1. Lori & Frank R.

“Lori is the most compassionate and caring dog sitter I’ve ever met. My dog was injured while I was out of town, and she picked up and took care of my dog with such kindness and compassion. She communicated with me all throughout the day and night until I was able to make it back home. Ziggy & I are so grateful for her. I couldn’t recommend a sitter more!!! She’s amazing!!!”

5. hannah h.

“Hannah was the BEST dog sitter that we've had through Rover. Her and her husband took exceptionally good care of our dog theo. She's an excellent communicator and sent amazing photos of their daily adventures (the trail, the beach, and more). She gladly accommodated his dietary restrictions and the administration of his medicine. She was extremely attentive to Theo's needs and personality. We will absolutely be having Theo stay with Hannah again and we highly recommend her to any pet parents.”


6. Carla G.


“Carla took such great care of our pup Pippa! She made sure there was plenty of activity each day and we received many updates. Pippa had so much fun and we felt at ease our pup was in good hands. We will definitely use Carla again in the future!”

“Our Bernedoodle Wilbur had a wonderful time staying the night with Marisa and her sweet family. Marisa was loving and kind with Wilbur, giving me updates on how he was doing and his eating. We will definitely ask Marisa again to care for Wilbur. We highly recommend!”


9. Gigi W.
About: I love animals of all shapes and sizes, dogs most of all. I am able to take care of your dog with concierge-like attention, to their needs, activity level and interests. I also won’t ever walk your dog with more than one dog, and always solo if necessary, as this is not my primary source of income. I work from home and have flexible hours, and I am centrally located around Fairfax and San Anselmo, where there are plenty of pretty walks and or hikes. I have one dog who basically gets along with any dog he comes across, unless your dog is a bit grumpy, then we will walk him separately for sure. I don’t walk more than two dogs at once and they need to be at the same energy level as well as temperament.


10. Jesse W.

“Jesse was incredible with my pup! He was so flexible to meet us at a nearby park where my dog was most comfortable. He was so patient to learn about her personality and needs. He kindly did not book other dogs while my dog was staying with him as I had requested. My dog has a decent amount of energy, and I was so happy that Jesse would take her running and hiking. She had the best time, I knew she was in good hands, and I would absolutely book Jesse again.”


11. Lillie H.

“Lillie was wonderful, and I would highly recommend her! It was our first time leaving Bear with her- she sent lots of photos and videos which gave us peace of mind. Bear has issues with anxiety but came home a very happy boy! Thank you Lillie!”




12. Allie N.
“Allie is a pet lover, through and through. She has lived her whole life in a house full of dogs and cats. She has taken care of my dog many times and always gives him so much love and attention. I have no doubt about Allie being a loving and responsible care-giver of pets.”


13. Mary K.

“Tessa loved Mary and Mark. Their kindness and care were perfect for our old English cream retriever. Tessa loved their home, neighborhood walks, and constant love. She can't wait to return! Thank you so much Mary and Mark!”


14. Sonia K.

“Sonia was so great with our 4 1/2 month old puppy who played with her puppy. She sent pictures while we were away. It was great to know that our fur baby was in good hands.”


15. Lydia P.

“Lydia was wonderful! I would recommend her in a heartbeat. Murf was immediately comfortable in her home due to her sweet and relaxed demeanor. She was super communicative - sending great photos and updates on their days together. I’m so happy we found her!”


16. Kevin M.

“Kevin is fantastic. We went away for a week to Florida and our two Springer Spaniels stayed with Kevin. He updated us during the week with messages and lovely photos of their walks together. I felt very reassured and knew our dogs were in a caring and loving environment. Will be definitely using Kevin again.”


17. Sylvie W.

“We would highly recommend Sylvie! They have a lovely family, were very communicative, and took Maple on tons of fun walks and hikes. We would love to use her again!”




18. Heather H.

“Heather was fantastic! She was extremely easy to work with and responsive and took great care of our dogs. One of our dogs is especially nervous in new environments and can be reactive with other dogs. Heather was able to get him to calm down and settle and provided plenty of updates and pictures to let us know they were doing great.”


19. Larissa Q.

“Larissa is great! Our dog had a small injury and couldnt go to the place we normally board her, Larissa was available on short notice to board her for a couple nights. She’s very confident with dogs, was communicative and sent picture updates, and our dog came back home nice and happy!”
