Cat Sitting East Foothills

About: I provide Dog Boarding 🐶, Doggy Day Care 🐕, and Cat Drop-Ins 🐱.

Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priority. We maintain a clean, secure, and pet-friendly home —with daily cleaning using a robot vacuum 🤖, baby gates 🚪, and a playpen 🐕 available for extra safety.

About: After a few years away working as an engineer, I’ve realized my true passion isn’t in front of a computer, it’s with dogs! I was a top-rated, 5-star sitter in Fremont back in 2016-2017 with 38 repeat clients, and I am so excited to officially reopen my doors to the furry community. With over 20 years of experience living with and caring for dogs, I provide a "home away from home" where your pup is treated like family. 🐾 Important Note: To ensure a safe, comfortable, and manageable environment for our resident dogs and guests, I strictly only accept dogs under 40 lbs. Meet the Resident Pack I am a proud "dog mom" to two friendly pups who love making new friends: Kaka: My sweet 11-year-old rescue French bulldog and poodle mix (13 lbs). He has a crippled leg, so I am very experienced in caring for seniors or dogs with special physical needs. Panda: My energetic 5-year-old Bernedoodle. He’s a "pandemic puppy" who is well-socialized and ready to play! The "Five-Star" Backyard & Home Your dog will have the ultimate vacation in our 4,000 square foot home. We have plenty of indoor space for lounging and a large, fully fenced backyard for fresh air and supervised playtime. Personalized Care & Activity Consistent Supervision: My husband and I both work hybrid schedules and take turns working from home. This means one of us is home the vast majority of the time to provide cuddles, bathroom breaks, and attentive care. Active Lifestyle: We love staying active! Your pup will enjoy frequent walks and plenty of engagement. Safety First: Because of my engineering background, I am detail-oriented and highly organized when it comes to feeding schedules and safety protocols. I can’t wait to meet your pup and give them a fun, safe, and loving stay! Our routine is highly flexible! Whether your pup is a high-energy "pandemic dog" like my Panda or a senior who needs a gentler pace like my 13lb rescue, Kaka, I easily adjust walk lengths and play styles to match their specific energy and physical abilities. A Day in the Life at Our Home Because we work a hybrid schedule, pet care is seamlessly integrated into our day. Your dog will never be just a "task"—they are part of the family. • 8:30 AM | Morning Adventure: We kick off the day with a morning walk, followed by a nutritious brunch. • Mid-Day | Garden Play: Around noon, I provide supervised "yard breaks" in our large, fenced backyard for fresh air and sniffing. • Late Afternoon | Neighborhood Stroll: We head out for a second neighborhood walk, followed by dinner service. • Evening | Last Call: Before bedtime, we have one final backyard break to ensure everyone is settled and comfortable. Total Freedom: Your dog has the run of the house! They are welcome in any of the 4,000 sq. ft. of indoor space. Whether they want to sunbathe by a window or snooze near my desk while I work, they will have plenty of room to feel at home. Safety-First, Premium Care Your pet’s safety and comfort are my absolute priorities. I provide a secure, high-standard environment designed for total peace of mind. • Supervised Freedom: Your dog has full access to our 4,000 sq. ft. home and a large, securely fenced backyard. I personally supervise all outdoor time to ensure every guest is safe and happy. • Proactive Security: For added protection, I have security cameras monitoring the property and dog gates that can be installed as needed to create separate, safe zones for different energy levels. • Constant Companionship: Because we work a hybrid schedule, there is almost always an adult present. This allows for frequent check-ins, bathroom breaks, and 24/7 attention. • Disciplined Care: I am highly attentive to feeding schedules, medication, and specific care instructions. Whether it's managing a senior dog’s mobility (like my rescue, Kaka) or a high-energy pup’s needs, I follow your instructions to the letter.

About: I have over 8 years of hands-on experience caring for pets, including dogs of all ages, breeds, and temperaments. I’ve pet sat for both puppies and senior dogs, and I’m confident handling everything from high-energy play sessions to gentle care for older pets with mobility or medical needs. I’m experienced with basic training, administering medications, and creating a calm, safe environment for anxious or shy pets. What sets me apart is my patience, attention to detail, and genuine love for animals—I treat every pet like family and tailor my care to their unique personality and needs. Pet care is an important part of my daily routine, even while I work full time from 9am to 5:30pm. I’m able to start early in the mornings before my shift to feed, walk, and spend quality time with pets. I also offer care at my home, providing a calm and loving environment for pets while their owners are away. I’m off on weekends and have full availability then, making it easy to give pets extra attention and care. Even on busy days, I prioritize breaks to check in, offer water, and give affection. My flexible schedule and commitment ensure that every pet’s needs are met with love and consistency. Whether caring for pets in my home or yours, safety and comfort are my top priorities. I ensure all environments are clean, secure, and pet-friendly—removing any hazards and providing cozy spaces for rest and play. I follow each pet’s routine carefully, including feeding, exercise, and medication schedules, to keep them happy and healthy. I build trust by spending quality time, offering gentle reassurance, and closely monitoring their behavior for any signs of stress or discomfort. Communication with pet owners is key, so I provide regular updates and am always available for questions or concerns.

“Kaylee was so great with my boys while I had to work the holiday rush. I’m so thankful for her willingness to last minute take care of my silly dogs. Will def be using her again.”

About: I’ve cared for my own dogs and cats for over 30 years and have several years of experience pet sitting for friends and family. Since 2019, I’ve also been a Doggy Day Out volunteer with the Humane Society of Silicon Valley, taking dogs of all sizes on walks, hikes, and park adventures for exercise, socialization, and fun. I treat every pet like my own, with lots of love, patience, and attention. 👉 Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or snuggles, I’ll make sure your furry family member feels happy and cared for while you’re away. My schedule is fairly open, so I have plenty of time to care for and give plenty of attention to your pets most days and times. Your pet’s safety and happiness are always my first priority. In your home, I follow your routines so your furry friend feels comfortable and secure. Dogs always get safe, leashed walks and lots of attention, while cats get clean litter, fresh food/water, and the level of play or cuddles they enjoy. I treat every pet like my own—with love, patience, and care—so you can relax knowing they’re in good hands. 🐾

“I asked Christina to take care of my cat on a month long trip, which went smoothly in no small part due to Christina‘s diligence. She was prompt with her check ins, and was receptive to additional minor requests that I made.”

About: I have experience with dogs and cats. I grew up with dogs (small and large) and have fostered one Pit Bull Terrier. I have basic dog training skills, and enjoy taking dogs for long walks. I also fostered two cats at once: one with high energy and the other being more cautious and shy. I adore animals and am always eager to educate myself on how to better care for a pet's specific needs. I do Rover part-time. I am only available after 5pm on weekdays, but am free on weekends with advance notice. I am an early riser and can check on pets in morning if preferred and needed. In client's homes, I stay in the permitted spaces I am allowed to be in. I follow the house rules and respect the privacy and space. I understand that each pet has their own routine and quirks, so I will follow care instructions carefully. I live in an apartment building with no yard, so I walked around the neighborhood with my foster dog. I also would drive to nearby parks for a change of scenery. Both cats and dogs have access to my entire apartment except for my bedroom. I do not have central AC, but will leave my window open for dogs and have a fan blowing. I've had cats previously break my window screens, so I will leave a fan blowing on hot days. Additionally. I leave an air purifier on at all times to help remove allergens from the environment. I have wooden floors.

“Chris was amazing with our puppy August! He even took him on a walk with his doggo so he could practice pack walking, as well as other manners and obedience training during the walk. August thoroughly enjoyed his time with Chris and was able to take a good long nap afterward. August is already looking forward to his nest outing with Chris, thanks!”

“Joleen was absolutely amazing! She took excellent care of my two cats while away on a trip, was able to give my diabetic cat his insulin, and treated them like her own. I was extremely happy with the status updates and never had to worry about anything. If you need a reliable pet sitter who will give your pets the best treatment, look no further!”

About: My spouse and I are proud parents to three Golden Retrievers—Mango (13), Goldie (8), and Lychee (7). We love taking them out on adventures and watching them explore! With over 10 years of experience living with multiple dogs, we know just how to keep pups happy and comfortable. Our home also has a fenced backyard where dogs can run, play, and enjoy the outdoors anytime. I am an Assistant Professor in Kinesiology and work half time at home, and my spouse work in IT who works from home from time to time. We enjoy outdoor times, especially walking the puppies! Our time is very flexible and mainly at home to work and walk the dogs! We have a crated area for the three furry goldens, with plenty of toys and they will enjoy time playing together. Your dog will be taken out regularly for a walk, there is a trail right outside our house.

“Mallory is fantastic! Reliable, attentive, thorough, and provided detailed updates and photos. She gave the gift of peace of mind, especially as my dog is elderly and gets a variety of medicines and ointments. I would absolutely book again.”

About: I have looked after my 7-year-old cat for six years and have experience pet sitting for other cats, providing consistent feeding, litter box care, playtime, and gentle supervision. I am also familiar with dogs and have walked them before. I love meeting new pets, and I naturally connect with animals—I always want to stop and say hi when I see a dog on the street. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I regularly care for cats through drop-in visits and boarding, and I am used to adjusting my schedule to meet each cat’s needs. I enjoy creating a calm, consistent routine so cats feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away. I provide care in a calm, clean, and pet-focused environment, whether in my home or in my client’s home. For boarding, I currently offer cat-only boarding, and there are no other cats or pets living in my home at this time. I accept only one boarding client at a time to reduce stress and ensure individual attention. For drop-in visits, I follow the cat’s routine closely, including feeding, litter care, and providing updates with photos.

“Andrea looked after our 2 fur babies in a pinch and did a great job She treated and looked after our 2 cats like they were her own and our cats who are normally a little afraid of strangers loved her from the start . She ensured that our cats were fed, litter was changed ,brushed and snuggled to ensure they were not impacted by our absence Would highly recommend Andrea for your pet and we would 100% book Andrea in future when we are away Thank you for taking such great care of our animals and residence”

About: I grew up with dogs and have experience with puppies, rescues, seniors, and anxious pets. I build trust through patience, positive reinforcement, and lots of love, making every pet feel safe and at home. I grew up with a black lab since the day I came home from the hospital. She was a black lab who lived til 14. She passed away playing fetch up northern Minnesota due to a heart attack playing fetch in the lake. She entered heaven doing her greatest love. There has always been peace to that. In 2020 I rescued Aspen. She is a Great Pyrenees, English mastiff, and laborador retriever. She saved my walks by allowing me to take her for two hour long walks a day at a nearby regional trail during the pandemic. I taught her how to swim, pray, shake, kiss, and potty. From the teething puppy stage to the nap loving 5 year old stage, I have adored witnessing her transition through it all. Though she rests hard, she plays harder. When I moved to San Jose with my partner, Lucy, my 11 year old Maltese joined the family. She is full of eye boogers, but even more full of love and warm cuddles she loves long walks up to even 4 miles. Aside from that, I quickly made a name for myself as a dog sitter in San Jose. Through connections, I have landed opportunities to watch one elderly and one 5 year old red lab overnight in Monterey, five other primary dogs in the east bay from a 1 year old rescue lab, to a shy and night loving cat, to a 3 year old rescued German Sheppard, to a highly intelligent greyhound, and a foster Samoyed turned adopted puppy who went from shy, severely underweight and timid, to strong, smiley, and full of chatter. I currently have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to provide dependable care throughout the week. Whether your pet needs midday walks, overnight stays, or extra companionship, I can easily adapt to their routine and give them the time, attention, and exercise they deserve. I maintain your pet’s routine with walks, feeding, playtime, cuddles, medications if needed, and personalized care. I’ll also keep your home tidy and send regular photo updates.

About: I’ve cared for animals my entire life — from barnyard pets to beloved family cats and dogs — and I understand how much trust it takes to leave your furry family member with someone new. As a proud pet parent to a playful Frenchie and a sweet rescue cat, I know firsthand the love, patience, and consistency pets need to feel safe and happy. I’m currently taking a break from the corporate world, which means your pet gets my full attention, a flexible schedule, and prompt communication. Whether it’s walks, cuddles, or special-care routines, I treat every animal as if they were my own. One of my favorite parts of pet sitting is capturing their personality with photo and video updates so you can see how much fun they’re having. Your peace of mind — and your pet’s comfort and well-being — are always my top priorities. I look forward to meeting you and your furry companion soon! I’m currently taking a break from the corporate world, giving me the flexibility to bring joy and companionship to your pet’s day. I pride myself on being attentive, detail-oriented, and fully present to meet their needs. Whether your pet requires special care or just some extra love and attention, their happiness and well-being are always my top priorities. I look forward to meeting you and your furry companion soon!
