About: I amlifelong dog lovers with over 13 years of pet care experience. I personally raised a toy poodle from 3 months old to over 10 years, giving her a happy, healthy, and loving life. My wife also shares this passion—she has two beautiful, happy dogs, Doudou and Nico, who are truly part of our family. Doudou joined her at 7 months old and is now over 13 years old, still healthy, joyful, and full of love. After Doudou had puppies, my wife lovingly raised her baby Nico from a tiny newborn to now over four years old. Together, I’ve cared for dogs through every stage of life, from energetic puppies to gentle seniors, always making sure they are healthy, well-groomed, and emotionally happy. I believe every dog deserves not only excellent care but also a loving and safe environment where they feel at home. When I look after someone’s pet, I treat them like our own—with patience, attention, and lots of cuddles. Pet care has been a natural part of our lives for over 13 years. Right now, our dogs are in China being lovingly cared for by our parents, but the same daily habits and routines are still second nature to us. I am used to structured schedules of feeding, walking, playing, and giving pets attention throughout the day. Our schedule here is very flexible, allowing us to provide care in the mornings, afternoons, and evenings as needed. Whether it’s a quick walk, playtime, or overnight care, I can easily fit pet care into our week and make sure every pet feels loved, safe, and well looked after. Safety and trust are our top priorities when caring for pets—whether in our home or in a client’s home. I create a secure, pet-friendly environment with no access to dangerous items or open doors/windows. I always supervise outdoor time, use leashes on walks, and follow each pet’s specific routine for feeding, play, and rest. I believe communication builds trust, so I send regular updates, photos, and short videos to let owners see their pets happy and safe. With over 13 years of combined pet care experience, I understand how to keep pets comfortable and stress-free, giving them the same love, patience, and attention I would give our own dogs.

About: I’m a dog lover who’s all about giving your pup lots of love, play, and care while you’re away. I live in an apartment building right near tons of green spaces and parks, so there’s always a great spot nearby for walks or playtime. I’ve got experience training puppies and I’m great with senior dogs who need a little extra TLC. Every dog gets plenty of attention, belly rubs, and walks tailored to their energy and personality. I’m currently taking some time off, so I have plenty of free time every day to give your pup all the attention and playtime they need. Whether it’s long walks, fun games at the park, or just cuddling around the apartment, I’m here to keep your furry friend happy and active throughout the day. Your dog won’t feel lonely or bored when they’re with me and my rescue pup Zoë! I provide loving, personalized care whether your pet stays with me or I visit them at home. In my home, your dog will enjoy a safe, cozy environment with plenty of playtime and walks around nearby parks. For in-home visits, I stick to your pet’s usual routine to keep them comfortable and happy, including feeding, potty breaks,

About: I’ve taken care of dogs over 50 years since childhood. As a retired doctor, I understand health and behavior well. Neighbors and friends often trust me with walking, feeding, and caring for their pets, knowing they’re in safe and loving hands. As a retired doctor, I now enjoy a peaceful life with a flexible schedule. I’m home most days and would love to spend time walking, playing, and caring for your dogs. I’m available throughout the week, including weekends and holidays. My home is quiet and pet-friendly, with a secure backyard and plenty of space. I focus on safety, comfort, and calm interaction. Your pet will have my full attention, and I can easily handle special needs or medication if required.

“Vivian was great! She responds VERY quickly and was open to walking Lou on a weekend while I had to work which was awesome because it can be really tough finding someone on weekends. I enjoyed reading her walk adventures with Lou! It was very detailed and we have plenty of pics. Thanks so much!”


About: I’m a Bay Area native who grew up with a mischievous Maltese. I have been around dogs all my life and am now a failed foster turned owner of two well behaved 4 year old chihuahua mixes. I am a strong believer in positive reinforcement and have great success doing behavioral training with all kinds of dogs. Sitting + Boarding - Before sitting, I will ask about your dog's day to day routine to understand how often and when they should eat, be walked, or taken outside. I'd also like to understand their energy level to gauge what activities we should be doing - dog parks, or slow walks. I live in a house with a fenced yard in San Mateo and currently have very flexible hours. We walk our dog everyday so you can insure your dog will have daily walks. If it’s sunny the dogs are allowed to run in and out of the yard as they please so they will never be bored inside. My schedule is very flexible as I work from home. My dogs are fed twice a day and walked at least once a day. I will ask you for your feeding, exercise, and bedtime routine so we can make sure to keep the right schedule for your dog. My dogs are crate trained and love sleeping in their crates at night. I have sat dogs who are used to sleeping with their owners, they will sleep with us. I will ask you ahead of time how your dog likes to sleep. I want to make sure we emulate their home routine as much as possible.

“My dog although a sweetheart can be a little unpredictable on walks so we are always very cautious on whom we ask to walk our dog. Our dog loves walking and my husband and I take turns w walking. When I had to travel I was honestly quite anxious about the walks. And Jason put all those anxieties to rest. He had a very good handle on my dog and my husband said that our dog came back very happy. Jason sent lovely pictures.”

Yiteng L.
“I’ve known Lawrence and his wife for many years, and I can confidently say that pets couldn’t be in better hands. Each of them has over 10 years of personal experience caring for dogs, including raising a toy poodle from 3 months old to over 10 years and lovingly caring for two beloved family dogs, Doudou and Nico. They are patient, responsible, and treat every pet like family—making sure they are healthy, happy, and safe at all times. Whenever we’re away, we always leave our dogs in their care, and they have always looked after them wonderfully. Our two little dogs absolutely adore them both, which speaks volumes about the love and comfort they provide. They are truly the kind of sitters you can trust completely, knowing your pets will be cared for just as if they were their own. We’ve been encouraging them to join Rover for a long time, and I’m so glad they’ve finally decided to take the step. Any pet parent would be lucky to have Lawrence and his wife as their sitters or dog walkers.”


Devina W.
“Devina is great with dogs. She took care of mine when I needed it most and followed all my instructions. Oscar also had meds that needed to be followed and she helped me with that thoroughly as well. She told me she had a few dogs of her own in the past that needed extra care, and I trust her with mine.”

Susan C.

“I have boarded my maltipoo, Tofu, with Susan every time I have had to fly out of town. She is very good about giving updates on how he is doing and sends me pictures everyday. One time she let me know he seemed to have an upset stomach (probably because I gave him some of my lunch oops) and that she would be feeding him chicken and rice until he felt better - with my approval of course. Every time I go to pick Tofu up he is the happiest he’s ever been! Highly recommend her!”
