Sean is amazing! He is very communicative and is very punctual with his timing. I have him walk my pup 3 times a week and she always looks forward to her walks with him. I would definitely recommend him! He’s very reliable, flexible with scheduling and whatever your needs are for your pet. Thank you so much Sean for all you do! I definitely recommend him for any of your pet needs 🙂

Our dog warmed up to Spencer quickly and was completely comfortable with going out on a walk from the get-go. I'm thankful Spencer was available on short notice and pleasant to work with. Highly recommend!

Varun is a responsible, thoughtful and communicative dog sitter. Varun has watched my dog, lily during many of my travels and it gives me so much peace of mind to know that she is in a safe and caring environment. Lily gets excited to see Varun everytime and she also loves to hang out with his wife and their dog. It’s like a vacation for her and she thoroughly enjoys it! His place is also in a safe neighborhood and has a fully fenced in yard for playtime. I have always had a positive experience leaving my dog with Varun and I am so appreciative of him for taking care of my pup like his own.

About: Puppies are my specialty. I have raised over 20 puppies for multiple service dog organizations as well as fostering for a few different rescues. With my experience as a veterinary technician I am very familiar with the care of older pets and those with special needs. I also have almost 20 years of experience walking dogs for other people. I currently work full time but mostly swings shifts 3pm -11pm, so I am available before 3pm while most people are at work. I am also available for late night visits if needed. I treat every client's pet as I would my own. Creating a positive relationship with the animals I work with is most important to me.

About: As a lifelong dog owner with experience in caring for a variety of breeds, I'm passionate about providing loving, attentive care. My home features a large backyard with grass, and your dog will enjoy daily walks and plenty of playtime with my children. Conveniently located near SFO airport, I also offer pick-ups upon request. Your dog will feel right at home while you're away! Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine. I prioritize daily walks and outdoor play, ensuring each dog gets plenty of exercise and attention. I do not work outside of the home and I am able to be present majority of the day with your pet, allowing me to be available to provide personalized care, including any special needs or preferences. I have a large fenced backyard and the dogs love our grass. My neighborhood is very walkable, and we'll ensure your pet has as many walks and exercise as needed daily!

About: I have grown up around dogs my entire life, and I love them, a lot. I have lots of love to give and will care for your dog like my own. I know how important pets are to a family and will do my utmost to maintain the love and care your provide your pet everyday. I am a college student and currently home for the summer. I will be leaving to go back to school in late-August. I am free for most of the summer and will be taking a class at home via zoom on Tuesdays and Thursdays starting early June. I have a fenced in yard and a large backyard for your dog to run around! I do have a dog at home but she is very kind and will mediate interactions appropriately. I have lived in this area my entire life and am very comfortable with the area. I have my own car but would sincerely appreciate it if you could provide your own crate.

William went above and beyond, providing frequent updates and cute photos that reassured me my dog was in good hands. His attention to detail and reliability kept me stress-free. I provided him with a list of dog-sitting notes, including allergens, vet information, and habits for the many weeks I was on a trip. My dog was well taken care of, and I could tell they enjoyed their time with William. I could not have asked for a better dog sitter.
