Pet Sitting Castro Valley

About: I have experience taking care of dogs because I grew up with them. Being around dogs has always felt natural to me, so I understand the basics of feeding them, walking them, playing with them, keeping them comfortable, and paying attention to what they need. I’m gentle, patient, and attentive, but I’m also playful, so I enjoy making sure dogs are not just cared for, but actually happy and engaged. I know every dog has their own personality, routine, and comfort level, so I would always respect the owner’s instructions and take time to understand what works best for their dog. I’m currently in college and home for the summer, so my schedule is very open and flexible. I’m available for walks, playtime, drop-ins, and consistent care throughout the week. I’m happy to work with your dog’s routine and make scheduling easy for you. I care for pets by keeping their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. In a client’s home, I would follow their instructions carefully, whether that includes feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, medication, or general house rules. I want pets to feel safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for. For walks or visits, I would stay aware of my surroundings, keep dogs secure on their leash, avoid unsafe situations, and pay attention to how they’re acting. My goal is for the pet to feel cared for and for the owner to feel relaxed knowing their dog is safe and in good hands.

About: I have been caring for pets since I was 10 years old and have experience looking after my own pets as well as those of family members and friends! Over the years, I have provided a variety of pet care services, including taking pets on walks, playing with them, feeding them, and bathing them. My experience has helped me develop a strong understanding of pet needs and a genuine love for caring for animals! I'm available on weekdays from 10am-5pm and weekends from after 2pm! Feel free to please reach out even if it seems that I'm not available! I am pretty open unless I have another schedule / bookings. Please try to request a few weeks out so we can guarantee a meet & greet! I have a reliable transportation to go to farther places if needed. I have a fenced backyard for your pets to play in! I have a two story home that allows your pets to comfortably roam around. I currently have no personal pets residing in my house so I will be able to take care of your pet more properly one on one!

“Kimberly and her son took amazing care of our three fur babies and our home for three weeks while we had to travel abroad! I always look forward to the detailed updates and pictures of our fur babies 💖 and our cats have gotten to love her and her son! You both are always welcome back to watch our kitties!”

About: With over 16 years of experience in veterinary medicine and a lifetime of loving and caring for animals, I bring professional knowledge and genuine compassion to every pet I care for. My background includes veterinary assisting, client education, hospital management, and working alongside veterinarians to provide exceptional patient care. I have experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, breeds, and temperaments, including puppies, kittens, seniors, and pets with medical conditions or special needs. I am comfortable administering oral medications, monitoring behavior for signs of illness, following detailed care instructions, and maintaining daily routines. I understand that every pet has a unique personality, and I take the time to build trust, provide enrichment, and ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. My goal is to give pet parents complete peace of mind knowing their furry family member is receiving experienced, attentive, and compassionate care. Pet care has always been a natural part of my life, both personally and professionally. I intentionally schedule my time so I can provide reliable, unhurried care and give each pet the individual attention they deserve. Whether your pet needs a quick potty break, an extended walk, overnight companionship, medication administration, or simply someone to spend quality time with them, I am committed to maintaining their normal routine. I understand that consistency helps pets feel secure, and I pride myself on being dependable, punctual, and flexible whenever possible to meet the needs of both pets and their families. Your pet’s health, safety, and happiness are always my highest priorities. My veterinary background allows me to recognize subtle changes in behavior, appetite, mobility, or overall health that others may overlook. I carefully follow all feeding instructions, medication schedules, exercise requirements, and household routines exactly as requested. When caring for pets in your home, I treat your home with the same respect I would my own while creating a calm, low-stress environment for your pet. I use secure leashes and harnesses during walks, supervise outdoor time, monitor interactions with other animals, and provide plenty of affection, playtime, and enrichment. I also believe communication is key, so you’ll receive regular updates and photos, allowing you to relax knowing your beloved companion is in experienced, caring hands.

“Angela took great care of my senior dog and cat. She was patient, attentive to my fur babies on their first ever pet sitting experience, and eventually won their hearts. I would recommend her and Joshua to everyone, and intend to book them again in the future.”

About: I have grown up around animals my whole life. I have 3 elderly cats that I have had since 1st grade. I have cared for my family’s dogs and cats. I have a lot of experience with cats and even stray kittens. I’ve also taken care of big sassy energetic dogs who I have all cared for. I am currently a student with a very flexible schedule and with time to spare. I love spending time with animals and providing them with a safe and comfortable experience. I listen attentively to owners instructions on how to care for their pet as no pet and environment is the same. I will follow up with questions if anything comes up or is not clear.

Thanks for checking everything like his litter box, food, health, etc. We appreciate you looking after our little angel baby and sending us the most adorable photos. We will definitely be in contact again for future trips!!!”

About: I have two dogs and two cats. I’ve done dog walking since early middle school and pet sitting for two years. I love animals and have for a long time. I’ll bring treats and spoil your furry friends! Walks, cuddles and playtime are my specialty! I just finished my semester of school and am pretty free for the summer! I love excuses to go out of the house and go on walk adventures with dogs or cuddles with your cat (or walk them if they like walks too!) For walks I can double leash just for added security and safety with dogs. I can swing by during set times you want me to be there, give food and play or go on walks. If you want me to house and pet sit I will bring my own stuff to keep myself entertained and maybe a few treats to share with your furry friends.

“Krystle was amazing with our cat! She helped with all the things I asked for and went above and beyond and helped with other things like ant invasion when we were away. She was extremely patient and sweet with our cat that was hiding under the couch during her visits. She was able to get our cat to play with her after couple of days, thanks to Krystle’s gentle approach. I was comfortable being away and knew that my cat was being treated well and taken care of. I 100% recommend Krystle! She’s truly the best. I’ll definitely reach out to her if I need a sitter again.”

About: I have been providing home-style dog boarding and pet care since 2017, with over 9 years of hands-on experience. I also worked for two years at a professional dog boarding and daycare facility in San Francisco and have experience in animal rescue. I am experienced in caring for dogs of all ages and personalities, especially puppies, senior dogs, rescue dogs, and dogs with anxiety or special needs. What sets me apart is my small, home-based care approach. I only accept 1–2 dogs at a time, which allows me to provide full attention, a calm environment, and truly personalized care for each dog. I am patient and attentive, and I adjust my care based on each dog’s personality to help them feel safe, comfortable, and at home. I stay at home most of the time and have a flexible schedule, so caring for pets is a natural part of my daily life. I take dogs out for walks, feed them, and spend time with them every day. I only accept a small number of dogs so I can give each pet plenty of attention and care. Home-style care in Castro Valley. Only 1–2 dogs at a time, never more than a small pack — so every visitor gets personal attention and a calm, consistent routine. Quiet indoor spaces to nap, multiple walks outside each day, and free meet-and-greets before any stay. I've been caring for dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs and more since 2018 and specialize in small and medium dogs under 45 lb.

About: I’ve owned a Pitbull for 15 years and most recently I’ve rescued another Pitbull pup from the Hayward dog shelter. We love our local dog parks. I am a teacher for HUSD and currently on summer break. So I have a lot of down time right now if you need a break from your dog. I take my own dog to the local dog parks and much as I can. I also walk the neighborhoods to keep her active. I have a balcony where she uses the restroom on pads and grass and we plenty of toys in the apartment to keep busy.

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