Pet Sitting Harrington

“Melissa is a wonderful sitter! I could tell Poppy was happy when I got home. Melissa was communicative, careful, pleasant, and took lovely pictures. I would invite her to sit again any time!!”

About: Through having dogs myself, dog walking, and taking care of friends dogs for the past 9 years I have experience sitting, walking, and playing with dogs. In the past year I have adopted the sweetest dog named Cariño, a 35 pound terrier mix, and have cared for them through their puppy stages and now into adulthood! I primarily have experience with dogs weighing 10-60 pounds and dogs of all ages. I'm good at taking control of a situation and can also understand when a dog is scared, upset, or just needs a break. I have a car so I can come to you and live walking distance from Lake Merritt. I'm currently working part-time and have plenty of time to go on hikes, walks, or check in on your pup! I am flexible during weekdays and am unavailable on weekends currently. I have experience raising my own currently one and a half year dog. I can easily crate your dog and leave them well-rested. I do not let dogs go outside unleashed unless there are specific instructions to do so. I work part-time and have a flexible schedule so I am happy to make things work with your pet needs whether it's morning, middle of the day, or early evenings. I am not accepting pets in my home because we have a dog and a cat who are a bit sensitive to other pet friends.

“Kasey was amazing! Very communicative and took great care of our little guy 🐱. So grateful to have found her to watch Noshi over the holidays.”

“Amazing as always! My pet is happy & Diana followed the instructions perfectly. She even went above and beyond by removing some garbage outside. No complaints!”

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and genuinely love caring for them. I have a 8 year old Miniature Pinscher, Norman, who has taught me a lot about patience, routines, and making dogs feel safe and comfortable in their own way. (I don’t have him with me full time) I’m comfortable with dogs of different personalities and energy levels, and I’m happy to follow your pup’s usual routine, whether that means long walks, playtime, plenty of cuddles, or simply keeping them company. I’ll treat your dog like my own and keep you updated while you’re away. I am home in the morning and evenings on the weekdays. I am free to take your pets out on walks every couple hours or as needed. I prioritize safety and trust by maintaining a clean, secure environment for pets. I ensure their routines are followed, provide plenty of playtime and affection, and always keep a close eye on them to prevent any accidents. Your pets will feel comfortable and cared for in my home or yours. I have a fenced in yard as well

About: I am experienced in providing gentle, including walks to the parks and beaches, while maintaining a calm and comfortable environment inside home and outside home. My job requires me a peculiar freedom to have a flexible schedule. I am morning person and love going in evening strolls regardless of sorting setting. In my home, I create a fun and safe space for pets, with cozy spots to relax, play, and eat. They get fresh water, regular walks, and all the love and attention they could ask for! I stick to their routine to keep them happy and stress-free. When I care for pets in a client’s home, I make sure they feel right at home, following their usual routine. From daily walks and playtime to feeding and cuddles, I keep everything tidy and comfy. I want them to feel relaxed and loved while their owner’s away!

“Sara was great and so helpful. She watched my babies when I had to go to work and my wife was on her way home. She updated me and sent pictures. We appreciated it so much.”

“Dane did a great job watching my kitties while I was away. He communicated clearly, asked all the right questions, and took some stunning photos of my cats to keep my mind at ease (seriously he should be an animal photographer). Highly recommend!”

Brit B.

“Cathy was awesome! She was timely and left lots of photos and even voluntarily met beforehand to go over keys, feeding, etc. I am very pleased and will definitely entrust Cathy to watch my pets in the future!”

Jennifer C.

“This was our first time using Rover and Sydney made it an absolutely wonderful experience. She’s extremely reliable, shares pictures and info on how the pups are doing. Both of my dogs were happy and well cared for! We hope to have Sydney take care of our pups again in the future!”

I can't wait to meet your adorable pets!! <3 ☺️ I’m currently in a culinary program as I take a break from working in mental health which is my primary profession. I go into program in the city three days a weel from 8am-1:30pm Tuesdays through Thursdays. I can work anytimes generally Mondays, Fridays, and weekend days. As well as Tuesdays through Thursday from 3pm-7:30pm. I have a weekly routine with my pup as in learned her, I've found that it works best for her. She has outside time three times a day with two 15-30min local walks and usually an 1hr or 1.5hr of play time midday at our local dog park or puppyland at lake merritt finishing up with a calming walk to bring her energy back to homeostasis. We'll also have cuddle time and more play depending on how much she needs given the days, so I stay attuned to her. Usually on Sunday mornings I like to take her in the morning to a bigger park we both enjoy to walk. It is often either Albany bulb, Point Isabel, or right now Reinhardt Redwood Regional Park!! Learning what is best for my dog to ensure she has a happy, fulfilling, and enriched life is important to me and I see the same with any pets I care for too. If you have a preferred care plan/ routine/ specific needs I’m all ears to understanding what is best in supporting your pet!

“She was sweet with my kitty. Would definitely rebook.”

About: I’m the devoted doggie aunt to some pretty fantastic pups, and I genuinely love spending time with dogs. Walks aren’t something I rush through—I’m happy to let your dog sniff, explore, get some exercise and enjoy being outside. I’m dependable, attentive and comfortable following your dog’s particular routine, whether that means a brisk walk, a leisurely neighborhood sniffari, playtime or just some extra company and affection. I’ll treat your pup like one of my own—even though I’m still waiting for one of my own! My schedule is currently very flexible, which means I can accommodate weekday and weekend visits and walks, including daytime hours when many people are at work. I’m happy to work around your pet’s established routine and give them the time and attention they’re accustomed to. I know that trusting someone with your pet—and access to your home—is a big deal. I’m mature, dependable, communicative and respectful of your space and your pet’s routine. I follow instructions carefully, pay attention to changes in behavior, and know how to stay calm if something unexpected happens. Most importantly, I’ll treat your pets with patience, kindness and affection.

“Amanda was awesome with my two large dogs! She even went above and beyond to feed my cats when my husband didn't leave enough food for them. She cares about everyone.”

“Breckyn was a very supportive and enthusiastic pet sitter. I'm doing a trial adoption for two 6 mo old kittens who I've only had for a couple of days. Breckyn had great tidbits of advice for me, and took great care of the sweet kittens at short notice. Thank you! 🙏”
