Information Deb & Nicholas D. would like to know about your pet

Our house does have stairs so let us know if that's an issue. We had to take care of our aging dog so if you need any medicines administered or things we should stay away from just let me know. Most importantly, we want to know what your pups favorite foods and treats and if your pet is allowed to have Pup Cups!

A typical day

We will play with your dog's and their favorite toys, take sniff walks in the neighborhood and Golden Gate Park (and fetch if they like), and of course spoiled with dog treats.

Pet care experience

My son Nicholas and I have have been lifetime animal & dog people, and have had multiple dogs in our lifetimes. We both work from home, and share a love for taking care of animals. Our dog of almost 14 years passed away last year, and while we aren't ready to get a dog again, we've been missing the energy of having a dog in our home. We're experienced with both puppy's and senior dogs, as well as the health & aging related cycles of pet-owning, having cared for our dog through cancer treatments, kidney disease, arthritis, and more. We live near Golden Gate Park and love taking walks in our neighborhood and in the park and happy to walk your dog in their favorite neighborhoods! We've been part of this platform as pet parents for over 10 years, so we understand the process from both sides. Our experience has taught us the importance of asking thoughtful questions before every stay to ensure your pet receives the personalized care, comfort, and attention they deserve.

Nicholas was our next-door neighbor and cat sitter when we lived in San Francisco, and we got to know him pretty well. Our cat, Anna, was old and picky, and hissed at everyone who wasn’t family. But Nicholas won her over. He is quiet, patient, and responsible. Anna has gone to cat heaven, but I am eternally grateful for the care and attention Nicholas provided.

Nicholas has cared for my English Lab, Bear, and I would absolutely trust him to provide safe, loving care for any pet. Bear loves going on walks, even though he moves very slowly these days, and Nicholas has always been incredibly patient and kind with him. Deb is dependable and truly treats pets like family. She’s also wonderful with people, friendly, trustworthy, and easy to communicate with. Anyone would be lucky to have them caring for their pets.

I can’t say enough about how wonderful Deb is with my two doodles. Honestly, I don’t know who is more excited to see her, me or Clover & Lucky. They know that if she is in town, they are going on the best walk and getting tons of love and pets.
