1. Deborah R.

“FANTASTIC. Deborah is a total pro and exceeded our expectations in every way. We recently took a 7 day trip (the longest we’ve ever been away from our shy little cat) and feel so lucky that we found Deborah. Our cat usually is very nervous around new people, but took right to her and they were snuggling in no time. Loved getting the photos each day and it gave us peace of mind knowing our kitty was in such capable hands. 10/10!!”

3. Merlette T.

“Met letter was great with our two cats! She did all the basics (food/water/litter box) and then gave them some extra love and attention. She even got our shy one to come out and say hi! Would definitely recommend her for all of your pet needs and we will Definitely be using her again ❤️”


4. Alexandra H.

“Alexandra went well above and beyond what we asked her to do for our cat, as well as our fish tank and tortoise. She cleaned, took out trash, washed pet bowls, and more. She was thorough, organized, and very patient with our anxious kitty. A genuine animal lover.”

About: Your pet is part of our family during their stay! A stress free-caring and loving home for both cats and dogs are welcome. All ages are invited, including babies and seniors as they need extra TLC. Unlike crowded kennels or busy boarding facilities, I can provide personalized, home-based care with one-on-one attention. I live in a walkable community and a friendly dog park is located 0.2 miles away for leisurely strolls to walk & play daily. I create a calming experience for pets with anxiety, special needs, and disabilities. If needed, I can also administer medications, follow special diets and specific requests accurately. Pet safety is number 1, while I am providing a secure and safe home environment. To assure that your pet is safe and comfortable with their new home away from home, I provide updates via text which include pictures and videos. I provide walks, playtime at dog park and brushing of your pet while here at our home. You have the option to upgrade to add activities during their stay, below. “Treat your Pet” 1. HOME SPA DAY: Pamper with a relaxing spa experience ( 1 hr ) $40 2. GROOMING APPTS: Keep them looking fresh with professional services ( upon availability an estimated drop off & pick up of 4 hrs ) $100-$175 3. DAY OUT: Give your pet an adventurous day out with your choice: hiking tour, tour the town (this includes a new toy), or the Bayfront Park tour; sweeping views of the San Pablo Bay & Golden Gate Bridge (2-3 hrs total) $60 ... If you’re wondering why the basic fees are so affordable; I am new to Rover but also want pet parents to take advantage to add additional activities for their furry friend. Can’t wait to host! I currently have nothing but time and what better time to spoil your fur baby while they are in my loving care. I adore animals! I have a fenced yard, 2 outside cats, a screened porch, dog park located 0.2 miles walking distance, cat crate offered for safe handlings to and from car, cat toys, cat catcher, cat activity bar, dog toys, fetch sticks, tug toys, and approved treats.

11. Taylor M.

“Taylor M. was great with my two cats. She gave great updates and pictures every time she visited. Even my older cat, who is not fond of new people, came out to say hi to Taylor.”


12. Mason W.

“Mason is prompt and responsive, and I appreciate his willingness to take care of my senior shepherd who can’t walk on his own anymore. i look forward to having him take care of my dogs many times again!”

“Irina did a great job caring for our pets! We were glad to get picture and text updates, and everyone was happy, healthy, and safe. Thank you, Irina!”


14. Vivian T.


“Our Boba boy is fear aggressive with everyone. Vivian was so gentle and patient. He really warmed up to her. We are very happy. Highly highly recommended. Thank you, Vivian.”


15. Victoria F.


“Victoria was fantastic with Max. She also sent us several pics and updates while she was there which is so nice, especially since this was our first time using a sitter. He is quite shy and totally warmed up to her instantaneously. Also she went above and beyond when little Max found a rotting squirrel carcass in our backyard. I would guess 99% of walkers would have just kept him away, but Victoria picked it up and threw it into the trash for us! Total Warrior! Looking forward to working with her again.”

18. Denise L.

“Denise was great. She is friendly and clearly loves animals. Gozer, one of our cats, took to her right away. Besitos, who is super skittish, came out to greet her twice. That is a big deal! She was great about checking in and sending photos and even doing some extra work cleaning up when one of them ate too fast and got sick. I recommend her services and will book her again.”

“Astrid has been an incredible pet sitter for our dog, Flash. dedication for animals truly shine through in her care. She always ensures that Flash is comfortable, well-fed, and gets plenty of exercise and playtime. Astrid's home is also a safe and welcoming environment, and her own dog is a great companion for Flash. We always feel at ease knowing that Flash is in such caring hands. We highly recommend Astrid for anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate pet sitter!”
