Pet Sitting Maxwell Park

“Vania was awesome!!! I needed someone last minute and she came through. She was great with my two pitbulls and treated them like queens. She was always on time and very communicative with pictures. I strongly recommend and will be using her in the future.”

About: Dogs have been in my life since I was a kid, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. Over the years, I’ve had the joy of looking after dogs with all kinds of personalities and needs: • Gator, my grandma’s goofy orange lab, who loved carrying giant rocks and playing in the water. • A shar-pei with big “Stanley-from-The-Office” energy, who needed daily walks and, later in life, extra care with meals and medication. • My parents’ pitbull, who I raised from the puppy stage and helped train—my most challenging and rewarding experience! These experiences taught me patience, responsibility, and how to adapt to each dog’s unique needs. I’m reliable, attentive, and genuinely love spending time with dogs (and I think they can tell!). I am currently doing freelance work and studying from home which means If there is WiFi, I am more than happy to stay at a place to be attentive with the pet and also keep them company. When I care for a pet I make sure they feel safe with me in their home, I let them warm up to me and I make sure they know that I am a friend by giving them their favorite treat. I prefer to meet pet before hand. If it’s a dog I avoid other dogs on walks and even if encouraged or recommended, I do not take them to the dog park. When in my care I want them to be safe and I know that can get tricky with other pups so I avoid it all around.

“This was the first time Sydney dropped in on my cat Mystery for me. From the start in it was a great experience. Sydney has great energy, good communication and showed genuine care for my cat Mystery. I recieved a detailed update with pictures. I will definitely be booking her again!”

About: With 10+ years of animal care experience — including 4 years as a veterinary assistant — I’m especially experienced with seniors, anxious or shy pets, and those needing medications or extra TLC. I’m reliable, calm under pressure, and treat every pet like my own. Providing care for pets fits naturally into my lifestyle — my schedule is intentionally flexible so I can be available when your pets need me most. Whether you need help during long workdays, weekend trips, or last-minute schedule changes, I’m happy to accommodate a wide range of needs. Let me know what your pet’s routine looks like — I’ll do my best to match it, so they feel safe, loved, and right at home while you’re away. Within the client's home, I do everything I can to make their pets feel safe, seen, and loved. I know how important it is to maintain their routine and environment, especially for pets who thrive on familiarity. I take time to build trust, go at their pace, and make sure they feel comfortable with me in their space. Whether it’s a quick drop-in, extended visit, or overnight stay, I’m respectful of both your home and your pet’s boundaries. I always follow instructions carefully, provide updates along the way, and make sure your pet is happy, secure, and well cared for while you’re away. For the health and safety of your pet, I kindly ask that clients provide their own grooming tools — including brushes, combs, nail clippers, styptic powder, and any other essentials your pet is familiar with. Using your pet’s personal tools helps prevent the spread of bacteria, and ensures a safe, and hygienic experience. Your pet’s safety and your peace of mind are always my top priorities.

About: I have had my own cats for about ten years and had farm cats and dogs as a child. My cat recently passed and I am not quite ready to adopt another but want to help others in the mean time! As of right now I’m boarding a sweet female cat for a friend and have been for about a month but she will be going back home in the next few weeks! I live in a studio apartment so I am able to board small to medium animals. I am off just two days otherwise I am available in afternoons after I am off work! Let me know if you have additional questions about my experience or availability! I work full time in San Francisco so I usually leave pretty early in the morning and get back home early afternoon Wednesday through Sunday. Monday and Tuesday I am off but run a few errands. When I had my kitty she would usually feed wet food in the morning and leave some dry food for the day, then when I got home I would leave out some more wet food for the night. I of course have a water fountain and plenty of toys and scratchers for the day and have some play time when I get home. I have a studio apartment so not much room for a big dog but I do have a quiet neighborhood for walks and a gated backyard for play time. Cats should be no issue in the apartment with all the toys and scratchers I have!

“Kristi is amazing... My four doggos absolutely adored her! She was willing to come to my home last minute for a meet and greet and drop in on the weekend to check on them. Kristi has a special way with animals and is very caring. I received live updates and photos during her visit which left me feeling relieved knowing they were in good hands. 10 stars. I highly recommend her for your pets needs:)”

About: I have a spacious home with a fully enclosed backyard where your pets can safely explore and play. The environment is cozy, comfortable, and secure. We currently have no pets. I've had pets my entire life and will care for yours with the same love and kindness I would give my own. Please contact for availability. We have a standard household routine. I'm looking forward to hosting your furry baby and taking care of them. My home will be theirs. Thank you! I will care for your pets as if they were mine. I've boarded my pets for years so I understand how it feels to place the trust in someone elses hands. You won't be disappointed.

“Natasha did drop in visits for my 2 skittish cats. She was prompt in replying to my inquiry. She followed the care instructions for the kitties. I will use her services again.”

“Korin was on time and communicative! She was great with Tater and I really appreciated how patient she was when Tater was WAY over excited when she came over for a meet and greet. Would love to book her again in the future!”

Karyn S.

“Dane did a great job watching my kitties while I was away. He communicated clearly, asked all the right questions, and took some stunning photos of my cats to keep my mind at ease (seriously he should be an animal photographer). Highly recommend!”

Brit B.

“Christine is awesome! She took excellent care of my four cats while I was away on a business trip. She went above and beyond giving my kitties food and water - she played with them, texted me photos and videos, and checked in on the ferals in my backyard, even though had put out an automatic feeder for them. Christine even took out garbage and recycling cans out to the curb. She ensured everything was locked up when she left. I would highly recommend Christine to anyone who wants their feline fur-babies lovingly care for when they have to be away!”

About: I have spent my entire life around dogs, both caring for them as my own pets and doing paid dog-sitting. I have extensive experience with both small and large dogs. I have been in charge of bathing, walking, administering medication, and general playtime for a variety of pooches, and feel comfortable navigating dispositions ranging from quiet and timid to outgoing and rambunctious. I truly love all animals and cannot wait to meet yours! I am currently in between jobs, so I have lots of flexibility for pet care. Once a month, I am out of town Friday-Sunday, but otherwise I am open. I only plan to care for pets in clients' homes, not my own. I am very conscientious of safety and take every possible precaution in order to respect clients' homes and belongings, and of course ensure the safety of their pets.

About: I have experience with cats and dogs of all shapes, sizes, & ages! I currently have an extremely cute and well-behaved 10yo black cat, but primarily grew up with dogs as well. My parents have 2 golden doodles in the family and I have trained 3 puppies over the past 7 years. I have experience caring for pups ranging from 150lb English Mastiffs to 6lb Papillons. I’m currently job seeking and new to the area, so I have plenty of time throughout the day to play with your animals! Seeking both regular and flexible opportunities. I care for my own pets by making sure their wants and needs are met. I love spending time outdoors and love going for hikes with my own pets.

“Jisselle took wonderful care of my cat! He loved her and jumped right into her arms when he met her. She was punctual, communicated well and often, and she followed the specialized instructions. I will definitely be using her again!”

Ellen J.

Ginger B.

“Avery was great! Our cats just loved her as shown in the photos we received. She was on time, followed instructions, kept everything clean, and was a great communicator. We felt safe leaving our pets in her hand. We highly recommend Avery and will definitely book her again.”

Fabienne J.

“Responsive, helpful, and our puppy loved her!”

Kathy L.

“We would definitely book Qishu again! She was great-quick to respond to messages, sent lots of pictures, and made us feel at ease about being away from Sabina for a couple of days.”

Tyler S.

“Stephanie did a great job taking care of our two cats. She sent us pictures each day she visited. She was very prompt and did exactly what we asked of her. Our cats' feeding is a bit complicated and she was very accomodating. We will definitely ask her to pet-sit again.”

About: I had my own sweet pup for over 15 years. Unfortunately we lost her this past year. Now I have a new pup who is a ball of energy! I assisted heavily during some of the major fires in northern California over the years, working with several professional animal rescue teams. Love dogs of all shapes and sizes just out here hoping to help as many pups as possible. Relocated to Alameda in 2025. I work remote so I have some availability through the week, the weekends I’m available. I have plenty of space available for furry friends. My pup has lots of energy and would love a playmate. Currently available part time. I’m very active so I love taking walks. I do have a small fenced backyard with grass. Our house is very dog friendly.
