House Sitting in Richmond

“Mayra was very responsive when first booking and throughout the sit. She came for a meet and greet which was wonderful and put my mind at ease. I received updates and photos for the two nights she stayed with my pups which always makes my time away more relaxing. I came back to a clean and tidy house and happy dogs. Highly recommend and I would book her again anytime.”

About: Hi there! I'm an experienced pet sitter with over 10 years of professional experience right here in El Cerrito. I've had the pleasure of caring for all sorts of animals, from playful pups to quiet cats, and I truly love what I do. My goal is to provide your beloved pet with personalized, loving care, whether it's a fun walk, playtime, or just some comforting company. You can relax knowing your furry family member is in capable and caring hands while you're away. I'm excited to meet you and your pets! I have opened availability because I am a substitute teacher and do not work during the summers. I will schedule my availability around your pets needs. I provide loving attention, regular exercise, and a safe environment for pets in both my home and yours. I ensure they have playtime, cuddles, and consistent routines, keeping them happy and comfortable while you're away. Your pets are family! 🐾❤️

“Anita was fantastic while watching Hobbes, very communicative and caring for her while I was away. Everything was nice and orderly when I came back. I’ll definitely look to book with her again next time I have to travel! Thanks Anita ?”

“Harold was easy-going and accessible in the planning process. He is kind, practical, and good with dogs. Our dogs received great care, and he was especially careful with our elderly dog, doing extra work to help her and clean up after her, which we really appreciated. We used Harold for three nights of house-sitting and we found our home was in good order and the dogs were calm when we got home. Very happy to have found him!”

“Natasia was a wonderful house and dog sitter. She seemed at ease with a larger dog and made Honey feel comfortable right away. I could tell by the way that Honey interacted with Natasia that he liked her 💖🐶 Which warmed my heart and helped me feel less sad to leave. Very much looking forward to Honey getting to spend time with Natasia again.”

“Carlo was an amazing dog sitter for us! He was on time and communicated very well with detailed updates about the dogs care. He went above and beyond in providing exercise and loving care for our furry guy and we would definitely utilize him as a caretaker again. Thank you Carlo!”

“Our little Sadie was very well taken care of while we were out of town for an extended period of time. We returned home to find her and our home in tip top condition. Signe more than lived up to our expectations.”

“Hannah was an excellent sitter for Bisco. She kept me updated with pictures and information on times Bisco was walked and fed. She was very prompt and understanding of my worries with Bisco. Our home was left very clean! I've never felt more comfortable with anyone on the Rover app caring for Bisco. When we came home he was happy and calm, more so than any other time being left with a new person. I would reccomend Hannah to anyone and if I need Sitter service in the future I would absolutely ask Hannah again! Perfect all around!”

“All we have to say is wow! Thank you, Laurena, for keeping our pup so happy and healthy while we were away. She kept him busy and took him on outings even though it was raining, dressed him in his favorite clothes, and made sure he was fed and got lots of treats. Best of all, she communicated and told us all about their adventures. Laurena was also incredibly adaptable and accommodating given some challenges with our apartment’s water heater during the trip. She left the house in tip-top shape and I never doubted she had everything under control. Book Laurena if you want your dog to be loved and thrive when you are away.”
