House Sitting in Brackney

“Absolutely went above and beyond to make sure my pet was comfortable and had a wonderful time while I was away for the weekend. I appreciated all the photo and video updates as well.”

About: I have enjoyed helping my parents and neighbors with animal and house sitting over the years and managed anywhere from 1 - 2 independent pets up to 5 pets at a time (dogs, cats, chickens, rabbits, reptiles). I am currently a part-time student looking to extend my animal care experiences to pets in your home. I specialised in animal behavior while studying neuroscience at the Claremont Colleges and will be very attentive to your animals needs in my care. I also have experience administering topical/oral medications as scheduled. I am continuing my education part-time and available to help mostly afternoons. Please contact me 1-2 weeks in advance for HOUSE STAYS otherwise I am flexible to assist with regular potty breaks, walks, feeding, etc. with 1-2 days notice. When caring for animals in clients homes I will be sure to follow any set guidelines or recommendations provided to me. I enjoy meeting animals energy levels with exercise (walks, outdoor play), toys, training reinforcement, or simply good pets. I will be respectful of you and your animal's space to reduce stress and encourage normal/beneficial behaviors.

“Lara was an awesome dog sitter on short notice after other sitters cancelled late. She spent time to meet before and sent pics and updates during my weekend away. I recommend her highly if you want the best for your four legged friends.”

“Carolina was responsive, friendly, and left the house in great shape. She sent great photos and Mouse seemed happy and comfortable with her.”

“Grace was amazing. She came to meet me and Priya before my vacation, coordinated with another friend to be there when Priya was getting dropped off, was super responsive, and sent a ton of pictures. I'm confident Priya has a great time while I was out of town!!”

About: I’ve grown up surrounded by dogs of all sizes and personalities. From raising two pit bulls from puppies through their senior years to currently caring for my energetic husky, I have hands-on experience with all kinds of breeds. Since I was 14, I’ve been the go-to dog walker and sitter for neighbors, friends, and family—trusted to walk, feed, bathe, and even help train their pets. I’m comfortable giving medication, handling senior dogs with special needs, and making sure every pup feels loved and secure. Your dog will be in caring, patient, and experienced hands! I’m currently working an internship at Tesla in Palo Alto, CA, Monday through Friday from 9 to 5. My schedule is flexible because I split my time between working remotely and in the office. This allows me to provide midday walks, evening care, and lots of attention on weekends. I’m available for boarding, walks, and drop-in visits in the afternoons, evenings, and all weekend long. Your pup will always have someone attentive around! Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I understand how important it is for dogs to be in their own home, where they feel most relaxed and secure in their familiar environment. I keep your dog’s routine consistent, whether that means regular walks around the neighborhood, playtime, or simply quiet company. I’m attentive to each dog’s needs—whether they’re energetic or like their alone time—and I make sure they get plenty of love, attention, and gentle care. You can trust that your pup will be treated like family, happy and safe until you return. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your fur baby. I’m here to provide the same gentle, loving care I’d want for my own dogs. Can’t wait to meet your pup.

“Nora was absolutely fantastic! She stayed in our home for a week and took care of both our pup and home so well. We had a lot of specific requests and she went above and beyond meeting all of them. She was incredibly trustworthy and caring. She communicated frequently and sent lots of good update pics of our pup. I hope she will stay with our pup again in the future! If Nora is available, book her quick!”

About: I’ve been a pet sitter for a few years now. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, and puppies as young as 6 weeks old. I have a deep love for animals and want to start a career as a vet tech. For now, I’m looking to work as close to full time as possible to save up for school. My schedule is very open right now, and I’m available weekends and holidays. I prefer to do extended stays, and will give them priority as far as bookings go. I’m available to watch your pets in your home, but I cannot provide boarding services at this time. I’m happy to do some additional tasks while I’m there, such as watering plants and doing light cleaning.

“River is a great communicator, checks in regularly, and took great care with our home. Our pup was calm and tuckered out - signs that Emi had been on a long walk and had sufficient snuggles. We’ll gladly have River back the next time we need pet care!”

“Lisa was an amazing dog sitter and house sitter! She gave us daily updates and photos of our doggo. Seeing that she was with Fonsi throughout the day, playing and snuggling, put our hearts at ease while we were traveling. During the two weeks that we were gone Lisa helped water our plants and even called the city when there was an unexpected sewer problem. She really put her heart into caring for our doggy and our home. We were super lucky to have found her and will definitely be using her again!”

Annie L.

“David was fantastic with our dog while housesitting for us. He is very professional, attentive, and sent daily updates. He made sure he understood our dog's schedule, preferences, and personality traits during the initial meeting. We returned to a neat house and a very happy pup. I would certainly book him in the future!”

About: Hey! Glad to see you here! My name is Morgan, and while I’m new to Rover, I’m not new to animal care. You can see my past experience on the IG account I’m currently building @morgansnugglesyourdog 🐾 If you want someone who aims to understand your pets, respects their routines, is intentional, and takes a thoughtful, behavior-focused approach to care — welcome! I’m a calm, capable sitter who tailors care to your pet’s unique needs, energy level, and emotional comfort. Whether your dog is a mellow senior, a wild child in training, or just your average well-behaved snugglebug, I offer structure, enrichment, affection, and the kind of consistency pets thrive on. I believe all animals deserve to be heard and deserve intentional care and structure. ❌ Things I don’t do: • Dog parks • Chaotic group situations • Handing out treats “just because” • Pushing past an animal’s comfort zone • Ignoring or minimizing behavioral needs ✅ Things I do: • Personalized, temperament-based care • Adventures (if your pet is up for it!) • Daily enrichment and mental stimulation • Intentional structure and calm routines • Respecting your pet’s boundaries and setting healthy ones • All the snuggles (when invited!) I also have hands-on experience with cats, small animals (like guinea pigs and rats), reptiles, and even farm animals like pigs and ducks. If it has paws, claws, hooves, or scales — chances are, I’ve cared for it. When it’s a good fit, I love incorporating dogs into my daily life — whether that’s a nature walk, a car ride to town, or just relaxing outside. But I never take dogs to dog parks or chaotic spaces. If something feels too stimulating or simply isn’t right for your pet, we skip it — no pressure, no push. And if your pup is the stay-home-and-cuddle type? That works for me too. I always ask about behavior, routines, and preferences ahead of time and spend the first day or two getting a read on what your pet is capable of and comfortable with. My goal is to help every animal feel safe, respected, and genuinely cared for in a way that honors who they are. I work from home full time! I have several clients but the type of work allows me to be extremely flexible for your pets! I know while some pets can just hang out while I work, others may need more care, enrichment or a closer eye - I can and will accommodate accordingly. Just let me know what your pet needs ❤️ When sitting at your home I prefer to stick to the spaces your pets are most comfortable in or used to as well as stick to a similar routine. I find this helps with separation anxiety and any confusion the pets may have since their favorite human is gone! If possible, I like to take dogs for a longer walk on the first day to help us bond and help me learn how they behave. For other pets, this may look more like a longer playtime, enrichment activity, etc. I want to make sure they’re as comfortable as possible with me in their space so that first day is important to me!

“Aiyana did a great job caring for our dog and cats and fish while we were away for the holidays. Very thankful for her attention to detail and sharing photos and videos while we were away.”

About: I've worked at a Dog Boarding and Doggie Daycare Center in the past and have also owned and cared for 5 of my own dogs. I've cared for dogs of many breeds and love them all. My philosophy is that a physically and mentaly exercised dog is a happy dog. I currently work from home with a flexible schedule. I’m available to care for the dogs all day and ensure the pups get lots of exercise and attention. We are very active and enjoy taking the dogs to dog parks, hikes, walks around the block and playing with toys in the yard. We follow a consistent schedule that keep the pups busy! We normally start the day with walk and training, then breakfast and lots of play in the yard throughout the day. We try to go on adventures as much as possible too. Our evenings often include time on the couch with lots of pets before dinner and bed time. I send lots of photos of our day.

About: I have been a lifelong dog owner. I can care for a variety of pups from young and energetic to senior pups. I love to take my own dogs on my adventures throughout the Santa Cruz mountains from casual walks to long adventure runs and so I can accommodate whatever your dog needs. I also like to spend time training and practicing commands because dogs also like to be engaged mentally along with the physical. Of course love and affection through cuddles is always guaranteed and unlimited. I have lots of experienced with many different dog personalities and can accommodate them accordingly to make sure they are well cared for. I have a very flexible schedule that is mostly already based around my own pups so I am very much able to accommodate yours as well! I have availability to provide attentive, reliable care for your pets throughout the day and evening. I already incorporate activities like dog walking and trail running into my daily routine which means I can offer active dogs a great adventure while also being available for quiet cuddle and consistent care for all pets. In my home, I treat every guest like family. My home is a safe, dog-friendly environment with a fenced yard where they can play safely. We'll follow their regular feeding schedule and I'll make sure they get plenty of exercise with daily walks, running for high-energy dogs, and lots of mental stimulation. In the evenings, it's all about cuddles and relaxation on the couch, ensuring they feel comfortable and loved. When caring for pets in a client's home, my top priority is to maintain their familiar routine. I'll adhere strictly to their feeding schedule, walking routine, and any specific commands they know. My goal is to be a calm and reliable presence, providing consistent care and affection in their own environment. I'll also ensure your home is kept clean and secure, leaving it just as I found it.

“Amanda was super reliable and made it so I had peace of mind while away from home. She sent me pictures every day of my cats and I knew they were getting lots of attention and love!! She’s the best!!”

About: My husband and I love dogs.... when our beloved Yorkie died a few years ago and we retired early from city government, we decided to focus our love on caring for other people's dogs in their homes. We now have several on-going sit relationships in central California and are happy to have so many dogs in our lives that feel like grand babies to us! If you're interested in establishing an on-going relationship with us, to make your dog(s) feel as comfortable as possible when you have to leave town, hit us up! Our preference is to work with 1 or 2 older/more relaxed dogs, that can be left alone for at least 4 hours at a time. We lean towards being home bodies, but we enjoy going on walks/outtings, having play time and lots of snuggles. If we seem like a simpatico match to care for your pup, please reach out for our availability! We have a flexible schedule and can work around your needs/timing with plenty of notice. We enjoy exploring new areas and are happy to have your dogs show us all their favorite spots to hang out! Rather than upend your dog's routine on top of you being out of town, we will come to you! We are willing/able to handle any morning/evening routines (food/water, oral meds, walks, potty needs) and your dog can sleep with us if so inclined.

“Oleksandr was great! My 2 small dogs usually sleep with us at night, but when we were away, they instantly loved Oleksandr and slept with him every night. He even bought them a new toy to play fetch with them! I will definitely be asking him to come house sit for us again.”

“Sam is awesome! She always takes great care of our pets and house is always left in good order just the way we left it. So happy to have a reliable awesome pet sitter like her.”

“Bianca did a great job taking care of our older dog Buddy. He is blind and takes medication twice a day. He needs to be let out regularly for potty breaks, and she did everything we asked of her. Our house was left clean and Buddy was happy and well taken car of when we arrived home.”
