“Absolutely awesome job watching Linguini! Pictures and updates were fantastic, I could tell he was having a good time and he was well taken care of! He currently has allergies and she made sure he got his special food and allergy meds! Will definitely use for next time!”
“Will 100% use Barsha again! She took great loving care of our three year old spazzy English cocker spaniel. Loved getting daily picture updates - at least twice a day. Easy communication. Great to know our pup was in great hands.”
“Natalie was amazing. She took such great care of my dog and kept me updated with pictures and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear that my dog was happy, comfortable, and well cared for the entire time. I really appreciate how reliable, kind, and attentive she was. I would definitely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy to care for their pet. Thank you so much! 🐾🩵”
“Stefanile is a great sitter. She was incredibly accommodating and patient in dealing with my dog—a rather shy, introverted, and somewhat challenging dog. Given her deep understanding of canine personalities and traits, as well as her extensive experience as a sitter, I was able to entrust Chaco to her care with peace of mind. She sent updates and photos, making communication very easy. Thank you!”
“Kamila was amazing with my two dogs! She was very responsive, sent regular updates and photos, and made sure to follow all of their care instructions including my dog’s strict prescription diet. Both pups were happy, well cared for, and clearly felt comfortable and loved during her stay. I felt totally at ease knowing they were in such great hands. Highly recommend Kamila to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive sitter! 🐾💛”
“Amazing boarding our 2 dogs. They are treated so well in the care of Virginia, Max and their 2 sweet daughters. We were able to think less of the dogs while vacationing and that is very hard for us to do usually. We know the dogs are getting great attention and care while away and it warms our heart. Thank you so much! We will certainly entrust the dogs in their care again.”
“Jess was such a caring and attentive dogsitter for Bailey. She has such a calm and warm energy, which was perfect for our senior dog. She sent us photos and videos every day, and kept us updated on her eating. Our dog likes to pace a lot, so Jess spent a lot of time with her in the dog park. We were really nervous about leaving Bailey because we never board her anywhere. Jess immediately put our minds at ease when we met her, and within the first 24 hours we were already receiving cute videos and pics of Bailey. Jess is super responsive, we could always count on her to respond back quickly. Thanks to Jess, we took our first family vacation in 10 years -- and left Bailey in the best hands. I'd highly recommend Jess for dog sitting in the East Bay!”
“Casey is the best! Casey accepted our request to watch Jojo last minute which we really appreciated. He sent us the best updates with lots of photos of our girl. She’s been snoozing all day since we brought her home! Definitely will book with Casey again!”
“This was a great experience!! This was the first time our dog stayed with someone we didn't know and Ruth made the process so easy. We felt so relaxed knowing our dog was not only well taken care of but loved! Ruth sent constant updates and photos to keep us informed. We would definitely return and highly recommend Ruth!!”
“I highly recommend Niraj! Our bulldog Wally has a lot of anxiety and is a often tough to watch because of his energy. Niraj was so great with him and made us feel at ease while we were away traveling. He provided daily updates and had a great calm energy that Wally needed in a sitter. He was also very responsive in his communication and flexible. We will definitely be going back to Niraj in the future!”
“We so appreciate Shirley! Betty always has a great time and Shirley gives her all the attention she could want! We have her booked for all our vacations this summer- Thanks Shirley!”
“Sofiia and her husband were absolutely amazing with our dog! They took her in last minute and were so caring and attentive! Will definitely be using again! Our dog came back happy and rested.”
“Liam and Nadia have been great! Our dog had a wonderful stay and we received pictures and updates throughout our vacation. Liam and Nadia were also very accommodating when our vacation initially fell through at the last minute. They cancelled our appointment without a fee and graciously booked us again on a later date.”
“Bella had another wonderful stay with Sally! We loved getting photo and video updates. Also, loved the fact that Sally was readily available for the last minute stay. I contacted Sally and our Bella was there with less than two hours notice. Thanks again, Sally!”
“Our pup had a great overnight trip at Yena’s home. She loved getting to play with the other dogs. Yena is so good with them all! She sent lots of pictures and videos, so it was easy to tell our dog was in great hands! Will definitely book again”
“I am so grateful to have found Allison in such short notice! She was amazing in getting back to me and literally providing the best service ever! She literally went above and beyond for us in our time of need and I am so grateful for that! She made sure our babies were well taken care of while we were going through labor with our second baby! She was on call and ready to go when we needed her! I will always trust her with my doggies! Thank you again for being amazing and helping out when we really needed it!”

“Brooke was great! Very easy to coordinate with and kept us in the loop for everything. Our dog seemed happy and calm when we returned as well. We will definitely be using her again in the future!”
“Kathleen did a great job taking care of my two cats. Both cats were happy, fed, watered, and played with. Kathleen communicated very well and sent great pictures from her drop in visits. I would recommend Kathleen and plan to use her in the future”
“My kitties usually take a few days to interact with any sitter, and they warmed up to her right away. All was clean, and kitties weren’t stressed when we returned. Would highly recommend!”
“Stefanie was the best choice for our little Sesame. He’s a very people-focused kitten, so we were a little anxious leaving him with someone else, but we immediately knew he would be in good hands. Stefanie made sure she was aware of all his habits, feeding preferences, etc. and sent us photos throughout his stay. She really put our minds at ease and we couldn’t recommend her more.”
“Samantha took such great care of our two kitties while we were gone for 4ish days on vacation! Between the check-in updates and the multiple photos, we didn't have to worry one bit about how they were doing. Even our super shy boy, Jynx, who some people think is only a myth due to never seeing him for years, came out on Samantha's first visit and made an appearance each time. The next time we need a sitter again, Samantha will be our first choice.”
About: I have been around cats my entire life and grew up caring for multiple family cats. My family currently has several cats, so I am very familiar with feeding schedules, fresh water, litter box cleaning, playtime, and recognizing when a cat needs space or extra attention. I understand that every cat has a unique personality and I am committed to providing patient, loving, and reliable care while owners are away. I will treat your cat as if they were my own and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for.
“Daria was a fantastic pet sitter for our cat - very attentive and caring. She came by for a meet and greet first, which we really appreciated, and kept us updated with professional-quality, super cute photos and videos. Would absolutely book with her again.”
“Laurie was great with our cat Indy. Indy is older [14 years old] and needs an inhaler. Laurie was patient with her and sent updates every visit. Indy is typically very shy with new people but by the second day was letting Laurie give her pets! I'm very grateful and will definitely be reaching out to Laurie next time we go out of town.”
“Jessica was amazing with my cat, Rambo! I had to be away for medical reasons, and she truly went above and beyond to take care of my grumpy old man 😅. Rambo isn’t exactly the playful type, but Jessica stayed positive, patient, and kept trying every possible way to win him over — and never gave up on him (which is quite the achievement 😂). She was super friendly, communicative, and accommodating, which made me feel completely at ease while I was away. We absolutely loved her! I’d recommend Jessica to anyone looking for a kind, reliable, and genuinely caring sitter. We’re so grateful for her! ❤️🐾”
About: I respect cats independent personality. If they need space I will let them be, if they need attention I will be happy to give them nice head scratch and belly rub if they let me. I go crazy for cat. Cat paws smell so nice!!! If you know what I’m talking about. I carry cat treats with me just incase I encounter stray cats.
“Kamila was amazing! She stepped up when another sitter couldn't house my cat at the last minute and took the best care of him! Definitely will be booking her again for the future! Highly recommend!”
About: Reliable registered veterinary technician with extensive background in pet care and emergency medicine experience. I pride myself in my pet care and treating each animal as my own! Currently work full time at night, but I have free time during the day for walks and/or drop in visits! I have dedicated my life to caring for furry babies in my professional and free time! I’m a clean and neat person, so when I drop in for walks/visits you’ll have happy and clean babies! I’m great with shy babies so if yours needs time to warming up to strangers, I can easily do that as well!
“We have booked Tatiana multiple times to care for our cat while we are away and we can't recommend her highly enough!! In fact, I think our cat is bummed when we come home because she doesn't get to see Tatiana 😆”
“Rachael was punctual, great with communication, and took cute photos of our boys. She seems to have a lot of experience and wasn't intimidated by our younger dog that can be a handful. We look forward to having her come again!”
“Asuka and Brian did a great job of taking care of my two cats. Their communication was great and they sent fun photos of the cats. I appreciate how Asuka and Brian kept the house clean and took the time to give the cats extra playtime and pets.”
About: I have experience caring for cats of various ages and personalities, including senior cats and cats requiring oral medications or additional monitoring. I understand that many cats are most comfortable when their routines remain consistent and their environment stays familiar. Whether I'm providing drop-in visits or overnight care in your home, my focus is on helping your cat feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you're away. Care may include feeding, fresh water, litter box maintenance, medication administration when needed, playtime, companionship, and monitoring overall well-being. As a retired officer, responsibility, trustworthiness, and attention to detail have always been important to me, and I bring those same qualities to every pet I care for. I also hold a Cat & Dog First Aid certification. Some cats enjoy interactive play and social attention, while others prefer a quieter approach and companionship on their own terms. I take the time to learn each cat's personality and preferences so I can provide care tailored to their individual needs. My goal is simple: to provide reliable, attentive care while helping your cat feel comfortable, secure, and relaxed in your absence.
“Agne did such a wonderful job taking care of my 2 kitties. Although she didn’t have the opportunity to see too much of them since they like to remain hidden, she made sure they were well cared for. She also had to do some ant combat. I highly recommend her for your upcoming cat care. I will be referring her to my cat lady friends.”

“Highly recommend Nicole. She was super flexible and accommodating with drop off and pick up. Spartacus would perk right up when he saw her - I could see he was in good hands. Loved the pictures and updates too!”
“Barsha and her husband were great. They really looked after our dog and sent regular updates and pictures. He had a great time running around their yard and playing. I’d definitely use Barsha again and would recommend her to everyone.”
“Stefanie took amazing care of my sweet dog during a bout of IBS. She kept me up to date with lots of check ins and was super flexible when I needed to change dates. I cannot recommend Stefanie enough!”
“We were worried about leaving our new puppy for the first time, but Alisha set up a Zoom so we could meet her the day before and it was immediately obvious that she would take great care of our little guy. Then, when we dropped him off, he practically jumped into her arms and made himself at home in the space she has set up which is perfect for doggy guests. She sent us updates and pics throughout the evening. We are very glad to have Alisha nearby for the future. I especially appreciate her depth of knowledge -- she is a great resource for those of us who have limited experience with raising puppies!”
“Monica went above and beyond to give Angel a wonderful stay. She has a lovely home and she sent me videos to reassure me of Angel's well being. Angel returned home in a relaxed and happy state.”
About: I am a responsible and caring pet lover who enjoys spending time with animals. While I don’t have professional pet-sitting experience, I have helped care for pets of friends and family, including feeding, walking, playing, and providing companionship. I am patient, reliable, and will treat your pets with the same care and attention I would give my own. I am a stay-at-home mom with a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide reliable and attentive care throughout the day. I spend most of my time at home or running local errands, so I can easily fit pet visits, walks, feeding, and playtime into my routine. My partner also has a flexible schedule and is happy to help when needed, allowing us to provide consistent care and attention for your pets. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I will follow your instructions carefully regarding feeding, exercise, medications, and routines to help your pet feel secure and comfortable. I understand that every pet has different needs and personalities, and I will provide patient, loving care while keeping you updated with photos and messages. I treat every pet as if they were my own and strive to create a safe, stress-free experience.
“Namrata, took care of my Kona. Kona is usually with me and very attached and takes a moment to warm up. Namrata kept me updated and sent me pictures. She was also flexible and kind. I will definitely be bringing Kona back.”
“Stacy was a wonderful host and dog sitter! Her friendly and mild manner quickly put shado at ease and she was very comfortable staying in her home. The backyard made potty breaks much easier and also room for extra play. Stacy was communicative and shared updates with pics throughout the stay. I knew Shado was in very caring hands. Highly recommend!”
“Jessica gets dogs! She engaged Elvis so positively and spent time helping to shape his behavior. It is a delightful experience to find someone you can trust your dog with. I was never worried about how Elvis was doing. Thank you Jessica!”
“Great first trial with Jess. Our dog Meeko is a rescue and has abandonment anxiety but she did good for her first daycare trial. Thank you Jess for taking good care of her. We look forward to putting her in your trusting environment for our upcoming weekend trip.”
“I reached out to Mia last minute as our regular sitter fell threw. She quickly responded to my request and was great with our maltipoo pups. They were calm and happy after we picked them up. Thank you, Mia!”
“Thank you for taking good care of Megatron, she sits on our laps alot at home so it’s great to know she’s comfortable at her day care and was able to do the same. Will rebook soon.”
“Best dog care experience I have ever had! Blueberry was handled with the utmost professional care and exceeded my expectations. Vanson is so attentive to my dog's personal needs by ensuring she is given her treats I provided and following any instructions given. He has a wonderful backyard with sweet doggos of his own who are very playful and got along great with my dog. He ensures a wonderful experience for both my dog and myself. Took my dog on walks which I could see in the Rover app and sent pics throughout the day of my dog. Such peace of mind! My dog didn't even want to go home with me after having such a good time. Book with Vanson, you will not regret it!”

“Kylee was fantastic! Showed up on time everyday and my dog always came home tired and happy! She even went above and beyond to make sure Moose got extra care and attention.”
“Rebecca was great! We have no issues and our dog Molly loved her. We will be reaching out to her in the future for our doggy needs! I would definitely recommend Rebecca to friends.”
“Jessica did great. Boli can be a bit temperamental and she knew exactly how to calm him. They had a great walk, and she’ll be coming back to walk him this evening. I’m so glad she is helping us out . I recently had shoulder surgery so I cannot have my eager guy yanking on me. He is usually easy to manage but if he sees squirrels or raccoons, all bets are off!”
About: I’ve spent years caring for others through nannying and customer service roles, so being dependable, attentive, and patient comes naturally to me. I have experience working at a veterinary hospital as a receptionist and have done pet sitting for a few years now. I truly love being around animals and make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I also enjoy staying active with walks, playtime, and giving pets plenty of companionship and affection. I'm currently working part time so my schedule is very flexible at the moment. I'm hoping to mainly focus on building my pet sitting business. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to keep their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I follow all feeding, walking, medication, and care instructions carefully while making sure pets get plenty of attention, playtime, and companionship. I understand that being away from their owners can be stressful for some pets, so I focus on creating a calm, safe, and loving environment while keeping owners updated with messages and photos.
“Olga is very good! Really do like her but communication could have been done better since I gave clear instructions in advance, nothing wrong with this at though!”
About: I dog sit of my friend dog once a while for almost 5 years. She normally stay with me more than 7 days. I’m good at take her out for a walk even during raining day. I love to give them belly rub. I spend most of my weekend at home so I have time to take care pet during the weekend. I like to take pet wherever I go, otherwise I feel bad for leave them at home for a long time. I live in a two story townhouse with 2 bedrooms, offering plenty of space for small dogs to comfortably move around and go up and down the stairs. There’s a community park right outside my home, and I love spending time outdoors. I’m happy to take dogs on long walks and make sure they get plenty of exercise and fresh air, especially if they enjoy being active.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs ever since I was 8. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to walk, feed, and bathe their pets. I am skilled in training puppies and providing gentle care for the elderly :) Can teach your pup how to sit, lay down, wait, stay on their spot, and even how to shake your paws on it! c: I’m currently working part-time on the weekends, so I will have plenty of time to spend with your beloved during the week. I am available for walks, drop-ins, and house sits all day on Mon-Thu; on Fridays I am available from 8AM-3PM; Saturdays and Sundays can be negotiated :) When caring for your pet in your home I will maintain their exact daily routine, memorize home logistics, note the primary veterinarian info, respect any off-limit areas for the pet and myself, clean up if needed, care for the pet’s physical safety, and provide you with consistent photo or text updates as requested :)
“Olivia is a great dog walker! She genuinely cares for the pets and makes sure they're taken care of before she leaves them. My Daisy looked forward to her daily visits and got so excited to see her open the door to greet her. Would definitely reach out to Olivia again for future services. Daisy will be so happy to see her again!”
“Susan has been walking our dogs 1-2x a week for at least 6 months now and we couldn’t be happier. Our dogs love her and Luna and look forward to their walks. Susan is very trustworthy!”
About: PLEASE NOTE: Pug Party Palace has a cat, Roger. He likes dogs, guests must be cordial. Five fun loving pugs who enjoy visitors. All are used to guests, as we are involved in pug rescue.

Visiting male dogs must be neutered and female dogs spayed. We only book for one guest dog at a time , so lots of individualized attention! We do require a meet and greet before accepting any reservation request. We look forward to meeting your pup! I am retiring so I will be home. Able to now do drop in’s and doggy daycare.

“Agne is wonderful! I was able to enjoy my trip without worries knowing that my dog was in such good hands. In every photo, it was clear that my dog was having a great time 💕 best sitter ever!”
About: I'm a retired officer, background-checked through Rover, and have more than 10 years of experience caring for my own dogs as well as friends', family members', and clients' pets. Throughout my career and personal life, responsibility, trustworthiness, and attention to detail have always been important to me, and I bring those same qualities to every pet I care for. In 2016, I adopted Barney the Shih Tzu, followed by Jack in 2019. Both were estimated to be about four years old at the time. In 2025, Jack passed away from bone cancer, giving me firsthand experience caring for a senior dog with significant medical needs. In 2022, I rescued Penny, the white pup in my profile photo. Certifications & Experience • Cat & Dog First Aid (American Red Cross) • Experience administering oral medications • Experience caring for senior pets and pets with special needs • Experience caring for dogs and cats of various ages, sizes, and temperaments, including a large Rottweiler I believe every pet deserves patience, kindness, consistency, and individualized care. Whether your pet is energetic and playful, senior and slower-paced, or simply happiest sticking to a familiar routine, my goal is to provide dependable care while helping them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine, and I'm home much of the time. This allows me to provide regular companionship, potty breaks, feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and supervision throughout the day. Because I intentionally limit the number of pets I care for at one time, I am able to provide a more personalized level of attention and maintain a calmer environment for the pets in my care. Whether caring for pets in my home or in a client's home, I strive to maintain their normal routine as closely as possible. Consistency helps pets feel comfortable, secure, and relaxed while their owners are away. My schedule is generally flexible, allowing me to accommodate a variety of care needs, including daycare, overnight care, drop-in visits, and pet sitting in a client's home. Pick-up and drop-off service may be available depending on distance and scheduling. My dogs are part of the family and spend much of their time relaxing near us, on the furniture, or curled up on a lap. Visiting pets are treated with the same level of care, attention, and companionship while in my home. Dogs are welcome on furniture unless owners request otherwise. I intentionally limit the number of guest dogs I accept at one time to help create a calm, safe, and low-stress environment. This allows me to provide close supervision and a more personalized experience than many high-volume pet care settings. If you prefer your dog to be crated for sleeping, feeding, or when unattended, I'm happy to accommodate as long as a crate is provided. Visiting dogs should be reasonably housebroken, with exceptions considered on a case-by-case basis for puppies and special circumstances. Meet-and-greets are strongly preferred whenever possible before services begin. They allow me to learn about your pet's personality, needs, and comfort level while helping determine whether my home and care style are a good fit. When caring for pets in a client's home, I respect both the pet's routine and the owner's home, providing dependable care, companionship, exercise, and attentive supervision. I believe every pet deserves patience, kindness, consistency, and respect. My goal is to provide a safe, comfortable environment where pets can feel relaxed, secure, and well cared for while their owners are away.
“My German Shepard absolutely loves Katja. Katja is just amazing with him. He waits patiently at the door for her to show up to take him on walks every single time. It’s super adorable! Katja is so kind, fun and responsible. We love her and feel so lucky to have found her.”

“Joseph and Marikris came through on a last-minute reservation and provided exceptional levels of care for my special needs dog. My dog Daisy had been recently diagnosed with IVDD and I was prepared to cancel my trip, but Marikris assured me of her professional veterinary background and familiarity with the condition, and I felt confident trusting J&M with her care. Daisy looked so happy in all the photos they shared, and I feel truly blessed to have found such kind and attentive neighbors to care for my girl. Thank you so much Joseph & Marikris, you guys are amazing and I look forward to working together again 🙌”
“Sabrina was Great! Update with pictures of my pup playing and seemed to be his puppy energetic playful self which put our mind to ease and that Paxton her pup matched Rufus energy so I knew he was having a ball with endless playing. Very flexible with time and also requested a meet and greet which was great and made it an easier transition to me dropping him off a couple day later.”
About: I started in pet care at the age of 12, with a pet sitting business. From there I worked at vet hospitals in the kennels and patient rooms, Doggie Day Care, Grooming shops and pet retail. I've trained dogs, and trained my own in Rally, Obedience, Nosework, Agility and dock diving. I also created and ran the employee education department at Pet Food Express for 8 years (before they sold!). Pet care was my life until I was 35. I've since had a career change and haven't been involved with pets at all and I miss it! So while I'm too "on the go" these days to have my own, I figured I could get my fix with other people's pets! I can give meds, groom, support your training goals and crate train. Plus I own my own business so your pup can come with me to work! I own my own business so Monday through Friday, your pup will come to work with me. Shy pups can stay in my office with me, friendly pups can come into the warehouse or greet customers. Weekends will be for play! I have a large, fenced yard. I typically prefer to crate train but it would depend on the dog! Dogs that are not potty trained will need a crate but I'm happy to reinforce potty training! My environment is very secure and I can use a variety of walking tools.
“Caio was great! Our dog is part of our family and we were sad to leave him, but Caio reassured us and made sure he was well taken care of! Caio made time during the week (before dropping off our dog) to meet him and his family, and get to know the environment. Our dog was initially scared of stairs, but Caio was very patient and taught him how to climb up and down the stairs. He constantly sent us pictures of our dog and provided us updates. Great experience!”
“Provided great care and updates. Even with all of Hudson nuances of not wanting to walk unless it’s with minimum of two people, Nikki and her husband was able to care for Hudson while we were away visiting family in France for 3 weeks. Thanks again.”
