Dog Sitting in Santa Clara

About: Hi! I’ve been helping care for pets for friends and family for the past 3 years and have become one of their main go-to sitters. I have experience with overnight stays, drop-in visits, feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and administering medications (including shots) when needed. I understand that every pet has different needs and personalities, and I always work to make them feel safe and show them all the love, so they are comfortable and cared for while their owners are away. I currently work full-time from 8 AM–5 PM with an hour lunch break from 12–1, which gives me flexibility for midday check-ins if needed. I’m also an early riser and have plenty of time in the mornings and evenings to give pets attention, exercise, feeding, medications, and companionship. I have weekends completely free, allowing for extra time and flexibility for overnight stays or pets needing more consistent care and attention. I know pets are family, and I treat every animal with patience, kindness, and care. I currently have 2 cats of my own and grew up around dogs and several other animals, which has helped me become very comfortable reading different pet personalities and behaviors. I pay close attention to routines, moods, and body language so I can quickly notice if something seems out of the ordinary. My goal is always to create a safe, calm, and loving environment where pets feel comfortable, secure, and well cared for while you’re away.

About: I have taken care of dogs for five years now. Friends and family have relied on me to walk and feed their dogs. Some call me the dog whisperer. My wife and I work from home and love taking g pups on walks! Your dog will be well cared for and given the intentional attention it deserves. I am very careful when it comes to leashing a pet and making sure they feel safe in each environment we encounter. Playtime and energy expenditure are key!

“Could not have asked for better care for my 2 cats. Very communicative, took actual notes during the meet and greet, totally conscientious and thoughtful. Left such detailed notes for each visit and numerous pictures that made me feel perfectly at ease being away. Could not recommend any higher, sincerely.”

About: I’ve had my own dog for 5 years and have loved taking care of anybody’s dogs at any point I can! I have loved dogs since I knew how to walk and love meeting all different kinds of puppies! I’m currently working two part time jobs but I’m in college away from home in need of some extra cash! I will try and make whatever schedule work! I live in a student living apartment building for the next few months so I will only be able to take care of pets at your home unfortunately :(

About: I have over 20 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs. My responsibilities have included feeding, walking, administering medication, cleanup and companionship. I love dogs! I'm currently working from home and create my calendar, so I'll have plenty of time to play with your pups. We'll have oodles of fun! I ensure all instructions are followed including feeding schedules, medication, and exercise needs. Pets will have adequate water and all messes will be cleaned up promptly.

“Matthew takes great care of our kitties. He feeds and cleans according to our instructions and they are always happy and not stressed when we get home which tells us they were well taken care of.”

About: I have cared for dogs of all sizes and personalities for over 8 years. Friends, family and neighbors, plus others have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and care for their pets while they were away. I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I treat every animal like family. I'm patient, dependable, and passionate about creating a positive experience for both pets and owners I am home most of the time and have a flexible schedule, so pets get lots of attention and care. On weekdays when I work dogs are safely kenneled for a short time until I return home. Weekends are usually completely open for play time, cuddles and supervision. I always prioritize safety, comfort, and routine while pets are in my care. Dogs can be kenneled safely if needed and when Im home they'll receive plenty of attention, playtime, love, and supervision in a calm, caring environment.

About: Throughout highschool I dog sat for a family who was out of town a lot. I cared for 3 dogs, one of whom was older! I have a lot of experience in caring for dogs, from respecting their boundaries to specific dietary needs. I also own a dog and raised her from a puppy; she would love some furry friends 🐶. (Also I’m not JUST here for the cute dogs). I will be beginning my journey into getting my masters degree, so I will have a lot of free time to care for your lovely pets. I will have a part time job but I will work around those days of work:) In my clients home I make sure to try and keep the pets in a similar routine to what they are used to. I think this is important for the pet to be as comfortable as possible. I also make it a priority to play with them and take them outside (if this is something they like). This keeps them stimulated, and if they are anything like my Aussie dog, less anxious.

About: I've taken care of dogs for a few years now. From pet sitting to my family dog (blue heeler mix) I've grown quite used to energetic breeds, but I love all my furry friends! I'd love to help you out! I'm currently working part-time as a CNA while also being a full-time student. I'm looking for weekend visits or pet sitting on the weekends. I love to play with any kind of energy level whether rough and energetic, or mellow and sweet. Regardless of energy level, I love animals and would love to help take care of your pet!

About: What sets me apart is the genuine love and understanding I’ve developed for dogs through years of hands-on experience. I’ve been caring for dogs since 8th grade, starting with my first Shih Tzu and later raising a Cockapoo, then opening my heart to two wonderful rescue dogs—a Foxhound/Cattle Dog mix and a Border Collie/Cattle Dog mix. Caring for dogs of different sizes, energy levels, and personalities has taught me patience, attentiveness, and how to make each dog feel safe, loved, and understood, whether they need gentle senior care, playful engagement, or consistent routines. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine and something I genuinely look forward to. Each morning starts with a walk, followed by breakfast and some playtime like fetch to help burn energy and start the day happy. Later in the day, I take them out for another walk around the park for exercise and their second potty break, and we finish the evening with one last walk before bedtime. Nights always end with extra attention—belly rubs and goodnight kisses. I care for pets in my home by providing consistent routines, plenty of exercise, and attentive, gentle care. Each day includes regular walks, scheduled meals, and playtime to keep pets active and comfortable. I make sure they get multiple potty breaks throughout the day, along with quiet time in the evening so they can relax and settle in. I also pay close attention to each pet’s individual needs and make sure they feel safe, cared for, and at home while they’re with me.

About: -Grew up on a farm with a wide range of animals -My pups are my children and treated like royalty. Their homemade dinners are more healthy than what my fiance and I make for ourselves! -My uncle is a vet so I've got a vet on stand by for any small to large questions and needs that may arise. I work at a teen homeless shelter so my shifts paired with my fiance's job shifts make house sitting at my house not feasible. I am able to do drop in services along with walk. I value safety above all else. Your best friend will be taken care of as if they are my own. Good communication will be maintained so you are kept in the loop and not having to worry.

About: I’ve had dogs since I was born and was helping my parents take care of them. Like playing with them, taking them for walks, feeding them. I’ve also watched friends dogs while they were out of town. Some of them required medication and extra care. I will be available the whole time. I am not working over the summer because I have some preset plans that can’t be canceled and then I move back to Cedar City for school. I’m a flexible pet sitter who comes to you! I’m happy to care for pets in homes with or without yards and will adjust to whatever routine or level of care your pet needs to stay happy and stress-free.

“Sasha, My German shepherd, was taken care of so well by Riley! We were able to enjoy our time out of town because we knew she was in good hands with Riley!!”

“Cindy did an excellent job! She has watched our dog before and I love her service! She sends lots of videos and pictures. Her communication is wonderful! She even added another visit when our schedule changed! We have booked with her before and will definitely book with her again!”
