About: I was raised in a pet loving family. Cats, Dogs, Horses you name it Iâve fallen in love with it. I used to baby sit and walk in high school âonly for family fur babyâsâ I work a consistent 6amâ3pm schedule, allowing availability for early morning, lunch-time, and evening pet care throughout the week. Iâm also available on weekends and I have base access for military familyâs. I primarily care for pets in their own home, following their normal routines for feeding, walks, play, and medications. I focus on keeping pets comfortable, safe, and well cared for while maintaining clear communication with owners.
About: Loving and Patient Sitter! I love having to spend time with pets and giving them all the love! You trust me with your fur babies! I am currently a grad student! I can help with part time hours for your fur baby! My availability is Monday through Friday 6-8am, 3-10pm. For boarding is Thursday at 1pm till Sunday whatever pick up time you choose Iâll Be free for Sunday. I have a gated home! I also have a fur baby to keep company with yours if you are comfortable. Have toys to play with!
About: My #1 goal is to ensure you and your fur baby the security and safety the need while spending their time with my own fur family! I have 2 beautiful dogs of my own, both are rescues, also three indoor (dog friendly) adult cats. They are friendly and spoiled with lots of love, attention and walks daily. I have fostered and worked with local and bay area rescues for about 5 years off and on. Your pets will be treated as one of my own, always! I have one large kennel if needed but I'd prefer the animals to have free roam of the house and yard. They will be taken out 3+ times a day and cuddled for overnight stays. If you have ANY questions, concerns or requests please do not hesitate to reach out! Look forward to hearing from you and spending time with your fur babies, have a wonderful day! At this moment, I am home full time. All pets are let outside in the morning to do their morning business, then fed and taken for an early walk. Throughout the day I am home with them 24/7. I have a fenced in yard and another fence separating the front and back yard. I also have kennels if they are preferred or needed.
âSara was so good with my puppy! She was quick to respond to all my messages before and during his time with her, she sent pictures and videos, and was very accommodating to his needs! I know Jeff was well cared for when he was with her!â

About: I may be young with dyed hair and piercings, but I love furry, feathery, and scaly friends to the moon and back! I have an open schedule, and I try to be as accommodating as possible. I grew up with what I feel is almost every type of animal imaginable, so nothing gets past me. I have also grown up around many litters of puppies, so I have experience bottle-feeding and attending to needs. I also have dealt with animals diagnosed with dementia and other health problems they just need a little extra love and time is all! I also have handled disabled pets including missing appendages and paralysis. I love being able to give pets the attention and time they need and deserve while the owners can be worry-free. Pet care is my priority! I currently donât have a job since I just moved to this area a couple of months ago so I am completely available to give furry friends the attention they need. Since I am not in a position to take pets into my own home I try to be my absolute best wherever I am! I am a big advocate for respect not only to others but their property as well so when working with clients and their homes I hold myself to a standard of leaving everything as it was unless specifically told otherwise. Doing this can also help me build trust with the pet simply as an acknowledgment that I understand that it is their territory and I am in their space.
About: What sets me apart is the way I connect with pets on their levelâgenuinely, patiently, and with full attention. I donât just show up to feed or walk them; I show up to understand them. I pay attention to the little things: the way your cat twitches her tail when sheâs content, or how your dog likes his leash put on just right. My care goes beyond a checklistâitâs about creating a calm, familiar environment, even when youâre away. Iâm naturally nurturing, reliable, and I treat every pet like theyâre my own. Taking care of pets fits right into my everyday life. Iâm already someone who loves a calm, comforting routine and being around animals just makes that better. Whether itâs checking in during quiet mornings, giving belly rubs during breaks, or evening cuddles, it all blends naturally into how I live. Iâm patient, reliable, and genuinely enjoy spending time with pets like theyâre my own. At home, my pets are familyâand I treat them with the same love, patience, and attention Iâd give to any loved one. From keeping their routine consistent to making sure they feel safe, understood, and comforted, I believe in caring for animals with both gentleness and responsibility. When Iâm in a clientâs home, I bring that same mindset. I respect your space, follow your petâs schedule closely, and make sure they feel secure, loved, and stress-free while youâre away. Whether itâs a playful cat or a shy pup, I adapt to their personality and needs with care and kindness.
About: I never thought I would be so happy with just being around dogs until I became a handler. Itâs been a great experience and something I plan on doing for a long time. Iâm very flexible with my schedule , a days notice would be great but not required to book . During the week 8am-3pm I may not be available to walk dogs, but inquiry is recommended.Anytime before or after should be fine! I AM NOW currently boarding dogs will happily and responsibly house sit with your dog(s) , during the evening for multiple hours or overnight on weekends if needed.
About: I have had animals my whole life. I love all animals and have a passion for animals.

About: Animal Care and service was my career and my passion for many years, since I was a child. I have had the opportunity to work with and learn from several Humane Societies and Animal Care Centers over the years. Loving, Caring for and protecting Animals have always been my passion as well as serving in my community. This is my opportunity to share my home, my passion and my love for animals with your (furry) family member and I am excited about that. I have always appreciated the trust, loyalty and respect given to me by the owners that love their dogs, simply put! Itâs just a wonderful feeling to be around all that love. I am officially retired so I have plenty of time to spend with your furry family member, I also have a flexible schedule so that I can offer several Animal Care Services I have a gated front yard, fenced rear yard and a secure pool area if your dogs likes to have water fun, additional secure small Animal play Area (my Bostonâs love it). The security cameras also give that little extra feeling of safety. I have crates, dog beds and private quiet rooms for the Animals to sleep or rest in if needed so your animal always feels totally at home. (because thatâs the real goal!â¤ď¸).

âAlexis C. Is amazingâď¸ We meet with Alexis two times before our travel. I was a bit nervous to leave Yuuki so I requested to have a meet and greet and then a short visit the day before we left. Alexis was agreeable to both meetings. She is very flexible and amazing with dogs. Our shy Yuuki excepted Alexis on the second visit. Yuuki wanted to play with her on the first visit but she couldnât let her guard down. We were very pleased because Yuuki is slow to except new friends. Alexis is a dog whisperer. She is very quick to reply to messages. Alexis is very sweet, has a gentle disposition, and is very acomadating . After all of this we didnât use Alexis ? because our grandson became ill and wasnât able to take the trip, he was able to care for Yuuki. Alexis agreed to be on standby the complete week of our trip. Alexis stayed in touch and offered to come over for feedings and walks. Alexis showed such compassion. We will most definitely use Alexis for our next get away. Maria Mâ

About: Iâm passionate about providing the best care for pets, no matter their age or needs. From my experience caring for Paris, who required medication on a schedule, Iâve learned the importance of attention to detail and consistency. Iâm adaptable and enjoy creating a safe, enriching environment for pets to feel at home. Whether itâs taking a walk, giving medication, or offering companionship, I treat every pet with the love and respect they deserve. Pet care is at the heart of my daily routine. I prioritize the well-being and happiness of the pets I care for by creating a flexible, loving environment. My schedule is designed to ensure that every pet receives the attention they deserveâwhether itâs playtime, walks, or snuggles. I make sure to stick to feeding, medication, and exercise routines to keep pets feeling comfortable and secure. Each day, I dedicate time to ensure that each pet feels like theyâre getting the best care possible, no matter what their specific needs are. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets, whether in my home or yours. At my home, I ensure a pet-friendly environment with secure, pet-proofed areas for play and rest. I keep all harmful substances out of reach, and my space is designed to be cozy and calming for all pets. I take the time to understand each petâs individual needs, including their preferences and any special requirements. When caring for pets in their own homes, I maintain their routine as closely as possible, ensuring a familiar and stress-free environment. I communicate regularly with pet parents, providing updates and reassurance. Whether in my home or yours, I make sure pets feel comfortable, safe, and loved every moment of their stay.
