Pet Sitting Southgate

About: I own a 7 year old shorkie(shitzu yorkie mix) and a 2 year old high energy whippet dog. I have taken care of my neighbors and rancher grandparents dogs and animals since I was 10. I am currently a freshman at CSM who plays volleyball. I have practice and school every day from about 8 am- 3 pm. My weekend are mostly free. I have a fenced in yard, a large safe house for animals, two friendly small dogs, and a cat who gets along with dogs and other cats.

About: My name is Abby. I am 18 years old and grew up in a small town called Lynden. I am currently attending Olympic college to later Pursue a career in Obstetrics(care for tiny humans). I play collegiate softball at Olympic College and have learned so much from my team. Understanding perseverance and discipline is huge in supporting the teammates you have around you. Back home my sister and I cared for a litter of 6 puppies from a rescue Shitzu. Caring for these puppies was an amazing experience to understand that proper care for a dog starts at birth. There relationships begin to develops with those around them by interactions and reoccurring events in there lives. I hope to provide your dog with the care that they deserve. I am currently a student getting my degree in Respiratory Care, as well as a former collegiate athlete. As a lover of animals what better way to help others give their pets the attention they need and keep myself active. My cat Ramen gets lots of pets, cuddles, and treats. We also love to bring her things from outside so she can be stimulated by new scents and let her out on the back patio to soak up the sun and chirp with the birds. I would care for your pet with the same attentive care I do my own cat.

“Cameron is absolutely amazing. He took care of our 3 cats for a few days and did a great job. One of our cats is very difficult and poops on the floor instead of pooping in the litter, but he was great at cleaning, for which we were really grateful. He is very good at communicating and very reliable. We are very grateful we found him and we will use his services for sure in the future.”

About: I love dogs of all breeds and sizes! I had a yellow lab growing up and have rescued 3x dogs since. I will be in the area for a few years of grad school and would love to care for your dogs! Same day bookings accepted! I’m flexible on timing and only have a class schedule to contend with, so I am typically free most mornings and evenings. I am comfortable around all types of dogs. I can run with or extensively play with your high energy dog, if requested! For the more senior, sleepy, and smaller dogs, I give great pets!

“Sarah did a great job in taking care of my cats! She was responsive, professional, and took super cute photos. I also really appreciate the brief text updates after every visit.”

About: I am a big animal loving person and I like to spend time outside and I would love to take your pets on walks to help them release energy and spend time with them! I am a soccer player for a college and I am also a college student. It is hard to find ways to make more money but when I heard about this I thought it was perfect because I love animals and what better way to make money if you love to spend time with animals! I care for the pets the way that the owner will want me to, every owner is different so I want to keep that consistent to not confused the pets. On the other hand, my own pets are very spoiled and loved. They are trained but they know they are very spoiled and are treated very good. They are living their best life!

About: Dogs have been part of my life since I was 10. I've cared for everything from toy breeds to large breeds, and neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me for years to walk, feed, play with, and check in on their pets. Every size and energy level is welcome here, including puppies and senior dogs, and I'm happy to give oral medications on schedule (I don't administer injections). Safety comes first: dogs stay leashed on walks, your instructions get followed to the letter, and I make a point of knowing where the nearest emergency vet is. My afternoons are flexible, which makes me a great fit for midday and after-work walks and drop-in visits. You'll hear from me on every single visit - photos, our GPS-tracked route, distance covered, and notes on how your dog did, because I'd want that same peace of mind. Let's set up a quick Meet & Greet so your pup and I can get acquainted first. My afternoons are flexible, so weekday middays and after-work hours are when I'm most available for walks and drop-in visits, and weekends are wide open. I keep my Rover calendar updated daily and reply to messages within minutes. For regular clients, I'm glad to hold a standing weekly slot on the same days and times each week so your dog's routine stays predictable. Most of my care happens in your home, so respecting your space comes first. Written instructions get followed exactly, doors and gates stay secured, everything is left the way I found it, and your address and entry details are never shared with anyone. On walks, dogs stay leashed the entire time, I stick to routes I know well, bring water on warm days, and check paws and coat afterward. Before the first visit I make sure I have your vet's contact information and the location of the nearest emergency clinic. After every visit you'll get photos and a written recap, so you always know exactly how your dog is doing.

“Jess was awesome! We had a change of plans last minute before the Memorial Day weekend and I was able to find Jess the day before we left. We scheduled a meet and greet the day we were leaving to give her the rundown on how to take care of our dog (Bella), 3 guinea pigs, and rabbit. She took it all in and exceeded my expectations as I was expecting a phone call or message about something but I never did. She absolutely took great care of all of our animals!”

“Rachel was amazing with our cat, Jasper! She was communicative, thoughtful and clearly genuinely cares. Her updates were detailed and reassuring and she went above and beyond—bringing in mail, spending extra time, and even leaving a sweet handwritten note and photo. Jasper clearly adored her and we felt so at ease while away. Highly recommend and would absolutely book again!”

“Caitlin watched our dogs for a few days instead of a dog hotel and she was wonderful. Always sent us photos and our dogs loved her company. Would definitely recommend.”

About: I’m a student looking to help out with some local pet care and housesitting while i’m home for the summer. I’m vegan, I live alone, and I genuinely love animals and have a lot of flexibility with my schedule so I'm more than happy to keep your pets company, stick to their regular routines, daily walks, and make sure everything is taken care of. I'll always send plenty of photo updates too so you know they're doing great. I've taken care of dogs and cats for neighboring families and friends for many years, so I'm super comfortable handling pets with various different personalities and needs. I’m home for the summer and my schedule is incredibly open and flexible right now. Since I don't work a job, I have plenty of free time during the week and on weekends to hang out with your pets, stick to their routines, and make sure they're taken care of as if they are my own. Safety is the main thing for me. I always double-check locks and gates, follow whatever feeding or walking instructions you leave, and keep a close eye on them. I've watched dogs and cats for family and friends for the past two years, so I know what kind of things can go wrong and how to keep everyone happy and safe.

About: I grew up surrounded by dogs thanks to my dad, who is a veterinarian and ran his own animal hospital in Europe. From a young age I loved helping out at the clinic, learning how to care for animals and building a natural connection with dogs of all kinds. I am now moving to Stanford to study a master’s in medicine, and I really miss having dogs around. Spending time with them has always been something that makes me happy, so I would love to take care of your dog and give them the same love and attention I would give my own 🐶 I am friendly, responsible, and attentive to each dog’s needs. También hablo español! My schedule can vary day to day, but I do my best to stay flexible. Feel free to check my calendar and send me a message to confirm availability. I will be based in Stanford starting mid-September! When I care for your pet in your home, my priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well looked after in their own environment. I follow their usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, and any specific instructions you provide. I make sure they always have fresh water, plenty of exercise, and time for play and companionship, not just quick visits. If your dog needs medication or any special care, I’m attentive and careful to follow directions closely. I also keep their space clean and make sure they’re relaxed and settled while you’re away. I love keeping you updated, I’ll send photos, videos, and even little collages of our walks so you can see where we’ve been and how many miles we covered. Looking forward to meeting your dog 🐶

“I’m so happy we found Trina! She kept me updated the entire day with our pup Honey, everything went smoothly. Would definitely recommend and rebook with her. Thank you Trina ?”

“Meg is great. She came over to meet the boys prior to scheduled drop ins and listened to me ramble on about the last minute trip that had me suddenly in need of care. Seeing my cats emerge from their hiding places to examine her put my anxiety at ease and I really appreciated the extra time she invested in a meet and greet. Meg posted daily updates with photos that made me smile as I could see my cats were doing well and the house, still standing. If you're looking for someone with good energy to come into your home, it's Meg. Thanks Meg! Sending you cat blinks from Hercules and Yesterday!”

“Guilherme did a great job with our dogs! He was timely and provided a lovely update about his visit. We’re very thankful he has been able to help when we need it!”

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and caring for them is something I genuinely love. I have years of professional pet care experience, including completing more than 400 dog walks, and I’ve cared for dogs of all different ages, sizes, breeds, personalities, and energy levels. I’m also a yoga and Pilates instructor, so staying active is a big part of my everyday life. I’m happy to take an energetic pup on a long, active walk, but I’m just as comfortable slowing things down for a senior dog or a pup who prefers to stop and sniff every few feet! Most importantly, I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care. I treat every animal with patience, affection, and attention to their individual needs. Whether your dog needs exercise, companionship, playtime, or simply someone dependable to keep them company, my goal is for them to feel happy, safe, and loved while they’re with me. I truly love animals and would be delighted to get to know yours! 🐾

“Caroline is awesome ! She is punctual , communicative, caring and compassionate. We feel so safe with her taking care of our pup and staying at our home.”
