“Martha is so communicative and great with our dog. She respects his boundaries and does a great job making him feel comfortable. He loves her patio!”


“Ava and Goodwin took such great care of my anxious pup, Waffles! They asked all the right questions and sent photos and updates throughout the day. He immediately settled when we got home, which tells me he had a great time (not always the case when I've picked him up from daycare). I'm so happy to have found them in the neighborhood and will definitely be booking again!”


“Katrina was great! She sent pictures and updates throughout the day, and when I picked my little guy up he was happy and wagging!”

“Leo was great and Murphy came home happy and tired!”

“Shelley was great with Ghost! I don't think our dog missed us at all for the day. She was kind enough to take Ghost on an adventure to meet a new dog friend and took great care when unexpected things came up. Sent many photos and videos! We really appreciate the care and attentiveness.”


About: I’ve grown up with cats and I have one myself. I live in Russian Hill and work from home and I’m able to stop by whenever and wherever for a quick visit or overnight stay. I prefer to meet briefly over video before the day arrives. I work from home Monday through Friday at 8 AM to 4 PM but I can also stop in for lunchtime if you are nearby Russian Hill. If you’d like me to come for a longer stay, then I can bring my laptop and work from your apartment so that your pet has some company for a longer period of time. I love pets and I can provide lots of flexibility to you when it comes to cancellation and last-minute bookings. I am so appreciative glad you are willing to trust me and taking care of your little loved ones. I promise that I will treat them as if they were my own. I could not live my life without pets- the mutual love and support they provide and supported me my whole life. I am so happy to find this service where I can conveniently check in on loved pets easily with my flexible schedule. I’m typically open to saying a bit longer than the allotted time if able. I am open to sharing cat food so please let me know if you need some and I will bring it. :)

“Anton is the best! He & his dog, Azul always keep my dog Iggy so busy he's exhausted when I pick him up. Thank you always for being such a great sitter. We will definitely book you again, so Iggy has a bunch of play dates with Azul ... and you of course!”


About: I’m basically your dog’s SF tour guide and snuggle buddy in one. 🐾 With 20+ years loving dogs of all ages and sizes, from playful pups to sweet seniors (my last dog lived to 15!), I know how to keep tails wagging. I live in a pup paradise with 14 parks within 2 blocks, plus I’ll snap Instagram-worthy shots in front of the Transamerica Building, Ferry Building, and all the SF bay-side classics. Your dog isn’t just getting care – they’re getting a mini vacation with their new BFF. Pet care is my daily routine. 🐾 I work from home and have a super flexible schedule, so I’m always around for walks, playtime, potty breaks, and plenty of snuggles. Living in SF’s dog paradise with 14 parks within 2 blocks, pups get outdoor adventures anytime they want. Whether it’s early morning strolls or midday cuddle breaks, dogs come first in my day. Simply put – your dog will never feel like they’re just “being watched.” They’re part of my life. Safety and trust come first. At my home, dogs are treated like family. I dog-proof all areas, keep hazards out of reach, and provide comfy spots to relax. If your pup loves to sunbathe, they’ll adore my lovely fenced-in balcony with warm sunshine and cool bay breezes – it’s their personal relaxation deck! I live in a safe, dog-friendly SF building near 14 parks, so walks and potty breaks are easy and secure. On walks, I use strong leashes, check gear, and stay alert to keep your pup safe. In your home, I always follow your routine, double-check doors and gates, and respect your space so your dog feels calm and cared for.

“Gaby was so great! She spent extra time with Mushu to get him acclimated and I really appreciated that given how antsy Mushu can get. She took Mushu out on many potty breaks and let him roam around which I know Mushu really enjoyed. She kept me updated throughout the day and was respectful of my time. Her communication was great. I definitely recommend Gaby and will use her again!”


“I booked Shanice on very short notice so there was no chance for a meet and greet with my puppy Nico. I took a chance on her based her previous reviews. Nico was at her doggy daycare for 2 days. She is super sweet and friendly. Most of all she adored my puppy. He had a good time with her and her fur baby. She sent me updates on Nico with pictures of his day. Nico was happy when he was dropped off and happy when I picked him up. That is always a good sign. I will definitely book Shanice again!”


“Ezekiel and his wonderful family took incredible care of our high energy pup! They sent pictures and updates about halfway through his stay, and we now have a happy and tired pup at home. We can't wait for our boy to stay with Ezekiel again! Would 100% recommend.”


“Will definitely use Isabel again! She’s responsible, responsive, and reliable!”


About: Grew up with dogs of various ages and breeds, including a boxer, rottweiler, doberman, and jack russell terrier. Most recently lost our buddy, Morton, our salt & pepper miniature schnauzer of 15 years. Our toddler also loves all kinds of animals, especially dogs. He is very gentle and mellow, and would love to have another dog around to take on walks and play with. There will always be 1 or 2 adults working from home to be with and walk the dog. Any pet in our care would never be alone! We also live in a very dog-friendly neighborhood and have many green spaces and parks nearby. As long-time owners of dogs of various ages from puppy to senior, we understand the needs of pets. Our most recent pup, Morton, was 15 years old when he passed, but required a special diet and care for several years before the end of his life. We only watch one dog at a time to make sure your pup receives our full attention and care. While our toddler loves dogs and pets, it is also important that any pet in our care is comfortable with young children. If you are unsure how your dog will behave around young kids, please consider other sitters. We do not want to risk the safety of our child or the comfort of your pet. Our apartment is best suited for dogs 30lbs and under. Please help us ensure your pet has the best stay by bringing their preferred bed, water bowl, toy(s), treats, food, and whatever else your pet needs to be comfortable in it's home away from home.

“Victoria is incredible! I’ve booked multiple day care and boarding appointments with her; my dog loves spending time with her and her dog Lu. Victoria is very responsive, responsible, patient, and provides regular updates and pics before you even need to ask! I trust my dog is well cared for with her - he always perks up when he sees her! I feel so lucky that I have Victoria that I can rely on and trust whenever my dog needs short or long term care. I can’t say enough great things. Thank you, Victoria! (And Lu!).”


“Andrea and Michael were so accommodating while watching my 6 month old puppy (and she can be quite the handful!). Will definitely be booking again when I need her taken care of :)”

Doribel M.
“What superlatives can't I use when describing Doribel's empathetic character, strong work ethic, and compassion with animals of all breeds. I have known her over a decade now since I first moved to San Francisco and not only can I call her an outstanding friend but she has been such a pinnacle part of my pets. Whether it was just meeting up with us to hang out or taking care of them while I was away, she was always just a phone call away. It is with a heavy heart to say that her own beloved Chips is no longer with us but his memory and love of him will never falter. You and your pet would be missing out by skipping over her. Do your household a favor and bring your pet into her life. You won't regret it.”
