“Krysta did a fantastic job with our cat Kevi, she was very attentive to her and was also able to adapt to a myriad of scheduling changes that came up last minute without hesitation. She is a life saver and we look forward to booking with her again in the future.”
“Maral dropped in on our puppy for an hour while we had to be out of the house for the day. Beforehand, she asked if we wanted help with training, which was fine by us, and she proceeded to send us multiple videos of the she was using while giving him a walk. He was having a great time while learning - Maral is absolutely recommended.”
About: I grew up around animals. My senior bichon-poodle passed away in June 2024. Although I am not ready to commit to another pet I am committed to hanging out with your fur baby auntie style! I love staying active and I walk/run every morning and it would be more motivating with a furry friend who loves walks too. *I work as a medical assistant and have past experience with senior dogs so I am comfortable giving medications* I work full time but have time to walk/check on your fur baby Wednesday's, Thursday's, and Friday's in the mornings. I am off Saturday through Monday ! I care for pets as if they’re my own. I’ll treat them with care and compassion. The park I live by is a great place for a good morning walk.
“Andy was great, I highly recommend him! My dog Teddy took an immediate liking to him and looked happy and content in the photos and videos he sent. Andy followed my instructions and left my home neat and tidy. Communication was excellent before and during the visit.”
About: I’ve been around animals my whole life—dogs, cats, and even therapeutic horses—and caring for them is something I take seriously (and I love dearly) 🐕🦺 I’m an avid walker and dog lover, so I am more than happy to walk your pup anytime! Morning, afternoons or early evenings work great. Your pet’s safety is my top priority. I always double-check leashes, harnesses, and gates, and I’m alert to any signs of stress, discomfort, or unusual behavior. Above all, I treat every pet like they’re my own—with patience, empathy, and respect for their unique personality and needs.
“Kristen is exactly who you want to care for your cat. Above and beyond, friendly, and dependable. We are new to the area, and my cat is still establishing his territory, cat door busted and some coordination with the gardners and cat door situation had me stressed but she solved the issue and Frankie came back and I am extremely grateful that she was there. Pretty amazing for the first visit! 😸”
“Heather is so communities and gentles with the 3 cats 2 who stay hidden but were relaxed when I returned.”
About: Hello, my name is Aria. I absolutely adore animals especially dogs. I used to have a dog walking business; hikes, play time, feeding, house sitting, you name it i’ve done it! All around my neighborhoods I have taken care of dogs. One of my favourite things to do is go on a hike with a pup! I have flexible hours and would love to help out and take care of some pups! As stated above I am extremely flexible. No commitments as it is summer! I love being in nature and have had a lot of free time. Overall pretty open! Because I am such a dog lover I love spending time with them either on walks or inside the home. If a dog needs to be watched more carefully I have no problem with that! My backyard is free range with a fence where they can roam at all hours and overall i’m very gentle and loving with them.
About: I have a 9 year old goldendoodle at home with my parents. Before getting him when I was 13 years old, I had been begging my parents for 5 years. I would walk other peoples dogs, write essays, research on how to train and take care of dogs. Eventually my parents gave in but they made me do all the work (which I was so happy to do). I walked him, taught him how to swim, went on many hiking adventures, and even ended up training him to be a therapy dog. Now he is older, I love to snuggle him, take him on slow morning walks, and just sit by his side outside. I just moved to San Francisco and am missing my dog dearly so I would love to help you take care of your dog or pet. I currently am working full time so I am available any day after 5:30pm. I am also available all day on the weekends. I cannot house pets in my current apartment but I am willing to travel. I will take care of your pets by your directions. In my home we feed my dog twice a day, he's not allowed to go into certain parts of the home, has to sit and ask to go outside. For walks, I trained my dog to walk on leash with no pulling or off leash. I am comfortable with whatever and will follow your direction and rules for your dog. Consistency is key for pet behavior
About: Having been raised around dogs and cats my entire childhood, as well as raising my own pets since adulthood, I am more than excited to take care of yours! I am wide open during summertime, but work school hours during the school year. I have open availability on the weekends and after school for both overnights and walks. During the day, I would be able to take your pup out in the am, at lunch and afterschool. My friends joke that my dog is my fourth child and they are definitely correct. I believe in routines first, of course, but also letting a dog guide you as the day goes on.
“Louise did a great job with cat care on short notice. I think it was the Thursday before a Sunday departure when I first contacted her, and she scheduled a meet and greet, then took good care of the cats. I recommend.”
“Thanks so much for taking Bill out on a couple of fun walks today!!”
About: I’ve always loved hanging out with a fur baby close by. I can’t commit full time to one myself… so i’m excited to be auntie to yours! I work remotely so pretty easily. Love any excuse to get out for walks around the neighborhood. And if they prefer more chill vibes, they can pick their fav spot any hang there. No pets of my own at home, so happy to cater to whatever yours may need. Plenty of options and space for whatever they may need.
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life, including whippets, pit bulls, and hounds like Weimaraners. I raised my Weimaraner from a few months old to his current age of 8, so I have experience with puppies as well as senior dogs. I’ve cared for many dogs with great outcomes and can provide references if needed. I treat every dog like family—just like I do my own! my schedule is very flexible throughout the entire week. I’m also available during the day, making it easy to adjust to different pet care needs. I have one dog who is great with other dogs and a spacious home with a big deck and living room. I make sure to take my dog on at least two walks a day to the park, offering plenty of outdoor exercise. While I can crate dogs if needed, I prefer spending quality time with pets to ensure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable in my care.
About: I’ve been responsible for taking care of my family’s dogs, foster dogs, neighbors cats, and other friends pets of all sorts since I was 15, and have always loved giving them not only food and water but also the love and activity they need to thrive! I’ve taken dogs for long or short walks, stopped in to feed cats, or stayed overnight for multiple days for full pet care experience. I’ve missed caring for pets since moving away for school and am excited to spend time with animals again, especially by taking them on walks around the neighborhoods or caring for them in their homes! I’m working full time, but some days I work from home and am very active on weekends and evenings - which is especially why I’m looking to walk dogs, including them in this active lifestyle outside of weekday 9-5 work. As I am mostly looking to walk dogs or house sit. I am very focused on safety and trust in terms of keeping dogs in pedestrian friendly areas and away from busy streets, and am prepared to bring all of the bags and treats needed to keep dogs happy and the environment cleaned up after them. I also am happy to work with the dog’s needs at home in terms feeding schedule, exercise, medication, or affection to cater to their typical lifestyle so they feel the most comfortable.
“Kathryn was great, flexible after i made a mistake. Teddybear loved his visit!”
About: Sadly our family dog recently passed. She was 14 and we had her from the time she was a puppy so we have experience with dogs in all phases of life. We are a family of 4, two boys ages 9 and 13. We have a great gated backyard and also live across the street from a park and a dog park. If your pet wants to play there are plenty of options and if your dog is chill we could do that too. We miss having a dog in our home so are excited to have pet guests. Your dog will have access to the entire house (minus the bedrooms) as well as the outside fenced perimeter of the house. I will make sure your pet is getting the attention, cuddles, potty breaks, and the fresh air that they want/need. MY 14-year Bost Terrier passed last month so I have no pets in the house anymore. We built a fence around the perimeter of the house for our dog so there is plenty of space in the front and back yard for your dog to explore around safely if they want. There is also a nice big park/field and a separate dog park across the street from my house. There are plenty of places for me to take your pet out to stretch their legs and get some energy out.
“She was dependable and showed up on time, spending the full time with our pup. Our dog loved her, she was great at sending update photos which we love, and she was quick to respond to messages. Highly recommend!”
“BEST SITTER! I had an emergency and Sian was able to walk my boy at short notice. She was prompt and sent me pics that Beni was taken care of. Will definitely be using Sian again!”
About: Why me? I’m a mom of two lovely kids, it means I am a very caring, responsible, and organized person. I’ve had animals all my life, and each one was surrounded with love and attention. I create a calm, warm environment where pets feel safe and happy. I’m available anytime that works best for you and your pet mornings, evenings, weekends or even last-minute. I’ll be happy to help you with your pets! I’m a clean and caring person. I always check what your dog eats, drinks, and how they feel. I can recognise that pets can be sad or nervous when their owners are away, so I give them love and attention. I will watch your pet closely and send you updates to make sure they are happy and safe.

They’re always so comfortable around her—my dog is excited to see her, and even my cat, who’s usually standoffish, seems at ease. She has a calm, caring energy that the animals clearly respond to. I always feel confident leaving them in her care, knowing they’re in good hands. Lisette truly loves what she does, and it shows!”

Beforehand, she asked if we wanted help with training, which was fine by us, and she proceeded to send us multiple videos of the she was using while giving him a walk. He was having a great time while learning - Maral is absolutely recommended.
As soon as you meet Leo, you know your fur kids are in the right hands. He is very thoughtful, caring, detail-oriented, reliable, responsible, respectful and friendly. He takes great pics. I look forward to having him watch over my fur babies again. Super grateful we met!
Tiffany is our #1 sitter! She is highly attentive, communicative and goes above and beyond to care for our beagle. She noticed when our automated feeder was empty and made an extra visit just to make sure it was refilled and our pup got her food. Tiffany is a great photographer and sends us the sweetest pictures to let us know that our dog is having the best time! Thank you Tiffany!
Katelyn took care of my cat, Nutella, better than I ever could! She didn’t just stop by to check on her, she made sure every little detail was perfect and showed such a deep, caring level of attention. Katelyn gave Nutella plenty of pets, played with her, brushed her, and even brought a laser toy to keep her entertained. She is truly amazing, and I can confidently say I’ve found my forever cat sitter. Nutella absolutely loves her, and I couldn’t recommend Katelyn enough.
BEST SITTER! I had an emergency and Sian was able to walk my boy at short notice. She was prompt and sent me pics that Beni was taken care of. Will definitely be using Sian again!
Hannah did an awesome job with Nugget and even went out of her way to put away some prepped meal deliveries I had forgotten to cancel. Highly recommend!
All the stars for Kelley! Tigger’s pure unbridled joy for being with Kelley makes leaving him easier. He is a big strong energetic dog so not for everyone but Kelley is confident, calm and playful with him and he absolutely loves her visits.
Yuki has been a great caregiver to our dog and made extra effort to help bring in packages. We are so grateful for her help!
Heather, Takes care of the cats, the house and with an easy communication that makes a relaxing trip away.
Cheyenne was so conscientious in sending us pictures and communicating while we were away, very very pleased!
Rachel is a superstar. Went above and beyond for our pets, noting their behavior, brining them toys, did an extra visit, and adjusted her schedule to watch our kitties when our flights were delayed and we have to stay away longer. She’s the best!
Once again, Cheryl kept me at ease while I was away by giving my cat plenty of attention and care and playtime, as well as keeping her fed and hydrated while I was away Cheryl sends frequent updates and plenty of photos, which helps me stay reassured that my cat Maize is in good hands 🐱😊
Teddy had a great time with Andy today! They walked far and wide, and have been bonding with each other. I highly recommend Andy!
Maureen took good care of my adult cat while I was away. My cat (Sadie) is not the most friendly with most people and hides when strangers are in my home. I was happy to see her out and about in the photos. Animals sense good vibes with Maureen. Thank you, Maureen, for being so thorough with my cat. I would not hesitate to rebook with Maureen.
Polly is so amazing with Benny. I love how much he loves to hang out with her and appreciate her updates so much. Thanks, Polly!
Zoe has been outstanding taking care of my kitty while I was out of town for the week. My cat loves her! She sent photos and frequent updates, following all of her finicky preferences. Would highly recommend!
Aine is great with our kitties. Puts us at ease while we are gone to know they are in such great hands.
Alacia did a good job taking care of my kitties Gus & Mavis. I really feel she went above & beyond making them feel comfortable while I was out of town. One tiny complaint I have is that our water bowl was empty and dry when I got home so i’m not sure how long they were without water for, they drank immediately after filling it up so that was disappointing. Other than that Alacia was amazing, super kind, and gave good updates regarding the kitties behaviors. She also sent pictures which I appreciated. Overall good job 😸👍
