She also provides updates of your dog’s behavior and assimilation to the new temporary space, which is so helpful. We will absolutely be requesting Amanda in the future ☺️”
“5 stars! Luis is exceptional! I actually was worried that Coco wouldn't want to leave with us after the 2days we left her there. Communication was excellent, everything was just perfect. Thanks a lot”
“We had a wonderful experience with Teresa while we were away for 3 nights. Communication was excellent throughout our trip, and it was clear that our fur baby was well cared for and loved.

Thank you for taking such great care of Hatchie—we would definitely recommend Teresa and look forward to using her services again! 🐾💕”

Huge thanks again to Lauren & Justin for your care of our lil puppy!”

“From the initial meet and greet, my Belgian Malinois 1 1/2 year old puppy took to Trudie and her husband, (also a trainer). Anyone that know Mals, know they are extremely active and energetic. I was worried if she would be too much work. They spent time getting to know Raven so that when I left her 2 days later, she was at ease at her "vacation"home. The back yard is fenced in well, outdoor kennels, and play space. Trudie has excellent communication, photos, and updates and fair prices! They said Raven was sweet, so that tells me she was comfortable with them. I will definitely book again, and the drop off and pick up were seamless. These are dog lovers, and Raven got to meet their dog on the intro visit. THANK YOU!!!☆☆☆☆☆”
“This was my first time using a doggy sitter service for my Doxie baby! I don’t know who was more nervous- me or Honey, but I couldn’t have asked for a better person to watch my baby. She kept me updated regularly, even though I didn’t even have to ask. She asked questions., but most of all she just loved her! She took her everywhere. She even got her toy when apparently my dog grabbed it out of her hand at the store. 😂 ( I gave her permission to take her wherever she went because she loves car rides! ❤️) ; the pictures showed just how happy my baby was in her home. If you need someone to watch your pup, I highly recommend her!”
“Amanda is wonderful. This is our second booking with her. She makes our dog feel right at home. She is very accommodating and she frequently updates you on how the dogs are doing. She is the best. Definitely recommend.”
“Raphael and her husband welcomed my little Bailey into their home and treated him like their own. I was nervous dropping him off but I was provided with pictures and updates that made me feel at ease with leaving him there. They were very accommodating, I would recommend booking.”

“"I recently had the pleasure of working with Sara, and I couldn't be more satisfied with the experience. From the very first meeting, it was clear that she truly cares about dogs and their well-being. Sara took the time to get to know my dogs, Zoey & Buster, and made sure to understand their routine, preferences, and any special needs. Sara did two drop in visits each day & besides providing loving care for my dogs, she watered my plants, brought mail in, and made sure the house was ok. I received regular updates and adorable photos that put my mind at ease. It was evident that Sara provided my senior dogs the human touch they need which left my dogs happy and content when I returned home. I highly recommend Sara to anyone in need of a reliable and caring dog sitter. Her passion for animals and attentive care made all the difference for me and my two senior dogs.

“Kasey did a great job watching my two cats on very short notice over the holidays! She was very good about sending me pictures and updates from her drop-in visits. I had never been away from my cats for this long before, but I was very comfortable knowing that Kasey was taking care of them. I know she made sure to give my cats some extra attention and love during her check-ins, and both cats warmed up to her very fast.

About: Hi there! My name is Lauren. Some helpful things to know about me is that I have 5+ years experience in animal care. I've worked at animal shelters and as a manager at a pet daycare/boarding facility, I also have done pet sitting and dog walking on my own in the past. I've recently moved to the area and want to continue working with animals. I am responsible, reliable and will treat your pets as if they were my own. I love to send lots of updates and pictures so you know your pets are well taken care of. I have just recently moved to Alvarado and left my job at Operation Kindness Humane Society because the commute would of been too long. So my schedule is very open as of right now while I look for another job. I have a large yard, however it is not fully fenced. If you'd like for your pup to come to my house I would walk them to go potty. I also have 2 dogs that are dog friendly so if your pup likes to play they will get along great. My dogs are fully vaccinated and up to date all all shots and preventions. For your baby to stay with me I would need to see vaccination records, just to make sure everyone is safe and healthy. If you'd prefer me to pet sit at your home I am more than happy to do that as well and stay consistent with the daily routine you have with your animals. This is usually my preferred way, as it is less stressful for your animals to be in a familiar environment.

About: I have hands-on experience caring for multiple dogs of different breeds and personalities, including my four dogs at home — two dachshunds, a yorkie, and a schnauzer. Over the years, I’ve been responsible for many aspects of their daily care, from feeding and walking to bathing, grooming, and administering medication when needed. Caring for several dogs at once has taught me patience, responsibility, and how to recognize each dog’s unique needs and behavior. I genuinely love animals and enjoy making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I also have experience helping family and friends with pet sitting, which has helped me become confident handling dogs in different environments and routines.

At home, I help take care of my four dogs and my cat by feeding them, walking them, bathing them, cleaning up after them, administering medication when needed, and making sure they always feel loved and comfortable. Having multiple pets has taught me how to manage different personalities, energy levels, and routines while still giving each pet the individual attention they deserve. I also have experience caring for other people’s pets in their homes through pet sitting for family and friends. I understand how important it is to keep pets comfortable in their own environment and to follow their normal routines as closely as possible. Whether it’s feeding schedules, playtime, walks, medication, or simply giving them company and affection, I make sure every pet feels safe, cared for, and happy while their owners are away

It also depends if I’m staying at the house or just making stops in between the days. I have a fenced yard with a patio that is separate from the grass area. I have a doggy door so they can go in and out if they know how to use one. If not they learn while I have them in my care. My fur babies love playing with other dogs.

About: I love animals in all shapes and sizes! At my previous job I was in charge of caring for more than 25 dogs at a time, so I am well versed in both dog enrichment and if necessary redirection. I am a cat and dog owner myself so I understand that you want the best for you animals and I’m am excited to give it to them! I am currently a college student in my sophomore year. Pet sitting is a great way for me to make money with my flexible schedule/hours. I am one hundred percent committed to providing your pet with the highest quality of care. My goal is always to create an environment where your pet can feel at ease and secure.
“Mackenzie was amazing. She took such good care of Zeus while checking on him while I was at work. She communicated effectively and took lots of photos each time. We will definitely book with her again!!”
About: I have extensive experience caring for the animals of family and friends. With a great deal of patience, I can help even the shyest animals feel comfortable and secure. Over time, I build strong, trusting relationships with the animals I care for, ensuring they feel loved and well-taken care of. I'm a mom of one teenager who is an animal lover as well I'm always up at 6 am to see my daughter off to school on the bus and my husband to work I'm a stay-at-home mom I keep the house clean and other stuff around the house but I mostly love spending time with our 2 dogs and one cat When watching your loved one in my home I want your pets to feel at home and comfortable I want my house to be your pet's vacation away from Home my house is a big animal lover so your pets will get love and care with my family.
About: Dogs, cats, goats, rabbits, pigs, cattle, horses, lizards, axolotls- you name it, I've cared for it! A former 4H & FFA member, I've cared for my own animals as well as livestock at other ranches. I have experience administering medicine, and have cared for animals who were diabetic, blind, deaf, or had other special needs. I am a teacher on summer break. I drop off and pick up my child at daycare each day, but other than that my days are pretty flexible. I make it a priority to ensure your pet feels comfortable, safe, and cared for in their own familiar environment. I follow your instructions closely and make sure to give them plenty of attention, playtime, and affection (if they want it!), so they feel loved and not alone while you're away. Each visit is tailored to your pet’s needs, whether they enjoy a quick game of fetch, a short walk around the yard, or simply some calm companionship. I always keep an eye on their behavior and well-being, and I provide updates and photos so you can feel confident they’re in good hands.

“Hubs and I travel full-time for work, so we have to find new dog care when we move around the country. So glad we found Rochelle and Tater for a week when I went for a getaway. We got lots of updates, pics and video. Grateful for Rochelle's great care. We'll definitely be back if we take another long weekend while we're in the area. 🤩”

“Vimonluck was excellent. He sent a lot of pictures and updates. We having been struggling to get Zeus to walk on the leash without doing a military crawl he walked all the way to car last night on the leash without crawling so thank you. I would definitely recommend him and will definitely rebook.”
“If you had a 10 rating we would give it! Richard and Stephanie took exceptional care of our dogs. They had great communication with us throughout our trip. I can’t say enough great things”
“I really appreciated the videos of the boys playing. It was nice to be able to see them when I was gone to visit family for Thanksgiving. If I’m in the area I would definitely use Sheila again. I recommend her wholeheartedly”
“Pepper had such a wonderful time at Patrick’s. He really treated her as if she were his own. We loved all the photos and videos sent of her stay there. They really take care to ensure all the dogs are safe and happy.”
“Amanda was an absolute joy to have take care of my sister’s dog for the weekend! She is so responsive, kind, patient, and makes sure to send regular photo updates so you have peace of mind. She also provides updates of your dog’s behavior and assimilation to the new temporary space, which is so helpful. We will absolutely be requesting Amanda in the future ☺️”
“5 stars! Luis is exceptional! I actually was worried that Coco wouldn't want to leave with us after the 2days we left her there. Communication was excellent, everything was just perfect. Thanks a lot”
“Lauren & Justin were beyond AMAZING!!! Charlotte did not want to leave! Lauren was in contact contact sending updates & photos of our pup while we were away on vacation! They even agreed to meet prior to her stay, so that when we dropped her off she felt safe and at home? We hope to get to use their services again...but know there is a good chance our girl will try to stay home with them for forever? Huge thanks again to Lauren & Justin for your care of our lil puppy!”
“I would highly recommend Anthony. From the beginning he was very responsive and thorough. He was flexible working around my schedule and did a great job with my dogs. 5 stars all around.”
“From the initial meet and greet, my Belgian Malinois 1 1/2 year old puppy took to Trudie and her husband, (also a trainer). Anyone that know Mals, know they are extremely active and energetic. I was worried if she would be too much work. They spent time getting to know Raven so that when I left her 2 days later, she was at ease at her "vacation"home. The back yard is fenced in well, outdoor kennels, and play space. Trudie has excellent communication, photos, and updates and fair prices! They said Raven was sweet, so that tells me she was comfortable with them. I will definitely book again, and the drop off and pick up were seamless. These are dog lovers, and Raven got to meet their dog on the intro visit. THANK YOU!!!☆☆☆☆☆”
“This was my first time using a doggy sitter service for my Doxie baby! I don’t know who was more nervous- me or Honey, but I couldn’t have asked for a better person to watch my baby. She kept me updated regularly, even though I didn’t even have to ask. She asked questions., but most of all she just loved her! She took her everywhere. She even got her toy when apparently my dog grabbed it out of her hand at the store. 😂 ( I gave her permission to take her wherever she went because she loves car rides! ❤️) ; the pictures showed just how happy my baby was in her home. If you need someone to watch your pup, I highly recommend her!”
“Amanda is wonderful. This is our second booking with her. She makes our dog feel right at home. She is very accommodating and she frequently updates you on how the dogs are doing. She is the best. Definitely recommend.”
“Diana was amazing, she was very willing to meet with me beforehand and followed all of my instructions to a T. She sent me regular updates with images, and took great care of my baby. Will definitely rebook with her if ever needed again.”
“We had an absolutely wonderful experience with Alexia! From the moment we met her, it was clear that she genuinely loves and cares for dogs. She was thoughtful, attentive, and treated our dog, Cosmo, like he was part of her own family. Knowing Cosmo was in such loving hands gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. Alexia kept us updated, made sure he was well cared for, and went above and beyond to ensure he was happy and comfortable. We wholeheartedly recommend Alexia to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate dog sitter. We look forward to supporting her business again in the future—and we’re already excited to get Cosmo together with her sweet pup, George, for a playdate soon! Thank you, Alexia, for taking such wonderful care of our boy!”
“If you want your dog well taken care of and loved, then leave them with Blair! We went on vacation for 9days and never was concerned about Tigger! This was out first trip without him, but now we can go on more vacations without the stress of worrying about our dog! Thank you Blair♥️”
“Jill and her family were wonderful for our babies first stay. I felt very at ease and as if she treated them as her own. My little dogs definitely enjoyed their freedom and exploring time. We will be coming back!”
