Highlights
Pet care experience
Personal care: 1-2 dogs/cats 🏳️🌈
Stanford professional and gentle dog lover who works 5 days/week from home in South Beach Soma SF. I can only accommodate 1-2 dogs (max) in my 1-BR condo and as I build my boarding experience, giving your dog(s) personalized attention and hugs and love. If you have 2 dogs, they will totally love being alone with me in my clean, cozy condo! I send regular pics and videos to you, so you can have a happy and care-free trip/vacation! And take them down regularly for walks and bio-breaks. :) ADVANTAGES: - Small dog groups (1-2 maximum) - Personalized 1-on-1 attention - Flexible scheduling (appts and cancellations) - Convenient location (easy drop-off/pick-up) DISCLAIMER: I don’t have much experience with untrained puppies and older dogs with complex medication routines.

Ratings and reviews
Zubin did an amazing job with my dog Dino! He went above and beyond when Dino was having some bad allergies and went to the pet store to get special shampoo for him and bathed him! He was super communicative and sent lots of updates throughout. I could tell he was in good care :)
Zubin was a great dog sitter for our pups. He was very sweet with them and even took them on separate walks when he noticed their different energy levels. We will be rebooking!
Very responsive and sent plenty of pics. Would use again!
we loooved having Zubin as our dogsitter! Our dog is a little particular. It takes him a bit to warm up to people and he can be a little feisty on walks, but Zubin managed him so well! This is the most comfortable I think Mars has been with anyone outside of us. Zubin sent daily updates with great photos of Mars - we had so much peace of mind on our long trip. We will definitely come to Zubin whenever we need someone to watch Mars!
Thank you so much for taking such great care of Choo Choo! Communication was excellent, and you always responded quickly, which gave me peace of mind. I really appreciated the tour of your place, and I loved that you have a balcony where Choo Choo could hang out. You were also very accommodating with all of my requests. It was obvious that you genuinely cared about Choo Choo and wanted the best for him. I would definitely book with you again and highly recommend you to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter.
Zubin was great with my dog Mako! He took him on a great long walk while I was injured and couldn’t, sending me text updates throughout the walk. Mako seemed to be having a great time and he was very tuckered out when he got home. Thanks Zubin!

Schedule
I work from home 5 days/week and can take care of your dogs during the week and weekend (especially long/holiday weekends). I can take them for walks as often as needed, due to my flexible work hours (I barely have any meetings/Zoom calls). You can schedule drop-off and pick-up anytime during the day or night.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I live in a 800-sq ft 1-bedroom condo in South Beach SoMa, in the middle of the city, easy for drop-offs and pick-ups. Cute small balcony with artificial grass, where your dogs can sunbathe and enjoy fresh air for hours. Multiple elevators for going up and down (no stairs for your dog to climb). I only wish to accommodate 1 dog at a time, but 2 dogs are fine if they are siblings. If you have 2 dog siblings, this is the perfect place to drop them off, as they will be the only dogs with me.
A typical day
I barely have any meetings, so a flexible schedule allows me to walk your dogs and play with them throughout the day. The cutest little park in San Francisco is right next to my condo (South Park), a large, empty parking lot, as well as Embarcadero and fresh ocean air a few blocks away (if your dogs really love to walk).
