House Sitting North Stonehurst

About: As a dedicated wildlife and pet caretaker with a passion for understanding and protecting animal habitats, I have spent years immersed in the wonders of the natural world. As a pet owner for over six years, I’ve deepened my appreciation for the unique bonds that form between humans and animals, whether in our homes or in the wild. Currently, I take care of my beloved rescue Siberian husky Niko. As well I spend some of my free time looking after my friend’s dogs and cats. My goal as a caregiver is to provide a safe and stimulating environment for pets' minds and bodies. Currently I’m graduate of Drexel university and have a very flexible schedule. I’m free Thursday-Sunday mostly in the mornings to late afternoons. Depending on the day I can also do evenings It is important to that pets are comfortable and feel safe all conditions. I make it a rule of thumb to keep dogs on leash during public walks and around other pets. If there is a fenced in area I will make it a priority to check and see if the area is properly supervised and secure for your pet. On regular walks having fun is always number 1. If your pet wants to chill inside and needs cuddles, or wants to take an extra adventure i’m always down.

“Alejandra was great. My dog instantly loved her. She was easy to work with, communicative, and I knew my dog was safe with her. I hired her back again the same week.”

About: Greetings! I'm Patrick. I've done a bunch of pet and house sitting on another platform, as well as for family, friends and acquaintances, besides having my own pets or sharing them with past partners. I used to practice massage therapy and reiki. I bring a similar intention to handling pets that I brought to responding to clients needs. I'd like to do part-time pet care in the East Bay, with some availability to housesit for longer sits around the full Bay Area. I can be more spontaneous for pet care near Oakland depending upon the timing. For longer resident sits please try to give me a week or two notice with a request. I'll see what works. Thanks! What an honor it is to care for people's homes and pets! I feel excited to transition my pet and house-sitting to this platform. Thanks for your consideration. I enjoy caring for pets and homes. I appreciate the trust-building process, staying accountable and growing as a person, all which these experiences foster. I intend to be a respectful well-communicating sitter and to provide a safe fun atmosphere for your pets. I appreciate receiving questions and feedback during a video chat or in person meet and greet where we get to know each other.

“Natasha was very responsive, let me know when my dogs weren’t feeling well, and left them happy and well taken care of! Would definitely recommend!”

About: Since I was a kid, I have always loved pets. When I was 11 years old, I was the one who fed our four dogs. I loved spending time with them—I even taught them how to sit, lie down, give a high five, and more. Every time I came home from school, we would play together. Back in 2020, I rescued my deaf cat, Lili, after seeing her attacked by a stray dog in our town. She even had a broken bone, and I couldn’t just leave her like that, so I decided to adopt her. As time passed, I didn’t realize that my cat family was growing. Now, I have rescued 2 cats and i have been feeding 13 stray cats that goes in our backyard It’s just sad that I had to leave them with my dad in our home country because I had to move to the United States. We have 3 dogs, 2 indoor cats, 1 stray dog and 13 stray cats that i have been feeding. I am not currently working because I’m still looking for a job, so I have plenty of free time and a flexible schedule that i could spend with your pets Right now, we don’t have any pets at home, but I always leave cat food outside our door in case a stray cat passes by, so they can have something to eat. I can walk, play with, teach tricks, and even bathe your pets if you'd like!

“Laura’s first time dog sitting for us went smoothly. This was an overnight trip. She sent us photo updates and was responsive when we texted to check in. When we got home, the house was tidy, their water bowls were filled, and Cannoli and Da Vinci were in good spirits. We’ve booked Laura for an extended stay while we’re on an international trip. Thanks, Laura!”

About: I grew up around animals and have always loved caring for them. I have experience caring for neighbors’ dogs and currently work part-time with a pet care company, where I help with walking and caring for dogs of different sizes and personalities. I’m reliable, patient, and bilingual in English and Spanish. I’ll treat your pets with the same love and care I’d give my own! ❤️ I work remotely part-time for a pet care company and make my own schedule, so I have plenty of flexibility for walks, drop-ins, and house sitting. I’m excited to offer my own services as well and spend even more time caring for pets. I always follow each pet’s normal routine and their parent’s instructions closely. I make sure doors, gates, leashes, food, and medications are handled safely, and I’m happy to do a meet and greet beforehand. I’ll also send regular updates and photos so you can feel comfortable knowing your pet is safe and cared for.

“Johnatan took care of my dog for 2 weeks. He’d feed her and walk her twice a day. He was always respectful and kept me posted about my dog’s activities. He washed the linens before departing and even gave my dog a quick bath (he forgot the blow-drying part though). As much as I’d like to give him 5 stars, there’s still room for improvement as he forgot to leave the sliding door open for the dog to go outside leading to the dog peeing and popping inside of the house. He sometimes took 8+ hours to get back home and a couple of nights he wasn’t able to return at all and my dog slept alone. The latter due to he working part time at a place located 1 hr away from our home. Overall, a thrustful boy who just needs to get more experience.”

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and genuinely love caring for them. I have a 8 year old Miniature Pinscher, Norman, who has taught me a lot about patience, routines, and making dogs feel safe and comfortable in their own way. (I don’t have him with me full time) I’m comfortable with dogs of different personalities and energy levels, and I’m happy to follow your pup’s usual routine, whether that means long walks, playtime, plenty of cuddles, or simply keeping them company. I’ll treat your dog like my own and keep you updated while you’re away. I am home in the morning and evenings on the weekdays. I am free to take your pets out on walks every couple hours or as needed. I prioritize safety and trust by maintaining a clean, secure environment for pets. I ensure their routines are followed, provide plenty of playtime and affection, and always keep a close eye on them to prevent any accidents. Your pets will feel comfortable and cared for in my home or yours. I have a fenced in yard as well

“Nina did an amazing job housesitting with our two dogs. She was incredibly polite, responsive, genuine and honest. When we had to modify our reservation due to unforeseen circumstances she was able to adapt and, on her own accord, went above and beyond to make sure the trip was successful. We would feel comfortable having her in our house and taking care of our dogs at any time. I can't say enough great things about her.”

Tristan K.

“We had a great experience with our dog /house sitter, Julia! She was reliable, caring, and kept us updated with photos and messages throughout the stay. She also kept our home clean and treated it with respect. It was clear our dog was happy, well cared for, and received plenty of attention and love. We felt completely at ease knowing our pet was in such good hands. We would definitely recommend her and would happily book with her again!”

Shizuka D.

“Christina was a wonderful care taker for our pets and house. She provided timely updates and communications. The pets where very happy and well cared for when we got home. I could not recommend her enough for anyones furry friends.”

“Karla was amazing! She took care of our pup and home as if it was her own. We are so appreciative for her care and respect. Thank you Karla!”

Maria F.

“Meshaal was a wonderful dog and house sitter! He has a calm demeanor and is very professional. He took excellent care of our senior dog who has some health needs and took care of all his medications with no issues. He also promptly responded to all our check in messages. Our dog loved Meshaal and and was crying when he left! Meshaal also left our house better than we left it. Looking forward to rebooking with Meshaal again in the future. Would definitely recommend Meshaal to others!”

Jacqueline E.

“Yasmeen was amazing! She was so friendly, communicative, and warm. She genuinely cares about building a relationship with the animals she looks after. She sends constant updates to let you know how things are going. She was a wonderful sitter and we would be so happy to have her look after our dog, Skylar, again! They became the best of friends. ?”

Sanna N.

“Tami stayed with my two cats for one week and she made my time away stress free. She was in communication multiple times daily to let me know what they were up to and sent lots of pictures. When I got home at the end of the week, the cats were relaxed and happy. No problems at all. I highly recommend Tami!”

Terra F.

“Stephanie has watched my pets twice, now! She's a great communicator, I get loads of pics, and my babies are always much more chill when I come home from a trip if she's been watching them.”
