About: For over 7 years, I’ve provided dedicated care for dogs of all breeds and ages. Whether it’s daily walks, feeding, playtime, or extra cuddles, I treat every pet like family. Pet parents trust me to keep their furry friends safe, happy, and loved while they’re away. This will be a safe space for them. I work full-time Mon-Fri.

During certain months there will be availability during weekdays I provide a safe, welcoming environment with a fenced backyard and one friendly cat, Kurin, for companionship. If needed, I can easily crate your pup. I always supervise playtime, ensure pets have fresh water, and give them plenty of love and attention so they feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. I would like them to roam freely around the house unless specified otherwise. The goal is to try and recreate their normal routine, so they feel at home.

I’m comfortable with feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning, playtime, and giving each cat the patience and attention they need.

I was raised to respect people houses and living space. I have never and will never drink or smoke.

About: I have been taking care of animals ever since I can remember. I have always wanted to be a vet and will do the best I can for any furbaby that comes my way. Always making sure I do the best for my pets so they can live their life to the fullest. I would do anything for my pets to make sure they are happy and healthy. I know a lot about all animals I love learning new things about them if I have not already. I personally trained my families pets and the all love they way the are and how they behave. I'm still learning to become a vet so one day I can save all the furbabies I possibly can as a vet.

I have a fenced in backyard and two friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company. Also I will send you updates as needed or wanted.

“Faith is the best pet sitter! I needed someone to provide drop-in care for my four cats for three weeks while I was out of state. Whoever I hired had to be completely trustworthy and reliable. Faith not only scores FIVE STARS for trustworthiness and reliability, she genuinely loves animals and knows how to care for them! She is very conscientious and hard working and approaches challenges with intelligence and a good sense of humor. I highly recommend her and will not hesitate to hire her when I need a pet sitter again. Faith did an excellent job!”

“Shanna has kept my girl Kai for daycare on a couple of occasions. Shanna has been very responsive to Kai's needs, and has taken very good care of my girl. Shanna has communicated with me while Kai is with her and has provided me with updates with pictures. I highly recommend Shanna for your pet care needs.”

“This was first time leaving my dog. I was a little nervous since we were in town for my husbands work so I was not familiar with the area, people or just leaving him. Nalani did a great job making it comfortable for me. I took my dog to her two days and it was such a great experience. He did well and Nalani gave him lots of attention. Thank you so much for taking care of my fur baby while we were in town. I highly recommend her.”

“Karla is amazing! She provided overnights before and this time I used her doggy day care service. My dog was so excited to see her and her dogs again, he ran up to her house. Would definitely recommend!”


“Rocky can be a picky dog, with humans and dogs. When I dropped him off for daycare I was so nervous that he wouldn’t play nice and would wreak havoc. However, I was pleasantly surprised when I picked him up and they said he did great. By the time we got home, he was snoring away. Jill and Liz did great with Rocky and he will definitely be back! Big plus for sending me a photo after about 30 minutes assuring me he was fine :)”

About: I am a Fear Free certified veterinary technician of 13 years who grew up in the show dog world (AKC) before getting into rescue as an adult. Throughout my long-lived animal career I have participated in puppy/kitten/basic obedience training, behavioral rehabilitation, dog sport training, senior care, care for animals with extreme medical needs, and owned/operated a group play doggie daycare. My jobs, hobbies, and passions are all centered around animals and I can't wait to bring that passion to you! I am home full-time, and available for puppies and animals with heavy needs. I have a fairly set schedule for all of the pets in my care, and that level of routine provides comfort to even the most nervous of pups. I am the only Fear Free pet carer in Bakersfield! I provide comforting classical music as well as calming pheromones in the sleeping spaces to make their stay as stress-free as possible. I have a fenced yard and never leave dogs together unsupervised. I do not provide an environment suitable for animals with a history of dog aggression. Small dogs I can be more flexible with, as their attitude usually comes from a place of fear and that is something I can work with for the little guys.
“Haley was a very thoughtful, flexible sitter for Jethro. He can be a handful at times, but she was great at understanding his (and our) needs while we were out of town. She is trustworthy and goes the extra mile to make sure your dog is comfortable, and updated throughout the day without needing to be asked. I’d recommend her if you are looking for someone to trust with the security of your home, and safety and happiness of your animals.”


About: I have always grown up with having a pet in the home. Currently, I have two: a young 1 year old shitzu and a senior 11 year old maltipoo (you can imagine how they get along). I have basic skills on training some tricks. My true enjoyment is playing with pets. They heal something in me, and I think they know that. I am currently transitioning from being a full-time graduate student to full-time employee. It has been interesting to say the least. That said, my schedule is very flexible! I am on the onboarding process to a part time. However, I am happy to work with any owner to ensure a happy puppy. Unfortunately, I do not have a fenced front yard, so I will take out any pets with a leash for safety. I do have two small house dogs who are very friendly and happy to welcome any new friends.
“She was an absolute lifesaver! She took my booking with only 30 minutes notice. No one else even responded until hours later. She sent updates and photos without me having to mention it or ask. Talia looked so happy and well taken care of. 11/10 highly recommend! She completely put my mind at ease while I was having such a stressful day!”

“Carolina took such good care of our pup! She sent me photos and updates letting me know how my dog was doing, which put me at ease. I would definitely use her again and highly recommend!”

“Veronica is really kind and gentle to my dog that is extremely anxious and whiny. The rover card was updated and photos were uploaded as well. And it was a bit chilly and she gave my dog a nice sweater to go home with.”

“Akie was professional, friendly, and clearly loves animals. My dog was well taken care of, and I appreciated the regular updates. I’ll definitely book with Akie again in the future!.”

“Brandan is great with our one year old fur baby! Simba has separation anxiety, but Brandan stays patient with him and attends to his needs to make him comfortable. We appreciate that he is flexible with our schedule and treats Simba like family. Simba is always excited to go to daycare as he starts to show excitement when we approach Brandan’s home and runs up to his door! If you are looking for someone who is compassionate and trustworthy; Brandan is the one!”

About: I have training certificates for Pillars and Harmony from Victoria Stilwell Academy for Dog Training and Behavior. I walk, behavioral train, & do dog sitting. I am working on getting my home approved, but for now only at client’s home. I will be making schedule available to first come first serve. Same day cancellation will possibly give others a chance to book same day if still needed. I am happy to care for your pet as instructed and requested to. My phone line will be open for communication throughout the time of care. With client permission and/ or request, I could also take and send pictures to you throughout the time of care.

About: Having my owns pets (a cat and three dogs) contributes greatly to my experience as a pet care taker. Although I have a lot of experience taking care of family and friends’ pets. I will be going to school part time so a lot of my time will be dedicated towards loving and taking care of your pets! With my own pets I am patient and attentive but I also know how to have fun. I always make sure that playtime is safe and healthy. I can adapt quickly to any situation, whether serious or playful. I understand that every pet will have a unique personality so I know how to adjust.
About: I have taken care of pets for my friends and family many times over the years. I love to cuddle and play with them. I also love taking them on walks. I am looking for a job right now so I have a lot of time on my hands to take care of your pets. I’m available most days. I understand that all pets are different, so I will follow all directions specific to your pets needs. I can stay at your house with the pets or drop by for visits when needed.
About: As someone who has owned pets, I have years of experience in caring for cats, dogs, lizards, bunnies and more! When I could not locate a proper groomer for my shihtzu, I learned how cut my dog’s hair and clip his nails. When I owned cats, I did extensive research on diet to ensure they had all the nutrition they needed. I’m still fairly new to owning bunnies but I have learned a lot from vet visits and testimonials from other bun parents! I work two other jobs but I make my own schedule so I can fit late afternoon and nightly check ins, baths, walks, overnight sitting, and errands into my day if that’s what you’d like. I would love to spend as much time as I can making sure that your pet is well loved and taken care of. I don’t want to break an animal’s routine so if you have your pet on a schedule/routine, diet, or regiment of some sort, I plan to stick to that.

I’m patient, gentle, dependable, and comfortable working with different personalities and energy levels. I understand that every pet has their own routine and needs, and I’m happy to give them plenty of attention, exercise, and love while their family is away. I have an open and flexible schedule, so I’m able to work around your pet’s routine and needs. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting.

About: I focus on giving each dog consistent attention, patience, and a calm environment so they feel safe and comfortable. I follow care instructions exactly, keep routines consistent, and communicate clearly with daily updates and photos. I’m especially attentive to each dog’s behavior and energy level, making sure they get the right balance of play, rest, and care while you’re away. Pet care fits into my routine in a very consistent and flexible way. I naturally build my schedule around reliability and attention to detail, so I’m used to checking in on responsibilities throughout the day rather than letting things pile up. On a daily basis, I can dedicate time in the mornings, afternoons, and evenings for walks, feeding, playtime, and any needed check-ins on weekends. Evenings during the week. I’m good at adjusting my schedule to match the pet’s routine, whether that means early morning walks or evening drop-ins. On a weekly level, I plan ahead so I can make sure I’m available for longer care periods like overnights or multiple visits per day. I’m also comfortable being consistent with routines like medication schedules, exercise, and keeping the pet’s environment clean and safe. Overall, I treat pet care like a real responsibility, not something I “fit in” when convenient I structure my time around it to make sure the pet stays comfortable and cared for. In a client’s home, I focus on keeping the pet’s routine as normal and stress free as possible. I follow the instructions exactly as provided feeding schedule, portion sizes, walk times, medication (if any), and any specific behavior or care notes about the pet. For daily care, I make sure the pet gets attention, exercise, and interaction, not just basic needs. That can include walks, playtime, accidents if needed, refreshing water, and making sure the home is kept tidy and secure while I’m there. I’m also careful about safety double checking doors, gates, leashes, and making sure pets don’t get into anything they shouldn’t. I pay attention to how the pet is acting so I can notice any changes in mood, appetite, or behavior and communicate that right away if something seems off. I don’t just “stop by and do tasks” I treat it like I’m temporarily responsible for the pet’s wellbeing and comfort, and I make sure they feel calm and cared for while their owner is away.

About: Hello, my name is Diana, im an art and cinema student at City College of San Francisco.

I look forward to meeting you and your pet. Hello, my name is Diana, im an art and cinema student at City College of San Francisco. Ive had experience walking and sitting dogs for over 3 years now and I love being able to meet different dogs of all shapes and sizes along with their owners.

About: I’ve volunteered at the shelters for several years. I participated in their cruising canines program that had me take a shelter pup out weekly for a few hours to burn energy. This includes going for walks, swimming, going to get a puppacino or just cruising in the car and wind surfing! I’ve taken all dog sizes and am physically fit enough to take on larger dogs. I’ve had animals of my own since I was 7 years old. This included ducks, pigs, dogs, cats and geese! I currently have 3 dogs of my own. I love any chance to meet new animals! I live a very active lifestyle and fitness is a huge part of my daily routine. I have 4 dogs of my own and understand how a pet is more than just a pet, they are a family member! I work from home as a seamstress, which allows for my schedule to be very flexible. Last minute bookings to planned bookings work for me! All of my dogs are inside dogs. They are treated with the same care as humans, if not more. Comfort is top priority for my animals and I understand every pet will require something different. No 2 animals are the same and volunteering at the shelter has helped me learn that quickly! I feel I am very good at a reading the situation and would never do anything to make an animal feel uncomfortable.

About: My passion for animals started when I was young. I begged for a puppy at the age ten until I got one. My first pet was a teacup chihuahua, named Teacup, and I absolutely adored her. Twelve years later, I owned a Husky mix, named Smokey. Which provided me with experience handling small and large dogs. I also have experience working at Saint Louis Zoo is Missouri. It started off as an internship, then the next year I worked as a part-time zoo keeper for a year. I also have experience volunteering at SPCA through highschool. For colloge I attended Harris-Stowe State University, and majored in Biology. I completed 100 credits. If your interested in my services please feel free to contact me; I am looking forward to meeting you and your fur baby My availability is currently open. I do not have any other duties throughout the day, which means I can give your pet my full attention! Your pet will never be left alone and unsupervised. I treat the pets as if I have a friend over. They will never get bored with me because I am super playful. If they’re not the playful type, then I love cuddles as well. I also love walking and going for a jog, so we would spend a lot of time outside, if the pet wants. I understand all pets have different behaviors and personalities, so I make sure I know about the dog before the booking.

“Haley was amazing with Sirius. I had a work emergency out of state and needed someone to walk Sirius during the day while the husband is at work. Luckily, Haley agreed to walk Sirius. She gave him care and attention when I was far away and sent photos during the walks. Would highly recommend Haley and definitely will book her again. Thanks so much for taking care of our pup.”

She was quick to respond and let me know in full detail what my dog was up to and informed me of any problems that she noticed. The only small issue I had was that I wished she updated me earlier about how my dog was doing but besides that she was great.”

About: For over 7 years, I’ve provided dedicated care for dogs of all breeds and ages. Whether it’s daily walks, feeding, playtime, or extra cuddles, I treat every pet like family. Pet parents trust me to keep their furry friends safe, happy, and loved while they’re away. This will be a safe space for them. I work full-time Mon-Fri. However, Fri-Sun I have more than enough time to provide proper care and lots of attention to your furry friends. They're in good hands. During certain months there will be availability during weekdays I provide a safe, welcoming environment with a fenced backyard and one friendly cat, Kurin, for companionship. If needed, I can easily crate your pup. I always supervise playtime, ensure pets have fresh water, and give them plenty of love and attention so they feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. I would like them to roam freely around the house unless specified otherwise. The goal is to try and recreate their normal routine, so they feel at home.
