“Lee is the absolute best! Firstly she is so communicative and responsive, she makes all of the logistics so easy. Our dog is very anxious and typically very apprehensive of new environments, people and dogs - he can’t just be left with just any dog sitter - and Lee was so understanding of him and made him feel right at home. She truly understands small dogs!!”


“Baxter has stayed Andrea and her pups twice for daycare, with hopefully more days to come! Andrea has a gentle, kind spirit and seems very attuned to a dog's needs. At our meet & greet, she asked great questions about Baxter and his routines. She provided fun updates with pics a few times a day -- much appreciated!”


“I am extremely protective of my fur baby and thus picky when it comes to who I trust him with! I was so relieved when I found Jeremy this summer before starting back to teaching. I have peace of mind now because I know Jeremy is giving my dog Teddy great care and attention. Jeremy is a kind, thoughtful and positive person and also professional. Teddy is a smart dog who needs stimulation and he gets access to a bunch of toys which he picks through and chooses from! He also gets good work outs on his walks. He comes home tired and happy! I highly recommend Jeremy.”



“My dog Sasha loves KIm and Jeff, she is always overly happy to see them and hang out with them whenever she comes. Very welcoming and they helped me quickly get over my fear of my Dog being in a new environment.”


“Lilly was a super sitter. Lilly obviously enjoys her time with dogs. Lilly kept us up to date on walks and feedings and sent pictures in real time of Lucy having fun. Thank you.”


“Aman was excellent with Deuce. He came back happy, excited, and ready to play. He sent me a pic of Deuce while in his care, and gave me updates during his time there. I’d definitely book with Aman again. He was pleasant, polite, and kept me updated. Great vibes all around.”


About: Dog parent who loves caring for all kinds of animals! I have one medium sized dog and one small dog, both of whom can give your pet that extra company they need if they would like a playmate! I love to keep active so walking or running and playing with your dog will be no problem. My own dogs require an abundance of attention and patience, so I’m skilled in belly rubs, fetch, tag, and overall keeping pets entertained throughout the day. I am looking forward to being your pet’s new best friend and all around entertainment while you are away. And of course I will provide you with updates to assure you that your pet is in good and caring hands so you’ll have no worries! I work remotely so your dog will never be left alone and I am able to provide them with an abundance of attention throughout the day. Pets will have free roaming of backyard and house as well as going on walks around the neighborhood. I can also provide crating if that makes your dog feel more comfortable and if they’re not friendly with dogs, there’s a separate, well-ventilated finished basement we can hangout in so they can be away from my dogs. Whatever needs your pets may have, I can be sure to accommodate!

“Erika has made our pup Murphy very welcome in her home and her dog Sweet Pea is very cute. Murphy comes home very happy after her stay, and Erika does a great job sending us photos & updates. We are very happy to have found Erika!”


About: I've had dogs and cats my whole life (plus horses, goats, cows, chickens, guinea pigs and hamsters). The last 20 years I have had Frenchies and English bulldogs. Along the way I have also had chihuahua's, Rottweilers, pits, cattle dogs, American bulldogs as well as a number of rescue cats. I've adopted many from shelters, however, several showed up on my porch and adopted me. I am currently available 24/7. I can watch dogs in your home or mine. I am available to walk them on a set schedule, which I do with my dog regularly. I currently have a French bulldog, our day consists of reward based training/walks, endless love, healthy treats, enrichment toys, and hikes. I would like to offer this to other pets as well. I am understanding of any dogs special needs or diets. We run a routine program as far as food, feeding time and exercise. I will only board your dog(s)/cat(s) along with mine. I do not double book as I want to keep everyone safe and comfortable.

About: 10 years of experience taking care of my dogs, I have two senior small dogs, a big back yard. Your dog gonna feel like they're home. We are a family of three and I'm a stay home mom, I only leave home to take and pick up our daughter to/fromschool. Your babies will have plenty of attention. I have a fenced backyard, my dogs are used to staying with other dogs, and I could provide a crate if your dog needs one.

About: Offer frequent updates and I am reliable on safety, and dedicated to happy pups and a peace of mind! I navigate through calmness and have a flexible schedule! Pet care is natural part of my daily routine. I live in artist lofts with no pet fees, so I’m out in my complex talking to all the cats and neighbors with dogs. I help feed and walk my neighbors pets whenever they need. It’s like clockwork! My comfortable loft is calm, and pet friendly. Their playtime will be supervised, and I’ve invested in plenty of gates and pens so they are kept safe. When entering a guests home, I will remain respectful to their space and keep everything familiar for the pet. I will keep updating, clean up after the pets and I, as well as loosen of any stress for the pet while the owner is away.

About: I don’t just care for your pets, I treat them as part of my family. I love spending time with them, whether it’s playing, resting, or giving them attention, and I want your pet to feel loved at all times. I am currently available to care for your pets at any time, whether it’s during the day, night, or weekends. I offer flexible scheduling to fit your needs and ensure your pets receive the care and attention they deserve. I know that the most important thing is pet care, and one of those is their feeding. I can provide food at any necessary time, in case they have a specific feeding schedule, and I can do it without any problem. I will also dedicate enough time for play or bathroom breaks.

About: Hi, I’m Eleanna and caring for animals has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember! I grew up spending time in my Greek village, I was always rescuing and caring for stray pets. I rescued my own stray kittens, spent time on Greek farms surrounded by dogs and cats, and later fostered and rescued three cats and a dog in the US. Over the years, I’ve become the go-to pet sitter for family and friends, caring for pets of all ages and needs, including my own elderly dog and cat, who I cared for in their golden years. Losing them in the last two years was heartbreaking, but it has only deepened my love and appreciation for animals. I have so much love and time to give to your pets! I work remotely from home, so your pet will have constant companionship, care, and attention throughout the day. Whether they need frequent potty breaks, regular walks, playtime, or just someone to snuggle with. I live in a pet-friendly, walkable neighborhood with easy access to parks and walking trails. My home has a large, fenced grassy yard, perfect for playtime. For senior doggies or those with mobility issues, I even have a pet stroller to make sure they can enjoy walks comfortably. I’d love to meet you and your furry family and want to be a person that you can depend on to feel safe and trusting with your fur baby. My schedule is generally flexible, and I work from home so I can be with the fur babies all day and take them on multiple walks. I keep a very calm and serene environment in my home and make sure to spend a ton of time outside with the doggies enjoying the backyard. For house sitting I ensure to follow the owner”s instructions and rules so their pet feels most comfortable and I am very tidy and respectful of their space.


“Tobie had another wonderful stay with Michelle and Mandar. They have a great set up with a yard to play in and he gets lots of love and cuddles. I really appreciated the photo and video updates that Michelle sent throughout the day. They are a very nice family and they show lots of care and attention to the pups that stay with them. We look forward to a return visit!”


“My first impression in meeting Shai (I liked this nickname of his, not sure if I spelled it right) was that, he had such a warm and kind energy about him. He made me feel at ease leaving my puppy with him. I had so much anxiety that whole day since this was my first time leaving my puppy (5months) alone with a stranger. She is usually accompanied with her bestie/roommate when someone else dog sits for us. I am very new to Rover. I was sent a lot of photos of her and her environment throughout the night which made me feel reassured that she is in a good spot. We even chatted for a bit when I picked her up and he gave lots of great advice. I am definitely going to be a returning client!”


About: You can say I was raised by a pack of dogs. My family ran a Boxer Rescue organization through our home while being active members of the Easy Bay Boxer Club. I helped rehabilitate, train and care for Boxers of all ages. My family also bred and showed Boxers. I had a Boxer of my own in college and worked in a dog grooming salon as well. I've been the go-to sitter for many of friends who have pets. My dog Mendo and I have also lived with cats and fostered cats so happy to hang with the feline friends. I have also fostered and helped find forever homes for puppies through Alameda Animal Shelter. To sum it up, I have a lifetime of experience with a big heart for all animals. About me, I am a working professional but work from home most days. I am healthy and active so there's no dog I can't walk and play with! I work from home most days and can dictate my schedule around pets. I wake up by 8am and go to bed by 10pm so my hours are very consistent. I have a fenced yard that the dogs can go in and out of freely. My dog and I got out on walks and/ dog park at least 2x a day.

“Teetouch and family are such kind and calm people! Our dogs immediately felt comfortable with them. They have a large play area just for dogs and our little pack enjoyed running and playing there with them. We got plenty of pics and video and definitely will book with them again!”

She also cared for my own dog on numerous occasions, including staying at my home for 2 weeks. As a very reliable responsible person I trust her implicitly; she possesses a calm, caring and patient demeanor. My dog adored her. I would recommend her as an animal caregiver without hesitation.

Lilly provided great care and comfort to my pet during his stay with her. She asked for all the details about my pet and his preferences, she also made every accomodation to ensure he had a safe and comfortable stay. She sent us photo updates and communicated often with great and detailed updates. Thank you Lilly, I felt very comfortable leaving my fur baby with you

Kenneth cared for our Rottweiler mix, Tahoe, on a last minute request! He was very knowledge and we instantly knew we could trust him with our rescue. He clearly understands dogs and loves them. He sent us updates and Tahoe enjoyed his time out in the patio & getting to know Maze. Reliable and truly caring!

This was my 1.5 year old pup's first time being watched by someone other than family, and Sally was the perfect first getaway! She is calm, responsive, flexible, and communicated throughout Piper's first day. Piper was happy and relaxed when I picked her up. I'll ask Sally to watch her again!

Chanakarn and Jakree had been sitting our dog Socks for a couple of years now. We’re happy with their service. They are always around which is assuring given that our dog has separation anxiety issues. They always share pictures and updates frequently throughout the boarding. Highly recommend them.

Athena is great! Rockee is always excited to see her in the morning, and I appreciate her flexibility with my work schedule and open communication. She’s also been helping with Rockee’s reactivity and I’ve noticed a calmer demeanor when he’s around other dogs. Thank you Athena!

Kaitlyn was great- responsive, flexible in scheduling a meet and greet and our dog seemed to take to her right away. She walked our dog several time throughout the day and gave several updates, including pictures. I would definitely recommend Kaitlyn and hope to book her for doggy day care again.

Teetouch took such good care of our four month old puppy, Carby! It was our first time leaving him in someone else’s care since we adopted him so we were nervous pet parents, but he was in the best possible care with Teetouch. We received lots of pictures, video, and updates. It was clear that Carby got lots of love and care while we were away.

Abigail was so kind and reassuring with our 10 week old puppy. I was a little nervous as a new dog mom to use a puppy-sitter and Abigail was above and beyond a great first experience. She is very patient, has years of experience, and cared for our puppy as though she were her own. It is clear she has a special love and gift for animals. We are very grateful to meet you Abigail and we will be booking again in addition to referring you to our friends. Thank you!
