Pet Sitting Bella Vista

“Melina is great with all of our pets! She kept us updated and sent photos of all four pets for each drop in. My dog loves her and even the shyest cat comes out to see her during her visits.”

About: Hi! My name is Shivani and I am experienced animal sitter and walker for 10 plus years now! I have always been around and genuinely loved animals, especially dogs with all of my heart and soul! With my experience and background, let me help you feel secure leaving your beloved pet/family member for a period of time. I'm here to bond and love your animal, as much as you do, in your absence. Every animal has their own personalities and needs, and I make it my mission to find out all about them to make sure your pet is as happy and loved as possible! I will do everything in my power to work with you and ensure the best care for you loved ones! I'm ready to love your dogs! I am a TV and Film producer and Art Director who has a deep love for working with animals. I have a flexible schedule that I control and have long standing pet sitting clients that I’ve had for years. I love the time that I get to spend with your animals and build my schedule around your individual pets needs. Spending time to bond with your animals is very important to me! Getting to know your pet’s personality and individual needs is my highest priority I like to spend as much time with them as they will allow me and also give them the space they need.

“I was out of town & my husband got called into work on superbowl Sunday. Jennifer was able to come in and save the day, as per usual. She sends great updates and my puppy adores her! Thank you Jennifer for always being so good to my baby boy!”

“So lovely and patient with our nervous German Shepherd. Chloe did a meet and greet before her visits which was a wonderful way for our dog to meet her and made us a lot more comfortable. Would highly recommend!”

About: Hi, I’m Lynn! 👋 Nice to meet you :) __________________________________ If your dog loves fresh air, exploring new paths, and coming home completely tuckered out, they’re going to love hanging out with me. Or we can just take a stroll around the neighborhood, play with lots of toys, and snuggle up on the couch!☀️ __________________________________ I'm a passionate, patient, and friendly dog lover who believes every pup deserves a fun-filled day! I love meeting new furry friends and I am experienced with dogs of all shapes and sizes. Being a dog mom myself, I treat every pup like absolute royalty - gentle pets, belly rubs, lots of happy praise + treats, and maybe a little photoshoot if we have the time!🌸🌺✨ __________________________________ Safety is ALWAYS my top priority. I’m incredibly mindful of terrain, weather, and hydration, ensuring a tiny Chihuahua gets the same careful attention and safe handling as an enthusiastic German Shepherd. From dealing with the zoomies to offering patient guidance, I treat every dog like family!! :) __________________________________ When your pup is with me, you can expect a reliable schedule, plenty of updates, and a very happy, sleepy dog returned to your doorstep. 🧡🧡💚💚 ___________________ Let’s get your best friend out on their next great adventure! 🐾 🌳 🌲 🥾 🐕 • Monday through Friday: I am available & flexible morning, afternoon, or evening. This is the perfect time for an energetic mid-day break, a long late-afternoon trail walk, or late-day doggy daycare while you finish up your workday. __________________ • Weekends (Saturday & Sunday): I have open availability (unless stated otherwise)! My weekends are wide open for extended adventures, daycare, or flexible walking schedules. 🐾 How I Care for Your Dog I provide safe, reliable, and loving care tailored to your dog’s needs. Whether we’re out for a walk, enjoying daycare, or stopping by for a visit, my goal is to keep your pup happy, comfortable, active, and well cared for while you’re away. You’ll always receive updates and photos for peace of mind.

“Presley and Freya loved having Melissa take care of them! I arrived home from my trip yesterday with two pretty relaxed kitties, and a slew of new photos to add to my collection 😁 She was a great communicator, and left everything just as she found it.”

“Cynthia did two drop visits in one day with my sweet Edwyn pup. She kept me updated each step of the way and left my keys in the proper spot. I especially appreciated her photos and walk summaries. Thank you, Cynthia!”

“Emilia-Laura did a great job through and through! She communicated really well before and during the sit, and got along great with my cat. My kitty is pretty shy but from the meet and greet I could already tell they were vibing :) I came back from my trip to a happy cat and house in order! Thanks again Emilia-Laura!”

“Grace took care very well of Arietta. She was very communicative during my trip. She also vacuumed the litter on the floor. I would highly recommend Grace and will definitely rebook in the future.”

“Elyse is so on top of things. She asked me questions and did a great job of what I’m asking for. I would like to have her back to take care my cat next time.”

About: I have a pup named Frida who is a rescue and has taught me so much about patience and care. I’ve grown up with dogs and have helped sit for friends dogs. I am very observant and attentive of dog behaviors, personalities, and matching their energy. As a Rover user and dog mom I am very amenable to the level of care and love your pup may need 🌞 I’m currently a full-time student halfway into my Master’s program to be an Art Therapist. My program is online with a lot of flexibility for visits and walks-great for me and your pup! In a client’s home I am mindful of existing protocols and placements of items. This means knowing what treats can be given and when, where the leashes/toys go, enforcing established rules while keeping a mindful presence.

“Sophia took great care of our two cats for over a week. She was able to administer oral medication without any problems and was easy to communicate with while we were out of town. I would highly recommend her services!”

About: Animals have always been a big part of my life. I've cared for pets of all sizes: from large malamutes and energetic huskies to cats, rabbits, fish, and even turtles. I have experience with a wide variety of personalities, temperaments, and care needs, and I take pride in following your care instructions exactly as requested. If your pet requires a specialized diet, medication, extra patience, or simply their favorite play routine, I'll make sure they receive the attentive care they deserve. During visits, I'll provide plenty of attention and playtime, keep food and water fresh, clean litter boxes, tidy up any messes, and make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I work from home most days of the week and have a flexible schedule that allows me to take breaks throughout the day to make time for your pet. My goal is to keep your pet's routine as normal as possible and make them safe and reduce stress while you're away. I'll let them take the lead as we get to know each other.

“Dennis is amazing with my girls, he's our go-to person! Will always rebook with him”

About: I have been an animal lover all my life and have cared for cats, kittens, dogs, bunnies, hamsters, and rats all along the way! I approach all animals with gentle curiosity and patience, and have experience caretaking for animals with disabilities. I have a flexible schedule and work from home! I am able to drive to any location within 8 miles of Lake Merritt. I am not doing overnight visits at this time. I only offer care for pets in their home at the moment. However I am happy to take your pet on a walk around your neighborhood or mine! (I live by Lake Merritt)

To make sure your dog feels safe, happy, and loved when you are away. Since my husband and I both work from home, our schedules are flexible. This means your dog will have constant companionship throughout the day. A typical day includes: Outdoor playtime at various parks, 3 dedicated walks, and lots of snuggles. We love sending a daily photo and updates, so you can see how much fun your furry family member is having. We live in a large 2,000 sq ft apartment with lots of room for your pet to roam. Our neighborhood is very quiet and relaxed. Lots of families and very safe.

About: I’ve grown up with cats and kittens my whole life and continued adopting them as an adult — animals have always been at the heart of my home! I’ve raised and trained a puppy from 8 weeks old, cared for up to 3 medium-sized dogs at a time, and have experience housing and caring for rabbits, birds, and reptiles too. 🐶🐱🐰🦜🐸🦎 Your pet will be welcomed into a warm, loving home where they’ll be treated like family! I’m also a pet parent myself — my 1-year-old pup and 9-year-old cat are both incredibly friendly with people and other animals and absolutely love making new friends. They’re always excited to welcome new furry guests! 🐕🐈 I believe pet sitting is so much more than just filling a food bowl twice a day — it’s about being real company for your pet. Surrounded by cozy blankets, their favorite toys from home, and plenty of love, your pet will feel comfortable and right at ease from the moment they arrive. I’m happy to provide multiple daily walks and plenty of undivided attention throughout the day!
