House Sitting Bivalve

“Kat was such an amazing dog sitter to our senior dog Maui. She also took incredible care of our home leaving it clean and in perfect condition. She was super responsive to all communication and gave us updates during our time away. Our dog, who is typically very shy and skittish, loved Kat and felt very comfortable with her. Our dog went on walks and left the house which she typically never does with anyone but us. We plan on using Kat again soon and would highly recommend her!”

“Alisha was a fantastic cat sitter/house sitter while I was away! She was very communicative about my two shy cats and made sure that they were well taken care of while also giving them their distance and letting them warm up to her. She is so kind and personable, as well. I’ll absolutely try to book with Alisha again in the future!”

About: I’ve always loved animals and have experience caring for a variety of pets. I currently have a 19-year-old Sulcata tortoise and a dwarf hamster, and I previously had two cats of my own. I’ve also done dog walking and pet sitting for two large Golden doodles, so I’m comfortable caring for dogs of different sizes and personalities. I am responsible and attentive to each pet’s individual needs. I will help with walks, feeding, playtime, and check-ins while maintaining your pet’s usual routine. I’ll also keep your home and any areas I use clean, so everything is in order when you get home. I’ll send photo updates throughout my visits so you know how your pet is doing! I work as an on-call nurse, so my schedule is pretty flexible. I can usually work pet sitting and dog walking into my week and am happy to coordinate with you to find a time that works! When I’m caring for your pets in your home, I’ll walk and play with dogs, and keep cats fed with fresh water and clean litter boxes, and will give them lots of company. I’ll keep your home clean and send photos and updates so you know how they’re doing while you’re away!

About: Hi! I’m a dedicated animal lover with two cats of my own, and I absolutely adore caring for pets of all kinds. Whether you have energetic dogs that need daily walks and playtime, independent kitties who want some extra snuggles, or any other furry (or scaly!) friends, I’m experienced and confident giving them the attentive, affectionate care they deserve. 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! I work from home with a flexible schedule, so I’m highly available for drop-ins, overnight stays, and house sitting whenever you need me. Your pets will always receive prompt and attentive care! I prioritize your pets’ safety and well-being above all else. In your home, I follow your exact instructions and routines to the letter — from feeding schedules and medication to favorite toys and walk routes. I’m a responsible, non-smoker with a clean background, and I treat your space with the same care as my own.

About: I’ll treat you, your pet(s), and your space with the same respect I would want my pets and space treated. I’ve been helping family and friends with pet care for over 20 years with some uncertified training where needed (mostly leash control and recall with excited doggos). I’m currently between jobs, and my schedule is wide open. I’m available for same day bookings, and happy to schedule things out for recurring service if that’s a good fit. I will treat your home with the same respect that I would want my home treated with. I will follow the instructions that are given without improvising.

“Colin has watched GG at our home twice now, and we know he loves her. He sends great pictures where she always looks happy, and sends us updates. He is sweet, responsible, and responsive! He takes good care of my baby and home. Thank you Colin!”

About: Hello! My name is Lyanne and I have been in the bay area for 7 years. I am currently developing ocean literacy curriculum for National Geographic with a flexible schedule which allows for me to be available as needed for your pet care needs. Attention to detail and communication skills are very important to me. I have always been an animal lover and have grown up with dogs my entire life. I have extensive experience with senior dogs, administering medication, and I understand the patience it takes to work with fearful/timid dogs. While caring for your dog I will send updates via text messages with pictures to ease your mind and let you know that your pet is in the best care possible. I have cat sat for the past 3 years through word of mouth and love creating deep bonds with the animals I care for. Long walks or fun play, keeping their schedules regular is my goal. If you are looking for someone who is trust worthy, caring and responsible then look no further. Please contact me today for your petsitting needs. You will not be disappointed! I will tend to your pet throughout the day since this is my time off and I would not be working. This means, early morning wake up, 30 minutes to an hour walk, 30 minute rest, feeding, followed by relaxation and play until noon. At around noon, another walk (30 minute) and/or play or relaxing depending on energy level of the dog and finally evening, another walk and/or play. If you have a yard, there would be intermittent outdoor time throughout the day, especially as some dogs love to sunbathe, smell flowers, or chase lizards. Basically, I will tend to their needs and make them feel as comfortable as they could be without their owners around. I can take your pet on walks 2-3 times a day (less or more if you would like) and tend to their needs. Since I will be doing this during my time off, I will mostly be home with the dogs (at most 2-3 hours away total doing groceries or going to gym). I can crate your dog if needed, but they will mostly be with me. If there are parks around, I will gladly take them there.

I have over 30 years of experience with a variety of different pets (dogs, cats, gerbils, birds, reptiles, livestock, wild and domestic) due to the fact that I have owned so many over the years, assisted others with their animals, and also rescued many. I pay attention to detail, understand my limitation, recognize different verbal and body language, and communicate well with pets and their parents. I am reliable, flexible, and have some extra time now that my children are grown. I like to care for pets according to their normal routine so let’s talk about it.

“Mallorie came and took care of my Bangal kitten , who is still a lot of work. He is rowdy and busy. She did an amazing job keeping me in the loop at all times. She is thoughtful, caring , clean and organized. I was gone for 2 weeks and I felt so good knowing she and her partner where there with Cash. I would totally recommend her to anyone who is looking for a sitter. My house was spotless when I came home. Thank you Mallorie and Sofia.”

About: I grew up surrounded by dogs of all sizes and have volunteered at shelters and adoption events like Rocket Dog Rescue and Pets Lifeline since I was a kid. Through this rescue work, I am experienced in safe new dog introductions and behavioral de-escalation. I adopted my current dog at an event I was working and raised her as my emotional support animal on my busy college campus, which taught me how to keep pets grounded in stimulating environments. She is fantastic with small dogs, so if your little ones stay with us, they will have a friendly companion. Whether you have a big breed, a timid rescue, or an independent cat, I am dedicated to providing a safe, comfortable, and loving environment for them while you are away. I just finished my masters program so I currently have a highly flexible schedule, meaning I can dedicate plenty of time and attention to your pets throughout the day. My weekends are sometimes eventful, but my weeks are free for some furry love! I live in a cozy condo in Sonoma with my dog. While I don't have a private yard, I have a beautiful porch perfect for afternoon sunbathing. Safety is my top priority, so dogs are only ever allowed on the porch when I am home and actively supervising them. To make up for the lack of a yard, I go on frequent adventures! My dog and I regularly visit the lovely park just around the corner to run and search for lizards, and we love walking the perimeter of the Sonoma Square for people watching.

“I'm very impressed with the Sophia and the care she gave my pets while sitting. I will definitely be using her again. She watched over my cat Riley and my dog Lia. They both warmed up to her quickly. My dog does not normally do that. After the first night Lia warmed up to her and they became friends. Sophia always stayed in touch and sent plenty of photos for me to see how they were doing. She left my house clean and neat. I highly recomend Sophia to anyone who is looking for a conifdent, respectful, caring pet sitter.”

“Linett took great care of our dogs while we were out of town. We have two strong and energetic bully breeds and they definitely got to have lots of adventures and snuggles with her. She was very communicative and shared photos and videos of the doggos while we were gone.”

About: I adopted a cat in 2021 and I have previously lived with housemates who have had three cats and two dogs. I miss having a dog in the home so I would love to spend time with and take care of yours! I am working from home 5 days a week, and therefore have a flexible schedule. I’ve worked with breeds of all different shapes and sizes and would be happy to work with your dog as well! In your home, I am respectful of your property and surroundings and can follow all instructions left! I work from home full-time so am available to help as needed! My schedule is flexible. Please don’t hesitate to reach out if you have any questions. Your dog's home is mine, please let me know if there are any specific needs for your pup and I can accommodate. I am always watching to make sure your pup is safe.

About: I have experience caring for and walking my family and friends’ dogs for 10 years. I have experience with reactive dogs. I understand that every dog is unique and that each dog has different needs. I am familiar with dog CPR. I am no stranger to administering medication to dogs. I am free after 4pm on Monday-Friday. On weekends I am free from 7am-9pm. If needed, we can arrange earlier or later appointment times. Thanks! I can stop by at your home to check in on your furry friend(s) and make sure that they have plenty of food and water in their bowls, as well as give them ample time to go to the bathroom prior to completing the check in. I can provide 30 min-1 hour walks, or stimulate/play with your dog(s) for 30 min-1 hour in the safety of your home yard or nearby dog park.

About: I have over a decade of petsitting experience. My first priority will always be the wellbeing of your pets and home. I love meeting and winning over new animals. I am here to help. I left Omaha, Ne in 2020 for seasonal position with the NPS at Yosemite. That work took me to Charleston then Acadia the following summers. I settled in Asheville for 2 1/2 years before becoming a nomadic petsitter. I feel fortunate and love getting to meet new people and their pets, along with exploring all the corners of our country. I think I am pretty good at this, but am always learning. I have experience with all types of dogs and cats as well as fresh and salt water fish tanks, outdoor fish ponds, and caring for chickens and ducks. I’d love to keep expanding that experience. It is my aim to be the emotional support for your pets while you’re away, and to do my best to maintain their existing routines. I hope to hear from you. Thanks. I am fortunate enough to be semi-nomadic, with a very flexible living situation. I can go anywhere within reason, with enough notice. I love animals, and I love exploring. I follow any instructions or guidelines set out by the pet owner. I also employ common sense. If an animal needs space, they get space. If an animal wants to come along with me, they can- following the pet owner’s rules.

About: I’m a loving, reliable, and attentive pet caregiver who treats every pet as if they were my own. I understand that every animal has a unique personality, routine, and comfort level, so I take the time to provide personalized care in a calm and welcoming environment. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, cuddles, feeding, medication, or simply a little extra companionship, I’m happy to help. I care for both cats and dogs and always prioritize their safety, happiness, and well-being. My goal is for every pet to feel right at home and for every owner to have complete peace of mind while they’re away. 🐾❤️ Working part-time allows me a flexible schedule with plenty of dedicated availability to keep your cats engaged, pampered, and never feeling lonely while you are away. I provide in-home care directly at your place, ensuring your cats stay comfortable in their familiar environment. My visits focus entirely on their safety, security, and routine: * Home Security: I ensure all windows, doors, and balcony access remain securely closed and latched during every visit. * Safe Environment: I check for and remove any potential hazards, keeping toxic plants, stray items, and human food securely out of reach. * Clean & Tidy Maintenance: I keep feeding areas hygienic, refresh water daily, and meticulously maintain the litter boxes to keep your cat's space clean and stress-free. * Routine & Monitoring: I strictly follow your feeding schedules, keep a close eye on their health and behavior, and handle any required medications with care. * Peace of Mind: You receive reliable, detailed updates and photos after every visit so you always know your home and pets are safe.

“Dorothy was amazing! My dogs were happy while we were gone and we got some pretty incredible photos of our girls. We asked Dorothy to do a little extra and she did. We will definitely be calling Dorothy soon! We cannot recommend her enough!”
