What a life saver as we were in a bind. Our pup had a great time and was well exercised even made a new puppy friend! Would definitely use her services again!”
“Maribel was so good with my Gidget girl. Maribel sent me photos and updates every day. It really set me at ease knowing she was being so well taken care of.

“Dominie took good care of our baby boy. She sent updates with pictures throughout his stay. We had peace of mind knowing he was in goods hands 😊 we will be hiring Dominie again!!”
“Barbara was very nice and took really good care of my dog, Butter. My dog has anxiety around bigger dogs, so for us, this was a perfect match. Even with her two smaller dogs, Barbara paid extra attention and had lots of caution in making sure that my dog felt comfortable being in her home and around her dogs. After our initial meet and greet, my dog didn’t even wait for me to say goodbye— He was so excited to be there that he ran inside when I dropped him off! As someone who gets anxiety from leaving their senior, special needs dog in anyone else’s hands, I will not hesitate to book Barbara again! Thank you so much Barbara!”
“This was first time leaving my dog. I was a little nervous since we were in town for my husbands work so I was not familiar with the area, people or just leaving him. 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.”

Shanna has communicated with me while Kai is with her and has provided me with updates with pictures. I highly recommend Shanna for your pet care needs.”
“Karla Michelle took wonderful care of my dog Rhonda! My dog is anxious around new people but she was safe and cared for when she stayed with Karla.

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 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.

“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.”
“I would 100% recommend Maria because she takes care of our dog and she takes good care of her and she is very affectionate with the dogs and always kept us informed about our dog.”

About: I’ve volunteered at the shelters for several years. I participated in their cruising canines program that had me take a shelter pup out weekly for a few hours to burn energy. This includes going for walks, swimming, going to get a puppacino or just cruising in the car and wind surfing! I’ve taken all dog sizes and am physically fit enough to take on larger dogs. I’ve had animals of my own since I was 7 years old. This included ducks, pigs, dogs, cats and geese! I currently have 3 dogs of my own. I love any chance to meet new animals! I live a very active lifestyle and fitness is a huge part of my daily routine. I have 4 dogs of my own and understand how a pet is more than just a pet, they are a family member! I work from home as a seamstress, which allows for my schedule to be very flexible. Last minute bookings to planned bookings work for me! All of my dogs are inside dogs. They are treated with the same care as humans, if not more. Comfort is top priority for my animals and I understand every pet will require something different. No 2 animals are the same and volunteering at the shelter has helped me learn that quickly! I feel I am very good at a reading the situation and would never do anything to make an animal feel uncomfortable.

I also completed my externship at Kern County Animal Services, where I gained experience in managing a clean environment and administrating medication. I worked at a luxury pet resort, which involved professional bathing techniques, ear cleaning, and skin health checks, so I have a keen eye for your pet’s physical well-being. Whether your pet needs specialized medical monitoring, senior care, or whole lot of playtime, I have the knowledge to ensure they are safe, happy, and pampered while you're away! I have open availability and can dedicate my time to caring for your pets. Monday-Friday, I am available for morning, afternoon, evening, and overnight stays as needed. I can provide walks, drop-in visits, feeding, companionship, and general pet care. On weekends, I am available for walks and drop in visits throughout the day. I treat your home and your pet with the utmost respect and care. Using my Veterinary Assistant training, I perform 'nose-to-tail' wellness checks during every visit to monitor for any changes in health or behavior. I stick strictly to your established feeding and medication schedules to maintain your pet's routine. Safety is my priority! I ensure all doors/gates are double checked and that your pet is never left in a hazardous situation.
About: Animals of all types, shapes and sizes hold A very special place in my heart and always have. I grew up with cats and dogs- my parents bred shar pei dogs and Portuguese water dogs. I've always had cats and dogs. As far as care, I have references upon request. I just moved here with my dogs and significant other from Arizona and want to continue caring for animals while you're away or at work, etc. I treat my dogs like royalty and you can expect the same treatment with your furry babies. I am active and would love to walk, cuddle, feed or whatever you need. My services include drop ins and walking. I have another part time job and am very flexible with availability and time. I look forward to meeting you and your animals! I have a side vending machine business and it's very part time. I'm on the road a lot anyway so drop bys, walks, cuddles anytime is not a problem at all. I am very available and flexible with regard to my schedule. I am very mindful of ensuring the utmost safety of your pet. Im the pro at " dog proofing " and making sure nothing is on the countertops when I leave. I check gates to make sure they're closed before letting out. I understand dog and cat body language and know when they want to be left alone or want to play, rest, eat, whatever the case may be. I assure you! Your animals are in great hands. When walking, I loop the leash around my wrist, I am one step ahead to ensure there isn't danger ahead. If your dog is more aggressive on leash, I take appropriate caution to ensure no altercations could occur. I'm also strong. I can handle big dogs on walks and ones that bark at other dogs/ people and can handle pulling. I can also do some training while on leash on walks.

About: I have a long experience in pet care, particularly with dogs, as I’ve been a dog owner myself for several years. Having a dog of my own has given me a deep understanding of their needs, behaviors, and personalities, and my dog has a big one. I’ve also fostered dogs for a couple of years, which has provided me with hands-on experience caring for dogs with many different behaviors and backgrounds! Owning a dog is definitely a full time job. However I have help from my roommate which allows me to care for my dog as well as helping care for others! If you entrust me with your pet in your own home, I will be sure to follow directions as needed. Whether it’s keeping your pet in a cage or taking them outside I will be sure to guarantee their safety under my watch.
About: I am a college student who is also a barista and a full time dog lover. I used to have two of my own dogs, but sadly they have passed Not only have I taken care of my own dogs, but neighbor's dogs and I have accompanied my mom to drop in visits for dogs. Whether big or small, I can handle the size of your dog. As a working college student my availability always changes, but feel free to reach out and I’m happy to work something out. I can multitask and do whatever you need me to do in regards of your dog/cat including grooming and belly rubs. My schedule for work is all over the place and my schedule for school is adaptable as I’m an online student. On days that I work I can check in on your dog before and after I go in. For walks I’m available after my shifts or before I am closing. House sitting if you allow me I can leave from your place to my job. I no longer have pets, but whenever I am with friends their pets get my full attention. I always pet them or play catch inside and out, depending on the house.

I’m a very active person, walking and running whenever I get the chance. I’m used to having a household full of animals so I’d love to meet all your pets! I am a full time student but I have no classes Friday-Sunday. I am available early mornings and evenings most days for check-ins or walks! I live next door to a park where the animals can play while also being near the SU campus for great walks! Although I live with 3 girls, my apartment is spacious and they all love animals.

She updated me everyday and that gave me a sense of security. I will 100% book with her again. I can now travel again knowing my dogs will be in good caring hands. :)”

“I’ve never had my dogs literally excited once they realized they were being dropped off at a dog sitter before. This is my second time using Sara and when I was standing at her front door to drop them off, my elderly dog was scratching at the door to be let in! Both dogs immediately acted like she was family. Highly recommend”
“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.”
“Apryl was very accomodating and super quick to respond to our reservation. Less than 10 minutes she said it was okay to drop our pup off at 5:00 am the next morning! What a life saver as we were in a bind. Our pup had a great time and was well exercised even made a new puppy friend! Would definitely use her services again!”
“Jill & Liz were wonderful! They sent us pictures and updates everyday to let us know how our pup was doing. He seemed like he had a blast. Very pleased with their service!”
“Angelita was great! She took great care of our English bulldog Taz. Even though he is a high maintenance dog, she still took the time to do his daily wrinkle cleansing and we really appreciate that. She was very accommodating to a last minute extension of our trip. We are thankful for the care of our fur baby.”
“Akie is absolutely fantastic! I had my dog boarded with her for 9 days and she was sending me updates with pictures and videos everyday with my dog! She really does care for them and makes sure they get enough exercise outside, treats, and love. I would recommend her to anyone with their dogs! Thanks again!”
“I was a little uneasy leaving our 3month puppy just because we never left shadow anywhere before. But Shyla was great and sent photos and video of shadow playing and just being free! I love he got to have a big backyard yard to roam and play with her other dogs. He didn't want to leave! 😆 Will definitely rebook, and will be dropping shadow off from time to time just for day care. Book this lovely family for your fur-babies!!”
