“Ana is the best! I'm forever grateful for her. She took care of my 16 yr. old baby for a week. Ana and her family treated her like their own!!! She sent me pictures & updated me. I truly knew my baby was the best care possible!!”
“Absolutely Fantastic. Amanda takes excellent care of your pooch and ensures they are well cared for, walked and played with. I highly recommend her for your boarding needs.”
“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.”
“This is our second time booking with Maribel. She gave us daily updates and sent us tons of photos. Our dogs love her and she took great care of them. I think I found my permanent dog sitter. 11/10 would recommend!”
“I left my 5 year old maltipoo for a 4 night stay with Clairece and I cannot say enough about her, from her *Terrific, prompt communications, to her *Friendly, kind approach, to her *Excellent, detailed check-ins throughout the day, which she initiated; complete with pictures and updates with several bery happy looking walks and even couch time. I especially appreciated *How much Clairece cared and loved on my pup! It was 4th of July weekend, so I anticipated my pup to be nervous. Chauncey can already be a bit fidgity and clingy to his person. No problems though! He obviously fell for Clairece😍, as every photo showed a big grin across his face and that told the whole story! Also, when Chauncey wasnt really eating his food because of separation from me, Clairece quickly pivoted to giving him fresh food with my approval. I could not have been happier with this whole experience. Will 100% use Clairece's services again! Im sure Chauncey cant wait to go back!”
“Anna and her family are SO SWEET! My dogs immediately felt at home, even as I was still standing there. They got lots of snuggles and they even got to sleep on one of Anna's daughter's beds! When I picked up my pups, they looked just like I would want: Happy to see me, but also like they barely noticed I was gone because they had fun.”
“Stephanie and her family greeted me and my pups with a warm and authentic welcome. They live in a terrific neighborhood on a cul de sac with no through traffic. There home and backyard was spacious enough for our energetic GSP’s and they had fun playing with their family dogs. We were updated with great photos of our dogs playing and resting by Stephanie. You can’t ask for a better set up with a fenced in pool for security.”
“Melissa was absolutely great with our Ariel. Ariel had the best time. Melissa sent pictures and updates. Ariel was happy while being there. Definitely will be using Melissa again”
“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!”
About: I've taken care of dogs for family, friends, and neighbors for 4 years now. I have some experience grooming others' dogs, however mostly my own. They still loved the way their buddy came out and continue to come to me! I enjoy doing this job so I decided to make it more public. Hope I can help many other people and their babies even more! I'm currently working part-time, so my schedule is open and flexible. I don't like to leave pets alone for too long, so for no more than 4 hours. Whether it's just to give them a potty break or to give them the attention they deserve. I have a fenced yard and live in a community with a dog park. How I take care of your babies is up to you. I understand every dog is different and so if their owner! So just let me know what you do for them and I will integrate it into their daily schedule. During the summer, the dogs will be kept inside an air conditioned home. Preferably when no one is home then they will be in a crate, however if they are guaranteed not to chew on personal items or pee inside, then they can roam inside freely. During winter, dogs can be kept outside, but it really depends on the owner's preferences.
About: I’m a proud toy poodle mom of two, so caring for small dogs is part of my everyday life. Dogs are very special to me, especially as a deaf person—I rely on body language and visual awareness, which makes me extremely observant and attentive to a dog’s needs, behavior, and safety. What sets me apart is my patience, calm energy, and strong understanding of how dogs communicate without words. I’m especially comfortable with small breeds, shy dogs, and dogs who need gentle care. I work alongside my mom in her home childcare business, which is located right next to my house. Because of this, I am home most of the day and nearby at all times. My schedule is very flexible, and I’m able to provide frequent potty breaks, feeding, playtime, and supervision. Pets in my care are rarely left alone for long periods. They become part of our calm, structured daily routine and receive lots of attention and care throughout the day. Safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a calm, clean, and supervised home environment. I closely monitor body language and behavior to ensure every dog feels safe and relaxed. I follow feeding schedules, give regular potty breaks, and keep pet parents updated with messages and photos. Your pet will be treated with love and care, just like my own two toy poodles.

“I cannot say enough good things about Kharlee. She took such good care of Chloe and even helped me out of a bit of a jam the next day. Leaving a pet is such a stressful experience for both the pet and the parent, but Kharlee really put us both at ease. She even sent photos throughout the day showing Chloe enjoying her temporary accommodations. I happily recommend Kharlee and would definitely request to book her if I am in the Bakersfield area again.”

“Five stars for Alicia! She was wonderful with my cat! I contacted her last minute and she was quick to answer. I was able to go on my trip without worrying as she was constantly keeping me updated with messages/pictures. I am thankful to Alicia as she was patient, kind and sweet to my cat (he gets nervous when a new person comes around) but she was able to get him to be comfortable around her. As well, Alicia kept my apartment safe and tidy while being away on my trip. I will definitely reach out to her next time I need to leave my fur baby at home.”

About: I have taken care of senior dogs who require medicine doses and health monitoring. I have also cared for very young puppies and kittens who have needed to be bottle fed. I foster kittens a lot and it truly is so rewarding to see them grow healthy and enjoy life. I have had pets at my home and I have house sat and kept an eye on pets. I just graduated high school May 2026 so I have a lot of free time. I wake up early in the morning and just do tasks around the house. I am home full time right now. I have siblings but more importantly one 9 year old brother who is gentle with animals and understands how they should be treated. I have a lot of free time on my hands and i am very flexible so any routine a pet already has at your home can also be matched with me. I also am able to drive. Our backyard is fenced and we do not have any permanent pets in the home right now. We do sometimes have foster pups or kittens which are kept in a bedroom that has a code lock on it so they can be nursed to good health in peace.
About: Wherever I go, animals seem to love me! I know there are a lot of dog-lovers on here, but probably not a lot of experienced “other” pet caregivers.

I have a fenced yard and one medium-sized doggo who is very friendly with people, children, and small dogs. I will be training her to be more accepting of dogs that are her size or larger, as she needs some new playmates!

About: Hi my friends call me Mindy, and I have been caring for dogs since I was a kid. I grew-up with German Shepherds as members of our family, and I've taken care of dogs for friends and family for many years. I love all kinds of dogs from miniatures to Mastiff's, I've handled them all. I'm comfortable with high energy dogs, and dogs that may need extra patience and care. I am well versed in handling special diets, administering oral medications and administering shots if needed. I am experienced with puppies to senior dogs, those with anxiety, and other sensitive behaviors. I love to play with them with toys or mental interaction, or sit with them, or whatever activity they enjoy. I would love to take pictures and/or video and send them to you, and I can coordinate face time with you so you can see your baby/ies and say hello to them whenever you want. You can check out the pictures in my gallery of dogs I've cared for, and the pictures I've sent to their parents! I create a loving, caring and attentive environment where they will thrive and quite possibly not miss you while you're gone at all! I live by the rule: If I see a dog, I am legally required to say "hello" (in the universal voice used by many pet lovers), and briefly introduce myself. I am retired after a career in broadcast journalism & social media marketing. My availability is WIDE OPEN for any day of the week for all services I offer. I have recently moved back to Bakersfield from Bend, OR and I look forward to continuing to offer my services here. **I can keep your pets on schedule with their meals, medication, walks, play time and potty breaks. Whatever they may need while you're gone, I can take care of for you in your absence. When caring for dogs, I am committed to creating an environment of safety, cleanliness, and an enjoyable environment based on their specific needs. I absolutely make sure all opportunities of escape are thwarted, ensuring their safety at all times. When I take them for walks, I make sure all harnesses and collars are worn appropriately, and they remain on leash at all times to ensure safety and control. I am attentive during play time to make sure they stay hydrated and take breaks when needed. I am always aware of unsafe opportunities such as plants and objects that could potentially hurt your dog. I am always prepared with basic first aid, and will have emergency contacts with me at all times. It's my goal, that the time I spend with your dog(s); will be happy, healthy and safe while you're away for 1 hour, 8 hours, or several days. Your dog(s) become an extended member of my pack!

“Absolutely Fantastic. Amanda takes excellent care of your pooch and ensures they are well cared for, walked and played with. I highly recommend her for your boarding needs.”
“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.”
“I left my 5 year old maltipoo for a 4 night stay with Clairece and I cannot say enough about her, from her *Terrific, prompt communications, to her *Friendly, kind approach, to her *Excellent, detailed check-ins throughout the day, which she initiated; complete with pictures and updates with several bery happy looking walks and even couch time. I especially appreciated *How much Clairece cared and loved on my pup! It was 4th of July weekend, so I anticipated my pup to be nervous. Chauncey can already be a bit fidgity and clingy to his person. No problems though! He obviously fell for Clairece😍, as every photo showed a big grin across his face and that told the whole story! Also, when Chauncey wasnt really eating his food because of separation from me, Clairece quickly pivoted to giving him fresh food with my approval. I could not have been happier with this whole experience. Will 100% use Clairece's services again! Im sure Chauncey cant wait to go back!”
“Stephanie and her family greeted me and my pups with a warm and authentic welcome. They live in a terrific neighborhood on a cul de sac with no through traffic. There home and backyard was spacious enough for our energetic GSP’s and they had fun playing with their family dogs. We were updated with great photos of our dogs playing and resting by Stephanie. You can’t ask for a better set up with a fenced in pool for security.”
“Melissa was absolutely great with our Ariel. Ariel had the best time. Melissa sent pictures and updates. Ariel was happy while being there. Definitely will be using Melissa again”
“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!”
About: I’m a proud toy poodle mom of two, so caring for small dogs is part of my everyday life. Dogs are very special to me, especially as a deaf person—I rely on body language and visual awareness, which makes me extremely observant and attentive to a dog’s needs, behavior, and safety. What sets me apart is my patience, calm energy, and strong understanding of how dogs communicate without words. I’m especially comfortable with small breeds, shy dogs, and dogs who need gentle care. I work alongside my mom in her home childcare business, which is located right next to my house. Because of this, I am home most of the day and nearby at all times. My schedule is very flexible, and I’m able to provide frequent potty breaks, feeding, playtime, and supervision. Pets in my care are rarely left alone for long periods. They become part of our calm, structured daily routine and receive lots of attention and care throughout the day. Safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a calm, clean, and supervised home environment. I closely monitor body language and behavior to ensure every dog feels safe and relaxed. I follow feeding schedules, give regular potty breaks, and keep pet parents updated with messages and photos. Your pet will be treated with love and care, just like my own two toy poodles.
“I cannot say enough good things about Kharlee. She took such good care of Chloe and even helped me out of a bit of a jam the next day. Leaving a pet is such a stressful experience for both the pet and the parent, but Kharlee really put us both at ease. She even sent photos throughout the day showing Chloe enjoying her temporary accommodations. I happily recommend Kharlee and would definitely request to book her if I am in the Bakersfield area again.”
“Priscilla watched our very active German Shepherd puppy and did an excellent job. Communication was great. She responded quickly to any messages sent. We would definitely use her again!”
“Adriana was incredible with my senior dog! I'm completely obsessed with him & she made me feel at ease while I was on vacation. She did an amazing job sending me pictures & updates on him. I would 100 percent use her again as well as highly recommend her to friends & family. Thank you Adriana!!!!”

He was very responsive, always replied quickly, and sent me updates and pictures whenever I asked. It was clear Buddy was well cared for and had a great time. I'm especially glad he got along so well with the kiddos. They seemed to really enjoy having him around, and Buddy enjoyed being with them too. I would definitely book with him again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter!”
“Im so happy I chose Whitney to take care of my Neo . She did a great job taking care of him and giving him his medication. She made me feel really comfortable knowing that he was in good hands. I will definitely book her again.”
