About: Hello, my name is Eileen but I go by my middle name, Liani (pronounced: Lee-Ahh-Nee) what truly sets me apart is that caring for animals doesn’t feel like a job to me, it’s something I genuinely love. I’ve grown up around many different kinds of pets and feel comfortable adapting to each animal’s unique personality and needs. Through TrustedHousesitters, I’ve earned positive reviews by being reliable, communicative, and respectful of both pets and homes. Whether your pet is playful, shy, or needs extra reassurance, I take the time to make them feel at ease. I have a very flexible schedule as I am currently in grad school so I definitely do not mind last minute scheduling if I can fit it in and work around whatever I have going on for the week. My cats are very loving and social— with both other cats and dogs! My smallest one (about 7 months now) lovesss playing with everyone. I have done very well with instructions left by people I have pets sat for and have done well.
About: With a lifetime of hands-on experience caring for animals, I bring both knowledge and genuine compassion to every pet I look after.

Today, I continue that passion on my small ranch, where I care for animals daily and understand their unique needs, behaviors, and personalities. My experience includes feeding routines, basic health awareness, administering simple care, and creating a safe, calm environment for animals of all kinds.

I also offer faith-based care, treating every animal with kindness, respect, and a sense of purpose. I believe in providing a peaceful, loving environment where your pet will feel at home and well cared for while you’re away. As a stay-at-home mom, I’m home throughout the day and able to give animals consistent care and attention. I check on them in the morning, midday, and evening to make sure they’re fed, comfortable, and getting the care they need. My daily routine allows me to provide a steady, safe, and attentive environment for every pet. I provide safe, reliable care by respecting each pet’s unique needs. I follow owner instructions closely, maintain a secure environment, and make sure every fur baby feels comfortable and cared for.

Over time, animals have became a passion and motivation of mine as I have three cats and a mini dachshund on my own. I got my puppy when he was 2 months old and raised him so I am absolutely open to caring for puppies! When it comes to any other accommodations, feel free to ask any questions! I am currently working from home remotely and have extra time in the morning and evening, that i am trying to discover a new hobby for myself. i care for my dog all day and visit the dog park twice a day. I have a closed backyard with a fenced gate. When it comes to caring for a fur baby in the parents home, I am very patient and understanding when it comes to any boundaries and rules.

About: I have had many pets since I was a baby. I can care for a hamster, bunny, cats, dogs, birds. F you have a special needs animal I will do my research and get caught up with any details that the pet might need. I am very clean organised. I love animals. All shapes and forms. I clean up after my personal pets numerous times a day. I will walk the pets if owners allow me to. My personal dog gets carried when he gets tired so if your pet is small enough to carry on a walk I can do that also. I never ignore any pets especially if they have anxiety. I allow pets on furniture if they are clean. I also give baths if the owner asks for one. Im not a professional pet groomer but if needed a bath, blow dry, and brush I have had experience with my own pets when needed a quick clean up a few days before taken to the groomers.

Caring for animals has been a part of my daily life for over 10 years, and I truly believe I've earned my stripes—and maybe a few accolades along the way. But more than anything, my pets have given me a deep sense of purpose and taught me the meaning of kindness. For that, I’m endlessly grateful. I don’t see myself as their owner—they own me. I often say I rescued them from the pound, but the truth is, they rescued me. Their love and companionship have been life-changing. My love for animals goes beyond my own home.

If you're looking for someone who treats every pet like family, I’d be honored to help. I have to admit—I cheat a little.

I work closely with each owner to make sure your pet routine stays intact—whether it’s a special diet, a favorite toy, or a quirky bedtime ritual. I’m super flexible and always open to suggestions. After all, no one knows your pet better than you! So if you're looking for a laid-back, tech-savvy pet sitter who treats your pets like royalty (and maybe spoils them just a little), I’d love to chat!

About: Hello I’m Ashley!! I am a huge animal lover and I have such a soft heart for every single one. I grew up in a small town and with not a lot money but I always somehow managed to find a stray cat to take home. I could never leave a cat or dog my heart will not let me and I’d always take them home till I found there forever home. I say kitty sanctuary because the amount of times I found cats or kittens and took them home! We didn’t have much growing up but I gave my all to my pets and even got my first job at 14 working at a snackbar for a baseball field and everything I made always went to getting food and extra food for the kitties I’d find. We had one dog growing up and sadly gave him away but I love dogs just as much!! The last two years I have dog sat for my neighbors who go on a few trips and I’ve been told I’m very attentive and friendly. I also watch my best friends cat for her every time she goes out of town. You can rely on me to keep things tidy, daily feeding, fresh water, picking up poop and I’ve had a sick cat before so I can do medications as well! I’m a very happy and big hearted person it’s just me naturally so you know your animals will be getting all my love and attention. I can assure you that your pets will be in very good hands and I will do all the basics and requirements you ask. Your home and pet will be given the same respect and care that I take with my own valuables. I have one part time job so I have a lot of availability to help out!!

I usually only work mon- wed but I can always work around and figure it out. Id prefer your pets to stay home since they are typically more comfortable when they are in they’re own home and I want to make sure your pet feels happy an safe! If you needed for them to stay with me we can talk about it and I just have one little kitty with me who loves all animals just as much as me!

Perfect for high energy dogs - Durmid
About: I have been watching over pups of all ages from a few weeks old to senior pup ages giving them all the cuddles, exercise, and snacking of fruits and vegetables to keep them on their toes. There's always time to relax and rest when I close up the curtains and change the lights to a nice dog cartoon or video for them to fall asleep to or cool down from the sun. I have been a foster parent for pups with my husband for about 2 years and never looked back, we have fostered over 12 pups of all ages to families all over the valley and continue to do so until we move to Oregon. I make home made food and treats depending on what I have available at the moment and provide them with different varieties of snacks that are healthy for them. I give them my attention and my fur babies get to play and socialize with everyone welcoming everyone and sharing all their toys🥰 I am currently staying home while my husband works and I do insta cart shopping depending on the day. And looking into getting my masters online so I have plenty of time to give them the attention they need. I have crates and gates depending on the pups needs. I have my home set up to section off pups if they need time to relax or go and play with others without bothering anyone else.

About: I love dogs and grew up having all types of breeds but I am any pet friendly. I have had snakes, tortoises, a bunny and now I have a cat! My dog knowledge comes mostly from personal experience that I have optained from my lifetime of being a pet owner. At the moment I don't have a doggy in my life but I need one. I would love to practice my trading, playing and dog walking until I can add a dog to my life but in the meantime I'll enjoy the company of any doggy that will let me. My schedule is very free and flexible. I work part time and do some volunteer work so even though I'm available 90 percent of the time knowing ahead of time what pet might need some attention would be very helpful. Now I have a fenced yard. It's small but there is a park just down the street. To keep the pet in my home, it would need to be crate trained since I have a cat indoors (at least I can know that both pets are safe. And if it's at a clients home then whatever works for the pet and owner. That may be preferable but it all depends

“Christine took very good care of my dog, Mika. She sent regular updates with photos, and was quick to respond to my check-ins as well. Overall, very positive experience. Thank you!”
“Our dogs stayed while we were at Coachella and we were so at peace knowing they were in such good hands. They sent photos and kept us updated throughout the weekend. Would highly recommend! Thank you!”
“Ruby was exceptional! Our boy Ronin had a fantastic time and Ruby was very gracious about taking photos and videos and sending them to us throughout his stay. We would absolutely have Ronin stay with Ruby again! Highly Recommend! Michael”
About: I have had many pets since I was a baby. I can care for a hamster, bunny, cats, dogs, birds. F you have a special needs animal I will do my research and get caught up with any details that the pet might need. I am very clean organised. I love animals. All shapes and forms. I clean up after my personal pets numerous times a day. I will walk the pets if owners allow me to. My personal dog gets carried when he gets tired so if your pet is small enough to carry on a walk I can do that also. I never ignore any pets especially if they have anxiety. I allow pets on furniture if they are clean. I also give baths if the owner asks for one. Im not a professional pet groomer but if needed a bath, blow dry, and brush I have had experience with my own pets when needed a quick clean up a few days before taken to the groomers.

Caring for animals has been a part of my daily life for over 10 years, and I truly believe I've earned my stripes—and maybe a few accolades along the way. But more than anything, my pets have given me a deep sense of purpose and taught me the meaning of kindness. For that, I’m endlessly grateful. I don’t see myself as their owner—they own me. I often say I rescued them from the pound, but the truth is, they rescued me. Their love and companionship have been life-changing. My love for animals goes beyond my own home. I regularly feed the cats and dogs in my neighborhood, especially during extreme weather. It’s something I do with joy, knowing that a small act of care can make a big difference. If you're looking for someone who treats every pet like family, I’d be honored to help. I have to admit—I cheat a little. Yep, I’ve got automatic feeders and robot litter boxes doing some of the heavy lifting. But hey, that just means your fur babies get consistent meals and a squeaky-clean bathroom, even when I’m not hovering over them! I’ve transformed my cozy den into a cage-free, climate-controlled paradise where your cats can roam, lounge, and judge me silently (LOL) without ever being stuck in a kennel. It’s all about keeping them comfy and stress-free while you’re away. I work closely with each owner to make sure your pet routine stays intact—whether it’s a special diet, a favorite toy, or a quirky bedtime ritual. I’m super flexible and always open to suggestions. After all, no one knows your pet better than you! So if you're looking for a laid-back, tech-savvy pet sitter who treats your pets like royalty (and maybe spoils them just a little), I’d love to chat!
