Pet Sitting Bancroft

“Indie was amazing! She took great care of our cat, Teddy, and he absolutely loved her. She sent us wonderful photos and even went above and beyond by taking out the trash and tidying up, things we didn’t ask for but really appreciated. We came home to a very happy cat and would absolutely book with Indie again!”

“Agne did such a wonderful job taking care of my 2 kitties. Although she didn’t have the opportunity to see too much of them since they like to remain hidden, she made sure they were well cared for. She also had to do some ant combat. I highly recommend her for your upcoming cat care. I will be referring her to my cat lady friends.”

Nancy J.

“Stephanie was incredible. She did a great job with drop-in visits to care for our two cats, Cleo & Bubba. She is very knowledgeable about and clearly loves cats. We are so appreciative that Stephanie went above and beyond by skillfully dealing with our significant ant invasion while we were gone.”

“Julia has been amazing! She went above and beyond while taking care of my cats. She made sure they were loved and she also helped give one of my cats medication while I was gone, but I never expected her to clean! She even vacuumed and cleaned! I cannot thank her enough for taking such good care of my cats and my house!”

Cassie C.

“Emily has been walking our dog for a few months now and also just did some drop in visits with our cat. Our pets are anxious and Emily is amazing with them. She is very thoughtful, thorough, patient, and communicative. Couldn’t ask for more!”

Jessica M.

“Kat is great with Amos. She is great with his daily meds and checking in after her visits. Amos also loves the attention and ball play, and I am certain that Amos looks forward to seeing her again. Kat helps us feel at ease while we are away.”

“Taylor was a wonderful sitter for my cat. He warmed up to her right away, even though he is typically very shy. I truly appreciated the kindness and care she showed toward both him and me. Taylor provided wonderful photos and detailed Rover Cards throughout each visit, which was especially reassuring for me. She also handled his slightly complicated meal preparation with ease and demonstrated excellent attention to detail. I look forward to working with Taylor again in the future and would absolutely recommend her cat sitting services. Thank you again for everything, you made it so much easier for me to relax and enjoy my time away knowing he was in good hands!”

About: Every walk is a new experience for a dog, even if it's in familiar territory, and I enjoy helping a dog to have a great one. I have taken care of dogs for family and friends for 30+ years and walked them in a professional sense for five. A few of the settings I've enjoyed with dogs are parks, beaches, forests, downtowns, and suburban areas. For most of the year, I am available: Monday morning & evening; Tuesday morning & evening; Wednesday thru Friday mornings only; Saturday most of day; Sunday all day. In a client's home, I will follow the directions of the pet parent and leave it as I found it, as well as making sure the property is secure.

“Kamila was great and super helpful when we needed a sitter for our two cats. Communicated well and always arrived on time. Both cats were happy & healthy when we got home and even my cat that’s shy with strangers quickly warmed up to her. Would definitely book again in the future!”

“Courtney is great! Reliable and loves dogs. Good communication throughout the process. Had to administer insulin 2x/day and antibiotics 2x/day and it was no problem. Made me feel comfortable going away knowing my pets would be well taken care of.”

About: Hi! I'm Mathias, dog dad to two Jack Russells, Baco and Biella. I've been dog sitting and house sitting for family and friends since my teens, including a three week stay last summer. I keep pet care to weekends so your pup gets my full attention: overnight stays Friday and Saturday nights, plus walks and drop-ins all day Saturday and Sunday. Expect photo updates throughout the day, your dog's routine followed how you want it to be, and your home left exactly the way you trusted it to me. I keep pet care to weekends so I can give it my full attention. I'm available for overnight house-sitting stays Friday and Saturday nights, and open all day Saturday and Sunday for walks and drop-in visits. That means your pup gets someone fully present! When I stay at your home, I treat it like my own: I respect your space and stick closely to your dog's routine, from feeding times and walks to meds. Before I leave, I'll tidy up your home, bring in mail and packages, take out the trash, etc. So you come home to a happy dog and a house exactly as you left it.

“My dog has been in heaven. Loves the attention and caring treatmebt”

“We have booked Tatiana multiple times to care for our cat while we are away and we can't recommend her highly enough!! In fact, I think our cat is bummed when we come home because she doesn't get to see Tatiana 😆”

Maryann B.

“We are so grateful to have found Susan! She was amazingly reliable and sent the best pictures of our pup so we were always kept up to speed on what was happening back home when we were out of town!”

About: Hi! I’m Efraim, a lifelong dog lover based in Walnut Creek. I’ve cared for everything from tiny Papillons, Maltese and Shih Tzus to large breeds like German Shepherds, Belgian Malinois, Swiss Shepherds and Golden Retrievers. I’m equally comfortable with puppies, seniors, and dogs with special needs or behavioral challenges. I live locally and prioritize clients close to home for reliable service and minimal travel time. I offer walks, drop-ins, multi-dog walks, overnight house-sitting, and transport services — as an experienced professional driver, I can safely transport pets (or owners and pets together) to vet appointments, groomers, or airports. What I Offer: • Dependable walks and drop-ins 7 days a week • Multi-dog or single-dog walks for any size breed • Overnight stays / house-sitting with respect for your home and routine • Pet transport (airport runs, vet visits, errands) • Clear updates with photos and Rover cards • Special focus on busy professionals and seniors needing regular help Why Choose Me: • Local to Walnut Creek so can quick, reliable response in the area • Experienced across all sizes and ages of dogs • Professional driver — safe transport available • Certified in Pet First Aid & CPR (basic) with advanced training underway • Deep family roots in the area and strong personal references I would be happy to meet you and your pet for a free Meet & Greet to discuss your needs and discuss a schedule that keeps your dog healthy and happy. Availability: 7 days a week (morning through early evening) Service Area: Walnut Creek and nearby neighborhoods Intro Pricing: Half-hour Walks $20–22 · Extended Walks $30–35 · Drop-Ins $15–18 · Overnights $65–85 Contact me through Rover to schedule your Meet & Greet today! I have just joined Rover and am taking on new clients from 5:00am to 7:00pm, and I am generally available 7 days a week. I welcome clients with a regular repeating schedule, short notice requests, and periodic "substitute pet care" needs when your regular walker or sitter is unavailable. Safety is always my number one concern. Let's review all of your pet's special needs and requirements together and develop a plan that works best for them and for you. I have many strong local personal references I can provide. For walks, I invite you to track my location (through my mobile phone) so you know where your pet is at all times. If you are looking for a pet-sitter at your home, my references will assure you that I will treat your home with care and respect — and your pets with loving attention. For overnight sits, I bring my own inflatable mattress and linens so yours remain untouched.

About: Dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember, and I have years of hands on experience caring for dogs. I own and participate in IGP sport (Schutzhund). I provide calm and reliable care. My goal is for every pet to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away, and for every owner to have complete peace of mind. Pet care is a big part of my daily routine. I have three dogs, so I’m very comfortable with consistent schedules, feeding, exercise, training, enrichment, and keeping a clean and organized environment. I prioritize their physical and mental well-being every day, with dedicated time for walks, training, play, and individual attention. I also have experience caring for other dogs through my home-based boarding business, so I’m comfortable managing different routines, personalities, and care needs while maintaining a safe, structured environment. I provide a safe, structured, and individualized approach to pet care. In my home, I keep dogs separated from my own pets as needed, follow their normal feeding and medication routines, and provide regular potty breaks, walks, play, and one-on-one attention. I do not use unsupervised group play. When caring for a client’s pet, I follow their instructions closely and maintain their usual routine as much as possible. I’m attentive to behavior, comfort, safety, and any changes in appetite, energy, or bathroom habits, and I communicate with the owner throughout the stay so they know how their pet is doing.

About: We have a busy, loving home with 3 kids, one cat, & two dogs. If your dog loves to be with a busy family, we're the right place for you. I have many years of pet care experience including veterinary care and dog training experience (specifically, I've trained my own dogs through the Petsmart dog training program and passed the Canine Good Citizen test). I'm very comfortable around all types of dogs and animals. I've always treated my pets as part of our family and would always treat any animal in my care with the same devotion. We have three kids (ages 14-16) and they are all used to animals and they are very caring and love to play with all the dogs when they come home from school. The cats can easily avoid the dogs if they want to as they have their own outdoor catio and room. We keep our air conditioner on for our dog already during hot days so any dogs with thick fur will feel very comfortable. There's no carpet in our house so potty issues are easier to manage as well. I work from home, so other than errands or short outings the dogs have someone home with them nearly all the time. We have a gated kitchen so dogs can be separated if needed. We have a large fenced yard with a covered patio and when it’s too hot to be outside, the dogs are in the air conditioned house with us.

“Rachael was punctual, great with communication, and took cute photos of our boys. She seems to have a lot of experience and wasn't intimidated by our younger dog that can be a handful. We look forward to having her come again!”

About: I'm a retired officer, background-checked through Rover, and have more than 10 years of experience caring for my own dogs as well as friends', family members', and clients' pets. Throughout my career and personal life, responsibility, trustworthiness, and attention to detail have always been important to me, and I bring those same qualities to every pet I care for. In 2016, I adopted Barney the Shih Tzu, followed by Jack in 2019. Both were estimated to be about four years old at the time. In 2025, Jack passed away from bone cancer, giving me firsthand experience caring for a senior dog with significant medical needs. In 2022, I rescued Penny, the white pup in my profile photo. Certifications & Experience • Cat & Dog First Aid (American Red Cross) • Experience administering oral medications • Experience caring for senior pets and pets with special needs • Experience caring for dogs and cats of various ages, sizes, and temperaments, including a large Rottweiler I believe every pet deserves patience, kindness, consistency, and individualized care. Whether your pet is energetic and playful, senior and slower-paced, or simply happiest sticking to a familiar routine, my goal is to provide dependable care while helping them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine, and I'm home much of the time. This allows me to provide regular companionship, potty breaks, feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and supervision throughout the day. Because I intentionally limit the number of pets I care for at one time, I am able to provide a more personalized level of attention and maintain a calmer environment for the pets in my care. Whether caring for pets in my home or in a client's home, I strive to maintain their normal routine as closely as possible. Consistency helps pets feel comfortable, secure, and relaxed while their owners are away. My schedule is generally flexible, allowing me to accommodate a variety of care needs, including daycare, overnight care, drop-in visits, and pet sitting in a client's home. Pick-up and drop-off service may be available depending on distance and scheduling. My dogs are part of the family and spend much of their time relaxing near us, on the furniture, or curled up on a lap. Visiting pets are treated with the same level of care, attention, and companionship while in my home. Dogs are welcome on furniture unless owners request otherwise. I intentionally limit the number of guest dogs I accept at one time to help create a calm, safe, and low-stress environment. This allows me to provide close supervision and a more personalized experience than many high-volume pet care settings. If you prefer your dog to be crated for sleeping, feeding, or when unattended, I'm happy to accommodate as long as a crate is provided. Visiting dogs should be reasonably housebroken, with exceptions considered on a case-by-case basis for puppies and special circumstances. Meet-and-greets are strongly preferred whenever possible before services begin. They allow me to learn about your pet's personality, needs, and comfort level while helping determine whether my home and care style are a good fit. When caring for pets in a client's home, I respect both the pet's routine and the owner's home, providing dependable care, companionship, exercise, and attentive supervision. I believe every pet deserves patience, kindness, consistency, and respect. My goal is to provide a safe, comfortable environment where pets can feel relaxed, secure, and well cared for while their owners are away.
