House Sitting Santa Paula

“Flor is amazing. She kept me updated on my girl, and took such good care of her. My dog is very anxious but Flor made her feel comfortable. Definitely will be booking with Flor again!”

About: Worked at Horizon Veterinary Hospital, so I’m calm and capable if a crisis comes up. I genuinely love long walks and give each pet individual attention, not just a quick in-and-out. I’ve pet sat for neighbors for years, so I’ve learned how to build trust with many different pets and owners. I also have 3 cats of my own, including one I raised from just a day old, so I understand what it takes to care for pets at every stage of life. I work from home, I can often be right there with your pet in their own space, no long stretches alone! I work from home, so all I need is WiFi, meaning I can be with your pets all day long, not just for quick visits. Your dog or cat gets consistent company and attention throughout the day, not a rushed drop-in. Your home is your pet’s safe space, and I treat it that way! Respectful of your space, mindful of routines, and focused on keeping things calm and familiar while you’re away. With my background at Horizon Veterinary Hospital, I know how to read pets’ body language and stress signals, so I can adjust to make sure they feel comfortable with me from day one. As a cat owner myself ( I have 3 of my own and raised one from just a day old ) I’m especially attentive to the small cues cats give when something’s off, and I bring that same watchfulness to every pet I care for.

“We wouldn't trust anyone but Kevin to watch our high-maintenance pup Jibo! The peace of mind we have knowing Kevin is in charge is priceless.”

About: I was born into a family with Saint Bernards, and over my lifetime have owned seven Saints plus an English Mastiff, a pittie mix, a cat, birds, fish, rodents, reptiles, and horses. I've been described by friends and family as a dog whisperer, and I can't help but make friends with any dog I see. I've been dogsitting for friends and family on the side for years now, doing overnight visits, extended stays, and drop-ins for potty, walks, and meals. I love cats and dogs of all sizes, but I've always had a soft spot for the giant breeds. I was a cross country runner and still live an active lifestyle, so long walks and runs are no problem. I can also do transportation to vet visits, doggy day care or walks at dog parks, etc. I'm looking forward to taking care of your furry family members! I am widely available for scheduling. I have a few steady clients with regular visits, but I can work with you and figure out the best schedule! As a lifelong animal owner, I understand the needs of many animals, as well as the feelings that owners have towards their furry friends. My initial clients were friends, but through the established trust and word of mouth recommendations, that list has grown. When doing overnight or extended stays, I will always bring in the mail, take out the trash, and perform any other household duties you may need. I've cared for sick dogs, handled emergency situations, and taken care of urine and other medical samples for my clients. Whatever you need, I can accommodate.

About: I grew up taking care of animals. I currently have one Russian Tortoise, one pug, and two chihuahuas. One is diabetic so I have experience with giving insulin injections and monitoring pet health. I have house sat and pet sat for years. I also worked at the Fresno Chaffee Zoo for one year and worked with animals and conservation. I am currently a student and have plenty of availability. I have class Monday and Tuesday from 3-7 pm, and Thursday from 4-5pm, but can work around it. I live in a an apartment in a safe community, with a gated yard. I have a doggy door for access to the yard. There are tons of walking paths around.

About: I provide dependable, attentive care for both dogs and cats, with a focus on making every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their family is away. 🐾 I have experience with dog walking, playtime, feeding, bathing, and general care, as well as cat feeding, litter box cleaning, playtime, and plenty of cuddles when welcomed. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and comfort level, so I take the time to follow your instructions closely and care for them the way you would. Whether your pet needs energetic playtime, a relaxing walk, quiet companionship, or a professional biscuit-making audience, they’ll receive patient, reliable, and loving care. 🐶🐱💕 I take scheduling and your pet’s routine seriously, and I always do my best to provide dependable, consistent care. 🐾 I work part-time most weekday mornings, but I’m available Tuesday and Thursday mornings and have flexible availability throughout the rest of the week. I’m also very flexible on weekends and holidays. For boarding, I’m happy to coordinate dates and times in advance so everything is clear and organized. You can count on me to communicate openly, arrive as scheduled, and make your pet’s care a priority. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. I make sure pets have access to fresh water, are fed properly and on schedule, and are kept in a clean, comfortable environment. I also have experience with crate training and understand the importance of using crates safely and positively. I closely follow each pet parent’s instructions and routines so your furry family member feels secure, cared for, and at home while they’re with me.

“Amanda was great with our animals, including our cat who needs medication daily. Came home to happy animals and was very happy to provide updates and pictures!”

About: I have a decade worth of experience caring for my babies. I’ve been referred as an animal whisperer, so I take first impressions very seriously. I am home 24/7, so you can trust that your babies are being attended to during their visit. That also means my schedule is very flexible and I am open to unique situations as well. My babies freely roam my home, but are very disciplined. They’re taken potty/walked ideally every 2 hours. Whatever my client needs, I will make sure I do my upmost to make it happen.

“Sara cared for our two feisty Jack Russell Terriers and did a brilliant job! We felt completely at ease going away because we knew they were in expert hands. She has our complete trust, and we will definitely be asking for her services again if her time permits!”

“So thankful to have found Leanna & Julio! We had 2 last minute cancelations and they were able to help us out to house and corgi sit our 2 boys within a weeks notice. Leanna was very communicative and immediately put me at ease leaving Stevie & Dexter in her care for a long weekend. I received several videos and loved seeing our pups so happy and getting plenty of walks! I would highly highly recommend Leanna & Julio and will definitely be using them again in the future!”

About: I’ve been taking care of animals my entire life. I have a lot of experience with big dogs & I have a pitbull. I know very well how to handle dogs who pull or can be aggressive on walks. I fostered for 3 years with SBCAS & have cared for elderly dogs, dogs with severe injuries, and other serious medical issues. I’ve also taken care of plenty of other animals including cats, rodents, & reptiles. I am trained to handle & administer medical care for cats & dogs by the Ojai Humane Society I work evenings & weekends so I’m free all day to take care of your animals while you’re at the office or out of town. Happy to take your dog on a long walk or hike. I have a high energy dog so I’m used to doing a lot of playing & running if that’s something your dog requires.

“Lacey watched our dog at our house while we were gone for a long weekend and was excellent. Our dog had a great time and we felt great knowing that Lacey was taking great care of her, taking her on long walks and giving her lots of love. Lacey is great with dogs and has a calm presence that helps keep our dog mellow. This is our second time having Lacey dog sit and we’ll definitely do it again!”

“We cannot say enough good things about Gavin! We had a last minute request due to an unexpected death in the family. Our regular sitters were not available but recommended we reach out to Gavin. He responded quickly to our request, taking a huge weight off our shoulders. He communicated frequently with updates and we could see that our girl was getting the best care. We will be reaching out to Gavin again!!”

About: Helped take care of a geriatric dog who was incontinent and lost the use of her legs in the last year of her life. I have had animals in my home all my life, from dogs, cats, birds, and lizards. I usually work a couple of days a week for half days at Michaels. I am available for check-ins most mornings and in the afternoons. I live in a condo with tons of space for running around. I have two of my own cats, and any boarders would have to be fine with them. My cats have their space. I respect any habits and boundaries you have at your house for your pet. I can brush and clean up after the pet, and play their favorite game.

“Kaitlin was a great sitter for our two cats! She spent so much time with them and they loved her! Thank you again for taking such great care of our babies.”

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.

“Gabriel was amazing with my three cats and super helpful with my house, maintenance people, etc while staying over Christmas vacation. 10/10 recommend”

“Ashley was incredible with our little Wallace. She was super communicative and sent sweet little videos of our boy every day. On top of excellent dog-sitting care, Ashley went above and beyond our expectations and tidied up our house so we could come back to a clean home after being away for so long. We already have rebooked Ashley for our next trip, and we are so grateful we found her!”

About: I have been a pet sitter since I was in middle school and have had the pleasure and opportunity to care for many different furry companions! I am no stranger to administering medications and have pet-sat many different dogs and cats of all sizes and shapes! I have no issue caring for cats and/or dogs that have any sort of deformities, amputations, or just look weird and funky in general. A dog is still a dog and a cat is still a cat, and every pet deserves love regardless of what they look like! I am currently a college student who loves caring for all kinds of fur babies! You can be sure I will have plenty of time to play with your pups and kittens to their hearts’ content! I’m still getting used to how this app works with its settings, so if you have any questions about pricing and scheduling, shoot me a text so we can discuss it! I'm willing to talk things out if you can't initially afford my rates! ¡También soy fluida en español! My clients will always receive the best care that I can give them. Every animal is different and has different needs, and I am prepared to meet them all! I'll be sure to send pictures and videos regularly of me and your pet(s) having a great time! I'm willing to protect your pet(s) as fiercely as you are, and I will happily administer medications and clean up messes! I take great pleasure and honor in making your best furry friends feel as safe and loved as they would if you were there!

“Victoria was amazing! She sent so many pictures and was always on time. Appreciate how great she was with our two kittens and would definitely have her back.”
