Allison has been amazing with my boy Andre during her daily visits! I have been using her services for a few weeks now and she has showed to be very reliable and affordable. I'm not sure what I would do without her help, as I work long hours away from home. Having her come midday and spend time with Andre has made me feel so much better about leaving my boy. Highly recommend Allison!

About: As a lifelong dog lover and the proud owner of five wonderful dogs throughout my life, I’ve been caring for pets since I was 11 years old. I’m currently a full-time college student, and spending time with animals is one of my greatest joys. Whether it’s going on energetic runs or playing a game of fetch, I make sure every pup gets the exercise, engagement, and love they need. I always treat the pets I care for as if they were my own, because I understand just how much they mean to their families. I’m happy to accommodate any special needs your dog may have and follow all instructions closely. Long walks and attentive care are guaranteed, though I can’t promise I won’t sneak them an extra treat or two! As a part-time college student, I have a flexible schedule and plenty of free time to dedicate to caring for animals. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine—I genuinely enjoy spending time with pets, whether it’s going on walks, playing, or just offering some calm companionship. My availability allows me to give each pet the attention and care they deserve, without feeling rushed or distracted. I provide pet care in my clients’ homes, where pets are most comfortable in their familiar environment. I make sure to follow all routines and instructions closely—whether it’s feeding, administering medication, going on walks, or giving them playtime and attention. I keep the space tidy, respect your home, and make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away.

About: I have been taking care of pets for years, and I love spending time with all animals. I help friends and family when they are gone on vacations or even close neighbors who need their pets taken care of. I honestly have so much love for animals and believe they are the best friends for hoomans. I lost my old man in 2025, and definitely have a soft spot for the older ones, but enjoy the way puppies have so much energy as well. Whenever I had to leave my little guy with someone I just wanted to trust he was being loved and taken care of as I would if it were me, and that is what I strive to do for all animals I sit/walk for. People want to know their pet is safe and having a good time so they can enjoy their time and not need to worry, and that is my goal. I currently am working from home and have to occasionally meet clients outside of my home. My schedule is very adaptive to being able to walk, feed, play, or whatever is needed. I have a fenced yard and my house is very dog friendly and in my opinion they run the home. That being said if there are rules for your dog I will adhere to them as to not break any training they are currently in or have learned.

Jeanne did an amazing job taking care of my kitten! She took time to play and cuddle with him and he absolutely loved her! It made me feel much better being away from him especially when she gave detailed notes from her visits and shared the cutest pictures of him! Highly recommend using Jeanne for your pet sitting needs:)

About: I have over 7 years of hands-on experience as a dog owner, providing daily care including walks, feeding, and lots of love. I truly enjoy being around animals and am comfortable caring for both dogs and cats. I’m patient, attentive, and treat every pet like part of the family. I am currently not working, so I have plenty of time and flexibility in my day. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, and I am fully available to give pets the attention, walks, and care they need. I take care of pets in their own home by following their normal routine as closely as possible. I make sure they are fed on time, have fresh water, get regular walks, and receive plenty of attention and companionship so they feel comfortable and secure.

Mimi went above and beyond caring for my sweet, super senior girl. She is very experienced and knowledgeable and noticed right away when something was off with my baby. She took her straight to the vet and her quick actions have given my baby the best chance to recover from a sudden medical emergency. She kept me updated on everything. She continues to check in and is just so sweet. I could not recommend Mimi enough!

About: Hello! I am a natural animal lover. I have much experience with animals including my own dog who is now 7 years old. I have dog sat for dogs as small as Corgis to as large as Great Danes! I also have house sit and simultaneously taken care of 4 cats, 2 dogs, 2 horses and many birds including chickens, turkeys, ducks, and peacocks. I have a wide variety of animal care experience and love all furry or feathery friends. I work as a substitute teacher so I am looking for work during the summer. Since I will not be working, I would basically be available all day most days. I am also studying to get my masters degree so I could likely spend a lot of time with your animal while I work on my computer. I would not be able to care for animals in my own home. However, I am happy to stay at clients homes to care for their pets. I would follow any and all directions to a “T” and make sure your animal is well loved as well as basic needs taken care of in your absence.

About: I provide attentive, in home care with a focus on safety, structure, and making each dog feel completely at ease. Being home throughout the day allows me to give consistent supervision, maintain routines, and adjust to each dog’s individual needs. I’m experienced with multiple dogs, different temperaments, and creating a calm, balanced environment. Pet care is built into my daily routine. I’m home throughout the day, so your dog will get consistent care, attention, and companionship not long hours alone. I focus on a calm, loving environment where pets feel right at home. I offer a boutique style, low volume pet care experience. My home includes a secure fenced yard for safe, supervised outdoor play, and I keep a low number of pets so each one gets plenty of attention, care, and a calm, comfortable environment. When caring for pets in your home, I follow their normal routine to keep them comfortable and stress free, providing feeding, walks, playtime, and lots of attention so they feel safe while you’re away.

About: Dogs have always felt like family to me. I grew up with them, cared for them, trained them, and learned early on that dogs need more than someone simply watching them. They need attention, patience, structure, and a home where they feel safe. Since I work from home, I’m around most of the day and can give your dog consistent care, walks, attention, and companionship. Whether your dog is high-energy and needs structure, or a little anxious and needs patience, I’ll do my best to help them feel comfortable and cared for. I’ll follow your dog’s routine closely, treat them like part of the family, and keep you updated so you know they’re in good hands. I work remotely, so caring for dogs fits very naturally into my day. Since I’m home most of the time, your dog won’t be left alone for long stretches and will get regular attention, supervision, walks, and companionship throughout the day. I’m available for boarding, drop-ins, and walks on both weekdays and weekends. I’m also flexible with scheduling and happy to work around your dog’s normal routine so their day feels as familiar and comfortable as possible. I keep my home clean, calm, and safe so dogs can settle in and feel comfortable while they’re here. I know every dog has their own routine, so I follow your instructions closely, including meals, walks, crate time, medications, exercise needs, and any special care requirements. I’m comfortable with crate training when needed, and I always make safety the priority, both at home and on walks. I’ll also send regular updates so you can relax and know your dog is happy, cared for, and doing well.

About: I have worked with all kinds of animals from a very young age. I have experience caring for dogs, cats, reptiles, fish, rabbits, birds, and even horses and sheep. I have taken animal science classes at UC Davis, so you can be assured that I am knowledgeable and will professionally care for your animals. I am able to perform tasks such as administering medication, work on training commands, and care for senior dogs. I currently work from home with a very flexible schedule. I can arrange to work remotely from your house, or stop by for a quick visit in between my calls. I will treat your animals like they are my own. I also will be respectful of your space while you are away. I can visit to take your animal for a walk or perform general house sitting tasks like watering plants or checking the mail.
