“Kyle and Sara took such good care of our boy!! We received daily updates and pictures of his activities while we were gone. We are so thankful we have someone to leave him with when we travel that treats him so well!”
“Monique is such a warm and friendly person. My dog was at ease immediately and that helped me feel calmer too I am so grateful I found someone who loves animals the way I do My future stays will be stress free because of her Thank you SO MUCH ☺️ 💖”
“Stephanie was absolutely amazing while babysitting my dog, Cooper, during my time away. She went above and beyond to give me constant updates, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear that she treated Cooper just as I would at home—he looked so happy, comfortable, and well cared for in every update. I am eternally grateful for her kindness, attentiveness, and dedication. I would wholeheartedly recommend Stephanie to anyone looking for top-notch pet care!”
“Krystal provided outstanding care and attention for our 2 dogs (Thelma & Louise). She ensured Louise took her medication and sent us photos of their walks. Krystal not only took care of our pets; she also put us at ease knowing they were well cared for. I highly recommend her service.”
“Danielle was amazing - we couldn’t recommend her more highly. She cared for our high-needs dog so well and went above and beyond. She never once seemed bothered by our dog’s needs around medications. She cleaned her eye goop and washed the blankets before we picked up our dog. Danielle even let our dog sleep in her bed - I’m sure our dog misses her! Danielle was communicative and reliable. We will definitely use her again in the future.”
“Marin was so wonderful with Atlas! He fit in so well at her house and it was such a comfort and relief to know he was so well cared for while I was out of town. Would not hesitate to book with her again!!”
“Karrie was so loving and accommodating to my nervous pup. I loved receiving pictures and updates. Daily visits to the park were wonderful for my pup to try out socializing. Thanks so much Karrie!”
About: I’ve grown up with animals my whole life, I also plan to attend college to become a veterinary technician, so I hope you will trust me with your fur-baby!

About: Hi my name is Colleen! I have been around and loved animals my whole life. I offer full-time care and live on Vandenberg SFB. For the past three years, I managed a veterinary practice. Because of this background, I am very familiar with the diverse medical and behavioral needs of dogs, cats, and horses. I am a huge dog and cat lover - at home, I have a German Shepherd and a Goldendoodle who get daily walks and lots of cuddles. Because I work from home full-time, any animal in my care will receive constant attention and supervision. I am also a very active person, so you can count on your pets getting plenty of playtime and exercise. My home is completely child-free, and visiting pets are absolutely allowed on the furniture to make them feel right at home. Additionally, I live on the military base, making it easy and convenient for me to accommodate both on-base and off-base families. Whether your pet needs high-energy play or have specialized medical needs, they will be safe, active, and loved here! Animal care is a central part of my life! I work a flexible remote schedule that allows me to be fully available for full-time care. My weekends are available and open, meaning I can dedicate plenty of quality time, structured play, and consistent attention to boarding or housesitting your pets, no matter the day of the week 🐾❤️ With a professional background in veterinary medicine and animal handling, safety is always my top priority ❤️ My home features a fully fenced yard where your dog can safely play. I’m highly experienced in reading animal behavior, maintaining clean and secure environments, administering medications if needed, and keeping a watchful eye to ensure your pet is happy and relaxed.
“Lauren and her family were absolutely wonderful with Cooper! They were so friendly and sweet with my boy, followed all of his care instructions, and made sure he got plenty of walks, playtime, and attention. I could tell from how happy and relaxed Cooper was that he had a great time. I’m so grateful to have found such a kind and caring family to look after him. I would absolutely rebook them!”
“Robert was great. He took care of our pups as one of his own, which was reassuring for us. Sent photos, was flexible with our schedule and was super proactive. Thanks for watching our dogs!”
About: Hello, Jen here 👋 a life long lover of all animals, passionate about providing spaces and enriching experiences that make every day your pet’s best day ever! Whether they’re rambunctious, reserved, or have a little hitch in their get-along you can rest assured that I’ll meet your fur baby exactly where they’re at. ———————————————————————————————————— The Home: Located in the heart of AG near trails and open space, our house features a fully fenced backyard, a full-sun balcony for the sunbathers/lovers and plenty of additional spots on our half acre property for on-leash sniffing. ✅ Pet-safe environment ✅ Never alone ✅ Well versed in senior care requirements and administrating meds *** Disclaimer: I do not work from home, but my partner does *** The Home Team: 👭 Julie: My partner, a fellow animal lover with a knack for establishing trust with even the most timid of pups. 🐶 Sutter: Our sweet natured, well-mannered 13 year old vizsla. 🐱 Ursa: Our equally as sweet, but less well mannered 2 year old cat. ———————————————————————————————————— Have a skill you want worked on while you’re away? Say no more. While not certified (yet), I have over a decade of experience in the specialized training fields of rally obedience, nose work, and agility; I’m happy to provide board and train services. ———————————————————————————————————— BOARDING REQUIREMENTS: Because we have a resident cat and a senior dog, all guests must be cat-friendly, non-aggressive, and comfortable sharing space with other animals. We require a meet-and-greet prior to booking. Please note that we cannot accommodate puppies, aggressive dogs, or pets that become aggressive during medication administration. To ensure every guest receives personalized attention, I have a maximum of two dogs at a time (from the same family only). Boarding / Daycare: There will be someone (my spouse, me, or both of us) with your dog the majority of the time, day and night. If we are both out running errands, we are often back within a few hours and usually within an hour, but if there are any special needs for your pup, let me know and I can be sure to let you know if we can accommodate, such as having someone with your pup at all times. Our schedules are very flexible, so feel free to ask based on your preferences. While I work during the day from an office, my spouse works from home and therefore is available to keep your pup company, let them go out to the bathroom, and if needed, is available for short play times. We will take your dog on daily walks and/or outdoor playtime and just let us know your dog's regular routine and we can try best to accommodate. In addition to play time, we will give your dog time to rest and they will get plenty of affection. Depending on the dog, we can also head out for a trail walk or a trip to a fenced dog park for a good run/play. You can expect photo and video updates daily (frequency based on your preference) so you can see how your pup is doing. Dog Walking: I'll pick up your dog and take them on a walk tailored to their energy and needs — neighborhood walks, hiking trails, or a fenced park for off-leash time if that's the right fit. Drop-In Visits: I'll stop by your home to visit with your pet(s), play with them, let dogs out to the bathroom, give them food and water and spend quality time with them. I can also care for other pets in the home, such as reptiles, fish, or plant, depending on what's required, an additional pet charge may apply. I have a fenced yard for potty breaks or sniffing the fresh air or enjoying the sunshine and a larger, unfenced area that I can take your pup(s) on short, leashed jaunts to sniff around. I can crate your dog, if ever needed.
“Maddison was AMAZING! Our three dogs had the best time and were so well taken care of! We got constant updates and pictures! Her family is now our family! Don’t hesitate, feel completely comfortable leaving your fur babies with her!”

“My cats love Maria so much !! I get such sweet photos of them sent to us while we are gone. It is such a wonderful feeling to know they are in loving hands while we are gone”
“Alison was wonderful and patient with my doggies. She offered to come meet us before the weekend to get to know the dogs and their needs. I was able to show her how to administer meds and meals. On the days of booking, Alison followed all instructions and my pups were relaxed and happy when I retuned at the end of each day. It can be very hard to find help as a single person in a new town with senior dogs! Alison was wondeful and I would definitely book her again. I highly recommend.”

“Erin is wonderful! She took care of our little Cat fur babies when we were away, making sure that they were well fed, clean and loved. One of the cats is a bit more reserved, but when he first met Erin, he instantly bonded with her. Erin was punctual everyday, quick to provide us with updates and even sent us pictures of the babies. She even went the extra mile to wheel our trash bin in after collection day! How sweet! Thank you Erin for being so great and loving our babies, and hope that you would be available next time when we take another short trip.”
“Jeanette did a great job with my two cats, even though they are both scarred cats and wouldn’t come out to greet her! They were fed and happy when we returned home. She texted me each day and fed one outdoor cat as well. She also cleaned up cat food bowls and the litter box. A+”

About: Feline body language was a special interest of mine, something that I studied for fun! What I've learned makes me ideal for watching your cat, as I can help make what can be a stressful introduction for your kitty much easier. Even the most skiddish of cats have taken a liking to me, between this and my hands on experience I'm your ideal cat sitter.
“Gloria has been absolutely amazing with my puppy Rocket! During our busy work weeks, she would pop in to get him out of his kennel, make sure he was well cared for, and always cleaned up after him. She even took the time to teach him little tricks, which was such a sweet bonus and showed how much she genuinely cares and brought him toys she thought he would like. I completely trust her with my dog, and that peace of mind means everything to me. I plan to keep booking with her in the future and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for reliable, caring, and attentive pet care”
“Skylar was extremely responsive and great to work with. My cat had some issues with her litter box while I was away, and Skylar came in on her day off to fix the problem and clean up the mess. I was so appreciative of her willingness to be flexible. Highly recommend booking with Skylar.”
“Sue loved Joselynn! She was super sweet to him and kept me up to date on her visits with him. She even gave us a complimentary visit just because she was in the area. Would definitely book her again!”

“This was our second day, and I was so happy to see how comfortable my dog became. She has separation anxiety, but today she wagged her tail and walked in calmly, which felt like a huge step forward. I really appreciate the patient, reassuring environment—it made a big difference for her sense of safety. Thank you for taking such good care of her.”
“Danielle was great with my dog Brody! Brody has anxiety and gets worried about new situations so he was anxious but no need to worry, I picked up a very happy dog! Danielle was very caring with Brody and gave him time to settle in. Thankyou so much!”
“Incredible service and care for our dog. Stephanie is amazing with dogs, and spent her time with Otis training him and having our dogs run around outside to get his energy out. She was so kind and responsive, we’ll continue to use her whenever we can.”
“Kyle and Sara’s house is our dog’s home away from home! They are attentive, caring, and excellent at providing the best care and communicative updates. Cannot recommend them enough!”
“Gloria’s home was the perfect fit for my dog to spend his day. He had treats, walks, and other pups to play with. She was such a great communicator. From sending pics to asking clarifying questions about his needs - I just knew she cared about him as if he were her own. At the end of the day, that’s what you’re looking for!”
About: I've cared for pets of all sizes and personalities, from my own 3 pound Yorkie to 100 pound German Shepherds, as well as cats! I know every pet is unique, so I take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, young, or older, I'll provide reliable, attentive care and treat them like they're part of my own family. Pet care fits perfectly into my routine because I'm currently attending college online, which means I'm home most of the day and have a very flexible schedule. I'm available on both weekdays and weekends! Since I'm home, your pet will get plenty of attention, care, and companionship rather than being left alone for long periods. I live in an apartment, but we have a fenced dog area where pets can safely get outside time and enjoy some play. I also take dogs on daily walks to help them stay active and happy. I have a friendly dog of my own who loves having a companion around, but I always make sure to respect each pet’s individual personality and comfort level. Whether caring for pets in my home or yours, I focus on keeping their routine as normal as possible :)
“Thanks to Rover, I have found a fantastic sitter for my dog. Suzette has watched ‘Pepper’ for me, numerous times. I appreciate her timely responses, flexibility with scheduling and most importantly...I know that Pepper is well taken care of!”
“Cary did a great job looking after Brody! We enjoyed the meet and greet and walk with Frank. Cary listened to me about Brody’s needs and his anxiety. Brody spent all day at Cary’s home and when I collected Brody he was a calm and happy dog. Thanks so much!”
About: I provide a safe, loving, and comfortable home where dogs are treated like family. As a dog owner myself, I understand that every dog has a unique personality, routine, and needs. My goal is to make your pet feel as relaxed and at home as possible while you're away. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, belly rubs, or simply relaxing in a cozy spot, I'll tailor their care to what makes them happiest. I enjoy spending time outdoors, so active dogs will have opportunities for exercise, while more laid-back pups can enjoy a calm and peaceful environment. I carefully follow each owner's instructions regarding feeding schedules, medications, exercise, sleeping arrangements, and daily routines so your dog experiences as little disruption as possible. You'll receive regular photo and video updates so you can enjoy your time away knowing your furry family member is happy, safe, and receiving plenty of love and attention. I treat every dog as if they were my own and strive to create a positive experience that makes both pets and their owners feel comfortable coming back again. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs. I work a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, feeding, and plenty of one-on-one attention throughout the day. My own dog is an important part of our family, so caring for pets is already part of my everyday life. Whether your dog enjoys being active or prefers a calm environment, I'll make sure they receive the care, exercise, and companionship they need while staying as close as possible to their normal routine. I only accept the number of pets I can comfortably care for so that each one receives the attention, love, and supervision they deserve. If your little guy stay over he will have access to all my own has access to which is ALL AREAS of the home. We have a sunroom that has a doggie door as well which they can come in and out, i have a fence backyard. At night time they would sleep indoors or in the sunroom with the doggie door closed for the night.
About: I grew up with all kinds of different animals. I know how to care for almost every type of pet. I personally own a Newfoundland, a Saint Bernard, a Border Collie, a cat, and a variety of other reptiles and small pets. I am a dog trainer and full time animal lover, I am Home Majority of the time so I am able to give your baby the love and attention he or she needs. I have a yard with a 6+ foot fence around it to make sure your pets are secure and safe when outside. Every Pet that stays with me will be fed, played with, loved, and even groomed if necessary or Requested. During their time with me, your pets will become part of my family, and you will receive constant updates.
About: Hello Families! I love all animals and ready to help care for yours while you're away! I grew up on a farm with my parents, and ever since I can remember, we've always had animals around. They ran a non-profit animal rescue for many years, and this taught me much about the responsibilities of caring for an animal. I was also able to learn about different breeds and their temperaments. Although they are nice to play with, we were also taught that with the pleasurable part, also comes the dirty work. I've cleaned much animal poop in my life! My sister and I have ridden horses since we were young, we've volunteered at different animal shelters, and we have brought injured animals into our home to take care of them. I recently graduated and received my Bachelor's degree. I'm continuing my education, which makes me available to go to your home during weekday evenings or weekends (all day). I also offer boarding at my home (24/7), which is safe and secure. I have several yards for your pet(s) to play and exercise. I can feed, administer medication if needed, exercise, clean litter-boxes, and give your pet(s) the love and attention they deserve! I understand your pet(s) have become part of your family, and I will take care of them as if they were my own! If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask! I hope to hear from you soon! Thank you, Mia
About: My name is Debbie. I live in a house with a fenced backyard with lots of grass. Your dog will be well cared for and treated like part of the family! I grew up on a ranch and have cared for many different animals over the years. I’ve had dogs my whole life. I have experience with blind and deaf dogs as well. I have one dog that is 5 years old. He is fun and loving. He is a medium size dog who would love a playmate on the weekends! I often take my dog to the dog park or to the beach for walks and play. Your best friend would be safe and have lots of love here. If you’d like more information just ask. I am available weekends and some afternoons/evenings. I offer doggy day care or overnight care as well. Let me know what your pets needs are. I have a fenced grassy back yard with shade. Pets are also allowed in my house. If your pet sleeps in a crate I can do that or if they sleep on the couch or a bed I can do that as well. I am flexible with their needs.
“Robert was the perfect host. He was so responsive and sent us photos and videos of our little girl throughout the day. He was such a pleasure to work with. Sweet Pea was very happy too. We definitely recommend him!”
“Ashley was great with our Calvin! She offered to pick him up each night and drop him off and he got to play with her fur babies on their nice property. She was very easy to communicate with and answered quickly. He definitely enjoyed his time there.”
“Thank you for taking excellent care of Winnie while I attended a wedding! She clearly enjoyed her time with you and your son. I love that you prioritized her comfort on a very hot day, let her hang out on your bed, and accepted my absurd amount of dog supplies that I handed you at drop-off. I appreciate that after it became clear your dog was a bit much for her (un-neutered and a little too boy-ish), you kept them separate. Would re-book if I came back to the area and needed help in the future!”

About: I have grown up with dogs and have dog sat for neighbors since middle school! I have taken care of many dogs with different dietary needs and have been able to make sure that each dog got their right medications and food. I always love be able to give dogs attention and hang out with them whether that's through going on walks, playing in the house, or just hanging out! I am currently working part-time so my schedule is pretty open and flexible! I am typically available weekends and weekdays, just depends on the hours but I do not have a set schedule. No matter the schedule I am willing to manage pet care at all hours of the day! I can easily crate your dog if needed and make sure I follow the pet's itinerary / diet thoroughly! While dog walking I stay observant of my surroundings to make sure your dog has a fun and safe walk!
About: I’ve taken care of every animal that i’ve ever met! I grew up with 7 dogs and 6 cats! All of our family friends trusted me to stay and watch their loved ones when they couldn’t take them on vacation with them. I was on bathing and feeding duty but really just listened to what the animal wants whether it’s all the pets in the world, a lap to sit on, a friend to play with, or to silently judge from the other side of the room either way both of us are enjoying each others company. I’m currently a part time college student! My schedule is very flexible, late hours, nights, weekends, holidays i’m available to meet your needs and your cats. My two girls Annie and Daisy both sleep on top of me every night. They have running water fountains a litter robot in the room they go in when supervised and a regular robot for unsupervised time. My cats have daily routines built. For example they know what rooms to be in and when! They also have access to their catio at peak sun time!
“Thank you so much for taking care of Remmy. I loved receiving the pictures while at work. I would definitely recommend Erin to walk your dog and will definitely be using her in the future.”

About: I foster dogs from a nearby shelter and post them on social media to find them. Families tend to focus on the “hopeless” ones. Just to show how lovable they really are and how anybody would be in a bad mood if they had to live in a cold cage. I guarantee your pets will have a blast! Unless they just like laying around all day, then we could do that too. I have school until one, but after that i’m free to hang out with your furry friend! So feel free to drop them off anytime. I like to give treats a lot so if you don’t want your pal gain a couple of pounds, that's about the only thing you have to worry about happening to your pup! At my house, dogs are always going up and down on the couches. It’s really no problem at all and I’ve got a pretty decent sized backyard with a high fence to keep them from running off and lots of parks just a light walk away!
About: I've had the gift of house/pet sitting for over 10 years, and it is without a doubt the most rewarding job I've ever experienced! Personally, I've had dogs, cats, hamsters, fish, horses, and hermit crabs as pets, besides the odd rescued baby bird, bunny, or mouse. On top of cats, dogs, and fish, I've had the opportunity to care for alpacas, an African grey parrot, and saltwater fish/reefs, while pet sitting. Every animal I encounter has its own identity and temperament, which is always fun and interesting to observe and base my care on. I feel like such a winner when I get a standoffish animal to trust me! Throughout my life I've had an array of animals to bond with, though for a long period recently we had just one cat. Mournfully, a few years ago, my dad and I had to part with our beloved Stevie. She was our close companion for over 15 years, and I still miss her immensely. Her quirks and routines still cross my mind, which brings all the things that made her unique and lovable up into my heart. Pet sitting warms my heart, and definitely fills the need that I still have for animal companionship (but without the heartbreak). Pet sitting is a way for me to have the joy of loving and caring for a pet in an empathetic way: in their own home, on their own schedule, stepping into their owner's (figurative) shoes for a bit, to make *everyone* more comfortable. Time and again, it's proven to be the best way I've found to give personalized care to precious pets, and allow owners to truly enjoy their time away. My part-time library job offers me a lot of flexibility, leaving me the opportunity to do more of what I love. Traveling, exploring new areas, experiencing new food, going to music events, working out/walking, spiritual activities, and creative endeavors have a place in my life because of this balance. Of course that also includes one of the most rewarding ways to punctuate my life: house and pet sitting! I base my care around the individual needs of the pet and owner! Pets LOVE their routines, so I typically live in harmony with their modus operandi, on balance with my part-time engagements.
About: I will provide your pets with companionship, while keeping them active. I have 3 cats and a dog of my own, so I have experience with dog walking, and administering oral medication.

I will take your dogs on enough walks so that they're comfortable, and I will be attentive with your cats so that they're entertained, and so on. If you are looking for someone who is dedicated to the wellbeing of animals, then look no further. I am fully committed to providing your pet with safety, companionship, entertainment, etc.
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and have always watched dogs for all my friends and family! I love having dogs around as it’s never a dull moment in the house! I currently work remote so I am always home and and ready to care for your fur babies! I currently work remote so I am home all day. My work schedule is 8am-5:30pm and I exercise by walking the riverbed by my house so it’s perfect for me and the pups! I have a fenced yard and a twelve year old beagle mix who loves to meet new friends! When I dog sit for friends or family, I set up a spot for them in my room and my pup in a separate room so they can have their space. I’m not a huge fan of leaving pups in the garage (unless requested) so they will always have a spot with me I their own bed!

About: I just love animals! Especially dogs and cats. They’re so fun to just hang out and take care of. I’ve been dog sitting at friend’s houses for years now. Whatever specifics you want for your animals, I’ll take care of! I am currently just living in Santa Maria. I work a good amount, but love animals. Just do this for fun! I love meeting new animals and pet sitting. If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out! When I am taking care of your pets, I will follow your specific rules for the animals and make sure they don’t harm themselves or others.
About: I’ve cared for my own dogs and cats for over 30 years and have also fostered kittens for the animal shelter that I later adopted. I am a substitute teacher during the regular school year and am otherwise a DoorDash driver. I would work my schedule around what you need. My cats stay indoors and my 2 dogs love hanging out on our front enclosed porch or lounging inside. They all get along quite well.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all kinds from my personal dogs to animal shelter dogs for about 6 years. At the animal shelter I volunteered for both Orcutt and Santa Maria and I was there for about 2 years. I now work at the Santa Barbara Humane where I handle several different temperaments of animals and about to hit my 2 years working there. I’m currently working 4 10’s where i get 3 days of to enjoy the day with your babies. On the days that i do work i’m able to do drop ins during my lunch and after work at around 6. For the meantime im only doing in your home services due to my living situation but hopefully when i get my own place i can secure that your pets will be safe with me.

Thank you for taking the time to read my profile. Good luck with finding the right person for your fur baby. Feel free to read my reviews :) I'm currently not working so I would have plenty of time to play with your baby. I only work Monday-Friday from 8am-5pm. Weekends are considered. If your dog needs to be inside there kennel I will assure that they are by the end of my shift. Safety, and trust always comes first.
About: Hello Families! I love all animals and ready to help care for yours while you're away! I grew up on a farm with my parents, and ever since I can remember, we've always had animals around. They ran a non-profit animal rescue for many years, and this taught me much about the responsibilities of caring for an animal. I was also able to learn about different breeds and their temperaments. Although they are nice to play with, we were also taught that with the pleasurable part, also comes the dirty work. I've cleaned much animal poop in my life! My sister and I have ridden horses since we were young, we've volunteered at different animal shelters, and we have brought injured animals into our home to take care of them. I recently graduated and received my Bachelor's degree. I'm continuing my education, which makes me available to go to your home during weekday evenings or weekends (all day). I also offer boarding at my home (24/7), which is safe and secure. I have several yards for your pet(s) to play and exercise. I can feed, administer medication if needed, exercise, clean litter-boxes, and give your pet(s) the love and attention they deserve! I understand your pet(s) have become part of your family, and I will take care of them as if they were my own! If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask! I hope to hear from you soon! Thank you, Mia
About: Growing up on a ranch, I always loved animals and helped care for many. From fluffy mammals to slithery reptiles and even some amphibious friends, I've always had animals in my life. I'm no stranger to big dogs either, and right now, my world revolves around my sweet senior toy poodle, Marshmallow. Basically, if it has paws, scales, or fins, I've probably hung out with it, and I can't wait to hang out with your pet too! My extensive hands-on experience has given me a deep understanding of animal behavior and needs, ensuring your beloved pet receives the best possible care. I’m currently working part time as an ABA Behavioral Therapist, so I’m quite open to a variety of times and dates that will fit best for your schedule! When I care for your pets in your home, I make sure they stick to their usual routine as much as possible. This means feeding them on schedule, giving them their meds if needed, and making sure they get plenty of potty breaks and exercise. I'll play with them, offer lots of cuddles, and send you regular updates and photos so you can see how happy and comfortable they are. I treat your home with respect and leave it just as I found it, making sure your furry friends feel safe and loved while you're away.

About: Hi my name is Colleen! I have been around and loved animals my whole life. I offer full-time care and live on Vandenberg SFB. For the past three years, I managed a veterinary practice. Because of this background, I am very familiar with the diverse medical and behavioral needs of dogs, cats, and horses. I am a huge dog and cat lover - at home, I have a German Shepherd and a Goldendoodle who get daily walks and lots of cuddles. Because I work from home full-time, any animal in my care will receive constant attention and supervision. I am also a very active person, so you can count on your pets getting plenty of playtime and exercise. My home is completely child-free, and visiting pets are absolutely allowed on the furniture to make them feel right at home. Additionally, I live on the military base, making it easy and convenient for me to accommodate both on-base and off-base families. Whether your pet needs high-energy play or have specialized medical needs, they will be safe, active, and loved here! Animal care is a central part of my life! I work a flexible remote schedule that allows me to be fully available for full-time care. My weekends are available and open, meaning I can dedicate plenty of quality time, structured play, and consistent attention to boarding or housesitting your pets, no matter the day of the week 🐾❤️ With a professional background in veterinary medicine and animal handling, safety is always my top priority ❤️ My home features a fully fenced yard where your dog can safely play. I’m highly experienced in reading animal behavior, maintaining clean and secure environments, administering medications if needed, and keeping a watchful eye to ensure your pet is happy and relaxed.
“Lauren and her family were absolutely wonderful with Cooper! They were so friendly and sweet with my boy, followed all of his care instructions, and made sure he got plenty of walks, playtime, and attention. I could tell from how happy and relaxed Cooper was that he had a great time. I’m so grateful to have found such a kind and caring family to look after him. I would absolutely rebook them!”
“Robert was great. He took care of our pups as one of his own, which was reassuring for us. Sent photos, was flexible with our schedule and was super proactive. Thanks for watching our dogs!”
About: Hello, Jen here 👋 a life long lover of all animals, passionate about providing spaces and enriching experiences that make every day your pet’s best day ever! Whether they’re rambunctious, reserved, or have a little hitch in their get-along you can rest assured that I’ll meet your fur baby exactly where they’re at. ———————————————————————————————————— The Home: Located in the heart of AG near trails and open space, our house features a fully fenced backyard, a full-sun balcony for the sunbathers/lovers and plenty of additional spots on our half acre property for on-leash sniffing. ✅ Pet-safe environment ✅ Never alone ✅ Well versed in senior care requirements and administrating meds *** Disclaimer: I do not work from home, but my partner does *** The Home Team: 👭 Julie: My partner, a fellow animal lover with a knack for establishing trust with even the most timid of pups. 🐶 Sutter: Our sweet natured, well-mannered 13 year old vizsla. 🐱 Ursa: Our equally as sweet, but less well mannered 2 year old cat. ———————————————————————————————————— Have a skill you want worked on while you’re away? Say no more. While not certified (yet), I have over a decade of experience in the specialized training fields of rally obedience, nose work, and agility; I’m happy to provide board and train services. ———————————————————————————————————— BOARDING REQUIREMENTS: Because we have a resident cat and a senior dog, all guests must be cat-friendly, non-aggressive, and comfortable sharing space with other animals. We require a meet-and-greet prior to booking. Please note that we cannot accommodate puppies, aggressive dogs, or pets that become aggressive during medication administration. To ensure every guest receives personalized attention, I have a maximum of two dogs at a time (from the same family only). Boarding / Daycare: There will be someone (my spouse, me, or both of us) with your dog the majority of the time, day and night. If we are both out running errands, we are often back within a few hours and usually within an hour, but if there are any special needs for your pup, let me know and I can be sure to let you know if we can accommodate, such as having someone with your pup at all times. Our schedules are very flexible, so feel free to ask based on your preferences. While I work during the day from an office, my spouse works from home and therefore is available to keep your pup company, let them go out to the bathroom, and if needed, is available for short play times. We will take your dog on daily walks and/or outdoor playtime and just let us know your dog's regular routine and we can try best to accommodate. In addition to play time, we will give your dog time to rest and they will get plenty of affection. Depending on the dog, we can also head out for a trail walk or a trip to a fenced dog park for a good run/play. You can expect photo and video updates daily (frequency based on your preference) so you can see how your pup is doing. Dog Walking: I'll pick up your dog and take them on a walk tailored to their energy and needs — neighborhood walks, hiking trails, or a fenced park for off-leash time if that's the right fit. Drop-In Visits: I'll stop by your home to visit with your pet(s), play with them, let dogs out to the bathroom, give them food and water and spend quality time with them. I can also care for other pets in the home, such as reptiles, fish, or plant, depending on what's required, an additional pet charge may apply. I have a fenced yard for potty breaks or sniffing the fresh air or enjoying the sunshine and a larger, unfenced area that I can take your pup(s) on short, leashed jaunts to sniff around. I can crate your dog, if ever needed.
