Pet Sitting & Drop Ins In Mission San Jose

“Katelyn was so sweet and patient with my fearful Chihuahua mix. We had some communication issues that were NOT her fault, and she did her best to let me know what was going on. I would definitely hire her again if she is willing!”

“Rebooked with Andrew because I can't imagine trusting my precious baby cat and dog with anyone else! You'd think Andrew was Santa-Claws (ha, get it) from the way my dog IMMEDIATELY starts whining in excitement when he realizes "Uncle Andrew" is going to come spend time with him. My cat, who has NEVER voluntarily crawled onto my lap to sit and chill, is the total opposite with Andrew. He's both the cat AND the dog whisperer, and it's awesome. Andrew's great as always - punctual, caring, communicative, all the things that make for an excellent, trustworthy, above and beyond pet care giver.”

I have plenty of time and I love dogs and cats. It's very convenient for me to take care of them.I love pets so much! I really love dogs and cats. I think I can provide them with excellent companionship and care.I love pets so much! I will take care of them as my own kids

About: I owned and took care pets through out my life. I love animals and treat them like my friends. I will take care your pets the same way I would treat them as my own. I am currently working part-time, so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your pups! I am available for boarding on weekends, and weekdays after 3pm. I have no pets and small children in my house. I have a fenced yard for your dog to play in. I can also walk your dog around my nice neighborhood as needed.

About: I've trained and cared for my own dogs, both small and large breeds, all of my life. I've also volunteered extensively for shelters, walking and fostering all kinds of dogs. I'm also trained my own horses, giving me a strong sense of how to communicate with animals. I work from home on my own flexible schedule. As a result, i can accommodate your and your pets' schedules on weekdays as well as weekends. I can provide whatever your pet needs: walks as needed, playtime, comforting if he or she is anxious, and of course feeding and watering on their schedule.

About: I’ve been lucky to care for dogs, cats, and bunnies through every stage of life, from playful puppies and kittens to sweet senior pets who need a little extra patience and care. I’ve also pet sat for others for extended periods of time, including 4 to 6 weeks at a time, so I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pets and home in someone else’s hands. I care for each pet like they’re part of my own family. I take the time to learn their routine, personality, likes, dislikes, and comfort level so they feel safe, loved, and understood while you’re away. I’m comfortable with pets of all ages, all dog sizes, and pets who need medication or a little extra attention. Whether your pet is playful and energetic, shy and cautious, cuddly, independent, or in their senior years, I’ll meet them where they are with patience, kindness, and lots of love. My goal is to give you peace of mind and make your pet feel comfortable, cared for, and never alone. I work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and makes it easy for me to fit pet care into my day. I’m happy to make time for walks, drop-in visits, and house sitting based on your pet’s needs. I understand how important consistency is, so I’ll follow your pet’s usual routine for feeding, walks, playtime, medication, and companionship. I’m also happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can feel comfortable and connected while you’re away. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. I know it can feel stressful to leave your pet in someone else’s care, so I do everything I can to make the experience as smooth and reassuring as possible for both you and your pet. When caring for pets in your home, I’ll follow your instructions closely and maintain their normal routine as much as possible. Whether that includes feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication, litter box care, cuddle time, or simply keeping them company, I’ll make sure their needs are met with patience and attention. I understand that pets thrive on consistency, and keeping their routine familiar helps them feel secure while you’re away. I’m attentive to each pet’s individual personality and comfort level. Some pets love lots of interaction and play, while others prefer a calmer approach and need time to build trust. I’m happy to adapt my care to what makes your pet feel most comfortable and relaxed. Safety is extremely important to me. I’m careful with doors, gates, leashes, harnesses, and home access, and I always double-check that pets are secure before entering or leaving the home. I also pay attention to changes in behavior, appetite, energy level, or anything else that may be important, and I’ll communicate with you promptly if I notice any concerns. I’ll treat your home with the same respect and care that I would want someone to show my own. You can also expect regular updates and photos so you can feel connected and reassured while you’re away. My goal is for you to return to a happy, comfortable pet and have complete peace of mind knowing they were cared for with kindness, responsibility, and genuine affection.

“Alex was prompt to respond, caring with the dogs and sent detailed pictures. Allowed us to go out of town without concern.”

“I could not have been happier with Tatyana's care of my cats during my 8-day vacation. I am a very nervous traveler, largely due to worries about the pets, and Tatyana really helped me have a great trip. She spent quality time playing with the boys on each visit and provided full reports, including photos and videos. It was a great experience and I can't recommend her highly enough.”

Jenny N.

“Paige was extremely communicative, reliable and amazing! She sent update pictures for every visit and assured me that my pet bunny Luna was happy, healthy and well cared for. I was worried since most people don't have much experience with bunnies, but Paige asked thorough questions to make sure she cared for Luna in the best way possible. Would extremely recommend her!”

About: I have several years of experience in dog care, I offer a personalized, loving and responsible service. I specialize in the care of puppies, as well as in the accompaniment of older dogs. What sets me apart is my focus on the emotional well-being of each pet: I don't just take care of it, but I connect. I adapt to their routines, their fears and their needs, as if they were part of my own family. In addition, I send daily updates with photos and comments so that the guardians are always calm. My commitment is to create a safe, stimulating and loving environment, so that your furry friend is happy even when you are not around. Pet care is an essential part of my day-to-day life. I organize my routine according to the needs of each furry friend, ensuring enough time for walks, feeding, play, rest and personalized attention. Whether it's during the week or on weekends, I always reserve specific spaces to provide quality care, without haste and with a lot of dedication. For me, it's not just another task of the day: it's a responsibility that I enjoy and value deeply. Each visit or walk is an opportunity for connection, affection and trust. Whether I take care of pets in my home or in the client's home, my priority is always their safety, well-being, and comfort. I make sure that each space is safe, free of dangerous objects, and adapted to their needs (such as quiet rest areas, play areas, and constant access to fresh water). In my house, dogs are integrated as part of the family: they are not in cages or locked up, but they share spaces with me, with constant supervision, daily walks, and lots of love. I follow their usual routines to make them feel at home, and I keep the environment clean, ventilated, and respectful of the environment. When the care is in the client's home, I absolutely respect their instructions, their rules, and the pet's space. I maintain the cleanliness, routine, and tranquility of the animal to avoid any stress. In addition, I maintain fluid communication with the guardians so that they are always aware of how their furry friend is doing.

About: I have 9 years of hands-on animal rescue experience including fostering, TNR work and caring for pets from outdoor rescues. Through this volunteer work and my unconditional genuine love for all animals, I’ve learned to be patient, observant, and gentle, giving each animal the time and care they need to feel safe and comfortable. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine, and I make sure I have the time and flexibility to give each pet my full attention. I prioritize consistency, clear communication, and unhurried visits so pets feel relaxed and well cared for. I’m especially comfortable caring for rescue pets and understand that trust can take time, so I always move at each pet’s pace and respect their individual boundaries.

“Ziying was a wonderful cat sitter for our drop-in visits. She is very kind, caring, and easy to communicate with. She kept me updated before visit and shared lots of photos and videos, which I really appreciated. My cats were well taken care of, and I felt completely at ease. I would definitely book Ziying again in the future and highly recommend her.”

“This was the first drop-in visit prior to our travel plan that should take place one week later. Therefore this visit was more like getting acquainted with each other, including the dog. Alex was good at interacting with my GSD Candy. We also had a very warm conversation. My wife and myself have trust in Alex. So does Candy. Unfortunately our cruise was canceled due to coronavirus thread. But when we use the FCC (Future Cruise Credits), we will definitely need Alex again.”

About: I’ve lived with animals my whole life: dogs, cats, fish, rodents, parakeet. My sister is a marine mammal trainer, and I appreciate the advice she’s shared about shaping behavior and interpreting body language. I have yet to meet a dog I don’t like (and vice versa!) I’m a physician assistant student finishing up my degree in May. I currently have a lot of flexibility with scattered zoom classes and studying. Looking for pet sitting or walks to break up the studying ◡̈ Pets need love, attention, and patience. I walk my mom’s dog daily and tend to all her grooming (and of course give her lots of pets).

About: I provide expert, heart-centered care for all ages—from puppy training and "zoomies" to gentle senior medication and mobility support. Your pet's safety and happiness come first. Pet care fits seamlessly into my part-time schedule. I dedicate mornings, evenings, and weekends to focused walks, puppy play, and senior care, ensuring your pet’s routine stays consistent. I provide a consistent environment with safe, supervised play, frequent potty breaks, and cozy rest areas. I strictly follow your home rules and medication schedules.

About: I have taken care of my friend's cat on multiple occasions which included feeding her, cleaning up messes, and entertaining her. I have also dog sat before for friends and dog walked for family members. I currently have a flexible schedule where I am working only some weeks and have most weekends free. On weeks when I am working I am usually free after 3 to dog sit. I have a fenced yard and a quiet neighborhood. I am very careful with pets giving them space when needed and checking on them frequently to make sure all is well.

About: Our own furbabies are reactive so I definitely know the struggles of finding someone who understands! I’ve learned a lot of knowledge from our trainer and am very detail oriented/structured when it comes to providing care! I currently work full time but am looking for another source of income when I am free! I am a teacher so I have breaks off when the children do, and have plenty of weekends off as well for date nights, vacations, etc! I only provide pet care in clients home, as boarding in my own home would cause stress to our reactive dogs. Open to learning and sticking to your schedule as much as possible so your furbaby doesn’t experience too much of a drastic change without you there!

“Tianying was thoughtful and communicative and shared lots of updates with us when she came to check in on our cats, even though coco was hiding!”

About: I focus on providing consistent, in-home care so pets can remain comfortable, relaxed, and well cared for in their own environment. I am fully insured and currently accepting new clients. I typically like to schedule a brief Meet & Greet before confirming a new booking so we can ensure a good fit and review your pet’s routine and needs. As part of my care, I provide light, routine walks at a comfortable pace on flat neighborhood routes to support your dog’s daily routine and overall well-being. I have cared for dogs since childhood and have always had a strong bond with them. At the time, I fed my dogs, bathed them, walked them around the neighborhood, and played with them in my backyard. I always had a special bond with my dogs and was very protective of them. I bring that same protective, loving care to every dog I look after. I provide in-home pet sitting and dog walking services within the city of Fremont, CA. I care for dogs one year of age and older, with a primary focus on in-home care where pets receive plenty of time, attention, and companionship. I specialize in dog care and am not currently accepting cat-only bookings. Basic care for household cats may be included during house sitting visits for an additional fee. Dog walking is provided at a light pace on flat, neighborhood routes and is best suited for dogs who enjoy a relaxed, low-intensity routine. My current availability is primarily weekends, along with limited evening availability depending on schedule. I offer daytime visits, drop-in visits, walks, and overnight stays within Fremont. I follow each pet’s feeding, walking, and care routine closely to ensure consistency and comfort while helping minimize extended periods of time alone. Please send me a message with your dates and pet details, and we can arrange a Meet & Greet. I look forward to caring for your pet. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their normal routine so pets feel comfortable, secure, and relaxed. I make sure food, water, light walks, and potty breaks are handled on schedule, provide playtime and companionship, and always keep the home safe and tidy. In the event of illness or an emergency, I will contact you immediately and follow your designated veterinary instructions. If needed, I will also contact Rover’s 24/7 Trust & Safety Support for guidance. I ask that all clients provide an emergency contact who is located nearby and able to assist with transport or additional support if required.

“Jennifer is great! Very thoughtful and loving toward my dogs, which i wasn't expecting. She also takes the best pictures! Will definitely use her again.”
