“We were worried that our Mimi would be very anxious away from us - but she fit right in to Deborah’s home and we were able to enjoy our time away knowing she was truly cared for. Deborah was great at communication too and seeing Mimi’s smiles in the pictures was wonderful. Definitely will ask Deborah again if the need arises. Thank you!”
“Emily was wonderful! We arranged a meeting in advance to give my dog a chance to see the space and place. Then Emily was flexible with timing as we firmed up plans. She took great care of Aubrey and her dog Gigi was a super pal for Aubrey.”
“Bianca is fantastic! We have a senior dog and Bianca goes above and beyond to make her feel comfortable. After our dog’s first stay with her, we immediately booked our next one with her because of how great she is. Our dog is clearly so much happier staying with Bianca than when we used to take her to the kennel. Highly recommend!”
“We cannot recommend Lori and Frank more highly. This was Daisy’s very first time with a pet sitter, and as a rescue pup she can be a bit nervous in new situations. From the moment we met them, Lori and Frank immediately made her feel comfortable—not just with them, but also with their wonderful adult children. They took exceptional care of Daisy and truly made her part of their family. Thanks to their calm, loving environment, Daisy even gained the confidence to make a new doggy friend with another pet guest during her stay, which meant so much to us. We loved receiving regular updates and photos, and it was clear every step of the way that Daisy was happy, relaxed, and well cared for. Leaving your dog for the first time is never easy, but Lori and Frank made the entire experience completely stress-free. We are so grateful for the love and attention they gave Daisy and would trust them again without hesitation.”
“We were very happy with the care our dog received. Mila was communicative, attentive to our instructions, and clearly took great care of our dog while we were away. It gave us real peace of mind knowing everything was being handled so well. We’re grateful to have found someone we can trust and would gladly book with her again.”
About: Hello! I have cared for animals of every kind since I was able to hold a leash, brush a cat, and collect chicken eggs. I'm a Mill Valley mom, educator, and current owner of two sweet Cavalier King Charles Spaniels. I have owned cats, dogs, chickens, rodents and birds. I keep bees as an active beekeeper. I am experienced with medically fragile animals and am comfortable giving all meds, including subcutaneous fluids. I have fostered for years with Marin Humane and Milo as well as professionally pet sitting through Trusted House Sitters and Home Exchange in addition to Rover. My home is warm, safe, child and animal friendly. My yard is fenced and my children (ages 8 and 14) love share in the caring of animals. We all care deeply about animals and will give yours all the love they need. We would love to have your dogs join our pack for awhile! I am an educator and off for the summer. I have plenty of time to care for your pets along with my own. My kids and I stay local and have adventures and relaxing downtime all summer long. I have a large, fenced yard that includes hill side. My house is warm, cozy, pet and kid friendly. My dogs sleep on my bed and I'm fine if yours want to also. We love neighborhood walks and throwing balls in the backyard.
“Ellen is amazing. Excellent communication. Clearly wonderful at her work. Left my new and very petite puppy with her and picked up a super happy little girl. Your dog will be in great hands! :)”
“Christian was great taking care of our little Fig. He was very prompt at responding to our last-minute request and was a good communicator overall. It sounds like he has a lot of experience taking care of a variety of breeds. We will definitely be using Christian again!”
“Lillie was wonderful, and I would highly recommend her! It was our first time leaving Bear with her- she sent lots of photos and videos which gave us peace of mind. Bear has issues with anxiety but came home a very happy boy! Thank you Lillie!”
“Nadya is an absolute gem!! Trustworthy, knowledgeable, a great communicator, and easy to work with! She kept us updated and sent photos each day. We were able to enjoy our vacation so much thanks to her incredible care :)”
“I was a bit anxious if my dog Shanti would be doing fine at a sitter's place as it was my first time away from her in almost 2 years. But it seems she really enjoyed staying with Kyle and her pup Frankie! Kyle took great care of her and sent lots of happy pics and videos every day (on Halloween day, she even put a cute costume on Shanti ?). She was also responsive before and during the stay. I highly recommend her.”
About: I'm the friend who everyone asks to take care of their dog (including senior dogs). I love our furry friends—and appreciate every families trust. I raised a Bichon puppy and later cared for her as a 12 year old senior dog.

I have a super clean home. The dogs are allowed everywhere. I have a very clean, safe home. I also have access to popular dog parks/walks.

Every pup in my care receives the same love and attention my dog gets, regular potty breaks, and plenty of blankets to make them feel at home!
“Alex was such a warm, caring & communicative sitter for my Ringo. After a quick meet and greet before his boarding stay, I had no doubt Ringo was going to be so happy with her, as well as her gorgeous little Chowder. She sent me photo updates each day, took Ringo out on hiking adventures and lots of love and care. I’ll definitely be booking her again and highly recommend!”

“Mary was absolutely wonderful with Kona. She was also incredibly understanding when our needs changed and her flexibility was very much appreciated. Kona came home tired and happy and we will certainly use her in the future.”
“Awesome sitter! Super easy to work with, great communication, and sent photo updates. Scouty was in great hands and came home happy and tired (in the best way). Would highly recommend!”
“Sara was outstanding at taking care of our beagle for a week, despite us asking her last minute. She dealt with an issue where our dog had a potty training relapse and solved the problem by getting diapers. She gave our sweet girl lots of playtime outdoors at the dog park and beach. Sara is clearly an experienced dog sitter who takes great care of her customers. Thank you Sara!”

“We were very fortunate to find Sophie. This was the first time we’ve left Pip with someone else for the day. Spending the day with Sophie and her sweet dog Holly in her lovely home was like a dream play date for Pip. We had no worries whatsoever. If the little guy could talk, I think he would be asking to go back to Sophie and Holly’s house.”

About: I have extensive experience babysitting for families with children of all ages, which has made me highly responsible, patient, attentive, and great at handling different personalities and routines. I also have reliable transportation and a valid driver’s license, making me flexible and dependable for walks, drop-ins, or last-minute needs.

I’m usually up early, making mornings great for walks, feedings, or check-ins, and I have availability throughout the afternoon and evenings for longer visits, playtime, exercise, or overnight care.

About: I grew up around all kinds of animals and I’ve cared mostly for dogs on the smaller side, but I am good with bigger dogs too. I have some beginner training experience as well. I’m currently working only as a pet caregiver so I have plenty of time to tend to your pet! I have class on Thursdays from 5:30 to 8:30 PM. I live in a very dog friendly apartment building.

“Thanks marissa, I was able to work all day and not worry about my pup being taken care of, especially on a holiday. She was quick to respond and I appreciated her positive attitude. I definitely would use her again.”
“Amber was great! She took the trouble to come over for a "meet and greet" with Leo and Bailey the day before her job, which not only established a relationship in advance but gave us a chance to discuss the drill with them in unrushed fashion, ahead of time. Amber has a great chill way with dogs and is a reliable and cheerful person to work with. Would definitely use again.”

About: Hey, pup friend! I am so excited to meet and love on your pup. I am a UX/UI designer with a nonprofit and I work from home, so whether your dog needs a buddy for the weekend or a work day, I’ve got you covered. I have one sweet pup, Potato, a mini Australian labradoodle who never met a friend he didn't love - human or doggo or otherwise. If you're looking for a personalized boarding experience where your pet gets excellent care and comes back as happy-tired as after a full day at the dog park, I’m your gal. I love taking dogs on hikes near Mount Tam and to the beach when we're on our turf and I firmly believe in the importance of treats and scratchies. I live in an apartment by a dog-friendly beach so we’ll definitely be playing at the playa. I follow your rules so your pet has the same high caliber of care here as at their home. I offer flexible drop-off and pick-up times from 8 am to 8 pm. I take my pup on a daily walk and play with him pretty much constantly whenever he’s not snoozing. Please keep in mind, I only board pups over a year old and cannot board dogs who are not fully potty trained or who need to be taken out more frequently than every 3 hours to potty. I like to follow the rules you've established for your pets - if they aren't allowed on furniture, I’ll make sure that stays. If they are, they're welcome to snuggle on the couch with us. I work from home and take my dog to the beach daily as well as on frequent walks and hikes. We are pretty flexible around here! In my home, we follow your rules. Potato is used to snuggling on rye couch during movie night and on the bed overnight. We welcome snuggle buddies! I am home most of the day working so pets get LOTS of attention and love.
About: Hi there! I’m a dedicated and trustworthy pet sitter who truly understands that your pets are family. Whether it’s energetic dogs, independent cats, or a mix of both, I take pride in providing attentive, loving care tailored to each pet’s unique personality and needs. In my photos I have screenshotted a few reviews I have gotten on a different dog care platform. It is a joint account with my partner and we have had over ten house sits and have received 5 stars all around! The consistent positive feedback reflected on that profile shows not only my ability to care for both cats and dogs, but also my respect for clients’ homes—keeping everything clean, secure, and exactly as you left it. I understand the level of trust it takes to leave your pets and home in someone else’s hands, and I don’t take that responsibility lightly. I work from home, which allows me to provide consistent supervision, companionship, and flexible care throughout the day. I also have experience administering medication, so you can feel confident that your pet’s health routines will be handled safely and responsibly. As someone who loves being outdoors and staying active, I’m especially happy to take dogs on walks, hikes, and adventures suited to their energy level. Whether it’s playtime, cuddles, or sticking to a structured routine, I’m here to make sure your pets feel safe, happy, and loved. You can count on me for reliable communication, regular updates, and plenty of photos so you always feel connected while you’re away. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family! I work remote east coast hours so my schedule is very flexible and I am up bright and early. I’m a very active individual and make an effort to be outside as much as possible. I have very few meetings since my work is more project based so it’s so nice to have a buddy to be my shadow or to cuddle with during breaks!! Please refer to my TrustedHousesitters profile for reviews on my visits in the last year. In my home, I create a clean, pet-friendly space that’s secure, comfortable, and free of hazards, with plenty of supervision throughout the day since I work from home. I’m mindful of routines, feeding schedules, and individual needs to help pets feel settled and stress-free. In my clients’ homes, I prioritize maintaining your pet’s normal routine and environment to minimize anxiety while also respecting your space—keeping things tidy, secure, and exactly as you left them. I use safe walking practices, stay attentive during all interactions, and always keep a close eye on behavior and health. My goal is to provide a consistent, trustworthy presence so both you and your pets feel completely at ease.

About: I adore dogs! I have cared for many pets and homes throughout my life, from small dogs and puppies to Brittanys and Labs. I am very experienced in walking dogs, playing with them, and providing their basic food and water needs. I genuinely love dogs, and can't get enough of them. I have also cared for birds, fish, and other small pets such as hamsters and Guinea pigs. I am an expert caretaker of homes, both apartments and houses. I have served as a long-term housesitter for friends and families, and while I am not a homeowner, I have rented numerous houses and cared for them meticulously. I also absolutely love gardening and am quite experienced, so I am more than happy to provide gardening and landscaping maintenance. I am a professor, so I have a lot of flexibility in the summer months until mid to late August. During the summer months, I teach a bit and do some activities, but I am able to be home as much as needed to care for pets. I am careful and conscientious with pets. I make sure they have enough to eat, drink, and enough exercise. I am good at taking dogs on walks, and I follow owners' instructions to the letter.
“Thomas has been a life saver for us with our dog Guinness. He is always on time, he is reliable, he is patient with our somewhat moody, large dog, and he has become our regular walker 3x per week. Thomas is super responsive to messages and seems to genuinely enjoy spending time with Guinness. I highly recommend Thomas !”
About: Hi, I’m Alex! Dogs have been part of my whole life — I grew up on a farm where we always had a pack of them around, learned early on how to read a dog's body language, energy, and needs. As an adult, I've channeled that into being a dog mom as well as fostering rescue dogs — helping them decompress, build trust, and find their footing — and also spending years caring for elderly dogs with the patience and gentleness they need. Now I'm a mom of 3 kids and 1 dog in Marin County. With a new baby and a serious need to get outside every day, walking dogs is my most perfect answer — and your dog gets a genuinely experienced, gentle, fully present walker who loves this as much as they do. I look forward to getting out on the trail or taking to the cool pavement with your pup and getting to know their unique needs and walking wants. Accepting small to medium size dog requests for walking. Let me know if you’d like to connect. I’m walking dogs for about an hour every day to get outside with my new baby and some furry friends. Fitness and fresh air for everyone! My environment of care I expect to provide will generally be the gentle neighborhood hike or neighborhood walk. I only walk one dog at a time, so this is a calming and personal experience for them. I may also have my baby with me so he can enjoy the outside from his carrier.
About: I have loved animals all my life. I have a special place in my heart for all animals. I have owned and taken care of animals for 40 years. I have a way about myself that puts animals on ease and makes them feel welcome. I can not wait to take the best care of your loved and cherished pet. Thank you for your consideration. I am currently on a sabbatical so I have plenty of time to pet sit. I am available weekends, evenings, and mornings. I am available for long-term arrangements. I have a small fenced yard and I love to go on long walks. I give pets lots off affection and attention if they want it. I also just let them relax if that is what they need. Either way I am a very attentive caretaker.
“Rachel is very conscientious and you can see she really cares about the wellbeing of my dogs. She is comfortable handling my slightly reactive but otherwise docile pack. I would get her again.”

About: I grew up on a farm in Australia and I’m a lifelong dog lover with a rescue dog of my own. I have shelter volunteer experience in which I’ve been trained to handle a variety of dog breeds and temperaments. It would be my pleasure to take care of your dog as I would my own! I love to run also so feel free to request some extra speed on the walks for high energy pups! I work remotely as a software engineer with a flexible schedule. I’m usually busy with meetings early morning but after that I’m all yours! Weekends can be less predictable but happy to work in times with some notice. I’m a shelter volunteer so have been trained in how to create safe environments and identify risk factors. I will always put the dogs well being first and take on board all requests and advice from the owners.
About: Dogs have always been a part of my life, and I genuinely care for every dog as if they were my own family. I've had the joy of owning both a tiny Chihuahua and a gentle Great Dane, giving me firsthand experience with dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and energy levels. In addition, I volunteer as a dog walker for Guide Dogs for the Blind, where I regularly walk dogs with unique personalities, training needs, and routines. This experience has taught me the importance of patience, consistency, and understanding each dog's individual needs. Integrity and compassion are at the heart of everything I do. Whether we're out for a walk, enjoying playtime, or simply keeping your dog company, you can trust that they'll receive attentive, loving care and be treated with the same kindness, respect, and attention I would give my own pets. My goal is to give you peace of mind, knowing your furry family member is safe, happy, and truly cared for every step of the way. My schedule is very flexible, allowing me to accommodate my clients' needs and, whenever possible, walk their dogs at their usual times to help maintain a consistent routine. I treat every client's home with the utmost respect and care, just as I would my own. I'm happy to accommodate your household preferences and routines, whether that's setting or disarming an alarm system, following a shoes-off policy, or honoring any other instructions that help your home run smoothly. I'm also experienced with crating and feeding dogs, and I'm comfortable administering medications when needed. My goal is to make both you and your dog feel safe, supported, and well cared for.

“We were worried that our Mimi would be very anxious away from us - but she fit right in to Deborah’s home and we were able to enjoy our time away knowing she was truly cared for. Deborah was great at communication too and seeing Mimi’s smiles in the pictures was wonderful. Definitely will ask Deborah again if the need arises. Thank you!”
“Bianca is fantastic! We have a senior dog and Bianca goes above and beyond to make her feel comfortable. After our dog’s first stay with her, we immediately booked our next one with her because of how great she is. Our dog is clearly so much happier staying with Bianca than when we used to take her to the kennel. Highly recommend!”
“We were very happy with the care our dog received. Mila was communicative, attentive to our instructions, and clearly took great care of our dog while we were away. It gave us real peace of mind knowing everything was being handled so well. We’re grateful to have found someone we can trust and would gladly book with her again.”
About: Hello! I have cared for animals of every kind since I was able to hold a leash, brush a cat, and collect chicken eggs. I'm a Mill Valley mom, educator, and current owner of two sweet Cavalier King Charles Spaniels. I have owned cats, dogs, chickens, rodents and birds. I keep bees as an active beekeeper. I am experienced with medically fragile animals and am comfortable giving all meds, including subcutaneous fluids. I have fostered for years with Marin Humane and Milo as well as professionally pet sitting through Trusted House Sitters and Home Exchange in addition to Rover. My home is warm, safe, child and animal friendly. My yard is fenced and my children (ages 8 and 14) love share in the caring of animals. We all care deeply about animals and will give yours all the love they need. We would love to have your dogs join our pack for awhile! I am an educator and off for the summer. I have plenty of time to care for your pets along with my own. My kids and I stay local and have adventures and relaxing downtime all summer long. I have a large, fenced yard that includes hill side. My house is warm, cozy, pet and kid friendly. My dogs sleep on my bed and I'm fine if yours want to also. We love neighborhood walks and throwing balls in the backyard.
“Ellen is amazing. Excellent communication. Clearly wonderful at her work. Left my new and very petite puppy with her and picked up a super happy little girl. Your dog will be in great hands! :)”
“Lillie was wonderful, and I would highly recommend her! It was our first time leaving Bear with her- she sent lots of photos and videos which gave us peace of mind. Bear has issues with anxiety but came home a very happy boy! Thank you Lillie!”
“Nadya is an absolute gem!! Trustworthy, knowledgeable, a great communicator, and easy to work with! She kept us updated and sent photos each day. We were able to enjoy our vacation so much thanks to her incredible care :)”
About: Warm dog mom to a 13-year-old dachshund! I provide a structured, fun, and cozy environment with potty breaks every two hours and plenty of walks I'm home full time as I transition to my next job in the Bay Area. I can help with overnight stays, walks and general dog care! In my home, I provide a structured, cozy, and safe environment for pets. I have a small patio with no escape route, ensuring a secure outdoor space. When walking dogs, I’m highly aware of my surroundings to keep them protected at all times. I do not crate my own dog, but I’m happy to do so if that’s your preference. Every pup in my care receives the same love and attention my dog gets, regular potty breaks, and plenty of blankets to make them feel at home!
“Mary was absolutely wonderful with Kona. She was also incredibly understanding when our needs changed and her flexibility was very much appreciated. Kona came home tired and happy and we will certainly use her in the future.”
“Awesome sitter! Super easy to work with, great communication, and sent photo updates. Scouty was in great hands and came home happy and tired (in the best way). Would highly recommend!”
“Our dog had an amazing time with Diana! We got frequent updates on their fun adventures from the dog parks to running around her house and helping with homework (lol), and much more! Honestly our dog has been so well behaved after spending ~6 days with Diana. Highly recommend to everyone!”
“My dog had the BEST time with Annelies! She did a great job updating me with photos and texts on how my dog was doing. I feel like my dog really had the royal treatment- lots of love and long walks. Highly recommend, and I’ll definitely use her services again.”
“Rosa and Kevin were great with Lily and we would highly recommend them. They were also very accommodating when we were delayed a bit for the pick-up. We would definitely book another stay with them!”
“Drake had such a wonderful time with Tula. I loved the updates throughout his stay, which gave me comfort knowing he settled in ok and was having a good time. Would definitely recommend her to anyone needing their dog watched, especially since Drake can be reactive to strangers and other dogs. She was very understanding and handled him with a ton of care.”
“Matt and Amanda were absolutely wonderful with my dog! They were kind, attentive and kept me updated with messages and photos throughout the stay. My dog came home happy and relaxed - I could tell that she was really well cared for. I'd definitely book with them again and highly recommend to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving sitter!”
“Sylvie was terrific from the day we contacted her to the day Caramel came home. She always responded quickly and kindly to our questions and requests. She took many pictures with Caramel in the pro and during the walks. Highly recommend.”
“Our pup had a great time with Kim and his wife! They went for a few local hikes and hung out by the pool. Communication was super easy. Happy to have Kim watch our pup again anytime.”
“Our Luna girl stayed with Adam and Julie for over a week and this was herfirst stay with them. We did do a meet and greet a couple months before the actual stay so we had an idea if Luna liked Adam and Julie. Luna is normally a fairly reactive young puppy like adolescent with frequent barking and lungeing at people and dogs that distress her which can be many people and dogs. We went to their home for the meet and greet and Luna was fairly comfortable with Adam and Julie right off the bat. That was definitely a good sign. Two months later and Luna now 2 months older and more mellow has her stay with Adam and Julie. We picked Luna up after our trip and she was happy, playful, and reacted like she had a good stay. Julie and Adam gave us a full report and it seems everything went well. We got a daily picture of Luna sent via text which made us very happy to connect with her. Thanks to Adam and Julie for taking good care of our girl while we were on vacation.”
