“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.”

“Rachel and TC made drip-in visits to take care of my energetic 10 month old kitten while I was away for the weekend. I cannot recommend them enough! They were so professional, respectful, thoughtful and caring. It gave me total peace of mind while I was traveling. They communicated regularly, with detailed updates on how my cat was doing before and during visits with lots of picture updates and thought of creative ways to exercise her kitten energy. It was a very easy and positive experience 🤗”
“Xinyuan did a fantastic job taking care of Sunny while we were on vacation. It was our first time leaving him home alone for five days, and she made the experience completely stress-free. She kept us updated at every visit and followed all of my instructions carefully. Sunny is usually very shy around strangers, but with her it was a different story. By the last few days, he was comfortable playing with her and even sitting beside her. I would absolutely hire her again and highly recommend her to friends and family.”
“This was my first time using cat sitting service through Rover. Sammy sent very thorough updates on my kitty. She also administered daily medication. Her daily detailed update and photos helped me continue my trip. She also kept everything organized and clean. I could see my kitty warming up to her in time. I am glad Sammy was there for my kitty while I was away. Thank you so much for your kind, sincere care for Nora!!!”
“Brunella was amazing! She went above and beyond for our two cats, playing with them constantly, sending beautiful pictures, and cleaning up a bathroom accident. Would strongly recommend her to anyone!”
“Tyler has been very communicative for the entire duration and my cat absolutely adores him. Tyler even checked in to make sure I was getting back from my vacation in case he needed to stop in for another day. I would absolutely work with Tyler again!”
“Alison was excellent! She is kind, responsible, helpful and we will definitely book her again. She followed all our instructions and went above and beyond them. Thank you for watching our cats!”
“Ekaterina was great as always with our two cats! She cleaned the litter boxes, filled water bowls and played with them :) she also gave one of our cats his asthma inhaler! Thank you for taking care of them and for all the pics every time!”
“Sebastian was great to work with! They were super nice, great communicator, and did a thorough job every visit. I will definitely be reaching out to them again for future trips.”
“We cannot thank Hannah enough for the incredible care she provided for our two cats over 15 days. One of our cats fell very sick right before our trip—he was lethargic, malnourished, and required daily medication and a special ointment for his ears. We were so worried about leaving him, but Hannah put us completely at ease. When we returned, our sick cat was like a different animal—he had gained weight, was active, and clearly felt much better. It’s clear that Hannah went above and beyond to ensure he received his medication and care with patience and love. On top of that, our cats are messy eaters, but when we came home, the apartment was spotless. Hannah even cleaned the bathroom and kitchen, which we greatly appreciated. Hannah’s dedication, professionalism, and genuine love for animals shine through in everything she does. We couldn’t have asked for a better caregiver, and we will definitely be booking her again in the future. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!”
“Andrea's super attentive and caring and followed all instructions wonderfully! She got along really well with my cat, would definitely book again in the future!”
“Joslyn responded to a very last minute request and was fantastic looking after my June for a few days! She had an ear infection and required ear drops and Joslyn was very patient in wrangling her and making sure she didn’t miss her medicine while I was out of town. Also loved the consistent updates and safe handling of my keys + space. Really appreciate her help and would totally book her again.”
“Matt agreed to sit my two cats on short notice which was really great. He was prompt in his response and followed all my instructions (and then some!). I really appreciated his professionalism and courtesy, would gladly contact him again if needed!”
“Maria did a fantastic job with my two adult cats - one of whom has epilepsy and needs medication twice daily. I appreciated the care and attention she provided them and the photo and video updates.”
“Anna was an incredible sitter! We had to leave our two cats alone for about two weeks due to overseas travel, and Anna went above and beyond to care for them. She visited regularly, played with them, and made sure they were happy and well-fed. We especially appreciated the adorable and fun photos she sent us during each visit. Most importantly, when one of our cats started acting abnormally and showing signs of stress, Anna immediately recognized something was wrong and took him to the emergency vet. Her quick action and calm approach helped ease our worries during a very stressful time. She even went the extra mile by visiting more frequently afterward to ensure he received his medication and extra attention. We’re so grateful for her help and would absolutely love to have her sit for our cats again in the future!”
“Kym was incredible! She could not possibly have made my cat shark feel more comfortable in her space and by offering him lots of affection and attention throughout his stay. She also made me feel great, with on-point communication and lots of photos and updates. She even went above and beyond by giving Shark a ride home since I was not able to come pick up! Absolutely hoping to work with Kym again.”

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.
“This was my first time leaving our dog with a sitter, and I was more nervous than my pup! But they did a great job taking care of him and providing me with updates throughout the day.”
“Kristin is great! She was flexible and organized, and perhaps most importantly Eva was quite happy to see her and Moppy on the second day. As a bonus I got some of the best cutest pictures ever during sitting.”
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.
“Bodhi LOVES Richard! He gets excited whenever I bring him over, and that makes me feel so much better about leaving him with someone else. Richard's super easy to communicate with and really responsive. Both Bodhi & I are grateful to have found him!”
“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 :)”
“Ivy is so kind and great with my 2 dogs. I was able to have a great time exploring SF while knowing my dogs were in good hands. I got lots of photo updates on how they were doing. And Ivy was very easy to communicate with and flexible with our schedule. I strongly recommend her, extra bonus, she has an easy spot to pull the car over to drop the dogs off. Would 100% book with her again if we come back to SF.”
“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: I just moved here from Boulder, Colorado. I have a flexible schedule and can check in on your animal throughout the day. I have experience with cats and dogs - and have 2 cats myself! I just moved to the city and my partner and I have flexible work from home hour. We would love to watch your furry friends while you’re away. I treat all animals that I watch as if they are my own. Their safety and happiness are my top priorities when watching your pets.
“Can’t say enough great things about Lois and her partner!! Not only is she super responsive and sends great updates throughout the day, but the pictures are amazing. Definitely have a few new background photos of my sweet Basil. lol Looking for peace of mind and kind people to take care of your pet - book with Lois!!”
“Maria provided excellent care for Oxy during his daycare appointment. Her professional, communicative, and confident manner immediately put me at ease. I especially appreciated her thoughtful questions at drop-off and the detailed feedback she shared at pick-up. Oxy seemed relaxed and content, and his meeting Daphne (the sweetest dog!) was a fun bonus. We look forward to working with Maria and seeing Daphne again!”
“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! :)”
“Ms Shanice is a very gentle person. My doggie seems she had a great time at her place. Also her doggie is the perfect assistant!! It was the first time for our doggie to stay in the dog day care or with someone else, but our family is very happy that Ms. Shanice could help our doggie for the new experience.”
“He was so amazing and accommodating! Loved Anthony and Brody loved him too. Best part he made a joke that he tired our Brody from a full day of play and I loved that! Made our commute home easy. Highly recommend him!”

“I cannot recommend him enough! Over the 10 days he walked our two pups, Picaron and Polo, he was consistently warm, reliable, and incredibly thoughtful. Every update was detailed, playful, and full of personality, like little love letters about my dogs’ day. From keeping water bowls fresh, noting quirky potty habits, cleaning Polo’s fur when he got a little too curious, to capturing adorable photos every day, he clearly loves what he does. We felt completely at ease knowing our dogs were not only safe, but also having fun and forming a bond with someone who truly cared. He even knew who was doing fake limps for attention (Polo 😂). It’s rare to find someone this communicative, caring, and tuned in. If you’re lucky enough to book him, do it!”
“Jungeun is consistent, kind, and goes above and beyond to communicate with us and take care of our senior dog. We are so grateful for all of the care she puts in to walking Cooper! Thank you!”
“Elric was great with my dog! Definitely recommend him to anyone who is looking for a dog walker. He was also super responsive and was able to help me out last minute. Also provided updates throughout the walk. Thanks Elric!!”
“Alison was great with my senior dog! She asked questions to understand the best way to work with him, communicated clearly throughout the process, and took him on a nice walk during the day where everything went according to plan.”
About: Hi! I’m an experienced and dependable pet sitter and dog walker with a genuine love for animals of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I currently own a German Shepherd, so I’m very comfortable caring for large, strong, and active dogs. I also grew up with a Cockapoo, which gave me experience with smaller breeds and different exercise and care needs. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, potty breaks, and plenty of attention and companionship while you’re away. I’m happy to take dogs on long walks, play their favorite games, follow their normal routines, and provide updates so you can feel confident that your pet is safe and well cared for. I currently have full-time availability, which allows me to be very flexible with scheduling and spend plenty of quality time with the pets in my care. Whether your dog needs a quick walk, extra exercise, or someone dependable to keep them company, I’ll treat them with the same care and attention I give my own pets. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, and I always prioritize safety, communication, reliability, and making sure every pet feels comfortable and loved! Pet care fits very easily into my daily routine because I have a very flexible schedule and am available throughout the week. I’m able to accommodate morning, afternoon, and evening walks or visits, and I’m happy to work around each dog’s normal routine. Safety and trust are always my top priorities when caring for pets. I treat every dog like my own and make sure they feel comfortable, secure, and cared for at all times. I always follow the owner’s instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walking routines, crate preferences, and any special rules for the home. In a client’s home, I am respectful of their space and make sure their pet’s routine stays as normal as possible. I pay close attention during walks, keep dogs safely leashed, avoid unsafe situations, and make sure they get the right amount of exercise, attention, and care. As a German Shepherd owner, I am comfortable caring for dogs with different sizes, energy levels, and personalities. I understand how important patience, structure, and consistency are, especially when caring for strong or high-energy dogs. My goal is to make both pets and owners feel completely comfortable and confident.
About: I’m a passionate dog lover and the proud owner of a sweet, medium multi-gen Doodle who is incredibly friendly with both people and other dogs. My dog is fully socialized and loves making new playmates, meaning your pup will have an instant best friend and built-in playdates during their stay! I truly believe dogs are the best things in the world, and I treat every guest pup with the same love, structure, and attention as my own. Whether it’s active playtime, cozy cuddles, or maintaining their daily routine, your dog will be in safe, loving hands. I can't wait to meet your furry family member! I work full-time in tech, which means my weekdays are generally busy. However, I am happy to host weekday boarding for small, independent dogs who are comfortable relaxing nearby while I work. My weekends, on the other hand, are entirely dedicated to dog adventures! Since I spend my weekends hanging out and playing with my own friendly dog, Monday, your pup will get undivided attention, plenty of outdoor time, and a built-in playmate. If you need weekend boarding, daycare, or walking, please reach out—I'd love to help I live in a cozy, dog-friendly 1-bedroom apartment near SF City Hall. It’s the perfect, secure size to comfortably host up to two dogs at a time, ensuring everyone gets plenty of personal space and one-on-one attention. We also have a wonderful, trusted group of local dog-owner friends nearby for safe, supervised socialization. Safety is my top priority. My home is fully dog-proofed. While my own pup is fully free-roaming, I keep a clean, extra-large crate on hand. If your dog feels more secure sleeping or resting in a crate, I am more than happy to set it up to make them feel right at home.
About: I’ve been around Dogs since I was 12 and regularly Dog-sat and walked dogs for family members and friends until I was 21 years old. After graduating from the UW at 21 with a pre-law degree, I adopted my baby girl Dahlia. I’ve become a very proactive and efficient handler since, as Dahlia was adopted from an abusive household. I specialize in reading body language, positive-reinforcement, and am able to handle small to extremely large Dogs since Dahlia is a 90 pound Mastiff mix. I recently moved from Seattle to San Francisco to start law school, and decided it would be best for to leave my Dahlia with my parents, for a better quality of life. It’s my goal to take care of and bring the joy your pets deserve, as I would do for my Dahlia. Currently, I’m a law student in the city and do not work to focus on studying. As a result, my schedule is fairly flexible. I’m able to care for your pets before, between, and after classes. Moreover, I have a both a bicycle and a car so transportation is no issue for me. I have experience with dogs that must be kenneled, dogs that are allowed to sleep in the bed, dogs that must be kept close on a leash, dogs that are allowed to explore on a lead, and all other options in between. I’m able to adapt to every dog’s “rule-set” established by their owner. Whether you’re a laid-back dog parent, or a more strict one; I’m able to adapt to each owners preferences and wishes based on how you treat your furry babies.
“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.”
About: Hi there! I'm Charlie, and I'm passionate about providing excellent care to your four legged family members. I have been working with dogs professionally for seven years, starting as a dog handler at a doggie daycare, then moving on to teach group classes for puppy training, basic obedience, and agility at a dog training facility, then specializing in puppy socialization at a local puppy dayschool! I value the comfort and wellbeing of any creature I work with, both physical and emotional, which is why I abide by force free/fear free methods. I am well versed in dog body language, have a good understanding of the principles of dog behavior and positive reinforcement based training, as well as early puppyhood development. I'm not just a dog person though - ever since I was a kid, I always had cats! In addition to having my own pet cats, I fostered pregnant mama cats and their kittens. I hope you consider choosing me to care for your best pals! I am available for walks and drop ins with pretty flexible availability, and am more than happy to drop by to love on your pet while you're at work! I care about ensuring that your pet is comfortable, safe, and happy, which is why I use force free/fear free methods in every interaction. Your pet deserves to feel comfortable with me and have their emotional needs respected in addition to their physical needs. And of course, I want your pet to have fun when they're with me! I like to keep things playful and lighthearted on any walk or drop-in. That's the best thing about pets!
“I recently hired Selena to walk my dog while I was out of town for three weeks, and I couldn’t be happier with her service. She is incredibly friendly, punctual, and reliable—qualities that gave me total peace of mind while I was away. My dog absolutely adores her, which is the most important thing to me! Selena goes above and beyond by sending lots of photos and videos after each visit, which made me feel connected to my dog even from afar. Her updates were always detailed and full of happy moments, showing how much she truly cares for the dogs she looks after. I highly recommend Selena to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog walker. She’s simply awesome!”
About: Animal lover, party of one! I love animals more than people and I'm not ashamed of it! They bring out the best in all of us and I can't wait to spend some time with yours :) I'm home full-time, so your baby will have all of my attention and care. We'll take long hikes, days at the beach and the park. There is a dog park right around the corner from my apartment! Happy to take your cat on a walk to, if they are so inclined :) I worked at a Vet Hospital for 2 years, so I am comfortable with basic medical needs, i.e. administering meds, subq injections, etc. I've watched cats, dogs, snakes, lizards, hedgehogs, chinchillas, because yes I also volunteer at a zoo. I can't wait to meet you and your baby! Santé!
About: Hi! My name is Edith and I’m a pet lover who’s excited to offer walks and day care through Rover. I work from home, which means my schedule is super flexible—perfect for regular walks, last-minute changes. I live in the Rincon area so if you work nearby, you can feel at ease leaving your dog here! I walk them multiple times a day and give them plenty of cuddles between meetings! I genuinely enjoy being outside and staying active, so taking pups for walks is one of my favorite parts of the day. Whether your dog loves leisurely sniff-walks or a brisk, energy-burning stroll, I’m happy to match their pace and make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for. I’m reliable, communicative, and always focused on giving pets the attention they deserve. I look forward to meeting your furry friend and helping keep their routine happy and consistent! I’m also free after 2pm so if you need a dog walker a bit further away, please reach out You can use my booking code, EDITHL75941, https://www.rover.com/sit/edithl75941 I work from home and wake up early so I would wake up, feed your pet and then do 1-2 walks during the day while I work and then in the evening as well. I spend a lot of my time home during the week so it’s easy for me and I truly enjoy it. I also volunteer at the dog shelter because I genuinely love dogs and would love to open my own doggy day care in the future! I have a dog name Jack! Jack is anxious, sweet old man that enjoys his alone time so whenever I have a pet around, he just ignores them. I work from home so your pet won’t be home alone for long periods of time and they will have all of my attention. I live near the Embarcadero so there’s plenty of areas to walk around! I also have a car and can take them to parks if that’s something the owner would like!
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.
About: My passion for both dogs and athletics makes me a great candidate to walk your dog and/or make sure your dog stays active during boarding! I've been around dogs since I was a kid and I love how smart, loyal, and therapeutic they are. I also ran high school varsity cross-country in the Nevada desert, so I have stamina and I love running, mountain running, incline walking, power-walking, and just walking in general. Walking my mini goldendoodle, Vail, is one of my favorite things to do in life and we both look forward to our walks every day. My dog Vail is spoiled rotten and it would be my pleasure to spoil your dog, too! Vail is part of the family and is my top priority! My dog eats, drinks, and is taken care of before I am. Your dog will be family and come before I do as well!
About: As a child, I was always around or had pets in the house. As an adult, I have been lucky enough to be a part of 6 wonderful dogs lives. I helped 3 friends care for their dogs over the years when they were unable. One of which, Mr. Mokes an Australian Shepard, I saw through his end of life until his passing after his owner had to be transferred to long term care until her own death. I was also blessed with 2 amazing doggy souls since puppies; Lucy, a sweet Pitty baby and King, a medium Terrier mix. Unfortunately, they both passed away after over 14 years of remarkable experiences and memories together. My heart is still healing from their loss but now also has lots of room to care for and make memories with your furry family members. I have taken a step back from my Office Manager position of over 7 years so that I can work with animals full time, a lifelong goal and passion of mine. I still have part time hours but I am pretty flexible during the week for your pet care needs. I am able to adapt to any specific rules, routines, and training for your dog while in your home or on walks. Please let me know the details and I will be happy to accommodate.
About: Hi! If you’re looking for a caring, responsible sitter who will give your pup lots of love and attention, you’re in the right place! I mostly work from home with a flexible schedule and live with my sweet Maltipoo puppy, Moppy. She’s spayed, fully vaccinated, well-socialized, and absolutely loves making new friends. :) I’ve raised two puppies myself and cared for dogs for years, so I really understand how different each dog’s needs can be, especially puppies. Moppy went to puppy school and has been well-socialized, and through that experience I’ve learned a lot about dog body language, leash walking, and building good habits. Watching her grow has been so rewarding, and I’d love to help reinforce positive routines with your pup too. I’m patient, attentive, and happy to follow your dog’s schedule. I know how important consistency is! Here’s what your dog can look forward to: • Regular potty breaks and outdoor walks • Playtime with a gentle, social pup • A calm, clean, dog-friendly home • Lots of love, attention, and cuddles! • Frequent updates so you can relax while you’re away. I’m a dog parent too and also use Rover for my own pup. Moppy is crate-trained and gets along beautifully with dogs of all sizes. She’s playful but gentle, a little companion who helps keep other dogs entertained and happily tired out. Because of her small size, I currently only accept dogs under 15 pounds to make sure everyone stays safe, happy, and comfortable. A meet and greet is required for first-time bookings. It’s a great chance to see how the pups get along and for you to feel completely at ease leaving your dog with me. Whether your pup needs a calm, safe space to relax, someone to stick to their routine, or just a fun day with a new friend, I’d be happy to help! I work from home most days (and only list availability on those days), so I’m able to give your dog plenty of attention. I take my own dog on regular potty breaks and long walks to nearby parks, we live close to several great parks! I’ll also have time for play, enrichment, and basic training throughout the day. My place is facing a patio, so it’s easy to take dogs out for quick and frequent potty breaks. Since I already have a small puppy, my home is dog-safe and I’ve got plenty of enrichment toys, games, healthy treats, and other things that might come in handy.

“Baiyu was an incredible sitter for Boogie! Excellent communication and check-ins, and even groomed him every night. Hugely appreciated the care and Boogie was ecstatic when I picked him up. Thank you!”
“Zubin is a fantastic dog sitter! Very attentive to my dog. He sent pictures & communication, which was super nice. He was wonderful at administering my dog’s prescribed medication. Zubin is a perfect Rover! 💯”
“I'm not sure who enjoyed the stay more, Katie or my dog! Very friendly, responsive, and sent photo updates which are very appreciated. Would definitely stay again!”
“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!”
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: Hi! I'm an artist working from home who loves spending time with pets and has a little black cat at home. I often pet sit for friends, from short visits to boarding for several days, so I’m very comfortable with daily routines like walks, feeding, playtime, and just keeping pets company so they feel safe and happy. I also tend to take way too many photos, so you can expect lots of photo updates while I'm with your pet! I work from home doing freelance work, so my schedule is pretty flexible and I’m able to plan my day around pet care, whether that’s walks, drop-ins, or staying with them for longer periods. I’m available for boarding, house sitting, and walks, and I like keeping a consistent routine so pets feel comfortable and not rushed. I live in an apartment right next to Washington Square Park and Coit Tower, so it’s really easy to get dogs out for nice long walks and some additional short walks to get some fresh air! I also have a 3-year-old cat who’s used to being around dogs. I keep my place clean and calm, and I pay attention to how each pet is feeling so they’re comfortable. I’m also happy to follow any routines or instructions so things feel familiar for them.
About: I just moved here from Boulder, Colorado. I have a flexible schedule and can check in on your animal throughout the day. I have experience with cats and dogs - and have 2 cats myself! I just moved to the city and my partner and I have flexible work from home hour. We would love to watch your furry friends while you’re away. I treat all animals that I watch as if they are my own. Their safety and happiness are my top priorities when watching your pets.
“Kara and Val were a godsend when we needed a last minute sitter for our pup. Kara was prompt and responsive in setting up a meet & greet where she got to talk with us and get to know Petunia a little bit. We were nervous as it was our first time leaving her, but she warmed up to Kara, Val and their adorable daughter Mae quite quickly! Kara was great about sending updates and photos and made us feel secure, at ease and able to enjoy our time away. Cannot recommend them enough 🐶😁”
“Abdel is amazing! I always worry leaving my senior dog and this was an especially long trip, but I know he was very well cared for at all times in Abdel’s care. He seemed happy and comfortable in all the pictures and on pickup.”
“Jillian and Fam were great! They boarded and cared for Cali for a week and we got regular updates and pics on how she was doing and all the walks they were taking. Jillian is super professional and incredibly responsive. Would recommend!”
“Wonderful experience w/Jocelyn. Great communication, punctual and our dog seemed to love her. Got nice updates throughout trip. Will call on her again without hesitation.”
“Fantastic experience, great communication, and very convenient to work with. Nero was immediately comfortable with her which is unusual, so definitely a huge plus. Overall, definitely will want to work with Kimberly again!”
“Vanessa took excellent care of Biscuit. She was very communicative and he developed a solid bond with her and Kenzo in the short time that they were together. Highly recommend and would have no hesitation rebooking with Vanessa.”
“Our first time using Kazu & Yoko & were very pleased! We moved from the suburbs to the city with our 10 year old lab & concerned to leave with strangers. Yoko & Kazu’s accommodations were perfect for Our lab who is use to free range of the house with access to yard. They were sensitive to his needs as an old dog but included him on amazing walks/activities & shared amazing photos while we were away. I think our lab will be happy to return!”
“Go was great with my Shiba Inu and took great care of him. Momo got to go to the park every single day!! Received plenty of love from him and he seemed very happy from all the pictures I was sent. Highly recommend!!”
