Pet Sitting & Drop Ins In Hillsdale

“Rong was super sweet and really attentive with Stella. Stella usually takes a while to warm up to people, but she seemed very comfortable with Rong right away. Rong also paid attention to the little things around the apartment and kept me updated, which I really appreciated. Would definitely book with her again.”

“Amazing!! Will be using her again. She not only was able to stop by in an emergency but she has also been great with my older dog. Great person and would recommend her to walk my friends dogs.”

About: I've taken care of dogs since I was in high school. A lot of my neighbors have asked me to take care of their dogs while being out on long vacations. Most visits did not include overnight stays, but I would show up in the morning to take them for a walk and to play, come back around noon to play with them again and stay for about an hour or two, come back around dinner to make sure they were fed and walked again and stay a little longer so that the dogs were not alone when it would get darker. Especially during thunder storms! I currently have a full time job that I work at 5 days a week. However with my job I have a lot of availability to work remote so if there were any circumstances where you would need me to stay all day at your house to watch your dog I would be available to do so as long as I have a wifi connection :). I had moved from New Jersey to California, so as you can imagine I miss my family dogs everyday so I have a lot of love to give to other dogs. I live in an apartment so I will unfortunately not be able to have dogs here, however, I am willing to travel multiple times a day to the owners house to play, feed, walk and even go to parks to keep them fresh and active.

“Xilin and Xiang were amazing and took such great care of Nono while also keeping our home clean and tidy. We really appreciated them and felt so lucky to have their help during our two week vacation!”

“Elizabeth was very helpful and responsive, even with the sudden schedule change. She followed all of my instructions carefully while taking care of my dog, and I’m sure Koimo had a great time with her. She was a huge help. Thank you so much!”

“Chloe was an amazing sitter for my cat, Panda. She is incredibly reliable and attentive, and it’s clear she truly cares about the pets she looks after. Panda can be a little particular, but she was comfortable and well cared for the entire stay. This time, Chloe also handled Panda’s medication perfectly, everything went smoothly and right on schedule, which was a huge relief. Communication was excellent. I especially loved that she sent about ten photos with every update! Seeing so many great shots of Panda made me feel like I was right there and gave me complete peace of mind. I’m actually moving out of the area soon, so I’m genuinely sad that this may be our last booking. Panda and Chloe really hit it off, and we’ll both miss having such a dependable and caring sitter. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a responsible, trustworthy, and communicative pet sitter!”

About: My home is your pet’s home 🫶🏻 Safe and trusted environment 💛 I have been caring for dogs and cats of all sizes and temperaments since I was 10 years old. Neighbors, friends, and family have always relied on me to check in, feed, and play with their pets. As a dedicated dog and cat owner myself, I understand that your pet is family. I am a very active person who loves long walks, so I can ensure your dog gets plenty of exercise. I’m also highly organized and comfortable following specific feeding or medication schedules to keep your pup's routine consistent. I currently work in healthcare administration during the week, which means my weekends are entirely dedicated to pet care! I am available for full-time boarding and house sitting from Friday evening through Sunday night. Because I am a student and work a consistent schedule, I am very reliable and punctual with my check-ins and walk times. Your pup will have my full attention during their stay! I live in a pet-friendly environment in San Mateo where your dog's safety is my top priority. I have a friendly dog of my own who loves making new friends, making my home a great 'social' spot for your pup. I am very comfortable with 'Meet & Greets' to ensure everyone gets along. I maintain a clean, safe space and am happy to accommodate crate training or any specific home boundaries you have in place.

“Amanda is great! She provides up to date information and really knows how to take care of our little pup. We felt comforted knowing our little Riley was in great hands. Would definitely rebook her again!”

About: About me: I recently graduated from a master's program in school counseling! I was raised in San Mateo and am very familiar with the area. I live with my husband and have no pets, but I frequently visit the family dogs I grew up with (and I spoil them like my own!). In my free time, I enjoy gardening, biking, watching reality TV, and quality time with loved ones! I’ve grown up with dogs in my family and have always been a natural dog lover; some might say I might spoil too much! I started dog-sitting one of my coworkers' dogs and realized how fun and relaxing it was for me! Since then, I've gained experience pet-sitting for extended periods, paying attention to dogs' routines and understanding the importance of a companion and a trusted presence while their favorite humans are away. I understand dogs are an extension of our families, and I will treat them as such :) I've been on Rover for a little under a year and have gotten experience in the following: Senior Dog Care (Up to 16 Years Old): Deeply familiar with the patience, gentle handling, and attentiveness required for senior pets. Medication Administration: Experienced and comfortable administering prescribed medications accurately and on time. Puppy Care & Training: Well-versed in the high-energy needs of puppies, including strict adherence to your established crate training routines, constant supervision, and maintaining behavioral structure. About my summer schedule: I am wokring a part time job M-F and will be avaialbe starting at 1pm. I will be fully available on weekends (except those already marked off in the app). **Safety:** Clear communication with the pet owner is essential for ensuring safety. Please inform me of any dietary or behavioral restrictions I should be aware of while sitting. For example, can the dog eat human food? Do they like being held? Are there any issues when taking them for a walk? I will carefully review the instructions you provide and ensure I have the emergency contact information for the nearest veterinary hospital in case of an emergency. **Trust:** I understand how much trust it takes to let someone into your home and care for your pet. As a fellow pet lover, I assure you that your pet will receive the company, attention, and supervision they need, as per your instructions. I am respectful, responsible, communicative, and passionate about dogs! Having had one of my own, you can be confident that I will treat your pet as my own. **Environment:** Please let me know if there are any areas in your home that are off-limits to me or your pet. Additionally, it would be appreciated if you could let me know about any security or pet cameras in the home so I can respect your privacy.

“Annie took such great care of our cat all week! She diligently fed and played with our cat and sent a lot of cute pictures. I could tell our cat had a wonderful time with her :)”

About: I started by taking care of my moms 4 dogs when she would go on vacations and needed a dog sitter. That really taught me how to feed them efficiently and when to take them outside to go potty. From there I learned how to hang out with them and play with them efficiently. I am a college student with classes Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday and Sunday I am available for the entire day and night. On Wednesday and Friday I'm available at night, Monday I'm not because I have a night class. Staying over night is not a problem, along with check ins during the days even on school days. I love dogs and am really good at feeding them, taking them outside, and playing with them. I'm not a trainer, but someone who is good at taking care of them while you are away. My mom has 4 small dogs so I'm very familiar with smaller dogs, but I have also watched bigger dogs as well.

About: I've cared for every kind of dog and cat in the past 5 years. I love to work with the big dogs and the little guys. I am skilled at administering medications (pills), playing, walking, and minimal training. I can't wait to meet your pets! I currently attend community college and play soccer for my school's team. I have free time in the mornings between 6-8 am as well as evenings at 7-10 pm. I am available most weekends with a flexible schedule on Saturday and Sunday. I don’t board pets in my home, but I provide excellent care in my clients’ homes where pets feel most comfortable. I make sure their routines stay consistent and familiar, from walks and feeding schedules to playtime and cuddles. I always clean up after myself and the pets, leaving your home just as tidy as you left it. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities.

“Poppy took care of my cat when I was away for a few days. She was great! My cat clearly liked and trusted her. I'm really pleased and wouldn't hesitate to book with Poppy again.”

About: What sets me apart is the genuine love and attention I give to every dog. I have experience caring for my own dogs and also dogs belonging to my neighbors, adapting to different routines, personalities, and needs while always providing a safe, calm, and loving environment Pet care fits very well into my daily routine. I work for a few hours early in the morning, I am busy during the afternoon starting from 1 pm, and in the evening I am free again. This schedule allows me to dedicate quality time, attention, and care to pets I always prioritize safety, trust, and comfort when caring for pets, whether in my home or in a client’s home. I carefully follow each pet’s routine, feeding instructions, and any specific needs. I make sure the environment is clean, calm, and secure, and I give pets plenty of attention, supervision, and affection so they feel safe and relaxed at all times

“Very friendly and a peaceful energy. My cat immediately loved her and he’s very skittish to strangers.”

“Rachel was amazing! It's always nerve-racking looking for a new pet sitter, but right after Rachel met our cats we knew she'd be great. We have one elderly, standoff-ish cat, and one energetic kitten - Rachel met both of their medical/feeding needs, managed their different temperaments, and we came home to two happy kitties! Will absolutely book with Rachel in the future! :)”

Sarah F.

“So thankful to have been able to rebook Natalie to watch our two cats! She’s always giving us updates on her visits and takes wonderful care to give them extra play time. We trust Natalie for any future cat watching needs!”
