“We’ve never left our dog with anyone but immediate family and never with anyone for 12 days. Anusha managed our high energy dog perfectly and developed a rapport with him right away. She also managed my own anxiety by sending photos and videos twice daily to show me that our dog was relaxed and happy in her care. I can’t thank her enough for the care and attention she provided.”

“Kimberly is just wonderful! She’s kind, dependable and stays in communication making it easy to enjoy your time away knowing they are in good hands. I’ve used her services a few times over the last year and highly recommend her! Thank you, Kimberly, for such great care and love for my dogs.”
“I had a wonderful experience with Dipanjana and felt completely at ease leaving my dog in her care. She was attentive, communicative, and clearly genuinely cared about making my dog feel comfortable and happy. I received regular updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. My dog came home relaxed, happy, and clearly well cared for. I truly appreciated her professionalism and kindness throughout the stay. I would absolutely trust her with my dog again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.”

“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.”

“Our senior whippet stayed with Qi (wonderful dog sitter) for over a week, and the experience was exceptional. We received frequent updates and photos, which gave us total peace of mind and let us see how relaxed and happy he was. It was clear he was being cared for with genuine affection, patience, and attention to his needs as an older pup. We always felt he was safe, comfortable, and treated like family. We couldn’t be more grateful and highly recommend their services.”

“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.”

“This is the second time we hired Juliana to watch our dog, Maui, and we were very happy with her services. She's very communicative and shares updates and pictures regularly. Still highly recommend her and we look forward to a future booking with her.”

“Everything went smoothly despite my puppy’s high energy. Rachel and her husband offered a meet and greet, were curious about rules I have for my pet so they could adhere to them too, they gave her great exercise and an opportunity to play with their dogs, they are experienced and have a safe home, and it seems like my puppy just really liked it there. She came back tired and happy. I would rebook.”


“Nabil took wonderful care of Raisin for two days. It was Raisin’s first time staying away from home, so we were a little nervous, but Nabil and Sunny made her feel comfortable and safe. She quickly warmed up to them, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear that she was well cared for and treated with kindness. We truly appreciated the updates and the loving care Raisin received. I would highly recommend Nabil to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy pet sitter!”

“Elizabeth is great! Always responsive and keeps me up to date how my doggie is doing. She was able to help me out of a jam where an incident caused me to run over my time to pick up. She worked with me and made sure everything was okay. I’ll be using her again. Recommended 10/10”

“I couldn’t be happier with the care my dog received! She took such great care of my dog—always by her side, making sure she was never lonely. My dog got plenty of activities, fresh air, and attention every day. She even gave her a bath before returning her, and my dog came back refreshed, fluffy, and super happy! It’s clear she truly loves animals and treats them like her own. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a reliable and loving dog sitter!”

“Sofia was so welcoming to Luna and was very patient with her separation anxiety. She took such good care of Luna and sent a daily update with a picture. I felt very much at ease leaving Luna with Sofie knowing that she was being loved and cared for. I will book with Sofia for my next trip!”

“Debra is amazing! My dog Winter felt right at home the moment she arrived. Debra has a very large backyard for dogs to roam around and play. Her home was very clean, inviting and accommodating. She took my dog for several walks throughout the day and sent several pictures and updates. Debra is someone I trust completely and will always count on her for the future. I highly recommend Debra.”

“Lyan is so sweet and wonderful. It was great finding someone close to us, so that was a major plus. We had a chance to meet them beforehand, especially their dog, Dexter. So adorable! Our Mylie had a wonderful stay with Lyan. We got photo and text updates throughout and her communication is top notch. We will most certainly use Lyan's services again. Highly recommend!”

“Leaving my girls with Joyce and her family was once again a great decision! They had so much fun, received lots of attention, and enjoyed plenty of playtime. Joyce kept us updated regularly, which gave us peace of mind. We’ll definitely be back!”

“Nevin and her beautiful family took awesome care of our little Miss Mia! She sent pictures daily and we could see how happy Mia was, which thereby allowed us to enjoy ourselves on our vacation with peace of mind. We most definitely will be back as repeat customers for future trips. Don’t hesitate to book her for your pet sitting needs! Trust me, you will not be disappointed!”

“Our dog spent another long weekend with Boris and Olga and I feel like he had the best weekend! They took him on a hike and it feels like they really treated him like their own. Great communication. Lots of photos. Flexible with drop off and pick up. Would absolutely use again!”

“We had a wonderful experience with Jennifer. I appreciated her speedy responses when we were messaging back and forth to set everything up. You can tell that she and her family really love animals. Our dog Kona got a walk in every day we were gone and Jennifer kept us in the loop with pictures and updates on how the weekend was going. We already have our next booking with Jennifer set up. Thank you Jennifer!”

“We had a great experience! She followed all of our instructions, spent time playing with our cat, and made sure she got the attention and care we asked for. It gave us a peace of mind knowing our kitty was in good hands while we were away. We would definitely book with her again (we also got additional pictures and videos of our girl which was the best)!”


“Excellent job again with my reactive guy. He was calm after she left which has not always been the case with dog sitters after they leave. She takes time to mellow him out and it pays off. Very grateful for your kindness and care for my pup <3”


“Shylynn always takes such great care of our cats! She is an attentive sitter and I love all the pictures she sends. I never wonder how my cats are doing while she is watching them, she gives great updates”

“Isabella went above and beyond in her care for Petunia, and left the house in perfect condition! My cat was extremely content when I arrived home, as if I had never left. Can’t recommend Isabella enough. Very friendly and easy to communicate with as well!!”

About: I’m a proud owner of a crazy dog and a wannabe independent cat, and I’ve been pet sitting for most of my neighbors, taking their dogs on walks, and making sure all of their animals are fed and have had some time to play! I love all animals and I can handle anything from the most energetic puppy to a grumpy cat. I’m something of a pet whisperer I’m currently in highschool, so my scheduling for the next couple months is Monday-Thursday after 1:45pm, Fridays after 12:15, Saturdays after 3:15, and anytime Sunday I can stop by once a day or multiple times a day depending on what is desired in order to feed, check on water, take on walks, or just to get some play time in. Also super down to just keep your pets company for a while, because I know some of them miss their people.
“Tarah was fantastic! She did 4 drop-ins a day with our 2 dogs and always sent updates and photos. Our Whippet/Husky mix can be quite a rascal, but Tarah handled her energy very calmly. Very friendly and reliable.”


About: I have previous pet sitting experience with cats, and understand the unique needs of each individual cat! I understand firsthand how some cats need more space and time to warm up, while others (…orange cats) are wild from day one! Regardless, I am looking forward to getting to know your cat and taking great care of them:)

About: Cats have a special way of letting you know when you’ve earned their trust, and I enjoy taking the time to get to know each one’s unique personality. I’ve owned two cats in the past and currently live with two cats, so I understand that every cat has different needs—some are playful and social, while others prefer a calm, quiet presence. Whether your cat needs fresh food and water, a clean litter box, playtime, medication reminders, or simply someone to check in and provide companionship, I’ll care for them with patience, compassion, and respect for their routine. My goal is to help your cat feel safe and comfortable while giving you peace of mind through dependable care, clear communication, and photo updates during every visit.

“Callie takes such good care of our pets! She always fits us in last minute and goes above and beyond. You can tell she really cares about making sure our pets (dog & cat) are well cared for in our absence. Even our shy kitty came to greet her.”

About: I have 20 years of experience starting when I got my first horse at 10 years old and since have worked with countless dogs and cats as well as dolphins, seals, large birds, horses, and the occasional farm animal.

About: I have taken care of animals my entire life, both my own and others’. I’m currently in a veterinary technician program, which gives me good perspective on the unique needs of your animals. I also have experience with dogs of all sizes, temperaments and life stages as well as cats and even rabbits. I can handle high energy dogs or puppies as well. I am in a veterinary technician program that I do remotely, which gives me the flexibility to care for your pets any day of the week! I live in a house with an unfenced yard, therefore because safety is my top priority I will always walk your dog on a leash for potty breaks and outdoor sniffing- they will never be left unattended. I have the capacity to take your dog out for activities like beach walks or hikes, as well as just chilling or snuggling. Because of my schedule I can also accommodate frequent bathroom breaks and specific feeding times. I have a very sweet, friendly resident cat who loves company. We love hosting dogs who are already socialized and comfortable around cats! My only other ask is that your pup be potty trained :)
About: I’ve owned seniors dogs, puppies and everything in between. Jack Russell Terrier to English Mastiff. I’ve also owned cats with diabetes that required insulin daily, neurotic quirky animals we’ve had to adapt to, chickens, goats, sheep, bearded dragons and other reptiles. We are an active family. Hilo and Koa go most places with us. However, there are times he must stay home in his covered kennel, fenced yard or inside depending on weather. We enjoy the rhythm of our daily routines just as much as all of our animals. To keep it humming everyone works in concert sharing the load of responsibilities.

She did a fantastic job providing me with videos of him playing in her beautiful backyard, snuggling and napping. And really happy she had another dog for Enzo to play with. She walked him and played fetch. I would absolutely give Anusha five stars ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ she was also very friendly and nice. 👍 I am sure Enzo will be happy to be dropped off to be puppy-sat again sometime soon.”

About: I’ve been pet sitting for friends, relatives and clients for years. Our house is their pets’ second home when they travel or need us. I can do the same for you, too. During the weekend I am mostly home. Weekdays, I partially work from office and home. There is plenty of time to spend time with your pet or walk them frequently. My husband works from home full time, so there is always one or two adults at home. We live in a single house with a fenced backyard, and there is a big greenbelt right outside our backyard ( see images). Therefore it’s very convenient for frequent walks or play time for your pet. They can also meet other dogs as well. As a family, we are comfortable with being around furry friends. We volunteer with my daughters at a local farm cleaning, caring, patting…. Love it! Our own cat-Zeytin is very calm and friendly. We love to play, walk, cuddle, spend some quiet time with our pet and guest pets and will do the same with yours, too. Looking forward to meeting you and your pet! Nevin
“Hannah did a great job taking care of my pup Summer. She was available on short notice and communicated well about pickup and drop off. I could tell Summer had a fun time hanging out with the other dog she cared for. I would book her again!”

“It was such a delight for my chihuahua mix Maui to stay with Dipanjana and her husband and her cute dog Kulfi for the first time! Dipanjana was very proactive and thoughtful in preparing us for our first day care visit, letting Maui get familiarized with her dog and home, ahead of our daycare appointment, which I appreciated immensely since my dog has separation anxiety. She is relaxed and easy with communication and with Maui to make him feel at home like letting him sniff around, play with toys, or sit on her lap. She was also very on top of it with any instructions I had for his stay. Her home and neighborhood are also very clean and comfortable. It was so great to see Maui in pic updates and in good spirits when I picked him up and I look forward to another stay in the future soon!”

“I have asked Mary Ann to help with the care of our family dog twice now and both times she was responsive with booking, cleaning up an accident inside the house, giving meds and showing up in time frames requested. We are really grateful for her help and service.”

“Anna was wonderful in taking my dog, Haley, for walks when I was laid up with an issue with my foot. Anna let me know when she was on the way over, very on time, super nice upon meeting, great with introducing to my dog Haley and engaging with Haley, very sweet. I so appreciated Anna's help and would definitely reach out to Anna again when I need help.”

About: I am a long term animal lover and trainer. 20 years experience with larger dog breeds. I have a flexible schedule and excellent references. Many years experience with Cats too. Will provide care and feeding, exercise and play, grooming and clean up. Can handle multiple pets. rates flexible depending on type of pets, number of pets and if overnight. I have local references upon request. I am currently working part time, so I have lots of flexible time available to spend giving your dogs, cats and farm animals the very best of care! I provide a complete variety of pet services in your home. I am overly cautious about safety in and out of the home. I take extra precautions when walking your dog near other dogs and with allowing pets outdoors where wild predators can be nearby. I am very aware of other dogs and will not allow to approach unless previously known. My availability changes. Sometimes I work remotely from home doing business office support for clients. This affects the type of pet care assignments that I may accept due to logistics and pet needs. I care for pets in your home only and take dogs on outings and employ daily frequent play and walks. Your pets get lots of attention!

“We’ve never left our dog with anyone but immediate family and never with anyone for 12 days. Anusha managed our high energy dog perfectly and developed a rapport with him right away. She also managed my own anxiety by sending photos and videos twice daily to show me that our dog was relaxed and happy in her care. I can’t thank her enough for the care and attention she provided.”

“Our senior whippet stayed with Qi (wonderful dog sitter) for over a week, and the experience was exceptional. We received frequent updates and photos, which gave us total peace of mind and let us see how relaxed and happy he was. It was clear he was being cared for with genuine affection, patience, and attention to his needs as an older pup. We always felt he was safe, comfortable, and treated like family. We couldn’t be more grateful and highly recommend their services.”

“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.”

“This is the second time we hired Juliana to watch our dog, Maui, and we were very happy with her services. She's very communicative and shares updates and pictures regularly. Still highly recommend her and we look forward to a future booking with her.”

“Everything went smoothly despite my puppy’s high energy. Rachel and her husband offered a meet and greet, were curious about rules I have for my pet so they could adhere to them too, they gave her great exercise and an opportunity to play with their dogs, they are experienced and have a safe home, and it seems like my puppy just really liked it there. She came back tired and happy. I would rebook.”


“Nabil took wonderful care of Raisin for two days. It was Raisin’s first time staying away from home, so we were a little nervous, but Nabil and Sunny made her feel comfortable and safe. She quickly warmed up to them, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear that she was well cared for and treated with kindness. We truly appreciated the updates and the loving care Raisin received. I would highly recommend Nabil to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy pet sitter!”

“I couldn’t be happier with the care my dog received! She took such great care of my dog—always by her side, making sure she was never lonely. My dog got plenty of activities, fresh air, and attention every day. She even gave her a bath before returning her, and my dog came back refreshed, fluffy, and super happy! It’s clear she truly loves animals and treats them like her own. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a reliable and loving dog sitter!”

“Sofia was so welcoming to Luna and was very patient with her separation anxiety. She took such good care of Luna and sent a daily update with a picture. I felt very much at ease leaving Luna with Sofie knowing that she was being loved and cared for. I will book with Sofia for my next trip!”

“Debra is amazing! My dog Winter felt right at home the moment she arrived. Debra has a very large backyard for dogs to roam around and play. Her home was very clean, inviting and accommodating. She took my dog for several walks throughout the day and sent several pictures and updates. Debra is someone I trust completely and will always count on her for the future. I highly recommend Debra.”

“This is the 3rd time we leave Ty with Jennifer and her family. They are great! We feel very comfortable knowing she is around when we need! Super recommend! Looking forward for the next one!”

“Steve took great care of my dog and my dog loved being there. Steve kept me updated and sent me pictures of dog. Highly recommend Steve and will be rebooking with him for next time.”

“My husky, Koda, had a fantastic time with Valentina & Stephen and their dog Luke. He ran and played in their gigantic, beautiful yard, got lots of attention and cuddles and was taken to the park and restaurants with them. They took excellent care of Koda I can't recommend Val and Stephen more highly. I've already booked another stay for Koda!”

“Madhumita was wonderful with Bentley. She and her family took great care of him while we were away. She kept us updated with photos and he seemed so happy with them. We would recommend her to anyone and everyone!”

“Bruno & Katie were so good to work with! Very responsive, always sharing pictures and updates, and on top of that Jojo is a very well trained dog. Starki had a great time with them!”

“Nayana took care of Shiro with love and treated him like her family member. She followed all our instructions carefully and sent us important updates with photos throughout the care. Shiro seems happy and enjoyed the stay with her.”

“This is our first ever dog care experience and Quang was quickly responsive to my needs for last minutes plans. I have a super high energy GSP and and an elderly Porky. He cared for both needs and they returned home tired and happy. I also had to extend the time for care and he helped make that process very smooth. Thank you Quang! I’ll reach out for the next trip.”

“We booked with Jade because our regular sitter was out of town, but she (and her husband) may become our go to! She did a thorough meet and greet the day after we contacted her, and asked tons of great questions. She walked us through her home and yard so we saw where the pups would be (very uncommon in my experience, so I appreciated it). Their home was neat, nothing extra that the pups would get into potentially. I loved that they (and their beds) came home clean, there was only 1 additional dog (other than their 2 small ones) in their care, and they kept to our pups regular schedule. Jade and her husband take a very professional approach to their care, even though they both work and Rover is not their main gig. Thank you Jade, I’m glad we kept looking and found you. 😊 the pups loved hanging with them.”

“Son, her husband and children did a wonderful job looking after PENNY. As soon as I met the family, I knew she was in good hands. They gave her an immense amount of love and attention. She went on adventures with them throughout the Bay Area and coastal regions. She had so much fun that it was like sending a 12 year old to summer camp! I would highly recommend Son and her family to take care of your little dog or a big dog when the time comes. They are also my friends now.”

“Nadia was super sweet and loving with my fur baby. I was relieved because it was my first time leaving my dog with a Rover sitter. Nadia sent me multiple photos of my dog on a daily basis.”
