“Even if your senior dog has a poopy blowout upon arrival, Claire will field it with grace and humor! We are so grateful for her continued care of our three girls!”
“Kristina was lovely to interact with, punctual, and took good care of our doggy at our house. She sent us lots of photo updates and eased our minds about leaving our dog, who has some quirks, with a sitter. She’s experienced and our dog liked her immediately. We will definitely have her back and recommend her to other pet owners.”
“Margarita took amazing care of Nala and the apartment! She was very professional and easy to communicate with, and took very excellent care of Nala and was mindful of helping ease her anxiety. Thank you!!”
“Sammy was available for me when I was on call on a holiday weekend and was extremely flexible when I had to make slight changes to the booking. She was extremely sweet with my dog Kota. Highly recommend, and will be reaching out again in the future if I need sitting!”
“Giselle took wonderful care of Nala! I felt very comfortable leaving Nala in her care and knew she was in great hands. She sent lots of pictures and updates, and took great care of the apartment as well. Thank you!”
“Alex was absolutely wonderful with my cat! I had a family event days after my cat had to have surgery but I felt confident leaving her with Alex. They cuddled and hung out all day and Alex administered medication. Also very easy communication!”
“Paulette took such great update pics of Hank while we were away for a weekend trip for a wedding. He is always so happy when Paulette takes care of him. I recommend Paulette to all friends who want a trustworthy sitter.”
“5 stars and Lots of appreciation for Nicole! Highest recommendations for her work because she’s a great communicator, entirely reliable and wonderful with animals. Upon meeting her, my picky dog glued himself to Nicole: in my view this says So Much. I’d consider myself lucky to hand my home and pup over to Nicole’s care again, anytime!”
“Tami had a GREAT connection with Lucy. She quickly figured out Lucy's personality, her likes/dislikes, favorite activities (going to the beach) and also the ins and outs of my apartment and building. Tami did a wonderful job of sending me pictures at least twice a day so that I could feel at peace that my girl was happy and being taken good care of.”
“Joe dog sat with us for 4 days at our home. We met him up earlier to make sure he and Nala were a good fit. Throughout our trip, he was kind, reliable, and responsive. We are so happy to have had him. Nala did great with him!”
“Viv did a great job taking care of my chocolate lab while I was out of town for 10 days. I received tons of photo updates, and she had taken my dog to several different parks.”
“Aoife watched my home, my dog and my cat for a week. She was conscientious, attentive and communicative. And my animals loved her! I would definitely hire her again and I would highly recommend her to other pet parents. Thanks Aoife!”
“Brittany was great! She followed instructions perfectly and my cat and dog both seemed really comfortable around her. I came home to a nice clean apartment. Would definitely book again!”
About: I’ve cared for pets my whole life - dogs, cats, ferrets, pigs, you name it! I genuinely love getting to know each pet’s unique personality and making sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for. Since I’m currently in between jobs, I have the flexibility to provide everything from long neighborhood walks and playtime to overnight stays, weekend care, or adventurous hikes depending on your pet’s energy level! I live in a pet-friendly apartment across from Golden Gate Park and have a car, so I’m happy to take your pet to the park, the beach, or even the redwoods for some fresh air and fun!
“Akiko has been wonderful both as a dog walker and house sitter for our dog and cat. She was super attentive, asked questions leading up to her stay, and was super communicative- sending all the pictures and videos during our time away. This helped reassure us we left our pets in great hands. We can’t wait to have her back the next time we travel.”
“Thanks, Abigail for watching Clover over the weekend. She followed his schedule, sent lots of pictures and videos and kept our apartment clean and tidy. She also asked a lot of questions which was great. Would book again!”
“Caroline takes wonderful care of Nala, and of the apartment as well! Nala has a lot of anxiety but is very at ease with Caroline and Caroline helps her stay calm throughout the day.”

Eleanor S.
“Ellie is truly the best cat sitter we could ask for! She’s watched our two cats, Fiji and Goose, many times and always goes above and beyond to make sure they’re happy, safe, and loved. One of our cats can be a little shy with new people, but she warmed up to Ellie right away—and now both of them are totally obsessed with her! She sends regular updates (often with adorable photos), keeps the house spotless, and gives us complete peace of mind while we're away. Whether it’s a weekend trip or a longer vacation, we always feel 100% confident leaving our home and our pets in her care. We can’t recommend Ellie enough!”
