2. Yue Yue W.


“Sammy is fantastic! She’s a great communicator and took really good care of my boy Viking, even offering a meet and greet before the sitting appointment. I look forward to working with her again!!”


3. Yaeri L.

“Kristina did a great job taking care of lyla! She followed all instructions, took plenty of pictures, and was very communicative during her visit.”


4. Jessica H.

“Jessica was fantastic! We arranged for her to do some 1 hour drop in visits. She was very responsive and easy to coordinate with. She came by around a week before the first session to meet our cat and go through everything that needed to be done. She was very friendly, asked great questions, understood quickly what needed to be done, and was very respectful of the rules of our place. Our kitten also warmed up to her quite quickly over her visits, which was great. She provided a nice detailed report from each of her visits as well as some nice pictures, and everything went really well. I would highly recommend Jessica and we'd go with her again!”


5. Davis S.
“Davis has taken care of our cats numerous times, and is always very caring and loving. She is a True Animal Lover. She is also very organized and neat, so always keeps things tidy and organized.”


6. Zhoujue W.
“To whom it may concern, I’m so happy to recommend my friend Rebecca as a pet caregiver. She’s one of the most thoughtful and dedicated animal lovers I know. Rebecca has two cats and a dog of her own, and she treats them like family. One of her cats has diabetes, and she’s become incredibly skilled at giving insulin injections calmly and correctly—something that really shows how responsible and caring she is. She believes every animal deserves daily exercise and attention, and she’s always mindful of what each pet needs emotionally and physically. I’ve seen her adjust her walking style depending on whether a dog is shy, energetic, or just in a goofy mood. It’s clear she takes the time to understand every animal she works with. Anyone would be lucky to have Rebecca care for their pet. She’s loving, trustworthy, and truly passionate about animals. Sincerely, A friend of Rebecca’s”

“Thank you!! Loved the updates and pics from your time with Mia”


8. Fabiola O.
“I am pleased to highly recommend Fabiola Osorio, who was in charge of my pet’s daily walks for a period of one and a half years. Throughout that time, Fabiola proved to be a responsible, punctual, and extremely reliable person. She always treated my pet with kindness, respect, and patience, showing a true love for animals. She made sure to maintain a consistent routine of daily walks and playtime, forming a genuine bond with my pet. Additionally, she gave me peace of mind by keeping me informed about my pet’s well-being, sharing details about their walks. I have no doubt that Fabiola will be an excellent caregiver for any pet, and I am sure that other pet owners will appreciate her dedication as much as I do”


9. Cynthia G.
“I can’t say enough great things about Cynthia and the amazing care she provided for my dog. From the moment we met, it was clear that she genuinely loves animals and takes her responsibility seriously. She was incredibly attentive to my dog’s needs, routines, and personality, and made sure every detail was taken care of from feeding and walks to playtime and comfort. What really stood out was how caring and thoughtful she was. She took the time to get to know my dog, made sure he felt safe and loved, and she kept me updated with regular messages and photos, and videos. Which gave me total peace of mind while I was away. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, compassionate, and dedicated pet caregiver”


10. Youngju S.
“Youngju absolutely adores animals- you can trust that any pet will be treated gently and with love. She will treat them as her own and both will enjoy spending time with each other.”


11. Victoria L.
“I have seen how much love and care Victoria gives her kitten since the day she brought her home. She's handled everything on her own-feeding, playtime, litter training, vet visits, even flea treatments-with so much patience and attention. Her kitten is clearly happy and well care for. Before getting her own cat, she was always the go-to person for friends who needed help watching their pets. She is someone who takes pet care seriously, but also really enjoys it. I would trust her with any cat, and I know others would too.”


12. Ariana M.


“Ariana was so wonderful! She took great care of our picky cats and left us feeling stress free. So thankful to have the cats taken care of. Thank you!!!”


13. Salinda K.
About: Hi! I'm a lifelong dog lover with a calm, gentle presence that dogs naturally gravitate toward. I have experience caring for senior pups and shy or nervous dogs, and I understand how to be patient and respectful of their unique personalities and needs. I've volunteered at the SF SPCA, where I learned to work with dogs of all ages and temperaments, including those needing extra care, attention, or space. Whether your dog is outgoing or a little timid, I’m here to make sure they feel safe, loved, and at ease while you're away. I rescued a 12-year-old Chihuahua mixed back in 2020. He was timid and shy but we eventually bonded and he became as healthy and energetic as a puppy! We spent 5 years together visiting parks, multiple road trips and loads of treats and cuddles. He’s now in doggy heaven and I miss having dogs in my life. I’ll take care of your fur baby! I work full-time on weekdays but I am available full-time for your dogs Friday evening to Sunday night. Pet care day would consist of multiple potty breaks, indoor playing sessions, walks or park visits. I will not leave your dog alone without your permission. I live alone and no other pets or animals. Your dog will be on leash when outside. I can also use your crate if preferred.


14. Elric N.

“Elric is thoughtful and an absolute professional. Took care of my precious cat, plants, and home while I was gone. Couldn’t have asked for more!”

17. Zoe K.
“Zoey is wonderful with animals. She helped care for our dog. Zoey went above and beyond to walk our dog as he got older he was slower but she ensure our sweet boy got he’s walk arounds. Our pup loved when Zoey came to take him out. I would highly recommend Zoey.”


18. Sarine P.

“Sarine has been so incredible and trustworthy. My pup and I are moving out of SF and will definitely miss her, she has been the best dog walker we’ve had. Thank you, Sarine!”


19. Elena V.

“Elena was awesome dropping in and taking care of my animals. I certainly have a scaredy cat at home but Elena really took her time trying to make a connection so my cat felt safe. Really appreciated her help and would be happy to book with her again!!”


20. Eric C.


“Eric was great! He took care of our two cats for 10 days. Accepted on short notice too! Sent us (hilarious) videos of our cats every morning. We got to see him coax our shy cat out from under the bed, get jealous over how much love our not-shy cat was giving him, etc. Highly recommend :)”
