House Sitting San Leandro

“My chihuahua and sisters German shepherd/black lab mix loved having Angelique stay with them during our weekend away. Angelique was so kind to do a visit ahead of time, was very communicative, and organized her schedule around our dogs. My dog loves to cuddle and definitely got all of the love from Angelique. We’d love to have her back to stay at our place with cooper in the future.”

“Daria kept us well informed on how the dogs were doing with photos and status updates. It was clear the dogs were comfortable with her as they went straight to their normal behaviors. Happy to have someone who allows us to enjoy our trip without worrying.”

About: Animals have always been a passion of mine. I have over 11 years on and off and 5 years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats. I've worked as a veterinary assistant in multiple settings, including a feline-focused practice and a facility that specialized in dog boarding and walking. These experiences taught me how to safely handle animals with different personalities, energy levels, medical needs, and comfort levels. Because of my veterinary background, I'm comfortable recognizing changes in behavior, stress, discomfort, and potential health concerns. I understand the importance of routine, patience, and positive interactions, and I strive to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owner is away. Whether your pet needs an energetic walk, playtime, medication support, extra attention, or simply a calm and reliable companion, I'll treat them with the same love and respect I would my own. My goal is to provide dependable care and give pet parents peace of mind knowing their furry family member is in good hands. I currently work full time at the zoo so my time is limited to before and after work and my weekends but I will do what I need to to meet your needs. I will always follow the owners instructions to a T and even go above and beyond to try and ease the clients worries in whatever ways I need to.

“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: Hi there! I’m a total people person with a heart that easily extends to pups of all sizes! I’ve been working as an Autism Specialist since I was 19, so patience, intuition, and building strong, trusting connections are truly my superpowers. I like to say I have that special energy humans and dogs both adore! For the past 7 years, I’ve been dog sitting for families in and around my neighborhood, as well as my parents’ neighborhood, caring for their fur babies like they’re my own. I understand how important it is for your dog to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I live in a spacious 2bedroom apartment with a spare room that gives pups plenty of indoor space to play and relax. Our complex also has lots of grassy areas perfect for fresh air, potty breaks, and nice walks. Whether your dog loves a structured routine, playtime, or cozy cuddle sessions, I’m happy to meet their needs! I’m reliable, communicative, and naturally attentive. and I genuinely get excited to host and care for pups in my home. Your dog’s happiness and well being will always be my priority. I can’t wait to meet your fur baby! 🐶✨ I work from home on Mondays, Thursdays, and Fridays, so your pup will have lots of supervision and attention on those days! I’m also available most weekends if you’re planning a little getaway and need reliable care! I care for every dog like they’re my own, keeping them on their normal routine as much as possible. I provide plenty of supervised playtime, structured walks, potty breaks, and cozy rest time in a safe, calm environment. I pay close attention to each dog’s personality and needs, whether they’re energetic and playful or prefer quiet cuddles and relaxation.

About: I’ve spent three years caring for dogs through walking and sitting, providing safe, loving, reliable support tailored to each pup’s personality, routine, and comfort needs.

“Diana arrived early which ended up being a blessing as we got ready to go! She did an incredible job as our dog was a bit standoffish at first. Diana quickly built a strong and trusting relationship with our pup and was very patient! Would definitely love to connect her with our dog again!”

About: Animals have always been a big part of my life, and I genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality. Whether it’s walks, playtime, cuddles, medication, or keeping a routine, I provide dependable, compassionate care. I treat every pet as if they were my own and keep pet parents updated with photos and messages throughout each visit. My schedule is flexible, allowing me to provide reliable care throughout the week. I do my best to accommodate each pet’s routine, whether that means walks, drop-in visits, boarding, or overnight stays. I believe consistency is important, so I communicate clearly and keep pet parents updated throughout every visit Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I have a secure, fenced yard where dogs can safely play and explore under supervision. Inside, I provide a clean, calm, and welcoming home while following each pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, exercise, medications (if needed), and any special instructions. I closely supervise pets and send regular photo and message updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.

“Dane took amazing care of our little Peanut and our house! He went above and beyond taking many pictures and giving us updates. He took Peanut on long walks and did training sessions with her — it was very clear she was having a blast. Dane also generously watered our plants and left our house cleaner than he found it! Would highly recommend Dane to anyone looking for a sitter and we look forward to booking with him again :)”

“Audery was excellent with my somewhat challenging dog and 2 cats! I would definitely rebook with her!”

Samuel F.

“I couldn’t have asked for a better cat sitter than Natasha! She spent the week with my cat while I was on vacation, and sent me updates throughout the week which was reassuring. She even cleaned up before leaving, which was wonderful! I highly recommend Natasha :)”

Sonja J.

“Christine was wonderful and kept me informed with everything that was going on at my house. When I got home, the dogs were calm, which to me is a good sign of a caring sitter.”

Thomas C.

“A HUGE Thank You to Eleanna! She was incredibly flexible with our schedules, took great care with our Xiao Xiao, very communicative and just an overall sweetheart which made our time even better. We felt at ease and that’s so important. Absolutely booking her again!”

Kiki P.

“Beatryx stayed with our 5 year old Cooper over the holidays, and took fantastic care of him. They regularly sent adorable photos and updates, and were great with Cooper across his range of energy levels (play and fun when high and cuddly time when low!). They were an excellent communicator and have strong experience and expertise with animals. Thanks Beatryx!”

Liz M.

“Ariena took fantastic care of our elderly lab for about a week, she was a wonderful house guest and most importantly made our pup feel like a million bucks! Ariena gave frequent updates and it was clear she really enjoyed spending time with our dog which felt so comforting. At the last minute our dog needed some complicated medication administered, ariena took care of that no problem. Ariena also has a great personality and is funny and kind. Highly recommend!!!”

About: I have experience caring for cats while their owners are away, including feeding, refreshing water, cleaning litter boxes, brushing, playing, and providing companionship. I have also cared for cats with special care needs by following the owner’s instructions to give medication with food and closely monitoring their eating and well-being. I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe and comfortable, and I treat every pet with patience, kindness, and attention. I have a flexible schedule and can provide reliable pet care throughout the week. I enjoy spending time with animals and will make sure your pet receives the attention, care, and companionship they need while you’re away. I’ll always communicate with you and provide updates so you know your pet is safe and doing well. I respect every client’s home and carefully follow all care instructions to keep pets comfortable and maintain their normal routine. Whether it’s feeding, fresh water, playtime, cleaning the litter box, administering medication with food according to the owner’s instructions, or simply providing companionship, I treat every pet with patience, kindness, and attention.

About: I've had dogs and cats my whole life, and I know every pet has their own personality, routine, and little quirks. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, or simply having someone nearby to keep them company, I'll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you're away. My rescue dog, Princess, taught me so much about caring for pets with special needs. She had severe allergies that required years of oral and topical medications, and later she was diagnosed with lymphoma. Caring for her through every stage of her life taught me patience, consistency, and how important it is to adapt to each pet's individual needs. I'm happy to follow detailed care instructions, including medications, special diets, and routines. I've also house sat for family with large, high-energy dogs, and I genuinely enjoy spending quality time with pets—not just watching them. I like keeping pets engaged with play, enrichment, little training sessions with treats (if you approve), and long neighborhood walks. I let pets warm up to me at their own pace, and I always respect the routine you've already built with them. When I'm house sitting, your pet won't just have someone checking in on them—they'll have a companion. I spend much of my time studying online, so I enjoy keeping pets company, giving them plenty of attention, and sending regular photo updates so you always know how they're doing. I know how hard it can be to leave your pet behind, so I hope I can make that a little easier by treating them with the same care and attention I'd want for my own. I'd love the opportunity to meet you and your furry friend! I’m currently taking classes remotely, so my schedule is flexible and I'm able to accommodate walks, playtime, and companionship around your pet’s routine. I’m available on both weekdays and weekends and am happy to work with your schedule to ensure your pet receives consistent, attentive care. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priority. I'm able to provide consistent supervision, companionship, and care. I can let pets out for potty breaks, keep them company while I study, and make sure they feel calm and secure in their environment. I’m happy to accommodate previously discussed medical needs and carefully follow all feeding, medication, and care instructions for your pet. Additionally, I'll make time between classes for walks and play sessions to keep your pet happy and engaged. Communication is very important to me — I'll send photo updates so you can feel connected with your pet while you’re away. In the event of an emergency, I will follow your instructions closely and take prompt, responsible action to ensure your pet’s safety.

“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.

“Tori was absolutely wonderful. Our dog is very skittish and does not warm up to people easily, but within minutes of meeting Tori, she was affectionate and clearly comfortable. Tori was incredibly responsive, responsible, proactive, attentive, and respectful throughout the entire stay. She kept us updated, took amazing care of our dog, and treated our home with real care. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing both our dog and house were in such capable hands. We cannot recommend Tori highly enough and are already planning to book her again to stay at our house when we travel later this summer.”

Deepak K.

“Ashley is wonderful! She is calm and relaxed, which helped Charlie be relaxed. She gave her walks, playtime and sent me pictures. I will definitely call her next time ❤️!”
