“Shirley is wonderful. She took great care of my dog Java on short notice this morning. Java has been in training for leash reactivity and Shirley picked up exactly how to work with her very quickly. She is kind and really appreciate animals from what I can tell. Highly recommended”

About: **Available after 3pm on M,Tu,W,Th, Anytime on F,Sat,Sun** I’ve cared for dogs my whole life and have always loved being around animals. Growing up, I regularly helped care for my family’s dogs whenever they needed support, which gave me plenty of hands-on experience with feeding, walking, playing, and making sure pets feel safe and loved. I’m also a cat parent to my two kitties, Michi and Kiki, whom I’ve raised since they were just 8 weeks old. They’ll soon be two years old! Caring for them has given me daily experience with cat care, routines, playtime, and creating a calm, comfortable environment for pets. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and treat every pet with the same love and attention I give my own. I am currently a master’s student at UC Berkeley. Most days of the week, I end classes at 1pm, so I will be available after that, Sundays and Saturdays the whole day! I have a large apartment for your pup to play in! I also have an outside space for your pup to play in with supervision. Your pet will be my priority during our time together, and rest assured that they will be treated with the utmost respect, love, and kindness!

“Matthew was great with Winni! He took her for walks during the day while my husband and I were at work. He’s very professional, communicative, and dependable. We would definitely book him again!”

About: I’ve always enjoyed having furry companions. I look forward to providing care and love for your pet while you’re at work or out of town. I love caring for dogs as well as cats. I have a very flexible schedule and am able to attend to your pets at any time. Day or night, I am available and happy to help. Caring for a pet requires love, responsibility, and attention to their needs. I will ensure that your pet is taken care of as you would care for your pet while you’re away.

About: I grew up with family cats and dogs and adopted my own puppy at 17 and quickly realized how much work a pet of your own is! I’ve been lucky to live with cats and dogs of roommates of all dispositions (both the roommates and their pets) and now have a charmer of a big orange cat with my fiancé. I’m comfortable with puppies over 3 months old and mostly potty trained, I don’t mind mouthy or jumpy pups and am happy to discourage behaviors according to their training. I’ve had experience with palliative care for two beloved senior dogs that required a little extra help and care and am happy to show your old buddy patience and TLC. Happy to do easy walks around the block or take longer adventures in Oakland’s redwoods! For cats and dogs I am comfortable administering most medications. I’m currently on a long break from full time work and have open week day availability for walks and visits, and can be available weekends with extended notice Ask someone who always wants pictures of my cat, I am happy to send you as many photos of your pet as you would like! I have a keen attention to detail and an above average ability to follow instructions, and I’m happy to do things your way. I have a backseat dog hammock for my car that make sure dogs of all sizes are able to get comfortable.

About: I provide calm, attentive care with a focus on routine and safety. I understand that every dog is different, and I aim to keep their environment steady and comfortable while you’re away. I enjoy taking dogs on regular walks and occasional hikes, giving them time to explore while keeping things structured and safe. I adjust to each dog’s energy level, whether they prefer an active outing or a more relaxed pace. I’m organized, communicative, and reliable, and I take pride in making pet parents feel comfortable and informed. You can expect clear updates, thoughtful communication, and plenty of photos so you can feel at ease while your dog is in my care.

“Thank you!!”

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs my whole life within my family but I’ve also taken my own path on raising puppies from the liter of my own dogs in my parents home having babies. As I’ve gotten older, I’ve taken in two dogs from the streets and have been raising them since one month old. I work for myself so any time I’d need to accommodate for your pups needs I can do that ! I just want to be of convenience for the dog parents because I know how hard it can be managing your life with your fur baby. I have crates if preferred to be used but I also have my own babies that I can bring over to spend time with your fur baby so they don’t feel alone or left out. My babies love other dogs, they are so playful and fun !

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong pet lover who has spent most of my life caring for animals and understand that pets are truly family. My most meaningful experience came from caring for my senior Chihuahua, whom I rescued from the streets and cared for during the last 5 years of his life. When I found him, he was estimated to be around 10 years old and had multiple health challenges, including a severely collapsed trachea. Caring for him taught me patience, attentiveness, consistency, and how important it is to provide pets with loving, reliable care—especially when they need extra support. In college, I also regularly walked neighbors’ dogs and have always been someone friends and family trust with their pets. Whether your dog needs a long walk, companionship while you’re away, or extra patience and care, I strive to treat every pet like my own. I’m available for dog walking and dog sitting and would love to meet your furry family members! I’m currently working part time so I have time to dog sit or walk during the mornings ,afternoons, and evenings Monday-Thursday and on weekends ! I’m attentive and 100% committed to caring for your pet while at your home. No distractions or chaos that can stress your fur baby :)

“We feel like we hit the jackpot finding John to be our regular walker. He treats our dog just like we do (and talks to our dog just like we do too, which if you’re a pet owner, you know is the sign of a good caretaker). Our dog absolutely loves him and even though we unfortunately don’t need a daily walker right now, we are still asking John to keep walking our dog every week because we don’t want to lose him!”

About: I would describe myself as an animal lover and have two cats of my own. I'm hoping one day to get a dog, perhaps some birds and chickens too. Is that too much? Pets are the best of friends especially when life seems a bit chaotic. I understand that most people don’t have the time to care for their pets as much as they would like to, whether it’s a busy work schedule or a desperate need for a vacation from it all. I’ll be there to step in for you so your pet has someone to give them attention, treats, walks, and those good scritchy scratchies. I'm taking some time to focus on job searching and personal projects so my schedule is rather flexible to take on some pet care a few times a week. Unfortunately, due to owning two cats of my own, I can not take on other animals in my apartment. I have a reliable mode of transportation, so I can come to the owner's house and easily take them on adventures outside (park, beach, etc) in my car.

About: I’ve had my husky mix kuro for 10 years and just recently got my baby cat loki! I absolutely love my babies, my main objective is for you to feel safe, comfortable and worry free while you’re away from your baby! Taking care of a husky mix and cat is a bit of a handful and definitely requires a lot of care and attention daily, luckily my roommate and best friend is there with me to watch and care for my babies when im busy! I’d treat my clients home with respect as if it were my own! I would care for their babies like I would mine! I want my clients to feel safe and comfortable when their babies are in my care!

“Esteban is so fabulous. Super kind and friendly - our dog is all wagging tail when Esteban shows up. Would highly recommend him and plan to use him again and again!”

“Manuel was not only a bright and kind soul, but to know that he took my dog Terk’s recovery from a dog attack very seriously and making a point to tell me how much he loved my dog when he brought him back home really warmed my heart. Will definitely hire Manuel again to take care of my precious baby ☺️”

About: Hi! My name is Ciara and I’m happy to have you look at my profile! I have five years of experience with my three dogs. I help groom, make sure my dogs are energized and have fun with them on walks. I have experiences volunteering at a poodle shelter called NorCal Poodles for three years where i medicated, walked and comforted the fostered poodles who have been left behind or given up by the owners. I’ve medicated, helped clean and feed the dogs a well. I’m currently a part-time student (will be ending my semester in May) and a soon part-timer worker. I have flexible time to schedule in walks and make your dog is given attention as well. I want to make sure your dog is comfortable and good with being on leash for walks. I am comfortable with walking dogs of up to 40 lbs and I work well with calm or energetic dogs! I have five years of experience with taking care of my three dogs and making sure they are given attention and help to their needs.

“My pup instantly loved Walter! He has calm energy, which my dog responds very well too. He went above and beyond by coordinating with me the day before to get keys and even checked in on my cat. My dog is trained a certain way and can be reactive and Walter took care to follow my instructions for everything to keep my dog safe. We’re so happy to have found him!”

Rebecca R.

“Excellent service ! My pup came back super excited and tired out which is what I was expecting back, he did not potty for awhile which means he did all his business Through her walks, super excited that he found a new caring companion ! Can't wait to book with her again - I'm pretty sure he's more excited to see her than me at this point !!”

About: Hiiiii!!☺️ Im Brooklyn🌻 I am a retired hair stylist turned creative/ stay at home mom of two. Before covid I worked as a hair stylist for 10 years, and since then I have been finding other ways to create an income for myself doing different things that I enjoy to do! My kids and I moved to Vegas in 2023 from Virginia Beach, Virginia and now we are exploring more of the West Coast to find our more long term home, preferably with water nearby because we miss the beach! I am a huge animal lover, as are both of my kids, and I would love to care for your babies as if they were my own while you are gone! We treat animals with respect, love, and kindness always. I currently help care for our 5 year old Holland Lop bunny named Elliott and our 3 cats, Zarii, Billie and Pluto and have also had many dogs in my life, including our Great Dane and last dog Louie. I have a HUGE soft spot for the big dogs thanks to him. Their hearts are way bigger than ours ♥️ Please know that while you are away, your home and/or animals will be cared for with the upmost love and attention and I will communicate with you as often as you prefer about the status of your babes and of course send cute pics throughout our time together! [Thats my favorite part :)] If I seem like a good match for your family, that’s wonderful and I look forward to connecting with you! At this time my schedule is very flexible and my daily and weekly routines can be adjusted at anytime to fit the needs of a pet I am sitting. I will care for your pet like they are my own. If you have any special requests, please make sure to let me know and I will do my best to look after them just as you would while I am there to take care of them. If they’re used to cuddles on the couch, then bring on the cuddles! I want them to feel as comfortable as they possibly can with me there to take care of them and I will always make sure they do! I love to snap photos to update parents on how we are doing as well.
