“Andrew was so amazing! He followed my instructions perfectly. He is clearly experienced and takes his job seriously. He was very friendly, and professional. I’m happy I finally found a reliable person to take care of my dog. Will be booking again. Thank you so much, Andrew!”


About: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life. Over 20 years of experience caring for puppies, seniors, shy dogs, high-energy dogs, dogs with medical needs, and everything in between. Most of my clients come from referrals and repeat bookings, but I’m accepting new clients for the summer. I offer walks, overnight care, and drop-ins, and treat every dog like my own. 💛 I plan my day around my dog’s schedule and I’m happy to do the same for yours. I work from home mostly, so my hours are flexible. As a dog mom myself, I know how much updates and photos matter, so I always stay in touch with pet parents. I carefully follow all instructions and routines provided, with your dog’s comfort, safety, and happiness as my top priority. For boardings- I live in a peaceful neighborhood, and my home is spacious with a large fenced backyard and grassy area for dogs to play and relax. I have an 8-year-old senior German Shepherd named Lily who has some mobility issues, so the home is set up with rugs throughout for traction and steps up to the bed for easier access. It’s ideal for dogs in the same stage of life, while still comfortable for any dog. Lily is very sweet, gentle, and extremely friendly with other dogs. She is well-socialized, playful, and enjoys having other dogs around. She has never met a dog she didn’t get along with. Please note: Your dog will never be left alone or unattended.
About: I’m reliable, attentive, and genuinely care about the animals I watch. I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own and make sure they’re safe and comfortable while in my care I have a senior dog of my own, so I’m very familiar with routines, medications, and taking things at an older pet’s pace. Over the years I’ve watched dogs, cats, turtles, birds, snakes, and just about anything else you can think of. I spent many years as a teacher, but recently made the decision to step into a slower pace of life. Now I’m available daily for pet visits or dogs walks. I love being able to give animals the calm, consistent attention they deserve. Right now I provide pet care (daily visits, walks etc) exclusively in my clients’ homes, allowing pets to stay comfortable in their familiar environment. I do not offer care in my own home.
“This is the 3rd time I’ve used Noah while on vacation. He is always on time and very trustworthy. Lilly loves him and looks forward to her walks. Thank Noah for everything!!!”

“Kyle is a great dog walker. He provided photos and updates on my pup. I trusted him to give my pup the best care, always looking out for his best interest. I highly recommend Kyle.”


About: Hi, My name is Diana and I have a genuine love for animals. I try to create a special bond between me and your pet in order to provide the best care for your pet. I am a Reiki practitioner and have worked before with pets to alleviate anxiety and stress which in turn creates a more comfortable environment for both the owner and the pets. My speciality is house calls, dog walking and drop-in visits. I pride myself on my adaptability and responsibility towards everything I do. I am educated in the need of your pet and respond accordingly and efficiently to every pets need. I am a very patient, enthusiastic and loving provider. In addition, I speak English, Romanian, Spanish and French.I would love to show you my dedication and professionalism as your newest Pet Sitter and Dog Walker. I am looking forward to working with you soon.

About: Hello, I'm Angelo! I've worked with pets since I was a child, and would love to help you free up valuable time while helping your pet get the care they deserve. I grew up with many animals and was responsible for their care, including regularly walking 4 dogs at once. As I became a teenager, I started working within my neighborhood walking the neighbors' dogs, and professionally worked as a dog walker entering college. Assisting people's animals helped put me through undergrad, and I'm excited to resume to help put me through graduate school. I've worked across the spectrum, from small dogs with big tempers to very large dogs full of energy, as well as puppies and elder dogs. I'm also very familiar with caring for cats/kittens, and even less traditional pets such as snakes, bearded dragons, leopard geckos, fish, shrimp, and even jumping spiders! As a bonus, I'm well versed in caring for house plants of different varieties. I hope this helps you feel at ease entrusting me with your pet's care. Thank you for your time and I look forward to working together. I am completely available this summer for daily dog-walking and sitting needs! This includes weekdays and weekends, from 8 am to 9 pm. If you're interested in a regular schedule, I'm happy to talk! I'm comfortable with new situations and environments, and can easily crate your dog if needed. I'm also familiar with many different leash/harness set ups. I likewise do strength training, so in the event a dog needs to be picked up, I have been trained in animal first aid carrying techniques and can do so even with larger dogs.

“Absolutely the best Dog walker. 11/10. Very flexible, communicative, and understands dogs and their behavior. I would recommend to anyone and I would definitely use his services again. Thank you Paul.”

“Mike is incredibly professional, friendly, and took such great care of our dog. He was focused on making sure he did everything according to our dog’s regular schedule, and he was very skilled at managing our dog (who can be a handful). I will definitely book Mike again and I recommend him as your next dog walker/sitter.”

“We love Alejandro! He’s very good with our little baby bear Watson. He’s always on time and sends the best pictures which we appreciate since we miss our baby while we’re away. Thank you again Alejandro!”


About: I provide a highly attentive, structured environment where your dog becomes part of the family, ensuring they get everything they need and more. A Welcoming, Social Home: I have a friendly dog who loves company and a daughter who adores dogs, meaning your pet will receive constant affection and socialization. Versatile & Specialized Care: I confidently handle a wide variety of dogs. My experience includes training young pets with positive reinforcement and providing patient, dedicated senior care. Constant Attention: Thanks to a highly flexible schedule, your dog will rarely be left alone and will receive consistent supervision, exercise, and tailored care. Pet care fits very naturally into my routine, as I have a highly flexible schedule and can prioritize walks, exercise, feeding, and check-ins throughout the day and week. This allows me to be reliable with timing, adapt to pets’ needs, and accommodate both recurring care and last-minute requests. I care for pets in my home by following their routine closely so pets feel safe and comfortable in their own environment. I make sure they’re fed on schedule, have fresh water, get proper exercise and enrichment, and receive plenty of attention and affection. I keep the home clean, handle litter or waste, monitor behavior and health, and provide updates so owners feel confident their pets are well cared for while they’re away.
“Adam has been our go-to dog whisperer since moving to the Bay Area two years ago. We were lucky to have him housesit for us while we were gone for a few days recently. He was great with our Akita, Pitt-mix, and two energetic cats. He kept us informed with what was going on, sending pictures and updates throughout the day. Since then he’s walked our monsters a few other times and he’s handled it like a pro. His great personality makes him a great fit for our pack, as well as someone we trust to have in our home. All of us are big fans of Adam. You’re lucky you found him.”

Sofia has not known Ollie that long. but he is very comfortable with her. She listens to his over anxious human (me) and she is attentive, conscientious. calm, and observant to his need for structure. . Its such a relief to have my boy in tbe hands of someone who respects his terrier nature and little big dog attitude. She will be a great doctor!
I have a large breed dog, and I really appreciate how Olga consistently gets Dudley out for at least a 1.5 mile walk (60 min) during each of her visits. It helps with his energy and anxiety to get solid walks in. We also have to pup proof the gate since he throws his body against it to get out. Olga understands this and has had to problem solve on the fly. We will continue to work with Olga as the summer approaches.

I was in need of a last minute dog walker and Angela truly saved the day. She was responsive, arrived on time, and was kind and communicative through out the process. She also sent photos which I appreciated. I appreciated her flexibility and reliability and would hire her again!

Katie is wonderful! She is so sweet, patient and gentle with our senior border collie. I can tell that he is loving his walks with her when I'm not home. She follows instructions very diligently and even picks up my mail off the floor! (without my request, very considerate!) I highly recommend Katie, she will treat your baby like her own.
