“A wonderful experience boarding my dog here! Qi took great care of my pup, kept me updated, and made sure my dog felt comfortable and happy throughout the stay. Highly recommend!!”
“We love Sofiya! Brave is a very happy doggy while in her care. She sends us the sweetest check in messages that we love to read when away. She is a true dog lover and will spoil your pups!”
“I can see from the photos that Raley is comfortable at Joyce’s house. Raley gets the cuddles and care with Joyce that she gets at home with us. Knowing that Raley is well taken care of makes our vacations easier!”
“Extremely happy with our booking with Anusha. Great communication with video and text updates throughout the days Buddy stayed. Felt very comfortable leaving him in Anusha’s care. I would recommend Anusha to anyone and would use her again🤓”
“I was lucky to find Michelle and Michael. My dog is young golden retriever with high energy. Michelle and Michael gave my dog plenty of cuddles and attention. They gave my dog long walk and played fetch with him. Michelle sent me updates frequently that helped relieve my separation anxiety. I couldn't be happier to have my dog stay with Michelle and Michael, who are really nice and caring people.”
“We can always trust Mita and her family to take good care of Bailey while are gone. Bailey and Simba get along well. We get photos and videos and updates throughout her stay. We feel very lucky to have found Mita on Rover!”
“We had a sitter for our pup for 3 yrs and had to find him a new sitter since we moved. After looking at several sitter we ate really happy and blessed to find Christy and her family. They are very loving and caring and took a very good care of our pup. They also shared an update with a picture which gave us a peace of mind that our puppy is well taken care of. Thank you Christy and family!”
“Our dogs were so happy with Kimberly’s care, they didn’t even get overly excited when they saw us when we picked them up. They did some zoomies at home and then fell asleep since they had so much fun at Kimberly’s place. We will definitely ask for her help again when we can’t take our furry kids with us.”
“Hi, I can tell when my dog was not stressed upon return from a boarding experience and our dog, was happy when no the caring hands of Steve and co. I got regular updates and My dog went on long walks and hikes. He had the company of other dogs and behaved in Steve’s presence- him being a trainer himself. Both the parties felt that it was a good fit - before boarding. Will not hesitate to recommend Steve with a glowing 5-stars!”
“Juliana took great care if my elderly & almost blind chihuahua. My fur baby came home alert & happy but also misses Juliana’s backyard. Will definitely stay with Juliana again!”
“Charlie appeared happy to be taking care off by Jennifer and her family. We received periodic updates and photos. Jennifer was very responsive and flexible to adapt to Charlie's needs.”
“Lana was very patient with my high energy dog. He settled in to the routine of her house and had a good time. I loved all the update pictures and videos. Lana has a clam energy that is a great asset for caring for all kinds of dog personalities.”
“Megha and her husband were awesome. Absolutely no complaints. Very professional and communicative. They have a beautiful backyard for your dog to roam. They gave my senior dog lots of attention and sent many updates with pictures as soon as I left my dog there. I found that extremely comforting because I’ve never left my dog with strangers before. They also let my dog roam around so I never worried that he would be stuck in a crate somewhere. I know my little guy was very comfortable and I would definitely bring Rascal back!”
“Amelia is wonderful! We were so happy to be able to be away and know that she's taking good care of our pup. The fact that our anxious little dog loves her says it all.”
“My experience with Leah was great. She was very kind and accommodating with me & my 12yr old Jack Russell. My dog needed not just boarding but to take his meds. She also kept me at ease by sending me some pics. I am very grateful.”
“Brian and his family were wonderful with our dog. He’s very communicative and responsive to our needs (both human and canine). Our dog was so happy when we picked him up that we could tell he was well cared for.”
“I’m so grateful and blessed because Farbod and his wife took my pup, and treated her as their own. They were very responsible, updating me here and there about Poochie, which I totally appreciate, and helps when you are away from your pup. They are very responsive also. For sure, without a doubt, I will be a repeat client. 💕 Thank you Farbod and wife, can’t thank you guys enough!!”
About: Experienced dog owner and sitter. Studied dog psychology to become a good dog parent. Had two female spaniels who passed earlier this year. We used to compete in dog frisbee and hunt. Also have experience working in a grooming salon, as well as walking and boarding various size dogs - from labs and German shepherds to Jack Russel terriers and mini Aussies. Additionally at no cost I can provide basic behavioural training and teach new tricks - I love to communicate with dogs of any breed and move in one rhythm with them. And I really feel their needs and able to connect with dogs of all ages. I can board puppies and older dogs, take them for a walk someplace new and play ball or frisbee. But safety and well-being is my main focus and if your dog doesn't want too much activity, I can provide a more mellow experience, too. Available on weekdays and weekends but please make appointments at least 2 days in advance. I would love to meet your furry friend! I'm working remotely from home part-time, so have lots of time to spend with doggies. I'm available both weekends and weekdays and rarely leave home for more than a couple hours, so your dog won't be alone for too long. I have a fenced backyard and deck, and two mellow spaniels to keep your doggo company. I also have a crate where your pet can rest if needed.
“We couldn’t be happier with the care Xeno received! Boris and Olga sent great updates and photos that kept us at ease. Xeno came back super happy and clearly well-rested—we’ll definitely be booking with them again.”

“I highly recommend Kendra, as she was very communicative, kind, and reliable. Our cat, Jinx, fell in love with her from the first moment, and he was in good hands for the entire ten days we were away. We truly appreciated the peace of mind she gave us and would love to have her pet sit for us again in the future. Thank you, Kendra, for an amazing job!”
About: Hi! I truly believe pets are family, and when you’re away, they deserve to feel safe, loved, and cared for just like they do with you. What you can expect: 💛 Genuine Care & Warmth I don’t just take care of pets — I spend time with them, talk to them, and make sure they feel calm, happy, and never lonely. 🏡 Respect for Your Home Your home will be treated with care and respect, just like I would treat my own. Clean, tidy, and exactly the way you left it. 📸 Stay Connected I’ll send you daily photos and updates so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and doing great. 🐕 Attentive Daily Routine Regular walks, feeding, playtime, and lots of affection — always tailored to your pet’s привычки and personality. 🤝 Meet & Greet Available We can meet beforehand so your pet feels comfortable, and you feel completely confident leaving them with me. 💊 Extra Care if Needed I can carefully and safely give medications if your pet needs them. 🎁 A Special Gift As a thank you, I’ll create a beautiful portrait of your pet — something you can keep as a memory. 🌱 A Personal Note I’m originally from Ukraine and currently building a new life here. Taking care of animals is something I truly enjoy and take seriously. 💬 Communication English isn’t my first language, so I really appreciate clear written instructions — it helps me take the best possible care of your pet. To enhance your chances of securing my services, please notify me of your needs in advance. This will allow me to better accommodate your requests and ensure a smoother experience for both of us. I'm more than happy to feed, play with, and take your little one out for a stroll upon your request. 😊 Any additional requests can be discussed separately to ensure they're tailored to your specific needs.
“Heather was amazing. She was able to care for our difficult older cat like a pro. Our cat required two medications twice a day, including an injection, and our cat doesn't do well with stranger but she did great with Heather. Heather let us know everytime when she completed the shot which really put our minds at ease. We ended up book her again for two more trips these coming months.”
“It's so nice to be able to totally trust Luna with my two Maine Coon cats. Her level of care along with her professionalism is exceptional. While I'm on vacation I get her photo/video updates. My cats always seem relaxed with her. When I get home from vacation I can see it around my house. The clean floor around their food dishes. The well kept litter box area. Well fed and happy cats. She's always sure to contact me with any updates. I would heartily recommend her to any potential clients. I'm happy to have her in my cat's lives.”
“Nora is a GIFT! About a year ago my now 14 year-old cat Riley abruptly lost a significant amount of weight and bloodwork showed some kind of significant liver event though nothing was evident in an XRAY or ultrasound. He was prescribed two ongoing medications to support his liver & reduce inflammation; a small pill that needs to absorb during a fast (no food for 2 hours before and 1 hour after) and a liquid medication that needs to be given with food. In addition to the with/without food medications complexity, successfully pilling a cat every day requires a deft hand—pretty straightforward for someone who’s good at it, increasingly difficult each day for anyone who isn’t. Add to the equation both Riley and his brother Ash are initially shy with strangers. All things considered to me the situation seemed like a complicated ask for a pet sitter, so over the past year I hadn’t gone away on any trips longer than 2-3 days. In the face of a terminal illness diagnosis in my direct family I came to terms with having to hope for the best using a pet sitter for an 8 day family vacation though I was very concerned about how Riley would be affected by the extended change in routine. Enter Nora; highly intelligent, highly *attuned* (to the pets & the people), instantly trustworthy, and very gracious, a rare combination of total professionalism & grounded compassion. Though Nora was only here for about an hour each day her presence *visibly improved* Riley’s health. I didn’t know it was possible to come home from being away for 8 days to find Riley noticeably fluffier and more energetic than when I left, but that’s the magic that unfolded under Nora’s care. She also sent me pictures of Riley and Ash every day and let me know how they were each doing, sharing her sophisticated curiosity & creativity getting Riley to eat more and Ash to gradually come out of his shyness with clear warmth towards both of them. It’s extremely clear Nora *truly cares* and is keenly observant and exceptionally competent, a combination that made it possible for me to relax so much more on my trip. I’m very grateful to have found her. Thank YOU so much Nora. TBC 💗🐈🐈⬛🧘♀️”
About: Hi !! I started house-sitting for my family members pets since high school. Since then, I have been recommended by many close friends of my family and I'm excited to branch out further into the Bay Area ! I have cared for pets of all ages, including several senior animals that I still regularly work with. Along with dogs and cats, I also have some experience with reptile care ! A lot of the clients I've worked with know me for my calm disposition when it comes to animals, so even the most anxious pets will feel safe in my care !! I am currently working at home working as a self-employed artist, so I should be available to care for your pets most days of the week! For walks and drop-ins I am available from 9am-4pm during the weekdays, and full time during weekends! Pets are a part of the family just as much as everyone else, so I like to treat them with the same courtesy! Since I mostly work on my laptop, I usually stick to staying home when I petsit, so your pets will have my company as much as possible! If your pet is more on the active side I will do my absolute best to fulfill their needs--I may not the most active person but I am no stranger to long walks and park playdates :) !
About: I've taken care of dogs since I was 10 years old, and I'm a recent cat mom of a little under a year. I have experience with senior dogs and cats, too. I'm currently working full-time at a school, but I'm available every weekday after 4 pm and all day on the weekends to stay the night :) I will respect your space and leave it as I found it. Communication is my top priority, so if there's an issue, I'll communicate my concern as soon as it presents itself.
“I was leaving town for a week and needed a cat-sitter for my kinda shy cat. My cat had previously gone 3 days without touching her food while I was away, so I was concerned about leaving for such an extended period for the first time. Lara is totally cool and professional, and was flexible around the dates to come over and the distance. She was able to get my cat to come out of hiding and played with her (sending me a funny photo in the process) -- I'm sure this helped with my cat's appetite! I could totally relax while I was away from home for the first time as a pet owner.”
About: Hi, I'm Jenn! Having six years of experience as a vet tech, six years of experience caring for pets professionally, and caring for my personal furry companions animals for over 6o years, I bring an exceptional blend of experience, care, and responsibility to my pet care. I have a huge heart for cats and dogs and love to see them happy in their environment. My sensitive nature allows me to be highly attuned to animals and their needs. Others have often commented on my ability to anticipate the needs of people and animals before they are aware of them. I believe in the health and wellbeing of all living things. When your animal is under my care, you can be assured they are receiving the nurturing and care they deserve. I am available for walking, visits, boarding, and more. Please inquire for your particular needs and desires for your pet in your absence. I would be happy to keep your pet loved and safe while you are away. Injections, special needs, training/rehabilitation I am in a very open and expansive time currently in life. I am widely available round the clock for your pets needs. I am available daytime, evenings, and weekends. I do not have a fenced yard on the property I live on in the country, so when boarding with me, dogs will be on leash when outdoors. They will enjoy the many walks they will have around here. When at your home, I take care of your fur baby and belongs with the utmost respect and safety.
About: I’ve had over 20 years experience rescuing, raising and caring for kitties! I adore cats and have been told I am a cat whisperer. I also worked briefly (right before the pandemic hit) at a veterinary clinic and have 10 years experience as a cat TLC volunteer at the Santa Cruz animal shelter.
About: I’ve been caring for cats since I was 10, and over the years I’ve learned that every kitty has their own unique personality and needs. Some love constant playtime, others just want quiet companionship, and I’m comfortable adjusting to whatever makes them happiest. Whether it’s keeping up with feeding routines, refreshing water, giving meds, or just making sure they get plenty of love and attention, I’ll treat your cat like they’re my own. I know how important it is for them to feel safe and comfortable while you’re away, and I’ll make sure you feel at ease too with updates and photos.
“Cheryl was fantastic taking care of our beloved cat, Edwin, and our home. She came to meet Edwin in advance and get a rundown. She was excellent at communicating and giving updates on how things were going. She really gave me peace of mind, knowing that everything was taken care. Thank you Cheryl!”
“Shylynn was a great cat sitter. The cat was fed and given fresh water daily. The litter box and area around it was clean when I arrived home. She sent so many great pictures of her playing with and petting my cat. She also spent a long time giving the cat attention- about 40 minutes each day. I would definitely book Shylynn again.”
“Chelsea does great with my puppy Ringo! She was able to come last minute ( my daughter called me worried about him when she left for work, she said he was barking and had some separation anxiety! ) By the time I got home, he was a happier puppy after Chelsea’s visit!”

About: I’ve had dogs in my life for 30 years. I’ve been dog sitting for friends and family for over 20 years. My own dogs have graduated top of their class in puppy training school. I currently work from home, so I can arrange my schedule to make sure dogs in my care get all the love, affection, and attention they need and deserve. I have a small fenced in yard, good for small and medium dogs. My dog is friendly and even shares some toys. I can crate your dog if preferred. I am also within walking distance to a dog park, and an easy drive to dog beaches
“Bianca was so great with Olive! Her communication and care for her was fantastic. She understood olives quirks and put our tips and commands to work. I had a last minute meeting come up and she extended the sit without issue. So happy to have found and met Bianca!”
“I am over the moon about Daisy's full-day stay with Shannon and her family! I knew that Daisy had a great day because she fell fast asleep on the way home, and while she was happy to see me at pick-up, I could also tell she really liked her hosts. She went back and forth greeting me and going back to Shannon or her husband to get her head scratched; there was big tail wagging going on there! Shannon is certainly knowledgeable and experienced in caring for dogs, responsible, kept my pup safe, and supported Daisy's quirks and needs. She and her family followed my requests and instructions perfectly. Shannon sent pictures, which my husband and I so appreciated, and was responsive and clear in all her communications. She was flexible when I requested a time change for drop off and was fine when I wanted to come a bit earlier than scheduled for pick up. Daisy will be very excited, and I will be very happy & confident leaving her again with Shannon ~ I highly recommend her to care for your pet! You get her and her wonderful family!”
“Nancy and her family were simply amazing with Toby! She sent pictures regularly and I could see from Toby’s smile how much fun he was having. I felt very comfortable leaving Toby in her care and highly recommend her. Thank you so much Nancy.”
“Gene did a great job in watching my dog Sam. He sent me photos and updates of Sam enjoying his walk and stay. Gene is kind and made me feel comfortable that Sam is safe and well cared for. I will definitely book his services again.”
About: I've had dogs most of my adult life and currently have a little Shichon named Ruby. We have a smoke free home with a fenced yard and doggie door. We take our pup out for daily walks. I'm home full time unless I'm working in Canada in the healthcare field and so would need to work around that. I usually work 2-3 weeks every 2 months. We have a fenced yard and lots of trails around for nice long walks. We also go to the beach at least twice a week.
“Marina was a pleasure to meet! On short notice she was able to watch our dog Sweet Pea for the afternoon while our family was out at the Boardwalk. She checked in with photos and stories of their walks in her neighborhood too. On top of that She was very graceful with us being a little outside our scheduled time for pickup. Thank you so much Marina, looking forward to having you hang out with Sweet Pea again next time we're down in Santa Cruz.”
About: Dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember, and caring for them is something I truly enjoy. I have owned and cared for two dogs, including one who lived to the remarkable age of 22. My current dog is 15 years old and still acts like a puppy, giving me valuable experience caring for both senior dogs and energetic companions. In addition to caring for my own dogs, I have been dog sitting for friends and neighbors since I was around 13 or 14 years old. Over the years, I have gained experience with dogs of different ages, sizes, and personalities, helping with feeding, walks, playtime, companionship, and maintaining their regular routines while their owners are away. I understand that every dog is unique and deserves patient, attentive care. Whether your dog loves outdoor adventures, playtime, or simply relaxing with a companion, I will make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. My goal is to provide dependable care and give pet owners peace of mind knowing their dogs are in good hands. I am currently a part time surf instructor. My schedule varies week to week depending on how many lessons are booked. That means I will have lots of time to hang out and take care of your dogs! I live in a nice neighborhood with a spacious backyard that is fenced in with a mix of astroturf and small rocks. I also have a shed in the back where the dogs can hang out when it is either raining or when it is super hot outside. It is a perfect hangout spot for your dogs to enjoy!
“Couldn't be happier with how they take care of my dog Reese. Give me good feedback and have been adaptable to my work schedule. Don't know what I would have done without them since I got Reese!”
“If you’re in the area and need someone to watch your dog, or if your dog needs a fun vacation, this is absolutely the place for your pooch! Marina and her husband are super nice and communicative, and their property is incredible with a fully fenced, 3 acre dog park with plenty of shade and space to run around in a beautiful setting, and they have 2 wonderful dogs for your pooch to play with. They sent regular updates on how our dog was doing, and Marina’s husband is an aspiring photographer so in addition to quality care for your dog you’ll get a free photoshoot of your dog playing and chilling with their new dog friends. Thanks for the wonderful care you gave to our dog, we’ll definitely be back next time we’re in town!”
“Our dog had a good day with Joshua and Evangeline! They are nice people and sent cute pictures of the dog. I appreciated that they were able to accept a fairly last-minute care request too.”
“Amber and her adorable son took amazing care of 6lb senior Sophie! Great communication before and during the stay. I wasn't sure how Sophie would adjust but Amber has the magic touch and all went incredibly well. I'd definitely book with Amber again!”

Whatever they need may be. I am reliable, caring and compassionate. I have skill with senior pets and pets with anxiety. Whatever is needed I can do. Scout, Coco, Winston, and Luna can attest
“Bhumi seems like a very nice woman, and I believe she takes care of Coco nicely and patiently. If she can send a text or a picture of Coco to show me how she is doing, that would help me feel more relaxed, especially at the beginning of the few times.”
“I cannot recommend Daniela enough for anyone in need of pet care services! I recently had the pleasure of entrusting her with the care of my two puppies for a day, and I couldn't be more impressed with her level of care and attention to detail. From the moment I dropped off my fur babies, it was evident that Daniela genuinely loves animals. She greeted them with warmth and made them feel right at home, which instantly put my mind at ease. Throughout the day, she went above and beyond to ensure that they were comfortable, safe, and happy. Daniela is incredibly sweet, attentive, and responsible. She provided regular updates, including photos and messages, which I greatly appreciated. It was clear that she treated my puppies as if they were her own. If you're looking for someone who will treat your pets with the love and attention they deserve, look no further than Daniela. I will definitely be returning to her for future pet care needs! Thank you, Daniela for your exceptional service and for taking such great care of my puppies!”

Currently I live with family and they help take care of our animals as well and take my dog and cat for walks, we live in nature so they sun bathe and frolic .

I've also had an animal that had surgery so I'm familiar with giving shots and pills as well!
“I am beyond pleased with the exceptional care and attention that our male dog walker provided to my two schnauzers. In just two walks, it is evident that he genuinely cares for them. His sweet demeanor and dedication make him a standout choice. I will definitely be utilizing his services again”
About: I have taken care of my dog Sami ever since we brought him home from the shelter four years ago. Throughout high school I would feed him, take him for regular walks, and bathe him when needed. Now as a college student, this responsibility continues whenever I am home for breaks. I have also cat sit multiple times for my family friends when they would go out of town. I would come over daily to their house, feed and play with the cats, and change the litter box. Right now I am a student at Cal Poly, and work a part-time in retail. Pet sitting works especially well currently during the summer as I am home and not planning on traveling much. Taking my dog Sami on daily walks is already a part of my routine, and further pet care would fit well into my schedule. I have a fenced yard and a friendly dog Sami! I am always gentle and loving towards any animal, and genuinely love caring for them!
About: As a lifelong dog parent, I love being a leader, cuddle puddle, walker, ball thrower, and runner for dogs of all kinds (100% adorable, every single one!) Whether your fuzziest family members prefer long walks on the beach or romps in the mountains, I love taking the furry friends out & about. Daycare, boarding, walking, medication management & special needs are all part of the arc of care, and am confident in showing your dear dogs the same care that my dogs get! I’m currently working part-time, and have a flexible enough schedule to accommodate weekday and weekend care as needed. I’m an early riser & love starting my day outdoors with a nice long walk. I have a fenced in yard & two friendly dogs to keep your pup company, and can accommodate crates for training if you prefer. We’re less than a miles from the beach and go for walks every couple hours, with plenty of play time & meals, as needed.

About: With over 20 years of experience caring for cats and dogs of all breeds and temperaments, I bring professional, reliable, and compassionate care to your pets. From administering medications and subcutaneous fluids to handling strong dogs on walks, I make sure your companions are safe, comfortable, and loved. At home, I care for two special-needs rescue cats, Angel and Squirrel, both three-legged “tripawds,” who keep me grounded in love every day. Animals have been my companions and teachers since childhood, and I love bringing that attentiveness into every sit. When I care for your pets, you can expect daily updates, consistent communication, and the peace of mind that they’re in loving, capable hands. I set my own schedule so I can fit in dog walks and drop-ins. Plan the day and service in hour-long slots and certain breaks. I live in a home with two cats, and a yard, shared with two friendly dogs, another cat and chickens, so boarding of a dog who is cat friendly, and friendly with other dogs and animals is possible.
About: I have experience with pet sitting for friends and neighbors over the past year along with having had all different breeds of dogs growing up and enjoy their company. I love to go for walks, hikes, the beach and would love to take your dog with me. I've had to give senior dogs medication and look after them. I know how hard it is to trust someone to watch your fur baby when your away and I'm that person and I will treat them like royalty. I am home everyday at 12:00. My husband works from home so one of us is always home with your dog. I am ready when I get home to take your dog with me on a walk or hike. Your dog will have access to a dog run area all day long and a large backyard when we are home. I have a house with a large fenced in yard and your dog will have complete access to outside at all times. At this time I don't have a dog of my own, so there will be no conflict between dogs. I want your dog to feel at home as much possible.

About: I grew up with pets from the time I was born. We had cats, dogs, turtles, lizards, bunnies, horses etc. I’ve assisted in rescuing kittens from the jungle in the Caribbean as well as providing food to the stray dogs and cats. Currently I’m in between jobs and working on writing so 100% of my time is dedicated to pet care. I’m sorta weird and like hanging out with animals more than with most people, so the more time the better. I am 31 and was gifted with a good common sense gene. I play with the animals as much as possible and respond to their needs accordingly.
About: I have loved animals my entire life. Throughout college and high school, I worked as a dog walker for Wag and a kennel attendant at the local vet. I currently work on boats and do this in the off-season or when things are slow. I love spending time with animals and will treat your baby like one of my own, with lots of walks, cuddles, and attention. If you have more questions please reach out :) I work on boats and my schedule varies. I typically update my calendar to reflect that. Please don't hesitate to reach out with any questions :) I am more than happy to watch your pets in your home. I rent so I need to get approval from my landlords before taking requests in my own home
About: I have extensive experience caring for all kinds of animals and animals are truly my life! I treat others’ fur babies as if they were my own. Pet sitting is my full time job so I don’t have any other conflicting professional obligations. I have my own pets and so they are the other main responsibility I work around when it comes to my schedule. I treat my clients homes with the utmost respect and care for every fur baby as if it were my own baby. I always consider the reassurance and comfort I would like to have and have for my own pets if they were in someone else’s care.
About: Animal lover with lifelong experience! I grew up on a farm, started pet sitting as my first job, and have cared for pets of all kinds—including special needs and senior animals. Attentive, reliable, and dedicated to making every pet feel safe and loved. I’m an early riser, so I love starting my days with walks, playtime, or morning visits. My schedule is very flexible and open, which allows me to adjust to your pet’s routine — whether that means midday drop-ins, long walks, or evening snuggles. Because I’m available throughout the week, I can provide consistent care and attention without rushing, making sure your pet always feels cared for and relaxed. When caring for pets in their own home, my top priority is making sure they feel safe and comfortable. I respect each pet’s normal routine — from feeding and walks to playtime and snuggles — so they feel secure while you’re away. I keep a close eye on doors, gates, and leashes to make sure everyone stays safe, and I make sure water bowls are always full and food is given exactly as instructed. I also believe pets thrive in a calm and loving environment, so I spend time giving them attention, play, and affection, while keeping your home neat and respected. You can count on me to treat your pets (and your space) as if they were my own
“Lara is very communicative and easy to work with. One of my dogs is very skittish and slow to warm up with new people, and the other is very large and over exuberant, and Lara has been great with them both. My dogs enjoy her visits and are always quiet and restful throughout the evening when she comes. And I love knowing they're not stuck inside all day. I'll definitely use Lara again.”
“I'm incredibly grateful for Luna's exceptional care of our beloved pooch while we were away for the day. From the moment they met, it was evident that Luna and our dog formed an instant bond. Their time together seemed nothing short of delightful, and I was thoroughly impressed by Luna's professionalism and evident passion for animals. Meeting her was a pleasure, and I'm eagerly anticipating the opportunity to enlist her services again in the future.”

I couldn't be happier to have my dog stay with Michelle and Michael, who are really nice and caring people.”

“Hi, I can tell when my dog was not stressed upon return from a boarding experience and our dog, was happy when no the caring hands of Steve and co. I got regular updates and My dog went on long walks and hikes. He had the company of other dogs and behaved in Steve’s presence- him being a trainer himself. Both the parties felt that it was a good fit - before boarding. Will not hesitate to recommend Steve with a glowing 5-stars!”

“Kara is the real deal! I was in a bind and needed some last minute help to watch my border collie over the weekend and she was extremely helpful. She was responsive and so caring with my baby. I wish I could include the photos she sent— I don’t even think I could have made my high energy dog as relaxed as she did. I highly recommend her services and from now on she will be my local go to.”
“Coleman and his wife were kind, flexible, and loving sitters for our odd couple of pit-lab mixes. The elder statesdog, a 15+ yo male, was happy to snooze his days away on their living room floor, and our bouncing babe, a 19 month old girl, loved the exercise and energy of a building full of doggie neighbors. We'll definitely be visiting them again!”
“Nadia took great care of my two Samoyeds during my winter vacation. We scheduled a meet up session before the booking, and I immediately saw her passion and love for dogs. She is very experienced. During the week that I was out, she sent pictures and videos to me every day. She carefully cleans their paws and make sure they always have supervised play. Thank you Nadia!”
“My large dog Yeti can be prone to anxiety, but looked very comfortable and relaxed in Diane's care. She took him out several times on walks and also let Yeti explore her beautiful backyard. Diane also sent detailed updates with photos and was very kind when I messaged that I was running a little late. Thanks again for watching Yeti!”
About: I’ve had dogs in my life for 30 years. I’ve been dog sitting for friends and family for over 20 years. My own dogs have graduated top of their class in puppy training school. I currently work from home, so I can arrange my schedule to make sure dogs in my care get all the love, affection, and attention they need and deserve. I have a small fenced in yard, good for small and medium dogs. My dog is friendly and even shares some toys. I can crate your dog if preferred. I am also within walking distance to a dog park, and an easy drive to dog beaches
