1. Jacqueline P.
“Onyx loves his time with Jacqueline. He trusts her and feels very assured with her. It’s been great having a place for him to go when he needs somewhere quiet and calm. I’m so grateful we found her and that she loves my nervous baby so well!”
2. April L.
“April is so sweet and it is obvious how much she loves animals! She’s communicative and kind. My senior dogs runs to her house on daycare days 😄”
3. Christine N.
“Christine is an amazing dog sitter! Her and her partner Aimee have built a safe and fun environment for the dogs in their care. My energetic pup had a blast at daycare with some great play buddies and came home tired and happy. I would highly recommend their services and will be booking again.”
4. Jody W.
“Jody watches my dog Hugo when we go out of town, and helps walk him during particularly busy times in our life - like when we had a new baby. She’s so good with him. He wags as soon as he hears her footsteps. I trust she will follow all of our instructions - even the most annoying and specific, about where to put food, etc. I promise you’re in great hands with Jody taking care of your pup.”
5. Angela H.
“Rocky had fun. Angela had a lot of knowledge to share from when she used to be a vet tech. Backyard is very big which dogs will appreciate. My pup is a heavy chewer so he can be hard to manage inside if there are any things laying around, so I need to look for other option moving forward and possibly without stairs because of his disability.”
6. Naomi B.
“Naomi is incredible!! She was such a massive help to us while my partner was away for a week. Our recently adopted fur baby Guillermo spent the day with her every time I had to go to work. He was clearly very comfortable and happy to see her and her dog mocha every day. Mocha clearly wanted to play but was patient while Guillermo figured out the situation as he was a little skittish and had never played with another dog before. Now he plays like a pro!! Naomi also worked wonders for his leash walking abilities and taught me some great tips and tricks for continuing his training. The whole time she kept us updated on his days and his progress with texts, photos, videos, and end of day reports. Cannot recommend her enough. Thank you Naomi!!”
7. Danielle G.
“Danielle was very friendly and attentive to Flora. She’s knowledgeable about dogs and also loves them! She communicated with me throughout the day and was very responsive to questions before we got together. Definitely will use again.”
8. Latricia K.
“I think my girl Maze had a great day at the doggie lounge. Latricia was wonderful to work with and she has everything figured out - helping Maze get settled in, making friends with another dog, feeding time. Loved the picture updates too. Thanks!! :)”
9. Robert & Brian D.
“I seriously cannot recommend Rob and Brian enough. Millie was frantically whining when she saw Rob standing outside waiting for her when I dropped her off this morning. She adores them and they take her on wonderful excursions! I feel completely at ease when she is in their care.”
10. Taryn & Jeffrey T.
“Taryn and her husband Jeff have lovingly cared for our dog Chips several times and he always comes back happy and healthy! Their dog Peixe is one of Chips's favorite playmates; Peixe is incredibly well-behaved and cared for beautifully. One time while watching Chips, the Bay Area had a crazy heat wave and I felt totally confident that he was safe and comfortable while we were away despite his thick fur and high energy level/exercise needs. Chips is a bit of a wild man on walks/hikes and they deal with him SO well! Loving, conscientious, safe, and fun - those are the hallmarks of Taryn's caregiving style <3”
11. Sandy M.
“We are so happy to have found Sandy! She is great with dogs and is super responsive. Wilkie has been having a blast at her place and we always get tons of cute pictures and videos!! :)”
12. Mary C.
“Mary is super attentive and caring. She gave detailed updates about how she was doing and sent lots of photos in which Shanti looks happy and relaxed, enjoying the company of her fur baby, Murphy. When I arrived at her place to pick her up. she was already standing in front of her apartment building so that I didn't have to wait for her to come out. So Sweet! I'd definitely ask her to look after my dog again in a heartbeat!”
13. Christjane V.
“Very happy choosing Chris to watch my 2 dogs. She was professional and she kept me updated. I will be using Chris for now on”
14. Jessie E.
“There is no one else (besides my family and friends) who I trust with Neo. And not only that, she is a kind and wonderful person all around. Thank you Jessie for everything that you do, and for taking care - above and beyond - of sweet Neo! 😄”
15. Nita W.
“I myself love animals and have a deep passion for dogs and with this passion I give love and reassurance to all pet parents and there needs”
16. Sophia D.
“Thanks Sophie for taking good care of our dog Hobbes! We had Sophie watch Hobbes while we attended a concert in Berkeley. We had drinks at a spot in Oakland beforehand and her place was a quick stop on the way to the venue. Hobbes seemed to have a blast playing while there. She shared some photos which was a nice touch. We will gladly reach out again if we need pet sitting in the area.”
17. Sneha A.
“Sneha is amazing! She worked for our family helping to care for my 3 kids and animals. She is kind, loving and so very responsible! Leaving your loved ones (human or furry) can be hard and takes a level of trust. Sneha not only made me feel at ease, but I always came home to a happy family. She takes this responsibility seriously, will work hard to understand what your pet needs, and is capable of meeting those needs. She is also great with kids if you need a sitter :)”
18. Alexis A.
“Alexis has looked after our dog twice now and she does a great job! He gets so much outdoor time and walks, and we get lots of updates and photos! We will definitely continue to book with Alexis.”
19. Malia K.
“Malia did a wonderful job providing a calm, safe and secure environment for our very hyperactive Pomeranian. Malia was communicative and always on time. We will definitely hire Malia again (in fact, we have!). Thank you for caring for MacGuyver Malia!”
20. Robert B.
“Thank you for being so responsive and flexible Robert. It made our rather unexpected day trip so much easier and more comfortable! We could tell our Gus had some good walking time and stimulation because he crashed out as soon as we got home. Thank you for the photos and checking in while Gus was in your care.”
