House Sitting in Mt Eden, Hayward, CA

“We love working with Anais! Her care of our senior Schipperke, Maz, has been expert and attentive. Being 17 years old, Maz has a lot of needs and Anais has cared for him both during the day and overnight, and we've been so grateful for her attentiveness to him around his routine, his meds, and for making sure he feels taken care of and loved. We're so glad we connected with Anais and will definitely be contacting her in the future!”

“My cats warmed right up to Demi! It was a great peace of mind having her stay in my home with them so they wouldn't be bored or lonely with an empty house while I was away on a weekend trip. Demi was communicative and sent frequent updates and pictures, which I really appreciated. I will definitely be booking with her again!”

“It’s not easy to find a dog sitter who are experienced with petite senior dogs. Especially with dementia. Liz understands Meow Meow so well and took great care of her. This is the first time that I don’t need to worry about Meow Meow when I travel ever since she has dementia. Thank you Liz. I am so glad we found you.”

“Our puppy is a handful so we have a lot that we asked Victoria to pay attention to - she always took our instructions to heart and I really appreciated that! Our pup had a great time”

“Ariena took great care of our pup while we were away. She sent lots of photos to help with my “mom guilt” so I knew that he was being well cared for. She stayed at our place and she left it well cared for! I will definitely be using her again for our future pet sitting needs!”

“Katie was a pleasure to work with! Our dog was well cared for, including looking after a last minute hurt paw and some extra effort to make dog food when there was a shortfall. She kept in very good touch about questions that came up, and sent some adorable pics of our puppy during her two-week stay. House was in great shape when we came back, including houseplants.”

“America was amazing! She was responsive and so respectful of our home (cleaned up after herself and took out the trash, which was a nice surprise). We booked her last minute because our friend got sick and we appreciated how accommodating she was. One of my dogs needs daily pills administered, and she was able to do that without a problem (other people usually struggle). I can tell how comfortable my dogs were with her by how easily they ate their food. I also appreciated the daily updates. She was very communicative, which made our trip worry-free. I would fully trust her with my dogs and home again.”

“We are very appreciative of Nola taking care of Brandy at the last minute while we were out of town. Brandy was well taken care of with her daily walks and even going to the dog park and beach. We will definitely have Nola take care of Brandy for future trips if she is available.”

“I was very nervous about leaving my dog Cornelius for a week but Adrienne was great! She took good care of Cornelius and the house. She provided several images of him playing and looking happy that set my mind at ease. Would 100% recommend.”

“Nicholas is a very caring and funny person. He took care of my dog for about two years and in those two years I've never had any issues or complaints. He has always been a great at his job and I would totally recommend him to anyone that needs help with their dog. Another plus is that Nick has the dog in him, making him an even better candidate.”

“Chika is such an amazing pet-sitter! She took was very attentive to all of my pets, while also taking care of my house while I away. She watered my plants, took the trash to the curb, took care of my babies and overall left my home better than I did! 10/10 recommend”

“An actual animal lover, Mayra has always cared and provided so much love to not only her own but everyone’s pets! end of the day they are our babies! With full acknowledgement that our pets need the care, time, and support, Mayra offers all the above including the proper attention and love required for every pet, especially important when being a caregiver. Expect more than 100% and your fur babies to be in safe hands!”

“Our animals were in good hands with Christina. She was communicative, friendly and reliable. We felt safe leaving our animals with her and have already booked her again!”

“Francis was a fantastic sitter, providing high-attention care of both our pets and our house while we were away. He took careful notes, tracked medications, proved highly flexible with unexpected changes, and even managed to make quick friends with our elusive cats. Francis is the first sitter to interview us during the meet-and-greet, rather than the other way around. From the moment we met, we knew that Francis was a different kind of sitter. Francis is a caretaker. We strongly recommend Francis for your pet and house sitting needs.”

“Our little 'Spaz' just loves Veronica! My anxious little tri-pawed rescue pup immediately bonded with her, and I had no worries for the rest of the weekend. What a blessing! Will definitely book Veronica again.”

“Eleni watched our dog at our house for a week while we were out of town and did a wonderful job!! We would absolutely use her again. She left the house spotless and our pup was very happy!”

“Kan was attentive and asked great questions to take the best care of my pets. He was above my expectations.”

About: My wife and I are very active in various community efforts and support our local Animal Shelter in a number of ways, including starting Santacon Hayward 12 years ago to raise funds! We have helped sponsor over 400 adoptions at the shelter, and have rescued our two boys from there, too! Both of our dogs have special needs (one is blind and the other is deaf) so I have experience with special needs and older dogs. Having raised several dogs over the years, I can assist with routines and stay with established habits they are used to. I'm retired from my career and have general availability during the week and weekends, any hours of the day. I appreciate a few days notice to ensure my availability and can house/pet sit for up to 15 days or longer by arrangement. I am highly trustworthy with your pets and your home. I will leave your property and your pets in great condition during my stay at your place. During drop-in visits, I will spend 20-30 minutes with your pet. For dog walking, I will provide a 30 minute walk, depending on weather and neighborhood conditions. You can request 60 minutes for this service. I prefer attending to just one dog to give them maximum attention, but will consider two-dog households in certain circumstances and after a meet and greet only.

“Giana is not only cares for humans but she loves animals. She is patient, caring and she loves to nurture. I have the pleasure to know her for a few years now. She had a few pets and they are always happy. Her friend's pets are always happy to see her. She will care and love for you pet as if is hers. Giana is a great loving human that loves pets and will do anything for them.”

“Cashja was great with our two dogs, even though one of them is a blind senior and has lots of needs. We'll definitely ask her for her help again next time we're out of town.”
