Pet Sitting Wahtoke

About: I've had dogs my whole life — all 40+ years of it. Reading a dog's mood, sticking to their routine, and knowing when something's off is second nature to me, not something I just picked up. And at my age, I'm past the flaky stage: I'm reliable, I show up, I communicate, and I treat your dog the way I treat my own. I'm Kristi, 43, from Sanger, and dogs have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. Right now my days revolve around my two dogs — Mina, a 2-year-old pit bull and shepherd mix who's all energy and very food-motivated, and Skai, a husky, shepherd, and lab mix who is 3-years-old and the mellow one. Between the two of them, I'm used to every kind of dog day: high-energy play, slow couch time, and everything in between. I work remotely for work so it makes it easy to be home with them all the time. Your dog joins our normal daily routine — feeding on their own schedule, walks and playtime, plenty of downtime, and a calm place to sleep at night. I have a yard with room for more dogs, and I can keep your dog separate from mine if that's a better fit — whether they need their own space or just do better one-on-one. I stick to whatever routine you give me, send you updates and photos, and if anything seems off, I call you right away and get them to a vet if needed.

About: I’ve been surrounded by tails and paws my whole life, but nothing taught me more about true pet care than raising my own dogs. What sets me apart from other sitters is my personalized approach. I treat every pet as if they were my own by giving them the kind of care that makes them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether it’s a long walk, providing comfort, or playtime, I make sure each moment counts. I’m available for overnight boarding at any time on weekends and weekdays. Doggy day care is available for all hours & days. Drop-In Visits & Walks are available WEEKDAYS : (6:30AM-12PM) or (6PM-8PM) & weekends at anytime .This makes it easy for me to accommodate overnight stays, walks, drop in visits, and day care. Whether it’s a weekend getaway or weekday work trip, you can count on me to keep your pet happy, comfortable, and well cared for. When caring for pets in my home, safety is my top priority. I provide a secure fenced area, pet friendly space that’s free from hazards, with plenty of room for play and relaxation. I make sure food, toys, and rest areas are suited to each pet’s size, age, and needs, and I always supervise to keep everyone safe and happy. I always keep a close eye on pet behavior and health so I can act quickly if something seems off.

About: Being well versed in most aspects of pet careers help me take care of your pets above and beyond! I've worked professionally with dogs for over six years as both a dog trainer, groomer and have done rescue and fostering, caring for dogs of all breeds, ages, and temperaments. My experience allows me to confidently handle everything from energetic puppies to senior dogs, while recognizing canine body language, stress signals, and changes in behavior. Your dog will receive safe, compassionate, and attentive care from someone who truly understands dogs and is committed to keeping them happy, comfortable, and well cared for while you're away. I work part time so I have plenty of time to spend with your pups! I work Wednesday-friday but can do drop in or sitting before and after work on those days. I have a fenced in yard and crates to create a safe environment for all dogs. I am also a dog trainer and have studied dog body language and can read dogs very well! I have my own dogs as well but they are all friendly to others but if it get a little too rowdy they can be separated if needed.

“Excellent dogsitter”

About: I’ve had every pet you can possibly imagine and I’ve taken care of them with all my love and knowledge! As a kid I wasn’t allowed to have cats or dogs as we lived in a small apartment. So I had hermit crabs, hamsters, turtles and fishes. At age 15 I got my first cat and now I’m a proud cat owner of 5! 2 of them live with me and the other 3 stayed with my mom when I moved out 2 years ago. But I still make time to visit them often. I also have a 1 year old puppy who I love very much. I also had a Veiled Chameleon who I had for almost 4 years. She past away last April but she lived her full life expectancy and had an enriching life. Im able to give oral medications, potty breaks, walks, play time, and cuddles. I work a 4/10/40 scheduled which is 10 hour days, 4 days a week, 40 hours total. I work 3 days in the office and 1 day from home and I am off Friday through Sunday. I have 2 loving fixed inside females cats and a 1 year old crate trained puppy who is also fixed. They are very loving of other animals and mostly just curious. They are all vaccinated as well.

“Barbara is amazing! She took such great care of Sandy while we were vacationing in Cabo. She sent pictures and updates daily. She was so caring and I know Sandy is going to miss her. We definitely will use Barbara again. The best!”

About: Pet Care Bio — Jennifer Q., Dinuba, CA Hi there! I'm Jennifer, a lifelong animal lover based right here in Dinuba. If your pet is part of the family, they’ll be treated like part of mine too. Services I offer: I provide dog walking, drop-in visits, house sitting, and overnight boarding in my home — for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. A typical visit includes fresh food/water, potty breaks, playtime, and lots of cuddles, plus daily photo/video updates so you never have to wonder how they’re doing. For walks, I love doing sniffari strolls around local parks and quiet neighborhood routes, always on-leash and at your pup’s pace. For stay-ins, I keep your pet’s exact routine — feeding times, crate training, medications, special diets — so things feel normal while you’re away. I’m comfortable with senior pets, shy rescues, high-energy puppies, multi-pet households, and basic oral medication administration. My home is pet-safe, smoke-free, with a clean, unfenced yard area and plenty of cozy nap spots. I only take 1-2 boarding clients at a time so every pet gets real one-on-one attention, and I never leave boarding pets alone for long stretches. My experience: I’ve been caring for animals for over 10+ years. I grew up with family dogs and cats, and for the last several years friends, neighbors, and coworkers in the Central Valley have trusted me with their pets while traveling. I’ve handled everything from energetic puppies who need structured play, to senior dogs who need slow walks and joint-care routines, to independent cats who just want a clean litter box and a trusted lap. I’m calm, patient, detail-oriented, and I’m big on positive reinforcement — no yelling, no harsh corrections, ever. Availability & time with your pets: I work a flexible, mostly work-from-home schedule, so I’m home for the majority of the day. Boarding dogs are rarely alone for more than 2-3 hours at a time, and I can do mid-day walks/drop-ins during the week and on weekends. I’m available for holidays and last-minute bookings with notice, and I’m happy to do meet-and-greets in Dinuba/Visalia area before any booking so you and your pet feel comfortable. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness come first with me. I’ll send you plenty of updates, follow your instructions to the letter, and leave your home just as I found it.

In your home — for house sitting & drop-ins: I treat your home and your routine with total respect. I follow your written instructions to the letter for feeding, medications, walks, and house rules. I keep doors/gates double-checked, leashes secured before opening any exterior door, and I never bring other people or pets into your home.

“Pleasure to find Hattie and she did a great job! I will be using her every time I travel in the future if she is available. Thank you so much Hattie!”

About: I’ve been around dogs for most of my life and had an English Bulldog for almost 8 years as well as a bull mastiff growing up, so I understand how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your pet. Over the years, I’ve also pet sat and dog walked for neighbors, friends, and family. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, giving lots of attention, and making sure pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I’m looking to broaden my pet-sitting and dog walking experience and would love the opportunity to care for your pets like they’re my own! I’m currently a full-time online student, so I’m home most of the day and have a very flexible schedule. Aside from going to the gym or running an occasional errand, I’m usually home, which means your dog will get plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and love throughout the day! Since my classes are online, I’m able to easily work pet care into my daily routine and make sure your dog isn’t left alone for long periods of time. I have a spacious, fully fenced backyard with plenty of grass and room for dogs to play, run around, and get fresh air safely. I also don’t currently have any dogs in my home, so your pet will get my full attention and won’t have to worry about unfamiliar animals. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, playtime, and any special instructions you provide. I also love taking dogs on walks and can adjust the length and pace depending on their age, energy level, and usual routine.

About: I’ve been blessed to have worked with numerous of breeds on things such as; leash training, obedience, patience & a few other house training tricks Im up early to keep the pups cool & safe & I’d like to get out & walk more & what’s a better way to exercise; with animals! I have a heavy big baby boy that lays on everything*especially pillows* as every animal I’ve owned so their comfort is always my first priority

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and really started to help take care of them when I was around 15. I dog sit for family and for friends whenever they need and have always enjoyed it! Pet care for me is whenever I’m available. I do work part time and I’m a full time student but even if I am busy I can make time for your fur baby! I won’t be able to care for dogs in my own home because I am in an apartment. I will take care of the animal however the owner (you) recommends, and will make sure the animal gets a lot of love/attention! :)

“Jonnie is amazing! She took care of my cat over the holidays and sent updates and pictures every day. I would definitely recommend her as a petsitter.”

“Amber replied promptly, arrived on time, and was very sweet and attentive to my little chihuahua. She did a great job, and I recommend her highly.”

About: I’ve grown up around animals of all kinds, and have been taking care of them since I was 9. I own exotic pets as well as the standard cats and dogs, and am more than happy to do whatever you need to help out you and your pets! I am committed to provided the highest quality of care for your pets from sunrise to sunset, and overnight when needed, each and every day. Being fear-free certified through animal shelters that I work at, I am experienced in caring for and interacting with your pets in the way that works best for them, no matter their needs!

About: Animal care has always been a huge part of my life and my strongest passion. I grew up on a ranch so My life has always been about animal care. For many years now I’ve worked as a volunteer for many local rescues as well as independently fostered many animals as well. The feeling of saving an animal from a horrible situation, showing them how love and attention feels and finding them their forever home and family will always be my most rewarding accomplishments and such an amazing feeling. Aside from rescue work, I’ve been pet sitting since I was in high school. It started with family and friends and just grew over time. I have an amazing clientele that I’ve had the privilege to work with over the years and I enjoy creating that trust and bond with a pet as well, I feel that it makes the time away from their parents so much more comfortable and enjoyable for them because I know a lot of animals get separation anxiety because they don’t understand what is happening and change is hard. That’s also why I like to try to keep them on the same schedule and routine as much as possible to attempt to make the transition as easy as possible. I’m experienced with elderly animals as well as special needs and puppies too! There isn’t much I cannot handle lol. I also have experience with reptiles, farm animals and exotics too. I’ve taken nutrition courses, I’m certified in CPR and grooming. I’ve taken behavioral classes and poison control courses as well. I know how to administer basically any form of medication, including IV. I love to take pets on walks when they’re in my car because it helps with anxiety and it’s all around enjoyable for us both! I may be small, but I’ve managed to walk two huskies and a pit bull at once, multiple times so personally I feel like that’s impressive lol. I take them out for many potty breaks and I understand accidents happen in the house or car sometimes as well, so I use all natural cleaners when needed. I like to give many updates, weather it’s for drop ins then I’ll let you know when I arrive and leave and send pictures in between. If I’m house sitting I’ll send random pictures and updates through out the day/night and if for whatever reason I have to leave(to the store or to get food) I also let you know. And house sitting is the same. I also have my mobile grooming kit with me at all times too so If you think your baby needs a bath, their nails cut/grinded down, teeth cleaned, or even fur colored(100% vegan and animal safe dye only) please feel free to let me know any time. I have a simple form that I ask for you to fill out during our meet, it’s just basic questions like food schedules, any allergies, medication information(If applicable) vets information and misc. things You think I should know. I have had many people even just write me a care sheet which also works. I prefer the form/care sheet method just because everything important is right there so if eliminates any room for error. I make goodie baskets for new clients as well as the end of each visit I leave a little report card you know exactly how amazing they did! I make the treats in the baskets from scratch even if they have an allergy I can accommodate! I can make treats for all animals as well. If you have any further question please feel free to reach out, I will always respond and in a very timely manner. I hope to hear from you soon and I hope I can become your pets new best friend! I’m currently working by appointment only, so my schedule is extremely flexible and I can almost always work my schedule to fit yours, if there’s any scheduling conflict I will know at least 24-48 hours ahead of time and I will 100% come up with a plan with you that works! Everyone is free roam in my house but I do have multiple size kennels set up in my home as well(they are comfy and cozy as well lol) so If you have a kennel trained baby who needs them, just let me know! I also can help out with kennel training too if needed. I have a fenced in yard but they are never unsupervised. And if we are going for a walk, I like to keep in inside my gated community where there’s hardly any traffic and there’s tons of grass to sniff and enjoy! Lol If I'm not out doing TNR and rescue work I enjoy spending time with your fur baby and would love to do this full time. I myself have a fensed in yard for everyone to roam and play, but still always being attentive and making sure everyone is safe too!

“Lolita is very good with our boy, Gunner. He seems comfortable and responds well to her. She is definitely going to be someone we look to the future with. Time will tell whether she wants to continue caring for him. Thank you, Lolita.”
