“After a last-minute cancellation, I turned to Rover and found Krystal. She was incredibly accommodating on short notice, taking great care of my three noisy Chihuahuas while I was away. She kept me updated with photos and reassured me that they were doing well. I highly recommend her and will be reaching out to Rover & Krystal in the future.”


“Maral dropped in on our puppy for an hour while we had to be out of the house for the day. Beforehand, she asked if we wanted help with training, which was fine by us, and she proceeded to send us multiple videos of the she was using while giving him a walk. He was having a great time while learning - Maral is absolutely recommended.”


“I don’t really need to explain why Rachel deserves 5 stars, she just does. She was communicative every step of the way and SO patient with my problem puppy (who really just a little anxious). She sent pics and updates every day, came once without pay, and deserves 7/5 stars, let’s be real. She was never ever late, never ever skipped, and made it so easy being thousands of miles away from my babes!”


“Andy was great, I highly recommend him! My dog Teddy took an immediate liking to him and looked happy and content in the photos and videos he sent. Andy followed my instructions and left my home neat and tidy. Communication was excellent before and during the visit.”


About: Hi! I’m Sarah. I’m a huge animal lover and long-time pet owner. I have several years’ experience caring for friends’ dogs of all sizes, including walks, visits, and boarding in my home. I am caring, responsible, friendly, and communicative. I grew up with dogs and cats - as well as guinea pigs, a frog, birds, a gecko, a mouse, and a bunny. I currently own two cats and a dachshund. I am currently taking time off from my career in financial services and looking to spend time with animals and earn a little extra income in the meantime. I am generally available and flexible on weekdays. I am attentive to detail and follow instructions very well. I want to be sure your dog feels comfortable, safe, and happy at all times. I understand a variety of dog personalities, traits, and triggers and will respect any guidelines you lay out (e.g. avoid other dogs while walking if your dog is leash reactive).

About: I grew up around animals. My senior bichon-poodle passed away in June 2024. Although I am not ready to commit to another pet I am committed to hanging out with your fur baby auntie style! I love staying active and I walk/run every morning and it would be more motivating with a furry friend who loves walks too. *I work as a medical assistant and have past experience with senior dogs so I am comfortable giving medications* I work full time but have time to walk/check on your fur baby Wednesday's, Thursday's, and Friday's in the mornings. I am off Saturday through Monday ! I care for pets as if they’re my own. I’ll treat them with care and compassion. The park I live by is a great place for a good morning walk.

About: Having been raised around dogs and cats my entire childhood, as well as raising my own pets since adulthood, I am more than excited to take care of yours! I am wide open during summertime, but work school hours during the school year. I have open availability on the weekends and after school for both overnights and walks. During the day, I would be able to take your pup out in the am, at lunch and afterschool. My friends joke that my dog is my fourth child and they are definitely correct. I believe in routines first, of course, but also letting a dog guide you as the day goes on.


“Heather is so communities and gentles with the 3 cats 2 who stay hidden but were relaxed when I returned.”


About: Hi there! My name is Bella, and I’d love to help care for your furry friends. I have six years of experience with pet and house sitting. I used to volunteer at the humane society so I am very familiar and comfortable with animals and their needs. I’m local to Sausalito, and am happy to help you out if you’re located in Marin. I’m partial to cats, as I have a kitty of my own, but I also grew up with dogs, and would love to meet your pup! Feel free to shoot me a message if you have any questions! I work a hybrid job, so I am in office a few days a week, but my schedule is flexible. I’m most free in the mornings, evenings, and on weekends, but can work in some afternoons as well! Communication is key! Please let me know if there are any special circumstances related safety for your pet. Personally, I keep cameras around my home for ease of mind, so I understand if you do the same.

About: Hello, my name is Aria. I absolutely adore animals especially dogs. I used to have a dog walking business; hikes, play time, feeding, house sitting, you name it i’ve done it! All around my neighborhoods I have taken care of dogs. One of my favourite things to do is go on a hike with a pup! I have flexible hours and would love to help out and take care of some pups! As stated above I am extremely flexible. No commitments as it is summer! I love being in nature and have had a lot of free time. Overall pretty open! Because I am such a dog lover I love spending time with them either on walks or inside the home. If a dog needs to be watched more carefully I have no problem with that! My backyard is free range with a fence where they can roam at all hours and overall i’m very gentle and loving with them.

“Alicia (and her daughters) took a good care about our kitty; provided her with so much needed attention and company, while we were away! And she also brought our deliveries inside and stacked them neatly! Very grateful and looking forward to turn to Alicia again in future.”

About: While I’m new to professional pet sitting, I bring a lifelong love for animals and hands on experience caring for both cats and dogs. I’ve grown up with pets and have been a dedicated cat and dog owner for years. I currently own an eight year old Chihuahua and three cats of varying ages. I understand how much love, patience, and attention our pet family requires. I’ve cat-sat for friends and am comfortable with feeding routines, litter boxes, walks, playtime, and giving lots of love! I would love to take on jobs for dogs as well! I recently started volunteering at Marin Humane Society, where I learned about animal behavior, care, and enrichment from professionals. My long-term goal is to study Animal Science and pursue a career in animal care. I’m reliable, compassionate, and always happy to tailor my care to your pet’s unique needs and quirks. Pet care is already a big part of my daily life! I take care of one dog and three cats every day, making sure they’re well fed, loved, and active. I feed them in the morning and evening, play with them using their favorite toys, and walk the dog daily. Caring for animals isn’t just a task for me, it’s something I genuinely enjoy and prioritize throughout my day. It brings me a lot of joy and keeps me in tune with what pets need to feel safe, happy, and well cared for. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine consistent so they feel safe and comfortable in their own space. I make sure to follow all instructions closely whether it’s feeding schedules, walk times, play preferences, or any special needs. I always treat the client’s home with respect and keep things clean and organized. I give pets lots of love, attention, and enrichment while also being mindful of their comfort levels especially if they’re shy or adjusting to someone new. My goal is to make their time without you as stress free and happy as possible.

About: Hello there! I am a loving pet caregiver and house nurturer living in Marin. I enjoy taking care of animals and people's homes as if they were my very own, with love, respect and better than you left it. I enjoy doing yoga, restorative yoga and adventuring in nature in my spare time. I just finished my 600 hour massage license and 6 month Reiki energy training! My hope is that these intuitive and intentional skills will help assist in a loving and nurturing approach to your pets care needs. I look forward to the opportunity to take care of your special fur-family member and home. Warmly, Adrienne I currently work at Good Earth in the Wellness Department and have early mornings, lunch (1pm) and evenings (after 5:30pm) open for feeding, walks and checkins! I currently care for pets overnight in their homes and do not offer boarding service at this time. You can rest assure that I provide a respectful and loving approach to all homes I take care of. 🏡 💛

“Samantha was fantastic — reliable, caring, and great with our 2 cats. We loved the updates and came home to happy kitties and a tidy home. Highly recommend!!”


About: Hi, I’m Connor! What sets me apart is that I’ve been surrounded by expert-level dog care my entire life. My mom was a vet tech for over 10 years, and for the past 20, she’s been a professional dog walker, boarder, and trainer. Growing up in that environment, I’ve gained hands-on experience with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. Whether it’s walking, boarding, or just giving them lots of love and attention, I genuinely enjoy caring for dogs like they’re part of the family. Pet care is my full-time job, so I’m available 7 days a week for dog walking, drop-ins, and house sitting. I have a completely open and flexible schedule, which means I can follow your pet’s routine exactly — whether that’s early morning walks, midday check-ins, evening feedings, or overnight stays. I’m reliable, responsive, and fully dedicated to keeping your pets safe, happy, and loved while you're away. When caring for pets in their own home, I prioritize safety, comfort, and respect for your space. I follow your instructions closely to keep your pet’s routine consistent and reduce stress. During walks and visits, I make sure all doors and gates are securely closed and never leave your pet unattended outside. I keep open communication with you throughout my visits, providing updates and photos to give you peace of mind. Your pet’s safety and well-being, along with respect for your home, are my top priorities.

About: I’ve had 2 dogs most of my life. I have also walked, fed and bathe pets around my neighborhood and have multiple pets I will look after during the holidays Im currently visiting home for the summer and working on the weekdays, but can do walks and boarding most days of the week. I have a nice little park right next to my house I can walk the dogs multiple times a day. They will get lots of love and attention, along with following the exact instructions of the owner:) I’m working part time currently, so have plenty of time to take care of your pets. I work during the day, but can do walks and boarding most days. I have a house and my room is big with a backyard for the dogs. I can have dogs in the crate if they need to be. I give lots of attention and make sure I go over the to do list.

About: Hi there, I'm Ally! 🐕💕 Need an extra set of paws to help keep your furry friend happy, active, and loved while you’re busy? I’d love to be your go-to dog walker! I've been surrounded by animals my entire life. With years of experience caring for pets of all sizes and personalities, I know how important it is that your dog gets the exercise, attention, and care they deserve. Whether they love sniffing every tree, zooming around the park, or just soaking up some sunshine, I’ll match their pace and personality with a whole lot of love. 🌿 What you can expect: 🐾 Long or short walks tailored to your dog’s energy level - available for hikes too! 🐾 Extra patience for shy or senior pups 🐾 Playful adventures & plenty of petting (if they’re into that!) 🐾 Safe, responsible care— & great communication Let’s make your pup’s day a little brighter! I currently have a flexible schedule that can accommodate walks pretty much anytime during the day, on weekdays and weekends - however frequently you wish! I'm not currently offering overnight stays for pets in my home, but I have some flexibility and openness to come to yours. I am very communicative & respectful of space, and leave homes the way I find them - maybe even better!

About: Fur babies are no different than human babies, and I think they deserve even more care and attention when they are with a sitter since they miss their owners and already experience some level of separation anxiety. Good news is with me your dog will be so busy playing with another puppy during the day, and exploring parks, beach, hikes, or walking around time after my normal work hours. If they get too dirty while playing grooming Is available in house , and training can be offered for dogs that are too disobedient per your request. Tail wagging guaranteed! I work remote Friday & Monday allowing me flexibility to take care of other dogs. I have a very friendly chow, and am looking for new play buddies for him on the weekends. I no longer accept Pets into my own home, but open to sitting at pet parents house. Letting the dog be on or off leash is based on owner discretion.


About: Animals have always been at the center of my life. Training horses and dogs is second nature to me. I have a degree in ethology (animal behavior) and a proven track record being able to communicate with and improve the confidence of animals in my care. Starting during Covid I have had a steady influx of boarding requests first just for friends and it grew into a viable business through word of mouth. Right now I can host dogs but I am available for walks, check-ins, or overnights at your house. I am home full time and when I leave I typically bring the pups with me. My style isn’t to try and replicate exactly what they are used to at your house. Here, I am the leader and they follow and adjust to my rules and preferences. It works on every dog. Yes- Even yours. The yard is safely fenced, the house has plenty of room to explore and sprawl out. Team building starts immediately. Toys and treats and snuggles are not starter currency here. Rewards are respect and access. Clarity is kindness and my leadership is not confusing. Everything in my house is mine and I make all the rules and decisions. We have boundaries and then we have calm and only then do we have fun. And be assured we have great fun :)

“Catherine was really great with the animals and I would highly recommend having her watch your pets! She was really accommodating to my last-minute request, and helped out while I was out of town. She even sent pictures of my animals and made sure to check in. I would definitely rebook her for future visits”

Sarah B.
“Sarah is truly the best and she is definitely Archie's favorite pup sitter! Sarah has been watching our golden retriever since he was a puppy for walks and while we're on vacation. She takes him on great neighborhood walks or hikes on the trails and we know he's in good hands with her. She's great with communication and sends lots of updates along the way. Anyone is lucky to work with Sarah, she is an animal lover and also a great person.”


Serina S.
“Serina was lovely when watching my 2 year old cat and senior chihuahua while on vacation. I am really nervous when it comes to my chihuahua specifically as she is blind and has no teeth. So needs more care and attention Day to day. Serina followed my care instructions perfectly for both pets and was attentive to my chihuahua as she can get very overwhelmed and depressed when we are not home. I highly recommend Serina to take care of your pets and will continue to book with her!”

It’s clear how much care and attention she puts into her work and my cat absolutely adores her. My cat is on the fearful side and she was extremely patient and clearly knows how to approach cats like this. On top of that, she takes great care of my home and leaves everything just as she found it. I fully trust her and can’t recommend her highly enough!”

Nick S.
“Nick is an outstanding teenager on all fronts who I have had the pleasure of knowing for the past 10 years. He has always been a standout for me among his peers. Nick is one of the most polite, thoughtful, positive and engaging teenagers I know and my expectations are high. He is always prompt, considerate and goes above and beyond with regard to anything I request. He is communicative, kind and organized and truly cares about and loves animals. Nick is also a strong team player, he has the ability to remain in control and calm under pressure and is a true problem solver. But what strikes me the most about Nick is his compassion for and understanding of others and animals. I have always been able to completely count on and trust Nick with my 100 lb Labrador dog along with any other responsibility. Nick would be an amazing employee and a great addition to the team. Clients and their pets will love Nick.”


Allyson C.
“Ally has cared for our Bernedoodle Archie multiple times, and he absolutely loves her. She really cares about him, and makes sure he gets enough walking in while tending to anything that needs attention (medications, etc). She's a lover of cats and dogs and I recommend her for any of your pet sitting needs.”

Margaret F.
“Meg is the best person you could ever have to look after your dog. We have an older (large breed) dog with many health issues so we can’t have just anyone look after him. Aside from the usual TLC that any dog requires, he needs numerous pills on a timetable each day and sometimes trips to the vet-so we really need someone with a natural feeling for animals and good judgment. My husband and I will only travel at the same time if Meg is available because we know that with Meg our big boy is getting care as good as we ourselves could give him. She is communicative, respectful and responsive so we never have to wonder what is going on. We had tried a few other caregivers before we found Meg and the comfort we have with her level of care, attention to detail and judgment, make it so that we can relax when we’re away, knowing that he’s in the best hands.”
