“I honestly could not recommend Taylor more. He was brilliant with our puppy. She had a brilliant time with him. We were away for 2 weeks and Taylor sent pictures daily which put us at ease. Our flights got last minute changes and he was so accommodating around drop off and collection. Definitely going to book Taylor again.”
“Lori was wonderful - responsive, easy communication throughout the booking process and stay. She has extensive experience taking care of dogs and having Hank there as a doggy companion was a great bonus. She also sent us a bunch of photos of Ollie, which we really appreciated. Would definitely book with her again!”
“We had a great experience with Alex. She's professional and easy to communicate with, and most importantly she took very good care of our dog for over two weeks. We got regular updates with photos, and it was especially nice to see how well our dog got along with hers.”
“Sara was extremely communicative from the beginning. We felt heard and understood and immediately wanted to book her for her experience with foster and rescue dogs. She has a calming personality and we felt confident that she can handle our doggo, who has moderate separation anxiety. She sent us daily updates, sometimes hilarious, that kept us feeling good about our decision to have her watch over our dog for two weeks. Our dog's quirks and behaviors didn't seem to bother her even as much as we pressed for more details and "are you sure?!" texts. We are extremely grateful for the positive reassurance she gave us (it made our travel plans less stressful) and would absolutely book her again!”
“Derek and solip were amazing! They helped me when I was in a bind visiting SF and a previously booked sitter canceled. Bruno had lots of fun with their dog and I loved getting updates. Hope to meet them again when Bruno and I visit the west coast!”
“Sofia was great! I ended up having to pick up my dog about 6 hours later than originally planned and she was so wonderful about it. She's a great option to leave your pet with and I don't know that I'll ever use boarders again if Sofia is available! And my little dog came back super happy!”
“This was my first time leaving my pup with Brandon and I’m so glad I did. He came very highly recommended and I felt completely confident and comfortable knowing Brandon is so good at what he does and I definitely appreciate the frequent pics/updates. Thank you Brandon for taking care of my baby! ??”
“My pup had a great overnight stay at Julie's! Pick up and drop off was very smooth and she was a great communicator/quick responses. Will definitely be booking again!”
“Anne was so great with Remy and I would definitely use her again! She sent lots of photos and an update on how Remy’s day was which gave me peace of mind on my trip. Anne was super flexible and accommodating with timing of pickup and drop off as well. Overall, highly recommend!”
“Jesse was really easy to contact and stay in contact with. Our dog wasn’t the easiest guest (a bit nervous and anxious ) but Jesse seemed sensitive to that which made it at least easier for me!”
“Alexandra was great to work with. Easy to communicate with and our dogs seemed really happy with her both at drop-off and pick-up. Overall this was a great experience!”
“Tatiana was very helpful she took notice to things and quickly asked about them and even made adaptations to try and best support my little guy. Prince quickly went with her there was no hesitation.”
“Gabrielle and Patty take wonderful care of our beloved dog. I get pictures of snuggles, adventures, and playtime, and my dog comes home happy as a clam. I’m so grateful for them and will ask for their help again!”
“Lei took excellent care of Archie and sent plenty of photos and updates during his stay so we could see how he was doing. Would definitely recommend and have Archie stay again.”
“Yang was great! We were worried about leaving our puppy because our he is only 4.5 months old. But she sent daily photos and always responded quickly to our questions. She even came by to deliver something that we had left when we picked him up, and when Wilbur saw her again he was so excited! He came home happy and tired. I definitely recommend Yang and will use her as a sitter for our puppy again in the future!”
“Bee was amazing!! We booked a last minute weekend trip to Napa and couldn’t bring Baci our dachshund. Bee not only took care of him but also took him for walks, send pics and videos, to play with her own dog and even gave him a bath! We really appreciate all you did Bee and thank you! Highly recommend!”
“Our pup, Hank, has literally been growing up visiting with Sam & Venkat. We were happy to receive updates that he was behaving well with them (and Snowy) as a young dog (vs. as an energetic puppy!). While it’s hard being away from our dog during trips we wish he was with us, it’s very assuring to know he is being so well-taken care of and having a grest time.”
“Ellen did a fantastic job watching our pup for the weekend. She sent updates and pictures throughout and was extremely responsive. Would absolutely recommend and trust Ellen!”
“Jaipreet was incredible with our puppy Cous Cous! He’s just over a year old with lots of energy , and we felt so at ease after meeting Jaipreet and seeing how wonderful she was with him. She updated us often with photos and videos that left us smiling all weekend long while we were away. We dealt with some crazy airport delays at SFO and she was so flexible and kind to us! I would 1000% recommend Jaipreet to anyone looking for a sitter who not only cares for your dog, but goes above and beyond to love your dog and make them feel at home in her presence! We can’t thank her enough and hope to have her watch our dog again soon!”

“Alacia is the best! Our cat Nova seems to have officially accepted her into the family. We couldn’t be luckier to have her stopping by to look after the little one. Thank you again for everything!”
“We couldn't be happier with Yuki's cat-sitting services! From the first meeting with Ruby/showing her the house, where she was incredibly thorough and attentive, to her responsiveness and care during her visit, Yuki exceeded our expectations. We felt confident and at ease knowing that Ruby was in such capable hands. We'd be delighted to have Yuki care for Ruby again in the future!”

“Tiffany did a perfect job at caring for our two kitties! She made our first time being away from them a positive experience by providing trustworthy care and frequent updates. We will absolutely rebook!”
“This is the second time Anjali has watched my two cats, and I couldn’t be happier! Even my shy cat, who usually hides from everyone, came out to spend time with her, which says a lot. She clearly cares about animals and takes the time to make them feel comfortable and loved. I always come home to happy cats and a tidy space, which I really appreciate. It gives me such peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands while I’m away. Highly recommend!”
“Robin was amazing as always with both of our kitties! She made sure to give us thorough updates for each drop-in which was very appreciated. Thank you Robin!”
“Jenna is amazing! She took the best care of my 2 cats for over a week and sent thorough video, picture and descriptive updates everyday and was very responsive to any questions I had. My cats were so happy to play and snuggle with Jenna. Would definitely have Jenna watch my cats again!”
“Kate came by to feed and care for my senior cat twice a day during the busy holiday stretch. I was so grateful to know my cat was in good hands and came home to find her healthy and happy. Kate was communicative and kind, and seemed to really care about my cat. I would love to book Kate again in the future!”
“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!”
“Genna was amazing! She took great care of my cat Nutella. She brushed her, played with her, fed her and gave her lots of love. She offered to meet before and noted down everything on Nutella routine. Also a bird got into the apartment and Nutella killed it, and Genna took care of everything, even vacuumed. Genna was amazing, I highly recommend her”
“Amina took care of my senior cat Taylor for a long weekend and I definitely recommend her to look after your pets. She was kind enough to meet before the stay and Taylor was comfortable with her presence and was out and about the whole weekend. Amina took daily photos and kept my apartment clean for my arrival. Book her if you need someone to look after your apartment and beloved pets!”
“Nicoletta was awesome! She was caring, knowledgeable, and flexible with her time! She took wonderful care of my two cats and made sure they were healthy and happy. She even was patient with my worries about being away and sent great pictures to assure me that all was well. I will definitely choose Nicoletta again to kitty sit for me again in the future… just hope she’s not all booked up due to such awesomeness!!”
“I had Emily catsit my two cats last weekend and the experience was wonderful. I was nervous about leaving my young kitten especially, but Emily made sure to send me many videos, pictures and updates, which were all very reassuring. Thank you Emily for taking such good care of my kitties - would not hesitate to book again!”
“Natalie was amazing, as always! I came home to a kitty who was calm, happy, and full. She’s communicative and such a great, respectful house sitter. I’ll definitely be requesting to book her again in the future! :)”

“I booked Shanice on very short notice so there was no chance for a meet and greet with my puppy Nico. I took a chance on her based her previous reviews. Nico was at her doggy daycare for 2 days. She is super sweet and friendly. Most of all she adored my puppy. He had a good time with her and her fur baby. She sent me updates on Nico with pictures of his day. Nico was happy when he was dropped off and happy when I picked him up. That is always a good sign. I will definitely book Shanice again!”
“Anthony was one of the best dogsitters I’ve connected with through Rover. He has been super clear with communication, very flexible/accommodating of Fluffy’s needs and my schedule, and most importantly, took super good care of Fluffy. She’s a high maintenance dog that barks a lot, but I could tell immediately that Anthony is very confident in taking care of all kinds of dogs in all situations.”
“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!”
“My Golden, Ellie had the best day hanging with Shelby, Travis and Teddy! They were so sweet to give her so much love and attention! And I loved all the updates and pics. Can’t wait for Ellie to see them again soon!”
“Eleanor was super communicative and took the best care of Lani! She also took Lani in for day care super last minute and was flexible with timing, which I really appreciated. 10/10 recommend!”
About: I'm a communications professional for 30 years now, so it comes natural for me to share with pet owners every milestone of any day they're apart from their pets and trusting me with their care. For 20 years, I've cared for my friend's dogs, cats, and chickens in the Bay Area just for the fun of it. Now I'd like to open my experience and hope it will lead to more travel when I retire in a few year. Also, I have a veterinarian friend on speed dial. I've never had to call in an emergency. But I could! I work from home most days. I write, so I sit at my desk and I don't move much. I love having a cat on the desk or a well-exercised dog in their bed waiting for my next move. I go downtown twice a week, but I have a retired neighbor who volunteers at Animal Control and the SF Zoo who is nuts about dog-walking to fill-in for noontime walks. I like to treat all pets like they're my own, with a little extra in an auntie kind of way. I am an expert Kong-stuffer and a tug of war extremist, with a nice car that I don't mind getting hairy or muddy. Poo and litter are not things I shy away from. I love the smell of pet feet.
“Jesse was awesome with my pup, Ruby. I can't say enough good things about Jesse. From the initial meet-and-greet, Jesse was a perfect fit. He was kind and attentive, and my dog warmed up to him immediately. Jesse followed all my care instructions and gave Ruby plenty of exercise and playtime. When I returned, my dog was happy and healthy, and it was clear Ruby had formed a strong bond with Jesse and I would absolutely trust Jesse to care for my pup again in the future and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable, loving dog sitter.”
“Derek is great. Gave me updates and the dogs love him. Derek and Stella took them for walks along the Marina green and the dogs loved it:) highly recommend them:)”
“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!”
“Mikele did a great job with my senior dog Sandy. She was kind, communicative, and took lots of pictures. This was my dog’s first time doing doggy daycare. Mikele provided wonderful care and answered all of my questions.”
“Love Jei! This was my first time leaving Komi in someone elses’ care so I was really worried. She was very thorough writing his report card and took a bunch of photos. She even took Komi to the Golden Gate park which was such a treat. Komi is a happy and tired puppy hehe. I will be sleeping good tonight.”

“Carter was great with my dog Nellie! She’s a senior dog with varying levels of energy depending on the day. I really appreciated that Carter took the time to do a meet and greet with us beforehand, he asked questions and listened and I felt really good about the walk we booked. When he came for the walk, he followed all my instructions and adapted to Nellie‘s needs for that day, making sure to have a little play time with her as well. He followed up with a thorough update. And I’ve already booked him for another walk!”
“Yang is great! I've booked her a few times, and she has taken care of both my dog and cat. She is always on time, prompt on responding, and reliable. Additionally, she has been flexible and able to help me out in a pinch when I've needed to book last minute. We love Yang and (have already) recommend her to anyone who is looking to book a reliable/trustworthy pet sitter.”

“Megan was very, kind, considerate and attentive with walking our dog Prescott! She’s was very thorough with his needs- as he recently injured his paw after swimming & hiking for a few days. She took it slow with him. Megan is also very organized in that she clarified walking times with me so I had the correct dates in for his walk. Appreciate you helping us out, would book with her again. Thanks a bunch Megan!”
About: *great references available upon request. Please feel free to reach out with any questions.* Hi there! I have been in the animal care business my whole life. Growing up on a ranch taught me a lot about horses, dogs, cats and the outdoors. I am very knowledgeable in terms of animal health and behavior. I have been entrusted with many great animals in my lifetime, and it's so rewarding to get to know each individual pet and their families. Having raised my own German Shepherds, I was able to apply and learn what I needed to create a good all around dog. My personal dogs have given me and edge in how I communicate with each dog that comes into my care. I understand all dogs are different and I like taking things slow, and building trust and confidence in the long run. I take pride in providing the greatest care to each individual pet. I have references for house/pet sitting, dog walks, basic dog grooming, Kennel Management, Dog Breeding, ranch caretaking, barn manager, foreman, assistant to horse trainer, from/horse care/feed/lay up. I also have background in House Cleaning, in home caregiving and Personal Assistant roles. I am accustomed to taking care of my own personal pets daily. I check their food/water in am and pm. and usually lunch time. I take them out for constant bathroom breaks, play time, exercise. Double checking doors, locks. Safety First. Ensuring all and any gear are working well, (collar, leash, harness etc) I reach out to you periodically during visits / walks/ boarding/ sitting. I am available for any questions, comments, and concerns.

“Katherine was super attentive with Bamtol and did such a great job on his walks :) He can be a little stubborn at times and excited, and she was able to navigate really well. Highly highly recommend!”

“Sylvia and her family are all we hoped they would be. Attentive, reliable, caring, thoughtful, well-organized and responsive.

I could let go completely, knowing our put was in great hands AND having wonderful time. We will be back.”

“Oliver can be particular with new people but this seemed to go very well. We received check in and update pics of fun times at the dog park and on walks. Look forward to coming back for additional sitting needs.”
“Ashley and her partner were the most amazing people. They took care of our baby (dogo argentino) for 2 weeks in a row without a single issue. Our pet also got acquainted with them and gelled along. Ashley kept me posted daily on our pet, shared photos and status updates. Her repo sets were quick, she was easy to approach, diligent and in control of the situation. We recommend her and plan to come back to her in future.”
“Where do I begin? Yoko and Kazu are by far the best dog sitter’s I’ve had in the city. They are both clearly dog lovers. Every time we pick Moose up from their home, he is happy, calm and relaxed which lets me know he thoroughly enjoys his stay and is well card for. They are incredibly accommodating and beyond gracious hosts - always sending the most beautiful action shots/photos of Moose throughout the day. Do not ever hesitate to book your fur babies - the immaculate and genuine care you give dogs is beyond what we’d expect! We’ll definitely be booking with you again, if you’ll have us of course :)”
“As always, Sonia was fantastic with our pup, Kushi! She’s super communicative and sends regular photo updates (which is great when we’re missing our girl). Kushi is always so excited to board with her!”
“Although I contacted Lovell & Lucas J. at almost the last minute (I ran into scheduling problems with the sitter I had set up), I was able to meet Lucas for a meet and greet right away. We set up the dates and everything went super smoothly. Lucas has a dog of his own. He clearly loves dogs, making mine feel very comfortable from the start. I had to go away for a wedding. Lucas kept me informed with messages and photos the whole time he had my pooch. His dog and mine slept on the same bed/couch. She was the perfect hostess. Lucas has a lovely yard and house - very accommodating! This was our first time with Lovell and Lucas J. I know we'll be back!”
“Our pup had the absolute best (and quite long) stay with Ruthy and her pups. She sent tons of pics/videos and I will absolutely be requesting her services again, and would highly recommend to anyone.”
About: Shelby grew up with Labrador retrievers ever since she was 5 years old. She has experience with medication administration, ear cleaning, walking, and more. We have a 2.5 year old dachshund who we crate, potty, and leash trained. We are both dog lovers with some of our friends saying Shelby is “the most dog obsessed person I’ve ever met.” We will strive to make your dog feel as comfortable as possible while respecting any rules and boundaries you have in your own home. We absolutely love every kind of dog and would give your fur baby 5 star care ⭐️ We both work from home, so our schedules are very flexible. We take our dog out 3 times a day for potty breaks and several walks a day. We can really take your dog out whenever is needed, as one of us is always available. Our home is very, very dog proof. Our dog loves to eat everything so we’re very mindful of keeping things tidy. Especially with larger dogs, we put away our dogs smaller toys, so that there’s no possibility of them being ingested (there’s the labrador experience haha!) we will be around and loving your pet 24/7 while they’re in our care ❤️
“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!!”
“Go and Misa are the loveliest guardians! My dog, Georgia, had an amazing 9-day stay with them. How do I know? The daily picture updates! (The happy was all over her face.) They asked a lot of good follow-up questions based on the care instructions I provided, which I appreciated because Georgia is a senior gal with a lot of quirks (like dog reactivity). This was my first vacation in about a decade and knowing Georgia was in such good hands was a relief. Highly recommend.”
