“Melody and her mom were amazing! Professional and conscientious from our very first meeting. We came home to happy cats and a clean, litter free floor. Melody kept us updated with pictures and information about each visit every day. I'm rebooking her for our next trip right now!”

About: I may be new to professional pet sitting, but I have experience caring for my own dog and understand the importance of providing a safe, loving, and structured environment. I know that every pet has their own personality and routine, and I’m committed to following each owner’s instructions carefully. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, or simply giving your pet companionship, I’ll treat them with the same care and attention I give my own. My goal is to make sure both you and your pet feel comfortable, happy, and confident while you’re away. As a dedicated pet lover, I structure my daily routine around ensuring the dogs in my care receive consistent attention, regular potty breaks, and plenty of mental stimulation. Because my schedule is highly flexible, I can easily adapt to your pup's regular feeding, walking, and nap schedules without disruption. With 8 years of personal experience raising my own dogs—including a Havanese for 6 years and a dachshund, schnauzer mix for 8 years—I am deeply familiar with managing daily feeding routines and bathroom schedules. I provide a safe, reliable environment by sticking strictly to your instructions, keeping a watchful eye on your pet, and maintaining a predictable, stress-free routine while you are away.

About: Independently managed the care of pets for family and friends for 11 years, including feeding schedules, walks, and grooming routines. Willing to talk more about the care of your fur baby, if there are any concerns. I care for two birds (a Sun Conure and a Green-Cheek Conure) and two dogs (a Chocolate Lab and a Shih Tzu), which means I start my day early to handle their needs. This includes changing bedding, providing scheduled meals, grooming, and engaging them in regular playtime. Whether caring for pets in my own home or a client’s, I prioritize consistency, safety, and individual attention. In my home, I create a structured, pet-friendly environment, while in clients’ homes, I stick closely to their routines and preferences. My goal is to keep pets comfortable, happy, and well-cared for in any setting.

About: Hi! My name is Natalia but I go by Nat. I’ve been caring for dogs for about 7 years and have three dogs of my own. I’ve raised them since they were puppies, so I’m experienced with feedings, walks, playtime, giving lots of attention, and sticking to their routines. I understand every pet has different needs, and I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away! I treat every pet as my own and will always do my best for them and their owners! I have a flexible schedule and can provide pet care most of the week. I work as a swim instructor on Thursdays from 6:30p.m.-8:15p.m. , and Saturdays from 10:30 a.m.-1:15 a.m., but I’m avaible after and before these hours. I’m happy to accommodate to walks, drop in visits, and pet sitting around my work schedule, and I’ll ensure your pet gets plenty of attention and care! If there is any case of a same day booking, I am sometimes able to take it! Your pets safety, comfort, and routine are my top priorities. When caring for pets in your home, I’ll follow all instructions carefully including eating habits/schedules, walks, playtime, medications (if needed), and any special requests. I’ll treat your home with respect and care for your pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while your away.

“Myat was very helpful and got both of my super shy cats out and playing. Each visit I got tons of informative photos documenting that the cats were fed, water refilled, litter cleaned, etc. Myat remembered to check each item I had mentioned even if I hadn’t written it in the Rover description. It was very easy to give and collect the keys. I would definitely recommend Myat to look after cats and probably all other types of animals.”

“Brianna was great at watching my dog and cat over a long weekend. She came over to meet my dog Goose who can be a handful for some but they got along instantly. I could tell she really loved animals and knew what she was doing. I trust her completely and will absolutely be rebooking. She sent me such cute photos and it made me feel so great to know they were well taken care of! Thanks again!!”

About: Growing up , I was always surrounded by dogs, and their companionship became a constant source of joy and learning. I've had a female Shih Tzu at home for 12 years, and our bond is a true testament to the love and trust that dogs offer. Caring for her, especially as she grows older, has taught me the value of patience, empathy, and unconditional love—qualities that I carry with me in all aspects of life. Over the years, my experiences with dogs—both as a pet owner and a caretaker—have equipped me with a deep understanding of their needs, from playful puppies to senior dogs needing extra care. I believe in creating a comfortable, safe, and nurturing environment for pets, and I take the time to ensure that each dog feels loved and cared for, whether it’s through playtime, walks, or simply giving them attention and affection. What sets me apart from other sitters is my lifelong bond with dogs and my ability to adapt to their unique needs at different stages of life. I’m particularly skilled in handling senior dogs and providing them with the gentle care they need. Additionally, I have experience training puppies, teaching them basic commands, and helping with housebreaking. Whether your dog needs a little extra care or a playful buddy, I’m here to provide a warm and welcoming environment, just like home. Since I work from home, I have the flexibility to give my full attention to both my dog and any additional pets in my care. I can easily incorporate regular walks, playtime, and feeding into my daily routine, ensuring every dog gets the love and care they need. Whether it's a playful pup or a senior dog needing extra care, I'm always available to provide a comfortable, home-like environment. I care for pets in my home by providing a safe, comfortable environment with plenty of space to roam. We have a fenced yard where dogs can play and relax, and our neighborhood is calm and secure, perfect for easy, stress-free walks. Plus, there's a park nearby where I can take dogs for extra exercise and fun. Whether at home or on a walk, I ensure pets feel comfortable, loved, and well-cared for throughout their stay.

“Nikki cared for my two cats for several days. She was always on time, followed all directions, sent me pictures and even volunteered to roll in my garbage bins.”

About: I've loved animals of all kinds since I was little! I have had turtles, tortoises, bunnies, a chinchilla, and Pascal, the love-of-my-life golden mutt. I was privileged to spend more than 15 amazing years with him and learned about all stages of dog life, including elderly/special needs care. I've also helped friends and family take care of their pets - mostly dogs - when they were away! I work full-time, but loving on animals is the best way to relieve stress at the end of the day and on weekends! I also have Mondays off to spoil your pet! Let me know how to keep your pet safe and happy! Favorite games, toys, treats, walking spots? Is he shy, social? Loves a butt rub? An active fetch sesh? A cozy cuddle? Look no further!

About: As a proud parent of a 6-year-old Ragdoll, cats are a central part of my life. I routinely pet-sit for friends during their travels, which has given me extensive experience managing multi-cat households. I understand feline body language, respect their boundaries, and know how to handle everything from energetic play to managing separate feeding schedules and keeping litter boxes pristine. Whether your cat is a social butterfly or a shy kitty who needs time to warm up, they are in safe hands. For the pups, I am all about staying active! I am the go-to hiking and jogging buddy for my friend’s Golden Retriever, so I am well-versed in handling various breeds. My flexible work-from-home schedule blends seamlessly with pet care, allowing me to easily step away for reliable morning cat drop-ins or mid-day dog walks while giving your pets the consistent attention they need. As an outdoor enthusiast who loves hiking, tennis, and Pilates, I have the natural stamina and energy to match active breeds like Golden Retrievers, Doodles, or Corgis on the trails, yet I deeply cherish the quiet, grounding moments—whether that's practicing a workout with a kitty on the mat or providing patient companionship for a shy cat. Because I love to travel myself, I understand exactly how stressful it can be to leave your furry family members behind, which is why I am dedicated to providing the ultimate peace of mind with prompt communication and plenty of happy photo updates. When caring for your cats in the comfort of your own home, my top priority is maintaining their familiar routines to minimize any stress while you are away. I treat your home with the utmost respect, ensuring that everything from meticulous litter box scooping to pristine feeding areas is kept exactly as you like it. I know that cats are creatures of habit who feel safest in their own territory, so I tailor my visits entirely to their unique comfort levels—whether that means engaging an energetic breed with interactive toys, giving gentle chin scratches, or simply offering a quiet, reassuring presence nearby for more independent kitties. You can travel with absolute peace of mind knowing your home is secure and your cats are receiving dedicated, loving care, complete with detailed updates and plenty of photos after every single visit.

About: Your doggo will be treated like a member of the family and I will be sensitive to whatever your pup needs. I know that dogs each have their own personalities and will accommodate care to fit what makes them comfortable. We watch only one dog at a time so your dog will have our undivided attention. I am a part-time teacher that is home by 11:00am. My husband is home in the morning. The rest of the day is spent in my art studio. In the evening I usually go for a long walk. Most weekends are spent at home relaxing with family. We have a cozy condo that is dog friendly and a sunny deck for warm naps. We live close to Alameda Creek Trail which is where we take frequent walks. I will try and follow the routine that your dog is used to as close as possible. If you're doggie is staying with us overnight, I will send lots of updates and daily pictures. We don't have any other pets or small children so, the home is quiet and calm. I only sit one dog at a time so your dog will receive our undivided attention while visiting.

About: Dogs make my heart happy, and so do cats! :) I loved the times that I got to spend and care for my beloved Moki who went to heaven in Dec. 2023. I miss her every single day. I work as a substitute teacher and painting instructor, which provides me with a flexible schedule to pursue my hobbies and interests. One of my passions in life is dogs. I volunteer with Pets in Need by participating in their Doggy Day Out program. Back in high school, I was voted Most Dependable, and I believe I still hold that title dear to heart whether it's with family, work, friends, and clients. I would do my best to make sure your furry best friend gets lots of pets, play, and potty breaks. :) My schedule is pretty flexible since I work as a substitute teacher and painting instructor. I can easily block off dates so that I can be available. In the summer time, I also work as a summer camp art counselor. I have updated my schedule with the dates that I’m available. :) I know what it's like to have someone reliable and trustworthy to care for your furry best friend. I know that you can depend on me because I will love and care for your pet as if she/he's my own.

“Jennifer was wonderful with our pups, and on short notice! She did all we asked during the drop in, and took the most beautiful pictures of our sweet babies. We’ll absolutely book her again ❤️”
