House Sitting Bivalve

“Matt thank you for all your help. I highly recommend Matt. He was very kind and wonderful with my dogs. I will use no one but Matt from now on.”

“This was Kat's first time sitting for our kitten Peanut, and she exceeded our expectations across the board. Communication was excellent — she shared regular updates and sent us genuinely fun photos that we loved getting throughout the trip. When we hit an unexpected schedule change, Kat was completely accommodating and made it a non-issue. The house was just as clean as we left it. She followed everything we asked, from the litter box routine to stripping the bed before we got back. Most importantly, Peanut was visibly happy and well-adjusted when we returned — you can always tell when a sitter has actually engaged with your pet, and she clearly had. Peanut was so comfortable with Kat that we were able to fully relax and enjoy our vacation. We will absolutely have her sit for Peanut again. Highly recommend.”

About: I grew up on a 500 acre farm in Sebastopol. I have always loved taking care of animals and have had cats and dogs as pets all my adult life. As a professional nanny and Family Assistant, I often care for my charges animals, taking them for walks, letting them in and out, throwing a ball around, taking them on little hikes or just playing at home. With the recent loss of both of my cats (at 17 and 18 years) I could really use some kitty or doggy love and can now make myself available for my neighbors near and far. I am available to come before and after work to check on Fido or Kiki and I am usually around on weekends as I am still very Covid conscious and do most things outdoors. I would love to take your sweetie on a hike. I am very conscious of putting my cats collars on before they go outside and make sure they are in at dark. I will follow any instructions that you provide and you can be confident that I will treat your pets and home with love and respect.

About: I have always been around pets, dogs, cats, hamsters and chicken! I am an animal lover that will take good care of your furry loved one’s. I work part time as a babysitter in the morning so I have free time in the afternoon . I’m also willing to stay overnight and weekends if needed. I offer company and playtime to the furry ones. I always make sure leashes and collars are properly fitted. Also, I make sure all doors are closed and locked.

“Ari was a lifesaver! He came to care for our dog last minute when another sitter canceled on us. He was so sweet to Lucy, and took excellent care of our home. He even sent pics of her while we were gone. We will definitely use Ari again soon!”

About: I have 10+ years of dog walking and animal sitting experience, including with Eat Bark Love and Walking the Dog, and I’ve also volunteered and worked with several animal protection organizations. Animal care fits naturally into my routine. I worked professionally as a dog walker/animal sitter for more than 10 years, so I’m accustomed to organizing my days around animals’ needs. When caring for animal companions, I follow their usual schedule closely, including feeding, walks, playtime, medication if needed, and plenty of companionship and attention. In a client’s home, I carefully follow each animal’s established routine and their guardian’s instructions for feeding, walks, playtime, medication, and bedtime. I keep doors and gates secure, maintain clean food, water, and litter areas, and treat the home with respect. I adjust care to each animal’s age, health, energy level, and personality, and provide regular updates and photos so their guardian knows they are safe and comfortable.

“Tania did a great job taking care of our senior pup who suffers from separation anxiety and doesn’t like to take her meds. Tania was prompt, easy to communicate with before and during her stay, sent lots of pictures, and left our house immaculate. We will definitely use her again.”

About: I have had pets most of my life since I was a small child. I have a deep bond with animals and love getting to know their individual personalities and having a great time playing together. I am currently working part time on my own schedule so I have a great deal flexibility to come play with your pets and provide them with my undivided attention! I provide care specifically based on each individual client’s requests and unique needs. Please let me know your preferences, needs and concerns. Thank you!

“Taylor is responsible for, kind, smart, and wonderful with dogs! We have a Blue Heeler mix who is picky about who he likes and he bonded with her immediately. She took him on the long walks that he needs and also gave him the love he needed to be happy and relaxed when we came home. Our home was left spotless and our dog was happy. What more could we ask for?! We will definitely engage her again without hesitation!”

“Pat stepped in and coordinated a smooth transition of care with my previous cat sitter when I was stranded and unable to return home in time. She went above and beyond to work with me to make sure my cat was cared for and not left alone, and offered extra time with my cat, support, and reassurance when I was panicked and stuck a second time at the airport. So grateful for her care, highly recommend!”

About: Sri Sharie is a long time animal lover, enthusiastic about the beauty that our animals share with us. I do some training, and I am an animal communicator 🙂🧚 I also delight in sharing timeless wisdom, natural remedies, and endless enthusiasm for all the animals... All creatures great and small. Holistic Health Professional for over 35 years, a Magical Genius in the Gene Keys system - my conscientious care and versatile tool kit are on offer throughout the Bay Area I am semi-retired from my professional practice as teacher of healing arts, and individual and couples therapist. I have a lot of experience with service animals. I love to connect the dots in terms of the stresses that we are experiencing in our own bodies and then how our animals respond, and sometimes they carry our burdens. I love to support clearing and balancing for everybody's health! Since my journey in the last decade, which I call my radical sabbatical, I am ever grateful to be connecting differently with people rather than simply as a therapist. We are all in this together, and love abounds! I grew up with dogs, and more dogs. We had German shepherds and a Mastiff when I was very young, later my mother raised Border Collies, and my sister raised Jack Russells. I do love to help train dogs when they need it, it is ever so important, and help the owners get in the best groove with their relationship to their precious companions... My mother also had a Maine Coon cat and a small dog that were best friends and I have to say this is my favorite thing ever... In the '70s I hitchhiked across the country with a kitten tucked in my parka...

“Chiara was absolutely awesome! She exceeded my expectations and took such good care of ember and bjoern! She took the dog on a lot of fun adventures and was able to administer the cat’s medicine, which isn’t the easiest! She sent multiple updates daily which is so appreciated. She also left the house in great condition. Will definitely hire again!”

About: I’ve cared for my family friends' dogs while they were away, which helped me understand the importance of building trust with both pets and owners. I am currently enrolled in school on weekends and trade school in evening. I and available during weekday mornings and afternoons to provide reliable dog sitting services. My cats are indoor-only, and my dog enjoys a large backyard for play. Due to my cats' territorial nature, it might be challenging to accommodate other animals in my home.

While you’re away, I’ll keep your pets happy and comfortable in their familiar environment, stick to their normal routines, provide plenty of love and exercise, and make sure your home stays safe and tidy. You can relax knowing your beloved companions are in trustworthy, caring hands!

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life, but I’ve had experience taking care of dogs on a dairy farm which got a little rowdy at times. I’m currently starting a job that will hopefully be full-time But might be a little shaky for a couple months so I’ll have a lot of free time to walk your dogs! I have a fenced yard and two dogs that are friendly for your puppy dog to play with. And if they just need a walk I will make sure that that puppy will have the best sleep after.

“Clare was great as always. Our little princess absolutely loves her, they have great cuddle and play time and Clare always sends us pictures while we're away. She has both come by for checkins and also stayed with our pup while we were away and she always leaves the house in great order and just how we left it. She's professional and a great caretaker for our dog. We love her and she's always our go to dog sitter! ”
