Pet Sitting in Gallinas

About: Hi, I’m Sam! I’ve had animals in my life for as long as I can remember—dogs, cats, fish, reptiles, birds, and even horses. Growing up in a home where animals were part of everyday life (my dad worked in horse racing!), caring for pets has always come naturally. Though I’m new to professional dog walking, I’ve been a dedicated dog dad for over 20 years, always having two dogs by my side. I walk my own pups every day and make all of their food from scratch—yes, they’re very loved (and very spoiled!). I’ve also regularly pet sat for friends and family and am confident with dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I used to have a Great Dane/St. Bernard mix, so handling large or giant breeds is second nature to me. Whether you’ve got a gentle giant or a feisty little pup, I’ll treat them like one of my own—with love, patience, and lots of behind-the-ear scritchins! Let me help your dog get the exercise, attention, and care they deserve. I’m reliable, easy to communicate with, and always happy to customize walks to your dog’s needs and energy level. Looking forward to meeting you and your furry friend! My schedule varies a bit from day to day, but it’s consistent from week to week. I work some mornings and some evenings, but those shifts rarely change, so when you and your pup love me, it will be easy enough to work out a schedule that works for everyone! I am always off on Fridays and Sundays. I do not offer boarding in my own home, but I am always happy drop in to your place for play or potty breaks. Also, as my pups are cared for when I’m not around, I am also available to stay at your home for short trips!

“Kathryn is wonderful. We have appreciated her good humor and patience during the long (but very worthwhile) process of our dog Hildy getting to know a new person. We look forward to working with her going forward.”

“Susan did a fantastic job looking after our 3 dogs and getting them some much needed playtime. Happy that we have connected with her and will hire her again.”

About: I've been in the pet care field for nearly a decade and a pet parent for more than 12 years. My senior dog has taught me a lot about her needs as she has aged. So I understand that it isn't just about the walk but about patience & companionship, too. I also care for feline friends at their homes while their families are away. I look forward to a fun walk with your dog in the neighborhood or on local outings as well as for your cat's meals, litter box and play. Where I live there is an enclosed deck with plenty of toys where we can play and take a break together. There's also AC indoors when it's too hot outside. If a medicated pill or tablet is needed, I can administer that with a pill pocket or other snack but I will not administer injected medications or fluids.

“Katya was terrific! Shared photos and updates of her visit, and it was clear she was very focused on making sure Max was happy and well looked after. We’d highly recommend her!”

About: Ambidextrous (dog, cat, all!) pet lover here to make sure your best friend is happy, healthy, and safe while you're away. Playtime, mealtime, and pets; multiple days or a quick one-day drop-in, I'm here for it. I pride myself on having great pet energy, and reading/respecting their body language. I'm currently working part time from home in San Rafael, so I have a flexible schedule for drop-ins: walks, meals, playtime/inside/yard exercise, or just a bit of human interaction are all on the menu. I take locking doors and windows seriously in my own home, for myself and my own indoor pet. I maintain the same level of care for clients.

About: I’ve lived with dogs and cats throughout my lifetime. I’ve always helped neighbors and friends out with their pets since I was a child. I love all animals. I love being outdoors with them, enjoying our beautiful Marin landscape. Your fur baby can enjoy long hikes and beach time with me. I have a lot of energy and am patient and kind. I’m a stay at home wife and mother to three children ages 15, 13 and 11. Now that my children are older I have a lot of spare time during the day to spend with your beloved pets. I enjoy being outdoors in beautiful Marin. I love to paint and cook and listen to music. I love animals with all of my heart. At my home I have a fenced in yard. We also have an electric dog door. My pets are extremely well cared for. They are my fur children.

“Trisha was lovely to work with. Her professionalism and care for our cat exceeded all expectations! She went the extra mile and really connected with our little guy when we were out of town. She sent updates and photos every check in. We were so happy to have found Trisha and would highly recommend her for anyone looking for a thoughtful, kind and caring pet-sitter.”

“Annette did an amazing job, taking care of my cats. The cat litter was very clean when I got home. She was very good at communicating with me, asking me clarifying questions and ensuring she was doing exactly what I needed to be done. I would definitely hire her again.”

Sergio C.

“Lydia did a stellar job! She is reliable, on time and a she understands how to take of a cat, which is rare. I can tell she was here and actually paid attention to our cat because of the cat’s behavior when I got home. I would recommend her to another cat owner”

About: Dogs and cats always have an affinity for me and I absolutely love spending time with animals. I promise to give the best care always. I can care for pets overnight or during the day. I am willing to be flexible and open to your needs and cater to your circumstances. Just ask me! I only use the best products for my kitten for food and litter. He eats all natural best rated foods and has an automatic litter that I change every two to three weeks. I love to cuddle and show him attention.

About: I was a veterinary technician for almost 13 years. I worked with large and small animals. I also groomed animals for 4 years. I owned and ran my grooming business out of my home in St. Helena. I am a CSR at a vet hospital in Fairfax. I need to be home to care for my mother who is having health struggles so looking for more work closer to home. I am caring for my mother at home. I have lots of free time to fit in my schedule for walks, visiting homes and checking on all kinds of pets. I am open to exotics also. My boarding prices include one large area/room that is nice and cool and has room for bedding, toys, and whatever your pet desires. This room has access to a multi-level backyard. The animals are closed inside at night. Dogs also receive one 30 minute walk out of the home a day. Extra walks will be charged at $25 per walk. Cats stay in a room separate from dogs with all their amenities and will not leave this room during their stay. If your cat is leashed trained and you require walks please let me know know and we can talk about wether it is possible. I am a retired veterinary technician. I am educated in safety and health for animals. The pets in my home are loved and cared for individually. You can go on your trips knowing your animals are safe and cared for with a vet nurse. I am also willing to come by houses and visit. I will not do over night stays, but doggies/cats/exotics are welcome to stay overnight here at my home. When you leave your pet with me you will receive multiple pictures through out your pets stay and you will have full communication from me at all times. All dogs are required to have been vaccinated with Rabies, dhp, and bordetella. Cats should be vaccinated with Rabies, fvr-cp and leukemia. All animals that acquire fleas must be on a flea product. If they are not I will provide the flea dose but you will be charged accordingly for that dose. These requirements are for the safety of the animals in my home and in my neighborhood. Thank you for understanding.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 12 for neighbors and family friends they’ve relied on me to dog sit/ house sit walk and feed their pets. I’m currently working part-time, I have mornings off. I have plenty of time to help give some love to pets in need for a walk or stay I have a fenced gate, and plenty of space in my backyard to roam freely, in safe and quiet neighborhood as well as many walking trails.

She was really diligent and sent great photos, provided comprehensive updates and was really flexible when we wanted to extend our trip. We will definitely use Hoi again, can’t say enough good things about her. We are so grateful and our cat was not freaked out bc we were gone so long.”

“Kayla helped watch over our 11 week old puppy Ryder for 2.5 hours while I was working. Ryder loved her right away and they had a great time playing together. By the time she left, he was ready to take a long nap! Definitely would book again”
