About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my personalized approach to each dog, ensuring they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you're away. I have experience with both puppies and senior dogs, and a special connection to them. My family and I raised our beloved Black Lab, Jack, from the time he was 8 weeks old until he passed this past June at 15 years old. As he aged, our care for him adapted to his changing needs, ensuring he remained comfortable in his senior years. I also dog sit my partner’s Frenchie, Benji, who is 3 years old with lots of energy! For puppies, I focus on positive reinforcement techniques to help them build good habits and learn basic commands. Similarly, with senior dogs, I pay close attention to their mobility and provide gentle walks, along with extra care to keep them comfortable. Whether it's playtime or a relaxing stroll, I always strive to make every dog feel special and well cared for. I just graduated with my Bachelors this past December at SJSU, so I have lots of time on my hands! I’m currently at a part-time position, so I am available Monday-Saturday after 2:30PM for dog walks and animal visits/walks Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday all day. If I’m caring for a pet in the client’s home, I stick to their established routine as closely as possible to minimize any stress. I make sure to follow any specific instructions regarding feeding, medication, or training. I also offer regular updates to the pet owner, keeping them informed of how their pet is doing. Whether in my home or theirs, I focus on creating a safe and loving environment that meets their individual needs. I also love to incorporate play time with the animals!


9. Jeanette B.

“Jeanette has walked Lana a couple of times now and we are happy, Jeanette is responsive and does well with Lana and fills out the Rover card with photos and good information about how the walk went.”


10. Desirea L.

“I was nervous about finding a new dog walker for Truffle since he is reactive towards other dogs, but Desirea was an absolute dream. She is patient and gentle which I really appreciate. It’s clear that she has experience handling dogs with different behaviors and needs. Thank you, Desirea, for your effort and dedication!”


11. Donna S.

“Donna was awesome! She went above and beyond. She even returned one day to give Nina her dinner and play with her some more. I will definitely be using her in the future.”


12. karol h.
“Love Karol ! Before her I had a different service for my dog. It was okay but once my dog met Karol he fell in love and so did I . She goes above and beyond for my baby. Treats my baby like if it was her own. I 100% reccomend her for your fur babies”


13. Nicole F.
“Nicole is simply wonderful all the way around. Truly professional, punctual, extremely caring and attentive person to care for any of our four legged loved ones. Nicole can be 100% trusted and follows directions precisely. I can not recommend her enough. Thank you Nicole!”


14. Aimee R.
“For the time that I have known Aimee, she made it clear she's a dog person. She takes her dog, Oliver, everywhere and any dog she sees she is very enthusiastic about meeting them. Aimee is kind, responsible and dog-smart when caring for her own dog as well as others. She is a delight to interact with and I know she would be a great dog walker/sitter. I would trust Aimee to care for my dog and recommend her dog services to others.”


15. Nicole C.

“Nicole came through for me in a pinch following a back procedure that left me too groggy to walk my Yorkies. My dogs have been especially anxious and reactive following our move a few weeks ago, but she was so patient with them both. Will definitely hire her again to care for my fur babies!”


16. Arbella T.
“Arbella watched my two dogs and cat while I was gone for a week on vacation. She sent pictures with updates on how they were doing. She was very friendly with my pets after meeting them which put me at ease. She took them on walks which was great. I would highly recommend and use her in the future.”


17. Camille R.

“I didn’t personally meet Camille but Nala my husky seemed happy after the walks ?”


18. Jocelyn L.


“We were very happy with Jocelyn and so was our dog. Jocelyn was very friendly and pleasant to deal with. We didn't have use her overnight services, but she walked our dog for us and it worked out really well. We will definitely use her again. And our dog is a big, strong dog but that didn't bother Jocelyn at all.”

About: Mi casa es su casa! We would love to extend our home and share our place with your pet. It would be our pleasure to make them feel welcomed and one with our family! Love and connectedness inspires us - that feeling of our hearts growing. In our divine home, we are narrators, dancers, and cuddlers with our furry loved ones. My husband and I understand the difficulty of leaving the furry ones for long periods of time - or even at all :) We would strive to provide our lovely fur babies with enough playtime, affection, and attention as needed. We are mindful of what we feed our pets - definitely conscious of their health. The atmosphere and environment we create, is to keep our home immensely calm. We are a collective of, kindness, gentleness, patience, safety, and love. It is meaningful to us that all have a place to feel accepted and cared for. We are grateful for you! As a backup caregiver, family assistant, and nanny, my heart truly lies in supporting families and children. My husband and I prioritize being present at home, ensuring that our loved ones, including our furry friends, are never alone. We understand the importance of flexibility in busy lives, and we're here to provide compassionate care and support whenever it's needed. We’re three (including our doggie). Our three-bedroom house and home have ample space for up to four fur babies comfortably. We keep all of the front and back doors locked, and we live at the end of a cul-de-sac. There's plenty of yard space for them to run, sunbathe, and play.
