About: I live in the Sacramento Delta in a quiet neighborhood. Great neighborhood for walks and a nice fenced corner lot yard for your pup to run around in. I live with my elderly father who enjoys meeting new doggy friends. 24 hr supervision since I work remotely! I’m an early riser and enjoy morning walks. Your doggy will recieve a good amount of outdoor time and have an active and stimulating day. I’m comfortable with your dog sleeping in bed with me but respect if you prefer them to sleep in a crate. I work remotely so I have no issue staying at your house as well!

Megan did great with my cats. They’re usually a little shy with new people but looks like they were comfortable with her right away. If the cats are happy and content then I’m happy, will book Megan again!

About: I have had a lifelong love for animals and hands-on experience caring for them. I grew up with dogs and have been around them my entire life, so I’m very comfortable with different breeds, personalities, and needs. I also had a cat for many years, giving me experience with feline care as well. In addition to caring for my own pets, I dog sit for friends and have helped take care of my grandparents’ dogs. Through these experiences, I’ve become reliable with walks, playtime, meal routines, and making sure pets feel safe and loved while their owners are away. I enjoy caring for animals and treat every pet as if it were my own. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I’m currently job searching so I have a flexible schedule and plenty of availability to dedicate to each pet’s needs. This allows me to give pets consistent attention with walks, playtime, feedings, and company throughout the day. I am able to adapt to every pets’ different routines so it’s close to the schedule they’re used to. I live in a very safe neighborhood and close to a dog park as well. I would walk my dogs and take them to play at the parks often. I understand how crucial safety is when it comes to pets, especially in the care of someone other than their owners. I would take the upmost responsibility to make sure your fur babies are safe and loved.

Ramona updated me concerning the wellbeing of Om who has some typical elderly kitty health issues. Romona sent photos of Shanti who is the shy one so Romona was able to make Shanti feel safe enough to pose for a photo!

About: I've been housesitting since 2010, mainly cats and dogs. Multi-pet houses don't bother me and I'm good at keeping with your fur kids' schedules. I have and RVT license that is current and have been an RVT for over 10 years. I took a break from housesitting to work at animal hospitals, including a 24-hour critical care hospital in the ICU. Medications and medical treatments are no problem for me. I have an open schedule and am comfortable with either staying at your home for your pet's comfort, or I can visit everyday to make sure they are cared for. I adjust to their wants and needs and stick to their schedule. I'm low stress and understand that sometimes pets just need to warm up to you. As for my personal pets, there's four cats with totally different personalities that run the house (I just live there).

Dawn did a very good job caring for my many cats in addressing their medical needs (administering insulin and eye drops). She was attentive to all their weird eating preferences (different food/ portions for 3 of my 4 cats), and I appreciated that. I came home to things how I hoped they be and really appreciated her careful care. I look forward to booking with Dawn again.

About: I’ve been around animals in and outside of my home since i was born. I’ve always had at least one dog since i was seven and currently have three. I am certified with Wag! as well and have been working with horses for 5-6 years so i’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and ages and other pets you might have in your home. I stay pretty active so long walks or runs aren’t a problem either. I’m available for drop ins, walks, and sitting, overnight, early morning or anytime you need including most holidays and weekends if it’s scheduled at least one day in advance. I’d love to provide whatever your dog needs including special requests and of course love. Long term and recurring setups are preferred but short or one time things are always good too, let me know and i’ll work with you to make sure your dogs are well cared for. My schedule is very flexible, I can usually accept same day requests, long term sitting requests (longer than 3 days) will be easier to commit to with 1-2 days advanced notice I will work with whatever your dog's needs are! I have training experience with ecollar, prong collar, gentle leader, vocal cue and signal commands, and I can maintain your pups training whether they are months or years old! I can provide any level of exercise, special care, grooming, etc. that your dog is used to.

About: I’ve grown up with animals my whole life, caring for both cats and dogs of all breeds and personalities. Some of my favorite memories are simply spending time with them. playing, going on walks, or just relaxing together. Being around animals has taught me how to be patient, attentive, and in tune with their unique needs and behaviors. I’m very comfortable with daily routines like feeding, potty breaks, walks, and giving lots of love and reassurance. Caring for pets has always come naturally to me, and I truly treat every animal as if they were my own. i’m currently in school , but outside of it on week days i’m free to spend time with your fur babies! and im available any time on weekends. since i currently own 2 cats, tending to them is a daily routine for me. ensuring they are fed, watered, given time to play or even rest, and ensuring they always have a cleaned environment!

About: When I was younger (around 10) I would pet-sit for several neighbors where I lived. I was very attentive and ended up having regular customers but unfortunately my family moved. Afterwards, I participated in animal rescue. This gave me a lot of experience and knowledge (how to adjust according to different personality types, giving medication and how to handle animals who have experienced abuse in a way that will help them feel more comfortable) Growing up my family had several dogs and cats, I currently have a dog of my own. I love to spoil animals and give them lots of affection and time! I am willing to accommodate almost any special-need😊 I work remotely with an extremely flexible schedule, meaning I will almost always be able to accommodate you and your fur baby. Send me a message so that we can discuss a time that works for you! Whether it’s going for a walk, playing fetch or just simply cuddle time I will make sure your pet is always safe, well taken care of and is content at the end of our time together🐶

Terrell is a very warm and sweet young lady who I instantly knew would take care of my Lily and Kirby as if they were her own. Lily, who is a Chihuahua mix, has a little social anxiety and does not approach people easily. You usually have to be around her a lot before you can even pick her up. Lily took to Terrell quickly, which I had not seen her do with anyone before, so I knew we were in good hands. It is obvious how much Terrell loves dogs. By the end of our first meeting to talk about feeding/potty schedule/house key, etc., I was so at ease and happy to know I'd met a reliable person to help me with in-home dog sitting. I received videos and pictures of Kirby and Lily during Terrell's visits and an update on how they were doing. It made my time away from home peaceful so I could enjoy myself. I wholeheartedly recommend Terrell!
