“Laura is very gentle, confident and attentive to all we have to tell her (which was a lot!) about our dogs. Lisah is an anxious dog but she takes up to Laura right away!! Thank You Laura!”

“Annalise did an amazing job with Happy! Happy is a very friendly but anxious dog. I’m glad he got along with Annalise :) would definitely book again since I’m a frequent traveller.”

“Jennifer was a stellar dog sitter for my girl. When no one showed at the dog park for my uber social girl, Jennifer took the extra mile literally and walked my girl around Lake Merritt. When it was time to leave, she made sure my girl was properly prepped for bed time. When I came home I found a well fed and tired out Dutchie. With Jennifer looking after my girl, it was less stress to carry. Would Def recommend her to owners of high energy dogs.”

“Crystal was not only a reliable walker but she also was experienced in training methods which she patiently used with our dog. I recommend her for dogs large and small.”

“Terry was great with our big dog Ziggy. Ziggy is strong and has a lot of energy. He always returned from the walks happy and exhausted. Terry went above and beyond to work with and bond with my dog. Will definitely hope to have him walk Ziggy again when we need the help. Thanks!!”

“Valerie is a great communicator - Max really enjoyed her! Looking forward to continuing to work with her.”

Erin M.

“Sara is so awesome! My anxious dog usually takes a few times meeting with someone to feel aquatinted, but my pup felt comfortable the first walk with Sara. He now is so excited to see her and spend time during walks. I feel great knowing she understands his needs and I am very grateful to have found her. 10/10”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for the past 3 years and absolutely love spending time with them. A family member owns a farm, and when their dog had puppies, I helped care for the litter and learned how important patience, love, and attention are. I treat every dog like my own and always make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for. As a college student, I have free gaps between classes that allow me to provide reliable pet care, walks, playtime, and attention throughout the day. I follow each pet’s routine carefully, provide food and water, give plenty of attention, ensure safety, and keep their environment clean and comfortable for the pets and owners.

About: Hi, there! My name is Halle and I recently moved to Berkeley from Beaverton, OR. While I was living in Beaverton, I dog-sat and house-sat over the course of the lat six years for several different families whose animals ranged from puppies, dogs (large, medium and/or small), cats, guinea pigs and more. I have a huge passion for animals and am able to provide extra care for those who have pets with health issues (i.e., giving them medicine, eyedrops, injections, etc). I'm an avid walker and love to spend time outdoors -- I'm happy to walk your dog as much as desired/needed. Thank you for your consideration! I'm currently in the process of securing a full-time job in Berkeley so until then, I have unlimited availability to care for your pet! During every pet-sitting gig I've completed over the last six years, I've always stayed at the homeowner's house. I'm known for being communicative, proactive, clean/tidy/organized and consistently ensuring the animal receives high quality care, affection, attention, safety and exercise. I'm an avid walker and love spending time outside so I'm more than happy to take your pet on a walk for however long you want!

“Michelle was very prompt in answering my request for a walk. She arrived on time and was very great with our dog. Looking forward to working together on a reoccurring basis. I would very much recommend working with Michelle.”

“Dash is excellent with dogs. My pups were so happy after their walk. Dash has this calming personality around dogs. I see mine loving being around him. My dogs don’t go out for a walk with anyone except for me. Seeing them trusting Dash was wonderful comforting sight.”

About: I have had pets and provided care for others pets consistently for the last 10 years. I love dog walking and getting outside on trails with animals. I also have cats and love anything and everything to do with kitties. I have Tuesdays and Thursdays available for dog walking. Shorter pet checkins are something I can do most days of the week. I am flexible and happy to make time if we seem like a good fit. I am very good with animals and work to meet them on their level. I am very familiar with dog walking safety and I am a very detail oriented person who goes above and beyond.

About: I bring over 15 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs, with a particular love and comfort level for well-behaved pups of any size. I previously had multiple Great Danes, so managing large, powerful dogs is second nature to me. I know reside with my 15 lb Aussiedoodle in the East Bay. My care style is calm, attentive, and highly personalized. I focus on creating a relaxed, structured environment where dogs feel secure, understood, and genuinely cared for. I especially enjoy long walks, outdoor time, and thoughtful enrichment that keeps dogs mentally engaged as well as physically exercised. Whether your dog thrives on adventure, routine, or simply peaceful companionship, I tailor care to their individual temperament and needs. While I adore dogs of all sizes, I naturally connect with well-mannered large and giant breeds. Their personalities, presence, and gentle nature have always been my sweet spot. My Approach • Calm, grounded energy • Long, engaging walks • Enrichment & mental stimulation • Respect for routines & preferences • Reliable, boutique-style care I understand how important it is to trust someone with your dog. My goal is always to provide a level of care that feels thoughtful, intuitive, and genuinely reassuring. Looking forward to meeting you and your pup 🐾 I have intentionally limited daytime availability, which allows me to provide highly attentive, unrushed care. Rather than juggling multiple bookings, I typically focus on one household per day so your pet receives my full presence, energy, and attention. I own and operate a small business, and during this season I’m choosing to supplement my days doing something I genuinely love — spending time with animals. Caring for pets is something I find grounding, joyful, and deeply rewarding. For walks, I choose safe, calm, low-stress environments. I’m highly mindful of surroundings and well-versed in reading situations to ensure dogs remain comfortable and relaxed. I have extensive experience handling large and giant breeds on leash, and I’m confident managing powerful dogs with steady, grounded energy. Off-leash activity is never an option unless within your pet’s own familiar environment and based entirely on your preferences. Trust & Care for Your Home I understand that inviting someone into your home requires a high level of trust. I treat every home with the same respect, discretion, and care I would expect for my own. I’m naturally tidy, conscientious, and attentive to details — whether that means maintaining cleanliness, following household preferences, or ensuring your space is left exactly as you’d expect. Referrals are gladly provided upon request. I’ve been trained to remain observant and considerate of other dogs, children, and potential stressors, and I proactively navigate walks in a way that prioritizes safety and ease for your dog. Your pet’s well-being, security, and peace of mind are always my highest priority.

“Chandlor did a great job walking my two dogs - together and separately. They greeted him with enthusiasm and came back well exercised. You can tell he has dogs of his own & knows how to communicate with them. Thanks, Chandlor”

About: I have been around and taking care of animals since I was a kid! Growing up on my grandmas farm with 7 dogs, 5 horses, 9 cats and about 50 llamas taught me how to properly care for animals of all kinds, and how they can also take care of you! I had a pug named Fergus growing up and have lived with a pitbull mix for about 6 years, who I love to care for. I have also always had cats and have raised 3 rabbits! I love animals of all kinds, I can’t wait to meet yours ! I am an art student, and would love to care for your pet in my free time ! I’m available weekends and afternoons mon-friday ! I am not currently available available to host pets in my home but would love to visit your pet in your home to feed, give love and attention and let them out to run around and play games !

About: Hi! We are two animal lovers who have had pets of all kinds throughout our lives. Chrystal has raised dogs, cats, fish, iguanas, guinea pigs, and other small furry creatures. Daniel was raised on many acres with many furry and farm animals as pets. Our family consists of ourselves, 2 kids, and 2 adorable cats. Our sweet, large goof of a dog recently passed and we miss him dearly. We both work from home with a flexible schedule, so have plenty of opportunity to support your family's needs. We both have years of experience dog and cat sitting. We are comfortable and experienced with all breeds and ages and can provide medication as needed. Daniel is also uniquely skilled with larger dogs who need extra support, confidence, or attention when walking or near others. If your pet is not comfortable with kids and/or cats we can easily accommodate with scheduling and separation. Reach out with any questions and we look forward to meeting your furry family! We work from home with a flexible schedule and so can easily schedule time away during the day. One of us is available evenings as well. In the winter months we are away for the weekend, so only available weekdays (Sun eve - Fri midday) We like to know from you what makes your pet the most comfortable in their space. Any guidance is appreciated! We leave a space cleaner than we found it and are natural organizers. If you are traveling, We are particularly thoughtful about how you'd like to leave the house with lights on\off, etc.
