Cat Sitting Walnut Creek

“Rachael was punctual, great with communication, and took cute photos of our boys. She seems to have a lot of experience and wasn't intimidated by our younger dog that can be a handful. We look forward to having her come again!”

Emily G.

“Tatiana was a wonderful caregiver for my elderly kitty. He was having issues with vomiting and she managed it extremely well and communicated beautifully about the problem and what to do. I recommend her highly!”

Christine R.

“Adaley was so great!! She has had amazing communication throughout my entire trip and provided updates on my kitty daily. My cat can be a little shy at first but she warmed up almost immediately to Adaley which definitely speaks to her kindness and attention. I would absolutely recommend booking her services :)”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life, including a Mini Goldendoodle and a Maltese, and caring for them has always been second nature to me. I’ve also dog-sat for many different dogs, ranging from family members’ pets to friends and friends-of-friends, giving me experience with a variety of breeds, personalities, and routines. I truly love dogs of all breeds and personalities, and I enjoy giving them the attention, affection, and routine they need to feel comfortable and happy. While I don’t currently have a pet living with me, that means I can fully focus on giving your dog personalized care, plenty of love, and a safe, welcoming environment. I work from 8:00 am to 12pm every day from Monday to Friday! However I am free on the weekends. I am more than willing to adjust and be flexible with times! I tailor my care to each pet’s individual needs and the owner’s instructions. I take time to get to know every pet’s personality, routine, and comfort level so they feel safe and relaxed in my care. Whether in my home or a client’s home, I follow feeding schedules, walking routines, playtime preferences, and any special instructions closely. I treat every pet with patience, respect, and lots of attention, and I’m always happy to provide updates to keep owners informed and at ease.

“My cats seem well-cared. I am very grateful!! In communications, I could see her passion for cats, commitment and knowledge and experience caring for cats. The setting to care my cats were wonderful. Thank you very much, Stefanie!”

“Reliable and friendly. My super shy cat even felt comfortable to come out and say hello. I feel comfortable my baby is being well taken care of while I’m away.”

About: I’m available any day after 3 p.m. and have plenty of time to give your cat the attention and care they need. I’m happy to spend time playing, relaxing, and keeping them company. I'll care for your cat as if they were my own. I can provide food, fresh water, treats, playtime, cuddles, and plenty of attention. I'm also happy to clean the litter box and take care of their basic needs while keeping them safe and comfortable.

About: I'm a retired officer, background-checked through Rover, and have more than 10 years of experience caring for my own dogs as well as friends', family members', and clients' pets. Throughout my career and personal life, responsibility, trustworthiness, and attention to detail have always been important to me, and I bring those same qualities to every pet I care for. In 2016, I adopted Barney the Shih Tzu, followed by Jack in 2019. Both were estimated to be about four years old at the time. In 2025, Jack passed away from bone cancer, giving me firsthand experience caring for a senior dog with significant medical needs. In 2022, I rescued Penny, the white pup in my profile photo. Certifications & Experience • Cat & Dog First Aid (American Red Cross) • Experience administering oral medications • Experience caring for senior pets and pets with special needs • Experience caring for dogs and cats of various ages, sizes, and temperaments, including a large Rottweiler I believe every pet deserves patience, kindness, consistency, and individualized care. Whether your pet is energetic and playful, senior and slower-paced, or simply happiest sticking to a familiar routine, my goal is to provide dependable care while helping them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine, and I'm home much of the time. This allows me to provide regular companionship, potty breaks, feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and supervision throughout the day. Because I intentionally limit the number of pets I care for at one time, I am able to provide a more personalized level of attention and maintain a calmer environment for the pets in my care. Whether caring for pets in my home or in a client's home, I strive to maintain their normal routine as closely as possible. Consistency helps pets feel comfortable, secure, and relaxed while their owners are away. My schedule is generally flexible, allowing me to accommodate a variety of care needs, including daycare, overnight care, drop-in visits, and pet sitting in a client's home. Pick-up and drop-off service may be available depending on distance and scheduling. My dogs are part of the family and spend much of their time relaxing near us, on the furniture, or curled up on a lap. Visiting pets are treated with the same level of care, attention, and companionship while in my home. Dogs are welcome on furniture unless owners request otherwise. I intentionally limit the number of guest dogs I accept at one time to help create a calm, safe, and low-stress environment. This allows me to provide close supervision and a more personalized experience than many high-volume pet care settings. If you prefer your dog to be crated for sleeping, feeding, or when unattended, I'm happy to accommodate as long as a crate is provided. Visiting dogs should be reasonably housebroken, with exceptions considered on a case-by-case basis for puppies and special circumstances. Meet-and-greets are strongly preferred whenever possible before services begin. They allow me to learn about your pet's personality, needs, and comfort level while helping determine whether my home and care style are a good fit. When caring for pets in a client's home, I respect both the pet's routine and the owner's home, providing dependable care, companionship, exercise, and attentive supervision. I believe every pet deserves patience, kindness, consistency, and respect. My goal is to provide a safe, comfortable environment where pets can feel relaxed, secure, and well cared for while their owners are away.

About: I have been doing overnight house-sitting with dogs for over 15 years. I work with animals as a full time job but do not have any pets of my own. I love dogs so much and love cuddling, playing, and walking with them. I find joy in keeping them company while their people are away. I am very skilled at reading the animal's energy and know when to push and when to back off. It is important to gently establish dominance in the relationship so that the dog can know who is in charge and feel more secure. I work at the Lindsay Wildlife Experience in Walnut Creek. Here is work with and handle live, California native wildlife. I work with them and do training with them to reinforce desired behaviors with positive reinforcement. Working with wild animals, it is very important that we key in and pay attention to the animal's body language and posture in order to avoid unpleasant or unwanted behaviors. I am available for walking dogs any day of the week. I can walk throughout the day on Fridays-Mondays, and Tuesday-Thursdays I am avaiable in the late afternoons and early evenings. I can visit with cats on the same schedule. I will care for your animals in your home as instructed. I love taking dogs for walks and hikes, or to the local dog park. I am unable to care for animals in my home because I have a small apartment that already is home to two cats and two lizards.

“Rebecca took excellent care of our three cats while we were away. Our senior guy was able to keep on his medication regimen. Her communication was great and we enjoyed her updates. We're so grateful.”

Theresa Rizzo and L.

“Sabrina was a great sitter! I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing my cat was being well taken care of and that I would receive regular updates. Having that peace of mind is the most important thing for me when I’m away for an extended period. When I arrived home, it was like I had never left—my cat was happy, comfortable, and clearly well cared for. I would absolutely book with Sabrina again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring cat sitter. 🐱💕”

About: I work from home, which means your pet gets something most sitters can't offer: a human who's actually there all day. I do house sitting in your home and drop-in visits across Walnut Creek and nearby areas. I grew up with dogs and cats, have helped friends and family with everything from puppies to senior dogs, and recently welcomed a cat into my own home. I'm comfortable with feeding routines, walks, playtime, and giving medication exactly as you instruct — including pets with special routines or medical needs. Before we start, I'll learn your pet's habits and preferences so the routine doesn't skip a beat. While you're away, you'll get regular photo updates so you can see they're relaxed and happy. I work from home with a fully flexible schedule, so pet care fits around your pet's routine — not the other way around. For house sitting, I'm there through the day and overnight; for drop-ins, we'll lock in visit times before booking so feeding and walks stay consistent. Your home and your pet's routine stay exactly as you left them. Before we start, we'll do a meet-and-greet to cover temperament, medications, feeding, quirks, and emergency contacts. I'm background-checked through Rover, and I'll send photo updates and messages so you're never wondering how they're doing.

About: I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember and have been pet sitting for over 10 years. I’m also a proud pet parent to two cats and a dog, so I know firsthand how much our pets mean to us and how important it is to have someone you can truly trust with them. I’ve cared for all kinds of dogs and cats over the years, and I really enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality. Whether your pup needs a long walk and lots of playtime, your cat wants some attention and cuddles, or your pet just needs someone around to keep them company, I’m happy to help. I treat every pet like they’re my own and always do my best to keep them comfortable, happy, and on their normal routine while you’re away. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing your pet is being taken care of! I’m currently in school so I have a lot of flexibility for drop in visits throughout the day! I’m available during the week as well as weekends. I care for pets in their own homes, keeping their routines comfortable and familiar. I provide feeding, walks, playtime, cuddles, and plenty of attention while keeping their space clean and secure.

“Saylor did an excellent job taking care of my kitties. She even earned the trust of the extremely timid one, which is a feat that no other sitter and many friends had failed to do previously. She was attentive throughout her stay with them, and it was clear to me that they felt cared for when I finally got home.”

“Jessica was amazing with my cat, Rambo! I had to be away for medical reasons, and she truly went above and beyond to take care of my grumpy old man 😅. Rambo isn’t exactly the playful type, but Jessica stayed positive, patient, and kept trying every possible way to win him over — and never gave up on him (which is quite the achievement 😂). She was super friendly, communicative, and accommodating, which made me feel completely at ease while I was away. We absolutely loved her! I’d recommend Jessica to anyone looking for a kind, reliable, and genuinely caring sitter. We’re so grateful for her! ❤️🐾”

About: Need someone you can trust to care for your furry family while you're away? I'm a lifelong animal lover and proud cat mom to Aster Blue, my sweet 11-year-old boy who loves other animals, too! I offer attentive, loving pet care, whether it's feeding, walks, playtime, companionship, or keeping your pets comfortable in their own home. I understand that every animal has their own personality and needs, and I'll treat your furry family with the same patience, affection, and care I give my own. Available seven days a week and around for holiday pet sitting. I'd love to meet your four-legged family! I currently work part-time, locally, so I have plenty of time to play with your pups! I am available mornings, afternoons and evenings as well as all weekend long. I have a fenced yard and a friendly cat to keep your fur babies company, as well as a park nearby where I can take dogs to play.

About: I’m a responsible and caring pet lover who truly enjoys spending time with animals. My home is a safe, loving environment where pets receive plenty of attention and care. My partner and I work together to make sure every dog gets the exercise, playtime, and affection they need, so your pet will always have company and lots of love while they’re with us. I am a stay-at-home mom with a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide reliable and attentive care throughout the day. I spend most of my time at home or running local errands, so I can easily fit pet visits, walks, feeding, and playtime into my routine. My partner also has a flexible schedule and is happy to help when needed, allowing us to provide consistent care and attention for your pets. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities.

About: I understand that our pets are our family, so I always aim to care for them with the same empathy and patience that you do. I dedicated my career to becoming an experienced animal welfare professional because I love animals so much! I started working in veterinary settings, then handled rescue intakes and studied dog training. This background gave me the unique ability to truly understand cat and dog body language, ensuring they always feel secure and understood. Whether its managing large dog playgroups or administering basic medical care, I am highly experienced and comfortable with all sizes, ages, and temperaments. I’m also happy to assist with any other unique pets in your household! I have experience working with exotics in vet clinics but I love all creatures and am happy to care for any non-traditional pets. I look forward to giving your animals a fun, loving, and mentally stimulating routine (: My current work schedule will allow me to be available mornings and early afternoons every Monday through Friday. Generally, anywhere from 7 am - 1 pm. I grew up with animals my whole life and often helped take care of them. Their happiness and love means the world to me, so I always make sure they’re fulfilled. Spending quality time together is important, I love cuddling or just hanging out with them whenever and wherever. I will follow their feeding schedule and always stay alert to make sure I’m there if they need me, so you can rest assured that your beloved babies will be treated well when you’re away.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was a very young child, and my first ever dog was also the most medically complicated dog ever. She required a twice daily walk at minimum for 2-3 miles due to her energy, but she also had a lot of different allergies, which meant that after every walk, I had to give her either a bath or good cleaning of the paw and face. I can easily take your dog on a very, very long walk or run, and will give them the utmost love and cuddles after it all. I can drop by or stay overnight at any house and can easily adjust my schedule regarding personal activities to make sure your pet(s) have tons of attention. While I do not have pet first aid certifications, I have held a Red Cross certifications for first aid and blood borne pathogens prevention. I also have a picky kitty who needs his medicines to be hidden within his food or given to him directly, so I have practice with that as well.

About: Currently taking reservation for November and December!! Christmas sitting still available on calendar :) Hello! My name is Hosana and I am currently an undergraduate college student at UCSD. I have loved animals for as long as I could remember! Growing up in a smaller home, I was never able to own a dog of my own, but being obsessed with animals, I wouldn't let this stop me from being around them an gaining as much experience as I could by taking care of pets for friends and family throughout my life. Eventually I started working at a local doggy daycare/ pet boarding facility in Walnut Creek known as, North Main Pet Lodge. I have about a year's worth of experience working professionally with a multitude of different dog breeds and taking care of their daily needs. I've worked with both dogs and cats, and other small animals such as hamsters, rabbits, and such and know how to administer medication, bathe, feed, and do other tasks related to pet care. Staying flexible and knowing how to deal with all sorts of situations is something I have come to be very acquainted with through my work experience. Communication is of big importance to me and making sure all pet parents stay informed throughout their stay away from their pets. Currently I am working on my finishing my degree online and no longer need to attend classes on campus. Therefore I will be in the bay area permanently and am looking to work with those who need the occasional sitter. Have been actively sitting for my clients since 2025. Please feel free to contact me and help this college student out with your business, as I also look forward to spending time with your pets! Thanks for reading :) Currently taking online classes. Would be ideal for pet parents who want someone to be at the house often for daily routine, but also able to step away for up to 4 hrs at a time few days of the weekdays (usually Mon, Fri). Weekends I am almost always available all day. Almost always at home for morning, afternoon potty breaks, evening, overnight. When in a client's home, the pet's safety and health are my number one concern. With my experience, I have learned several tricks that help with a variety of temperaments and personalities that each dog has. I also believe in being respectful of my client's homes and will take that very seriously. Overall, any specific concerns or lists can be communicated to me and I will make sure to keep an open line of communication.
