Anaïs did an amazing job taking care of our dog while we were away! She did twice daily check ins and was very punctual and communicative. Our dog has medical needs that were met while we were away. We would definitely hire Anaïs again!

Our dogs can be nervous around new people and seeing how happy and relaxed they were when Maia came by for drop-in visits was such a joy! Getting photo updates and communication from Maia put our minds at ease, we are grateful to know they are in good hands with her and will be booking again.

Emma, is really one of the best pet sitters we’ve ever had. She is really professional and most importantly caring and loving towards our dogs. She is really in her element with animals as she is proactive about giving them plenty of attention and walks. We are so happy to consider her our primary go-to dog care taker. We’ve actually gone so far as to have her fly all the way out to our home in Hawaii… she’s that good!

Zara took wonderful care of our cat, Emmy, when we left town on short notice to care for a sick relative. For three weeks Zara came by our house reliably each day to scoop cat litter, refill food and water, and pet / play with Emmy, giving lots of snuggles, and she even brought in packages from our front porch. We really appreciated the care and attention Zara brought to her role, including sending us pictures and videos of Emmy daily. It was very reassuring to know that our cat (and our home) were well cared for during our absence, especially during a stressful time in our lives. We would 100% hire Zara again.

About: Hi! My name is Jasmin, I am 22 years old and live in Oakland, Ca. I have experience with dogs as I own one myself and most of my family own dogs themselves. I have experience with puppies, adults, small, and medium sized dogs. I’ve always had patience and sympathy for animals as they are also living creatures with emotions. From pugs to pitbulls I care for dogs as if they were all mine! I am currently looking for a side job and found this site which I think would be a perfect side hustle as I love dogs and have enough free time ! I also have my own car so mobility won’t be an issue. I live in a house with a backyard that has plenty of room and toys!! It is wooden fenced up so there’s no running away from this home ! All dogs are received with love as I understand how cruel the outside world can be to our fur babies.

Megan did such an amazing job taking care of our pup for us. It is obvious that she LOVES dogs, and our dog LOVED her. She sent us lots of pictures and videos and went completely above and beyond what was expected. We are so grateful and will definitely ask Megan to take care of our pup again, especially since I’m pretty sure our dog misses her already. Thank you so much, Megan!

Kristi is amazing... My four doggos absolutely adored her! She was willing to come to my home last minute for a meet and greet and drop in on the weekend to check on them. Kristi has a special way with animals and is very caring. I received live updates and photos during her visit which left me feeling relieved knowing they were in good hands. 10 stars. I highly recommend her for your pets needs:)

Laura has been an amazing caregiver for my dog, Reese, time and time again. I’ve hired her multiple times during holidays and work trips, and she always exceeds my expectations. Reese feels comfortable, happy, and completely trusts her. I’m usually nervous about leaving my dog with strangers or at dog hotels, but Laura provides the perfect solution by staying at my home so Reese can remain in his own familiar space. It’s never easy to be away from my dog for an extended period, but knowing Laura’s dedication and love for dogs gives me peace of mind. I highly recommend her!

Chad has all the perfect traits of a dog sitter. He loves every dog, no matter its size or temperament. He is kind, patient, and responsible. I have known his own dogs over the past quarter century, and they have all been very happy, long-lived companions. I would not hesitate to leave my beloved companions on Chad's care.

About: I’ve been caring for pets for over 5 years, including professional work at dog hotels and lots of hands-on experience with my own cat and family dogs from my early childhood. At my main job, Im currently working early mornings 5 days a week. I am available after 2:00 pm Thursday-Monday and am available all day on Tuesday and Wednesday. In a client’s home, I follow the pet’s routine to minimize stress, offering walks, play, and companionship. I ensure the home is clean and secure, and I take special care of any specific requests or needs the pet has.

We had Nia drop by twice a day to help take out our 17 yr old dachshund for potty breaks. She was always on time, very professional, and extremely communicative. She also sent lots of photos to let us know how things were going. We will be looking to have Nia do drop-in visits in the future and overnight stays.

Chika was a fantastic house sitter—easygoing, dependable, and really thoughtful. She took great care of our dog Bob, who clearly felt comfortable and well looked after while we were away. She was attentive to all the little instructions we left (including some of our more specific dog quirks) and kept the house clean and in great shape. We also really appreciated how flexible she was with timing and communication. It made leaving home a lot less stressful knowing everything was in such good hands. Would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a kind and responsible sitter!
