“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!”

“Toon was incredible! First off I booked him with less than a days notice for a 6:30 drop off and he was happy to accommodate us.

“Angel was such a wonderful sitter, and a complete lifesaver! We needed care last minute and she was available. For our first time using Rover, I could not have asked for such a wonderful person. I'm so grateful for her constant communication and reassurance that our Tempi was doing good. Highly recommend her! And if available would love to continue having Tempi stay with her.”
About: Take care of dogs part time for friends for many years. I have formed special bonds with them and love to see their excitement when they come over. No one throws a party for you when you get home like a dog. I love training puppies and taking them for walks and playing with them as well. I work/consult from home, occasionally need to leave for a couple hours to go to the gym or the store. I’m pretty active and like to go on daily walks. I’m willing to come over and take your dog out for a walk if they are comfortable with me doing so. If you’re able to bring the dogs to my home for an extended stay, I will provide a loving safe environment for them, with frequent potty breaks and one to two long walks per day. I’ll follow your instructions on what is best for your pet.
“Faye was great! Our dog Zuma spent the day with her. She sent us photos throughout the day and kept his posted on how he’s doing. We are excited to have her watch Zuma again for an upcoming trip!”
“Jenny was great with my two pups, Chewy and Lumi. They've spent time overnight while I work and it's such a comfort knowing they're well cared for. She gave me updates on how they were doing and they seemed very happy when I picked them up in the morning.”

“Tamara is great! She is very knowledgeable about dogs, and clearly gets to know each dog in her care as an individual. We'll definitely be doing doggy daycare with her again soon!”
“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!”
“Brittany was really nice and our dog Burt seemed to do really well with her! At drop off he just went right with her! He got a few walks in and got along with Brittany's dog Basco. Burt generally prefers chill-er companions and it seems like Basco was that. Would definitely return to Brittany for future care.”
“Chad took excellent care of my young and energetic greyhound with a lot of separation anxiety. When I picked her up she was happy and excited, but she didn’t show any signs of distress. Prior to my dog’s stay at his home Chad had invited us over for a meet&greet and he took a lot of time to inquire about my dog’s character and behaviors, which made me very confident that things would be alright. Chad was also willing to accommodated my travel schedule. I am happy with the experience and hope he will be available next time I have to go out of town.”
“Baxter had a great day with Kim and her human and dog crew. :) She sent pics with fun commentary several times (much appreciated -- especially on the first day!. Baxter was wiped out in the evening after a day of play. Kim is clearly a pro at dog care. She was very engaged in our meet and greet and asked lots of good questions. She's very pleasant to chat with and communicates proactively. Looking forward to Baxter's next stay!”
About: I've grown up with dogs and cats my whole life! I've recently adopted a new cat, Beef, who is a darling. I have experience birthing and raising puppies. I love bringing my dogs for walks, hikes, runs and playing fetch. I'm always active because I'm a college athlete. I'll make sure to take great care of your family animals while you're away and provide them lots of love, attention and activity! I'm a college student home for the summer, taking online summer classes. I have plenty of time to care for animals! I stay very active throughout the day so I have the capacity to walk, run and play with the animals. I'm able to be very attentive with animals because I'm close to home often. I have two fenced yards with plenty of room for dogs! Lots of toys, balls, extra leashes and bowls! I have dogs of my own that can either be socialized or separated from your pets. I live near a park and like to take the dogs out.
About: I have over twenty years of experience in caring for and living with: small to large puppies, energetic pooches, elderly grouches, special needs pups, multiple dogs at once, kittens, and elderly cats. I understand that all dogs and cats have different needs and different personalities and am enthusiastic about helping your baby live it's best life by getting the exercise and love it needs. It is very important to me that owners ensure their animals are receiving the care and attention they need, and I am happy to be a part of that equation for your and your family. Pets bring so much joy to the world and I hope I can bring the same happiness to your fur baby as they will bring to me. Thank you for choosing me to spend time with your special family member! I work from home throughout the week, and I can take your dog on walks, to parks, to outdoor social meets, etc. throughout the day. I can come hang out with your kitty, and play and love on them as much as they will allow! :) Animals that stay in my home are allowed on furniture and chill get all the cuddles and play they desire! I also have two kitties that are very friendly with dogs.

Tamara was very accommodating for a last mintue reservation. We appreciated her flexibility. Calliope takes a little extra care to win her over--Tamara did an excellent job. Tamara's pup Sidney got along great with our pups. I would highly recommend her she is warm and caring and knows her stuff when it comes to dogs.
Amber helped me by watching my two little doggies for back to back 12 hour days! My sitter at my departure city fell through and I had to bring my doggies to the SF area, but had nonstop events where I couldn’t have the dogs. She was a life saver! She was super communicative and nice. A great experience.
Julia is awesome. I'm looking forward to the next time she can care for our pup. She went above and beyond when I had a few snafus in my day before dropping my dog off, took the dog for a spectacular walk, and then gave me a fantastic dinner spot recommendation.
I was visiting from out of town and needed someone to watch my dog. I met Cindy and her husband and they were so friendly and accommodating. I ended up leaving my dog bowie with them for several hours. He was in a great mood when I returned and I knew he had a good time. He played with 2 other dogs and went on a long walk. I will definitely book with Cindy when I am in town again. I know I wont have to worry about bowie. They did a great job!
She was amazing! Very responsive and kind. I can tell that she is calm and gentle with animals. My dog Lilo had an amazing time spending the day with her and came home exhausted both times. They had a lot of fun together, and Lilo was very well taken care of. I highly recommend her!
Jeremy gave so much focused attention to my Beagle Simon! Jeremy went above and beyond to take him on potty breaks and find the best toys for Simon to play with. After pickup, when we got into the car and all the way home Simon was smiling way more than normal—says it all, 5 stars!
Angel is an amazing pet sitter! She sent me plenty of photos and updates, which gave me great peace of mind. She was also very accommodating with last-minute changes, which I really appreciated. I would definitely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for reliable pet care.
It was last minute searching for a dog sitter. Dacyl responded my request pretty quickly and invited my dogs to meet her dog before I decided. She was very sweet with Jet and Luna and sent me several photos and messages. They had a great time with her. Thank you, Dacyl!
