Pet Sitting Stanford Estates

“We’ve been really happy with her! She takes such good care of my dog while I’m at work and always makes sure she gets plenty of time outside to play. I especially appreciate that she takes the time to work on some training and play games with her rather than just letting her out and watching the clock. It really feels like she makes the most of their time together. I also love getting the pictures and the little notes in the Rover Card each day about how my dog was doing and what they did together. Those updates mean a lot and are so reassuring when I’m away. She seems genuinely caring and attentive, and I feel really good knowing my dog is in her care! Would definitely recommend!!”

My dogs love her and she even goes above and beyond more than I have ever expected! Great communication about every drop in and scheduling changes! 10/10 recommendation Brooke for all your furbaby needs!”

“Jade was a great cat sitter! She did great with my cat who can be standoffish, and was very commutative and sent lots of photos. Also helped work with my leasing office to get access to the building when the call box broke.”

Chloe C.

“We couldn’t have been happier with Elizabeth! She was dependable, kind, and patient with our cat. It gave us great comfort as we traveled and we loved getting her pictures. She was very adept at giving our cat medication which is not easy! We would not hesitate to recommend her and would definitely use her services again.”

About: Caring for others has been a meaningful part of my life for as long as I can remember—both people and animals. I’ve cared for my own pets, dog-sat for family and friends, rescued lost pets and helped reunite them with their owners, and have always been drawn to animals who need a little extra care and patience. I currently have a nine-year-old Beagle/Toy Poodle mix named Millie and a cat named Josie, who is about six years old. I rescued Josie as a stray when she was sick and in need of care. I took her in, helped her get healthy, patiently earned her trust, and ultimately decided to make her part of my family. Her journey has given me firsthand experience with cats who may be fearful, shy, anxious, temperamental, or slow to trust, and taught me how important patience, understanding, and respecting an animal’s boundaries can be. I’m comfortable with animals of different sizes, personalities, energy levels, and temperaments. I pay close attention to animal body language and behavior and can recognize the signs that a dog or cat is comfortable, fearful, overstimulated, anxious, playful, or welcoming. I believe understanding those signals is one of the most important parts of caring for an animal because every pet communicates differently. My caregiving experience also extends to people. I’ve cared for infants, toddlers, and children, helped my mother with babysitting while growing up, and have provided care and companionship to elderly individuals. My professional caregiving background also includes working as an obstetric technician, caring for newborns, young children, and mothers following delivery, as well as caring for elderly patients, including those who needed comfort, companionship, and attentive support. These experiences have taught me to be patient, observant, dependable, gentle, and attentive to the needs of those in my care. Whether I’m caring for a person or an animal, I understand that they may not always be able to tell me exactly what they need. I’ve learned to pay attention, recognize changes in behavior, and respond with compassion. I understand that leaving your pet with someone else can be difficult. I take that trust seriously. I’m comfortable following your pet’s normal routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, companionship, and giving them the patience and space they need to feel comfortable. I also believe in keeping owners informed and communicating if I notice anything unusual about their pet. Most importantly, I don’t see pet sitting as simply “watching an animal.” I see it as caring for a member of someone’s family. My goal is for your pet to feel safe, comfortable, loved, and genuinely cared for while you’re away—and for you to have peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. My schedule is flexible because I do contract work, allowing me to focus on pet visits and walks. I’m happy to work with clients’ schedules and do my best to accommodate their routines, work hours, and pets’ individual needs. I prioritize safety, trust, and making every pet feel comfortable in my care. I have experience with dogs and cats of different sizes, personalities, and temperaments, including shy, anxious, fearful, energetic, and more independent animals. I pay close attention to body language and behavior so I can recognize when a pet is comfortable, overwhelmed, nervous, or needs space. Whether I’m caring for a pet in my home or visiting a client’s home, I will respect their routines, boundaries, environment, and individual needs. My goal is to provide calm, attentive, compassionate care while giving owners peace of mind that their pets are safe and well cared for.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs big and small since i was 16! Whether it be going on walks, bathing them or just watching them! I’ve always had a love for animals, caring for them brings me joy! I’m working a full time! This is something I like to do any time I can on the side! I’m willing to work with anyone if they will work with me with my crazy work schedule. I’ll make room for taking care of anyone’s furry babies! I have a fenced in yard with a puppy, I make sure there isn’t anything harmful on the floor or in reach, there’s plenty of space and toys!

“Kelsie is so great! This is our third booking with her and she always does such a great job. Definitely recommend booking with her if you can.”

About: I've been taking care of pets since I was younger. I have had cats, dogs and tarantulas, so I am used to a wide range of animals. I live alone and work a typical 9-5 job as an attorney in town, and I do not have any pets of my own. I always pet-sit for my friends' cats and dogs, so I would love to do it with Rover. I love to play games with the animals to keep them stimulated. I also enjoy walking animals and simply being with them. I am very good with both dogs and cats.

About: I have professional experience caring for dogs through Wag, PetSmart, and Petco. I worked with Wag for two years providing dog walking and pet care services similar to Rover, and I also worked as a professional bather at both PetSmart and Petco. In addition, I have experience training German Shepherds and Belgian Malinois in Schutzhund-style training, which gave me hands-on experience working with strong, intelligent, high-energy dogs. I’m comfortable following detailed feeding, exercise, training, and care routines, and I take safety and each dog’s individual temperament seriously. Whether your dog needs walks, playtime, structure, or simply a comfortable place to stay, I’ll treat them with the same attention and care I would expect for my own pet. I’m available throughout the week and can provide regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, feeding, and plenty of attention. I’m also happy to follow your dog’s normal routine as closely as possible so their stay feels familiar and comfortable. Your dog’s safety and comfort come first. I have a fenced yard for supervised outdoor time and experience handling dogs with a wide range of temperaments and energy levels. I follow feeding, medication, exercise, and crate instructions carefully, and I’m comfortable maintaining structure for dogs that thrive on a routine.

“My little guy has really bad anxiety 😥 So do I leaving him for a extended period of time Angela helped him so much. She went the extra mile to keep him calm. He looked so happy in the report cards. I definitely made the right choice hiring her. You could see he was very glad to see her every time she came to care for him and hang out with him. I will definitely hire her again for future trips.”

J D.

“Aspen was great with Nash. She was very communicative and thorough during her time with him. I will definitely be booking her again.”

About: I am an animal lover and have over 33 years of experience! I grew up having dogs and cats. I have had 3 of my own dogs and 2 cats, 4 of which were strays. I have trained all of my furry friends and even helped my Boston Terrier Mix have puppies. I have also cared for elderly pets and so I understand what it takes to give them the love and treatment they need in their more frail years. I currently have very flexible hours and can take care of your furry friend whenever you need me. I had a career in Nursing, but I am currently not practicing so I am free to help you out with your needs. I am very reliable and trustworthy. I have always had pets in my home, but take great pride in my home being well cared for and clean. I would ensure your home would be taken care of in the same way while looking after your pets. Whether it is my home or yours, or taking your pets for a walk, I will be respectful and ensure your pet and your home is well looked after.

“Mary was AMAZING! She was so attentive and loved on my dog and I felt so comfortable and at ease knowing she was taking care of him. I highly recommend her!”
