Madeline was fantastic with my dear old dog. The photos she sent during her time taking care of him were very thoughtful. He was very relaxed when I returned home, clear evidence that he was well cared for.

Really happy with our first set of visits for a longer-term weekend arrangement! She was attentive to my cat’s needs and pays attention to the little things. When I returned from my trip, my cat was calm & happy and I can tell he was taken care of well. Updates were always timely and she has been very easy to contact when needed/planning etc. which is a something I really needed in a pet sitter and value so so much. She also went the extra mile helping out with monitoring some extra things after a recent health issue he had and am so appreciative of that! We are so happy and relieved to have this great arrangement with a great person, thanks Kaitlyn!

Karin is amazing with dogs! Karin watched my large, 4yr old German Shepherd-mix over four days and did a wonderful job taking the dog to the park, playing, walking. Karin was also very communicative, sending lots of text and photo updates. I've also witnessed Karin train two young puppies, and train/look after an older dog who previously had very little training which was very impressive. Karin can handle dogs of various personalities and life stages and is very responsible, I would highly recommend as a pet sitter!

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was a little boy. I grew up with many dogs in my house, I love taking them for a walk and playing with them all the time, together with my wife and children we have fun and we love spending time with them! So they will receive so much love! We offer 3 walks a day for high energy level dogs we know how important it is for them to release their energy and keep them stress free so we are very active to offer them the activity they need if their energy level is high, For dogs with a low or moderate energy level we offer 2 walks (Morning and evening) and visits to the park 1 time a day, since if physical activity is a little less but in the same way we like them to have a fun time and interact with other dogs and people. Also play time to help your dog exercise and burn off energy they will have a special time to play of ball throwing, chasing, and more fun activities at the backyard ! Follow my wife instagram account to see more pictures @bay_area_buddies_ Together we can take care of several dogs at the same time my wife works from home so they will never be alone when I am away, they will always be accompanied 24/7 For day care services we star to receive dogs at 7:00 am and last pick up time is 7:00pm but please let me know if you need a different schedule also if you need a last minute service we are happy to help, we are open to offer our services as you need it 😁 We are a cage-free doggy services, if your dog need to use one during their stay here you must bring the cage. I have a house that it’s dog friendly outdoor and indoor living spaces with plenty of shade to cover themselves from the sun when is hot weather, we have a long yard and a very high fence so they can enjoy the whole yard, is very secure for dogs and anti-escape with doble door at the backyard so they will be very safe and we ensure a clean environment inside and outside the house, and inside the house they can choose where they want to be and where they want to sleep, we are in a very accesible area very close to I-80, I-580 and I-880 and we live in a very friendly neighborhood so the dogs park is very close, also we offer grooming services for $25 to keep them so clean and fresh please let me know if you want it for your doggy and please feel free to ask any questions that you have!

If we could give Tanitsha 50 stars we would!! We adopted lucky about a month and a half ago and he is our first ever dog. He is a senior and is so sweet but definitely has some trauma and anxiety. Pretty shortly after we got him we needed to have someone start dropping in regularly when we were both at work, and we understood quickly it couldn’t be just anyone given his anxiety. Tanitsha has been incredible. She’s able to handle when he shows his fear through guarding or growling super well and calm him down. She was able to really get through to him and help him settle in more than we could have imagined! She always leaves excellent detailed reports of how the drop in went and he’s clearly so happy to be with her. Not only has Tanitsha done a great job every week with the drop ins, but she is an experienced dog trainer as well. We started working with her on training for lucky and OMG over the course of just a couple weeks he is going on longer walks with no resistance, has pretty much stopped his guarding behavior, is getting in the car with ease, can have new people over without freaking out, is being social with other dogs and people, and most importantly is so so much happier now that he’s healing from whatever he was going through before we got him! Tanitsha’s approach is wonderful and helps him build confidence, have clear expectations, and makes him feel safe. She has really taught me and my partner how to be good dog parents and having that continuity of working with her every week makes us really feel supported in this new journey. She has gone above and beyond in all ways and I cannot recommend bringing her into you and your pets life enough!
