“I’m so glad to have found Hy and Arlo! My dog Neko can be shy with new people and reactive toward other dogs, so I was nervous about leaving her with a dog sitter. Hy met with us in advance and was extremely patient and understanding of Neko’s issues. She understood the need to keep Neko away from other dogs and was so gentle and sweet with her. She was great at communicating and sent plenty of pictures and updates during Neko’s stay. I’m planning to leave Neko with them again this summer and know she will be in good hands!”
“Our pup Lenny had a fantastic time staying with Chad for a weekend! Chad was flexible and easy to communicate with, and he sent updates and photos. Chad’s house always seems to have a few dogs staying there, which was perfect for Lenny as he is very social. He really seemed to enjoy his stay, we have already booked another boarding with Chad in a couple months!”
“Rob was amazing with our fur baby Uni!!! He was very easy to communicate with, gave updates with pictures, and is trustworthy and friendly. Our Uni had an amazing time!! I would definitely recommend Rob and look forward to using him again in the future!”
“Megan and Jenny were amazing! They watched our dog, Beni, while we were out of the country for over two weeks for vacation and sent us daily, adorable, photo updates of him relaxing and playing with the other dogs that overlapped with his stay. He came back happy and healthy and seemed to have the best time. We were joking that he got to go on a vacation too! Will definitely book them to watch Beni again.”
“Awesome! She wore my puppy out and she was so happy when I picked her up. Her two dogs are also super sweet and Ruthy does an excellent job with all the dogs she sits! definitely an awesome sitter!”
“Lee was SO sweet and took great care of my dog for a couple of days. She sent regular pupdates and was really responsive. I was nervous because my dog doesn’t spend much time with other dogs at all and Lee was willing to do a meet and greet and we let the dogs meet and get acclimated to the space a few days before her actual stay. Can’t say thank you enough and would definitely rebook in the future!”
“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!”
“Alex did a great job looking after our dog for 3 weeks. We received regular updates and pictures throughout the trip which made us feel at ease She is quick with communications when coordinating pickup/dropoff. Overall we had a great experience and would book with Alex again!”
“Ying is a wonderful dog sitter. She took care of our 75lbs Shepard mix and sent us fun photos and generally cared about his well being. We hope she’s available the next time we need a sitter!”
“I could tell Tiara has a real love for animals and takes great care of the fur babies she boards. My puppy came back to me tired out from the amount of fun that she had playing with the kittens Tiara was fostering. With the continued picture updates and communication, I felt a real ease knowing my baby was in good hands. Many thanks, Tiara.”
“This was our 4th booking with Anthony and Nikita. We know that our dog will get loving, careful care, and there will be daily updates and photos. It's a weight off our minds to know he's in good hands.”
“Great experience with Robyn. My dog Barley was very happy when I picked him up. Robyn updated me with pictures while we were away. He was exercised regularly and taken care of really well. Super happy with his care.”
“I could not be more pleased and appreciative of how well Kristen and Ryan took care of my Solo. This is the longest I have been out of town in a while and I wanted Solo to be in a comfortable and secure place and with people that will look after her as if she was their own. Kristen and Ryan did that for sure. They kept me well informed of how Solo was doing and it really looked like Solo enjoyed her time with them. I highly recommend Kristen and Ryan and will defiantly book any future pet sitting I need with them.”

“Our Miss Lexie had a wonderful stay. Chawntea treated our baby girl like family. She made new furry friends, which helps her socialization skills. Chawntea was so flexible with our ever-changing travel plans. Shout out to Southwest. She sent updates and pics while we were away, which brought smiles to our faces. Without a doubt, we will be using her services in the future.”
“Lacey was fantastic with my very big & cuddly dog, who also has severe separation anxiety. He was clearly in good hands! Though it was only for one overnight we will definitely be working with Lacey & her family again!!”
About: As a dog owner myself, I understand that pets are family. Whether it's keeping up with an energetic puppy, providing patience and comfort for a senior dog, or sticking to your pet's routine, I make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for. I'm reliable, communicative, and committed to giving pet parents peace of mind while they're away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, especially during the summer. As an Athletic Director on summer break, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. Whether it's walks, playtime, feeding, check-ins, or simply providing companionship, I can be available throughout the day to ensure your pet receives the care, exercise, and attention they deserve. I focus on creating a safe, comfortable, and stress-free environment for every pet. In a client's home, I follow their pet's normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications (if needed), and plenty of attention and affection. If caring for pets in my home, I provide a clean, pet-friendly space with regular exercise, supervision, and opportunities for play and relaxation. My goal is to make pets feel secure, loved, and well cared for while giving owners peace of mind through reliable communication and updates.

“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.”
About: i have always grown up with at least one cat. they are my favorite animal! i have experience with almost everything to do with the cats. giving them medicine, meals, treats, cleaning litter boxes, playing. i know their behaviors very well and when they need space or they feel overwhelmed. i understand that they are usually less playful than dogs and to be more cautious and gentle with them!
“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!!”
About: I’ve spent much of my life caring for cats and genuinely love earning their trust. I’ve had cats of my own, from raising a kitten to caring for an adult cat, and I’ve looked after cats of all ages, from playful kittens to senior cats with extra needs. Over the years I’ve cared for as many as four cats at once and completed cat sits lasting up to eight weeks, so I’m comfortable settling into each cat’s routine. Whether your cat is social and wants constant company, shy and prefers their space, or even enjoys leash walks (yes, I’ve happily walked a cat before!), I’m happy to meet them where they are. I have experience with indoor-only and indoor/outdoor cats, and I know how important consistency is for their comfort. I’ll make sure litter boxes stay clean, meals are on schedule, medications and special instructions are followed carefully, and you’ll receive thoughtful updates while you’re away. While I’m new to Rover, I’m not new to caring for cats. My goal is simple: to give you peace of mind while you’re away and make sure your cat feels safe, comfortable, and loved until you return.

About: Hello! My name is Mary. I am a lifelong pet owner and animal enthusiast. I grew up on a horse farm with dogs, cats, horses, hamsters, and the odd rogue toad, so caring for animals with love and respect is literally second nature. I'm a somatic embodiment coach by trade, so I have a unique skill set for helping animals feel relaxed and comfortable in my care. I have joyously fostered 20+ dogs and cats in their transition to forever homes, and have extensive experience with house and pet sitting. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and breeds, from 6 pound little weasels to 80 pound gentle giants. I have a special place in my heart for seniors (and have experience caring for them.) I am comfortable and experienced with administering medication. Because I work from home online and over zoom, I can accommodate animals that need a shorter window of alone time. I'd be delighted to treat your fur family with all the love and care I would give my own. I look forward to hearing from you! I have my own online business, so my schedule is very fluid and flexible. I love walking dogs and can easily do day or evening walks and stop-bys. I have experience with staying in many different homes and I know that every animal has its own unique routines, needs and rituals that help it feel in flow. I'm very happy to work with your pet in the way they are used to.
“Haylee was awesome! She set-up a meet and greet prior to us leaving on our trip. She was accommodating to our schedule and very easy to work with. Our two cats really warmed up to her quickly. She went out of her way to do extra tasks, bring in the trash, packages and water my flower pots. I would not hesitate hiring Haylee in the future.”
“Anais took great care of our little kitty Mini. Mins has kidney cancer and needs an injection every night and some extra love and care. She was a happy girl when we got home. We highly recommend Anais.”
About: I am a dog lover and lived with dogs my whole life. I have taken care of dogs on and off for the past 8 years including boarding, house-stays, and walks. I currently have pretty flexible schedule and can make my hours fit for you - if there is a time conflict I will make sure to inform you and propose another time (if applicable). I cannot currently board dogs in my home (my dog is going through cancer treatment), but I am happy to do house-stays or walks. I ensure pets have their boundaries respected and I will ask plenty of questions to understand your pet’s personality and potential reactivity.
“Sydney was terrific! She took great care of my cats and provided pictures and feedback every day. We were able to relax, and enjoy our vacation knowing our kitties were in great hands with Sydney. I recommend her highly, and will definitely book her again!”
“Melina did such a great job drooping in and feeding my elderly cat, Momo. She was prompt with timing and sent lots of pictures and updates. I could tell that Momo really liked her 🥰 would definitely recommend Melina to anyone!!”
“Iris cared for our nearly 19 year old kitty recently. Iris was attentive to her unique medical and food needs and sent us daily pictures of our beloved BHussy. We were concerned B would lose weight while we were gone and she did not, thanks to Iris! We definitely would use Iris again.”
“Lucy was absolutely wonderful! She was communicative throughout the entire booking—quick to respond and always kept us updated with the cutest photos. She followed all instructions carefully, and my cat HaoHao was happy and well cared for. We felt at ease knowing Lucy was looking after her. Will definitely be booking again!”

“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.”
“Baxter has stayed Andrea and her pups twice for daycare, with hopefully more days to come! Andrea has a gentle, kind spirit and seems very attuned to a dog's needs. At our meet & greet, she asked great questions about Baxter and his routines. She provided fun updates with pics a few times a day -- much appreciated!”
“Alison was really nice, and my dog was drawn to her right away at our meet and greet. She was really understanding with me as a first time app user, and made me feel safe about leaving my dog with a stranger for the first time. She handled my dogs separation anxiety really well and sent me updates so I wouldn't worry. I would definitely book again.”
“Shannon was a great communicator from the start and helped me out super last-minute when I was in a pinch with needing care for my pup. She was great with Lucy, shared photos and let me know all they had been up to. Lucy was happy when I picked her up and slept really great that night. Shannon was professional, super attentive, and her schedule flexibility is so appreciated!! I’m glad I found her and Rocky and look forward to Lucy getting to spend more time with them!”
“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!”
“I had a great experience with Korin! I left Maru with her for a few hours while we went out for a late dinner. Our dinner ran a little longer than expected, but she was so understanding and patient. We really appreciated their flexibility and kindness. Would definitely book with them again! ❤️”
“Huey loves going to Ruthy's! He always walks into her place confidently. She takes the dogs to the park at least twice a day, works on training, cuddles with him and socializes him with other people. I'm SO lucky to have found her! She treats Huey like he's her own. Thank you Ruthy!! ”
About: Hey my names Kenneth de arman , I have large amounts of knowledge on dog psychology and physiology. I have trained dogs for 9 years and have cared for numerous animals since I was 10. I have owned large dogs and small breeds. Also have owned an abundance of reptiles. I am certified in explosive detection. I specialize in obedience, socialization, behavior modification and I raised American Bullys for 8 years. I have owned a large number of dogs over 27 years. There isn’t anything that’s to much for me. What sets me apart of other people is that I work with all breeds but specifically working dogs. I am confident and have trained dogs from start to finish. If you need any help or have any questions I’d be more than welcome to answer them for you. I am available for drop in the am and pick up time around 5pm. I am never discouraged when it comes to caring for an animal. I make time and I will always move my schedule around so that the animals can be happy. I have a fenced yard that is split, boarders have been placed along the fence. This is to prevent fence fighting or becoming territorial. I have large water bowls I keep 2 outside. I refill the water ever 2-3 hours a day. I clean the yard with a pooper scooper three times a day. I spray the yard with cleaner and fly spray. I do this everyday 7 days a week. My dogs are usually outside from morning till night. I give them walks in between the day and I train my malinois a lot due to their high drive( trainer for 9yrs) . Always entertaining them and giving them something to do is crucial.
About: I take pride in creating a calm, safe, and welcoming environment for both pets and the homes I care for. My approach is attentive and thoughtful—I pay close attention to routines, preferences, and small details that help animals feel secure and comfortable. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, administering medications, or simply providing companionship, I treat every pet with patience, empathy, and genuine care. Experience-wise I have been a cat owner since I was a small child, have experience fostering litters of kittens, and currently have 2 adult Balinese of my I care for since they were 4 months old. I have experience caring for geckos (feeding live crickets!), hamsters, and bird care. I am also mom to doodle half-siblings, caring for them since they were puppies. I’m respectful of the homes I’m trusted with. I practice the "leave things better than you found them" mantra by keeping spaces clean and organized, following instructions accurately, and communicating regularly as scheduled so owners feel confident and worry-free while they’re away. Reliability and consistency are important to me. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your home and pets in someone else’s hands. Above all, I truly enjoy building connections—with both pets and their people—and making sure everything runs smoothly so you can have peace of mind. Contact me to discuss your care needs! I'm currently working part-time which leaves me flexible to schedule care for your pets and home. I am also available to handle small projects or home tasks, run errands, and organize spaces as needed. Please ask me and we will discuss your needs. I am happy to schedule regular dog walks, play dates or overnight care in your home for your dogs. I am also available to schedule cat check-ins/playtime. My goal is for you to return to a home and/or pet better/happier than you left it.
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)
“Michelle & Mandar were so patient helping our young terrier mix get used to daycare for the first time. They sent reassuring pictures and videos or her playing with another dog and getting pets from the family. We are hoping to rebook for boarding in the future!”
“It was last minute searching for a dog sitter. Dacyl responded my request pretty quickly and invited my dogs to meet her dog before I decided. She was very sweet with Jet and Luna and sent me several photos and messages. They had a great time with her. Thank you, Dacyl!”
About: We know what it feels like to try to find a good pet sitter and leave a fur baby in someone else's care. We live with two teens, we have experience with senior dogs and cats (as well as chickens and rabbits) and with medicine administration to ill dogs. We will only ever book one household at a time (unless you have a special request). Mike grew up with dogs, Nicola grew up with cats, and we have had a family rabbit, chickens, and dog in recent years. We have just welcomed a trained service dog into our household as of August 2026. For everyone's comfort and safety, please anticipate a meet and greet. We work from home and are flexible and ready to meet the needs of dogs visiting our home. If your pet needs care in your home, we will make sure to meet the schedule of care you provide. NOTE: As of September 2026, one of our family members has welcomed a TRAINED SERVICE DOG who is now part of our household. (A service dog is not like a typical pet, in that they are partnered with one individual, are extremely well trained, and very easy going with other humans and animals.) The yard is fenced, we can crate your dog if preferred, but just want your dog to feel safe and comfortable. If your pet needs care in your home, we will make sure to be considerate of your and your pet's spaces and routines.
“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”
“Lisa and Cameron were absolutely wonderful with Poe! We needed someone to watch him for a few hours over three consecutive days while we had construction happening at our house and my husband and I had unusual work schedules, and they were incredibly flexible and accommodating throughout the whole thing. Poe clearly had the best time staying with them: playing in their backyard, going on walks, and spending time with their family and kids. We have a baby on the way, so it was especially nice knowing he was getting some positive time around younger kids, and Lisa and Cameron said he did great with them. They also sent us adorable photos and videos every day, which we loved. Poe came home happy, tired, and ready for a very good sleep after getting so much attention and exercise! This was our first time having Lisa and Cameron watch Poe, but we would absolutely book with them again. They are such warm, friendly people and clearly great with dogs. We felt completely comfortable leaving Poe with them and highly recommend them!”
“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!”

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover with over 20 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs. I currently have a dog of my own and understand just how much our pets mean to us—they’re family. When I moved my dad to California so I could become his full-time caregiver, bringing his dog with us was never a question. He’s an important part of our family and daily life. I previously had another beloved dog from the age of 13 through 27, giving me experience with puppies, adult dogs, and seniors. I’m comfortable providing patient, attentive care and making sure each dog feels safe, loved, and well cared for while their owners are away. As someone who genuinely loves animals, I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet. Whether your dog needs a walk, playtime, or simply some extra companionship, I’ll treat them with the same care and attention I give my own. Pet care is already a natural part of my daily routine. I currently care for my own dog, so daily walks, feeding, playtime, and making sure he gets plenty of attention are already built into my schedule. Because I have a flexible schedule right now, I’m able to provide pets with extra attention, companionship, and care throughout the day rather than just fitting them in between other commitments. Whether it’s a walk, a drop-in visit, or keeping a pet company while their owner is away, I enjoy making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved. I believe every pet is happiest when their routine stays as consistent as possible. In a client’s home, I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medications (if needed), playtime, and any household rules. I also make sure pets receive plenty of attention, affection, and exercise while their owners are away. For walks and drop-in visits, I prioritize safety, communication, and making sure each pet’s individual needs are met. I understand that every animal has a different personality and comfort level, so I take the time to build trust and help them feel secure. As a pet owner myself, I know how important it is to have peace of mind when someone else is caring for your pet, and I treat every animal as if they were my own.
“Cristina was great! My dog can be a bit much on walks, since she is a high energy dog and can be reactive at times, but she seemed to manage her just fine! It was so convenient that she lived in my area. I would definitely recommend anyone, Loba took to her very quickly!”

About: I’ve had dogs for years and always look forward to help friends and family look after their pets. I enjoy looking after and bathing animals. I myself have 3 dogs and 3 guinea pigs so I genuinely love caring for animals. I work part time during nights so I’m available all day every day to love and care for your pets. I’m also in school but it’s mostly online. I follow instructions when caring for pets in other peoples homes because it’s their home so I want them to be comfortable and trust me coming into their space.
“Jacalyn is fabulous! When we first met she was so attentive. Talking notes, asking questions. Our puppy loved her immediately. Very qualified , kind, communicative & punctually. Will definitely be using her again”
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: Greetings! I'm Patrick. I've done a bunch of pet and house sitting on another platform, as well as for family, friends and acquaintances, besides having my own pets or sharing them with past partners. I used to practice massage therapy and reiki. I bring a similar intention to handling pets that I brought to responding to clients needs. I'd like to do part-time pet care in the East Bay, with some availability to housesit for longer sits around the full Bay Area. I can be more spontaneous for pet care near Oakland depending upon the timing. For longer resident sits please try to give me a week or two notice with a request. I'll see what works. Thanks! What an honor it is to care for people's homes and pets! I feel excited to transition my pet and house-sitting to this platform. Thanks for your consideration. I enjoy caring for pets and homes. I appreciate the trust-building process, staying accountable and growing as a person, all which these experiences foster. I intend to be a respectful well-communicating sitter and to provide a safe fun atmosphere for your pets. I appreciate receiving questions and feedback during a video chat or in person meet and greet where we get to know each other.
“Jonathan was fantastic with Roman this weekend! His communication was excellent from start to finish. He kept me updated throughout the walk and sent photos and videos so I could see Roman having a great time. He also made sure Roman was fed and taken care of exactly as instructed. It's clear Jonathan genuinely cares about the pets he looks after, and I felt completely at ease knowing Roman was in good hands. Would absolutely book him again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable, attentive rover!”
About: Animals have always been a big part of my life. I've cared for pets of all sizes: from large malamutes and energetic huskies to cats, rabbits, fish, and even turtles. I have experience with a wide variety of personalities, temperaments, and care needs, and I take pride in following your care instructions exactly as requested. If your pet requires a specialized diet, medication, extra patience, or simply their favorite play routine, I'll make sure they receive the attentive care they deserve. During visits, I'll provide plenty of attention and playtime, keep food and water fresh, clean litter boxes, tidy up any messes, and make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I work from home most days of the week and have a flexible schedule that allows me to take breaks throughout the day to make time for your pet. My goal is to keep your pet's routine as normal as possible and make them safe and reduce stress while you're away. I'll let them take the lead as we get to know each other.

“I’m so glad to have found Hy and Arlo! My dog Neko can be shy with new people and reactive toward other dogs, so I was nervous about leaving her with a dog sitter. Hy met with us in advance and was extremely patient and understanding of Neko’s issues. She understood the need to keep Neko away from other dogs and was so gentle and sweet with her. She was great at communicating and sent plenty of pictures and updates during Neko’s stay. I’m planning to leave Neko with them again this summer and know she will be in good hands!”
“Nicola and Michael were wonderful with Jupiter. He has special needs since birth and gets tired easily. Jupiter came home happy and not over tired. Also, I received photos everyday, which was great. I am so appreciative..”
“Our pup Lenny had a fantastic time staying with Chad for a weekend! Chad was flexible and easy to communicate with, and he sent updates and photos. Chad’s house always seems to have a few dogs staying there, which was perfect for Lenny as he is very social. He really seemed to enjoy his stay, we have already booked another boarding with Chad in a couple months!”
“Megan and Jenny were amazing! They watched our dog, Beni, while we were out of the country for over two weeks for vacation and sent us daily, adorable, photo updates of him relaxing and playing with the other dogs that overlapped with his stay. He came back happy and healthy and seemed to have the best time. We were joking that he got to go on a vacation too! Will definitely book them to watch Beni again.”
“Rob was amazing with our fur baby Uni!!! He was very easy to communicate with, gave updates with pictures, and is trustworthy and friendly. Our Uni had an amazing time!! I would definitely recommend Rob and look forward to using him again in the future!”
“Alex did a great job looking after our dog for 3 weeks. We received regular updates and pictures throughout the trip which made us feel at ease She is quick with communications when coordinating pickup/dropoff. Overall we had a great experience and would book with Alex again!”
“Natasha took good care of Kona and gave us a detailed update multiple times with photos for the night we had Kona over at hers. She understood his personality and was able to help him get familiar with his new environment quick and be a snuggle buddy that he is. Sage was also friendly and got along with him as we saw them going on walks together on the photos. Loved it for Kona that he got to experience Sage and his mama! Kona will for sure be back. Thanks Natasha!”
“Ying is a wonderful dog sitter. She took care of our 75lbs Shepard mix and sent us fun photos and generally cared about his well being. We hope she’s available the next time we need a sitter!”
“Awesome! She wore my puppy out and she was so happy when I picked her up. Her two dogs are also super sweet and Ruthy does an excellent job with all the dogs she sits! definitely an awesome sitter!”
“I could not be more pleased and appreciative of how well Kristen and Ryan took care of my Solo. This is the longest I have been out of town in a while and I wanted Solo to be in a comfortable and secure place and with people that will look after her as if she was their own. Kristen and Ryan did that for sure. They kept me well informed of how Solo was doing and it really looked like Solo enjoyed her time with them. I highly recommend Kristen and Ryan and will defiantly book any future pet sitting I need with them.”
“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!”
“Lacey was fantastic with my very big & cuddly dog, who also has severe separation anxiety. He was clearly in good hands! Though it was only for one overnight we will definitely be working with Lacey & her family again!!”
“I had such a great experience boarding my dog, Skye, over Thanksgiving week. From start to finish, the care was outstanding. Skye immediately felt comfortable, and I could tell he was in good hands the entire time. I received regular updates, including photos and messages, which gave me total peace of mind while I was away. The environment was clean, safe, and welcoming, and it was clear that Skye was treated like part of the family. He came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well-loved. I highly recommend Astrid to anyone looking for reliable, caring, and attentive dog boarding. I’ll definitely book again in the future!”
About: Hiya, I'm Peter! I've cared for dogs for as long as I can remember, and have since provided countless hours of pet-care of friends, family, friends of the family, and families of friends! I have years of experience doing walks, play, feeding, bathing, clean-up and more. I have experience with excitable breeds like a neighbor's golden doodle to my family's mellowed-out portugese water doggies, along with senior care. I see animal care as a privilege. Our pets are no less than little bundles of feelings and life that we are given the opportunity to cherish. I have been told on multiple occasions that I am able to calm animals unusually quickly, and I feel that I am attuned to the emotions of animals I care for. I would love to opportunity to provide care to your pet! I work from home in a low-speed position, so I have a flexible schedule for your pets' needs. Normally, I would do a morning and afternoon walk, with potty breaks peppered whenever they need. I can also step away from my work at a moment's notice if anything arises, from entertaining a bored doggie to foiling attempted counter surfing! I have a paved yard for sunbathing and potty breaks, the door to which I work right next to. I live near Lake Merritt, the Morcom Rose Garden, and a dog park, so I can provide walks of all lengths. My home is very cozy and has multiple spaces where an animal can detox from any overstimulation. I can provide a dog crate, scheduled meals, supervision, and play.
“Kennia watched my sweet Moose for the first time this weekend. She asked questions if unsure about how I would do something (like can he be off leash, etc.) which I appreciated so much! She also sent pictures of Moose to help comfort me while away from him. I’ll absolutely use Kennia again :)”
“Great experience with Robyn. My dog Barley was very happy when I picked him up. Robyn updated me with pictures while we were away. He was exercised regularly and taken care of really well. Super happy with his care.”
“Daryl and Andrew were wonderful. They were patient, warm, and very caring with our pup Loki. In addition, they were gracious in enabling us to slightly shift pick up time at the last minute. I would highly recommend them.”
