“Lee did a great job with my dog Riley. They were flexible about the start time for daycare and sent pictures to update me. Riley had a really good time sitting out back in the sunshine, and was happy and relaxed when I picked him up.”
“Danielle took great care of my dog! Usually my dog is very sad when I leave but she was running to meet Danielle and to get inside. She played all day with Danielle’s dog and they became fast friends. I loved all the photos and updates I received throughout the day! My dog was in safe hands, I couldn’t recommend Danielle more! I will definitely have her babysit again”

“Aman was very kind and gracious to watch our dog Whiskey on fairly short notice. He took great care of her and was highly responsive! I would definitely recommend and will reach out to him in the future.”
About: I’m a Fear Free Certified Professional, currently studying animal behavior. I’ve been running my own home based doggy daycare and boarding house for four years. My care is crate-free (unless that's what your pup's preferred at-home routine is,) with regular group outings to trails and the beach. I live in a two level home where the entire downstairs and fenced backyard are just for the dogs! It’s colorfully set up as the coolest doggie social club, but the pups are welcome throughout both levels of the home. They are never forcibly isolated and almost always prefer to be close to wherever I am. I keep my client list small and personal—almost all of my dogs have been with me for years. I don’t aim to pack the house; I aim to give the best experience possible for every dog and human involved. Even when clients start as one-offs, they usually stick around—because I strive to be a resource for dogs and their families. That’s why I call this place a home away from home. If you're interested, I invite you to come by for a meet and greet—see the space, meet me, and let me meet your little one. I look forward to being your dog’s new best friend! Canine care is my daily life. The dogs are with me throughout the day—whether we’re in the yard, around the house, or out on a trail. I structure my routine around their needs, with group outings, downtime, and a consistent rhythm. If my personal life calls me away, I have an amazing assistant Alaina who steps in. She also co-runs the daycare! I focus on keeping things consistent, calm, fun, and full of bonding—play, rest, outdoor time, and enrichment are all part of the daily rhythm. Outside of daycare hours, the space functions as our home too, so dogs experience a relaxed, real-life environment, not a facility. I send updates, pictures, and videos throughout the day.
“Courtney was great! Sent us lots of updates and let us know how our dog did throughout the day with rover card and pictures. Our pup has separation anxiety and can be unsure around new people but walked right up to Courtney and didn't look back :) Came home happy and exhausted!”
“Azar was great with the coqui! She’s so nice and easy to coordinate with. We met beforehand and it was clear she loves dogs, so I was comfortable with her caring for coqui. She sent some pics of him couch lounging and took him on a bunch of walks. I would definitely have him hang with her again.”
“Schatze loves Alexandra!!!! Between the walks on the lake, the pet friend she gets to play with, and all the love, my dog gets more and more excited each time i drop her off.”
“I can't recommend Heather and Ilaria highly enough! From our first interaction, communication was excellent. It was such a relief knowing Rio was in such caring and capable hands. I could tell Rio was happy and comfortable, and I appreciated cute photos! I will absolutely be using their services again and wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving dog sitter.”
About: I grew up with 3 dachshunds and pet sat for many years during college. I've also had 2 cats during college that have since passed away. I've worked a summer on a goat farm, fed chickens, and watched pet doves. I have a good presence with animals and people. I am a freelancer and am at home for the majority of the day. I can bring your dog with me to the park and running errands. Sometimes I'm out on client meetings here and there, but am always close to home. We are at the Vespr apartment building which are a dogs haven. Minutes from the lake for morning walks, with a built in doggy spa and run for evening potty breaks. Big windows with sunshine spots for sun soaking naps and filtered water for tasty sips.
“Latricia was great! My dog can be a bit difficult with new people, but Latricia was patient and understanding. She kept me updated with pictures throughout the day, too, so I had peace of mind.”
About: I’ve dog sat for friends and family in the past 2 years and I’ve loved the experience. Happy to provide references and chat more about my experience. My best friend lives on my floor and we take walks with his dog every morning and evening so it’s very well incorporated in my schedule I make my place conducive for pets since I have one visit often. No cords laying around, vacuumed floors and room temperature thermostat. This also applies to client apartments
About: I have walked over 150 dogs and cared for 3 dogs over the past two months. I am familiar with all breeds large and small. I am happy to work on training during walks for puppies who need a bit more discipline. I love to mix in run and walks for your puppy on my walks. I almost always try to bring your pet to the park for them to enjoy grassy areas and meet other puppies. I love to provide video and photos of our walks. It would be a pleasure to take care of your pet when you’re at work or even away for the long weekend. I am excited to accommodate any needs like refreshing the water bowls or adding food before or after the walk if requested. Thanks for consideration.
“I recently got my first dog and was a bit nervous putting him in doggy daycare for the first time. He also has separation anxiety and that didn't help my nerves. Noni was super kind and made me feel comfortable right away. Her two dogs are sweet and during the pet sitting she kept me updated with how my dog was doing and sent me pictures. All of this helped ease me and my dog loved her. She was able to ease his nerves and make him feel comfortable. I'll definitely book with Noni again because I know she'll take good care of him!!!”
About: I dedicate in creating a bond of trust and affection filled with love and patience. I provide a safe and enjoyable environment for your pets. I enjoy the outdoors and being around pets. They bring me such joy and comfort and I want to be a helping hand to owners I’m pet friendly and have lots of patience. I create a bond to enable trust for it to lead to an enjoyable and exciting time.
About: Hi! My name is Frankie (they/them). I am originally from Australia, and moved to the Bay Area ten years ago to work with disability arts organizations. I’m a life long dog lover, I’ve raised two large dogs from puppyhood to adulthood, taken care of small dogs and puppies, as well as elderly dogs, and am comfortable with dogs of all sizes! I currently regularly walk and play with several small and large dogs. I have experience dogsitting up to 15 days for all kinds of dogs including high energy dogs. I have raised and lived with more cats than I can count on both hands. Some other hats I wear are artist, writer, admin wizard, and swim teacher. Looking forward to meeting you and your fur baby! I am currently working a part time flexible schedule, so I can be very flexible with dog care. I love to schedule in time to play and exercise with my doggy friends. I have a fenced yard, and a gated area in my home for my dog. My dog loves to play with other dogs! In other homes I take it slow letting the dog get used to me by having plenty of time to smell and lick me so we have time to bond before we play or walk together.

Aimee E.
“I truly cannot say enough good things about Aimee. We met her through Rover when our dog Zoe was a puppy, and over the last few years, she has become a part of Zoe's family. Aimee watches Zoe for both daycare and boarding. Aimee brings a lot of fun (beach trips!), stimulation (toys, a doggie pool!), training, and most importantly, a ton of love and care to Zoe's life. It's clear that Aimee is passionate about dogs, and really takes the time to get to know each pup - their personalities, quirks, and needs. She also has excellent judgment. For example, when Zoe was in her care while we were out of the country, Aimee noticed that Zoe wasn't acting like herself and ended up taking her to the vet on our behalf and updated us frequently. We always feel like Zoe is in good hands while in Aimee's care. She has has excellent communication and we also love the videos and photos she sends throughout the day. I HIGHLY recommend Aimee for both boarding and daycare. She is a gem and we feel lucky to have her!”

“Latricia was great! My dog can be a bit difficult with new people, but Latricia was patient and understanding. She kept me updated with pictures throughout the day, too, so I had peace of mind.”
Chukwuebuka E.
“I have had the pleasure of knowing Chukwuebeuka for many years, but a side he never exposed to me was his love for pets. I recently adopted a pup in March 2025 and Chukwuebuka has been so supportive in my time as a new dog dad. With his prior experience being a dogsitter/dogwalker, he has the compassion that pets crave for. He is caring, loving, and generous to my pup, Tino. I am happy to hear he wants to spread this joy to other pets and I can't think of anyone better who would give peace of mind when looking after your furry friend.”
Clifford C.
“Cliff has shown nothing but the utmost attention and care when taking care of Benjamin. He showed his experience and willingness to deal with my Golden Retriever pup who had an ample amount of excitement and regrettably less disclipine than I care to admit. He was patient and worked with Benjamin on training and ran with him as requested to help curb his youthful exuberance. I am very happy to recommend and have Cliff care for Benjamin again.”

Esmeralda P.
“Esmeralda took amazing care of my dog when I went out of town for a week. I will trust her again to babysit my pet.”
Frances F.
“Frances is awesome and super reliable!! I have a 2 year old Aussie cattle dog mix with lots of energy and Frances has gone above and beyond talking her on proper hikes and doggie adventures while I am at work. Every time I get home on days that Frances takes her out, she is super happy and tired, which means I also get more time for myself after work. If you’re looking for a dog walker who will actually stimulate and care for your dog, they are the one!”
