“Kept us informed! Took great care of our pets and our home! Followed all our pets special care needs. We relaxed and had a wonderful vacation knowing that our pets were safe and sound! Highly recommend!!!”


“Daria was wonderful taking care of my dog. He's fearful and anxious with new people and Daria was extremely patient and accommodating when first coming for a meet and greet and then again when I was leaving for my trip. She really engaged with Tallac to build a bond before my trip even started. She kept the house tidy and clean. I absolutely will be requesting her services again.”


“Evelyn took care of our rescue dog like her own. She made sure to review our guide in advance (our dog has some triggers based on his shelter experience). She was very affectionate and our dog ended up cuddling with her. Would love to book Evelyn again!”


“Michelle was fantastic! We needed someone last minute to housesit our hyper husky. Michelle got back to us promptly and was responsible, trustworthy and professional. I’m so glad I met her, and I definitely plan on using her again in the future.”


“Hannah was fabulous! My usually very shy cat children took a liking to her right away, which is the first for them! She provided constant updates and pictures while I was away, which I appreciated. Would absolutely have her take care of my kitties again :)”


“This was the first time I left my dog with someone who wasn’t family overnight. Austin asked a lot of good questions that made me feel at ease during our meet and greet because it showed he was experienced and cared. He sent regular updates with photos and videos throughout the weekend. It seems like my dog enjoyed his company and I look forward to their next stay together.”


“Ian is exceptional! They took wonderful care of our dog, cat, and home—everything was in great shape when we returned. Ian provided regular updates, allowing us to relax and enjoy our trip, knowing our pets and home were in good hands. I highly recommend booking with Ian!”


“Our experience with Alannah was only positive! She was communicative, flexible, and reliable. She followed our instructions for our dog with epilepsy exactly, and all of our animals got a ton of quality time! We arrived home to a clean house and happy pets. We appreciated the frequent photos and updates, and she was very informed about how to take care of dogs with special needs, which made us feel at ease.”


“Alanna was great. She was communicative and took wonderful care of my cat, Angel. She sent plenty of pictures and my cat really seemed to enjoy spending time with her.”


About: Hello! My name is Laura, and I'm a full-time hybrid worker who would like to meet more cats and dogs in the area. I am from a very small town in Vermont, where I grew up with various types of animals. I have always loved animals of all kinds, but especially cats and dogs. In middle school, I began to pet-sit cats, dogs, rodents, and horses for my neighbors and their friends. In High School, I started house-sitting to give animals better and longer-term care. I am very active and would love to take your dogs on walks all around North Beach and beyond. I work remotely so I have flexibility to fit your schedule. I am an early riser and start work around 7 and finish around 3. If you’re nearby I can do bathroom/walk breaks during the day. Or, I’m willing to work from your apartment to give your pet more time and attention! I do not have a yard so your home might be the better fit. That said, if you have a preference for your dog to spend time at my home that’s perfectly fine!

“Marisol was wonderful with my animals!!! Our dog was well cared for and happy when we returned! Our house was also so clean when we returned! Highly recommend ☺️”


About: I’ve trained my border collie since he was just a puppy and now he’s 5 and as happy as can be! I’m great with dogs of all sizes and ages! I am free weekends all day for a drop in or a walk. I work from home Monday to Friday and can be available in the afternoons after 1pm. Feel free to send me a message to coordinate. I am very used to dog behaviors especially since I’ve trained my border collie with a high prey drive. It’s nice having someone that knows what working dogs need and want in their care.
“We are a repeat client since our dog Kona loves Kiansu. She stayed with him while we were out of town earlier this month and took care of him as well as our house. Kiansu sends many pics of their walks and playtime each day and is such a joy to work with; she’s terrific!!!”


“Kayley was great with our rescue pups. We got updates regularly and the dogs loved her. We are very glad to have found her and will be using her services again.”


“Nicole house sat for our cats and was wonderful! Very easy to communicate with and friendly. I would definitely book her again and recommend her”


“Billie is so good with my dog, who is a senior rescue. She’s so incredibly reliable, conscientious, communicative, just everything you want in a sitter! She’s the best!”


“Xander did a great job caring for our dog Teo. Very extensive walks and super attentive; Teo clearly liked him! And he’s a very good communicator. We will definitely work with Xander again next time.”


“Hannah took great care of our two pups! Regular updates with photos, and she noticed a small issue with one of the dogs (allergies + licking paws). Would book again!”


“Laura was a great help! She was able to work from our house and watch our puppy during the day so we didn’t have to crate her or worry about her getting into trouble. We would book her again ??”


“Awesome! Loved everything she did for us super last minute and adapted. Athena loved her and was so sad to see her go. So grateful she was able to make time for us as she did 12/10 would book again.”
