Cat Sitting Woodside

“Nina took very good care of my cats when we are away from home. Nina also took good quality of photos. I will recommend Nina to all nearby pet parents”

“Julia was great! She went above and beyond for our cats. She went above the call of duty and really made sure our cats were well cared for. We very much appreciated all that she did for us and our little ones. We would definitely hire her again!”

“Danielle did a wonderful job taking care of my precious cats while I was out of town!!! The cats are usually very shy but they warmed up to her right away. She is very gentle, sweet, kind, and professional. I highly recommend Danielle!!!”

About: I’ve been a cat parent to my domestic shorthair and domestic longhair since they were kittens in 2022, so I have plenty of firsthand experience caring for cats through different stages of their lives. I’ve also frequently cared for my friend’s Ragdoll, so I’m comfortable getting to know different personalities, routines, and preferences. I’m also a big dog lover and will be welcoming a Miniature American Shepherd puppy of my own next spring! I’m so excited to meet and care for some of your pups in the meantime. Whether it’s keeping your cat company, dropping in for some playtime and cuddles, or taking your dog out for a walk, I’ll make sure your pets get plenty of attention and care while you’re away. 🐾 I’m currently working from home most of the time, and it’s very easy for me to step away for 30 minutes to an hour, so I can go visit your fur friend and make sure they are doing alright. When I drop in, I will follow your pet’s routine exactly like you instruct me to. I will use my best judgement if an emergency comes up.

“I have used this service for many years at this point, and Julie is simply the best. She truly care about the animals and is also very knowledgeable. On the second day she quickly noticed from one of the cats’ behavior that he was sick and took him to the hospital, where the doctor found a partial urethral obstruction, which could have had dire consequences if diagnosed late. I cannot imagine what would have happened if we didn’t luckily have her. We feel truly indebted to her!”

About: I've been around animals for as long as I can remember, starting with Ginger, my family's German shepherd and husky mix, four cats, fish, and pet rodents growing up. I later spent about two years volunteering at my local SPCA, working hands-on with dogs of every size and temperament, from bouncy puppies to nervous rescues. I've also had cats of my own as an adult, including two rescues, and fostered kittens before I started traveling. Since then I've cared for pets through farm stays and housesits across Costa Rica, Panama, Spain, and Canada — dogs, cats, chickens, turkeys, goats, sheep, pigs, a donkey, as well as an adult pet rabbit. 😊 I'm comfortable administering medication, working with anxious or senior animals, and managing multi-pet households. I'm calm, attentive, and treat every home and animal I look after like my own. I'm currently transitioning to the San Mateo County area temporarily starting early November and building my schedule around pet care full-time, so I have plenty of flexibility for house sits, and daily visits, including extended or last-minute stays. I don't currently have a conflicting 9-to-5, which means I can commit fully to a pet's normal routine for the length of a booking rather than fitting care in around other work. Since I focus on house sitting, I stay at your home rather than asking your pet to adjust to a new environment. I follow feeding, medication, and walking routines exactly as instructed, keep the house clean and secure, and send regular photo updates so you can relax while you're away. I don't bring other pets into the home, so your animal gets my full attention for the whole stay.

“Cynthia was great! my babies got lots of love, looking forward to booking her again 🫶🏽”

About: Hello! Here is a little about me! I am a recent graduate from the University of Oregon and am now based in Menlo Park. I have always loved animals and have grown up surrounded by pets my entire life. I have cared for my own pets, fostered animals, and spent lots of time caring for other people’s pets, so I understand how important it is find someone you can trust with your furry family members. I love getting to know each pet’s personality and will make sure that they feel comfortable, happy, and loved while you’re away! Skills/Qualifications: - Patient, attentive, and responsible ❤️ - Comfortable with walks, feeding, and playtime 🦮 - Maintaining daily routines 🏡 - Senior care 🐾 - Medication administration 💊 - Keeping you updated with photos/videos 📸 I am currently a graduate student studying Speech-Language Pathology through New York University. I have a flexible school schedule, which allows me to easily fit pet sitting into my routine and spend time giving your animals the care and companionship they need. I’ll make sure to follow each pet’s usual routine and give them plenty of attention in the comfort of their own home. I’ll also follow any specific instructions from the pet parent to make sure their pet feels comfortable while they’re away.

“Stepainie is Amazing! We always know our kitty is in good hands when we have her doing drop in visits. Also we are definitely those people who ask on the fly requests to make their kitty happy like opening and closing windows, turning the tv on, playing with specific toys, etc. and Stephanie accommodates every request. We appreciate her so much and our cat LOVES her.”

Sarah G.

“Kate did a great job watching our cat and sent over some very cute pictures. Our cat seemed to warm up to her quickly!”

Vanessa K.

“We are so grateful to Cortigen. She went above and beyond dealing with our cats with tricky behaviors. She was fantastic at communicating and it was clear she cared deeply about Finn and Ollie’s individual needs. Would happily recommend her.”

About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. Growing up my family always had dogs and I was trusted at a young age to feed, walk, and otherwise care for them (which included administering medication to dogs who were not always the most cooperative). I have also been riding horses competitively for over 20 years and was a member of the University of Georgia Division I Equestrian Team. Although I was surrounded by horses during my time in college, I desperately missed my family dogs and as a result started house and pet sitting for people in the Athens area. My junior year my roommate got a dog and I frequently chipped in to help with his care when she was out of town or had a particularly hectic schedule. After college I attended law school in Washington, DC where I continued to house and pet sit for my friends, other residents in my apartment building, and others in the community. I graduated from law school in May 2025 and have since moved back to the Bay Area (I grew up in Menlo Park) as I am in between professional opportunities. I have found that I have some extra time on my hands and so I thought I would get back to house and pet sitting, this time specifically through Rover. In the past I have always gotten clients through word of mouth, which is why my extensive experience is not necessarily reflected on my Rover profile. At this time I am house and pet sitting on a part time basis, but I have a lot of flexibility as most of my other daily commitments can be easily fulfilled from any location; this means that if you have a pet that prefers constant company I can easily work from your home so your pet can get everything they need. I feel comfortable administering medications and am used to feeding animals with more complicated diets/food regimes. I have experience caring for animals of all ages. I am responsible, trustworthy, communicative, detail oriented, and most importantly love animals, which means that you can be worry free while your pet is in my hands. I am also very neat and conscientious, so if I am staying at your home I will take very good care of your space and your plants (if necessary). At the moment I am house and pet sitting part time, but my schedule is quite flexible so I have quite a lot of availability. I can drop in for walks, feeding, potty breaks, playtime, cat litter cleanings, etc basically every day of the week any time before 7:00 pm. My one schedule restriction is a weekly appointment on Wednesdays from 3:00 - 4:00. I update my availability often and will make sure that any other schedule restrictions that come up are reflected on there for your convenience. When it comes to house and pet sitting that involves me staying at your home, I am available for that any day of the week. I can complete most of my other professional commitments (Monday - Friday) remotely from your home, so your pet would not have to be alone all day while I went to work. I am unfortunately not able to bring your pet to my home at this time, so all care would occur at (or around in the case of walking) your home. I will follow whatever instructions you provide regarding the care of your pet. I feel comfortable administering medication, managing complicated diets, and dealing with picky eaters (my dog is a very picky eater and I have learned a lot of tactics that work well for him and other dogs I have cared for). If your pet uses any sort of automatic feeder, litter box, etc I am a fast learner and feel confident that I would be able to work with most devices of this sort. I likely would generally walk your pet around your neighborhood, but if time permits and that is something you would like/feel comfortable with I am happy to take your pet to a local dog park, park, hike, etc. My dog loves playing with frisbees and balls, so if that is something your pet enjoys I would be more than happy to do that as well.

“Ian always takes such good care of our boys and always leaves our house immaculate. It’s so huge for us to be able to be away from home and have someone there we can trust. We also really appreciate the regular updates and adorable pictures. I cannot recommend Ian enough!!”

“Maggie was lovely to work with! She sent continuous updates and pictures of my cat so I had no worries while I was overseas. Would definitely book again.”

About: We’re an engaged couple looking for more time with pets! We’d love to give your pet extra care, companionship, and affection while you’re away or taking some time for yourself. We only care for one pet (or one family) at a time so your pet can get plenty of attention with us. As a couple, your pet gets double the care and companionship at no extra cost! We especially enjoy boarding pets in our home. We don’t have pets or children of our own. Our private fenced backyard allows for plenty of space to play. We go on 1–2 walks a day and would love to have your pet join us! We can’t wait to meet your furry family member and give them a home-away-from-home! 🐾🥰 One of our favorite things to do is go on walks together. We always joke and say we’re meant to have a pet, so we decided to do Rover! We have no pets or kids in our house and we plan to take care of one pet/family at a time so we can give them our full attention and make sure they are as comfortable as can be. We also have a private fenced backyard.

“Ran was a very thoughtful and responsive caregiver! She took care of my cat during my family trip with very detailed care and a lot of love. Highly recommended!”

“Ana provided exceptional and reliable care for our two cats, Gimli and MoMo, while we were away. She is highly trustworthy and extremely responsible. Her communication was excellent; she sent frequent photos and updates to confirm the cats were consistently fed, cared for, and happy. We felt completely at ease knowing Ana was looking after them. We returned home to two relaxed, well-cared-for pets. We highly recommend Ana for her professional and caring service!”

About: I’ve never known life without a pet until a few years ago, and every opportunity I can to love on and care for an animal is one I take with joy. I’ve cared for excitable dogs and managed reactive ones, so any energy your pet brings is one I will look forward to getting to know. I work from 7-4 weekdays, so I’m flexible to support with an evening walk or to take care of a lower maintenance pet on weekdays. Weekends I’m available for walks or house sitting as needed. I’m happy to foster the environment that supports your pet best! I’ve experience with highly playful pets, as well as pets who need attention. I will give your pet the most attention and care I can.
