Pet Sitting Pleasant Hill

About: What sets me apart as a sitter is how attentive and patient I am with animals. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and comfort level so they feel safe and relaxed while their owner is away. I’m very reliable, detail-oriented, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. I’m especially gentle with nervous or shy pets and make sure they get plenty of reassurance, exercise, and affection at their own pace. I’m comfortable following specific feeding schedules, administering basic care as instructed, and keeping owners updated with messages and photos so they have peace of mind. I truly enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel happy, cared for, and loved in a calm, positive environment. Pet care fits well into my weekly routine. I attend college on Mondays and Wednesdays, am mostly home and available on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and available Fridays until the evening. I work short weekend shifts but remain flexible for pet care before and after work. I live in an apartment with two cats and maintain a calm, clean, and safe environment. I carefully follow feeding, exercise, and medication instructions, give pets plenty of attention, and adjust care based on their comfort level. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their routines, keep spaces tidy, and provide updates so owners feel confident their pets are well cared for.

“Kelsie was fantastic! She was very timely, posted photos of each drop-in visit, and described each event that occurred during the visit. My wife and I highly recommend her!”

About: I’m a lifelong animal lover, starting my journey at just 12 years old, walking dogs and pet sitting for neighbors. Over the years, my passion for animals grew into a profession, and for 7 years, I’ve worked as a veterinary assistant. From managing health issues and ensuring proper exercise to offering endless love and attention, I provide care that goes above and beyond basic sitting. I have in-depth experience with administering medications, senior care, and specialized needs for puppies and kittens. As a passionate dog trainer, I’ve also successfully trained my own pup since he was just 4 months old, making him the well-behaved boy he is today. I am currently completing my Bachelor’s degree at Lane Community College while also participating in a summer internship. During this summer, I work Monday through Thursday from 6:30 AM to 4:00 PM, with an alternate schedule of 7:30 AM to 4:00 PM every other Friday. I am still available for midday check-ins during lunch, except Wednesdays. Outside of my work hours, my schedule remains flexible for you and your pets. I’m happy to coordinate drop-off and pickup times, but I do ask that we stick as closely as possible to the agreed-upon schedule, as changes may require rescheduling based on my availability that day. For recurring bookings, I do my best to maintain a consistent schedule. Occasionally, a day or time may need to be adjusted, especially during holiday months, and I’ll always provide advance notice whenever possible. For house sitting, I am not able to provide 24/7 constant care. I balance my own pets, family, work, school, loyal clients, and other commitments, so I focus on providing high-quality care during the times I’m available. Reasonable time limits for when I’m away can be arranged to ensure your pet’s routine and comfort are maintained. To keep my calendar updated and ensure I can continue receiving booking requests, please note: if you are requesting a sitting within one week, you’ll have 24 hours to respond before I archive the request. For bookings more than a week away, you’ll have 48 hours to respond before the request is archived. In my care, I strive to create a comfortable, stress-free environment for your pets, whether it’s in my home or yours. MEET & GREET: -During the initial meet & greet for boarding and doggy day care, you’re welcome inside my home to see where your pet(s) will be staying. After that, drop-offs and pickups happen from the car. This makes it easier and safer for me to introduce your pet(s) to my dog again, since pets often behave differently when their owner isn’t nearby. -The first meet & greet is complimentary. I require additional requested meet & greets and key pickups to be booked as drop-ins. -To keep things on schedule, meet & greets are 30 minutes. IN YOUR HOME: -I follow their routine closely, including feeding, walks, playtime, and medications. I monitor their health and behavior, give plenty of affection, and respect your space by keeping it clean and secure. IN MY HOME: -I provide a cozy, pet-friendly setting with structure, supervision, and love. I treat every pet like my own, ensuring they’re cared for with the same level of love and expertise. I have a well-behaved, friendly 15lb rescue pup that would love to be your pet's next best friend. -For the first night, I usually have pups sleep in a kennel. In my experience, pets can behave differently in a new environment, and kenneling provides a controlled, safe space to help them adjust. I’m happy to discuss your dog’s needs to ensure a comfortable and stress-free stay. Overall, my goal is to ensure your pets feel loved, comfortable, and secure in any environment while providing the expert care they need.

“Raven was absolutely amazing! When I met I had warned that my pup and I have never been apart since I got him. She was super understanding and took the time to help me feel comfortable while we were apart. She not only read through his Binder I left out for her but also did some of the training activitiestfrom his Binder. She sent me photos and videos of my lil guy so that I could vicariously be apart of his day. As an added bonus, I noticed that she even put his toys away. Im so used to his toys being all over the place so it was just a nice surprise to see them tucked away so neatly. I would absolutely recommend Raven and would honestly say that leaving your pet in her care will guarantee that they will have a good time and will be well cared for.”

Sammie B.

“Mia was incredible! She was communicative and detailed in her notes, read and followed our directions with no issues, and helped keep our fur babies happy for the weekend (even our reactive special pup) Will definitely be reaching out again. Thank you Mia!”

About: As a pre-veterinary student, I provide more than just pet sitting—I bring knowledge, patience, and a genuine passion for animal care. I have hands-on experience caring for dogs, cats, rabbits, birds, and other small animals through both personal ownership and animal care work. I'm comfortable caring for puppies, senior pets, and animals with special needs, including administering medications when needed. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and routine, and I strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, quiet companionship, or simply sticking to their normal routine, I'll provide attentive, reliable care and regular updates so you can have peace of mind. I'm currently home for the summer, so I have a very flexible schedule and can dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. Aside from occasional appointments and errands, I'm home throughout the day. Caring for animals is already a part of my daily routine, as I have pets of my own with established care schedules. Adding your pet into that routine allows me to provide consistent feeding, potty breaks, playtime, exercise, medication (if needed), and plenty of companionship. I always work to maintain your pet's normal routine as closely as possible so they feel safe and comfortable while you're away. Your pet's safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet's routine, personality, medical needs, and any household rules so I can provide care that's both safe and consistent. In my home, I maintain a clean, pet-friendly environment and closely supervise interactions. I carefully introduce new situations at each pet's comfort level and never leave animals in unsafe situations. When caring for pets in a client's home, I treat both the home and the animals with the same respect and care I would expect for my own. I follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, exercise routines, and any specific care requests exactly as directed. I also provide regular updates with photos so you can have peace of mind while you're away. As a pre-veterinary student, I'm attentive to changes in an animal's behavior or health and won't hesitate to contact you—and, if necessary, seek veterinary care—if I have concerns.

About: Hi, I'm Madeline! I'm always active taking my dogs for long walks and hikes, or to the local dog parks. I'm a lifelong dog lover, and proud dog mom. While I’m new to Rover, I bring years of trusted experience walking and sitting dogs of all breeds, sizes, and ages from playful 8-week-old puppies to wise 13-year-old seniors. The dogs I'm carrying in the photos have been family to me since they were pups, and ones I've had the pleasure of looking out for. Friends and family have relied on me time and time again, one even called me a dog whisperer after watching me connect with their strong-willed pointer mix! I’ve studied basic training techniques through a puppy obedience course, guidance from a professional trainer, and good ol' YouTube. These tools help me better understand each dog’s energy and needs, whether they’re high-reactive adventurers or mellow cuddlebugs. My goal is always to make your dog feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you're away. Let’s set up a meet-and-greet because I’d love to connect with you and your pup! Whether your pet needs regular daily walks, last-minute check-ins, or extended sitting while you're out of town, I’m here to help. My open availability means I can easily accommodate your pet’s routine and make sure they get consistent care and attention. I've had the pleasure of dog sitting and walking for close friends and family, always making sure to follow any specific instructions provided. Since summer days can get especially hot, I’m always prepared by carrying a bag with essentials like water, a bowl, treats, poop bags, and a frisbee. For my dogs, if the pavement is too hot (I always check with the back of my hand), they wear protective boots to prevent burns, and if you're dog has some little booties, I'll make sure their paws stay protected and take frequent shade breaks. On those extra hot days when it’s safer to stay indoors, I make sure my dogs still get their energy out with games, enrichment toys, and fun training tricks. I love keeping things playful while prioritizing safety and well-being.

About: I got my first pet at 18, a kitten who was from a stray in the neighborhood. I still have that cat today she is 16 and a 1 year old rescued chihuahua mix. I’ve fostered over 30 dogs and a few kittens, volunteered at our local animal shelters and worked events trying to find pets loving homes. I love caring for animals and being a person animals trust. I am a self employed person so my schedule is very flexible, I take my own dog on daily walks and can fit things in easily. My animals are the center of my world and I am always wanting them to be safe, comfortable and loved. I will do the exact same for your babies within your household boundaries. But mine will always sleep in my bed! :)

“So so so glad that we can rely on Kristine over and over again to care for our pets whenever we ask. No one makes it so easy and stress free as Kristine. Thanks for always being so great to my family and for all the times you’ve gone above and beyond for us!”
