Charles did a fantastic job taking care of my two cats. He was very good about following instructions. He even helped me take out the trash, which was not a part of his job description. Super nice guy. I would definitely book him again.

About: I’ve been caring for animals since I was about six years old and have grown up with dogs my entire life. I currently have two dogs that I care for daily, including feeding, and taking them on walks and runs. I am also in charge of brushing there teeth! I’m very comfortable with regular routines, exercise, and basic grooming. In addition to dogs, I care for six chickens and a turtle at home, so I’m experienced with different types of animals and their needs. I’ve also pet-sat for neighbors, caring for dogs, a bunny, and a guinea pig. I truly love animals and treat every pet as if they were my own. Pet care fits really well into my routine. I’m available most days after school and am very flexible on weekends. I have reliable availability and can adjust my schedule to meet pets’ needs, whether that’s walks, drop-ins, or extended care. I take pet safety very seriously and always follow instructions provided by pet parents. I make sure pets are supervised, comfortable, and secure in their environment. I have two dogs who are very much escape artists so I am very used to rambunctious animals. I’m attentive to routines, feeding guidelines, and exercise needs, and I treat every home and animal with respect and care.

About: I've had dogs in my life since I was a middle schooler. Between my family dogs and dogs who have lived in my home since then I have been responsible for at least 7 dogs, of all shapes, sizes and demeanors. I've kept moody Dachshunds, energetic Shelties, even tempered Retrievers and even rescue Pitbulls. I love hiking and getting outdoors, and bringing a canine friend along. I currently have one dog of my own, a peppy rescue mix, and he is my best friend I am available to dog/house sit very regularly. I am an ecological land designer working most days from home with the exception of days where I need to do a site visit or connect with my team in person. I can pretty much work from anywhere with a good internet connection, so most days would be able to be around in case your dog needs more frequent walks or attention. In addition to dogs I love other pets and plants! If you have house plants, a veggie garden or other plants that need some watering or attention while you're away I'll be able to help in the department as well! I work from home most days, so I am able to be flexible around a pets needs regarding feeding, walks, and medication. Ocassionally I do have to leave home for work, and that is typically up to 4 hours. We have one dog at home and since we don't have a yard, we typically take him up on the ridge to walk, or to the Red hill Dog park or San Quentin beach. These are great places to have some fun exercise

About: I have owned and cared for dogs and cats for many years. I love taking dogs on walks that are just the right pace and distance for them. I mostly work from home and can adjust my schedule as needed most of the time. Morning and evening walks are ideal during the Summer months as it can get hot for both the dog and me. I make sure the pet has clean water, clean food bowls, food portioned and prepared as directed. I like to sit with the pet or walk the dog and talk to them in an encouraging tone.

I don’t really need to explain why Rachel deserves 5 stars, she just does. She was communicative every step of the way and SO patient with my problem puppy (who really just a little anxious). She sent pics and updates every day, came once without pay, and deserves 7/5 stars, let’s be real. She was never ever late, never ever skipped, and made it so easy being thousands of miles away from my babes!

About: I live nextdoor to a school for lots of field/ball play, next to hiking for more active dogs. I live in an apartment with a doggie door and gated backyard for easy potty trips. I'm happy to just hang out with your dog for company or keep them active! Respectful of your home if you prefer your pup stays home while you're away. My corgi loves the company! I grew up with smaller dogs and as an adult have cared for larger dogs. Once my neighbor's corgi adopted me, I fell in love with the breed and got my own! It's a large dog in a little body! Any questions? Just ask me! I work from home and make time to take my dog (and any guest dogs) out daily for lots of play and/or hike. Close access to parks, hills, and a beach My place is animal-friendly and my dog is allowed on all furniture. Yard is gated. In your home I can take them out daily plus lots of play.

Alaina, after three separate sits, has gotten my cats to come out from hiding when she’s around! I am so impressed with the patience and enthusiasm she showed towards my cats. She moved toys around for them (even hiding them for the cats!), left treats out, played their favorite music and finally the cats have started to trust her. She’s an amazing sitter and I cannot recommend her highly enough.

About: FIRST WALK $5 10% off all other services for first time booking :) I’m a Marin native and life long animal lover, so much so that this is my full time job! Whether walking, sitting, or just a drop in, your pet will be happy and expertly cared for while you’re away for woke or play 😄 👟 Walks are a full 30-60 minutes, the time starts when the leash goes on and the walk actually begins, not when the door opens. 🐕 I have training experience and am a master of patience (thanks to my own dog) when it comes to dogs and puppies of all sizes and shapes. My speciality is leash work (say goodbye to tugging & pulling), & separation anxiety issues particularly barking & whining while alone. 🏠 This is my full time job, so house stays (yours or mine) will have me home with your furry friend 100% of the time! 🏠 Stays include days at Stinson and San Quentin beach 🏖️ to dig in the sand & get some elusive winter sunshine ☀️ & relaxing walks in the Marin headlands 🌊! 🏠 For boarding, I have extra beds, treats and pets are allowed on the bed 🛌 🏠 My home offers an enclosed yard, and a field with bike paths across the street, a doggy dream! ⭐️ For day care, dogs and I will: 🏖️ go to the beach, hike Mt Tam, or relax in my apartment with an enclosed park with lots of treats (I’m literally a former cane counselor, think - sending your dog to summer camp!) I am available all hours of the day and night to make sure your pets are given the best care possible, both outside and inside your home I know dog and cat CPR and first aid, and I am very aware of household hazard to be aware of to keep your pets healthy and safe

About: I have raised 7 dogs, 6 cats over my 35yrs so far. I have experience with inconsistent dogs in old age as well as puppy training younger dogs. I’m between career roles currently so my schedule is open all week long. I do ask that if you need to cancel for any reason give me a notice at least one day in advance. I live near the Dawn Falls trail head that opens up into Mt. Tamalpais. This trail is pet friendly and is great exercise for dogs of any age. I also have a large backyard with a complete fence on all sides.

About: Hi! I have always loved animals. I have had dogs my entire life since we adopted my first dog, a black lab, from the humane society when I was 5. I have also volunteered at the humane society for many years on a regular basis. I am home full time right now and my priority is giving the animals I look after the best possible care and of course lots of love! I just want them to be happy and comfortable with me. Reach out with any questions you may have. This is my main job at the moment and I have a very flexible schedule during the week. I have a 4 year old daughter with me 50% of the time and she is a sweet, gentle, fun lover of animals and the outdoors too. I have no pets myself right now so I have a lot of time and energy to care for your dogs and cats. I have cared for many of my own pets, and they lived happy, long lives. With me, you have a trustworthy, competent, and caring animal lover. My number one priority is making sure your pet is happy and safe while at home or out on an adventure.

Ariela was brilliant, she looked after our 6 year old bulldog for 10 days. Our dog gets stressed out when boarded which leads to the dreaded bulldog skin issues every-time we go away. This was our first time booking drop in visits with Rover and it was great. Joey was looking better than ever when we returned all down to Ariela’s care. She followed his skin and eye routine and administered his medication daily. I always enjoyed getting update of him playing at the local dog park and getting lots of attention at home. I will be booking Ariela again

She’s also brought her dog with her (after asking me if it was ok, which I gladly said yes to!), and her dog has also been great with my puppy and helps tire him out:) would highly recommend.
