About: I’m at Fort Funston or Pine Lake Park or one of the many petlands nearby. I’ve been a dog friend with my own dog family for over 20 years. We talk to each other frequently I’m retired and flexible, able to provide loving care with relatively little notice. I generally go on two longer walks each day where the dogs exercise me I have a fenced back yard in the Parkside/Sunset and own our home with my spouse and Zeke, our beagle mix. It is safe and secure

About: I take caring for your fur babies seriously—whether it’s a daily walk or an overnight stay. I’ve been trusted by close friends and even my boss to provide reliable, loving overnight care for their pets, knowing I’ll treat them like family. I also have experience fostering rescue dogs with special needs. One was visually impaired, and another was recovering from a fractured hip after a hit-and-run. I nursed both back to health with patience and compassion, and today they’re thriving in their forever homes. Whether I’m stopping by for a walk or staying overnight, I bring a calm, attentive presence and a genuine love for animals. Currently, working from home! So I'd be happy to have a furry co-worker with me during the day. Weekends I can be available for overnights. At my home, dogs can enjoy a fenced backyard or my neighborhood has lots of grassy areas for stress-free potty breaks and peaceful strolls. I also have a crate available for small to medium-sized dogs who feel more secure with their own cozy space. When I walk dogs, I go at their pace—stopping for sniffs, water, or just a break when needed. I believe walks should be enjoyable and tailored to each dog’s personality and energy level. In your home, I maintain your pet’s routine as closely as possible so they feel secure in a familiar space. I’m tidy, respectful, and always alert to your pet’s needs, whether it’s playtime, medication, or simply companionship.
“Duygu did an excellent job caring for my cat. She’s very sweet and nice, my cat loved her. She’s very thoughtful and she did everything I asked for and more. She will be the first person I ask to watch my cat again.”

“Joseph did a great job with my cats and even got one of them to warm up to him a bit about halfway through (both of my cats are very skittish). He kept my place neat and tidy while I was away, too. I will continue to utilize his services as much as he is available!”

About: For more than ten years, I’ve had the absolute joy of welcoming pets of all shapes and sizes into my heart. To me, pet sitting has never been just a job—it's a passion for building bonds with animals and giving them the same warmth and affection I give my own. Over the last decade, I've learned how to soothe the anxious pup, engage the curious cat, and provide the gentle patience that senior pets deserve. I truly believe that every animal has a unique personality, and I love taking the time to learn exactly what makes your pet feel safe and happy. When you leave your furry friends with me, you aren't just getting a sitter; you're getting someone who will genuinely love them, spoil them with attention, and make sure they feel completely cherished until you're back in their arms. My schedule is a mix of part time student and part time worker, I have classes midday, Monday through Thursday and in the evening on Tuesdays. I work around my class schedule, which gives me time to be with your pet in the morning, afternoon and/or evening, depending on yours and their needs. My mission is to keep your pet safe, happy, and having a blast while you're away. Since every animal is different, I tailor my care to fit your pet's unique personality and needs. I handle all the essentials—strictly following your feeding and medication schedules and taking care of all the "messy" chores—so you can come home to a clean house and a relaxed pet. For the dogs, I provide everything from high-energy fetch and brisk walks to calm, focused one-on-one attention. For the cats, I’m there for the "zoomies" with feather wands and lasers, or quiet cuddles and grooming for the lap-cats and shy souls. To keep your mind at ease, I'll send you "paws-itive" updates with photos and videos throughout the day so you can see exactly how much fun your best friend is having!
“Alejandrina took great care of my car. I appreciated the detailed pictures in her reports and how she was able to handle unforeseen situations without need for much input while I was away. She responds promptly to messages and communicated in a straightforward way. I highly recommend Nina as a pet sitter.”


About: Part time dog uncle, full time dog lover-- I've been around dogs my entire life. My family had five dogs over the years, and that love for them never went away. While I don't currently have one of my own, I've stayed just as connected through 10 years of regularly sitting and walking dogs for friends and family. Among my coworkers at the hospital, I'm known as the go-to dog sitter! I work full-time from 8–4:30, but I head straight to my pets-in-care as soon as my shift ends. Weekends are always fully available for pet care. While I'm unable to have pets at my own place, I'm someone who respects and follows any guidelines the owner provides. Making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and at home is always my top priority.

“Nick was great!! Was very patient and gentle with our sweet skittish dog and managed to get her to warm up to him. Was very professional, friendly, and the exact right amount of communicative. Followed instructions great and went above and beyond. Will definitely book with him again.”

About: Hi! I’m an experienced foster dog parent and Rover dog sitter. I have fostered four dogs, each for up to two months at a time. I currently have no foster pup and don’t have a resident dog, so your dog will be the only dog in my home. I have experience fostering both younger and senior dogs (including hospice care, partially deaf and blind dogs). I work from home so your dog will seldom be alone, and can take them on walks every 4 hours (4 walks a day) with lots of play time. I am also in a very dog-friendly area, minutes from GGP and Mountain Lake Park. I never take dogs to dog parks and do everything to make your dog feel at home! NOTE: Due to my building’s weight limits I can only board dogs 15lbs or under. I work from home which gives me the flexibility to give your dog lots of attention and ample availability to walk or visit your dog throughout the day! With my attentiveness and experience, I make sure your dog has a fun, safe time with me. I avoid other dogs and children. I always keep dogs on leash during walks, and I don’t go to dog parks/off leash areas.
About: I provide reliable, attentive care that is tailored to each pet's unique personality and routine. Whether your dog enjoys long walks and playtime or your cat prefers a calm, familiar environment, my goal is to make every visit a positive, stress-free experience. I take the time to follow your pet's normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, fresh water, potty breaks, litter box maintenance, exercise, playtime, and plenty of affection. I understand that every pet is different—some dogs love to stay active, while some cats enjoy quiet companionship and gentle attention. I always respect each pet's comfort level and allow them to interact at their own pace, helping them feel safe and secure while you're away. I also have experience caring for senior dogs and cats who benefit from a slower pace, extra patience, and a little more attention throughout the day. My priority is making sure every pet feels comfortable, cared for, and happy in their own home. I pride myself on being punctual, dependable, and easy to communicate with. If something comes up or you need help with a last-minute booking, I'm always happy to assist whenever my schedule allows. Throughout each visit, I'll keep you updated with messages and photos so you always know how your pet is doing, giving you complete peace of mind while you're away. I understand that inviting someone into your home requires trust. That's why I always treat your home with care and respect, leaving it clean and just as I found it. If needed, I'm happy to help with light household tasks such as washing dishes, vacuuming, and taking out the trash. My mother has worked in professional cleaning for over 30 years, so lending a hand and paying attention to the little details has always come naturally to me. Above all, safety is my top priority. I treat every dog and cat with patience, kindness, and respect, caring for them as if they were my own. My goal is to build lasting trust with both pets and their owners by providing dependable, compassionate care that you can count on every time. Pet care is the focus of my day! Because I specialize in low-stress indoor care, my routine revolves entirely around keeping your pets safe, happy, and strictly on their preferred schedules. I love providing interactive indoor playtime with plenty of toys, followed by calm companionship. As a dedicated pet lover, I bring hands-on experience caring for my own 3-year-old rabbit, Mandolin, and regularly pet-sitting my friend’s beautiful Maine Coons. I plan every day carefully around your pet's unique feeding or attention needs to ensure they feel entirely pampered while you are away. I provide dedicated care directly in your pet's comfortable home environment! Based out of a safe, quiet neighborhood near Golden Gate Park and Ocean Beach, I am perfectly positioned to travel quickly to your location. I am highly detail-oriented and strictly follow every instruction provided by my clients to ensure your cats, dogs or rabbits maintain their exact daily routines without any added stress.
About: I’ve had cats and dogs my whole life, and I currently have two cats of my own who I absolutely adore. I’ve also helped pet sit my parents’ cats and dogs over the years when they’ve been away. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, litter boxes, playtime, and just hanging out with pets and keeping them company. I know how hard it can be to leave your pets with someone else, so I’d treat them the same way I’d want someone to treat mine and always send plenty of pictures and updates! I have a very flexible weekday schedule, so I’m available Monday through Friday and can usually work around your pet’s normal routine and preferred visit times. I’ll always follow whatever routine and instructions you leave for me and make sure your pet feels comfortable in their own space. I’m careful about doors, feeding, walks, litter boxes, and anything else they need, and I’m happy to send plenty of pictures and updates while you’re away.
About: I have grown up around dogs and now have one of my own. I know that no two dogs are the same and having a reactive dog myself, I am very well-aware of dog behavior and body language. I have been called "my dog's favorite person" by several friends. I am excited to get to know your dog and meet their needs whether it's sniffing, playing, or a long brisk walk! I live and work in San Francisco and have some flexibility with my work schedule. I am happy to work with you to make my schedule work for you and your pup. I have a fenced in yard near Golden Gate Park (our second backyard) and a playful dog of my own. I am sure to never be away from the house for too long and can set up your dog in a crate, let them roam free, or give them access to certain spaces in the house using gates.
“Noel was absolutely amazing at visiting my cat Mochi every day while I was on vacation. By the second day, Mochi was already comfortable with her and ready to get lots of pets and cuddles! She followed all instructions, made sure he had his breakfast and clean litter, and left the house in perfect order. I'm super happy to have found such a great caretaker in the neighborhood and will definitely ask Noel to look in again when I'm away.”

About: I have extensive experience with dogs of all sizes and dispositions. From tiny toy breeds to giant breed dogs, I understand and cater to the unique needs of every canine companion. I’m confident in handling reactive dogs, ensuring they feel safe and comfortable, and I excel in caring for energetic puppies as well as senior dogs needing extra patience and compassion. I have hands-on experience administering medications, including giving injections when needed, ensuring the process is as stress-free as possible for the dog. Additionally, I provide baths and some grooming services, keeping your furry friend looking and feeling their best. Every dog in my care receives personalized attention and thoughtful care tailored to their individual needs. I'm usually available most days. I walk my dogs several times a day. Your pup can join us on our walks or I can do individual walks. I do offer limited in home boarding for well behaved pups. I would need to meet them and spend a little time with them first before accepting boarding requests. Please contact me for more information or to discuss your needs.
About: I’ve taken care of my pets since I was 4. I take care of pets for friends, family, and neighbors. My experience is with cats, dogs, iguanas, hamsters, gerbils, parrots, cockatoos, and fish of all sizes. I’ve also cared for blind/deaf, hard of sight/hearing, incontinent, and amputees. I can care for a puppy through all ages including the most senior. I work full time but am free all evening and weekends. I can be ready at a moment’s notice to do something as simple as a quick check in and feeding to a long walk. I have a large 2 bedroom apartment with plenty of space to run around in. If at a client’s home, I strictly adhere to the rules and requirements put forth.

About: I am a huge animal lover, all animals included! I can provide any services that you would need for your pet. I have experience caring for both dogs and cats, including ones with illnesses that require special care. I am an active person, so keeping your dog or cat active and engaged is not a problem. For older pets or pets with disabilities I have no problem attending to their particular needs as well. I am a part-time student have a lot of flexibility within my schedule. I have no problem studying from your home to entertain, cuddle, and/or walk your pet! Also happy to provide drop-ins for walks during the day. Your house, your rules! I have worked for senior animals that require a calm and quiet environment as well as more active pets that need someone to get their energy out and play with. If I’m in your home, I always make sure to leave it better than I found it.
“Super communicative and accommodating sitter. Would definitely book again. Our dog is a bit anxious but seems like even by the end of Ivonne’s 30 min drop in, Martini seemed like she warmed up and snuggled.”

“Ronnie is obviously a great and gentle cat sitter. We came back and found our cat less disturbed than usual when we leave her for few days. Our cat is aging and we can see that she needs more and more of a human presence. We also found our place clean, the mail on the table and all is good. So, our new cat sitter for Mimi is Ronnie! Thank you Ronnie!”

“Anastasiia was fantastic! Extremely responsible and reliable. Our cat loved her right away - crawled up on her and did not want to let go! She is super nice and put us at ease leaving our fur baby with her. She will be the one I use from now on!”

Duygu was a JOY to meet and to have as a sitter. We have never left our cats this long so I was very nervous. But when we met Duygu, she immediately put me at ease because she was so obviously competent, seemed at ease with all the instructions, and was truly kind to us AND the cats. I could go on, but I'll leave it at that for now (because I hope to have her back next time we go away and then I can say more 😊). 110% recommend!
We were gone for a few days for a personal trip and had Lillian come to help us cat sit. She came over to do a meet and greet before the actual sit to learn about the care she would need to provide and what she would need to do. She was attentive and took notes and overall the service was great. Highlights of the service were definitely her energy was very calming and approachable for the cats (one of our babies is quite skittish) and she was a very prompt and responsive communicator. We plan to book again in the future and would recommend others to consider Lillian for cat sitting and general pet sitting as well.

Tatyana was amazing with Luna! Her attention to every little detail made us feel so comfortable while we were away, and we could truly relax and enjoy our trip knowing Luna was in such good hands. We came home to a happy, well-cared-for pup. We’d happily book Tatyana again

Aileen was confident since the first moment and attracted Kali with a smart and calm playful way. I am secure to have Aileen on my vacation and she is ready to be helpful and reliefing. Aileen took extra time to make sure everything is understood and meet us on personal level. Thank you for your help

Jennifer was wonderful with our 5-month-old puppy, Juno, who is currently recovering from cherry eye surgery. Juno can be a little shy around new people, but she warmed up to Jennifer quickly. Jennifer was professional, reliable, and great with communication throughout. We’d love to work with her again and have her work with our pup!!

Anurag was wonderful with my pittie mix Mo, who can be dog reactive and sensitive but is also a love, affectionate and a bit anxious, while I was gone for 24 hours! Long walks, potty breaks and meals - all went smoothly. Lots of pictures and he gave Mo his time and care. Will book again!

Kaylyn was so awesome. I was away for 14 days- it was my first time being away from my kitty for so long and I felt so much better knowing she’d be the one to check in on Peach. She was very communicative and truly loves animals. I will definitely be booking with her in the future!
