“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!”
“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.”
“Van Joseph and Matthew were fabulous dog sitters. They treated our dog like one of their own and gave her lots of attention. They were very communicative, sending frequent photo and video updates. We recommend them highly and will book with them again.”
“Albina took great care of Abby. This was my very first time leaving her with a sitter and I was a very anxious momma! Albina was patient with me and put my anxiety at ease with ongoing communication, pictures, and videos. I would definitely recommend Albina!”
“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.”
“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.”
“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!”
“Sherry is an AMAZING dog sitter!! I trusted her to care for my sweet but nervous 50lb girl, Ellie, and I could not have asked for a better sitter. Sherry was so thorough, she sent plenty of updates throughout and put me at ease! She was super responsive to my dog’s needs, and I could see Ellie just melting and falling in love with her through the updates. She’s got a lovely, clean and safe apartment and she is obviously someone who knows dogs well. I would trust Sherry with dog sitting ANY day! Highly recommend.”
“Andrea is wonderful! She’s so kind and caring with my little dog. He wasn’t feeling 100% when I dropped him off. She took extra good care of him, made sure he got plenty of rest, and sent me lots of updates and photos. Excellent experience and I will definitely call on her again. Thanks!!!”
“Maia was a wonderful sitter - super communicative and caring! She sent multiple updates and photos while we were away and went way above and beyond in making sure Lula had enough exercise and playtime! I highly recommend her!”
“I had a very positive experience with Chen boarding my pup Bernie for a few days. Bernie is a well behaved dog, but he has a few needs that Chen took on willingly. He also took the time to meet with me and Bernie ahead to make sure all his needs were understood. It is clear to me that Chen loves pets and treats them with care. He sent me many updates reflecting his attention to Bernie's comfort and sense of feeling at home and with family. He also sent many stellar photos. Chen has a real talent there and I think also shows his adoration of the pets he cares for. Chen and his family were kind and warm to me and to Bernie and I reccomend him for you.”
“Danielle and Joel always do such an incredible job. They go way above and beyond what’s expected and it’s clear how much they love dogs. Can’t recommend Danielle for dog boarding enough.”
About: I offer a quieter, more individualized kind of dog sitting. I only take dogs from one household at a time, so your dog won’t be sharing the space with a rotating group of other dogs. That allows me to give them a lot of individual attention and to keep their routine as familiar as possible. I’m a licensed acupuncturist and a therapist in training, so being reliable and observant is a big part of my professional life. I’m also very conscientious about following your instructions closely. I know how much the little details matter, and I make a point of keeping track of feeding schedules, medications, walks, sleeping arrangements, and the routines that help your dog feel at home. I have firsthand experience caring for an anxious dog who later developed dementia and physical limitations. Because of that, I’m especially comfortable with senior dogs and dogs who are sensitive or easily overwhelmed. I understand how much patience and consistency can matter when a dog needs extra support. I’m especially available on weekends, when I can spend plenty of time with your dog rather than fitting visits around a packed schedule. Depending on their personality and energy level, we might have a quiet day at home, take neighborhood walks, or head out to places like Piedmont Park, the Albany Bulb, or the beach. I want your dog to feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away, and I want you to feel completely confident that someone is really paying attention to them. Pet care fits best into my schedule on weekends, when I have plenty of time to give dogs attention, walks, companionship, and a relaxed home environment. I’m generally available from Friday evening through Sunday and can often accommodate weekend boarding or daytime care. During the week I work a regular professional schedule, so I’m intentional about only accepting bookings when I know I can provide the time and attention a pet needs. When a dog is staying with me, I want them to be part of my routine rather than squeezed into it. I take safety and trust seriously and make a point of following each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible. In my home, I provide a calm, comfortable environment and make sure dogs have appropriate supervision, regular walks and potty breaks, fresh water, and plenty of attention. I’m careful about feeding instructions, medications, leash safety, and any behavioral or health concerns you share with me. I also like to know about a dog’s personality, triggers, routines, and preferences ahead of time so I can help them feel comfortable and settled. If I’m caring for a pet in your home, I’m respectful of your space and follow your instructions closely. I’m also happy to send updates and photos so you know how your pet is doing while you’re away.
“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!”
“Such an amazing experience thanks to Kani - from the get-go she was so friendly and totally open to my erratic drop-off and pick up hours (thanks work and Southwest Airlines schedules!) and her resident pooch - Mr Prince - is just the sweetest. She coped with my pup being on meds and needing to maintain a low level of activity owing to an injury and sent loads of photo updates - leading me to worry that my dog wouldn't want to come home as she was having such a wonderful time! I will definitely book again and am already working out when Lexie can stay with her for daycare - thank you so much!”
“Thais and Marlene were great. They took great care of Harry while we were out for 10 days visiting family for the holidays. Thais was very responsive to us and sent photos regularly with updates on how Harry was doing. A great experience overall.”
“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!”
“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.”

“Bryanna was A-MAZ-ZING. she sent me multiple updates a day along with photos and videos. My kitty can get sad and low energy when I travel, so it was so nice to see her engage burger with playtime and toys! My house was super clean after she left so will 100% be hiring Bryanna again!”
“This is my first time booking Rover for my 2 kitties and I’m so glad to have gone with Nandini! She’s been super accommodating with my last minute booking and also very caring and sweet to my babies. It didn’t take them long to open up at all ☺️ she’s very reliable and also shared the cutest check-in photos of them. I’d definitely book with her again when I’m out of town!”
About: I have my doctorate in clinical psychology and love animals. I am not allowed to have my own pet so I love to pet sit! I am currently transitioning from internship to post doc and have a lot of time on my hands. Flexible in scheduling and happy to help when needed! I always make sure to follow the instructions left by the owner & give lots and lots of care and love to the pet I am sitting!
“Cyvanah did a wonderful job taking care of our kitty. Made sure he was well fed, clean, and had lots of activity. Great communication, followed all notes, great photos!!”
“This was our 4th time booking Reijun to watch our cat and she was fantastic again! Always so reliable and communicative, she sends lots of photos and videos to keep us updated! Our cat loves her even though she’s normally very shy, and even sat on her lap this time!!”
“Chloe made the pet-sitting experience super easy and stress-free! She accommodated a very early start time and administered meds to my cat with no trouble. She was extremely communicative and friendly and clearly cares very much about caring for animals and brings that presence into her role. Will definitely be booking again, thank you Chloe!”
“This is our second time booking with Celeste, and she’s so amazing with our 4 cats. We’re always kept informed with detailed updates of their daily routine, and we can tell through the photo and video updates that our boys feel relaxed, comfortable, and happy around her.”
About: I've been around and taken care of cats for over 7 years, and I also have a 4 year old cat of my own named Mango! Because I'm a long time cat owner, I really know how to read their body language and understand their moods, whether they want to play, snuggle, or just need some space. I’m super clean and detail oriented when it comes to scooping litter, keeping things fresh, and sticking to feeding routines (I’m very familiar with premium diets and raw/freeze, dried food, too!). I know how much cats love their comfort zones, so I’ll make sure your kitty feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I'll treat them just like my own!
“Emilia Laura was an absolutely wonderful cat sitter. She took exceptional care of Roo and Tigger over Christmas, making sure they were happy, loved, and well looked after. She went above and beyond by repotting my dying orchid to try and save it, and even brought extra toys to keep the cats entertained. This level of care and thoughtfulness is exactly what she’s shown on all her previous visits as well. I always feel completely at ease knowing my cats are in such caring and reliable hands. Highly recommend Emilia Laura to anyone looking for a truly dedicated pet sitter.”
About: I adore cats, but most of the time they don't warm up to people right away. I am very patient and a quiet presence for them to feel more and more comfortable with me. I always want to set eyes on them at least once a drop by, but I make sure they don't feel like they need to come out of hiding spots into "unsafe environments".
About: I am patient, dependable, and treat every cat like my own. I know that every cat is different, so I take the time to help them feel safe and comfortable. I can care for kittens, senior cats, and cats with special needs, including giving oral medication and following special feeding instructions. I also provide updates and photos so you can relax knowing your cat is in good hands.

“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!”

“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!! ”
“Alejandra is the best! She took such good care of MoMo and sent me photos & updates throughout the day. This is my 3rd booking with her and my trust in her grows each time - Tysm Alejandra!”
“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!”
“Brittany was really nice and our dog Burt seemed to do really well with her! At drop off he just went right with her! He got a few walks in and got along with Brittany's dog Basco. Burt generally prefers chill-er companions and it seems like Basco was that. Would definitely return to Brittany for future care.”
“Another great day with Tamara and Sidney! My puppy bounds out of the car when we show up at her house and comes home happy, tired, and well-taken care of. She is amazing!”
About: *I only board pets from one home at a time and do not own any pets myself!* I love to jog around Lake Merritt, and I'd be happy to take your fur baby along for a run! I've cared for dogs and cats, healthy and sick, with very specific dietary restrictions and activity needs. I wish I could have my own pet, but since I travel pretty often, this is the next best thing. :-) I’m a Product Manager with a hybrid work schedule. Rest assured, I can easily get from work to home on in-office days for walks/drop-ins if needed. I also work at a dog friendly office. I am available most days for drop-ins 2x/day. On weekday evenings, I typically go on runs (with/without dogs!). Expect many photos of your fur baby while you're away! I'm happy to drop in to check on food, water, litter (for cats), and take your pup on walks. I am very detail oriented, so if you have very particular instructions regarding diet or preferences while outside, you can trust me to follow them. For boarding, I have bowls for water and food as well as doggy waste bags. You would need to provide their food, treats, toys, (litter for kitties), and anything else to make their stay more comfortable!
“I can not recommend Paul K more highly for care and advice about your dog. I was happy after our meet and greet. I felt confident that Paul K would not only take great care of my pup, but that my pup would get exercise and social time during his stay with Paul K. Paul K showed up as good humored, highly skilled, and self assured. He shared both photos and observations during my pup's stay. As a first time dog owner, I was initially worried about trusting someone else with my pup's care but I was quickly relieved upon meeting Paul K and able to focus on work that day.”

About: Hello! My name is Shanna (like banana) a non-profit consultant based in the Bay Area. I love animals and have lots of experience caring for pets (cats and dogs) either in your home or at my house. I'm interested in helping you feel peace of mind knowing that your fur friend is taken care of. Please ask me any questions. I'm looking for opportunities that make sense with my schedule, and I'm happy to accommodate your needs. Thank you for your consideration. I'm currently working on a contract basis and primarily remote so I have time to stop by your home or house-sit as long as there is reliable Wi-Fi. Typically, when pet-sitting for friends, I will feed, walk, or change out litter boxes as often as needed. If I am not staying at the owner's home full-time, I will make sure the animal gets sufficient interaction and love daily. If an animal is staying in my home during the day, I have a fenced-in, locked yard (though I generally wouldn't have an animal outside without me) and there is also a dog-friendly park less than two blocks from my home.
About: I’ve been dog-sitting for about 5 years now. I’ve mainly taken care of small to medium sized dogs but I’m open to looking after larger dogs as well. I am very reliable and have a lot of energy to keep your dog entertained throughout the day. I love going for walks and and going to dog parks if allowed by the owner. I live in an apartment and it’s dog-friend and the apartment has a dog area where they can relieve themselves. I live in a studio apartment but there’s plenty of open space where your pup can lounge around. I’m very attentive of your dogs needs, so I stay on top of taking them out for walks and making sure their water bowl is kept full and following their feeding schedule. Also open to grooming and showering your dog, especially if they are staying overnight with me. If your pup is energetic and loves to play we will be a great match!!

“Ahmed Was amazimg with my dog. She fed her on time. Took her for ample walks and took great care of her overall. I would happily recommend Ahmed and she will be my permanent dog sitter from now!!”

“Angel was such a wonderful sitter, and a complete lifesaver! We needed care last minute and she was available. For our first time using Rover, I could not have asked for such a wonderful person. I'm so grateful for her constant communication and reassurance that our Tempi was doing good. Highly recommend her! And if available would love to continue having Tempi stay with her.”
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.

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.

“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 have a flexible schedule and am booking dog walks and drop-ins! I can accommodate for whether your dog likes more activity or needs a quiet and calm environment. I have experience dealing with dogs and other animals with anxiety and other medical or physical needs. I work from home at my own pace so I can accommodate different needs! Ideally, pet guests can be left at home alone for about an hour for errands and other events that come up. Please provide a crate if your dog cannot be left alone for over an hour. My home is responsible and dog safe with gates to prevent access to the kitchen. My yard is not fenced but I always keep dogs leashed.

“I had Reijun meet my pup Petunia for a meet and greet and Petunia was immediately comfortable with them. We walked around the neighborhood and Reijun was great with her and understood some of her quirks. She is a natural with dog walking and I knew Reijun would be a great fit. I plan to hire them for more walks!”
“MJ is absolutely wonderful! My dog, Mazie, immediately fell in love with her and they’ve become the best of friends after just a few walks. I’m a nurse and gone for 14 hour days, so I have MJ come over for two walks/playtime visits. By the time I get home from work, Mazie is pooped and ready for bed! I love that MJ provides photos of my happy girl and thorough details about her visits. She’ll even play and give treats and love to our cat. It’s evident just how much she loves and cares for animals, regardless of whether they’re her own. I’m so grateful to have found her!!!!”
“Esteban is the best! I was very afraid I would not find anyone to walk Piper as she is strong and slightly dog selective. Also certain dog folks do not want to walk her with a muzzle which is confusing to me, he has no issues with it. Esteban came for a meet and greet and it was a great fit! Piper has come home happy and exhausted! Can’t wait to grow our relationship with him! He’s the best!”
About: I was basically raised by Siberian huskies, and I've been taking care of cats and dogs my whole life. I have experience administering medicine and helping out shy or nervous pets. I have trained very young dogs before. I spent a year volunteering for Guide Dogs for the Blind just because I love being around dogs so much. I even know basic dog first aid in case of emergencies. Multiple dog owners have told me, "my dog doesn't like strangers but they love you!" I work part time running my own organization business with ad-hoc client appointments, but the rest of the time is available for your fur babies! I am very flexible, especially in the summer when my other job is slow. I live in an apartment in Jack London Square. I have a big fenced-in courtyard that's great for dog walks and generally empty of neighbors, plus a very dog-friendly neighborhood where I can take pups on nice long (and safe) walks. Two cats live in my home, but they're very friendly and used to other dogs and cats being around.
About: Hey there! I've had dogs my entire life, they are earth angels 😇 and it is a pleasure and honor to be able to care for them. I am available for sitting overnights at yours or my place anytime year round, as well as 1 hour walks on Tues/Weds/Thursdays. I have been professionally pet sitting for about 9 years and love it! I am capable of supporting any training you have going on and I use positive reinforcements. Experienced with many personalities and needs, I am a patient and reliable animal lover. While I am home 95% of the time, if they have severe separation anxiety, it is helpful and preferred if you provide anti-anxiety medication, as I do still have to step out briefly occasionally. My goal and priority is to make them as comfortable as possible while you're away, and to give you peace of mind that they are safe and happy! I live in an apartment with great natural light near Lake Merritt, making walks very accessible. I am highly attentive to their needs and our surroundings, and am a cuddle master. We can discuss and tailor as you see fit! I love cats and others also, so if a dog isn't your need, I got'cha! I check in with photos at least 2x a day- and can add or reduce based on your preferences. I'm passionate about eco-sustainability and regeneration, enjoying life, beautiful food, and overall wellness for everyone. I have a decent amount of flexibility, which allows me to be present the majority of the time to spend with them, and I'm a homebody. I am happy to work with your schedule. I'm affectionate, I communicate clearly, directly, and friendlily. With you and your animals. I am protective and highly intune with my surroundings and those in them. I follow your care instructions and make sure everyone has what they need!
“Lianne was terrific with my new puppy i will definitely be using her services again. It was my first time leaving my pup with someone and i was so reassured after getting Lianne’s report and seeing how happy my dog was when i got home. thank you!”
About: I work part-time but I love coming home to my 7-year-old dog Marley. I've grown up always having big dogs, but I prefer small dogs because of the size of my dog. I like to hike, go to the beach and go to the parks with my dog. I'm available to dog-sit on weekdays and most weekends if I'm not out of town. I will treat your dog(s) like my own... they will be spoiled with love. If your a doggy parent who needs updates while your pooch is under my care, I can do so! Everyone in my family has a dog, so we share the same love for canines as you do! I hope you find the pet care you need in me!
“Temitayo was super kind and thoughtful throughout the process. Successfully followed all my instructions and my dog is obsessed. I feel so relieved to have a consistent walker who is easygoing and bonded so quickly with my pup.”
“Greg’s amazing. This was my first experience with Greg and he was fantastic. Communicative, prompt, and June had a great walk and has been sleeping all day! I’ll be using Greg going forward!”
About: I will treat your fur baby with tender, loving care. Your animal or animals will always be safe and comfortable under my care and supervision. I'm currently working part-time and semi-retired, so I will have plenty of time and flexibility to help with your animal care needs. Let me know how I can help! I will be very clean and respectful while in any client's home and treat your home and your pets as if they were my own.
About: I love providing care that feels personal and full of joy. Animals have always been part of my life, and after years of experience, over 90 bookings and counting; I’ve learned that connection matters most. My goal is to engage and exhaust, because happy dogs are tired dogs. Every visit is about building trust and comfort. When families choose to rebook, it’s more than a service; it’s a relationship built on love, reliability, and understanding. Dogs become part of my daily routine rather than being placed into a kennel environment. My day is structured around consistency, exercise, and calm downtime, which helps many dogs settle in quickly and feel at home. Because I work from home and with a limited number of dogs I'm able to pay close attention to each dog's needs. High energy dogs receive appropriate exercise and engagement, while more relaxed dogs are given the space and quiet they prefer. My goal is simple: when you pick up your dog, I want the dog to seem like they had a great vacation of their own.

“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!”
“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.”
“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.”
About: I offer a quieter, more individualized kind of dog sitting. I only take dogs from one household at a time, so your dog won’t be sharing the space with a rotating group of other dogs. That allows me to give them a lot of individual attention and to keep their routine as familiar as possible. I’m a licensed acupuncturist and a therapist in training, so being reliable and observant is a big part of my professional life. I’m also very conscientious about following your instructions closely. I know how much the little details matter, and I make a point of keeping track of feeding schedules, medications, walks, sleeping arrangements, and the routines that help your dog feel at home. I have firsthand experience caring for an anxious dog who later developed dementia and physical limitations. Because of that, I’m especially comfortable with senior dogs and dogs who are sensitive or easily overwhelmed. I understand how much patience and consistency can matter when a dog needs extra support. I’m especially available on weekends, when I can spend plenty of time with your dog rather than fitting visits around a packed schedule. Depending on their personality and energy level, we might have a quiet day at home, take neighborhood walks, or head out to places like Piedmont Park, the Albany Bulb, or the beach. I want your dog to feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away, and I want you to feel completely confident that someone is really paying attention to them. Pet care fits best into my schedule on weekends, when I have plenty of time to give dogs attention, walks, companionship, and a relaxed home environment. I’m generally available from Friday evening through Sunday and can often accommodate weekend boarding or daytime care. During the week I work a regular professional schedule, so I’m intentional about only accepting bookings when I know I can provide the time and attention a pet needs. When a dog is staying with me, I want them to be part of my routine rather than squeezed into it. I take safety and trust seriously and make a point of following each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible. In my home, I provide a calm, comfortable environment and make sure dogs have appropriate supervision, regular walks and potty breaks, fresh water, and plenty of attention. I’m careful about feeding instructions, medications, leash safety, and any behavioral or health concerns you share with me. I also like to know about a dog’s personality, triggers, routines, and preferences ahead of time so I can help them feel comfortable and settled. If I’m caring for a pet in your home, I’m respectful of your space and follow your instructions closely. I’m also happy to send updates and photos so you know how your pet is doing while you’re away.
“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’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!”
“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.”
“Jake was so good with Luffy! Luffy loves Jake and was excited to go to daycare. This was my 2nd boarding and I felt reassured that Luffy was in good hands. Jake sent me lots of updates and the cutest pictures of Luffy. I personally would’ve loved some more , but I totally understand that it’s hard to remember when taking care of other dogs as well. Luffy had so much fun he slept the moment he got home!”
“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!”
“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!”
“Nikolai and his wife have a lot of experience watching after all breeds and sizes of dogs. My pup stayed with them along a large group of other pups over the holidays and we had an overall good experience with them. I was happy to know that our pup had plenty of friends to be with during his long stay.”
About: I’ve grown up with cats and kittens my whole life and continued adopting them as an adult — animals have always been at the heart of my home! I’ve raised and trained a puppy from 8 weeks old, cared for up to 3 medium-sized dogs at a time, and have experience housing and caring for rabbits, birds, and reptiles too. 🐶🐱🐰🦜🐸🦎 Your pet will be welcomed into a warm, loving home where they’ll be treated like family! I’m also a pet parent myself — my 1-year-old pup and 9-year-old cat are both incredibly friendly with people and other animals and absolutely love making new friends. They’re always excited to welcome new furry guests! 🐕🐈 I believe pet sitting is so much more than just filling a food bowl twice a day — it’s about being real company for your pet. Surrounded by cozy blankets, their favorite toys from home, and plenty of love, your pet will feel comfortable and right at ease from the moment they arrive. I’m happy to provide multiple daily walks and plenty of undivided attention throughout the day!
“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!”
“Robert and Brian, again, were wonderful with Nada. We feel quite comfortable leaving her with them and will absolutely leave her with them again. Thank you both ❤️”
“Angel is very responsive and shows great responsibility. She takes really good care of my cat. She likes Benjamin and Benjamin likes her. Thank you for accepting the book last minute!”
About: Starting eight years ago with our energetic all-black German Shepherd, I have spent the last eight years reliably watching dogs for family, friends, and neighbors. I am currently only working part time. I usually work various shifts betweeb 6 to 3. The days I work change as well. I still have a lot of free time in between. Just check in with me to see if my availability matches the time you are requesting. Im looking forward to taking care of your furry child. 😊 Living in an apartment with nearby dog parks, I offer attentive, active in-home care, utilizing my extensive free time and eight years of experience to provide long daily walks and personalized attention.
About: I’ve worked professionally with dogs since 2013 as a canine behavior consultant and dog trainer, and pet care is my full-time work. I provide boarding, training, and behavior consultations from my 1200 square foot, open floor plan, work/live Storehouse Lofts location, situated in Alameda Point. Because I work from home, dogs in my care aren’t left alone for a full workday, and I board only a limited number of dogs so each guest can settle in at their own pace in a calm, comfortable environment. I am PetTech certified in CPR and First Aid for pets. Every stay begins with a Meet & Greet to make sure it’s a good fit, and I provide regular photo updates so you can feel confident your dog is safe, comfortable, and well cared for. Dog care is my full-time profession, so your dog will spend the day with me rather than being left alone while I'm at another job. The longest I typically leave home is about two hours. The rest of the day is spent providing potty breaks, walks, play, enrichment, rest, and plenty of individual attention while keeping each dog's normal routine as consistent as possible. Boarding Hours & Pick-Up Policy: Boarding drop-offs and pick-ups are available between 8:00 AM and 8:00 PM. Pick-ups after 1:00 PM on the final day are billed at my standard daycare rate, regardless of the original drop-off time. I do not schedule pick-ups or drop-offs after 8:00 PM. If travel delays make an after 8:00 PM pickup unavoidable, your dog's stay will be extended until the following day, subject to availability. Your dog's safety and comfort are my highest priorities. My 1,200 square foot work/live loft is located in Storehouse Lofts, one of the Bay Area’s most dog-friendly work/live communities. The building features a private resident dog park just steps from my door as well as a complete, professionally outfitted dog bathing room (replete with with grooming tub and high velocity dryer). The building is newly renovated, and has an interesting history: it was formerly the general supply warehouse for the US Navy. It is located within Alameda Point, the name given to the massive redevelopment of the former Alameda Naval Air Station. The Alameda Point redevelopment project has turned this huge former military base into miles of safe and quiet walkable areas, waterfront parks and recreation spaces along with warehouses (like my building) and hanger spaces converted into a mix of small businesses, artisan workspaces, startups, sports facilities, bakeries, breweries, and more. For dogs who enjoy more high-energy social time and room to run, the huge Main Street Dog Park (with scenic City and Port of Oakland views) is also within walking distance. My loft space is secure, has heat and A/C, and I run a HEPA air purifier continuously. The loft has 14 foot ceilings, and there are huge original warehouse style windows that let the sun shine in, and open for fresh air. It is a quiet, relaxing, and calm space. Every boarding stay begins with a meet & greet to make sure we're a good fit and to help your dog settle in comfortably.
“Alexis provided excellent daycare for Roxer today. She kept him engaged and active, sent cute photo updates throughout the day, and he came home tired and happy. Roxer most definitely enjoyed his time and I will definitely use Alexis again for daycare needs!”
“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!!”
