About: Dogs are my passion! Your pup will be treated like the prince/princess they are and will be constantly showered with attention and interaction. I try to raise the bar by proving I will provide anything your dog wants or needs (no over spoiling ;) ) from an intense run or scenic walk to a much needed belly rub, they will be in great hands! Running a Dog Walking/Sitting service has given me the tools and experience to assure you’re getting exactly what you’re looking for and the comfort you deserve! I am also extremely flexible so if you have a question or concern, I will happily work something out to better suit your needs! * I will also take any other pets, your cat is welcome to join the fun! * I work at Trader Joe's 4-5 days a week but I am also flexible. I am confident we can find a time that suits your needs and schedule :) In my home I have 2 cats and a fenced yard. When caring for pets in their personal homes, I am respectful of space and privacy all while providing the care you expect
“I just moved to the area and needed someone last minute to help me with my dog - feeding and a couple walks - while I was at Disneyland for the day. It's always hard to leave your dog, especially when you don't know the person, but Angela was wonderful and exceeded my expectations. She was super responsive to my initial outreach and asked great questions. I loved getting the visit reports and photos from her throughout the day. She took extra time to get to know the dog and make him comfortable, and did other little thoughtful things that made me feel like she treated the dog and my home like her own. I can't express my appreciation enough, and will definitely be calling Angela again!”
“sierra did a great job! i was in a bit of a pinch when my usual pet sitter canceled on me a couple days before my trip but sierra responded right away and was super attentive and communicative through out the whole process! she took such good care of my kitties and home. will definitely be booking with her again :)))”

“Reviewed by Pet: Thank you for being my new friend, feeding me, cleaning my doodie box, bushing me with my favorite brush, playing with my toys and taking really of photos of me.

About: I have experience taking care of dogs of all ages and sizes. I grew up with a shnoodle and a golden doodle who was over 100lbs at her biggest. We got both of them when they were puppies, so it's been a while since I've taken care of a puppy, but I'm sure I could pick it up again easily. I also have experience administering medication, both pills and IVs, to dogs and cats. i know how to generally take care of senior animals. I know that they generally take more time and care. I will look to you for more specific instructions. I can't wait to meet your furry baby! Right now, I am unemployed, so I have a very open schedule to take care of animals. If I get a job, I will communicate and change my availability as soon as I know. I will do what the owner expects me to do with the pet. I have a car and can take the dog to a park or the vet if necessary. We have cats and live in an apartment, so I will not take care of animals at home.
About: I grew up taking care of dogs and cats, and pet sitting for neighbors and family friends.

I do not keep any of my own pets currently or offer pet boarding. Many family friends and neighbors have trusted me to visit or stay in their home to care for pets. I am most available for short visits to feed and walk pets.
About: I have years of cat and dog sitting experience throughout my community (i.e. neighbors, friends, and family). Additionally, I have had a menagerie of pets my entire life ranging from dogs to cats to birds to foster iguanas. Pet sitting has been a real joy and treat for me! I am currently finishing up my position as a field biologist, and I have much more time to spend caring for pets! I am mostly available on weekends for October, and my schedule will open up entirely for the month of November. I am very flexible with my pet-sitting services and happy to discuss you and your fur babies' needs. This may include medication administration, close care and observation, a range of outdoor or indoor activity time, and frequent or specific updates if desired. Looking forward to meeting you!

Cherich S.
“Cherich is my skittish cats dream! She has worked with cats of all backgrounds and proved how patient she could be with my feral cat Ruby. She is not one for getting too close let alone some affection, but Ruby now loves to sit on the couch on the seat next to her which melts my heart! The first time I booked with her it was very last minute but Cherich was accommodating and very professional. Ruby and I now look forward to her weekly visits!!!”

“Lindsay is one of the kindest and most caring people I know. She has fostered and cared for many dogs, treating each one like her own.

You will find her to be honest, caring and possessing common sense-- all the great traits one would hope to find in a pet sitter, dog walker, and/ or home sitter.”

Hayley P.
“As a lifelong friend of Hayley, I can attest that she is a responsible and loving person who will take excellent care of your furry children. Her dog, Kelty, and my dog have spent hours on end playing and enjoying each other's company, and it is evident that she truly enjoys spending time with all animals and treats them like family. I can wholeheartedly recommend her services to anyone!”

I will use her again and would not hesitate to recommend her!
Julia was very helpful and took care of everything I could’ve hoped for while I travelled last minute for a funeral. My very shy cats warmed up to her quickly which says to me that she’s patient and kind—my fussy little furballs often take 3-4 occasions with a new person to get as comfortable as they were with her within a few days. I was grateful to know they were in good hands while I dealt with a difficult situation many states away.
Becki’s been our cat sitter twice now - once when our 15 year old cat just had dental surgery and needed extra attention, and most recently when our two cats were at home alone for 2 weeks. Both times, Becki’s been communicative and has gone above and beyond by grabbing mail, watering plants, and sending detailed cat updates. We know our girls are in good hands with her!
