About: I’ve been caring for all kinds of animals my whole life, but I’ve been doing it professionally for over 5 years. I’m currently in a Vet Tech/Assistant program, so I have the training to handle everything from walks and grooming to giving medicine to diabetic or senior pets. Whether you have dogs, cats, birds, or small mammals, I’m comfortable, educated, and ready to treat your pets like my own I do work as a youth service partner with adopted kids, but that position is intermittent, so I have flexibility and dedication to provide care for your pets. I will provide reliable, safe, loving care in your home. I will strictly follow all routines to make sure your pets stay happy and secure.

“Daniel has been walking our dogs when we head out of town and he has been so reliable and responsive. Very easy to communicate and book with him! I’d highly recommend him to anyone seeking dog care in any form.”

About: Specializing in gentle, professional care to elderly and disabled dogs and cats. I started my professional career in animal care at the East Bay SPCA Veterinary Clinic in Oakland. Inspired by the importance of animal welfare, I would complete an eight-week internship at Best Friends Animal Sanctuary, where I gained valuable skills in veterinary pre- and post-op care. Following that remarkable experience, I was a veterinary assistant for a holistic veterinarian at a private practice. Later, I returned to shelter medicine as a veterinary technician at the Berkeley-East Bay Humane Society. This span of 25 years allowed me to develop and strengthen my skills and expertise in animal care, specializing in the needs of senior dogs and cats. I am currently accepting new senior or disabled pets for slow strolls and other enrichment activities. My availability is flexible on Saturdays and Sundays, while weekdays are limited to only evening visits. Your pet's trust is important to me. I will arrive into your home with a warm and calm voice, assuring your beloved pets that I am gentle and kind. Being a former vet tech, I am also trained and skilled at giving medication*, which can be done in the comfort of your home. *All medications must be veterinarian-prescribed with dosage instructions. No exceptions.

“Excellent communication and care!”

About: I have taken care of pets, cats and dogs, from a young age. I grew up a cat and dog owner and have always loved my pets. I have experience training young dogs for sit, stay, fetch, lay down, roll over, wait, and go. I also regularly pet sit for family members. I am currently not working due to summer break, so I have full open availability. When school starts in August, I will be available evening after 5 and all day weekends. I am hoping to find pet sitting for weekends and dog walks for week days. I currently have a 3 bedroom apartment that is pet friendly. I can take care of small dogs/ cats at my own home and able to take them for walks around my neighborhood. I am willing and comfortable to pet sit in the client’s home and to go to the client’s home to take pups for walks.

This allows me to fit walks and drop-in visits into my routine while making sure each dog gets the attention, exercise, and care they need. I provide care in my clients homes and always follow each furry friends normal routine to help them feel comfortable and secure.

About: I don’t just watch pets, I build trust with them. By learning their routines and personalities, I create a calm, familiar experience that keeps them happy, comfortable, and stress-free while you’re away. I plan my weekly schedule around the pets in my care to ensure I can meet their specific needs—whether that’s regular walks, medication timing, feeding routines, or extra attention. I keep a consistent routine so pets feel comfortable and owners can rely on dependable care. At this time, I offer pet care exclusively in my client’s home. While I’m not able to host pets in my own space, I’ve found that staying in their home keeps them more relaxed and comfortable. I stick closely to their usual routine, meals, walks, playtime, and any special care so they feel safe and well cared for while you’re gone.

About: I have taken care of cats and dogs for my family members for two years. I rented a house and the owner left his two Great Pyrenees to be in my care for the amount of time I lived there. I have a 3 year old pit bull and a 2 year old German Shepherd I love and care for now. I also have a 2 year old kitty that I love. All animals need love time and energy and I adore animals and their unique personalities! I’m currently working a full time job but I do get Friday- Sundays off which allows me to spend a lot of time with my animals but I know a lot of people who work weekends and or want to travel and I am willing to help people with their fur babies while they’re away. With my families, I make sure to establish a relationship first and make your fur baby trust me and enjoy being around me. If I go to your home, I will always ask where their favorite spot it or if you would like to crate them while I leave. I do enjoy walking them and feeding them and giving treats to enforce positive behavior.

About: Hello! Need someone with a flexible open schedule and plenty of dog experience? Im your girl. I will care for your fur baby’s as if they are my own. It fits into my daily routine perfectly! I have lots of free time to take care of your dogs. I adapt my routine to meet your dog's specific needs, making sure they feel loved and cared for every step of the way. When caring for pets in their own homes, I stick to their daily schedule, provide companionship, and make sure they feel at ease in their familiar surroundings, all while maintaining your home’s safety and cleanliness.

About: Hello! My name is Ariel. I have my AA in animal science as well as have my certification in dog obedience training, pet nutrition and pet first aid/CPR. I currently work at an animal hospital and I also do obedience training. I can follow instructions very well and I love to send pictures and updates to pet parents that book with me so they know how everything is going with their babies and help them feel more at ease! I also love bike riding and roller blading which I find are good ways to help release a lot of built up energy in dogs! I strongly believe animals are a big part of our familys and should be loved and cared for like family! I hope I am what you are looking for in a pet sitter! I do my best to accommodate all pet parent wishes with my schedule and am very honest about my abilities and scheduling to make sure everyone is comfortable and on the same page I have a fully fenced yard with tall trees providing lots of shade as well as lots of grass. On warm summer days I do bring out splash pads, pools and sprinklers to have some fun in the sun!
