“Our pup Luca has stayed with Tillana various times, and he always has an incredible time! From pool adventures to active park days and chill house days, Tillana is always great and giving pups a lot of love and care! We highly recommend :)”
“Peanut had his trial day with Shannon today and everything went great. She took wonderful care of him, kept us updated with lots of photos, and made us feel very comfortable the whole time. We could see that he was happy and well cared for. We will definitely book with her again in the future”
“Katie and Jason are super star dog sitters! My senior dog, Abby, was very comfortable with them. I loved getting all the updates. Katie was really responsive on text and kept to Abby’s schedule and routines. I am so thankful we found them!”
“I needed to find care for my cat on short notice and Ivan was really responsive and made my first time boarding my cat very easy! He sent lots of pictures and updates and he made my very shy cat open up and get comfortable very quickly!”
“Svetlana was great! Our dog was loved and cared for, and I would not hesitate to leave her again in such good hands. I appreciated the daily updates and pictures of walks, play, and lounging at home. Svetlana was super responsive to all of my questions and was such a nice person to interact with. The overall experience was fantastic.”
“Pouneh was absolutely wonderful with our dog! He was so excited to see her and was treated so well the whole weekend he stayed with her! I really appreciated the excellent and prompt communication too!”
“Katherine was incredibly attentive to our senior dog and made him feel at home! We are grateful for her many updates and great communication, and we know our dog would love to stay with her again!”
“I’m so glad we chose to leave Phoebe with Joyce and her family. She was attentive and thorough, making sure she understood Phoebe’s needs, and she kept us updated throughout the weekend. I would absolutely book with Joyce again and highly recommend her for your dog-sitting needs.”
About: I’ve owned dogs my entire life (at one point we had 5 at time!) love taking them for long walks, teaching them new tricks like weave (and handstand!), and engaging their minds with agility. My senior dog recently passed and while I am not ready to get a new dog just yet, I miss having a dog so want to occasionally dog sit to help others out with their dogs before getting another dog of my own. I work full time but occasionally work from home. For this reason, Thursday to Sunday or Monday is best for me. I am active and love going on walks, hikes, and runs in and around the beautiful Portola Valley neighborhood. I love to hang on the couch and snuggle in the evenings! Dogs (non shedding) allowed on the bed :) My large backyard is fenced. My husband Dave and I often are asked by friends to help train their dogs because we love to help and are good at it! :)
“Kimmy & Jesse did an amazing job taking care of our high-energy pup while we were on vacation for a week. We got many updates and pictures throughout his stay. We knew our pup would be safe and cared for with them. Highly recommend!”
“Karla has been great taking care of our Marv. He returned home happy and healthy after 3 weeks that we were away. She also very flexible with the pick-up and drop-off schedule. I highly recommend Karla!”
About: As a fellow dog parent, I know just how important it is to find someone who'll love your pup like their own. I've learned so much from raising my sweet Cavapoo over the past 4 years - including navigating separation anxiety and training challenges with help from the awesome folks at Cali K9 and Zoom Room. All these experiences have made me a patient, understanding caregiver who knows every dog is uniquely special. Your furry friend will have a blast joining us for adventures in our local parks and trails, where we keep tails wagging with plenty of fun and positive reinforcement. I've had the joy of caring for many pups with different personalities, and I always make sure each one feels safe, happy, and right at home with us. Let's give your dog the loving attention they deserve! I'm thrilled to share what a typical day would look like for your pup! I've marked my calendar to show the days I'm home and fully available to focus on caring for your dog. Since I work from home on these days, I'm here to give your furry friend lots of attention and care. We follow a fun routine that includes at least three energetic walks daily, plus plenty of playtime with our collection of toys to keep everyone happy and engaged! I do pop out briefly for my gym sessions, but I'll always keep you in the loop about my schedule. Your dog will never feel lonely - they'll be right by my side throughout the day, getting all the love and attention they deserve! I maintain a clean, pet-proofed apartment where your furry friend can relax without any worries. For bedtime, I have a dedicated crate in the study where my dog sleeps, and I have an extra crate available if your pup is crate-trained - though they're also welcome to find their comfy spot anywhere in the apartment! Safety is my top priority, so I take extra precautions like always keeping doors securely locked and making sure the apartment is tidy and free of anything that could be harmful. When we head out for walks in our quiet, safe neighborhood, your pup will always be properly leashed, and I even use special light-up collars for our evening strolls. You can rest easy knowing your dog is in a secure, peaceful environment with someone who takes their safety seriously
“Lucky had a wonderful time staying at Sein’s home! She took great care of her and kept us updated with plenty of photos and videos of Lucky’s daily life, along with detailed summaries of her routine—meals, playtime, and potty breaks. This really put our minds at ease while we were away. Sein was also very responsive and always quick to answer any questions or concerns. Lucky clearly enjoyed her stay, especially spending time with the other dogs and cats. We truly appreciate her care and will definitely bring Lucky back again in the future!”
“Mario is amazing! It was our first time boarding Mocha (our 6 months pup), so needless to say, we were very nervous with how it would go. Mario sent pictures everyday and she looked like she was having so much fun with the other dogs and laying on the beach. By the time we came to pick her up, she looked very happy and acted nothing out of the ordinary. We're definitely going to come back to Mario if and when we need to board her in the future. Thank you!!”
“Galina and Aleksei took great care of Mochi, giving him lots of play time and taking him on frequent long walks. They provided regular updates with lots of photos and videos. We could tell Mochi liked their company a lot and he was actually a bit sad to leave when we picked him up! We're looking forward to the next time we book with them.”
“Michael was fantastic! This was the first time I had left Bojangles for more than an overnight and I had no cause to worry. His communication was constant, and when I picked up Bojangles, it was obvious he had been well cared for. Will definitely be using Michael again.”
“This was Yogi’s first time away from home, and Cynthia made sure he was well cared for. She sent us lots of updates (which we requested) and Yogi looked so happy the whole time. We weren’t sure how he’d do since we only adopted him a few months ago, but he seemed to have such a great time! Would book again!”

“Kristine was so wonderful when we had family in town. She was very flexible on timing and showed up exactly when she said she would. Kristine was so kind and helpful to our pups who had to get fed at dinner time. Would absolutely recommend and can’t wait to book her again!”

“Deborah was super friendly to me and my two cats. She agreed to FaceTime me before I booked so I can see how comfortable I was with her and to see her home. We discussed moving plants so the cats wouldn’t get sick and she was very patient and kind as I gave feeding directions and so on. She was also very patient, as my cats are quite energetic. I recommend Deborah for boarding!”
“Taryn was awesome! We were traveling to Pescadero for the day, with my daughter, son in-law and grandpuppies, but didn't want to leave them in the car while we had lunch and walked the town. Taryn met us at the restaurant and took the dogs to a nearby play area. She was on time, professional, and so caring with the pups. There human mommy was nervous to leave them, but felt comfortable with Taryn. We had a relaxing lunch, and the pooches came back happy and tired! Thanks Taryn for your professionalism, it added so much to our special day.”
About: I’ve been a huge animal lover my whole life and started pet sitting at 15. A few years ago, I actually rescued my cat, Tim, from a neighborhood chicken coop! I think cats are so funny and sweet. I love getting to know their different personalities, making sure they’re fed, and giving them plenty of attention so they stay happy and safe while you’re away
About: Cats are some of my favorite companions because they each have their own little world. I take my time letting them warm up to me and I follow their lead completely. If they want cuddles, I am all in. If they want space, I honor that too. I am consistent with feeding, litter, routines, and I always make their environment feel calm and safe. I am gentle, intuitive, and very aware of energy, so cats usually relax around me pretty fast.
“Our sitter randomly left our pets and Alex stepped in to save the day. He took care of our pets really well even finding our 2 cats stuck in the bedroom. Would book again!”

“John was so kind and attentive with Max everyday during his stay. He was absolutely flexible adapting his apartment for Max big size and all his belongings (litter, scratchers, food containers, carrier, blankets, toys), so Max would have a less stressful stay. John was effectively communicating with us, and always willing to do his best to ensure Max will have a great time and we will know as much as possible about Max’s last updates. We are really thankful with John for taking care of Max, following his food and water routine over the heat wave, for cleaning his eyes and for sending us all the pictures and updates every day, so we will enjoy our short trip knowing Max was safe and happy. Thank you so much John, we’ll see you next time! Blessings from the 3 of us!”
“Anastasiia was very communicative and handled the cat care very well. she even stayed extra long to play with them some days. she also vacuumed the house at the nice, appreciate the small touches! will definitely be rebooking with her and totally recommend to book.”
About: With over 5 years of experience in cat care, I've gained a deep understanding of what makes our feline friends thrive. From proper nutrition and grooming to behavior insights and health monitoring, I've learned that each cat has its own unique needs. Providing a safe, stimulating environment and building trust through patience and affection are key.

“I very much appreciate Ruo’s attentiveness in creating such a comforting environment for my senior pup. Trinity is special needs (being both visually and hearing impaired). She is so calm when I pick her up - all signs of how at ease she is and evidence to the care Ruo provides to ensuring a stressful visit! ♥️”
“Allison & her husband were wonderful for my little dog. She is already passed out as soon as we got home. I booked last minute after seeing a review from someone else. Super convenient & accommodating for my very curious pup!”

They sent many photos so I know that Bilbo was happy and well taken care of. We will definitely bring Bilbo back. Highly recommend Edward and Elisha!”
“Jennifer is very professional and responsive. Our dog really enjoyed staying at her home. They can play inside or out. She even brushed his fur out so he was super soft. I would leave him there again.”
“I've hired Michael as my dog sitter twice now, and both times my dog came back all "pooped" from the long walks and play time, she basically went to bed as soon as we got home haha! He also sent me quite a few pictures and updates during my dog's stay which helped keep me worry-free (I tend to get a bit anxious when hiring a new pet sitter, but he did not disappoint !)”

About: My Pet Care Experience Growing up, I had the joy of sharing my life with a variety of pets, each teaching me something unique about responsibility, empathy, and companionship. Over the years, I’ve cared for hamsters, cats, dogs, fish, bunnies, and turtles, and every one of them left a lasting impact on me. As a child, my hamsters taught me patience and attentiveness through their delicate care needs. Feeding them the right diet and cleaning their habitat were my first lessons in responsibility. With dogs and cats, I learned the importance of building trust and providing unconditional love. They showed me how meaningful the bond between humans and animals can be. Bunnies and turtles required different forms of care, from maintaining specific diets to creating environments that matched their natural habitats. These experiences taught me how to adapt and tailor my care to meet the needs of each pet. Even caring for fish required a level of diligence, as maintaining a clean tank and balanced water conditions was essential for their well-being. Now, as an adult, I deeply appreciate how much these experiences shaped my understanding of what it means to care for animals. Pets aren’t just companions; they’re beings that rely on us for their health, happiness, and safety. This realization drives my dedication to providing the best care possible for my current and future pets. Whether it’s ensuring they receive proper nutrition, regular vet check-ups, or just spending quality time with them, I believe that having pets is both a privilege and a commitment. Caring for animals has not only made me more responsible but has also brought immense joy and fulfillment into my life. Pet care is an important part of my daily and weekly routine, and I always make time to ensure pets are happy and healthy. Currently, as a student on vacation, I have plenty of free time during the holidays to dedicate to their care, including playing with them, grooming, and keeping their spaces clean. During the semester, I usually have classes in the mornings, but my afternoons and evenings are free. This gives me a flexible schedule to provide attention, exercise, and care for the pets. I enjoy creating a balance between my responsibilities and spending quality time with them, as I believe this is key to building a strong bond and keeping them content. I am very responsible when it comes to caring for pets, whether in my home or my client’s home. I always prioritize building trust with the pet, creating a bond that ensures they feel safe and comfortable with me. The place where I live is fenced and quiet, making it a safe environment for pets. However, I understand that pets often feel more comfortable staying in their own home, surrounded by familiar smells and routines. For this reason, I am more than happy to care for them at their place if that’s preferred. Regardless of the location, I make sure to follow their specific routines, provide plenty of playtime and attention, and ensure their needs are met with love and care.
“Tillana was fantastic to work with! She went above and beyond and did much more than we expected. We loved that she was very communicative and sent us lots of doggy photos. She was extremely thoughtful with our pup and we highly recommend her! Thank you Tillana!”

About: Hi! I’m Taryn! I’m an experienced and compassionate pet caregiver with a lifelong love for animals — especially rescues. Over the past 13 years, I’ve owned and cared for three very different dogs (a chihuahua, dachshund mix, and shepherd mix), so I understand that every dog has their own personality, needs, and boundaries. I’m comfortable adjusting care based on your dog — whether that means a short, gentle walk for a senior pup or a long, active outing to burn energy. I also have hands-on experience with dogs who have leash or food aggression, and I always approach care with patience, awareness, and respect for each dog’s comfort level. As of 6/1/2026 I have a Certificate of Completion from the American Red Cross Cat and Dog First Aid (online) In addition, one of my dogs, Shadow, has seizures, so I’m familiar with staying calm in high-stress situations, monitoring for symptoms, and providing attentive, responsive care when it matters most. I understand how important it is to trust someone with a pet who has extra needs. I’ve also helped care for friends’ dogs of all sizes and breeds — from small terriers to larger dogs like pit bulls — and feel confident handling a wide range of temperaments. I’m happy to provide: • Walks tailored to your dog’s energy level • Feeding and routine care • Medication (depending on type) • Baths and brushing • Calm, attentive care for anxious or special needs pets • Plenty of love and companionship Beyond dogs, I have 20+ years of experience with cats. I’ve volunteered with Homeless Cat Network and fostered for Coastside Feral Care. Fun fact: Every animal I’ve cared for or owned has been a rescue — I have a special place in my heart for them and understand the extra patience and care they sometimes need. ________________________________________ 🐾 Why pet parents choose me • Experience with multiple breeds and temperaments • Comfortable with reactive and special needs dogs • Firsthand experience with seizure care • Cat care expert with volunteer/foster background • Calm, patient, and highly attentive
About: I’ve cared for dogs, cats, and exotic animals for families and neighbors for over 8 years. This ranges from home check-ins, trips to the vet, and overnight pet sitting. I have two cats at home and share custody of an English lab with my ex-boyfriend. New graduate in between jobs. Availability for the month of May/June is open. I do my best to accommodate all hours and needs for clients. I understand that a pet's home and environment are crucial. At home, I make sure my cats always have access to their food and water, litter boxes, and places for them to lounge :)
“Esmeralda is wonderful with our golden retriever! She is calm, attentive, and engaging, gets in sync with his personality, and lets him enjoy being outside for an adventure, read the daily doggie news or just hang out listening to music. She is a professional when it comes to her canine care so we are confident when we leave our pup with her. Thank you Esmi!! 😁”
“Deborah is great! She is reliable and flexible. I really appreciate her updates every day. Not only does she let me know she walked the dog, she tells me how far they went and how energetic my dog was. With an elderly dog, it is important to know those things. She fills the water bowl if its low and offered to take my dog to the vet for a nail trim while i was at work! Best of all my dog loves her! I highly recommend Deborah.”
About: I have been around animals my whole life and I naturally connect with them. I grew up taking care of family pets, friends’ pets, and animals I watched while traveling. I understand how different each animal’s personality is, and I love tuning in to what they need, whether it is play, comfort, structure, or quiet time. I am gentle, patient, and very affectionate with animals who like closeness, but also respectful with shy or sensitive pets. People trust me because I treat their pets with real love and intention, the same way I care for my own space and relationships. My schedule is flexible, and pet care blends naturally into my day. I enjoy slow mornings, walks, and spending time outside, so having a pet with me just adds joy to my routine. I am available most days and weekends, and I make sure your pet stays on their normal schedule so they feel secure and loved while you are gone. I am very intentional about how I care for animals. I pay attention to details, follow instructions closely, and make sure your pet feels safe and grounded at all times. I move gently, I stay calm, and I never rush an animal’s process. I treat pets like emotional beings with their own needs and personalities. You can trust that your pet will be cared for with love, patience, and respect, and your home will always be left clean and cared for.

About: I grew up in a multiple pet family; taking care of the cats, ducks and family dog. Over the last couple decades I have rescued animals including my cat 20 years ago.

My care schedule for my animals is structured but flexible, so we can work with many different demands, my cat communicates surprisingly well :) I follow whatever instructions are given before and during visits, care and safety are of the utmost importance. If there is ever a question, I do really love communication so I'm asking and my ears are always perked!

“We have two dogs who can be a bit reactive when walked by leash. My wife and I were instructed by professional dog trainers on how to keep them calm and under control when they see another dog. John picked up the training methods quickly and had both of our guys exhibiting their best behavior. John is a natural, and our dogs adore him. We are extremely pleased with his calmness and attention. Five stars!”
About: I have spent 8 years grooming my dog to be well kept. She is a doodle so shes a bit hard to manage, but I'm able to keep her from matting. I am currently a student at Cal Poly SLO.

“Jason walked my little dog Suzy. He was a fantastic dog walker! He was friendly, showed up on time, and made sure to run Suzy until she was tired, which is exactly what I wanted. He was accommodating to my special requests like when to reward Suzy with treats and how to walk her the way we want. Would have Jason walk Suzy again.”

“Peanut had his trial day with Shannon today and everything went great. She took wonderful care of him, kept us updated with lots of photos, and made us feel very comfortable the whole time. We could see that he was happy and well cared for. We will definitely book with her again in the future”
“Katie and Jason are super star dog sitters! My senior dog, Abby, was very comfortable with them. I loved getting all the updates. Katie was really responsive on text and kept to Abby’s schedule and routines. I am so thankful we found them!”
“Pouneh was absolutely wonderful with our dog! He was so excited to see her and was treated so well the whole weekend he stayed with her! I really appreciated the excellent and prompt communication too!”
“Katherine was incredibly attentive to our senior dog and made him feel at home! We are grateful for her many updates and great communication, and we know our dog would love to stay with her again!”
About: I’ve owned dogs my entire life (at one point we had 5 at time!) love taking them for long walks, teaching them new tricks like weave (and handstand!), and engaging their minds with agility. My senior dog recently passed and while I am not ready to get a new dog just yet, I miss having a dog so want to occasionally dog sit to help others out with their dogs before getting another dog of my own. I work full time but occasionally work from home. For this reason, Thursday to Sunday or Monday is best for me. I am active and love going on walks, hikes, and runs in and around the beautiful Portola Valley neighborhood. I love to hang on the couch and snuggle in the evenings! Dogs (non shedding) allowed on the bed :) My large backyard is fenced. My husband Dave and I often are asked by friends to help train their dogs because we love to help and are good at it! :)
“Kimmy & Jesse did an amazing job taking care of our high-energy pup while we were on vacation for a week. We got many updates and pictures throughout his stay. We knew our pup would be safe and cared for with them. Highly recommend!”
“This was Yogi’s first time away from home, and Cynthia made sure he was well cared for. She sent us lots of updates (which we requested) and Yogi looked so happy the whole time. We weren’t sure how he’d do since we only adopted him a few months ago, but he seemed to have such a great time! Would book again!”
“Sofiya is the best! My boy Titus came home happy, clean, and smarter. Sofiya taught him how to shake hands during his 6 day boarding while we’re on vacation! We will definitely have her watch Titus in the future. She gives us peace of mind and Titus loves her. Titus also came home with 2 new toys and a dozen eggs from Sofiya’s chickens as a bonus. A plus rating and above. Thank you!!”
“Irina was a fantastic dog sitter for our Sophie! She clearly loved her, and we could tell Sophie was happy and well cared for the whole time. Irina sent lots of updates, which gave us great peace of mind. We’d happily book her again and highly recommend her!”
“Qi took amazing care of our dogs, Pebbles and Luna, while we were away. Both of our girls are on the anxious side, so finding someone we trust is incredibly important. Qi was patient, attentive, and made them feel comfortable and cared for. We also appreciated how thoughtfully she manages the dogs in her care. Even though she watches multiple dogs, she carefully groups dogs that get along well and makes sure everyone has a safe, positive experience. Her home is very clean and well-maintained, which gave us additional peace of mind. Qi was also fantastic with communication, sending frequent photos and videos so we could see how Pebbles and Luna were doing. We always felt informed and reassured. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter!”
“This was my first experience with Guillermo and Siobhan and everything went smoothly. We had done a meet and great several months ago and my puppy seemed comfortable with Guillermo and their dog. We mutually reconfirmed the details and everything went smoothly. They sent an update and a photo- much appreciated.”

“Meerim was incredibly kind and responsive with our aging dog, Rupert. He is older and losing his eye sight and she was very understanding and caring with him. We would definitely trust Rupert with her again.”
“Diane was amazingly kind and patient while taking care of my large and anxious dog. Yeti was spoiled with lots of outdoor time and looked very relaxed/happy in his pictures. Diane was also very understanding when we had to do a late pickup the night before she had to leave town. Thanks again Diane for taking such great care of Yeti!”
“once again, a fabulous stay for my pup Jessie. I am completely at ease about her well-being when she is with Jennifer. My only concern is that Jessie won't want to come home with me, as life is so good with Jennifer and her son.”
