Cat Sitting Twin Creeks

About: I have lived with animals (mostly dogs and one cat) my entire life. I started off with taking care of my own dogs and then volunteered at shelters throughout high school and undergraduate school. I have house sat and animal sat for friends and family off and on since 2022. I've watched over a range of animal personalities from very excitable and energetic to reactive and anxious. I also find it very important to maintain grooming, hygiene, and activity/mental stimulation for your pets. I do not have experience with dog training, however, I have successfully trained my own dogs with basic commands. I moved out to the Bay Area 2 years ago to be a full-time PhD student at Palo Alto University. While I do have work and school, I am remote most days in the week (Thursday through Monday), so I can dedicate the time and care your pet needs :) I appreciate having an average schedule including times they go outside, walks, feeding, and hygiene so I can help your pet have as smooth of a transition as possible. I tend to follow your pet's cues and slowly build the trust between us. I love giving them affection while maintaining the training and expectations you have. I like to take pictures and/or videos for you so you can get your daily dose of your pet!

“Quynh did an amazing job taking care of our dogs during her drop-in visits. She was reliable, attentive, and clearly cared about making sure they were happy and comfortable. Communication was great, and it gave us so much peace of mind knowing our dogs were in such good hands. We would absolutely book with Quynh again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter! 🐾”

“Johnathan was great with our cats and made us feel at ease while we were away. He sent regular updates with lots of cute photos, and it was clear they were well cared for. You could tell he genuinely cared about their well-being. We also had an unexpected issue with ants, and he went above and beyond to help take care of it for us, which we really appreciated. We came home to happy cats and everything just as we left it. We would definitely book with Johnathan again and highly recommend him!”

About: I have been taking care of dogs since I was about 10 years old and have always loved being around animals. I have experience walking, feeding, playing with, and giving medication to dogs, including helping care for my neighbors’ dogs as well. I also have two cats, so I’m comfortable around both dogs and cats. I’m willing to help in any way I can and can’t wait to meet your pet! I just graduated from college and moved back home so I am able to help whenever you need. I am also very flexible and can work around your schedule! I always make sure pets are in a safe, clean, and comfortable environment where they feel cared for and relaxed. In a client’s home, I follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, crate routines, and any specific needs or preferences the pet may have. I also make sure pets get plenty of attention, playtime, and companionship while their owners are away.

“We were leaving abroad for about two months. I’m very grateful to have found Weichen on Rover to take care of my cat. Weichen was very easy to communicate with and always thoughtful and considerate throughout the entire time. I really appreciated the care and attention given to my cat, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away. I’m very grateful for the help and would absolutely trust Weichen to take care of my cat again in the future. I highly recommend Weichen to anyone looking for a dependable and caring pet sitter on Rover.”

“Laura did an amazing job taking care of my Roxie! She was able to come through last minute when a different sitter fell through at the last moment before I had to leave town. She always informed me when arriving and if there were any issues. I would highly recommend her especially if you have a senior dog. She took extra good care of her!!”

About: I have been pet and house sitting for 18+ years and work from home 3 days a week. I have a car and am pretty flexible Since I work from home 3 days a week with flexibility and often can do long weekends(Friday-Mondays). 2 days/week I work in San Francisco. I don’t mind dogs in my car or administering meds. Very familiar with cleaning litter boxes etc. I have a fenced yard and animals are okay to get on bed and couches. No smoking. Only 2 steps getting in/out of house. I have experience with post surgical care of my own pets.

About: To this day I am and always will be an animal lover, they have a special place in my heart and I am excited to share that love to your precious furry friends! I am 20 years old and have been dedicated to specializing my work with animals from training to sitting for them, I am here for it! My family and I have had a few dogs through my life and I have trained every single one, even from the age of five. I am devoted to cherishing and ensuring animals wellbeing’s, your pets are in safe hands! :) Pet care is something I establish in everyday life due to the nature of their needs. I aim to take them on walks 2 times a day at least and making sure they are taken to go potty frequently. My yard is entirely fenced in and crating is no problem at all if necessary! I have two dogs at home and a cat! One dog is a cattle dog/ German shepherd mix and the other is a frenchie. Trust is a priority so I try to be as transparent as possible. If preferred I am more than happy to stay at the house or can just pop in to check in and hang out with them as well!

“Elaine helped us tremendously over a couple of days when we weren’t around so much to take care of our pup. Clear communication, arrived and left on time as planned. Very reliable. Thank you so much Elaine!”

About: My experience working with children with special needs has helped me develop strong caregiving skills. I bring the same responsibility and attention to detail to pet sitting. Your pets will be well cared for while you're away, ensuring their safety and happiness. On Tuesdays and Fridays, I'm available before 3pm and after 7pm. On Wednesdays I'm available after 12:30pm. I'm available at any time on all other days of the week. I ensure pets are safe, comfortable, and engaged. I follow their routines and provide playtime, regular feeding, bathroom breaks as needed, and lots of affection.

About: I’ve had several dogs over the years including puppies whom I’ve trained from scratch, as well as temperamental seniors. I love them all and they usually like me too. ☺️ To get $20 off your first booking, use this link: https://www.rover.com/sit/sonalv50918 I work part-time from home so I’m able to dedicate a lot of time and attention to your pet. Walking them is one of my favorite forms of entertainment and exercise. I have a 5 ft high fenced backyard and the Sierra Azul trail entrance is just a 5 minute walk from my house so there is plenty of walking terrain for your doggies. While at my house, your cutie pies will be allowed on the sofa and bed unless you say otherwise. I’m also able to drive out to your place and spend some cuddle time with your fur babies. Just let me know what their needs are, I’m adaptable.

About: For the past 15 years, I have worked as a pet sitter for dogs of all ages and sizes, cats of all ages, and other animals such as snakes, hamsters, and fish. I always ensure to walk, feed, play, cuddle, administer medications, and complete any other tasks to ensure the health and comfort of all the animals under my care. I grew up with dogs and cats and absolutely love having animals around, and pet sitting provides me with a much needed animal fix! I’ll be back in San Jose, CA for the months of July and August, and will only be out of the house to go to workout classes and to teach private swim lessons for 4-5 hours a day (usually with breaks in between). I love hanging out with animals and can easily incorporate them into my routine! I love having an animal around to keep me company and find them so grounding and healing. I grew up with having animals around me, and since I don’t have a furry friend currently pet sitting allows me to get my much needed animal touch. I also usually go on walks daily and would love to have a furry companion come along with me. I always ensure to note all of the guidelines set forth by clients so that everyone (including pets) are safe and happy. I do this by ensuring I provide a warm and welcoming presence and allow pets to come to me when they feel comfortable and secure.

About: Hello, I'm Delaney! I've watched every kind of dog you can think of, from the big bulldozing lap dogs to the fierce little chihuahua. I've been in love with working with animals ever since I can remember; I've always had a deep passion for them. I'm so excited for this opportunity to have access to the best digs and cater to their needs. Hopefully, we can end dog boredom together! I’m currently working part time, with flexible hours that allow me to stay home when needed. I’m able to provide one on one care for all clients I live in a large home with a fenced-in yard. It's just me here, and I'm able to provide one-on-one attention for all clients.

About: I have had a passion for animals for as long as I can remember, including behavior and training. I believe that every dog is a good dog. I began my career in animal care at an exotic pet shop in my teens. Between retail gigs, I had the privilege of working at a rescue shelter and a zoo, where my passions for animal conservation and welfare continued to grow. After that I spent some time in the veterinary field, where I gained valuable experience as a veterinary assistant. It was working in the veterinary field where I really got to pursue my passion for working gently with anxious and "aggressive" animals. Due to some physical limitations, I am not able to work full-time anymore, so I am now taking time to focus on what I really love to do, which is making pet and owner's lives easier. In my free time, I love to crochet, play video and borad games, and go on hikes with my partner. I am currently available full time to walk, sit, or drop-in on your pet! I can make most days and times work. Let me know what you need. I am not able to host for pet-sitting currently, per my lease at my current living arrangement, but I am available to stay in the pet owner's home if requested.

About: I have been a veterinary technician since 2015. I always knew working with animals was my passion. Prior to being a vet tech, I was a dog trainer at Petco for 1.5 years. My expertise and knowledge in this industry is of no doubt. I currently work in an animal clinic close to home which is so convenient. I’m an active young mother so I enjoy outside time as well and love going on walks. I’m capable to administer subcutaneous fluids and medications of any sort if needed. My husband works from home so someone will be home all day with your fur baby! We go on 2 long walks daily along with 2 extra bathroom breaks in between. PREFERRED DROP OFF/ PICK UP TIMES : Monday - Friday before 7:20 AM OR after 6 PM. Saturdays & Sundays are completely open. This is just so we can meet each time. If needed outside those time frames my husband will the one to receive your furbaby ♥️ I currently do not have pets of my own, but I treat them all as if they were. The love, care, and attentiveness I carry within myself will show through your pet’s happiness and well being.

About: I’ve raised five dogs of my own from puppyhood; as well as watched the dogs of my friends and family since I was young. I’ve had everything from mixed breeds, to French bulldogs, pugs, and even a pit bull! I have experience with oral medication administration and elderly dog care. My current dog was in my care before he could be weened, so I know plenty about little puppies! I believe in keeping my dogs as active as their health permits, so walks are a crucial part of the day for me. (If they can, of course. I’ve also had a senior dog with arthritis I’ve accommodated.) I have a knowledge of dog psychology and feel that it’s important to recognize dog behavior correctly. I’m currently working part time with a flexible schedule. As long as I know ahead of time, I’m most likely able to accommodate your pet. I always care for your pet as requested. Whether or not your pup is crate trained doesn’t matter, I’ve cared for both. If your dog needs medication, walks at certain times, a health specific diet, has allergies, can’t be around certain animals/noises/environments- I will go out of my way to make sure your pets needs are met. I will always treat your pet as my own.

“This was our first visit by Shaden and she was wonderful. Took very good care of our 4 slightly high maintenance cats. We will be sure to have her back at another time. Thank you!”

“Venkata did a great job caring for my partly feral cat for a week while I was on vacation. She was very communicative and I can tell she really cares about animals. I hope to be able to book her again :)”
