About: I’ve owned and cared for pets throughout my whole life, including dogs, cats, freshwater fish, birds, rabbits, reptiles, and aquariums. I’m currently the proud owner of two cats, several fish, and a snake, so caring for animals is already a big part of my daily life. I grew up around Golden Retrievers, German Shepherds, Poodles, Corgis, and many different cats. I have experience with small dogs, large dogs, puppies, and senior dogs, and I’m comfortable adjusting care based on each pet’s personality, energy level, and routine. I’d love to watch your fur baby while you’re busy! Depending on your pet’s needs, we can go for walks, runs, hikes, playtime, or even visit a local dog park if that’s something they enjoy. I’m also comfortable helping with cats, fish, and reptiles, including snakes. I can follow care instructions for feeding, litter boxes, tank checks, lights, temperatures, humidity, water quality, and basic enclosure needs. I’m currently available after 9 AM and will respond as quickly as I can. I’m happy to travel within the South Bay, Milpitas, and Fremont areas. I look forward to meeting you and your fabulous pet family! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because caring for animals is already a big part of my life. I have experience with dogs, cats, fish, aquariums, and reptiles, so I’m comfortable with a variety of care routines. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, feeding, playtime, basic habitat checks, and weekend care. I treat every pet like they’re my own and always follow care instructions carefully. I’m comfortable caring for dogs, cats, fish, and reptiles, including pets that need patience, a calm approach, or specific routines. I pay close attention to food, water, leashes, doors, gates, tank conditions, temperatures, humidity, enclosure security, and each pet’s comfort level.

“Zhengjun is amazing! She’s very reliable and great with communication, always sending lots of photos and updates. My dog absolutely loves her. I’m so grateful for her extra care on rainy days, making sure my dog is clean and dry before heading back into his crate. Highly recommend her services to anyone looking for a thoughtful and caring walker!”

“Omigosh, let me just say. I absolutely LOVED Laurelle! She met us for a meet and greet the weekend right before our trip and she was so loving and caring with our fur babies. I know that I am a helicopter paw parent, and I felt so comfortable and safe having her stop by and take our dogs for walks. I mentioned my fear of Minnie getting lose (she’s a crazy puppy) and she assured me she would be safe. And she went the extra mile to inform me that she had her heavy duty waist harness so there’s absolute no way she could get lose. She does a BEAUTIFUL, Summary of the walks and adds lots of pictures. She is my GO TO!”

About: I’ve had the joy of seeing my own dogs and cats grow from tiny puppies and kittens into beloved seniors (16+ years old), caring for them through every stage of their lives. I understand how much love and importance they hold in our families, and how deeply we cherish their companionship. What sets me apart is the heartfelt care and experience I bring. I’ve cared for pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities, and I’m comfortable with everything from energetic walks to gentle senior care. Whether it’s giving medications, providing extra patience with older pets, or simply showering them with love and attention, I treat every pet as if they were my own. It’s a true joy and privilege for me to look after these little four-legged angels while giving peace of mind to their families. Pet care is naturally part of my daily life. I make sure pets in my care get plenty of attention, walks, and companionship throughout the day. I’m very mindful of their routines, and I always prioritize their needs — from morning walks to afternoon playtime and everything in between.So they always feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Providing a calm and attentive environment is very important to me, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. When pets stay in my home, they are treated like family. I let them explore the space freely, relax on the couch, and even sleep with me if that’s what they’re used to, but I always make sure to follow the owner’s rules and preferences, whether the pet is staying at my home or I’m caring for them in their home. I want them to feel as comfortable and loved as they do at home. I live very close to a beautiful park with a dog park and walking trail, which is perfect for daily walks, playtime, and giving them a fun outdoor adventure.
About: I always loved dogs since my childhood but couldn’t have one till 5 years ago. The pandemic time seemed the perfect time to get a puppy. I’ve a samoyed dog named Caesar whom we’ve had since he was 8 weeks old. Hence, I do have experience looking after puppies. I also have experience with house training and crate training, if necessary. Note: I won’t be accepting breeds like pitbull, huskies and german shepherds. I’m currently not working so I will be home all day to look after your fur baby. There might be occasional 1-2 hours that I might be out running errands but I will almost always be home. I’ve a fenced backyard and a very friendly 5-yr old dog. I also have a kid who is 3.5 years old, hence I would kindly request any potential client to make sure that your fur babies are friendly with other dogs and kids. If in doubt, please ping me before booking with me. I can give potty breaks as often as necessary and can also take them out on walks twice a day.
About: I have grown up with dogs, cats, and many more different types of animals! I love taking dogs on walks and runs and playing with cats. I have experience with all types of personalities (loving, aggressive, shy, etc.) and can read animal behavior very well. I also have some experience teaching dogs tricks! I am a recent graduate with a B.S. in Biology and am looking to get more experience working with animals! That being said, I currently have a very flexible and open schedule. I am available mostly during the week days but can do weekends as well. I currently do not have a pet but previously, I would walk my dog once or twice a day and play with her often. When I have lived with cats, I would play with them using stringed cat toys. I believe that all animals should get some form of attention everyday to keep them mentally and physically stimulated. With all animals I typically feed them once in the morning and once at night.
About: Hi, my name is Sheela and I do Dog-sitting out of my own house. I have had a German Rottweiler and 2 bunnies myself in the past. I loved them dearly and always provided the absolute best care for them. I have done pet-sitting for my sister's German Shepherd and Terrier mix and my friend's Chihuahua mix. Just recently I boarded 2 wonderful Bulldogs at my house for 3 months while their Guardian was traveling for work and also had a lovely Old English Sheepdog stay with us as well as plenty others. At the moment, I have a 13 yr old female Bernese Mountain/Shepherd mix who we adopted and a 4 yr old male Chugle tripod rescue, so your pet will have nice playmates while they stay at our home. I also have a super cute rescue bunny! I have a 17 year old daughter who loves animals and is very respectful to them. I am very passionate about animals and I am an animal advocate, I do whatever I can to help and fight for animals. I sign petitions, write letters to decision makers, build awareness, etc. My future goal is to work in animal rescue or rehab one day, and to live on a small farm when I retire. We have a 1 story, 4 BD house w/a large fenced backyard and we are located a short walk away to a very nice neighborhood park. Feel free to contact me anytime to discuss your needs for your precious one :-) About this sitter: Born and raised in SJ Bay area.

About: Iv grown up with so many animals and pets around me! Cats, dogs, birds, turtles, fishes, rabbits, deers and even peacocks! Cats were my favourite. I had two persian cats, and constantly cared for my aunts 5 kittens and my friends siamese cats! Iv also had dalmation dogs and german shepherds ! I work 2 days from home and 3 days in the office and my schedule is pretty flexible! I can plan my days according to the pets needs. Whatever and however my clients want things done is how I do them. I prefer caring for the pets in their own home since then they are more comfortable and not exposed to too much change.
“Adrianna was amazing like always! She walked and fed our dogs Koda and Cleo and sent us great pictures and updates! Our dogs get excited to her and we will definitely be requesting her to walk our dogs again! :)”

“Maria’s love for dogs is undeniable! I am grateful for her dedication to my dog and overall professionalism - always punctual, communicative, and prioritising my dog’s wellbeing. My dog warmed up to her very quickly the first time they met and I am finally confident in leaving him alone with a walker. We look forward to having Maria as a regular walker for him.”

About: I am a lifelong lover and owner of pets with over 25 years of experience. Having had companions, including several dogs, cats, birds, hamsters, and even a rabbit, I have a knack and love for caring for and playing with animals. I am a current fur dad as well to an Australian Shepherd and a rambunctious little Seal Point Bengal. By the way, if your dog isn’t prey driven, I don’t mind rollerblading them and helping them to get some exercise if that is an option! All of what I make here by the way is going towards my MBA degree at USC and continuous veterinary bills for my dog with prescriptions and dietary restrictions. Pet care occupies my time outside of my day job and it gives me an excuse to get outside, provides possibilities of having some company and socialization for my dog (she does especially well with puppies), and other opportunities to get out and be the excitement in or exercise opportunity for a fur baby or fur babies outside of my own. I usually give the animal space and time to feel me out, as well as the environment if they are in my home. I know that not all animals warm up right away and that it may take several visits for the animal to become comfortable with me - I am patient and perfectly fine with this.

About: I enjoy interacting with dogs and am very passionate about them! My sister has a husky and my brother has a golden doodle. It is so much fun playing with them and giving them the attention they need. I enjoy watching them with the way they communicate with us.

Justin was fantastic! He walked Milo and was an absolute pleasure to work with. He is extremely easy to communicate with, and went above and beyond by being so flexible and accommodating. Highly recommend Justin to anyone looking for a reliable and wonderful dog walker!"
Chiara did such an amazing job checking in on and walking our dog Wilbur! She thoroughly communicated how well the walks went and even did a whole photo shoot every time. Chiara went above and beyond to make sure his space was clean and comfortable, even taking time to play and hang out with him after walks. We would love to have Chiara walk Wilbur for any other future trips and would definitely recommend her for anyone looking for a responsible caregiver for their dogs!

Amy was very friendly with Casper and took him for long walks, connected with him beautifully and understood him. Casper enjoyed his walks and exploring with her and came back happy and tired. She was very kind to adjust her schedules to take care of Casper’s walks. Happy to book her again in future

Sarah was great with my senior dog Jimmy! She took such good care of him and made sure he got his walks and meals right on time. She’s super friendly, reliable, and you can tell she really cares about the dogs she watches. Jimmy warmed up to her right away. I’ll definitely be booking her again!
