Please let me know if I can help. Thank you
“This was my first time leaving my cats while I traveled, and from the moment I met Flor, I knew I had nothing to worry about. At our meet and greet we walked through the care instructions and Flor was attentive and asked questions, which let me know she wanted to provide the best care possible. Not only do I have two indoor cats that she fed, cleaned up after and gave attention to, I also care for a small feral/stray colony that she made sure were fed and got treats. She showed up on time for every meal and sent tons of photos of both the indoor cats and the feral/stray colony. It's evident that Flor cares deeply for animals and I HIGHLY RECOMMEND her!”

“Mallory did a wonderful job taking care of my senior cat Helena while I was out of town. When I got home, Helena was her usual self- sassy, vocal, and ready to "help" with everything. Great pet sitter.”

About: I have been petsitting for about 5 years by now! I love animals! I have experience farm animals to gerbils! I also have experience with older animals and animals with medical conditions such as needing injections at specific times or medications and lotion! I am also comfortable with baby animals ! My schedule is pretty flexible, i prioritize animal needs more than anything else! I can always fix my routine around the animals needs and wellbeing. I have three dogs at my house, 6 cats, a pig, goats and chickens. I have a large yard that is fenced in. I usually recommend staying at the house the animals lives in but am open!
“Kelsey took such good care of our cat while we were away. She communicated well and was very kind and compassionate. Our cat warmed up to her quickly. I would definitely recommend Kelsey to anyone looking for quality pet care!”

“We are travel nurses and have used Ashley for the last three months, she is AMAZING. Gives the best updates on how the visit went and lots of pictures. The dogs will miss her and so will we for her great care!”

About: Lifelong pet owner with hands on dog care experience. I provide fun, safe walks, loving attention, and reliable care to keep pups happy and healthy. I’ve built dog walking into my regular schedule, allowing for dependable availability, consistent care, and reliable routines that support happy, healthy, and well exercised dogs. I care for pets by following their routines, providing walks, meals, fresh water, playtime, safe supervision, affection, and keeping their home clean while sharing regular updates.
About: Growing up I had a doggy best friend up until I was 8. Due to loving dogs and animals in general, I would be the first volunteer when asked to babysit or check up on a relatives dog. Once I turned 15, it became a weekly thing to take my aunts dog on walks or check on him while they traveled. My brother in law works at an animal shelter and that’s helped me pick up more experience when I volunteer with him. I’m currently working 7-3 on weekdays, which means I am free to take care of or check in on a doggy anything after three. Weekends I’m typically free with a few days notice. I can take care of pets in my client’s home with given instructions depending on what I’m told. Typically I would take them on a walk, play with them, and make sure they are fed/hydrated before I finish my visit.
About: 🐾 Hello! 🐾 Hi, I’m Jessica a UC Davis graduate and current vet student with over 7 years of hands-on experience in the animal care world, including 5 years as a veterinary technician. I’ve worked with all kinds of animals, from dogs and cats to birds, rabbits, guinea pigs, pigs, and even fish! I’ve been lucky to gain experience at places like the UC Davis Veterinary Medical Teaching Hospital, the Avian Research Facility, Santa Paula Animal Rescue Center, and a few others. All of that has helped shape the way I care for every animal, with patience, compassion, and attention to detail. Whether you’re booking a walk, a drop-in, or overnight care, I’ll treat your pet like my own keeping them safe, happy, and comfortable for the whole time you’re away. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I’m here to make the experience easy and stress-free for both of you. Feel free to reach out and ask questions.:) Hablo español 🌟🐾 I am working as a vet tech over the summer so my availability is mostly afternoons or Monday and Tuesdays any time. I am willing to do early morning drop ins and afternoons as well. I will do my best to fit your fur baby in to my schedule. I am fear feee and CPR/ First aid certified. I am more than happy to walk your pets multiple times a day, take them for potty breaks, do some playtime, feed them and do extra care for ex if they have prescribed meds they need. I am also open to pets of all needs such as separation anxiety, dog reactive, neonatal kittens, medical conditions, senior pets etc
“Valeria was very responsive and was able to accommodate my needs last minute. She did a great job communicating and following my instructions. I highly recommend her. My Great Dane Lyla looked very calm and happy. I received some Great photos of her!”

“Kayleigh is very patient with getting to know my shy kitty and always sends helpful updates with lots of pictures. I feel confident asking her to care for my cat regularly.”

About: I’ve been caring for animals since I was 12 years old. It all started with watching my neighbors’ pets—including cats, dogs, a ferret, and even some reptiles. Over the years, I’ve continued to care for pets belonging to friends and family whenever they’re out of town or need help during the day. I also have pets of my own—three cats and one big dog—so I understand the daily care, love, and attention animals need. I have experience with a wide range of animals and genuinely enjoy spending time with them. Caring for pets brings me a lot of joy, and I treat every animal like they’re my own. I am currently working part-time wed/thurs/friday only 6 hrs a day, so I have plenty of time. I also have my husband to take care of my furry animals when I am out busy watching your! ❤️ I don’t offer my home for over night or day care but I am happy to come to your home and take care of your animals.
About: From a young age I would house sit for neighbors and would take care of their pets, whilst they were on vacation. I've taken care of older dogs that had special needs as well. I have been walking dogs for the past 5 years as a hobby, and as a way to stay healthy. When my friend's shoulder was dislocated I walked his Grey Wolf/Husky mix for him while he recovered. I am available most days, I have full availability on weekends, and late nights (10-11pm) all week for those dogs whom prefer cooler temperature walks. I am unable to host your dog at my home currently. I'm experienced in giving older dogs their medications including pills and Insulin. I can house sit and watch your pets while you are at work, on vacation, or even if it's just date night.
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 20. My cousin relies on me to take care of her dog when out of town. I work night shift so I have time to be with your pups during the morning and afternoon. I can also do overnight on my days off. I will make sure they are being well fed and hydrated. Lots of treats and play time is a must. Can take them out for potty as many times as needed.
About: I’ve been caring for pets since I was 16, so I have years of experience with animals of all ages and personalities, from energetic puppies and playful kittens to older pets who need extra patience and love. I currently have two dogs and a cat, and I’ve raised them since they were young, so I understand the attention, training, and care every animal needs. I’m an athlete and love going on walks, so I can keep up with high-energy dogs or take long, leisurely strolls with older pets. I’m also comfortable handling feisty or shy pets, and I always focus on building trust, keeping pets safe, and making sure they feel happy and loved while their owners are away. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, cuddles, or just companionship, I treat every animal like family and adapt to their unique personality and needs. I’m willing to go the extra mile (literally and figuratively) to make sure your pets feel cared for, safe, and comfortable. I just finished school and currently work as a waitress for about 4 hours a day, which leaves me with plenty of free time. I’m looking to spend those off-hours doing something I genuinely love caring for pets. My schedule is really flexible, so I’m able to fit in walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting throughout the day and week. Whether you need regular visits or last-minute help, I’m happy to make it work around my shifts. When I’m caring for pets in my client’s home, I follow their routine as closely as possible so their pet feels safe and comfortable. I stick to feeding schedules, walk times, playtime, and any special instructions you leave. I take the time to get to know each pet’s personality whether they’re playful, shy, or extra cuddly and make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and reassurance while you’re away. I also respect your space by keeping everything clean, secure, and exactly how you left it. When caring for pets in my own home, I have a fully fenced yard where dogs can play and explore safely. My dogs are kept in my garage during visits so your dog has full freedom to roam in the yard or, if they are an indoor dog, stay inside the house comfortably. I already have two dogs and a cat, so I’m used to managing different personalities and making sure everyone feels safe and happy. Walks, playtime, and lots of love are always part of the day. No matter where your pet is, my goal is always the same: to keep them safe, happy, and loved just like they’re part of my own family.
About: I've dog-sat for neighbors, friends, family, and even strangers. I can do anything to keep your pet(s) satisfied even if that entails staying more than 8 hours in your home. Trust me, I need to get out of my own house. Im currently working part-time but I’d rather spend time with your pets than work at my boring job. So really I am available whenever you need me to be. I have no problem taking your pet(s) for walks, feeding them as often as needed, making sure they get the attention they deserve, and providing the most fun bodyguard experience possible while their owner is away. I will do anything you ask me to, so just say the word!
