Sophie has been amazing with my girl Rosie as she adjusts to city life. She has made a huge impact on keeping her calm and helping keep her active by giving her good exercise and working with to stay calm and focused while encountering squirrels, other dogs and loud noises on their walks. I have noticed such a change due to Sophie's interventions. Sophie is prompt, communicative and kind. A one of a kind! Rosie adores her!

About: My family has owned dogs since I was a baby, cats since I was 5, and I have helped care for them since I was 10: feeding/playing with them, dog walking, cleaning litter boxes. I’ve also helped take care of other family/friend pets. I worked, interned, and volunteered at a local animal shelter where I was trained to walk/care for/train dogs, play with/feed cats, and cleaned kennels/litter boxes. Over the summer of 2024, I worked at the Oakland Zoo where I gained experience on caring for wild animals. I am taking classes at the local community college. I am available weekends, Monday’s after 12:30pm, Tuesday/Thursday before 1pm and after 3:30pm, Wednesday’s between 12:30pm and 4pm, and Friday’s before 4pm. When I am free, I’m available to walk/feed dogs and take care of cats in their homes. I will send pictures showing the progress of the walk/visit. I will also write texts to update when I bring the dog outside, when I’m returning from a walk, and when I’m leaving and locking up the house. I own a car and am able to drive to your home to take care of your pets. I can also bring dogs for walks or drive them to a park to play outside if wanted. If I do drive them anywhere, I will make sure to text when I am leaving (house/park) and arriving to the park or back to the house to show the dog made the trip safely.

Meuy has been a loving and dedicated dog owner for most of her life, and her care and compassion truly shine through in the way she looks after dogs. She has taken care of both of my dogs multiple times whenever I needed a sitter, and I always know they are in great hands with her. My dogs can be pretty needy, but Meuy always goes above and beyond—whether it’s feeding them, taking them on walks, or simply giving them the attention they crave. She is incredibly reliable, and my dogs absolutely love her. In fact, they get so excited to be at her house that sometimes they don’t even want to come home when I pick them up! That’s when you know your dogs have been truly well cared for. I highly recommend Meuy to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and responsible dog sitter!

We purchased a Cane Corso from California and had Bobby pick him up, dog sit him at his home for several weeks before flying with Buster to us, we wanted him in the main cabin not cargo. Buster arrived healthy, happy and even leash trained as well as starting his sit and lay commands. We were very happy!

Adam is a wonderful pet carer and our shy rescue pup immediately warmed up to him. He has a great, calming, positive energy and is completely trustworthy. As soon as I met him, I knew Chami would be in good hands. He's very punctual, always bang on time to walk our dog and responsive with messaging and photo updates. I would 100% recommend him!

Ava and her family use to be my neighbors before I moved. They are a lovely family, Ava would come to watch and walk my dog. At a young age I trusted Ava to watch over my own pet. She works very hard, great at communicating in advanced and works well with who she is caring for. Even now I know I can rely on Ava to fulfill any responsibility. She would be an amazing caregiver for any loved ones!

Extremely reliable, was able to make a last minute time change. Barkerini seemed very comfortable with her, and now greets her at the door. Jena is going to be a big help when I need to be gone for the day ;-)

I can't recommend Haley enough as a pet caregiver. She goes above and beyond in providing exceptional care for animals. Haley is not just responsible; she's passionate about ensuring the well-being and happiness of each furry friend under her care. What sets Haley apart is her genuine love for animals. She takes the time to understand their unique personalities, preferences, and needs. Whether it's daily walks, playtime, or just some comforting company, Haley creates a nurturing environment that makes pets feel right at home. Her attention to detail and commitment to safety are truly commendable. I've entrusted Haley with my dog Murphy multiple times, and each time, she has exceeded my expectations. From administering medication to maintaining a clean and comfortable environment, Haley ensures every aspect of pet care is handled with the utmost professionalism and affection. If you're seeking a pet caregiver who treats your furry family members as her own, look no further than Haley. She's not just a reliable choice; she's a dedicated, loving, and responsible caregiver who brings joy to the lives of pets and their owners. Your pets will thank you for choosing Haley.
