6. Rachel "Gerome" U.
“Gerome took care of our home and our little shiba "Setsuko" along with Alse C in December. They were fantastic and even made the effort to come and meet us/our dog ahead of the sit so they were a familiar face for our dog when they returned for the sit. They kept us updated with anything going on and were key in helping us having a relaxed vacation away from our doggo. Thank you both!”


7. Chloe C.

“Chloe is dedicated to walking my pup who loves her. She braves all weather conditions and schedule changes with a good attitude. My dog Sophie gets the zoomies after every walk.”

“Michelle has always been prompt and thorough. She is knowledgeable and will go above and beyond to accommodate your and your pet’s needs. I would recommend her to anyone.”


9. Cindy O.
“Cindy has dog sitter for my wife and I many times over the last 5 years. Duration has been between a quick visit to feed and let outside to coming over multiple times a day for a week when we were out of town. Cindy is great with animals and our late Luna (dog) really loved her. I would definitely recommend Cindy to take care of your pet(s) while you’re away. Either in a pinch or a scheduled trip, she has always been reliable and extremely pet friendly.”


10. Marion F.
“Marion is a long time friend and I can confirm A) she’s a real person! and B) she’ll take good care of your critters of any persuasion. Marion is the responsible friend you can trust to take care of your pets, check on your house, etc. She’s watched my cat countless times, she’s the only other person my shy dog ever let scritch her ears, and she’ll probably take the best picture of your pet you’ve ever seen. If you’re looking for someone for regular or occasional pet sitting or walking, she’s your gal.”

13. Madelynn L.
“Madelynn was the best sitter for my sweet baby. She created an amazing bond with my german shepherd. She would send me pictures and videos of him playing or snuggling in his bed. Maddie is a very welcoming and comforting person. She treats your babies as if they’re her own! If my baby loves her, yours will too!”


14. Mindy B.

“Thank you for taking such good care of my fur babies while I was on vacation!”


15. Alyce S.
About: Hello everyone, my name is Alyce; I’ll treat your animal as if they were my own! I have 4+ years experience of helping walk and care for my uncle’s German Shepard, Drew!

Weekends preferred. - Alyce I can feed your dog or cat, take them to the bathroom, scoop their litter, play with them; whatever you and your furry friend need me to do while you are busy!


16. Alexus W.

“Thanks again Alexus!! Ivy loves your walks”


17. Julia B.

“I recently hired Julia to walk and feed my large dog Bear while I was out of town for work. I had been turned down by another dog sitter due to his size. She did an excellent job and my house was even clean when I got home. Bear can be quite messy. My hedgehog Oscar was watched over as well by Julia. Seems she just has a way with all animals. Very pleased overall! Willow L.”


18. Sarah J.
“Sarah is our daughter and has been one of the family members who has cared for our dog Bentley. She responsible and loving towards animals.”

20. Leslie T.
About: I come from a family of pet lovers. We’ve had everything from hamsters to guinea pigs to chihuahuas and even a German shepherd, (I forgot the birds!) I love all animals. Recently, I’ve been pet sitting on the side of my nursing job. It makes me so happy to see a happy animal full of all the love they have! I’m currently traveling back and forth from New Orleans to San Francisco for work. I’m hoping to help people that need pet care like I do. I am open to how each client cares for their pets. I don’t crate my dog, but he can crate trained. I know feeding schedules can vary. No pet is alike. They all have a unique reason why we love them!
