House Sitting Ventura

“Julio and Leanna were absolutely amazing to our fur-babies! They are a blessing to depend on caring for not only our pets, but for our dwelling! They work as a team and that couldn’t make us happier since we do the same. They communicate effectively and efficiently, daily updates and photos which caused us to be at ease! ❤️🙌❤️🙌”

“Jennifer was very calm and patient with my anxious dog. She listened to my concerns and was happy to follow my directions. She sent me updates with pictures so I didn’t worry. She was respectful of my home. I’m hoping Scoot will develop a relationship with Jennifer and she can be his regular sitter!”

“Ralphie had a great time hanging out with Madelina while we went away for the weekend. She gave us plenty of updates which put my mind at ease. Our home was nice and tidy when we came back. We will definitely be using her again in the future!”

About: I was born into a family with Saint Bernards, and over my lifetime have owned seven Saints plus an English Mastiff, a pittie mix, a cat, birds, fish, rodents, reptiles, and horses. I've been described by friends and family as a dog whisperer, and I can't help but make friends with any dog I see. I've been dogsitting for friends and family on the side for years now, doing overnight visits, extended stays, and drop-ins for potty, walks, and meals. I love cats and dogs of all sizes, but I've always had a soft spot for the giant breeds. I was a cross country runner and still live an active lifestyle, so long walks and runs are no problem. I can also do transportation to vet visits, doggy day care or walks at dog parks, etc. I'm looking forward to taking care of your furry family members! I am widely available for scheduling. I have a few steady clients with regular visits, but I can work with you and figure out the best schedule! As a lifelong animal owner, I understand the needs of many animals, as well as the feelings that owners have towards their furry friends. My initial clients were friends, but through the established trust and word of mouth recommendations, that list has grown. When doing overnight or extended stays, I will always bring in the mail, take out the trash, and perform any other household duties you may need. I've cared for sick dogs, handled emergency situations, and taken care of urine and other medical samples for my clients. Whatever you need, I can accommodate.

“Jeniffer is a truly wonderful person and a gifted animal caregiver. We were so fortunate to have her watch out doggy for a long day we both needed to be out of town. Our pup completely fell in love with her. Happy to give Jeniffer our highest possible recommendation!”

About: I’ve been taking care of animals my entire life. I have a lot of experience with big dogs & I have a pitbull. I know very well how to handle dogs who pull or can be aggressive on walks. I fostered for 3 years with SBCAS & have cared for elderly dogs, dogs with severe injuries, and other serious medical issues. I’ve also taken care of plenty of other animals including cats, rodents, & reptiles. I am trained to handle & administer medical care for cats & dogs by the Ojai Humane Society I work evenings & weekends so I’m free all day to take care of your animals while you’re at the office or out of town. Happy to take your dog on a long walk or hike. I have a high energy dog so I’m used to doing a lot of playing & running if that’s something your dog requires.

“Neyda was great. We couldn’t be happier with the level of care she provided to our puppies and our home. My trip was so stress free with her updates, pictures, and videos. She is super respectful and caring. I hope my puppies will be able to hang with Neyda in the future!”

“Lily is very kind, responsive and continuously keep us up to date with pictures! We are grateful to have Lily's help!”

“Ashley was incredible with our little Wallace. She was super communicative and sent sweet little videos of our boy every day. On top of excellent dog-sitting care, Ashley went above and beyond our expectations and tidied up our house so we could come back to a clean home after being away for so long. We already have rebooked Ashley for our next trip, and we are so grateful we found her!”

Madeline F.

“Kevin was a great dog and house sitter for us! Conscientious, punctual and very responsive. It is nice to not worry about your home and pets while you are away - we will not hesitate to use him again.”

Sueanne C.

“Lacey watched our dog at our house while we were gone for a long weekend and was excellent. Our dog had a great time and we felt great knowing that Lacey was taking great care of her, taking her on long walks and giving her lots of love. Lacey is great with dogs and has a calm presence that helps keep our dog mellow. This is our second time having Lacey dog sit and we’ll definitely do it again!”

About: I’ve volunteered with animals since I was 10, starting with rabbits at the Ventura County Animal Shelter. Since then I have gone on to own rabbits and a variety of other pets including dogs. My favorite type of dogs are basset hounds! But I’m a lover of all pets. I currently am unemployed, so have very open availability! I am willing to care of pets or take dogs for walks etc at your convenience! I have a variety of safety measures put in place at my house to separate my rabbits from dog when unsupervised. Additionally I am adept with animals with different dietary needs!

About: Taking care of dogs has always been a big part of my life since I was young. I grew up with both dogs and cats, but mostly dogs. As a dog owner myself, I understand how important it is to provide patience, love, and reliable care. I try to treat every dog as if they were my own because that’s how I’d want mine to be treated. My family and I find comfort in taking in pets that have had a rough start because they deserve to feel cared for as well. This has allowed me to be able to experience a variety of fur babies with different personalities. I’m currently working part-time and going to school online full-time, so I’m home most of the time anyways. I usually work early mornings and am off before 3. My job is very flexible when it comes to scheduling, so I can work around dog-sitting if needed. When caring for pets in client’s homes I’ll make sure I abide by their rules and make sure their pets aren’t getting into places they shouldn’t. I’ll provide plenty of playtime if needed and build that sense of trust with each and everyone of ur fur babies!

About: I’ve been an animal lover my whole life. I grew up wanting to be a veterinarian but ended up being a nurse because I thought I would be too sad with sick animals. It wasn’t until I took care of my elderly dog Lucky that I realized I did have it in me to give sick animals that extra love and patience. I have experience with dogs, chickens, bunnies, horses, cows, and cats. I like cats but I’m allergic, sorry! Odds are if there’s a dog at a party I’m hanging out with the dog from the minute I get there up until it’s time to go. I love going for walks around different parts of the city to clear my mind from a stressful work week. Let me know if I can help care for your pup! I work 12 hour shifts 3 days a week and I’m usually free 4 days a week unless I pick up extra! The days that I work I start as early as 10am as late as 3pm so I can stop by before work if need be. Pets are family. I would treat your pup just as it was my own and give it the love, care, and attention they need. I know finding pet care can be difficult, but you also want someone trustworthy. I’ve been background checked to get my nursing license and have to behave very well to keep it. I would take this opportunity just as serious.

About: I've taken care of dogs my whole life, but developed a love for it at 12. I've cared for many dogs from friends and family throughout the years, including our family dog. I'm comfortable and familiar with feeding, walks, bathroom breaks, bathing, giving meds, and giving lots of love and attention! I'm responsible, patient, and attentive and my goal is to always keep them comfortable, happy, and healthy! Am currently unemployed, so open schedule! Available for all needs including drop ins, walks, pet sitting, etc. Will update when my schedule becomes more full! I take pet safety very seriously and will always make sure pets are secure and comfortable. I’m very attentive to their habits, moods, and needs. I’ll make sure they always have plenty of food & water, love, and attention. I follow each owner's instructions and schedule and keep a close eye on pets. If pet sitting, I always keep the environment clean and organized and always supervise. When on walks, I always take precautions and stay alert for any situation, and follow any instructions if given and will always keep you updated. Safety is always no. 1 priority! I know how important it is to trust someone with your pets, so I always treat & love them like my own.

About: Pets have always been a special part of my life. I’ve cared for my own pets, friends’ and family members’ dogs, and the dogs and cats of families I’ve babysat for since I was 13. After 15+ years of caring for dogs and cats, I’ve learned that every pet has their own personality, routines, and little quirks — and I love getting to know what makes each one unique. As an elementary school teacher of 6 years, I bring patience, attentiveness, and a nurturing approach to everything I do. I understand the importance of creating a safe, comfortable environment where each animal feels loved and cared for. I currently offer house sitting with pets and would be honored to care for your dog or cat like they’re part of my own family while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I truly enjoy spending time with animals and creating a safe, comfortable experience where they feel happy and cared for. I am available outside the hours of 7:00 AM–3:00 PM, with availability for early morning check-ins, afternoon visits, and evening care after 3:30 PM. I’m available for drop-in visits, walks, house sitting, and dog or cat sitting, with weekend availability when scheduled in advance. I understand how important routine, attention, and consistency are for pets, and I’ll treat yours with the same care, patience, and respect I would give my own. I care for pets in their own homes so they can stay comfortable and keep their normal routines while you’re away. I will carefully follow your instructions, respect your space, and provide the same patience and attention I would want for my own pets. During visits and house sitting, I focus on companionship, playtime, and helping your pet feel safe and cared for. For walks, I’ll follow your dog’s usual routine and take them on routes you approve of, where they feel comfortable. I’m happy to provide updates at whatever frequency works best for you, so you can feel confident knowing your pet is receiving thoughtful, dependable care.

About: Over my lifetime I have had small medium and large dogs. I have also had my share of cats. I am experienced with senior dogs and giving any type of medication if needed. I am retired and I recently lost my 10-year-old French bulldog (Remi). I have found that I now have a lot of time on my hands as he was my main focus. I am available weekdays and weekends. I am available to care for your pets in your home keeping them safe and stress-free. I will give them love and attention and give you regular updates so your time away from them will be as stress-free as possible.

“Joseph is great! I found him to be very responsible, with great attention to detail. I can trust him to take the best care of my pups, so I have no worries!”
