Pet Sitting & Drop Ins in Glen Eden, Hayward, CA

“Katie was awesome with my fur baby, I was very happy with the care and attentiveness she took! I will definitely book with her again for future trips!”

“Joleen is such a sweet human and pet sitter! She goes above and beyond to care for the animals she watches over. She swept up litter and cleaned out Jack’s wet food dish everyday! She played with Jack and was respectful in our home! Jack can throw a fit and poop outside his box when we leave and she was so sweet in taking care of his temper tantrums! She was thoughtful enough to bring in our Amazon packages as well! Defintiely would rebook with Joleen”

“Alex has been a wonderful care taker for my dogs, cats and chickens. My dogs love staying with him. I trust him and I really like the way he can also trains my dog. I definitely recommend Alex to care and supervise your fur babies.”

“This was our first time working with Dani and we'll have absolutely no hesitation in booking her services again. Dani looked after our two cats, twice daily 30 min drop-ins, for 6 days. We had an initial meet-and-greet a few days before where it was instantly clear that she understood cats. She didn't go in to pet them immediately, let them sniff around her, and spoke in gentle, soothing tones. Whilst we were away Dani sent us detailed report cards aboiut what had been done (water bowl refresh, feeding, litter, play) as well as the mood of each cat and some details about their play. She also sent us a TONNE of excellent photos: of the litter and food but also of our cats playing. It was really clear from the photos that the cats were relaxed and comfortable and that she really understood how to engage them in play! Dani was an excellent cat-sitter, highly recommended! :3”

“Bella has cared for our animals in our home when we travel for the last year and a half. She has experience with our reptiles, cats and dogs of all sizes. Our bully loves her! She was immediately comfortable with our pets…big and small. We do have an elderly dog that needs medication twice a day as well and Bella has always given them without issue. As you can imagine, it takes a while to get everyone fed and situated but she handles it as a PRO. We can’t speak highly enough of this young lady and her skills.”

“Jerri did a great job playing with Kianna while my wife and I were out on a long trip. Jerri provided photos and videos to keep our mind at ease that our little elder cat was have fun and had good company”

“Luna loved having a drop-in from Sylvia!”

About: I have been a dog owner for most of my life, but do not currently have one. I miss having a dog and the companionship they provide. This is why I am hoping to help take care of yours when needed :) I was a dog groomer for about 3 years and loved every minute of it! I am currently employed, but I am available in the mornings and evenings. I am also available during breaks throughout the day and all day on Fridays and Saturdays. I am open to providing drop-in care, dog walking, and grooming services - whatever you need for your beloved pet. We can discuss when, where, and how you're comfortable with me providing these services.

“Cindy was such a loving sitter, my puppy Buddy was always in such a good mood after they would spend time together. She made sure Buddy was well taken care of during their walks. She went above and beyond and would help with cleaning his paws if they had a wet or muddy walk. She’s clear with communication, responsive, and attentive. I highly recommend Cindy to anyone looking for a pet caregiver in the area.”

“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!”

About: Hi, I’m Kaila—a lifelong animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. What started as helping friends and family has turned into a true passion for providing pets with a safe, loving, and engaging environment while their humans are away. Why Choose Me? 🐶 For Dogs: 🐾 Experienced with All Ages & Special Needs – Whether it’s caring for a playful puppy, administering medication to a senior dog, or supporting a pet with special needs like epilepsy or anxiety, I have hands-on experience adapting care to fit each dog’s unique personality and health requirements. 🐾 Training Experience – I attended puppy training classes with Pimi, my former roommate’s shelter mix, and learned key training techniques in obedience, socialization, and leash manners. I also helped train a reactive pittie using positive reinforcement and high-reward treats to build confidence and trust. 🐾 Diverse Pet Care Background – From raising a litter of 11 puppies to helping my sister’s dog through pregnancy and birth, I have experience in every stage of a dog’s life. I’ve also helped socialize a high-energy cattle dog, managed a shy rescue pup’s trust-building journey, and cared for Norwegian Elkhounds with extensive grooming needs. 🐾 Reliable & Trustworthy – I take pet care seriously and ensure every dog feels safe, happy, and well-cared for. Whether it’s a long walk, structured play, or a cozy evening on the couch, I tailor my care to fit your dog’s personality and energy levels. 🐾 Outdoor Adventures Available – If your pup loves exercise, I offer hikes (with owner approval) to keep them engaged and happy. A Little More About Me & My Experience: 🐶 Dogs I’ve Cared For Include: • A pittie with reactivity triggers (Blu) • A shelter mix with epilepsy requiring daily meds (Pimi) • A cattle dog with high exercise needs (Dash) • A Norwegian Elkhound show dog with specialized grooming needs (Molly) • An elder Norwegian Elkhound requiring daily meds and support standing, etc. (Lucy) • A shy rescue pup that needed trust-building (Wiley) • A Ridgeback puppy with high energy and some resource guarding (Fern) What You Can Expect from Me: ✔️ Lots of love, playtime, and attention tailored to your pet’s personality ✔️ Medication administration (if needed) ✔️ Regular updates & photos so you never have to worry ✔️ Walks, exercise, and enrichment activities (for dogs) ✔️ Playtime, enrichment, and respect for routine (for cats) ✔️ A clean and safe environment I’d love to meet you and your furry friend! Let’s set up a meet & greet so I can learn more about how to make your pet feel safe and happy while you’re away. 😊🐾 I currently work from home, which means I have a flexible schedule and can provide attentive care to pets who need companionship throughout the day. 🐶 For Dogs: Whether it’s keeping an anxious puppy company, ensuring a senior dog sticks to their routine, or providing regular walks and playtime, I can adjust my schedule to fit your pet’s needs. I’m also available for longer stays if your dog requires more attention or consistency. 🐱 For Cats: Cats thrive on routine, and I can provide care that aligns with their schedule, whether it’s feeding, playtime, or just quiet companionship. If your cat is shy, I’ll take the time to build trust at their pace, and if they’re active, I’ll make sure they get the engagement and enrichment they need. Let me know if you’d like me to tailor my care to any special requirements your pet may have—I’m happy to accommodate! 😊🐾 I prioritize maintaining a safe, comfortable, and familiar environment for every pet I care for, whether in their home or out on a walk. My goal is to reduce stress, provide enrichment, and keep pets happy while their owners are away. 🐶 For Dogs: I follow each dog's routine closely, from feeding schedules to preferred walking routes. I use positive reinforcement techniques to encourage good behavior, and I have experience with leash manners, basic obedience, and confidence-building for anxious or reactive dogs. If your pup enjoys extra activity, I can also take them on hikes (with owner approval) for a fun and enriching experience. Safety is always my top priority—whether that means using a secure harness, monitoring off-leash time in approved areas, or making sure your pup feels comfortable before engaging in play. 🐱 For Cats: I understand that cats have unique needs and personalities, and I take the time to ensure they feel safe and at ease. Whether they’re social and playful or more reserved, I adjust my approach to match their comfort level. I have experience caring for senior cats, administering medication, and engaging younger, high-energy cats with interactive play. I also ensure litter boxes stay clean, feeding routines are followed, and they get plenty of attention (or space) based on their individual needs. Let me know if you’d like me to tailor my care to any special requirements your pet may have—I’m happy to accommodate! 😊🐾

About: Greetings, I currently have 1 small dog and a rabbit and can't think of a better way to earn a little extra money. I have over 30 (combined) years of dog ownership and fostering, as well as zoo keeping experience. I've worked at the Indianapolis Zoo, the Lincoln Park Zoo in Chicago and have volunteered at both the SF Children's Zoo and Oakland Zoo's California Trail. I am certainly available to care for any additional small animals, or farm animals, that you may have! I am currently available all days of the week and would love to help out with any animal care needs that you have. I look forward to hearing from you and thank you for your consideration. Liz I am currently not working full time and have plenty of time to play with, walk, feed and spend time with your fur-kids. I am available after 2pm on Sundays as I volunteer at the Oakland Zoo from 8-12, and have an open schedule M-Sa. I could potentially host your dog at my house provided they would be ok with my house rabbit. I have a fenced in yard and a little sand box and dog area for them to hang out in.

“Elena has been helping with my 8 month old puppy by checking in on her, taking her for walks, and providing me with dedicated and invaluable support. I highly recommend her!”
