“We couldn’t have asked for better care for Kiko! Megan and Jenny were so flexible, thoughtful, and sent us lots of updates, which gave us so much peace of mind. Kiko was clearly in great hands — we’re so grateful and would absolutely recommend them to anyone!”
“Sharon took great care of Cain, especially given a recent health concern that popped up for him right before we were leaving for our trip. I felt that he was comfortable and in great care!”
“Erika was AMAZING!!!! She sent me lovely updates and pictures of Bentley while we were away. Bentley was happy and jumping when I picked him up so I am confident he had a great time with Erika and sweet pea! :) Thank you so much for taking care of our baby!!! We will definitely book with her again!!”
“We have used Patrick for our kids twice now; he has been great. This time he was flexible and helped us out a lot when our return was delayed a couple days due to flight cancellations and delays. We will definitely rebook (if he isn't tired of our dogs already).”
“Asha was a saving grace for us! Our river cancelled 2 days before we left for a week long trip and Asha made sure we were comfortable! Although we couldn’t squeeze in a meet and greet, we were able to FaceTime prior to drop off and that really made us feel a lot better. Asha was communicating the whole way through and sent so many videos and pictures! Rosie seemed like she didn’t want to leave! She has a massive yard too and took them out for beautiful walks! I highly recommend Asha and will be booking again in the future. She’s phenomenal!”
“Chad was an excellent host. He has a welcoming house and yard. He keeps the number of dogs small so it's manageable for all involved. I got daily updates from him including pictures. Would recommend.”
“Meera is the best, Stella had a great time with her and Riley. She took Stella for a walk many times and kept me posted about everything at all times. Riley and Stella became best friends, I can wait to book again and I couldn’t recommend her more❤️🥳 thank you Meera!”
“Alexandra is such a great pet sitter. We have a very high energy dog and she makes sure he gets plenty of exercise and socializing with other dogs. She also is wonderful about keeping us informed on his daily status and sends pictures and videos. She is our go to for pet sitting.”
“Koda always has a blast at Jeff & Beths’s. So grateful she gets to go to such a sweet and safe home to play and cuddle and get so well taken care of. They are the best! Thank you!”
“Olivia and Drew were great with Milo. They took him on daily walks/hikes, cuddled with him ont he couch, played in the yard with him and he loved all of it. He came home tired and happy. It was the first time leaving Milo since he was rescued and Olivia was very kind and patient and answered all my questions.”
“Suzanne took care of our Coton-de-Tulear, Sandy, for 6 nights. All that time, I felt at ease that Sandy is safe and comfortable, and best of all, happy. I can tell from the pictures she sent me looking at Sandy’s eyes and posture. Sandy had a great time at Suzanne’s beautifully kept lawn and garden. When I picked up Sandy, she was brushed and kept “white” as nicely as when we dropped her off. Suzanne is also nice and friendly. She is organized and calm. That’s why I think her place is ideal for pets who can be uncomfortable when owners leave them for a days.”
“The other nice thing about Lee's dog sitting is that the other dogs who were there when we boarded were so great, too. We love that Snowy gets to meet other fun dogs!”
“I’m always nervous before leaving Ollie while I travel but Korin makes it so easy! She accommodates Ollie’s needs and makes sure he feels safe and secure which is such a relief as the owner of a skittish dog.”
“Isaac and Jordan did a great job watching our boy! They were very communicative and were there to answer any questions. They also sent photos which was much appreciated. He slept the whole next day after we picked him up which is always a sign that he had a good time!”
“Destiny did a wonderful job taking care of my Golden Retriever Coco, I would absolutely trust her to take care of my beloved dog again! She was very attentive to Coco, played and exercised her and I appreciated her using her own judgement and adjusting Coco's activities when the weather turned hot while I was away. She is very responsive with communications, she sent me pictures and gave me regular updates. Coco had a wonderful time with Destiney!”

“Christina was awesome! She took great care of our 2 fur babies (cats) while we were on vacation. She sent lots of updates and pictures which was great and she even took it upon herself to vacuum up their litter off the floor which I didn’t ask her to do. I thought that was really cool and showed she’s willing to go the extra mile! I will definitely book her again in the future if possible :)”
“Vania was awesome!!! I needed someone last minute and she came through. She was great with my two pitbulls and treated them like queens. She was always on time and very communicative with pictures. I strongly recommend and will be using her in the future.”
“Maia was great! She was friendly, patient with our senior kitty Charlotte, and followed the instructions we left. Plus, she managed to give her medicine! Would definitely have Maia cat-sit again!”

“Mellie was fantastic! I received prompt updates about each visit. I also received many pictures of my kitties! I appreciated her timely and thorough communication. Great sitter!”
About: With 10+ years of animal care experience — including 4 years as a veterinary assistant — I’m especially experienced with seniors, anxious or shy pets, and those needing medications or extra TLC. I’m reliable, calm under pressure, and treat every pet like my own. Providing care for pets fits naturally into my lifestyle — my schedule is intentionally flexible so I can be available when your pets need me most. Whether you need help during long workdays, weekend trips, or last-minute schedule changes, I’m happy to accommodate a wide range of needs. Let me know what your pet’s routine looks like — I’ll do my best to match it, so they feel safe, loved, and right at home while you’re away. Within the client's home, I do everything I can to make their pets feel safe, seen, and loved. I know how important it is to maintain their routine and environment, especially for pets who thrive on familiarity. I take time to build trust, go at their pace, and make sure they feel comfortable with me in their space. Whether it’s a quick drop-in, extended visit, or overnight stay, I’m respectful of both your home and your pet’s boundaries. I always follow instructions carefully, provide updates along the way, and make sure your pet is happy, secure, and well cared for while you’re away. For the health and safety of your pet, I kindly ask that clients provide their own grooming tools — including brushes, combs, nail clippers, styptic powder, and any other essentials your pet is familiar with. Using your pet’s personal tools helps prevent the spread of bacteria, and ensures a safe, and hygienic experience. Your pet’s safety and your peace of mind are always my top priorities.
About: Rover is an amazing thing in my family's life. Our whole household REALLY LOVES DOGS. We love all the different dog personalities we get to know. We genuinely appreciate pet families trusting us to care for their pet(s). Boarding is our most used and preferred service of the Tree House. We have many regular clients who use our Boarding and Doggy Day Care services. We love all sizes of dogs and the full range of dog personalities. We host up to 4 guest dogs at a time and are very conscientious of the dogs we host and how they will interact. Therefore, if your dog does not do well with other dogs, our house may not be a great fit for your pet. We get requests for exclusive bookings, and where we can accommodate these requests, we will. ****price for exclusive bookings is 2X our service rate, currently $150/night or day care slot**** We require all new clients to do a meet- & -greet, so we can only accommodate last-minute new clients if we get a solid referral from another sitter, you are a friend of the family, or one of our regular clients referred you. We have found our guests do much better when they have been here and sniffed about before their stay. Your dog(s) will be loved and treated with the utmost respect by every member of our household and any other guests. Our home is very relaxed, and our backyard is a dog paradise with lots of shade and different areas for dogs to claim their own space. We always have a crew of dogs, so your dog will have plenty of stimulation and exercise while at our home. We work from home and are here nearly all the time. Pickup and drop-off times are flexible—the key is communication and consideration—fees may apply where either is lacking. The yard has plenty of room for guests to stretch it out and find their own space. We are happy to accommodate crating, and problem children will have some sort of time out until they can ground and be good guests. We are not disciplinarians but are pretty good at setting boundaries thru timeouts and rewards.

In clients’ homes, I’m respectful, clean, dependable, and focused on maintaining a calm environment for pets.
About: I have years of experience caring for cats of different ages and personalities, including my own cat Luna (9). Because of that, I understand how unique each cat can be and how important it is to move at their pace. I’m especially comfortable with: - Shy or independent cats who need space and patience - Cats who enjoy playtime and engagement - Senior cats who need a slower, more attentive approach - Feeding routines, litter care, and keeping a clean, calm environment I know some cats love attention right away, while others need time to warm up. I’m always happy to follow your cat’s lead, whether that means playtime, quiet company, or simply making sure they feel safe and cared for while you’re away.

“Erin was amazing with our generally shy cat. He took to her immediately upon meeting her during our intro session! She provided daily updates while we were away, and he looked very happy in the pictures, and was happy and healthy upon our return. I will definitely try to book her again next time we need a sitter!”

“Chad took excellent care of my young and energetic greyhound with a lot of separation anxiety. When I picked her up she was happy and excited, but she didn’t show any signs of distress. Prior to my dog’s stay at his home Chad had invited us over for a meet&greet and he took a lot of time to inquire about my dog’s character and behaviors, which made me very confident that things would be alright. Chad was also willing to accommodated my travel schedule. I am happy with the experience and hope he will be available next time I have to go out of town.”
“Sydney treated my dog as her own. Her space for them is lovely and she is kind and very accommodating to pets needs. I would bring my senior dog here again for sure ! Highly recommend”
About: I grew up with 6 pit bulls, taking sun baths with them in my backyard. I’ve volunteered in SF SPCA and donate monthly. My best friend aka Herita is a rescue, she’s been with me for over 3 years now. I believe animals have taught me how to love unconditionally and responsibly. Calm, trust and safety are my top priorities. I hope you give me the chance to connect with you and your fur baby/ babies. I work from home. I normally take Hera on a walk every morning for about 30 mins. Come back and hit the gym. After that I’m free. I can always head over in the am, afternoon or evenings. I have a fenced yard, Herita is spayed and loves to play with other dogs. Her bff is a 3 y/o Doberman. Which I take care of a couple of times a week (take her out on walks and feed her)
About: I have a sweet German Shorthaired Pointer named Belle who keeps me active. Belle and I enjoy long walks at the Berkeley Marina, Point Isabel, and King Estate. On good days, I take Belle on hikes at Redwood, Sibley, and the surrounding areas. I am home full-time with my 6.5 y/o German Pointer, Belle. Belle and I spend at least 1 hour outside everyday, weather permitting, and would love some company on our daily adventures. I can't take her out on hikes daily so some days consist of multiple walks with many potty breaks throughout the day. Belle is a very sweet and easy-going dog; she can be anti-social or shy at first and needs time to warm up to other dogs. Don't be offended if Belle shows no interest in your dog! Dogs have supervised access to the yard for bio breaks and are free to explore the home. Mental games and toys are available to keep dogs entertained if I am busy in the kitchen or running errands. I also like to train dogs basic cues (sit, down, stay, here/come, etc.) so if you are okay with that, I'm happy to do so! Belle and I completed beginners and intermediate training with Bravo Pup, and I like to continue to reinforce our training every day.
“Meera took great care of my mini poodle puppy. She took him for a walk and paid special attention to his needs as a puppy who is too rambunctious at times. Meera was great to interact with because she is kind and thoughtful. I recommend her highly!”
“Baxter had a great day with Kim and her human and dog crew. :) She sent pics with fun commentary several times (much appreciated -- especially on the first day!. Baxter was wiped out in the evening after a day of play. Kim is clearly a pro at dog care. She was very engaged in our meet and greet and asked lots of good questions. She's very pleasant to chat with and communicates proactively. Looking forward to Baxter's next stay!”
“Our recently adopted puppy had his first doggy daycare stay with Beatryx. Beatryx made sure that we felt comfortable that our puppy would be introduced to other pups in a measured and controlled way, and that Beatryx would give us updates about our pup's day. Sure enough we got plenty of picture updates, our pup made friends, and was happy as a clam when we picked him up.”

“Briana came through for us in a pinch, responding promptly to our daycare request and providing top-notch care for our pup. We felt completely at ease leaving her with Briana, especially knowing that she also had a furry friend in Banks. Briana's regular updates, with videos and pictures, kept us connected and reassured throughout Maple's stay. The extra gesture of taking Maple on a lengthy walk, keeping her occupied with toys and treats, speaks volumes about Briana's dedication and kindness. Maple returned home happy and thoroughly worn out—a thank you Briana!”
“She was so loving and caring for my dog and my foster pup. Who found her forever home with her family! I’m so thankful for her care! I want her just for me but I know she has others to care for. Thank you girl!”
“Emerson and his family were great sitters for Bernie. Communication was strong, he even sent pictures and a video to let me know how things were going. We meet the day before so that they would be familiar to my dog. It was a good match from the very beginning. We will definitely use them again.”
“Kelly was amazing! She is so thorough in getting to know both the dog and owner at the meet and greet. She put our shy dog at ease immediately, and our dog was very comfortable during her first daycare day. Thank you, Kelly!”
“Alejandra is a fantastic sitter! We picked up our little girl happy and jolly after a day with her. I cannot thank her and her husband enough ❤️ she sent constant photos ,videos and updates throughout the day. Also, their puppy Nemo is adorable and so very friendly. If you want to have piece of mind about your dog knowing they'll be safe while having a great time, Alejandra is your sitter!”

“Caitlin and Chris took such great care of Ellie, and they provided just the right number of updates/photos so we never had to worry or wonder how she was doing in their care. They were attentive to her needs and paid attention to our care instructions. Ellie came home a happily tired out pup after her day playing and cuddling with them!”
About: As a dedicated and experienced pet sitter, I am passionate about providing the best care possible for all types of pups. As a specialized pet sitter for bully breeds and small dogs, I understand the unique needs and quirks of these adorable dogs. With years of experience and a deep love for all things pup, I am committed to providing the highest level of care and attention to your furry friend. Everything from numerous short walks and playtime (temperature permitting) to feeding and medication administration, you can trust me to provide reliable and compassionate care for your dog. I am dedicated to ensuring your pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you're away. My home has ramps to access all furniture and gates to prevent pups from running up and down stairs to protect their spines and potential IVDD flare ups. Our morning starts off with a walk around the neighborhood, then it’s breakfast time which means training and play with positive reinforcement! Your pup then has playtime with toys and with my dog Penelope if they are up for it or can snooze away. We then take a quick walk during lunch to stretch our legs and say hi to our friends at Rocky’s. After work we love to be in nature and hit the trails or parks to get some steps in! After dinner I love nothing more than to cuddle with the pups on my couch before bed! We have an outdoor deck that the dogs always have access to. Mostly serves as a sunbathing lounge 😎. The deck is also equipped with grass patches for easy potty breaks. Your pup with have the company of my dog, Penelope. She is a playful and well behaved French bulldog. I have a robust routine for her to keep her healthy and prevent her from being affected from her predisposed IVDD. I can easily incorporate any special needs or request that your day may need.

About: I have loved animals my whole life! My walls were always adorned with National Geographic photos of my favorite creatures and I longed to one day have my own little wolf pack! I grew up mainly with cats and have a huge adoration for the felines of the world. I once had a three legged cat named Ziggy ( Stardust) whom was my most treasured companion. I always had friends with a lot of dogs who depended on me to love and support them as my own. Currently, I have a 8 year old Black Labrador Retriever named Olive who has been my closest furry friend for years! I truly consider her a part of me. I also have been raising my Yellow Lab pup, Juniper, since she was 8 weeks old. She is now currently 4 years and 2 months old. Raising a puppy has by far been one of the most rewarding experiences of my life and I have had so much fun training her! I consider myself a confident two legged friend who knows how to set healthy boundaries so that a pup can become the best they can be! I am a practicing herbalist and my heart is always geared towards healing. I care deeply for the sweet animals in my life! I am currently working part time and am an online student. Generally, I am available some mornings for dog walking and some nights as well. Sitting is a possibility but may be limited to my schedule. Feel free to ask! I like to play a little fetch or tug with them out in the yard or whatever keeps your pup stimulated:) But happy to take a nice long walk when appropriate for your pooch. I am very attentive to all animals and do my best to make them feel comfortable and loved.
“Kerri is amazing on walks with our energetic and reactive dog Buster! She's very kind and calm with him, and he responds so well with her. We also appreciate how prompt and communicative Kerri has been.”

About: Hi! Animals have always been a big part of my life, and I have experience caring for dogs and cats of all sizes, ages, and personalities, including senior, anxious, and high-energy pets. At home, I currently have two small dogs, Wallace (14) and Tofu (7), along with my cat Luna (9), so I understand how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your pets and their routines. I'm especially comfortable with: - Senior dog & cat care - Giving medication - High-energy dogs who need extra engagement - Anxious or shy pets who need patience and calm energy - Positive reinforcement and treat-based training I'm not a professional trainer, but I genuinely enjoy working with dogs on basic skills, confidence, and engagement through positive reinforcement.

I have a flexible schedule and am available Monday–Friday from 7am–6pm, which allows me to give your pets lots of attention, consistency, and care.

About: Gentle (or jumpy!) giants are my specialty. I’ve spent the last 15 years sharing my life with Bullmastiffs, Dogues de Bordeaux and Cane Corsos from puppyhood to passing. Medium dogs are great but the big boys and girls are my heart. All ages welcome. My home is 100% set up for dog life. I’m retired from my full-time career but still work very part-time as a CrossFit coach, and also workout daily. Mornings I’m at the gym but home between classes and all afternoon. I have time for potty in the morning and awesome walks in the afternoon. Of course, cuddle and play time included! I have a fully fenced back yard, a dog run for their business, and a big dog bed in my living room. I have plenty of sanitized toys. Basically my home is set up to share with dogs. Unfortunately, my last baby crossed the rainbow bridge last September so I’m taking this opportunity to care for yours.
About: Since my teenage years, I have taken care of various pets, cats, dogs, fish, turtles, frogs, birds, rabbits, and hamsters. In Denver, Colorado, I was assistant manager for a pet shop. We not only provided retail, but we provided play space washing, and grooming. I am looking forward to working with friendly only pets. I currently work my digital editing business part-time so I have ample time to add a pet in my daily routine. I am available daily from 4:30 AM until 10 PM. My preference would be to pet sit where they reside, but if a pet does need to stay with me overnight, they can expect a friendly, quiet, playful, safe place with three levels. There's also a dog park walking distance.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, birds, and fish since I was a child. I have trained reactive and high energy dogs and also love calm, snuggly types. I am excited to take your pet on long hikes or runs or to just spend time hanging out at home. I love them all! I am most available on the weekends but can house sit during the week where WiFi is available! As long as I can work from your home! I can care for your pet by taking them on walks, hikes, or dog park adventures. I can also stay with your pet at your home. I don’t bring folks’ pets into my home.
About: i’ve taken care of pets for around 8 years maybe more. i’ve taken care of dogs, cats, guinea pigs, hamsters, fishes, chinchillas and would love to take care of more!

I’m available during the weekends and weekdays from 6pm and after since i’m an after school teacher! i could also do mornings depending on what time since im also enrolled in college!

“Natasha has been awesome with my fur baby. He enjoys his outing with her, she is attentive to belly rubs and giving my baby love while in her care. Very responsive to my crazy work schedule and stays in communication with me if any changes. I look forward to continued care with her!!”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs of all shapes and sizes since I was 10 years old, and as a dog mom myself, I know that your pet isn't 'just' a pet, they’re family. I specialize in attentive walks and drop-in visits for both dogs and cats. My goal is to make sure every parent feels completely happy and comfortable while they’re away or at work. Because my own dog is my baby, I treat every 'furbaby' in my care like royalty. I am also available for overnight stays in my home! I live in a cozy one-bedroom with my own private, fenced-in backyard, which is perfect for safe outdoor playtime. To ensure a calm and personalized environment for my own dog and yours, I specialize in hosting small-to-medium sized breeds. Whether it's a walk, a visit, or a sleepover, I prioritize keeping you in the loop with frequent updates and photos so you never have to wonder how they’re doing. I treat every pet with the same love and devotion I give my own! I am fully available for dedicated care on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays. I also have flexible availability on Saturdays for walks, visits, or boarding. Because I work a set schedule on other days, your pet gets my undivided attention during my mid-week "on-duty" days. I am committed to maintaining your pet's routine and making sure they feel loved and active while you are busy. I provide a calm, boutique environment in my cozy in-law unit, which is located in a pet-friendly building and features my own private, fenced-in backyard for safe potty breaks and outdoor play. Your pet’s safety is my absolute priority; for overnight guests, I use a secure playpen setup when I am briefly away to ensure everyone has their own comfortable, supervised space. My resident dog is a small French Bulldog who is very timid and antisocial, he prefers to keep his distance and is never aggressive, making him a perfect, low-pressure "roommate" for pets who also enjoy their personal space. Whether we are hanging out in the yard or going for a neighborhood walk, I treat your furbaby with the same high standards of safety and love that I give my own "baby" every single day. I love making sure parents feel completely at ease, so I prioritize keeping you in the loop with frequent updates and photos so you never have to wonder how they’re doing!
“Milo loved Haylee! He even shared his favorite toy with her. Haylee is awesome - she kept me updated and sent me lots of great pics of their adventures! Will certainly be asking for her help again! Milo will be excited to see her.”
About: I love dogs! At the end of the day your fur child will be happy and pooped, and you will be worry free knowing that they are in safe hands and well taken care of. Having pets of my own I am very well aware of the responsibilities that come with a dog. I know just exactly what is required of me, and what is expected. After a long hard day at work, you will be able to come home to a cuddle bug just waiting for your arrival. Or even while you are away on vacation, you can be rest assured knowing that your pet is in good hands! What comes with your pet visit: 1 on 1 attention full of love and care. 30 minutes or more of playtime at the dog park at least once per stay 15-20 min. walks (at least 3 times a day). Meals will be served morning and evening Positive reinforcement is a must! Please note that it is a MUST that your dog is neutered/spayed to prevent any accidents. And let me know of any problem behaviors so I can best understand your dog's needs and how to approach it.
About: With 10+ years of animal care experience — including 4 years as a veterinary assistant — I’m especially experienced with seniors, anxious or shy pets, and those needing medications or extra TLC. I’m reliable, calm under pressure, and treat every pet like my own. Providing care for pets fits naturally into my lifestyle — my schedule is intentionally flexible so I can be available when your pets need me most. Whether you need help during long workdays, weekend trips, or last-minute schedule changes, I’m happy to accommodate a wide range of needs. Let me know what your pet’s routine looks like — I’ll do my best to match it, so they feel safe, loved, and right at home while you’re away. Within the client's home, I do everything I can to make their pets feel safe, seen, and loved. I know how important it is to maintain their routine and environment, especially for pets who thrive on familiarity. I take time to build trust, go at their pace, and make sure they feel comfortable with me in their space. Whether it’s a quick drop-in, extended visit, or overnight stay, I’m respectful of both your home and your pet’s boundaries. I always follow instructions carefully, provide updates along the way, and make sure your pet is happy, secure, and well cared for while you’re away. For the health and safety of your pet, I kindly ask that clients provide their own grooming tools — including brushes, combs, nail clippers, styptic powder, and any other essentials your pet is familiar with. Using your pet’s personal tools helps prevent the spread of bacteria, and ensures a safe, and hygienic experience. Your pet’s safety and your peace of mind are always my top priorities.
About: Dogs have been in my life since I was a kid, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. Over the years, I’ve had the joy of looking after dogs with all kinds of personalities and needs: • Gator, my grandma’s goofy orange lab, who loved carrying giant rocks and playing in the water. • A shar-pei with big “Stanley-from-The-Office” energy, who needed daily walks and, later in life, extra care with meals and medication. • My parents’ pitbull, who I raised from the puppy stage and helped train—my most challenging and rewarding experience! These experiences taught me patience, responsibility, and how to adapt to each dog’s unique needs. I’m reliable, attentive, and genuinely love spending time with dogs (and I think they can tell!). I am currently doing freelance work and studying from home which means If there is WiFi, I am more than happy to stay at a place to be attentive with the pet and also keep them company. When I care for a pet I make sure they feel safe with me in their home, I let them warm up to me and I make sure they know that I am a friend by giving them their favorite treat. I prefer to meet pet before hand. If it’s a dog I avoid other dogs on walks and even if encouraged or recommended, I do not take them to the dog park. When in my care I want them to be safe and I know that can get tricky with other pups so I avoid it all around.
“Elyse was amazing! Our normal dog walker bailed on us last minute, so we needed someone fast. Elyse went above and beyond making sure our dogs were comfortable with her and had great communication with us. She is super sweet and our pitties love her!!!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all sizes and personalities for over three years. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and care for their pets while they’re away. I’m patient, attentive, and make sure each pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable. I have experience following feeding schedules, giving basic care, and providing extra attention to puppies and senior dogs. I always treat pets as if they were my own. I’m currently a nursing student, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to pet care. I’m available during weekdays and weekends and can adjust my routine to fit your pet’s needs. I enjoy spending quality time with pets, making sure they get attention, playtime, and consistent care throughout the day. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow all care instructions, including feeding schedules, routines, and any special needs. I keep a clean, calm environment and make sure pets are always supervised and secure. As a nursing student, I’m attentive, responsible, and comfortable monitoring behavior changes and overall well-being. I treat every pet with patience, respect, and love.
About: Hi, my name is Taylor! I’ve had more pets than I can count throughout my life: dogs, turtles, hermit crabs, guinea pigs, frogs, and fish! I absolutely love caring for animals and will treat your pets like my own. I love spending days walking around Lake Merritt and I live very close to a park that I take my own dog to so your pups will definitely be well exercised here! I live in a beautiful apartment complex that is pet friendly and also live on the first floor so that makes emergency potty breaks super easy breezy. Please let me know if you have any questions about what I am able to do for you and your puppy, looking forward to hearing from you! I work part time so I have plenty of time to spend with your pup! I’ll make sure they are comfy, and have all of their needs met like a nice & full belly! Long walks are never a problem here I’m very flexible and find it very easy to adjust to different pet care instructions. I can provide all the stimulation your pup needs and will always send pics.

“Sharon took great care of Cain, especially given a recent health concern that popped up for him right before we were leaving for our trip. I felt that he was comfortable and in great care!”
“Asha was a saving grace for us! Our river cancelled 2 days before we left for a week long trip and Asha made sure we were comfortable! Although we couldn’t squeeze in a meet and greet, we were able to FaceTime prior to drop off and that really made us feel a lot better. Asha was communicating the whole way through and sent so many videos and pictures! Rosie seemed like she didn’t want to leave! She has a massive yard too and took them out for beautiful walks! I highly recommend Asha and will be booking again in the future. She’s phenomenal!”

About: I grew up with 6 pit bulls, taking sun baths with them in my backyard. I’ve volunteered in SF SPCA and donate monthly. My best friend aka Herita is a rescue, she’s been with me for over 3 years now. I believe animals have taught me how to love unconditionally and responsibly. Calm, trust and safety are my top priorities. I hope you give me the chance to connect with you and your fur baby/ babies. I work from home. I normally take Hera on a walk every morning for about 30 mins. Come back and hit the gym. After that I’m free. I can always head over in the am, afternoon or evenings. I have a fenced yard, Herita is spayed and loves to play with other dogs. Her bff is a 3 y/o Doberman. Which I take care of a couple of times a week (take her out on walks and feed her)
“My dog was so chill when I came to pick her up. She didn't want to leave. I have never seen her so content with someone else. I trust Astrid and her family and thank them from the bottom of my heart for such a good stay. It makes me so comfortable to know my baby is safe with them.”
“HY and Arlo took great care of our 1.5 yr old fluffball Rocky for a few days. HY sent us photos and updates regularly, which I appreciated very much. We felt at ease and trusted that Rocky was in good hands. I highly recommend Hy and Arlo!”
“Kristen and Ryan were incredibly warm and accommodating when first meeting my small and nervous doggie. They showed their home and clearly demonstrated a level of care and experience that gave me a lot of comfort and would definitely rebook. They were also attentive of how our dogs interacted and made sure they experienced little to no distress. Highly recommend their services 🩷”
“Kathryn, Christopher, and their family were so kind and accommodating to my dog, Riley over the holiday. I received pictures and updates on how he was settling in. I would absolutely go to them for pet care and boarding again, and would recommend them with no hesitation. Thanks for caring for my sweet old guy!”
“Kennia and her dog were great with our dog. She took the time to understand our dog’s specific needs and preferences, ensuring he felt at home right away. We appreciated the daily updates and photos, which put our minds at ease during our trip. Our dog returned happy and well-cared for, and I’m sure he’s missing them.”
“Laura was awesome! She sent daily updates and pics and I could see that Finn was having a great time and well loved while I was away. I’d definitely trust Laura again anytime to care for Finn ❤️”
“Maria & Kevan along with their wonderful girls were amazing petsitters for our Labrador Retreiver, Louie. From the moment I dropped off Louie and met them, I could tell he was going to be completely comfortable, well-cared for, and loved for the duration of his 10 day stay with their family. Receiving a photo or two of Louie each day was amazing and it was heartwarming to see Louie so happy getting lots of snuggles, playtime with his toys, neighborhood walks, and peaceful naps at their feet. Thank you so much to Maria & Kevan and their daughters for making Louie feel like a part of their family! Louie can't wait to visit again!”
