Pet Sitting Diablo

About: I have a huge love for animals and I tend to be able to bond with them very well. I have two dogs of my own at home, a border collie and a havanese. I’ve had dogs in my home for the majority of my life, and even before that I had been around dogs a lot, as all of my extended family owns dogs. That being said, I know my profile says I do take puppies under a year old, however they must be house trained and able to be left alone for a bit as I am not always able to be in the house 24/7, though I do stay with them as much as possible. I tend to work on a case to case basis for puppies as well as senior dogs. I spent a year volunteering at a local animal shelter where I learned a lot about how to work with cats, and have since cat sat for a friend multiple times over the years. I worked at a kennel with dogs for three months during a summer vacation as well, and I worked at a local dog daycare for almost a year. All of my experience has furthered my knowledge with animal behavior. I recently graduated from the University of Washington and am currently looking for a job! So, for the time being, I am able to be home with your pets almost always. Once I find a full time job, we can discuss a schedule that works for both me and your pets! I will make sure that, since I will be in the animals’ space, I will be respectful of their area and yours as well. I will stick to their normal routine as best as I can and make sure that they are comfortable around me.

“Ayla was WONDERFUL with our cat! She brought in the mail, kept the house / kitchen tidy and gave Nova so much attention. She played with Nova a lot and sent great photos which made us so happy to see while we were on a trip. Thank you and would love to have you again!”

About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong dog lover with years of experience caring for furry friends, and I’m excited to help your pup feel happy and loved while you’re away. Though I recently had to be separated from my own dog, I’ve been surrounded by dogs my whole life, so I know how to give them attention, comfort, and fun. Whether it’s a quick visit, a long walk, or overnight care, I treat every dog like a part of the family. I’d love to meet your pup and provide the care, attention, and companionship they deserve! I work from home in a pet-friendly community, so your dog will get plenty of walks, cuddles, and attention all day. I have a flexible schedule if provided with enough notice. I prioritize safety, trust, and a happy environment for every dog. Since I don’t currently have any pets, your pup will have my full attention! I provide walks, cuddles, and supervision in a secure, pet-friendly space. Whether in my home or yours, I follow your rules and routines exactly, treating your dog and your home with the same love and respect I would my own.

About: Caring for dogs has always been second nature to me. I’m comfortable adapting to different personalities and needs, from high-energy pups who love long walks to older dogs who prefer a slower pace. I’m dependable, calm, and make sure each dog feels safe, loved, and at ease while you’re away. I love taking dogs on walks, throwing the ball for them, and hanging outside in the backyard with them. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine, and I plan my schedule to be flexible and dependable for owners. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and care throughout the week, with additional availability on weekends. I make sure each visit is unrushed so dogs get attention, exercise, and care rather than feeling squeezed into a busy schedule. I have a fully fenced yard with lots of grass for outdoor time and play - aka the Fur Seasons. I follow feeding, walking, and home instructions carefully, and I’m happy to accommodate crates or specific routines if needed. I also will always send photo updates so you can feel good and know what your dog is up to while your dog is in my care!

About: Hello! My name is Mary and I’m a retired grandmother who has been a dog owner and dog lover all my life. Although I’m not able to own a furry friend in my home right now, I often take care of my children’s and relative’s dogs whenever needed. I completely understand the importance of feeling at ease with someone in your home taking care of your loved one. Being retired opens up my availability to be flexible to accommodate your needs. Any day, any time, any length, regardless of Holidays or school schedules. I’ve cared for children, grandchildren, and animals my whole life. I am responsible and dependable and love them unconditionally. I will be respectful of your home and your privacy throughout my house sitting stay.

“Sahar took wonderful care of our little cat and did everything we asked. She arrived on time, followed all of our feeding instructions, and kept the litter box clean. We would happily have Sahar pet sit for us again and highly recommend her!”

“I loved having Elizabeth check on my babies while I traveled for the holidays. She was very kind and communicative! I felt she was very personable, yet still professional. I felt at ease knowing they were being cared for by Elizabeth. I will definitely be using her in the future!”

“Jessica is a trustworthy and committed sitter that made my animals feel loved and well taken care of. I can tell from the pictures of her playing ball with my dogs that they were in heaven with all the attention she was giving them. Great communication and easy-going with great energy.”

About: Dog walking and dog sitting was my first ever job! I have dog walked and dog sat for my friends, my family, and worked for local dog walking company for a couple years—taking care and walking multiple dogs a week. I have also cat sat for many years and volunteered at an animal shelter and have lots of experience with different kinds of dogs and cats. I love my pets and would love to care of yours like they are my own! I’m currently working part time from home and have availability during the day for dog walks. I am also available on some weeks/weekends for dog and cat sitting! I have a fenced yard and a very walkable neighborhood for dogs. I can crate dogs and take dogs on walks. I also have had dogs in this home and currently have 1 friendly cat.

“Komal was amazing. She truly is wonderful and professional. We highly recommend Komal. We will continue to have Komal pet sit. You dogs were in great hands.”

About: Hey there! 🐾 I've been surrounded by pets all my life, so caring for furry friends comes naturally to me. When I'm not at the elementary school where I work, you can find me enjoying the outdoors, often with a canine companion by my side. I'm excited to meet your pets and provide them with the love and attention they deserve plus gain some daily morning exercise while walking your dog! I'm looking to be able to walk dogs early in the morning before my Kids' Country job around 10am. If possible, I can do drop in visits afterward 6:30pm. I'm fully available Saturday and Sunday. I have a fenced in yard to give dogs some freedom, but I am looking to give dogs walks as often as possible around the Danville/ Alamo/ Blackhawk and San Ramon areas.

“I had some last-minute plans come up and urgently needed someone to look after my dog. Nicole was incredibly accommodating, stepping in on short notice, and went above and beyond to make sure my dog was well cared for. When booking, I accidentally selected the dog check-in service instead of the dog sitter option. I reached out to Nicole about the mix-up, and she was incredibly understanding. She was very flexible and kindly allowed me to adjust my request. Overall, Nicole was truly amazing and I couldn't have asked for a better sitter!”

About: I grew up with two dogs, so I’ve been surrounded by wagging tails, happy zoomies, and endless cuddles since I was little. Now I’m also a proud cat parent—which means I’m equally comfortable with playful pups and independent little feline bosses 😄 I genuinely love spending time with animals and getting to know their unique personalities. Whether your pet wants a long walk, an energetic play session, a quiet companion, or lots of belly rubs, I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I work fully from home and have a flexible schedule, so pet care fits easily into my daily routine. I’m able to adjust my day around feeding times, playtime, walks, litter box care, and check-ins. For drop-in visits, I’ll coordinate with you in advance to choose a time that works best for both you and your pet. I’ll carefully follow your instructions and your pet’s usual routine, including feeding, fresh water, playtime, litter box care, or any other needs. I’ll also make sure your home is secure before I leave and send you updates and photos, so you know your pet is safe, comfortable, and well cared for.

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Nicholas and Sarah are absolutely incredible! From the moment we met them, we knew our sunshine bear was in the best hands. They were punctual, responsible, and went above and beyond to love on our pup all week long. We especially appreciated the regular updates and sweet photos that kept us at ease while we were away. Could not recommend them enough — truly the kind of sitters every pet parent hopes to find!”

“My dog is so happy when Bar shows up at our door! Zibby gets good exercise and is always panting when she gets home, which is literally what the doctor ordered! Zibby loves her and what more could you ask for?”

Barbara J.

“I had a last-minute need for someone to check in on my dog due to a flight delay, and Hailey truly saved the day! She responded quickly, was flexible and reliable, and kept me updated throughout the entire process to ensure my dog was well cared for. I’m so grateful to Hailey for stepping in on such short notice and would highly recommend her for any future pet sitting needs. Thank you, Hailey!”

“Matt was awesome. He’s a great guy and took care of our dog perfectly. Matt was prompt and very caring with our senior dog. We highly recommend Matt.”

About: I have experience pet-sitting a variety of pets of all ages. I am able to care for dogs, birds, rodents, rabbits, and reptiles. I love all animals! Your pet's wellbeing, happiness, and healthiness is my number 1 priority. My pets are pampered and yours will be too in my care :) I work from home, so I am free to petsit all day long! I have a lot of yard space for dogs to roam and lounge around and I have space to care for several pets at a time. I currently have one dog myself (an elderly French bulldog). Daily dog walks are also a part of my routine. I keep a very clean home, but I have lots of places for dogs to cuddle up on couches or beds as well. I offer pet boarding, so I can watch your pet at my home. In my care, pets are never caged or crated (unless explicitly asked to be). I allow them to roam free around my home and backyard. Dogs in my care are able to get regular walks and lots of love and cuddles. I am also able to watch birds, rodents, reptiles, and rabbits. I love absolutely all animals, although unfortunately I am unable to petsit cats due to the safety of my other animal. You can rest easy knowing that your pet will be in the absolute best care with me! My home is completely safe and spacious for your pets.

About: Woof Woof Woof Meow Meow Meow I have pet sat for friends and family and would love to extend that service to my bay area neighbors. Love taking dogs for walks or to the local parks such as Fort Funston or McLaren Park. I have a skittish indoor cat, Spikey(5yr American shorthair), who is initially very shy but usually warms up to people. Checking in on cats and cleaning litter boxes is not new to me. Just want to treat your fur baby with the love, care and respect I would use to treat my own fur babies. Woof Woof Woof Meow Meow Meow I have partial work from home schedule, going into the office 2-3 days a week. Commute time is only 5 mins to Oyster Point in SSF, so can easily pop back in for a lunch time walk if needed. Your fur babies will have free roam of the living room with views of the bay and any birds outside. Best if puppies are crate trained for the night. If you are dropping off multiple pets I can separately feed them if needed.

“Jack was terrific and took great care of our cat. He's friendly, dependable, and great with pets. Highly recommend Jack and would definitely request him to watch our cat in the future”
