About: I've lived with dogs my whole life and my neighbor relies on me to walk and feed their dog when they're late or out of town. I also am currently in college studying the science of human animal connections and take care of the animals at my college. I can only work part-time as I also take care of the animals at my college. Anytime after 2pm and before 11am would work best for pet walking/watching. I take care of the animals at my college so I have plenty of experience, I can come to your home and take care of your pets we can also meet at a dog park somewhere if you are not comfortable with me in your home.

11. Margaux W.


“Margaux was wonderful to work with. I had a business meeting in the east Bay Area and was going to be gone for about 12 hours. Margaux made it very easy to come by and give my boy a nice break and playtime during the long day. I also appreciated the amazing photos she took during her visit! Thank you Margaux for checking in on Teddy for me!”


12. David G.
“I would recommend this young man to anyone who loves their pets. He is a sensible, polite young man who’s love of animals is obvious. He has recently taken care of 6 Corgi’s at once without any problems. He took them all out on their leashes together down to the beach and they loved it!!! Nothing like a too much for him. He will do anything you ask, and look after your furry friends as though they were his own. I’m so happy to have this opportunity to promote this young man. He will go far!”

“Amber watched my 2 kittens for a weekend and I’ll never trust anyone else again. My kitties were happy and fed and my house was not a mess when I returned. Definitely pick her for all your pet sitting needs.!😌”


15. Samantha Z.
“I love how Samantha pays attention to detail. She wanted to make sure that she knew my little guy: from his treats and his routine down to the way he likes to play with his favorite ball. I never worried a minute while I was at work because she had everything under control. It was such a comfort knowing that my little guy could stay in his own routine. I would HIGHLY recommend Samantha and her pet sitting services to ALL my friends with furry people. Don’t even worry about stressing or planning for a trip to the kennel, just let Samantha take care of your little fur baby. AND, she will update you as often as you’d like regarding your pets and their behavior. Book her today!”

About: I have looked after dogs and cats since I was 12 years old. I started by watching, feeding, playing with, and bathing both family and neighborhood pets!

Beginning in August, and continuing through May, I will be available Monday through Friday (in the evenings) and Saturday and Sunday (anytime). I look forward to hearing from you soon!☺️ I can provide care in your own home or mine. I am happy to commute to your home to look after your pets.

17. Cassidy D.
About: Growing up on a farm in Montana, I have owned and cared for multiple types of animals. I love all pets like they are my own. I've always been the person in the friend group that is blessed enough to have everyone ask me to petsit! My experience has also allowed me to accrue a seemingly bottomless supply of tips on training, nutrition, and having overall happy animals. I'll care for your animals exactly how you would! Your instructions and peace of mind are my top priorities. Please reach out if you have any questions! I've just moved here recently from Montana! My schedule is wide open! I am currently able to dedicate 100% of my time to pet care. I have a large house and fenced yard. I have 3 very friendly and well behaved dogs. My house is quiet and comfortable with plenty of places for dogs and cats to lounge or play!


18. Brittany N.
“Brittany has been caring for pets for over 20 yrs. She has rescued animals from dogs, cats, horses, and goats to guinea pigs. She has also been a farmhand taking care of animals throughout the years and she has been personally requested by pet owners to care for their pets. She takes care of them like her own. She is kind, caring, loving, reliable and thorough, making sure they have what they need and any requests the pet owner may have. She currently helps takes care of my elderly dog and cat. She truly is an amazing pet caregiver.”
