“Claudia has been great with our dogs! She is really patient especially with our younger dog who can be skittish with strangers. She really takes the time to understand instructions and gives regular updates and sends pictures and videos!”

About: I have 3+ years of hands-on experience caring for my two cats, and I regularly look after a friend’s Shiba Inu for about a month each year. I’m a native Mandarin Chinese speaker and fluent in English. 欢迎全程使用中文沟通,包括见面了解、照护说明和每次服务后的照片与情况更新。 I’m comfortable with feeding, refreshing water, cleaning litter boxes, walks, playtime, and following detailed care routines. Living with a shy cat has taught me to be patient, read pets’ body language, and let them approach at their own pace. I pay close attention to changes in appetite, energy, behavior, and litter box habits. I’ll also provide clear photo updates so you can feel confident that your pet is safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I currently have a flexible schedule and can provide drop-in visits and dog walks on weekdays and weekends, including mornings, afternoons, and evenings. I limit my daily bookings so I can arrive on time, follow each pet’s routine carefully, and give every pet my full attention. I keep my Rover calendar updated and appreciate at least one day’s notice from new clients so we have time to confirm care instructions and arrange a Meet & Greet when needed. I care for pets in the comfort of their own home and follow each owner’s instructions closely. Before the first booking, I prefer a Meet & Greet to review feeding, water, litter boxes, walking routines, home access, emergency contacts, and any health or behavioral needs. During every visit, I make sure doors and gates are secure, keep dogs leashed outdoors, avoid interactions with unfamiliar animals, and respect your home. I also send photos and detailed updates about your pet’s food, water, bathroom habits, energy, and behavior.
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: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I remember. I enjoy being around animals and treat every pet with the same care and attention I would want for my own. I'm currently working part-time, so I have a lot of time to walk and take care of your pets. I am available more often during the week. I don't have any pets of my own at the moment, so I will be fully focused on your pet. I’m patient and attentive, and I understand that every dog has their own personality, habits, and boundaries.

“Peter was great! He was so good with Norman and he sent me lots of photos. When he came for our original meet and greet, he was right on time and so personable! I will definitely use him again!”

“Lauri is absolutely amazing with our anxious rescue Piper. From the very first meet-and-greet where she showed up in bright colored leggings so that Piper could identify her, to her very patient steps to build trust and rapport with our pup and each family member (even remembering career paths and school trips!), Lauri is nothing but pure heart, sincerity, and kindness. This particular neighborhood walk turned into last minute daycare on our mutual continual conversations, when we all could see Piper coming out of her shell. One of Lauri’s many great talents is being able to discern the limits of our Piper — when to challenge her and when to give her space — and this gift has been rewarded with Piper welcoming Lauri with a greater speed than she ever has anyone else. We are thrilled to have found Lauri and know that she will be folded into our village for years to come.”

About: I've had 8 dogs in my lifetime since I was a kid. As an adult I was able to have my dogs potty trained and listening to commands by the time they were 3 months old. I love dogs but my husband is a cat person. I'm currently working 4 days a week and found that I want to do something that brings me joy and activity. I would love to have pets of my own but unable to at this time. I am able to walk and care for pets anytime after my full time work or on my days off. My apartment is pet friendly, has a big grass area within the complex, and easy access to the cemented bay trail that goes from the park next door to Foster City.
About: Hi, i'm Jessica! I have grown up in the Bay Area and with dogs my whole life. I grew up with both dogs and cats and have always loved both, but keep a special place in my heart for for dogs. I understand that every dog is unique, needing someone such as myself to tend to their specific needs. I have experience with all breeds and sizes of dogs and help you keep them occupied while you're busy. I have a huge heart for animals and can ensure you that I will keep your dog safe, healthy and happy. I will treat your dog with love and care and I will also make sure you get the best possible experience out of Rover! I am currently taking some classes in San Francisco on Tuesday and Thursday mornings. That is all I am obligated to go to currently with my schedule. I can easily crate your dog if needed or whichever method you use at home. Dogs are allowed on the couches and beds unless you would prefer otherwise.
About: Taking care of dogs started for me with my wonderful and energetic Airedale in my teens and twenties, and continues as a dedicated uncle to my sister’s 4 dogs (yes 4!). I am the guy my friends consistently ask to pet sit when they leave town. I also take pride in leaving your house as nice as when arrived. For long stays or short, I’m happy to help. I do love senior doggies, but I’m not able to provide round-the-clock type care for dogs with serious mobility issues or dementia symptoms. I am currently working part time nearby and I am not planning holiday travel, so I’ll have plenty of time for quality visits with your dogs! Your pets and your home environment are important to you. I will exercise the utmost care with both and make sure you feel comfortable entrusting me with either or both.
“Thank you so much Deborah! You were right on time which is very appreciated with my schedule. I can tell that Moose loved her walk and was perfectly tired out when she got back. Thank you for refreshing food and water as well. I know I’ll be in touch soon.”

About: I have experience taking care of a variety of small and medium sized dogs, including my neighbor’s elderly dog who required consistent attention and administration of medication. I enjoy going on walks and will be sure to give any dog the attention and care they need! My schedule is very flexible. I work remotely most days so am able to look after the dog throughout the day and take it outside as needed. I prioritize your pet’s comfort, safety, and routine by understanding each pet’s needs and maintaining a calm and respectful presence. I am happy to follow any specific instructions in your home as well.
“Doug is a fabulous dog walker/runner! My large energetic dog LOVES him, and my family trusts Doug 100%. Mature, responsible, experienced, reliable. He really cares about our dog and returns him safe, happy, and tired! Very grateful for his help.”

“This gal rocks ! I she is kind and considerate she has saved my life . She had zero introduction with my dog who is a tyrant . And made friends with her in 10 mins and had her out walking the first day ! I typically don’t trust anyone with my little girl .. Amanda I trust 100 percent ! Thank you !”

About: Pets are humanizing. They remind us of our obligation and responsibility to preserve and care for all life - James Cromwell As a child I spent summers on a farm and have always been connected to nature & animals. My first pet was a chicken at 7yrs old and had cats my whole life, even throughout college! My first dog was a female Shelted Sheepdogs (sheltie) then we got her a brother a year later. What fun sweet memories and joy having them growing up. Humans can learn a lot from our pets, their unconditional love & playfulness. Caring for animals is a privilege. Similar to raising children (I have two teens) and requires lots of awareness, love, patience, attention to detail, and kindness. Safety is always priority number one I work an office job from 8a-5p during the week and am available for pet care after hours, early mornings, and on the weekends. If a client is near my office or home I’m able to visit sooner. I live in a nice neighborhood near a great park and walking trails. My home is safe, organized, clean with fenced yard and two pets (dog & cat) to keep your fur baby company. If your pet is crate-trained I can support that too.
About: I’ve helped many friends and family take care of their dogs while they’re away. I have experience with both small and large dogs with different personalities, including puppies under 10 months old. I am patient, attentive, and responsible. No children or pets are present in my home, and I take only dogs from one household at a time, so you can rest assured your babies will be safe, comfortable, and receive ample attention. I let dogs roam free in my home as long as they’re well-behaved, although I prefer you bringing a crate in case your dog experiences separation anxiety in a new environment. I work from home, so I have plenty of time and flexibility to play with your dog and provide frequent potty breaks and walks. I’m home most of the day except for a few hours going to the gym, running errands, etc. My home is large and spacious, with an attached/fenced balcony so your dog can get some fresh air whenever they want to. There is also a grassy dog play area right downstairs so I can take your dog potty or play outside quite frequently.

Traci came highly recommended, and those recommendations did not let me down! She was quick to respond, kind, reliable, and took wonderful care of Bruno. I felt completely comfortable knowing he was in great hands. I would absolutely recommend Traci to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to look after their dog!

Emily is wonderful! Was able to feed finicky Elsie, played plenty of ball, and was extraordinarily flexible with my scheduling and emergency that came up! Emily also kindly accommodated for my mobility issues. Grateful to have met Emily and would love to book her again

Kathleen walked our dog Benji, and it was such a great experience from start to finish. She gave him so much genuine attention and care throughout — you can really tell she loves animals. Kathleen is very communicative and sent us lots of photos so we always knew Benji was having fun. Benji always came back to us as the happiest dog, clearly worn out from a great time with her. We felt at ease knowing he was in her hands, and we'd recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy to take care of their pet.

Almarah was a great help on our latest trip! She was punctual, reliable, and very attentive to our dog while we were out of town. She kept us updated with thoughtful details and made us feel comfortable knowing our dog was in good hands. She was caring, responsible, and easy to communicate with throughout the entire stay. I would absolutely book her again!

Rumi may have found her new favorite person in Lizbeth! Rumi is still a puppy and she can sometimes be a bit distracted while on walks. With Lizbeth, however, loose leash walking around the neighborhood wasn't a problem at all, even with skateboarders nearby and leaves blowing in the wind (her absolute favorite thing to lunge at). Lizbeth was communicative, prompt, and from the big smile Rumi had after she came home from her walk, you could just tell that Lizbeth has a special way with dogs. We absolutely loved our experience with Lizbeth and would highly recommend her!
