Cat Sitting El Cerrito

“Pooya is a wonderful and gentle person and we know we can trust him with our cat and house while we travel. Our cat is old and generally very standoffish with everyone but has warmed up to Pooya.”

“Vivi was so great with our dog. She clearly reviewed all of our notes ahead of time and approached our dog with the utmost care. She also sent over plenty of photos which we love :) Definitely planning to book with Vivi in the future!”

About: I am a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes, from small breeds to large dogs, as well as cats, birds, and reptiles. My experience includes providing specialized care and rehabilitation support for dogs with amputated legs, helping them adjust to mobility challenges while ensuring their comfort, safety, and well-being. I understand that every animal has unique physical and emotional needs, especially senior pets and those requiring extra attention. Having grown up surrounded by animals, I have developed a genuine love and appreciation for pets of all kinds. I have also cared for kittens and a pregnant cat, giving me experience with animals at different stages of life. Whether your pet is energetic and playful, shy and sensitive, or needs additional assistance, I provide patient, gentle, and attentive care tailored to their individual needs. My goal is to treat every pet like a member of my own family and give pet parents peace of mind knowing their companions are in loving, capable hands. Pet care is something I genuinely enjoy and make time for in my daily routine. I offer flexible scheduling for dog walking, drop-in visits, and overnight pet sitting in clients’ homes, including weekdays, evenings, weekends, and holidays, depending on availability. I enjoy spending quality time with animals and making sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and affection while their owners are away. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I provide care in your home, where your pets can remain comfortable in their familiar environment and maintain their normal routines. I carefully follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, exercise needs, and any special care requirements. I have experience caring for dogs of various sizes, cats, birds, reptiles, and pets with mobility challenges, including dogs recovering from amputations. I treat every pet with patience, kindness, and respect, and I provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident your furry family member is in good hands.

About: I have cared for pets my entire life. My family had dogs and I owned a horse that I cared for and paid for since I was 13 until I left home for college. St that point I gave her to a person that would take care of her as I would. Since that time I have adopted cats as I lived in homes that did not allow dogs . I had to get my dog time in caring for friends and neighbors dogs whenever I could I’m currently working but have a flexible schedule. Caring for or playing with your pet will be my pleasure and your gift to me. I love all dogs and cats but will admit I miss having a dog of my own I can care for any cat in my home. I would prefer to sit for dogs in their own environment. I will care for your friends with just as much love and attention as you yourself would

I maintain a routine that includes walks, meals, and enrichment activities to keep them happy and engaged.

I provide the same level of care and attention, including feedings, walks, playtime, and any additional needs such as medication or special instructions. Whether at my home or yours, I focus on creating a stress free loving atmosphere where your pets feel safe and happy.

About: Hi! I’m Jessica. Animals have always been a big part of my life from a young age. I have a 2-year-old Golden Retriever named Winnie, and I also regularly foster animals through the Oakland SPCA and the Milo Foundation. Being a pet owner myself, I know how hard it can be to leave your pet with someone new, so I care for every animal the way I would want my dog cared for. Whether your pet needs a walk, a drop-in visit, or just some company while you’re away, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. Can’t wait to meet your best friend <3 I have plenty of time to stop by for a visit, or take your pup on a walk! I live and work in the area. I have a fenced in yard, very friendly puppy who loves to meet other dogs/cats. I prioritize your pets normal routine and want to make sure above all else they are comfortable.

About: I’ve taken care of several dogs and cats throughout the years. I love showering them w/ the play and food they need. Excited to help! I’m currently working full time! I can support with some walks on the weekdays and weekends. Pet sitting varies with my schedule, but I’m open to it! I make sure the area is safe and clean. Everything is put away, so the environment is great for dogs and cats to relax and play in the area.

About: What sets me apart is my deep understanding of pets' unique needs, gained through years of hands-on experience with animals of all ages, breeds, and temperaments. Whether I'm caring for playful puppies, energetic adults, or senior pets with special requirements, I tailor my approach to ensure every animal feels safe, loved, and understood. There is a long line of veterinarians in my family therefore I understand the importance of quality care. My goal is to provide peace of mind for you and a second home for your furry friend, where they’ll receive the same level of care and affection they get from you. Fun fact I hope to become a veterinarian after school! As a college student-athlete, my schedule is flexible. I'm available every day aligning pet care around my class and practice times. Any changes or commitments are communicated in advance for seamless planning and reliable pet care. I am a student-athlete at Berkeley and am looking for a part-time job to spend time and help out with your furry friends. I know your pets mean the world to you, which is why safety is my top priority and I am committed to providing the best care for them so you can rest assured that they are taken care of while you are away.

About: I've taken care of both cats and dogs for more than 10 years. After growing up with my own rescue pitty I've been trying to fill the void of being pet-less since she passed. I like to take my dogs for frequent walks and engage in play-time when they have extra energy. I've also done cat-sitting for friends and coworkers, from drop-in feeding to house sitting. There's no challenge that I don't feel up to when I get to spend time with your furry children. I'm a recent college graduate who is living at home in Berkeley and working part-time as a substitute teacher. I signed up for Rover not for the money, but to be able to spend more time around cats and dogs while I wait for the perfect time to adopt my own furry children. I'm used to both high-energy and low-energy animals. I'm always the person who befriends street animals so I know how to be patient and earn your animals' trust. I closely follow the owner's instructions to ensure that your animals have the most comfortable stay while they await for your return. Dogs requiring high-energy outings and multiple walks don't deter me. The more the better :)

About: I’ve cared for dogs, horses, cats, fish and other animals for decades, both professionally and for friends and family. I currently have 2 Jack Russell’s. I am retired and my time is my own, and very flexible. Dogs are a great fit for my daily hiking routine and my lifestyle. When caring for pets in a clients home I follow their instructions to the letter. At my home pets have access to the entire house.
