Cat Sitting Brookshire

“Ayla is professional and friendly and definitely loves animals. This was the first time we have ever used a sitting service and I am glad we chose Ayla. We will be using her again. Thank you, Ayla.”

“My cats warmed right up to Demi! It was a great peace of mind having her stay in my home with them so they wouldn't be bored or lonely with an empty house while I was away on a weekend trip. Demi was communicative and sent frequent updates and pictures, which I really appreciated. I will definitely be booking with her again!”

About: I have a 70-pound dog who is 6 years old. She tore both of her cranial cruciate ligaments (CCL), and I took care of her when she was unable to walk during her surgery recovery. I am very comfortable with walking dogs (even large ones!), using firm but gentle commands, brushing their teeth and fur, and cleaning up after them. I am also working as a part-time Veterinary/Kennel Assistant, and through this role, I have learned to measure and record canine vitals (weight, temperature, heart rate, and respiratory rate); safely restrain and position dogs during vaccines, blood draws, and ultrasounds; observe canine behavior and monitor for blood pressure measurements and fluid therapy; and more! I have a very flexible schedule and I’m currently able to work most weekdays at any hour! I can adjust to whatever works best for you and your fur babies :) My primary goal is to provide a safe, nurturing, and fun environment for your pets! I am detail-oriented, responsible, and communicative. I am truly an animal lover (all of my undergraduate education focused on working with animals, such as sea urchins, harbor seals, baby sharks, coyotes, and more!). I have also had pets for most of my life, and they are truly part of my family. I care for my pets by ensuring that they are happy, healthy, and stimulated. If I had the honor to take care of your pets, I would absolutely do the same! :)

“Nicole was very kind and easy to work with! She came over for a meet and greet on her own time and we planned out everything together. She gave me daily updates on how Ace was doing and took great care of him during our absence! Thanks so much for your help!”

About: As the owner of four cats, I have daily hands-on experience providing consistent, attentive care to animals. Caring for multiple pets has taught me to be patient, reliable, and attentive to each animal's unique needs and personality. While my personal experience has been with cats, I'm comfortable caring for dogs by following their established routines, including feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and providing plenty of love and attention. I'll treat your dog with the same care and dedication I give my own pets! I'm currently a graduate student, which gives me a flexible schedule for pet care throughout the week. I keep my availability up to date and do my best to accommodate your pet's routine, whether that's morning walks, midday drop-ins, or evening visits. I believe consistency is important, so I'll always communicate clearly and provide dependable, attentive care while you're away. Your pet's comfort, safety, and well-being are always my top priorities. Since I'm entering their space, I believe it's important to let each pet take the lead. I take the time to build trust at their own pace and never force interactions or affection. Every pet has a unique personality, and I respect their individual needs and boundaries. I'll follow your pet's routine as closely as possible, whether that includes feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, medication (if needed), or simply providing companionship. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away by maintaining the consistency they're used to. As a pet owner myself, I understand how much trust it takes to leave your furry family member in someone else's care. That's why I'll keep you updated with photos and messages throughout each visit, so you can have peace of mind knowing they're happy, safe, and receiving the same level of care and attention I'd want for my own pets.

“Kim was great. She took on my last minute request and was very willing to accommodate us. She asks all the right questions and is a good communicator. Thanks Kim!”

“Tasha was a great sitter and was super communicative about her drop-in visits. She came to do a meet and green in person and made sure she asked any questions that may help with the care of the cats. She also sent photos during the visits and provided a status update on how they were doing. Would book Tasha again for our cats.”

“Betsy is the best!!!! She’s so sweet and thoughtful and great with my little babies! My cats are insanely shy and she was able to make them comfortable! She’s wonderful!”

About: I have two years of experience working at a dog daycare, where I cared for dogs of all breeds, ages, temperaments, and individual needs. My experience includes feeding, administering medication, and following detailed care instructions to ensure each dog receives proper care and attention. I’m comfortable handling a variety of situations and take pride in providing safe, reliable, and attentive care for every pet. I work full-time at a dog daycare, so caring for dogs is already a big part of my daily routine! I’m available for drop-in visits and walks every day before and after work. My schedule can vary, so I’m happy to discuss specific times when booking to make sure I can give your pup the care and attention they need. I’m also comfortable caring for dogs with different personalities and energy levels, and I’ll make sure your pup gets plenty of attention, exercise, and care while you’re away. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always prioritize their safety, comfort, and routine. I follow any instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications, and any specific needs they may have. I also treat each client’s home with the same care and respect I would want for my own, making sure everything is kept clean, secure, and as I found it. Most importantly, I want both pets and their owners to feel comfortable and confident that they are in good hands.

About: I grew up around animals and have always loved caring for them. I have experience caring for neighbors’ dogs and currently work part-time with a pet care company, where I help with walking and caring for dogs of different sizes and personalities. I’m reliable, patient, and bilingual in English and Spanish. I’ll treat your pets with the same love and care I’d give my own! ❤️ I work remotely part-time for a pet care company and make my own schedule, so I have plenty of flexibility for walks, drop-ins, and house sitting. I’m excited to offer my own services as well and spend even more time caring for pets. I always follow each pet’s normal routine and their parent’s instructions closely. I make sure doors, gates, leashes, food, and medications are handled safely, and I’m happy to do a meet and greet beforehand. I’ll also send regular updates and photos so you can feel comfortable knowing your pet is safe and cared for.

“Stephanie is very thoughtful and conscientious. She took good care of my lab, giving him a mid day break to play.”

“Sydney was fantastic! She took such great care of my senior cat, provided great pictures, and had such great communication. I really can't recommend her enough and will definitely call her back :)”

“This was our first time having Daryl house sit and watch our cat Samantha. Daryl was extremely communicative and planning was a breeze. We got great photos of Samantha throughout his stay. We did a shorter stay to have Samantha get used to someone new as she has not been too good with new people lately. Overall things seemed to go very well and Samantha was even approaching Daryl by the end (big for us). He took his time to let her come to him but still kept up all her care! We will be using Daryl again this month for a longer stay!”

About: I have years of experience with cats with owning 3 growing up. I am a vet assistant who LOVES pets 😇 I am very attentive to pet care, and will always make your pet feel happy, comfortable, and safe. I am a full time student at Las Positas (last semester 😃) who goes to class Monday and Wednesday. I work Thursday- Sunday locally in Danville, and since Tuesday is my only day off I spend it at the East Bay SPCA. I truly love pets and will always find a way to include them in my daily life. My schedule can seem intimidating, but this busy crazy schedule somehow finds me with so much 😇 When I visit a pet in someone’s home I make sure the pet knows this is their space and I am just a friend there to provide love and food. While being at your home I leave no trace of me even being there! Seriously I will leave your house clean, and respect as my own. Your pet is my priority and I’ll make sure to keep you updated throughout our time together.

About: I have been privileged to share over three decades of my life in the companionship of dogs and cats. Whether your pet needs walks or playtime while you’re away for the day, or a safe space for overnight care, I would be happy to love and pamper them as if they were my own. I have experience with pets of all ages and am comfortable administering oral and injectable medications, if needed. I also volunteer with NorCal GSP Rescue and have experience with post-surgery care. . I work from home M-F and have flexibility in my schedule. I am open to early morning or late night walks or drop-in visits in the event that you have an atypical work week. I have two pets in my home, a 12 yr old German Shorthaired Pointer (Sophie) and a 7 yr old Sphynx cat (Zelda). Both are friendly with other animals.

“Cia is reliable and gives great updates on her drop in visits. She has earned the trust of my kitties.”

About: Hey! I'm Nazareth. I'm 22, a part-time community college student, and I also work full time as the manager of a dog daycare and boarding facility in San Ramon. I started working professionally with dogs when I was 17, and over the years I've gotten comfortable with just about every personality. High-energy dogs that love to jump? No problem. Seniors who need medication? Happy to help. Nervous, anxious, or reactive dogs? I'm comfortable working at their pace and earning their trust. I currently work full-time, so my availability varies depending on the day. Workdays (Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, and Sunday): Available before 9:30 AM Unavailable 9:30 AM–1:00 PM Available 1:00 PM–2:00 PM Unavailable 2:00 PM–7:30 PM Available after 7:30 PM Days Off (Wednesday & Saturday): I'm generally available throughout the day and have much more flexibility for drop-ins, walks, or extended visits. If your requested time falls outside my listed availability, don't hesitate to reach out anyway. My schedule can occasionally be adjusted, and I'll always do my best to accommodate your needs whenever possible. Your pet's safety, comfort, and routine are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet's unique personality, feeding schedule, medications, exercise needs, and any special instructions before every booking. I believe pets are happiest when they can stick to their normal routine, especially while their owners are away. While caring for pets in a client's home, I treat both the pets and the home with the same respect I would my own. I'll keep food and water fresh, clean up after your pets, make sure doors and gates are secure, and provide plenty of attention, playtime, or quiet companionship depending on what your pet enjoys. You'll also receive regular updates with photos so you can relax knowing your pets are safe and well cared for. I'm experienced in recognizing animal body language and responding calmly to different personalities and situations. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, or a senior who needs a slower pace, I'll provide patient, reliable care tailored to their needs.

“Sabrina took great care of our cat for 7 days and we are happy with her.”

About: I have experiences with Senior care and basic training for puppies. I watch their body languages carefully to know when to pause a play and what they need from me :) Leia and I usually go for a walk in the morning, around 5 in the afternoon and quick bathroom break before going to bed. I work from home most of the time so id love to help to care for another dog so they’re not depressed alone at home whole the parents are off to earn money for their their pawbills 😝 I help to care for friends dogs when they need and I feed them together but separately so they don’t get food aggressive. I also monitor toys so it doesn’t create fights. Because I have Leia, I know the struggle and guilt feelings when you have vacation planned and need to leave the pup. I try my best to give lots of updates and pics so the humans can enjoy their time away as well.

“I really appreciated the frequent updates and pictures of my furbaby, I would board her with Aubrey again. :)”
