House Sitting in Templeton

“Our dog Luna is older and sometimes wary of new people, but she took to Kolleen instantly-even giving her kisses. Kolleen providing the love and support Luna needed. She is exceptional and we will ask her to sit for us again. We would highly recommend her!”

“Coral did an amazing job for our three dogs while we were on vacation visiting family! She consistently sent pictures and updates on how they were doing. She let me know if she had any questions or concerns about the dogs. I would definitely recommend Coral and would use her again in the future for our pets!”

I’m happy to feed your birds, reptiles or rodents too. I’m currently working part time so, I’ll have plenty of time to care for and play with your animals. I’m also happy to taxi them to doggy day care or the vet. House sitting also available. I treat animals like my own. If they’ll let want to play or lay, it’s fine with me. I adhere to your rules but try to spoil them too.

About: I treat every animal I take care of like they are mine. All of my animals are VERY spoiled and loved and get the best quality care I can offer. I love being outside (weather isn’t a issue I’ll walk dogs in the rain/snow!). I’ve taken care of puppies that needed help potty training all the way to old senior dogs that need special medication 3 times a day. I love all breeds! I believe there are no “bad breeds”. I will love on your dog the whole time I’m with them and treat them like they are mine. I know it’s hard for you to leave your animal, so especially during the 1st couple days I will spend extra time with them to make sure they are comfortable with me and not stressed about you leaving. I also love cats. I’ve taken care of kittens and having to bottle feed them to old cats with maintenance/special lifestyles. I believe cats need as much attention as dogs. I have owned horses for 20 years. I can also care for any and all equines. I’ve worked with unhandled horses to high end show horses. I don’t mind making up grain, cleaning stalls and weighing hay as needed. The only animal I will not watch are snakes. I will happily watch any critter you have! Just no snakes. If I’m being honest I’m absolutely terrified of them. Lol! It is second nature to me. Taking care of animals is just the norm. It is always a priority to me. I’m always thinking about them and how to make them happier. I work, but it is very flexible so I am able to let out for potty breaks and give meds as needed. I will follow your routine with your animals so it’s not strange for them with a new person. They will be treated as if they are my own personal pet. Lots of snuggles, pets, love and treats if allowed! Your house will be as clean as when you left it. I always strip the bed, start any laundry, take out trash, wipe down everything and make sure all dishes are done and put away if applicable.

About: I've had Australian Shepherd dogs my whole life. I love dogs of all shapes and sizes ! I have my degree in Animal Science, and currently work in the Veterinary Field. I'm an active person- love to run and hike- especially when I have a canine partner. I have years of experience dog sitting in Orange County and Los Angeles County. Please contact me if you’d like to have your pet watched or walked in the near future. I’ve always loved animals, and am happy to say I’ve made a career in working with them. When your Dog is with me- they are considered family! I work from home when I’m not traveling and have flexibility in my schedule. Because of that, I’m available for walks, drop in visits, and petsitting. Because I work in the veterinary field, I am very tentative to pets needs and their safety. I know what signs to look for when our animals are in jeopardy regarding their health.

About: Pets are family too!! They deserve all the love and care you’d want for any other family member!! I’m here to give your furry little companion genuine care!! I’m currently unemployed looking for part time work, but pet sitting will always be around for me even when I do find part time work! Since I’m unemployed at the moment my availability is very flexible! Give them lots of attention and love, make sure food and water is available and of course make sure they’re safe and sound in their area!

“Marla responded to my texts right away. She was professional, and took good care of my dog while we were at an event. She listened carefully as I briefed her on what my dog might need while we were away and was agreeable to the requests. As it turned out, my dog was tired from all the hiking we did during the day so she slept a lot at Marla's but she was comfortable enough to do so and that was reassuring. Marla is clean and neat and she was ready for us when we arrived. I would book Marla again.”

“Nicki did a great job house sitting and taking care of our pups. Will definitely hire her again! She communicated often and sent lots of photos”

About: Hello! Thank you for taking a peak at my profile! I have taken care of dogs and cats my entire life, from my own pets to friends and family pets. I have professionally been apart of rover and cared for many dogs and cats the last couple of years but had to remake my profile due to moving states so I have only a few reviews ! *COST* I have raised my prices due to the service fees that rover charges, if you would like a reduced price, we can arrange for me to still care for you pet for walks, drop ins or house sitting and we can arrange pay through Venmo, PayPal or Cash- App. The price difference is approx 10 - 15, since that is the fee rover charges :) Animals to me are more than pets but apart of the family, with their own unique personalities and I intend to treat each one that I encounter as they would want, since again they’re all unique ! I’m currently working remote, so I have plenty of time to give attention and love to your pets ! I can provide lots of play time, treats, walks, trips to the dog park, mini hikes, etc. All up to the owners comfort level of course ! My schedule is very open and ready to accommodate for you :) I care for pets like they’re my own—with love, patience, and attention to detail. In your home, I stick closely to your pet’s routine to ensure comfort and minimize stress. I always make sure they’re fed on time, get plenty of play, snuggles (if they like them!), and outdoor breaks. I also keep the home tidy and respect your space. In my home, pets get a cozy, calm environment, safe play areas, and lots of love. Whether it’s walks, belly rubs, or just quiet company, I focus on what helps your pet feel safe and happy.

“Brooke did a fantastic job taking care of our boys and our home! She gave detailed updates and provided excellent care. Can’t wait to have her back!”

About: I’ve had a dog my entire life. All Labrador retrievers which are not for the faint of heart. My current lab I got at 8 weeks old and I have done all her training myself with the help of classes and courses from several different local trainers. I love all dogs they are such lovers. I am an active person who loves hiking, walking and going to the beach with my pup on my days off 🤍 I work part time as a medical professional and want to help with doggy care on my days off. I understand that some owners love having pets but lead a busy life so I am here to help however I can! I have a fenced yard and a 2 yo Labrador to keep your dog busy as needed. I can crate your dog if crate trained and needed as well. Safety of your pet is my utmost concern!

About: I have over 9 years of hands on experience caring for my own three dogs, which has given me a deep understanding of pet care, including feeding, grooming, exercise, and general health maintenance. Over the years, I’ve managed everything from daily walks and training routines to vet visits and special diets. In addition to caring for my own pets, I’ve also dog sat for friends, looking after dogs of various breeds and sizes. My experience has taught me how to be patient, attentive, and responsive to each dog's individual needs, making sure that they feel safe, loved, and well cared for at all times. As a college student home for the summer, I have a flexible and open schedule, which allows me to fully dedicate time and attention to pet care. This flexibility means I can easily accommodate your pet's specific routines, whether that includes early morning walks, midday play sessions, or evening feedings. I’m able to provide consistent care throughout the day. I prioritize keeping your pets active, engaged, and comforted, and I’m available for both short visits and long stays. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I truly enjoy spending time with animals, and I’m committed to giving each pet the time, energy, and affection they deserve. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize maintaining their established routines to ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and at ease while you're away. I carefully follow your instructions regarding feeding schedules, portion sizes, and any specific needs. Daily walks are done at the times your pets are used to, and I always try to make sure they get the right amount of exercise and playtime based on their energy levels and preferences. I also make sure to spend quality time with your pets whether that means playing fetch, or simply being present to keep them company. I understand how important consistency is with my own dogs, so I stick closely to your instructions, including any medication schedules, crate routines, or expectations. My goal is to make your pets feel as happy and secure as they do when you're home.

“Not only did Madeline make sure to get to know us and our pups before our trip, she made sure we knew how loved they were the entire time we were gone. We got daily pictures and updates and when we returned home our dogs were content and happy. Not only did we come home to happy, tired dogs but our house looked exactly as it did when we left. I cannot recommend Madeline more highly. She was trustworthy, caring, and flexible when we had some last minute changes. We will be asking her to watch the dogs again! She’s absolutely wonderful.”
