House Sitting in Lakes by the Bay

“I would definitely recommend Kaitlyn to anyone! She was a great dog sitter and did very well with Charlie. She has a natural, gentle way with dogs. She was prompt, personable and professional. I would absolutely hire her again and so should you! !”

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Dayana did an outstanding job with Boomer and Nova, especially during the challenging time right before I flew out of the country. When Boomer injured himself, she cared for him meticulously, administering all his medications as if he were her own. She kept me updated with pictures and took excellent care of the house, leaving it even better than I did. I highly recommend her for pet sitting and will definitely be using her services again in the future.”

“Kevin and Manon were so very easy with which to work. We needed a very flexible departure and arrival back home and Kevin was able to accommodate our needs. Pictures daily and both Phoebe and Lucy were well cared for. Our home was left in great condition and the trash was even emptied when we arrived home. We will definitely be calling again for their help.”

About: Animals have always been a very important part of my life. I have cared for dogs and cats throughout my entire life and have a genuine love for all pets. While growing up in Peru, I rescued numerous abandoned dogs and cats, helping them recover by providing care, food, and lots of affection until they regained their health. These experiences taught me the importance of patience, dedication, and paying close attention to the individual needs of each animal. Since moving to the United States, I have cared for two dogs and one cat, providing them with a life filled with love, comfort, and attention. My most recent dog had a disability and required daily medication, a special diet, and additional care. Through this experience, I learned the importance of maintaining routines, administering medications properly, and being attentive to any special needs a pet may have. I strive to treat every pet as if they were part of my own family. I am responsible, caring, and highly observant of their physical and emotional needs. My priority is to ensure that your pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for at all times. I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate time and attention to the pets in my care. I am available during weekdays and weekends for walks, drop-in visits, daycare, or boarding, ensuring that they receive plenty of affection, exercise, and companionship throughout their stay. I treat every pet as if they were part of my own family. I always follow the owner’s instructions regarding feeding, medications, and daily routines. I maintain a clean, safe, and calm environment, supervise pets at all times, and make sure they have fresh water, playtime, walks, and plenty of affection so they feel comfortable and happy.

About: I was raised with dogs, have dog training and dog walker experience. I’m the typical guy that sees a dog and wants to pet and play. I also own cats so I understand their needs and priorities. I’m currently working full time but after 6p I’m free. And weekends any time. I like to go on walks, I usually walk 4 miles so if your dog is high energy, I’ll promise to get him/her tired 😂 My apartment is cat safe , I will care for your pet as if it’s mine. I can follow any and all your rules, and I even offer video proof of the walks and if I’m pet sitting for your peace of mind

About: From raising and bottle-feeding kittens to training and walking high-energy dog breeds (uncertified training for the joy of it) to cleaning horse stalls, I know that pet care takes careful, loving work! Whether you need someone just to be attentive and in the same space as your low-energy pet, long walks and lots of play for your high-energy pet, or high communication, special care for a higher- needs pet, I am ready to meet you and your pet’s needs. I am currently in between my college studies and a job in the fall, so I have very open availability! I am a classical musician, so I may have some weekend nights that I am out performing or rehearsing for a few hours, but I am willing to discuss and meet your time and care needs for your pet(s). I would like to care for your pets as closely to the same way that you do, so it is helpful to know routines for your pet, such as getting a treat after using the potty, eating schedule, walk schedule, amount of cuddles/play time they typically enjoy, crating/no-crating, etc. I will be available for as much communication as you would like while I care for your pet(s) and love sending you cute pics of your pet!

“Wow. Katherine was great. She followed instructions to a tee and kept Hastings company in my apartment while I was away including take care of all walks and feeding. Also, Katherine had to take over for another person on Rover midway through my trip and she was great about accommodating the hand off. I would gladly use Katherine again.”
