About: I’ve taken care of my friends and families dogs for years and absolutely love doing so. Everything from overnights in your home to drop ins for walks and potty breaks, your best friend is in good hands My schedule is very flexible and I am available to take care of your best friend at very short notice. I pride myself on being dependable and caring. I appreciate knowing all of the details about your best friend. What is their temperament, do they like long walks or snuggles? Is your cat playful or shy? Every detail helps me take the absolute best care of your best friend.

“Hi, this is Charlie, Kate did a great job and took me on long walks, and when I was skipping meals because I missed my family she made sure to contact them to let them know. She always arrived on time!”

About: I am blessed to have been able to grow up with dogs. They are my world. From puppy care to senior care, I can promise you the best for your loved ones. I work part-time and would love to get the opportunity to take care of your loved ones. Due to the nature of my job, from weekdays to weekends my availability is very open. I am so excited to get to know you and your fur babies!! With years of experience in dog walking, feeding, and training, I understand that pets need proper love and care to thrive. I prioritize creating a safe environment that keeps your babies stress-free. I am very communicative and will adhere to their usual routines while taking lots of pictures so you are confident in my care for them!

“Sandy is sweet and reliable. Arrives on time and follows my instructions/preferences. I’m so happy to have met her and will definitely use her regularly.”

“Shawna is excellent at communicating. We are so grateful for her help with walking Goose while we were away for a few days. We appreciate the thorough report cards. Goose seems so happy on their walks. Thank you, Shawna!”

“So glad we found Courtney! My dog, Ivy, and I did a Meet & Greet and walked around the block. Ivy can be a handful on the leash, but Courtney did a great job managing her energy and pulling. We had a nice chat while walking together, and it’s clear Courtney has a natural way with dogs. Ivy liked her so much she was ready to head off on a longer walk without me! She's responsive, easy to talk to, and definitely someone I trust. I felt completely comfortable leaving Ivy in her care and have added her to my 'favorites' list for future walks.”

About: I’ve grown up around animals my whole life. From taking care of family pets, aiding in neighboring furry friends needs and fostering those looking for homes I have grown quite familiar with what it takes to deliver excellent pet care. I’m currently working part time, without a set schedule. I would be completely available on my days off and in my free time before and after work. I love playing with animals and giving them lots of love. Your pet would never feel alone in my care and I will be sure to give them my 100% attention and priority when in their presence.

“We truly believe we have found the best dog walker ever ! Judi treats Aria like she is hers. She is very flexible and is always working around our schedule. Judi is always on time and never cuts Arias walks short. Aria is very shy but Judi is so good she adapted to her very quickly and gets very excited every time she shows up! I can’t thank Hudi enough but if you are looking for someone to take care of your baby Judi is definitely the right person !!!”

About: I’ve been petsitting since I was 14. I’ve taken care of my families, friends, and even my neighbors furry companions! I have experience taking care of Senior dogs as well as dogs that have more special needs. I am a confident caretaker and hope to be trusted to take care of your fur babies and provide them with as much comfort as possible! I’m currently working full time at a doggie daycare in San Jose so I get to work with dogs all the time. That doesn’t stop me from wanting to help out and look after your furry friends as well! I’m very flexible and i’ll make sure to make the time to give your pet the attention and care that they need. :) I love to get your pup out in the sun to get some fresh air and exercise. Nothing more healing than the sun! Nearby parks or specific routes that they enjoy ensures that they are comfortable while you are away. I always make sure to play with them so they can get some energy out while having the fun they need. Although a pup will soon get tired and so while they nap I of course give them the much needed rest and space.

“Great job with Tucker. Easy to communicate with. Very flexible during a tough scheduling time. Looking forwars to working togethwr more!”

Kyle Z.

“Cassidy is great! I always get thorough updates and she has been flexible with our last minute requests. She is very capable and experienced and I know my (sometimes anxious) pup is in good hands!”

Katie and Vesselin V.

“Rachel is very flexible with her time. She came over to meet our dogs before their first walk with her. Our GSM had recently refused to go with a dog walker, but he warmed up to Rachel and was happy to allow himself and his little sister be taken for a walk. Rachel communicates well and clearly has great dog energy. We highly recommend her!”

About: I grew up with both dogs and cats in my home for as long as I can remember. I am currently trying to fill a pet void by helping out within my neighborhood until I can commit to having one of my own. I have always felt a special connection with pets and adore making them feel loved and cared for. I’m a part-time nurse, which gives me some extra days off—and I can’t think of a better way to spend them than hanging out with your pets! I’ve always been an animal lover and know how much our pets truly become part of the family. I’d love to fill some of my downtime helping you feel confident that your favorite furry family members are getting plenty of love, attention, walks, cuddles, and company while you’re away. I’ve always had a special connection with animals—and honestly, I usually prefer their company to humans! 😂 I’m naturally caring, patient, attentive, and pretty good at noticing the little things, so I’ll take the time to get to know your pet and what makes them happiest and most comfortable. I’ll care for them like they’re my own, whether that means sticking closely to their routine, extra time outside, a little more patience with a nervous pet, or plenty of cuddles and company. Most of all, I want you to feel completely comfortable knowing your favorite family member is in loving, dependable hands while you’re away.

About: Animals have been a central part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up on a cattle ranch in a small town in Utah, surrounded by animals of all kinds. From livestock and horses to chickens, goats, potbellied pigs, and multiple family dogs, caring for animals was simply a part of everyday life. Those experiences taught me responsibility, patience, and how to understand the unique personalities and needs of different animals from an early age. As an adult, my passion for animals has only grown. I personally trained my own service dog, gaining valuable experience in obedience training, behavior management, consistency, and building strong bonds through trust and communication. Today, I share my home with three amazing dogs: my service dog and her two sisters. After close friends sadly passed away, I adopted her sisters so they could remain together. The girls have been inseparable since they were puppies, and watching their lifelong bond has deepened my appreciation for the emotional connections dogs form with one another. With a lifetime of hands-on experience caring for animals, I understand that every pet is unique. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, active playtime, structured routines, or plenty of affection, I provide attentive, dependable care and treat every pet as if they were part of my own family. Pet care is my daily life. With open availablity and work from home it works out great for me as a bay area photographer it gives me the time to spend with the pups with minimal time away. right now, I am taking care of clients for babies at their homes taking them for walks to their favorite places hikes and if the client wants play dates with my girls following feeding and medication requirements and needs for each individual Pup

About: I’ve been the go-to pet person in my circle for years! Friends, family, and neighbors call me when they need someone reliable, patient, and genuinely excited to hang out with their pets. Whether it’s walks, drop-ins, overnights, or keeping up with detailed routines, I take pride in making pets feel safe, loved, and completely at ease while you’re away. What sets me apart from other sitters is the level of attention and emotional awareness I bring. As an empath, I don’t just “watch” pets, I learn their personalities. Are they high-energy zoomie champions? Velcro dogs? Secret snack negotiators? I adjust my care style to fit *them* so they stay happy and stress-free. I have experience with puppies who need structure, consistency, and patience (potty training, leash manners, crate routines), as well as senior dogs who deserve a slower pace, gentle handling, and medication support. I’m also very comfortable with anxious or shy pets and use calm, positive approaches to build trust at their speed. My goal is simple: happy pets, lots of tail wags, and owners who can relax knowing their furry family member is in caring, capable hands. Plus, you’ll always get photo updates because I know being away is the hardest part :) My schedule is thoughtfully balanced between two of my personal businesses—pet care and swim instruction. I’m a professional swim instructor during parts of the day, which means I may be in the water or teaching lessons for a few hours at a time, depending on the day of the week. Because of this, I build my pet care schedule very intentionally to make sure every animal in my care gets consistent attention, exercise, and quality time. Pet care isn’t just something I “fit in”—it’s a core part of my work and something I genuinely care about. Balancing both businesses allows me to stay active, responsible, and fully present in the care I provide. My care style really comes down to one thing: keeping pets happy, comfortable, and on their normal routine, just with me stepping in as their temporary human. In a client’s home, I treat your space with the same respect I’d want for my own. I stick closely to feeding schedules, walk times, medications, play routines, and any “house rules” your pet knows (or thinks they can bend). I keep things clean, calm, and secure so your pet feels safe in their familiar environment. If pets are staying in my home, they get a cozy, supervised environment with lots of attention, exercise, and downtime based on their energy level. I make sure introductions, rest spaces, and routines are handled thoughtfully so everyone feels comfortable. I'll most likely end up snuggling your pet too! :)

About: I have Animal Shelter and Pet Store experience. I have had pets all of my adult life and sincerely believe that they are the best enrichment of human lives. I have medication experience and have been trained to be cautious of medical conditions. I can be trusted to act fast for worst case scenarios (knock on wood). I know how to take the best care of pets with the knowledge I’ve learned from my own experiences over the years. I work full time at a dealership but, with enough notice I can make sure to be available for your pets when needed. I am available every evening after 7pm Tuesday - Saturday and all day Sundays and Mondays I have 2 cats, a free roaming rabbit and geckos at home with my partner. I love taking care of their individual needs and giving them treats and toys to make them happy.

About: I have taken care of pets for as long as I can remember! My neighbors and clients have relied on me to watch their fur babies (and homes) as if they were my own! And I have loved every minute! I am currently working part time so I have lots of time to fill! I also do not travel much so holidays I am around ! I have a fenced in yard and two fur babies to keep your pup company! I can also crate your pup if needed! Can’t wait to meet your babies! Bring on the barn animals too! Chickens, Ducks, Goats, Bunnies, house birds of all sizes!

About: Hello! My name is Stephanie! I have owned dogs and pets my whole life and I absolutely love animals. I only care for one guest dog at a time, so your pup gets plenty of personalized attention, love, and care during their stay. I have a 3-year-old Goldendoodle who is super friendly and loves making new friends! I work remotely, so I’m available throughout the week and on weekends for overnight boarding and daycare. I especially love working with recurring families so I can build a relationship with you and your furry friend and help them feel comfortable and at home during every stay. I’m a very outdoorsy person and love taking dogs on adventures, whether that’s going to the park, exploring a dog-friendly trail, or enjoying a nice long walk. We also have a yard for plenty of playtime and outdoor fun! I can’t wait to meet you and give your pup a fun, loving, and personalized home-away-from-home! 🐶💕 I work remote and have a flexible schedule over the week so I will be able to spend all day with your best friend and give them all the love and attention they need while you are away! Your pup will be going on walks throughout the day or a trip to the dog park. I would prefer to watch your pet in my own home but am also open to pet sitting and can make arrangements to visit your pet.

About: When living with my parents, we took care of our frenchie and yorkie/corgi mix. Now I have three amazing cats of my own (black, orange and tux). I believe the Tux and Orange cat alone make me highly qualified for this role, if you know you know 😂 I also went to school for a short time where we cared for farm animals and I also volunteered at the humane society for a short time. I’m at home almost all day since I work from home. I feed my own cats 3 times a day, in the morning, before I leave to the gym, and then later at night before bed. They entertain each other for the most part, but I still engage with them and have a ton of toys for them as well. My cats aren’t allowed in my room, and there’s a section between my room and the living room that can be closed off. This is the space I used when my cats were kittens so they would get use to their surroundings before meeting each other. I would be able to use this space to allow any cats to roam around as well and have a separate litter box for them.
