Pet Sitting in San Anselmo

About: Since high school I have pet sat for family and friends and I'm also a lifelong pet owner of both cats and dogs! My dog growing up was a Samoyed, giving me lots of experience in handling strong energetic dogs and I've had many cats throughout my life. Some, like my current cat Albus, were very cuddly, while others were very shy and reserved. This lifelong experience has allowed me to learn how to handle all sorts of different needs and personalities of every animal I meet and know the challenges and joys of pets at any age. Currently I have one pet named Albus, he's a very grumpy looking Norwegian Forest who loves to cuddle, take naps in the sun, and people watch through the windows of our house. He is also very mischievous and likes to mess with people by laying right where he knows you'll walk so he gets extra pets with no effort! All of this gives me the experience needed to ensure your pets get lots of playtime, daily walks, plenty of treats, as many pets as your fur-baby desires, and making sure they get any pills they need on time! I also know how stressful traveling away from your pet can be, so I will be sending plenty of pictures and will respond to any texts as quickly as possible to ensure you won't have to stress during your vacation! My shedule is very flexible, occasionally I will be out of town on contract but in the time I am home I will be able to cater to your pets schedule. I'll keep a close eye on your pet while I'm there and my main goal is to make sure their usual schedule is kept! so the more details of pet care you can give me the better. I'll make sure they get walks, meals, medicine etc. at the correct times to ensure the health and happiness of your pet. I am also happy to do household tasks like watering plants or taking out the trash. I will also always ensure all doors are locked, and there's a light on when I leave (unless requested otherwise) to make sure your pet is as safe as possible while I'm away.

“Enlin was great! She was communicative, dependable, and friendly. She was very sweet with my dog and it seemed like they had a very fun time together. I would definitely use Enlin’s services again. Highly recommend!”

“After a last-minute cancellation, I turned to Rover and found Krystal. She was incredibly accommodating on short notice, taking great care of my three noisy Chihuahuas while I was away. She kept me updated with photos and reassured me that they were doing well. I highly recommend her and will be reaching out to Rover & Krystal in the future.”

“Kathryn is wonderful. We have appreciated her good humor and patience during the long (but very worthwhile) process of our dog Hildy getting to know a new person. We look forward to working with her going forward.”

About: I've been in the pet care field for nearly a decade and a pet parent for more than 12 years. My senior dog has taught me a lot about her care as she has aged. So I understand that it isn't just about the walk but about patience & companionship, too. I've also cared for feline friends at their homes while their families have been away. I have plenty of time for your dog or cat Saturday, Sunday, Monday & Tuesday for neighborhood walks, local outings, daycare or litter box and play. Where I live there is an enclosed deck with plenty of toys where we can play and take a daycare break together while you're running errands. There's also AC indoors when it's too hot outside. If a medicated pill or tablet is needed, we can give that with a pill pocket or other snack but I will not administer injected medications or fluids.

“Susan did a fantastic job looking after our 3 dogs and getting them some much needed playtime. Happy that we have connected with her and will hire her again.”

About: I was a veterinary technician for almost 13 years. I worked with large and small animals. I also groomed animals for 4 years. I owned and ran my grooming business out of my home in St. Helena. I am a CSR at a vet hospital in Fairfax. I need to be home to care for my mother who is having health struggles so looking for more work closer to home. I am caring for my mother at home. I have lots of free time to fit in my schedule for walks, visiting homes and checking on all kinds of pets. I am open to exotics also. I have a fenced yard and 3 friendly cats. We have room for your doggy crates, beds, and toys if need be. I am also willing to come by houses and visit. I will not do over night stays but doggies are welcome to stay overnight here at my home.

About: I’ve always loved animals and have a dog of my own, so I understand how important it is to find someone you trust. I treat every pet with the same care and respect I give my own. Whether it’s a walk, drop-in, or overnight stay, I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for. I’m on summer break from school, so I have lots of free time to give your pets the care and attention they deserve. I do work part-time, but my schedule is flexible and changes often—just let me know what times you need, and I’ll do my best to make it work for you and your furry friend! When caring for pets in your home, I focus on keeping your pet safe and comfortable while following your instructions closely. I’m respectful of your space and make sure to keep everything tidy and calm, so both your pet and home feel well cared for.

About: Ambidextrous (dog, cat, all!) pet lover here to make sure your best friend is happy, healthy, and safe while you're away. Playtime, mealtime, and pets; multiple days or a quick one-day drop-in, I'm here for it. I pride myself on having great pet energy, and reading/respecting their body language. I'm currently working part time from home in San Rafael, so I have a flexible schedule for drop-ins: walks, meals, playtime/inside/yard exercise, or just a bit of human interaction are all on the menu. I take locking doors and windows seriously in my own home, for myself and my own indoor pet. I maintain the same level of care for clients.

“Layla did a fantastic job taking care of my cats. She even cleaned up a flower vase that my cat knocked over. Everything looked really clean when I got back. I would definitely book her again.”

“If you have any doubts about leaving your furry friend in the care of a home sitter, Marisa will put your anxieties to rest. She took great care of my good buddy Gus the Cat, hanging out with him, giving him treats, and sending daily images of the little guy. I simply could not be more pleased, or grateful.”

“Lydia did a stellar job! She is reliable, on time and a she understands how to take of a cat, which is rare. I can tell she was here and actually paid attention to our cat because of the cat’s behavior when I got home. I would recommend her to another cat owner”

About: I've had dogs in my life since I was a middle schooler. Between my family dogs and dogs who have lived in my home since then I have been responsible for at least 7 dogs, of all shapes, sizes and demeanors. I've kept moody Dachshunds, energetic Shelties, even tempered Retrievers and even rescue Pitbulls. I love hiking and getting outdoors, and bringing a canine friend along. I currently have one dog of my own, a peppy rescue mix, and he is my best friend I am available to dog/house sit very regularly. I am an ecological land designer working most days from home with the exception of days where I need to do a site visit or connect with my team in person. I can pretty much work from anywhere with a good internet connection, so most days would be able to be around in case your dog needs more frequent walks or attention. In addition to dogs I love other pets and plants! If you have house plants, a veggie garden or other plants that need some watering or attention while you're away I'll be able to help in the department as well! I work from home most days, so I am able to be flexible around a pets needs regarding feeding, walks, and medication. Ocassionally I do have to leave home for work, and that is typically up to 4 hours. We have one dog at home and since we don't have a yard, we typically take him up on the ridge to walk, or to the Red hill Dog park or San Quentin beach. These are great places to have some fun exercise

About: I have cared for dogs and cats since I was very young, I have been interested in the care and well-being of pets when their parents need help, I like to play with them, take them for a walk and pamper them a lot. I currently work part-time, when I have to stay at the owner's house I feed them and take them out very early before I go out to work and I'm back and I'm back for a walk we play food and then I go to study and I'm back and I'm going to take it out for a walk again. Always following the rules and rules of the house and taking great caution, they close doors and always leave everything in place for better experience
