Regina did a great job taking care of our elder dog and two kittens. It was a huge relief to know that they were all being cared for and loved on while we were away from home. I got pics and updates every day and came home to three very contented and relaxed pets. It was clear they had all been very comfortable with Regina. She left my place perfectly neat, and was easy to communicate with throughout. I would highly recommend her services and will definitely be hiring her again whenever we have need and she is available.

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!

Malcom is the best! He came to meet my dogs before actually sitting for them. I have one dog that is not always the most accepting of new people in the house.. Malcom knew exactly how to patiently act around the house and soon he had my dog eating out of his hands… :) He did everything I asked. I also have 3 pet chickens and Malcom was great with them! Simply an overall professional, friendly guy with lots of integrity!!!! 5 stars!

About: I have always taken the task of pet sitting for the pets in my neighborhood. I have recently moved to SF and am missing this connection dearly. I will care for your pets with the up most respect to your expectations and keep them entertained as well! I hope you give me the chance to meet your amazing dogs! I a currently attending school on Mondays and Thursdays but I am available for the rest of the week! I work remotely so I am able to stay with the pets for longer periods of time. I would get myself well acquainted with any crates or backyards that I am going to be accessing in order to ensure a smooth transition for the furry friends. I also can scope out nearby parks and routes that would be the best for the dogs in advance so that we are both safe on our adventures.

About: I have professional experience working as a dog groomer, where I provided attentive and high-quality care to a variety of dog breeds. My responsibilities included bathing, drying, styling, and ensuring each pet’s health, comfort, and safety throughout the grooming process. I’m skilled at managing dogs with different temperaments, including those with anxiety, and I always prioritize creating a calm, positive experience. Pet care fits well into my daily schedule because I have open availability during the weekdays and am also available on weekend evenings. This flexibility allows me to accommodate a variety of pet care needs, whether it's daily walks, feeding routines, drop-in visits, or overnight care. I’m able to dedicate focused time to each pet to ensure they receive the attention, care, and companionship they need. I provide pet care in my client’s home, where pets feel most comfortable and secure in their familiar environment. I follow any specific instructions provided—whether it’s feeding schedules, walking routines, medication, or playtime—to ensure consistency and minimize stress for the pet. I’m respectful of the home space, keep everything clean and organized, and make sure the pet feels safe, engaged, and cared for while their owner is away. My goal is to maintain the same level of care and comfort pets are used to, if not better.

About: I bring a calm, caring presence and years of hands-on experience with dogs of all ages, breeds, and temperaments. What sets me apart is my attention to detail and ability to quickly build trust with both pets and their people. I’ve worked with everything from energetic puppies who need structure and play, to senior dogs who need gentle care, patience, and medication support. I’m highly reliable, communicative, and treat every pet as if they were my own. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I have a flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets consistent attention, regular walks, and lots of companionship throughout the day. Whether it’s starting the morning with a walk, mid day playtime, or a cozy wind down in the evening, I genuinely enjoy building that rhythm with each pet. Caring for animals doesn’t feel like a job, it’s something I look forward to every day. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat their space with the utmost respect and prioritize clear communication. I follow instructions carefully and keep things consistent to help pets feel secure. Whether it’s administering medication, sticking to a specific feeding schedule, or handling quirky behaviors, I’m attentive, responsible, and always aim to go above and beyond

About: I enjoy outdoor activities, especially walking rather than running, and I love bringing your dog with me on those adventures. Even if zoomies are on the menu, watching ducks is welcome too. With my schedule suddenly wide open after today, pet care has actually become a welcome anchor to my day. Without the structure of work, having a dog creates natural rhythm - morning walks, feeding times, and those afternoon adventures we might not have had time for before. Right now, I'm thinking this could be an opportunity to really focus on my four-legged companion's needs in ways I couldn't when I was tied to a work schedule. Those longer hiking trails I've been wanting to explore, training sessions we've put off, or just more quality time outdoors together - suddenly it's all possible. The daily walks will probably become the backbone of my routine while I figure out what's next. There's something grounding about having a creature depend on you for their exercise and care, especially during a transition like this. It keeps you moving forward, literally and figuratively. I'm curious to see how this change affects our bond too. More time together might mean discovering new trails, new parks, maybe even new activities we both enjoy. It's one of those silver linings - unemployment is stressful, but at least my walking partner is going to get the adventure-filled days they deserve. While dog walking is my main thing, I'm open to overnight stays once we've all gotten comfortable with each other - whether that's having your furry friend come stay at my place or me staying at yours. I really believe in building genuine relationships with both pets and their families. Every dog is different, and I take time to learn their personality, their favorite spots to sniff, whether they're social butterflies or prefer quieter walks. It's so rewarding when you see that moment a dog starts getting excited because they recognize you! For overnight care, trust is everything. I only offer this after we've built that bond through regular walks and both you and your dog feel completely comfortable with me. Some dogs do better in their own space with all their familiar smells and routines, while others love the adventure of a "sleepover" somewhere new. The best part about being newly available is that I can really focus on each dog's needs without rushing. Whether it's a leisurely morning walk, playing in the yard, or just being a calm presence while you're away, I'm here for whatever makes your pup happiest and gives you peace of mind. I always keep you updated with photos and messages so you know your furry family member is having a great time and is in loving hands!

I had the pleasure of working with Seng for several months, and I can confidently say she is the best in the business. Her dedication to the well-being and happiness of my furry companion was remarkable. My dog, Maya, absolutely adored her daily walks, and I could see the positive impact it had on her overall demeanor. Seng is not just a walker but a true friend to our four-legged family member. I highly recommend her service to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog walker.

I have 2 cats and they are used to the routine we have in place. So I was quite nervous to have someone come and take care of them when I was on vacation with family. The aspect that made me more comfortable with the situation, was how Shania kept constant communication so that I knew what was going on at all times. She gave me daily updates after I expressed my nervousness which made me so glad. Having that daily reassurance was amazing and I have gone back to her for any trip since then.

Jenn watched my two cats (my first time away!), Jodeci and Mister Sheffield, and she was everything I hoped for: caring, reliable, and professional. I felt completely at peace being away, which means everything as a cat mom. She sent regular photo and video updates (without having to ask) and it was clear my boys were not only well cared for but totally comfortable with her. Jenn also treated my home with care, followed every instruction, and even went above and beyond to tidy up. I trusted her completely and would rebook her in a heartbeat!!

I always keep you updated with photos and messages so you know your furry family member is having a great time and is in loving hands!
