“Katherine is amazing! My previous dog sitter moved to a different area so I reached out to Katherine. We had a meet and great session and everything went well. During the stay, Katherine updated me everyday with a lot of pictures. When I picked up Holly, Katherine gifted us a bag of snacks, a chewing toy, and even a framed photo for Holly! Thanks so much Katherine! We will definitely be back! Choose Katherine and you won’t be disappointed!”

“Vanja was amazing and my Bentley was so comfortable that she ate her kibble. Bentley never eats with the sitter until she cannot take it any longer, which is about three days. On a three day trip, she ate after the first day which is unheard of. Vanja created a wonderful space for her to feel comfortable and enjoy. Vanja is kind, patient and a true professional, we would love to use her again.”

Melissa is super sweet and dogs know that. My puppy Wednesday loves playing with her cute dogs she has. I love all the updates I get and love how patient Melissa is.

About: Caring for animals is my calling in life! I earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Zoology from Humboldt State University. As a dedicated veterinary technician and docent for the Big Bear Zoo, I have the privilege of providing exceptional care to a wide range of animals and pets. My commitment to the wellbeing of all animals goes beyond just a job; it's a lifelong passion! I'm currently working full time at an emergency animal hospital off the mountain. However, I work double shifts to allow myself some days off during the week and look forward to making some new furry friends! Caring for pets in a client's home is a responsibility I take very seriously, ensuring their comfort, safety, and happiness while their owners are away. My approach to in-home pet care includes: Meet and Greet: I begin by meeting with the client and their pet(s) to establish a rapport and understand their specific needs and routines. Feeding and Hydration: I adhere to the provided feeding schedule, ensuring that pets receive the right amount of food and fresh water. Special dietary requirements are noted and followed diligently. Exercise and Play: Regular exercise and playtime are essential for a pet's physical and mental well-being. I engage in activities tailored to the pet's age and energy level, whether it's a spirited game of fetch or a leisurely walk. Medication and Health Monitoring: If the pet requires medication or has specific health needs, I administer treatments as prescribed by the veterinarian. I also monitor their overall health and report any concerns to the owner promptly. Grooming and Cleanliness: Maintaining the pet's cleanliness is a priority. I provide necessary grooming, including brushing, bathing, and litter box cleaning, to ensure they are comfortable and hygienic. Affection and Companionship: Pets often thrive on companionship and affection. I spend quality time with them, offering cuddles, petting, and positive reinforcement to alleviate any separation anxiety. Security and Home Care: I maintain the security of the client's home by ensuring all doors and windows are locked, and I handle any mail or packages. This gives clients peace of mind while they're away. Daily Updates: Regular communication with the client is crucial. I provide daily updates through texts, photos, or videos to keep them informed about their pet's well-being and activities. Emergency Preparedness: I am trained, experienced and prepared for unexpected situations, including medical emergencies. I have contact information for the client's preferred veterinarian and am beyond qualified for basic pet first aid. Respect for Property: I treat the client's home with the utmost respect, leaving it as clean and tidy as I found it. Overall, my goal is to create a stress-free and nurturing environment for pets in the client's home, allowing them to thrive in their familiar surroundings while their owners are away.

“My dad’s health took a turn for the worse suddenly and I had to quickly make plans to fly to Florida to see him. My other pet sitter wasn’t available as it was last minute and she was out of the country. Ericka was available and lived close by so I hired her. She was wonderful!!! She offered to stop by early, and was even willing & able to take me to and then pick me up from the airport. She sent me pictures of my babies and kept in contact with me the entire time. Most importantly, the cats loved her! Thank you so much Erika!!!”
“Nicole went above and beyond making sure that Dax and Zima were comfortable with her and her toddler. I’m so glad I found her and I will definitely be using her again. She is reliable, on time, and communicative.”
“Roger and Amy were very professional and accommodating to my pup’s needs. They were on time and made sure she got everything she needed for her meal and walks. I will definitely request them again in the future knowing I can trust them with my baby. 🤍 Thank you both so much!”
“Ivy J. Is AMAZING!!! She took incredible care of my little guy! I was blown away by the twice a day detailed updates and wonderful photos. It gave me such peace of mind to know my kitty was in such attentive and caring hands. I really hope she is available for my next trip and I think Henry the cat would agree!!!”
“Chelsea was absolutely great! I was a bit nervous at first but once I met with her things changed. She updated me daily with pictures & videos. Onyx was so happy she didn’t even wanna come back home. Would recommend!!, professional, kind, knowledgeable & her response time was great. Thanks again!”
“Good pricing and friendly walker. Communication could have been better since it’s not possible to do report card due to the lack of self service in my area. I will be more communicative with walkers in the future that I need pee and poop reports.”
“I cannot begin to express my gratitude to Sahula (Rebecca) for the outstanding job she did for watching my kitties. She kept me posted with messages, pictures & videos throughout the day. I didn’t worry about them once while we were away. She even stayed later than originally scheduled due to our flight being delayed. When we returned, we found the house more organized and cleaner than when we left! I am praying she’s still available next year because after this experience, I don’t want anyone else watching them! Thank you Rebecca! I honestly can’t thank you enough!”
About: I’m a dog mom of two chihuahuas, although I love cats as well! I’ve had my first fur baby since I was 11, the other for a little over a year ago. I love taking them on adventures, pampering them, & of course giving them all the love! I can assure you, your fur babies are safe with me. I work weekends to make ends meet for school! I’m currently attending Paul Mitchell The School in Temecula 3 days a week (wed-friday). I am available for pet sitting after school/work as well as my days off (monday & tuesday). I am very attentive & will make sure any needs will be met for your fur baby! I’m very good at following instructions. I look forward to pet sitting for you:)
About: I have two cats, one female orange tabby, about three years old. And I have a male tuxedo cat, who is also three years old. They are both so much fun, I love to play with them, and they love to cuddle. My sister also has a cat that I watch and care for often.
About: In my experience cats have always been friendly to me, ive never had bad experiences, I play with friends and families cats all the time I also babysit my neighbors cat all the time, I also used to own a couple of cats and used to have an occurring stray family that loved my company.
About: An animal and nature lover at heart, I am eager to spend time with dogs, cats, birds, reptiles, or any other pets you may have. I have experience with obedience training, grooming, as well as administering medications and meeting special dietary needs. Personally, I have a wonderful, smart and energetic Border Collie/Aussie mix who loves making new friends. We both enjoy playing fetch and tug, learning new tricks and practicing our commands to earn treats. Please let me know how I can help to keep your non-human family member safe, loved, and entertained! I am self-employed and generally have a very flexible schedule. I do often spend stretches of time out of town (mainly LA and Bay Area), so I appreciate scheduling gigs a bit in advance so I can plan accordingly. No one knows your pet better than you, so I will always defer to your lead as to what your pet needs and prefers. That being said, depending on what level of care you desire for your pet, I am happy and comfortable to take dogs for walks or to dog parks, play fetch or hide and seek, practice commands, and give all the belly rubs that they can stand. If you prefer they sleep in a crate, we can definitely manage that; or if they are like my pup and want to use me as a body pillow at night, I would be more that happy to oblige! Just let me know what you are comfortable with! If needed, I am also open to hosting pets at my home (with fenced in yard).
About: I have been taking care of my own dog/cat for over 10 years now. I am nurturing, patient, kind & ready & willing to work hard & prove my care to your pet/s at any time! I am currently only in school part time online. I have free time everyday during the week as long as I get a heads up! I have a fenced in yard, grass, play areas. I can accommodate your pet with the same safety measures that I use for my pets as well.
“Elma is the BESTEST ever!!! Gage Kitty is always so happy and mellow when I get from work travel -- honestly, if you have a furry friend that needs some care, book immediately. Highly recommended!!!!! thank you Elma!!”
“Taylor did an amazing job watching Blue! She sent consistent updates and pictures, video and we felt at ease while being out of town and leaving Blue in her hands. She went above and beyond, playing fetch with Blue and changing his food when ants got to the bowl. Book Taylor, she was exceptional!”
About: Your pup will always be in my company, since I’m always at home. Lots of outside time and walks through my neighborhood’s local forest trail. Your dog(s) will have their own space in my kitchen, separate from my dog’s personal space. I am a responsible homeschooling mother of an easy-going, 6 year old daughter ( she loves animals). I am a ‘Stay at Home’ Mom, currently homeschooling my 6 year old daughter through a fantastic charter school. I make my own schedule and can easily accommodate your pet’s schedule into my own. My daughter is very well-behaved, with an easy going disposition, which makes animals love her. My husband also loves all animals, but will not be care-taking for your animals, as he is works full time. I will be the full-time caretaker of your beloved fur-friends. I have 2 portions to my property . One side is fenced on a hillside with a small astro-turfed area for potty breaks. The other side is open with a small water fall and full Astro turf. This gives dogs lots of time outside. I will also keep your dog in the kitchen, where I spend the majority of my time cooking and teaching my daughter kindergarten + computer work at the kitchen table. Your pup will also enjoy the walks around the neighborhood, which includes a lot of trees and nature.

“Alexis was an absolutely amazing caretaker I would 100% book with her again and probably will do so in the near future. The amount of care, dedication and attention left me feeling so relieved that my two pups were in great hands even if one of my pups was a bit skittish and had boundaries with strangers it was clear he was able to relax in her home. She took plenty of pictures and her notes were so detailed I felt completely sure that they were having a great time. They had plenty of long walk’s, enrichment activities and made sure they were fed well and full. Its clear she has a great skill set that allows her to understand dog behavior exceptionally that makes her perfect for taking care of your pups, I was able to learn even more about my pups during their stay with Alexis. Cant recommend enough!”

Your dog(s) will have their own space in my kitchen, separate from my dog’s personal space. I am a responsible homeschooling mother of an easy-going, 6 year old daughter ( she loves animals). I am a ‘Stay at Home’ Mom, currently homeschooling my 6 year old daughter through a fantastic charter school. I make my own schedule and can easily accommodate your pet’s schedule into my own. My daughter is very well-behaved, with an easy going disposition, which makes animals love her. My husband also loves all animals, but will not be care-taking for your animals, as he is works full time. I will be the full-time caretaker of your beloved fur-friends. I have 2 portions to my property . One side is fenced on a hillside with a small astro-turfed area for potty breaks. The other side is open with a small water fall and full Astro turf. This gives dogs lots of time outside. I will also keep your dog in the kitchen, where I spend the majority of my time cooking and teaching my daughter kindergarten + computer work at the kitchen table. Your pup will also enjoy the walks around the neighborhood, which includes a lot of trees and nature.

About: I've loved animals ever since I was a little kid. I grew up with dogs and have 3 senior rescues at home who still act like puppies. In 2020 I began my journey with cats when I adopted my rescue cat Pams. She is now 6 years old and still thriving alongside my dogs and her new kitten brother. I am comfortable taking care of animals in any age group, and can administer medication, bottle feed, or whatever else your fur baby needs. I try my best to help animals in any way I can, and was able to TNRV all the strays in my neighborhood this year! I look forward to meeting you!!

About: Hello my furry friend lovers!! I have cared for many different kinds of animals in my life, some of which include dogs,cats,birds,mice,rabbits,guinea pigs,fish,snakes,goats,chickens and now pot belly pigs. We love making homemade treats in our house so I am currently taking some pet nutrition classes to safely make special dietary treats. I am comfortable with all ages and sizes. I would be more than happy to meet you before any final decisions are made so that we can discuss everything there is to know about your pet. I have experience with different illnesses and medications from working with a rescue where I adopted my own angel with a neurological disorder. We absolutely adore pets and I can promise you that you and your baby will be treated like family. I am a stay at home wife that is taking pet nutrition and business classes so I could someday open my own pet boutique where everything is homemade. I promise no potty breaks will be missed and your baby gets all the love and cuddles they can handle. 😊 We have dogs, cats and pot belly pigs for your pet to play with in our fenced yard but we also have big crates for separation if needed. Your baby will be allowed on our furniture to sleep and get cuddles unless you say otherwise lol we do love our snuggles.

About: My experience with pets includes all types of critters ranging from 2 legged feathered ones, 4 legged scaly ones, to 4 legged furry ones. I'm the proud mommy of 3 very catty cat, and 2 sweet bunnies. My pets are part of my family, and that is exactly how I will treat yours as well. Having taught preschool and elementary students, I'm quite efficient at managing sometimes unpredictable schedules and different personalities. I'm very playful, yet organized, and love working with all kinds of animals. I'm patient, and enjoy watching their personalities unfold as they get to know me better. I Have worked with senior and ailing animals, so I am more than capable to handle any emergency should one occur. I can administer medications as well. I generally require a meet and greet to assure we are all a match. To me, my clients are part of my extended family, and I prefer long-term clients over constantly rotating ones. Leaving pets behind is always stressful, and having a long-term relationship with a sitter makes the separation a lot easier for both the pet and the owner. As a freelance care provider and photographer, the ability to create a flexible schedule allows me to give my utmost attention and energy to your pets when they are in my care. I always stay at the clients house for overnight bookings, so your pets will have plenty of company. I couldn’t ask for a more rewarding way to spend my time than hanging out with furry friends. Safety and comfort are always priority. During my time as a teacher, I learned that clear communication is key to any successful relationship. I require a free meet and greet before accepting any request. The meet and greet is a great time for you, your pet, and me to get to know each other and discuss any routines and special considerations. I also request that you provide a written list of all important information including feeding and walking schedules, and a list of emergency contacts and veterinary information. My grandmother taught me, “it’s better to be safe than sorry”, and I am grateful to take this lesson with me into my profession.
About: I love all kinds of dogs, little wild ones, big slow ones, big sporty ones. They just crack me up. I will treat your pet with the utmost love and care at all times and be communicative with you about any changes in behavior, possible issues. I've had dogs my whole life and have been doing urban pet care for almost 10 years. I clarify, cause farm dogs are a totally different animal and I wouldn't ever even try to leash one. Ha!! I look forward to hearing from you. -Kristy Most of my experience has been with my own pets. I've had cats or dogs (usually both) my entire life. Growing up on a farm they get into all kinds of trouble and frequently need special attention. I also frequently pet sit for friends, neighbors and former employers. I'm very responsible and will care for your pet as you request. No treats unless you say so and no sofa time unless that's ok with you. Why I love dog sitting I've loved dogs since I was a kid. I've always had animals in my life. Dogs, cats, chickens, a calf I bottle fed, horses... need I go on. Most of my dogs have been in the 60lb range. So I'm used to holding my ground and handling them when they get excited. Since I've been in LA, I have been a surrogate parent to my friend's dogs, but have had my cats Doodie (now with my ex) and Harris (my little southern girl). I also have a special gift for catching "runaway" pets when their owners can't. My experience administering medication Yes. I'm a master of the blow in the face to make them swallow their pills trick. I have also given shots before to a diabetic weenie dog.
About: Growing up in South Africa, going on safari was a significant part of my culture, and my love for animals has been ingrained in me from a young age. After the loss of my beloved 20-year-old cat, I found joy in walking and playing with a neighbor's Husky, helping to fill that void. Currently, I don't have any pets of my own, so your furry friend will be my top priority and cherished companion until you return. I moved to the mountains five years ago and work primarily from home, allowing me to provide plenty of attention and care. I am very hands-on, with a wealth of love to give, and I have a natural knack for connecting with animals. My cat used to snuggle with me every night, and I can't wait to welcome more little fur-balls into my life to cuddle. My standard nightly rate includes up to 2 pets. In addition to my passion for animals, I have completed a cat and dog CPR certification course through the Red Cross, ensuring that I am prepared for unexpected situations that may arise. I also hold my own liability insurance underwritten by Lloyds of London, separate from Rover's insurance, giving you peace of mind while your pet is in my care. Furthermore, I have successfully passed an enhanced background check by a third-party provider. Animals are my passion, and I feel incredibly grateful to live in the mountains, surrounded by all the beautiful wildlife. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member/s! Pets need love, security and re-assurance when their human parents are on vacation. That is why I prefer to house sit. I can also just drop in for feedings and walks if you are more comfortable with that. I will treat your fur babies with love and respect and give them lots of play and cuddle time! Your wish is my command and I will follow any special instructions or routines you may have.
“Vanya did an absolutely wonderful job taking our two Chihuahua mixes out for daily walks while we were out of town. We happened to be home when she got back from the final walk. Our two pups gave her lots of snuggles and kisses before she left. What more could you want from a dog walker!”

“Katherine is amazing! My previous dog sitter moved to a different area so I reached out to Katherine. We had a meet and great session and everything went well. During the stay, Katherine updated me everyday with a lot of pictures. When I picked up Holly, Katherine gifted us a bag of snacks, a chewing toy, and even a framed photo for Holly! Thanks so much Katherine! We will definitely be back! Choose Katherine and you won’t be disappointed!”
“Yoshi is truly a dog whisperer. Moxy boarded with Yoshi and her dogs for 4 days. We (and Moxy) knew the minute we met Yoshi and her dogs that the care would be warm and loving. Thanks Yoshi!”
“Chelsea was absolutely great! I was a bit nervous at first but once I met with her things changed. She updated me daily with pictures & videos. Onyx was so happy she didn’t even wanna come back home. Would recommend!!, professional, kind, knowledgeable & her response time was great. Thanks again!”
“Sahula, was great.She made me feel very confident when I was leaving my dog Kylie with her. This was the first time I used this service and I was glad I found her, thank you.”
“Kara is awesome. She kept us informed about Niko during his stay. Niko had fun and enjoyed himself. Thank you Kara and family for taking good care of our Niko. We will definitely be bringing him back. Highly recommended ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Erika was a beyond great sitter! She not only kept me updated but asked any necessary questions to make sure everything was an easy transition and did such an awesome job at trying to keep his schedule as consistent as possible. Thank you so much for everything !”
“Vanja was amazing and my Bentley was so comfortable that she ate her kibble. Bentley never eats with the sitter until she cannot take it any longer, which is about three days. On a three day trip, she ate after the first day which is unheard of. Vanja created a wonderful space for her to feel comfortable and enjoy. Vanja is kind, patient and a true professional, we would love to use her again.”

About: Caring for animals is my calling in life! I earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Zoology from Humboldt State University. As a dedicated veterinary technician and docent for the Big Bear Zoo, I have the privilege of providing exceptional care to a wide range of animals and pets. My commitment to the wellbeing of all animals goes beyond just a job; it's a lifelong passion! I'm currently working full time at an emergency animal hospital off the mountain. However, I work double shifts to allow myself some days off during the week and look forward to making some new furry friends! Caring for pets in a client's home is a responsibility I take very seriously, ensuring their comfort, safety, and happiness while their owners are away. My approach to in-home pet care includes: Meet and Greet: I begin by meeting with the client and their pet(s) to establish a rapport and understand their specific needs and routines. Feeding and Hydration: I adhere to the provided feeding schedule, ensuring that pets receive the right amount of food and fresh water. Special dietary requirements are noted and followed diligently. Exercise and Play: Regular exercise and playtime are essential for a pet's physical and mental well-being. I engage in activities tailored to the pet's age and energy level, whether it's a spirited game of fetch or a leisurely walk. Medication and Health Monitoring: If the pet requires medication or has specific health needs, I administer treatments as prescribed by the veterinarian. I also monitor their overall health and report any concerns to the owner promptly. Grooming and Cleanliness: Maintaining the pet's cleanliness is a priority. I provide necessary grooming, including brushing, bathing, and litter box cleaning, to ensure they are comfortable and hygienic. Affection and Companionship: Pets often thrive on companionship and affection. I spend quality time with them, offering cuddles, petting, and positive reinforcement to alleviate any separation anxiety. Security and Home Care: I maintain the security of the client's home by ensuring all doors and windows are locked, and I handle any mail or packages. This gives clients peace of mind while they're away. Daily Updates: Regular communication with the client is crucial. I provide daily updates through texts, photos, or videos to keep them informed about their pet's well-being and activities. Emergency Preparedness: I am trained, experienced and prepared for unexpected situations, including medical emergencies. I have contact information for the client's preferred veterinarian and am beyond qualified for basic pet first aid. Respect for Property: I treat the client's home with the utmost respect, leaving it as clean and tidy as I found it. Overall, my goal is to create a stress-free and nurturing environment for pets in the client's home, allowing them to thrive in their familiar surroundings while their owners are away.
“Chelsea was absolutely wonderful. Great communication, knowledgeable, and overall a great person. She made me feel very comfortable with my decision from the get go and she asked many questions to make sure she knew everything about how we take care of our 4 month old puppy Nova. She helped us maintain training with Nova and gave great advice and tips to make the our training journey smoother. She sent many videos and pictures while we were gone. Nova was as happy as could be and well taken care of. I highly recommend Chelsea if you are looking for someone who truly loves dogs in all aspects!”
“I was very happy with Kimberly. Our dog was very scared and not on his best behavior on Day 1. Kimberly reached out for advice instead of giving up. It worked! He calmed down and all went well from there! I appreciated her patience and resolve. She communicated during my trip and sent pictures which put my mind at ease. I recommend her and will definitely be a return customer!”
“Nathaniel did a splendid job caring for our dogs! He was very kind and responsive to all of my questions. Our dogs were happy when we picked them up. I will definitely use his services again.”
“Shane is an amazing pet sitter! He took excellent care of Lucky, my dog. He had great communication and always went above and beyond to ensure Lucky’s well-being. Lucky had a fantastic time staying at Shane’s place! Thank you once again for taking such good care of Lucky! I highly recommend Shane if you need to board your pets.”
“What a great experience! We were so thrilled to have Poppy stay with Ruby. We got lots of adorable pictures and videos during her stay, and she came home happy and relaxed after her vacation. We will be returning to Ruby next time we travel!”
“Emily was so caring and considerate with my dog! I felt so comfortable leaving her with Emily, and she sent videos of my puppy playing with her pack daily. Emily provided lots of enrichment for my dog so I felt like she had the best experience when I was away. I would wholeheartedly use Emily's services again, and would recommend her to anyone who needs to leave their pup with a reliable and trustworthy person.”
“Dakota did an amazing job with our Luke! We had a trip that we had planned and we needed someone to watch Luke for about 9 days. I was very skeptical about leaving him with a complete stranger for that long but I had no other option. I came across a post from Dakota a couple weeks ago and I looked over her reviews and she seemed like the perfect candidate! She doesn’t watch tons of dogs at a time and that’s exactly what we needed since Luke is still a puppy and gets frightened and overwhelmed when there’s too much going on. While on our vacation we communicated with Dakota to check in on Luke and she gave us updates and reassurance. My daughter was having a hard time being away from him and Dakota’s videos of Luke really comforted her and helped her get through our trip without Luke. Our flight landed late at night and Dakota was very accommodating so that we could still pick up Luke. Overall he had a great stay and we will definitely continue to use Dakotas services. Our Luke looks very well taken care of and gots lots of love while we were away!”
