Highlights
Pet care experience
Experienced part-time sitter/walker
Hello! My name is May and I’m an experienced dog sitter and foster who is currently residing in Russian Hill. I’m currently employed full-time on weekdays but am fully remote and have time/flexibility for walking and sitting. In terms of my experience, I’ve grown up with all types of dogs, from labs to pit bulls, and love them all! Apart from owning dogs, I fostered in NYC through Hearts and Bones Rescue, caring for 10+ dogs. While living in NYC for 4 years, I was also a staff volunteer at the rescue, working with approving foster applications and volunteer events - i have a wonderful network of dog fosters, owners, and professionals to support me! Caring for and walking your dogs will not only benefit you but also will be sure to brighten my day! ** unfortunately, my new apartment has a strict no pet rule, even for short stays. I am currently unable to board, but happy to help with home stays, drop ins & walking as needed! **
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
Over the past eight years working through Rover and four years providing full time foster care through a rescue in NYC, I have learned so much from my experiences and organizations! I always err on the side of safety and caution and am meticulous at following owner directions. I am extremely gentle and loving with animals and believe in positive reinforcement rather than punishment. For your dogs safety, they will always be leashed while outside and I will crate (if crate is provided) if leaving them home alone is an issue! I provide necessary boundaries and stick to a fairly consistent routine.
Ratings and reviews
May was fantastic! She took great care of Ellie, followed her routine perfectly, and left our house spotless. We loved her updates and especially the adorable photos! Ellie was so happy when we got home, and we could tell she was in great hands. We’d absolutely recommend May and would happily book her again!
May is really awesome! She took great care of our dog. He trusted her right away. They went on a long walk together and she kept him very safe. We recommend May!!!
May stayed with our 6.5 year old mini golden doodle, Winnie over a long weekend. May is so sweet, thoughtful, and communicative. She updated us with pics of Winnie and plans for their day every morning/evening. We returned to find Winnie very loved and so happy. Thank you so much, May! We highly recommend to anyone in SF looking for a dog sitter! :)
May took such great and attentive care of Hank and left the house in great shape as well. Many photo updates and he was in great spirits after we returned home. Highly recommend!
May is the best! Our dog Junie loves her and she’s always so communicative with us.
This was our first experience with Rover and we're so happy to have found May. She's communicative, on time, thorough, and the pups love her. Will definitely book her again.

Schedule
I am a remote worker currently living alone- I have all the flexibility in the word to care for and provide attention to your pet!
- Cats0 to 15 lbs16 to 40 lbs41 to 100 lbsover 101 lbsMay can host up to 1 drop-in per day
- Ahead of a stay of like parents to provide as much information as possible! The more the better - don’t worry about overwhelming me! Specifically, I like to know their feeding and exercise schedule in addition to any medications or treatments they require. I request that parents provide an emergency contact number as well as their vet details. Please also let me know the boundaries you set with your pet - ie are they allowed on furniture, can they eat people food, do you crate them, do they sleep in your bedroom etc? Any behavioral information is also requested. I need to know if they have any reactive tendencies - leash reactivity, prey drive, food guarding etc and if they are ok with other humans and animals!
