“We have used Elena twice now, each time for 10 days drop-ins to primarily feed our dogs. She communicates well and very reliable. I feel at ease when we were away that our fur babies have been fed. Highly recommend Elena!”

About: Hi, my name is Mecca, and I’ve been around dogs my entire life, with over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for and working with them at my fathers boarding and training facility. I grew up helping train dogs and have also worked in professional dog facilities, so I’m comfortable with pups of all sizes, breeds, and energy levels. Whether your dog is super playful or more shy and relaxed, I know how to make them feel happy, loved, and most importantly, safe while you’re away. I’m located in the Hayward area, conveniently near both airports, which makes drop-offs and pick-ups easy for traveling pet parents. I also live close to a community dog park with a big grassy area where dogs can run, play, and get their zoomies out safely. My home is very dog-friendly, with a spacious backyard covered in artificial turf so your pup won’t come home with muddy paws. There’s always fresh water available and plenty of shaded areas to keep dogs cool and comfortable, especially on warmer days. I keep a clean, calm, and supervised environment so every dog feels right at home. Your dog will get lots of playtime, affection, and personalized care while they’re with me.

I’m also happy to help with small household tasks during drop-in visits, such as refilling water, cleaning litter boxes, watering plants, or bringing in packages. Since I care for my own two dogs every day, I’m very familiar with maintaining consistent routines and making sure pets feel comfortable and well cared for. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priority. I carefully follow the owner’s instructions regarding feeding schedules, leash use, routines, and any special needs your pet may have. During walks, I focus on safe and attentive handling, making sure dogs are secure on leash and comfortable at their own pace. For drop-in visits, I make sure pets have fresh water, attention, and a calm environment while you’re away. I’m happy to provide updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is safe and well cared for.

“Angela did an excellent job taking care of my two cats, one of them requiring two pills per day for his GI lymphoma. She even took care of a perishable delivery which came for me while I was gone. I recommend Angela highly.”

About: I’ve taken care of Princess for 12yrs . I grew up with a big family of pet lovers . My home for years have been the one everyone comes to on the weekend to bbq in and ofc all our furry babies are running around. I have a flexible part time job so I am free early mornings and throughout the day to go play with your pets and take them out. I also have a big home and yard if they need to come over to not stay home alone . I have a home with all fenced yard and I no longer have anymore pets , so they are free to roam around in the backyard or if they’re inside dogs they can definitely have in and out access all day to cuddle inside when they want or go get some sun and play. I’m definitely mindful on making sure you feel comfortable with me in your home if needed and would ofc go over to play and take care of your pet in the comfort of their home.

“Sharon did an amazing job taking care of my 2 cats and 2 kittens. She sent me daily updates and ensured my cats babies were well cared for. Really appreciate Sharon and would highly recommend her for any cat care opportunities.”

About: Until two years ago I started taking care of furry children, although all my life I have had dogs in my house since I was a child I have learned to take care of them, bathe them and identify their body language I currently work independently through the Lyft app, which allows me to manage my own time. Thanks to this flexibility, I can devote the necessary attention to the care, play and well-being of your dogs during the week. I am available from Monday to Saturday, and on Sundays by appointment, which allows me to organize myself to offer responsible, attentive and constant care. I want to comment that, at the moment, I cannot offer care during the day at home. However, I am available at night, especially for small dogs and cats. In addition, I offer walking service, and I always guarantee a healthy, safe and warm environment, where the puppies will receive attention, care and respect. I am available to coordinate schedules and adapt to the needs of each pet.

“Complete peace of mind knowing my animals are loved and cared for when we have to be away for an extended time. So grateful for Dana Chloe! 🙏”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of medium size to small since I was 9. Family friends, family. I do bath and walk my dogs daily. I’m not working any job at the moment so I am free daily or weekly. However some weekends I’m not free do to family visits. I have a fenced yard where they can run around and play or use the bathroom the German shepherd passed away so the only dog around is the Yorker he’s friendly and likes to play but he mostly likes to just be on his own.

“Rawnna is awesome! She took care of our three cats for two weeks, and they seem so happy and well-taken care of! She was totally understanding of my anxiety about having a new person in my house, and sent the best photos of them playing every day. She did a great job and I would definitely hire her again.”

About: As a pet sitter, my experience revolves around maintaining a comfortable, safe, and enjoyable environment for pets while their owners are away. The day typically begins with feeding according to the pet's dietary schedule, ensuring that water bowls are always filled with fresh water. Regular walks and playtime are essential to keep the pets physically active and mentally engaged. Beyond basic care, I also take time to bond with the pets, offering companionship, affection, and positive reinforcement to ease any anxiety they might feel from their owner's absence. My goal is not only just to take care for the pet, but also to make sure they feel loved and secure until their family returns. Both me and my wife are self-employed and working from home full time. We have plenty of time to walk with the dogs at least two times a day, and play with them throughout the day. I don't have my own pets in the home right now. I have a fenced yard that can prevent pets run away. I always check my surrounding before I opened the door make sure no pets can run out. I always keep the leash on while I am walking the dog.
