About: I’ve been caring for pets for over 7 years and genuinely love helping people who have busy schedules, long work days, or travel often. I know how important it is to have someone trustworthy caring for your pets while you’re away, and I treat every animal like they’re my own. I’m patient, dependable, and experienced with dogs of different sizes, ages, and personalities. I also have a 2-year-old Goldendoodle of my own, so I understand how important it is to make sure pets feel safe, happy, loved, and well cared for. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or just giving them attention and comfort, I always make sure every pet gets the care they deserve. I currently work part-time as a supervisor at Marinwood Pool, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to care for pets throughout the week. I enjoy staying active, so walks, playtime, hikes, and giving pets attention fit naturally into my daily routine. I’m reliable, responsive, and always make sure pets get the care and companionship they need while their owners are busy or away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I have a friendly 2-year-old Goldendoodle of my own and a safe, welcoming home where pets are welcome to stay if needed. However, I usually prefer overnight stays at the owner’s home because I know many pets feel most comfortable in their familiar environment and routine. I always make sure pets feel safe, loved, well cared for, and receive plenty of attention while you’re away.

Bing and his wife were amazing! There were extremely respectful, responsive and communicative. They gave my pup an extra long walk and even cleaned his feet before returning him home. I got lots of pictures and feedback from them. I highly recommend Bing and will definitely book again! Thank you!

About: Hi there! I'm a dog lover with an active lifestyle. I'm always looking to spend more time with furry friends. I'm available most days for dog sitting, walks or just drop in visits and would love to provide your pup with fun-filled, active days. My schedule is flexible and I'm happy to accommodate your specific needs, whether that means long walks, park visits, or just some quality cuddle time on the couch. I am available every day although my teenagers are with me Sunday through Wednesday. I may go out to do errands but can always change what I'm doing to meet your pets needs. Walks, overnights and everything in between are great on weekends. I live in a condo in the canal. We have plenty of outside space and use it frequently. There are plenty of dogs in the neighborhood and they can socialize at your discretion.

About: I grew up with cats and dogs and even started my own dog walking business when I was ten. I love animals … maybe even more than people. 😂 I’d be honored to care for your cats and dogs while you’re away. I would love to help you care for your pets when my children are at school…and if it’s okay for them to visit with your sweet dogs and cats as well I have TONS of flexibility all day. I am very careful with pets. They are part of the family. Please tell me what you feel comfortable with and I will follow the instructions to the last detail. I have so much love to give these animals and am hoping to get to spend my time with helping them not miss you too much while you’re away.

Edward was great with my two dogs. One is a one year old and the other is 12 years old. He was great at communicating with me when he got there, sending pictures of the dogs and when he finished the walk and how the dogs did. I would definitely recommend Edward for waking your dogs.

Thomas has been a life saver for us with our dog Guinness. He is always on time, he is reliable, he is patient with our somewhat moody, large dog, and he has become our regular walker 3x per week. Thomas is super responsive to messages and seems to genuinely enjoy spending time with Guinness. I highly recommend Thomas !

Janaki did a great job for us . She arrived on time and was able to make friends with our dog that has a bad tendency to over react when greeting newcomers, but Janaki was able to handle this well. We liked her photos on the walk especially charmed with phot of her holding two bags of poop.

About: I have always watched dogs and pet sat for people in my neighborhood, as well as for friends whenever they went out of town. I truly love both big and small dogs, and I enjoy spending time with animals of all personalities and energy levels. I am currently a college student and student-athlete who recently went through a very intense surgery. As part of my recovery, I am focusing on walking more because it has been great physical therapy for rebuilding my strength and mobility. Dog walking and pet sitting feels like the perfect fit for me right now because it allows me to stay active, continue healing, and do something I genuinely enjoy. Caring for pets gives me a meaningful way to work while staying on track with my rehabilitation. I am dependable, caring, and would treat your pets like they are my own. I nanny during the week days from 3-6 and outside of that I am pretty free. I am in San Rafael most days bc I go to school out here. However my home is in Benicia and I am out there sometimes. . I understand how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your animals and your home in someone else’s care, and I take that responsibility seriously. I would treat your pets like they are my own and your home with the utmost care and respect. I will mainly do dog walking and dog sitting. But I also love cats and other animals.

About: I have grown up with cats and dogs all of my life and have volunteered at the animal shelter on multiple occasions. I've dealt with all sizes, breeds, genders and personalities and want to meet more to give care and love. I work a full time job but some mornings, evenings or weekends I am available to help people if either they have a last minute emergency or want to plan a trip. If caring for a pet in the customer's environment, I would like to get a sense where everything is and what the pet needs. Be it food, bathroom schedules or special requests prior to sitting.

Jaimi and her daughter were amazing with my two dogs, Bumi and Lily. They took them on 30-minute walks to a dog play area, spent time playing with them, and even stayed longer to make sure both dogs were fully walked and able to use the bathroom. Communication was great throughout, and they were incredibly kind and attentive. Bumi and Lily were genuinely excited to see both Jaimi and her daughter, which says a lot. I’ll absolutely be booking them again for dog walking and pet care
