About: I've been a pet guardian all of my (long-ish) life and I understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member. I’m reliable, communicative, and detail-oriented — I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you always know how your pet is doing. I'm currently not working full time, so I have time to help you look after your animals. My dogs (springer spaniels) lived very long and happy lives, and now I have a solo cat at home. I am available to visit your animals in your home, take them for walks, clean up after them and play with them. I can't have overnights at the moment due to my own pet.

“Mia is great. On time, reliable, and very caring toward our pup. Thanks!”

About: I’ve taken care of medium-large dogs for the last 5 years. I’ve trained a puppy and feel very comfortable caring for them and know how important it is to get them out for their walks. I have 4 days off a week (varying days) that I’m very willing to spend time walking and visiting dogs. I enjoy runs myself so if the dogs are up for it we could go or just sit on the couch and relax. I can’t care for pets in my home as I only live in a studio, but I have lived in a house with a fenced in yard where dogs would go out. I have lived in an apartment with a puppy and got very used to going out frequently and running around at the dog parks

About: I have hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments. My background includes daily walks, feeding, and providing attentive companionship. I’m comfortable handling energetic puppies as well as senior pets who need extra patience and care. I focus on creating a safe, stress-free environment so pets feel secure and happy while their owners are away. I am available to care for your pets on Monday, Wednesday, Fridays, Saturday and Sunday all day. Tuesday and Thursday I am available after 5:30pm. Your pet’s safety and well-being are my top priorities. I provide a clean, calm, and secure environment where pets can feel comfortable and relaxed. I carefully follow all care instructions, keep a close eye on behavior, and maintain a routine that matches what your pet is used to. You can trust that your pet will be treated with the same care and attention I would give my own.

About: I have cared for hundreds of cats and dogs of all different ages, breeds and activity levels. I have experience administering medications and performing wellness checks. My experience comes from working at the Thousand Hills Pet Resort here in San Luis Obispo, my studies as an Animal Science student at Cal Poly SLO, and raising my own animals. At home, I have a beautiful German Shepherd, a cuddly Queensland Heeler, and a shy but adorable Whippet, along with two sweet and lovable cats. I look forward to meeting you and your pet! My schedule is relatively flexible when I am not traveling (I try to keep my availability as accurate as possible) shoot me a message and we’ll make it work! Thanks 😊 I value respect for you, your pet, and your home. I am honest, attentive and mindful of my environment in an effort to ensure an experience as safe and as enjoyable as possible.

About: I've had dogs and many other pets my entire life- a boxer, pugs, Akita, Cairn, and a terrier mix with health issues, requiring extra care. I'm recently retired, so pet sitting will be my full time priority. I will devote all my care and attention to your pets, plants and garden. As an avid walker and hiker, I especially enjoy caring for dogs who love outdoor time and exercise. I also love being in nature, so pet sitting is a great fit-it allows me to care for animals while spending time outdoors. I no longer have pets of my own and truly miss the companionship they bring, which makes caring for animals especially rewarding to me. Spending time with pets feels grounding and joyful, and I genuinely value creating a calm, reassuring presence for them while their people are away

About: My name is Julie and my partner, Scotty and I (pictured above) have over 25 years of experience walking, sitting and caring for all animals, as well as luxury homes. We absolutely love all animals and enjoy spending every minute with them! We work with a variety of animals: dogs, cats, chickens, birds, horses, mules, ponies, reptiles (chameleons, lizards, snakes, turtles, tortoises, frogs all kinds), fish, rabbits, rodents (hamsters, guinea pigs, rats, mice) and exotic animals such as ferrets. We care for elderly pets, and have experience providing daily medication/injections. We can help to maintain the routine and love they are used to, so they will not feel alone while you are away. When booking with us, you will get two pet sitters for the price of one. Since one of us works remote, there is always someone to take care of your pets while you are gone. We do accept last minute requests and will make it happen if we can. I have volunteered at animal shelters since I was in high school. Family and friends have relied on me since I was very young to care for their pets. I am responsible, reliable, loving, and very caring. We are available for dog walks, house sitting, boarding at our house (we have a yard and live on a giant park/dog park), drop-ins, pet transport, pet errands and vet visits (complete with detailed reports). 🥰🐶🐾 We work from home and have a flexible schedule, which is ideal for petsitting. We're very active with multiple walks and park visits throughout the day. We love to spoil our pet-guests with trips to the beach to dig/play, hikes on nearby trails and plenty of enrichment activities (puzzles, lick mats, brain toys) throughout the day. We live on a huge park/fenced dog park and have plenty of room for dogs to play (indoors and outdoors). Our house is clutter free and has ample room for indoor play complete with enrichment activities/toys! We offer morning/afternoon/evening feedings. The goal is to keep their routine similar to their home routine! We give our dogs plenty of exercise and prefer to keep them uncrated if possible (unless they prefer their crate).

About: I’ve taken care of all types of dogs of various breeds and medical conditions or concerns. I grew up with a variety of different types of pets, from desert tortoises, bearded dragons, cats, to Rottweilers, labs, and bulldogs! I was given the full time responsibility of taking care of them so I can ensure you your pet will be in good care! I can administer medication, take care of young puppies as well as older dogs no matter the condition. I currently just have my desert tortoise, so no other pups or cats. I’m CPR certified with over 10 years of experience in dog sitting, cat sitting, or feeding other furry friends. Feel free to contact me anytime I would love to help to take care of your fur babies as if they were my own. I have lots of free time as I am not working at the moment so feel free to send me a message anytime! I am currently working part time, and have plenty of time to give your pop the proper time and Car takes. I am very open with working with people schedules. Just let me know what works for you and set up a meet and greet whenever it works best for you. I have a grassy back yard that has a high brick wall fenced off. Good amount of space to run around. Plenty of water and even dog treats that come in handy for the pups I have sit. I’ll play with them and make sure they get all the proper care they deserve!

About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats of all kinds since I was 6. Having my own dog was literally the dream of my life since I remember. I’ve always loved animals and have had pets my entire life, - at different times, my family had 3 dogs, 4 cats, parrots, hamsters, and even chickens. I’ve always been the go-to person in my family for walking, feeding, bathing, and looking after our pets, and I truly enjoy every part of it. I love all animals, and I genuinely believe they feel my positive energy and trust in return. I’d be happy to help with pet sitting, drop-in visits, or dog walking any time of day, including overnight stays. Please feel free to reach out anytime. I’m flexible throughout the day and will be glad to take care, home sitting or walking your pups, including overnight stay, please feel free to contact me. I can care for your pets in your home or spend time with them in your backyard. Unfortunately, I’m not able to host pets in my own home at the moment.

“Fritz loved his walk/playtime with Noemi. She was amazing. She was very accommodating to our difficult schedules. She asked what our puppy needed to work on while walking..for us “no pulling” while on leash. He’s strong , fast and goofy with his balance. Fritz is growing so fast and we care for an elderly fragile person in our home. She was very helpful to grandma Gigi during pick up/drop off so we greatly appreciated her going the extra mile. He got the appropriate amount of exercise in the timespan we booked. He was calmer than usual (which was exactly what we hoped for) after his walk and it gave us time to get home from work and get him out for more more exercise. Noemi comes highly appreciated and highly recommended from Fritz’ pup family. Thanks a bunch :)”

About: I’ve helped rescue two dogs so far within these past few years. Animals have really brightened up my life. I love caring for pets any size and age. My old co workers would call me the doggy whisperer because I liked talking to the dogs that would come in with their owners and the dogs seem to take a liking to me. I’m not sure why dogs gravitate to me. I think it has to do with how much I appreciate all the love they have to give. They truly are little fury blessings. I am grateful to come in to contact with pets. I enjoy making them smile from ear to ear. With great responsibility, there also comes great rewards with having pets. I’m here to help anybody in need of a dog/house sitter! My availability is currently open anytime Monday through Sunday, day or night! I also am available for holidays and all summer long if you need me. I am currently only open to house sitting inside your home or pet sitting in your home. Temporarily in a transition of moving so, my place currently isn’t available for dog boarding.

About: I grew up taking care of animals since the age of 12. Whenever family, friends, or neighbors needed someone to take care of their furry bestie; I gave them the a blast! I enjoy taking them on long walks/hikes, teach them tricks or polite manners, play with their favorite toy, and last but not least putting them to sleep by singing to them if they need snuggle time. Back to the present, I just graduated UCSC with a bachelor’s in Economics and I have a lot of availability. Taking care of someone's loving best friend would be an honored to spend my time for. Please don't hesitate to contact me if you have any questions. Love, Natalie N💜 I am very flexible since I just graduated UCSC and have a lot of time on my hands to use. And I would love to spend more time with animals.❤️ I am able to go to anyones home to take care of their dog if their owner is working or out of town. I am unable to bring them to my home that I share with others, due to no cats or dogs allowed. However, I don’t want that limitation to keep me away from my furry friends☺️ Im available every day of the week: Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. I really want to make time for our furry friends☺️ I play with them and get them tired enough for them go feel relaxed and safe. I also take them on long walks and feed them:)

About: We had two corgis who lived long full lives walking them out at River Park or around our old Lompoc neighborhood was always special. I believe in keeping dogs close and nurturing them with positive reinforcement. I am training for half marathons again. Our dogs were my best running buddies. I like having a pet temporarily. I work as a realtor so I am in charge of my schedule. Taking and sending photos of your dogs' stays in progress is fun. I am very responsible. Our girl corgi was a 5 week old puppy when we got her. After we adopted the boy at 2 years old he was a 4H dog that we trained and learned to train for showing. Taking care of my BFF's cat and dog while she traveled for five to seven days in a few occasions was a special experience. Providing hospitality to pets in their home is my pleasure. Looking forward to seeing you and meeting and spending time with your pet Currently the only scheduled obligation I have is an environmental horticulture class at sbcc on Thursdays ends 05/25. Taking golf this summer. Looking forward to meeting new dogs in their homes. Taking care of dogs in their own home is a seamless way for your dog to feel secure and well taken care of with minimal changes for your dog to adjust to.

About: In recent years, I have built a strong trustworthy reputation via more than 80 (yep, eighty) 5-star reviews on a leading house/pet care platform. Photos of some were in here, but the system removed them. Happy to share that information with you when we are in contact. Most sits span several weeks, with a 4-week minimum being easiest on the schedule. I do tend to book in advance. Because I have cared for senior pets (several being older than 15: both dogs and cats, some sight or hearing or limb-disabled), administered meds which also includes insulin shots, and managed various sizes and breeds, pet parents and high end homeowners appreciate this reliability and standard. In some cases, we have only Zoomed before a sit, and never met in-person. Due to great reciprocal communication, the results were wonderful. I offer experience both house & pet-sitting, and am a former (& future) homeowner. I’ve had all kinds of pets throughout my entire life. In adulthood, a Lhasa Apso was my co-pilot for 13 years, and I will have others. For now, I enjoy supporting and caring for yours. Let’s Zoom and take it from there. Looking forward. We will discuss this. Historically (for more than 20 years), I have been able to work from anywhere. We can talk through the options together. Unless you hire me for an overnight sit, I will be coming to them for drop-in or other care. I will not be bringing your pet(s) to my location.

About: I grew up on 5 acres and we had a mini zoo complete with a horse, goats, chickens and ducks, cats, dogs, small birds, ferrets, guinea pigs, snakes, and even mice! I have always loved animals and found caring for them to be an irreplaceable experience that makes my heart happy. I want to pass this love of animals and caretaking to my daughter and figured using an opportunity like pet and housesitting while I finish my degree and transition back to working would be the most fun and fulfilling way to get through this difficult time. I will not only be caring for your animals but teaching my child invaluable lessons on what it means to be responsible for a pet. I am currently a full-time online student finishing my BA and my daughter is being homeschooled, so I have flexibility to offer the pet care closest to what the owners provide them. I will care for pets in the clients home as closely to their own care for their pets. I will update them as often as desired and keep their space clean and comfortable. I was a residential cleaner for several years, and I guarantee a respectful stay within their homes.

“Kim is AMAZING!”
