Pet Sitting & Drop Ins in Fairway Park, Hayward, CA

About: I absolutely ❤️ animals and have "always" had pets in my life from the very beginning. I've cared for SO many different animals in my life; such as: dogs, cats, bunnies, turtles, fish, etc. Over my adult years, I've cared for friends and family members pets when needed. 5 years back, I took on the responsibility of caring for grandpa's dog due to his increasing illness. Bottom line, I love animals and want them all to get the love and attention that they want and deserve whether from their parent/parents or from myself in the short amount of time they grace us with in this world. I'm currently a freelancer, so I make my own schedule. Thus, I can move things around to better fit the needs of you and your fur babies if needed. Then, I don't travel much and can be there for those who do. Safety is of the utmost importance to me because it's what I'd want for all my babies, weather it's my 2 legged or my 4 legged child. I'd make sure things that may be harmful are always put up and put aways. Before walking, I'd make sure the area is safe and animals are always leashed up for the entire walk.

“Brianna took very good care of our cats while we were away and they seemed quite affectionate with her. She was very consistent and followed all our instructions. She made sure our older cat ate and our younger cat got lots of play time. She allowed us to enjoy our time away knowing our babies were well cared for.”

About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for cats of all personalities—from playful kittens to shy, reserved cats. I’ve boarded cats in my home, done drop-in visits for multi-cat households, and always make sure pet parents feel connected while they’re away. I send regular updates with photos and videos so you’ll never have to wonder how your pets are doing—you’ll see they’re happy, safe, and well cared for. In addition to cats, I also have experience with dogs and even tortoises, so I’m comfortable caring for a wide range of pets. Whether it’s playtime, feeding, or just keeping your pet company, I’m here to give them the attention and love they deserve. Since I work part-time evenings, I have plenty of daytime flexibility for pet care. I enjoy making cat care part of my regular weekly routine. I create a safe, calm environment by keeping areas clean, securing doors and windows, and sticking to the pet’s usual routine so they feel comfortable and cared for.

About: I’m a full-time nursing student with a natural love for animals and a calm, dependable presence. I’ve helped care for pets for over 6 years, including cat sitting for my in laws, dog sitting for friends, administering basic medications, and keeping pets company while their humans are away. I’m especially great with cats (I have two of my own!) and enjoy quiet drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, litter box cleanup, and giving pets the affection and attention they need. I also love dogs and am happy to help with walks, check-ins, or house sitting. As someone studying nursing, I take responsibility seriously and will treat your pets like my own. I understand how important it is to feel confident and comfortable when leaving your furry family in someone else's hands. I’m a full-time nursing student with a flexible schedule that allows me to provide reliable and loving pet care. I’m typically available for drop-in visits, walks, and house sitting on weekends, as well as weekday afternoons and evenings. My schedule varies slightly every 8 weeks or so due to classes and clinicals, but I always communicate clearly and can block off days I’m unavailable in advance. I love fitting pet care into my routine — it’s a great way to unwind and connect with animals! I especially love cats, and have done tons of research and pride myself in knowing cat behavior. I always prioritize the comfort and safety of the pets I care for. Whether I’m visiting your home or offering house sitting, I follow instructions closely, keep things clean and secure, and make sure your pets feel safe and loved. I’m experienced with cats and dogs, including giving meds, cleaning up accidents, and keeping them engaged and stimulated with play and activities. You can trust me to treat your home and your fur baby with the respect they deserve.

About: Since being overseas, I helped care for a wide variety of dogs, of plenty of sizes, breeds, ages and temperament. I pride myself on my willingness to work with your pet to find a connection that works for all of us. I am currently a student with my days typically free, as I schedule my work times on the weekends, so during the week pet care is a top priority. As long as I get a rundown of things you and your dog are comfortable with, I will be sure to stick to it. I strive to create and enriching and safe environment for your fur babies.

“Nilab is so great! She has watched my cats twice now and is so good at getting them comfortable and out of their shell. They can be nervous with new people especially when I am gone but Novak is so kind and patient and it’s been great to see my pets warm up to her. She’s is very communicative and sends great updates as well. I can have so much peace of mind knowing Nilab is taking really good care of my cats. Thank you!”

Communication is key and going over your pets preferences is a base for your peace of mind while away from home. Sending updates and pictures to make you feel at ease is a must.

About: I have taken care of my own puppies for a long time since I was younger as well as my families puppies as well. It brings a joy to me to take care of other puppies as well. It fits into my daily routine because it helps me keep a balance as well with my personal life to hangout with pets that bring me joy and also help serve my community! I always love to care for my pets with the things they love. Joy, treats, love, and toys that they love as well so they have the best experience!

About: I’ve had dogs since I was 7. But I can’t have any right now cause I live in an apartment that doesn’t allow them. I miss that feeling of just being with a dog! So this is a little chance to get a couple hours with a dog. I trained my dogs and gave experience with big dogs I go running/walking in the morning or afternoons. I would just be adding your dog to my routine! Some company on a walk is always nice! I’m extremely careful with dogs! I know they like to get in things especially walking around. But I’m really careful with that kind of stuff and I would treat your dog as my own and if it’s something I wouldn’t want anyone to do with my dog I don’t do it.
