Pet Sitting Diablo

“Elizabeth was able to accommodate me in a time of emergency. She was quick to respond and always gave pics for the visits. Penny can be shy, but warmed up to Elizabeth right way. I really appreciate Penny had such great care.”

“Julienne is amazing! She really took the time to make sure my sweet skiddish kitty was comfortable and well cared for. I received lots of updates and pictures which put my mind at ease while I was gone. Will definitely be using her again!”

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.

“I met Surjit in the Peace Corps and since day one she’s shown a tremendous quality of being a dependable friend. She’s charismatic, she’s thoughtful, and she’s an extremely loving caretaker. When my dog Darwin first met her, his eyes lit up and his pupils went wide with love for her as they continue to do so every time they get together and forget I’m even there. She’s one of the very few people who I trust enough to take care of Darwin and they continue to bond in a way I don’t really see with other people since, even though my dog is very cute, I think he knows it and can be a bit antisocial and aloof. But Surjit sees him and fully accepts him for who he is, as I see her do with all pets in her life. I happily endorse Surjit because I know that she does not just see your pet as a dog or a cat, she sees them as individuals with their own personalities, fears, habits, wants, and needs. I happily endorse Surjit because I know that she will, without a doubt, go above and beyond and take care of your pet like she takes care of her own family and friends.”

About: I've taken care of close family friends dogs and I've worked at a pet resort for dogs and other animals. You can trust me to treat them with so much love and give them their basic needs and anything else you'd like for me to do with them (: I currently work with dogs full time with a schedule and I will work around the schedule and when it comes to your fur baby I prioritize them first before working with other dogs. I do not have pets of my own but because I've taken care of others and worked at a pet resort for dogs and other animals I know what's needed to be done. I know dog behavior, feedings, medicine, how often they should go use the bathroom, etc.

“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: 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: Hello! My name is Allie. I’m a lifelong dog lover, owner, and trainer. I come from Washington state where I was raised with dogs of all kinds. For the last few years, I professionally trained and also trained law-enforcement canines. I actively compete with my dog in a sport called Schutzhund. I am extremely confident with all kinds of dogs- from tiny ones, to the giant breeds! If you have a sport dog that you need handled by an experienced working dog handler, I can absolutely help you out. I am an extremely competent and safe handler and look forward to helping you out with your pups! I am a full time Explosives/Firearms detection K9 Handler. I work M-F, 0700-1500. My weekends are very flexible! I can usually work most clients and dogs into my full time schedule very easily. I have an awesome yard that your dogs are welcomed to play in on a long line. I also have a very sweet intact male dog who is a friend to all, if your dog likes others! I have crates available if your dog needs one. I exercise and train my dog daily, so your dog’s needs can easily be tended to. I have plenty of experience with working dogs, so I understand the implications of handling them (detection, apprehension, sport). Your pup will be extremely safe and well cared for!

About: Your pup will be staying in a gated San Ramon community with tree-lined, well-groomed walking paths right outside the door — perfect for calm, unhurried walks. My apartment complex has its own private dog park for off-leash playtime and a dog wash station to keep your pet fresh and clean before they head home to you. I have two small schnauzer mixes of my own — friendly, playful, and easygoing, not high-energy — so your dog will have relaxed, well-matched company. My fiancé and I split care so no pet is ever alone for more than 2–3 hours, and I use a WiFi camera to check in and keep an eye on things even when I step out. Safe, clean, social, and closely watched — I treat every dog like it’s staying at home. My fiancé and I split care shifts on weekdays so no dog is ever alone more than 2–3 hours and if there are they have the company of two other friendly dogs. Weekends were generally home all day. Days include walks along our tree-lined community paths and a WiFi camera check-in whenever I step out. I live in a gated community, so every walk and play session stays off busy streets. The neighborhood has meticulously groomed, tree-lined walking paths and a private, fenced dog park just steps from my door for safe off-leash time.

About: I've been caring for dogs since I was 10 years old, when our family adopted our first dog, a bull terrier mix named Sadie. Being a shelter dog she required a lot of love and patience to build trust. At a young age I read books and worked with her every day to ensure her safety and happiness. She lived a solid 16 years with us. Over the years I've cared for several pets, mainly dog, cat, and chicken sitting for friend's/family's furry (and feathery) children, and even raised my own Golden Retriever, Samson, who's currently 8 years old. I'm extremely attentive, nurturing, reliable, patient, and detail-oriented for pets with medications, special diets or specific routines. I've cared for puppies, youth, as well as senior animals. At the moment I've been dedicated to focusing on my craft as an artist which has allowed flexibility in my schedule. My current availability is Monday - Sunday, mornings/afternoons/evenings and I'm even open to overnight care. I currently cannot host pets in my home, as I live with 2 cats who are not open to sharing their space lol, but am respectful of the client's home and my first priority is your pet's safety.

About: Growing up with an adorable mixed shelter dog and introducing an adopted King Charles Spaniel into the family, I learned how to care for both high and low energy dogs. Pet sitting for family and friends, I got to take care of puppies and senior dogs and learned the importance of a good schedule for things like naps and appropriate medications. My schedule is fairly open, primarily Monday through Friday, during the workweek, and is very flexible to make room for any walks, play time, or food breaks during the day. Pet safety is my top priority and ensuring a clean area is an important responsibility. I will provide personalized in-home care to keep your pets comfortable and entertained while they are in my care.

“This is our 3rd time booking Rebecca, and I think our kitties might launch a mutiny if we tried to book anyone else. Our cats are different than most because they used to be feral (living in our neighborhood) and we brought them inside. It took me over a year with one of them to earn the trust to pet him. They are not "people" cats and have only ever been pet by my family, the staff at the vet... and now, Rebecca! She has managed to win their trust in only a few short visits and they are even coming out to greet her now when she comes in. Amazing! And... Rebecca is even able to give insulin injections to that same super shy cat who didn't let me pet him for a year. Thank you, Rebecca, for all you do. We and our kitties can't say enough good things.”

I’m dedicated to providing personalized care tailored to each pet’s unique personality and health needs, giving pet parents peace of mind and pets the loving care they deserve. I'm retired and Pet care is a daily part of my routine—feeding, walks, playtime, and cuddles. I also set aside time each week mental stimulation, and grooming if needed to keep pets happy and healthy." I offer pet sitting and boarding services exclusively at my home.

“I have rebooked with Susan several times for drop in visits. Susan takes great care of my dog and is very reliable. She always leave me detailed notes about the visit with lots of pictures. I can tell my dog likes Susan and her dog a lot. It’s nice that I don’t have to worry about my dog when I’m gone for long periods, having Susan check in on him has been working out great for my dog and me.”

I cannot say enough wonderful things!”

About: I'm a retired officer, background-checked through Rover, and have more than 10 years of experience caring for my own dogs as well as friends', family members', and clients' pets. Throughout my career and personal life, responsibility, trustworthiness, and attention to detail have always been important to me, and I bring those same qualities to every pet I care for. In 2016, I adopted Barney the Shih Tzu, followed by Jack in 2019. Both were estimated to be about four years old at the time. In 2025, Jack passed away from bone cancer, giving me firsthand experience caring for a senior dog with significant medical needs. In 2022, I rescued Penny, the white pup in my profile photo. Certifications & Experience • Cat & Dog First Aid (American Red Cross) • Experience administering oral medications • Experience caring for senior pets and pets with special needs • Experience caring for dogs and cats of various ages, sizes, and temperaments, including a large Rottweiler I believe every pet deserves patience, kindness, consistency, and individualized care. Whether your pet is energetic and playful, senior and slower-paced, or simply happiest sticking to a familiar routine, my goal is to provide dependable care while helping them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine, and I'm home much of the time. This allows me to provide regular companionship, potty breaks, feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and supervision throughout the day. Because I intentionally limit the number of pets I care for at one time, I am able to provide a more personalized level of attention and maintain a calmer environment for the pets in my care. Whether caring for pets in my home or in a client's home, I strive to maintain their normal routine as closely as possible. Consistency helps pets feel comfortable, secure, and relaxed while their owners are away. My schedule is generally flexible, allowing me to accommodate a variety of care needs, including daycare, overnight care, drop-in visits, and pet sitting in a client's home. Pick-up and drop-off service may be available depending on distance and scheduling. My dogs are part of the family and spend much of their time relaxing near us, on the furniture, or curled up on a lap. Visiting pets are treated with the same level of care, attention, and companionship while in my home. Dogs are welcome on furniture unless owners request otherwise. I intentionally limit the number of guest dogs I accept at one time to help create a calm, safe, and low-stress environment. This allows me to provide close supervision and a more personalized experience than many high-volume pet care settings. If you prefer your dog to be crated for sleeping, feeding, or when unattended, I'm happy to accommodate as long as a crate is provided. Visiting dogs should be reasonably housebroken, with exceptions considered on a case-by-case basis for puppies and special circumstances. Meet-and-greets are strongly preferred whenever possible before services begin. They allow me to learn about your pet's personality, needs, and comfort level while helping determine whether my home and care style are a good fit. When caring for pets in a client's home, I respect both the pet's routine and the owner's home, providing dependable care, companionship, exercise, and attentive supervision. I believe every pet deserves patience, kindness, consistency, and respect. My goal is to provide a safe, comfortable environment where pets can feel relaxed, secure, and well cared for while their owners are away.

About: With over 15 years of experience with dogs of all sizes and temperaments, I know how to keep each one comfortable, safe, and engaged. Whether it’s high-energy exercise for young pups, an easy walk for seniors, or attention to specific needs, I adjust my approach to fit every dog’s personality. I’m skilled at reading canine behavior and providing solid, reliable care that keeps dogs calm and content. You can count on me to make sure your dog is in good hands, so you’ll come home to a happy, relaxed pet every time. My schedule is flexible, so I can accommodate everything from quick check-ins to extended care. Whether it’s a daily walk, playtime, or a longer stay, I keep a consistent routine that helps dogs feel comfortable and well-cared-for, no matter the day. When caring for pets, safety and comfort are my top priorities. In my home, I create a calm, pet-friendly space with plenty of room for them to relax and move around. In a client’s home, I make sure to stick to their usual routines and follow any specific instructions to keep pets comfortable and secure. I’m mindful of each pet’s unique needs, from managing energy levels to ensuring they’re never left unattended, and I stay aware of their behavior to make sure they’re happy and at ease in any environment.

“Brooke was great! Very easy to coordinate with and kept us in the loop for everything. Our dog seemed happy and calm when we returned as well. We will definitely be using her again in the future!”
