Pet Sitting in Riverside Park

“We had Kate take care of our kitties recently and she did a great job! Her communication is fantastic, and she's very responsive, which is what you want in a pet sitter. She followed our instructions and didn't hesitate to reach out if there was a question (another good trait for a pet sitter). We plan on using her services again, and you should too!”

About: I’ve spent years caring for pets of all kinds, and it’s truly one of my greatest joys. Whether it’s taking energetic pups on long walks, giving belly rubs and playtime, or providing extra TLC to senior pets, I treat every furry friend like my own. I’m comfortable with administering medications, sticking to special routines, and making sure pets feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. For me, pet care isn’t just a job—it’s a passion, and I love building trust with both pets and their owners. My little dog, Cranberry, is also one of friendliest small dogs I’ve ever had the pleasure of being mom to and I bet ya, your dog will love her as much as I do ✨ I love to go above and beyond for my clients. For any home visits/stays, I shall respect your space, your rules, and wishes. I want everyone to feel safe, heard, and seen ✨ also if you ever need anything above the pet care, we can chat about extra details and the such. (Ie: cleaning, watering plants, pulling weeds, etc) Xox Thank you for reading, hope to meet your sweet animal soon 🐶🐱🐭🐹🐰 I am currently looking for go back to school part time, so depending on classes, I will be able to fit pet care in on those off times. Safety and trust is of the utmost importance. Let’s create a clear conversational pathway we’re there is direct honesty of what is needed and expected and everyone will be happy ✨ I can provide picture updates whilst with your pet.

About: I have always been an animal lover since childhood and have taken care of a variety of pets of all sizes! I've helped raise puppies, taken care of senior dogs, and helped train good walking, bathing, and bathroom habits. Most animals respond very well to me. Also being a bigger person I have no trouble dealing with larger dogs. Very experienced in all areas of pet care. I am at home this summer until my college classes start in the fall to continue my degree in early childhood education. Weekends or evenings are not a problem for house sitting. Drop by mid-day walks anytime I'm available! I have a lot of availability and would love to spend my time with animals giving them quality care and attention. I am more than happy to watch your pets while you are away on vacation or gone for the day. I Can do drop bys or overnights depending on your preference and your animals needs. I have a large fenced yard that is great for animals if you need boarding. I have reliable transportation to get to and from. I can take them on walks in your neighborhood or go to a local dog park if you prefer. Very open to working with what is best for your animal. I have my own dogs at home but will leave them there while caring for your animal(s) unless you would like the socializing. We have two friendly larger male dogs that love to meet new dogs if you are interested in doggy day care or boarding. Our home has a large size dog door for pets to access the house at their convenience.

About: I have been a sitter for 4 years for friends and neighbors. My care has included walking, potty breaks, overnight care, and more! I’ve lived with Dobermans my whole life and am capable of care for any dog of any size! I am a full time student at Cal Poly humboldt, my classes are in the morning and I am completely open in afternoons, weekends and holidays! I am active and love to play with animals!! My dogs at home are escape artists so I know how to avoid an escape due to fences. I have kennel trained multiple of my dogs and prefer to use kennels for bigger dogs.

About: Hi! My name is Cora. I'm 67 and throughout my life I can't remember a time I haven't had a pet. Animals are constantly a huge part of my everyday life. I swear, I'm living for these animals! LOL! I live very close to the Avenue of the Giants. I noticed families needed a safe, caring spot for dogs to hang out while they explored the redwoods. My solution was to start a pet-sitting business on my property. The past few years have been full of belly rubs, cuddles and repeat clients. I'm excited to meet your fur babies! Pet care is my daily routine. I'm here serving my three dogs. I wake up to feed them and I walk them daily. They love to meet new friends! I have a fenced, sunny yard that is very close to redwood groves. I love to take a walk in the woods with dogs it makes me feel safer.

“Miranda did a fantastic job! When we got back, our cats seemed very relaxed and she kept their litter area very tidy as well. Miranda even made sure to take photos and make “report cards” as well. Very happy we hired her and will definitely do so again in the future!”

About: I take care of many dogs and have had them at my house or stay at their owner’s house. Either way I am very comfortable with all sorts of animals.

Walking, running, playing, fetching, snuggling, hugging, and giving praise for being a great dog is what I specialize in:)

About: I've always felt proud of my ability to get along with all kinds of creatures. Growing up, I was the kid who would petsit for all my friends' families. Nowadays, I'm the proud mama of a spunky Chihuahua, a beautiful tuxedo kitty, and a quirky bearded dragon. I work from home with a flexible schedule. I'd love to have an extra reason to get out of the house. Plus, walking is my favorite way to exercise. Just like us humans, no two dogs or cats are the same. So when it comes to any special needs, I always appreciate having clear directions to follow.

I’m currently working part time but I am able to work in caring for your pets easily. I live out in Carlotta but driving far distances does not bother me I will treat your pet the same as if it were my own pet with all the love and affection that they deserve, I take caring for pets extremely serious because I have my own dog and would want the same for him if he was in someone else’s care🩷

About: I have had cats and dogs for my whole life, and currently have three cats, and a giant breed dog who I have trained since he was a puppy. I care very strongly about the welfare and happiness of pets, and want to take the best care of them possible. I am good at following instructions and I take my responsibilities seriously. I above all want to make sure that people are happy with my services. I have been accepted to a foreign exchange program that has now been deferred to January, as they were unable to find a host family in the country. So until then my schedule is completely free and flexible. I have a great pyrenees akita mix who weighs about 110 pounds, who I trained from a puppy. I also have three cats, plus a family of friendly strays who live in the back yard. I have cared for dogs and cats my whole life and will do a great job of pet sitting and dog walking. I will do all I can to make sure your pets are very happy and follow any special instructions that you may have regarding their care.

About: I have many years of experience with working with pets of all types! I also have rescues of my own, so I understand the need to be attuned to different fur baby personality types. I am confident that your pet will be safe and loved in my care, and will strive to meet their every need as best I can. I understand how stressful it can be to trust your loved one with someone while you're away, I've been there so I have a lot of empathy for the needs of both you and your pet and I will always keep their safety as my priority. I currently work full-time every other week at the hospital, so I am available bi-weekly for pet care. I am happy to care for pets over weekends and holidays. As a responsible pet caregiver, I prioritize safety and trust in every drop-in visit and dog walk.

By establishing a caring relationship through thorough introductions and consistent routines, I create a safe and trustworthy environment for pets and their families.
