House Sitting Grabtown

“Chelsea was an amazing sitter for our 3 dogs. She is kind, conscientious and reliable! Will definitely be booking with her again in the future.”

“Octavia is awesome. She house-sat for us for 2.5 days. It was the first time our dog had stayed without us and he is really anxious. Octavia kept working to get him comfortable, cooked for him, sent us updates constantly and was really flexible in adjusting things to keep him less anxious. Our go-to person for Dudley!”

“Fiona was amazing! She housesat and looked after our dog, Meeko, who adored her. She took him out for long walks everyday and took him on errands and to go hang out with her friends etc. (we told her that was ok). She updated us with photos and was respectful of our house. We were so comfortable knowing Meeko was in good hands. Highly recommend her!!”

“Deborah was great! She watched my dog two dsys in a row. The second day my dog was waging his tail and wanted belly rubs from her. She sends updates during the stay so you will be informed how your pup is doing. She's a great sitter if you are in Half Moon Bay for the weekend.”

Vanessa M.

“Kellan was above and beyond expectations. She did an amazing job. I would definitely book her again and my fur babies loved her!”

Lynn D.

“Coco is the best!!! She went above and beyond for my family and our pup! He had the best time and she regularly checked in with us. Can’t wait to rebook”

Fiona M.

“This was our first time using Rover and we were so happy by choosing Casey. He immediately wanted to schedule a "meet and greet" at the house so the dogs can be comfortable. Soon after, we left for our wedding and our babies were in his hands. We were worried at first, but Casey reassured us instantly with photos of the doggies loving life. He always checked in with us, and sent us photos. We had such a great experience with him and Rover. I recommend Casey for any dog child owner in the area. His knowledge, attitude, and comfortability is reassuring :D Thank you so much! -The Rileys”

“We are so glad that we had someone as thoughtful, diligent, patient, and dog loving as Katie watching our pups! She went way above and beyond what we could have hoped for from amazing frequent updates (making us feel like we were still there with them), taking care of them exactly how we would, and taking care of the apartment so well (it looks more clean than when we left it). The piece de resistance were thoughtful report cards with such specific details that we’ll treasure. WOW. We would gladly have Katie watch our pups again in the future ?”

About: I’ve lived with animals my whole life; at both houses we had at least 3 cats and 3 dogs at a time with the occasional hamster, rat, snake, or rabbit. I’ve adopted most of my pets from shelters, and have helped raised two litters (one was kittens, the other was puppies). Having a wide variety of animals introduced me to a wide array of personality types from friendly and cuddly to moody or shy. These experiences have taught me to have an abundance of patience and understanding, and to be able to adapt to individual needs. The animals I’ve watched/raised/trained have been all different breeds and sizes; from a 3 pound chihuahua to a 85 pound German/Pitt mix. I’ve taken care of older dogs, who need extra care, as well as sick dogs and/or dogs with preexisting conditions who require medications once, twice, or three times a day. Not only have I helped with my animals, but I’ve watched other peoples houses/pets as well. I’m pretty much a homebody, so aside from a couple hours each day, I’m available and flexible and can hangout with your pets for as long as you need. I’m a great communicator too, so if an issue were to arise, I will reach out right away because your pet’s health and well-being is my top priority. I’m currently self-employed, so my schedule is open and flexible. I do prefer a couple of days of notice in advanced, unless it’s an emergency. I will take care of your pet however you need me to. When it comes your pets health and well-being, I know you know what’s best, and I will never disrespect your wants or needs. If you need me to house sit, I will respect your property. I’m very neat, organized, and clean (slightly OCD) so I would never leave a mess.

“We’ll hire Alexander again! He was thankfully available relatively last minute before our vacation after our previous sitter fell through. He was communicative and shared updates and photos of happy, tired pups throughout the week.”

Caroline N.

“Alexandria took amazing care of our dog and house for the week! She was very responsive and gave us a lot of confidence that our dog was being taken care of really well while we were gone. Our dog loved her and we couldn’t recommend her more!”

About: As a fellow dog parent, I know just how important it is to find someone who'll love your pup like their own. I've learned so much from raising my sweet Cavapoo over the past 4 years - including navigating separation anxiety and training challenges with help from the awesome folks at Cali K9 and Zoom Room. All these experiences have made me a patient, understanding caregiver who knows every dog is uniquely special. Your furry friend will have a blast joining us for adventures in our local parks and trails, where we keep tails wagging with plenty of fun and positive reinforcement. I've had the joy of caring for many pups with different personalities, and I always make sure each one feels safe, happy, and right at home with us. Let's give your dog the loving attention they deserve! I'm thrilled to share what a typical day would look like for your pup! I've marked my calendar to show the days I'm home and fully available to focus on caring for your dog. Since I work from home on these days, I'm here to give your furry friend lots of attention and care. We follow a fun routine that includes at least three energetic walks daily, plus plenty of playtime with our collection of toys to keep everyone happy and engaged! I do pop out briefly for my gym sessions, but I'll always keep you in the loop about my schedule. Your dog will never feel lonely - they'll be right by my side throughout the day, getting all the love and attention they deserve! I maintain a clean, pet-proofed apartment where your furry friend can relax without any worries. For bedtime, I have a dedicated crate in the study where my dog sleeps, and I have an extra crate available if your pup is crate-trained - though they're also welcome to find their comfy spot anywhere in the apartment! Safety is my top priority, so I take extra precautions like always keeping doors securely locked and making sure the apartment is tidy and free of anything that could be harmful. When we head out for walks in our quiet, safe neighborhood, your pup will always be properly leashed, and I even use special light-up collars for our evening strolls. You can rest easy knowing your dog is in a secure, peaceful environment with someone who takes their safety seriously

About: I have my own 7 year old corgi whom I love to take on social outings, and have always wanted to own a ranch to foster dogs and other animals. for now, this will do🤓 I enjoy popping in to see my friends’ dogs while they’re at work to take them out for potty breaks & play, and watching my friends’ dogs when they go on trips~ Currently on a 3 month LOA from my nursing job, but am planning on taking a break afterwards due to burnout. Because of that I’m flexible and able to adjust to whatever needs pets may have! Currently I wake up, walk Toast (my corgi), hangout with him for a bit and then run errands if there are any. I can then pop in for a drop in/walk elsewhere (and bring toast too possibly)! He’s an integral part of my life so he’s always involved if he can be! My husband is an anesthesia MD resident at Stanford so he’s often at the hospital with long hours — all that to say he’s not very high maintenance as well so I have more wiggle room with my schedule :) I love dogs, and will always treat yours like I treat mine :) Will leave Toast at home if your dog is not up for socializing, but can also bring Toast if your dog needs some doggie time.

“Lisa was fantastic! She dog sat for me for 2 days very last minute when I was in a pinch. My little guy was going through a rough time, but he did so great with Lisa! She took such great care of him and kept me well updated along the way. She really helped us both. I will definitely be reaching out to Lisa again.”

About: Hi, I’m Tamer. I recently relocated to San Carlos from Phoenix, Arizona, and I’m excited to become part of the local community. I’ve been around dogs for most of my life and have more than 20 years of experience caring for family pets and helping friends and relatives with their dogs. I understand that pets are family, and I take pride in providing a safe, comfortable, and caring environment while owners are away. I offer boarding for small and medium-sized dogs and focus on giving each pet personalized attention, regular walks, potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of affection. As a working professional, I value reliability, communication, and trust. I’ll provide photo updates throughout your dog’s stay so you can have peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for as if they were my own. I work a professional Monday through Friday schedule from 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM and have evenings and weekends available. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to provide regular walks, potty breaks, feeding, playtime, and plenty of attention while pets are in my care. I recently moved to San Carlos from Phoenix, Arizona and enjoy being active and spending time outdoors. Whether your dog is staying for a weekend or a few days, my goal is to provide a safe, comfortable, and stress-free experience while keeping you updated with photos and messages throughout their stay. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I live in a clean, pet-friendly home in San Carlos and only accept a limited number of dogs at a time so each pet receives personalized attention. I carefully follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, and any special routines provided by owners. I provide regular walks, potty breaks, and exercise while maintaining a calm and safe environment. Communication is important to me, so I send photo updates and messages throughout each stay to give owners peace of mind knowing their pet is in good hands.

About: My family and I had dogs, cats, and rabbits. That was before I started living independently, now I've taken care of dogs and cats for friends or neighbors as a favor, and I noticed it brings me value being able to help others with their pets. I'm proactively looking to train dogs, and train cats to live comfortably with other animals (just basic stuff for now) 🤩 I'm currently working in Real Estate most of my work can be done by phone, laptop or videocall. So usually I'm available to take care of your pet at your place, walk your dog outdoors (my place is not available since my landlord doesn't allow pets) and overnights stay 😄 I like to take your dog for a walk/run, also I like being respectful with the neighborhood by picking up your dog's stuff, at home feed them and play around with them to burn energies 💪🏽. If it's a cat, more than happy to play your cat, feed them and or just pet them on my lap 😁 (I'm not allergic to cats btw 🐈)

About: Having grown up with a dog, what sets me apart is my focus on high-needs care and consistency. Your pet can be my 'co-worker' for the day, receiving constant attention and structured play. I'm comfortable with medication schedules and slow-paced mobility walks. You can expect frequent photo updates and a calm, pet-first environment As a remote professional, I offer the 'work-from-home' advantage: your pet will have a constant companion throughout the day which is ideal for most dogs. Your pet will always be treated like family! We start with a slow introduction, ensuring they feel safe and confident. I provide a structured day with frequent potty breaks, interactive play, and plenty of lap time. When sitting in your home, my priority is maintaining your pet's 'normal.' I follow your feeding and exercise schedules to the minute to minimize anxiety. I also take great care of your space, possibly watering plants, and ensuring your home is secure and tidy so you can return to a happy pet and a peaceful house.

“This was Keith’s first time with our dogs and home. He asked a lot of good questions before and during our time away. He sent us pictures and updates daily and left our house in good condition. Much appreciated, Keith!”

Michael V.

“Audra is very responsible and caring not just with Emi but also with our home, she is very communicative and send us updates about our dog and Emi loves her. I would recommend Audra to anyone :)”

About: I’ve owned pets all my life. I had a dearly loved dog that I saw through from puppyhood all the way to thirteen years old when she passed from cancer. I’ve had two cats since they were kittens, one of which had hyperthyroidism which required daily treatments. He has since passed away from kidney failure at seventeen. As a team with my sister, we personally trained our dog — and even the cats — using books to learn how to bond with the animals. I’ve not had a conventional job working with animals, but I am my friends’ go-to for pet sitting. I’ve done extended stay pet sitting (ten+ days) involving overnight care. I’ve handled daily medications for cats and dogs and worked on leash training for a friend’s dog as well as house training puppies. I currently live with an elderly cat and three freshwater aquariums. I’m available most days of the week and on weekends. I’m a freelance artist and my work is easy to time manage around. I always clean up after a pet and make sure they have easy access to water at all times. I know how to keep dogs inside a fenced area and keep inside cats from running out the door.
