House Sitting in Santa Teresa, San Jose

“Over and above. She took great care of pets and they love her. Great communication and fun pics of animals. Already booked her for my next trip. It is so nice to be able to relax and know animals are well taken care of.”

“Jeanne is the best! She goes above and beyond to take excellent care of our dog and our house while we are away. She sends us updates, photos and videos and our dog loves her.”

“Our pups were so happy under Deborah’s care. They were spoiled by the walks and all the love. Deborah is a kind and caring person and it showed with how our dogs (and kids!) responded to her. She was super communicative and sent pics and updates. She gifted us with flowers as well and it was such a treat. We highly recommend Deborah!”

“This was our first time using Rover and we were very happy with Patricia. She took good care of our two dogs, sent pictures and was great at communicating with us. I would recommend Patricia and will use her again!”

“Arthur is responsible and even has a dog of his own. He has a very good intuition with pets and loves taking care of others just as much as his own.”

“Sierra house sat for us taking care of our cat and large, challenging dog. She was very patient as she went through the process of allowing our dog, who is very protective, to get to know her so that we felt comfortable leaving for a few days. Sierra stayed in touch with us providing updates on our animals. We returned to find all was well! Very grateful to have found Sierra. She got our 5 star rating!”

“Joseph was so great! Quick at responding and a really nice person. My two dogs loved him. Definitely will ask him again!!! He is really easy to get along with.”

“Marcella has taken care of our dogs a few times. She cares about the dogs and does a thorough job of taking care of them. We appreciate the updates she gives us while we are away. We are thankful for Marcella because while we are away we are at ease knowing she is taking care of our dogs.”

“Cristal was fantastic. We were gone almost two weeks and she gave us peace of mind with daily pictures and text messages. She always let us know if she was going to be gone. The house was spotless when we returned and she even made us a lasagna! We would absolutely ask her to watch Maeve again.”

“Clarisbel was so sweet and caring. She truly cares for your pet. Sushi was delighted to see her when they first met. I would definitely rebook with her again and recommend her! 👍🥰”

“Julie is absolutely amazing! She’s been such a breath of fresh air with my Cody. He’s an elderly blue heeled who doesn’t take a liking to many people in his older years. His vision is going as well as hod hearing and requires a lot of attention so potty accidents don’t happen in the home. After I spent a little over a half an hour with Julie and my Cody showing him she’s a friend he warmed up to her like they were long lost friends. She was so kind and patient with him and he never once had a potty accident under her care! She was also a wealth of knowledge giving me advice on what to ask his vet things to keep an eye out for, for his breed and age. She even helped me with his diet! As well as being warm and personal Julie has truly taken a weight off my shoulders with the time she helps with my Cody.”

“Becky was fantastic! She house sat for us last minute and took great care of our husky while we went camping for a week. She gave us frequent photo updates and let us know if she had questions about anything. She even washed her sheets before she left! We would definitely ask her to watch the dog and house for us again.”

“Tasha was an excellent sitter and took great care of our pets (a big dog and a cat). It was a logistically challenging process due to COVID (had to do socially distanced meet and greet, etc.) and the fires, but she did a great job monitoring the air quality and making sure the pets got good outside time when the air was good for it and stayed inside when it wasn't. She was also consistently good about communicating with us, sending pictures and keeping us posted on how everything was going. Tasha did a terrific job and we'll definitely book her again, and highly recommend you do the same.”

About: I’ve had pets since I was a young teenager. Sadly having no dogs of my own as of last October, I live directly across a dog park and want to share the joy with your littlest family members. You can count on me to pay close attention to diet and potty schedules. I will shower your pet with attention and affection. I work from home with a short break in the day to run errands. I like to bring pets for the ride or simply stay home with my mother. Your pets needs will be covered! I have a fenced yard to catch some sun and a dog park directly across the street. I am also available to come to your pets home and shower with the same attention.

“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".”

“Lissa came through for me on late notice, and not only that, but she followed directions perfectly on how to care for my puppy who just had surgery. Misia looked happy and calm as can be after an evening of house sitting, and that makes me happy. I plan on using Lissa again in the future.”

“Liz was timely and professional; no issues with her stay ... I appreciated the last-minute booking acceptance on her end. My dog liked her as well.”

About: I've always loved cats and dogs, and in addition to growing up with them, they've been much-loved family members for the 30 years I've lived in south San Jose. My family has dropped their dogs off at my house for Doggy Overnight Camp for years, and I've taken care of friends' cats when they're out of town for years. I look forward to starting my fourth kitten fostering season with the Silicon Valley Humane Society. I'm semi-retired and work part-time from home, so I have ample free time to spend with your furry kids—checking in, feeding, playing, walking—whatever works best for them. I'm happy to work closely with you to determine what activities will help your pets feel loved and cared for, and you to feel secure that they're safe and happy, while you're away.

“Camila is a loving, active and responsible girl. She is a punctual girl and my dogs are very happy every time she comes, they adore her.”
