About: I have extensive experience with fostering and rescue work. I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, sizes, temperaments, and special needs, helping them feel safe, loved, and comfortable. Working with rescue animals has taught me patience, compassion, and how to understand each dog’s unique personality. I treat every pet as if they were my own and strive to provide a calm, caring environment where they can thrive while you’re away.” Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I work part-time, which gives me plenty of flexibility and time to provide attentive, personalized care for your pup. Whether it’s walks, playtime, cuddles, feeding, or simply keeping them company, I enjoy making sure every dog feels safe, happy, and loved while their family is away. When boarding in my home, your pet will receive plenty of love, attention, and supervised care throughout the day. Dogs enjoy two daily walks of at least 20 minutes each, along with time to play, explore, and relax in my securely fenced yard.
“Haley did an excellent job caring for my high energy dog. My dog was actually tired when she got home and smelled good too! Haley has a calm, caring demeanor and was very flexible with drop-off/pick-up times. It is a huge plus that Haley has other little dogs for my dog to play with. I would definitely book with Haley again.”
“My Kash couldn’t have been in better hands loved the picture updates I received as it was my first time leaving him anywhere. I felt reassured his whole stay there. Will definitely be booking again now that I have someone I can trust with my fur baby.”
“We booked in River last week for the first time for a day and he enjoyed it! He was happy, comfortable with Liz which made me feel comfortable to leave my fur baby with her. He had such a good time that we were comfortable to book him for an overnight stay. And again we were very happy because ww got continuous updates and photos showing us that our dog was fine. And he was. Thank you Liz for putting me and my family at ease, taking care of River for us.💙🐶.”
“This is like my 5th time booking with Julie & Timothy and would not change my dog sitter Snoop (dog) Loves being here they treat him so nice always keeping me updated of Snoop I recommend them 100% and will always bring my dog here”
“This was the best pet sitter we have ever had and gosh have we had a bunch as we travel alot. We got picture updates every few hours, got to see how comfortable our girl was even when she was nervous to leave us, and she even took her with no hesitation after knowing our babe might go into heat! There will never be a question again as to who we leave our girl with! If you don't choose Dominie, you're settling for second best!”
“Alondra was an amazing sitter! If she's willing, I hope to use her again to watch Milo in the future. Booking was a breeze and the meet and greet went so well. Milo was well taken-care-of. Photos and videos were provided several times a day which was appreciated by my family. There are great walking areas near Alondra's residence which makes her a perfect pet sitter! Our family is so grateful for her fantastic care!”
“It was hard to leave my dog with any sitter, however, I’m very glad I left my dog with Akie! She took such good care of my frenchie. Akie was wonderful with my frenchie and really made me feel at ease knowing my frenchie was safe and in good hands. Akie had a great home and very accommodating to dogs.”
About: I have taken care of dogs small to big since i was around 10.

“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.”

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.”
About: I’m a dedicated 21 year old dog lover who currently cares for two rescued female puppies. They are friendly and fixed :) Raising young shelter dogs has given me hands-on experience with puppy routines, socialization, basic training, exercise, and lots of patience. I understand the importance of consistency, positive reinforcement, and creating a safe, comfortable environment for pets. Growing up, I also owned a Chihuahua and spent time dog walking for others ever since I was a kid, which helped me learn how to work with dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I’m comfortable with active puppies, shy dogs, and dogs that need extra attention and reassurance. What sets me apart is that I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and treat every pet as if they were my own. Whether your dog needs playtime, walks, cuddles, or simply a caring companion while you're away, I’m committed to making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I currently work part-time as a delivery driver, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to stay close to home throughout the day. Because of that, I’m able to provide frequent potty breaks, exercise, playtime, feeding, and plenty of attention. I care for my own two young dogs every day, so pet care is already a major part of my routine. When I'm not working, I spend time walking, training, playing with, and caring for them. My flexible schedule allows me to adjust my day around the needs of the pets in my care and make sure they receive the attention, supervision, and affection they deserve. Safety is my top priority when caring for pets. In my home, dogs have access to a large, securely fenced yard where they can play, exercise, and explore safely under supervision. I also have a large crate available for dogs who are crate-trained or need a quiet place to relax. If a dog needs their own space, I can separate them using a dog gate and provide a comfortable area in my home where they can rest safely. I always monitor interactions between pets and make sure each dog is comfortable and stress-free. When caring for pets in a client's home, I follow their routines as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, exercise, medications, and any special instructions. I believe consistency helps pets feel secure and comfortable while their owners are away. My goal is to provide a safe, calm, and caring environment where every pet feels at home.
About: I’ve had pets of all kinds ever since I was a kid. I grew up around livestock and showed pigs through 4-H. I’ve never had a dog-less household, and I strongly believe every dog is a lap dog. I would love to get to know and spoil each and every one of your pups, while keeping you updated every step of the process. Although I only have one review on my profile, I have been taking care of friends’ and family’s pets for years. I guarantee a 5 star experience for you and your pets. I am currently self-employed, so I am extremely flexible when it comes to my schedule. Just let me know what you need, and we can make it happen! I have a fenced in yard, with two of my own indoor/outdoor dogs. There are also 2 indoor/outdoor cats, so no dogs that could put them in danger.
About: I have experience and patience to deal with dogs. My house is well maintenance and have a big yard for dogs to run around and play I have the time to do it. They just need to let me know with time what days and times will they drop off and pick up I keep them in a save enviroment. Feed them as told by per owner. Will have them in good care. And I have the time to care for the dogs and take them for a walk
About: I have always had a dog but I can only attest to caring for those I’ve raised. I’ve raised two labs and a huskie pittie. I currently have a young 1 year old male lab who loves a great play session with another doggy friend. I’ve often dog cat overnight and it gives my pets great socialization opportunities. I currently work full time from home from 8am to 5pm. My dog is routinely walked 1 hours a day with several enticing activities through out my work day. On the weekend I like to take him to the park and hiking if there is no playdate scheduled. I have a fenced yard and the most social dog to keep them company. Plenty of toys and treats. I have two different sized crates and fenced areas to give my cats space when new dogs are visiting.
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.
“Akie is awesome! What a wonderful lady! I'm so blessed I found her here. I'm so glad I picked her for our first time Dog DayCare for our puuppy and we'll definitely stay with her.

I also had last minuetes changes when picking him and she was very kind about it. I know for sure my dog had an awesome stay and felt safe in their home. And I am sure he adored all the attention he got. Will definitely book another stay with her again.”
“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.”

I have a 4 year old Siberian Husky who is very friendly and loves to play. I do crate dogs if they get out of hand and need timeouts. I allow dogs inside and outside. I’ve been around dogs my entire life and treat them like part of the family.
“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: As someone who has owned pets, I have years of experience in caring for both cats, dogs, lizards, and bunnies! 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 during the day time usually from 8-1 or 9-3. 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.

My pets are used to walking at odd hours in the summer, so I'm sure they won't mind 😁 This should be pretty straightforward, as I'm offering walking and home visits. I will not board dogs, as my other pups don't like the intrusion.

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.”

“First time leaving our one year old rowdy boy Lance. Breanna sent videos and checked in with us. Our dog looks like he had the time of his life !!! Not sure he'll want to be home. Totally recommend Breanna. We will definitely use her again.”
“Haley did an excellent job caring for my high energy dog. My dog was actually tired when she got home and smelled good too! Haley has a calm, caring demeanor and was very flexible with drop-off/pick-up times. It is a huge plus that Haley has other little dogs for my dog to play with. I would definitely book with Haley again.”
“My Kash couldn’t have been in better hands loved the picture updates I received as it was my first time leaving him anywhere. I felt reassured his whole stay there. Will definitely be booking again now that I have someone I can trust with my fur baby.”
“We booked in River last week for the first time for a day and he enjoyed it! He was happy, comfortable with Liz which made me feel comfortable to leave my fur baby with her. He had such a good time that we were comfortable to book him for an overnight stay. And again we were very happy because ww got continuous updates and photos showing us that our dog was fine. And he was. Thank you Liz for putting me and my family at ease, taking care of River for us.💙🐶.”
“This is like my 5th time booking with Julie & Timothy and would not change my dog sitter Snoop (dog) Loves being here they treat him so nice always keeping me updated of Snoop I recommend them 100% and will always bring my dog here”
“This was the best pet sitter we have ever had and gosh have we had a bunch as we travel alot. We got picture updates every few hours, got to see how comfortable our girl was even when she was nervous to leave us, and she even took her with no hesitation after knowing our babe might go into heat! There will never be a question again as to who we leave our girl with! If you don't choose Dominie, you're settling for second best!”
“Alondra was an amazing sitter! If she's willing, I hope to use her again to watch Milo in the future. Booking was a breeze and the meet and greet went so well. Milo was well taken-care-of. Photos and videos were provided several times a day which was appreciated by my family. There are great walking areas near Alondra's residence which makes her a perfect pet sitter! Our family is so grateful for her fantastic care!”
“It was hard to leave my dog with any sitter, however, I’m very glad I left my dog with Akie! She took such good care of my frenchie. Akie was wonderful with my frenchie and really made me feel at ease knowing my frenchie was safe and in good hands. Akie had a great home and very accommodating to dogs.”
“Veronica was a gem to work with. She was very sweet and gentle with my dog. She communicated quickly and clearly and I had no issues whatsoever with her. I would definitely recommend her.”
“Adriana is the best pet sitter I have ever known. She spoils my dog, gives him treats, and bathes him before I pick him up. I would highly recommend Adriana for any of your pet care needs.”
About: I’ve had pets of all kinds ever since I was a kid. I grew up around livestock and showed pigs through 4-H. I’ve never had a dog-less household, and I strongly believe every dog is a lap dog. I would love to get to know and spoil each and every one of your pups, while keeping you updated every step of the process. Although I only have one review on my profile, I have been taking care of friends’ and family’s pets for years. I guarantee a 5 star experience for you and your pets. I am currently self-employed, so I am extremely flexible when it comes to my schedule. Just let me know what you need, and we can make it happen! I have a fenced in yard, with two of my own indoor/outdoor dogs. There are also 2 indoor/outdoor cats, so no dogs that could put them in danger.
