“Polina is great! So sweet with my super shy puppy and even stayed longer than planned to get him comfortable with her. She’s very communicative and showed up right on time. We hope she’ll come back again!”

“Yue Yue (Sammy) was very flexible in accommodating my last minute request to drop in for my car for 4th of July weekend! She followed all instructions and updated the care cards with lots of details. Looking forward to having her watch my cat again next time!”

“Olesia is the best! Our puppy was so happy to play and go on walks with her while we were out of town. She always showed up right on time and is an excellent communicator. Thank you, Olesia!”

“Kaki was fantastic. She was thorough, warm, and sent really detailed updates every visit, which made a huge difference - I felt completely secure leaving my cats with her. One of my cats is on multiple medications and not exactly cooperative about it, and Kaki handled that with no issues. My other cat, who sometimes takes a bit to warm up, took to her right away and got plenty of playtime in. Would absolutely book her again and recommend her without hesitation.”

“Carolyn is so great with our lab Morty! She’s always very responsive and is flexible with last minute requests and changes! Will always keep her at the top of our list!”


“Andreya has been an incredible care taker of my elderly cat. She’s been so responsive, left detailed updates and pictures while I’ve been away. This was the longest trip away and her communication has made it even more relaxing knowing Lizzie is in good hands. Will for sure be using her services again in the future!”

“When I met Joslyn I instantly felt her warm and positive energy. She went above and beyond taking care of my cat Flora. It was not an easy job because Flora has experienced extreme trauma and she is an elderly cat. Where others would have given up, Joslyn was patient and not intimidated by Flora’s stressed demeanor. She took her time and slowly took the necessary steps to ensure she received the care she needed. I appreciated the videos and photos she took during each visit. She even brought in our mail and packages while we were away. I highly recommend her and plan on connecting with her in the future if I need cat sitting.”

“We cannot thank Hannah enough for the incredible care she provided for our two cats over 15 days. One of our cats fell very sick right before our trip—he was lethargic, malnourished, and required daily medication and a special ointment for his ears. We were so worried about leaving him, but Hannah put us completely at ease. When we returned, our sick cat was like a different animal—he had gained weight, was active, and clearly felt much better. It’s clear that Hannah went above and beyond to ensure he received his medication and care with patience and love. On top of that, our cats are messy eaters, but when we came home, the apartment was spotless. Hannah even cleaned the bathroom and kitchen, which we greatly appreciated. Hannah’s dedication, professionalism, and genuine love for animals shine through in everything she does. We couldn’t have asked for a better caregiver, and we will definitely be booking her again in the future. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!”


“Thanks Natalie for being so flexible and doing walks and visits! Natalie helped out when my usual dog walker was on vacation for a few weeks. Consistent and great communication.”

About: Hi, I'm Femke. A lifelong animal lover, I’ve been the go-to pet sitter and dog walker for friends, family, and neighbors for almost a decade. What started as a hobby quickly became something I couldn’t imagine not doing. Now, I’m excited to turn my passion for dogs into a full-time career, preparing for a degree in Cynology (dog behavior) next year. With hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments, I’ve developed a calm, patient, and intuitive approach. I’ve walked high-energy pups who need structure and stimulation, cared for seniors who require slower walks and medication, and provided companionship to anxious or shy dogs who just need someone gentle and understanding. I’m confident in handling leash reactivity, administering basic medications, and keeping routines consistent to help dogs feel safe and secure. My focus is always on building trust, so your dog feels comfortable with me, and fully enjoys the time we spend together. I’m studying part-time to prepare for my Cynology (dog behavior) degree next year, and have no other major commitments - your dog gets my full attention. My days revolve around walks, drop-ins, and overnight stays, so I’m available on weekdays, weekends, and (most) holidays. Your pet’s safety is my top priority. I take the time to build trust with each dog, starting with a meet-and-greet to understand their routines, triggers, and preferences. During walks, I always use secure leashes and harnesses and stick to safe, familiar routes. I will not do off-leash unless in client-approved spaces and with your explicit consent. When caring for pets in your home, I maintain your routines, respect your space, and provide real-time updates with photos and notes, so you’re always in the loop. My goal is to give you peace of mind and give your dog(s) the care and companionship they deserve.
About: Hi I'm Mollie and I would love to care for your fur baby! I currently have a 5yo black cat and have had a dog in the past! I'm comfortable with pets with special needs, kittens and puppies and all the extra care that they require (accidents, teething, etc)! I love exploring neighborhoods and walking to the park, so it would be fun to have a companion! I just finished up grad school and am still searching for a full-time job, so my schedule is pretty flexible right now. ( don't have the restrictions of a typical 9-5). I'm happy to meet up and talk before to learn the rules of the house, your pet's routine, and what they need to feel comfortable.

About: Dogs have been a huge part of my life, and I understand how important it is to find someone you genuinely trust with your pet. I also have experience caring for a dog with fear based aggression and anxiety. I worked closely with our veterinarian and a behavioral specialist, including medication management, 1:1 training and learning how to recognize triggers and help him feel safe. That experience taught me the importance of patience, consistency and meeting each dog exactly where they are. I work from home full-time, which allows me to provide plenty of attention, regular walks, playtime and companionship throughout the day. I’m comfortable following detailed feeding, medication and care routines, and I’ll treat your dog with the same love and attention I’ve always given my own. I work from home full-time, so pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine. I’m typically up around 6am and am available for morning walks, midday breaks, playtime, meals, and evening walks. Since I’m home throughout the day, I can provide plenty of companionship and adjust to your dog’s usual schedule and needs. As a registered nurse, I’m naturally attentive to details, changes in behavior, routines, and overall wellbeing. I’m comfortable following detailed care instructions, including feeding schedules, medications, activity restrictions, and behavioral needs. I also have experience caring for anxious and fear-reactive dogs and pay close attention to body language and comfort levels. My home has a private, fully fenced outdoor patio, which gives dogs a secure space to get fresh air and relax between walks. Pets are welcome to settle in wherever they feel most comfortable, and my goal is to provide a calm, safe, loving environment that feels like home.

About: I have owned cats throughout my life and took great care of them. I have been sitting cats while my friends were away on many occasions. I work remotely on a flexible schedule so I have plenty of time. I prefer to work within 1-2 mile radius around Nob Hill SF I respect your house rules and am attentive to detail. I am passionate about helping animals especially when they miss their owners. I am a cat owner myself.
About: I have had a dog for the past 13 years and have years of experience pet sitting and dog walking. As a pet mom myself I understand how important it is to have the peace of mind that your fur baby is being loved on, paid attention to, and taken care of well. Whether it’s on a walk, a drop in visit, whatever you need your pet will be my first priority, your fur baby will be in good hands with me! I have an extremely flexible schedule and can accommodate drop in visits and walks through the week days as well as weekends. I’m here to accommodate your schedule as best as I can! Your pets safety is of the upmost importance to me. As a pet mom myself I understand these babies are your world and will always take care of keeping them safe whether that’s out on walks, returning to a crate back at home, taking precautions for pets who like to bolt, etc. they will be in good hands!
About: As a calm and dependable caregiver, I’ve successfully helped two Chihuahuas and an Australian Blue Heeler peacefully coexist in one home. If I can manage that dynamic with patience, care, and consistency, your pet will be in great hands. I currently work from home while running my own cosmetics company, which gives me a highly flexible schedule and allows me to provide attentive, reliable, and consistent care for your pets throughout the day to late evenings. I believe pets thrive when they’re given both attention and healthy outlets for their energy. For dogs, I enjoy taking them on walks, park visits, and play sessions tailored to their comfort level and their owner’s preferences. If appropriate and approved, I’m comfortable supervising off leash time in safe fenced areas or open parks with well behaved pets. For cats, I make sure they receive patience, affection, and interactive play time so they stay stimulated, relaxed, and comfortable while their owner is away. My goal is always to help pets feel safe, cared for, and well rested by the time their family returns home.

Olesia i so fantastic. This was my third time having her sit with Cocoa Bella. You can really see how much she loves dogs. Cocoa Bella hates to be left alone and she was so happy to see Olesia. I knew she really loved having her here. I will 100% use her next time I'm in town and would 100% recommend her to sit with your dog too.

Tyler is the best! He is super attentive and engaged with our baby cat while we are away! He sends daily updates with tons of photos to ease the nerves of the parents and I truly feel assured to have Tyler looking after him. Thanks again for taking such great care of our cat!

Shihua was amazing with my cat, I was away for two weeks and felt like he was in great hands with her! She sent amazing and detailed updates, and my cat who is normally very shy took a liking to her immediately. Will definitely reach out to Shihua next time I need someone to look after my kitty!

Callie has been amazing since I booked with her. This time, she was able to give medicine to my cat Seaweed without any issues. Additionally she took care of my packages while I am away. She also followed the instructions precisely. I recommend booking with Callie!

Daniel was great with taking care of our cat, Whitney Houston. He kept us informed throughout our time away with plenty of pictures. Whitney Houston loved the attention he gave her both in pets and playtime (I'm sure the feeding helped, too.) Will definitely hire Daniel again when Whitney Houston needs a sitter in the future!
