“Five star +++ experience. I almost hate to leave a review because we want them all to ourselves! Lori & Frank treated my dogs like their own — they showered them with love and attention and took exceptional care of them. They sent adorable pictures and kept me updated (without being annoying about it) while I was out of the country for 9 days. They have a lovely cozy dog-friendly home, and a very nice fully fenced yard. They are both super kind dog lovers and also responsible adults so you can feel comfortable leaving your beloved pooch or pooches in their care. Just the best.”
“Great sitter. We were a bit nervous at first cuz our dog has some bad tendencies but she was great at controlling his leash aggression and kept us updated the whole time. Really great experience overall!”
“This was our 2nd time with Alex and Bri and we are so happy that the pups have found their home away from home. They treat our dogs like they are their own and send pictures over frequently during their stay. I hate to say it but I think one of them wishes they were still there. I highly recommend them!”
“Dustin was awesome. He is very attentive to the dogs and was completely engaged with them. Our two pups had an amazing time especially being able to enjoy the wide open spaces of Dustin’s vast property. It was a social adventure and they came back better for it. Thank you Dustin from both Avi & Daniel!”
“We were very happy with the care our dog received. Mila was communicative, attentive to our instructions, and clearly took great care of our dog while we were away. It gave us real peace of mind knowing everything was being handled so well. We’re grateful to have found someone we can trust and would gladly book with her again.”
“Tamara was a great host for our dog Pikachu! She sent pictures throughout his stay and went above and beyond to make him comfortable. We were able to fully relax knowing he was in good hands. We will definitely use her for boarding in the future.”
“Jaimi took amazing care of our dog, Maizie. She and her loved ones treated Maizie as a member of their family and the frequent photo updates were a delight. Knowing that Maizie was so well cared for made our travel worry-free. We highly recommend Jaimi and have already made arrangements to have Maizie stay with her again.”
“Deborah was fantastic! She was nice enough to accommodate us same day and could not have been nicer. We could tell instantly when we arrived that she was going to take great care of our dog Otto. She took him on walks, took him to the beach, sent lots of great photos, and even bought him some pup cups! Her children were also absolutely lovely and obviously made Otto feel comfortable and welcome. Highly recommend using Deborah services! You cannot go wrong!”
“I had to leave my pup for a couple of days soon after some surgery. Melissa took on the extra steps for food prep, meds, soft collar without hesitation. She did a great job keeping me posted on how my pup was doing, generally, and specifically about the incision sites. Really appreciate her taking extra care of my pup!”
“Ashish was amazing. This was our pup’s first boarding, and I was very nervous. He reassured me that everything was going to be ok. He also sent us photos through out the visit! He was super accommodating on pick up time as well. Would ABSOLUTELY bring my dog back here if I needed boarding again!”
“Ellen came to my rescue with a last minute request for overnight care for my dog. This was my first time using Rover and I was nervous to leave my baby girl with a stranger. But Willow immediately connected with Ellen and felt totally at ease. Ellen was very reliable and flexible.”
“Emily was wonderful! We arranged a meeting in advance to give my dog a chance to see the space and place. Then Emily was flexible with timing as we firmed up plans. She took great care of Aubrey and her dog Gigi was a super pal for Aubrey.”
“Adriana took great care of Kona, was very flexible with our drop off and pick up times, and kept us updated regularly with photos and videos throughout the weekend! Kona came back in great shape! Would definitely book Adriana again”
“Hsiaolei provided Lulu the absolute best attention and care. They were extremely attentive to her needs, taking her on loads of hikes because she is an energetic dog. The photos she sent us during our time away showed Lulu visibly smiling, whether on her pad by the fire or out on a walk. I highly recommend Hsiaolei!”
“Bee was amazing!! We booked a last minute weekend trip to Napa and couldn’t bring Baci our dachshund. Bee not only took care of him but also took him for walks, send pics and videos, to play with her own dog and even gave him a bath! We really appreciate all you did Bee and thank you! Highly recommend!”
About: I grew up with dogs and know firsthand how much they become part of the family. Our beloved dogs, Bonbon and Bambii, were like siblings to me, and I loved spending time with them on walks, hikes, and playtime adventures. Although I don't currently have pets of my own, I miss that special connection and would love the opportunity to care for and spend time with your furry companions. I also have experience looking after my sister's dog, Toast, and always enjoy giving pets the attention, exercise, and affection they deserve. I will treat your pets with the same love and care I would give my own. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time outdoors and being around animals. I love starting my mornings with a walk, hike, or run, and I'm available between 6:00 AM and 8:00 AM for dogs who need exercise, fresh air, and attention before the day begins. In the evenings, I enjoy going on walks after work, usually from 7:00 PM onward. This gives me dedicated time to focus on your pet, whether that means a relaxing walk, playtime, or simply keeping them company. Having grown up with dogs and caring for my sister's dog, Toast, I understand that pets thrive on consistency, affection, and quality time. Caring for pets doesn't feel like a chore to me, it's something I genuinely look forward to and enjoy incorporating into my weekly routine.🐶🤍 When caring for pets in a client's home, I prioritize keeping them comfortable by maintaining their usual routine as closely as possible. I follow all instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications (if needed), and any special preferences. I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, affection, and exercise while also respecting their individual personalities and needs. I believe communication is important, so I am happy to provide updates, photos, and messages to give pet parents peace of mind while they are away. My goal is to create a safe, calm, and loving environment where pets feel secure and cared for in their familiar surroundings.

“My crew absolutely loved Sharon and her positive energy. The photos she sent were pronominal, the communication was great. We will be hiring her again. Alsó appreciated her attention to detail when learning all the different routines and behavior patterns with my little ones. Thank you.”
“Olivia did a great job taking care of our cat Knightly. He is a diabetic cat that requires insulin injections twice a day. Olivia is both professional and reliable. We will ask her to pet sit again. Thank you!”
“This was Kat's first time sitting for our kitten Peanut, and she exceeded our expectations across the board. Communication was excellent — she shared regular updates and sent us genuinely fun photos that we loved getting throughout the trip. When we hit an unexpected schedule change, Kat was completely accommodating and made it a non-issue. The house was just as clean as we left it. She followed everything we asked, from the litter box routine to stripping the bed before we got back. Most importantly, Peanut was visibly happy and well-adjusted when we returned — you can always tell when a sitter has actually engaged with your pet, and she clearly had. Peanut was so comfortable with Kat that we were able to fully relax and enjoy our vacation. We will absolutely have her sit for Peanut again. Highly recommend.”
About: Hi! I’m a dedicated animal lover with two cats of my own, and I absolutely adore caring for pets of all kinds. Whether you have energetic dogs that need daily walks and playtime, independent kitties who want some extra snuggles, or any other furry (or scaly!) friends, I’m experienced and confident giving them the attentive, affectionate care they deserve. While you’re away, I’ll keep your pets happy and comfortable in their familiar environment, stick to their normal routines, provide plenty of love and exercise, and make sure your home stays safe and tidy. You can relax knowing your beloved companions are in trustworthy, caring hands! I work from home with a flexible schedule, so I’m highly available for drop-ins, overnight stays, and house sitting whenever you need me. Your pets will always receive prompt and attentive care! I prioritize your pets’ safety and well-being above all else. In your home, I follow your exact instructions and routines to the letter — from feeding schedules and medication to favorite toys and walk routes. I’m a responsible, non-smoker with a clean background, and I treat your space with the same care as my own.
About: Hi! We’re Christina & Zach—lifelong animal lovers with 40+ years of combined experience. I grew up on a farm where my mom bred Newfoundlands & Great Pyrenees, so caring for dogs has always been second nature. Over the years, I’ve had German Shepherds, an Alaskan Malamute, Boxer, Rottweiler, Pomeranian, Samoyed and mixed breeds. Zach grew up with a horse and has had Black Labs, German Shepherds, Peekapoos, Pitbulls, Golden Retrievers and Boxers—he’s known as the “dog whisperer” among friends and family. OUR HOME & CARE: We both work from home as Creative Directors & Designers, so your dog will rarely (if ever) be left alone. We provide a calm, attentive environment with long daily walks (AM + PM), playtime and a fenced backyard. We’re happy to follow your dog’s routine, preferences and any special instructions to ensure they feel safe, comfortable and loved. We also have experience working with animals in therapeutic settings (horses and dogs), which informs our calm, intuitive approach to care. THE BAY AREA / DOG & HOUSESITTING We are currently active house and pet sitting across Marin & Sonoma counties and the East Bay. We relocated to the Bay Area in summer 2026 and are settling into the region while continuing to care for pets and homes locally. All our reviews on TrustedHousesitters (dog & housesitting app) are five stars, happy to share our profile link and reviews upon request. SCHEDULE: Flexible, with daily walks (typically 2–4 miles total or more if needed). Additional walks and care tailored to your dog’s needs. We work from home for ourselves. EXPECTATIONS: I’m an interior designer and take great pride in maintaining a beautiful home. I’m on Rover for the love of dogs—not for income—so I’m selective to protect my space. All dogs must arrive freshly groomed with nails trimmed prior to drop-off. Thank you for understanding. SAFETY, TRUST, ENVIRONMENT: In our home we have a fenced in backyard they can enjoy. We can accommodate their dog bed in (or out) of our bedroom or can also crate them at night — if you prefer. RATES & FIT: We may charge higher rates for larger breeds or dogs requiring additional time, energy, or care. This ensures every dog receives the attention they deserve and that we are fairly compensated.
About: I’ve taken care of cats for neighbors, friends, and family for several years, and I also have a cat of my own who I love dearly. Because of that, I understand how important it is for cats to feel safe and comfortable in their own space. I’m experienced with feeding, cleaning litter boxes, playtime, and being patient with shy or independent cats while their owners are away.
“I recently had Madison house sit and pet sit for nearly two weeks, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. She took wonderful care of my cat, playing with him multiple times a day and regularly sending pictures so I always knew how he was doing. It's clear she genuinely loves animals. I came home to a happy, relaxed cat, just as I had left him. Madison was also incredibly responsive throughout the stay. Any time I had a question, she replied quickly and put my mind at ease. She also left the house in great shape, which I really appreciated. Leaving your pet with someone new can be a worrisome experience, but I never felt anxious once with Madison. I was completely at ease knowing my cat and home were in such capable, caring hands. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, attentive pet sitter, and I will absolutely be hiring her again without hesitation.”
About: Hello! My name is Karissa and I am a big animal lover. I've had dogs and cats my whole life, and have always enjoyed spending time with and caring for them. I have trained and competed in agility with my Australian shepherds, and I have worked with and trained dogs of all ages. I have also cared for and loved many cats (both my own and for clients and friends). When I played varsity polo for Virginia Tech, my team was charge of all aspects of care for our 16 horses during the school year. I have ridden and cared for over 100 horses since I was young. Through these experiences, I have administered medications, handled behavioral issues, fed a variety of foods, and cared for and diagnosed illnesses and injuries. My goal is to make sure your pets feel safe, cared for, and loved while their favorite people are away. Your pet should feel like they are on vacation too! I am available and excited to care for your pets on any schedule that works best for them! My schedule is quite flexible right now. Because I offer care in your home, I strive to ensure that you and your pets feel safe, respected, and cared for. I emphasize safety, privacy, cleanliness, and happy animals. Especially with the temporary change in caregiver, I believe it is extremely important to maintain the routine your pets are used to while you are away, with maybe a couple extra treats (with permission, of course) :) Above all, I adhere to the care rules and instructions given to me, because you know your pets better than anyone.
About: I am experienced in caring for dogs of all ages (I am always the go-to friend to dogs and housesit). Our family has an 8-year-old doodle named Stela, so I understand the importance of proper care and daily walks. Additionally, I have a good intuition regarding dogs and can sense if something is wrong or if we should cross the street because the owner doesn't want their dog to meet another one. As a responsible pet owner, I prioritize daily care and exercise. I ensure fresh water is available throughout the day and take regular breaks for bathroom walks. Weekly routines include walks, playing and thorough cleaning of their living spaces. I also schedule regular veterinary check-ups and maintain a consistent schedule for preventative medications. Hi there! Just wanted to let you know that I take a proactive approach when it comes to communicating with clients. As soon as I arrive at the house, I send a quick text message to let them know I'm there. Throughout the day, I also provide one or two status updates to keep them in the loop and reassured that everything is going well with their pet. And of course, I always make sure to leave the home clean and tidy. Thanks for choosing me as your pet sitter!

“Last time we went away, we used a non-professional catsitter who , due to a family emergency, was only able to visit once in 4 days. This time, we loved getting photos of our cat weaving her way between Em's legs, nuzzling her face, etc. during twice-a-day visits. We were so glad to know that our kitty was fed and watered and that she had used her litterbox and it was not filthy (the rest of the house was quite dirty and messy, and we are very sorry about that and grateful that our catsitter fulfilled her obligation despite that). Thank you so much, Emily!”
About: I currently have a chocolate point Siamese female nine year old cat with beautiful blue eyes. I don’t allow her around any dogs and she is always kept away in a separate room until the dog has left. I feel like cats are so special because they bring you so much unconditional love and affection and are so pretty and adorable. What’s their not to like? They really are angels on earth.
“Elena was responsible, caring and kept us updated through her stay with our cat Jedi. In addition, when we came home, our house was immaculate condition, better than when we left it. I’d highly recommend Elena and we will be re booking her for future cat sitting jobs.”

“Susannah and Richard were warm, communicative and wonderful! I can tell that Birdie really enjoyed her afternoon with them and I will be rebooking soon. I love that they are so close to Open space for walks and can also walk Birdie downtown. Highly Recommend!”
About: Consistency is key to dealing with animals. I never take a passive/beta stance. Leash training is a part of the service I provide. When walking, adventuring out is essential to broadening a dogs territory and decreasing the occurrence of aggression. The bond developed between pet and sitter is essential for success and understanding. I have been working with pets for a little over 14years. I do not have issues with socializing aggressive and/or rescue pets. I am very available to consult pet owners on a proper diet and exercise. Weight management is important for longevity of life. My primary concern is the well-being of your pets. I am currently walking 11am-4pm, M-F. I have room for small socialized dogs in my midday group. Open for sitting/overnights, and looking. Have excellent sitting reviews. I will feed and walk your dogs, as that is essential. I have experience in medication admin and basic first aid. I am available to take dogs via my vehicle, and explore the outdoors.
“I've never used a dog sitter before today and was a bit nervous because my dog tends to struggle with separation anxiety and he is currently mourning the loss of his brother. Lillie is so thoughtful and clearly has a huge heart for dogs! She welcomed me with flowers because she knew we were grieving the loss of our other dog. Lillie's energy and dog friendly environment helped put my dog at ease right away. Her dog was so friendly and was excited to have a fur pal to play with. I appreciated getting pictures and videos of my dog throughout the day. I definitely recommend Lillie!”

“Lori and Frank were incredibly warm to me and my dog! They welcomed him with open arms and gave him so much love - I was able to happily be without him knowing he was in great hands with Lori and Frank. They loved his idiosyncrasies and did everything they could to make my dog comfy - he can’t wait to go back and I will definitely use Lori and Frank regularly!”
“Marisa & her lovely family are so kind to Romeo. What a perfect spot with a sweet yard. He strolled up to their house on day 2 with a wagging tail & made himself at home. Happy to have Marisa in the neughborhood!”
“Susana was wonderful with our pup! She is very quick to respond to any messages and sent pictures and videos of my boy. She has a great outdoor area for dogs to play in, and space in the house to explore. My pup came home happy and smiling after 2 days of day care with Susana. I highly recommend her for day care.”
“Another great day with Dustin! Love to see the photos of our dog having the best time playing with other pups in Dustin's yard. Really appreciate the extra care Dustin puts in to make sure every pup who visits him has a fun, safe, and happy time!”
“Guillermo was so helpful and great to work with! He answered all my messages right away and was very thoughtful about asking questions to make sure my nervous dog would feel as comfortable as possible. Really appreciate his help with doggy daycare so my pup didn't have to be home alone!”
“Heidi and Lars were extremely accommodating and took great care of our boy Gryffin. I felt very comfortable leaving my fur baby with them. We received photos and info throughout the day. We will definitely use them again and I highly recommend Heidi and Lars for day care! Thank you for taking such good care of my boy.”
“My nervous dogs were so happy staying with Alex and Bri for the day! I got lots of pictures of them enjoying snuggles and playtime so I knew they were having a great time. We will definitely be back!”
“Robert and Sheila were fantastic! They were responsive and easy to work and took great care of our little one, Shelby. Their sweet dog Yoti was patient with our timid and over-attached dog Shelby. Yoti is friendly and welcoming……just like Robert and Sheila. Their home had a beautiful back yard where the dogs can roam together, and Rob is there with them all day while he works. We were fortunate to find them.”

I’m dedicated to creating a clean, calm, and nurturing environment where pets feel safe and cherished.

About: I started dog walking and petsitting in 2022. I'm great at reinforcing recall and working with all kinds of dogs, from independent off-leash to dogs that are prone to separation anxiety. I’m the perfect person to hang out with and cuddle your furry friend while you’re away. I am currently working from home and part time at that so I have plenty of energy to devote to making sure your furry friend is well taken care of. I'm fairly active and get at least 2 walks in a day and enjoy hiking as well. I usually take dogs on walks 2x daily unless otherwise instructed. I am home for most of the day and am typically not gone from the home for more than a couple hours at a time. Love having the pets sleep with me and venture out to hiking spots or day trips if that is something that suits them.

I've cared for many pets and homes (both long and short term) for over a decade. I love taking dogs out to the trail, the beach, and the park, and also have experience with various walking, medication, and care routines.
About: I’ve had pets since i could remember, it’s important to me that our animals live long happy and healthy lives! I’ve always been a family dog watcher and walker and would love to be part of yours! I’m currently available for any type of care! i’m taking a break from work and school so it’ll be around the clock care for personal care! I have a fenced yard with security cameras to make sure there’s no chance of any unnoticed care, even while outside! And of course I will always give extra love to your fur babies!
About: I've grown up around dogs my whole life, and have had experience walking and taking care of them for years. I love dogs and want to make sure your dog feels safe and comfortable. I'm currently a student, so I'm available on weekends and weekdays. I'm flexible and I can accommodate dog walking and sitting into my regular schedule. Safety always comes first. I'll respect your space and make sure your pet feels comfortable above all. I want to communicate with you to understand your pet's needs and your rules about your space.
About: Hello! I’ve been dog walking for the past year and it’s become my favorite activity. I give careful, loving attention, and it’s a plus if the dog has been trained to respond to commands. You won’t find me scrolling on my phone during walks! I regularly walk a playful Labradoodle named Jerry. I don’t yet have a dog of my own but I will always make time for them. I’m a former librarian who enjoys helping others. When I’m not walking, you’ll find me on planning committees for volunteer organizations, singing in choirs, and mentoring a fantastic teen. I look forward to meeting you and your pooch/pooches! My services include walking only, not pet sitting. Safety comes first, then fun. I am easily adaptable to following specific instructions or rules from each owner.
“Janaki did a great job for us . She arrived on time and was able to make friends with our dog that has a bad tendency to over react when greeting newcomers, but Janaki was able to handle this well. We liked her photos on the walk especially charmed with phot of her holding two bags of poop.”
About: I’ve had pets my entire life and I’ve been caring for animals since I was young. Growing up surrounded by pets gave me a genuine love and understanding of their needs. I know every has a unique personality, and I am committed to providing safe, loving, and dependable care. I’ll treat your pet with the same kindness, patience, and attention that I’ve given to mine. I’m currently working part-time, so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your pups! I’m available for walks, and to take care of your pets. I am available weekdays and weekends at any time. I promise to provide safe and responsible care for each pet, always respecting the clients home. I am a reliable person, organized and attentive to details. I maintain open communication with the owner and do everything possible so that both they and their pets feel calm and safe.
About: I have experience with birds, cats, and small to very large dogs! I am willing to train if needed for your dogs. Cats and birds are welcome!

About: Born into a dog & cat home! Will love and care for your fur babies just as my own! I look forward to hearing from you. Pet care and love are guaranteed. I value kindness, inclusivity, and respect for all. I may not be the best fit for homes that align with MAGA or similar ideologies. Thank you for understanding. 🐾💗😇 Hi! I was raised in a home full of dogs and cats, so caring for animals is second nature to me. I treat every pet like family and make sure they feel safe, loved, and happy while you’re away. Pet care and love are guaranteed!🐾💕 I’m available 7 days a week from 7 AM to 7 PM, and I’m located in the 707 area (Petaluma/Santa Rosa). I have my own reliable vehicle, so I’m dependable for early morning walks, last-minute drop-ins, and travel outside the area. I’m also happy to travel to Marin County and Solano County, including: • Marin: Novato, San Rafael, Corte Madera, Mill Valley • Solano: Vallejo, Fairfield, Benicia, American Canyon Every morning I make sure their cat bowls are full and fresh water is flowing. I mind their kitty littler boxes ( because they stay inside!) give them the amount if lovin they will allow and I'm off! Come home annnnnd repeat!
About: I am experienced in caring for dogs of all ages (I am always the go-to friend to dogs and housesit). Our family has an 8-year-old doodle named Stela, so I understand the importance of proper care and daily walks. Additionally, I have a good intuition regarding dogs and can sense if something is wrong or if we should cross the street because the owner doesn't want their dog to meet another one. As a responsible pet owner, I prioritize daily care and exercise. I ensure fresh water is available throughout the day and take regular breaks for bathroom walks. Weekly routines include walks, playing and thorough cleaning of their living spaces. I also schedule regular veterinary check-ups and maintain a consistent schedule for preventative medications. Hi there! Just wanted to let you know that I take a proactive approach when it comes to communicating with clients. As soon as I arrive at the house, I send a quick text message to let them know I'm there. Throughout the day, I also provide one or two status updates to keep them in the loop and reassured that everything is going well with their pet. And of course, I always make sure to leave the home clean and tidy. Thanks for choosing me as your pet sitter!

“Great sitter. We were a bit nervous at first cuz our dog has some bad tendencies but she was great at controlling his leash aggression and kept us updated the whole time. Really great experience overall!”
“Dustin was awesome. He is very attentive to the dogs and was completely engaged with them. Our two pups had an amazing time especially being able to enjoy the wide open spaces of Dustin’s vast property. It was a social adventure and they came back better for it. Thank you Dustin from both Avi & Daniel!”
“We were very happy with the care our dog received. Mila was communicative, attentive to our instructions, and clearly took great care of our dog while we were away. It gave us real peace of mind knowing everything was being handled so well. We’re grateful to have found someone we can trust and would gladly book with her again.”
“Tamara was a great host for our dog Pikachu! She sent pictures throughout his stay and went above and beyond to make him comfortable. We were able to fully relax knowing he was in good hands. We will definitely use her for boarding in the future.”
“Deborah was fantastic! She was nice enough to accommodate us same day and could not have been nicer. We could tell instantly when we arrived that she was going to take great care of our dog Otto. She took him on walks, took him to the beach, sent lots of great photos, and even bought him some pup cups! Her children were also absolutely lovely and obviously made Otto feel comfortable and welcome. Highly recommend using Deborah services! You cannot go wrong!”
“Ellen came to my rescue with a last minute request for overnight care for my dog. This was my first time using Rover and I was nervous to leave my baby girl with a stranger. But Willow immediately connected with Ellen and felt totally at ease. Ellen was very reliable and flexible.”
“Adriana took great care of Kona, was very flexible with our drop off and pick up times, and kept us updated regularly with photos and videos throughout the weekend! Kona came back in great shape! Would definitely book Adriana again”
“Hsiaolei provided Lulu the absolute best attention and care. They were extremely attentive to her needs, taking her on loads of hikes because she is an energetic dog. The photos she sent us during our time away showed Lulu visibly smiling, whether on her pad by the fire or out on a walk. I highly recommend Hsiaolei!”
“So happy Petunia got to stay with Kara and Val again. She always has a great time with them and we look forward each evening to getting little updates on her day. Can’t say enough good things (neither can she if she could talk)”
About: I’ve cared for dogs in a wide range of situations, including senior dogs, special-needs pups, and dogs recovering from injuries. Most dogs love nature, and it's exciting to see them perk up on walks at the sound of chirping birds, rustling brush, or a skittering lizard. There are great dog-friendly nature paths in Novato and San Rafael that give the pups both sniffing and social opportunities, so they come home tired and content. What I’m especially good at is communication. I pay close attention to a dog’s eyes, ears, posture, and energy, because they tell you so much before they ever make a sound. I use a gentle “dog voice” (yes, the sweet baby-talk voice) and clear, steady cues, because many dogs respond quickly to warmth, tone, and consistency. Even anxious or shy dogs usually soften when they realize they’re being understood. I’ve also cared for large dogs, and my Labrador retriever loves having big buddies to play with. No matter the size, age, or temperament, I’m respectful of each dog’s individual needs, and I make sure they feel safe, seen, and truly cared for with plenty of affection, attention, patience, and exercise. I currently work from home, and I have a (mostly) flexible schedule. I like to get out with my dog two times a day for 2+ mile walks on local trails and parks. I respect people's spaces, and I am good at following detailed instructions for homes and their pets. I have references and happy clients to tell you about it!
“Lily was a thoughtful, flexible, and loving pet sitter. She and her partner took our large pup for daily walks on the beach and even gave him special treats like a stuffed kong. She created an adorable Google photo album that she updated every day so that we knew what our pup was up to. We felt at ease leaving Chewy with Lily!”
“If I could give Matt a 10 star.... I definitely would!!! He was so great with my lil pooch!! If you need a dog sitter.. and you want a hassle free, great sitter.. pick Matt!!!! We will be back. Roxie says woof!!”
“Ross, Melissa, and Millie were the best sitters we could ask for! We received constant photo updates and they loved on our pups as if they were their own! Our dogs were sad to leave and we could tell from all the photos, walks, and adventures that they had an absolute blast. Would absolutely rebook again when we are out of town and need a sitter!”
“We truly cannot say enough wonderful things about Jill! She was absolutely outstanding with our two rescue dogs, Claude and Clementine. This was our first time leaving them for an extended period of time, so naturally, we were incredibly nervous. From the moment we met Jill, though, we knew they were in the best possible hands. During our meet-and-greet, both dogs felt comfortable enough to climb right into her lap, which was a huge testament to how naturally they connected with her. It is so obvious that Jill has a true gift when it comes to animals. She welcomed Claude and Clementine into her home with so much love, patience, and warmth and treated them like they were part of her own family. She went above and beyond to make sure they were happy and comfortable, keeping them entertained with walks, playtime, trips to the park, and plenty of love and attention. Jill was also incredibly communicative throughout their stay. She consistently sent us the sweetest pictures and updates, which made being away from them so much easier. She was incredibly patient as they settled into a new environment and clearly took the time to understand their individual personalities and needs. On top of being amazing with our dogs, Jill was extremely accommodating and flexible with our travel plans, which we appreciated more than we can say. We never once had to worry about whether Claude and Clementine were happy, safe, or well cared for — we knew they were having the time of their lives! We would recommend Jill wholeheartedly to anyone looking for someone to care for their pets. She is trustworthy, caring, attentive, communicative, and truly goes above and beyond. We feel so lucky to have found her and will absolutely be booking with Jill again. Claude and Clementine already miss their second home! 🐾❤️”
“Jesse was incredible with my pup! He was so flexible to meet us at a nearby park where my dog was most comfortable. He was so patient to learn about her personality and needs. He kindly did not book other dogs while my dog was staying with him as I had requested. My dog has a decent amount of energy, and I was so happy that Jesse would take her running and hiking. She had the best time, I knew she was in good hands, and I would absolutely book Jesse again.”
“Michael was amazing with our rottie! Because she has some leash reactivity, we met him beforehand so he could meet her and go for a short walk. You could tell immediately that he loves dogs and was very comfortable with them (especially big dogs). He sent updates and pics/vids while she was with him and we picked up a very happy and tired pup. We will definitely be using Michael again in the future! Thanks Michael!!”
“Sam was fantastic with Red. She is warms and welcoming and has a great set up for dogs. We were delayed getting home and Sam was flexible in keeping Red another night. It was really a great first experience and we’ll be back!”
