Pet Sitting Gladstone

“Summer did an excellent job in making sure Chunk was happy and well cared for. Chunk can be shy with new people and she took it slow and made sure he knew she was there when he was ready! We would definitely book with her again.”

“Avalon was fantastic with our senior pup, Sadie! The communication and notes we received while away were very detailed. We will definitely book Avalon again!”

About: I’m a lifelong animal lover, having cats growing up and later volunteering with dogs at rescue orgs. My time as a training class assistant for Puppy Manners and New Dog Basics at the San Francisco SPCA gave me valuable skills in positive reinforcement training, socialization, and handling dogs of all temperaments. Beyond dogs and cats, I also have experience with horses, having owned and leased several. I’m comfortable with feeding, turnout, mucking stalls, brushing, and general equine care, making me a well-rounded caregiver for multi-pet households. What sets me apart is my ability to care for pets at all life stages—from energetic puppies learning the ropes to senior pets needing extra patience and comfort. Whether it’s structured walks, reinforcing good manners, or providing a calm and loving presence, I tailor my care to each pet’s unique needs. With a deep understanding of pet behavior across species and a passion for ensuring their happiness and well-being, I go beyond basic care to provide engaging, enriching, and compassionate pet companionship. After our Husky mix’s TPLO surgery in Fall 2024, I’ve decided to make pet care my main focus. Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and this shift allows me to dedicate my time and energy to providing top-quality care for pets in my community. With a flexible schedule, I’m available for daily walks, drop-in visits, overnight stays, and customized care based on each pet’s needs. Whether it’s a midday walk, feeding and playtime, or extra TLC for pets recovering from surgery, I tailor my services to fit both routine and special care requirements. My experience with dogs, cats, and even horses means I’m comfortable handling a variety of schedules—from structured training sessions to free-spirited outdoor adventures. No matter the time of day, I ensure pets get the attention, exercise, and companionship they deserve. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets, whether in my home or my clients’ homes. At my home, we have a fully fenced yard, providing a secure and spacious area for dogs to play and explore. Your pup will also have built-in companionship with our two friendly dogs, ensuring plenty of socialization and fun. For exercise and enrichment, we have scenic trails nearby, perfect for peaceful walks in the woods—giving dogs a chance to sniff, explore, and enjoy the great outdoors. In my clients’ homes, I respect each pet’s unique routine and environment, providing attentive, reliable, and compassionate care. Whether it’s reinforcing training, maintaining feeding schedules, or ensuring a calm presence while you're away, I treat every pet like they’re my own. No matter the setting, I focus on creating a safe, stress-free, and enriching experience for pets—so you can have peace of mind knowing they’re in loving hands.

“Emily is amazing! My (old)pups love her! She gave consistent great care with meds, food, water plus fun pics. I trust her gentle kindness and excellent communication, giving me peace of mind. I have booked her multiple times and will do so again:)”

“Damita really helped us out because right after we left on vacation our power went out. Then our flight home was delayed and Damita quickly agreed to add another visit to our booking to care for our dog. She continuously updated us and asked how she could be of more help. We’re really impressed with her kindness and how she went to extra mile for us. Thanks Damita!”

“Carolyn has been our go to rover for a few trips now. She is reliable, easy to contact, and I feel I can trust leaving our dog and home in her hands. Thank you!”

About: Hi! I'm Nate, and if you've got a dog who needs a walk, a cat who needs a buddy, or a pup who just wants a solid hang — you've found the right human. I didn't just grow up around animals — I grew up with them. We're talking dogs, cats, birds, and full-on farm animals. At any given point in my childhood, our place was basically a petting zoo with a roof. I've hand-fed, cleaned up after, played with, and genuinely loved more species than most people have on their bucket list. These days I'm a proud dog owner myself, and I've also fostered for multiple rescues and organizations — including the Puerto Rico Dog Fund and Many Miles from Home Animal Shelter — so I know firsthand what it means to trust someone with your fur baby. What does all of that experience mean for your pup? It means I'm calm in chaos, patient with personalities, and I actually enjoy watching animals just... be themselves. Whether your dog is a zoomies-at-6am type or a "I will sniff this one blade of grass for 45 seconds" type — I'm here for all of it. My goal is simple: to be the person your dog loses their mind over when they hear my car pull up. Walks, hangouts, check-ins — whatever your pet needs, I bring the energy, the patience, and the genuine love of animals to back it up. Your furry friend won't just be in good hands. They'll be having the time of their life. 🐕 I work from home, so your pet gets real quality time — not just a quick pop-in between meetings! I'm also an early riser, so mornings mean walks, fresh air, and getting those zoomies out before most people even hit snooze. Whether I'm at your place or mine, I follow your rules — feeding schedules, routines, preferred spots on the couch, all of it. You know your pet best and I'm here to keep things consistent and comfortable for them. If your pet stays with me, they'll have a fully fenced backyard to roam and my 4-year-old smaller German Shepherd to show them the ropes — she's basically the ultimate icebreaker.

“Shianne was great to work with! I appreciated that she set up a meet and greet to talk through our cat’s set up. She is very personable and reliable and I would love to have her take care of our cat next time we are away.”

“Kimberly takes such wonderful care of my deaf/blind old pup, Ollie and my shy kitty, Louise! She had dropped by to care for them a few times and I absolutely adore the photos she sends. I can just tell that both of my animals are comfortable and curious with Kimberly. I know it’s because Kimberly treats them like they were her own. It is so clear that she loves animals and really will go the extra mile (or few) to make sure the animals are cared for. Five stars and would highly recommended!”

“Kat was fantastic with my cat, forest. She was caring, kind, and communicative. I felt confident the entire time that forest would be well taken care of. I will go back to Kat in the future! Thank you!”

About: Hi! I’m Alicia, and I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember. I know that trusting someone with your pet isn’t just about finding a sitter—it’s about finding someone who will care for them like family. As a pet owner myself, I understand that every animal has their own personality, routine, and needs. Whether your pet loves long walks, playing fetch, exploring outside, or simply curling up for snuggles, I’m happy to provide the care and attention that helps them feel comfortable while you’re away. My experience goes beyond just dogs and cats. I’ve also cared for chickens, ducks, and other small animals, so I’m comfortable with a variety of pets and personalities. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and committed to following your pet’s routine, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise, and any special instructions. I’ll also keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages so you can relax knowing your furry family member is happy, safe, and well cared for. I can’t wait to meet you and your pet! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because caring for animals is already a part of my everyday life. As a pet owner myself, I’m used to planning my day around feeding schedules, exercise, playtime, and making sure every animal gets the attention they deserve. I enjoy spending time outdoors, so daily walks and active play are something I genuinely look forward to. Whether your pet needs lots of exercise or simply a calm, loving companion, I’m happy to adapt to their routine and provide the care they’re used to. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away, and to give you peace of mind knowing they’re in caring, dependable hands. Your pet’s safety and well-being are always my top priority. I know every pet has unique needs, so I take the time to learn their routine, personality, and any special instructions before every visit. I believe communication is key, so you can expect regular updates, photos, and messages while you’re away. I’ll always treat your home with the same respect I would my own and strive to provide a calm, safe, and loving environment where your pet feels comfortable and cared for. Whether we’re out on a walk, playing in the yard, or relaxing at home, you can trust that your pet will receive the same patience, kindness, and attention I’d want for my own animals.

“Sophia was able to accept a last minute booking for me when my friend got sick and couldn’t check on my kitty! She was responsive and followed my directions exactly. Will definitely book her again!”

About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember and have over 5 years of experience caring for dogs and cats. I’m responsible, patient, and attentive, and I treat every pet like my own. I love going on walks, playing, giving plenty of cuddles, and making sure each dog feels safe and loved while their family is away. I currently work on weekends, so I have plenty of availability during the week for pet care. I’m flexible with my schedule and can make time for walks, playtime, feeding, and giving your pets the attention and care they need. I prioritize your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness at all times. I follow your instructions carefully, keep a clean and secure environment, and make sure pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, and care. I’m respectful of your home and will keep you updated so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands

About: I grew up with many animals in my household and have cared for dogs my entire life. I currently have a 9 year old pitty that I’ve cared for since she was 6 weeks old and she is my best friend. Ensuring each animal is comfortable, happy, and taken care of. Staying active is important and am able to work within all types of schedules. If your pup likes to chill and relax a bit more, then that’s ok too. Able to administer medicine as directed as well. I’m currently in a career transition and have a very flexible schedule. Happy to work with all your needs and ensure you and your animal feel comfortable. All animals deserve to feel and be safe. Making sure to keep them in their routine and have plenty of play and pets. Following instructions from each owner is important because you know your animal best. Happy to accommodate however I can.

“Took good care of my old man!!”
