House Sitting in Whitman-Mocine, Hayward, CA

About: I’ve cared for my own dogs and those of family and friends. I love spending time with pets of all ages, from playful puppies to gentle seniors, making sure they get attention, exercise, and lots of love. I currently work part-time caring for seniors and am available mornings, evenings, and weekends, except Tuesday and Thursday nights due to ESL classes. I’m flexible and love making sure pets feel happy and safe. I care for pets at the client’s home so they can feel safe and comfortable in their familiar environment. I give each dog lots of attention, playtime, and exercise, making sure they feel happy, loved, and well cared for while their owners are away.

“Erica was great with our puppy! We had never left him overnight before so were very nervous but she put all our nerves at ease by frequently checking in with updates and photos. She took him on multiple daily walks and gave him lots of love and playtime! We would definitely book her again to watch our puppy and I would definitely recommend her to others who are looking for a sitter to watch their animals.”

“Mai Err took amazing care of our pup and home while we were away! We were able to enjoy our time away and come home to a happy healthy doggo and a clean house!”

“MJ was amazing. She did a great job with our girls and kept us to date the entire time. She not only did a wonderful job with our dogs, but kept our place looking great! Would defiantly recommend to anyone.”

“Wendy was great! Kept our two rambunctious doggies safe and comfy during our few nights away and sent us lots of photos and updates. We'd highly recommend her for your dog or pet care needs!”

“My cats warmed right up to Demi! It was a great peace of mind having her stay in my home with them so they wouldn't be bored or lonely with an empty house while I was away on a weekend trip. Demi was communicative and sent frequent updates and pictures, which I really appreciated. I will definitely be booking with her again!”

About: I have experience watching cats and dogs, both of which taught me how to provide care, patience, and love. I have previously watched animals that required medications and extra attention. I have also watched puppies and helped in their training processes. I am currently working a part-time remote job with my hours being set in the morning. This gives me plenty of time to give my care and attention to any pets as I have a flexible schedule. I am very attentive and caring for pets and am willing to take them out on long walks whether that be in a neighborhood close by or on a trail, I recognize that sometimes pets need some extra cleaning up after, and I definitely acknowledge that pets need attention, especially when their parents are away, which I am more than ready to provide.

“Eric was fantastic and communicated with me through the entire trip including many pictures of my fur babies. He was great taking care of my geriatric dog and puppy alike.”

Kaylin G.

“This is the second time we've had Inha dogsit for us and she's been fantastic both times. Our pups usually take a while to get accustomed to new people, but they both clearly really like Inha. She's also very communicative and responsive. Will hopefully have a chance to get her to sit our pups again!”

“Jerry was amazing with my feline beasts. She has excellent communication, provided me with videos and pics with each visit along with a brief summary of the visit. I am so happy to have found someone who cares for my felines as if they were her own. My cats required medicine and are not the cuddly pair. But Jerri was able to build a connection. I'm so appreciative of how well she took care of my animals and hm.”

Michaela B.

“J was absolutely amazing! We had peace of mind the entire time J was at our house with our dogs and we will definitely be rebooking in the future if needed. We received so many photo updates and our dogs loved playing with Louie!”

About: I take care of more than just dogs and cats. Any guinea pigs, rabbits and birds are welcome too! There is a second story to the house for smaller animals like the above and for cats. Downstairs and the backyard is for boarding dogs. I can care for all sizes of dogs! Fulfilling pet care services for pet parents is currently my full-time job! I offer: dog walks; drop in services for feeding & other petcare needs; sitting in your home; boarding in my home upon scheduling. I have 2 locations to board dogs, both locations are within a mile of one another. I try to make it as homely for the pet as possible. If they would like to follow me around the house that is acceptable if they are potty trained. I garden in the backyard and they are more than welcome to join me outside! Many potty breaks for the puppers! Cats will stay on the second floor along with any small (non-K9) pets.

“I needed help last minute to care for my dood. Jenny was able to come super last minute and take care of him. She went above and beyond to care for Drake. Taking him on multiple walks, playing with him and making sure he was fed on time. I would highly recommend her as a caretaker and would definitely request to have her help again. Thank you Jenny! 💖”

“Marney was very detailed and caring for Timon. She not only messaged and sent pictures throughout the day, but also left detailed notes and a cute report card on how the day went. She handled Timon well on their walk, even when he started acting up and biting the leash, clothes, and even her arm :( She also handled another dog who sprinted up to them and kept the two separated. Marney is very reliable and your dog will be in good hands!”

About: Hi! We’re Max and Abbey – a caring and reliable pet care duo with over a decade of hands-on dog experience between us. Dogs have always been a huge part of our lives, and we treat every pup we care for like family. Max grew up with two energetic and loyal German Shepherds, raising them from puppies through their senior years. That experience taught him everything from obedience training and leash discipline to administering medication and understanding the unique needs of large, active breeds. Abbey was raised with two loving Labrador Retrievers who filled her home with joy (and a little bit of slobber). She became an expert at maintaining routines, managing feeding schedules, and giving plenty of affection and playtime—especially with high-energy pups who never say no to fetch. Together, we bring a balance of structure, patience, and play that dogs thrive on. Whether it’s a relaxed walk, a high-energy play session, or overnight care, we provide a safe, positive environment your pet will love. Why Choose Us: 10+ years combined experience with large breeds Confident with dogs of all sizes and temperaments Skilled in leash handling, crate routines, and safe socialization Reliable communication and real-time updates Flexible scheduling and personalized care We know how much trust it takes to leave your dog in someone else’s hands—and we don’t take that lightly. If you're looking for dependable, experienced, and truly caring sitters, we’d love to meet your furry family member! Between the two of us, your dog will always have company, attention, and care. While we both have full-time schedules, we work in a way that ensures one of us is always home throughout the day. Whether it’s for walks, play breaks, or just a calm presence around the house, your pup will never be left for long stretches without companionship. We’re also home on weekends, so your dog gets even more one-on-one time, longer walks, and relaxed downtime in a cozy, loving environment. We keep a predictable routine that dogs love—meals on time, potty breaks as needed, and plenty of belly rubs in between. You can count on us to make your dog feel safe, happy, and at home while you’re away. Let us know your dog’s needs, and we’ll make sure they’re part of the family while they’re here! Creating a safe, clean, and comfortable environment is always my top priority. I maintain a calm home with plenty of space for dogs to relax, play, and feel at ease. I’m mindful of each pet’s individual needs—whether that’s quiet time, structured routines, or extra play. We’re lucky to live in an area with easy access to open grassy spaces and nearby dog parks, which means regular walks, fresh air, and social time in safe, pet-friendly areas. I only use secure, properly fitted leashes and collars, and I always supervise outdoor time. Whether I’m caring for pets in my own space or a client’s home, I treat them with the same attention and love I would give my own—clear communication, safe handling, and a lot of tail wags included.

“Francis was a fantastic sitter, providing high-attention care of both our pets and our house while we were away. He took careful notes, tracked medications, proved highly flexible with unexpected changes, and even managed to make quick friends with our elusive cats. Francis is the first sitter to interview us during the meet-and-greet, rather than the other way around. From the moment we met, we knew that Francis was a different kind of sitter. Francis is a caretaker. We strongly recommend Francis for your pet and house sitting needs.”

About: I've been puppy sitting for my neighbor who told me all about rover. And said I'd be great at it so here testing my luck . I have a 7m old Malitpoo, who's full of energy and would love meeting some new paw pals while we're at it! For the summer I'm am Available 7 days a week! 24/7. I start work back in August and will be happy adjusting with any clients that are continuous I have a pup right now so o try to get her out of the house first thing in the morning. I like getting all of their wake up zoomies out before it's too hot outside. It really helps to do this as they are more attentive during training after they have played

“Let me preface this by saying I literally trust no one w my dogs lol. Aurora is now the only one I’ll leave my (two very large) dogs with! She is so sweet, understanding, and also went above and beyond to make sure my babies were taken care of. I have one with medical issues and one reactive - what a joy - and she didn’t struggle with either of them. I’m so thankful for sitters like aurora who really care about the dogs 😭🩷”
