Pet care experience
DOG SITTER, Former Pet Care Assoc.
Currently taking reservation for Labor Day!! Hello! My name is Hosana and I am currently an undergraduate college student at UCSD. I have loved animals for as long as I could remember! Growing up in a smaller home, I was never able to own a dog of my own, but being obsessed with animals, I wouldn't let this stop me from being around them an gaining as much experience as I could by taking care of pets for friends and family throughout my life. Eventually I started working at a local doggy daycare/ pet boarding facility in Walnut Creek known as, North Main Pet Lodge. I have about a year's worth of experience working professionally with a multitude of different dog breeds and taking care of their daily needs. I've worked with both dogs and cats, and other small animals such as hamsters, rabbits, and such and know how to administer medication, bathe, feed, and do other tasks related to pet care. Staying flexible and knowing how to deal with all sorts of situations is something I have come to be very acquainted with through my work experience. Communication is of big importance to me and making sure all pet parents stay informed throughout their stay away from their pets. Currently I am working on my finishing my degree online and no longer need to attend classes on campus. Therefore I will be in the bay area permanently and am looking to work with those who need the occasional sitter. Have been actively sitting for my clients since 2025. Please feel free to contact me and help this college student out with your business, as I also look forward to spending time with your pets! Thanks for reading :)

Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
When in a client's home, the pet's safety and health are my number one concern. With my experience, I have learned several tricks that help with a variety of temperaments and personalities that each dog has. I also believe in being respectful of my client's homes and will take that very seriously. Overall, any specific concerns or lists can be communicated to me and I will make sure to keep an open line of communication.
Ratings and reviews
Hosana did an excellent job dog sitting for Frank. She was very responsive, sent lots of photos, and treated him like one of her own! We will absolutely be reaching out to hosana again for dog sitting needs.
Hosana took great care of our pets and sent lots of updates and photos to keep us updated. She was very communicative and did a wonderful job making our dog and two cats were fed, entertained, and exercised. We returned home to happy pets!
Hosana was absolutely wonderful with my 2 dogs and my house! She stayed at my house and took care of my dogs while I was out of the country. She was quick to reply to texts whenever I asked about the dogs and she also sent multiple pictures a day of the dogs. She followed the detailed instructions I left her regarding the medications that one of my dogs needed and just other instructions for each of their quirks/habits, of which there were many. Will definitely book her again next time I need a dog sitter!
Hosanna did a great job with Kopi! She gave us lots of updates including pictures and can tell he had a great time with her! Will definitely use her for future needs!
Hosana was very communicative and responsible when watching over my dog for me. She was super helpful and made sure to keep the house just as I left it. Really great dog sitter!
Hosana is always great when taking care of our dogs Naoto and Mufasa. The dogs are always excited when she comes. Hosana also always keeps the house nice and clean when I come back which is great.
