About: I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and personalities for 15 years. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, play with, and care for their pets while away. I’m patient, attentive, active, and genuinely love animals. I understand the importance of making pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I love taking dogs on hikes and to the beach as well. I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to your pets. I’m available for dog walking, drop-in visits, and pet sitting throughout the week and on weekends. I enjoy staying active, spending time outdoors, and making sure pets get the care, attention, exercise, and companionship they need to feel happy and comfortable. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I provide a calm, loving, and attentive environment and always follow the owner’s instructions carefully regarding feeding, routines, medications, walks, and special care needs. I pay close attention to pets’ behavior and body language to ensure they feel safe, secure, and well cared for at all times.
“Working with Jeanette and her sweet family was wonderful! Lil Ray came back nice and tired from all the play time. Would definitely recommend and will use their services again!”
“Lucia did such an amazing job taking care of Honey! There’s not very many people that can love on your pup as much as you do. But throughout Honey’s stay I got multiple photos and videos daily showing all the love and fun she was having. She has two dogs herself, and they all got along well. I am absolutely taking Honey back when I need dog sitting again!! Thank you Lucia!!!”
“Our Luna girl stayed with Adam and Julie for over a week and this was herfirst stay with them. We did do a meet and greet a couple months before the actual stay so we had an idea if Luna liked Adam and Julie. Luna is normally a fairly reactive young puppy like adolescent with frequent barking and lungeing at people and dogs that distress her which can be many people and dogs. We went to their home for the meet and greet and Luna was fairly comfortable with Adam and Julie right off the bat. That was definitely a good sign. Two months later and Luna now 2 months older and more mellow has her stay with Adam and Julie. We picked Luna up after our trip and she was happy, playful, and reacted like she had a good stay. Julie and Adam gave us a full report and it seems everything went well. We got a daily picture of Luna sent via text which made us very happy to connect with her. Thanks to Adam and Julie for taking good care of our girl while we were on vacation.”
“Kushram exceeded our expectations while boarding our three-year-old French Bulldog, Wizzy, over the holidays. We were understandably nervous about leaving Wizzy with an unfamiliar family for an extended 17-day stay, especially since it was her first time being boarded. Kushram immediately put us at ease by inviting us to a meet-and-greet before the boarding began. We had the pleasure of meeting his family, visiting their lovely home, and seeing the environment where Wizzy would be staying. This experience helped us build trust right from the start. Throughout our 17-day vacation, Kushram consistently sent videos and photos, along with thoughtful updates on Wizzy’s health and well-being. He was incredibly responsive via text and conversations, always replying within the hour. When we picked Wizzy up, all of her belongings were beautifully cleaned, organized, and packed—nothing missing, which we truly appreciated. Overall, the service was top-tier. We are deeply grateful to Kushram and his family for taking such great care of Wizzy, and we would absolutely work with him again.”
“My best dog sitting experience to date (and I'm lucky to have had some great ones). I had to leave my dog for nine days - the longest I've ever left him. I was a little concerned about him being with several other dogs and positive he would terrorize the cat. Instead, he spent the entire time running all over the big yard with his new friends (read: getting all of the exercise he desperately needs that I can never adequately provide) and becoming best friends with the cat. This was not a coincidence. I am positive it was because of the amazing environment provided by Asatur both physically and in the way the animals were cared for. He clearly loves animals and has gone to great lengths to create a wonderful environment for them. I loved the updates and photos I got and was amazed at how much exercise my dog got (which I could see by the miles logged on his tracker). Asatur was kind, responsive, responsible and all around great. Not only would I recommend and use again and recommend in a heartbeat, I genuinely look forward to my dog's next adventure there.”
“If you are looking for an EXCELLENT sitter for your dog, don't hesitate to book with Deborah! We have one dog with some special problems and Deborah was a champ with her. We got multiple pictures and updates on how they were doing through out the day. Our babies came home happy, healthy, and exhausted, so we know they had a great time. Thank you Deborah for watching our babies without us having to worry about them. BOOK WITH DEBORAH YOU WON'T BE SORRY!!!!!”
“Huey was on his way to a large dog boarding place. Jacqueline responded to my message and helped me out at the last minute. She has two lovely poodles as well. Huey was tired and slept hard wen he got home.”
“Ana G and her love & care for our fur baby was exceptional ❤️ I will definitely refer her and keep her for our dog coverage care, not to mention, as much as she hated to see our pup go. I think pup didn't want to leave. She a real 5 star 🌟”
“Our Shepherd/Husky loved staying with Allora and her family. He loved being able to play with their dog Boba, chasing each other around in their large outdoor backyard. Allora was very attentive and sent pictures every day, keeping us up to date with all the activities they were up to, which included walks every day, and being involved in family activities. I will definitely choose to leave him with Allora in the future too.”
“Banksy had an amazing time at Luna's and loved playing with Jim. I felt extremely comfortable leaving Banksy with Luna, based on the questions she asked about Banksy, her attention to detail about his needs and safety, and just her kind warm personality! I loved the pictures each day. I wholeheartedly recommend Luna and will definitely be having her watch Banksy again!”
About: I am a loving and friendly dog sitter! I grew up with two dogs, a poodle and a Chihuahua. My family currently has a bull terrier that I love very much. I also take care of my best friend's dog when she is out of town. I love dogs and going on walks so this combination is perfect for me. I am currently a nanny to one of nephews as needed but I am free every day during the summer to take care of your furry babies. I make sure I read their cues of needing water/food, when they need to pee/poop, when they're overstimulated, stressed, or happy. I also make sure to pet them and show them love by scratching them, patting them, and rubbing them. I also follow any schedule that is given to me to make sure they stick to their normal routine.

Whether at my home or yours, I ensure pets are well-fed, exercised, and given lots of attention and love.
“Nadine was amazing looking after both of my dogs this time! She sent us so many photos and videos throughout their stay and both of my dogs were having a blast! I 100% recommend Nadine!”
“Ali is the best! She’s been caring for my dog for 4 years now. She’s so responsible, knowledgeable, and caring. I know my dog is always in safe and capable hands whenever I leave him with her. Can’t recommend her enough!”

“Nathaniel did a great job caring for my energetic three-year-old Kelpie. My dog came home happy and well cared for. The only improvement I'd suggest is sending photos and updates more often. Overall, a very positive experience, and I'd be happy to use Nathaniel's services again.”

I have previous experience dog walking and caring for dogs, in addition to the last 5 years caring for my own dog, Ellie, whom I’ve had since she was 8 weeks old.

“Even short trips can be hard to be away from one’s four legged family. Deborah once again treats the girls with love and play. Even getting a rare visit from the scaredy cat. If that’s not high praise I don’t know what is.”
“Kenyana was very kind/friendly, flexible, and communicative. Lots of pictures were sent, and she was very thorough with detailing what our dog was doing when she dropped in. I'd happily use her again!”
About: I’ve been caring for animals my entire life and have 8+ years of hands on pet care experience. Cats were a part of my life before i was a dog owner/ provider, it was through years of being alongside my grandmother who loves animals in general but raised many Cats… through the years I’ve been exposed to knowledge and understanding to then care of all species, breeds, sizes, and temperaments. (cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, fish)
About: I have been lucky enough to provide care to clients and their pets for the last 10 years. I have fostered, facilitated adoptions, and coordinated care beyond boarding and daycare and enjoy the complex and companionable nature of the industry. I work from home and am available to provide round the clock care. A typical day begins with drop off in my yard between 7-9am and pick up from 4-7pm M-F but with some coordinating I am flexible depending on your needs. I have a three bedroom home, a fully fenced in yard, and very dog friendly furniture. The vibe is very much relaxed, fun, and spacious. Dogs are fed separately and ideally are crated at night.
“Yasmin was wonderful. Caring and loving of Besitos. I know Besitos felt safe and loved because our skittish Siamese cozied right up to her. I’m definitely going to ask Yasmin every time we go out of town.”
About: I grew up in a large family of animal lovers, we've always had more pets than grandchildren! I've taken care of my own and other family and friend's pets, walking, bathing, and house sitting puppies to senior dogs. My main jobs require me to travel to my clients, so I'm consistently driving through East Bay. Pretty convenient for caring for your darlings ! I’d love to start and end my work days with them. I care for every pet as family and stick to any routines and preferences we discuss. I’ll always make sure pets are fed and walked regularly and tire them out with play and activities before they end their day. I can also give medications if needed. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I want your pets to feel comfortable by keeping to their normal routine. I also like to clean and tidy up anything I use during stays, and send regular photo and message updates so owners feel reassured while they’re away. My goal is to make pets feel happy, safe, and well cared for while keeping their owners informed and confident in the care their pet is receiving.
“Patricia took great care of my two kittens. She was able to spend all day with them while she pet sat so they got lots of attention and care. She provided updates and photos throughout her stay. I definitely recommend her!”
“Yu provided excellent care for our cats. She played with them and sent us update throughout the week. She also left everything in our home tidy. Thank you so much for your help. Will definitely rebook.”
About: I am full of gratitude that have had a lifelong relationship with dogs. I use a force-free and fear-free approach. Dogs are their own beings that we get to tend to as humans, and it is truly an honor that I get to work with them. I’m a fan of long walks, hikes, and East Bay hills explorations. Special needs dogs and large pups welcome! My absolute favorite dogs are rescues, but I have experience walking dogs of all sizes, from mastiffs and newfies to shitzhus and terriers. Please let me know if your dog has any special needs, favorite games, or things to avoid. I am kind, firm, and will pick up all of your dog’s poop! I look forward to meeting you and your doggy friend! I work from home and take lots of walks throughout my flexible day. I’d love to take your pup along with me! I can do longer morning walks with enough heads up as well. Your dog's trust and safety is so important to me! I will spend time with you beforehand so that I can learn more about your pup and what they need. For walks, I will get to know your dog before we venture out on to the streets together. For dogsitting, I have a house checklist to make sure that your pup and space have the best care while you're away. I keep a safe distance from other dogs and people during walks.
“Excellent! Michael is very thoughtful and does a great job. He is very reliable and we feel very fortunate to have such a capable and kind cat sitter. I love that he gives us updates and sends photos. Thanks Michael!”
About: I’ve grown up with lots of pets and currently have four cats and a dog at home, so being around animals has always been a big part of my life. As a UC Davis student, I have the flexibility to spend quality time with pets and give them the attention they need. I love spending time with animals of any age and make sure to follow their routines and any special instructions, so they feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. Caring for animals is something I’m passionate about, and I’m committed to providing dependable, attentive care every time. I also think that spending time caring for animals is a great way for me, as a college student, to get out of my apartment and do something healthy and fulfilling. I’m a UC Davis student working part-time, so I have a pretty flexible schedule. I’m usually available most evenings and weekends, and I also have gaps during the day when I can stop by to hang out with your pets. I like to make sure pets get plenty of attention and playtime, and I’m happy to work around your schedule to help however I can. I always make sure pets feel safe and comfortable. I follow any instructions you give me and keep a close eye on your pets so they’re happy and relaxed. Having grown up with lots of animals, I know how important it is to create a clean, calm space where pets feel at ease. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel cared for and comfortable.
About: I truly love cats and have two of my own. One was rescued from the street, and his name is Macchiato. The other was adopted from a shelter, and her name is Truffle. I also have experience caring for other cats and often help my friends take care of their cats. I’m patient and responsible, and I always make sure cats feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for.
“Irina did an amazing job, giving us that peace of mind while we were away. It was so easy to communicate with her and she was extremely responsive and took great pictures of our kitties. They usually are very depressed and anxious when we return but not this time! She provided great care and compassion and even went above and beyond! I would recommend!”

“Jeanette and family have taken care of Emily several times now and she always comes back calm and happy. Given her sort of one-person personality, I knew that Emily would need several day-care visits to get accustomed to Jeanette and her household before moving on to the next step of an overnight. With Jeanette's loving care and help I think Emily is ready for her next "big step" of overnighting! My dog is not one who makes instant friends (dog or human) usually, so this is an ongoing process and it is going well so far!”
“My guy had a wonderful time in Asatur’s care. The sunny days allowed for play in the huge grassy yard. He played well with the other dogs. He had a ball running all day and was good and tired in the evening. Good picture updates and responsive. Highly recommend.”
“Kushram and Family are a wonderful find for dog sitting or doggy day care. Give the initial booking request a bit of lead time, as the confirmation that the day/time works may take up to a day to come through. This time I put in a request 9:30pm on a Saturday, and got confirmation Sunday evening. (I suspect requests are processed daily). The initial booking request was the largest gap we experienced in communication, scheduling the meet and greet by messages was easy - they were very responsive and want to ensure you and your pup will be comfortable with their set up and go over any special needs of the dog. Our elder pup Rick was drawn to Kushram and the whole family even on the meet and greet (I think just his wife and adult nephew), as well the drop off day of, and they were able to make him comfortable enough to eat even on a short visit. Given our short booking (only about 3 hrs) we can't really comment on long term pictures/communication during the visit, but I can say I feel pretty happy that I found some place local where I feel comfortable leaving my dog when I need to go somewhere. They also have some experience with some dog special needs, but can help best when they know about it ahead of time. They were not concerned or put off in the slightest by our pups needs (mostly that he's pretty clingy, can get cold easily, and only has 3 teeth and will only eat small pieces of food, and doesn't love hanging out with other dogs), and described other dogs they had watched with similar or more challenging needs such as dog-sitting a blind dog in a new space. Thank you for taking good care of our pup!”
About: I've had dogs all my life.Now that am retired can spend more time with dogs.Available anytime and we love meeting new dogs and new dog owners I am available anytime these days due to being retired. Have 2 dogs that love meeting and playing with other dogs. We'll make sure your pet is happy Well honestly I would spoil them with lots of attention and lots of treats.. they will always be happy to be with us and well taken care of
“It is our first time using Rover and we chose the right person to take care of our puppy Max. Allora and her family were amazing. She had him for the day and he had the time of his life! They constantly kept us updated with photos and videos and even let him wear an Air Tag to make sure he's safe. We'll definitely let our dog stay over here again!”
About: I live in Hercules (East Bay) and only do IN HOME CARE for dogs and sometimes cats. I've found there is less stress if they stay in their own familiar surroundings with your smells; especially if they are blind or deaf or have elderly med needs.. I also give medications and understand senior dog needs. My small Chihuahua SOPHIE comes with me and gets along with everyone. I am semi-retired and will attend to all your instructions, sleep with your baby if that is what is required. I specialize in small dogs but will consider anything, especially if you are in a bind and need someone ASAP. Call me and let's discuss your needs! Thank you. I'm semi-retired and usually available. I am happy to take your dog to dog parks. Sophie and I go on long walks everyday, sometimes twice. We are active. We will follow your schedule. I've great references for in-home care which is all I do now. I also keep the house clean and will do laundry or other needs while I am there. Long or short stays, just let me know what you need. I've background checks that are stellar, never any incident. I am a professional.
“I have an anxious senior pup who hasn't spent much time apart from my partner and I since adopting him a few months ago (in large part due to his anxiety). I did a pre-meeting with Zoe to make sure it would be a good fit for the pup and then we completed the booking. While my pup still let me know later in the day he was mad I left him, when I picked him up he was happy and bouncing around, but also perfectly happy to go back and hang with her. I think this was the most positive experience possible for Rick and am hopeful the positive experience might help him towards being less anxious when we leave him in the future (every positive experience helps I hope!). I would and will definitely book again with her as long as she's available and accepts him again! Also to note, she was very flexible with our pick up time which I appreciated - I had mentioned I might be able to pick the dog up early, and then when I was able to I messaged her that day and picked him up 3 hours early to hopefully make it easier on Rick. That for sure saved me some time instead of needing to pick him up and hitting rush hour on my way home. She was also very helpful and provided feedback to me on Rick's behavior at my request so I have a good handle on how his anxiety and overall behavior is progressing as we try to work through it. Thanks again Zoe (and Partner!)! I really appreciate y'all.”

“Deborah took great care of our dog Noodle. Noodle is a little shy and Deborah was very patient and caring. Her house is well set up and has a great enclosed yard. She sent us some great pictures too!”
“Archie absolutely adores his Wenxin and her whole family. The second he sees that we are pulling up to her house he starts to pull on his seatbelt. Not so much as a "goodbye" when he darts off to see his friends. We could not be happier to have found her!”

That tells me she treats the doggies well and develops a good bond with them! Deborah is communicative and easy to work with. Highly recommend!”

I aim to make every visit a positive and stress free experience for both you and your dog.
About: 8+ years of hands-on pet care experience. From a young age, I’ve looked after dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments As an athlete and boxer, I naturally enjoy staying active What sets me apart is my calm, patient personality and genuine ability to connect with both pets and owners. I take time to learn each animal’s individual needs, routines Whether it’s exercise, medication reminders, feeding, playtime , and comfort levels so they feel safe and happy. SPECIAL SKILLS -I’m also equipped with a truck for safe transportation to vet appointments, parks, in addition to services I offer professional baths & grooming at local pet stores. Fully comfortable with multi-pet households and all types of animals. I treat every pet with the same care I give my own. Neighbors, friends, and family have consistently trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and provide companionship for their pets. I’m very flexible with my schedule and structure my days around pet care. I typically do morning walks and drop-ins before 9am, midday check-ins, and evening visits after 5pm. On weekends I’m wide open for overnights or longer sitting. Pet care is my priority — I plan my routine so your dog always gets consistent, quality time without feeling rushed In my home, pets get constant supervision, structured playtime, potty breaks, and meals on their normal schedule. I’m experienced with crate training if needed and always keep a calm, secure environment. In your home I follow your exact instructions for feeding, walks, and any medication. Safety and trust come first
About: I live in Hercules (East Bay) and only do IN HOME CARE for dogs and sometimes cats. I've found there is less stress if they stay in their own familiar surroundings with your smells; especially if they are blind or deaf or have elderly med needs.. I also give medications and understand senior dog needs. My small Chihuahua SOPHIE comes with me and gets along with everyone. I am semi-retired and will attend to all your instructions, sleep with your baby if that is what is required. I specialize in small dogs but will consider anything, especially if you are in a bind and need someone ASAP. Call me and let's discuss your needs! Thank you. I'm semi-retired and usually available. I am happy to take your dog to dog parks. Sophie and I go on long walks everyday, sometimes twice. We are active. We will follow your schedule. I've great references for in-home care which is all I do now. I also keep the house clean and will do laundry or other needs while I am there. Long or short stays, just let me know what you need. I've background checks that are stellar, never any incident. I am a professional.

About: I grew up in a large family of animal lovers, we've always had more pets than grandchildren! I've taken care of my own and other family and friend's pets, walking, bathing, and house sitting puppies to senior dogs. My main jobs require me to travel to my clients, so I'm consistently driving through East Bay. Pretty convenient for caring for your darlings ! I’d love to start and end my work days with them. I care for every pet as family and stick to any routines and preferences we discuss. I’ll always make sure pets are fed and walked regularly and tire them out with play and activities before they end their day. I can also give medications if needed. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I want your pets to feel comfortable by keeping to their normal routine. I also like to clean and tidy up anything I use during stays, and send regular photo and message updates so owners feel reassured while they’re away. My goal is to make pets feel happy, safe, and well cared for while keeping their owners informed and confident in the care their pet is receiving.
“I'm very glad that we met Jenna and she is giving Violet walks on a regular basis. Jenna is very accountable and trust worthy. She is calm and understanding with my often anxious dog. And this week she responded to a last minute request for a walk... I appreciate the level of flexibility and quick responses that she provides.”

“I must say, Maikala is truly amazing with my beloved doggie Ellie! Her warm and tender care for my furry baby is beyond words. I am immensely grateful for her kind and loving attention towards Ellie.”
“Michael was extremely responsive and accommodating of our very short-notice needs, and sensitive to the needs of our shy-of-strangers dog Latte. Would definitely call on him again!”
About: I have been an animal lover since I was little. I grew up on a ranch taking care of cats, dogs, rabbits, birds, horses, pigs, and poultry. I have been a cat and dog foster for 3 years. I have fostered a variety of dogs, from small cuddle loving chihuahuas to high energy pit bulls. I have fostered puppies and kittens and am comfortable with preparing puppy/kitten food, administering medication, and cleaning up all messes. I have 1 dog and 4 cats of my own. My oldest cat is a 16 year old senior, so I am very familiar with senior needs around feeding and medication. I am currently a fulltime social work master's student on break for the summer, so my schedule is pretty flexible. I make sure to update my availability regularly. Shoot me a message and we can hopefully work something out! I understand how nerve wracking it can be to leave a loved member of the family with someone unfamiliar. I make sure everyone gets lots of pets and attention. I will treat your babies with as much love and care as I treat my own! I will make sure lots of pictures are taken and that communication is reliable and steady.
“Ms Victoria has been an excellent choice for my pup Peach. She connected with her immediately and my pup has loved her since. Victoria has been a life saver for me & id highly recommend to others if you need ANY service for your four legged babies 🐶”

“Yasmin was so incredibly great with my dog! I have a very hyper little dog and she was so patient and kind with him. She took him for long walks (even in this heatwave!) and made sure he had water after they were done. She also takes the cutest pictures that I have saved many to my phone. She even provides an update of how the walk went and what happened with her walking card which definitely going above and beyond. If you need a great dog walker I would highly recommend her because she is so amazing!”
“Irina walked our reactive dog in our neighborhood and I definitely recommend her! She was communicative throughout the process, provided pictures and gave a detailed summary of their walk together. We’ve already booked her for a week long stay in our home!”

“Working with Jeanette and her sweet family was wonderful! Lil Ray came back nice and tired from all the play time. Would definitely recommend and will use their services again!”
“Our Luna girl stayed with Adam and Julie for over a week and this was herfirst stay with them. We did do a meet and greet a couple months before the actual stay so we had an idea if Luna liked Adam and Julie. Luna is normally a fairly reactive young puppy like adolescent with frequent barking and lungeing at people and dogs that distress her which can be many people and dogs. We went to their home for the meet and greet and Luna was fairly comfortable with Adam and Julie right off the bat. That was definitely a good sign. Two months later and Luna now 2 months older and more mellow has her stay with Adam and Julie. We picked Luna up after our trip and she was happy, playful, and reacted like she had a good stay. Julie and Adam gave us a full report and it seems everything went well. We got a daily picture of Luna sent via text which made us very happy to connect with her. Thanks to Adam and Julie for taking good care of our girl while we were on vacation.”
“My best dog sitting experience to date (and I'm lucky to have had some great ones). I had to leave my dog for nine days - the longest I've ever left him. I was a little concerned about him being with several other dogs and positive he would terrorize the cat. Instead, he spent the entire time running all over the big yard with his new friends (read: getting all of the exercise he desperately needs that I can never adequately provide) and becoming best friends with the cat. This was not a coincidence. I am positive it was because of the amazing environment provided by Asatur both physically and in the way the animals were cared for. He clearly loves animals and has gone to great lengths to create a wonderful environment for them. I loved the updates and photos I got and was amazed at how much exercise my dog got (which I could see by the miles logged on his tracker). Asatur was kind, responsive, responsible and all around great. Not only would I recommend and use again and recommend in a heartbeat, I genuinely look forward to my dog's next adventure there.”
“Our Shepherd/Husky loved staying with Allora and her family. He loved being able to play with their dog Boba, chasing each other around in their large outdoor backyard. Allora was very attentive and sent pictures every day, keeping us up to date with all the activities they were up to, which included walks every day, and being involved in family activities. I will definitely choose to leave him with Allora in the future too.”
“Ali is the best! She’s been caring for my dog for 4 years now. She’s so responsible, knowledgeable, and caring. I know my dog is always in safe and capable hands whenever I leave him with her. Can’t recommend her enough!”
About: I’ve owned dogs all my life and a huge dog lover, I understand how hard it can be to leave your little bestfriend even for a couple hours! Im used to very active big dog who need lots of exercise and play time, but of course I love the little pups as well! I love to be a pet sitter that teaches your pup new tricks & overall spend time with them. If you are looking for a pet sitter who will integrate your doggies life with my life im your girl! Dogs are a part of the family and should be treated that way :) I work from home and currently just hoping to have some friends visit that I can play with and take on drives to dog parks or trails! I love to incorporate your puppy’s life with my mine! making outside hikes and dog park time a daily routine- I have a dog park included at my apartment complex! also lots of nearby trails :)
“Nathaniel did a great job caring for my energetic three-year-old Kelpie. My dog came home happy and well cared for. The only improvement I'd suggest is sending photos and updates more often. Overall, a very positive experience, and I'd be happy to use Nathaniel's services again.”
“Ross took such great care of Joey! He clearly is such a dog person who could intuitively figure out all of Joey’s quirks. Joey had a great stay and is probably already looking forward to his next stay with Ross!”
About: I’ve had dogs for most of my life. I grew up with 4 bigs dogs. Recently I’ve been doing walks on apps, I’ve done over 70+ services ranging from taking care of old pets to very young ones. People always set me as their preferred walker since they love that I listen to their rules and go on long walks with their dogs. For a 60 minute walk I average about 2-3 miles, depending on the dog. I’m currently a student at San Jose State University and I look forward to doing some walks or other services on the weekends when I’m back home, also I can do walks or sittings on the weekdays when I off school. I have a fenced yard, the dogs and cats are allowed in the house and my room. I will make sure to always keep a lookout and have them be where I am at.
“Louis watched our dog for multiple days over Thanksgiving week, and was absolutely amazing. He gave super prompt communication and is very knowledgeable. We felt at ease during our trip knowing our dog was in good hands. Highly recommend Louis if you are in need of a great dog sitter!”
“Maria was great with my poodle mix pita. She sent me updates and pictures. Her house is very clean and tidy. We will be booking with her again. Great experience. Thank you Maria!”
“Great sitter - I only care about the well being of my dog and with Kaya I was super confident he would be fine. He came back after two weeks in great shape and spirit and that’s what matters the most. Kaya was also super responsive and accommodating. What more can you ask for? Thank you Kaya, we’ll definitely come again!”
“Luciana and Rob were fantastic with Calli. She’s a reactive pup and I’m always concerned when leaving her with a new sitter, but Luciana and Rob made it so easy! We had a nice meet and greet before our trip to ensure it was a good fit. Drop off and pick up were super easy and we got regular pictures and check-ins. We are already looking to rebook with Luciana and Rob!”
“Te’Arie was great with our maltipoo pup, who can be a bit on the nervous side when first meeting people and other dogs/cats. She knew just what to do to make her feel comfortable during her weekend stay and I loved how she kept me posted on their outings (walks and nearby beach) and shared pics. You can tell Te’Arie has experience working with different personalities and is also just a really warm, caring person. Would definitely book with Te’Arie again and highly recommend!”
About: Hello! I have been a dog and cat lover ever since I was very young. I have experience with pets of all shapes and sizes and love them all equally! I am available for dog and cat sitting while you are on vacation. Under my care, I will make sure to give your pet lots of snuggles and play time. For pups, can do long walks in dog friendly parks, and baths as needed. Photos and text updates will be provided daily. Please have your pet up to date with shots and flea/tick medication. I can administer oral medication, if needed. If you have any questions feel free to message me. Thank you for reading this, I can't wait to meet you and your pet! Before and after work, I am happy to play, walk and snuggle with your fur babies. While boarding in my home, my partner (who also loves pets) does occasionally work remote and can hang out with your pet. At my home I do have a large fenced yard that your pup can play in. I also live close to several dog parks and hiking trails for the more adventurous pups.
“Kiarash and Sofiia took amazing care of my dog Buddy while I was recovering from surgery. From the moment I dropped him off, I felt completely at ease. They treated Buddy like one of their own, taking him on long and strenuous walks (which he needs!), feeding him homemade food (but always asking me first), and sending thoughtful updates that meant so much. What stood out to me most was how naturally they understood his needs and personality. Buddy can be a little intense with his strength and energy and requires an experienced hand. But they embraced him with patience and confidence, and I could tell he was thriving. When I couldn't be there for him, I genuinely felt like they were, and that kind of trust is rare. I've used quite a few Rover boarders over the years, and I don't say this lightly but I do believe Kiarash and Sofiia have been both my and Buddy's favorites. I wouldn't hesitate to book again. Highly, highly recommend!”
“Radha took such good care of our boy when we were out of town for a week. Daily pics and videos, some is the cutest and funniest ones, showing him having a blast. This was our 2nd time with Radha and would 100% use her again.”
