Pet Sitting Frick

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and genuinely love caring for them. I have a 8 year old Miniature Pinscher, Norman, who has taught me a lot about patience, routines, and making dogs feel safe and comfortable in their own way. (I don’t have him with me full time) I’m comfortable with dogs of different personalities and energy levels, and I’m happy to follow your pup’s usual routine, whether that means long walks, playtime, plenty of cuddles, or simply keeping them company. I’ll treat your dog like my own and keep you updated while you’re away. I am home in the morning and evenings on the weekdays. I am free to take your pets out on walks every couple hours or as needed. I prioritize safety and trust by maintaining a clean, secure environment for pets. I ensure their routines are followed, provide plenty of playtime and affection, and always keep a close eye on them to prevent any accidents. Your pets will feel comfortable and cared for in my home or yours. I have a fenced in yard as well

“We are a returning customer with Maia. Her attentiveness and consistency with Tater was assuring while we were away on travels. Maia, good luck on your schooling!”

“Vania was so sweet with our 8 mo old puppies! We felt at ease during our travels. She took them on long walks and even gave them a bath since the days were quite warm. Thank you again Vania!”

“Korin was amazing with our dogs. They can be a little hesitant of strangers when they first come but she did an amazing job adapting to their personality and caring for them. Will book again!”

“Sydney was absolutely amazing! She took great care of our boys during her drop-in visit and kept us in the loop with real-time updates. Her communication was excellent, and it was clear our pets were in great hands. We couldn't have asked for a better experience and would book with Sydney again in a heartbeat! Highly recommend!”

“Mellisa was great! Our dog had surgery recently and he needed a little special attention which was unplanned! Mellisa jumped and provided great care for both my dogs. They were relaxed and happy when we got home. I’ll definitely use Mellisa again as well as recommend her!”

About: Through having dogs myself, dog walking, and taking care of friends dogs for the past 9 years I have experience sitting, walking, and playing with dogs. In the past year I have adopted the sweetest dog named Cariño, a 35 pound terrier mix, and have cared for them through their puppy stages and now into adulthood! I primarily have experience with dogs weighing 10-60 pounds and dogs of all ages. I'm good at taking control of a situation and can also understand when a dog is scared, upset, or just needs a break. I have a car so I can come to you and live walking distance from Lake Merritt. I'm currently working part-time and have plenty of time to go on hikes, walks, or check in on your pup! I am flexible during weekdays and am unavailable on weekends currently. I have experience raising my own currently one and a half year dog. I can easily crate your dog and leave them well-rested. I do not let dogs go outside unleashed unless there are specific instructions to do so. I work part-time and have a flexible schedule so I am happy to make things work with your pet needs whether it's morning, middle of the day, or early evenings. I am not accepting pets in my home because we have a dog and a cat who are a bit sensitive to other pet friends.

“Stephanie did a great job taking care of our two cats. She sent us pictures each day she visited. She was very prompt and did exactly what we asked of her. Our cats' feeding is a bit complicated and she was very accomodating. We will definitely ask her to pet-sit again.”

About: I have taken care of dogs and own animals since I was 15 years old. I have fluctuated from having dogs, cats, and even chinchillas! I have used rover in the past for my own animals and know what it is like to be a fur baby mama and how it can be hard and scary to find the right person for the job! I treat every animal like my own, I give them love, patience and attention! All of my animals have been rescues and have all had their own life struggles that has only made me a better mom to them. I work full-time, but it is very flexible and allows me to go and let my dogs out when needed or do drop ins. Weekends, evenings and some Fridays I am completely off work and able to engage in your animals. Safety is a priority! I have had my share of bad Rover experiences and would never want animal parents to go through that! Knowing fully what is needed and what can be done to provide the safest and best care to your animal is priority

“Kristi is amazing... My four doggos absolutely adored her! She was willing to come to my home last minute for a meet and greet and drop in on the weekend to check on them. Kristi has a special way with animals and is very caring. I received live updates and photos during her visit which left me feeling relieved knowing they were in good hands. 10 stars. I highly recommend her for your pets needs:)”

About: I am an all around animal lover with extensive experience in the care for and training of cats and dogs. Pawsitive reinforcement and clicker training have been my focus. I have worked in a doggy day care/boarding facility in San Francisco and gained hands-on experience on caring for 20-50 dogs at once. I have always cared for my friend's and family's pets as well. I also worked at a doggy day care in Fremont, CA caring for about 15-20 dogs on a daily basis including overnight care. Why I love dog sitting I have been an animal lover all my life. My first memories are those in which I was in contact with animals. My passion for dogs came to me as a child and over the years I learned many training methods and hope to help all dogs in need of attention/love/training. About my yard I currently have no yard. My experience administering medication I have experience in administering various medications and would be please to help take care of a special needs pup. I have lots of experience with dogs that get siezures as well.

About: I am new to the Bay Area and while I am working on a certification I am hoping to hang with some pets. I can’t actually think of a more fun way of earning money. I was raised with dog and cats of all kinds. I have had ones with health issues and ones that need LOTS of exercise. My current dog needs lots of walks, which I really enjoy. I grew up with a few different pups, including one with seizures and one with diabetes. I’m familiar with having to give reluctant pets meds and shots. I have a senior cat currently and am happy to sit and pet. Im looking forward to caring for your pet as if it were my own. I am new to the area due to my husband being transferred with the Coast Guard to the area. I currently have a normal 9 to 5 and looking to supplement my income. I love dogs and cats so much I cant think of a better part time gig. I am adaptable and an happy to care for your pet in any way they need. Keeping them on a normal schedule can be important and I understand that. I particularly love taking dogs on walks, especially in the nice FL weather (which may be the evenings after the sun sets in the summer).

“Dane did a great job watching my kitties while I was away. He communicated clearly, asked all the right questions, and took some stunning photos of my cats to keep my mind at ease (seriously he should be an animal photographer). Highly recommend!”

About: Have peace of mind when you leave your family in my care. I am a lifelong animal lover & pet owner. I am a responsible adult with great credit and integrity. I work remotely and I have a lot of freedom within my schedule, but my passion is working with animals. You can trust that I will communicate and treat your pets as my own, meeting their needs. I have a long and trusted history helping my family & friends with their pet care needs. From simple walks, short/long term care, training help and check ins. Being a pet owner myself, I understand the stress that comes with finding trusted care for our furry friends. I prefer to care for your family in your home to avoid any undue stress being in a new environment. Trust in me...& be happy. I work remotely. I am a Quality Assurance Specialist. Working from home allows near constant supervision. I go on 3 walks a day with my dog. I can work in your home as long as you have a good wifi connection. I prefer to watch in my client's home to avoid any extra stress and keep your pet comfortable while you are away. I can make some exceptions. When I watch in my home, I do have a fenced in yard and easy access for dogs with a dog door. I am great with communication and instructions. As a quality specialist I pay a lot of attention to detail and caring for your pets will be no different.
