“Koleen was awesome! She was a super fast communicator and went above and beyond what I expected for drop-in visits. Even when my pup was misbehavving (it was ny pups first time!) Koleen kept her cool and informed me of every step she took to help the situation. I felt confident having Koleen look after my pup and would highly recommend her to anyone. Thanks again!”

About: I'm a licensed small-animal veterinarian retired from 40 years of clinical work. I'm comfortable with pets of all needs, including medical treatments. I wish to continue service to animals through providing daily care. I love being around animals of all types, including dogs, cats, rabbits, rodents, birds, reptiles, fish, horses, cattle, sheep, goats, etc. I also have a wealth of training experience based on positive reinforcement. I'm retired from clinical settings (working under my maiden name Carol Hansen, DVM), and still maintain an active lifestyle. I'm free most days. My routine is very flexible. I spend time with my own 2 dogs and 5 feral cats. I love travel and seeing wildlife worldwide. I have done pet care for my own and others' pets for most of my life. I'm very honest, trustworthy, and conscientious in making sure animals thrive in a healthy environment.

About: I have taken care of animals since I was younger. I have 3 years of experience when it comes to dog sitting and house sitting. I always make sure to accompany the pet as often as possible so that they feel cared for and less anxious being away from their owner. I aim to provide the best service and care for pets. I’m currently working full time throughout the week, but I can still find time to take care of someone’s pet before and after my shift. In a client’s home, I can feed, walk, and entertain your pet as needed. I can make sure they have water and food available before I leave to work and I can also put the pet in a crate if the owner asks.

About: I love dogs and will treat your puppy like my own. I live in my own house and will provide frequent potty breaks and playtime. Your puppy will have free access to my couch, bed, and all other living areas. I will show them great love and treat them with gentleness. I have two small dogs that are dog friendly and who are great playmates. I am a responsible and caring person. I hope that you will consider me to take care of your puppy. Feel free to contact me with questions. Thank you for your consideration. I am available full-time until the first week of August and then I will be available most weekends after that. Let me know if you have specific needs. I have a fenced yard and will be able to provide frequent potty breaks. I am home most of the time. Your dog are allowed on my furniture and bed.

About: Hi, my name is Makara! I’m a responsible and dependable college student with three years of pet sitting experience and over a decade of caring for my own cat. I understand the level of trust and attention to detail required when caring for someone’s beloved pet. I’ve provided compassionate care for both dogs and cats, including feeding, administering medications, and following detailed care instructions—all while keeping open communication with owners to ensure peace of mind. My background in Girl Scouts, athletics, and academics has helped me develop strong time management, adaptability, and reliability, making me someone pet owners can count on to treat their animals with the same care and respect I give my own.

When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow all provided instructions closely to ensure each pet’s routine is maintained.

I also keep the home clean and secure, and maintain open communication with the client through updates and photos to provide peace of mind while they’re away.

“Jennifer helped with walking and feeding our pug, Winnie, a couple times during a day when we were away. She was extremely responsive and eager to understand Winnie's personality and preferences. Jennifer stayed in touch so we knew when she was there and how Winnie had responded. It was very reassuring to have such an enthusiastic and concerned caregiver helping with Winnie while we were away. We will definitely plan to contact Jennifer the next time we need some help!”

About: I work FT, weekdays 7:30am-4:30pm, but available all other hours, and all weekend. I'm in Morro Bay, an Oregonian import, and living on a sailboat. If you don't want your dog on the water, no problem, we'll go to the beach, hikes, and dog parks. I'm happy to spend all my time with dogs, hence the low low rates. I don't mind lazy dogs, especially if house sitting, but I'd prefer the owners who want there dog to get as much fun and attention as we can so we can both be active together. I have had a dog in my life for over 30 years, I recently volunteered at a Malaysian Dog rescue (cared for 13 feral pooches). My former partner was a dog trainer (so I have extensive knowledge in the field and back up advice on hand) and our dog was a service dog that we trained. Dogs naturally like me, and I'm able to lure even the most timid dogs by way of patient and persistent love. That's why they always eventually trust me, because I genuinely love them. All of them (bad repped too, most of my dogs have been pit mixes). I'm also a great fixer and handyman if needed. Weekends are wide open, Week nights too, but weekdays I work 7-5. Weekends are wide open, Week nights are too, but weekdays I work 7-5. I'm on a sailboat, so if its home stay, pooch needs to be able to be lifted (under 60lbs). Otherwise there will be minivan rides, walks, or park play.

About: I am reliable and very responsible with all fur babies! I am confident in CPR for animals, but still working on certification. I have a deep passion for animals, and it translates through the way I interact with them! As I pursue my masters in psychology online, I like to fill my time helping out families as I raise money for my education! Currently, I have live online classes monday 3-9:30 and I am a clinical intern in the mental health field. Those work hours very, but I like to keep them strictly to Tuesdays and Thursdays. Depending on needs, I can be very flexible! Many services I provide include walking, housesitting, potty training, bathing and other basic needs. I want to keep your fur baby busy throughout the day!!

About: As the token "animal lover" friend and family member, I've been the go-to for all things caretaker since I was young. It's my pleasure and joy to spend time with animals; I'm extremely attentive, love to give pets and cuddle. As a pet owner myself, I always worry if the sitters I have to watch my babies are going to be attentive enough and really ensure that they feel loved-- so that's always my MO. I currently work from home with a super flexible schedule, so I'm easily able to accommodate last minute requests as well as regularly scheduled visits for your fur babies! I'm a cuddler, and love to go on multiple daily walks myself, so you never have to worry about me just "checking the box" and leaving. I love to hang around, am very present with my visits, and big on cuddles. I believe I'm the perfect fit for anyone who wants to make sure their fur babies are well loved and seeking lots of pets/ attention. When taking care of another's fur baby, I always strive to meet the animal where they are and ensure that they feel as comfortable as possible as I know missing mom and dad can be hard and produce anxiety. I'm big on giving cuddles, attention, keeping them busy and going for walks, etc. More than happy to administer medication, stick to any special routines, and keep things as "normal" as possible. I'm extremely reliable and responsible; caretaking is one of my callings in this life and I thoroughly enjoy being that resource for others :)

About: Hi! My name is Camryn and I am currently a dog groomer at a shop in Paso Robles! I have been employed there for just a little over a year now and I am loving it! Before starting my job at the shop, I was employed as a kennel technician at a dog daycare and boarding facility in San Luis Obispo for 4 years. I was responsible for ensuring their needs were met and that they were properly taken care of. This included providing meals and required medicine, play and/or exercise and proper sleep requirements including fresh new bedding, fresh water and enough room to spread out. I also have experience volunteering at the SLO County animal shelter, participated in a Vets Assistant course through Cuesta and had a job working in a local pet store as well as grooming botique. I one day hope to operate a grooming business, and have earned a certification as certified groomer through a course provided by Animal Behavior College. I have had a love for animals of all kinds since I can remember. I’ve always had pets living with me, big and small dogs, cats and more! I’ve worked with dogs with various personalities, behavior tendencies, size and temperament! I love to go on walks and love going to the beach, but am also more than happy to hangout at home! Thank you for taking the time to read about me and I look forward to working with you and your furry family member(s)! Thanks so much, Camryn I work full time at a grooming shop with hours ranging from 8:30 AM-3/5 pm. I am off all day every Sunday, with every other weekend off as well. There will be two weekends in a month that I am off all day, including Saturday-Monday. On days that I work, I am able to be present before and after work unless otherwise communicated. In any given physical emergency, I am more than willing to drive to a veterinarian of your choice. I can provide basic first aid with a doggy first aid kit as well for minor emergencies. I also have a certification in pet CPR with proof of certification available upon request.
