House Sitting in Martinez

“Hannah was amazing with our 11 month old labradoodle. The daily check in photos were awesome and we could tell she took such good care of our pup and our home. She was well organized and had excellent communication with us throughout her stay. We would highly recommend Hannah to anyone needing a high quality dog sitter.”

About: I am a full time caregiver for animals of all kinds, including years spent interning and volunteering at rescues and sanctuaries. When in these positions I care for about a hundred beautiful beings 24/7, from fluffy little rescued babies all the way to elders like a 23 year old dog. When I am sitting for you, I am only working with and focused on the animals in your household. I offer calm, empathic care, defined by my insight since birth that each and every animal is a unique, sensitive individual worthy of respect and protection. As a full-time animal caregiver, I’m devoted to providing patient, compassionate, and attentive care to every animal I meet. I only caregive for one household at a time, so I am with your furry or feathered friends for the entire time you are away. I care for your companions right in their own home, where they feel safest. I prioritize creating a calm, secure environment and building trust through gentle, consistent attention. Your beloved family member's comfort and well-being always come first.

“Isaiah is truly the best! We always feel so comfortable leaving him with our pup. And always come back to a perfect house. Can’t thank you enough, Isaiah!”

“Virgina is very sweet and communicated well with us throughout her three week stay at our home with our dog Louie. She took great care of our beloved dog and home. He has meds and specific diet which she followed at our request. She also took him on lots of walks. The home was clean and tidy before we arrived home. I definitely will use her services again and recommend her for any help you may need.”

“Tracy was great with our dog and was so easy to communicate with. We had a last minute mishap with a holiday gathering and Tracy was able to help us out last minute. We will definitely work with her again!”

About: I offer calm, personalized care in a quiet home where your dog is treated like family, not one of many in a busy boarding facility or a home with multiple dogs. I typically host one household at a time, so your dog gets my full attention, genuine affection, and all the cuddles they can handle. My home is the right fit for friendly dogs who love companionship, walks, and settling into a peaceful routine. I'm especially drawn to dogs who thrive with one-on-one attention rather than the noise and energy of a busy multi-dog environment. I'm certified in Pet CPR, Healing Touch for Animals, and Reiki. And beyond the credentials, I'm deeply attuned to each dog's personality and energy. That attunement is what helps them settle in quickly and feel genuinely at ease. My connection to animals runs deep. I spent five years volunteering at Lindsay Wildlife Rehabilitation Center, working in both the mammal department and wildlife hospital with injured and recovering animals. That experience sharpened my understanding of animal behavior and reinforced something I already believed: animals feel safety before they understand it. My goal is always to create that feeling from the moment your dog arrives! Because I work from home, pets in my care are rarely left alone for long periods and receive plenty of attention, walks, and companionship throughout the day. When pets stay in my home, they become part of a calm and comfortable daily routine. I primarily host dogs from 1 household at a time so each pet receives plenty of individual attention. Dogs here enjoy daily walks, playtime, and relaxed downtime, and I’m home much of the day since I work from home. I pay close attention to each pet’s personality and needs so they feel safe and settled. For drop-in visits or walks in a client’s home, I follow the pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding, fresh water, walks, litter care for cats, playtime, and companionship. I’m happy to send photo updates so owners know their pets are doing well.

“Danielle was wonderful with our dog, Hop! We’ve never used a dog sitter outside of the family with him before, and of course we were a bit anxious about the whole thing, but Danielle put us at ease with her passion & knowledge about animals, clear communication and consistent updates on Hop while we were gone. We’re so lucky to have found someone we can trust when we need our little man looked after!”

About: I've had pets most of my life - cats, dogs, and even a snake. My wife and I had a dog who passed a couple of years ago, and now we have two dogs who are 2 and almost 2. I'm a middle school teacher, and my wife works from home, so someone will be with the dogs most of the time if they're at our house. We're comfortable with dogs of any age and can handle excitable puppy energy, as well as provide medications. If your dog(s) are at our house, they'll get to run and play with our dogs, who rarely meet a dog they don't like. I'm a teacher who is gone during the day, and my wife works from home. If I'm at your house, I will leave to go teach for the day, but at our house, my wife can provide potty breaks or play time during the day. Weekends are flexible. I often dog-sit for our neighbors when they are out of town, and I give the dogs lots of love, pets, and play time. I feed them on their parents' schedules with appropriate food and medicine. For the senior dog, I lift him to be able ot go outside and potty. Whenever I'm caring for my dogs or others, I follow the instructions for those pets and give them lots of love and attention.

“Fiona is wonderful she is very knowledgeable about dogs and was so kind to my anxious dog. She came to me for a meet and greet and followed every direction. I would love to have Fiona watch my dog again!”

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs and cats for around 4 years now! I’ve always loved animals, and first started getting expirence from volunteer at the Berkley Animal Shelter! Since then, I have dog and cat sat for many families! 🩷✨🐶 I am free every day of the week, and can fit pretty much anyone into my routine! Dogsitting and walking is what keeps me busy! In my home, we have a dog door that can be shut whenever. We also have a yard with fencing that keeps the animals safe

“Mia was wonderful with Freddie! As new puppy parents, we really appreciated how comfortable she made us feel leaving him in her care. She watched him for two back-to-back days, communicated clearly throughout, and was respectful of our home and schedule. We’d happily book her again — thank you, Mia!”

Walta A.

“Joe was amazing. We needed last minute help with our dog and had never used Rover before. Joe jumped right in and made us feel super comfortable. He communicated all along the way and spoiled our dog with long hikes and tons of snuggles. We will absolutely use Joe again!”

About: I have hands-on experience caring for dogs and have been trusted with ongoing pet sitting responsibilities. I treat every pet with the same care, routine, and attention they receive from their owners. I also help reinforce training, keeping consistency with commands and good habits while you’re away. I work part-time and remotely, which gives me a flexible schedule. This allows me to provide consistent attention, regular walks, and be present throughout the day to ensure pets feel comfortable and cared for. I provide care in my client’s home to help pets stay comfortable in their familiar environment. I follow their usual routine for feeding, walks, and playtime, and make sure they feel safe and relaxed. I also keep the home tidy and provide updates so owners feel at ease while they’re away.

“I have nothing but WONDERFUL things to say about Carla! She took amazing care of our dog Bailey and she made sure to send me updates and photos throughout the sitting, which really helped to put me and my husband at ease. She also followed all of our instructions and we came home to a very happy dog! I would recommend Carla to anyone who needs someone to look after their pet!”

“Heather was wonderful with the two new kittens- she let them play each day and even bought them a toy! She also rescued the plants from the little attackers.”

Diane K.

“We had such a great experience with Vivian! My puppy loved her and she took great care of him and left the house in wonderful shape while we were gone. She sent regular updates and we knew our puppy was in great hands! Highly recommend Vivian.”

“Mandisa took great care of our little terrier, Luna (who can be a handful some times). I especially appreciated her responsiveness and professionalism throughout the process, which provided such peace of mind, and the notes she left afterward, which were super helpful for managing an issue Luna's been having lately, where she gets so excited by the neighborhood cats that she forgets to potty when you take her outside. Ah, terriers. We look forward to booking with Mandisa agin.”
