“Renee and Chris were outstanding! They agreed to a last minute request when I had an urgent need to fly home. We arranged a meet and greet very quickly to make sure our dogs were compatible. Chewie is a newly adopted rescue and he can be overwhelmed in new settings. He adapted quickly as Renee and Chris provided him with plenty of love, exercise, play time. I also received lots of updates which put me at ease while I was away. I would absolutely recommend them!”
“Marie is amazing. This was a last-minute booking on my part and she had never met my dog before. She won him over quickly, has a lot of experience with dogs, and even took initiative to give Willy Wonka a small haircut around his eyes because I haven't had time to maintain him. He was in very good hands with her and her communication was stellar!”
“Henri had a great weekend at Paulina’s! She came out to greet us and then took the leash and introduced Henri to her home-he was so comfortable with her from the start. Our dog has hardly been away from us in his 7 years and I was a little nervous about leaving him with someone new, but I soon realized I had nothing to worry about. Paulina is a very relaxed person and sent updates and adorable photos each day. It made me happy to see him look so at home with her. Don’t let her lack of a backyard discourage you-Henri was happy and tired when we picked him up. We will call on her whenever we need a dog sitter for when we visit our daughter in SF. Paulina was an absolute lifesaver and we are so happy to have found her!”
About: I’ve lived with dogs my whole life- including three Central Asian Shepherds, a Caucasian Shepherd, and a small Toy Terrier. I don’t currently have a dog, so I truly enjoy spending time with pets and giving them attention and care. Pet care has always been an important part of my daily routine. Whether it's feeding, walking, or playing with my own pets, or pet-sitting for friends and family, I make sure to prioritize the needs of the animals in my care. I understand the importance of consistent attention and effort in maintaining a happy and healthy pet, and am committed to providing that care. If providing pet-sitting services in the client's home, I ensure the pets have adequate food, water, and exercise, and maintain a clean and safe environment. If providing dog-walking services, I take the dogs on a safe and enjoyable walk while adhering to any specific instructions provided by the owner. Regardless of the service, I always prioritize the well-being and comfort of the pets in my care.
About: All dogs and cats love me whenever I visit my friends. I really enjoy the moment with them and with the ability to distinguish what they need at the first moment. I can be talking care of the pets after my full time job and also weekends. No matter winter or summer. Christmas is also ok. I am living in peninsula California and would love to take care of the pets in clients home when they need me. I can take care of the cats at home too.
“I've had trouble finding a sitter for my dog whos had issues with people in the past. Uriel and his family were willing to work with my dog leading up to his long stay to make sure hes comfortable. I have zero complaints, if anything my dog seemed to not want to leave. Im very happy with the communication and professionalism held by Uriel. I will be leaving my dog with him again in the future. One thing i wasnt aware of is that Uriel is bilingual. He was able to communicate in spanish for my family to be able to see how our dog was doing while we were gone. Thanks again!”
“Shao is an exceptional dog sitter—reliable, attentive, and incredibly communicative. She consistently keeps me updated with plenty of photos and videos, which makes it so easy to relax knowing my dogs are happy and well cared for. It’s clear she genuinely enjoys spending time with them and treats them with real thoughtfulness and care. I’m so grateful to have found someone I trust completely. Thank you, Shao!”
“Wonderful people! Super detail oriented on how to care for my fur baby Pico! They kept us updated everyday on how he was doing and I completely trust them. We will be in touch again for when we need a dog sitter again!”
“Gordon and Allison are two of the most friendly people I have ever met. They have a great home where Sadie will be safe and well cared for. They asked many questions about Sadie and handled the business very professionally. I knew I had picked the right place after the meet and greet. The secure property is great so I didn't have to worry about Sadie getting lost or stolen. Gordon and Allison took photos and sent me notes daily about how Sadie was doing during her stay. I was late in picking Sadie up due to transportation and Gordon and Allison were great about the delay. I truly appreciated there understanding my problem. ”
“I couldn't be happier with the care William provided for my dog, Cloud. William watched Cloud for 17 days, and during that time, he did an amazing job. Not only did William provide excellent care, but he also went above and beyond by training Cloud, socializing him with other dogs, and even grooming him. Cloud came back to me a better dog than when I left him, and I couldn't be more grateful. Thank you, William, for your exceptional care and dedication!”
“We are so happy to have found Wei. Our puppy was very well taken care of and we couldn’t recommend Wei enough. Wei is professional and kind. Communicated and sent pics when we were away. First time leaving our puppy and Wei eased all our worries. Thank you Wei!”
“I think Ellie found a new friend. I was afraid at first that she might not handle Ellies excitement but to my surprise she did it very well. I can Ellie is relaxed with the pictures shes sending me. Ellie even got a christmas present! thanks Sin! so far the best we got! Will definitely be back! Thanks Sin!”
“Cynthia & Chi were absolutely wonderful with Cali! She can be pretty skittish at first but they knew how to keep her comfortable and stimulated with lots of playtime and all those walks. They sent multiple photos and videos every day which totally reassured she was active and relaxed and overall very well cared for. Also they were super chill and accommodating when our flight got delayed. We will definitely use them again and are so happy to have found them!”
“Megan was such a thoughtful and communicative dog sitter. She sent updates and lots of photos of Prisma. We felt happy knowing our dog was in such safe and loving hands. Would recommend Megan to anyone looking for someone to watch their pup. ❤️🙏”
About: I’ve been around dogs pretty much my whole life, whether it was my standard poodle as a young kid, my mini poodle as a teenager or, more recently, the senior dogs I’ve fostered or adopted from Muttville. Dogs have always been in good hands with me. Right now my wife and I have two dachshund chihuahua mixes we adopted at five and six. Our home is a dog home. They’re on the couch, on the bed and even under the covers (if they want to burrow). They’re in the mix and they’re loved. If your dog has medications, I’ve got it. If they have special needs or they’re older and need a slower pace, I have ample experience with that. I’m currently dedicating my time to taking care of pups, so your pup will have my undivided attention throughout the days and evenings. The max amount of time I’d leave your dog alone would be for four hours. I have two dogs of my own that I would keep separate from your dog to ensure everyone’s safety and comfort. I have a fully fenced backyard with a couple of stairs. I also have pet stairs inside to help senior dogs get up on to the couch and bed
“David was fantastic with my Frenchie over the weekend, and I would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for a true professional. He was incredibly accommodating, allowing for both a very early drop-off and a late pickup, which made our travel plans much easier. Before the booking, he took the time to do a meet-and-greet, which helped us feel confident that it would be a great fit. His home is welcoming and clearly a place where dogs can feel comfortable. David also did a great job communicating with me while I was away and I appreciated his photos. One thing that really stood out was how well David handled my dog's unique needs. My Frenchie is leash reactive, and we're actively working through a few behavioral and training challenges. David took the time to understand his temperament and navigated those situations with patience and confidence. It was clear that he has experience working with dogs of all sort. We'll definitely be booking with him again soon.”
“Bronte’s 10 days with Christina was like puppy summer camp. She was well loved and looked after and got very attached to Christina while we were away—I was completely at ease knowing Bronte was being well cared for. Christina is like a second home for our dog!”
“Yuko and Kazu are amazing dog sitters. I knew my dog, Mochi, was in good hands when they sent multiple updates on him everyday. He had such a great time at their home. When I picked him up, he was worn out from all the fun. Highly recommend them!”
“Vanda was super flexible and took great care of our dog Marley during boarding. She sent pics everyday. Vanda even gave him a bath during the stay without me asking!”
“Terry was fantastic in taking care of my new fur baby. Terry is kind and caring and knows how to treat dogs. I appreciate Terry's excellent communication and pet sitting skills. Thank you Terry!”

“Emily was absolutely wonderful with my cat, Lou. Lou is an older kitty who can be a little particular, but Emily was so kind, patient, and attentive with her. She took the time to make sure Lou was comfortable, kept me updated with photos and messages, and gave her lots of love and care while I was away. I came home to a happy, relaxed cat, which is the best feeling.”
“Rebecca was very communicative throughout my trip and took great care of our cat Chikoo. She ensured that he felt comfortable the whole time and we felt very confident leaving our cat with her. Would definitely book her again!”
“Lydia took good care of Clancy, our fur baby, while my family was away for a 2-week vacation in Asia. She sent updates daily with lots of photos of Clancy and was very responsive to any of our questions in the Rover app. We have already booked her again for future cat sitting when we are away.”
“So thankful we were able to book Seng for three days of daily visits to check in and provide wet food for our older male kitty. The photos and videos she sent of him happy and enjoying her company really helped us not worry as much! She was great to communicate with and even provided updates during her visit. Thank you, Seng!”
“Sandra was fabulous! She was very accommodating to a change we made to our vacation and did not hesitate to work with us on that. Easy to communicate with and sent us lots of pictures as well as daily updates. Special thanks to Sandra for dealing with our sometimes spicy cat. Sandra knew just what to do and made us feel comfortable that both kitty and Sandra were safe! ❤️ We will definitely ask Sandra back next time we are away.”
“Ria was so great! My cat is scared of strangers and I really trusted Ria to give her space but still care for her. Ria was prompt, communicative, and gave helpful updates. I really appreciate Ria’s help!”
About: As a cat owner, I understand how important routine and comfort are for cats. I have experience with in-home visits, feeding, litter care, and giving cats the attention they need to feel safe and relaxed.
“Shai did an amazing job sitting our disabled, elderly kitty! She followed our routine and Fiona loved her. Fiona doesn't love many people. Shai communicated well and send pics. We will definitely book with her again!”
“Vanessa was very communicative around planning the visit and she was also very respectful of my cat’s boundaries around new people! She also was skilled in giving my cat her medication with minimal resistance haha. Thank you for taking care of her!”
“Mystyc was amazing with my elderly, disabled kitty Fiona! She was curious and helpful and willing to go the extra mile to make Fiona comfortable. She administered meds and changed protective coverings on Fiona's ankles with confidence and no trouble. Mystyc communicated clearly and sent updates and pics everyday. I would hire her again without hesitation, she truly cared about Fiona and it showed. Mystyc is a superstar and renewed my faith in Rover sitters!”
“Samantha was wonderful with my pets. My cats require a few extra steps since they do not get along very well, but she followed my instructions perfectly without any issues. She was very communicative, arrived when she said she would, and most importantly, I came home to two happy cats. I would absolutely recommend Samantha, and she will be the first person I reach out to next time I need a sitter.”
“Katrina is amazing! She dropped in on my cat this week, and I really appreciate how she is a great commincator and is very knowledgeable about pet care. She always goes above and beyond and it gives me a lot of peace of mind to know my cat is well cared for.”
About: I genuinely love cats and understand that each one has a unique personality - from shy and quiet to playful and curious. I have several years of experience caring for cats through fostering and helping friends and family while they were away. I'm patient, detail-oriented, and respectful of a cat's routine, whether that means slow introductions, interactive playtime, or simply keeping them company. I also pay close attention to feeding schedules, litter box cleanliness, and home safety. As a photographer, I love sending frequent photo and video updates so you can relax knowing your cat is happy, comfortable, and well cared for.
“James has been absolutely fantastic with my cat! 💯 % recommend him for anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter! James’s super kind, pays great attention to detail, and is incredibly professional. My cat always seems happy and well-cared for after spending time with James.”
“Michelle did drop in visits for my two cats. They enjoyed having her and she did a good job interacting with them when they wanted it and giving them space if they weren't up for it. She was communicative and capable. I'm planning to book her again for me next trip!”
About: I am a huge cat person who has adopted over 6 cats in my lifetime. I love to give cats the love and attention that they deserve. From playful kittens to independent adults, I understand how to meet their individual needs, whether it's grooming, feeding, or providing companionship
“Arillia has a special way of making my kitty feel cared for while I'm away! She feeds and plays with him and he loves to cuddle with her. I always appreciate the excellent communication, updates and photos!”

“We had a nice meet and greet, and Shao asked good questions about our dogs and their habits. Pick up and drop off were very easy and we got lots of pictures of our dogs enjoying their stay!”
“Marie Elenore was amazing with my pup, but also with me as I was running late for the scheduled time. 🐶🐾 Very accommodating. 👍😊 Crinkle definitely had a blast with her. 🎉🥳 Thank you! 🙏💖”
“We feel incredibly lucky to have found Renee and Christopher for Chewy’s daycare. They’re easy to work with, send frequent updates, and are clearly very thoughtful dog lovers — our senior dog Chewy seems so happy and comfortable in their home. Chewy often takes a while to warm up to new people, but they were quick to get a read on his personality and have made him feel at ease. When we go to drop him off he usually runs right in without looking back!”
“I left my dog for 2 days with Simon when I was in San Francisco visiting for the first time. Aspen had the best time and really liked being with Simon. This was fantastic as Aspen usually has a lot of separation anxiety at doggie day care facilities. Simon was very friendly and very professional and made sure Aspen was feeling good during the 2 days he was with him. I would highly recommend Simon to anyone who wants to see the city but can’t take their dog into many sightseeing places. I will definitely use Simon again if I am back in San Francisco!!!!”
“My dog had a fantastic time staying with Cynthia! Very fast response time, thoughtful care and a nice home. Appreciate all the pictures. My dog will be looking forward to future stays! A+”
About: I've grown up around dogs all my life and have been petsitting since I was 18 years old. I am familiar and comfortable with the routine that comes with caring, exercising, and loving all different types of dogs. I currently have a small network of clients who have trusted me with their pets for 7+ years. I am typically an early riser and love morning walks to start the day. There is also a park a few blocks away that I regularly run to myself. Whether I care for pets in my home or their own, I try my best to adhere to their routine and comforts. My favorite thing to do is go on nice walks with the dogs I care for and make sure they have enough safe playtime. I work on a hybrid schedule, but am fortunate enough to have plenty of flexibility. I am mainly available on weekends, as I will be home all day and can give proper attention and care to the pets I care for. When caring for pets, I try my best to adhere to their specified routines and boundaries. I live in a clean, cozy duplex and am able to take pets out for bathroom breaks conveniently.
“Thanks to Rachel and Ryan for the last minute help wit my Starla. There updates were very assuring and there love for dogs shows. I would definitely recommend these two kind folks to anyone!”
“Genuine people in this world are truly rare treasure! We rescued Rocco from the SPCA and quickly realized he could not be left at home alone while we went to work. I found out about this app a few days later and downloaded it. We were SO nervous leaving Rocco with new people after we just got him, but at the meet and greet Rocco warmed up to Gordon and Allison quickly. My partner are I felt so reassured that Rocco would be safe and cared about. Gordon and Allison are truly the most kind human beings my partner and I have met in a really long time. We were so grateful to find them. They will absolutely take the care of your dog. They took the BEST pictures of Rocco during the day too! My work schedule changed and we no longer need their services. Give them a try, we absolutely loved them and you and your pup will too! 🐾❤️”
“Thank you Sheena for offering outstanding daycare to Nala my 8 year old golden retriever. Sheena went above and beyond, syncing clearly with me to make sure I understood how her care could best support Nala, being flexible for drop/pickup time when my schedule changed last notice, and of course taking a ton of fun and amazingly photographed pictures of Nala throughout the day to keep me updated! I’d love to take Nala back to see Sheena again, she is a very down-to-earth and kind person :)”
“Christal does such an amazing job working with my baby girl. Given my pups temperament is super sassy and yappy, she did a great job with Christal’s fur babies. I can’t appreciate her enough with all her love and patience she continues to provide with not only my pup, but all her other lovely clients! 🐶💖”
“Great job taking care of our dog. Christopher is very responsive and communicated with us effectively to update us on our dog status. He is also very kind and considerate”
“I’m a first time Rover mom and found Jade L to be a gem! She was super understanding and accommodating of my changes due to family emergency. Then, talk about LOVE she provided my fur babies…Jade L is hands down awesome and has a big and soft heart for ! She took care of Alex and Sky as if they were her own. She sent photos and text to keep me informed of unusual behavior (ie, whimpering) and she also provided a report out at end of day/pick up time. I appreciate you, Jade! Thank you so much!”
“Cameron was very communicative, flexible, and took such great care of my dog. At pickup, he even let me know about small details like her water intake that I really appreciated. Laurel was very happy after day care with Cameron!”
“Randy is great with my pup! The second time I dropped my dog off there he ran straight to them and barely looked back. Highly recommend, two paws way up! 🐾 Thanks for taking care of JJ and for showing him such a great time!”
“Roxie had SO much fun playing at Stephanie's while I was traveling. Stephanie sends regular videos and updates and it's comforting to know your dog is having fun and well cared for while you're away. I appreciated her great communication from booking onward, as well.”
“First time with Leticia for my pup but felt like she’s known my dog forever. Loved the care and concern she showed and how thorough she was with questions before dropping her off. She sent tons of photos even though my pup was with her for only 6 ish hours. 100% would recommend her!”
“Janet took great care of Shiloh for the day. She sent multiple pictures and videos and even worked on some training with him. She clearly cares about the dogs she’s watching!”

“Anna showed up for me in a pinch— I needed help amidst unpacking from a move while my puppy showed signs of needing a little more help adjusting. She walked my young one and brought him back happy as can be! Anna is super professional and polite to work with, I couldn't ask for better communication. Thank you Anna!”
“Chenyang is excellent with our dog! She stays tuned into him, matching his pace and helping him enjoy his walks despite his health challenges. We rest easy knowing our pup is in good hands!”
About: I have taken care of a wide variety of animals since I was a child, especially dogs. As an adult I have loved and cared for many of my own dogs. I was professionally trained by the largest dog training company in the world to ensure my dogs were safe, and healthy both physically and mentally. I currently work part time as a surgical technologist and would love to help you with anything you and your baby need. I take my pup Jesse to the dog park every day and we just love it! I have a tall fence around my yard , a cozy crate in my home, dog beds, toy box, and a dog house in the backyard. Your pup will always be supervised when in ny home. And Jesse is super friendly and eager to welcome.
“James was so thoughtful, loving, and attentive to both the dog needs and the neurotic dog mom needs! He had two dogs to walk and took the best care of our little crew. We could tell from the pics that the dogs were so happy, and he sent us updates and pics along the walk. We recommend James 1000000%. Thank you!”
About: I’ve been helping to care for our family’s cats (feeding and litter boxes) from a very young age. I also have quite a bit of experience pet-sitting and have stayed overnight to care for friends’ pets. I will often take family or friends’ pets for walks while visiting, just because I enjoy being around animals. I am very diligent and will maintain any schedule or special instructions you might have. I do work full time from 8-4:30, Monday through Friday, but I am available in the evenings and on weekends. I do some tutoring after work but will be able to incorporate pet care into my schedule. I live in an apartment, but we do have a fenced in dog park and there are several large parks nearby. I do have a cat and dog (who are rather spoiled), but they are both quite friendly and ready to keep your pet company. My apartment is a decent size, and I strive to take my dog (a senior mini pinscher) out at least four times per day.
“Cheryll is awesome. She truly cares about the dogs she walks. She gave my pups a great walk and was very responsive and followed my instructions perfectly. I will definitely use her again as a dog walker, and would highly recommend her to any dog parents out there.”

“Seng was awesome! She made time for a meet and greet and few days before our walks were scheduled to begin and asked all of the important questions to understand how to best care for our dog. She's very kind, upbeat and clearly loves pets. Our dog can be a weirdo with people sometimes but he very clearly loves Seng and she loves him too. She was great about sending photos and keeping us updated with each walk. I would highly recommend Seng to walk your dog!!”
About: Hi! My name is Blessy, and I’ve always had a love for animals. As a cat owner myself, I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy to care for your pets while you’re away. I’m patient, responsible, and dedicated to making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved. I have experience caring for both cats and dogs, including feeding, walks, playtime, cleaning up after pets, administering basic medications, and following specific care instructions. I treat every pet as if they were my own and am happy to provide updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, young, or senior, I’m committed to providing personalized care and attention. I currently work part time, which allows me flexibility to provide dependable pet care throughout the week. I am available for drop in visits, walks, and pet sitting before and after work, as well as on many weekends. I understand the importance of maintaining your pet’s routine and will always do my best to accommodate their schedule and needs. I provide updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is happy and well cared for while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow all feeding schedules, medication instructions, and any special care requests. I take the time to learn each pet’s personality and boundaries to help them feel comfortable and secure. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important trust is, and I will treat your home and pets with the same care and respect I would expect for my own. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.
About: I have had two dogs throughout my life, my current who is 14 years old! I am additionally a certified guide dog trainer (for Guide Dogs for The Blind) and have successfully trained 2 puppies through their 1-13 month respective phases. I love spending time with animals and will give full/attentive care to your pet! I am currently working full-time remote. My schedule allows me to be flexible throughout the week allowing me to provide ample time for your dog! I have a fully enclosed yard with no other (current) pets in the household. My flexible schedule allows me to keep a close eye on your pet and crate/go outside when needed!
About: I've had dogs my whole life — that's 29 years of hands-on experience caring for them at every stage. Growing up around both working and non-working dogs gave me a well-rounded understanding of different breeds, temperaments, and needs. I currently have a dog of my own, so your pup will always be in the care of someone who genuinely lives and breathes this. As an added bonus, my sister is a veterinarian — so I bring not just personal experience, but a household full of professional-level knowledge when it comes to your pet's health and wellbeing. I work from home on weekdays, which means your pet is never far from someone who cares. I'm available for drop-in visits throughout the day as long as I can bring my laptop, and I'm free for walks Monday through Friday from 2:30–7pm. Weekends are more flexible, and I'm happy to house sit with advance notice. Having a work-from-home setup is honestly a perk for the pets I care for - there's always a calm, present person nearby. I'm no stranger to multi-dog households as I live with my own dog alongside my family's two dogs, so I'm comfortable managing the dynamics that come with multiple pets under one roof. I have hands-on experience with crate training and potty training, and I've cared for dogs in all kinds of setups: yards, apartments, you name it. For house sitting and drop-in visits, I actually prefer caring for dogs in their own environment as familiar surroundings mean less stress for your pet, and I'm there to keep their routine as normal as possible. It's the setup where I do my best work.
“Always incredibly responsible and amazing with my animals. I used her years ago with my senior animal in his last two months. And now she gets to be a part of the new members of the family. Always so awesome to have a long term relationship with someone you can rely on!”
About: Hi! I’m a caring and reliable pet sitter with 8 years of experience caring for cats and hands-on experience with dogs as well. I can speak Cantonese/Mandarin/English.I’m a proud cat parent to three sweet and friendly cats, so I truly understand feline routines, personalities, and individual needs. Over the years, I’ve hosted and fostered many cats in my home, caring for cats of different ages and temperaments. In addition to cat care, I also offer dog walking and cat sitting at your place . I have experience walking dogs of various sizes and energy levels, and I always prioritize safety, patience, and positive interactions. I also have special-needs pet care experience. I previously helped care for a paralyzed French Bulldog for over a year and a half, assisting with daily routines, mobility support, and attentive care. Additionally, I have hosted a dog in my home for two months, providing a stable, loving, and structured environment. I’m patient, attentive, and truly passionate about animals. Whether it’s a shy cat, an energetic dog, or a pet needing extra care, I treat every animal as if they were my own. I’m committed to providing a safe, comfortable, and loving experience while you’re away. I’d love to care for your pet and give you peace of mind! Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine. I don’t have another full-time job at the moment, which allows me to dedicate a large amount of time and attention to the animals in my care. I’m home most of the day, so I can closely monitor pets, stick to their routines, and provide plenty of companionship, playtime, walks, and individualized care. Making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved is a top priority for me. In my client’s home, I focus on maintaining the pet’s normal routine to reduce stress. This includes feeding, refreshing water, cleaning litter boxes, walking dogs, playtime, medication if needed, and lots of positive attention. I also keep the home tidy and provide regular updates with photos and messages so owners always feel informed and reassured. Safety, patience, and kindness are always my priorities. I’m experienced with cats, dogs, and pets that need extra care or special attention, and I treat every pet as if they were my own.
“This is a long overdue review, but Maria is literally the best!! She’s been taking care of my dog Rado since January of this year, and she is so incredibly kind, reliable, patient, and amazing with Rado. Rado is on the more nervous and reactive spectrum, as he is a rescue from another country. Maria is able to work with his anxiety and stubbornness despite it all. If you are looking for someone to help take care of your fur baby, cannot emphasize Maria enough. She’s truly amazing! I cannot thank you enough!!”
“My dog Ozzy is a senior dog that requires specific care and Shao made sure to accommodate perfectly! Ozzy gets little panic attacks when alone for too long sometimes and at times requires medication. She used her intuition and gave him his anxiety pill because she felt that he had asthma like symptoms and was restless. When I came home he was and snoring away peacefully. She fed, walked, and made sure to even put his shoes on for the rain even though it’s a bit tricky to figure out how to put them on! I look forward to having her take care of Ozzy again in the future, def recommend if you have a senior dog or any dog for that matter! 10/10.”
About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs my whole life. I grew up with a family dog starting at age 2, and I now have two 6-year-old dogs of my own: a high-energy husky and a more relaxed golden retriever. Because of that, I’m comfortable caring for dogs with all different personalities and energy levels. I also ran a small dog walking/sitting business for friends and mutuals for 4 years. I’m currently a healthcare student with extra free time this summer, and I’d love to spend it caring for dogs and giving your pup the love, attention, and exercise they deserve! I am a healthcare student who is currently on break so I have a lot of free time for your pup! I am very flexible. I always prioritize safety, comfort, and trust, and I’ll follow your pet’s routine closely. Whether I’m caring for your dog in my home or yours, I’ll make sure they feel loved, supervised, and cared for like my own.

“Henri had a great weekend at Paulina’s! She came out to greet us and then took the leash and introduced Henri to her home-he was so comfortable with her from the start. Our dog has hardly been away from us in his 7 years and I was a little nervous about leaving him with someone new, but I soon realized I had nothing to worry about. Paulina is a very relaxed person and sent updates and adorable photos each day. It made me happy to see him look so at home with her. Don’t let her lack of a backyard discourage you-Henri was happy and tired when we picked him up. We will call on her whenever we need a dog sitter for when we visit our daughter in SF. Paulina was an absolute lifesaver and we are so happy to have found her!”
“I've had trouble finding a sitter for my dog whos had issues with people in the past. Uriel and his family were willing to work with my dog leading up to his long stay to make sure hes comfortable. I have zero complaints, if anything my dog seemed to not want to leave. Im very happy with the communication and professionalism held by Uriel. I will be leaving my dog with him again in the future. One thing i wasnt aware of is that Uriel is bilingual. He was able to communicate in spanish for my family to be able to see how our dog was doing while we were gone. Thanks again!”
“Shao is an exceptional dog sitter—reliable, attentive, and incredibly communicative. She consistently keeps me updated with plenty of photos and videos, which makes it so easy to relax knowing my dogs are happy and well cared for. It’s clear she genuinely enjoys spending time with them and treats them with real thoughtfulness and care. I’m so grateful to have found someone I trust completely. Thank you, Shao!”
“I couldn't be happier with the care William provided for my dog, Cloud. William watched Cloud for 17 days, and during that time, he did an amazing job. Not only did William provide excellent care, but he also went above and beyond by training Cloud, socializing him with other dogs, and even grooming him. Cloud came back to me a better dog than when I left him, and I couldn't be more grateful. Thank you, William, for your exceptional care and dedication!”
“We are so happy to have found Wei. Our puppy was very well taken care of and we couldn’t recommend Wei enough. Wei is professional and kind. Communicated and sent pics when we were away. First time leaving our puppy and Wei eased all our worries. Thank you Wei!”
“I think Ellie found a new friend. I was afraid at first that she might not handle Ellies excitement but to my surprise she did it very well. I can Ellie is relaxed with the pictures shes sending me. Ellie even got a christmas present! thanks Sin! so far the best we got! Will definitely be back! Thanks Sin!”
“Cynthia & Chi were absolutely wonderful with Cali! She can be pretty skittish at first but they knew how to keep her comfortable and stimulated with lots of playtime and all those walks. They sent multiple photos and videos every day which totally reassured she was active and relaxed and overall very well cared for. Also they were super chill and accommodating when our flight got delayed. We will definitely use them again and are so happy to have found them!”
“Megan was such a thoughtful and communicative dog sitter. She sent updates and lots of photos of Prisma. We felt happy knowing our dog was in such safe and loving hands. Would recommend Megan to anyone looking for someone to watch their pup. ❤️🙏”
About: I’ve been around dogs pretty much my whole life, whether it was my standard poodle as a young kid, my mini poodle as a teenager or, more recently, the senior dogs I’ve fostered or adopted from Muttville. Dogs have always been in good hands with me. Right now my wife and I have two dachshund chihuahua mixes we adopted at five and six. Our home is a dog home. They’re on the couch, on the bed and even under the covers (if they want to burrow). They’re in the mix and they’re loved. If your dog has medications, I’ve got it. If they have special needs or they’re older and need a slower pace, I have ample experience with that. I’m currently dedicating my time to taking care of pups, so your pup will have my undivided attention throughout the days and evenings. The max amount of time I’d leave your dog alone would be for four hours. I have two dogs of my own that I would keep separate from your dog to ensure everyone’s safety and comfort. I have a fully fenced backyard with a couple of stairs. I also have pet stairs inside to help senior dogs get up on to the couch and bed
“Sandra & Jose are everything you could want in the people who you trust to watch your pet. I could tell from the photos that my pup felt safe, happy, and truly at home with this lovely couple. It kinda felt like he belongs with them, so I was happy to extend his stay. Communication was on point, lots of cute pupdates, and my dog came home as one should after a lovely vacation— relaxed and happy. Thank you both for your time & dedication. It means the world to my little family.”
“Julley was absolutely amazing! She was super communicative from the get-go and she pays attention to details. Marvel is usually picky about who she likes but she formed a connection with Julley instantly. Julley went the extra mile to take care of Marvel and I felt so comfortable having my fur baby in her hands. Julley was very responsive with her messages and pictures. She is a very capable sitter and was able to follow all my care instructions. We definitely look forward to booking with Julley again!”
“Our doodles had a lovely stay with Laura and her family, with multiple daily walks and plenty of space to play. Working with Laura was super easy, communications were straightforward, she asked lots of questions to make sure they had a good schedule and she sent daily pictures of our pets. We'll definitely send our dogs to her again.”
“Jose took great care of Arlo! He sent us daily updates and Arlo seemed to have a great time. We will definitely come back to Jose next time we're travelling.”
“Vanessa took excellent care of Biscuit. She was very communicative and he developed a solid bond with her and Kenzo in the short time that they were together. Highly recommend and would have no hesitation rebooking with Vanessa.”
“Mimi and Wilson were great caretakers of my dog Nala (60 lb german shepherd mix) during an 11 night stay over the holidays. Nala is very hesitant in new spaces and Mimi and Wilson were super accommodating - moving all her things to the room she was most comfortable in and hanging out in there with her as well. I received daily pupdates and pictures and was at ease knowing she was enjoying her stay. Thanks Mimi and Wilson!”
“Drew took such good care of Ruxin on a last minute booking! I really appreciated how thorough and careful she was during our meet and greet. And very communicative! Received a lot of cute photos and videos while my dog was in Drew’s care. Thank you so much, Drew 🥹”
“Luke was so great with Garbanzo! He has two other pups Roo and Pickles who get along well with other dogs. He sent me lots of photos of the dogs tired after long days of fun at the dog park.”
