends during their stay. My attention to detail ensures every pet’s unique needs are met, from dietary preferences to favorite playtime routines. I’m dedicated to making each pet feel safe, loved, and right at home while you’re away! As a full-time realtor and proud cat mom, pet care is a natural extension of my daily routine. My flexible schedule allows me to balance property showings and client meetings with giving pets the love and attention they deserve. Caring for my Scottish Fold, Besitos, has taught me the importance of patience, consistency, and understanding each pet’s unique personality. Whether it’s a midday walk or a cozy evening cuddle, I’m committed to ensuring pets feel safe, happy, and cared for throughout their time with me. In my home, I provide pets with a clean, safe, and welcoming environment, complete with a securely fenced yard for play and exploration. I prioritize comfort by creating cozy resting areas and ensuring they feel right at home. When caring for pets in their own space, I treat their home with the same respect and mindfulness as I would my own. I pay close attention to routines, special instructions, and unique needs, ensuring each pet feels loved and secure, whether at my place or theirs.
