“Ashley is awesome! She came to my home and took care of my brand new puppy, who has quite a demanding schedule. I was a super anxious new puppy mom and she put me at ease, kept me updated, and was super flexible and accommodating. Basil loved her and I felt like he was in great hands. Absolutely recommend!”


“This was our second time booking with G’la, and once again, she absolutely knocked it out of the park! She took care of our dog Finn and cat Tuna while we were in Mexico for our wedding, and knowing they were with someone they already loved made all the difference. Our boys adore her! It’s clear they feel safe, spoiled, and totally at home in her care. She kept us updated with sweet photos and thoughtful check-ins, and we came home to two very happy pets (and a clean house!). G’la is trustworthy, kind, and just really gets animals. We wouldn’t leave Finn and Tuna with anyone else. Five stars, every time!”


“Yena was just wonderful. We have a newer dog to our home combined with our cat who is indoor/outdoor so we needed a house sitter as opposed to just check ins for boarding. Yena was very professional, and asked all the right questions. When we were gone we received regular check ins with photos and updates of our little fur babies. We will definitely call on Yena every time we need someone to help us with our pets in the future. My wife and I highly recommend her service. Thank you Yena!”


“Cara recently took care of Ralphie when I had an unexpected dogsitter cancellation. It was awesome that she was able to come by for a last minute meet-and-greet - Ralphie really loved her and I liked that she is punctual, accommodating, and gave regular updates. I came home to a happy dog and a clean place!”


“Della was incredibly responsive, warm, and caring to our dog! She sent lots of photos during the two day house stay and made sure our dog Pua got her medicine. We came home to a spotless house and homemade cinnamon roles in the fridge. Pua told us she had a great time with her new friend, would definitely recommend Della!”


“He followed all of my instructions to a T and was a great house guest. I really appreciate how fast he communicated with me throughout the process. My dog normally barks at people and his calm presence was a nice fit to keep Kuta calm.”


“I had Esteban house sit to look after my big, rambunctious dog Sable for 6 days. Not only did Esteban take amazing care of my dog, he left the house in incredible condition. All my dog’s needs were met, and he sent regular pupdates. I’m a very anxious person and it was my first time using Rover, but Esteban put me at ease and I am so glad I decided to go with him. I would 100% use Esteban again if I ever leave town. I believe it’s safer and easier on my dog than boarding her at a dog hotel. You da man, Esteban!”


“Cleopatra watched my cat for 5 weeks, I’m a first time pet owner and was leaving my baby for the first time, needless to say I was nervous! She was amazing from start to finish, super responsive, she sent me lots of pics of my very happy and spoiled cat :) If you’re considering booking with Cleopatra, I can’t recommend her enough. The peace of mind to know that my pet was in good hands was priceless!”


“Ana took very good care of my two kitties. I came home to happy cats and a neat house. She sent some pictures while I was away, which I always appreciate.”



“Ariana is wonderful! She sends frequent updates and pictures and you can tell she really loves dogs. Our Boxer puppy Hank, loves her. She also kindly deals with my nuerosis about leaving him. Highly recommended!”


“Pups got superb care - could not have asked for a better sitter. Great and descriptive updates, and loving attention to detail. Has gained an incredible amount of trust from us!!”


About: Ciao! My name is Matt and I'm very excited to have the opportunity to meet you and some of the amazing pets we have here in the city. I currently live near the rose garden/Piedmont. I live close to several other parks, and I always enjoy meeting new pet friends that come my way. I really don't have many restrictions, but all I ask is that if you are interested in meeting to discuss my services that we have great communication (whether it's email, call/text, etc.) I work from home during the week and actively get outside myself, so I'm sure we could work something out if you need help with your pet! Comfort and exercise go hand-in-hand in my experience. Play time and treats are always possible. Companionship is a must and routine is our next best friend.

“William was highly communicative, responsible, and trustworthy for us as he houses sat for us for 6 days. He was also patient with our shy dog and made sure to put in the work to get him to warm up to him. William was frequent with walks and pics/messages to keep us in the loop. Hope to use William for future stays and definitely recommend him and his services!”


“Angela was amazing! She offered to do a meet and greet before sitting, which was perfect for my dog who is a little wary of new people. I also got plenty of updates and pictures. And I was able to enjoy my time away worry free because she was in such good hands.”



“Judy was wonderful! She stayed with Hunky at our house over the Thanksgiving holiday, and everything went perfectly. We definitely hope she will take care of Hunky again!”


“Brady was awesome!! He stayed with my two dogs for 4 days and it couldn’t have gone smoother! I have a large 85 pound dog and a medium 40 pound dog. They are both high energy and can be a lot to handle. He was great with them and both of the dogs loved him. We also came home to a super clean apartment and he had washed the sheets for us! Would definitely use him again!”


“My little Taco loved Louis and Louis took care of my pup like his own. He was clear with communication and suggested we meet for a meet and greet which was such a great idea given how mistrustful my Taco can be with strangers. Will absolutely rebook and recommend to others!”


“Lisette was wonderful, she took great care of Zoe and left the house very clean and organized. Would definitely book again whenever we are out of town.”


“Kimmy was super attentive and communicative. She arrived on time and made it super easy! Arya and her had a great time together. Thanks so much!”


“Nevaeh took amazing care of my dog during my last trip. She went above and beyond to ensure my dog felt safe and happy, even taking her for a hike in the hills. I came back to a very relaxed and content pup. 💕 She was incredibly communicative, checking in and sharing updates, and was flexible when the schedule for my work meetings shifted and I needed to update timing. And I appreciated that she handled the extras of watching my house with grace, from collecting packages to my neighbor dropping by unexpectedly.”
