Personalized care for your dog or cat - Hoopa

“Our Fogs are happy and healthy after a pretty long stay with Whitney. We truly appreciated her flexibility with our changeable schedule. Thank you so much!”

“Halley was absolutely amazing! She took such great care of Roxy, my Great Dane who, let’s be honestly, is an absolute handful. I’ve honestly never seen her so happy after a weekend away from home! 10/10 :)”

About: I grew up with dogs and have always considered them essential members of the family. We always had large breed dogs, and while they could be a lot of work, it was worth it to be able to go through life with these amazing creatures. I’m happy to spend time with your furry friend, whatever their energy level or particularities. I am a writer who works from home, so I can commit to spending plenty of quality time with your pup, going on walks or hanging out at home. I’m also happily to take them to the dog park once in a while if that’s something your pup enjoys. I have a fenced yard and a dog of my own. Bhalu is a 14-year-old lab mix who will be overjoyed to meet your pup for approximate 5 minutes, after which he will lose interest and go off to do his own thing.

“Neil and Mariah are amazing dog sitters. They go above and beyond for Biscuit. Biscuit would only eat boiled meat while he was with them for a week and refused to eat other food. Neil and Mariah bought more chicken and prepared it for Biscuit. I highly recommend them.”

About: I've had dogs my whole life and have always felt a special connection to them - big or small, couch potato or activity tornado, young or less young. My dogs, Nitsa and Indigo, are well trained, friendly, and two of my very best friends. We love going on walks to the dog beach by our house, playing in the yard, or just relaxing together :) I would absolutely love to spend time with your pups! I'm a current grad student with a very flexible schedule, and my partner works from home every day. Our dogs love to play, and would be excited to share their space with a new friend. I have a fenced, private yard accessible through a doggy door and two sweet pups for long hours or play or cuddles. My neighborhood is quiet and somewhat remote, so your furry family member will be able to truly relax.

“Chandi took great care of my dog and sent cute photos while watching her. She took my booking last minute, and was super kind and attentive throughout! I would definitely book with her again the future. I felt comfortable leaving my dog with her and my dog is calm, happy, clean and safe which the most important thing. Thank you Chandi!! :)”

About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all sizes, ages, and breeds for as long as I can remember. My experience ranges from training puppies to caring for elderly dogs to providing medication and much much more. The happiest moments of my life have been with my dogs and the animals I look after. I can’t wait to meet and care for yours! I’m a remote worker with a very flexible schedule who lives across the street from a dog beach, which allows me to give your pet the attention they deserve. The happiness of your pet (and your ease of mind) is my top priority! I have a large fully fenced yard that will keep your dog happy and exercised! My home also has two friendly dogs that are ready to meet and play with your pet. I’m happy to leave my dogs at home to do in-house visits for pets that are less social :)

“Stari was an awesome sitter for our special needs pooch. She sent us regular updates and even shared photos of Chloe enjoying walks on the beach. Very sweet and professional. Highly recommended.”

“Alejandra was very sweet and kind. My dog took to her right away. She was very good with communication and pictures and took great care of Bodhi :)”

Madeline R.

“My dogs were comfortable with Jessie and I appreciated her flexibly about drop off and pick up times. Her photos and welfare updates were great especially since this was my first time leaving my girls overnight for two nights. I would want Jessie’s help again next time I plan more exploration of the great outdoors in the Humboldt county area.”

Lily W.

“Jessica was fantastic! So caring and thoughtful and great for dogs with anxiety and leash reactivity. He has a great time with her! Thank you Jessica!”

Mitra A.

“Anna watched my 6month old kitty, Glacier. She sent pictures and regular updates and my kitty seemed to enjoy having a new place to explore and play in! She was clearly well taken care of.”

About: I have pet-sat and house-sat since I was 18 years old. I love working with animals and helping others by caretaking responsibilities. I am energized and playful with both cats and dogs. I have most of my experience with cats and dogs. I treat them with love and respect always. Sometimes I sing to them and brighten their spirits. I have many references for housesitting and pet sitting. I enjoy caretaking and stewarding peoples homes. I also enjoy being a helper and lightning others’ loads. My family dog passed away one year ago and I love any opportunity to connect with more dogs. They bring me so much joy and happiness. I am very patient and positive. Easy to communicate with. I am currently self-employed, doing jobs like dogsitting, dog walking, doula support, meal prepping and personal chef work so my schedule is very flexible and I can cater to your needs. I am a very respectful guest in other’s homes. I love to leave places better than when I first arrived. I enjoy playing with pets with their favorite toys or throwing the ball in the backyard. I am very available and flexible with my schedule so that provides ample opportunity for potty breaks, walking, playing and overall catering to pets’ needs.

About: Years of ownership experience with dogs, cats & horses. Will care for yours at your place. Special diet/meds? No problem. Grooming, walking, vet visits, companionship. Currently have an open schedule and can work my day around yours on a first come, first serve basis. I am available for overnight stays. Whether it's Play time, Nap time, or Dinner time, I will make sure your pet is well cared for in the comfort of their own home.

“Whitney hosted my anxious pup Oscar for daycare, and took great care of him! I appreciate her kindness and attention spent on helping my boy feel comfortable. I would definitely rebook next time I’m in the area. Thanks Whitney!”

“I would definitely recommend Mariah and Neil for pet sitting. Let’s face it little dogs are sometimes a little more high maintenance. They really seem to understand small dog behavior, which I appreciate! They are great communicators and are fast at responding, which is so helpful. Thank you for letting my pup stay.”

“Stari was very warm and caring. Mister President had his tail wagging as we approached her. The second visit, he pulled me towards her door. He had a great time both dates and came home happy and tired. She sent updates and was very kind.”

Jennifer S.

“Anna is responsive and responsible. Leaves my house immaculate and my dog is very happy when she’s here. She communicates well and keeps me informed.”

About: Hello! My name is Imogen! I have lived in Humboldt for about a year now, and I’m excited to start caring for pets in our community. I’ve been around animals my whole life and have experience caring for all kinds of pets, animals, and livestock. I’m comfortable with animals of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels, and I genuinely enjoy getting to know each animal and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’m responsible, patient, and detail-oriented, and I understand how important it is to feel comfortable trusting someone with your pets and your home. I’m also very clean and respectful of other people’s spaces. I’ll keep your pets’ areas clean, pick up after them, clean up any messes they make, and make sure your home is left tidy and cared for. I’m happy to follow your pets’ normal routines and instructions closely, and I’ll keep you updated so you can have peace of mind knowing how they’re doing. I also have extensive equine experience, including teaching riding lessons and summer camps and working as a working student at two different barns. I’m familiar with all aspects of large-animal care and can provide my résumé and professional equine references upon request. My schedule is very flexible, so I’m happy to work with your pets’ routines and needs! I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and overnight stays, and I’m always happy to spend extra time playing and giving your pets attention. For longer stays, I’m also happy to water plants, bring in mail, and help keep things tidy around the home. I love giving pets more than just the basics! I’m happy to play, go on walks, and give them plenty of attention and enrichment. If you’re comfortable with it, I’d also love to take your dog on local adventures, whether that’s a walk through Sequoia Park or a trip to the beach. I’ll always follow your instructions and your pet’s normal routine while making sure they get plenty of exercise, attention, and affection.
