“Jordan is excellent! Great communication and always lets my sometimes nervous/timid pup lead the way! Will definitely keep using Jordan for walks and pet care!”

“Grateful for Rongrong for stepping in at the last minute for a drop in visit in the morning 🌻 for Tanzi 🐈⬛ and Baba 🐈. Rongrong checked in on the kitties, took photos of the kitties and made sure they had their breakfast and treats.”
“Wonderful. I felt so secure knowing you were taking care of my dog, especially with him being senior. Thank you for giving me peace of mind. Will definitely rebook”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was a small child, and have been primary caregiver to a cat, dog or both for 25+ years. I’ve fostered dogs and cats, cared for strays and worked in Trap Neuter Return programs for feral cats, rehabilitated formerly feral dogs and cats, parented senior dogs and cats with a higher degree of needs such as insulin or medication. I’m a laid off tech exec, so I have a ton of spare time right now and love Dogs and Cats. My partner and I share one dog and two senior cats at home, and I’m looking to help + meet more pets :) Since I already have a dog and two senior cats at home I can’t bring your babies to my house, but I drive a smart car which means I can get and park anywhere in San Francisco to feed, spend time with, and walk your pets.
“Martin and Robert were great! They came on time and spent the entire half hour playing with our two pups, sent photo updates and let us know both pups did their business. Will absolutely reach out to them in the near future. Highly recommend!”
“Veronica was great with my two cats, Theo and Remy, and was very respectful of my home. They both took to her right from when she entered the home…and, I’m sure they look forward to the next time Veronica takes care of them again. I’ll be sure to rebook!”
“Christina was a great cat sitter for Slim Charles, sending detailed updates on her visits with him, spending time to keep him company while I was away, and also sending great pictures. I definitely intend to book Christina again the next time I’m in need of a pet sitter!”
“Christopher was fantastic! Really communicative and took great care of our dog when she was recovering from surgery. Couldn’t recommend more!”

“Louise is fantastic. She administered insulin to our little Juliette. She did a meet and greet and was very prompt (which is critical for insulin). We highly recommend Louise!”

About: Hi, fellow pet parent! If you're looking for someone who truly understands and loves animals, you've come to the right place. With a lifelong passion for animals, I've cared for pets of all breeds and sizes since childhood, and I now have a wonderful 3 year old dog of my own. My experience spans raising and training puppies, working with reactive dogs using only positive reinforcement, and meeting any special pet needs with ease. I offer long daily walks or hikes in parks or on the beach, ensuring your pet enjoys plenty of fresh air and exercise. In my single-family home, dogs are treated like family, with access to the entire space, including a fenced deck for safe outdoor time as well as a fenced front yard for frequent potty breaks. Your pet will always be in safe hands, surrounded by love and good company. My sense of responsibility, deep love for animals, and flexible schedule (with my husband's and my flexible schedules, your pet will never be alone) ensure that your furry family member will have the best care and attention.
“Anjali is the best. She helped us over the holidays by checking on Riley a couple of times for a walk and dinner. We have no worries when Riley is in Anjali's care. Thank you!”
“My bunnies love Leanne! She was timely, thorough, and considerate-even doing little extras like filling their hay toys and taking out the recycling. So lovely, she is now my go-to pet sitter! ❤️”
About: May 26th - August 26th, 2025: SoCal based I love pets and I really want to help out! I have experience with dogs, cats, hamsters, and many other exotic animals. Taking care of dogs always makes me happy, and I already love to get exercise and walk around my area, so it's a win-win scenario! I’ve had my fair share of playing with puppies and caring for senior dogs who deserve some rest. I enjoy the company of any dog and I cannot wait to meet yours. During the summer, I am free 24/7 in SoCal. After mid-August, the school year starts, in which I am a full-time student studying to become a teacher in NorCal. As a result, during the semester (August-May) my availability changes drastically. I always make sure to carry out any instructions given to me super carefully, and I always send detailed updates that put owners at ease. I understand how important these critters and our homes are to us, so I know to handle them with the utmost care and respect.
“Carissa took great care of Marley!”
“Mick was a great drop in cat sitter. He was quick and responsive and always punctual. Our cats take a while to warm up to people so they didn't develop a close bond with Mick. However, the important thing is they were well fed and energetic when we came back from vacation.”
About: I adore dogs with pure souls and treat them as family. Providing this service isn't just a job - it's a pleasure to care for your dog and ease your responsabilities. I have a part-time job and family commitments, so I appreciate a flexible schedule, Dog care is something I truly enjoy and can easily integrate into my routine. Im very aware of my surroundings when walking dogs, always making sure they feel safe and confortable . I pay close attention to potential triggers, like large dogs that might startle them or if theyre getting too close to the street. Im also very good at reading non verbal cues, undestanding what a dog needs in the moment.
