About: I volunteered with the Humane Society of Silicon Valley to help socialize rescue dogs and cats of all levels of shyness. My own dog was a rescue who needed a lot of time and care to open up to people. I have also dog sat for multiple dogs at a time! I have very open availability! I am a university student on break so I have no other obligations. I can stay overnight as well to keep your pet company. I'm used to cleaning up messes if your pet gets sick, and am able to let your pet out to pee/clean their litter box at any time! I also have experience giving medicine to dogs.

About: With over 30 years of pet experience, I’ll make fast friends with your little ones! I’ve had 15 of my own over the years, both cats and dogs. In addition, I’ve often been called on as sitter and caretaker for friends and family, both in their homes and my own. While I work full-time, I work remotely and my schedule is fairly flexible, which gives me ability to travel, run errands, attend to life, and take care of things as needed. My ability to work from anywhere means that I’m often taking meetings and writing emails in different locations day to day…and there have been many instances where I’ve been pet-sitting or housesitting and working remotely from there. My first priority is of course always the safety and happiness of your family members and companions, but a close second is the care and cleanliness of your space and your home! I learned early in my life to always leave a space cleaner than you found it, and cleanliness, your preferences, handling things your way, and privacy are always in the front of my mind!

“This is our second time using Becky, and the first for her to stay in our house. She was wonderful with Henna, super respectful of our house. She left everything super clean and put away. She is great at communicating and sending updates. I never had concerns about the dog or our house. We will definitely use Becky again!”

“Rose is the absolute best! Our animals are challenging but she took the greatest care of them. And she left our house in perfect condition with the plants watered and happy. Thank you Rose!”


About: I’ve been taking care of dogs for many years and have extensive experience. I provide assistance with walking, feeding, bathing, playing, and administering medication. I also have experience in pet training, including potty training, socialization, and leash training.** **As an active cyclist and daily walker, I ensure pets get plenty of exercise and mental stimulation. My home has a secure fenced yard for safe outdoor play, and I’m happy to accommodate crating if requested. If your pet enjoys outings, I’d love to take them on adventures!** **Above all, I prioritize following your rules and preferences to keep your pet comfortable and happy." On a typical day, I build their care seamlessly into my schedule, prioritizing their exercise and mental stimulation while also respecting their rest and downtime. I’m flexible and attentive, adjusting my routine based on each pet’s unique needs, energy levels, and preferences. In My Home: I treat every pet like family. I create a safe, calm, and comfortable environment where your pet can feel relaxed and secure. I stick closely to their usual routine, including feeding times, walk schedules, and sleep preferences. Whether your pet loves playtime, cuddles, or quiet space, I adapt to their personality and needs. I keep my space clean, pet-proofed, and supervised, with plenty of love and attention throughout the day. In Your Home: When caring for pets in their own environment, I focus on maintaining their normal routine and respecting your space. I make sure they are well-fed, exercised, and given plenty of attention—just like you would! I also take care of any requested household tasks, like bringing in the mail, watering plants, or keeping the home tidy. I communicate regularly with updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet are in good hands.

“Stephanie watched our three dogs and cat for a long weekend and did a wonderful job! Everyone was happy and healthy upon return. She was very respectful of our house and kept everything very clean. Stephanie followed my many instructions perfectly! I really appreciate her responsiveness and all the photos she sent throughout the weekend! Will definitely book again. Thank you, Stephanie!”


“Aytaj was very responsive and provided updates while caring for our cat. I felt that it was really easy to get in touch with her, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. It was also great that she was able to meet up quickly before we booked her, making the process smooth and fast. I appreciated knowing how things were going and I didn't feel worried at all when she was here. Thank you, Aytaj!”


About: My entire life, I have never lived without a dog. I've had 2 huskies, 2 labs, and a malti-poo. I love walking dogs because since leaving for college I don't have the capabilities to own a dog on my own and I miss my dogs back home! I'm currently working full time but love to stay active and be around dogs as much as I can. I work late hours so if your dog is okay being alone from 9pm-1am I can take boardings and overnight stays, but otherwise, I am happy to walk your dog(s) or take them to parks, or on hikes!! I am happy taking multiple dogs at once as well! I do not have any pets of my own except a couple of fish at the moment, I have a fenced in yard and am happy to accept crates for overnight stays if requested. I am happy doing drop ins for pets who are alone for a while, going for walks/hikes around client's homes or mine. Pretty flexible with hours, days, and times!

About: The best thing coming home to are my 3 babies. Dany(Yorkie), beezley(lab) and Mika(mix gs/husky). I love how they are all filled with excitement, wagging their tails as I was only gone for a minute. When I say the words “let’s go for a walk” that’s when they know the fun begins. The best available days are Monday through Friday from 9 am to 7 pm. I am also flexible with some availability on weekends if needed. Non-Smoking household, No children present, nearby dog parks, daily runs, nearby walking trails, I have 3 dogs, I live in California Grove. I do not have a yard.

About: I’ve always had a deep passion for rescuing and caring for animals. I’ve independently rescued and fostered 3 cats and a dog, and I'm also a dog mom to my fur baby, Peanut! Growing up with dogs my whole life taught me how to understand and care for pets of all ages and personalities. I’ve also pet-sat for friends’ dogs and cats, and I treat every pet like they’re my own… with love, patience, and attention to detail. Whether your pet needs belly rubs, playtime, working on potty training, learning new tricks or gentle senior care, I’m here to make them feel safe, happy, and loved. I am a new graduate registered nurse and currently working per diem so my schedule is based on clinic need and based on my personal availability. Therefore, I’m fairly flexible and I will build my schedule around making sure pets are safe, happy, and well cared for. Whether it’s daily walks, drop-in visits, or overnight stays, I’m committed to giving your pet the attention they need. In my home, I have a medium sized goldendoodle who loves to play and meet new friends! If your pet does not get along with other animals, I can come to you and do drop in visits, walks, etc. If there is a specific schedule to be followed, I will always make sure to follow that as close as possible and also give regular updates with photos and notes so you can feel at ease while you’re away. My goal is always to treat your pet like family and ensure they feel secure and happy until you’re back. I believe communication is key :-)


About: I’ve taken care of dogs since the age of 5, was able to get a chance to adopt my own dog after I got married. I’m in absolute awe of them each and every day I’m currently in between jobs so can take care of fur babies full time, I love to feed them and take them out on walks. Play with them I have an uber friendly and cute dog to keep your dog company. He has been the friendliest around kids and dogs in general. Super affectionate


“Kathy did a marvelous job of pet sitting my two dogs while I was on vacation. I felt assured that she would give my dogs plenty of TLC, and she certainly did. I received cute photos of them every day and I could tell by their wagging tails that all was good and they were happy. I would recommend her to anyone who wants a solid pet sitter who is very responsible and someone you can trust in your home to take care of your "fuzzy children".”
