“Mocha thoroughly enjoys spending time with Nathaniel and his family. They consistently demonstrate great kindness towards him, ensuring that he is well taken care of. We truly appreciate your unwavering care for him, and we eagerly anticipate our next meeting.”
“Ruthy was an amazing dog sitter! She was very flexible and accommodating with our last minute request, and treated our pup like one of her own. Very communicative, sent many photos and videos so we could see how much fun Wednesday was having. It made us feel a lot more relaxed on our trip. Her own two dogs, Milo and Cicero, are the sweetest—clearly very well trained and very playful. Wednesday was very exhausted and happy when we picked her up. Thanks Ruthy!”
“We are so happy to find Didem! She and her husband took such great care of our dog while we were out of town. They really made her feel like part of their family for the week. We loved the updates and the photos and videos. Didem is a fantastic communicator, and is so helpful in answering our questions. We would absolutely book again with Didem- I’m pretty sure our dog didn’t want to come home at the end of our trip! Didem and her family are great dog carers, and I would recommend them to anyone in a heartbeat.”
“Anchisa was a wonderful sitter for my dog Felix! He came home healthy and happy, she was super clear in her communication and very responsive and considerate, and sent plenty of photos. It was clear Felix was very comfortable with her and her partner and got lots of love and care from them. They were also very accommodating and conscientious about understanding his needs. I would absolutely ask her to sit for Felix again, thank you for everything!”
“My animals are always so happy and healthy after a stay with Mariola! They definitely see it as their home away from home. I'll absolutely have them stay there, pretty much any time I leave town.”
“Meghan and Jenny were the absolute best! They watched our Dog Squid for nearly 3 weeks while we were in Europe and we got the cutest updates every single day. I honestly think Squid was sad to leave them to come back home. He had so much fun and was so loved. We absolutely will use them again and cannot begin to describe how comforting it is to know your pet is in a loving home while you are traveling.”
“Rob is an excellent dog sitter. My little pup has separation anxiety and felt very at home with Rob, and eventually became their shadow. Thank you, Rob! We’ll be seeing you in the future 💜”
“Bear had a great time with Ulumna. She sent us a picture every day and we could see how happy he was. It was like he had his own vacation while we were on ours! We’re glad to have found Ulumna and hope to book her again in the future!”
About: I have been surrounded by animals my entire life, beginning with my childhood growing up on a farm. That early, hands-on exposure taught me the fundamentals of animal care, daily routines, and how to read animal behavior. This transitioned into professional work as a dog trainer at Happy Hound play and daycare in Oakland where I trained and cared for dogs both at the center and on park walks and in home visits. I am able to confidently handle pets of all sizes, temperaments, and energy levels from puppies needing structure and basic obedience to older dogs requiring a gentle, patient approach. I have a background in housing and caring for animals. I currently share my home with my own pet, Baloo and my housemates pet Bentley my living space is always dog-friendly. I know exactly what it takes to create a safe, enriching, and comforting environment for visiting animals. I can give owners peace of mind while they are away! I am currently working part-time and have lots of flexibility to work around schedules and to setup routines! I also have transportation to travel. I have a fully fenced in yard with two fur babies to keep your doggos safe and entertained! They can lounge outside in the sun or inside.
“Patrick is a pro. He was consistently communicative, flexible, and above all caring for our dear dog. We are very happy to have met him and hope to work with him again for future dogsitting needs!”
“We were SOOOOO happy to have found Kristiina! The person that usually takes care of our dog had to bail at the last minute and so we brought our little Bitsy to Kristiina’s house with very little notice. During our trip we got daily pictures of Bitsy as well as info on what she did that day and how she seemed to be doing. Kristiina was a life-saver. If we need a dog-sitter again we will definitely come back!”
“Thank you again Zach! Our 3rd (or 4th?) stay with Zach and he really went above and beyond this time. We got stuck in terrible traffic and got home at 1am so he agreed to watch sunny for an extra night without any issue. Thanks Zach!”
“Many thanks again to Shruti and Robyn for watching our pup and being flexible with our schedule. Gemmy can be a lot with her need for attention, but had a great time on her most recent stay.”
“Joann was great! She took us on with really late notice, sent updates of our cute sleepy dog, and our pup came home super happy. Would work with Joann again in the future!”
“Madeleine was again a great sitter for our very high anxiety dog. She made him feel right at home snuggled under the blankets and soaking up the sun! Always friendly, flexible, and punctual!”
“Robyn and her family are so sweet. She was incredibly flexible when our timeline for needing care changed and worked seamlessly with our friends who dropped off Maya while we were on the other side of the country. Robyns daughter was an angel with our dog and we have already booked two more weeks of overnights with her. Thank you Robyn!”
“Wonderful experience!! Buddha will for sure be back for play dates and overnighters. Even gave me good advice on Buddhas weight loss journey. Thank you so much Lucas for keeping my baby safe and happy! ☺️”
About: I've taken care of many dogs from chihuahua's, poodle mixes, corgi's and pointers. I have the most experience with small dogs but would love to take care of your large pups too! I have experience caring for and feeding medication to senior dogs from Muttville in San Francisco and lived and cared for a very anxious corgi for two years so have a lot of experience navigating and understanding when a dog needs space. I cannot wait to meet your pup! I'm starting grad school in late august so have plenty of time to play with your pups! I'm available weekdays and weekends for now and will update my schedule once school is back in session. I have a small fenced in yard if the pup needs a quiet enclosed area to play in. I have experience crating anxious corgis and giving medication and am willing to follow any rules you have to ensure good training and safety for your dog. Ultimately, I just want you and your pet to be comfortable!

“I was nervous leaving my 16 yr old with William as she hadn’t ever been boarded before and is shy and fearful with strangers and other cats. William made time for me to come and see what accommodations for her would be like. I felt at ease after that visit as he was warm, funny and very knowledgeable about cats. He genuinely loved Nyla and cared for my old Grand Dame as though she were his own. Her special diet instructions were implanted as well. She made herself at home in a special cubby with her favorite blankets. It was obvious to me at pick up that she was relaxed and had a positive experience. Thanks, William!!”
“Emilia was so sweet with our two kitties . She sent me pictures and was very communicative. Clearly a cat lover :) and she watered our plants and took care of some ant issues we had while away. Thank you for taking such good care of our cats!”
“Zoe did a wonderful job taking care of my two cats. She was flexible, communicative, and very professional. My cats loved her and were relaxed and happy under her care. I will definitely book her again.”
“Lisa is awesome. We have two cats -- one is super outgoing and the other a bit more shy. The shy one tends to hide when we're gone, but Lisa makes every effort to make her feel comfortable and spend time with her, which we really appreciate! We also love the photo updates she sends during her visits. And the best part: she also helped us get married (seriously). My now husband and I were getting married out of state and somehow forgot our birth certificates - she took the time to overnight Fedex them to us. So if you need a cat sitter, or someone to save the day in general, don't hesitate to connect with Lisa!”
“Cesar was absolutely fantastic!!! He sent so many pictures and videos of my baby every visit. I will definitely be booking with Cesar and Cindy again they are trustworthy and take care of your home and your pets very well. This was my first time booking and my cat was in great hands as expected.”
“Shirley is incredible and dependable! We’ve used her numerous times and she always goes the extra mile for us. We feel safe and secure knowing she’s looking out for our pet and home”
“Robin looks after my cat Oliver when I am away. She gives me peace of mind with daily notes and pictures, and then when I get home, he seems a lot less stressed than I’ve seen with any other pet sitter I’ve used before. I will always trust Robin to look after Oliver!”
“Jamarca really went above and beyond in taking care of my senior kitty while I was on vacation. She sent great photos and kept me in close communication so that I could enjoy time away without worrying.”
“Natalie was a great cat sitter for my 16 year old hairless cat. She was thoughtful, reliable, punctual, and followed instructions perfectly. The photos of him licking his chops or emerging from his blankets were so cute! Thank you so much Natalie! I plan to call you again.”
“Alyssa did a great job with my two 1 year old cats. They are both very shy and hide when people come over but they were both snuggling her by the end of the trip. I felt great about having someone so caring and thoughtful come take care of them. She certainly passed their test! 😻😸”
About: I have grown up with cats from childhood to having many around me in my current life with friends and family. I have pet sat for cats many times and have been able to provide medicine to them if needed!
“Shanley is absolutely amazing—a true cat whisperer! This was the second time she cared for our cat, and we’ll definitely be booking with her anytime we’re away in the future. From the moment we met, I felt completely comfortable trusting her with both our cat and our home. She was always punctual, left thoughtful and detailed visit notes, and shared the best photos. Highly, highly recommend!”
“Melissa is a wonderful sitter! I could tell Poppy was happy when I got home. Melissa was communicative, careful, pleasant, and took lovely pictures. I would invite her to sit again any time!!”
“This sitter really goes the extra mile to care for your pets. She even offered to water some of our house plants. My cats absolutely adore her. I would hire her again in a heartbeat!”
“Bailey was very attentive to our requests regarding our cat Leon on a week long trip we took. He was punctual and sent us updates and pictures during each visit. Would absolutely choose them for pet care!”
“Nick is an excellent sitter! He was very friendly and communicative, and my cats seem to love him. I fully trust Nick with my fur babies and recommend him as a sitter.”
“This is our 4th or 5th time booking Michaela, and as always she was fantastic. Her daily pictures showed that even our shy cat was coming to hang out with her. She also goes above and beyond to look after the house, taking out the trash, etc. She’s well worth it and we hope to keep working with her in the future!”
“This was Irina's second in-home visit with Clancy (along with several recent drop-ins) and it's been wonderful to see how my big shy 14-year-old orange boy has taken to her. It gives me such peace of mind to know he's being so well cared for when I have to travel. And the fantastic photos from Irina are an added bonus!”

Prices are estimates per day for 1 dog. Pricing may vary based on your search and includes a booking fee of 11%.
About: I am a dog walker and trainer based in Emeryville. I am currently working towards my CTC to improve my training skills. I have experience training dogs big and small in single and multi dog homes. I use positive reinforcement (usually food) in my training and do not use aversive tools for training. I love teaching all sorts of behaviors, but especially love training good manners and leash walking skills. I offer regular dog walking for enrichment and exercise as well as training walks that work on walking and public behaviors. For pet sitting: I have owned large and small dogs, cats, insects, rats, fish, and other birds. I have owned a diabetic dog who requires insulin twice a day and a cat who received pills every day for her thyroid. I have experience giving medicine both orally and via shot using positive reinforcement. I’m am currently taking classes learning to be a dog trainer, I am looking for walking clients to get more experience with all types of dogs. I have an amazing friendly dog who is a Guide Dogs for the Blind career change. He is a working service dog, so he may come to sits or on walks if it’s appropriate.
“Madeleine was immensely helpful in accepting our last minute early morning booking for our timid dog. She was warm and welcoming and took the time to learn our dogs needs. Looking forward to rebooking in the future - thank you!!”
“We have a really shy/sensitive mini-Aussie doodle who’s nervous around new people. Anchisa and her partner Michael were so so kind to let us visit with them before booking to “test the waters”. We were so genuinely surprised at how quickly our pup settled in! We’ve already booked for a second sitting session! Thanks so much ❤️”
“This is our second time booking doggy day care with Danielle and her dog Nala. Danielle does a great job. She keeps our dog safe and well entertained. We appreciate her updates of messages and photos throughout the day. Looking forward to the next time.”
“VJ and Matthew took amazing care of my dog Willa! They were so communicative and sent lots of pictures and videos. Willa seemed to have a great time with their dogs and feel comfortable despite her anxiety. Will definitely be booking again!”

“Ruthy is the best! Huey goes to the dog park multiple times a day and is socializing with the other dogs all day. He comes home tired, happy and hungry. Thank you ruthy!! ”
“Didem and her husband always take great care of Zeke, and he is always excited to spend time with them. Didem is very responsive and communicative. I trust and highly recommend her!”
“My dog was immediately comfortable with Shruti and Robyn and seemed to have a great time in their care. I appreciate their help and would definitely book with them again!”

“Anthony was one of the best dogsitters I’ve connected with through Rover. He has been super clear with communication, very flexible/accommodating of Fluffy’s needs and my schedule, and most importantly, took super good care of Fluffy. She’s a high maintenance dog that barks a lot, but I could tell immediately that Anthony is very confident in taking care of all kinds of dogs in all situations.”
“Thank you Valerie for looking after our Biscuit. It was Biscuit first time at Daycare and you did an amazing job making it easy for Biscuit to adjust. We will be in touch again for another Daycare day soon. God bless.”
“Tamara took such good care of our pup who has a lot of separation anxiety. He had so much fun playing with her dogs and came back so tired and happy. I’m sure our dog can’t wait to go back!”
“My sweet puppy was warmly welcomed by Emily and her 2 daughters. Emily has a dog who got along beautifully with my puppy! When I picked up my pup she was happy to have had such good care. Emily sent me pictures of the two dogs. She communicated well with me both in person and by text. I will most definitely ask her again to watch my pup!”

“Natalie is a great dog walker! She has a calming influence and spent extra time to get our dog comfortable with her, before a weeklong stints of 2x day walks. She also sent us photos so we could see he missed us less by the day. Will reach out to Natalie again when we have the need!”
“I highly recommend Zen for dog walks. She’s incredibly patient and has a great vibe and energy. I’ll definitely be using her for dog walks in the future. Thank you again for walking Viktoria!”
About: Since I was 12 I would pet sit for neighbors and family friends in my area. I always loved being around dogs since I was a toddler and still continue to provide quality care for my clients. I also raised my own pup fully on my own, constantly catering to different dietary needs and walking schedules based on his age. Although he just recently passed I understand the extra attention that is necessary for dogs who are seniors or have certain traits/needs and of course will be able to properly care for any 4 legged friend you have in your family. I am a UC Berkeley student home for the summer fully free to match any of my clients schedules, I also work weekends and holidays . Being 21 I have tons of experience with pet sitting and baby sitting. I myself raised my own furball for 16 years and understand the needs and attention that is necessary for those who are in their senior years. I also have catered to any dietary needs necessary for those with particular dietary preferences. And of course provide a space filled with unlimited love and attention.
“Rachael was great! Short notice and quick response back! Bean warmed up to her quickly and had a great time. Filled up his water dish for him and cleaned up a small mess that he had made. Definitely am looking forward to her and Bean becoming g walking buddies!”
About: I am an undergraduate student at UC Berkeley studying Political Science. I have several years of experience cat and dog sitting for various friends and family members. Most recently, I attended to a family friend's two cats, spending quality time with them each day, feeding them, playing with them, and clearing out their litter boxes. In the past, I have also walked dogs and dog-sitted while owners were on vacation. As a pet owner myself, I enjoy spending time with cats and dogs and am extremely attentive to their needs. Additionally, I have experience following multi-step instructions regarding pet care that are suited to the owners' preferences. I have lots of free time given that my class schedule is going to be light this year. When I'm at school, I don't get to be with my family pet, so I would love to bring cats and dogs into my daily/weekly routine. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always follow the owner's routine as closely as possible. I know that consistency helps pets feel comfortable, so I make sure they receive their meals on schedule, get plenty of fresh water, regular potty breaks, exercise, playtime, and lots of attention and affection. When caring for pets in a client's home, I respect both the pet's routine and the owner's home. I'll keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you're away. If pets are staying in my home, they'll have a clean, safe, and comfortable environment with plenty of supervision. I'll make sure they get exercise, enrichment, and a calm place to rest, while monitoring them closely for any changes in behavior or health. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, happy, and loved while their family is away.
“Karen is totally great! I appreciated her emails confirming her walks with Annie. My little dog readily took to her and clearly was well exercised. I hope to schedule with Karen again.”
“This is a repeat hire due to the success and quality of the previous walk . Our Malinois is well rested after the walk , and communication with Judy was clear and comfortable . Heartily recommended!”
“Jaeleigh was very quick to respond and provided us updates for our pup! She followed all the instructions we left her and was reliable. Would definitely recommend for any furry friend. Thanks Jaeleigh! :)”
“V was so helpful and responsive. What started as a weekend of dog walks turned into a month of regular dog walks at various times thru the day. V was quick to respond to my inquires and Ernest really seemed to like them. I highly recommend V for big dogs like Ernest (and likely any dog smaller than 90 lbs, which I know is many!). They handled his hesitancies (and mine) well with us scheduling a meet and greet and then treating him well thru all the walks. Thanks V!”
“Isabella is a very responsible and caring dog person. She has been caring for my pup for 7 months in a variety of ways: day/evening care, walks, and house sitting. What has impressed me most is her ability to build a bond with my people-shy and anxious pup. She is patient and kind, speaks to him in a thoughtful way and shows genuine concern for his well-being. Other skills and traits that Isabella possesses: -reliable and consistent communicator sending updates and reaching out when she has questions -flexibility with regards to scheduling, if need be, she makes adjustments -conscientious in administering my dogs meds and feeding him treats and special food -safety and privacy is top of mind with Isabella and she follows house rules and special med instructions in caring for my dog Last but not least, I have no reservations when going away because I know she will take good care of my home. I highly recommend Isabella to care for anyone's pet, they will love her!”
“Terence always goes above and beyond what’s expected from him! He is so quick to respond and incredibly accommodating. We will keep rebooking with him as our dog just loves him!”
“Kalen came for the first walk and meeting right on time, actually a bit early! He has something special with animals, both dogs came right up to him and started snuggling; if you knew my dogs you would understand what a big deal this is. He took both of them on the walk and when he came back both dogs looked happy and tired. The dogs stayed with him while he was saying goodbye and the cat now loves him. I would recommend Kalen!”

“Buddy’s second stay with Jeanette was a whopping 2.5 weeks long, and he was very well taken care of. He wasn’t an easy guest, but Jeanette and her family were super accommodating and kind with him. Really appreciated getting daily photos and updates. As we were driving away, Buddy started crying, he was so sad to say goodbye! 10/10 would recommend!”
“I am super grateful for Ben and his family. My super human-attached dog absolutely adores them (which makes leaving her a little easier on me). This is her second stay with Ben and they will remain one of my top-choice sitters! Highly recommend.”
“Fruko loves Jake! He spend the best time at his place, hanging with new furry friends. Thank you so much Jake, 100% recommended. If you’re looking for a trustful and loving dog sitter Jake is the best option! 🐶🐾”
“Our pup had a great time with this loving family! Maria is very communicative and sent updates throughout the stay, and the girls are so sweet and gentle with our dog! I’m sure she’ll be excited to see them again!”
“Our pooch Pepper had a very nice initial visit with Aiko and Dennis. She came home happy and relaxed, which is always a good sign. We have already booked our next boarding. Thank you for taking such good care of our girl!”
“Super dog sitter! My dogs were dead tired from all the amazing hikes they were taking. :) We received lots of pictures and communication during their stay so we were sure that they were safe and sound while we were gone. Lots of happy smiles and tail wags when we came back. Would definitely book again!”
