1. Cheryll H.
“Cheryll is awesome. She truly cares about the dogs she walks. She gave my pups a great walk and was very responsive and followed my instructions perfectly. I will definitely use her again as a dog walker, and would highly recommend her to any dog parents out there.”
2. Jessica H.
About: Hi, my name is Jessica! I have experience with many breeds of dogs through my work in rescue and previous experience with walking and boarding dogs. I’ve worked with stronger breeds like shepherds, pitbulls/bully breeds, doberman, as well as herding breeds. I have a dog of my own that’s social with other dogs and assisted with teaching rambunctious puppies doggy manners as well as confidence building in shy dogs. My previous experience includes working with dogs with separation anxiety, leash reactivity, and dog selectivity/dog aggression. I live in a home with no breed restrictions. I can administer medication if the dog in my care requires it. I will continue training of the pets in my care according to what is practiced in the dogs home regularly.
3. Allison M.
“Allison has been such an amazing "friend" to our dog, Kona. We can tell how much Kona is loved and cared for while we are away at work and school. We get regular updates on how Kona is doing, including pictures! Would definitely recommend Allison for your dog's needs!”
4. Janet V.
“I had to move to Fremont but let me tell whoever reads this: I can’t find anyone like Janet! My dog loves her. Very communicative, works with your schedule and treats your dog like he is her own ! I’m half tempted to move back to San Mateo just for her! Thanks for loving my Duke the way I do!”
5. Varun V.

6. Alexandra M.
“Alexandra is a lovely young woman who helped me with my elderly high maintenance cat every time we left the house. I trusted her with the keys to my home and she would come and sit with my kitty and play with her and feed her and brush her and she loved her like she was her own. I have remained good friends with Alex and can’t wait to get another pet for her LOL. I could not give her a better reference. I would trust her implicitly to care for your pet, A true animal lover through and through.”
7. Audrey J.
“I’ve had such good experiences with Audrey watching my pets. By luck, I found her through the clinic she works at. She knows exactly what my pet needs when I’m away. I trust her to stay in my home. She is great with sending photos and updates. So happy I don’t have to look for a pets sitter anymore.”
8. Laura T.
“Laura takes care of my dogs when I need her. I have to travel for work one week a month and she is in charge of walking them, feeding them and making sure they are okay at all times. She has been taking care of my two dogs for 2 years and has always been phenomenal.”
9. Taylor J.
“I highly recommend Taylor as a responsible and loving pet caregiver. During my time out of state, Taylor took excellent care of my dog, Milo, for an entire week that i was gone. Milo is an energetic dog who loves his daily walks, and Taylor made sure that he never missed out on his favorite activity. Every day, Taylor sent me pictures and videos of Milo enjoying his walks, which gave me peace of mind knowing that Milo was happy and well cared for. It was clear from the updates that Milo had bonded with Taylor and was receiving lots of attention and affection. I felt completely confident in Taylor’s ability to manage all of Milo’s needs, and I appreciated the regular communication that kept me informed while I was away. Taylor's dedication, attentiveness, and genuine love for animals make them a fantastic pet caregiver. I would not hesitate to ask Taylor to take care of Milo again and highly recommend her services to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter.”

19. Thakshila D.
“Tucky is a trustworthy caretaker for your special pup! I have a very anxious dog who does not do well with a lot of people. However, anytime Tucky is around, she is so gentle and slow with him. She gives him his space and respects and instruction. I’ve asked of her in regards to him. I know that she has watched a multitude of different types of dogs and cats. Both she and her partner are huge animal lovers and enthusiastic caretakers. They live in a large quiet space which is ideal for reactive pets. Do not hesitate to let them watch your beloved fur baby!”
20. Daniel L.
“I can't recommend Daniel enough as a pet caregiver. He has taken wonderful care of my dog and two cats whenever I’ve been away, treating them as if they were his own. Daniel’s deep love for animals is undeniable as he adores and looks after his own five cats at home.🥹 Knowing him personally, I can vouch for his genuine affection and dedication to all pets. He's attentive, responsible, and has an incredible way of making animals feel loved and secure. Your pets couldn't be in better hands!”
