Kristine was very professional and very accommodating to our dogs’ needs especially one of our dogs who can be a bit domineering towards other dogs. Luckily our temperamental dog got along just fine with her dog which made things go more smoothly however she gave us the option to have her dog stay at a relative’s house in the instance there was any tension between our dogs. Kristine also made sure to give us daily updates on our dogs which included pictures which was very much appreciated. We’ll definitely be booking with Kristine in the future!

I highly recommend Ivan's services - while just a short 1 day stay, he took great care of our pup. He came back to us 24 hours later well-fed and having taken multiple long walks. Ivan kept us updated throughout the stay w/ quick snippets and several pictures. We will definitely request Ivan's help again!

Diana was excellent with my senior dog Ellie. She took such good care of her. Diana gave her so much loving attention and kindness. I could see how quickly my dog adjusted to being with Diana and her family. This was my first time with diana as a pet sitter, it could not have gone any better. Thank you diana so much for your love for Ellie.

William was an amazing dog sitter! I’m beyond joyed. Every day, he sent me a photo of my dog looking deliriously happy. I think my dog also especially enjoyed hanging out with his dog Audi. He was even upset to come home because of how much fun he had with William. In addition, William was flexible and responsive. He is very reliable, and plus, I felt super safe leaving Hugo with someone who is studying vet science. Hugo usually has anxiety issues but was so well behaved and taken care of. Thank you so much, again!!!!!!

This was our dog Clover’s first extended stay with Anna (multiple days instead of doggy day care) and she had a wonderful time. Communication with Anna was great and we got lots of updates and pictures. Clover gets along great with Anna’s dog Duke. We will definitely work with Anna again.

Alison is an incredible caregiver and dog walker for my dog Richie. He loves her. When he hears her car pull up to my house, Richie speeds to my front door, howling and wagging his tail. He knows he's about to go on a delightful doggie adventure filled with new sights and smells. He loves walking along the Coyote Point trails, and Ali takes him there. She was pet-sitting for him while I was out of town she loved and cared for Richie to the maximum. She would send pictures of him working under her desk while she took Zoom calls and playing soccer with her kids. Ali has a huge heart and loves animals. I can't recommend her more as a trustworthy, responsible sitter for your pet.

Sara and Wilson were great caregivers to Nacho. I love their house and yard set up and they made drop off and pick up very easy. Sara has had dogs all of her life and understood all of the care details with little explanation. Wilson is a great playmate for Nacho, too. I will definitely book again!

Deborah is absolutely amazing! I could not imagine a more perfect situation for Pepper’s care. He was with her for four days. Deborah cared for him as we would—lots of quality time and affection. She was very attentive to maintaining consistency in his routines and addressing his special needs. (He can become fearful when he sees men and start barking. We told Deborah how the trainer recommends we help Pepper with that on walks, and Deborah already knew the approach and was great implementing it.) I had such a feeling of comfort and reassurance with him in her care. And he loved her, cuddling and snuggling like he does with us, She sent frequent updates with pictures and was great with communication. And, she is also such a lovely person. Thank you Deborah!

Stella had so much fun at this stay! Diana and Mike were lovely. Diana helped our doggie with her ears and Mike took her to the park and played fetch daily, and the sent some cute pictures too. Stella was so relaxed when she came home; it was obvious she was well cared for and had a great time.

Devin and Mai were absolutely amazing with Jax. This is the second time he was going to stay with them and as soon as we got to their door he got so excited. It is the best feeling dropping him off and not having him cry or get upset because he knows he is going to get to hangout with Devin and Mai. I highly highly recommend them and we will continue to use them in the future.

About: I live in San Mateo in a fenced in yard. We have a friendly golden retriever who would love an occasional furry friend. Your dog will get 2 walks a day and all-day access to backyard. We do have a pool. I work only part time from home so i will be available most of the day. Your dog will get a morning and evening walk. Possibly some trips to dog park or beach but depends on weather and schedule. I have a fenced in yard and golden retriever. I do have a pool in the backyard so I will supervise when dogs are out there. Dog can sleep in a crate if you have one or in dog bed in kitchen

Anne has watched my very needy Pomeranian on multiple occasions. He loves staring out onto the deck as well as hanging out in the gated courtyard. I love that he gets some time outside instead of being in a kennel. She is always gracious if we need to extend his stay for an additional day.

Jade and Jeff recently cared for my shy and not very social dog and she had a wonderful time. They are patient and caring and their yard is completely fenced in. While I was away they sent me photos and videos of my dog having a great time on walks and chasing after her tennis ball. I don't think my dog wanted to leave when I picked her up! She had undivided attention and care the entire time. They are easy to communicate with and have competitive rates. I highly recommend them for your pet care needs.
