About: I'm the go-to sitter for all our family and friends. I've had two senior dogs and have raised puppies as well. I've helped train neglected rescues and volunteer at the local shelter. We hand make a variety of human grade treats from home. I primarily work from home, can provide 2x daily walks in addition to regular potty breaks and multiple outings weekly (parks, pet stores, trails etc) We have a fenced yard, and a friendly host pup. I have two XL Gunner kennels in case crating is a part of your pup's routine or if it became unexpectedly necessary.
“Nataly was amazing with our dog Mia! We were so happy to receive a ton of photos after every walk. She was very thorough in her Rover cards, had outstanding communication, and was open to doing a meet and greet with us beforehand. We will definitely be reaching out to her for walks in the future!”

About: I'm absolutely crazy about animals. I prefer them over the company of humans and will be that person playing with your pet at any gathering. I've had many cats my whole life (always a minimum of 2 at a time) and their temperaments have ranged from the hissing loner to the friendly ones that follow me on a walk around the neighbourhood. I co-raised a very un-loyal husky for 8 years (her loyalty lay with whoever had food) and also take care of friends and family's dogs whenever the situation arises. I'm more than happy to give whatever attention your fur baby needs, whether it be a peaceful walk filled with compliments or some good ol' rough housing. I'll make sure to feed your baby only the things you deem worthy of their stomach.
“Holly was AMAZING with Lilo. As a large puppy, she was calm, confident and so taken to him. Her communication was excellent and gave me such detailed notes. She certainly put me at ease knowing Lilo was happily walked. So happy to have found a dog walker that equally loves Lilo!”

“I had Cristina walk my dog for 2 weeks while I was away and would definitely book with her again! She's very attentive and gave me detailed updates. She also welcomed all the instruction I provided prior :)”


About: If you're looking for a pet sitter who truly gets animals, you're in the right place! I grew up in a busy household with three cats, so I'm an expert at feline snuggles, playtime, and feeding schedules. When it comes to pups, I love them all, from energetic young doggos who need to burn off some serious puppy energy, to sweet senior doggos who just want a slow, gentle walk and some quality couch time. I can't wait to meet your pets and give them the five-star care they deserve! I recently graduated with my Master of Social Work (MSW) and am currently available at any time of day while I look for employment in my field. This means your pets will have my absolute, undivided attention! Because I only offer services in your home, my absolute priority is maintaining your pet's established routine so they feel safe and secure while you are away. As a Master of Social Work graduate, I bring a high level of responsibility, empathy, and respect into your space.
“I was walking my dog Chase and ran into some neighbors that have had the pleasure of meeting Mike and only had great things to say about him!!! We really appreciate the time he spends with our dog. Thank you Mike 😎”

About: Use code ELAINH89783 for $20 off your first booking! With over five years of pet sitting experience, I bring genuine care, reliability, and calm attentiveness to every stay. Because I have no pets of my own, your dog receives my complete, undivided focus — no distractions, no divided loyalties. I’m experienced with dogs of all ages and breeds, from high-energy pups to senior companions, and I pride myself on respecting each pet’s unique routine and personality. I take direction seriously — whether from owners or veterinarians — and follow care instructions to the letter. Your home is treated with the same respect: I keep things tidy and leave everything exactly as I found it. My regular clients say it best: I’m the only sitter trusted to watch Haku, a spirited Shiba Inu who needs firm, loving boundaries. I’ve helped nurse Zula, a Taiwanese mountain dog, through a stroke and a serious infection — following vet aftercare with precision. I know how to keep an active dog engaged and an elderly dog comfortable and happy. If you’re looking for someone who treats your pet like family, stays calm under pressure, and gives you genuine peace of mind while you’re away — I’d love to meet your dog. I voluntarily left my full time job so you have my undivided attention! I also work remote so my schedule is flexible and I’m very mobile! I treat your home and your pets with respect, kindness, compassion, and love. I’m a guest in your family’s home and would not do anything to jeopardize that relationship. At home, I make sure necessary doors and windows are closed and the space is clean tidy so no ingestion accidents happen. Before any outside activities, I make sure the temperature isn't too hot and can defer to inside enrichment activities if outside temps are dangerous. During walks and playtime I remain attentive to not only your dog's behavior but the external environment to ensure both our safety. I provide text and picture updates at an agreed upon cadence. In the event accidents happen, you will be notified by text and voice immediately and necessary safety protocols will be followed.

“Buster can be a handful on walks, but Paul did a great job with giving him exercise and establishing boundaries. Lots of great updates and photos, and a big help overall! We'll definitely be rebooking :)”

“I have two big fun dogs that require attention on two different energy levels and the right person to keep them happy. Bobby was great, he got along with both dogs immediately and had no issues dealing with both energy levels. They always looked forward to his visits. I found Bobby to be reliable and flexible depending on my schedule. He communicates well. I won"t hesitate to call him again. Thanks Bobby!”

“Christine is very good with dogs. Interactive and knowledgeable! She makes both you and your dog feel at ease! She took Bowie out with her dog Bailey! They got sling great! I would highly recommend her for your dogs next walk! Thanks so much Christine!?”

About: I'm an animal lover with 10+ years of experience caring for dogs, cats, and small pets. I take the time to understand each pet's needs so they feel safe and comfortable while you're away. Whether your pet loves walks, playtime, cuddles, or quiet companionship, I'm happy to provide attentive care. I'm dependable, patient, and will keep you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands. I am currently taking online classes, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to dedicate quality time to caring for pets. My routine allows me to accommodate walks, drop-in visits, playtime, feeding schedules, and plenty of attention throughout the day. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and love helping pet owners feel confident that their pets are safe, happy, and well cared for. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are my top priorities. I provide a calm, clean, and loving environment and carefully follow each pet’s individual routine, including feeding schedules, exercise needs, medications, and any special instructions. When caring for pets in your home, I will treat your space with respect and provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.
“Sophi is fantastic with dogs, she fits into the household schedule perfectly and makes sure our day goes easier with a well exercised dog. Highly recommend! Mokah ❤️ Sophia!”

“Adam has been our go-to dog whisperer since moving to the Bay Area two years ago. We were lucky to have him housesit for us while we were gone for a few days recently. He was great with our Akita, Pitt-mix, and two energetic cats. He kept us informed with what was going on, sending pictures and updates throughout the day. Since then he’s walked our monsters a few other times and he’s handled it like a pro. His great personality makes him a great fit for our pack, as well as someone we trust to have in our home. All of us are big fans of Adam. You’re lucky you found him.”


About: As an experienced dog owner, I love working with dogs of all shapes, sizes, and personalities. While I specialize in large breeds and high-energy working dogs who need confident handling and structured exercise, I am equally attentive, gentle, and patient with medium and small dogs. No matter the size, your pup is in safe, capable hands. As a flexible local professional, pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine. Because I manage my own schedule, I am out and about in the Pasadena area every day, making it easy to accommodate prompt drop-ins and structured walks when you need them most. My routine is highly active, which is perfect for high-energy working breeds that need consistent, timely mid-day exercise to break up their day. At the same time, my flexibility allows me to easily tailor my schedule for smaller or senior dogs who need dedicated, calm potty breaks and attention. Whether you need a regular weekly schedule or occasional check-ins, I build my days around ensuring your pets get consistent, reliable, and on-time care. When caring for your pets, my absolute priority is safety, structural consistency, and clear communication. For Dog Walking & Drop-In Visits: I tailor every visit to your dog's specific size, energy level, and temperament. For large or high-energy breeds, I focus on confident leash handling, maintaining their established training commands, and giving them a robust, engaging workout to burn off steam safely. For medium and smaller dogs, I adjust the pace to ensure a comfortable, stress-free stroll or focused playtime. For House Sitting (In Your Home): I respect your space entirely and keep your dog’s exact home routine intact to prevent any separation anxiety. I ensure they are fed on time, kept on their regular potty schedule, and given plenty of attention. You will receive regular check-ins and high-quality photo updates during every single service so you always have total peace of mind.
About: I’ve loved dogs since forever. Since moving out of my family home, I’ve felt an emptiness until adopting my own dog, Nemo! I’ve cared for and trained multiple family dogs, along with my own dog. Im always looking for photo ops for pups I’m with too. I’m confident I’m able to assist your short term pet care needs! I’m currently in between work so my schedule is flexible. My dog has daily walks at 8am and 6pm when the sun isn’t too hot, and we’d love to have your dog join us! I have a backyard for the dogs to play during the day and designated walk times (8am and 6pm). I’m open to what your pet needs from me! I enjoy taking my dog out to explore new parks and would love to have your pup join us!

Sofia has not known Ollie that long. but he is very comfortable with her. She listens to his over anxious human (me) and she is attentive, conscientious. calm, and observant to his need for structure. . Its such a relief to have my boy in tbe hands of someone who respects his terrier nature and little big dog attitude. She will be a great doctor!
Richard is such an amazing and thoughtful dog walker. Although he only met Corey once and Corey is very timid with new people, Richard’s reassurance and patience helped Corey see him as a trustworthy leader and friend! I highly recommend Richard to anyone looking for their furry friend to be cared for as if he/she was Richard’s own.

Victoria is great with my senior border collie! I need a walker during the day when I'm at work and Victoria has been a life saver! She listens to direction, asks necessary questions and gives me a detailed report after the walk. I can tell that my big baby is happier with his walks while I'm away. I highly recommend her for your doggies!

Katie is wonderful! She is so sweet, patient and gentle with our senior border collie. I can tell that he is loving his walks with her when I'm not home. She follows instructions very diligently and even picks up my mail off the floor! (without my request, very considerate!) I highly recommend Katie, she will treat your baby like her own.
