House Sitting in Verona

“Alex is everything we had hoped for & would be our first call back for the next trip. He not only took good care of our pet crew, they were all very relaxed and calm upon returning home & the pet action photos he sent us kept us connected. Our neighbors saw him out walking our dog several times, and he was fully committed to keeping Daario (dog) safe and well walked/sprinted. He took great care of our home, and picked up after himself like a pro. Great communication, easy to work with, and most of the pets warmed up to him on day 1 based on the photos.”

“Jenny is a fantastic sitter! She took excellent care of my dog, Akira. Akira is usually shy and takes time to warm up to new people, but she was immediately comfortable with Jenny. I will definitely be booking her again!”

“If we could leave 6/5 stars we would! Natalia is the best dog sitter we have had and for the first time we were able to go out of town and not have any worries or stress. She took such good care of our puppy, followed all of our directions perfectly, and sent the most amazing updates and photos while we were away. She went above and beyond to make sure our puppy was well cared for and loved! We are so glad we booked her and can’t wait for her to watch our Sully boy again!”

I'm familiar with handling biters & barkers, shedders, droolers, epileptic dogs, anxious and disabled dogs.

About: I’ve been caring for animals most of my life and truly understand how much pets mean to their families. As a dedicated dog mom to two small dogs, I know firsthand the importance of providing attentive, loving care. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or just keeping your pet company while you’re away, I treat every dog as if they’re my own. I have flexibility in my schedule as a remote worker and can provide a schedule that best suits your family and pets. I am free most majority of the holidays. I ensure that the environment is safe and comfortable for your pet. I will make sure that only appropriate toys are available for them and stick to your meal plan and times.

“Stephanie did a great job taking care of our senior dog and our home while we were away. She provided updates and photos throughout her stay. I highly recommend Stephanie to take care of your fur baby and home.”

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is the personal care and attention I give to each pet, as if they were my own. Having a furry friend at home, I understand the responsibility and emotional bond that comes with being a pet aunty. I bring that same level of care to every pet I work with. I’m reliable, communicative, and very detail-oriented—I make it a point to follow each pet’s routine closely, from feeding and walks to medications and special care instructions. My flexible weekend availability, with plans to expand during the week, means I can be there when pet parents need trusted, consistent care the most. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, happy, and loved while giving their families peace of mind. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine, especially because I have a furry friend at home. I understand firsthand the love, attention, and consistency that pets need to thrive. Although I currently work full-time, I’m available on weekends and will have more availability during the week in the near future. Right now, I work Sundays from 7am to 1:30pm, but I’m free the rest of the day, as well as all day Friday and Saturday. With this schedule, I’m able to dedicate quality time to caring for pets, whether that means walks, playtime, feeding, or simply keeping them company. Pet care is something I enjoy and prioritize. When caring for pets—whether in my home or a client’s—I focus on creating a safe, comfortable, and loving environment that mirrors the care and routine they’re used to. In My Home: I stick to their feeding and potty schedule as closely as possible. Pets get plenty of playtime, cuddles, and supervised outdoor breaks (if needed). I monitor behavior and health closely, giving updates and photos to the pet parent for peace of mind. In a Client’s Home: I respect their space and follow all instructions provided, including feeding, walking, medications, or any special care needs. I keep pets on their usual routine to help reduce stress while their family is away. I make sure they have fresh water, clean litter boxes (for cats), and plenty of attention and comfort. I also handle small extras like bringing in mail, watering plants, or adjusting lights and blinds, if requested.

“Rylie did a great job covering the house and looking after the dog. Jake seemed very comfortable and well taken care of. Rylie sent daily updates and pictures. She provides peace of mind when we had to go out of town. Thank you, Rylie!”

About: I’ve been pet sitting all animals since I was 12 years old. I work with puppies/kittens and senior dogs. I am a strong walker and feel confident with reactive and strong dogs. I have no official training but I work on basic commands with dogs and can work with whatever routine they need. I love both cats and dogs and have experience with animals that need extra care like medication. I work with about 5 families that I regularly pet and house sit for and I plan on doing walks for other houses during the day. However I am mostly at home with the pets and give them all the love and attention they deserve. Feel free to reach out with any questions or my experience. I take pride in putting families at peace of mind knowing I am taking such great care of their animals and home. I’m hoping to do more dog walking with Rover but currently am focused on pet sitting. I do have 5 other families I pet sit for off the app. and they do get priority. However, my schedule is very open at the moment. I take pet and house sitting very seriously. I care about the health and safety of animals, and I know how much families appreciate their home being cared for while they are gone. I am a very clean person and always make sure the house is as clean (if not more) as when you leave. There is this amazing feeling of relief to come home after being away, and seeing your happy animals and clean home. I take pride in providing that experience to all my clients. I also send a lot of pictures and videos of the animals to send to clients to assure everyone is happy and well cared for.

“Anne took wonderful care of our two year old doodle Zion for 5 days. She is a great communicator which put us at ease while we vacationed, sending texts and videos to us. She kept Zion busy on walks and playing games with him. We will use Anne in the future!”

“Erin did house sitting for our two dogs for three nights. Her care was wonderful. She gave the dogs nice walks and lots and lots of attention in the back yard. She sent beautiful photos daily. She brought in the mail daily and rolled up the bins on "garbage day." The dogs were very sorry to see her leave at the end of the house sitting!”

Jeff M.

“Alison did a great job watching my two dogs for a long weekend! She reached out with questions she had and sent us updates each day. She also put all of the dishes she used away and her towel in the laundry before she left which was nice. Thanks again, Alison!”

About: I'm super patient and have a understanding for what each pet needs. I've helped train puppies with basic commands and know how to make senior dogs comfy and happy. Plus, living in Pleasanton means I can offer lots of outdoor time in a safe neighborhood! I am currently working a part time job that is local and close by. I am usually available mornings and late evenings just depends on the day. Whether your pet is with me or I'm visiting your home, my priority is their safety and happiness. In your home I will stick to their routines, providing lots of love, walks, and attention to keep them relaxed and secure. I love animals and love to show them consent attention .

“Hailey did a wonderful job caring for my senior pup. She meticulously followed Sydney’s care instructions, and if there were any questions, she was very communicative. My dog unfortunately had several accidents during the sitting, but Hailey handled the situations with care and grace. When I returned, my apartment was also very clean!”

“Tom was very comfortable with Zane. He was able to connect with Zane and made him relax within in few minutes. We will definitely have Tom come over again to be with Zane.”

About: Hi! I'm Maddy, a lifelong animal lover and pet parent to-be, with an extra special place in my heart for, and great comfort level with both dogs and cats. Whether you're out of town or just need someone to drop by and give an extra hand, I’m here to give your pet the care and attention they're used to. I’ll stick to their routine, follow your instructions closely, and make sure they feel comfy, safe, and loved while you’re away. I also love sending photo updates, so you can have extra reassurance your pet is in good hands (and also so you get your daily dose of their cuteness to hold you over until you're back together). I'd be happy to arrange an in-person or virtual meet or greet, so you can feel confident that we're a good match! Reach out any time :) I'm currently in graduate school and working from home - so I welcome the chance to meet and spend time with your pets - whether that's going for a walk or checking in on them in their cozy homes. All that to say, my schedule is very flexible the majority of the time! When I care for pets in their own home, I stick to the owner’s instructions to keep their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I can offer feeding, playtime, walks, and any special care needed. I also treat your space with respect and make sure to leave everything just as you left it.

“Desiree helped us with a last minute request to dog sit our dog. She took great care of him, taking him for a walk and staying with him while we were in Napa. We will definitely book her again.”
