Pet Sitting Village Homes

About: I’ve grown up with dogs and learned to care for them and love them. My love for dogs and pets led me to study Animal Science at UC Davis to become a veterinarian. I’ve been known to be good at handling and managing dogs. I would treat your dog as if it were one of my own. I’m currently taking classes and working part time but I can work around my schedule to ensure your pet gets the walks that they need. I am very respectful of any space and will respect your home while taking care of your environment. I understand trust is important so I’ll be glad to build that trust.

“Suhani did a great job on her drop-in visit for our cat to ensure his food, water, and bedding were are replenished and comfortable. Suhani’s punctuality and communication skills were also great - timely and helpful.”

“Zoe is great! Our dog Jackson is high energy and can be difficult, but Zoe handles him confidently and with care. We feel comfortable going out of town knowing that Zoe will check on Jackson while we are away.”

About: I’ve spent over 10 years caring for pets, including senior pets and those with special needs, including diabetes care. I’m always happy to tailor my approach so your pet gets the exact care, attention, and routine they’re used to. As someone with pets of my own, I have a good chunk of time carved out specifically for animal care. I would love to spend my spare time with other pets while their families are away. I am committed to providing personalized care tailored to each pet’s routine and needs. In a client’s home, I maintain your pet’s normal schedule with feedings, fresh water, walks or litter box cleaning, playtime, and companionship. My goal is to keep your pet comfortable and their routine consistent to minimize any stress while you're away.

“Alyssa always takes great care of my pets. The dogs and cats love spending time with her and the photos she send of them playing and being happy are always great!”

“Julia was great! We booked her last minute and she was able to accommodate. After giving Maverick his medicine & pee break, she stayed with him and gave him lots of love. She let us know how he was doing and sent us pictures during the short visit.”

About: I have always had a deep love and respect for animals of all kinds. This led me to get a degree in zoology and now I’m working at UC Davis animal science. I have owned and cared for a variety of animals including small and large dogs, reptiles, amphibians, and small mammals. Currently I have a playful sweet husky-staffy mix named Astrid for your pet to play with if interested! I currently work at UC Davis in the animal science department so I am most free in the early mornings and afternoons on weekdays as well as weekends. My number one priority is the safety and happiness of your pets. I am capable of adapting to your pets routine or incorporating them into mine

“Jessie is wonderful to have as our pet sitter! She communicates well and was so great with Oslo. She is totally trustworthy and we will definitely be calling upon her again!”

“Wenchi did a great job walking Rio for the first time. He isn't used to strangers or being left alone for a long time. Wenchi was very patient and kind in coaxing him out of the house for his walk. I loved the communication with her and the photos which gave me assurance that he wasn't unusually stressed with this situation. I would definitely use her again to walk Rio.”

I need pet time to function properly.

About: I've grown up and lived with dogs most of my life. The best part of visiting home is getting to see our long haired terrier and our chihuahua mix. I've dog and house sat multiple times for friends who live in Davis. It’s always been a great experience as I find walking and hanging out with dogs to be a good way of decompressing from classes. I currently have more flexibility in my academic schedule, so I'm open for short or long term pet and house sitting. If you think I may be a good fit, please feel free to reach out. I'm currently helping in a lab on UCD, but my timing is flexible. I can easily work pet and house sitting into my schedule. My current living situation doesn't allow for me to have pets. When it comes to caring for a pet in their home I would follow the existing routines and refer to how the owner cares for their pet. I am a firm believer that it's far less stressful for a dog or cat to be able to stay home while their owner is out of town.

“Su completed all daily tasks I requested perfectly and took a good care of my cats. My cats were happy, and I was satisfied to work with her!”

About: I’m an attentive and patient sitter with experience caring for both cats and dogs, including shy, energetic, and sensitive pets. I adapt to each pet’s personality to help them feel safe and comfortable. I have cat sitter for friends, joined a friend on dog sitting trips via trusted house sitters, and also provided dog care in Davis locally. I have a flexible schedule and am available for drop-ins and house sitting during weekdays and weekends. I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine to provide attentive and consistent care. At this time, I provide care in clients’ homes to ensure pets remain comfortable in their familiar environment. I prioritize safety, cleanliness, and clear communication, and I follow each owner’s instructions carefully to maintain routines and minimize stress.

About: I am currently a student at the UC Davis School of Veterinary Medicine to become a vet! I have had pets at home since elementary school including dogs, cats, and chickens. At home I play an integral role caring for each of my pets. My love for animals extends outside of the house as I look to work with animals professionally as a veterinarian. I have 8 years of experience volunteering and working at veterinary clinics. Through my work, I have learned to handle all kinds of breeds and temperaments. I am so excited to work with your pets and provide incredible service. Shoot me a message with any questions or requests and I will be sure to respond day-of. I am currently in my second year of vet school and will have openings most days at various times to care for all your dog's and/or cat's needs before, after, and between classes. I have previous experience as a veterinary assistant, which consisted of caring for pets, so this will just be an extension of the same care I provided in the animal hospital and the animals I care for in vet school. I am very comfortable tending to all the needs of your pets including walking, feeding, playing with, cleaning up after, and giving medications. I am confident in handling dogs and cats and will ensure their safety around other animals.

“Rachel was great with our cats :) She is very knowledgeable about animals and was communicative throughout the weekend. Highly recommend booking Rachel!”

About: I have been taking care for my German shepherd dog since he was a puppy. I walk him twice a day and take him out to dog park at least once a a week. I taught my dog skills such as sit, wait, shake paw and down. I’m currently a prevet student at UCD and my dog stay home with my parents. So currently I have spare time to walk or drop in dogs. I have a back yard with fences and have a German shepherd that friendly to dogs and human. It pretty easy for my to handle big dogs since I own a big dog too.

“Katie is such a wonderful and caring dog sitter! She was so easy to communicate with, reliable, and kind to my fur baby. I’m so thankful for her and certainly recommend her for hire! We can’t wait to see her again.”
