Pet Sitting Riverside

“Cameron was super communicative and took great care of our 10.5 week old cockapoo puppy Dunkin. He got Dunkin to pee which is super impressive!”

Connie H.

“Was incredibly attuned to my lil anxious Winston, provided consistent helpful feedback & was just overall a perfect pet sitter for my baby boy! I was nervous using rover for the first time, and Rachel exceeded my expectations & went above and beyond. Will be working with her again!”

Keelin R.

“Coral was very patient and generous to put in more time than the 30 minutes that we booked, as our dog was very timid for this first visit!”

Ethan B.

“Amanda was amazing!! All updates were thorough and she took so many good pictures, she spent lots of time playing and cuddling with our cat, who clearly loved her too :) highly recommend!!!”

Mia O.

“Weiwei took excellent care of our three cats. She was reliable and easy to coordinate with, and every visit she would send a ton of photos of her playing with the cats. It was very nice getting to see those photos while we were away. We'd hire her again in a heartbeat.”

Victoria E.

“Stephanie did a great job with my cat Pepper. She was very communicative the entire time and made sure that everything was taken care of while I was away. Thank you so much Stephanie!”

“Thomas is a great walker and sitter who takes lovely care of Atlas! They are attentive, kind, and great at communication and Atlas love them!”

“Amanda was thoughtful and delightful to work with for drop-in care. Our puppy Rosie just had surgery, so had to restrict her activities and be carried up/downstairs. Amanda followed Rosie's post surgery care instructions and kept Rosie calm and happy. We loved the picture updates. Amanda patiently sat outside with Rosie to get fresh air. Amanda was always on time and very flexible for last minute changes. Would definitely recommend Amanda.”

About: I'm a life-long dog lover who doesn't have the schedule for a dog full time. Bad news for me, good for you because I have SO much love to give during my free time that your pup will be treated like royalty. I am an educated professional with sound judgement who understands that dogs miss their pack mates when they are away. I will do everything I can to make your dog comfy until that tail-wagging moment when you get back. I will also send you regular updates to show you how much fun your pup is having. I work full time but can give a long walk before and after work. On the weekends, I can go for regular potty walks plus a longer adventure walk. I live in Cambridgeport which has parks full of new smells every few blocks. I am a regular four-legged companion sitter for friends (they know who gives the best snuggles) and lived with dogs through much of my childhood. My condo is on one floor with a half-flight of stairs to the outside.

“I am so so grateful for Alyssa! She was able to watch my two cats for what was a pretty last minute trip. She was super timely, always very responsive, and took a ton of pictures with each check in. My cats loved her and clearly felt very calm and cared for while i was gone. She also left great updates and i felt so reassured. Couldn’t recommend her more - she is great with cats and i assume all other animals too :) thank you Alyssa!!”

About: I love spending time with and taking care of my friends’ pets whenever possible! I’ve been trusted to cat sit (drop ins with Benji or Tiki for a couple of days at a time) and dog sit (cared for little Teddy at my apartment for two weeks while his parents were away) for my friend’s furry little ones on several occasions. While I love having fun with the animals in my care, I will always prioritize their safety when I am with them. In addition to loving my friends’ pets, I spent a year nannying for families with dogs whose care I was entrusted with. I looked after (picked up from day care, walked, and fed) two golden retrievers (Kody and Bella) as well as 8 month old Vizla puppy, Yofi! Spending time with them was the highlight of my days and I can’t wait to have a pup in my own home. I’m a student and available early mornings, evenings, and weekends! I also have time during the day to drop in on your pet or take them out for a walk! I’m a student full-time but I have some time before, between, and after classes every day! My weekends are pretty free, they just require a little bit of extra planning to make adequate time for your pet. I will always follow your rules/routines while your pet is in my care, whether it is in my own home or at yours. I will always treat your pet the way I would want mine to be treated. I will also communicate as frequently/infrequently as you’d like, I make it a habit to keep pet owners up to date with our activities!

“Gabrielle was an amazing pet sitter for my cat and I’m so glad I found her. My cat was having a lot of separation anxiety when I left for my trip, but Gabrielle took over like a professional cat whisperer and helped calm her and cared for her with her with a lot of attention to detail and I was so grateful! She was responsible, communicative, great with instructions and went above and beyond sending lots of pictures and updates for every visit which I loved, appreciated and looked forward to seeing everyday. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing my cat is in such good hands. She’s been an absolute star sitter and I would highly recommend her!”

“Sara was very sweet! She took the time to play with my cat Ana and spend time with her, overall she was punctual and easy to communicate with :)”

Gurleen G.

“Kayla stopped by to check on our cats while we were away for our wedding weekend! We were able to fully enjoy the celebration knowing that our guys were in good hands :) she was very responsive and energetic and clearly enjoys taking care of pets!”

About: I’ve grown up around dogs my whole life, including two Labrador Retrievers named Maverick and Goose, and a Beagle that I cared for over 10 years, so I’m very comfortable with daily routines, exercise, and understanding different personalities. I’ve also done several overnight house-sitting and dog care jobs, working with a wide range of breeds, from small dogs like pugs to larger, high-energy dogs like huskies. I’ve always had a genuine love for animals and caring for them. The first animal I really fell in love with was a manatee when I was about 5 years old living in Florida, and that kind of stuck with me. My time as a kid was spent at the beach boogie boarding out into the ocean hoping a dolphin would find me and become my friend. Growing up, I loved going to the aquarium and the zoo to learn about different animals, and I’ve always been especially drawn to red pandas and stingrays. That curiosity and appreciation carries over into how I care for pets—I really enjoy getting to know each animal’s personality and making sure they feel safe and happy. In addition, I have a lot of hands-on caregiving experience through taking care of my brother who has special needs, as well as working with special needs youth. That’s taught me to be patient, attentive, and very in tune with individual needs, which I bring into how I care for animals as well. Pet care honestly fits into my routine really naturally because it’s something I genuinely enjoy and look forward to. I have a part-time job in the mornings and some evenings, so I have a lot of flexibility during the day to spend quality time with dogs—whether that’s going on long walks, stopping by for visits, or just hanging out and keeping them company. I grew up with dogs and took care of my Beagle for 10 years, so I’m very used to building my day around their needs. It doesn’t feel like a task to me—it’s something I love doing. Being around dogs, getting outside, and making sure they’re happy and cared for is something I naturally make time for every day. I focus on making pets feel comfortable, safe, and at ease by sticking closely to their normal routine. I know how important consistency is, so I follow feeding schedules, walk times, and any specific instructions carefully. When I’m in a client’s home, I’m very respectful of their space and make sure their dog is always supervised and within my sight. I pay attention to their behavior and energy so I can respond to what they need, whether that’s a long walk, playtime, or just relaxing together so they don’t feel alone. If I’m caring for a pet in my own home, I create a calm, safe environment where they get plenty of attention, exercise, and downtime. I really just try to treat every dog like my own and make sure they feel happy and cared for the whole time.

“Alexandra was a joy to work with. Reliable, professional, kind and a great communicator. We will definitely request her help in the future.”

“Roselle has watched my cat Spooks twice now and she takes such great care of her! My cat is super high energy and Roselle takes the time to get out her zoomies and give her back scratches. Highly recommend!”
