Maia was great! Very friendly and you can tell she loves animals. She went out of her way to make sure my often anxious dog felt comfortable around her. Recommend.

I hired Natalie to walk my dog while I had all day commitment. She was amazing with my dog who can be shy with strangers. She followed directions perfectly and even came back after discovering an issue with the punch code on the front door. I’d highly recommend her. She’s clearly a committed person and animal lover.

I trust Hassan with my pups over anyone and know whenever they’re in his care he treats them like his own, making sure they’re well cared for, comfortable and safe. Every time my babies see him they get sooo excited and have the best time when Hassan is caring for them. 10/10 100% recommend.

About: My family has owned dogs since I was a baby, cats since I was 5, and I have helped care for them since I was 10: feeding/playing with them, dog walking, cleaning litter boxes. I’ve also helped take care of other family/friend pets. I worked, interned, and volunteered at a local animal shelter where I was trained to walk/care for/train dogs, play with/feed cats, and cleaned kennels/litter boxes. Over the summer of 2024, I worked at the Oakland Zoo where I gained experience on caring for wild animals. I am taking classes at the local community college. I am available weekends, Monday’s after 12:30pm, Tuesday/Thursday before 1pm and after 3:30pm, Wednesday’s between 12:30pm and 4pm, and Friday’s before 4pm. When I am free, I’m available to walk/feed dogs and take care of cats in their homes. I will send pictures showing the progress of the walk/visit. I will also write texts to update when I bring the dog outside, when I’m returning from a walk, and when I’m leaving and locking up the house. I own a car and am able to drive to your home to take care of your pets. I can also bring dogs for walks or drive them to a park to play outside if wanted. If I do drive them anywhere, I will make sure to text when I am leaving (house/park) and arriving to the park or back to the house to show the dog made the trip safely.

I am pleased to write this letter of recommendation for Madison, who provided exceptional care for my French Bulldog Ren. Madison was my go-to dog walker and sitter for an extended period, and I couldn’t have been more impressed with her reliability, attentiveness, and genuine love for animals. Ren requires extra care and attention due to his unique needs, and Madison always went above and beyond to ensure their comfort and well-being. She was incredibly patient, responsible, and detail-oriented, always following special feeding instructions, administering medications when necessary, and making sure my pup received plenty of exercise and affection. Her communication was outstanding—she provided regular updates, photos, and check-ins, which gave me peace of mind whenever I was away. Madison’s professionalism and compassionate nature make her an ideal candidate for any pet care role. I highly recommend her to anyone seeking a trustworthy and dedicated caregiver for their pet. Please feel free to contact me if you need further details about my experience with Madison.

Hi my name is Loren and I've owned my Petcare Company for 24 years now locally in Marin. On and off when I need extra assistance, I call upon Shana! I know that I can cont on her, as she always provides loving care and she is very responsible taking care of my pets and house sits. She's attentive to the pets needs and is communicative about the pets in her care. She loves animals and loves to be active with them, interact, and play. She follows directions well and has a calm demeanor. I highly recommend her services!

I have known Vidya for almost 20 years and she's one of the kindest, most compassionate animal lovers I know. Dogs and cats are always welcome in her home, she makes it a point to help any animal in need. My own dog, who is 14 now, has spent a good part of his pampered life under her care. She knows how to connect with dogs and cats, she can anticipate their needs and ensure that they are safe and happy under her care. I would blindly entrust any pet with her, knowing that the animal would be completely safe with her.

About: I’ve taken care of dog since I’ve been a child and I’m a dog mom myself of three fur babies. I have cared for coworkers, family and friends fur babies when they are out town. In addition to that I’m also a nanny! I have plenty of time to play with your pups in the weekends or late evenings. I’m very flexible and can try to work with your schedule. I did nannying all of my undergrad and still continue to do it- I am very easy going and can follow instructions. My fur babies are very friendly and both my front and back yard are gated.

Jessica has been an absolute lifesaver for me and my 9-month-old French bulldog, Michy. As a resident neurosurgeon in San Francisco, my schedule is crazy unpredictable e.g. long shifts, surgeries, and being on-call often leave me scrambling. Jessica has been incredibly flexible and reliable, stepping in to care for Michy when my sister couldn’t. She’s always made sure Michy gets the attention and care he needs, even when my days run way longer than expected. Her responsiveness and genuine love for animals have been such a relief, and Michy absolutely adores her. I can’t recommend Jessica enough, she’s the best!
