WFH Dog Lovers

We love pets 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 with young 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 only take one dog at a time. 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.

Deb and Nicholas did a fantastic job taking care of my dog Artemis! They were very communicative and proactive when it came to her care. It was a relief knowing she was in good hands while I was away.

We are so happy we found Deb and Nicholas! Our dog came home so calm and happy. They sent lots of pictures and updates. We can’t wait to see them again

Deb and Nicholas love taking care of our Lazarus when they come visit. They are both genuine dog lovers, and dote on Lazarus. They are also very responsible. I would highly recommend them as a pet caregiver!

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.

Safety, trust & environment

We have enclosed front yard that the dogs can roam and do their potty breaks. If your dog is older, we have dog proof steps that we put on our wood floors to prevent our dog from slipping. We also have a new dog bed and dog stairs if needed.

A typical day

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

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 us know. Most importantly, we want to know what your pups favorite foods and treats and if your pet is allowed to have Pup Cups!
