Cat Sitting in Santa Ynez

“Emily was so great with Ringo. My guy has pretty bad separation anxiety but she was so patient and caring with him. Will definitely use her again when we are back in town.”

About: I have always pet and house sat for neighbors, family friends, my family, my girlfriend's family. I am a home body and enjoy watching over and protecting people's homes and beloved animals while they are away. I am always apprehensive leaving my pets alone with a stranger, that is why I strive to make people feel safe and comfortable. I have always been an animal person and have done pet-sitting as a favor to people. I figured, now as a nineteen year old, why not make it a nice little side hustle to earn some extra money for college. I live in Solvang California and I work a part time job on the weekdays. Other than that I can walk dogs, do drop in visits and I can stay in your house to watch over your animals. Each pet is unique, I appreciate when owners walk me through their routine, leave notes and emergency contact info, if anything were to happen. I want to make both the animals and owners comfortable, and like everyone to be on the same page. Communication is very valuable.

“Adoria is an amazing pet sitter. She is a pet person in every sense of the word, our fur babies just gravitate towards her. Whenever in town she watches our dogs and they absolutely lover her. Yours will too!!”

About: I have experience caring for multiple dogs, and currently, I am the proud parent of a 6-year-old Jack Russell Terrier. Your furry friend will receive ample love and entertainment under my care. I tailor walks and exercise routines to meet the unique needs of each pet. I am currently working from home and have an flexible schedule to care for your fur child. I can easily make time for more active exercise routines like hikes and runs. I have a fenced yard and my own Jack Russell Terrier that keeps me active. I can visit with or without my dog . All walks can be customized to each pets' needs.

“Having known Lisa personally and as a pet caregiver, I've witnessed her exceptional dedication and genuine love for pets firsthand. Her responsible and caring nature makes her the perfect choice for any furry friend's caregiver!”

“Meighan did a wonderful job watching my cat, Meepers. Meighan was careful to check on her and send me photos. She even confirmed I came back. I'd definitely book Meighan for my sitter needs in the future. I recommend her to others as well.”

About: Pets have always been in my household since I was a child. Growing up, my best friend & I would hang out on his farm on the weekends where I truly connected with caring for pets. My personal activities of meditating and connecting with nature through physical activity help me connect with animals. Pet owners constantly appraise me for seeing there pet friends be calm & tranquil under my care. Leading with your heart makes pet care not a job but a loving experience for the little ones when your away from home. Time management is my strong skill with my administrative experience and can incorporate pet care during my downtimes. Also flexible if a pet has a certain schedule/ routine. Don't believe I can have pets in my household but will be checking in with the app yo disable this service to allow pets in my household.

“Heather was amazing, her check in’s were very informative and reassuring. She went above and beyond what was asked of her. She even made an emergency run over to the house with no complaints, very prompt and very caring. Our first time leaving all the cats alone and we were anxious. Now, we feel very confident that they will be well taken care of when we travel in the future and have Heather watch them. We highly recommend her for all your fur babies.”

“Anna was amazing with our large goldendoodle Barley. Thank you for taking such good care!”

“Thank you Megan!”

About: I have taken care of animals my whole life since I have grown up around several dogs and cats in my household. I began actually pet-sitting as a side job when I was fourteen years old. Now, at 19 years old I also housesit people's properties, walk dogs, provide drop-ins, and stay overnight to watch over pets. Not only have I taken care of cats and dogs, but farm animals as well including goats, sheep, horses, ponies, alpaca and chickens. I love being around all kinds of animals. I like to keep very open and quick response time with my communication. I want to make the owners feel safe and comfortable with me watching over their fur babies and their home. I am a part time student at Allan Hancock Community College in Santa Maria, and commute on weekdays from the Santa Ynez Valley. I work a part-time job on weekends as well. I have housesitting gigs and babysit whenever I am not at school or work. Through Rover, I am hoping to gain more regular clients and meet new people and their adorable fur babies. I enjoy quality time with cats and dogs. Am able to watch over farm animals as well. I stay on top of things and am very proficient. I appreciate through instructions, since each owner is particular with their routine with their pets. I am very flexible and am excited to help in anyway I can!

“Mimi was a great sitter for our shy kitty while we were away for a week. She is very communicative and conscientious. We will book her again next time!”

About: I have grown up with large dogs since I was a young child. Growing up I frequently took care of relatives' animals when they were out of town. 3 years ago, in college, I adopted my own dog when he was 6 months old. He was completely untrained and afraid. I am proud to say that he and I both put in so much work into his training. I housebroke, leash-trained, and recall trained him on my own. He knows multiple commands and gets along with dogs of all sizes. He is one of the most important things in my life so I completely understand the love and care pet owners have when it comes to choosing care for their animals! I currently work part-time and am a law student (online). I do school from home in the evenings and spend a few hours each day studying. I am available to make 2-3 visits to your home for walks/potty breaks. I have a small fenced yard, quiet neighborhood, nearby dog park, 5 minutes from Hendry's beach. My dog is large but very gentle with small dogs and puppies. He also loves to rough house with dogs his size but is never too aggressive.

“Shaundra did an excellent job taking care iof my dog & cat for several days. The dog took to Shaundra right away. The pre-meeting with Shaundra was very helpful. I enjoyed Shaundra’s positivity, genuine love of animals and professionalism. I will happily book Shaundra again.”

“Paige is totally reliable and genuinely loves animals. I always have peace of mind when my dog is in her care. I’ve also spent a lot of time with her and watched her around animals and she treats each one like her own.”

“Dani is a sweet and responsible lover of all creatures (no matter how many legs). She is attentive and sensitive when listening to animals. She is incredibly nurturing and has entertained my two indoor cats with ease. I would trust her with my pets, in a heartbeat. Would highly recommend Dani to care your 4 legged friend!”

“My wife and I have used Macy in the past to watch our dog, Spartacus, and she has done a great job. Spartacus is always happy to see her and he seems to be having a great time whenever we pick him up. As far as dog sitting, Macy has always made herself available, and I have no complaints about her thus far. We plan to keep using her in the future”
