Pet Sitting Southgate

About: I have lots of experience looking after family, friend, and neighborhood cats, dogs, and fish throughout high school and college! Clean, tidy, responsible, and caring. I’m currently working a part-time, remote job, so my availability is very flexible! Happy to meet your and your pets’ needs. Weekday and weekend availability. Unfortunately my apartment doesn’t allow pets :( However, I am more than happy to look after your loved ones at your own residence where they’re most comfortable!

“Cameron was very responsive and comfortable with handling my 65 pound dog. My dog also warmed up to him much quicker than he would with the average stranger/sitter. Thank you Cameron for a wonderful session.”

About: I love dogs of all breeds and sizes! I had a yellow lab growing up and have rescued 3x dogs since. I will be in the area for a few years of grad school and would love to care for your dogs! Same day bookings accepted! I’m flexible on timing and only have a class schedule to contend with, so I am typically free most mornings and evenings. I am comfortable around all types of dogs. I can run with or extensively play with your high energy dog, if requested! For the more senior, sleepy, and smaller dogs, I give great pets!

“Very nice and respectful. Handled our kitty with love and kept us updated with all the info we needed to have peace of mind while we were out!”

“Had to ask Rachel last minute to look after my cat after a 7 hour flight delay. She responded quickly and was able to drop by immediately to take care of my cat! Great response time and glad I could rely on her in a pinch.”

About: I grew up surrounded by dogs thanks to my dad, who is a veterinarian and ran his own animal hospital in Europe. From a young age I loved helping out at the clinic, learning how to care for animals and building a natural connection with dogs of all kinds. I am now moving to Stanford to study a master’s in medicine, and I really miss having dogs around. Spending time with them has always been something that makes me happy, so I would love to take care of your dog and give them the same love and attention I would give my own 🐶 I am friendly, responsible, and attentive to each dog’s needs. También hablo español! My schedule can vary day to day, but I do my best to stay flexible. Feel free to check my calendar and send me a message to confirm availability. I will be based in Stanford starting mid-September! When I care for your pet in your home, my priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well looked after in their own environment. I follow their usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, and any specific instructions you provide. I make sure they always have fresh water, plenty of exercise, and time for play and companionship, not just quick visits. If your dog needs medication or any special care, I’m attentive and careful to follow directions closely. I also keep their space clean and make sure they’re relaxed and settled while you’re away. I love keeping you updated, I’ll send photos, videos, and even little collages of our walks so you can see where we’ve been and how many miles we covered. Looking forward to meeting your dog 🐶

“Megan took excellent care of my two cats! Great communication, reports with lots of pics, and I came home to healthy, happy cats. A+++, I would rebook any time.”

“MJ is an incredible dog sitter!! It's so clear that she loves dogs and it's mutual -- my dog loves her!! Her communication is incredible, she really helps engage my pup and help her learn, and she's so intuitive. I'm so grateful I found her!!”

Brynna L.

“Outstanding support and help with our 9-1/2 year old lab while we were out of town. Very attentive, gracious and caring in looking after our dog. Will absolutely use again if she is willing to watch Moose again.”

“Sjofn was soooooo happy to get so many belly rubs she was thrilled and didn’t want them to leave. I highly recommend Guilherme and his wife. Sjofn would be thrilled to get more belly rubs and I would be happy to have them watch her again :)”

“Our dog does not like everyone but he immediately bonded with Shalese. She is patient, responsible and best yet, loves my animals like they are family. We are happy to find her and happy to work with her again. Definitely recommend!”

About: I cared for my dog for 14 wonderful years back in Seoul, and he taught me how meaningful patient, loving pet care can be. After moving to the U.S., I began caring for dogs again because I missed that connection so much. Friends and family have trusted me over the years with dogs of all breeds and temperaments. I’ve since adopted a rescue dog in New York who I love dearly—and who really enjoys the company of other dogs and cats. I work from home and I have a flexible schedule. My husband is a graduate student at Stanford. We both have a regular daily routine, and we love walking and hiking with our dog. I like to keep my clients updated with multiple daily pictures/videos. If anything comes up, I will alert immediately and in emergency situations I will take the pets to the designated vet if we discuss to do so prior to boarding/sitting.

About: I grew up with the sweetest Shih Tzu in the world named Dak (a small computer chip). And I think my style of pet care came from taking care of him. I was attentive and gave him lots of love. He loved driving in the car with me, actually :) I have been pet sitting for friends and on other platforms for over 5 years in their homes. And I took care of a neighbor's bird way back in high school. For the most part I have specialized in cats and small to medium dogs. I also have a calm spirit that many animals are drawn to. So we can chill together for a long time. In addition, I'm responsible and respectful, caring and considerate not only for pets but also for owner's homes. I am able to communicate well and clearly and can problem solve to resolve any situation which might arise. In short, I have the know-how to be able to feed, entertain, clean up after, and love cats and dogs and their living spaces. And I can communicate well to their parents to keep them safe and happy while mom and dads are away. I currently work part-time teaching English online. I also am writing my doctoral dissertation. This means I am home a lot and very happy to spend lots of time with pets, even at my desk with me or curled up on the sofa. I strictly watch pets in their own homes. Firstly, because I am missionary and I've been staying temporarily in my parents house in North Carolina and now here with my brother in Palo Alto. Secondly, because I think pets are much happier if they can stay in their own homes and in familiar surroundings.
