“Chris has been great with Stella, and she can be a handful. He’s very quick to respond and easy to schedule with! I would definitely recommend him.”
“Leonard was awesome to work with on all levels! He took care of my dog both as an in home sitter for overnight stay and for day sitting. He was extremely easy to work with as he would flex his hours everyday according to my schedule. My dog absolutely loved him! He took her to the beach and hiking and was always with her at home. He even bought her a toy on his last day which he let her select (not surprising that the toy closely resembles a squirrel :). Leonard also has a very pleasant and approachable personality - I would highly recommend him to take care of your dog. I look forward to Leonard and my dog reuniting on another stay!”
“Marisa took great care of Cody while we were away for a long holiday. She was communicative and responsive. Cody can get bored and itch himself and she let us know she'd keep an eye out for it. We felt at ease that Cody was in good hands!”
About: I’ve always loved animals and have a dog of my own, so I understand how important it is to find someone you trust. I treat every pet with the same care and respect I give my own. Whether it’s a walk, drop-in, or overnight stay, I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for. I’m on summer break from school, so I have lots of free time to give your pets the care and attention they deserve. I do work part-time, but my schedule is flexible and changes often—just let me know what times you need, and I’ll do my best to make it work for you and your furry friend! When caring for pets in your home, I focus on keeping your pet safe and comfortable while following your instructions closely. I’m respectful of your space and make sure to keep everything tidy and calm, so both your pet and home feel well cared for.

About: Hi! I’m a mom, and lifelong animal lover based in San Rafael. With over 20 years of experience caring for pets—including sitting for all of our friends dogs and cats—I bring both heart and hands-on knowledge to every dog I care for. I work from home and offer dog walking, pet sitting, and boarding 7 days a week. I love being outdoors and make time daily for walks, hikes, and playtime in nearby parks, trails, and beaches. I have twins in high school who were raised around animals and love spending time helping to walk, play, and socialize with our furry guests. Whether it’s a high-energy puppy, a senior dog needing special care, or a shy pup who needs patience and love, I adjust my schedule to meet each dog’s individual needs. I've cared for puppies and seniors needing medication, and everything in between. I'm located right near beautiful walking trails, and beaches, and dog-friendly parks—perfect for pups who enjoy both exercise and social time. When your pet stays with me, they’re part of the family. Safety, affection, and joy come first in our home—and yours. Let’s chat about how I can help care for your four-legged friend! I work from home and have plenty of flexibility to pay attention to your pet. I have twin teenagers who both love animals. Your pets won't be short on play mates or love here! I am right by a great park and trails for fun walks. I don't have a crate for sleeping, but I have comfortable dog beds. I cook for our pet milo, so if you need home cooking Ican accommodate that. Milo is almost 17 years old! He is part Corgi and Part Belgian Shepard. He loves other pets that visit us.
About: I have experience with puppies, seniors, large and little dogs. I have cared for a broad range of pets with disabilities and temperament challenges as well as medication and training schedules. I am a part time remote worker available to sit in your home. I have plenty of time for walks, training, play time and cuddles. I maintain the established schedule and aim to provide as little disruption to the routine as possible. I like to keep a lively but relaxed environment.
About: I loves dogs. I have been lucky enough to own a few over the years, but circumstances have not let me as much as I would like (either because I traveled a lot, I rented and no dogs were allowed, or I have not been sure I could be there for them for 10-17 years as needed. Being a dog sitter and walker, I can give your dog the love I have and get outside and enjoy our wonderful locations with your dogs. I am recently retired and trying to determine my next move--which means right now, my schedule and availability are very open. I am hoping this will be a great addition to my days. I have 2 cats at this time--I feed them twice a day (dry food and wet) and clean their kitty litter on a regular basis. I also spend time with them (usually with them lying on top of me. My cats are ~12 years old. One cat needs medication every other day--and I give this to her. I also cut their nails whenever it is needed. I would take care of my client's animals how the client wants them cared for--I would feed them when they need it, walk them or play with them for at least a set amount of time, and I would respect their boundaries (I would not force myself on them--but I will not let them get out of control and chase other animals or people.). I love animals and always have--and they seem to know this.
“Lux took Ozzy on a great neighborhood walk and shared a lot of fun pictures which made my day! She was thoughtful about a meet and greet ahead of time since this was our first walk. Looking forward to having her care for Ozzy again!”
“Thomas has been a life saver for us with our dog Guinness. He is always on time, he is reliable, he is patient with our somewhat moody, large dog, and he has become our regular walker 3x per week. Thomas is super responsive to messages and seems to genuinely enjoy spending time with Guinness. I highly recommend Thomas !”
“Great first walk for Maddie! She can be a little particular about who she walks with. She had no qualms whatsoever about Lydia and couldn’t wait to walk with her!”

About: For $20 off your first Rover sit, click this link: https://www.rover.com/sit/kathrk79757 Hi, I’m Kathryn, a transplant from the East Coast with a special love of animals. I say special because I was never allowed to have pets growing up so, for the past several years, I’ve been making up for lost time. I’ve cared for spry and senior dogs, aloof and engaged kitties, tailoring my efforts to each one’s specific needs. Whether you need someone to walk and play with your pooch or be a loving companion to your furry friend when you can’t be there, I’ll slip seamlessly into their routine, minimizing disruption with snuggles and attention. My “leave no trace” approach means that you’ll return to a house in pristine condition, with sheets and towels laundered, the bed remade, the vacuuming done, etc. so you can enjoy a carefree reunion with your pet. I believe that my professionalism and caring, detail-oriented methods set me apart. I’ve traveled the world to care for peoples’ cats and dogs while their owners are away, regularly returning to a community in France where my network has grown organically through word of mouth recommendations. When I’m not caring for animals, you can find me hiking on one of the many majestic trails this region has to offer or engaging in creative pursuits like jewelry making and design. As a freelancer and entrepreneur, I have a fluid schedule which allows me to shift directions quickly and effectively. I prefer this method of operating as I seldom have a dull moment during the day. I’m proud to have the trust of many repeat clients who praise my reliability and the bond I have with their pets. I know how important peace of mind is so regularly update my clients with photos, videos and messages.
“Amber was wonderful! The dogs were very comfortable with her, and she communicated easily and followed my instructions well. I'd definitely have her walk them again.”
About: As a dog & cat mom, I know the importance of finding trustworthy care for your family members. I have extensive experience caring for a variety of dog breeds, cats, rabbits & birds. I have over 10 years of experience volunteering for dog & cat rescues with the direct care of dogs in the shelter & fostering. I work full-time from home & have flexibility in my schedule to take care of your furry kids. I will only take on a limited number of clients to ensure the best care possible. I understand the importance of creating a safe environment, having adopted 2 timid dogs. Making sure to understand the pets individual needs & the owners requests for care is the first priority. I am extremely cautious of entering/leaving homes, double checking that doors are secure & locked. Sending updates & asking questions if I’m unsure of something.

I currently care for my own 3 well trained dogs, a german shepherd, cocker spaniel & a malti-poo. Each of these dogs have their own characteristics that help me understand every pet has their own unique personality and demands. I currently work from home and have a very flexible schedule. I am available for all your pets needs any day, or night, including weekends. I would prefer to care for your pet in the comfort of their own home & will treat your home as my own. I can walk or use a fenced in yard depending on your home.
