House Sitting Templeton

About: With more than 15 years of pet-sitting experience, I bring a lifetime of genuine love, patience, and dedication to every pet in my care. I understand that leaving your furry family member with someone else can be stressful, so I make their comfort, safety, and happiness my top priorities. What sets me apart is the personalized care I provide. I take the time to learn each pet’s unique personality, routine, preferences, and needs—from favorite toys and walking routes to feeding schedules and special instructions. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, elderly, or needs extra attention, I treat them like family and make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. With me, your pet receives more than basic care—they receive companionship, affection, and plenty of one-on-one attention. My goal is for every pet to feel at home and for every pet parent to have complete peace of mind. 🐾💕 I’m currently working full time but I’m self employed and make my own schedule so I can sit and walk pets around my schedule and I can pet sit overnights. I will care for them like my own and abide by the owners inside and outside rules and regulations. I adjust to different circumstances or situations.

“Marla was very easy to work with. She has a calm and flexible demeanor. She took good care of our Maizie in our home, allowing us to feel comfortable and relaxed when we were away. We highly recommend Marla for pet sitting and look forward to calling on her in the future!”

“Pauline went "above and beyond" accommodating changes in our plans due to rain, and always responded quickly to my messages! Pauline & Richard showed up promptly for our house sitting -- they quickly bonded with our doodle who we knew was in good hands getting lots of play and attention. Many thanks again for the flexibility with weather rescheduling!!!”

“Cami was so great with my pets. We truly appreciated all of the photos and updates on their antics while we were away. We would definitely recommend Camryn to take care of your pets! She is so sweet and my Riley loved her.”

“Coral was fantastic with our dogs and cat- they loved her! She took great care of them and our home while we were away. She is everything we were looking for in a pet sitter- warm and kind, responsible, excited to have fun with our animals, and great at keeping us updated and informed throughout her time at our house. We appreciate her and look forward to having her sit for us again soon!”

“Ten ⭐️! Robyn came to our rescue with a last minute booking. She took extraordinary care of our senior Golden and two cats. We were sent videos of play time, brushing and belly rub time… our pets adored her. I read all her five star reviews and have to agree she is the best pet sitter we’ve ever had- and we’ve had many!”

About: I have grown up with and taken care animals since I can remember from dogs and cats to fish and birds to even chickens! I have watched puppies and senior dogs. I currently work from home as a secretary so I have a lot of free time in between calls and invoicing to love on and care for your pet. I also can work anywhere, not just at home. With the help of my fiancé, Tristan, we will definitely take care of your pets with care! I can take care of your fur baby like you would depending on your preferences. I can crate your pet if needed and take them on the walks and exercise that they my need.

About: I’ve spent a lifetime caring for animals and children. I’ve owned many dogs, been around horses and farms, worked as a nanny, and cared for friends’ and family’s pets while they traveled. Animals and children naturally seem to trust me—I’ve yet to meet a child or a dog I didn’t adore, or who didn’t warm up to me. As a self-employed hairstylist rebuilding my clientele, I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to devote to pet care. With no children or dogs of my own at home, I’m able to give your pets lots of personal attention, companionship, walks, playtime, and love. Caring for your pets fits naturally into my lifestyle. I have years of hands-on experience with dogs and have attended several dog and puppy training classes. I’m comfortable with crate routines, safe leash handling, walking, brushing, playtime, and keeping dogs secure and under control. I also love giving them plenty of exercise and attention—from playing ball and long doggy walks to fun outings and beach adventures.

“Audrey was amazing. Henry is my world, and she took such good care of him. Reliable and trustworthy, definitely recommend to watch your fur babies.”

“Carlos sat for me several times and I can say that he's been reliable and has taken great care of our pets and our home. He actually stays at the house, which not all sitters do, so it was nice to know that our dogs had the comfort and care of someone at the house while we were away.”

Katty C.

“Faith was wonderful! I had a bit of anxiety leaving my 3 year old golden with anyone for the first time, but after meeting Faith beforehand I was put at ease. She was punctual, asked all the right questions and sent sweet photos and updates while I was away.”

Jennifer A.

“Brittany gave me lots of updates and treated my pups like family. I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing my pups and my house were well cared for.”

About: I've spent years caring for dogs with a wide range of personalities, sizes, and energy levels. I'm comfortable providing structured walks, play, feeding, reinforcing established routines, and giving pets the attention they need to feel safe and relaxed while their owners are away. As an active person, I enjoy working with dogs that love to get outside, exercise, and explore, but I also understand that every pet is different. Whether your companion prefers a long walk, gentle play, or simply quiet company, I'll adapt my care to their individual needs. I'm highly organized and detail-oriented, so I take owner instructions seriously. I'll carefully follow feeding schedules, medication instructions (when provided), training cues, and any special routines to keep your pet's day as normal and stress-free as possible. I believe great pet care is built on communication, reliability, and trust. You can expect prompt responses, regular photo updates, and the peace of mind that your pet and home are being treated with the same care and respect I'd give my own. I offer flexible scheduling and do my best to accommodate each pet's routine. Whether your dog needs an early morning walk, a midday potty break, evening exercise, or overnight companionship, I'll work with you to find a schedule that fits your needs. I keep my calendar up to date and respond to booking requests promptly. If you have a recurring schedule or a last-minute request, don't hesitate to reach out—I'll always let you know honestly if I can help. I'm available for weekends, holidays, and many last-minute bookings whenever my calendar allows. Your pet's safety, comfort, and routine are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet's personality, preferences, triggers, and daily schedule so I can provide care that's as consistent and stress-free as possible. I closely follow your instructions regarding feeding, medications, exercise, training cues, and household routines. During walks, I prioritize secure leash handling, situational awareness, and avoiding unsafe interactions with unfamiliar animals or hazards. When caring for pets in your home, I treat your space with the same respect I would my own. I'll keep your home tidy, secure doors and gates, and can bring in mail, water plants, or handle other agreed-upon tasks while you're away. You'll receive regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for. My goal is for both you and your pet to feel comfortable, confident, and cared for from the moment we meet until you return home.

“Kiah was absolutely wonderful. We were gone for just over a week and we got daily pictures and videos of our dog’s adventures. She was more than happy to continue building training/good behavior as he has been with us for only a couple of months. Although I cleared it beforehand, she went above and beyond watering my garden and even took our dog on adventures and (approved) multi-dog walks, helping socialization and confidence! We will absolutely continue to use her services!”

About: Greetings, I have grown up with 2-3 dogs my whole life, many of which have had health issues. I am comfortable with any type of dog and his/her accommodations. I have also pet sat for many animals, dogs included. I love being outside and would take your loved pets on walks or runs if they were in my care unless the owner asked otherwise. They would have constant access to water, food when owner specifies, and many parks and an outside yard to go to the bathroom. I believe in frequent bathroom breaks, constant attention, play, and naps. I am available after 12 am on Mondays and Wednesdays. On Tuesdays and Thursdays, I am available after 10 am. I have three other people I live with who are comfortable with and will love on the dogs if they are home. I like clear instructions from owners on what they want their dogs daily routine to look like. I also request the owners immediate contact information as well as a veterinarian's (if possible), in case of emergencies.

“Katie is an absolute gem! Warm and communicative and clearly a dog lover. She is the kind of person you can trust right away. We are so happy to have find her and can tell the dogs adore her as well. Highly recommend!”

Jessica T.

“We needed a reliable sitter to stay with our small dog while we were in Paso Robles, and we couldn’t have asked for a better match than Jessica. She has a warm, friendly personality and was incredibly easygoing and accommodating throughout the entire experience. Our Pom, who is usually hesitant around new people, was a bit shy at first but quickly warmed up to her and felt comfortable. It gave us such peace of mind knowing our pup was in great hands. I highly recommend Jessica and only wish we lived closer so we could book her more often!”

Edita K.

“So grateful to have connected with Victoria. Our pup is used to us being around 24/7. Being new to the area we needed to find someone we could trust. She met us to do a meet and greet. Then we decided to have her help for a few hours before an upcoming trip. Our pup had the biggest smile on her face when we got home because of how much love and play she had while we were gone. She will be our go to from now on!”

About: My name is Lacey, and I have been an avid pet lover my whole life. My mom was like Dr. Doolittle, so I’ve had a large variety of strange animals as pets (including an alpaca, opossums, mice, etc.) and loved them all the same! Currently I have an orange cat named Baby, and she has the most personality. I am so so so excited to meet new furry friends through this experience. I graduated from the University of Nebraska Lincoln and am now in California pursuing acceptance into medical school. In the meantime I am trying to earn some extra money, and this opportunity to do that via hanging out with cute animals was just too good to be true. Can’t wait to meet you and your pet :)

About: Lifetime Experience: I’ve been dog sitting for neighbors since I was young and have owned dogs my entire life, making attentive pet care second nature. Specialized Senior Care: Experienced with senior dogs and managing special routines, including successfully administering daily oral medications. Versatile with All Personalities: Whether it’s an energetic high-play pup or a timid dog that needs a gentle, patient touch, I adapt to what makes them feel safe and loved. Full-Service Care: Happy to handle everything from daily walks and coat/teeth brushing to messy cleanups without skipping a beat. No matter the breed, size, or special need, I make sure every dog gets the individual patience, treats, and affection they deserve! I’m currently job searching as I just moved to Paso Robles post graduation, so I have plenty of time to take care of your furry friends and make sure they are taken care of the way you need! Sticking to Routine: I follow your exact instructions for feeding, potty schedules, and walk routes so your dog’s daily flow stays completely normal. Respecting Your Space: I treat your home with total care, keeping things neat, locking up properly, and quickly handling any unexpected pet accidents. Building Trust: For timid or anxious pets, I start with a calm, gentle approach and let them come to me at their own pace with plenty of positive reinforcement and treats.
