About: I've loved animals for years and understand how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pet in someone else's care. I'm attentive, gentle, and dependable, and I take the time to learn each pet's personality, routines, and preferences. I'm happy to help with feeding, walks, playtime, companionship, and keeping your pet comfortable and happy. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, loved, and well cared for while giving their owners peace of mind. As a law student, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to plan my time around pet care. I'm happy to welcome pets into my routine throughout the week, including weekends, and I prioritize making sure each pet receives plenty of attention, care, and affection. I aim to maintain their usual routines while balancing my studies, so your pet feels comfortable, safe, and loved! Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are always my priorities. I take the time to understand each pet's needs, routines, and personality so I can provide attentive, personalized care. I maintain a clean, calm, and safe environment, follow feeding and care instructions carefully, and make sure pets have plenty of affection, playtime, and supervision. I also respect each owner's home and keep them updated so they can feel confident that their beloved pet is in good hands.

“Jes was great caring for our elderly cat while we were away on a camping trip. Good communication and updates, we'd definitely work with Jes again!”

“Rachel (Yeon Soo) did a wonderful job caring for my senior cat who requires daily medication. She took the time to give her lots of love and sent great photos and updates. I won't hesitate to hire her again!”

About: I've been around dogs my whole life and rescued my own fur baby 5 years ago. I watch dogs for friends and family all the time and genuinely love having them around. I love that every dog has their own personality, and I'm happy to meet them where they're at, whether they're playful and outgoing or a little shy and need some space. I'm no replacement for their favorite human, but I hope to give them a friendly, warm, low-stress environment where they can feel comfortable and cared for while you're away. 🐾 I'm currently working part time so I have a very flexible schedule. I'm available most week days all day, Saturdays all day and Sunday evenings. I have a car so can easily drop in for a visit or walk and pick up/drop off your pet. I live in a condo with my partner and a little Pomeranian named Romeo. I don't have a yard but live in a super walkable neighborhood with some parks nearby. I love staying active and driving to a trail/park from time to time to take a little hike.

About: I cared for my own senior dog before he passed and understand how important patience, consistency, and routine are for pets. I’m experienced with regular walks, slower-paced outings, feeding routines, potty breaks, and keeping pets calm and comfortable. I’m also attentive to details like medication timing and following owner instructions closely. I’m especially comfortable with adult and senior dogs who benefit from a calm, reliable presence. I currently work on a flexible, self-directed schedule from home while writing a book, which allows me to be available for weekday walks and drop-in visits. I’m especially able to help with midday, afternoon, and early evening visits, and I’m happy to work with pet parents on consistent recurring routines when schedules align. I cared for my own senior dog before he passed (a 17+ year Corgi/Dachshund mix. I miss him so much!), so I understand how important patience, consistency, and attention to detail can be. I’m comfortable with regular walks, slower pacing, feeding routines, and making sure medications are given on time when instructed. In a client’s home, I follow their directions closely, keep pets calm and comfortable, and make sure doors, leashes, food, water, and any special instructions are handled carefully.

“My kitties were happier than can be! Beth is incredibly friendly, very responsive to all messages, and so accommodating. 1000% recommend and we plan to use her every time we go away if she’s available!”

About: From small breeds to large breeds, I've taken care of dogs since adopting our first family dog in 2001. Currently a dog dad to an 11-year-old cattle dog mix named Mia who brings joy to my life! Will treat your dog with the care I give my own. Pet care fits into my routine daily, having my own dog named Mia. We go for walks three times a day and I live plenty of time in my schedule to give her the love she deserves! Will care for your dog within your guidelines and what you establish is the best approach. I'm an experienced dog owner myself and can give your pet the attention they deserve!

“Aleja is an amazing pet sitter! Barnaby loves her - she is super responsive and keeps me posted about how he’s doing. She often goes beyond what is required of her to make sure he is comfortable. For example - she cut his nails for him though I never asked her to. She also builds a connection and is really well suited to care for pets! Could not recommend her enough.”

“Stephanie was a wonderful sitter for my cat. She was responsible, responsive, and communicative throughout her time watching my cat. She provided daily updates and made sure to ask questions when needed to ensure my cat was cared for well. I would have Stephanie cat sit again for me!”

“Cassandra did such a great job dropping in on my puppy, Rosie. She fed her dinner, played with her, and made sure she had a chance to potty. Her communication and photos were great. I will definitely hire her again!”

“Rong is fantastic! She’s taken care of my kitty a couple of times now and always does a great job. She’s been super accommodating to last minute schedule changes, and is always kind and thorough. My cat loves her and I feel so much better leaving knowing Rong is watching her!”

“Patrice is absolutely amazing!! She was attentive, punctual, and had great communication with us while we were on vacation. She even brought over dog-safe bubbles for our dog Elly, which was so cute and thoughtful! We felt completely comfortable and safe leaving Elly in her care.”

About: I have taken care of pets almost my whole life. We always had 2 dogs growing up and were consistently surrounded by more regularly. I house sat and dog sat regularly since middle school and now into adulthood. I am working part time and have a very flexible schedule currently. Can accommodate changes and am willing to make your pets a priority when needed. I always treat pets as if they were my own with care and affection. There is nothing better than a house critter to come home to and feel their unconditional love, and it’s important to me to make them feel comforted and loved back.

“Communicative and attentive.”

About: I’ve been caring for animals for 14 years, and having my own pets taught me about understanding their body language and unique personalities. In the past years I’ve pet sat both cats and dogs and have loved forming special bonds with each one, many of which I’ll never forget. Dogs: I enjoy bringing dogs happiness by taking them on adventures, hikes, and exploring new places, so they can fill their lifetime with good experiences. I also connect with their playful spirit and know how to make dogs super happy. When I watched my friend's dog Spresso, I delighted in bringing her to new places. We ran at beaches and played tag in rock playgrounds! If felt like she was living her best life, and by the end it felt like she was one of my best friends. Cats: I just like to chill with them, love on them, play with them, and slowly build an interesting relationship with them! Cats go at a slower pace and I respect animal boundaries, even if they can’t speak verbal language!! I’m currently working part-time and my schedule is flexible and fluid. I’m open to overnight pet sitting that lasts 2 weeks or more, as I find it a fun way to get to know different neighborhoods! I'll make sure to take care of your place like I would my own, because a life-long principle of mine is to take care of other people’s things, especially when I’m in other people’s spaces, with the utmost care and responsibility.

About: I have a two year old family dog at home who I love! In addition to taking care of her, I’ve been trusted to look after pets and homes of friends, families, and people in my community especially over the last two years. I’ve taken care of dogs from puppies to seniors, as well as multiple dogs/animals at a time. As an athlete I love to be active, I love to clean, and as a recent graduate from UC Berkeley, I have high availability and can be an attentive reliable person for your care. I work a flexible part time job, so I will be available every weekday morning and most afternoons to check in on your pets! I can check in every couple of hours during weekdays and weekends and am fully available some week days (Mondays and Fridays) for your pet care. In my home, I have a friendly two year old dog who loves to play! I have a small outdoor area that is fenced off for fresh air and a very pet friendly apartment. I love to keep my spaces clean and would love to do the same for you! I have experience caring for puppies and older dogs who need extra attention and care, as well as experience caring for multiple dogs at once.

“Shelly help me out of a jamb as i landed in the hospital with no one to look after my cat. She went out of her way to make a last minute request not a worry for me. I can't recommend her enough as a pet sitter, an absolute gem!”

Karim K.

“Overall, Tia was great! She communicates well and responds promptly to messages. She clearly loves animals and they love her. Added bonus: she can be counted on to handle missteps professionally. I would use her service again.”

About: People say I have good animal karma, and I have over 25 years of experience caring for dogs and cats. I have lived with pets since before I could walk, and learned to understand their body language and needs from a young age. These days I'm a student without pets of my own, but I love caring for clients' fur babies and befriending every cat and dog I meet! I have experience with puppies, multiple dogs in the home, mixed dog/cat households, and aging dogs. I have some experience in treat-based and clicker training methods so I can maintain your training standards. Just fill me in on your pet and I will personally tailor their care so they have the best experience. I also love to flex my background in art and design and snap (nearly) professional-level photos of pets for owners as keepsakes of our time together. I'm more than happy to integrate photo and video updates into our time together. I can't wait for you to reach out so I can make a new friend! 🐶🐱 I'm currently a full-time student from home, and a typical day with me is filled with love, play, and enrichment. I pay attention to their unique personalities and always make sure they feel safe, entertained, and cared for. Your dog or cat will have plenty of exercise, attention, and cuddles, while cats will get gentle playtime and affection at their pace. With many years of experience caring for both cats and dogs, I understand how important it is to follow your instructions exactly and to make your pet feel safe and happy. Friends often trust me to house sit their pets, and I always make sure they feel loved, played with, walked, and even lightly trained if needed. Your pet’s comfort and well-being will always be my top priority. Finding the right approach is always key!
