About: Taking care of dogs started for me with my wonderful and energetic Airedale in my teens and twenties, and continues as a dedicated uncle to my sister’s 4 dogs (yes 4!). I am the guy my friends consistently ask to pet sit when they leave town. I also take pride in leaving your house as nice as when arrived. For long stays or short, I’m happy to help. I do love senior doggies, but I’m not able to provide round-the-clock type care for dogs with serious mobility issues or dementia symptoms. I am currently working part time nearby and I am not planning holiday travel, so I’ll have plenty of time for quality visits with your dogs! Your pets and your home environment are important to you. I will exercise the utmost care with both and make sure you feel comfortable entrusting me with either or both.

About: My home is your pet’s home 🫶🏻 Safe and trusted environment 💛 I have been caring for dogs and cats of all sizes and temperaments since I was 10 years old. Neighbors, friends, and family have always relied on me to check in, feed, and play with their pets. As a dedicated dog and cat owner myself, I understand that your pet is family. I am a very active person who loves long walks, so I can ensure your dog gets plenty of exercise. I’m also highly organized and comfortable following specific feeding or medication schedules to keep your pup's routine consistent. I currently work in healthcare administration during the week, which means my weekends are entirely dedicated to pet care! I am available for full-time boarding and house sitting from Friday evening through Sunday night. Because I am a student and work a consistent schedule, I am very reliable and punctual with my check-ins and walk times. Your pup will have my full attention during their stay! I live in a pet-friendly environment in San Mateo where your dog's safety is my top priority. I have a friendly dog of my own who loves making new friends, making my home a great 'social' spot for your pup. I am very comfortable with 'Meet & Greets' to ensure everyone gets along. I maintain a clean, safe space and am happy to accommodate crate training or any specific home boundaries you have in place.

About: I’ve been taking care of animals for 20+ years. I grew up with a cat and 2 dogs, rode horses, volunteered at animal shelters, and we currently have 2 tuxedo kitties. I have been volunteering with local animals shelters for the past 10+ years; mainly dogs, cats, and small animals. I usually opt to support pet care (feeding, kennel cleaning, walks) and recently I have been supporting surgeries (spays, neuter, etc). From all of my experiences, I’ve found that patience, respect, and kindess are the pillars to good interactions with animals. The most important thing to me will always be the well-being of your pet. Happy to help out fellow pet parents through Rover! Cheers, Marissa I’m currently between jobs (biotech in the bay) and am happy to add some structure to my days with pet care. I’m available weekdays for visits, walks, and care. Not able to do boarding or home sits at this time. I will respect your space as if it was my own; no shoes in the house, leave things cleaner than you found it, pet-safety conscientious (ex food risks). When visiting your pets they’ll have my undivided attention and you have my promise to thoroughly review any instructions; big or small.

“Aaron is excellent! He's very responsive to my texts and gets back to me right away. He's also very organized and had to remind me of our walk schedule for this week! James Dean loves walking with him and is very enthusiastic when Aaron arrives to walk him. A happy (and tired out) dog is the best proof that my dog is getting the most out of his walks with Aaron.”

About: I’ve trained my dog myself since he was 3 months old and I love sharing my ideas on how to train my friends’ puppies too. Additionally, my brother and sister-in-law are working away from home so they rely on me taking care of their 8 year old Shih Tzu. I currently work part-time and have long week breaks and I am also a student. So I have a lot of broken free time throughout the day or month. We have a fenced backyard with tall no opening gates. Staircase are fenced and camera is available in multiple angle of the house to watch the dogs.

About: As a dedicated dog owner, I bring a unique blend of experience and passion to caring for your furry family member. I rescued and adopted my own dog from the streets, transforming him from an aggressive and anxious to a well-trained, dog-park-friendly companion. I understand the patience and care every dog needs, no matter their personality. Whether it’s a relaxing walk, an adventurous hike, or playful social time, I’m here to ensure your pup feels loved, safe, and happy—just like my own! I’m currently working part-time and remotely so I will be able to tend to your pup’s needs. This would be great for those with a little more anxiety when left alone. There is also a crate for dogs that prefer a den environment! I live in an apartment where dog feeding will be in the kitchen or separated in rooms if necessary. Dog walking will be done in surrounding neighborhoods for approximately 30-45 minutes per walk, on leash - or local dog parks. I have my own vehicle to commute to client’s home if required.

Rumi may have found her new favorite person in Lizbeth! Rumi is still a puppy and she can sometimes be a bit distracted while on walks. With Lizbeth, however, loose leash walking around the neighborhood wasn't a problem at all, even with skateboarders nearby and leaves blowing in the wind (her absolute favorite thing to lunge at). Lizbeth was communicative, prompt, and from the big smile Rumi had after she came home from her walk, you could just tell that Lizbeth has a special way with dogs. We absolutely loved our experience with Lizbeth and would highly recommend her!
