House Sitting Gateway West

“She went above and beyond for my kitten!”

About: I've taken care of my dogs, friends' dogs, and house-sat for dog owners. I’m experienced with dogs of all energy levels and temperaments. I currently work Sunday through Wednesday, and I’m fully available Thursday through Saturday. On those days, I can give your pet my full attention and focus on their care, routine, and needs. On Sunday through Wednesday, I am available before 8 am and after 8 pm. I provide dog sitting and dog walking with a strong focus on safety, trust, and maintaining each dog’s normal routine. I am comfortable with small dogs and large dogs who need a lot of exercise.

“Jasmine was very caring to my baby kitties. She regularly sent us updates on how they're doing and what they're doing. My kitties are shy and Jazmine was patient and gave them time to get accustomed to her. After they opened up to her, the kitties loved rubbing up to her and eventually cuddling with her. She also left my house as clean as it was when I left. I'm so glad I found Jazmine. Now I know who to book next time. 😊”

“Patricia is amazing and she is our go-to sitter. She takes great care of our dogs and house. She is highly reliable and I feel completely at ease knowing my pups are in her hands.”

“Steele took care of Jack while we were away. He spent most of the time at home and with our dog. Kept our home tidy too. Will use him again for sure. Thanks Steele!”

“Jnaessa took loving care of my three critters (a needy dog and two cats). She gave them love and attention including extra attention to my fussy eater old lady cat to get her to eat. She sent me pictures daily. The house was neat as a pin when I arrived home. I will definitely be booking Janessa again.”

About: I’ve been a lifelong dog lover and am the proud dog mom of my own Husky–Goldendoodle, Nagi. Caring for her has given me experience with daily walks, exercise, feeding, enrichment, grooming, and understanding different dog personalities and needs. Friends and family have trusted me to care for their pets, and I know how important it is to provide a safe, loving, and consistent routine while owners are away. In my professional career, I manage programs for the State of California, so being dependable, organized, and communicating clearly comes naturally to me. I bring that same level of responsibility and care to every pet I look after. My goal is to make every pet feel comfortable, loved, and cared for while giving owners complete peace of mind. I’m available for morning, afternoon, evenings, weekend, and holiday pet care. I’m happy to provide walks, drop-in visits, and overnight house sitting depending on my schedule. I always keep my calendar updated and only accept bookings that allow me to give your pet the attention, exercise, and care they deserve. Communication is very important to me, and I’ll send regular photo updates throughout each visit. I know pets feel happiest when they can stay in their own familiar environment. I carefully follow your pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, medications (if needed), and any special instructions. I’ll respect your home as if it were my own and make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I provide frequent photo and video updates so you can travel with peace of mind, knowing your furry family member is in caring and reliable hands.

“The is was my first experience with Rover and leaving my Lulu with anyone and it was FANTASTIC! I could not have picked anyone better than Mooney! He treated Lulu like she was his own dog. Trips to the dog park, photo shoots, updates, Mooney was exceptional! It is such a relief to know that I have a great dogsitter now, who is easy to communicate with and loves Lulu as much as I do!”

“If I could give 10 stars I would! Not only did Kelcya and Elizabeth take fantastic care of our baby and kept us updated - they left an amazing snippet of Sookie’s behavior while we were gone. Already booking with them again!”

About: I’ve trained and cared for many dogs throughout my life, from agility training high energy puppies, to senior canine hospice. I’ve been a volunteer with the ASPCA since December of 2023 and have deployed to their cruelty recovery center in Ohio multiple times as a volunteer kennel technician. I currently work as a veterinary assistant at a small practice in Woodland, Ca I am currently working full time Tuesday-Friday 8am-5:30pm as a veterinary assistant, and Saturdays 8am to noon, so when I’m not at work, I love to spend my time giving your pet(s) the attention and structure that they deserve! I can stay overnight with your pet, or do daily check ins starting at 6 am. Any time I leave your pet unattended I can provide them with a safe form of enrichment to keep them busy.

About: I may not have dogs of my own but I sure do love being around them. Before moving I use to volunteer at an animal shelter and I loved it there just to see how dogs were able to have at least a couple of minutes of happiness from pups to seniors. I also foster kitties and have two of my own! I am currently attending nursing school, so can’t fit a full time job into my schedule. This is the best option because it’s something I love and I can still complete my studies! I would first build trust with the animal ensuring they are not frightened by me. Aside from that I love for the owners to tell me more about their pet to allow me to best adjust my skills to accommodate the pet.

“We are so appreciative Ryan could last minute accommodate our request. We were desperate to find someone a week out from our trip as our normal dog sitter cancelled on us, and he was able to spend the weekend at our house. Our animals were well taken care of and he left our house in great shape! He even washed the bedding and took out the trash which was so nice. I definitely would rebook. Thanks again!!”

About: I’ve had animals my entire life and caring for them has always been second nature to me. Today, I have one dog and three cats of my own, and I’ve also cared for larger animals like horses, so I’m confident handling pets of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I spent five years working at a high-end, high-occupancy pet resort, where I cared for a large volume of dogs and cats in a fast-paced, detail-oriented environment. That experience taught me how to read animal behavior, manage different temperaments, and provide safe, attentive care even in high-pressure situations. I genuinely love what I do, and I know how hard it can be to trust someone with your pets. I’m the same way with mine. That’s why I show up with patience, reliability, and real care every time. If you’re looking for someone who treats your pets like their own, you’ve found the right person. I work full-time Monday through Friday, which makes me a great option for weekend trips and getaways. During the week, I have a hybrid schedule, so I’m available for early morning or late evening walks and check-ins on specific days. I care for both your pet and your home with a lot of respect and attention to detail. I’m big on cleanliness and keeping things in order, so you can feel at ease while you’re away. I also understand that accidents happen, and I’m always prepared to quickly clean up things like potty accidents or throw-up to keep your home clean and your pet comfortable. For walks, I’m extremely vigilant and safety-focused. I pay close attention to surroundings, other dogs, and your pet’s behavior at all times. Your dog’s safety is always my top priority, and I make sure every walk is secure, structured, and stress-free.

“Katie was beyond amazing. She went up and beyond our expectations. She followed our rules with our babies. She fed them and took them in the backyard to play ball with them. Even took them on a few walks around the neighborhood. She kept updating me about them and sent me lots of pictures while we were away o”

“Cheryl was so wonderful to work with! She took great care of my pups and left our house exactly how we left it. I am so happy to have found a dog sitter we trust, highly recommend.”

“Another amazing visit with Holly! Our 2 cats and 1 senior dog adore her, and Holly’s attentiveness and care allows us to leave town and not worry about our fur babies one bit. Thank you, Holly!”

“This is my second time booking RJ to watch my dog at my place and he was amazing once again. He sends daily pics and updated me on how my little girl was doing which provides a lot of peace of mind, especially having a senior dog. Whenever he had a question he would reach out which I appreciated.”

Desiree S.

“Jenna was absolutely wonderful! Extremely communicative and kept us updated which I really appreciated. She left our home in tip top shape and our pets were very well taken care of. We’ve already rebooked her for her services! 11/10 recommend”

Maddie S.

“Shelby is wonderful! We have a very energetic 8 month old puppy, she walked him every day and handles him perfectly. She's also very easy to communicate with, has a great laugh and takes things in stride. I'll be hiring her again for sure!!!”
