“From the first time my dog and I met Cassandra, I knew he’d be in good hands immediately and she proved that today. She house sat for me and took care of Riley and when she arrived, was very attentive to the care he required and that made me feel at ease entrusting him to her while I was away. She will definitely be my go to sitter moving forward and should be yours too!!”

“Bridget did an excellent job with my dog and staying at my house. He was well fed, walked regularly and she often sent me updates. I would highly recommend booking her!”

“Truly couldn’t recommend Erin enough. She was punctual, flexible, and extremely reliable. We hired her for a very busy weekend in our lives and she was self-sufficient, communicative when needed, and most importantly, our dog seemed happy and healthy when we returned home. We are so grateful for her service and look forward to booking her again in the future!”


“Shauna was great! She was super communicative and took great care of my dog and cats. I felt completely at ease while I was away because I felt confident that my pets were being taken great care of. She sent me great pictures and all the animals seemed completely happy and relaxed when I came home. I can’t recommend her enough!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs throughout my life and genuinely enjoy their company. I currently volunteer at my local animal shelter a few days a week. I have completed the shelters Fear Free training that teaches how to recognize and alleviate Fear, Anxiety, and Stress (FAS) in pets. The training touches on how to read animal body language, low stress handling techniques, environmental and protocol modifications. I have experience with puppies, adults, and senior dogs. I currently work part-time. My schedule consist of working M,W,F at 11:00 AM-3:00 PM and T,Th at 11:00 AM-4:00 PM. I am not scheduled at my day job on the weekends. So on Saturday and Sunday I am available for constant care. I can house sit, do drop in’s, and walks 7 days a week. But on weekdays I will be out 4-5 hours a day due to my work schedule. I will always respect clients boundaries. I understand the importance of leaving the place in good condition and cleaning up after myself. Most importantly sending updates to the owners on how their pets are doing. I also understand the importance of the big responsibility it is to care for my clients pets. I will always treat them as my own, with compassion, care, love and respect.
“Mary did an excellent job caring for our 2 dogs and cat while we were away for the weekend. She is an excellent communicator, follows all instructions and gave our babies so much love! Will be booking her again :)”

“Kristina was amazing! One of the best sitters I've dealt with on Rover. She was so communicative and caring, she is fantastic with the pups and they were happy and healthy upon our return. Absolutely loved working with her!”

About: Hi, my name is Sereina! I've grown up around dogs and have always been someone reliable and trustworthy around others pets as well. I know how to handle and care for dogs and cats of all different sizes, ages, and breeds. I would love to keep growing my experience and getting to know families and their pet family members as well! Currently I am working a part time job and visit my family in San Diego frequently. I am in school during the fall as a full time student but have extra time right now in the summer. Caring for your pet is another way for me to fill up the time throughout the week and meet new pets! As your pet sitter, I can be very by the book. If you have any special requests or know how to counteract any known behaviors from your pet I am capable of following your standards and following what is most comfortable and right for your pet. I will treat your pet with the same love and respect you have for them (and then some!). I am patient and will do everything I can to hold yours and your pets trust.
“Kristen was amazing. We booked her last minute, but she still made time to come to our home, meet Chapo, and take notes on everything she needed to know. Our flight was early in the morning, and as soon as I sent the request, she responded right away and came over to learn about his meds, routine, and schedule. We’re so grateful for her. She played with Chapo, took him on walks, and made sure he got his meds since he had an upset stomach when we left. She updated us every time she was with him, which gave me so much peace of mind during our trip. Highly recommend her!”

“Christopher looked after our kids for 9 days and my old Great Dane just fell in love !! The young ones kept him quite busy and he diligently took care of each with a warm heart and lots of love hugs and kisses to all the fur babies . Absolutely fantastic to know you can rely on such a competent and friendly dog sitter like him. Got home today and my kids was over the moon .. Definitely a 5👌🏼in our books ..”

“Haley sent very detailed messages to update us about how our animals were doing. She made sure they were well taken care of. When we got back from our trip, our big dog was tuckered out from all the walks and playing, which is fantastic.”


“Jack was a complete professional during his recent dog sitting of our two dogs. He stayed at our home and was extremely attentive and respectful. Jack followed all care instructions and went over and beyond by taking our dogs to the park and playing with them frequently. He provided us daily updates and photos during our vacation that kept us at ease, especially while traveling out of state. I cannot recommend him enough, a gentleman in every way.”

“Lindsey is wonderful! She has such great energy and gave our Luna all the exercise and attention she needed. She sent us tons of pictures of their daily walks and adventures! Thank you Lindsey for taking such great care of our babies.”


About: Hi folks!! I pet and baby sat many years ago throughout school and undergrad. I am a therapist currently on medical leave who wants to spend some time meaningfully connecting with sweet souls who don’t use many words :) I adore animals and have had them my whole life (at the most, I had 5 at once! 3 cats and 2 dogs). I also regularly help care for community cats here in Long Beach informally - helping get them food, water, and medical care when needed is important to me. They’re a special part of our neighborhood! Happy to provide personal references. I want to know what will make you feel most at ease taking care of your beloved! Please do reach out if you feel I may be a good fit. My schedule is pretty open and flexible. love to have a little bit of warning for a booking, but I have a great deal of time on my hands these days. I will take your lead - let me know what works best for your family and pet, and I am happy to oblige. Beyond that, I’ll do my best to read your fur baby and their needs, and to provide accordingly. Safety comes first, attunement comes second, fun and everything else comes third for me :)
About: I have taken care of dogs and cats for 5 years. I love walking dogs and playing with the animals when house sitting. I always ask what the owners want and follow their instructions. For house sitting can come multiple times a day. Bringing good energy and ready for a walk or play time. I work part time but can come any time on Monday, Tuesday, and can do walks Wednesday through Sunday before 3:40 pm. I am always on the go and love going on beach walks or just walking around the neighbor hoods. For house sitting I can check on the animals through the day and after work can spend the night or do a night check. I take care of our neighbor dog and two cats when she is off traveling. Usually come in the morning and feed animals and play with them. Then I take the dog for a beach walk or we go on a jog in the neighbor hood. Then I come back around lunch and get all the zoomies out check on them and play with them. Then I go before work and after work to let them out and check on them. Before work we usually go on a 20 minute walk just to get them outside. The cats usually follow us on the second walk.
“Kate spent a week taking care of our dog, Oliver, while my husband and I were on vacation. We came home to find a happy, healthy puggle. Kate was great about sending us updates. We will definitely use Kate's services again in the future!”
The median cost per night for house sitting in Los Altos is $63

Caleb has been an excellent sitter both times for our pup Cooper, kept me updated on his status and was fast with his responses. The dog likes him and so do I. Anytime I am out of town I will be looking to use his services should he be available. I highly recommend him should you find yourself ever in need for a sitter.

Delanea took great care of my senior dog, Bella, who has several age-related health issues and requires extra attention. She was punctual, communicative, and kept the house clean throughout her stay. Most importantly, Bella seemed happy, comfortable, and very relaxed when I returned home, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. Caring for a senior dog can be challenging, and I appreciate the time and attention Delanea gave her. Thank you for helping care for my sweet girl.

Shauna has been caring for our pets for several years, first as our dog sitter and now as our cat sitter, and we couldn’t be happier with her. She is reliable, trustworthy, and truly loves animals. She stays in our home while we’re away, which gives us tremendous peace of mind knowing our pets are comfortable in their own environment and receiving excellent care. Our animals absolutely adore her, and it’s obvious she treats them as if they were her own. Shauna communicates well, keeps everything running smoothly, and always goes above and beyond to make sure our pets are happy and cared for. We never have to worry when she’s watching them. We highly recommend Shauna to anyone looking for a dependable, caring, and professional pet sitter. She is simply the best!

Holly was great!! My cat requires twice daily medication and right before my trip decided that he wasn’t going to eat it in a treat anymore…If you’re ever had to medicate a cat that doesn’t want medication, you know it’s no easy task! Holly was amazing with troubleshooting and trying to make it a positive experience for him. She left our house even better than we left it. I would highly recommend!

Amanda kept me updated on Kelly’s daily routine, including her walks, feeding schedule, and relaxation time. She also sent photos of Kelly throughout her stay, which gave me peace of mind and reassured me that Kelly was happy and well cared for. I would definitely book with Amanda again and highly recommend her.

Sergio was great and quick to respond! Really good energy and my dog liked him immediately. He was able to accommodate a meet and greet beforehand to make sure our dogs were cool. Benny is the sweetest and my dog was ready to go home with them right then and there. Would recommend 100%

Wow! This surpassed every expectation I had; Glasgow was so happy and at peace for the 9+ day overnight trip while we were overseas. We've never had a formal house / pet sitter before, and we are so happy we found Denger — we're already re-booking them for future trips. :) Thank you for giving us the confidence and care...we're so thankful!

Charlie and I are so lucky and glad we found Bridget. She is knowledgeable and pleasant with Charlie. She kept me updated with videos and pictures. I could finally relax on a vacation without worrying ! The house was kept perfect. I absolutely plan on using Bridget again !
