“We had a great experience! Renee watched our two dogs over the weekend and took such good care of them. She was very patient with them and made sure they felt comfortable. She also kept in touch and always replied when I messaged, which gave me peace of mind while we were away. I really appreciated the updates and the fact that Renee even took them on a walk. I would definitely trust her to watch our dogs again and highly recommend her!”
“We love Barbara! She has taken care of our dog 3 times and we can’t imagine using anyone else. She is so caring and loving and treats our dog like her own. She keeps us updated daily. We highly recommend Barbara!”
“Karla Michelle went above and beyond for our puppy Brody! She sent videos and pictures everyday and was always extremely responsive. It was so nice to know Brody was taken care of while we were on vacation. We will be booking Karla Michelle for future stays. Thank you so much!”
“Jennifer was great with my girl Frankie!! I was so scared to leave her because it was my first time leaving her with anyone besides family. I know Frankie was well taken care of, I enjoyed all the pictures I would get of her!!”
“Nalani is a great pet sitter. My cats were well taken care of, and I received updates throughout their stay. I returned from my trip to find them happy, healthy, and reluctant to leave. Would recommend Nalani to anyone in need of boarding a pet!”
“We left our 10 your old Australian Shepherd for the first time with a Rover. Shanna made us feel as ease about leaving him in her care. She was quick to respond to messages and kept me updated on how he was doing. She was very accommodating when we decide to leave a day early and had to return a day late. I’m so happy to have a place where I know my dog will be well taken care of while I am out of town. Thank you!”
“First time user and I was nervous how our dog would do. She is a rescue and still learning how to be social with other dogs. Julie and family made sure she was comfortable and introduced her slowly. Julie was great responding when I checked in. Our dog came home exhausted so I take that as a good sign she was playing hard. It is hard to wear her out. We are very thankful to find a pet sitter that gives us peace of mind. We will be using them again!”
“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 great!! She was very flexible with our questions and requests. She sent daily pictures and videos so we would know how our baby was doing. She gave him exercise and love. I would absolutely book her again!!”
“Kimber had an amazing time. She didn't want to leave, she had lots of fun playing with friends. Breanna was great! She made Kimber feel comfortable and that made us feel at ease. We will definitely be back.”
“Anna was awesome.! When it was time to go home Napoleon didn’t want to go home and wanted to follow Anna back into her home. I’m sure Anna treated Napoleon as her own during his stay. Anna; texted me pictures and updates throughout his stay. Will definitely be coming back.”
“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.”
“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.”
“Misty Blue (my GSP) had so much fun. It was a last minute request and Veronica immediately responded. I was very thankful and I am a happy client. I will be using her services in the future if I ever need a sitter. She periodically sent me updates on Misty which eased my mind.”
“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”
“Akie took such good care of my buddy! She sent me messages and pictures so I knew he was doing great and having fun. He came home happy and tired. I will definitely use her again!”
“Stephanie is an amazing dog sitter! She’s very flexible with your schedule and she sends updates on your pup! Diesel definitely had lots of fun with her and her pup! :) Will definitely be using her again in the future!”

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.
“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.”

Today, I bring that same passion to dogs. I founded Dingo's Wild Side because I believe most dogs need more than a walk around the block. They need opportunities to run, sniff, explore, problem solve, and experience the world the way dogs were designed to. Every adventure is built around safety, enrichment, and fun. Whether your dog joins a small pack hike or enjoys a one-on-one solo adventure, my goal is simple: Send them home tired, fulfilled, and smiling. What Makes Me Different Small Pack Sizes I intentionally keep groups small so every dog receives personal attention. Real Outdoor Adventures These aren't neighborhood walks. Dogs explore ranches, trails, river corridors, parks, and natural areas throughout Kern County. Adventure With Purpose Every outing provides: Physical exercise Mental stimulation Confidence building Socialization Environmental enrichment Safety First Every adventure is carefully planned around weather, terrain, group dynamics, and each dog's individual needs. My Experience Hundreds of dog adventures completed Professional outdoor guide background Experienced with large and high-energy breeds Comfortable with multi-dog management Experienced with reactive and shy dogs Strong understanding of canine behavior and body language When your dog joins me for an adventure, you can expect: Safe transportation Careful pack management Plenty of exercise Fresh air and exploration Photo updates Clear communication Most importantly, your dog will have an experience that goes beyond a typical walk. My Promise I treat every dog like an individual. Some dogs need miles of hiking. Some need confidence. Some simply need a chance to get outside and be a dog. My job is to figure out what your dog needs and help them thrive. Caring for dogs isn't something I do on weekends—it's my full-time career. I've built my life around helping dogs stay active, engaged, and happy through safe, enriching outdoor adventures. I love dogs, and I take the responsibility of caring for them seriously. Welcome to a full acre of dog heaven. Plenty of room to run, plenty of friends to play with, and endless attention from someone who truly loves dogs. Dingo's Wild Side was built with your dog's happiness, safety, and enrichment in mind. From the moment they arrive until the moment they head home, they'll be treated like a valued member of our extended family. With years of experience working with dogs of all sizes and personalities, I make it my mission to provide more than just supervision. Your dog will enjoy exercise, socialization, mental stimulation, and real outdoor adventure. Grooming services can even be arranged during their stay, making pickup easy and convenient. Every dog deserves excitement, challenge, and the opportunity to simply be a dog—and that's exactly what they'll find here.
About: I’ve been the family baby/dog sitter since I was 13! My whole family have always had pets and relied on me to take care of them! I’ve also taken care of my neighbors dog for several years enthusiastically. I’ve always found dogs to be the closest comfort, which is a reason to trust me. I’d take care of your dog like my own, as I hold them mine very close to my heart. I have a part time job working with kids, so I’m very available to book! I’m fully available four days of the week and I always have time to spend with your fur friends before and after work. In my home, I occasionally use a crate for my german shepherd, most of the time he is loose. He’s gotten accustomed to sleeping on my bed or my parent’s bedroom and we feed him early in the morning. Following his morning meal is a long walk. We make sure he’s well groomed with daily brushing and a wash once a week. Levi has allergies so we make sure to always apply topical remedies and purchase a high quality kind of dog food.
About: While you are at work, away on a business trip, or vacationing, I am more than happy to care for your pets.

My name is Ana. I am deaf and I am fluent in American Sign Language (ASL).

I will treat your pets as my own and greatly understand the importance of your pets' needs. With me, your pets are in gentle, caring, and experienced hands! My experience administering medication: I am very comfortable in administering medications due to my many experiences, such as using an inhaler, giving pills (by mouth, in food, pocket pills, etc.), administering cream in the ears or on the body, eye/ear drops, etc. Note: I do not have experience at this time with administering injections, however, I am willing to learn if you teach me!

“We had a great experience! Renee watched our two dogs over the weekend and took such good care of them. She was very patient with them and made sure they felt comfortable. She also kept in touch and always replied when I messaged, which gave me peace of mind while we were away. I really appreciated the updates and the fact that Renee even took them on a walk. I would definitely trust her to watch our dogs again and highly recommend her!”
“We love Barbara! She has taken care of our dog 3 times and we can’t imagine using anyone else. She is so caring and loving and treats our dog like her own. She keeps us updated daily. We highly recommend Barbara!”
“Karla Michelle went above and beyond for our puppy Brody! She sent videos and pictures everyday and was always extremely responsive. It was so nice to know Brody was taken care of while we were on vacation. We will be booking Karla Michelle for future stays. Thank you so much!”
“Nalani is a great pet sitter. My cats were well taken care of, and I received updates throughout their stay. I returned from my trip to find them happy, healthy, and reluctant to leave. Would recommend Nalani to anyone in need of boarding a pet!”
“We left our 10 your old Australian Shepherd for the first time with a Rover. Shanna made us feel as ease about leaving him in her care. She was quick to respond to messages and kept me updated on how he was doing. She was very accommodating when we decide to leave a day early and had to return a day late. I’m so happy to have a place where I know my dog will be well taken care of while I am out of town. Thank you!”
“First time user and I was nervous how our dog would do. She is a rescue and still learning how to be social with other dogs. Julie and family made sure she was comfortable and introduced her slowly. Julie was great responding when I checked in. Our dog came home exhausted so I take that as a good sign she was playing hard. It is hard to wear her out. We are very thankful to find a pet sitter that gives us peace of mind. We will be using them again!”
“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 great!! She was very flexible with our questions and requests. She sent daily pictures and videos so we would know how our baby was doing. She gave him exercise and love. I would absolutely book her again!!”
“Kimber had an amazing time. She didn't want to leave, she had lots of fun playing with friends. Breanna was great! She made Kimber feel comfortable and that made us feel at ease. We will definitely be back.”
“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.”
“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.”
“Misty Blue (my GSP) had so much fun. It was a last minute request and Veronica immediately responded. I was very thankful and I am a happy client. I will be using her services in the future if I ever need a sitter. She periodically sent me updates on Misty which eased my mind.”
“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”
“Akie took such good care of my buddy! She sent me messages and pictures so I knew he was doing great and having fun. He came home happy and tired. I will definitely use her again!”

“Amazing service and very flexible. Will update you everyday on how your dog is doing and is such a quick responder. I appreciate her service and will continue to rebook her when needed. She deserves more than 5 stars”
“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!!”
