“Barbara is currently sitting for my dogs, I am still out of town. I will leave another review once I am home. I am trying to figure out how to leave a tip, because she goes way above and beyond. For all of the work and help she is doing for my dogs while I am gone is incredible, so I just want to throw her a tip because she more than deserves it.”

About: I’ve been caring for pets for a few years, mostly for close friends and family. Whether it’s feeding, walking, or just keeping them company while their family is away, I’ve always treated pets as my own. I often help with housesitting and babysitting as well, so I’ve learned to also juggle multiple responsibilities. I’m currently home for the summer from college, although as back to school season starts, my last day in Bakersfield will be September 15th. With no current academic commitments, I am able to build my daily routine around the pets I care for! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always do my best to keep their routines as normal and comfortable as possible. I’m not afraid to ask clarifying questions about your pets to ensure I am giving them the best care. :)

“My 2nd time booking and Breanna has been great. She has taken wonderful care of my kitties and even got one of them to come out and play. They are both scared of strangers so that means a lot!”

About: I’ve had at least 5 years of experience sitting for friends and family. I’m going to college and studying to be a Veterinarian. I volunteer at Kern County animal shelter, and my main task is cleaning puppy cages, so I have no problem getting my hands dirty. I am a college student at CSUB, studying to be a veterinarian. During the Summer, I have a lot of free time while still maintaining good availability during the school year. Even if I have classes, I would still be able to check on an animal every day. I make sure to remove anything that could potentially harm an animal (Sago Palm for cats) and if they enjoy going outside, to always have them on a leash and in my sight.

About: Hi, I’m Dominie! I offer loving home-style boarding with 2 daily walks and plenty of updates. Your dog will feel right at home. My pet care journey began with two amazing dogs- Lucky (a Lab) and Mills (a pug-chihuahua mix) whom I cared for daily over 3 years. From walks to meals, playtime to cuddles, I became part of their world and realized how much I truly enjoy caring for animals. What sets me apart is the personalized care & constant companionship your dog will receive. I work from home, so your 🐶 will never be left alone. I’m also flexible with drop-off and pick-up times to fit your schedule. Need help with transport? I offer convenient pick-up and drop-off for a small mileage-based fee. Just sit back and I’ll handle the drive! 🚗🐾 Pet care fits really well into my daily schedule since I work from home. I have the flexibility to take pets out for walks, play, or potty breaks throughout the day. I have a gated front yard that’s great for safe, supervised outdoor time. A typical day looks like: 🐾Morning walks around 7am to start the day with energy and excitement. 🐾Potty breaks every 2 hours. 🐾Midday play sessions during my work breaks (I’m always up for a game of fetch!) 🐾Evening walks around 6pm to wind down the day. 🐾Plenty of snuggles, affection, and supervision. Whether your 🐶 is playful or prefers a chill day indoors, I adapt to their needs and comfort level. My goal is to make them feel safe, loved, and right at home while you’re away.

“Poppy always enjoys her visits from Joshua and their walks to the park. I always get videos or pictures so that I know she is doing well.. He takes great care of our sweet pup!”

About: While I haven’t had formal pet care experience, I’ve grown up around animals my entire life and have always taken care of my own pets. I understand how important it is to give them love, attention, and consistent care. I’m comfortable with daily routines like feeding, walks, playtime, and giving lots of affection. I may not have professional training, but I’m reliable, gentle, and genuinely care about the well-being of animals. I treat every pet like family! I currently work part-time at Chipotle, which gives me plenty of free time to care for your little ones. I’m available in the mornings, early afternoons, and on weekends! When visiting a client’s home, I make sure to follow any specific instructions to keep their pet safe and comfortable. I always double-check that doors and gates are secure, and I pay close attention to the pet’s behavior and surroundings during walks and playtime. I believe in building trust through patience, gentle handling, and creating a calm, fun environment where your pet feels safe and cared for

“Jeanette is local to me and was very pleasant and easy to talk to. We have cameras so I was able to track her visits and watch her spend time with the dogs. Our agreement was to just feed my 2 dogs twice a day, but she went above and beyond. She brought my mail and packages into my garage and spent time playing with our German Shepherd and Beagle. She was "on Task" and on time every day. I would definitely use her again.”

Morning dog walks serve as an excellent way to start my day, offering a refreshing and active break before lectures. My afternoon and evening hours after classes are then dedicated to additional dog walks, feeding, and personalized pet interactions.

About: I actually have 5 cats of my own. I work with rescues and fosters when I can. And I feed all of the stray cats outside lol. I have a big heart and love all animals. I have a pretty flexible schedule. I work 4 hour shifts so after my shifts I can take care of the animal and then go back to work when needed but I’m free every 4 hours so I have a good amount of time to care for animals. I definitely prefer Sitting at your home because I love the animal to be in its day to day environment and feel safe and at home and have everything they need but yes if needed I am able to watch cats and some dogs at my home

“Truly truly truly appreciate all of the hard work that went in to making my dog feel comfortable and taking the time to connect with him! These guys did an amazing job loving on our dog and problem solving different challenges that arose. Highly recommend!!! A+++”
