Deborah was great with our pups, and the dogs really seemed to enjoy her company. I think she became their new best friend while we were away. Looking forward to having Deborah take care of our dogs the next time we’re away!

About: I am full of gratitude that have had a lifelong relationship with dogs. I use a force-free and fear-free approach. Dogs are their own beings that we get to tend to as humans, and it is truly an honor that I get to work with them. I’m a fan of long walks, hikes, and East Bay hills explorations. Special needs dogs and large pups welcome! My absolute favorite dogs are rescues, but I have experience walking dogs of all sizes, from mastiffs and newfies to shitzhus and terriers. Please let me know if your dog has any special needs, favorite games, or things to avoid. I am kind, firm, and will pick up all of your dog’s poop! I look forward to meeting you and your doggy friend! I work from home and take lots of walks throughout my flexible day. I’d love to take your pup along with me! I can do longer morning walks with enough heads up as well. Your dog's trust and safety is so important to me! I will spend time with you beforehand so that I can learn more about your pup and what they need. For walks, I will get to know your dog before we venture out on to the streets together. For dogsitting, I have a house checklist to make sure that your pup and space have the best care while you're away. I keep a safe distance from other dogs and people during walks.

Cyndi was such a big help when my husband and I got a new puppy. She came over twice a week for two weeks to help us give him lunch and provide some snuggles and play time. Cyndi does a great job of updating you with photos and a summary of the time she spent with our pets. She also provides a lot of great information and feedback if you have questions about a veterinarian or food products/toys. Overall, she did a lovely job and we will definitely be using her for future puppy needs?

About: I am a loving and friendly dog sitter! I grew up with two dogs, a poodle and a Chihuahua. My family currently has a bull terrier that I love very much. I also take care of my best friend's dog when she is out of town. I love dogs and going on walks so this combination is perfect for me. I am currently a nanny to one of nephews as needed but I am free every day during the summer to take care of your furry babies. I make sure I read their cues of needing water/food, when they need to pee/poop, when they're overstimulated, stressed, or happy. I also make sure to pet them and show them love by scratching them, patting them, and rubbing them. I also follow any schedule that is given to me to make sure they stick to their normal routine.

About: My name is Mandisa, I am a caring and compassionate Bay Area kinfolk. My dog recently transitioned after 14 years of lovely Boxer dog life. I decided this would be a great way to help others who might find themselves having a hard time finding a responsible person to love and care for their pets when they have the need to travel for work or for relaxation. I am available to board, drop in, walk dogs, take pups to the vet, or house sit depending on the needs of the client. I am very interested in helping urban farmers like myself. Thank you for taking a moment to view my profile. I hope I am able to meet you and your pet(s)! Diversity Statement: May all beings be free from suffering and injustice. I will always work hard to be inclusive, mindful, and aware of the needs of those families I encounter and their pets. I myself identify as and am happy to welcome QTBIPOC families and all others. Many blessings! MW I am an Ethnic Studies professor transitionionng in to life insurance. I work from home and am available for at least two 30-minute dog walks per day. I am looking forward to providing great care for your beloved pet. I always have lengthy conversations with pet owners including a site visit with the pet and parents. This helps to ensure that everyone is comfortable and the client/pet can see that my yard is fenced in the back and my home is ready for day visits. I am not doing much boarding these days because my Mom has a cat. Willing to consider it.

About: I have two wonderful dogs in my family Andy and Louis. They are everything to me. They are ready to welcome and make some new friends and would love to share their space with other fur babies. I am working part time from home taking care of my toddler and a fur baby named Andy. I am home all day and love taking my boy and Andy on a short walk around the neighborhood. We have quiet and friendly neighbors which is a plus. We have a fenced back yard ~800sq ft with some turfed space for the dogs to play. Like I mentioned I have another playful dog who will give a good company for your dogs as well.

We had been looking for a dog walker for a while but after meeting Patti we found exactly what we wanted. She is very friendly, trustworthy and dependable. Patti was thorough on making sure our dogs were cared for in case of an emergency by asking for vet information and emergency vet contacts. On our first trial session with Patti one of our dogs was sprayed by a skunk the nite before and we did our best to remove the skunk smell but it still had a strong oder that lingered. Patti was understanding of the situation and managed to still help us out and walked and feed our pups! We are so grateful and appreciative of her help. She even was kind enough to bring in our packages left at our door. She was on time and was able to manage walking both our Alaskan Huskies! Patti has all the attributes you would want in someone to take care of your fur family members. We highly recommended Patti!

About: I grew up in a large family of animal lovers, we've always had more pets than grandchildren! I've taken care of my own and other family and friend's pets, walking, bathing, and house sitting puppies to senior dogs. I have a set schedule of Homecare clients, so I'm available consistently to care for your darlings, but can work in mornings too when needed! I care for every pet as family and stick to the routines their owner and I discuss. I make sure pets are fed and walked on schedule and tired them out with play and activities before they end their day. I can also give medications if needed. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and keep pets comfortable by maintaining their normal routine. I also keep the environment clean and safe and send regular photo and message updates so owners feel reassured while they’re away. My goal is to make pets feel happy, safe, and well cared for while keeping their owners informed and confident in the care their pet is receiving.

About: I've had a dog since I was born and have taken care of it but my dog passed away about a year ago and I can't afford another dog right now so I want to see other cuties to connect with them. I can work anytime. Free for most days, would love to take care of your pets and get out to walk, to play, or even take care of them! My pet was very secure I have a fence in my house and a gate, no pet can get out. Can take care of any kind of pet. Very flexible.

Patricia was great with my two cats! Even though it was her first visit, both of my indoor kitties came out and greeted her. My senior cat, Juliet, who only likes me and my daughter, actually came out to say hi to Patricia! She truly is a cat person and will take good care of your fur babies. I’m sure I will be booking her again!
