“We had such a wonderful experience with our dog sitter! She took amazing care of our two French Bulldogs and treated them like their own. I felt completely comfortable knowing they were in such caring and responsible hands. They kept me updated, gave them plenty of love and attention, and made sure they were happy and comfortable the entire time. It’s not easy leaving our two babies with someone, but this experience gave me complete peace of mind. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy, loving, and dependable dog sitter. We will definitely be using them again! ❤️🐾”
“What a wonderful experience for Buddy and me! It was an absolute joy to have Jaclyn care for my friend Buddy; from the texts I know Buddy was very very comfortable and well cared for. I would absolutely recommend Jaclyn to care for your pet, and I look forward to Buddy spending time with Jaclyn again.”
“DARLENE IS AMAZING!! This was barry’s first time boarding and we were pretty nervous & he was too especially the first night or so but by the end, I’m pretty sure he didn’t even want to go home lol. They treated him like he was apart of their family. Her daughters were super sweet to him. She’s super flexible, she even had a meet and greet w us prior to assure us everything. She also gave him a bath before we picked him up. I love how she would check in with me throughout the day and my favorite: she would send picture updates!! Darlene really cares for the dogs. She does also board, sits other doggies but rest assure: she will give your pup ALL the love & attention possible. Barry’s super excited to come back!”
“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!”
“We had a great experience! Juan & his family were incredibly accommodating, attentive, and easy to work with throughout the entire stay. They sent us lots of pictures and updates, and our dog looked happy and comfortable the whole time. We’ll definitely book again and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!”
“Debra did a great job of making us and our dog, Skye, feel welcome. She sent us daily updates with pictures of Skye with her family or out taking walks. She was a last minute provider for us as our usual care person was not available for the dates we needed. She only keeps one guest dog at a time. Skye and her dog, Ginger, got along well.”
“Bryan and Renee were absolutely wonderful with our 7 year old golden retriever, Leo! Our sitter fell through on NYE and they were able to watch him last minute. Our dog has a bit of anxiety around fireworks, and we really appreciated how they comforted him and made him feel safe in their home. They shared a photo and were very responsive to all messages. When we come back to San Francisco, it’s nice to know we have a trustworthy place for Leo to stay.”
“Stasha came through on a last min booking. She gave us updates every day, and Bruno was so happy in all the pics. She will definitely be our first choice next time Bruno needs a sitter.”
“JD is great. He is one of the best dog sitters we’ve ever had. He is a good communicator and answers all texts immediately and updates you with many pics at least twice a day. You’ll never be unsure whether or not your dog is being taken care of. He’s amazing with all breeds and understood what it takes to keep our English Bulldog clean and maintained (as all owners of wrinkly dogs know what the daily regimen entails). Whether it’s a short stay or a longer boarding, JD is someone to trust!”
“We just returned from a 10 day trip…we left our dog Buster with Tracey while we were away. She has always been great with our fur baby. Her daily updates and photos always give us peace of mind while we are away. I would definitely recommend Tracey to watch your dog!”
“Wendy was excellent with my dog & 2 cats. They took a liking to her right away. She always text me to let me know how my babies were doing. We will definitely be using her for our upcoming vacations. It was nice knowing that animals were definitely in great hands🩷”
“Angelina was an Angel and a life saver. I booked last minute and she responded immediately. Angelina was pleasant and very sweet. When meeting Onyx and Blue she asked all the right questions in order to provide the best care for my fur babies. Angelina sent pictures and kept me updated on all my babies activities. If you want your fur baby to be in a nurturing, safe, and fun home, Angelina is the caregiver for you.”
About: What sets me apart is the genuine care and attention I give every pet. I understand that every dog and cat has their own personality, routine, and comfort level, and I take the time to get to know them. I’m patient, dependable, and committed to making your pet feel safe, loved, and right at home. I also believe in keeping pet parents informed, so you can enjoy peace of mind while you’re away. Whether it’s a playful walk, a cozy cuddle, or simply sticking to their usual routine, I treat every pet as if they were my own. 🐾 I work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to give your pets plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m able to provide regular care, playtime, walks, and cuddles while keeping their routines as consistent as possible. Whether your dog needs a midday walk or your cat prefers a quiet check-in, I’m happy to accommodate their individual needs. I also understand that every pet is different, so I take the time to make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for while you’re away. 🐾 I believe pets deserve to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. Since I work from home, I’m able to provide a calm, attentive environment and give pets the care and companionship they need throughout the day. When caring for pets in their own home, I follow their usual routines as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, playtime, and medication instructions when needed. I also make sure they have fresh water, a clean space, and plenty of attention. I take the time to get to know each pet’s personality and comfort level, and I always prioritize their safety and well-being. I’m happy to provide updates and photos so you can feel confident knowing your furry family members are in good hands. 🐾
“Holly was absolutely amazing. Me and my fiance dropped off Maggie not knowing what to expect but she had a blast with plenty of room to run and sniff. We got multiple pictures every day especially super cute ones. I cannot sing her praise enough this was absolutely amazing and 11/10 would recommend.”
“Dipanjana was absolutely amazing with Rascal! I felt completely comfortable knowing he was in such good hands while I was away. She kept me updated and sent photos of Rascal, which I really appreciated. She was caring, dependable, and wonderful to work with. I highly recommend her and would definitely book with her again!”
“Gigi did a great job watching my Maltipoo dog for 10 nights. Her family provided a true home for our pup, and I’ll always be grateful! She took great care of him, and took him on multiple walks a day. She has went above and beyond by brushing his hair and teeth, cleaning his eyes, and giving him a bath. She provided a lot of photos and videos and his list of activities that day which made us feel relieved that my fur baby is in good hand and having fun. He came home clean, happy and content. Highly recommend for anyone looking to board their pup! Thanks again for taking such good care of Ethan :)”

I’ve been raised with all different types of animals and breeds and I wouldn’t want to have it any other way! I’m new to this site but definitely not new to animal experience. I’ve personally owned dogs ranging from chihuahuas to a bull mastiff pit bull mix, and I frequently care for others dogs. I’m not just limited to dogs I’m also a cat mom to 3!

About: I have many years of experience caring for animals. I have grown up with all types of cats ranging from sassy to sweet. I currently have a happy-go-lucky corgi who is friendly with cats, or I can provide pet care in your home. I understand that leaving your pets can be stressful, so I will be sure to send plenty of pictures while you are away.

I will be sure to provide gentle, loving pet care to ensure that your animal's needs are met while you are gone. I would love to watch your animals, so please reach out if you have any questions!
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is that I have taken care of many dogs. I’ve also had bunnies, hamsters, hermit crabs, birds growing up. My dog has also had babies. So I have experience in taking care of puppies because I helped my dog give birth. Pet care fits into my routine because I am currently enrolled in college and I am mostly just focusing on that right now. Being able to see some dogs for a few hours would be a great way to fit some exercise into my routine. I care for them by always being attentive and making sure they are loved and cared for. I also love walking and being with nature, so it would be fun to take out some new doggies for walks.
About: Over 20 years as a dog owner. I'm semi-retired. I've been watching friends' and friends of friends' pets for years. I've been the only house/dog sitter for a pair of Dalmatians for the last 5 years. I've handled puppies that are still working on becoming housebroken as well as senior dogs that need regular medication and extra care. I do in-home tech support/ IT work. When a customer's animals have warmed up to me, I've been asked if I did pet sitting as well. It feels good when the pet picks you. My working schedule is very flexible, I'm usuably able to adjust it to make sure I'm available to see to your pet's needs. If I commit to caring for your critters they will be my scheduling priority. I don't have pets in my own home. When house/pet sitting, besides feeding, walking and picking up after the pets I'm capable of handling household issues that might come up.
About: I have worked with animals for a very long time. I grew up with them and then I decided to study Veterinary care in college working with animals such as cattle, horses, dogs, cats, goats, chickens, and others. I worked at a grooming/boarding facility as well. I have trained my own dogs and some friends dogs. I have also raised puppies and worked with professional training to better my own dogs. I am a stay at home mom due to day care and I figured I have always loved animals, why not work with them? I am pretty much available all week. I have a fenced yard where my dogs roam, My dogs are crate trained and go out most of the day. I do walk them once or twice a day depending on the weather.

“Darlene was wonderful to my pups. They were happy and tired when they got home. We will call on Darlene again. They seemed to get along great with her small kids. Thank you we are very pleased. Bella,Sunny and mom &dad”
“My dogs had a great time! Thank you so much for being willing to take on my rescue pit bull. Not many doggy daycares are willing to let her attend. You guys are amazing with dogs! Thanks again!!”
“Bryan took very good care of Neeli. He asked for her schedule in detail. Gave updates, Neeli came back very happy. We will be happy to leave Neeli with them again.”
About: What separates me from other pet sitters is experience and attention to detail. I’m comfortable caring for dogs with a wide range of needs, including seniors, high-energy dogs, and those who require extra structure, patience, or consistency. I take the time to learn each dog’s routine, triggers, preferences, and training cues so care stays consistent with what they’re used to at home. I’m through about following care instructions, including feeding routines, medication, leash handling, and household rules. I pay close attention to behavior and body language and adjust care as needed to keep dogs comfortable and balanced. I also provide regular, thoughtful updates so owners always know how things are going. I provide care throughout the day to maintain your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible. Mornings typically include walks and potty breaks, breakfast, and any required medications. Midday care includes walks, enrichment, playtime, or quiet companionship depending on your pet’s needs. In the afternoon and early evening, I focus on additional walks or outdoor time, scheduled feedings, and appropriate activity or downtime. Evenings include a final potty break, dinner and medications if needed, and a relaxed wind-down period. I follow established schedules closely and provide regular updates so owners always know how their pets are doing. I have a fenced in backyard for lots of running and play time & a climate controlled inside. Dogs are never left alone and always supervised.
“JD is a godsend. Wish we had known him when Mina, my dog, was still a puppy. J provides us with excellent care for Mina and training which helps her be more confident and get along with other dogs. He is very understanding and flexible toward our work schedule. J cares for our dog just like his own. We can see how passionate and loving he is toward dogs in general and Mina in particular. J has a big heart for dogs and one of a kind. Highly recommend!!”
“Jennifer and her Family (human and fur) are a fantastic fit for Cleo. She is a high energy dog and comes home fully exhausted from her playdates with Jennifer, Rosey and their team! My husband told me it was the "perfect fit" for Cleo and us!”

About: Serving Aromas and surrounding area. As a lifelong animal lover with more than 25 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs, horses, emus, chickens, and even a feral cat colony, I understand that every animal deserves patience, compassion, and individualized care. My goal is simple: to provide a safe, loving, and enriching environment where your dog or cat can relax, play, and feel at home while you're away. Located on three beautiful acres in Aromas, California, my property offers a peaceful park-like setting with plenty of room to explore safely. Safety is my highest priority, and dogs are never left unattended outdoors. Every guest receives attentive supervision, plenty of exercise, and lots of affection throughout the day. Your dog's stay may include walks, nature hikes, supervised outdoor play, enrichment activities, cuddle time, and, for suitable dogs, adventures to local beaches and trails. Whether your dog is energetic and playful or prefers a quiet place to relax, I tailor care to their individual personality and needs. Inside, dogs and cats enjoy a spacious 2,800-square-foot home where they are welcomed as members of the family. They can lounge on comfortable furniture, sleep on the bed if permitted by their owners, or rest in their own crate if that is their normal routine. I share my home with my gentle 11-year-old pit bull, who gets along well with dogs, cats, and the farm animals on the property. Because I value safety and positive experiences for every guest, I carefully evaluate compatibility and strive to create a calm, stress-free environment. When your dog or cat stays with me, they're not staying in a kennel—they're joining a home filled with love, experience, and genuine respect for animals. My goal is for both you and your dog to enjoy complete peace of mind, knowing your family member is safe, happy, and cared for as if they were my own. I look forward to meeting you and your dog or cat. I also do ranch visits and have experience caring for goats, sheep, horses, chickens, and pigs. I'm semi-retired and take advantage of our beautiful central coast daily, either walking, hiking, or playing on the beach. We start our day in the morning with a nice sniff, play, or zoomie time on the property. After breakfast we'll do a walk on the beach, a hike (depending on your pet) or playtime on the property. My dog is getting older so he's usually good for about 3 miles and can't really do strenuous hikes. He loves the beach so we also take a late morning beach walk. Aromas also has a lovely dog park now, so if your pup is social that's a fun place to go. For more athletic dogs, there are some incredible hiking trails in this area. Afternoon chores start normally around 5, when I walk the property and feed and check on my goats and emus. This is more play time for your fur baby, as we watch the sunset and settle in for the night. Where does your pet sleep? They are welcome on the furniture or my bed. I also have extra dog beds for those pets who like their space. I have a completely fenced yard with plenty of space to roam. With the exception of a couple of 2-3 hour windows 2 to 3 days per week, your pet is never alone. I do have stairs so if your pet needs help going up and down, I will block the stairs so there are no accidents.
“I felt at ease leaving both of my pets with Sarah. She is very professional and communicated clearly and timely. She greeted my pets and I outside of her home and then gave us a tour of where my pets would spend time. She spent the time to allow my dog Roble to get acquainted with the space and other pets. She was very thorough in caring for my pets (i.e. feeding schedule, rest, petting and play time). I received plenty of updates as well. I will definitely utilize her services again!”

About: I have my own space with an easy to clean floor. I am very chill and and I'm located very near 101 and the Gilroy Outlets. I work as a in-home Care Service and I enjoy my work I worked hard enough to find time to take care of my kitten and the rest of world. Cat powers, woof! I usually let them free roam but if they have to be in the crate either you or I can use a crate for your services the usual clean floor and dog mats or dog trainer pads and kitty litter will be available respectively.
“Tracey is so great and loving to our two babies. She and her husband are so nice and they really look after our fur babies like their own. I cannot be more happy with how our fur babies feel and how I feel about Tracey. Look no further.”

Prices are estimates per walk for 1 dog. Pricing may vary based on your search and includes a booking fee of 11%.
About: I helped my mom with taking care of her dogs when I lived in Hawaii. I enjoyed taking care of dogs and helping taking them for a walk. I’ll do my best with taking care of your pets! I currently work part time once a week on Sundays from 2-6pm and I help with catering gigs sometimes. But from Mondays - Saturdays I can do dog walking from 9:00am - 7:00pm I live in a house with a big dog but she mainly stays outside and a inside orange cat who can be a bit of trouble maker sometimes.
About: Starting June 19th, 2026, I will be able to provide full time pet care if that is needed for more anxious pets! ———— I have extensive knowledge of exotic animals too! A bit about me: I have loved animals since I was a kid. I was a vet assistant at a local vet hospital. After working in the field for about 5 years, I wanted to try something else and transitioned to pet sitting. With my vet experience, I can spot subtle signs of illness, can give eye drops, oral medication, and injectable medications. Working at a vet hospital also means I worked with a wide array of different dog (and cat!) breeds and temperaments. Special accommodations can be made to ensure everyone’s safety (within reason). I am familiar with the more stubborn and hard headed breeds, even owning some of them in the past. I also have basic obedience training knowledge, so I can help with puppy training. I of course love all pets, but I have a special place in my heart for senior pets! You can guarantee patient and gentle care will be provided to them. Starting June 19th, 2026 I will be doing dog walking and pet sitting full time. Therefore, I will be able to accommodate most schedules, even for the more anxious and clingy pets out there. If your pet cannot be left alone for more than 4-5 hours, an additional fee will be added to the booking. You can rest easy knowing you pet will be treated like family in the comfort of their own home. For you — I can do some light housekeeping, bring in the mail/packages, and take care of any houseplants. Boarding clients can expect a tidy house and side yard potty access. 20-30 minute walk included per day. I can provide puzzle toys and frozen kongs on hot days with owner permission. Boarding requests are taken on a case by case basis, as I have two dogs of my own. They get along well with other dogs, but I would like to see how everyone interacts with each other before agreeing to anything. Boarded pets will also need proof of vaccination. As a pet owner myself, I know it can be hard entrusting your pet, as well as your home, to someone unfamiliar. My goal is to always keep your place looking as untouched as possible, if not better than how you left it. I have pet caregiver insurance as well, for additional piece of mind. Both your home and pets are covered.
About: I’ve owned dogs for over 10 years and currently have 3 of my own. Over the years I’ve become experienced in caring for dogs with special needs. I love that I can be that voice for them. I currently work Sun-Wed but available if you need a weekend off or you even just need a day to run errands. I’ll be glad to take care of your pet. I have a fenced yard as well as crates if needed. I do have 3 other dogs that just chill all day which one has special needs. There is also an influx of toys that they can choose from.
About: I'm very Familiar with both dogs and cats. Basic training and obedience. Puppies are the best.! Love taking dogs and cats for walks. I know cat walkers! It’s a thing.. I’m currently traveling in California looking for sitting opportunities and can be available anytime for any pet. I have home and pet sitting experience. I’m open any day of the week I’m traveling and can devote a 24/7 care for as long as needed. I enjoy playing with dogs and cats giving them the exercise that they need daily.
About: My love for dogs started early — at three years old with a dachshund named Pretzel (although toddler me called her “DoDo” because Pretzel was just too big of a word). 🐾 Since then, I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life and truly adore their unique personalities. I work full-time from home, so caring for your pup fits seamlessly into my day, with walks, playtime, attention, and plenty of tail-wagging fun included. I have a secure fenced yard, provide daily walks, constant supervision, and carefully follow your care instructions to ensure your dog feels safe, comfortable, and loved.
About: With over 15 years of experience caring for dogs, both personally and for clients, I understand how important it is to have someone you can trust with a member of your family. I have experience walking and caring for dogs of all sizes, from small breeds to large, strong dogs, and I always adjust my approach based on each dog’s personality, energy level, and comfort. I don’t look at dogs as just pets. I treat them like family and give them the same attention, patience, and care I would want for my own. Whether I’m taking your dog on a walk, stopping by for a potty break, feeding, playtime, or simply giving them some company while you’re away, my goal is to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I also know how reassuring it is for owners to receive updates, so I’m happy to provide photos and check-ins during visits. You can feel confident knowing your dog will be treated with genuine care, respect, and attention every time. Since I work from home, I have a lot of flexibility in my daily schedule, which makes pet care a great fit for my routine. I’m able to make time for walks and drop-in visits throughout the day without having to rush around a traditional work schedule or commute. I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs, so getting out for a walk, stopping by to check on them, or giving them some extra attention is something I look forward to. I’m available for morning, midday, afternoon, and evening visits depending on what works best for you and your dog. Because I’m home throughout the day, I can also be more flexible when plans change or when your dog needs a little extra attention. My goal is to make their routine feel as normal and comfortable as possible and to give them the same care and attention I would give my own. I know dogs are more than just pets, they’re family. When I care for your dog in your home, I’ll treat them with the same love, patience, and attention I would give my own. Whether it’s a walk, feeding, playtime, a potty break, or simply keeping them company, my goal is to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away.
About: One thing that makes my home different is that I intentionally only care for up to two guest dogs at a time. Unlike larger boarding setups, this means your dog receives the individual attention, affection, and supervision they deserve—not just another spot in a crowded home. I’ve been caring for animals for over 30 years and have loved them since I was five years old, when I got my first cat. Since then, I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all ages—from energetic puppies to sweet senior pets—and I’m comfortable with all breeds. I’ve also cared for many pets for family, friends, and Rover clients, giving me experience with a wide range of personalities and needs. Because I work remotely, I’m home for most of the day, so your pet won’t be left alone for long periods. My home is calm, safe, and full of love, playtime, cuddles, and walks. I’m also comfortable administering medication and pride myself on being reliable, patient, and attentive. I know every pet is different, so I take the time to learn their routine, personality, and preferences to help them feel comfortable and secure. My goal is simple: for your pet to feel like they’re staying with family while you’re away, and for you to have complete peace of mind knowing they’re receiving the care and attention they deserve. Because I work remotely, I’m home most of the day, which makes pet care a natural part of my daily routine. I start my mornings with a walk or playtime, and I take regular breaks throughout the day to give pets attention, cuddles, and outdoor time. Evenings are usually calm and cozy — perfect for a relaxing stroll or some quiet time together. My flexible schedule means I can easily adapt to your pet’s needs, whether that’s frequent walks, meal routines, or medication schedules. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, my goal is always the same — to make them feel safe, loved, and at ease. I follow each pet’s normal routine closely, including feeding times, walks, play, and rest, so their day feels familiar and stress-free. In my home, pets enjoy a calm, cozy space where they get plenty of cuddles, playtime, and outdoor walks. When I’m in a client’s home, I treat it with the same respect and care I would my own, keeping things tidy and peaceful while giving your pet lots of attention and affection. I also send regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your furry family member is happy and cared for.

About: Over 20 years as a dog owner. I'm semi-retired. I've been watching friends' and friends of friends' pets for years. I've been the only house/dog sitter for a pair of Dalmatians for the last 5 years. I've handled puppies that are still working on becoming housebroken as well as senior dogs that need regular medication and extra care. I do in-home tech support/ IT work. When a customer's animals have warmed up to me, I've been asked if I did pet sitting as well. It feels good when the pet picks you. My working schedule is very flexible, I'm usuably able to adjust it to make sure I'm available to see to your pet's needs. If I commit to caring for your critters they will be my scheduling priority. I don't have pets in my own home. When house/pet sitting, besides feeding, walking and picking up after the pets I'm capable of handling household issues that might come up.
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is that I have taken care of many dogs. I’ve also had bunnies, hamsters, hermit crabs, birds growing up. My dog has also had babies. So I have experience in taking care of puppies because I helped my dog give birth. Pet care fits into my routine because I am currently enrolled in college and I am mostly just focusing on that right now. Being able to see some dogs for a few hours would be a great way to fit some exercise into my routine. I care for them by always being attentive and making sure they are loved and cared for. I also love walking and being with nature, so it would be fun to take out some new doggies for walks.
About: My name is samantha, I love animals and I love to travel and im sure a lot of you do too. It is never fun leaving behind a family memeber but i'll make sure they are not only taken well care of, they'll have so much attention and fun they won't have time to miss you! Im comfortable giving medication, long walks, frequent updates, early trips to the dog park or late night trips. I can prepare a BARF meal or a kibble one. Ive worked with both cats and dogs, I always follow directions to last detail, your pets safety will be just as important if they were my own. Im very mello and relaxed, easy to get along with, and easy to reach.

“We had such a wonderful experience with our dog sitter! She took amazing care of our two French Bulldogs and treated them like their own. I felt completely comfortable knowing they were in such caring and responsible hands. They kept me updated, gave them plenty of love and attention, and made sure they were happy and comfortable the entire time. It’s not easy leaving our two babies with someone, but this experience gave me complete peace of mind. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy, loving, and dependable dog sitter. We will definitely be using them again! ❤️🐾”
“What a wonderful experience for Buddy and me! It was an absolute joy to have Jaclyn care for my friend Buddy; from the texts I know Buddy was very very comfortable and well cared for. I would absolutely recommend Jaclyn to care for your pet, and I look forward to Buddy spending time with Jaclyn again.”
“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!”
“We had a great experience! Juan & his family were incredibly accommodating, attentive, and easy to work with throughout the entire stay. They sent us lots of pictures and updates, and our dog looked happy and comfortable the whole time. We’ll definitely book again and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!”
“Debra did a great job of making us and our dog, Skye, feel welcome. She sent us daily updates with pictures of Skye with her family or out taking walks. She was a last minute provider for us as our usual care person was not available for the dates we needed. She only keeps one guest dog at a time. Skye and her dog, Ginger, got along well.”
“Bryan and Renee were absolutely wonderful with our 7 year old golden retriever, Leo! Our sitter fell through on NYE and they were able to watch him last minute. Our dog has a bit of anxiety around fireworks, and we really appreciated how they comforted him and made him feel safe in their home. They shared a photo and were very responsive to all messages. When we come back to San Francisco, it’s nice to know we have a trustworthy place for Leo to stay.”
“Stasha came through on a last min booking. She gave us updates every day, and Bruno was so happy in all the pics. She will definitely be our first choice next time Bruno needs a sitter.”
“JD is great. He is one of the best dog sitters we’ve ever had. He is a good communicator and answers all texts immediately and updates you with many pics at least twice a day. You’ll never be unsure whether or not your dog is being taken care of. He’s amazing with all breeds and understood what it takes to keep our English Bulldog clean and maintained (as all owners of wrinkly dogs know what the daily regimen entails). Whether it’s a short stay or a longer boarding, JD is someone to trust!”
“We just returned from a 10 day trip…we left our dog Buster with Tracey while we were away. She has always been great with our fur baby. Her daily updates and photos always give us peace of mind while we are away. I would definitely recommend Tracey to watch your dog!”
“Angelina was an Angel and a life saver. I booked last minute and she responded immediately. Angelina was pleasant and very sweet. When meeting Onyx and Blue she asked all the right questions in order to provide the best care for my fur babies. Angelina sent pictures and kept me updated on all my babies activities. If you want your fur baby to be in a nurturing, safe, and fun home, Angelina is the caregiver for you.”
About: What sets me apart is the genuine care and attention I give every pet. I understand that every dog and cat has their own personality, routine, and comfort level, and I take the time to get to know them. I’m patient, dependable, and committed to making your pet feel safe, loved, and right at home. I also believe in keeping pet parents informed, so you can enjoy peace of mind while you’re away. Whether it’s a playful walk, a cozy cuddle, or simply sticking to their usual routine, I treat every pet as if they were my own. 🐾 I work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to give your pets plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m able to provide regular care, playtime, walks, and cuddles while keeping their routines as consistent as possible. Whether your dog needs a midday walk or your cat prefers a quiet check-in, I’m happy to accommodate their individual needs. I also understand that every pet is different, so I take the time to make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for while you’re away. 🐾 I believe pets deserve to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. Since I work from home, I’m able to provide a calm, attentive environment and give pets the care and companionship they need throughout the day. When caring for pets in their own home, I follow their usual routines as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, playtime, and medication instructions when needed. I also make sure they have fresh water, a clean space, and plenty of attention. I take the time to get to know each pet’s personality and comfort level, and I always prioritize their safety and well-being. I’m happy to provide updates and photos so you can feel confident knowing your furry family members are in good hands. 🐾
“Holly was absolutely amazing. Me and my fiance dropped off Maggie not knowing what to expect but she had a blast with plenty of room to run and sniff. We got multiple pictures every day especially super cute ones. I cannot sing her praise enough this was absolutely amazing and 11/10 would recommend.”
“Gigi did a great job watching my Maltipoo dog for 10 nights. Her family provided a true home for our pup, and I’ll always be grateful! She took great care of him, and took him on multiple walks a day. She has went above and beyond by brushing his hair and teeth, cleaning his eyes, and giving him a bath. She provided a lot of photos and videos and his list of activities that day which made us feel relieved that my fur baby is in good hand and having fun. He came home clean, happy and content. Highly recommend for anyone looking to board their pup! Thanks again for taking such good care of Ethan :)”
“I just wanted to give a huge shoutout to Yolanda for taking such amazing care of my dog while I was away! 🐾❤️ From the moment we met, I could tell my pup was in great hands. Yolanda was not only professional and reliable but also incredibly kind, patient, and loving with my dog. I got regular updates, adorable photos, and total peace of mind knowing my dog was happy, safe, and well cared for. It’s never easy leaving your pet behind, but Yolanda made it feel effortless. I came home to a calm, happy dog—and that says it all. If you're looking for someone trustworthy and genuinely passionate about animals, I can't recommend Yolanda enough!”
“Adriana and family were awesome. Super glad that she came through to help us at the last minute. Bruno had plenty of room to play and run around with the farm style home. Blessed that we found another option to take care of Bruno. Thank you Adrian and Family for watching Bruno Tenoche.”
About: Hi, I’m Maria! I believe that pets aren't just animals—they are cherished members of the family. When your pet stays with me, they receive the exact same level of deep compassion, endless cuddles, and focused attention that I give to my own. I am experienced with dogs, birds, and rabbits. I share my home with a wonderfully chatty, smaller-sized Siberian Husky named Fuschia. She loves to "talk," but she is trained, incredibly friendly, gentle, and absolutely adores playing with new furry friends. Other than being a chatty Cathy, Fuschia is the anti-husky- preferring to sleep and chill than having high energy. Whether your dog wants a playmate or just a buddy to lounge near, my husky is an excellent, welcoming host. I work from home full-time with a flexible schedule, meaning your pet will rarely be alone and will receive frequent potty breaks, supervised playtime, and all the affection they can handle. ------------------------------ 🩺 Experience & Special Skills I'm a lifelong pet lover who has owned or taken care of pets since childhood. I've owned tiny dogs (chihuhuas and terrier mixes), a large wild dog that needed extensive training (a wolf-husky hybrid), birds, a rabbit, and have helped friends take care of their exotic animals (snakes and lizards). I’ve been dog sitting for approximately ten (10) years. I have enjoyed sitting small dogs to giant doodles (who believe they are small lap dogs) as well as elderly and special needs dogs. I’m a true animal lover and offer comprehensive care tailored to your pet's specific life stage and health requirements: * From Puppies to Seniors: I understand the patience and frequent training breaks required for tiny puppies, as well as the gentle pacing, orthopedic comfort, and slow walks needed for elderly dogs. * Medical & Sick Dog Care: If your dog requires special medical attention, you can rest easy. I am highly experienced in administering oral and topical medications, managing strict dosing schedules, feeding according to strict dietary needs, and providing a calm, stress-free environment for dogs. * Small Animal Expertise (Birds & Rabbits): I don’t just care for dogs! As a prior bird and rabbit owner, I am fully experienced in handling, feeding, cage or pen cleaning, and understanding the unique requirements of rabbits and birds. ------------------------------ 🏡 My Home & Safety Setup Your pet’s safety and peace of mind are my absolute top priorities. * Dog Play Areas: Dogs have plenty of room to stretch their legs, curl up on a couch, and run around and play inside the house and in my secure fenced in yard. When they play with my husky they will be always be supervised. *Sleeping: When it’s time to sleep your dog will sleep in a crate inside the house to ensure they are safe and secure while they are resting. * Sanitation & Routines: I’ll adhere to your feeding schedules. I’ll take your dog for a walk and can bathe them if requested. ** Separate, Stress-Free Zone for small animal friends: To ensure a calm and secure environment, all guest birds and rabbits are kept in a completely separate room away from any dogs in the house. They will enjoy a quiet, predator-free space where they can feel safe and be nurtured. During the week, I work from home and have a flexible shift that ends in the early afternoons. On weekends, I'm home, and your fur baby will get plenty of walks and playtime. I live in a gated community in Morgan Hill and have a securely fenced yard for your dog to run and play. I keep the dogs in the house when I'm working, and there are plenty of couches for the dogs to curl up on and nap. At night, the dogs sleep in a crate inside the house. I'd prefer to use your crate to make your dog feel more at home, but I have a small and large crate available for dogs that don't have one. Small Animals (birds and rabbits) are kept in a separate room the entire stay. They will not have any interaction with any dog in the house.
