Pet Sitting Waterfront

About: I’ve had cats my whole life and have always been surrounded by dogs. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and love getting outside for walks, playtime, and plenty of attention. I’m an all-around animal lover and always treat every pet like my own! I work full-time during the week, but I’m available before and after work and can also stop in during my lunch break. I have more flexibility on weekends and am happy to work around your pet’s normal routine for walks, meals, playtime, and check-ins. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet and entering your home. I’ll always follow your instructions, respect your pet’s routine and boundaries, and keep you updated while you’re away. I’ll care for your pets and home with the same attention and respect I would want someone to give mine.

About: Hi,I’m Maddy, an energetic, reliable pet sitter experienced with both playful puppies and senior dogs. I do patient walks, keep routines steady, and gives fun photo updates so you always feel at ease. I love making pets feel at home and owners feel at peace! I’m currently going to school part time so my schedule is pretty open! I always have time to squeeze in some nice evening walks or even morning ones as well! I keep all pets safe, happy and comfortable while following their normal routines, including feeding, walks, playtime, and plenty of attention and care. When playing in the backyard or front yard I always ensure all gates are closed.

About: I absolutely love animals and especially dogs. I love walking them, taking them on fun outdoor adventures and also checking in on them while you are out and about. I may not currently have a pet of my own but I promise I will love yours as if they were my own. My schedule is very open and I make my own hours with the part-time work that I do. Plenty of time to visit with and walk your fur-baby! I am happy to walk your dog in your neighborhoods. Also, I can come and visit with them at your home as much as needed.

About: I took care of my childhood dog since I was 13, and that was for around 4 years. I am open to learning new things in order for your dog to be happy. I’m planning on getting a part time job, so I’ll have more than enough time in the mornings and late afternoon to take care of your cutie! I will always make sure to follow client-specific rules for their pets in order to keep fur babies safe and comfortable during our time together.

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I have a natural knack for connecting with them. I grew up with dogs, cats, the occasional rodent and I have previously pet-sit and dog walked for friends. I have had pets of all ages and am comfortable administering meds if needed. I have a very open and flexible schedule, though I occasionally teach scuba diving on the weekends. Because my hours vary, please check my Rover calendar to confirm availability. Because I provide care directly in your home and neighborhood, your pet's safety and the security of your home are my top priorities. • Home & Leash Safety: I always double-check that doors, windows, and gates are securely locked when entering or leaving your home. When we are out on a walk, your dog will remain securely leashed at all times, and I maintain a high awareness of our surroundings to avoid any stressful interactions with other animals or traffic. • Constant Communication: I provide regular, detailed updates with photos from our walks or drop-in visits so you always know exactly how your pet is doing. • Emergency Preparedness: Before our first booking, we will complete a Meet & Greet to review your pet’s exact routine. I will ask for your primary vet's details, emergency contacts, and clear instructions for your pet’s specific medication schedules if required.

About: I’ve been around animals my entire life! I’ve had three dogs (german shepherd, pitbull, lab) and three cats. I have experience with very high energy, fun, loving dogs and it’s never to much.😉 Being around these animals for so long, I’ve gotten experience accommodating diet needs, medicinal needs, even surgery recovery. Any animal you can think of I’ve probably taken care of! I love my babies with everything in me and I’ll love yours just as much! I can wait to meet you and them! I’m available every day of the week! I can accommodate early mornings, late nights, whatever you need! I primarily work my current job in early afternoons but even that is open at times. I am always attentive and alert when taking care of another’s pet. Being that my dogs have gone through multiple surgeries I’ve learned to observe mannerisms to help and accommodate pets as best I can!

“Amelia thank you for the fabulous care, not only of our pets but of our home while we were away. Love your humor, your communications, and your connectedness. You made us feel very comfortable being away knowing that our pets were in good hands and well cared for!”

About: Hi, I’m Lauren! I’m a lifelong animal lover and dog mom to two adorable pups: Buttercup (12), my sweet senior with special needs and daily medications, and Mochi (5), a goofy, high-energy ball of love. I’ve raised them both since they were tiny pups. I grew up with huskies and horses, so I’m comfortable caring for dogs of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels. Whether your pup needs long walks, gentle care, or a calm, experienced sitter for meds or routines—I’ve got you covered. 🐾 Why pet parents book me: • Firsthand experience with senior dogs & medications • Calm, loving, and deeply reliable care • Great with shy, energetic, or special needs pups • Flexible for last-minute walks or overnights • Fast communication & peace of mind while you’re away Most of my time is spent at my house as I am a work remote/work from home freelance video producer and editor in television. So your pet will have my full attention and go on lots of walk. I’m able to accommodate schedules and routines! We also have a fenced in backyard for the animals to run around in. At home, I keep your babies with me and separate from our two very friendly (with dogs and humans) shitzu pups. If you’re comfortable with the pups mixing and mingling, then I’ll let them hang out together. Otherwise, I’ll keep your pet with me in my office. My home office has a couch, a dog bed and if they like to cool off their warm bellies, a hardwood floor. Regardless, your pet will be with me! I like to take walks around the courthouse since it’s so pretty and close by, so we’ll do that as well. We also have a back patio that I can additionally let them run around in. Depending on your comfort levels and size of your pup, your pet can sleep in my bedroom (not in bed) or in the living room in front of our bedroom on a plush dog bed. ***A couple of side notes: 1. Let me know any restrictions your pet has around food, diets, allergies and treats. 2. We also have a crate, if that’s something you want/need for your pet. 3. Please wait for a confirmation from me regarding your booking. I do accept last minute requests but every now and then last minute obligations come up!

About: Ever since I was little i’ve always had family pets and constant foster puppies. From this experience i’ve learned plenty on how to approach an animal in a safe loving open way, and even as far as bottle feeding , correct diet, a little bit of simple training, and walking experience. I can guarantee you your animals are safe in my care, if not over-loved. I work a part time job at petco on weekends and weekdays. I occasionally volunteer with pets on weekends depending on my open availability. I also am a college student and have classes only in the mornings Tues-Thursday, only ever as long as 4 hours total. Other than class and work I am open and flexible to you and your schedule/convenience. Growing up with cats and dogs really opened me up and got me very comfortable with all and every animals. I’ve learned very important aspects as when and what an animal needs and why. I am here to follow your instructions and any specific details in terms of care you may need/request and have no problem conforming to whatever task may be asked of me. I can assure you I am more than capable of any animal big, small, energetic, played-back, or even sometimes mischievous. I personally like to think it’s easier for me to connect with animals then it may be with humans, which can guarantee you I am here for none other than the safety and care of your pet(s).

About: I grew up with pets of all kinds in my house. We currently have 3 dogs and 1 cat, and my step dad is a dog trainer so I have a bit of knowledge regarding that subject as well. I am experienced in walking, bath, and play time with all sorts of animals, not just cats and dogs. I have experience with horses, tortoises, rabbits, hamsters, guinea pigs etc. Starting in January 2026 I will be a student at Cal Poly majoring in chemistry! I have class for 4 hours Monday-Wednesday and Friday. I teach dance classes for 1-3 hours Tuesday-Wednesday evenings. My weekends are completely available! I am firm in my idea that animals need lots of attention, exercise and play time. I will listen to what your pet tells me they need whether it’s a cuddle, a walk, or a potty break!

About: I've been taking care of animals since I was 15. I’ve taken care of both senior dogs, and puppies. My family has a rescue dog (that I don't live with at the moment), and was raised taking care of her in all seasons of life. I work from home most days. I live close to a walking trail and near a park that I would be happy to take your pet to for the bathroom and to let off some energy. My apartment is clean and has a fenced in balcony. I live near several green spaces and large fields where dogs are welcome to run around, let out energy, or go to the bathroom. I also live near lots of walking trails. I am familiar with crating but am happy to have your pet roaming the house if that is preferred.

“Ryan took great care of my kitty. He is very engaging with play time and takes the most beautiful photos. I appreciate how communicative and thorough he is with daily updates.”
