“We cannot recommend Lori and Frank more highly. This was Daisy’s very first time with a pet sitter, and as a rescue pup she can be a bit nervous in new situations. From the moment we met them, Lori and Frank immediately made her feel comfortable—not just with them, but also with their wonderful adult children. They took exceptional care of Daisy and truly made her part of their family. Thanks to their calm, loving environment, Daisy even gained the confidence to make a new doggy friend with another pet guest during her stay, which meant so much to us. We loved receiving regular updates and photos, and it was clear every step of the way that Daisy was happy, relaxed, and well cared for. Leaving your dog for the first time is never easy, but Lori and Frank made the entire experience completely stress-free. We are so grateful for the love and attention they gave Daisy and would trust them again without hesitation.”
“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!”
“Sara was just wonderful with our little Chihuahua mix Toaster. She provided lots of pictures and updates, took him on many walks, and appreciated his affectionate Velcro-dog tendencies. I look forward to booking her again in the near future!”
“Thank you so much, Sylvie!! I can tell that Bobbi had an amazing time staying with you and your family and the other boarding dogs. I’m so grateful she had the opportunity to properly socialize with other older dogs as she is still a puppy. The endless pictures you sent were such a relief to see. I was always so happy to get them while on my trip—she clearly loved sniffing around your garden. And thank you for sticking to my notes and instructions, as she is still a puppy and I wanted to keep certain things going like crate training while I was away. I’d love to rebook with you in the future. Thanks again for your attention to detail and care for Bobbi :)”
“This was our first experience with Kevin and Rosa and we were nervous about our newly adopted puppy who had separation anxiety. It turns out that she had a wonderful time with Kevin and Rosa, who showered her with individual attention and she bonded with their big friendly other dog. Kevin and Rosa were responsible, kept in close touch, and we hope to work with them again.”
“Faviano provided the best dog sitting environment ever. He sent great photos, regular updates, and was flexible and responsive. He obviously loves dogs.”
“Lillie was wonderful, and I would highly recommend her! It was our first time leaving Bear with her- she sent lots of photos and videos which gave us peace of mind. Bear has issues with anxiety but came home a very happy boy! Thank you Lillie!”
“Derek & Solip take care of my senior dog like she’s their own! It means so much to have peace of mind and know she’s in good hands when I’m out of town. Will definitely book with them again!”
“We were very happy with the care our dog received. Mila was communicative, attentive to our instructions, and clearly took great care of our dog while we were away. It gave us real peace of mind knowing everything was being handled so well. We’re grateful to have found someone we can trust and would gladly book with her again.”
“As a Rover myself, I'm discerning in choosing caregivers for my service animal, Angel. Samantha recently looked after Angel for the second time, and her care was outstanding. Her understanding and respect for the unique needs of Angel truly set her apart. Her genuine affection for animals is clear, and it's evident that Angel adores her. I highly recommend Samantha for any pet care needs due to her sense of responsibility and compassion. We definitely plan to use her services again!”
“Absolutely wonderful - she was careful to make sure the personalities of the other dogs would work in her home. I got updates every day, and Tonka was clearly happy and engaged (and LOVED being able to play with other well-mannered dogs). Sony also had a magical touch - T instantly responded to her calming presence. At our meet-up, Tonka was patiently sitting in front of her, right away, waiting to see what the plan was. Just the sweetest acceptance - which speaks to how dedicated and lovely Sony is! Good vibes, carefulness, easy happiness. I feel SO lucky to have found her here!”
“Molly and Stephen are the best! They sent me plenty of pictures. I was able to travel stress free knowing Duke was being cared for well. They were also super accommodating when my flight was delayed a few hours. Would highly recommend!”
“Renee and Christopher are so loving to our senior dog Jeffrey and they care for him like their own. They keep us informed of Jeffrey’s day. Jeffrey is always content and that makes me happy. When Jeffrey stays with Renee and Christopher I can get away knowing he is in good hands.”
“Pascal absolutely loved his stay and came home worn out from playing and snuggling! We got lots of updates and felt good knowing Pascal was in absolutely fantastic hands! 10/10 would recommend!!!”
“Our go to sitter and honestly one of our dog’s favorite person! She provides amazing care that makes your dog feel comfortable and keeps you in the loop with their everyday adventures. Highly recommended to anyone needing a sitter.”
“Ellen was an amazing caretaker for our dog. She made sure he was comfortable with her 2 dogs before we committed to a few nights of him staying at her home. She sent daily updates and pictures, which I always appreciate. She and her partner were the best company for our dog! Will call them again.”
“I was very happy with my experience with Jenna (& Ryan). From the very beginning, I felt that Jenna was on top of everything. She had great communication and made me feel like Sady was in great hands. I would definitely book again!”
“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.”
“1000000/10 I’ve never felt more confident and comfortable leaving my guy with someone! He had a few accidents and they were completely professional in the way they handled it. Could not recommend more”

About: I've been caring for dogs for as long as I can remember and love spending time with animals. I have worked at the humane society taking care of a variety of pets and find a lot of joy in doing so. Growing up, I regularly walked and cared for my own dog throughout San Francisco and later in Larkspur. Over the years, neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me to walk their dogs, provide pet sitting, and make sure their pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while they're away. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and needs, and I always strive to give them the attention, exercise, and affection they deserve. Whether your pet needs a long walk, playtime, or a reliable sitter, I'll be able to do it! 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.
“Shannon was wonderful. The boys loved her. I was worried about leaving them for days, as I never had, but once we met Shannon, those fears evaporated. She came for a couple short visits prior to my trip. They took to her immediately, and while I was away she sent videos and pics multiple times per day. Really couldn't be happier!”
About: Hi! I’m a dedicated animal lover with two cats of my own, and I absolutely adore caring for pets of all kinds. Whether you have energetic dogs that need daily walks and playtime, independent kitties who want some extra snuggles, or any other furry (or scaly!) friends, I’m experienced and confident giving them the attentive, affectionate care they deserve. While you’re away, I’ll keep your pets happy and comfortable in their familiar environment, stick to their normal routines, provide plenty of love and exercise, and make sure your home stays safe and tidy. You can relax knowing your beloved companions are in trustworthy, caring hands! I work from home with a flexible schedule, so I’m highly available for drop-ins, overnight stays, and house sitting whenever you need me. Your pets will always receive prompt and attentive care! I prioritize your pets’ safety and well-being above all else. In your home, I follow your exact instructions and routines to the letter — from feeding schedules and medication to favorite toys and walk routes. I’m a responsible, non-smoker with a clean background, and I treat your space with the same care as my own.
About: I’ve worked with many different animals, including cats, dogs, birds, hamsters. I love working and caring for them. Patience is needed to make your furry friends feel comfortable. I’ve worked with many large dog breeds, which include malamutes, German shepherds, pitbulls and even Akita’s. I’m currently work during the day so I am free most evenings Sunday through Thursday. I have more availability on Fridays and Saturdays during the day. I make sure the pets are in safe areas for them so that they don’t get into anything that isn’t safe. I make sure to give them space but follow them just in case. I want them feel comfortable in their space.
About: Cat Care I absolutely love cats! I grew up with three cats and had my kitty best friend, Lola, until she passed away last year; she was 17 years old! I miss her every day, and caring for cats is very special to me. I understand that every cat has their own personality, boundaries, and routine, and I’m happy to give them as much attention (or space) as they need.
“Caroline did a great job checking in with my kitty! When I leave my cat alone she gets stressed out and lets me know when I get back by acting out. Caroline was able to reduce her stress when I had to leave (in the middle of moving in) and my kitty was happy and well behaved when I got back. I loved all of the photos she sent each check-in and knowing she was being cared for. Will be booking with her again!”
“Meghan did a fantastic job with our pets - couldn’t be happier with her prompt amd professional communication and responsiveness. She watched our dog and cat and did walks everyday etc. thanks!”
About: I am experienced in caring for dogs of all ages (I am always the go-to friend to dogs and housesit). Our family has an 8-year-old doodle named Stela, so I understand the importance of proper care and daily walks. Additionally, I have a good intuition regarding dogs and can sense if something is wrong or if we should cross the street because the owner doesn't want their dog to meet another one. As a responsible pet owner, I prioritize daily care and exercise. I ensure fresh water is available throughout the day and take regular breaks for bathroom walks. Weekly routines include walks, playing and thorough cleaning of their living spaces. I also schedule regular veterinary check-ups and maintain a consistent schedule for preventative medications. Hi there! Just wanted to let you know that I take a proactive approach when it comes to communicating with clients. As soon as I arrive at the house, I send a quick text message to let them know I'm there. Throughout the day, I also provide one or two status updates to keep them in the loop and reassured that everything is going well with their pet. And of course, I always make sure to leave the home clean and tidy. Thanks for choosing me as your pet sitter!
About: I’ve grew up in a household around many animals! Began caring for pets when I was 4. I have owned and sat many different types of cats and dogs! I truly love caring for them! I care for pets in my free time! I usually can go attend to the pets first thing in the morning, then do some work, take the dogs for walks in afternoon, work some more then feed and give more potty breaks, then work and do one more break before bed. I put the care and focus on the dog/cat, your pet and I will enjoy playing, snuggling sometimes, petting, and a little treat. I will give them a relaxing time with nothing to worry about till you get back!
“They are absolutely outstanding sitters! From very first message, their communication was warm and professional. During the stay, I received regular updates with adorable photos and detailed notes about how things were going. It was clear that Mariia and Ethan genuinely cared for Mia pup as if they were their own! Thank you for going above and beyond, you are the best!”
About: Hello there! I am a loving pet caregiver and house nurturer living in Marin.

I look forward to the opportunity to take care of your special fur-family member and home. Warmly, Adrienne I currently work at Good Earth in the Wellness Department and have early mornings, lunch (1pm) and evenings (after 5:30pm) open for feeding, walks and checkins!

About: I have 20 years experience with bully breeds, and all the health issues that entails, but I’m open to sitting any breed (they are all good dogs!). I live at the beach, so your pup will get long beach walks and/or mountain trail hikes during the day, then sleepy downtime at night. It’s a pet paradise! Update 2/26: I just adopted a mastiff, so I’m not doing any in home boarding until I get her settled in her new home, but I’m still happy to do drop ins or walks for other dogs.

“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”
“It was great to see my dog eagerly jump out of car and run to greet Adriana! Their fenced yard was perfect, and they are very caring day care providers. I highly recommend Adriana and Derek.”
“Megan was SO GREAT!! I booked very last minute and had an unpredictable schedule. She was flexible and communicative. Best of all, she and her family gave our pup so much love and sent us updates. I felt confident leaving Lui in Megan’s care. Thanks so much Megan & fam!!”
“My dog had a fantastic time. Great first impression too, my dog came running up and instantly knew she liked Kathryn. We also got updates and pictures throughout the stay. Definitely recommend!”
“Marisa & her lovely family are so kind to Romeo. What a perfect spot with a sweet yard. He strolled up to their house on day 2 with a wagging tail & made himself at home. Happy to have Marisa in the neughborhood!”
“Emily was so accommodating! I had a last minute cancellation in my daily walker and I reached out to her the evening before to see if she could watch my baby and she worked with my schedule! I will absolutely be contacting her every time I need day care or boarding in the future. Thanks so much Emily!”
About: Sri Sharie is a long time animal lover, enthusiastic about the beauty that our animals share with us. I do some training, and I am an animal communicator 🙂🧚 I also delight in sharing timeless wisdom, natural remedies, and endless enthusiasm for all the animals... All creatures great and small. Holistic Health Professional for over 35 years, a Magical Genius in the Gene Keys system - my conscientious care and versatile tool kit are on offer throughout the Bay Area I am semi-retired from my professional practice as teacher of healing arts, and individual and couples therapist. I have a lot of experience with service animals. I love to connect the dots in terms of the stresses that we are experiencing in our own bodies and then how our animals respond, and sometimes they carry our burdens. I love to support clearing and balancing for everybody's health! Since my journey in the last decade, which I call my radical sabbatical, I am ever grateful to be connecting differently with people rather than simply as a therapist. We are all in this together, and love abounds! I grew up with dogs, and more dogs. We had German shepherds and a Mastiff when I was very young, later my mother raised Border Collies, and my sister raised Jack Russells. I do love to help train dogs when they need it, it is ever so important, and help the owners get in the best groove with their relationship to their precious companions... My mother also had a Maine Coon cat and a small dog that were best friends and I have to say this is my favorite thing ever... In the '70s I hitchhiked across the country with a kitten tucked in my parka...
“Matt has been so wonderful with our miniature dachshund Winston! He’s having some separation anxiety and finding Matt has been a god send! Winston comes home totally happy and is clearly getting lots of love while they hang! Matt is easy to communicate with and responds quickly. Can’t recommend him enough!”
“Dennis was extremely flexible with a list minute day sitting appointment. Our dog is timid and fairly shy so Dennis was very conscientious about introducing her to the pack slowly. When I picked her up, it was clear she had become fond of Dennis. And when we got home, she passed right out. Thanks so much for taking care of Piki!”
“Teddy had an awesome time with Sunny and Caroline! And Caroline was wonderful about being flexible with his pick-up time. We will definitely be booking again.”
“Scott took wonderful care of Fred! Even though Fred was a little nervous and didn’t sleep much, Scott kept him busy with lots of walks and play time. He also shared many photos which is always a treat! We are glad we found Scott and will definitely book him again!”
“Lori and Frank were incredibly warm to me and my dog! They welcomed him with open arms and gave him so much love - I was able to happily be without him knowing he was in great hands with Lori and Frank. They loved his idiosyncrasies and did everything they could to make my dog comfy - he can’t wait to go back and I will definitely use Lori and Frank regularly!”
“Sylvie’s family took care of our pup for the day and we (the parents) were able to enjoy our day without any worries. Sylvie and her husband are very professional, thoughtful and will treat your pups with great care. We highly recommend their service.”
“Our 4 month old puppy had a great time doing a day sit with Ellen! She is usually shy but took to Ellen immediately, and Ellen was helpful and communicative throughout the whole process.”

“Had Gage everyday this week, as our puppy was neutered and couldn't do his regular off-leash hikes. Gage was on time every day, and our puppy Murphy was very excited to see him each day! I wouldn't hesitate to book Gage again, and was grateful that he was able to accommodate a fairly last minute request for a week of 8am walks!”
“Our pups love Amber! She walks them twice a week and they get sooo excited when she’s here. She’s consistent and super easy to communicate with. We’re very lucky to have found her ☺️”
“Mari is AWESOME!!! Mari is the first dog walker I ever used. My dog is very needy and has his ways and routines. Mari adapted to his needs immediately. She is gentle. She loves to talk to my dog. (He understood everything she said.) She is conscious and in-tune with him. Mari put me at ease. (I’m a little overprotective of my pup.) I will use her again and again. I feel he’s safe with Mari and it gives me a feeling of relief. Thank you!”
“Anjali was wonderful with our senior Lab, Bella. She took her on lovely walks and sent us a bunch of really fun photographs. It was great to be able to relax and know that Bella was well taken care of. We feel lucky to have found Anjali in our new city!”

I also know when a cat does or does not need attention and will work with them to provide the most stress-free environment.
About: I’ve grown up around animals my entire life, including Bernese mountain dogs and cats, so I’m very comfortable caring for pets of all sizes and personalities. I’m 26, live in Mill Valley, and work as the general manager of two restaurants in San Francisco. Although my schedule can vary, I’m generally available in the mornings, on weekends, and for overnight care. I truly love spending time with animals, whether that means going for a walk, playing fetch at the park, or simply relaxing and giving them plenty of attention and affection. Since I’m not able to have a pet of my own right now, caring for other people’s dogs and cats is especially meaningful to me! I currently work as a restaurant general manager, so my mornings are usually open before I head to work in the afternoon around 1-3. I typically finish around 9–10 p.m. and am available for early-morning visits, overnight stays, and weekends. My schedule can vary slightly, but I’m happy to communicate clearly and coordinate a routine that works best for you and your pet. I’m unable to host animals in my home, but I’m available for pet sitting in a client’s home. I understand that every animal has their own personality, routine, and specific needs, so I always take the time to learn what makes them feel most comfortable. My priority is making sure your pet feels safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. I’ve grown up with cats and dogs, so I’m comfortable around animals of different sizes and personalities. I’m dependable, respectful of your home, and happy to provide regular photos and updates.

About: Hi! I'm Ashley , a dedicated and passionate dog lover with over 5 years of experience in caring for and training dogs. Growing up, I was surrounded by big dogs, which sparked my love for working with them. I have had the joy of raising two wonderful dogs—a black lab and a golden retriever who taught me the value of patience, consistency, and love in dog care. I am currently a college student working a part time job. I am on summer vacation so my schedule is pretty open. I am available nights and mostly all week. I am able to work around my job schedule. I don’t have a fenced off yard but I live across an open grass field. I also live very close to a couple of parks. My home is pet friendly and doesn’t have anything that will cause harm to any dogs.

“Thank you so much, Sylvie!! I can tell that Bobbi had an amazing time staying with you and your family and the other boarding dogs. I’m so grateful she had the opportunity to properly socialize with other older dogs as she is still a puppy. The endless pictures you sent were such a relief to see. I was always so happy to get them while on my trip—she clearly loved sniffing around your garden. And thank you for sticking to my notes and instructions, as she is still a puppy and I wanted to keep certain things going like crate training while I was away. I’d love to rebook with you in the future. Thanks again for your attention to detail and care for Bobbi :)”
“This was our first experience with Kevin and Rosa and we were nervous about our newly adopted puppy who had separation anxiety. It turns out that she had a wonderful time with Kevin and Rosa, who showered her with individual attention and she bonded with their big friendly other dog. Kevin and Rosa were responsible, kept in close touch, and we hope to work with them again.”
“Lillie was wonderful, and I would highly recommend her! It was our first time leaving Bear with her- she sent lots of photos and videos which gave us peace of mind. Bear has issues with anxiety but came home a very happy boy! Thank you Lillie!”
“We were very happy with the care our dog received. Mila was communicative, attentive to our instructions, and clearly took great care of our dog while we were away. It gave us real peace of mind knowing everything was being handled so well. We’re grateful to have found someone we can trust and would gladly book with her again.”
“As a Rover myself, I'm discerning in choosing caregivers for my service animal, Angel. Samantha recently looked after Angel for the second time, and her care was outstanding. Her understanding and respect for the unique needs of Angel truly set her apart. Her genuine affection for animals is clear, and it's evident that Angel adores her. I highly recommend Samantha for any pet care needs due to her sense of responsibility and compassion. We definitely plan to use her services again!”
“Absolutely wonderful - she was careful to make sure the personalities of the other dogs would work in her home. I got updates every day, and Tonka was clearly happy and engaged (and LOVED being able to play with other well-mannered dogs). Sony also had a magical touch - T instantly responded to her calming presence. At our meet-up, Tonka was patiently sitting in front of her, right away, waiting to see what the plan was. Just the sweetest acceptance - which speaks to how dedicated and lovely Sony is! Good vibes, carefulness, easy happiness. I feel SO lucky to have found her here!”
“Molly and Stephen are the best! They sent me plenty of pictures. I was able to travel stress free knowing Duke was being cared for well. They were also super accommodating when my flight was delayed a few hours. Would highly recommend!”
“Our go to sitter and honestly one of our dog’s favorite person! She provides amazing care that makes your dog feel comfortable and keeps you in the loop with their everyday adventures. Highly recommended to anyone needing a sitter.”
“Ellen was an amazing caretaker for our dog. She made sure he was comfortable with her 2 dogs before we committed to a few nights of him staying at her home. She sent daily updates and pictures, which I always appreciate. She and her partner were the best company for our dog! Will call them again.”
“1000000/10 I’ve never felt more confident and comfortable leaving my guy with someone! He had a few accidents and they were completely professional in the way they handled it. Could not recommend more”
“Matt and Amanda were absolutely wonderful with my dog! They were kind, attentive and kept me updated with messages and photos throughout the stay. My dog came home happy and relaxed - I could tell that she was really well cared for. I'd definitely book with them again and highly recommend to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving sitter!”
“Megan was fantastic! She took such great care of our poodle, Messi, and kept us updated every day with photos and messages, which gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. Messi also loved spending time with Megan’s daughter and quickly became friends with her sweet pups. It was clear he was happy and well cared for the entire time. Thank you, Megan! We’ll definitely be booking with you again and highly recommend you to anyone looking for a wonderful dog sitter.”
“Ross took such great care of Joey! He clearly is such a dog person who could intuitively figure out all of Joey’s quirks. Joey had a great stay and is probably already looking forward to his next stay with Ross!”
“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!”
“Ellen is very skilled at what she does. I think she’s the Dog Whisperer of Marin. My small dog Gracie never gets along with other dogs, but was somehow able to under Ellen’s watch. I highly recommend Ellen!”
“Elena and Holly were excellent sitters for my chihuahua mix Toaster. They were very communicative, responsible and Toaster was happy and healthy when I returned from my trip. I will definitely use them again!”
“We had a wonderful experience with this sitter! They were attentive, responsible, and truly cared about our dog as if he were their own. Communication was great throughout the stay, with regular updates and photos that gave us peace of mind. Our dog came home happy, relaxed, and well taken care of. We really appreciated the thoughtfulness, patience, and genuine love they showed. We wouldn’t hesitate to book again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter.”
