1. Liz F.
“We have a fearful senior rescue dog with a complicated history, and Liz has been great about doing an initial meet-and-great and then an extended drop-in to spend time with our dog alone. She very much understands how to interact with a fearful dog who needs time to feel trusting. Her experience as the guardian of a rescue dog herself definitely comes into play. She was punctual, cheerful, and generous-minded, and we really appreciate her willingness to work with Penny! We will definitely use her again.”
2. Jennifer L.
“Jennifer and her husband have done a fantastic job caring for our kitty! We’ve hired them 3 times. They have been so diligent with her care and followed our instructions. Our super shy kitty even came out to play with them, which she rarely does with strangers!”
3. Malia K.
“Amazing care!! Malia is an awesome resource!! So grateful for the love & care she provides to Baby Love. Will continue to rehire her!!”
4. Shelly M.
“Shelly took care of our cat for about a week while we were out of town, and was a wonderful sitter! We'd gladly book with her again, thanks for all your help Shelly!”
5. Madeline K.
“Madeline was a total delight and was so great to work with! We were able to meet ahead of time to go through details of what our kitties needed. Madeline was prompt, professional, and communicative thought the time we were gone. We got lots of updates and photos, and everything was in great condition when we got back. Our cats seemed very happy. We are so appreciative of Madeline’s care and will definitely rebook in the future!”
6. Theresa K.
“Theresa is a very responsible and reliable pet caregiver. She has taken care of my two dogs multiple times when I’ve been out of town and have never had any issues. My dogs are always excited to see her!”
7. Laura J.

10. Jesse S.
About: I got my first German Shepherd 5 years ago and another one 3 years ago. I've always loved dogs and after becoming an adult the first thing I did was get me a new bestfriend. I am currently work from home and volume is low so I have plenty of time to take care of your dog! Our current schedule with my dogs are 3-4 walks a day. 1 Long walk in the morning, 2 quick afternoon outside sessions and 1 long evening walk. I have 2 friendly German Shepherds and 4 cats. They all get along and theres no issues in the house. We have a time out room we utilize when there might be too much stimulation so everyone can take a break and we have an outside area with turf where we can all just sit and relax as well.
11. Kaitlyn D.
“Kaitlyn was great with my very social cat Haggis while I was away. She came to my place twice a day to feed and hang out with him, and make sure he got the attention/affection that he needed. I will definitely book Kaitlyn again.”
12. Laura B.
“Laura is the best, she makes my life work and is part of my tiny family. My kitties love her and she takes the work really seriously. Great communication and 100% calm and confidence when I need to leave town. So grateful!”
13. Samantha P.
“Samantha is awesome! She gave daily updates on how my pup was doing and gave him great care while staying over! Sam is extremely trustworthy and I highly recommend her as your sitter!”
14. Maria Elena V.
“I have two dogs and two cats and they are a handful. They are picky about their food and do not normally warm up to people easily. I left on a vacation and Maria Elena was hired to feed them, walk them and take care of them. She was so loving with them. They love her! I will always hire her for my pets.”
15. Matt S.
About: I'm a lifelong lover of animals, and I grew up with several cats and dogs, as well as having experience with hedgehogs and rats. I have immense patience in situations that require a calm environment for training, de-escalation, etc. Proud parent of a 3 year old pitbull mix rescue. I'm primarily a theatre, film, and voiceover artist, so my schedule is very flexible during the day for all kinds of jobs, including pet care. My dog has a fear of other dogs, which we're working on through a trainer, so I keep her on a leash whenever we're outside of the home. For clients, whatever is most comfortable for them is my top priority.
16. Diana G.
“Diana is a great pet sitter! She has sat for me before and took amazing care of my Molly. She is responsible and reliable definitely someone you can trust with your pets.”
17. Michelle F.
About: I have trained a few dogs, both low activiity and those with high drive. There are few breeds I can't work with. Safety is paramount but the goal is to have fun! I am a Burner and get it. I am around this holiday weekend, West Oakland. Longer-term is the easiest, but day sitting or walking works well. I work at home and have time to care for both dogs and cats, other pets welcome but sorry no pitbulls or agressive breeds. I have a fence yard, although I have an apartment. I like to bring the pets with me when I leave the house. But have the flexibility to focus on one pet. So no agressive bread, including no pitbulls.
18. John M.
“John was very timely and good with Hudson. He was very receptive to our information and instructions on Hudson’s behavioral needs. Would 10/10 recommend him to walk your doggie!”
19. Emilia M.
“Emilia was very patient with our needy/moody cat while we were away! We got detailed reports and lots of photos every day, so we slept well knowing he was well cared for.”
20. Angela H.
About: I’ve got experience taking care of all kinds of animals for most of my life. From getting my first dog at age 4, to growing up with everything from dogs and cats, to snakes, rats, chinchillas, rabbits, fish, frogs and chickens. I was also a vet tech for 15 years. I have extensive experience with both domestic and exotic pets (I can give a list if you ask), and can care for special needs animals including administering medications, giving shots and performing minor medical treatments. I look forward to caring for your pet as if it were my own. I’m currently working from home so I have plenty of time to care for your pet. I’m a genuine animal lover so your pet will be well taken care of. Pets both in and out of my home are treated like family. They will get all the care they need. From feeding, walking, and basic care, to any other specialized care needed.
