Amie is amazing! She arrived in time and waited so patiently for me to open the garage, even though it took me about 15min just to see her text. I was so worried she had left but, to my great relief, she was still there! And she enjoyed my crazy dog! I am so grateful I found her for me and my puppy!

About: I've cared for our family dog as a teenager. As an adult, I've had my own dog, who I adopted from a local shelter. She was an adult stray who stole my heart. I prioritized her every need. I've also cared for pets belonging to family members and my neighbors. My experience is with young to adult dogs and cats ranging from kittens to seniors. Additionally, I volunteered at a local pet shelter for three and half years, providing care to dogs of all ages. I'm reliable, honest, punctual, and follow instructions quite well. I work full-time, but am available to check-in on your pet in the mornings and late afternoons on Mondays, Tuesdays, Fridays, and weekends. I work remotely on some days, which gives me more flexibility. I can travel to your home at your preferred time. I'm happy to accommodate your preference for entering your home and securely locking up after I leave. I can meet you in advance to ensure I have all of your instructions on how you want me to care for your pet.

About: I have a rescue dog of my own, so I understand how to approach shy or nervous pets with patience and care, while also keeping up with the more playful, high energy ones! I like to think of myself as a bit of an animal whisperer, I’ve never met a pet I couldn’t connect with. ;) My experience includes many different volunteering positions, including at the kitten nursery at the Peninsula Humane Society & SPCA, dog rescues, and rescue farms. I also worked at a small animal clinic in Thailand through a veterinary program, and shadowed a veterinarian here in the U.S. I just completed my first year at Michigan State University, where I’m studying Animal Science on a pre-vet track. Caring for animals isn’t something I just decided to do, it’s what I’m truly passionate about. I treat every pet like my own and always prioritize their comfort, safety, and happiness. I'm currently on my summer break and working part-time, so my availability is limited on certain days of the week (only available Monday + Wednesday mornings or late evenings, and Sunday late evenings) but I am basically available any other time on other days. I will keep the animals on their needed schedule and be very attentive towards them, I will work to make them feel as comfortable with me as they do with you!

About: I’ve loved and cared for a variety of pets throughout my life — from hamsters, birds, and fish to playful puppies and loyal senior dogs. My experience with different animals has taught me how to understand their unique personalities, needs, and quirks. I treat every pet like family and always prioritize their comfort, safety, and happiness. Whether it’s a playful pup or a shy bird, I give them the attention and care they deserve. My Availability: Weekday Availability: I live in the Bay Area Peninsula and work full-time in San Francisco, Monday through Friday. I’m usually out of the house by 7:30–8:00 AM and get home around 6:00–7:00 PM on weekdays. Weekend Availability: I’m off on Saturdays and Sundays, and my schedule is more flexible depending on any prior plans I might have. If you have specific dates or times in mind, feel free to reach out. I’m always happy to see if we can make it work! When I’m caring for pets, their safety, comfort, and happiness always come first. Whether in my home or yours, I make sure the space is clean, cozy, and safe for them to relax and play. I stick to their usual routines and give them plenty of love and attention, so they feel comfortable and cared for. Every pet deserves to feel like family, and I treat them that way.

About: I’ve had the joy of caring for dogs of all ages and temperaments, from playful puppies to senior pets needing a gentler touch. I’m comfortable with everything from walks and feeding to giving medications and providing lots of love and attention. I also have a 1-year-old Miniature Australian Shepherd named Archie—he’s calm, well-trained, and very friendly with other dogs. Archie loves having a buddy around, and I always make sure all dogs feel safe, happy, and at home. I work full-time Monday through Friday from 9am to 6pm, so I’m available for evening drop-ins, walks, or pet sitting after work. I’m also fully available on weekends for walks, boarding, or extended care. If your pup enjoys calm companionship, my dog Archie is a great match and loves weekend playdates too! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. Whether caring for your dog in my home or yours, I treat every pet like family—providing a calm, clean, and secure environment where they can feel at ease. At my home, pets have a structured, low-stress routine with supervised playtime, potty breaks, and plenty of cuddle time. I maintain a tidy space and monitor all interactions closely, especially during introductions. My dog Archie is gentle and well-socialized, and I always make sure dogs are a good fit together before allowing free interaction. When caring for pets in your home, I respect your space and follow your pet’s routine closely—from feeding schedules to crate preferences and medication needs. I provide regular updates, photos, and open communication so you can feel confident and informed while you're away.

About: My son now refers to me as the “Dogfather”. So I’ll own it! I’ve been caring for animals since I was six years old, and over the years, I’ve become the go-to pet sitter in my family whenever anyone travels. It’s something I truly love, so I decided to share that care and attention with others in my community. When I walk your dogs, I aim for a solid 2 to 3 miles during each hour-long session to give them the exercise they need and deserve. I treat every dog like they’re my own—making sure they feel safe, loved, and well-looked after every step of the way. You can relax knowing your fur baby is in good hands. For overnight boarding we ask that dogs that you suspect might have fleas be given a flea treatment prior to their stay. We aim to keep our house “flea free” to ensure that all your pets are safe and healthy! I’m a freelance artist with a flexible schedule, which means I have plenty of time throughout the day to give your pets the care and attention they deserve. I’m available for overnight stays every night of the week and can easily work around your schedule. Whether it’s daytime check-ins, long walks, or overnight care, I’m here to provide reliable, loving support whenever you need it. I have a completely fenced in yard and a sweet little dog named Kirby. I work in my garage so I’m always aware of what is going on in the yard as it is right next to me. I take breaks often throughout the day and spend lots of time playing with my own fur baby so I’ll have plenty of time to devote to yours as well.

Diana and Michael were so kind and professional. I felt extremely safe leaving Reptar in their hands. He requires a wagon and to be lifted, so not for everyone, but Michael was able to assist my big/little guy and get him out while I was out of town for the day. Thank you so much for being so kind and sweet to my guy.

5 stars for Janet! We had a sitter cancel last minute on us and Janet was so quick with getting back to us to let us know she was available. With such a short notice, she saved the day (or trip I should say) for us. She sent pictures every time she dropped in for her visits. She even left the boys a toy to play with (very surprised it’s still in tact). I will absolutely book her again! Thank you again Janet. Don’t hesitate, just book her and she’ll take great care of yours dogs!

About: I have taken care of a wide variety of animals and love making sure they are happy, fed and have a Tongue out Tired walk. I am available on the weekdays and most weekends to do sitting and walking. Boarding depends on my schedule. Typically I take an afternoon or a weekend off here and there. I offer exceptional service for the animals I care for. I monitor their poop and adjust their food to make sure they have what they need to succeed and make sure each breed gets the walks and runs the need.

⸻ Testimonial for Linda Mogannam For over 20 years, Linda Mogannam has taken amazing care of my cats whenever I was away. She’s always been reliable, kind, and genuinely loving with them. Knowing she was there gave me total peace of mind every time I had to leave. I’m so thankful for her care and friendship over the years — I couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter or neighbor.

When she was in Taiwan she volunteered to nurture and take care of abandoned cats. She loves any pet and also a plant lover. She is well-experienced pet lover. Cherishes the companionship of animals.

Michael is amazing ! He consistently goes above and beyond to ensure my dog has a fun and safe walk every time. My puppy, Teddy, needs extra walks for weight loss and practice being on leash so this has been a great arrangement. Michael is flexible and a great communicator. Teddy gets excited to spend time with Michael and is well exercised after the walks. I look forward to daily updates and pictures of him. Highly recommend Michael to anyone looking for a reliable and loving dog walker!

About: I have taken care of a wide variety of animals and love making sure they are happy, fed and have a Tongue out Tired walk. I am available on the weekdays and most weekends to do sitting and walking. Boarding depends on my schedule. Typically I take an afternoon or a weekend off here and there. I offer exceptional service for the animals I care for. I monitor their poop and adjust their food to make sure they have what they need to succeed and make sure each breed gets the walks and runs the need.
