House Sitting Downtown

“Elizabeth stayed with my Pomeranians for most of November due to work travel and then a personal trip over Thanksgiving. I always hate being away from my pups, but after the first two short stays for my business trips, I felt really good about being far away for 10 days over Thanksgiving, knowing they were in good hands. As always, Elizabeth was communicative, responsive and I could really tell she was getting to know their personalities and quirks. She also sent really fun updates, with a bit of humor and witty writing, but even better, the stories she texted me about were spot on with how they behave as a little pack. In addition, after her stay, I was putting harnesses on them to go on a walk, I noticed that my 9 month old pup Evie, who always ran around crazy when it was walk time and wouldn’t let me put her harness on, was coming up to me to get her harness put on. So, not only did she take good care of them, she somehow got Evie to understand how to put her harness on, and that chase was not part of that process. I’ll be forever grateful for whatever magic she did to get Evie to want to put on her harness! I will absolutely use Elizabeth again and highly recommend her to stay with your pets while on vacation or business travel.”

“Zola is fantastic! She kept us informed of how our little girls were while we were out of town. Definitely using her services again!😁”

“Always does an amazing job. Additionally, she helped give some ear medicine to my dog which is not a fun task but absolutely helped out. 10/10 recommend”

“I have asked Michelle to pet sit my kitty, Nugget, on multiple occasions and she will continue to be the first person I reach out to. Michelle is very communicative, always making sure i am receiving pictures of my sweet girl. I know that when Michelle watches her, that she will be fed, have a clean litter box and will receive all the love. I think the biggest indicator that Michelle is great with my cat, is that Nugget absolutely loves her. It’s so wonderful having a pet sitter that I can trust. Thank you Michelle!”

“Rocko struggles with dog reactivity so finding a caretaker to stay with him and handle him safely outside was our #1 priority. Tracey was fantastic and her communication and handling were thoughtful. Thank you for taking care of Rocko so we could do what we needed to on our business trips!”

“Shelby was so great!! She did a home stay with our dog Bowie who is very dog-reactive. She followed all our instructions and made sure he was comfortable on walks. She also provided updates and pictures and videos and communicated so much which we requested and really appreciated. Will definitely book her again and highly recommend her as a pet sitter! We loved her!”

Leallani S.

“She is kind and gentle with the animals. She’s smart and independent meaning she can find her way and do the right thing without step by step instruction. She’s GREAT! She has common sense and empathy. She was readily available on short notice (hour) and made it so we wouldn’t miss our child’s concert. Any pet that has her as a pet sitter is VERY lucky! She’s the best! Thank you, Radia!”

Courtney R.

“Sarah is wonderful! She took great care of my cats, sent regular updates and photos, and made me feel completely at ease while I was away. My girls warmed up to her nicely and even snuggled with her which made me so happy to see how comfortable they were with her. I would definitely recommend Sarah and cannot thank her enough :)”

“Ana was great with Lucie! Lucie injured her leg before we left, and Ana made sure she stayed on her meds and rested while keeping me updated! She left our place very clean as well👍🏻.”

About: Since I was a kid, I’ve always had multiple dogs in my house at a time. Taking care of and walking dogs has always been a staple to my everyday routine and overall life. In the past 4 years my family and I have begun to foster dogs of all different ages, breeds, and personalities. They came in and out of our house often and each dog had different needs you had to accommodate for. The most difficult were puppies, who seemed to be either very shy or very energetic. While the dogs stayed at our house I would take on the task of feeding and walking them and overtime I got better and better. I love to work with dogs and I’m so excited to meet and help more dogs in new areas! I’m currently a full-time student at San Jose State University but I will always make time for you dogs! My best time for walking dogs is Tuesday/Thursday afternoons and anytime Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. While for home visits my best times are Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. I unfortunately cannot care for dogs in my own home but at a client’s home I will make sure to respect any rules and focus on the dog’s needs above any other things. For myself, taking care of dogs at home has always been making sure they’re well fed, well walked, and have everything they need to have a good time.

“Lynn did an outstanding job caring for our two COVID rescue dogs, who are very unsocialized and typically only feel comfortable around my husband and me. Leaving them with someone else was a big deal for us, but Lynn was incredibly patient, knowledgeable, and understanding of their needs. She kept us updated every day with videos and pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. My husband and I felt confident that our girls were in good hands, receiving the patience, attention, and loving care they needed. Lynn truly went above and beyond to keep them comfortable and well cared for. If you are looking for a genuine, knowledgeable, and trustworthy pet sitter, hire Lynn! We couldn't have asked for a better person to care for our girls, and we would absolutely trust her with them again. Thank you, Lynn!!! Overall Rating: 5 stars. I would give her 10 stars if I could!!!”

“Sydney was so awesome with our dogs and cat! She house-sat for us over an extended weekend, and made sure that our animals were safe and taken care of. One of our dogs requires medication a couple times a day, and she was super on top of giving it to her and letting us know. We definitely recommend Sydney!! She was wonderful 😊”

About: I am blessed to have been able to grow up with dogs. They are my world. From puppy care to senior care, I can promise you the best for your loved ones. I work part-time and would love to get the opportunity to take care of your loved ones. Due to the nature of my job, from weekdays to weekends my availability is very open. I am so excited to get to know you and your fur babies!! With years of experience in dog walking, feeding, and training, I understand that pets need proper love and care to thrive. I prioritize creating a safe environment that keeps your babies stress-free. I am very communicative and will adhere to their usual routines while taking lots of pictures so you are confident in my care for them!

About: I have had, and taken care of, many dogs in my life. From big dogs, to small dogs, and senior dogs of both kinds, I have experience with it all. Every dog is my favorite dog, and I can’t wait to meet your best friend! :) I am currently in school as well as working part time, however I live quite close to both, so I do spend a frequent amount of time in my home, meaning I’ll be available for your pup at almost all times. I live with three other roommates, so perfect if your dog loves attention, and I am well equipped to walk your dogs as far as they may need to go to be relatively worn out. I let animals snuggle and cuddle with me, but I can help with any training they may specifically have.

“Alessandra took care of our cat and senior dog for about a week over the summer, and we were genuinely happy to have her. We were able to relax and enjoy our vacation knowing the pets were in such good hands. Alessandra very quickly won over our shy cat, not easy! I loved getting photos of the pets each day and seeing that they were also clearly on vacation. She was actually with them at the house every day, something that is really important to us. At the time we were going through a kitchen remodel so our downstairs was a mess-- we didn't have any appliances or even flooring in the kitchen, but Alessandra was really sweet about it. We came back to a clean house and very sad/confused pets who had already embraced their new lives with her :) we all look forward to having Alessandra back again soon!”

About: Having owned and cared for dogs and cats my whole life—including years of pet-sitting—I’m experienced with dogs of all breeds, ages, and temperaments. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give your pet my full attention whenever you need support. Whether you need dog walking, drop-in visits, or in-home pet sitting, your pet will enjoy attentive, personalized care with the perfect mix of play, walks, and dedicated attention. I primarily work remotely from home with a highly flexible routine, allowing me to focus on your pet throughout the entire day. Because I am on-site continuously, I can provide frequent potty breaks, steady companionship, play breaks, and quick neighborhood walks. I easily adapt to your dog’s specific feeding and exercise schedule without leaving them unattended. Safety and peace of mind are my highest priorities. When pets are in my home, I maintain a clean, calm, and fully pet-proofed space equipped with comfortable resting areas and secure environments. For care hosted in your home, I strictly follow your established routines, care instructions, and safety boundaries. Regardless of location, I ensure all doors and windows remain secure and double-check all leashes and gear before heading outside.

“After using Rover for almost 5 years now I can safely say that Maria has been the best I’ve met so far! She’s super loving, genuinely caring, transparent and a true dog lover. She not only followed Rio’s schedule but went over and beyond by getting treats and fruit for him when they got over. Maria even cleaned up the house and linens which she totally didn’t have to but it just shows how sincere she is. She treated my home like her own 💕 and sent regular updates and pictures which I appreciated so much since this was a longer trip … Rio looked so happy in them! As we got home and it was time for Maria to head out, Rio gave her so many kisses and even went looking for her in the guest room later in the night. I truly appreciate you Maria, you are really the best. Rio and I hope to meet you again soon :)”

About: I have taken care of my friends and family’s dogs for a while now. I have trained many puppies, and generally enjoy being around them. I am a newly graduated graduate student and M in the process of interview and waiting to hear back for some jobs. Therefore, I have a lot of free time right now and would love to make money in the best way which is spending time with animals. My home does not allow pets, but I am more than happy to pet sit in the owners house. I am very opened and very good at communicating, which is essential in ensuring the best experience of dog sitting. I strive to make this as stress-free of an experience as possible.

“Becky is the most responsible pet sitter and house sitter I know. She watched our husky and our house for two weeks, and had excellent communication with her throughout. She took out our trash, left the house clean and even washed her sheets. I can't recommend her highly enough.”

Laura B.

“Highly recommend Donna as both a dog and house sitter. My plants did better while I was gone than when I'm at home, the house was perfectly clean, and I got lots of sweet photos during our time away. Donna responds quickly to messages, shows up on time, and was willing to put in the time to get to know our reactive pup. So grateful to have found such a great dog sitter!”
