Caring Companion For Your Canine!

Pet care experience

Welcome! I’ve loved and taken care of dogs for over 10 years. I have experience with puppies,older dogs and reactive dogs. I know how to administer medication, bathe fickle dogs, and worked with dogs that are apprehensive towards new people. I love taking dogs on long walks, playing tug a war but also maintaining rules/boundaries of the owner. I am currently working full time so I am available after work from 4 and can do overnights. Furthermore, I am available a on weekends for overnights and drop ins. My schedule is quite flexible during the holidays because I have frequent breaks as a teacher ( summer, winter, fall) in which I can dog sit anytime. I keep a close eye on the dogs and am very respectful of others homes. I like to stick with the routines the owner has in place for their dog so the dog feels comfortable. I like to provide the dog with lots of attention and interaction so they are stimulated. I am a warm but also firm caregiver. I am very clean and respectful of your personal space.

She was super respectful in our home and our dogs seemed to be happy and healthy when we came back. We’ll definitely want her to watch our dogs again!

Saumya is the best pet sitter! She has several years of experience taking care of dogs since she grew up with a family dog. She took care of my dogs Levi and Maya, and they love her. She made sure they were well exercised, took them on several walks, took them to the park, and they were very happy when I came home. She was extremely responsive, and sent me several pics which I appreciated it. I don't trust many people to watch my dogs, and Saumya is the only Rover sitter I use when I go out of town. I strongly recommend Saumya for al your pet sitting needs. She is the absolute best!

Saumya is very caring and loving and takes care of my dog whenever go on vacation. He spends time walking him at least twice day or taking him to the park. I trust her and confident to leave my dog her in care of her not one day not two weeks but for sometimes for a month. My dog kobe is always happy to be with her and shows that he was happy I. Her care,

A typical day

I like to keep the dog stimulated. So I like to go on long walks if the dog is leash trained. I also will take the dog to the park and throw the ball around. My favorite places to walk are on trails and around lake Merritt. I also like taking dogs to the bay trail to walk around.
