“Eunjun was very responsive and flexible when helping watch my dog Toby. She was willing to pick up Toby at a friends house nearby as we were out of town, and also was open to us picking up Toby earlier than scheduled. Such a huge help to have someone responsible and caring watch our senior pup!”
“Nathan took great care of Primo. Communication was easy from start to finish, and he sent regular updates with photos, which we really appreciated. Primo came home relaxed and happy, and it was clear he had been well looked after. We’d definitely book with Nathan again. Thanks!”
“Fabiano was amazing! He responded on short notice and saved me so much time and hassle. He was so easy to work with. The minute Tiny and I met him I felt at ease that I could trust him to take great care of her while I was away. And he did! I will definitely use Fabiano again!”
“Bee was an absolute lifesaver. We had a sudden family emergency and had to leave the country for two weeks. We needed someone to care for Presley at the last minute, and it was our first time ever leaving him, so we were understandably nervous. When we picked him up, we could tell he had been well cared for. Presley came home excited and healthy, which gave us so much comfort during such a difficult time. Her rates may be a little higher than some other sitters, but it was absolutely worth it for the peace of mind—especially with our last-minute dog sitting needs. We highly recommend Bee. Thank you!”
“I've left Mocha with Ivy a few times and she always takes great care of him. Mocha really likes seeing her and her family. She also sends me multiple pictures and updates. I definitely recommend Ivy.”
“Jenna was so great watching our little Dachshund. She arrived almost 15 minutes early to our meeting point. I was worried because our dog had never been away from us . In addition he also has separation anxiety when I am not around. To our surprise he connected with Jenna right away and didn’t even notice when I sneaked away. She took care of our Elliott as if it was her own per. I can highly recommend Jenna and will for sure book her again if needed. Thanks again so much Jenna for giving us an enjoyable night out.”
“Always a pleasure! Thank you so much for taking such good care of Bernard and sending daily updates with pictures. Really means a lot to be able to travel and know that my dog is in good hands!! 🥰”
“Wendy went above and beyond to take best care of Moddy! She took gorgeous pictures, picked amazing food and even rearranged her plans to work around a mishap on my side. Enormously impressed and grateful to Wendy!”
“Derek and Stella took great care of my pup. Oliver can be nervous with new folks but forgot all about me when he was with them. Thank you for all the great pics and updates!”
“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!”
“Great sitter! Super flexible and was able to take our dog, even though it was a last-minute request. Very responsive and sent lots of photos, which we really appreciated.”
“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)”
“Jenny and Dominic were so great to Moose! They were flexible, sent lots of updates, and their dog Riku made the stay a lot of fun for our dog. Highly recommend!”
“Kimberly took such good care of Chippy while we were away on vacation! It really made our time away more enjoyable to know he was being so well cared for. We got regular updates and photos which were so great. We had such a good experience with Kimberly that we're already booking with her again. Thank you Kimberly!!”
“Taylor watched Mara for a weekend. He sent regularly updates of our pup and was very easy and quick to communicate with! We picked up Mara and she was happy and rested. We recommend Taylor to other dog parents!”
“Henri had a great weekend at Paulina’s! She came out to greet us and then took the leash and introduced Henri to her home-he was so comfortable with her from the start. Our dog has hardly been away from us in his 7 years and I was a little nervous about leaving him with someone new, but I soon realized I had nothing to worry about. Paulina is a very relaxed person and sent updates and adorable photos each day. It made me happy to see him look so at home with her. Don’t let her lack of a backyard discourage you-Henri was happy and tired when we picked him up. We will call on her whenever we need a dog sitter for when we visit our daughter in SF. Paulina was an absolute lifesaver and we are so happy to have found her!”
“Another great stay at Katie’s! So comforting to have a reliable sitter nearby that is amazing with my little Poe and super accommodating. Highly HIGHLY recommend Katie if you need someone to watch your “little.””
“Jillian was amazing with my slightly neurotic dog! He came back happy and relaxed, which is absolutely not always the case. We will absolutely be using her again!”

“Mei was an absolutely amazing pet sitter! She took such wonderful care of my two kitties and treated my home with so much care and respect. She kept me updated with messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It was clear that she genuinely cared about my cats and made sure they were happy and comfortable. I came home to two relaxed, well-cared-for kitties and a spotless home. I feel so lucky to have found Mei and will absolutely be booking with her again!”
“Sylvia is the sweetest. She watched our two cats while we were out of town for over a week. She was super communicative and detail oriented. She even went above and beyond and cleaned up when our kitten made a huge mess of destroying multiple toilet paper rolls haha. I would not hesitate to book her again, and if you're reading this book her!!”
“Sara is an absolutely incredible cat sitter! She was wonderfully communicative throughout the entire process and always sent report cards promptly after every single visit. I especially loved the abundance of photos she shared of Sesame and Peanut playing and having a great time. Being away from them for this long was definitely nerve-wracking for me, but Sara’s thoughtfulness and exceptional care completely put my mind at ease. I cannot recommend her highly enough!”
“Sammy was an outstanding catsitter while we were away for an extended trip. She went above and beyond—vacuuming our entire apartment and always washing her hands before refreshing our cats’ food and water. The litter box was spotless every day, and her consistent updates kept us completely at ease about our “kids’” wellbeing. Both cats looked happy and healthy when we returned. Sammy is diligent, responsible, and thoughtful, and we’ll happily book her again whenever our schedules align. Highly recommend!”
“xinyuan did an amazing job! our kitten was a little skittish after being at home alone for a while, but xinyuan took the time to make sure she was comfortable and had everything she needed”
“I’m so glad and lucky I found Elena! She did a wonderful job with my cat Phoebe while I was out of town for close to a month. She was great with keeping me updated and sending lots of pictures. My cat warmed up to her really quickly! I would definitely reach out to Elena again to take care of Phoebe.”
“Olesia is the best! I was a little nervous using Rover for the first time while being away for a week, but she made the entire experience easy and stress free. She sent daily updates and pictures of my kitty, kept everything clean, and made sure the litter box was always taken care of. She’s kind, responsive, and cares about the pets she watches.”
“Kaki was fantastic. She was thorough, warm, and sent really detailed updates every visit, which made a huge difference - I felt completely secure leaving my cats with her. One of my cats is on multiple medications and not exactly cooperative about it, and Kaki handled that with no issues. My other cat, who sometimes takes a bit to warm up, took to her right away and got plenty of playtime in. Would absolutely book her again and recommend her without hesitation.”
“Samantha was simply incredible. She's a cat person through-and-through. She dropped by for daily visits for about a week and always left great videos and photos. Both of our cats have quirks, including picky eating habits, diabetes, and occasionally peeing outside their litter box. But Samantha wasn't phased by any of it. Our cats can be standoffish, but it was obvious that Samantha made them feel comfortable. I will absolutely be contacting her in the future to take care of our cats, and I recommend you do, too!”
“Highly recommend Natalie for kitty-sitting. She is thorough, attentive, and somehow won over my ultra-shy kitty! I received updates and tons of pictures of Natalie cleaning litter, refilling food and water, and playing with the kitties. She also went above and beyond to accommodate a key handoff while I was out of town. Thank you Natalie!!”
“Tamiya has been taking care of Alpine when we go for short trips and long trips out of town - both check ins and stays. She is our go-to because we fully trust her and Alpine LOVES her. Always on time, takes beautiful recap photos, and always gives us a report of how he’s doing. If we need her to help us with something ie change the water bowl, move a blanket she is always a text away. Thank you so much Tamiya!”
“Joslyn was awesome with my cat. It was her first time visiting and despite my little man being shy at first, he warmed to her immediately and took great care of him! She provided comprehensive updates and pictures following each visit, and I'll for sure be booking her again. Highly recommended!”
“Absolutely wonderful. Andreya took excellent care of our cats. She is a gem of an old soul who loves animals. Your fur babies are in competent caring hands with Andreya. Going to book her again.”
“Marian was amazing with my anxious and not always welcoming cat, Parsley, while we were away. She was super communicative, provided great updates and was able to really understand what my cat needed!”
“Incredibly grateful to Maria for her help watching my girls while I was away for a couple of days — she stayed at my place and sent daily updates/was extremely prompt with answers and overall very helpful/friendly. Definitely will reach back out to her again if I need someone to watch my two cats again !!”
“I asked Bora to take care of my cat for our short trip. My cat is very shy and easily scared of strangers, but she did an amazing job looking after him. She also sent me lots of photos and videos, which really helped me stay updated and feel at ease while I was away. I truly appreciated her care and attention, and I would definitely ask her again the next time I travel.”

“Wonderful mother, daughter and pup, mulan, team! My pup is usually very shy with ew people, but she loves to join them on all the cool outings and adventures. I am so grateful for Ivy, my pup doesn’t miss indoor daycare at all!”
“Richard is awesome! My puppy was really anxious to be going to a new place but Richard was so good at calming him down and sent me a photo a couple of hours later of Jambo playing with all his new friends. He messaged me photos throughout the day and assured me Jambo was doing great. My puppy slept all evening that first night so he'd gotten plenty of exercise. On the second day he was so happy to see Richard when we arrived so I knew he was going to have another great day. Richard also went the extra mile to get him his lunch since I had forgotten Jambo's special food. I highly recommend Richard to look after your pup - we'll definitely be back!”
“Tania is great! She's communicative, caring and understanding of a dog's needs. She contacted me prior to the booked time with questions and made sure she understood my dog's needs. Lovely person & great sitter, highly recommended!”
About: I’ve been a devoted dog dad for 18 years, most recently caring for my senior baby through her final years, including a custom home-cooked diet for kidney health. I said goodbye to her earlier this year, and while I’m not ready to bring home a baby of my own just yet, I miss having one around every day. Sitting and boarding lets me give that same love and attention to other babies in the meantime. I know how to spot subtle changes in appetite, energy, and mood, and I treat every baby in my care like my own. I work from home full-time in a flexible role, so your baby gets consistent company and attention all day, not just quick check-ins. I’m available for daytime care and overnight boarding. Your baby stays in a calm, quiet home with my full attention, no chaotic multi-dog daycare energy. I live right near a park, so your pup gets as many walks as they need to stay active and socialized, not just a quick backyard break. I’m also experienced with senior dogs, special diets, and medication schedules, and I treat every stay like I’m caring for family.
About: I’ve cared for 2 cats and 1 dog since I was 19. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to walk, feed, and bathe their pets! I work from home full-time in my apartment, which has a built-in dog park. Therefore, my schedule is pretty flexible on weekdays and weekends. I usually walk dogs in the morning and night time. I can also walk around the lunch time. I have a security alarm and camera in my apartment, so I can always monitor the pet running inside or outside.
“Shanice was amazing with Chevalier as this was his first time he was a bit anxious/shy but she worked with him and he opened up. I loved getting progress updates/photos atonsee that he was happy :) I’m so happy that we booked with Shanice!”
“Had no regrets leaving Buzz with Eunjee & her sweetest pup Theo. She gave multiple walks and outdoor plays and gave many videos and pictures updates throughout the day! Would 100% recommend anyone to trust their dog with Eunjee :)”
About: Hi pet parents, My name is Erin I'm the happy owner of a 2 yr old Chipoodle named Toki I have over 25 yrs experience caretaking, walking, sitting, training,bording and loving dogs of all shapes and sizes. I'm calm, sensitive and dependable. When your animal is in my care it's as if I'm the next best thing to you! I follow your directions exactly to ensure your animal is happy and content at all times. I offer a variety of services from dog walking, sitting and drop ins. I also have experience taking care of elderly and sick pups. I know leaving your kid with a stranger can be stressful I want you know that when your dog with me I treat as if it were my own. I have a pretty flexible schedule rn so your pet would be paid alot of attention and I take them for 3-4 walks a day I have a fenced yard..Toki would be a good buddy to play with or to give moral support. If I'm on your home I always follow instructions to a T and leave your home in better or the same way I found it.
“My dog had so much fun and was well taken care of. Also was willing to adjust to my dog’s dietary needs and had clear communication with me. Would recommend 10/10 for anyone looking for a sitter! :)”
“Ingyin sent videos and pictures to assure me my little Jinx was doing good. She was sweet, attentive, and very responsive. Would definitely have her watch Jinx again!”
About: Stanford professional and gentle dog lover who works 5 days/week from home in South Beach Soma SF. I can only accommodate 1-2 dogs (max) in my 1-BR condo and as I build my boarding experience, giving your dog(s) personalized attention and hugs and love. If you have 2 dogs, they will totally love being alone with me in my clean, cozy condo! I send regular pics and videos to you, so you can have a happy and care-free trip/vacation! And take them down regularly for walks and bio-breaks. :) ADVANTAGES: - Small dog groups (1-2 maximum) - Personalized 1-on-1 attention - Flexible scheduling (appts and cancellations) - Convenient location (easy drop-off/pick-up) DISCLAIMER: I don’t have much experience with untrained puppies and older dogs with complex medication routines. I work from home 5 days/week and can take care of your dogs during the week and weekend (especially long/holiday weekends). I can take them for walks as often as needed, due to my flexible work hours (I barely have any meetings/Zoom calls). You can schedule drop-off and pick-up anytime during the day or night. I live in a 800-sq ft 1-bedroom condo in South Beach SoMa, in the middle of the city, easy for drop-offs and pick-ups. Cute small balcony with artificial grass, where your dogs can sunbathe and enjoy fresh air for hours. Multiple elevators for going up and down (no stairs for your dog to climb). I only wish to accommodate 1 dog at a time, but 2 dogs are fine if they are siblings. If you have 2 dog siblings, this is the perfect place to drop them off, as they will be the only dogs with me.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs since 2013 and dogs have always been a huge part of my life. My first pup, Miko was a Pomeranian I adopted as a senior in 2013. He sadly passed away in 2018, but he taught me so much about caring for older dogs and giving them the patience, comfort, and love they deserve. In 2019, I adopted Dash, and it’s been me and him ever since. Through Dash, I’ve also gained a lot of experience caring for a dog with separation anxiety, and I understand how stressful it can be to leave your pup with someone new. Because of that, I’m especially attentive to dogs who struggle when their humans are away. I have a flexible schedule so your dog will never be left alone while in my care. I want them to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for and not like they’ve simply been dropped off somewhere. When your dog boards with me, it will be a team effort between me and Dash! Dash loves having company and if your pup is comfortable and enjoys other dogs, they’ll have a friendly companion to hang out and play with throughout their stay. Of course, I always take each dog’s personality and comfort level into consideration and make sure interactions are safe and positive. My goal is to make your dog feel like they’re having a little vacation of their own while giving you peace of mind that they’re in loving, attentive hands. I’ll treat your pup like family and keep you updated so you never have to wonder how they’re doing! 🐾❤️ I have a flexible schedule so I can give your fur babies plenty of attention and companionship throughout the day. I would feed your dog after their morning walk and night walk unless otherwise instructed. I would take the dogs on a potty break every 4 hours unless otherwise instructed. My dog’s name is Dash for a reason! 🤪 He loves to try to run out whenever he sees a door open and can be a bit of an escape artist. Because of this, I learned to be especially careful when opening exterior doors and making sure the dog is secured before opening the door.
About: Hello! My name is Alex and I’m dog walker. I grew up having dogs, cats, and rabbits. I also have experience watching pets while their owners are away. I am available during the weekdays and weekends. My schedule is very open and flexible. I am available for walks, sitting, and boarding. I’m in an apartment with access to an enclosed yard on the rooftop. My priority is to always make sure your baby is safe and comfortable and gets all the love they deserve.🥰🐶🐕🐕🦺🐾 I am home full time and my schedule is very open and flexible. I am available during the week and weekend to watch your pet. I have a beagle at home that is super friendly and loves making new doggy friends. She will be your pup’s new best friend :)
“Anderson and Pablo took incredible care of Huckleberry while I was away. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I’ll absolutely book with them again the next time we’re in San Francisco. Thanks again for taking such great care of Huck!”
“Yasmim and her wife took great care of Lua for the day! I could tell they really liked her, and her them! Yasmim was communicative and sent lots of updates. 10/10 - would recommend ❤️”
“I am so grateful that I found Mengying!! She was so warm and loving with my poodle - my dog instantly ran to her the first time they met. I’m typically very anxious to leave my dog with new sitters (especially since we just moved to SF) but I Would 100% rebook consistently.”
“Fabiano was super great with my puppy Taco and Taco loved hanging out with him! We’ll definitely be going back. Fabiano also sent pics and videos and communicated quickly to let us know how Taco was doing. 10/10 would recommend :)”
“Remy and his daughter provided great care for our dog. We booked daycare last minute, and it was easy to coordinate all the logistics with him on a tight timeline. We are grateful!”

“David is great!! He is kind and knows what he is doing with dogs. He has been flexible with my busy schedule and great with my dog!!! I couldn't give a higher recommendation!”
“Elric has been walking my dog a few times now, and I appreciate his approach with Izzy. She's very bonded to me and getting her to go with a walker, while I'm home, is a pretty difficult task, but Elric manages it quite well. He shows the right amount of assertiveness, kindness, coaxing and patience. I appreciate that he showed interest in anything that might set Izzy off, things she likes, etc. And I really appreciate that he actually takes her on a walk (I've had some walkers who just circle the block for 20 minutes!). All in all, it's working out well.”
“Thank you Olesia for watching our boys! You were absolutely amazing!!! You kept is updated with photos and messages and followed all our instructions perfectly. I know our high energy puppy is a lot of work! Thank you again.”
About: I have a 12 year old family dog, Bear, who lives in Washington and I miss very much so I love any chance to be near animals! Throughout college I dog sat for a family who had 2 mid-size dogs, and this past summer I watched an adorable 16 year old calico. I am currently studying for nursing school applications so I have a very flexible schedule and am looking forward to helping take care of your pet! I am currently taking pre-requisite classes for a nursing program so my days are fairly free except when I have to go in for labs. I am available for daytime visits and walks, as well as pet and house sitting. I am unable to care for pets in my home but am more than happy to come to your home and take care of your pets. I am used to feeding both cats and dogs, and also with giving animal medication.
About: I have been working and volunteering with animals since I was 17 years old and have been dog sitting/walking for 5+ years on wag walker! I was a dog groomer with Natural Pawz for 1 and a half years and volunteered with friends fur life for half a year! Have always worked with animals and am very passionate about their health and well being. My days revolve around animal care whether it’s dog sitting/walking or caring for the cats in my neighborhood! My neighborhood used to have a huge problem with aggressive stray cats or loose dogs so I began working with local animal shelters and clinics on getting them fixed through TNRing. Have found homes for dogs that were dropped off on my street and most of the cats on my street are now fixed and vaccinated! They’re no longer as aggressive as they used to be and their health conditions have improved significantly. I live in a gated house with plenty of space in the back for cats and dogs to have outdoor time. There is an empty guest room in case any pet needs some space or quiet or just for ones who may be shy or prefer to be alone.
“Shannon was great with Gus! He was always on time, accommodated for the rain and took him on a long 60 minute walk. Gus was excited to see him everyday. Shannon was very responsive and easy to work with!”
“Matthew was a fantastic walker for our puppy Zeus for the week. He took great care with Zeus, was respectful in our home and always responded very quickly and professionally. Confidently would recommend Matthew - thank you.”
“Carolyn is nice, communicative, reliable, and trustworthy. She walked my dogs every day at least once per day (occasionally booked for twice per day) for about 1.5 weeks while I was at work. I would book with her again.”
“Margaux is incredibly reliable and treats my dogs with care and patience. My pups always come home happy, relaxed, and well-exercised. I feel completely at ease knowing they’re in such good hands.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was a kid! I’ve volunteered at the local animal shelter since high school. I also have my best friend who’s a veterinarian on speed dial as well! I currently work remotely so my schedule is flexible and I’m available on weekends for dog walks and drop in visits. I can do drop in feedings and walks up to 3 times a day during the week and longer time blocks on the weekends. I can only care for pets in the clients home. I’m not allowing to have pets in my apartment. I can make sure they are fed regularly and give lots of love.
About: I am a responsible, experienced dog/cat owner-lover and will treat yours like my own. I was raised in a family that had dogs including 3 dachshunds, a mutt, and a chow over the years. As an adult I have been the loving pet parent to three adult cats consecutively. Very comfortable around cats and dogs. Available for dog-walking, cat/dog drop-in's, and daytime extended stay drop-in's / house-sitting (no overnights). I have worked remotely for over ten years so have a very flexible schedule. Walking your dog or visiting your cat would be a pleasure and a chance for some fresh air and exercise. I do this for supplemental income during my free time and the opportunity to visit different neighborhoods. I am available daytime hours, not overnight (mid-morning til before sunset). I will give your cat or dog as much or little attention in your home as you (or they!) specify. Reliable, trustworthy. Not able to care for your pets at my home.
“Paula is my absolute favorite! She is very reliable and treats Gunner like he’s her own pup. She’s been my primary Rover for months; Gunner’s walker again and again!”
About: What sets me apart is that I don’t just care for pets—I build trust with them. I take the time to understand their personality, comfort level, and daily routine so they feel relaxed and valued. I’m dependable, patient, and committed to giving each pet the same kindness and attention I would want for my own. From keeping playful pets entertained to providing calm companionship for older or more sensitive animals, I focus on creating a safe, loving environment where pets can feel comfortable while their owners are away. Pet care fits perfectly into my current routine because I have a flexible schedule during the week and enjoy spending my extra time doing something meaningful. I currently work part-time on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays, which leaves me plenty of availability to provide reliable care, attention, and companionship for pets throughout the week. I see pet sitting as more than just a side job—it’s an opportunity to spend time with animals, keep them comfortable in their own environment, and give pet parents peace of mind knowing their pets are cared for by someone dependable and loving. I care for pets by creating a safe, comfortable, and stress-free environment where they can feel at ease. In a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal as possible by following feeding schedules, providing playtime, cleaning up after them, and giving them plenty of attention and affection. I understand that pets feel most comfortable in familiar surroundings, so I take the time to learn their habits, preferences, and needs. Whether it’s walks, cuddles, enrichment, or simply keeping them company, I provide dependable care that helps pets feel happy and secure while their owners are away.
“Tamiya was absolutely amazing. She communicated so well, responded timely to anything I asked her, and took such great care of my pup. I could tell my dog was happy, relaxed, and 100% comfortable in Tamiya’s hands. Can’t recommend her services enough!”

“Henri had a great weekend at Paulina’s! She came out to greet us and then took the leash and introduced Henri to her home-he was so comfortable with her from the start.

Paulina was an absolute lifesaver and we are so happy to have found her!”
“Jillian was amazing with my slightly neurotic dog! He came back happy and relaxed, which is absolutely not always the case. We will absolutely be using her again!”
“Thank you so much for taking such great care of Choo Choo! Communication was excellent, and you always responded quickly, which gave me peace of mind. I really appreciated the tour of your place, and I loved that you have a balcony where Choo Choo could hang out. You were also very accommodating with all of my requests. It was obvious that you genuinely cared about Choo Choo and wanted the best for him. I would definitely book with you again and highly recommend you to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter.”
“Irina is an incredibly kind, passionate, and professional dog sitter. She took my dog on adventures all around the city and spent relaxing days with her. She regularly sent me photo updates, and it made me so happy to see how well she was cared for and how much fun she was having. I'm grateful for her help and would recommend her to everyone.”
“Rosalie and Frank were simply amazing. We will definitely be reaching out to them again when we are in the city. They took great care of my senior dog and were super gentle with his needs (meds, walks, back issues, etc.). You won't go wrong with them. Thanks guys!”
“Yasmim and Kaline went above and beyond to make sure that Jack felt comfortable and secure while I visited my family. Jack has bad separation anxiety, and I really appreciated their efforts. They kept me well informed with frequent messages, photos, and videos, and I could see that Jack was chilling and relaxed. They even captured his goofy smile! Jack takes several medications, and they dosed him on time and without complaint from him. I highly recommend them!”
“Victoria is amazing! She took care of Bear for ~10 days and kept me updated with all the fun doggy dates each and every day. She made my vacation truly worry free. After picking up Bear kept looking behind for Victoria since we were leaving her. He loves her and I can see it. Definitely booking her again for my next vacation in November!”
“Megan is awesome. She has a fantastic place with a nice backyard I’m sure Max enjoyed. Max was recovering from an injury and Megan took great care, keeping that cone of shame firmly in place. We will definitely leave Max with Megan again!”
“Jocelyn was amazing with our dog, who can be a bit energetic and tough for some folks. She took care of her like her own and was very communicative throughout the weekend. It’s clear she loves dogs and knows how to manage them while showing them a great time. We are already relieved for the next time we’ll need boarding services knowing that our dog will be with Jocelyn!”
“Maddie always has fun with Heidi going on walks and frequenting the dog park. When I get home Maddie’s excited but also ready to lounge in the couch and sleep from all her fun activities while I was gone.”
“Alina is fantastic! She is always so friendly and compassionate. She sends updates and messages about his status along with photos. I feel completely confident leaving my pet with her.”
“Gabby is literally THE. BEST. EVER. Absolutely amazing. Pablo can be a bit difficult and intense (to say the least, he's an Aussie after all), and has some quirks that require certain accommodation. He always wants attention. Sticks to people like velcro. Loves to bark at strangers. Plenty of exercise. But he's just a sweetie at heart and Gabby immediately recognized that. I was gone for a week and it was clear that they really bonded. Usually Pablo is ecstatic when we return from trips/have been away, but this time it was clear that he was going to miss her and had been having a blast. Gabby followed all of my directions to a tee, gave constant updates and took amazing pictures and videos (really above and beyond), and made sure that Pabs was comfy, happy, and well-attended to at all times. Outside of leaving him with my own family (who he's very familiar with), Gabby took the best care of him of anyone who's ever watched him (she may even beat out my fam honestly). I would trust her to watch Pablo ANY time, and can't recommend her or praise her enough. Just know that with Gabby, your pet will be in the best/kindest/most loving hands possible. And outside of how great she is with Pablo, she's just a wonderful person in general. Kind, smart, responsible, intuitive. So great. Gabby, again, I can't thank you enough and hope that Pablo is able to spend more time with you in the future! 15/10.”
“We had a great experience boarding our pup with Go. He is very quick to respond, communicates clearly and is very pleasant and friendly. We had a meet and greet twice before we actually left my pup with Go and his wife. They were kind to Hira, asked good questions, clearly went through my care instructions. We felt comfortable boarding for almost 3 weeks. Throughout the stay Go sent pictures, and kept us informed. They took Hira to the park every day and she seemed very happy and comfortable with them. We will definitely rebook for our next trip! Highly recommend! Thanks Go!”
“Katie is such an amazing sitter. My dog can be a bit skiddish around new folks but he warmed up to Katie immediately. She was so easy to communicate with and kept me updated with cute photos. It really put my mind at ease knowing my dog was being loved on by such a kind and warm person 🥹”
“Emily is an incredible sitter for my little guy. She sends amazing videos and photos throughout the day and you can tell she loves taking care of him. I’m so lucky that I found her!!”
About: I’ve taken care of all dogs, and had an English Cream Golden Retriever named Lucy growing up. I trained her as a puppy and cared for her all the way into senior care. I’m great with all pet ages, don’t mind washing/cleaning your pet, giving long walks, or anything else your pet loves to do. I will always make sure your pet has the best time when they’re with me! Pet care is best for me from Thursdays - Sundays, as well as holidays. I work full time in person, but am back home usually by 5:15. I make sure to write down everything about the dog. Eating schedule, bathroom schedule, etc. Recently, I just set up a camera for the dog I just dogsat to make sure nothing is going wrong. I clean the dog’s paws to ensure that they aren’t dirtying the home. I also vacuum and wipe down once a day. I would love to meet you and your pet!
About: Saw my childhood dog through 16 full years of life and dogsat many breeds for family and clients over the last 15 years. Volunteer of 2 years at a senior dog rescue and dog body language and safety trained. Experienced with puppies all the way through seniors with special needs such as vision loss, hearing loss, anxiety and medication administration. Happy to provide further references. Work fully remote and make my own hours, so my schedule is highly flexible and I'm home to give lots of attention during the day. No other pets at home, but female roommates who will give lots of belly rubs. A stone’s throw from Alamo Square dog park and close to Panhandle and Golden Gate Park for plenty of green space. With remote work, I’m happy to house sit if that would make your pet more comfortable.
