“Heleen was professional and very pleasant to work with. She wrote thorough updates, outlining each visit and provided pictures of her visits. I knew my cat was in very good hands and I could relax on my vacation. I will definitely hire Heleen again in the future.”
“Karina arrived on time, was sweet to bring in our packages that were left outside, played with my pups and cat, took pictures of them, and let me know if they peed/pooped. Thanks Karina!!”
“Emmy went above and beyond to take care of our adult cat and our two foster kittens. She was extremely communicative, and took time to send detailed updates of all three cats and pictures of them playing. She kindly helped clean up after our two foster kittens when they had accidents in the first couple of days, and also looked after them after they got spayed and neutered. We came home to three very happy cats, so we can't recommend Emmy enough and will definitely be rebooking her in the future.”
“Peter is a great sitter to our 2 shy cats - reliable, communicative, friendly, and we always come home to 2 happy well taken care of cats. We will continue to use his services . Thank you Peter!!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs over 50 years since childhood. As a retired doctor, I understand health and behavior well. Neighbors and friends often trust me with walking, feeding, and caring for their pets, knowing they’re in safe and loving hands. As a retired doctor, I now enjoy a peaceful life with a flexible schedule. I’m home most days and would love to spend time walking, playing, and caring for your dogs. I’m available throughout the week, including weekends and holidays. My home is quiet and pet-friendly, with a secure backyard and plenty of space. I focus on safety, comfort, and calm interaction. Your pet will have my full attention, and I can easily handle special needs or medication if required.
About: I’ve cared for pets my whole life, from energetic puppies and curious kittens to senior dogs and cats who just want some extra love. Every pet has their own personality, and I make it my priority to keep them happy, safe, and comfortable. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or quiet cuddles, I’ll treat your furry family member like my own. My Availability: Weekday Availability: I live in the Bay Area Peninsula and work full-time in San Francisco, Monday through Friday. I’m usually out of the house by 7:30–8:00 AM and get home around 6:00–7:00 PM on weekdays. Weekend Availability: I’m off on Saturdays and Sundays, and my schedule is more flexible depending on any prior plans I might have. If you have specific dates or times in mind, feel free to reach out. I’m always happy to see if we can make it work! When I’m caring for pets, their safety, comfort, and happiness always come first. Whether in my home or yours, I make sure the space is clean, cozy, and safe for them to relax and play. I stick to their usual routines and give them plenty of love and attention, so they feel comfortable and cared for. Every pet deserves to feel like family, and I treat them that way.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs ever since I was 8 years old. I’ve owned multiple dogs my whole life and they are my favorite animals. My neighbors and friends trust me to take care of their pets when they are away. I’m currently working a very flexible part time job, so I have plenty of time to hangout and take care of my dog and other dogs. I am also very athletic and am always going on runs with my dog. I have a medium sized fenced in backyard and a 6 year old playful lab to keep your pup company. The bay trail is right behind my house so taking the dogs on walks is super safe!

About: I've loved animals my whole life and have cared for dogs and cats of all ages, from playful puppies to sweet senior pets. I'm patient, gentle, and pay close attention to each pet's unique needs. Whether it’s giving belly rubs, slow walks for older pups, or active playtime for energetic dogs, I adjust to what makes them happiest. I’m reliable, communicative, and treat every pet like they’re my own. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I genuinely love spending time with animals. I’m currently very flexible, especially on evenings and weekends. Whether it's a quick check-in, feeding, or playtime I’ll make sure your pet gets consistent, loving care. I always prioritize each pet’s safety, comfort, and routine. In your home, I make sure to follow your instructions closely—whether that’s feeding schedules, walk times, or special care needs. I keep a calm, clean environment and give pets lots of attention and affection while respecting their space. I also stay in touch with regular updates and photos so you always know your pet is happy and safe. If I ever have a question or notice something unusual, I’ll reach out right away.
“Amanda took care of my cat Butters for 6 days. Each day I got a wonderful update on her wellness and wonderful pictures to match. I will most definitely have Amanda back to care for my cat.”
About: I grew up with dogs and am very comfortable caring for them. I have spent the last 10 years dogsitting/catsitting for friends and neighbors when they travel. I'm an active person and can adjust my sitter responsibilities according to your dog's needs and activity level, whether that means playing fetch, going on a hike, or a slow walk around the neighborhood. I'm happy to accommodate specific instructions or circumstances to make sure your dog is happy and entertained while under my care. I love dogs of all sizes and personalities and am looking forward to meeting some new pups! I work from home primarily and have a flexible schedule throughout the day, especially midday if walks or potty breaks are needed during business hours. All pets and owners are different so I will always defer to a given household's rules for their pet regarding commands, treats, do's and don'ts, and routines.
About: I've been taking care of pets since I was young. Had a dog when I was in high school and recently adopted a dog about a year ago. I am patient and will make sure your dog gets the care they need. I work remotely and love spending time around animals because it just brings me great joy. I currently have a 5 y/o Jindo rescue, but I would love to watch and take care of more animals:) Depending on the service, I will not let your dog out unleashed and will read your instructions carefully to make sure your dog is well looked after. For cats, I will follow the owner’s instructions and ensure that the cat is well cared for.
“Vivian was excellent with our two dogs. One of our dogs is shy, while the other is outgoing, and she did a great job engaging both and making them feel comfortable while we were gone. She was communicative and prompt. We felt very comfortable while our dogs were in Vivian's care and we will definitely re-book with her again in the future.”
About: I grew up with a golden retriever for 10 years back in LA and I have been doing Rover for two years. I recently quit my job to do dog-sitting full time. You can entrust me as someone who is extremely responsible, punctual and communicative. I will take care of your dog like my own dog! My schedule is super flexible! I can pet sit from 9am to 10pm. I usually wake up around 8-9am and immediately take the pet out, then I take the pet for a long walk in the early afternoon and another walk around 7-8pm before bed time I currently live in a single family house with a big backyard in a quiet neighborhood full of trees and grass. I can easily walk the dog anytime
