“Mason did a terrific job with Baxter. He was attentive and took his time allowing Baxter to sniff and pee. Baxter clearly bonded with Mason, giving him the interim use of one of his plush toys before Mason left. I highly recommend Mason. Gale Justin”

About: I've taken care of cats a dogs since I was a child. I had a dog since I was 7 years old and a cat through my childhood. My family currently has a dog and 3 cats and we weekly volunteer with my daughter at Berkeley Humane. I'd love to take care of your pets and make sure they are comfortable while you are away. I currently work from home and my schedule is very flexible. I may have calls in the morning but I'm available for visits from early morning until late at night. I'm happy to follow your directions and provide care, attention and love to your pets while you are away. Just let me know what you need - and I'd be happy to accomodate!

About: Hi there! We are a big family of dog lovers, between me, my husband, mom, brother, sister in law, niece and nephew, there is always someone around available to watch your babies. My senior pug Valentino passed away in 2023, and though I’m not ready for another dog of my own quite yet, I enjoy having pets around to play with. Me and my husband mostly work from home, my mom is usually around as well, and the others are in and out between work and school… there is always someone available to care for your dog :) I have a small fully fenced yard, there is also a doggie door most dogs are pretty quick to learn how to use it. But we make sure to take them out often.
14. Shan J.
About: I really like pets, and also I have one cat and one dog. right now, dog is still with me. We love each other and have a walk everyday. Sometimes we went out for hiking. It's a big fun for me to stay with dogs. Also, we always play game together. The dogs are all very cute. All the time, they just like a kid, very active and funny. We've never known what will happen when we're with them. However, they are all so sweetly and lovely. Also, I want to have one more dog can be company with my little charlie cause he's really like play with every dog. He's a 6 months border collie, friendly and sweetly, but I can't afforded one more dog, so this maybe a good way to let him have more friends.
15. Patti M.
“Patti has been taking care of my dogs for over 15 years. She even took my dog to the vet when I could not leave my job! We ended up having to put her down and I'm so thankful that Patti was there for me, so my dog did not have to suffer!!! She treats your pet like her pet. She also has taken care of my cats a few times and they were always happy when we returned with cat boxes cleaned and full clean water bowls. Patti has been around my horse and barn many times and has experience around them. She could easily feed your horses as well if it was something you needed. You don't have to worry if she will change her mind. If she says she can do it she will. I highly recommend her, and I still use her for my animals now knowing they will be safe while I am away.”
16. Mariana B.
“Thank you so much Mariana for being available at short notice! I really appreciate your quick communication. Olive was super happy and calm when I came home. Will definitely be booking with you again! ❤️”
17. Jenna R.
“I'm very glad that we met Jenna and she is giving Violet walks on a regular basis. Jenna is very accountable and trust worthy. She is calm and understanding with my often anxious dog. And this week she responded to a last minute request for a walk... I appreciate the level of flexibility and quick responses that she provides.”
18. Cicely L.
About: I’ve taken care of my cute family dog for 12 years now and i’m happy to provide the same love and care to any other dogs and puppies. Happy to house sit and keep your pets company! I’m currently a UCLA undergraduate student home for the holidays! I’m free Monday-Sunday and would love make sure your pets are well taken care while you are busy! I love playing outside in our yard with my dog (she loves catching bouncy balls) and can easily bring some to entertain your pets! I make sure my pet has ample time outside with at least two walks per day.
19. Merlette T.
“Merlette is great with pets in general, she has a great love for animals and is very responsible when tending to their every need. She had cared for my yorkie before and I always had a hard time trusting my Maui with anybody but with Merlette I felt comfortable right awash especially how Maui just would get excited when being in her presence! I’d recommend Merlette over and over again to anybody looking for a dog sitter or a pet sitter. You will not be disappointed and your pet will be loved and taken care of as if they were her own.”
20. Desiree B.
“Thank you for walking Freddy!! He loves to walk, and having you help whenever we can’t take him out will help us immensely, but more importantly, it will make him really happy and hopefully fit. We recommend you 100%! Thank you, Desiree!!”
