About: I am a biochemistry student with a strong passion for animal care and veterinary medicine. I currently work at a veterinary clinic as an assistant and also volunteer at the East Bay SPCA surgical support and medicine role, where I assist with caring for animals and supporting veterinary staff. I also have experience working at a doggy daycare, where I supervised groups of dogs, ensured their safety, and helped with feeding and daily care. In addition, I have taken care of my own pets, neighbors dogs, friends, and family for many years. I am comfortable with dogs of all sizes and temperaments and always prioritize their safety, comfort, and happiness. I love spending time with animals and making sure they feel cared for while their owners are away. I am currently a college student with a flexible schedule and love spending my free time caring for animals. I also have two dogs of my own and understand the importance of routine, exercise, and attention for pets. I am typically available Thursdays, Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays, and may have additional availability depending on the week. I’m happy to work with pet owners to find times that best fit their pet’s routine and needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priority. I currently work at a veterinary clinic and also volunteer at the East Bay SPCA spay/neuter clinic, where I help care for animals and assist veterinary staff. Through this experience, I have learned how to closely monitor pets, follow care instructions, and recognize when animals may need extra attention. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for.

Nilab is so great! She has watched my cats twice now and is so good at getting them comfortable and out of their shell. They can be nervous with new people especially when I am gone but Novak is so kind and patient and it’s been great to see my pets warm up to her. She’s is very communicative and sends great updates as well. I can have so much peace of mind knowing Nilab is taking really good care of my cats. Thank you!

About: As a pet sitter, my experience revolves around maintaining a comfortable, safe, and enjoyable environment for pets while their owners are away. The day typically begins with feeding according to the pet's dietary schedule, ensuring that water bowls are always filled with fresh water. Regular walks and playtime are essential to keep the pets physically active and mentally engaged. Beyond basic care, I also take time to bond with the pets, offering companionship, affection, and positive reinforcement to ease any anxiety they might feel from their owner's absence. My goal is not only just to take care for the pet, but also to make sure they feel loved and secure until their family returns. Both me and my wife are self-employed and working from home full time. We have plenty of time to walk with the dogs at least two times a day, and play with them throughout the day. I don't have my own pets in the home right now. I have a fenced yard that can prevent pets run away. I always check my surrounding before I opened the door make sure no pets can run out. I always keep the leash on while I am walking the dog.

About: Looking for more than just a walk around the block? I offer group adventure hikes in the stunning regional parks of the Bay Area, giving your dog the exercise, socialization, and mental enrichment they crave. Dogs are happiest when they have a purpose—whether it's running through open trails, playing with a well-matched pack, or simply exploring new scents. My group hikes provide a structured but fun environment where dogs can channel their energy in a positive way, helping to prevent unwanted behaviors at home. Whether your pup needs to burn off extra energy, gain confidence around other dogs, or just enjoy a safe and stimulating adventure, my hikes are designed to meet your dog’s natural instincts. In addition to hiking, I also offer boarding in a home environment—a stress-free alternative to traditional kennels. Whether for a weekend or longer stays, your dog will be treated like family, with plenty of exercise, structured play, and rest. Why Choose Me? ✔️ Group Hikes in Beautiful Regional Parks – Let your dog enjoy nature the way they were meant to. ✔️ Safe & Structured Pack Play – Socialization in a controlled, positive setting. ✔️ Mental & Physical Stimulation – A tired dog is a happy, well-behaved dog. ✔️ Personalized Care – I work with each dog’s personality and needs to ensure a great experience. ✔️ Boarding with Daily Exercise – Your dog stays in a home, not a kennel, with plenty of adventure and companionship. If you’re looking for a way to give your dog the best day, every day, let’s chat! I’d love to welcome your pup into my pack. Life gets busy, but your dog’s needs don’t stop. That’s where I come in! Whether you have long work hours, a packed schedule, or just want to give your pup more exercise and socialization, I provide flexible and reliable pet care that fits seamlessly into your routine. With my structured group hikes, your dog gets the physical and mental stimulation they need during the day—so when you come home, they’re happy, relaxed, and ready to cuddle. Need overnight care? My boarding service ensures your pup gets personalized attention, daily exercise, and the comfort of a home environment.

Let’s find a routine that works for you and your pup! When your dog is in my care—whether on an adventure hike or staying overnight—they are treated like family. Their safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. For group hikes, I ensure a structured, supervised, and safe pack environment where dogs can socialize and explore while following proper leash and trail etiquette. I carefully assess each dog’s temperament and energy level to create well-matched groups, ensuring a positive and stress-free experience. For boarding, your pup stays in a home environment, not a kennel. They’ll enjoy daily exercise, social interaction, and a cozy, relaxed atmosphere—just like they would at home. I maintain a secure space, with constant supervision, and provide a personalized routine to match their needs. Whether it’s extra playtime, a quiet nap space, or a special feeding schedule, I make sure each dog feels safe, comfortable, and loved. With a focus on trust, structure, and fun, I provide an environment where dogs can thrive—giving you peace of mind knowing your pup is in the best hands.

About: I take care of more than just dogs and cats. Any guinea pigs, rabbits and birds are welcome too! There is a second story to the house for smaller animals like the above and for cats. Downstairs and the backyard is for boarding dogs. I can care for all sizes of dogs! Fulfilling pet care services for pet parents is currently my full-time job! I offer: dog walks; drop in services for feeding & other petcare needs; sitting in your home; boarding in my home upon scheduling. I have 2 locations to board dogs, both locations are within a mile of one another. I try to make it as homely for the pet as possible. If they would like to follow me around the house that is acceptable if they are potty trained. I garden in the backyard and they are more than welcome to join me outside! Many potty breaks for the puppers! Cats will stay on the second floor along with any small (non-K9) pets.

Time and again Dani has proven to be that perfect combination of trustworthy professional and sweet animal lover. This was our longest trip leaving our two cats alone and Dani never lapsed in her timeliness and detailed written and photographic updates. We had some unexpected events at the house (heavy packages, ants!) that Dani handled with grace. Expectations were always really clear and she let us know the one day she was running a bit late. We came home to two relaxed, healthy, happy cats. What a weight off of our mind! Can only recommend Dani, best sitter we've had within and outside of Rover.

Mila is very sweet, punctual, and flexible to work with. My cats went straight to her during our meet-and-greet, which I had never seen them do with a stranger before. She is a great communicator and took tons of pictures and videos during her visits. My older cat has a history of UTIs, and my other cat occasionally has loose stools, so Mila carefully reported the quality of their pee and poop in the litter box each time. When the weather was warm, she made sure the temperature in the house was comfortable. She has great attention to detail, and my cats love her! Highly recommended!

Excellent, highly recommended. We have just returned home and found our cats to be well taken care of by Myat. She was very detailed, thorough in her communication and followed all the instructions during her drop in visits. We have 3 cats and one of them has anxiety issues and leading to accidents. No issues indicating they bonded well with Myat. Definitely asking for her services next time.
