“Sophie, with a lifetime of experience taking care of dogs, was wonderful with our yellow Lab. Her home has an ample backyard area and is quite welcoming to dogs. Her Boston Terrier plays very nicely with others. Our Lab got lots of love and attention from Sophie, including regular walks in the low-traffic neighborhood near Dominican U. It is abundantly clear that Sophie, an energetic college student trying to earn some money on Rover, could not be more motivated to take phenomenal care of your cherished companion. She did so with our 4 year-old Lab.”
“Emily was awesome with my slightly anxious rescue dog. Sent updates, very responsive, and flexible about drop off and pick up times. Much appreciate the care she gave my little doggo over the course of a weekend and always felt she was in safe hands.”
“Morgan and Svet were amazing! They took wonderful care of our dog and kept us updated with messages and photos. We could tell he was happy and well-loved while we were gone. Highly recommend!”
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.
“Thank you Bianca! Bianca took wonderful care of Kuma and we appreciate her excellent communication and flexibility. We would absolutely ask Bianca to dog sit again. Thank you!!”
“Mary and her husband Mark were such sweethearts and I felt so good having Enzo in their home. Mary was able to accommodate me on super short notice and was flexible with my drop off and pickup schedule. I got lots of pictures from their various walks and I would 100% use Mary again! Highly recommend!”
“We had a wonderful experience boarding Zoe with Wenxin and her partner. We’ve been dealing with some allergies and they helped us keep up with her probiotics and cleansing foam. Zoe was well exercised and came home fully relaxed. They also went above and beyond with dropping her off at our house since they were in the neighborhood that evening, as well as supplementing her food when I forgot a meals worth. Highly recommend especially if you want your dog treated like family!”
“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!”
“Ellen did a great job watching our standard poodle! She was great with communication around pick up and drop off as well as regular updates. Our poodle seemed content and well cared for when we picked him up.”
“Alex was fantastic! Super communicative and took amazing care of my dog Hubert while I was on vacation. She sent photo updates every day and was a breeze to coordinate with. I would use her again and would highly recommend her if you’re looking for dog boarding.”
“Our Luna girl stayed with Adam and Julie for over a week and this was herfirst stay with them. We did do a meet and greet a couple months before the actual stay so we had an idea if Luna liked Adam and Julie. Luna is normally a fairly reactive young puppy like adolescent with frequent barking and lungeing at people and dogs that distress her which can be many people and dogs. We went to their home for the meet and greet and Luna was fairly comfortable with Adam and Julie right off the bat. That was definitely a good sign. Two months later and Luna now 2 months older and more mellow has her stay with Adam and Julie. We picked Luna up after our trip and she was happy, playful, and reacted like she had a good stay. Julie and Adam gave us a full report and it seems everything went well. We got a daily picture of Luna sent via text which made us very happy to connect with her. Thanks to Adam and Julie for taking good care of our girl while we were on vacation.”
“I have been leaving my 4 month old puppy with Dennis and Scout for daycare while I'm at work. She just loves it there, and is so happy to go, and so tired when she comes home. Dennis is a kind, skilled dog handler, and Scout is the "Camp Counselor" of dogs. Just a great place for my Izzy:)”
“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.”
“Derek and Stella were great! They were very communicative, flexible when I ended up returning late from my vacation, and overall clearly wonderful to Levi. Recommend”
“Tatiana and Renat took such good care of Chewie!! I really appreciated all the updates and pictures and kind words about Chewie - it's so comforting to know your dog is so loved! Thank you so much! ❤️”
“Ashish was amazing ! Very Punctual, Consistent updates about your pet, and lots of pictures. I typically get very anxious leaving my pup somewhere while I’m out of town, but Ashish took the stress away. Definitely going to be a repeat customer!”

About: Hey, pup friend! I am so excited to meet and love on your pup. I am a UX/UI designer with a nonprofit and I work from home, so whether your dog needs a buddy for the weekend or a work day, I’ve got you covered. I have one sweet pup, Potato, a mini Australian labradoodle who never met a friend he didn't love - human or doggo or otherwise. If you're looking for a personalized boarding experience where your pet gets excellent care and comes back as happy-tired as after a full day at the dog park, I’m your gal. I love taking dogs on hikes near Mount Tam and to the beach when we're on our turf and I firmly believe in the importance of treats and scratchies. I live in an apartment by a dog-friendly beach so we’ll definitely be playing at the playa. I follow your rules so your pet has the same high caliber of care here as at their home. I offer flexible drop-off and pick-up times from 8 am to 8 pm. I take my pup on a daily walk and play with him pretty much constantly whenever he’s not snoozing. Please keep in mind, I only board pups over a year old and cannot board dogs who are not fully potty trained or who need to be taken out more frequently than every 3 hours to potty. I like to follow the rules you've established for your pets - if they aren't allowed on furniture, I’ll make sure that stays. If they are, they're welcome to snuggle on the couch with us. I work from home and take my dog to the beach daily as well as on frequent walks and hikes. We are pretty flexible around here! In my home, we follow your rules. Potato is used to snuggling on rye couch during movie night and on the bed overnight. We welcome snuggle buddies! I am home most of the day working so pets get LOTS of attention and love.
“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!”
“Halee was very welcoming and kind towards Teddy. He had a couple of long walks during his visit with her, which he loves to do. He was well-cared for and we appreciated her support”
“Jake and Sam took such kind and loving care of Ruckus on very short notice. This dad and daughter team made pick-up and drop-off easy, and our pup was so happy (and sleepy) from all the fun at the end of the day. Thank you both!”
“Ashley and Josh were amazing hosts for my pug Mookie. They were communicative, provided updates throughout a busy day, and I felt reassured knowing Mookie was in a comfortable and caring place. I appreciated their flexibility and understanding with my work schedule (and on a holiday too). Overall, I highly recommend, with my sincerest gratitude. 🙏”
“Kevin was amazing! Not only did he save me in a pinch…but he took great care of Dezi and even sent me pictures and videos! Dezi can’t wait to go back and play with Milo again!”
About: I have extensive experience babysitting for families with children of all ages, which has made me highly responsible, patient, attentive, and great at handling different personalities and routines. I also have reliable transportation and a valid driver’s license, making me flexible and dependable for walks, drop-ins, or last-minute needs.

“Adriana was amazing with my French bulldog, Kevin. It was clear right away that she genuinely loves dogs. She sent adorable updates and photos, and Kevin looked way too happy to be missing me. Frenchies come with big personalities, and Adriana handled Kevin like a pro. I really appreciated that she only takes on a couple dogs at a time, so each pup gets plenty of individual attention. I came home to a happy, relaxed, and very well loved dog. I would absolutely book Adriana again and highly recommend her. Kevin definitely got the doting on that he is used to at our home. Trust me, he would tell me if he didn’t. Thank you so much for taking good care of my little Kevi!”

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.

Pet care fits into my daily and weekly routine as my primary focus right now. I’m currently dedicating my time to building consistent availability for walks, drop-ins, and sitting, and I plan my schedule around each booking to ensure reliable, attentive care.

In a client’s home, I follow all provided instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medication routines, walk guidelines, and house rules to keep the pet’s routine as consistent as possible. I take time to understand each pet’s temperament, energy level, and needs so I can adjust my approach accordingly, whether that’s a calm drop-in visit, an active walk, or extended sitting care. During walks and potty breaks, I stay attentive to surroundings, use secure leashing at all times, and avoid risky interactions with unfamiliar animals. For drop-ins and sitting, I focus on companionship, play, feeding, and maintaining cleanliness, including litter boxes or accident cleanup as needed. My goal is always to provide calm, reliable care that keeps pets safe, comfortable, and stress-free while their owners are away.

He’s responsive and responsible. I look forward to working with Jackson more times..”
About: I’ve always loved dogs which is why I’ve worked with dogs professionally for over 6 years and have experience caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments.

I currently work 4–5 days a week with dogs professionally, but outside of my shifts I have flexibility for walks, drop-in visits, potty breaks, and house sitting. On my days off, as well as before or after work, I love spending extra time caring for pets and making sure they get the attention, exercise, and companionship they need. I’m especially interested in house sitting and caring for dogs in the comfort of their own home where they feel most relaxed and safe. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are always my top priorities. I have previous experience house and dog sitting, and I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, playtime, walks, potty breaks, and affection while their owners are away. Because of my professional experience working with large groups of dogs, I’m comfortable handling different breeds, temperaments, and energy levels. I always follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, and any specific care requests to help pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in their home environment.

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!”
“Ellen did a great job watching our standard poodle! She was great with communication around pick up and drop off as well as regular updates. Our poodle seemed content and well cared for when we picked him up.”
“Our Luna girl stayed with Adam and Julie for over a week and this was herfirst stay with them. We did do a meet and greet a couple months before the actual stay so we had an idea if Luna liked Adam and Julie. Luna is normally a fairly reactive young puppy like adolescent with frequent barking and lungeing at people and dogs that distress her which can be many people and dogs. We went to their home for the meet and greet and Luna was fairly comfortable with Adam and Julie right off the bat. That was definitely a good sign. Two months later and Luna now 2 months older and more mellow has her stay with Adam and Julie. We picked Luna up after our trip and she was happy, playful, and reacted like she had a good stay. Julie and Adam gave us a full report and it seems everything went well. We got a daily picture of Luna sent via text which made us very happy to connect with her. Thanks to Adam and Julie for taking good care of our girl while we were on vacation.”
“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.”
“Penelope seemed to have the best time with Emma & Jackson! we enjoyed it too, as they were great communicators and extremely accommodating to our changing plans. Not only did I trust in their abilities but truly felt they enjoyed having Penelope stay with them, as they went on a hike and enjoyed the weekend together! We will definitely be repeat customers :)”
“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!”
“Adriana took great care of Kona, was very flexible with our drop off and pick up times, and kept us updated regularly with photos and videos throughout the weekend! Kona came back in great shape! Would definitely book Adriana again”
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.
About: I’ve had dogs for most of my life. I grew up with 4 bigs dogs. Recently I’ve been doing walks on apps, I’ve done over 70+ services ranging from taking care of old pets to very young ones. People always set me as their preferred walker since they love that I listen to their rules and go on long walks with their dogs. For a 60 minute walk I average about 2-3 miles, depending on the dog. I’m currently a student at San Jose State University and I look forward to doing some walks or other services on the weekends when I’m back home, also I can do walks or sittings on the weekdays when I off school. I have a fenced yard, the dogs and cats are allowed in the house and my room. I will make sure to always keep a lookout and have them be where I am at.
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was little. I always walked my dog around San Francisco and around Larkspur when I moved. My neighbors constantly use me to walk their dogs or pet sit as well. I am currently working a 9-5 during the week. I would be available to walk dogs earlier in the morning or after 6. I am available full time on weekends. I have a fenced yard and one dog who is very kind with other dogs. I love taking care of pets and will love to walk/play with them.
“Mocha thoroughly enjoys spending time with Nathaniel and his family. They consistently demonstrate great kindness towards him, ensuring that he is well taken care of. We truly appreciate your unwavering care for him, and we eagerly anticipate our next meeting.”
“Lillie and her family were so kind and welcoming to my pup. She sent lots of pics while we were away and was very communicative around how he was doing. She seemed genuinely affectionate with him too so I know he was not short on receiving love. Super thankful for her care ❤️”
