“This was our 2nd time with Alex and Bri and we are so happy that the pups have found their home away from home. They treat our dogs like they are their own and send pictures over frequently during their stay. I hate to say it but I think one of them wishes they were still there. I highly recommend them!”
“Five star +++ experience. I almost hate to leave a review because we want them all to ourselves! Lori & Frank treated my dogs like their own — they showered them with love and attention and took exceptional care of them. They sent adorable pictures and kept me updated (without being annoying about it) while I was out of the country for 9 days. They have a lovely cozy dog-friendly home, and a very nice fully fenced yard. They are both super kind dog lovers and also responsible adults so you can feel comfortable leaving your beloved pooch or pooches in their care. Just the best.”
“Dustin was awesome. He is very attentive to the dogs and was completely engaged with them. Our two pups had an amazing time especially being able to enjoy the wide open spaces of Dustin’s vast property. It was a social adventure and they came back better for it. Thank you Dustin from both Avi & Daniel!”
“Great sitter. We were a bit nervous at first cuz our dog has some bad tendencies but she was great at controlling his leash aggression and kept us updated the whole time. Really great experience overall!”
“Tamara was a great host for our dog Pikachu! She sent pictures throughout his stay and went above and beyond to make him comfortable. We were able to fully relax knowing he was in good hands. We will definitely use her for boarding in the future.”
“Ashish was amazing. This was our pup’s first boarding, and I was very nervous. He reassured me that everything was going to be ok. He also sent us photos through out the visit! He was super accommodating on pick up time as well. Would ABSOLUTELY bring my dog back here if I needed boarding again!”
“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.”
“Shayla & Jacob were great communicators. They responded a timely manor. My puppies (5 months and just over a year) were well taken care of. We set up a meet and greet they took the time to listen to me and understand what my puppies needed they did not rush me at all I would definitely leave my puppies with them again. Not only are they lovely people but have a beautiful family”
“Our dog had a wonderful stay! Alexis took great care of him in her home, sent updates and photos, and it was clear he was comfortable and happy the whole time. We felt at ease knowing he was in such good hands. We will absolutely book with her again — thank you for taking such great care of Chauncey! :)”
“Hsiaolei provided Lulu the absolute best attention and care. They were extremely attentive to her needs, taking her on loads of hikes because she is an energetic dog. The photos she sent us during our time away showed Lulu visibly smiling, whether on her pad by the fire or out on a walk. I highly recommend Hsiaolei!”
“It was a roller-coaster at first, previous bookie canceled at the last moment so we had to scramble to find another sitter, flight was leaving in 2hrs. She accepted we have never been separated longer than a work day. Anna was/IS great!! She took great care of Aries sent plenty of pix and had us at ease!! Definitely will be booking her again”
“Robert sent updates everyday and I knew Riley and Luma were spoiled at his house. Riley is a senior and needs eye drops twice a day, Robert was understanding and provided what she needed.”
About: I grew up with dogs and know firsthand how much they become part of the family. Our beloved dogs, Bonbon and Bambii, were like siblings to me, and I loved spending time with them on walks, hikes, and playtime adventures. Although I don't currently have pets of my own, I miss that special connection and would love the opportunity to care for and spend time with your furry companions. I also have experience looking after my sister's dog, Toast, and always enjoy giving pets the attention, exercise, and affection they deserve. I will treat your pets with the same love and care I would give my own. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time outdoors and being around animals. I love starting my mornings with a walk, hike, or run, and I'm available between 6:00 AM and 8:00 AM for dogs who need exercise, fresh air, and attention before the day begins. In the evenings, I enjoy going on walks after work, usually from 7:00 PM onward. This gives me dedicated time to focus on your pet, whether that means a relaxing walk, playtime, or simply keeping them company. Having grown up with dogs and caring for my sister's dog, Toast, I understand that pets thrive on consistency, affection, and quality time. Caring for pets doesn't feel like a chore to me, it's something I genuinely look forward to and enjoy incorporating into my weekly routine.🐶🤍 When caring for pets in a client's home, I prioritize keeping them comfortable by maintaining their usual routine as closely as possible. I follow all instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications (if needed), and any special preferences. I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, affection, and exercise while also respecting their individual personalities and needs. I believe communication is important, so I am happy to provide updates, photos, and messages to give pet parents peace of mind while they are away. My goal is to create a safe, calm, and loving environment where pets feel secure and cared for in their familiar surroundings.
“This whole process of pet sitting was unfamiliar and a whole new experience for us but Nadine welcomed us into her home like family which made it all easy. Romeo felt so comfortable during our arrival that as she opened the door he let himself right in and didn't look back. Romeo stayed for 5 nights and Nadine kept us updated regularly communicating by messages and sending us memorable photos of him and her pups while on our vacation. Romeo looked so comfortable and happy to be part of the group. We felt our dog was being well taken care of as Romeo was her own. Her family and pups did a great job keeping him comfortable and happy which put us at ease while we were thousands of miles away from home. I highly recommend Nadine and will be going back to her in the future! Thank you so much!!”
“Deborah was fantastic! She was nice enough to accommodate us same day and could not have been nicer. We could tell instantly when we arrived that she was going to take great care of our dog Otto. She took him on walks, took him to the beach, sent lots of great photos, and even bought him some pup cups! Her children were also absolutely lovely and obviously made Otto feel comfortable and welcome. Highly recommend using Deborah services! You cannot go wrong!”
“We are SO grateful we found Luna! Our usual dog care fell through right before a long out-of-state trip, and we were genuinely considering postponing because our senior dog, Indi, has recently been diagnosed with IBD and needs a specialized diet, daily meds, and a calm, attentive environment. She can get stressed easily in new places, which has previously led to tummy issues and even skin flare-ups — so we were very nervous about leaving her with someone new. From the very first message, Luna was incredibly warm, proactive, and thoughtful. She even offered to set up a meet-and-greet right away before we could ask, which immediately put us at ease. Once we dropped Indi off, it was clear Luna treats animals like family. Her own dog, Jim, also has IBD, so she had first-hand experience and comfort caring for a pup with similar needs. Throughout the two weeks, Luna provided detailed updates every single day — including meals, meds, walks, and yes, digestion reports (very appreciated 😂). She took so many adorable photos and videos that we could see how happy and relaxed Indi was. Our dog walker also commented on how noticeably happier and healthier Indi seemed while staying at Luna’s — her stools even improved (a true win for IBD dog parents!). Communication was flawless, kind, and reassuring the whole time. We felt completely at ease, which is priceless. We would absolutely book with Luna again and recommend her wholeheartedly to anyone looking for a sitter who is caring, attentive, and truly exceptional. Indi came home happy, calm, and healthy — we couldn’t ask for more. 💛🐾”

“Erin is great! She was very attentive and caring towards my cat. I appreciated her approach by not just checking boxes and dropping in to care for my, but to spend quality time with my cat. I highly recommend Erin!”
“Cora Leigh gave our cats friendly and fun visits, she played with them, cared for them, and spent a generous amount of time with them. Her daily check in’s were informative, but not pesky! The photos were great! I plan to have her back again and again. Wonderful.”
“Olivia did a great job taking care of our cat Knightly. He is a diabetic cat that requires insulin injections twice a day. Olivia is both professional and reliable. We will ask her to pet sit again. Thank you!”
“Sophia is a very caring and attentive pet sitter. She is a good communicator and sent me lots of adorable pictures of my fur babies while I was out of town. I knew my pets were in safe hands with her.”
“Alex went above and beyond in caring for our kitties! He played with our menace of a kitten to the point he was snuggling and sleepy (which is a large task) and had our incredibly timid cat eating consistently while we were gone. He sent thorough updates with adorable pictures and left our home in pristine condition. We couldn’t recommend Alex more for other pet owners and will be using his services in the future. He is communicative, thoughtful, follows directions explicitly, and we felt completely at ease with him caring for not only our cats but our home.”
“This was Kat's first time sitting for our kitten Peanut, and she exceeded our expectations across the board. Communication was excellent — she shared regular updates and sent us genuinely fun photos that we loved getting throughout the trip. When we hit an unexpected schedule change, Kat was completely accommodating and made it a non-issue. The house was just as clean as we left it. She followed everything we asked, from the litter box routine to stripping the bed before we got back. Most importantly, Peanut was visibly happy and well-adjusted when we returned — you can always tell when a sitter has actually engaged with your pet, and she clearly had. Peanut was so comfortable with Kat that we were able to fully relax and enjoy our vacation. We will absolutely have her sit for Peanut again. Highly recommend.”
About: I always prioritize your pet’s wellbeing and safety. Every cat is different with a unique personality so I’m happy to give your energetic cat lots of play time or sit calmly with your couch potato. I have many years of experience with cleaning kitty litter, feeding, and playing with cats! I also have experience with special feeding and care instructions for cats with specific needs. It's important to me that your animal feels safe and comfortable around me. I love being around cats so I will always go the extra mile to make sure your animal is safe and happy with me!
“Bridget is the best! My boys warmed up to her immediately. She sent photos of them each day and made sure they had everything they needed. Her response time was prompt and she’s reachable! I trust my boys in her hands anytime and will absolutely be booking her again :)”
“My crew absolutely loved Sharon and her positive energy. The photos she sent were pronominal, the communication was great. We will be hiring her again. Alsó appreciated her attention to detail when learning all the different routines and behavior patterns with my little ones. Thank you.”

About: I've been an animal lover for as long as I can remember. Growing up with a German Shepherd, a German Shorthaired Pointer, and three cats taught me how important patience, consistency, and care are for pets. I started pet sitting as a teenager for family friends, and through word of mouth I quickly became a trusted sitter for pets and homes of all kinds. One of my biggest pet-sitting jobs included caring for three dogs, 18 outdoor cats, and even feeding local crows and cranes! Having lived all over the country, I've continued to find joy in caring for animals wherever I go. I treat every pet like family and strive to keep them happy, comfortable, and loved while you're away. 🐾 Pet care fits naturally into my routine as a young professional working a typical Monday–Friday schedule for a nonprofit organization. I'm available before and after work for walks, feedings, playtime, and plenty of attention. I also understand how important consistency is for pets, so I'm happy to use my lunch break to stop by for mid-day potty breaks, walks, or check-ins. My goal is to keep your pet comfortable, cared for, as close to their normal routine while you're away. 🐾 I believe pets are happiest when they can stick to their normal routine. In my clients' homes, I follow all feeding schedules, exercise routines, medication instructions, and household rules to ensure pets feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away. Whether it's walks, playtime, potty breaks, cuddles, or simply keeping a pet company, I make sure each animal receives the attention and care they need. I also treat every home with the same respect I would my own, keeping things clean, secure, and well cared for.
“I recently had Madison house sit and pet sit for nearly two weeks, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. She took wonderful care of my cat, playing with him multiple times a day and regularly sending pictures so I always knew how he was doing. It's clear she genuinely loves animals. I came home to a happy, relaxed cat, just as I had left him. Madison was also incredibly responsive throughout the stay. Any time I had a question, she replied quickly and put my mind at ease. She also left the house in great shape, which I really appreciated. Leaving your pet with someone new can be a worrisome experience, but I never felt anxious once with Madison. I was completely at ease knowing my cat and home were in such capable, caring hands. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, attentive pet sitter, and I will absolutely be hiring her again without hesitation.”
“Michelle crushed it! She went above and beyond to make sure my fur babies were taken care of and got lots of love while I was gone :) I’ll definitely be booking her the next time I need a pet sitter!”
“I hit the jackpot with Jessica and her attentive cat sitting services. After meeting her, I felt completely confident. Then her consistent check-in’s, compounded my feelings! I love all the attention that Ash and Cole were receiving from her and her daughter. They were definitely committed to spending time with the boys and not just throwing food at them and leaving! I would definitely use Jessica’s services again.”

“Susannah and Richard were warm, communicative and wonderful! I can tell that Birdie really enjoyed her afternoon with them and I will be rebooking soon. I love that they are so close to Open space for walks and can also walk Birdie downtown. Highly Recommend!”
“Murphy has her second visit with Shayla and Jacob today and we are so grateful for their good care. I feel like she’s in great hands there. My big baby even got to meet a cat for the first time today! Thank you so much, she’s exhausted but seems very content.”
“Kylie was great to communicate with and she took really good care of my dog Mochi! She cares for her dog really well. It was relieved to know my dog has someone like this watching him when I’m away!”
“Robert and Sheila were fantastic! They were responsive and easy to work and took great care of our little one, Shelby. Their sweet dog Yoti was patient with our timid and over-attached dog Shelby. Yoti is friendly and welcoming……just like Robert and Sheila. Their home had a beautiful back yard where the dogs can roam together, and Rob is there with them all day while he works. We were fortunate to find them.”

“Judy did a wonderful job with our Sunshine. She had the extra pressure of dealing with two dogs who were unfamiliar with each other. Because of Judy we were able to enjoy day at the Safari while on vacation.”
“Sarah and her husband Matt we’re awesome doggy daycare for Libra! They sent pictures and gave me updates throughout the day. They’re very welcoming and I felt my dog was safe and happy while she was there. I would use her again and highly recommend you do too!”

Thank you, Jestina!”
“Susana was wonderful with our pup! She is very quick to respond to any messages and sent pictures and videos of my boy.

About: I've been an animal lover my entire life, and caring for both cats and dogs have always brought me a lot of joy. Growing up I always had cats and dogs in the house at all times. Caring for them through every stage of life has taught me a lot about patience, trust and the eclectic personalities that make pets so wonderful. I love learning about animal behavior and body language so I can help animals feel safe, understood and comfortable. I believe in meeting them where they are and earning their trust at their own pace, no matter the personality type. As a mainly remote working professional, I have the flexibility to provide dependable visits and walks throughout the day. I can easily fit care into my routine while updating parents with photos and messages along the way. I understand inviting someone into your home and trusting them with your pet is a big decision. I treat every home with the same care and respect I would want for my own. As an owner with specific pet routines of my own, I know that each pet has their own preferences and comfort level that I pay close attention to. My goal is to provide dependable care, clear communication and peace of mind so you can be present while you're away knowing your pet is in good hands.
“Cora has been such a great, reliable dog walker for us. She always showed up, communicated well, and took great care of our dogs. I would recommend her to anyone who is interested in hiring her for your pets needs!”
About: Hi there, I’m Chris! I’ve had some kind of pet in my life ever since I was little, from cats to dogs to aquatic acquaintances! I currently have two cats that bring me so much happiness. I’ve been my friend’s and family’s go to pet sitter for many years due to my obvious love of pets and animals. I’ve taken care of all sizes of dogs and of all ages, as well as mixed species pet families. I establish bonds with the animals I care for which can sometimes make it hard to say goodbye. I adore puppies due to their excitable nature and high energy! Cats have a special place in my heart because of the memories I share with the cats I’ve had but if you were to ask me if I was a cat or dog person; I’d say, “Why can’t you be both?” LGBTQIA+ friendly I graduated from college with a degree in anthropology and am now back in my hometown working a part-time contract job. My work schedule is very flexible so with enough time’s notice I can work any request into it. I am typically free to feed and walk pets in the morning and evening, as typical schedules go. Please let me know if there are any special requests or needs for your animal! I understand the importance of an animals happiness and mental state. I am very much used to taking care of pets in other’s houses and will follow the rules of the house perfectly. I have house sat in Kosher households before so I am familiar with the importance of following set rules. I am okay with pets that sleep on the bed with the owner or having to crate up a pet for the night. I am a private person and often keep to myself; I don’t cause a ruckus! I keep things nice and tidy just like the saying goes, “a place for everything and an everything in its place.”
“Alex has been incredibly reliable and caring with my dog. They’re gentle, kind, and clearly love what they do. I always feel at ease knowing my pup is in such good hands. Highly recommend!”
About: I started dog walking and petsitting in 2022. I'm great at reinforcing recall and working with all kinds of dogs, from independent off-leash to dogs that are prone to separation anxiety. I’m the perfect person to hang out with and cuddle your furry friend while you’re away. I am currently working from home and part time at that so I have plenty of energy to devote to making sure your furry friend is well taken care of. I'm fairly active and get at least 2 walks in a day and enjoy hiking as well. I usually take dogs on walks 2x daily unless otherwise instructed. I am home for most of the day and am typically not gone from the home for more than a couple hours at a time. Love having the pets sleep with me and venture out to hiking spots or day trips if that is something that suits them.
About: I always prioritize your pet’s wellbeing and safety. I love to give dogs the chance to get outside, get some exercise, and have some fun! I have many years of experience around dogs and cats. I have experience with challenging, skittish, young, and old dogs. I can walk multiple dogs at once and have experience housesitting and walking. It's important to me that your animal feels safe and comfortable around me. I love being around animals so I will always go the extra mile to make sure your animal is safe and happy with me! I have availability everyday besides Wednesday and Thursday. I have flexible availability the other days of the week! I hope we can find a time to care for your pet! Your pet and your trust is my priority. I ensure yours and your pet’s comfort by attending to specific needs of your pup. I am very respectful of others homes and boundaries. Most importantly, I will always make sure your pup is safe while having fun!
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life, but I’ve had experience taking care of dogs on a dairy farm which got a little rowdy at times. I’m currently starting a job that will hopefully be full-time But might be a little shaky for a couple months so I’ll have a lot of free time to walk your dogs! I have a fenced yard and two dogs that are friendly for your puppy dog to play with. And if they just need a walk I will make sure that that puppy will have the best sleep after.
About: I’ve had pets since i could remember, it’s important to me that our animals live long happy and healthy lives! I’ve always been a family dog watcher and walker and would love to be part of yours! I’m currently available for any type of care! i’m taking a break from work and school so it’ll be around the clock care for personal care! I have a fenced yard with security cameras to make sure there’s no chance of any unnoticed care, even while outside! And of course I will always give extra love to your fur babies!
About: I have always had animals growing up (cats, dogs, rabbits, horses) and took a break from having pets for schooling. I grew up in 4-H and FFA but stopped with animals after high school. Now I have a lab puppy who keeps me active. But would love to be around more pets. I’m a runner and love being outside. We got our puppy at 8 weeks and have done all of his training at home. He is a well mannered, behaved puppy. I enjoy playing and interacting with animals. Our pets are our family! I don’t have much experience with pet sitting but for friends and family. My actual career is a nurse so first aid is my thing! At this time I can only dog walk and do check ins.
About: With over two decades caring for animals, I understand the importance of consistency, structure, and heartfelt connection. I tailor care to their unique & individual energy level and temperament, making sure they feel safe, loved, and engaged. Skills include: • Providing daily walks, playtime, and mental stimulation • Administering medication and special dietary care • Following training cues and behavioral guidelines • Handling puppies, seniors, and animals with special needs • Ensuring safety and comfort during solo time or socialization • Offering basic grooming and cleanliness maintenance I’m dedicated to creating a fun, secure space for pets to thrive while their humans are away. I’m currently focused on getting a book published, which means my schedule can be flexible yet full—if you catch my drift. Working with animals not only keeps me inspired but also supports my growing business, which combines professional cleaning with attentive pet sitting. ⸻ Pet care is a meaningful and energizing part of my daily routine. Whether it’s morning walks, play sessions, feeding, or simply offering quiet companionship, I prioritize pets’ well-being and happiness every day. Because I’m currently working on publishing a book, I have the flexibility to dedicate focused, consistent time to each animal I care for. This means I can adapt my schedule to meet your pet’s specific needs—whether that’s extra playtime, medication administration, or simply being a calm presence while you’re away. Our family continues to heal from the loss of our beloved cat, Giraffe, last year. Caring for animals has been a vital source of comfort and strength as we embrace this new chapter. I’m dedicated to creating a clean, calm, and nurturing environment where pets feel safe and cherished. I look forward to providing thoughtful, reliable care for your furry family members while you’re away. Pet care is not just a job for me; it’s a source of inspiration and joy that fits naturally into my lifestyle and supports the balance I’m building in life here in the Santa Cruz Mountains. Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or mine, my goal is always to provide a safe, loving, and stress-free environment tailored to their needs. In Your Home: I follow your routines closely — feeding schedules, exercise, medication, and any special instructions — so your pet experiences as little disruption as possible. I keep their space clean, respect their boundaries, and offer companionship and playtime based on their personality and energy level. I also ensure your home stays tidy and secure while you’re away. In My Home: If your pet stays with me, they’ll be welcomed into a calm, comfortable space where I prioritize consistency and care. I maintain a clean, pet-friendly environment with plenty of attention, exercise, and mental stimulation. I’m attentive to signs of stress or discomfort and adjust accordingly to keep them happy and relaxed. No matter the setting, I treat every animal like family — with patience, respect, and affection — ensuring they feel safe and loved throughout their stay.
About: I have experience with birds, cats, and small to very large dogs! I am willing to train if needed for your dogs. Cats and birds are welcome! I work as a mobile X-ray tech and have availability after 3:30 Tuesday through Saturday. I am free on Sundays and Mondays the full day. :) I am trustworthy and loving towards your pet care needs, I have plenty of grass at the park near my home for dogs to run!
About: I have always loved being around animals of all kind. I have a deep trust in them because of their innocent nature, and I am deeply compelled to love and protect them. I work part-time and have a fair amount of flexibility in my schedule for the time-being. I have a young male pup named Bigelow who loves to play with other dog-friendly doggos. He and I would love the company of other dogs at our home, out on leash walks, hikes and trail outings, and on off leash beach and park playdates. Biggy adapts to the playstyle of his friends; he is a wonderful combination of fast, agile, gentle and sweet, and naturally responds to the dominance/submission of his pals. I have a fenced yard with 1 young and friendly dog, and one indoor/outdoor kitty who reluctantly tolerates the presence of dogs who do not chase after him. There is an unheated pool that the dogs will have access to swim in. The pool will not be supervised constantly so it is important to know that your sweetie can swim if necessary, and can use the stairs to exit the pool. There are sunny and shady spots, stairs, deck space, and several dirt/grass spaces for potty spots. Doggies can roam freely and play around the fenced yard space, and will have access to indoors for meals, quiet times, rest times, and when weather insists. Doggies sleep indoors/outdoors on dog beds, crates, or the couch. Doggos need to be potty trained and should be able to sleep through the night without potty access until 7 am. Your doggy will be in safe and loving hands with us. It is our duty and honor to love and protect them as our own.
About: Hi! A little bit about me… I have grown up with animals for as long as I can remember. From farm summer camps to taking care of neighbor’s pets to adopting dogs and cats from the local shelter, I have always loved having animals in my life. With around eight years of professional pet care experience, I offer pet walking, overnight stays and day care visits for dogs, cats and other pets. My main goals are to ensure your pet is comfortable, happy and safe, and that the owner feels the same. I understand being away from your pet is hard, so I want to provide as much comfort as possible. I have had experience with young, senior and challenging pets. I also volunteered at NorthBay Animal Services and Petaluma Pet Pals. Both were great experiences and allowed me to get to know many different pups and kittens. I’m excited to meet your furry friend! I just graduated from college at the University of Oregon and am home for a few months. I am looking for some sweet pets to hang out with and care for! My main goals are to ensure your pet is comfortable, happy and safe, and that the owner feels the same.

“Dustin was awesome. He is very attentive to the dogs and was completely engaged with them. Our two pups had an amazing time especially being able to enjoy the wide open spaces of Dustin’s vast property. It was a social adventure and they came back better for it. Thank you Dustin from both Avi & Daniel!”
“Great sitter. We were a bit nervous at first cuz our dog has some bad tendencies but she was great at controlling his leash aggression and kept us updated the whole time. Really great experience overall!”
“Tamara was a great host for our dog Pikachu! She sent pictures throughout his stay and went above and beyond to make him comfortable. We were able to fully relax knowing he was in good hands. We will definitely use her for boarding in the future.”
“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.”
“Shayla & Jacob were great communicators. They responded a timely manor. My puppies (5 months and just over a year) were well taken care of. We set up a meet and greet they took the time to listen to me and understand what my puppies needed they did not rush me at all I would definitely leave my puppies with them again. Not only are they lovely people but have a beautiful family”
“Our dog had a wonderful stay! Alexis took great care of him in her home, sent updates and photos, and it was clear he was comfortable and happy the whole time. We felt at ease knowing he was in such good hands. We will absolutely book with her again — thank you for taking such great care of Chauncey! :)”
“Hsiaolei provided Lulu the absolute best attention and care. They were extremely attentive to her needs, taking her on loads of hikes because she is an energetic dog. The photos she sent us during our time away showed Lulu visibly smiling, whether on her pad by the fire or out on a walk. I highly recommend Hsiaolei!”
“Robert sent updates everyday and I knew Riley and Luma were spoiled at his house. Riley is a senior and needs eye drops twice a day, Robert was understanding and provided what she needed.”
“Deborah was fantastic! She was nice enough to accommodate us same day and could not have been nicer. We could tell instantly when we arrived that she was going to take great care of our dog Otto. She took him on walks, took him to the beach, sent lots of great photos, and even bought him some pup cups! Her children were also absolutely lovely and obviously made Otto feel comfortable and welcome. Highly recommend using Deborah services! You cannot go wrong!”
“Cymantha was wonderful with our dog Sasco. Sasco gets really shy and sad when we leave her but Cymantha was so understanding and kind. She sent us great updates and pictures that made us feel so much better. Would highly recommend her to care for your dog!”
“Ross, Melissa, and Millie were the best sitters we could ask for! We received constant photo updates and they loved on our pups as if they were their own! Our dogs were sad to leave and we could tell from all the photos, walks, and adventures that they had an absolute blast. Would absolutely rebook again when we are out of town and need a sitter!”
About: I’ve cared for dogs in a wide range of situations, including senior dogs, special-needs pups, and dogs recovering from injuries. Most dogs love nature, and it's exciting to see them perk up on walks at the sound of chirping birds, rustling brush, or a skittering lizard. There are great dog-friendly nature paths in Novato and San Rafael that give the pups both sniffing and social opportunities, so they come home tired and content. What I’m especially good at is communication. I pay close attention to a dog’s eyes, ears, posture, and energy, because they tell you so much before they ever make a sound. I use a gentle “dog voice” (yes, the sweet baby-talk voice) and clear, steady cues, because many dogs respond quickly to warmth, tone, and consistency. Even anxious or shy dogs usually soften when they realize they’re being understood. I’ve also cared for large dogs, and my Labrador retriever loves having big buddies to play with. No matter the size, age, or temperament, I’m respectful of each dog’s individual needs, and I make sure they feel safe, seen, and truly cared for with plenty of affection, attention, patience, and exercise. I currently work from home, and I have a (mostly) flexible schedule. I like to get out with my dog two times a day for 2+ mile walks on local trails and parks. I respect people's spaces, and I am good at following detailed instructions for homes and their pets. I have references and happy clients to tell you about it!
“I knew the second i read her profile she would be the best for my Bentley. Jazmin sent pics, and updates. Responds quickly. Kind, compassionate, and someone I definitely trust with my Bentley. Bentley is a senior dog, and he loved Jazmin and her family. Definitely would recommend to friends. And also future occasions. Thank you Jazmin”

I pay close attention to pets’ behavior and body language to ensure they feel safe, secure, and well cared for at all times.
“Mackenzie and her family were AMAZING. They took such good care of our pups. Both Lylla and Rocket have separation anxiety issues, and we knew they had been well-loved because they were so calm when we picked them up. We also loved the "Welcome Puppies" chalk drawing that Mackenzie's daughter drew for us. We would absolutely ask them to watch our dogs again!!”
“Jeanette is very knowledgeable about dogs, breeds and their behaviors. I really appreciate that she understand and can deal with the different animals in her care. She also communicated exceptionally well with updates on my pup during the week that he was with her family.”
