Pet Sitting & Drop Ins in Barron Park, Palo Alto

“I can’t recommend Adriana enough! She took care of my cats for 4 days and truly went above and beyond in every way. From the moment we met, I could tell she genuinely cares for animals, my kitties Momo and Mimi felt right at home with her. She made sure they were well fed, kept the litter box spotless, and spent quality time playing and cuddling with them, it was clear they were happy, relaxed, and comfortable the whole time. Adriana was also super responsive and kept me updated with messages and photos, which gave me total peace of mind while I was away. She’s kind, reliable, and just an all-around wonderful person and sitter. I’m so grateful to have found someone I trust completely with my fur babies. I’ll definitely be booking Adriana again, my cats can’t wait to see her next time! 🐱❤️”

“Kevin is accommodating, communicates clearly, sent updates throughout the service period and left me a note on how the visit went with my dog. I felt completely safe leaving my dog in Kevin’s care, and trusted him in my home. I’ll rebook him in the future.”

“Excellent sitter, clearly cared for the boys beyond the requirements. He got an inconsistent eater to eat, cleaned up after one that micturated on a rug, and even played music for them. The one that's generally friendly loved him, and the one that's generally unfriendly tolerated him right off the bat which is impressive.”

“Our cat is very quirky and particular. But Kellie took great notes and followed through with all of his weird needs. She provided fantastic care.”

Jon D.

“Trina went above and beyond taking care of our little dog and keeping him company. We are so glad to have found her and will definitely try to have her again!”

I can accommodate special needs for extra special dogs. On request, I could work on leash training.

“Angie was our ideal cat sitter taking care of Biscuit and Bagel for 3 days. She sent great updates and did exactly what was asked of her. We came home to two very happy and well taken care of kittens. Would certainly love to book her again for future trips!!”

About: I've taken care of dogs for 35+ years. My dogs have lived to 16-17 years, so I am familiar with pill schedules and tailored meal plans. I moved for work and secured dog-friendly housing (we're a package deal). Currently, we go on daily walks and outdoor adventures. I have safe spaces so the dog can "take a break", but snuggles are always available. My daily routine ensures your dog will go for a walk every day. Your dog's walks will include time to sniff and explore. I will respect your dog's wish/desire to be pet and cuddled. For example, my dog's morning routine includes nose to tail body rubs and a kiss on top of the head. However, that's the end of "snuggling, petting, cuddling" for the day. :-D I have a fenced yard for my dog that he has access to when needs it. He has his crate that he uses for naps or just to hang out in a comfy spot.

“Jasmine is took great care of our dog. We are very happy with her!”

About: When it comes to dogs, I've got experience with every stage of life—from the energy of a bouncing puppy learning its first commands to the gentle, watchful care of senior dogs who need extra comfort and support. My secret? I tune in to each dog's unique personality and needs. I’m that person who will sit with a shy pup until they feel safe, or go on an extra-long walk for high-energy dogs who need to burn off steam. And if you've got a clever escape artist or a curious troublemaker, I’m not afraid to get creative! I’ve trained dogs to master basic commands, helped socialize pups for better behavior, and used enrichment activities to keep clever minds active and engaged. 🦴 My goal is to leave every dog not only happier but a bit wiser (or at least more tired!) than when we started. Simply put, I’m not just a dog sitter. I’m the friend who’ll show up with treats, patience, and a heart dedicated to making each visit as enriching as it is fun. Because to me, every pup is family. 🐾 Pet care is woven right into my everyday life, making it easy for me to provide attention and love throughout the week! With my flexible schedule, your furry friend will rarely be left alone and can enjoy a homey, cozy atmosphere all day long. I’m in school, but my afternoons are wide open for playtime, walks, and one-on-one attention. 🐕 Once I'm home, I focus fully on their needs—whether it’s burning off some energy with a game of fetch, a walk around the neighborhood, or simply some cuddle time on the couch. Weekends? Even better! I have all the time in the world to make sure your pup feels right at home. With my adaptable schedule and dog-friendly setup, you can count on a reliable, warm environment that fits naturally into my routine, keeping your pet safe, happy, and thoroughly entertained! 🐾 Your dog's safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. Living in the Stanford dorms, I’ve created a pet-friendly space where dogs can feel right at home, even in a new environment. My dorm is cozy and inviting, with enough space for your pet to relax, play, or curl up for a nap. 🐶💼 Stanford’s campus is filled with beautiful common areas and plenty of green spaces, perfect for a daily dose of exercise and fresh air. Whether it’s a peaceful walk through tree-lined paths or a playful romp on a nearby lawn, your dog will have a chance to explore and enjoy the outdoors in a safe, controlled way. 🏞️ I’m mindful of routines and safety practices, so your pup will always have the structure they need to feel secure. Whether it’s managing mealtimes, sticking to established commands, or simply offering reassuring attention, I make sure every dog feels right at home. You can trust that your pet will not only be safe but will also be showered with all the love and care they deserve. 🐾

“Kimberly is Emmy's favorite! She is super responsible and communicative, goes above and beyond, treats my home as her own, and sends me adorable pictures of Emmy. I've even known her to give Emmy gifts (with my permission, of course)!! I couldn't be happier!”

“Melissa was great. Helped out on short notice after another Catsitter backed out the day before my trip. Very friendly and communicative.”

About: I’ve been taking care of animals and have had pets since I was born, and love spending time with them! I recently graduated from college and am excited to care for some cute dogs, cats, or any other animal that needs some love. I’m currently working part time, so my schedule is very flexible and I can come during the week or weekend! I am willing to discuss timing and what works best for you. I have a fenced yard and am 2 blocks from a dog park. I am also very happy to walk them or just hang with them at home.

About: I’ve cared for dogs of all ages and sizes for over 5 years, including my own pup and those of friends and family. I’m a pre-med college student who’s super responsible, active, and attentive to pets’ routines and needs. Whether it’s playing fetch, going on long walks, or keeping shy dogs comfortable, I always try to meet each pet where they are. What sets me apart is my calm, patient energy and love for animals. I have experience with high-energy breeds, older dogs needing gentler care, and dogs with special diets. I’ll treat your pet like family—because I know how much they mean to you. As a college student on summer break, I have a flexible schedule and can easily adapt to morning, midday, or evening visits. I make it a priority to stick to each pet’s routine, whether that’s regular walks, playtime, feeding, or medication, and I always build my day around making sure they feel safe and cared for. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make it my priority to maintain the pet’s usual routine to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I follow all instructions closely—whether it’s feeding schedules, walk times, play preferences, or any medications. I always make sure pets have fresh water, a clean space, and plenty of attention. I also respect the client’s home by keeping things neat and being mindful of boundaries. Whether it’s a short visit or extended care, I treat each home and pet as if they were my own.

About: Working from home full time. I grew up with small dogs and now a dog owner for a 3 years old Pomeraian. I love being around with dogs. I have experience taking care of pups of all ages. I work from home full time so I can surely give lots of attention and care for your babies. I'm looking forward to meeting your fur babies. I can accommodate specific potty or walk schedules your dog have. I just need you to tell me in advance. I can only accommodate small to mid-size dogs since I live in an apartment. We have large green lawns (perfect for potty breaks and walks) in our apartment complex.

“Dog Sitter Review: Exceptional Care and Attention! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I recently had the pleasure of using John for the second time, and once again, he exceeded all my expectations! This time, he took care of not just my resident dog but also my foster puppy, and I couldn't be more grateful for his dedication and compassion. It was clear that John has a genuine love for animals. He provided both dogs with plenty of attention, playtime, and care, ensuring they felt comfortable and happy during my absence. His ability to manage the needs of both my resident dog and a young, energetic puppy was impressive, and it gave me peace of mind knowing they were in such capable hands. What truly stood out this time was the extra effort he put into making my home feel welcoming upon my return. Not only did he take great care of my dogs, but he also went above and beyond by cleaning my apartment and even disposing of my trash! It’s those little touches that show how much he cares about his clients and their homes. I cannot recommend John enough! His professionalism, attentiveness, and kindness make him an outstanding choice for pet care. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your pets like family and ensure your home is well taken care of, look no further. I will definitely be using his services again in the future! Thank you,John, for all that you do!”
