“Karen clearly loves animals. Our dog, Bailey, was easily incorporated into the household with photos taken, exercised and played with. We would use her again.”
“Joyce is FANTASTIC!! She came to the rescue at very short notice and was quick to respond, kind, calm, and extremely thoughtful. We had an emergency situation and needed someone to care for our pup for a week. Joyce responded right away and was able to take in our little guy the same night. Joyce sent daily pictures of our pup looking happier than ever under her care! My family and I are so grateful for Joyce. I will absolutely be hiring Joyce again for all my future doggy sitting needs! Thank you, Joyce!! You are an angel. ♥️”

“Donghae (Ted) was an amazing sitter for our dog. He was responsive, caring, and very communicative. Ted also has a structured way of caring for your pet - as in he asks for details like allergies, preferences, and schedules. Overall, great experience and would 100% rebook.”
“Where do I start, if I could leave a 10 star review I would, from the moment I left my dog with Steven it was pure joy, he was always in contact with updates with pics and videos, he is truly a animal lover, he is so patient and attentive, he will go above and beyond with your dog, I will definitely book again with Steven, thanks a lot Sol my dog was extremely happy staying with Steven. He is awesome!!!”
“We had such a great experience with Adolfo! He took care of our two dogs, Ozzy (9) and Jessie (1), for a week while we were on vacation, and we couldn’t have asked for better care. He took them on walks, played with them, made sure they were fed, and even gave them their vitamins. Adolfo also kept us updated with pictures and videos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was such a relief knowing our dogs were happy, safe, and being well taken care of. We were able to truly enjoy our vacation knowing Ozzy and Jessie were in such a positive and caring place. We highly recommend Adolfo and would definitely trust him with our dogs again!”
“Julie and her mom were so sweet! They took really good care of my one senior dog and one adult dog. We had specific instructions for the senior dog and she did really well following them.”

“Best dog sitting experience I have ever had. Not only did she provide attentive and loving care for my dog, but she also took him on outings to the beach, which he absolutely loved. Her attention to detail and genuine affection for my pet were evident in every interaction. She kept me updated with photos and messages, ensuring I felt comfortable and reassured. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience, and I highly recommend Irina to anyone in need of a caring and responsible dog sitter.”
“Amanda was so amazing! I’m so happy she was available. She got back to me quickly when i needed a last minute sitter. THANKFUL. She made me feel calm with my fluff being in her hands. She kept me up to date with photos throughout the day! Thanks Amanda!! ?”
“Pan & Cake really enjoyed their nearly two week stay while we were in Japan! We received daily updates and pictures! They got to go to many places including the beach! The dogs came back tired (in a good way of course) and looked really happy and healthy. Highly recommend! 10/10!”
“Justin and Athena are absolutely wonderful pet sitters! They took such great care of Chewy and kept me updated with regular messages and updates, which gave me so much peace of mind. They are extremely kind, attentive, and you can tell they have years of experience with dogs. They followed instructions perfectly and treated Chewy like their own. Chewy loves seeing them, which says a lot! grateful for the care and attention they give him and would highly recommend Justin and Athena to anyone looking for trustworthy, experienced, and caring pet sitters.”
“This was Shimin’s third time watching Kuchára, and she’s consistently amazing. Her updates were just as thoughtful and regular as always, and it’s so clear she loves Kuchára as much as we do. We’re so grateful for the care and comfort she gives our girl every time. 🐶💛”
“Tansy just had her third staycation with Paul and had an amazing time as always! She gets so much socialization and fun activities and Paul always keeps me in the loop every step of the way and goes above and beyond for her. I can’t recommend Paul enough!”
“Angelica was such a blessing to me and my little dog during this whole process. I had my worries as a first time use of this type of service as I've never left my dog with anyone outside of a few family members but my dog felt right at home with Angelica. Regular updates and pictures helped out my mind at ease in such a short period of time while I was out of state on business. I would highly recommend Angelica as an experienced sitter. She showed Sundae a lot of love and already made herself a second home and a friend for life. Will 100% call on her services again in the future.”
“Hillary was great with Oliver. She was super patient and understanding of his needs and slight anxiety. I appreciated her communication style and updates. Would definitely book again”
“Bill and his family took amazing care of my dog. My dog has a lot of energy but I can tell they spent a lot of time with him and he enjoyed his time playing in their yard. I would definitely recommend and request for him to watch my dog again.”
“Goeun was the most amazing boarder EVER. My family and I are so thrilled and appreciative to have met her. She was exceptionally communicative, caring, and sweet to our pup. We (and our dog) are so grateful.”
“Albina was a ROCKSTAR. Our insanely scared dog loved her immediately. She made us a Christmas decoration with his name on it and homemade treats. I almost cried with how kind she was. We will be coming back!!”

About: What really sets me apart as a sitter is the way I connect with each pet. I take my time getting to know their personalities, their routines, and what makes them feel safe and happy. I’m patient, gentle, and very consistent, which helps animals trust me quickly. I also have real experience with both puppies and senior pets. With puppies, I’m comfortable helping with things like crate training, potty schedules, and guiding them through all their “learning moments.” With senior pets, I’m very mindful of their comfort — I can move at their pace, help with mobility, give medication reminders, and make sure they feel calm and cared for. At the end of the day, I treat every pet like my own and always do my best to make them feel loved, understood, and at ease while their owners are away Pet care fits into my routine pretty naturally.

In a client’s home, I stick closely to their instructions and treat their space with respect. No matter where I am, I make sure each pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for.
“Our pup had the best time with Amanda, he was happy when we dropped him off and happy when we picked him up the next day. Amanda was communicative, flexible, and friendly. We will be using her again!!”
“Jade’s enthusiasm for the pets she works with is really apparent. A happy smile, and just such a happy approach to my puppy Boo. She was eager to return after her first day. Thanks.”
“I needed a last minute pet sitter for my new puppy. I hadn’t left him alone before so I was quite nervous, but Sabrina eased any worries I might have by updating me regularly and sending me the absolute cutest videos of my baby boy playing and getting cared for.

I recommend Sabrina for detailed care for your furry babies ❤️ thank you and will be back again”

About: Hello! My name is Paige. I’m a dedicated pet lover with hands-on experience caring for dogs of all personalities and needs. I’ve fostered shelter dogs and helped them find their forever homes, which taught me patience, adaptability, and how to build trust with dogs from all kinds of backgrounds. I’m very familiar with different types of dog gear; collars, harnesses, and leashes and I understand how important proper fit and comfort are for safe, enjoyable walks. I’ve also trained my own dog, Nala (my best friend!), and have experience working through reactivity, so I’m especially mindful of each dog’s unique triggers and comfort level. One thing I truly believe is that no two dogs are the same. I take the time to meet every dog where they’re at, whether that means slow introductions, extra playtime, or just a calm, reassuring presence. Along with fostering, I’ve helped friends and family with dog sitting and walking, so I’m very comfortable handling daily routines, feeding, exercise, and lots of love and attention. Your pet’s safety, happiness, and comfort are always my top priorities and I’ll treat them like one of my own every step of the way. Pet care is a natural part of my everyday life. When I’m not pet sitting or out on walks, I work at a pet store, so I’m constantly surrounded by animals and staying up to date on pet care, products, and best practices. Because of my flexible schedule, I’m able to offer daily walks, drop-in visits, and check-ins that can be tailored to your pet’s specific routine and needs. Whether your pet thrives on consistency, extra exercise, or just some midday company, I can adjust my schedule to make sure they’re getting the care and attention they deserve. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are always my top priorities. I take the time to carefully follow each owner’s instructions, because I understand that every pet has their own habits, preferences, and needs. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I aim to keep things as consistent and stress-free as possible by sticking to their usual schedule for feeding, walks, playtime, and any medications. I’m very attentive to behavior and body language, allowing me to adjust my approach depending on whether your pet is energetic, shy, or needs a little extra patience. I respect your home just as much as your pet, keeping things clean, secure, and exactly how you left them. My goal is to provide reliable, adaptable care so you can feel confident your pet is safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away.

I am a high school student looking for a job I genuinely will enjoy, I love pets and being able to be with them while earning money is such a great opportunity. I have my own two little dogs who I walk every other day, I understand how to care for them during walks and watch out for anything that can possibly harm them.
About: I did dog rescue for 12 years, and lots of pet sitting. I trained dogs at the shelter cleaned and cared for them, did basic vet tech, I also ran a volunteer program and trained others to care for the dogs. I have worked for Oakland Animal Services and Happy Endings Dog Rescue. I had 2 pitties in my life that I rescued and they lived to 16 and 17. I’m taking a break from having dogs, and would love to pet sit yours! Both my dogs were special needs, one was blind the other deaf. They lived a long happy life ❤️🐶🐶 I have fostered and rehomed over 50 dogs, I’ve lost count. In my dog work experience I worked a lot with big dog breeds. I have no breed discrimination and love all dogs! This is my first time in 20 years without a dog. I paint/draw and work from home, I’m a full time artist. You can see I even do pet portraits, I’m dog obsessed haha. I hike and walk every day and missing having a buddy to take with! I’m also happy to just cuddle or hang with a dog if hiking is not an option! Working from home and loving the outdoors makes my life is pretty ideal for dog sitting ☺️ I own my home. I have a fenced yard with a fence that keeps most dogs in unless you have a super dog that can jump very high! If so then only leashed walking for your dog! I have a front patio/tiled area, and backyard that are both fenced and separated. I can crate or not crate your dog whatever your preference is. I allow dogs on furniture and in my bed for cuddles if they are bathed prior to coming over and not dirty, if you allow it at home that is! I’ve done lots of dog training and while I love a trained dog, I also love letting dogs be dogs! 🤗 I’m really good at working with anxious and fearful dogs too, and making them at home and push gently past their fears.

“Karen clearly loves animals. Our dog, Bailey, was easily incorporated into the household with photos taken, exercised and played with. We would use her again.”
“Donghae (Ted) was an amazing sitter for our dog. He was responsive, caring, and very communicative. Ted also has a structured way of caring for your pet - as in he asks for details like allergies, preferences, and schedules. Overall, great experience and would 100% rebook.”
“Where do I start, if I could leave a 10 star review I would, from the moment I left my dog with Steven it was pure joy, he was always in contact with updates with pics and videos, he is truly a animal lover, he is so patient and attentive, he will go above and beyond with your dog, I will definitely book again with Steven, thanks a lot Sol my dog was extremely happy staying with Steven. He is awesome!!!”
“We had such a great experience with Adolfo! He took care of our two dogs, Ozzy (9) and Jessie (1), for a week while we were on vacation, and we couldn’t have asked for better care. He took them on walks, played with them, made sure they were fed, and even gave them their vitamins. Adolfo also kept us updated with pictures and videos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was such a relief knowing our dogs were happy, safe, and being well taken care of. We were able to truly enjoy our vacation knowing Ozzy and Jessie were in such a positive and caring place. We highly recommend Adolfo and would definitely trust him with our dogs again!”
“Julie and her mom were so sweet! They took really good care of my one senior dog and one adult dog. We had specific instructions for the senior dog and she did really well following them.”
“This was Shimin’s third time watching Kuchára, and she’s consistently amazing. Her updates were just as thoughtful and regular as always, and it’s so clear she loves Kuchára as much as we do. We’re so grateful for the care and comfort she gives our girl every time. 🐶💛”
“Bill and his family took amazing care of my dog. My dog has a lot of energy but I can tell they spent a lot of time with him and he enjoyed his time playing in their yard. I would definitely recommend and request for him to watch my dog again.”
“From Margaret’s regular photo updates, it is clear that Rosie was not merely a boarder, but having a great adventure, lavished w care, lots of activity and attention! Thank you for everything!”
“Valentina is the best sitter you can get! She’s active and sweet, took great care of my babies and gave me daily updates. You can be sure that your babies will be in great care with her! I’m so thankful for her!”
“Cara was wonderful with catsitting Watson. Watson was typically shy and he was willing to sit on Cara's lap and hang out with her. She sent many photogenic shots of Watson lounging around. I would recommend again!”
“Deanna was phenomenal! She helped me when I was in a pickle and needed a dog sitter on very short notice. Not only was she willing, she was incredibly accommodating, kind, and communicated regularly with updates throughout my dog’s stay. I picked up a very happy pup who’s acting like his usual self. I can’t thank Deanna enough!”
“Micheal was great and accommodating with our changing of times and last minute booking. Bonita was a little nervous but she came home super chill and happy. We received super cute photos too.”
“Narar was amazing to our Frenchie! She kept him super fresh and happy. Took him on a lot of walks. Sent me a lot of pictures to keep us updated which we loved. Our frenchie really enjoyed playing with her sweet dog Chichi. She is great I highly recommend her!”
“Jade was AMAZING! She kept our little boy in tip top shape and we couldnt have asked for a better caretaker. She was on top of her communication from start to finish, and always kept us in the loop regarding anything and everything about scooter. She made us feel like our boy was in great hands!”
“Elva was so amazing with our babies! She kept us updated with all the fun they were having without us ever needing to check in. Loved that she was just a natural at noticing all our dogs funny quirks and enjoyed their company. Appreciate you Elva!!”
“Kaili took wonderful care of Lolo while we were away. She sent lots of photos and updates, which gave us so much peace of mind, and it was obvious he was having a great time and being cared for like he was part of her family. We came home to a happy dog, and that means everything. I would absolutely trust her with Lolo again and will definitely use her services in the future. Thank you so much, Kaili! 💛”
“Gary is calm and he even made my dog be comfortable around big dogs. He communicates during the day with pics and txts and understands a pet parents anxiety. When I picked Finn up and it was time to leave - my dog put his little head into Gary’s hands to say good bye. That sold me! Gary is the “dog whisperer” and I booked him again.”
“Janelle and her partner go above and beyond to make your pets feel happy and at home with them! My two pups had a fun and cozy time at their place. When I forgot to bring my senior dog’s bed with him, they ran out and bought him a new bed! We are beyond grateful for these two, they will care for your pets like they’re their own!”
