“Lori is the most compassionate and caring dog sitter I’ve ever met. My dog was injured while I was out of town, and she picked up and took care of my dog with such kindness and compassion. She communicated with me all throughout the day and night until I was able to make it back home. Ziggy & I are so grateful for her. I couldn’t recommend a sitter more!!! She’s amazing!!!”
“We were worried that our Mimi would be very anxious away from us - but she fit right in to Deborah’s home and we were able to enjoy our time away knowing she was truly cared for. Deborah was great at communication too and seeing Mimi’s smiles in the pictures was wonderful. Definitely will ask Deborah again if the need arises. Thank you!”
“Bianca was so kind and responsive, took great care of Aspen and always kept me updated. I would recommend her to anyone and would also be happy to have Aspen stay with her again anytime. Thank you!”
About: I have grown up with pets my entire life, from large dogs (Golden Retriever, Labrador) and walking/feeding them everyday. To multiple cats at once, and other common pets. I pet sat for neighbors and family with a variety of pets: dogs, and cats. Including a cat that required twice a day insulin shots. Currently in my free time I volunteer as a shelter dog walker for Marin Humane. I am currently working from home and have plenty of time for walks, fetch, or just to hang out with your pet. Will be out of the house for a couple hours on Saturdays. I do not have a yard, but there are many great spots nearby for walks or hikes. I can also be flexible to the dogs schedule (food/walks). And since I work from home I can provide them with attention or a potty break at a moments notice.
“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.”
“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.”
About: Growing up, I have always been around animals. I currently have a dog and two cats of my own that I love unconditionally. I have house sat for families with a variety of pets. From taking care of cats, dogs, geckos, and chinchillas, I have found myself to be very responsible person and loving towards all animals, giving them all the attention they need. Being a very active person, I will always give your pet plenty of exercise.
“Drake had such a wonderful time with Tula. I loved the updates throughout his stay, which gave me comfort knowing he settled in ok and was having a good time. Would definitely recommend her to anyone needing their dog watched, especially since Drake can be reactive to strangers and other dogs. She was very understanding and handled him with a ton of care.”
“Nadya was great! Her place is a relaxing retreat for the dogs, lots of sunny spots to lounge in the yard. She sent great pics while we were gone. She was kind, friendly and responds quick to texts. Would definitely recommend her.”
“Lillie was wonderful, and I would highly recommend her! It was our first time leaving Bear with her- she sent lots of photos and videos which gave us peace of mind. Bear has issues with anxiety but came home a very happy boy! Thank you Lillie!”
“Kyle and her pup Frankie were the absolute best sitters! Kyle allowed us to come over and intro the pups before we officially booked. During the stay, we received lots of positive reports plus photos and videos of the pups playing, at the park, and sleeping on the couch together. We knew our pup was in great hands and we will 100% rebook for our next trip.”
“Our dog had an amazing time with Diana! We got frequent updates on their fun adventures from the dog parks to running around her house and helping with homework (lol), and much more! Honestly our dog has been so well behaved after spending ~6 days with Diana. Highly recommend to everyone!”
“Ellen was professional from start to finish, making us feel our pup was safe and taken care of while we were away, including text and photo updates. Our doggo is a bit shy and anxious, and Ellen knew just how to connect with him and get to know his personality. It was our first time leaving our pup for a night away from home and we/our pup couldn’t have asked for a better first experience.”
About: I'm the friend who everyone asks to take care of their dog (including senior dogs). I love our furry friends—and appreciate every families trust. I raised a Bichon puppy and later cared for her as a 12 year old senior dog. I have fostered and helped to train 4 rescue dogs through the Milo Foundation and frequently pop by to volunteer walk Milo dogs. I am an executive who works from home so I am at the dog's side non-stop and have the flexibility to take several walks a day. I'm also a 5 minute drive to Blackie's Pasture for longer walks. I have a super clean home. The dogs are allowed everywhere. I have a very clean, safe home. I also have access to popular dog parks/walks. I pay close attention to dietary restrictions, etc. And when it comes to passing another dog on leash I always ask if the dog is friendly. I'm a mom to an 11 year old—I care for dogs like they are kiddos.
“Stewart was everything we had hoped for in a sitter. He took excellent care of our dog. His lovely home was safe and comfortable and convenient. Stewart communicated well and even adjusted his schedule to accommodate our timing. I wouldn’t hesitate to hire him again.”
“I'm so thankful for Rosa and Kevin taking such thoughtful care of my dog, Watson. It was my first time using Rover, so I really appreciated them taking time for my dog to get acquainted with them prior to her boarding and to ensure she got along well with their dog, Banksy. Thank you!”
“Yina took excellent care of my pup and I appreciated that she kept in touch while I was away. I would definitely recommend her if you’re looking for a calm and caring place for your pet.”

“This was the second time that Kathryn has watched over Peanut. We never have to worry when she watches over our kitten. Peanut is always so comfortable and playful with Kathryn - it makes it easier to enjoy our time away when we know she is in such good hands. Not only does Kathryn take great care of Peanut, our house is somehow always more sparkling when we return which makes for a great homecoming.”
“As always, Anne is a wonderful caretaker for our boys. She sends me updates, and I can tell she genuinely enjoys visiting with the cats. I’m always thrilled to have Anne sitting for them, because I know I can enjoy my time away, while being confident that the boys are in great hands. Thank you, Anne!”
“Chuck was fantastic and went way above and beyond for me when he watched my cat. He was very responsive and kind and patient when I was worried. I can’t recommend him highly enough. There should be more than five stars available for someone as good as he was.”
“Great communication, friendly, very patient with my shy dog who required coaxing out of his crate initially but was getting belly rubs by the end of the visit. Would absolutely recommend!”
“Lydia is amazing. Not only did she know how to gain my kitty’s trust and keep her happy and occupied, she also administered daily medication. Lydia is also a great communicator, flexible with her time and clearly devoted to my pet. I couldn’t have left her in better care and will definitely be booking her again.”
About: I also love taking care of cats if you need your kitty to be fed, checked on, and loved while you are away. My sister was allergic to cats growing up and we never had one so I’m getting all the time I can in now- and I found I really enjoy cats and their different personalities!
About: • Experienced caring for cats of all ages and temperaments through frequent pet sitting and babysitting responsibilities • Comfortable with feeding schedules, litter box cleaning, administering basic care, and keeping pets active and comfortable • Attentive to animal behavior and able to create a calm, safe, and trustworthy environment for pets while owners are away • Reliable, communicative, and experienced managing multiple responsibilities while providing consistent care and attention
“If you have any doubts about leaving your furry friend in the care of a home sitter, Marisa will put your anxieties to rest. She took great care of my good buddy Gus the Cat, hanging out with him, giving him treats, and sending daily images of the little guy. I simply could not be more pleased, or grateful.”
“Marilee has been so great to work with, communicative and warm. She befriended a kitty who can be very wary of new people. She was able to get him in every night and gave him lots of love. My place looked great, just as I left it. We will definitely be having her again and again.”
About: I've had dogs in my life since I was a middle schooler. Between my family dogs and dogs who have lived in my home since then I have been responsible for at least 7 dogs, of all shapes, sizes and demeanors. I've kept moody Dachshunds, energetic Shelties, even tempered Retrievers and even rescue Pitbulls. I love hiking and getting outdoors, and bringing a canine friend along. I currently have one dog of my own, a peppy rescue mix, and he is my best friend I am available to dog/house sit very regularly. I am an ecological land designer working most days from home with the exception of days where I need to do a site visit or connect with my team in person. I can pretty much work from anywhere with a good internet connection, so most days would be able to be around in case your dog needs more frequent walks or attention. In addition to dogs I love other pets and plants! If you have house plants, a veggie garden or other plants that need some watering or attention while you're away I'll be able to help in the department as well! I work from home most days, so I am able to be flexible around a pets needs regarding feeding, walks, and medication. Ocassionally I do have to leave home for work, and that is typically up to 4 hours. We have one dog at home and since we don't have a yard, we typically take him up on the ridge to walk, or to the Red hill Dog park or San Quentin beach. These are great places to have some fun exercise
“Trisha was lovely to work with. Her professionalism and care for our cat exceeded all expectations! She went the extra mile and really connected with our little guy when we were out of town. She sent updates and photos every check in. We were so happy to have found Trisha and would highly recommend her for anyone looking for a thoughtful, kind and caring pet-sitter.”
About: I am a reliable person owned by two orange cats. I have taken care of my friends hyperthyroid-jumpy cat, various neighbors cats, an obese cat and a very senior cat. With lots of gentle attention, space and care, I have gotten the most traumatized, scared cat to come out - eventually. I am comfortable administering meds if they can be crushed or if the cat is okay with meds. I do not do injections.
“Jill is amazing. Always so positive, reliable and responsive! She does a great job with our cat whiskers, who admittedly is difficult, and we always know she’s in good hands. I would absolutely recommend her.”
“Cecilia checked in on our cats for a week while we were gone and kept us updated on every visit, how the cats were doing, as well as pictures of them. Everything was great when we returned to happy cats!”

Prices are estimates per day for 1 dog. Pricing may vary based on your search and includes a booking fee of 11%.
“Poppy ran happily to Sophie when I dropped her off after only meeting her once during the meet and greet. That says a lot since Poppy is an anxious little girl. She looked very happy when I picked her up as well. Sophie sent updates and photos and was very sweet and easy to work with. I highly recommend her!”
“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!”
“Amber was great! She took the trouble to come over for a "meet and greet" with Leo and Bailey the day before her job, which not only established a relationship in advance but gave us a chance to discuss the drill with them in unrushed fashion, ahead of time. Amber has a great chill way with dogs and is a reliable and cheerful person to work with. Would definitely use again.”
“Nadya was so kind and took great care of our puppy, sending photos and videos throughout his stay. We’ll definitely be reaching out again next time we’re in town and need someone to take care of Appa for the day! Thank you, Nadya!”
About: I grew up around all kinds of animals and I’ve cared mostly for dogs on the smaller side, but I am good with bigger dogs too. I have some beginner training experience as well. I’m currently working only as a pet caregiver so I have plenty of time to tend to your pet! I have class on Thursdays from 5:30 to 8:30 PM. I live in a very dog friendly apartment building. Dogs are allowed on furniture. They will get frequent walks (morning, afternoon, and evening) and potty breaks (every 2-4 or 4-6 hours depending on dog) and I will set alarms for meals/medications.
“Ariane was amazing with my dog, Porkchop! She was super friendly, kept me updated, and made sure he got lots of love and attention. I felt so comfortable knowing he was in such good hands. Highly recommend Ariane!”
About: Hi! I’m a mom, and lifelong animal lover based in San Rafael. With over 20 years of experience caring for pets—including sitting for all of our friends dogs and cats—I bring both heart and hands-on knowledge to every dog I care for. I work from home and offer dog walking, pet sitting, and boarding 7 days a week. I love being outdoors and make time daily for walks, hikes, and playtime in nearby parks, trails, and beaches. I have twins in high school who were raised around animals and love spending time helping to walk, play, and socialize with our furry guests. Whether it’s a high-energy puppy, a senior dog needing special care, or a shy pup who needs patience and love, I adjust my schedule to meet each dog’s individual needs. I've cared for puppies and seniors needing medication, and everything in between. I'm located right near beautiful walking trails, and beaches, and dog-friendly parks—perfect for pups who enjoy both exercise and social time. When your pet stays with me, they’re part of the family. Safety, affection, and joy come first in our home—and yours. Let’s chat about how I can help care for your four-legged friend! I work from home and have plenty of flexibility to pay attention to your pet. I have twin teenagers who both love animals. Your pets won't be short on play mates or love here! I am right by a great park and trails for fun walks. I don't have a crate for sleeping, but I have comfortable dog beds. I cook for our pet milo, so if you need home cooking Ican accommodate that. Milo is almost 17 years old! He is part Corgi and Part Belgian Shepard. He loves other pets that visit us.
About: I have loved animals all my life. I have a special place in my heart for all animals. I have owned and taken care of animals for 40 years. I have a way about myself that puts animals on ease and makes them feel welcome. I can not wait to take the best care of your loved and cherished pet. Thank you for your consideration. I am currently on a sabbatical so I have plenty of time to pet sit. I am available weekends, evenings, and mornings. I am available for long-term arrangements. I have a small fenced yard and I love to go on long walks. I give pets lots off affection and attention if they want it. I also just let them relax if that is what they need. Either way I am a very attentive caretaker.
About: Hi! I’m a big dog lover who truly enjoys spending time caring for dogs and making them feel happy and safe. I know how special our pets are and how important it is to leave them with someone who will treat them with patience, kindness, and love. I have over two years of experience caring for my own dog, which has taught me how to understand their needs, routines, and personalities. My home is calm, loving, and a place where dogs can feel comfortable and relaxed. I will make sure your dog receives lots of attention, playtime, and affection so they feel at home. I treat every dog as if they were part of my own family. I also like to send photos and updates so you can see how your dog is doing and feel peaceful knowing they are being well cared for. Trabajo desde casa y vivo en un hogar tranquilo y lleno de cariño con un patio grande donde los peluditos pueden correr, jugar o simplemente relajarse al sol. Mi perro es muy dulce y amigable y le encanta tener otros perritos cerca. Trato a cada peludito como parte de la familia y me aseguro de que se sientan queridos, seguros y cómodos durante su estadía. I work from home, so I get to spend a lot of time with furry friends and give them plenty of attention, love, and playtime during the day. I enjoy having them around, going outside with them, and making sure they feel comfortable and happy. I try to follow their usual routine so they feel safe and at home.
“Jesse is super friendly. He was great at checking in and did so several times with pictures. He followed our instructions perfectly and our dog looked very happy. I would trust him to watch my dog again and recommend him to anyone looking for a great dog sitter! :)”
“We just moved to the area and are thrilled to meet Halee! We did a quick meet and greet and then sent our dog for the day. I was particularly appreciative that when our timing changed, Halee went above and beyond to be flexible with us. She took our dog on really long walks, and he came home so happy! She even gave me some helpful tips, when asked, of how to train and support our dog. We liked her so much. We are already doing an overnight with her later this week. She loves dogs and was willing to price her services competitively which we really appreciate. We highly recommend her!”
About: Hi there! I’m a dedicated and trustworthy pet sitter who truly understands that your pets are family. Whether it’s energetic dogs, independent cats, or a mix of both, I take pride in providing attentive, loving care tailored to each pet’s unique personality and needs. In my photos I have screenshotted a few reviews I have gotten on a different dog care platform. It is a joint account with my partner and we have had over ten house sits and have received 5 stars all around! The consistent positive feedback reflected on that profile shows not only my ability to care for both cats and dogs, but also my respect for clients’ homes—keeping everything clean, secure, and exactly as you left it. I understand the level of trust it takes to leave your pets and home in someone else’s hands, and I don’t take that responsibility lightly. I work from home, which allows me to provide consistent supervision, companionship, and flexible care throughout the day. I also have experience administering medication, so you can feel confident that your pet’s health routines will be handled safely and responsibly. As someone who loves being outdoors and staying active, I’m especially happy to take dogs on walks, hikes, and adventures suited to their energy level. Whether it’s playtime, cuddles, or sticking to a structured routine, I’m here to make sure your pets feel safe, happy, and loved. You can count on me for reliable communication, regular updates, and plenty of photos so you always feel connected while you’re away. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family! I work remote east coast hours so my schedule is very flexible and I am up bright and early. I’m a very active individual and make an effort to be outside as much as possible. I have very few meetings since my work is more project based so it’s so nice to have a buddy to be my shadow or to cuddle with during breaks!! Please refer to my TrustedHousesitters profile for reviews on my visits in the last year. In my home, I create a clean, pet-friendly space that’s secure, comfortable, and free of hazards, with plenty of supervision throughout the day since I work from home. I’m mindful of routines, feeding schedules, and individual needs to help pets feel settled and stress-free. In my clients’ homes, I prioritize maintaining your pet’s normal routine and environment to minimize anxiety while also respecting your space—keeping things tidy, secure, and exactly as you left them. I use safe walking practices, stay attentive during all interactions, and always keep a close eye on behavior and health. My goal is to provide a consistent, trustworthy presence so both you and your pets feel completely at ease.
“Ashley was great and Toby seemed very happy to be with her. The area around her apartment had nice paths to walk around and I think Tony had a very nice time with his visit to her. He will be back!”
“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!”
About: I was raised in a home full of dogs and cats. We took in any and all strays. Even had a pet duck that lived to be 12 years old. I have bottle fed puppies that the mom dog was too spoiled to care for and my English Bulldog taught me so much about how to deal with a dog with medical challenges. I'm patient and kind. I'm currently working as an assistant TK teacher and I only work part-time so I have plenty of time to watch over your fur babies. My apt is safe and I can take them on neighborhood walks or hikes. I'm fully capable of taking care of dogs or cats in my home or yours.
“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!”

“Chris is very caring and conscientious and we appreciate his attention to detailed instructions for our dogs so much. He arrived and took the dogs for their walk on schedule and even spent some time with them after their walk. Our dogs can be persnickety and willful but he is very patient with them.”
“Thomas has been a life saver for us with our dog Guinness. He is always on time, he is reliable, he is patient with our somewhat moody, large dog, and he has become our regular walker 3x per week. Thomas is super responsive to messages and seems to genuinely enjoy spending time with Guinness. I highly recommend Thomas !”
About: Having 2 dogs of my own I am well versed in every aspect of making pets feel loved and cared for! I have cared for pets for nearly 8 years house sitting overnight, taking pups for lengthy walks and doing check ins/ feedings. I make it my mission to bond with your pet and make sure they are comfortable. I am available for pet sitting when I am home from college. My schedule is mostly flexible with majority of my availability being in the afternoons/evenings on weekdays and all day on weekends. I make sure that pets have the chance to warm up to me and that I put their needs first. I am comfortable with judging when a dog wants to go for a longer walk or head home early. Similarly with cats, I am able to gauge if a cat needs extra play time or if they want to be alone to nap. I will always check in with you as the owner before I sit, to make sure I know exactly what your pet needs!
About: Hi, I’m Alex! Dogs have been part of my whole life — I grew up on a farm where we always had a pack of them around, learned early on how to read a dog's body language, energy, and needs. As an adult, I've channeled that into being a dog mom as well as fostering rescue dogs — helping them decompress, build trust, and find their footing — and also spending years caring for elderly dogs with the patience and gentleness they need. Now I'm a mom of 3 kids and 1 dog in Marin County. With a new baby and a serious need to get outside every day, walking dogs is my most perfect answer — and your dog gets a genuinely experienced, gentle, fully present walker who loves this as much as they do. I look forward to getting out on the trail or taking to the cool pavement with your pup and getting to know their unique needs and walking wants. Accepting small to medium size dog requests for walking. Let me know if you’d like to connect. I’m walking dogs for about an hour every day to get outside with my new baby and some furry friends. Fitness and fresh air for everyone! My environment of care I expect to provide will generally be the gentle neighborhood hike or neighborhood walk. I only walk one dog at a time, so this is a calming and personal experience for them. I may also have my baby with me so he can enjoy the outside from his carrier.
“Ariela was so communicative and easy to work with! We will definitely book her again. She was very responsive and was flexible with meet and greets. She is reliable, flexible, and has a warm energy.”
About: I’ve taken care of many dogs simultaneously for years and feel comfortable handling dogs of all sizes. I specialize in dog-walking and drop-in visits I’m currently available at all times of the day and spend most days in Marin County. I’m happy to drive up to 30 minutes. I have a fenced-in backyard at my home and many parks nearby that are great for walking dogs. I also have plenty of experience handling dogs off leash.
About: I co-owned two dogs with my neighbor as a child. My jobs was to walk and feed them. The first was a Saint Bernard who "decided" he wanted more space and fresh air and moved to the country. Later came a Golden lab. Then, we had milking goats, chickens, emus and rabbits... I have 2 cats I love dearly. They love walking around the yard showing me their favorite finds; usually it's a whole of some kind. I walk a lot on my own a Marin and can talk your furry well-behaved pet around your neighborhood and beyond. I am very dependable, always on time (unless major accident happens) and love all furry friends like my own pets. Available most days and/or week-ends between 8 AM and 9 PM for in home visits or dog or cat walking. Some cats like to go on walks too! Safety and the good physical and emotional health of your pet(s) are my priority. I will follow your health guidelines carefully and provide clean water upon each visit.
About: I myself have pets and I too am hesitant to leave anyone with them. I will treat your pet like it’s my own and keep you updated every step of the way! I am actively trying to get as many steps in as I can per day, so I love going on long walks! But I also love chilling on the couch with a shy or non-active pet. Weekdays: early morning drop-ins and evening walks (besides during July I am more open) Weekends: Any time with a head's up! I am a preschool teacher and tutor so please don't hesitate to reach out about scheduling, as my hours are flexible. I like to make sure the pet feels loved and safe first and foremost and I make sure to keep great communication with the client! I am very adamant on making sure all the necessary tasks are completed as well.

“We were worried that our Mimi would be very anxious away from us - but she fit right in to Deborah’s home and we were able to enjoy our time away knowing she was truly cared for. Deborah was great at communication too and seeing Mimi’s smiles in the pictures was wonderful. Definitely will ask Deborah again if the need arises. Thank you!”

About: I have grown up with pets my entire life, from large dogs (Golden Retriever, Labrador) and walking/feeding them everyday. To multiple cats at once, and other common pets. I pet sat for neighbors and family with a variety of pets: dogs, and cats. Including a cat that required twice a day insulin shots. Currently in my free time I volunteer as a shelter dog walker for Marin Humane. I am currently working from home and have plenty of time for walks, fetch, or just to hang out with your pet. Will be out of the house for a couple hours on Saturdays. I do not have a yard, but there are many great spots nearby for walks or hikes. I can also be flexible to the dogs schedule (food/walks). And since I work from home I can provide them with attention or a potty break at a moments notice.
“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.”
“Drake had such a wonderful time with Tula. I loved the updates throughout his stay, which gave me comfort knowing he settled in ok and was having a good time. Would definitely recommend her to anyone needing their dog watched, especially since Drake can be reactive to strangers and other dogs. She was very understanding and handled him with a ton of care.”
“Nadya was great! Her place is a relaxing retreat for the dogs, lots of sunny spots to lounge in the yard. She sent great pics while we were gone. She was kind, friendly and responds quick to texts. Would definitely recommend her.”

“Our dog had an amazing time with Diana! We got frequent updates on their fun adventures from the dog parks to running around her house and helping with homework (lol), and much more! Honestly our dog has been so well behaved after spending ~6 days with Diana. Highly recommend to everyone!”
“Ellen was professional from start to finish, making us feel our pup was safe and taken care of while we were away, including text and photo updates. Our doggo is a bit shy and anxious, and Ellen knew just how to connect with him and get to know his personality. It was our first time leaving our pup for a night away from home and we/our pup couldn’t have asked for a better first experience.”
“I'm so thankful for Rosa and Kevin taking such thoughtful care of my dog, Watson. It was my first time using Rover, so I really appreciated them taking time for my dog to get acquainted with them prior to her boarding and to ensure she got along well with their dog, Banksy. Thank you!”

About: Hello! I have cared for animals of every kind since I was able to hold a leash, brush a cat, and collect chicken eggs. I'm a Mill Valley mom, educator, and current owner of two sweet Cavalier King Charles Spaniels. I have owned cats, dogs, chickens, rodents and birds. I keep bees as an active beekeeper. I am experienced with medically fragile animals and am comfortable giving all meds, including subcutaneous fluids. My home is warm, safe, child and animal friendly. My yard is fenced and my children (ages 8 and 14) love share in the caring of animals. We would love to have your dogs join our pack for awhile! I am an educator and off for the summer. I have plenty of time to care for your pets along with my own. My kids and I stay local and have adventures and relaxing downtime all summer long. I have a large, fenced yard. My house is warm, cozy, pet and kid friendly. My dogs sleep on my bed and I'm fine if yours want to also. We love neighborhood walks and throwing balls in the backyard.
“Jesse did a great job caring for our dog for four days while it was boarded in his home. He shared pictures during the visit showing our dog happy and exercising. He was kind enough to let our dog have his place to himself, leaving his own dog with his parents. Jesse was also able to keep our dog for an additional day because of a schedule change. I would recommend Jesse to take care of your dog for walks, checking, and boarding.”
“Matt was patient and gentle with my senior dog, which was greatly appreciated. He kept in touch, was responsive and carried out my sleepy dog when I came to pick him up. I would definitely book Matt again!”
About: I have loved animals all my life. I have a special place in my heart for all animals. I have owned and taken care of animals for 40 years. I have a way about myself that puts animals on ease and makes them feel welcome. I can not wait to take the best care of your loved and cherished pet. Thank you for your consideration. I am currently on a sabbatical so I have plenty of time to pet sit. I am available weekends, evenings, and mornings. I am available for long-term arrangements. I have a small fenced yard and I love to go on long walks. I give pets lots off affection and attention if they want it. I also just let them relax if that is what they need. Either way I am a very attentive caretaker.
“First time experience with this sweet family dog-sitting for me. They went above & beyond to ensure a good experience for both my dog and me. We had our dogs pre-meet at a park a week before, they made drop-off-pick-up easy, and gave my pup lots of love & walks. They were great communicators throughout. Highly recommended!”
“Our Bernedoodle Wilbur had a wonderful time staying the night with Marisa and her sweet family. Marisa was loving and kind with Wilbur, giving me updates on how he was doing and his eating. We will definitely ask Marisa again to care for Wilbur. We highly recommend!”
“Mary was wonderful with our quirky boy. She sent photos of them having fun on hikes and of him looking relaxed at her house. We didn’t worry about him at all while away and he was happy and tired when we got home. A perfect experience all around.”
About: Warm dog mom to a 13-year-old dachshund! I provide a structured, fun, and cozy environment with potty breaks every two hours and plenty of walks I'm home full time as I transition to my next job in the Bay Area. I can help with overnight stays, walks and general dog care! In my home, I provide a structured, cozy, and safe environment for pets. I have a small patio with no escape route, ensuring a secure outdoor space. When walking dogs, I’m highly aware of my surroundings to keep them protected at all times. I do not crate my own dog, but I’m happy to do so if that’s your preference. Every pup in my care receives the same love and attention my dog gets, regular potty breaks, and plenty of blankets to make them feel at home!
