“Vanessa is great! Very communicative and took her time to care for all the details. She took time to encourage our shy cats to come out, which was very appreciated. I would recommend her to all!”
“My cat hates the pet lodge and who could blame him. A pet sitter is the better option. If you want a reliable, local pet sitter in Tehachapi, I recommend Helen. I've used her a couple times for extended vacations and received daily updates with photos of my cat. My cat seems to be happy and healthy when I return home, and I have a lot less anxiety about going out of town.”
About: in my family circle when it comes to their pet sitting needs, I am always the go to. Caregiving is my specialty. I will always treat all animals as if they were my own. I work part time, and I’m also a full time college student so I don’t have all the availability in the world, but I still have room for it here and there!! I care for my own pet daily and often times pitch in for other pet owners here and there when it is needed. I have compassion for all animals and their unique situations. I will safely follow all instructions and make sure any and all pets are in a safe and secure environment to the extent of my ability.
About: Ive had pets my whole life. I’m highly experienced. Animals are a huge thing in my life. No matter the size or breed. I’m always happy to take your furry friend on a walk or anything needed. I’m full time as an animal caretaker at my main job from 5:30am to 1:30 on weekdays. On weekends my schedule is 7am-11am and I’m available after those hours.

About: What sets me apart is my genuine love and understanding of animals, especially cats, combined with my commitment to providing personalized care. I take the time to learn your pet’s unique routine, preferences, and personality to ensure they feel safe and comfortable in my care. With a deep attention to detail and experience as a cat owner myself, I’m skilled at recognizing subtle cues that may indicate their needs or moods. Most importantly, I treat every pet as if they were my own, ensuring they receive the love and attention they deserve while giving you peace of mind. As a full-time student, I’ve mastered the art of balancing responsibilities, and pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine. I prioritize the well-being of animals and genuinely enjoy spending time with them, whether it’s feeding, playing, or providing companionship. My flexible schedule allows me to adapt to your pet’s routine, ensuring they receive attention and care when they need it. Caring for animals isn’t just a task for me—it’s a passion I make time for every day, even amidst my busy academic life. When caring for pets, whether in my home or my client’s home, my priority is creating a safe, comfortable, and loving environment for them. In my home, I ensure the space is clean, secure, and pet-friendly, with plenty of room for play, rest, and exploration. I maintain a structured routine that includes feeding, exercise, playtime, and quiet time to keep pets happy and healthy. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect and follow their established routines to provide consistency for their pets. I take care to keep the space clean and secure, ensuring their pet feels at ease while maintaining the familiar surroundings they’re used to. Whether it’s walks, feeding, litter box maintenance, or administering medications, I provide attentive care tailored to their specific needs. In both settings, communication with the pet owner is key—I provide regular updates, photos, and check-ins to give peace of mind and ensure trust.
About: Worked for a vet in Boca Raton for 5 years. Started my own pet sitting job after that. My husband recently passed and could use the extra income. I am working part time but not making enough money. I will quit my part time job to take care of the pets fulltime. Thanks I won't be taking care of pets in my home. I have a older pug and 3 cats. I have a very small apartment also.
About: I have had pets all my life. I love them all…especially the doggies! We have four rescue pups, a bunny and and a bearded dragon so we share the love with all different animals. I started a dog treat bakery business a couple of years ago that’s really starting to grow, so I’m now transitioning from the 9-5 job so I can pursue my passion for animals full time. I own my own dog bakery and work from home, so my availability is very flexible. We have an 11 acre farm with 2 separate “dog yards”. I will take your dog(s) for long walks and of course playtime if they like, give them food water and treats as needed, and I’m happy to accommodate with any special requests if your fur baby has a favorite activity, treat, or any special needs.

I am currently a full time student at Unity College and do freelance work petsitting and driving for spark and DoorDash. I am looking for the extra money while I have this flexible schedule and anyway I can help my community.

I've done overnight/weekend puppy sitting for family in the past, as well as drop ins. I currently work nights in a restaurant, but I am trying to transition out of that industry. I am currently pursuing a few options, and would love to end up pet sitting full time! My house has cats and a nine year old boxer great dane mix (named Tucker) who is totally ready to let your fur baby be in charge! I have a half acre yard to play in at my house, but if we need more space we can go to Tucker's favorite place...the farm!

I will follow any instructions left, and I'm excellent with communication if you want updates.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I got my first dog at age 8! I’ve cared for my own as well as family and friends. I think of them as true family members. I have experience giving dogs injections/medications. I’ll also be available to play, feed, walk, take outside, and of course give all the treaties :) I’m an RN! I spend most of my off time with my dogs or other dogs <3 my husband also is home most days while in school and helps me with the dogs while I’m away. We’re a team! I have a fenced in backyard. It is rather small but allows our little corgi to freely roam off the leash. We have a little patio back there and often when it’s warm will sit outside and play with the dog. We allow our dog to be out and about in the home provided she is clean. She sleeps with us in the bed. We allow other dogs to stay out in the home to sleep if that is preferred and they are housetrained. If not, we do have a crate on hand we can use if away/sleeping. We have a couple neighborhoods nearby we do walk in.
