“Ali is a warm and caring dog sitter. I felt so much ease with her here when we were out of town. My dog ate his food which he doesn't like to eat when we're gone. I appreciated the photos and notes. We'll definitely use Ali again. 🐕🐶🥰”
“Leslie was sent from heaven! Seriously…I needed a last minute sitter for my two Senior small dogs after my daughter’s health prevented her from taking them. Leslie was everything you would want when turning the responsibilities of your babies to someone else. She is prompt, organized and responsible. My dogs are not easy…one wanders the house with dementia and doesn’t go for walks so she needs cleaning up after throughout the day. The other wants Constant attention and can’t usually sleep thru the night without having to go out and pee. My husband and I were totally able to enjoy our trip to the British isles for 17 days without worrying about the “ children”.”

We would definitely hire her again.”

My commitment to being a pet sitter in Ventura, California, is reflected in my punctuality, respect for your property, and extensive experience. As a psychotherapist I offer peace of mind, comfort, and a level of trustworthiness that will allow you to relax while you're away. I look forward to the opportunity to provide top-notch service for you and your pets. I have an all electric van that means I’m pretty well self contained. I’m local so please keep me in mind for the future as well. I have some flexibility to tailor my schedule to meet the unique needs of your pets. I'm here to ensure your furry companions receive the attention, care, and love they deserve. At times, I may need to be away for up to 5 hours so let me know if this is not a good fit for you. I recognize the importance of preserving the environment that your pet is accustomed to. I maintain safety in the familiarity of their own home, minimizing stress and promoting a sense of security. I understand the importance of a tidy and well-organized living space for both pets and homeowners. I can ensure that your home remains secure, and I am attentive to any additional instructions you may have regarding the care of your pets or any specific routines they follow.
About: My pet care experience started at young age when I decided to foster bottle fed kittens. As I grew up my love for animals continued to grow. Once I was 16 I started to pet sit for family friends. This included horses, goats, cats, and dogs. At 18 I raised and trained a puppy for Guide Dogs America.I continued to pet sit throughout college where I received an Equine Science Degree. This not only taught me an immense knowledge about horses, it also taught me about livestock and other pets. At 21 I became a dog groomer and CPR pet certified. Becoming a dog groomer has taught me special skills like caring for senior dogs and animal behavior. I work as a dog groomer locally in Ventura Monday-Friday. My schedule allows me to put time blocks in for potty breaks, walks, or stop ins. On the weekends I am available 24/7.With my flexible schedule you will not have to worry about your dog being left alone! My number one priority is keeping your dogs safe and happy. I provide care in the home which will keep your pet comfortable and safe. I can accommodate special needs for your pets per owner request!
“Hudson did an amazing job taking care of my sweet 12 year old beagle who sometimes can a little bit sassy. I was able to enjoy my trip without worrying & was thankful for the updates & pictures..”

Natalie was wonderful! She took great care of my senior girl. Natalie took her to the vet when she developed an eye infection and kept me updated on her condition. I felt confident that my little girl was in good hands and I did not need to worry about her while I was gone.
River was absolutely fantastic!! This time she stayed two nights with our two cats and our 3 year old dog. Our pup has had some trust issues with people and River really took the time to get to know him and build that trust with him before staying. She has earned all of our trust and did an amazing job with all of our fur babies. She’s very communicative and sends tons of pictures while she’s here. We felt so comfortable and very happy with how things well went during her stay. We will definitely be rebooking with River, and love that we can count on her so confidently!!
Kathlene took amazing care of my fur babies and my home while I was away! She sent daily photo updates, watered my plants, and went above and beyond to make sure everything was in great shape. She’s very knowledgeable about animals and knew my babies would be in good hands. A true 5-star sitter—coming from a fellow sitter myself!
We had Nancy take care of our house, dog, fish, leopard gecko and plants while we were away for a week. When we came back, the house was cleaner than we left it and all pets and plants were well-fed and happy. We really appreciated her daily updates, and that she took our dog out more than we get the chance to.
Elijah was amazing! I often go on business trips and my guy, Monroe, is 14 and has special needs due to health issues. Elijah was great with Monroe, walking every day, administering meds, special food requirements and taking care of the house and updating me twice a day through texts and photos. I recommend him highly and the next time I go out of town on business I will be reaching out to him again.
