“The only difficult part of writing this review is finding enough good things to say about Elena. Every interaction, from my first communication to picking up Puck after his stay, conveyed both a love of animals and professionalism. We met first in a local park for a meet and greet, where Elena and I chatted and her daughter played with Puck. I felt really comfortable with Elena’s easy manner and the questions she asked to ensure that Puck would be happy with them. I left in confidence when I dropped Puck off, and the photos she sent made it clear that Puck was happy and well cared for. Her daughter makes for a wonderful added bonus; Elena told me when I picked him up that her daughter made a fort for them, and it was clear in the pics that Puck received lots of play time with his favorite toys. When I picked up Puck after his stay, he was of course happy to see me, but not overcome with nervousness or anxiety. I could see that he felt safe and loved in Elena’s home. When I arrived home, he slipped right back into normal routines without needing decompression time. Thank you, Elena, for providing Puck with a warm and loving home-away-from-home.”
“Mae made my first time leaving my Frenchie with someone outside of family so easy and comforting. She and her family cared for her like their own and sent sweet updates throughout the weekend. I’m so grateful for Mae’s kindness and will definitely book with her again!”
“My Buzz loved his stay with Nicole and her family! They treated him with so much love and he made himself right at home! She even checked on him after he came back home because they missed him and he sure missed them too! I will most definitely without any hesitation let Nicole look after him again! Thank you Nicole and family for taking such great care of my Buzz!”
“Kristin was a great caregiver for our 11 year old dog who tends to be very anxious when she’s in a new environment. She was very caring and nurturing with our girl and sent us updates and pictures while we were away. We highly recommend her to care for your fur baby!”
“Skyler is such a wonderful doggy caregiver! You can tell our little guys feel comfortable and safe with her and her family. Our doggies are relaxed and balanced when we pick them up (even our anxious one), and her updates with pictures are something we look forward to each day we’re away”
“I’m so glad I found Aimee and her family! My pup came home exhausted, happy, and so well taken care of! I could tell he was having a great time by all the pictures Aimee sent. Lovely home and family, would recommend to anyone!”
“Wowwwww!!! What a life saver you are Susana !! Thank you so much for the last minute care and the love you gave to Turbo. You were so kind and very much so easy going to the requests. Thank you for the quick responses and the pictures throughout the day. You’re so appreciated!”
“Melissa is always so accommodating and willing to host Kylo even if it’s a last minute request. She really treats him as one of her own doggies, always spoiling him with lots of cuddles, treats, and multiple walks throughout the day. She also sends multiple pictures and updates throughout the day to put your mind at ease! Thank you Melissa, Kylo can’t wait for his next stay with you!”
“Areli was super kind and took great care of our dog Charlie! She sent us lots of photos and updates while he stayed with her. Definitely recommend her to anyone needing boarding for their pets 💖”
“Kevin was excellent with Sporty! He made him feel super comfortable and sent constant updates. He was so awesome Sporty will be returning to stay with him for 5 days for our upcoming travels.”
“We feel so lucky to have found Weihui! She and her husband were incredibly warm and welcoming to both us and our dog from the very beginning. Weihui asked thoughtful questions at drop-off, which immediately gave us confidence that our dog would be in great hands. Throughout the stay, she kept us updated with detailed messages, along with plenty of photos and videos that gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear how much genuine love, attention, and care she gave our dog, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We’re truly grateful to their family for taking such wonderful care of our dog. We will absolutely be booking with Weihui again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy sitter!”
“We are so grateful for Tiffany and her family, and the love they showed Winston for his 2 week stay! She provided us with regular updates and pictures / videos, allowed him to swim in their pool when he jumped in (and even gave him a bath after!), and treated him as one of their own when they dressed him up in Christmas clothes with their other dogs. He had such a great time with their two dogs who matched his energy well!”
“Coco was in excellent hands! We received constant updates, photos, and videos throughout our trip, which gave us total peace of mind. The communication was fantastic. I highly recommend them for anyone looking for attentive and reliable care for their pet. They definitely gained us as a customer. Until next time!”
“We had a wonderful experience leaving our dog Happy, a Chiweenie (Dachshund–Chihuahua mix), with Ms.Li. From the very beginning, communication was great and reassuring. The sitter shared daily updates and photos, which meant so much to us. Happy always looked relaxed, comfortable, and happy, and it was clear he was receiving genuine care and attention. Thanks to this, we were able to fully enjoy our time away without any stress or worries. We are very satisfied and would highly recommend Ms.Li to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog”
“Anh and William were amazing! They sent updates and photos of Yeti every day. They took him on daily walks and their whole family played with him. They got to know Yeti pretty well and he had a great time with their dog as well! Super awesome!”
“Yulia and her family are so sweet! I really feel like they took excellent care of my pups while we were away. She was very communicative too, I really appreciate that! Would definitely book with her again.”

“Erin is so attentive and caring! I absolutely hate leaving our baby girl behind. She hates being alone, plus she breaks out of her onesie that covers a wound. We are so grateful for Erin sending photos and messaging us the whole way through. She knew how important it was to me to get that peace of mind. She’s amazing!”
“This is our second time booking Caleb to take care of our cat Eliza, and everything went great as expected! Caleb is friendly, on-time, and followed all instructions to care for Eliza. I would highly recommend him for anyone looking for a sitter!”
“They were so great with Topo and Coco! Lots of pictures and updates the whole visit which we appreciate! We are so happy to have found such amazing sitters for them!!”
“Graham was absolutely fantastic! Our kitties were happy, healthy! Their food/water filled and clean, the litter box was looked after well. Graham was super kind the entire time and was flexible when we came back from our trip early. He kept us updated on our fur babies through the app and reached out when necessary. Will definitely request him again And would recommend him to other. :)”
“Nichole is fantastic! She is so polite, timely and great with the cats. She is also very respectful of client boundaries during covid, and she went out of her way to come and get our extra key prior to the drop-in date. We will definitely book her again when we use Rover!”

I have personally owned and cared for two dogs these past 15 years. My last dog was a rescued senior with a host of health issues that we managed with medication, acupuncture/laser therapy, mobility exercises and a couple specialist vets...so if you're in need of senior care I can provide that. I can also provide walks, play, snuggles...basically whatever your pet needs to fulfill them while you're away. About this sitter: I love animals and I want to make your furry companion(s) as happy as they are when you are home with them. I'm up for whatever you're furry friend likes to do (hikes, long walks, ball playing, just hanging out etc). I am super reliable and want to provide the best care to your pooch while you are away! I am a responsible house guest and will always leave things the way I found them. I guarantee your pooch will have a great time! At this time I'm not offering in home services as a couple of my cats are fearful. As for watching your pet in your home I will adhere to your instructions. I am able to provide walks, play, snuggles etc. My dog is a senior and on quite a few medications so I am well versed in administering medications also.
About: I treat every pet like family — with patience, love, and a deep respect for their unique personalities and needs. Whether it's walks, drop-in visits, or overnight stays I’m reliable, experienced, and committed to keeping your pet safe, happy, and comfortable. I provide enriching walks tailored to your dog’s pace and energy level. During drop-in visits I make sure your pet feels engaged and at ease, whether that means playtime or companionship. For overnight care I maintain your pet’s routine and give them the same comfort and affection they’d receive from you. You can count on me to be dependable, respectful of your home, and deeply caring towards your fur baby! I am currently servicing the Santa Clarita/Castaic area in the evenings on weekdays and full-time on weekends. I’m also servicing the Camarillo area. I currently live in Castaic and work in Camarillo Monday-Friday from 10am-6pm. During drop-in visits, I make sure your pet feels safe, cared for, and engaged, whether it’s feeding, playtime, or just some comforting company. I also provide loving, reliable overnight care so your pet feels safe and comfortable in their own home. I stick to their routine, offer plenty of companionship, and keep you updated for peace of mind. You can count on me to be reliable, respectful, and attentive every time I visit your home.
About: I’m a cat mom myself. I’ve raised my two cats since they were just 2 months old, and they’re now 3 and 5 years old. Caring for them has taught me how important it is to respect each cat’s personality, routine, and comfort level. I know that every cat is different, some love to play, some prefer quiet companionship, and others need a little extra patience before they warm up. I’ll never force interactions and will always care for your cat at their own pace while making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable in their home. When I care for your cat, I’ll treat them like one of my own. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else, and my goal is to give you peace of mind through reliable care, plenty of affection (if your cat wants it!), and regular updates so you always know how your furry family member is doing.
About: With 13 years of experience, caring for dogs isn’t just something I do—it’s truly part of who I am. My love for pups started at 18 when my chihuahua was born right under my bed. We’ve grown up together, and now that she’s a senior, I’ve learned how to give older dogs the gentle, attentive care they need. I also recently brought home a lively young chiweenie rescue, so I understand how to balance playful energy with the slower pace of an older dog. Whether your pup needs long walks, cozy cuddles, or just some patient company, I’m here to make them feel safe and loved. I offer in-home visits and pet sitting. Monday through Thursday, I’m available for morning walks, evening drop-ins, and after-work hangs. From Friday to Sunday, I’m free all day for weekend stays, midday walks, or extra one-on-one time. I provide a calm home and a flexible routine, your dog will always be treated like family—getting the care, attention, and affection they need and deserve.
“-great attention to detail & took care of our cat while away Spent time playing with Audrey, And showing him some love. Our cat was healthy & not as angry for being left alone”
“Irina is a very caring and kind lady and took a great care of our kitten , Honey, while we were traveling. She kept sending multiple daily updates about the kitten , her daily plays, appetite and so many videos and photos of her every day. Our kitten was very happy and healthy with her. Highly recommend her and would return for a future service!”
“Keleigh did drop in visits with out cat Niko. She texted us multiple pictures every day, some of which Niko was actually sitting on her lap, completely content! That made me smile! She also texted how he was doing, filling water bowl and let us know status on all his surroundings. I would definitely use her services again! Thanks Keleigh!”

“We needed a dog sitter asap while we got our kitchen demolished for renovation. Our 9 month old Shepherd mix had a great time. He played with her dog, he was walked and he took naps throughout the day. I was updated with pictures and videos. It assured our family to know he was in good hands. Thank you so much Elena ❤️ Look forward to bringing our puppy back again when we need your services.”
“My baby Makana had a great time at JJ’s house.. Though we didn’t see the host’s interior of the house where the pets are, the pictures she had sent looked clean and safe.. It’s Makana’s first time to socialize with 2 dogs since she turned 2 yrs old due to some health issues when she’s a pup. We thought it’s time for her to explore and find out if she is well adjusted now that she’s an adult.She is as expected to be a little shy but was able to adapt and became comfortable. She is tired and pretty happy bec she had a play date with Zuri ( the host’s furbaby) and another furbaby. I’m glad that JJ has been sending pic and videos of our baby’s socialization activities and so nice of their son to play with the FBabies.. Thank you and will definitely recommend her services.”
“Llona was wonderful. She responded very quickly to my last minute request. My dog definitely perceives the vibe of people and as soon as he met her he happily ran into her home. She sent me photos of her boys playing with our dog...he loves children and you can see they are dog lovers too. She was in good communication while caring for our dog which of course made me feel comfortable...no worry on my part. Funny enough dropping your dog off to a stranger is like dropping your child off ...you want to know they are well cared for and that they feel safe and of course have fun. I would give it an A+ day for his first visit with Llona. And we will def use her again and recommend her!”
“I would 100% recommend Areli to care for your fur baby! It was my first time leaving my boy and she went above and beyond to update me with photos and keep me informed. I will for certain be rebooking with Areli !!”
About: I have over 30 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds and sizes. In my early years, I trained working for border service, which gave me strong skills in discipline, behavior understanding, and dog communication. Today, our family has three dogs of our own; one senior dog ( 8 years old ), one young and active dog ( 2 years old), and one rescue dog ( approximately 3 years old). All of them are Friendly, well- socialized , and non-aggressive. My daughter and i truly love dogs and treat every pet as part of our family. We provide a safe, calm, and caring environment, whether it's for boarding or daily walks. We are attentive to each dog's need, routines, and personality. I am home full-time, so your dog. I work from home, so your dog will always have attention and care. In the morning, my daughter walks he dogs before school. During the day, I provide walks, playtime, and supervision. In the evening, we usually walk together as a family. We have a safe and comfortable home for dogs. Our dogs are friendly and well-socialized. I always supervise interactions and make sure every dog feels calm and secure. If needed, I can separate dogs to ensure safety and comfort.
“Melisa was amazing, offered to even meet prior to the arrangement and took wonderful care of our pup. We will be using her in the future, glad we found her. Very responsive and flexible.”
“Teddy Bear, our goldendoodle stayed with Fiona for one week and he had the best time. She made home cooked meals, sent us pictures and videos all the time and treated Teddy like family. Fiona and her family watched Teddy Bear and took extra special care and love! Teddy played with her sons, bubbles and lots of exercise/walks in a very dog friendly neighborhood. He was smiling in the pictures she sent and we could tell Teddy was happy in her care. Best dog sitter ever! We found our dog sitter for every family trip knowing that Teddy had a mini vacation with Fiona’s family too. Thank you so much!”
“This was our first experience with home boarding. Our dog Kisses stayed for they day just to see how everything would work. Nicole sent a photo of her and let us know she was doing well. We were happy with her communication. We would use Nicole again.”

About: As a paranoid pet owner, I had only one person I would trust with my senior dog other than myself. I would like to be that person for you. I have a ton of experience with senior dogs and their needs and younger dogs? No problem. Pets are our family. I am small in stature and cannot handle large dogs. Please keep that in mind. Thank you! I look forward to meeting your fur babies! I'm a substitute teacher, I'm currently not working and available everyday. Starting in August, I will be working 3 days a week and available at 4 PM. I have a fenced yard and currently no other animals in the household as my dog just went to the rainbow bridge a couple months ago.
About: I have experience with big and little dogs which I’ve been doing for over 30 years. I would bring me great joy to spend time with all dogs Recently retired looking to fill in days and nights helping others take care of their fur babies as I love taking care of my little one I have a fenced in yard or I can crate the dog if needed. I live at the end of a cul-de-sac where there’s plenty of room to walk and play
“Laura was very nice in assuring me my dogs would be well taken care of during my day away. I was able to enjoy my day out with my family and felt like I didn’t need to worry about my anxious dogs. The dogs seemed happy when I came to pick them up! Often times when my German Shepherd mix is left without me, her eyes turn red due to anxiety. When I picked her up today, her eyes were nice and clear, which tells me she was comfortable. Laura had great communication with me through the day and sent cute photos! 10 mins after I brought my dogs home they were knocked out! I know my girls are EXTREME HANDFULS, I appreciate you caring for them. Thank you so much Laura!”
About: I’m an animal communicator with a deep, intuitive connection to animals — I don’t just care for your pets, I actually listen to them. I’ve spent my life alongside dogs of all temperaments, sizes, and needs, including my own two girls, Daisy and Chloe. I understand animal behavior, body language, and emotional wellbeing on a level that goes beyond feeding and walks. Senior pets, anxious dogs, and strong-willed characters are my specialty. Your fur family will be safe, seen, and genuinely loved while you’re away. I’m currently available full time through mid-September, making this a great time to book! After that I take on seasonal evening work Thursday through Sunday, so I’m still available for daytime care and drop-ins year round. I’ll always be upfront about my schedule so you can plan with confidence. My home has a fenced yard, though the fencing is low enough that larger dogs could potentially jump it. I supervise all outdoor time with bigger dogs until I know their behavior well, so everyone stays safe. My two dogs, Daisy and Chloe are social, dog-park regulars who welcome new friends easily. I have crates available for large dogs if needed, and I’m happy to sit in your home as well if that’s a better fit for your pet.
“Tina is an absolute gem. I left my little Ruby in Tina's care for a few hours to ensure Millie and Ruby got along well enough for a much longer stay coming up soon. It could not have gone better! I am so glad I chose Tina, she met and exceeded all of my expectations.”
About: Dogs have been part of my life as long as I can remember! Love meeting all of them and can't wait to meet your little bud! I make my own schedule, so for the most part I'm available when needed (with proper planning for longer visits of course.) Feel free to reach out when you need a hand! My pup is on pretty good schedule, so I'm know the importance of keeping those scheduled feedings and/or outside time. If we need walks, someone to throw a ball to get the zoomies out or just someone to hang with so they're not alone all day I'm in!
About: I am a mature professional work from home female. I have been taking care of dogs , cats, birds , fish , rabbits , chickens of any kind since I was 10. I grew up on a family farm.

Before going to bed we take a final walk or backyard potty break. I have a nice fenced backyard pet proofed with a net around where your pets can safely play.

About: I have had dogs since my college years. I love animals. I treat them as part of family. Although I no longer have my pup, She was spoiled! She was bathed, fed, walked and has all her needs met. I would take her hiking with me sometimes and she would love it.

About: I’ve grown up caring for animals and currently help care for four dogs and a cat at home, so I’m very comfortable with different routines, personalities, and energy levels. I have experience with young puppies, older dogs, cats, and multi-pet households, so I understand how important consistency and attention are. I’ve also worked with horses, which taught me to be calm, patient, and aware when caring for animals. I genuinely love animals and try to make every pet feel comfortable, cared for, and kept on their normal routine while their owner is away. Pet care already fits naturally into my routine because I’m used to caring for animals daily at home. I’m comfortable planning around feeding schedules, walks, playtime, check-ins, and giving pets consistent attention. I have a pretty open and flexible schedule, so I’m available most days and times. I’m easy to communicate with and like to stay organized ahead of time, but I can also be flexible depending on what’s needed. I take pet care seriously and focus on keeping pets calm, comfortable, and in their normal routine. I pay close attention to instructions and each pet’s personality so everything stays consistent. At home, I care for a young puppy, so I’m used to staying active, patient, and engaged. I also have experience with a puppy who has allergies and needs more attentive, consistent care, so I’m comfortable handling more detailed routines. In addition, I have a senior dog, so I understand the patience and consistency that comes with slower-paced care and medication routines. I also really enjoy taking my dogs on walks and keeping them active. I have a cat as well, so I’m used to daily feeding, keeping up with the litter box, and adjusting to her personality, sometimes social, sometimes more independent. Overall, I’m very comfortable adapting to different needs while keeping everything organized and running smoothly.
“Leah and Edward were great treating walking my two senior pups. One gets very fearful and is partially blind and they were gentle and able to get her going on a walk. They communicated with me every step and sent photos. We Will definitely recommend and use them again!”
“Having Nihcole care for and walk our pets twice each day gives us so much peace of mind and joy when we're away from home. She's a bargain, in addition to being professional, well loved by our pets and bringing positive energy with her to every visit. We're pleased to be able to write a review and recommend her to other people who don't want to board their furry family members when they can't be at home. Nihcole's the best!!!”
“Graham is the best! My dog doesn’t like other dogs and can be a handful, but Graham is so good with him and my puppy always comes back happy and tired from his walks. Graham is such a calm and kind dog walker, it gives me so much peace of mind knowing my dog is in good hands.”
About: I’ve retired from my role as Director of Student Housing at CSU, Bakersfield. I’m an active CrossFit coach with lots of flexible time - and I love dogs! I’ve cared for the animals of loved ones for over 20 years. I’ve also helped care for difficult to handle dogs (seniors, aggressive large breeds, small ornery breeds) and loved every minute of it❤️. I had my Maltese/yorkie boy Yanni 20 years before he passed a few years ago. I’ve also assisted in training rescued, often aggressive bully breeds. Unfortunately, I am allergic to cats. So, I do not work with any cats or households that have a cat. I am a personal trainer and CrossFit coach for people over 50. I have a 17 year old daughter who loves all animals. I have flexibility, transportation, and time to give. We don’t have dogs of our own at this time. I have a fenced patio area, but I love to walk dogs. I am an attentive, responsible, loving caretaker who will happily take care of all your lovie’s need as you instruct. I can give medication and maintain any schedule or rules that you have at home. We don’t let dogs jump up on our furniture and we’ve found as long as they have a comfy spot they generally don’t protest.
“Hailey did a wonderful job with my dog after requesting her services last minute. She even put my package that was delivered, in my home for me, without me asking. Very sweet, very thoughtful. Thank you so much Hailey!!”

About: My family and I have been pet sitting for almost 3-4 years now, and I am now moving into my own business where I travel to clients' houses for pet sitting!

I am a college athlete so sometimes my schedule can get very busy during the winter but, I am mostly free on weekends. Any further scheduling or dates needed will require messaging me privately. I only travel to clients houses who need sitters within their home. I accommodate to all needs necessary to make sure their pets feel safe and secure while their families are away.

My schedule varies weekly, but I am most often available early mornings and in the evenings! I understand I will be a stranger entering your pets home, and that can be scary for them. I pledge to lead with love and respect their space!

About: One of my profile photos is my aunts beautiful Rottweiler ... who is sadly no longer with us. She’s had her since she was a puppy and has been with us for 13 years. I got along very well with her and was able to take care of her all times of her life puppy, teenager, adult and senior.

I love animals of all shapes and sizes and I'm very good with them they seem to like me very much, I love giving them affection and lots of treats and love. However I have experience with much more then dogs, Ive personally cared for many types of animals such as, Cats, Turtles, Rabbits, Hamsters, Fish, Cows, Chickens, and Turkeys. I would love to meet new furry friends and gain more experience with them. I volunteered at the gentle barn for a year and while there I did tasks such as care for the chickens, feed them, get them out of there coops, I worked with turkeys, and cows while there, it was an amazing experience. Anything task that was asked/instructed I gladly did, as it will be with your pet, to ensure the best care :) and I have my very own kitty. currently work part-time, which allows me to have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to pet care. I’m able to plan my schedule around my I care for every pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away.

“We are starting to be regular customers of Marissa. She does a great job and the dogs really like her. I love how she always sends many pics of their walks. Always positive in all of the interactions and let's us know if something may be going on with dogs we should get checked out. You will not be disappointed by using Marissa.”

About: I have had dogs my entire life. My daughter and friends rely on me to take care of their fur babies. They know they are loved, cuddled and well taken care of. They are just like part of my family. I am retired and spend time walking several times a day and would love a fur baby friend to hang out with. I lost my fur baby a year ago. I have a large fenced in area and lots of places to play. No pool. I have lots of great walking areas as well as play areas. I allow dogs to sleep with me. If they need to be crated for comfort that is fine too!

“The only difficult part of writing this review is finding enough good things to say about Elena. Every interaction, from my first communication to picking up Puck after his stay, conveyed both a love of animals and professionalism. We met first in a local park for a meet and greet, where Elena and I chatted and her daughter played with Puck. I felt really comfortable with Elena’s easy manner and the questions she asked to ensure that Puck would be happy with them. I left in confidence when I dropped Puck off, and the photos she sent made it clear that Puck was happy and well cared for. Her daughter makes for a wonderful added bonus; Elena told me when I picked him up that her daughter made a fort for them, and it was clear in the pics that Puck received lots of play time with his favorite toys. When I picked up Puck after his stay, he was of course happy to see me, but not overcome with nervousness or anxiety. I could see that he felt safe and loved in Elena’s home. When I arrived home, he slipped right back into normal routines without needing decompression time. Thank you, Elena, for providing Puck with a warm and loving home-away-from-home.”
“Mae made my first time leaving my Frenchie with someone outside of family so easy and comforting. She and her family cared for her like their own and sent sweet updates throughout the weekend. I’m so grateful for Mae’s kindness and will definitely book with her again!”
“I’m so glad I found Aimee and her family! My pup came home exhausted, happy, and so well taken care of! I could tell he was having a great time by all the pictures Aimee sent. Lovely home and family, would recommend to anyone!”
“Melissa is always so accommodating and willing to host Kylo even if it’s a last minute request. She really treats him as one of her own doggies, always spoiling him with lots of cuddles, treats, and multiple walks throughout the day. She also sends multiple pictures and updates throughout the day to put your mind at ease! Thank you Melissa, Kylo can’t wait for his next stay with you!”
“Kevin was excellent with Sporty! He made him feel super comfortable and sent constant updates. He was so awesome Sporty will be returning to stay with him for 5 days for our upcoming travels.”
“We are so grateful for Tiffany and her family, and the love they showed Winston for his 2 week stay! She provided us with regular updates and pictures / videos, allowed him to swim in their pool when he jumped in (and even gave him a bath after!), and treated him as one of their own when they dressed him up in Christmas clothes with their other dogs. He had such a great time with their two dogs who matched his energy well!”
“Anh and William were amazing! They sent updates and photos of Yeti every day. They took him on daily walks and their whole family played with him. They got to know Yeti pretty well and he had a great time with their dog as well! Super awesome!”

“Nicole went above and beyond with our new dog Charlie (Chuck the Duck). She sent pictures everyday and let us know how he was doing. Took him on walks and made sure he was comfortable in their home. She even helped him out when he had tummy issues by giving him pumpkin! I can’t recommend her enough. We will most definitely be using her again. I’m pretty sure Charlie was upset he had to come home. I mean, I would be.”
“Laura was very accommodating to our last minute schedule adjustment. She took great care of our girl, sent pictures and communicated regularly with courtesy updates. She was kind, professional and we will definitely use Laura again!”
“Kayla was so sweet and took such great care of my dog! She communicated with me throughout the whole time and made me feel completely comfortable leaving my dog with her. You can tell she genuinely cares, and I would definitely trust her again in the future. Highly recommend!”
About: I've been working with and caring for my clients pets since 2020. I've had dogs and cats all my life growing up. My clients testimonies speak for themselves. I'm a full time animal care service provider. My schedule works around my clients and their schedules, very flexible with changing dates if needed, i only ask you give me a heads up notice of 1 day or more. I believe God created animals to care for and to love. Pets are an amazing gift of life. I treat each of my clients pets as if they are my very own.
About: I’ve retired from my role as Director of Student Housing at CSU, Bakersfield. I’m an active CrossFit coach with lots of flexible time - and I love dogs! I’ve cared for the animals of loved ones for over 20 years. I’ve also helped care for difficult to handle dogs (seniors, aggressive large breeds, small ornery breeds) and loved every minute of it❤️. I had my Maltese/yorkie boy Yanni 20 years before he passed a few years ago. I’ve also assisted in training rescued, often aggressive bully breeds. Unfortunately, I am allergic to cats. So, I do not work with any cats or households that have a cat. I am a personal trainer and CrossFit coach for people over 50. I have a 17 year old daughter who loves all animals. I have flexibility, transportation, and time to give. We don’t have dogs of our own at this time. I have a fenced patio area, but I love to walk dogs. I am an attentive, responsible, loving caretaker who will happily take care of all your lovie’s need as you instruct. I can give medication and maintain any schedule or rules that you have at home. We don’t let dogs jump up on our furniture and we’ve found as long as they have a comfy spot they generally don’t protest.
“I had to leave my 15-year-old puppy for the first time to go on a weekend trip, and I’m so glad to found Dina to watch him. Dina was thoughtful and understanding when I told her about all of my puppy’s special needs, including his separation anxiety, and she gave him all of the attention he needed. I got regular updates and photos throughout the weekend, and when my flight home got unexpectedly delayed for five hours, Dina graciously volunteered to watch him for another night. Dina is trustworthy, dependable, and communicative, and I like forward to leaving my puppy with her again in the future”
“We are so grateful to have found Irina to watch our dog Teddy! She reassured us and provided so many updates with cute photos and videos of Teddy. It made me feel so much better being away from him knowing that he was being taken care of so well by Irina! Plus she has the cutest pup Sugar that played so well with Teddy. :) Thank you Irina for caring for Teddy like your own! I highly recommend Irina to watch any animal of yours!”
