About: I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember, and caring for pets has always been one of the greatest joys in my life. From dogs and cats to horses, birds, fish, and even ferrets, I’ve had the privilege of sharing my days with so many wonderful animals over the years. Each one has taught me something new about love, patience, and companionship, and I carry that experience with me into every pet I care for. Right now, I share my home with a lively crew—a sweet senior Husky hybrid who’s 15 years old, a playful 7-month-old Cattle Dog, two affectionate cats (one a sprightly senior of 14 years), and a handful of fish who bring calm and beauty to my space. Because of them, I have firsthand experience with pets at every stage of life. I understand the patience and special attention seniors need, as well as the energy and safe guidance puppies and kittens require as they grow. My passion for animals has inspired me to pursue a career as a Veterinary Technician, but no matter the path, one thing is certain: caring for animals will always be at the heart of what I do. I love spending time outdoors with pets, going on walks, playing their favorite games, and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. Whether your pet is playful and energetic or prefers quiet snuggles and gentle care, I’ll treat them like one of my own. When your furry (or feathered, or finned!) family members are with me, you can feel confident that they’ll be cared for with warmth, patience, and lots of love. I’m available bright and early in the mornings all the way through the evening for drop-in visits, walks, and check-ins. My regular availability is from 6:00 AM to 10:00 PM every day of the week, weekends included. I understand that every pet and family has different routines, so I’m happy to be flexible and work around the times that suit you best. I’m also available most weekends for house sitting, giving you peace of mind that your pets (and home) are well cared for while you’re away. If there’s ever a time I won’t be available, I’ll always update my schedule in advance so you’ll never be left guessing. My goal is to make things as smooth and stress-free as possible for both you and your pets! I am able to travel throughout the county and city, and I’m comfortable caring for pets in a wide variety of environments, including apartments, houses, farm properties, sidewalks, parks, and outdoor settings. No matter the location, I make it a priority to ensure pets feel secure and cared for in their familiar surroundings. I follow all owner instructions carefully, whether it’s feeding schedules, medication, exercise routines, or special accommodations. Maintaining consistency is important, and I will make sure your pets’ routines are carried out to your exact standards. While house sitting, I provide ongoing attention and companionship throughout the day, and during walks or check-ins, your pets will always have my full, undivided focus. I ensure that pets have access to fresh water, proper meals, and any other care items they may need. I am also fully comfortable working in all types of weather and terrain, so your pets’ care will never be disrupted by outside conditions.
“Leslie was so wonderful to my babies. I cannot praise her enough! She helped me when I was in a bind which will not be forgotten. She took pictures of her playing with them with frequent updates, as well. She is definitely worth 5 stars. If there was 6 stars, she would get them!”

“Greg has done several drop ins including one at the very last minute. He is 100% reliable and I completely trust that he will be here when he says he will be here. The dogs appear comfortable and relaxed around him. Thank you Greg!”

“Alejandra did a great job with lots of communication and photos. She also was great at navigating any mishaps, like escaping chickens. Would definitely book again!”

“Lauren was great. Detailed Rovers cards, picked up on short notice, and followed all the cat instructions to a T. Couldn’t ask for anything more. Will definitely be using her again in the future.”

“It was a pleasure working with Amanda. She was here when she said she would be. Very prompt which was important due to the fact that our cat Speedy needs his meds at the same time each day. She cleaned up after feedings of wet food and sent pix of our boys, which was really nice to receive. I would recommend Amanda to friends and family. Thank you Amanda! ;o)”

“Fiery is wonderful! Today I needed someone to come in and stay with my dogs for a bit while I took my husband to the emergency room. She was right there when I needed her. The dogs were very happy and the house was clean and neat when we got home.”

“I’ve been using Brigit as my go-to drop-in sitter for my cat for maybe 2 years now. I’ve recommended her to multiple friends and she is wonderful with my needy senior cat. She communicates clearly and efficiently, follows my sometime changing instructions, and has wonderful availability. I’ll be using her house sitting services for the first time soon and I can only imagine that my kitty will be stoked to have her around. I truly appreciate Brigit and all she has done for my kitty and I.”
“She took care of our pup so well and played with him. So thankful we found Jennifer! She was very responsive and friendly. Definitely will have her back!”

“I’m grateful for Rachel and her quick response time and availability, especially around the holidays. Thank you for loving our critters while we were away!”

“Skyler is absolutely amazing! She watched my pup while a neighbor was moving in and handled it amazingly. She cares for my dog like her own! Will definitely book again!”

“There’s no better compliment than a repeat customer. Josephine is phenomenal! She’s the most thorough, compassionate, and loving sitter my cats have ever had. When she walks through my door my cats run right up to her. It provides me a lot of comfort when I’m away knowing that Josephine is caring for my fur babies. I will absolutely be using her services in the future when she’s available.”

“Jessica is a fantastic cat sitter! She has watched my cat Cookie twice, and both times she was so thorough with her care and made sure Cookie got playtime and cuddles. I will always feel comfortable having Jessica take care of my pets :)”

“Jessica was amazing! Every visit she spent quite a bit of time with Archer and sent 1-2 pictures each day, sometimes showing him eating and sometimes showing him getting cuddles. They clearly got along well, and he seemed happy and healthy when we returned. Jessica is quick to respond to texts, and even checked in with us on the last day to make sure we'd get back on time and Archer would be okay.”

About: I have 3 dogs of my own who I absolutely adore. They range from 5 years old to 14 years old. Big, medium, and small. It's not just my dogs that I have a special place for, but all. If I'm out walking, driving or anywhere and I see a fur baby, my heart just fills with happiness and I want to say hi and give them love! I know how special fur babies are to us, and I do my best to provide the best care to all of them! I work fulltime, 8 to 5, Monday through Friday. As soon as I get off, I make my way home to tend to my own pups and give them some love. Some days I workout at home while they watch me, and other days I take them out for a walk outside. All just depends on moods and weather. With 3 dogs all ranging from 5-14, it can be a little difficult to satisfy all of them! I have fenced yard that my dogs are safe in when they are let out. My dogs are inside dogs who have many places to make themselves cozy... Dog beds in several rooms, the couch, and their kennels. They are kept in their kennels only while I'm at work. Otherwise, they have free range throughout the house.
About: I've cared for pets my whole life - as a child, through adulthood, and with my own family. Now, my wife and I have Zeus and Nala, two adorable lab mixes who rule our life with walks, baths, and dinner time. I'm a longtime professional transitioning to a new career. Currently, I have no recurring commitments and have lots of availability and flexibility for intermittent or regular walks and sitting. I have a fenced yard and two friendly dogs to keep your pets company. I'm at home most of the day, and the doors stay open with access to a breezy porch and lots of sunlight.
About: Mostly I’ve taken care of dogs and cats, including seniors, pups and kittens. I am sensitive to and will want to get them care if an emergency arises. I love to love them all. Presently I am flexible to meet pet parent needs. I do need 1 day notice for planning 🙂 and ensuring I am prepared for your pets. Presently I am able to provides services at your home only ( except for very young puppies and kittens who can stay with me if needed) -in your home I’m most familiar with cats and dogs. I am glad to keep your pets environment fresh during visits including waste clean up, hair brush or deshedding with your tools, refresh food, water bowls as needed. I will have non-toxic cleaners for hard surfaces if needed.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Los Altos
Jennifer was fantastic with our two cats and made them feel very comfortable while we were gone for roughly 5 days. One of our cats has pretty bad anxiety but she made them feel companionship and peace. Jennifer was flexible and made the best of some occasional circumstances outside of her control too, definitely would strongly recommend!!

Lauren was available last minute so my husband and I could do some travel where we couldn’t bring our dogs. Our pups absolutely love Lauren, and it is evident in the many adorable photos we get while we’re away. We trust her 100%, and love that she is our neighbor and in addition to being an expert with dogs, also has chickens and checks in with our flock too while we’re away. We’re all looking forward to the next time she can help out!

We hired Levi to watch our cats while gone for 3 weeks out of the country. He did multiple daily checks that involved several tasks, including litter management, feeding, playing, and also took care of our plants. He was easy to get ahold of and is great to work with. Will definitely be using him again.
