House Sitting Trinidad

About: Having had pets my entire life, I have learned many aspects to animal caregiving and I guarantee to be a clear and communicative caregiver to your pets! I am very physically active, and enjoy walking dogs, playing, and spending time outside in all types of weather! If your pet needs a more mellow approach, I am also happy to provide calm and relaxing check-ins for shy or senior pets. I have had cats my entire life, and currently am taking care of my landlord's cats long term... so I am not afraid of different cat personalities and will gladly discuss your pet's individual needs for each visit. I guarantee to provide safe, loving, and attentive care to your pets and discuss all needs to provide peace of mind while you are away! I work part-time, with a lot of flexibility. Though my schedule varies, I am glad to work odd hours and I promise to discuss any needs or specific things you may need during my visit time. I also guarantee committed and reliable times when scheduling is decided upon. Safety is my main priority when taking care of your pets, to provide you peace of mind and make sure that your pets are well taken care of. I am happy to crate your dog if needed, do house checks for any safety concerns, and send updates regarding their food/water/exercise and wellbeing so you can rest assured they are taken care of!

“Chandi was wonderful. The communication was of upmost importance for me. Chandi was very responsive to my messages and kept me updated on how my fur babies were doing. I am very happy that I found her and I look forward to having her sit with my babies in the future. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

About: Grew up with family dogs, and strategically made friends with cats so I could pretend they were mine. Currently I have a 7 year old goldendoodle who has taught me a TON about training dogs in the 6 years I've had him. Your good boy will enjoy every smell on our walk and get some (owner approved) treats along the way, and I'm happy to continue your work on any behaviors you're encouraging! My schedule is pretty much wide open for north county visits (McKinleyville and up) - feel free to reach out with same day requests! Further afield than that I may need some notice, but am happy to work something out! Just send me a message. I'm a pretty "safety first," cautious dog owner. I'll follow your instructions to the letter, and will err on the side of caution. I like to take the time to get to know your critters, and let them get to know me so that it's always exciting when I show up! For interested dog owners, I can facilitate a meet with my own dog for a double walk or a dog park playmate - after a meet and greet to make sure they get along.

About: I have experience with dogs and cats, young and old, easy and "difficult". I am very adept at walking and caring for reactive dogs who can have a hard time with other dogs and/or humans, and do my best to avoid any situations that can trigger reactive behaviors. I'm also happy to help keep up any training routines, I'm pretty proficient in general dog training, but I know it always comes down to the individual dogs for what works best. I often have people remark about their pets who usually don't warm up to new people immediately taking a liking to me! I'm also totally respectful of animals who do need time to get to know new people and always meet them where they're at, so more than welcome to accommodate those who need more introduction time. I've had dogs in the family my whole life, and have lived with many cats as roommates, and I've loved them all. I've done extensive house sitting everywhere from big cities to rural areas, for periods of time as long as two months, caring for animals as well as the house and surrounding property. My schedule is very flexible so I can make sure I have plenty of time to give my full attention to your animal friends, I live in a sweet quiet neighborhood in Arcata near the bottoms that's great for regular walks, and I have a car and am happy to take pups out on more special adventures too! I always check in about what's best for each dog, and can tailor care around what their usual schedule is with walks and feeding, what kinds of play they like best, and any training routines I can help reinforce during our time together. I make sure to take extra care with reactive dogs and avoid any situations that may trigger them as best as possible.

About: For as long as I can remember, animals have been a part of my life. Dogs, cats, birds, bunnies, sheep, horses, you name it, I’ve taken care of them. I’ve raised and trained puppies, cared for elderly pets and everything in between. Large or small, I love them all I am retired so my time is very flexible. From a short drop-in to check on your pet to a long- term house sitting assignment, my schedule is open. When caring for your pet in your home, you can count on me to respect your privacy and to diligently follow your instructions. Your pets needs are my top priority

“Tyler was awesome sitter. Very professional, listened to our concerns/requests and made sure everything we requested has been followed. Very responsive to all of our questions while we were away. My dog Loki had wonderful time with Tyler. I would highly recommend Tyler to anyone who needs a reliable sitter.”

“Stari was amazing with our dogs. We have one difficult dog and Stari was great with her. She stayed and watched our house, took the dogs out on walks around the neighborhood and to the beach, and most importantly took really good care of our dogs. She sent photos and they were always content and happy! I would highly recommend her to watch your pets! Thanks Stari”

About: I am a long time animal lover and have been working in pet care for over 25 years professionally. I have ample experience with dog walking and overnight pet sitting. I ran my own dog walking business as a sole proprietor for many years, and also have worked as an independent contractor for other dog walking & pet sitting companies. In the past, I've cared for many different animals of varying ages and breeds; from puppies and kittens to seniors. I have plenty of experience administering medication for animals who need it, whether it be ear/eye drops, pills, and insulin injections. I also have experience caring for small and furry (rabbits, hamsters, guinea pigs) as well as scaly (fish, snakes, turtles). I'm responsible, caring, and punctual, and I genuinely care about providing great service to you and your pet. I am looking forward to meeting your furry (or scaly) friend! My schedule is fairly flexible and I will accept bookings Mon-Sun from 8am to 5pm. I prefer to do an free consultation with your dog before you book your first walk. I do appreciate advance bookings, but will do my best to fit you in! Your pet is a member of your family, so it is important to me that your pal feels loved and cared for while you are away. I travel to you and I am not currently available for boarding in my home.

“Kade took great care of my cat and my house while I was traveling. Everything looked great and my cat didn’t seemed phased by my absence. Great communicator as well!”

Care is designed to support consistency while adapting to your needs, fitting naturally into your daily or weekly rhythm. Walks and visits can be scheduled on a regular basis or arranged as needed, depending on what works best for you and your dog. Care is provided with a calm, thoughtful approach, taking time to understand each dog’s routines, preferences, and signals. The goal is for visits to feel familiar, low-stress, and supportive, blending seamlessly into your routine while helping dogs feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for.

About: I’ve been taking care of pets ever since I was a young girl and knew my life would be dedicated to them. I then became a vet tech in 2018 and have loved being able to take care of them medically as well. I have gained so much knowledge of healthcare and husbandry ranging from puppies/kittens to seniors of all kinds of breeds and personalities to give your fur baby the best. I’m very familiar with most health conditions and comfortable with all medications(oral/injection) I am also responsive and prepared when health concerns or even emergencies come up. I have my own vet tech kit to treat minor injuries and illnesses but will always seek the appropriate medical care if necessary.I am also happy to provide basic grooming like bathing brushing and even nail trims ( all if they are comfortable with it) free of charge if requested. Your pet will be in the most excellent hands, I will always do everything in my power to keep them safe happy and healthy and I will love spending time with them. I am very professional reliable and you can rest easy knowing your pets are in my care and I will always keep you updated. I cannot wait to meet you and your pets as they will be treated like my own ( royal treatment for sure 👑) I’m just taking relief shifts as a vet tech currently and have a flexible schedule for pet sitting. When I’m taking care of your pets they are my number one priority. I will always care for your pets as my own and will always do everything I can to make sure they are comfortable happy and safe. I spoil my senior dog Curley and I always do the same for you pups no doubt. I always check in for mental and physical wellness 24/7 and make adjustments as needed.

About: I have over four years of experience working at a doggie daycare, where I've cared for dogs of all sizes, breeds, ages, and personalities. Through this experience, I've developed a strong understanding of dog behavior, body language, and common health concerns. I have experience working with puppies, senior dogs, reactive dogs, and dogs with special medical needs, including administering medications and monitoring for signs of illness or discomfort. Caring for animals is my passion, and I take pride in providing patient, attentive, and individualized care for every pet. Whether it's helping a puppy learn good habits, making sure a senior dog is comfortable, or giving extra attention to a nervous or reactive dog, I always prioritize each animal's safety and well-being. I am currently working on weekends, but I am available throughout the week. I am happy to care for your pet mornings, afternoons, and nights. I believe in providing a safe, enriching environment where dogs can be dogs. I love letting dogs explore on walks, sniff to their heart's content, play, and enjoy new experiences while always prioritizing their safety and comfort. I also understand that every dog is different; some thrive with more freedom, while others need structure, routine, and reinforcement of their training. I take the time to learn each pet's needs and follow the owner's preferences to ensure consistency, trust, and a positive experience for both the pet and their family.

“Bailey watched our border collie/heeler mix Huck for 10 days and we were very happy with our experience with her. She provided updates on their activities, followed our written instructions, and we came home to a healthy and happy pup and a clean house! We definitely recommend Bailey as a sitter.”

Alison C.

“Bailey was great and available on short notice due to a family emergency. Pets loved her and she even offered to grab some carpet cleaner when one of my cats puked. Will use her again for future needs.”

About: Dogs are more than pets, they are part of the family. I have always loved animals, and I will love yours just the same. Life can get busy! It's important to make sure your fur baby feels loved even when their owners are away. I am responsible and active. I would love to take your pup along with me as I run and hike around the beautiful PNW terrain! I want to make sure that I create a personal connection with your dog and with you to ensure that I offer the best care for your dog! I have grown up around dogs, and I understand that each one has their own quirks and personalities. In addition, I love all animals and am eager to look after cats, rabbits, chickens... you name it! Thanks! I look forward to taking care of your pup!
