Cat Sitting in Alviso

“I recently hired XI to take care of my cats while I was away, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. She was incredibly attentive, reliable, and caring. My cats were well cared for, played with, and clearly adored the extra attention! I received regular updates and photos, which gave me great peace of mind. When I returned, my cats were happy and relaxed. I highly recommend XI to anyone looking for a responsible and loving cat sitter!”

“Dawn was the best sitter we’ve hired from Rover! She went above and beyond for our kitties and clearly loves what she does. She sent fun updates with great photos every day and we came back to a tidy home, despite one of our cats making a mess while we were gone. She is an excellent communicator and I felt like our pets were in being well cared for while we were away. I will be hiring her again.”

“She is an exceptionally detailed carer. I am more than happy to recommend her to anyone looking for pet sitting in the area. She will go above and beyond to not just look after the pets basic needs but also look out for things you may have forgotten to mention like temperature control in the house, or vacuuming the bathroom floor. She taught me things like whisker fatigue in cats and what helps that, displaying her knowledge and willingness to care for your pet like her own. She is also proactive, and easy to work with and happy to pick up a package that urgently needed to be picked up while we were gone. Overall, I was very reassured to have her care for Yuki because I knew she was in good hands. Please hire her!”

“Laurel was a fantastic pet sitter for our cat Jake, and we highly recommend her. She was extremely responsive, reliable, and communicative throughout the entire time. She did a wonderful job taking care of all the essentials, and we especially appreciated that she took the time to play and interact with Jake. Would definitely book with her again!”

“Frank has been a fantastic dog walker! He’s always punctual, communicates clearly, and provides detailed updates after every walk. Most importantly, my dog absolutely loves him. Highly recommend!”

“Erjin is super nice! He came by beforehand to meet our cat. He was really gentle and paid attention to all the little details. He took great care of our cats and sent us lots of photos. Our cat was very happy to see him! Thank you and highly recommend!”

“Sierra was absolutely amazing with our kittens. Before our trip, one of them unexpectedly needed medication, and Sierra handled all the care instructions so carefully and confidently. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. She constantly kept us updated with photos and videos from every visit, and it was obvious from the way the kittens interacted with her that they genuinely liked and trusted her. She also took her time playing with them and making sure they got attention, affection, and enrichment, not just the basic care. She didn’t just “check in” on them, she truly cared for them like they were her own. We came back to two happy, comfortable kittens, and we couldn’t be more grateful. Would highly recommend Sierra to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and attentive pet sitter!”

“Omar is incredible with our little cat, Cosmo! Our boy loves him and Omar is very attentive and communicative, letting us know how his litter is looking, if he’s eating alright, and if he seems comfortable/playful as normal. We get tons of photos every day, and we’ve noticed the care Omar puts into being in our home, too! Cosmo always has a fresh pot of cat grass planted after visits with Omar, and we notice litter vacuuming as well. Above and beyond for us!! If we can help it, Omar will always be our go-to for care.”

“Stephen was absolutely amazing with my cat ! I booked Stephen last minute for 6 days . I am glad he was available. I could not have found a better sitter for my cat. He made sure to feed and refill my cat’s food and water while I was gone. He sent tons of pictures and very responsible in communicating with me over the Rover app! He checked in timely and was extremely professional, he spent a lot of time playing with my cat! I will definitely book him again”

“We booked Kiana to medicate and walk our two cats. From the beginning, she showed a great aptitude and care to get them to trust her. She also stayed in frequent contact, giving us many pictures and updates, and not hesitating to reach out if she had any questions. We feel that our cats were in excellent hands and were able to rest easy on our vacation. We look forward to booking Kiana again!”

About: Hi! I offer private, one-on-one cat boarding in a quiet home in the Bay Area. ✨ What makes my care different: • I only host ONE cat at a time (or cats from the same household) • My home has NO other pets, creating a calm, stress-free environment • I work from home full-time, so your cat gets consistent supervision and companionship throughout the day I have years of experience caring for cats, including raising my own American Shorthair, and I’m also actively involved in TNR (trap-neuter-return) work helping community cats. I’m comfortable working with different personalities, including shy or sensitive cats. My goal is to provide a safe, quiet, and low-stress environment, especially for cats who don’t do well in busy boarding settings. I will follow your cat’s routine closely and provide daily updates with photos/videos, so you can feel at ease while you’re away. I currently work from home full-time, so your cat will have consistent supervision and companionship throughout the day. I’m able to maintain a stable routine for feeding, playtime, and monitoring, ensuring your cat feels safe and cared for at all times. My home is a calm, quiet, and pet-free environment with no other animals, which helps reduce stress for visiting cats. I only host one cat at a time, keep the space clean and secure, and closely monitor your cat to ensure safety and comfort throughout their stay.

“Yiwei and Yue were wonderful! They were very responsive and easy to work with. Yue took the time to meet Nimbo before our vacation. She took notice of Nimbo's mannerisms and was familiar with the types of litter and food that we had in the house. While Yue was visiting, she noticed that the automatic pet feeder was out of dry food so she took the time to make sure that it was refilled. Thank you again for watching over Nimbo!”

About: I grew up with dogs and while my current situation isn't conducive to owning, dogsitting and walking suffice the immediate urge. I grew up with St. Bernards, so I can handle dogs of all sizes. My schedule will be very open, but I enjoy waking up early and going on walks, so if that is something that you are looking for I would gladly volunteer my services. I am very active and am ready to tire out your dog in the yard or on a run when necessary. Looking forward to spending time with your dog! I'm taking some time in between jobs, so my days are wide open, but I play soccer in the evenings very regularly, so that is the only part of the day where I may have limitations. I am not able to offer boarding given my apartment restrictions, but I can assure you I will treat your home with care and respect.

“Jiamin is the best pet sitter ever! One of the things I appreciated most was how much attention and affection Jiamin gave to my cat. On top of that, Jiamin wrote a River Card after every visit and included tons of pictures and videos. My cat looked like he was having an amazing time—honestly, even more fun than he usually has with me, lol. Jiamin also noticed that my cat might benefit from having more companionship. Because of that, I requested an additional last-minute visit, and Jiamin was kind enough to accommodate it. I could feel the care and affection in every visit, and my cat definitely loved Jiamin.”

“Louie loves Qianwen!! She is very communicative, very sweet & accommodating. Super flexible and reliable. Definitely will continue to have her stay with Louie when needed.”

About: I provide thoughtful, individualized care based on each dog’s age, energy level, and routine. I have experience with both puppies and senior dogs, including reinforcing basic training, maintaining consistent schedules, administering medications, and supporting mobility or slower-paced walks when needed. I’m comfortable caring for multiple dogs at once and prioritize safety, clear communication, and respect for your home. I treat every dog as if they were my own and aim to give pet parents complete peace of mind. I babysit on Mondays and Fridays from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m., but pet care fits naturally into my routine outside of those hours. I’m available for early morning and evening walks, drop-ins, and overnight care on those days, and I have more flexibility the rest of the week. I plan my schedule carefully to ensure each pet receives reliable, attentive care, and I only take on bookings I can fully commit to. Communication and consistency are priorities for me, so pet parents always know their pets are well cared for. I follow each pet’s established routine to keep them comfortable and reduce stress, whether care is provided in my home or the client’s home. I prioritize safety, cleanliness, and consistency by carefully following feeding schedules, walk routines, medication instructions, and any training guidelines provided. During visits, I make sure pets receive attentive supervision, appropriate exercise, enrichment, and affection based on their age and energy level. I also keep pet parents updated with clear communication and regular check-ins so they feel confident their pets are being cared for responsibly and thoughtfully.

“Adrianna took care of our cat for three weeks while we were on our honeymoon and she went above and beyond to keep us updated and keep our home clean and secure. We looked forward to receiving her cheerful and thorough reports each day. Our cat loved her and it was obvious from the many wonderful photos and videos she shared. Thank you, Adrianna!”

“Rendell was amazing with my cats. In addition to the standard care he was able to catch Darcy and give her the medication. He finished by washing the pet dishes, going beyind my ask. I can home to happy cats and didn't have to worry about my ailing cat while I was gone.”

Laura E.

“Denny did a wonderful job caring for our very shy cat! She played with him, gave him scratches, took the cutest photos to update us, and provided the BEST company while we were gone! Highly recommend :)”

About: I provide active, attentive, and structured care for both dogs and cats, with a focus on exercise, comfort, and individualized attention. For dogs, I’m especially a great fit for higher-energy pets that need more activity and engagement. I provide: • 3 daily walks (typically 20 mins to 1 hour each depending on energy level and needs) • A large fenced yard for safe outdoor play and exercise • Plenty of interaction, playtime, and supervision throughout the day I also have extensive experience caring for cats and have raised 5+ cats over the years. For cats that prefer quieter environments or separation from dogs, I have a dedicated empty bedroom available to help them feel safe and relaxed. Additional care I can provide includes: • Brushing and de-shedding • Nail trimming • Basic dental cleaning (if tolerated) • Frequent updates with photos/videos I focus on quality care and take a limited number of pets so I can give each one more attention and a calmer experience. I have a flexible schedule and can accommodate morning, or evening visits. I’m available on both weekdays and weekends, and I can adjust to your cat’s routine to ensure consistency and comfort. I prioritize reliability and will make sure your cat is cared for on time every visit, whether it’s daily check-ins or extended care. I provide a calm, clean, and safe environment and always follow your care instructions closely. I understand that cats can be sensitive to changes, so I focus on minimizing stress and maintaining their normal routine. I’m experienced with handling cats gently, including grooming (brushing, nail trimming, and basic hygiene if your cat allows). I pay close attention to their behavior, appetite, and overall well-being, and I will keep you updated with photos and notes after each visit. Your cat’s safety, comfort, and trust are always my top priorities.
