House Sitting El Sobrante

“Irina is wonderful. Very reliable and professional. My dog adores Irina and I can tell feels really cared for with her. I can tell how good he feels with her with how he runs to her side when she arrives and how it takes him a moment to realize I’ve come home (because he is cuddled up with Irina instead of watching the door). I feel completely at ease and confident when he’s in her care.”

About: Hi! I'm Nicole, and I've been caring for dogs through Rover for nearly ten years. I know how important it is to find someone you can genuinely trust with your pet, and I treat every dog in my care as if they were my own. I've had dogs my entire life, including Labs, rescues, and senior pets, and have experience with dogs of many different ages, sizes, personalities, and energy levels. Whether your dog loves long walks, exploring new trails, playing fetch, or simply curling up for a quiet afternoon, I'm happy to meet them where they are. I work primarily from home, which allows me to provide lots of companionship, regular potty breaks, exercise, and attention throughout the day. I love spending time outdoors, and dogs in my care typically enjoy multiple walks each day, along with plenty of rest, enrichment, and affection. I know leaving your dog with someone else can feel stressful, so I make communication a priority. You'll receive regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pup is safe, happy, and well cared for. I'd love to meet you and your dog. Please don't hesitate to reach out with any questions! I work primarily from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to spend plenty of quality time with the pets in my care. I do teach a few yoga classes in the evenings, but pets are typically left alone for no more than about three hours at a time. I'm available on weekdays, weekends, and holidays, and I provide overnight house sitting so your pets can stay comfortable in their own home and maintain their normal routine. My goal is to make your time away as stress-free as possible for both you and your pets. I take the time to learn your pet's routine and preferences and follow your instructions closely, from feeding schedules and medications to favorite walking routes and bedtime routines. I'm experienced caring for puppies, senior dogs, rescue dogs, and pets with special needs, including administering medications when needed. Dogs are always walked on leash unless you've told me otherwise, and I prioritize safety, consistency, and calm care at all times. I'll also send regular updates and photos so you can enjoy your trip knowing your pets are happy and well cared for.

“Anita was fantastic while watching Hobbes, very communicative and caring for her while I was away. Everything was nice and orderly when I came back. I’ll definitely look to book with her again next time I have to travel! Thanks Anita ?”

About: I have taken care of pets for over 10 years around the world! Neighbors, friends, families and acquaintances have all trusted me with the livelihoods of their loved ones. I can administer medication, go on as many walks as needed, drive or walk to the dog park or just cuddle on the sofa if you pet loves that too! I work as a school teacher and am an online grad student but am able to come and go as I please so my schedule is quite flexible! I am very mindful of your pets care, safety and security while they are in my trust. I can crate your pet, calm them down and care for them as per your instruction.

“Elizabeth did a great job. She's very responsive, sent pictures and video of her time with our dog each day. We will absolutely using her in the future. Highly recommend!”

“Fuliang was always quick to respond and took great care of our dog. He was super flexible and even came early and stayed later than planned to accommodate our flight schedule.”

“Alexandra recently stayed at our house for 5 days and care for our two dogs. Our older dog is 16 and is blind and deaf. He requires meds twice a day and needs to be carried outside to pee and poop. Our other dog is an energetic goofball who barks when excited and requires a great deal of reassurance. Alexandra was a pro. She was unflappable. Throughout the week she sent updates every day and pics of happy dogs! The house was left in perfect condition. We couldn’t be happier!”

About: Over the last few years I've become my friends, and friends of friends, go to person for pet care! I've always loved animals and grew up with pups in the home. During COVID I started sitting for friends and colleagues of mine who had to return to the office. My flexible WFH schedule gives me plenty of time to go on walks, feeding, and of course play. I also have a pup of my own and am comfortable working with puppies. I work remotely so my schedule is extremely flexible! Here is a rough idea of my schedule, although there is definitely room to move things around: open Mondays, Tuesday’s early morning , open Fri-Sun. I treat every pet that I am with as if they were my own! Every pet has different needs and I pride my myself on noting the needs of each one that is in my care. I always ask owners about house rules as well as their pets like and dislikes so I can make sure I'm keeping them safe and happy. As a pet owner myself, I only hope to give the owners the peace of mind knowing their pet is getting the best care and attention!

About: We have been caring our rescued chihuahua mix since 2018. We have also help our friends and families babysit their dogs when they go on vacation. My partner and I currently working remotely at home; thus, our schedule is flexible. Once we are done with our work, we have plenty of time to serve your pet. I will treat your pet like my own pet. I will make sure your pet has access to water easily and have meals at their regular time.

“We feel so fortunate to have found Linda to help with taking care of our 16 week old golden retriever puppy. I’m extremely protective of our puppy, but felt instantly comfortable with Linda. Linda is warm, playful, reliable, punctual and has a heart of gold. Her experience with dogs and other animals shines right through. She was able to train our puppy on all the important skills, take her on yard walks, put down for naps and love on her for hours, while we were away. I can’t wait to have Linda come back. What a find! Can’t recommend her enough!”

“It was a pleasure to work with Patricia, who stayed at my house for five days and took care of my eight-year-old mini doodle, Ruby. Patricia was highly communicative leading up to her stay, sent daily pictures of Ruby while I was on my trip, left the house spotless, and even helped out with our parakeets. When I met Patricia during our meet and greet, I could see that she is a truly lovely and kind person. I look forward to working with her again. Patricia is highly trustworthy, responsible, and most importantly took great care of Ruby, I cannot recommend her services highly enough!”

Jessica R.

“Hollie is the best. She's thoughtful, attentive, and communicative. She truly went above and beyond when some big challenges arose during her stay -- and our dog was still so well cared for. Thank you Hollie!”

“We joined Rover hoping to connect with someone who is kind, responsible, caring about animals and above all, patient, who we could forge a relationship with that would be durable for the long-term. Ikeena has all of these qualities. As a family that travels regularly, whose family and friends have generally all grown-out of the idea of a week at our place as a mini-getaway, we are so thrilled to have connected with her. We got to know each other over zoom and some schedule walks and impromptu hellos and Ikeena dealt with our nerves of building trust with aplomb. Never were we made to feel silly for wanting to meet again or another walk or for having a several pages long doc about staying at our house and caring for our sweet little brown boy, Chicks. During her recent stay here we barely worried about a thing. Ikeena kept in touch with us regularly and Chicks seriously enjoyed being not just cared for, but spoiled by her. She went above and beyond!”

“Rachelle is prompt and responsive! She's very pleasant to deal with, she pet sat our dog for 2.5 days in our home while we were away. My pup was very calm and relaxed when i came home, which was great, since he can be very anxious at times. I will definitely contact her again, the next time we need to be away from home!”
