“Craig was fantastic! He met our pup Hutch ahead of our scheduled walks and tailored to them to Hutch’s activity level with some great hikes on Montara mountain. Craig is super easy going and responsive. We hope Hutch gets the opportunity to walk with Craig again soon!”

About: I love helping families with dogs get their dog the exercise and attention they need to stay happy and healthy. I always treat dogs like they're my own, I love animals of all kinds and can handle all ages and a wide range of personality types. I'm patient with dogs who pull the leash or go slow and do a lot of sniffing. I work part time so I have a fairly flexible schedule from 10am-3pm on Mo-Fr. I am happy to walk outside no matter the weather. I have a new EV to pick your dog up in and take them to a trail head. I always make sure their collar, leash, and/or harness is secured. I am good at following instructions and am accepting of advice you have about taking care of your dog.
“Zoeyanne had great rapport with both of my dogs (who have very different personalities and lots of quirks). She was also very patient and helpful with some problems I had booking the appointment.”

About: Years of loving dog care experience for my own two and others. Lots of time spent taking care of senior dogs with low mobility but high spirits. I love all kinds of dogs and especially do with with large breeds and older pups- tailoring activity levels and energy to their needs and your requests. Thanks for trusting me with your pup! Currently volunteering part time and doing some personal work, looking to intersperse with drop in visits and walks during weekdays. I would love to walk dogs on the coast areas that I know well and am happy to come to your home/neighborhood. I am a very aware and conscientious pet sitter. For me this means safety 1st- preventing escapes, hazards, or unwanted wandering. I will always look for things that could become a problem around curious pups and help alleviate such hazards. I don’t allow dogs to interact with off leash dogs unless it’s an explicit request of the owner, otherwise I always walk on leash and keep distance from other dogs we encounter.
“Alyssa was wonderful and treated my 2 dogs so well! She showed up on time for all the walks and communicated information about each walk on the Rover website. She even included some cute pics! I will definitely book with Alyssa again!”

About: I have had dogs my whole life and have taken care of many friend's and neighbor's dogs. I just finished playing Division 1 soccer and have tons of energy! Would love to run/walk/train some dogs with lots of energy. I also enjoy showing the older, more chill doggos some love. I am currently looking for jobs so I have a pretty open schedule. I recently graduated and from UC Davis and would love some time with furry friends. I take my dogs on 2 walks per day and let them out a few times in between to potty. I can walk/feed/train/and show some extra love to your pup if you need some extra help!
About: I've had dogs my whole life ranging from a 105 pound Lab to a 9 pound Chihuahua. Family friends and acquaintances have relied on me time and time again to house sit and watch their dogs/cats. As a college student, I like to keep a structured schedule, making it easy to incorporate your pet's care into my daily routine. I have set blocks of time in the mornings, between classes, and in the evenings that I dedicate to feeding, walks, and check-ins. On weekends and lighter class days, I’m able to spend extra time on longer walks, playtime, or sitting stays. I stay organized and plan ahead, so pets always get consistent attention, exercise, and care. I prefer caring for pets in their own home because it keeps them comfortable, relaxed, and in a familiar routine. When I’m in a client’s home, I follow all instructions closely—feeding according to their schedule, refreshing water, providing potty breaks, walks, playtime, and any special care they need.
About: Hi, my name is Jessica! I have experience with many breeds of dogs through my work in rescue and previous experience with walking and boarding dogs. I’ve worked with stronger breeds like shepherds, pitbulls/bully breeds, doberman, as well as herding breeds. I have a dog of my own that’s social with other dogs and assisted with teaching rambunctious puppies doggy manners as well as confidence building in shy dogs. My previous experience includes working with dogs with separation anxiety, leash reactivity, and dog selectivity/dog aggression. I live in a home with no breed restrictions. I can administer medication if the dog in my care requires it. I will continue training of the pets in my care according to what is practiced in the dogs home regularly.
“Ryan was amazing! I am not used to letting my pup on walks with someone we both met first time, but Ryan put me at ease immediately! He was great with my dog. Definitely recommend, and will rebook!”

“This was a meet and greet at my house with Erica. She is super friendly knowledgeable and loves dogs! She and her husband Steve are very flexible. I trusted them right away. Elroy will be going to their house for doggie daycare to get them acclimated to their place. Looking forward to it.”


About: I have a big house with many comfortable spots to choose from. There is plenty of yard for your curiosity and a warm deck to soak up some sunshine. The house is pet friendly and clean. You have my undivided attention and I can take you with me most of the time. I love your company and miss you when you go home. Discount for multi-dog families and extended stays. I work part time so I have plenty of time to spend with your pet. There is someone home almost all of the time, the exception being a couple of hours in the early afternoon. I have a huge picture window facing a mountainside that sports many animals that entertain us. I have a high fence and secure gate. Not many visitors or much foot traffic. Quiet and safe.
“We are so grateful Matisse was available to walk Hutch over the holidays! Thanks for being responsive and sharing pics and tracks for the walks. Looks like Hutch had a great time!”

“Zheng is a lifesaver! My dog has tons of energy, and Zheng did a fantastic job making sure he got a proper workout. I really appreciated the detailed Rover cards and the cute photos sent during the walk. It’s such a relief knowing my dog is in such capable hands while I’m traveling”

“Absolutely the sweetest person ever. I moved into the area last minute and needed a dog walker the very next day. Venora was willing to help me in a desperate time. And Stacy my sweet girl loves her! Which is also a plus! THANK YOU💕”

Josephine has been cat sitting for my sister for a while now. I was in a bit of a jam as my regular dog walker wasn’t available. I reached out to Jo and she was very quick to respond. She came in for a meet and greet a week before. She did a one hour walk with both my dogs and was very communicative and gave great updates. Thank you, Jo! I will definitely be booking and using her services again.
