Cat Sitting in Evergreen

About: I’ve been a pet parent myself for 10 years, caring for my own dog while looking after multiple cats. I’ve looked after friends and families animals so I am very comfortable stepping into new environments. I’ve gained hands on experience with pets that require medication (including pills, liquids, injections, etc). I’ve cared for animals of all ages and temperaments, from energetic puppies to senior animals who require a little extra patience. I love meeting each pet where they’re at. Whether it’s a gentle cuddle session or an energetic walk, i’ll match your pets energy making sure they feel loved and happy. I’m based in East San Jose and happy to travel a bit farther!! I currently am training for my upcoming hockey season! Monday-Thursday I’m available for morning visits before 1 PM (as early as 7 AM), and for afternoon/evening visits anytime after 3PM. On weekends, I’m fully open and can do multiple visits, walks, or overnight stays. I plan my week around confirmed bookings and make sure your pets care never overlaps with something else. When caring for pets in your home, my goal is to keep their routine as normal as possible so they feel comfortable. I always leave the home clean and like to send updates (whether it’s a text or a photo) after visits so you know how things are going. If anything comes up (a change in behavior, a mess, or something out of the ordinary), I’ll let you know immediately. I treat every pet and home like i’d want mine to be treated.

About: It’s great to provide dog and cat sitting with people who have trust in me! I reciprocate on the pets’ energies, from docile to energetic. I have two dogs of my own that receive a lot of attention and care. I currently have summer availability to provide all-day attentive care, meaning that I can offer specific medical care if needed, frequent walks or dog park visits, and lots of cuddles! Based on your needs, I do well with following the consistent routines, as well as offering daily photo and written updates for assurance of the pet’s well-being.

About: I have 10 years of experience caring for a variety of pets as well as having a love and passion for animals my whole life! I help neighbors, family, and friends watch their furry friends when they are in need. I love staying active and what better way than spending time with animals! I am currently on summer break so I have tons of free time throughout the week and weekends! I’m more than happy to be on call and available for walks, hikes, at home sitting, or anything else to help with your furry friends! I had two dogs myself and experience with all types of breeds! I actively care for my neighbors dog and cats whenever they are away on vacation throughout the year. I am reliable, attentive and compassionate about animals.

About: I’ve owned two dogs since they were puppies who now 12 and 11. The older one is still very sort and incredibly clever. The younger I’m pretty sure is just a cat pretending to be a dog. I also have experience watching larger dogs that belonged to family members as well. I have also house sat cats and kittens for extended period of time. Currently, I work full time. I let my dogs out in the morning and they guard the house while I’m away. Once I get home, they get their cuddles and walks (usually about a mile). On the weekends we try to go to our relatives to let them play in the backyard together. I don’t tend to have others’ pets in my home because my dogs do not like to share their space. However, when I’m at others’ homes, I follow instructions that are left behind to the T. I always reach out if I need clarification or have any questions.

About: What sets me apart is my strong focus on safety, consistency, and personalized care. I don’t take a one-size-fits-all approach—every pet has different needs, and I make sure to follow their routine closely so they feel comfortable and stress-free. I’m very attentive to behavior and can quickly spot changes that might indicate discomfort or illness. I also have experience working with puppies and senior pets. With puppies, I reinforce basic training like potty routines, leash manners, and positive behavior. With senior pets, I’m patient and gentle, making sure they’re comfortable, keeping up with medications if needed, and adjusting activity levels to suit them. Communication is another area where I stand out—I provide regular updates, photos, and detailed check-ins so owners always know their pet is safe and well cared for. Overall, I aim to give pets a calm, structured, and safe environment while giving owners complete peace of mind. Pet care is a consistent and important part of my daily and weekly routine. Each day, I schedule time for feeding, fresh water, exercise, and one-on-one attention to make sure pets are comfortable and well cared for. I plan my day around their needs, including walks, playtime, and any specific care instructions like medications or training. Consistency, communication, and attention to detail. I track feeding, bathroom habits, and any unusual behavior. I make sure pets get enough interaction and mental stimulation. Lots and lots of love and attention. Safety is always my main priority as well. I provide daily updates of pet/care with video/photos.

“Our cats were in such good hands with Olivia! This was the first time we used a cat sitter, so we were naturally a little nervous, but she immediately put us at ease. She was incredibly gentle and patient, and really understood how to care for both our shy cat and our energetic kitten. We appreciated the updates with lots of pictures from each visit and the care she showed them while we were away. We would absolutely trust Olivia to take care of our cats again in the future and highly recommend her!”

“Super friendly and nice. She took care of our cat, gave him pets and played with him while we were away. I will definitely book her again when we need a cat sitter :)”

About: For most of my High School education I had watched The Dog Whisperer religiously, which helped to ingrain my love for animals especially towards canines. I slowly began to pursue fields in which I could help surround myself with animals and careers pertaining to animals. I started after high school and became a volunteer at the San Jose Animal Care Services located on Monterey Rd. in San José. I was working on the side while going to school as I volunteered to help compensate the volunteer hours. As a designated dog walker I was introduced to small toy dogs down to 4 pounds up to larger breeds ranging upwards of 100 pounds. I am located in a single-family residence in a suburban enclave in Evergreen. We have a fenced backyard with lots of space to stretch out and enjoy the outdoors. The local elementary school is a 5-minute walk away, featuring its own walking trail and a fenced grass area. Animal care is my second nature. I can understand body signs and cues when it comes to how an animal is feeling and the best way to approach them. I've held up against big dogs all the way down to the little ones. Each animal is unique. The most important thing is love and respect.

About: I do not do pet under 1. I do what I can to make your pet feel happy. Let me take care of your pet. Work Tuesday -Thursday . I can drop in 2 times a day. If you need more I will talk about it. I will do Friday and Saturday depending on my schedules. Hi! My name is Tammy. I've been dog-sitting for friends, family, neighbors, and referrals, and I've discovered how much I love spending time with my furry friends. I've decided to turn this passion into a job. I'm available for overnight stays or visits with your family pet (dogs under 15 pounds only). I enjoy spending time with my family, babysitting my sisters' young kids, going to the arcade, and watching movies. I understand it can be difficult to trust someone new with your dog, but I promise to care for your pet as if they were my own.

“Catherine took such good care of our two bunnies while we were on vacation! This was my first time using Rover, and she helped make the process super easy. She was so patient and kind (even when the bunnies made a big mess!) She also provided thorough updates, lots of photos, and sweet notes that we really appreciated. I’d highly recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter! Thank you so much Catherine!”

“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 have a genuine passion for dogs and I am a full time dog groomer. I grew up with dogs and other kinds of pets so this is all familiar. All of my time is spent with dogs from the time I got to work to when I come home to my 2 dogs. I grew up with dogs and have been working with them for years so i have can fulfill all your needs on puppies, training and patience. As a dedicated pet owner, integrating pet care into my daily and weekly routine is a top priority to ensure the health and happiness of my beloved furry companion. I ensure to keep my dogs active and healthy all the ways I can. I approach every opportunity with boundless enthusiasm and a sense of adventure. I firmly believe that dogs are more than pets; they are cherished companions, and I treat them as such. Whether it's engaging in stimulating playtime or embarking on exciting walks. I make sure your dog feels loved and content during their time with me.

“Nikisha is very friendly and did a great job helping me take care of my aquatic turtle (red eared slider) I will definitely book with them again!”

“Courtney was great taking care of my dog for 10 days (19 visits). She provided good service and daily updates after each visit. This was the first time she took care of my dog and I came back to a happy pet and clean house. I would hire her again.”

About: I’ve been the go-to pet person in my circle for years! Friends, family, and neighbors call me when they need someone reliable, patient, and genuinely excited to hang out with their pets. Whether it’s walks, drop-ins, overnights, or keeping up with detailed routines, I take pride in making pets feel safe, loved, and completely at ease while you’re away. What sets me apart from other sitters is the level of attention and emotional awareness I bring. As an empath, I don’t just “watch” pets, I learn their personalities. Are they high-energy zoomie champions? Velcro dogs? Secret snack negotiators? I adjust my care style to fit *them* so they stay happy and stress-free. I have experience with puppies who need structure, consistency, and patience (potty training, leash manners, crate routines), as well as senior dogs who deserve a slower pace, gentle handling, and medication support. I’m also very comfortable with anxious or shy pets and use calm, positive approaches to build trust at their speed. My goal is simple: happy pets, lots of tail wags, and owners who can relax knowing their furry family member is in caring, capable hands. Plus, you’ll always get photo updates because I know being away is the hardest part :) My schedule is thoughtfully balanced between two of my personal businesses—pet care and swim instruction. I’m a professional swim instructor during parts of the day, which means I may be in the water or teaching lessons for a few hours at a time, depending on the day of the week. Because of this, I build my pet care schedule very intentionally to make sure every animal in my care gets consistent attention, exercise, and quality time. Pet care isn’t just something I “fit in”—it’s a core part of my work and something I genuinely care about. Balancing both businesses allows me to stay active, responsible, and fully present in the care I provide. My care style really comes down to one thing: keeping pets happy, comfortable, and on their normal routine, just with me stepping in as their temporary human. In a client’s home, I treat your space with the same respect I’d want for my own. I stick closely to feeding schedules, walk times, medications, play routines, and any “house rules” your pet knows (or thinks they can bend). I keep things clean, calm, and secure so your pet feels safe in their familiar environment. If pets are staying in my home, they get a cozy, supervised environment with lots of attention, exercise, and downtime based on their energy level. I make sure introductions, rest spaces, and routines are handled thoughtfully so everyone feels comfortable. I'll most likely end up snuggling your pet too! :)

“Professional, top notch. Brandie jumped in at the last minute. She checked in regularly, and even provided photos. We didn’t worry at all about our diabetic, blind, deaf Senior Citizen - Brandie wasn’t at all fazed by the insulin injection schedule! (What a relief.)”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs & cats of all shapes and sizes since I was 10 years old. Over the years, friends and family have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and look after their beloved pets because they know I treat every animal like family. I'm a current college student, so days I do not have classes or work I am free! I can do things from walks to house sitting- as I can do my assignments online. I have a routine I stick to with my pets, so you can trust I will stick to yours word-by-word! I have 3 rescue animals, one cats and 2 dogs. One of my dogs was a rescued lab beagle, and I know exactly how to work around his quirks! My other dog is deaf- so I do have experience waking him up gently!

“Thank you so much Chloe for taking such good care of the kitties! I loved getting your photos while away - seeing the kitties having a great time with you really eased any concerns I had about being away”

“Laura did an amazing job taking care of my Roxie! She was able to come through last minute when a different sitter fell through at the last moment before I had to leave town. She always informed me when arriving and if there were any issues. I would highly recommend her especially if you have a senior dog. She took extra good care of her!!”

About: I’ve been around dogs since I was young and have cared for many different personalities over the years. I regularly help the family I used to live with by watching their dog whenever they travel, which shows the trust people place in me. Dogs tend to feel comfortable with me quickly, and I focus on gentle handling, consistent routines, and making sure every pup feels safe, relaxed, and loved while their owners are away. I work 6-8am and 3-7pm so I will home the most of the other time, and my husband get off after 5, there will be people in the house the most of the time! For cats boarding, our home has cat trees, cozy resting areas, and a Litter-Robot for a clean, low-stress environment. Cats are free to roam the house as long as they get along with our own cats. I always supervise introductions and make sure every cat has safe spaces to relax or hide if needed. Also if your cat feel like staying alone, we have a separate room set up ready as well. I’ve included photos of part of our home so you can see the environment your cat will stay in. For dogs, I provide drop-in visits or boarding, where dogs are most comfortable and able to follow their normal routines.
