“This was the first time we booked with Nina and Leo and we were very happy! Leo sent many photos of our pups each day of our trip, along with updates on how they were adjusting to their new surroundings and how they were eating. We were very pleased with the communication and felt our pets were in good hands and well-loved while we were out of town. I would definitely recommend and would book again. Thanks Nina and Leo!”
“Shannon was absolutely wonderful with Dobby. I was able to relax on my vacation knowing my dog was having a vacation of his own with Apollo. She gave frequent updates with plenty of photos and was very communicative during the stay. I couldn’t recommend her enough.”
About: Dogs have been a big part of our lives. We adopted Bruno, our beloved Labrador Retriever, with whom we spent 11 years until he fought bravely with cancer but could not win. Bruno socialized me to his friends like Mastiffs, German Shepherds, Corgis, Golden Retrievers and many more and helped me understand that each dog, irrespective of his breed, has a unique personality and temperament. Thus, please do tell us about your dogs unique traits and his phobias so that we can make him feel at home. This is important for us to know as dogs undergo huge stress to be away from their home. After Bruno passed away, we adopted Rex, Labrador Retriever, who has helped us heal and made us realize how important dogs are in our lives! Both, me and my wife WFH and have flexible working schedule. So one of us will be at home to take care of the pack. We have Rex, a Labrador Retreiver, who goes on walks 2x times a day for 2-3 miles everyday. If the dog is staying with us, based on his needs, he can join us on our walks. Plus, we have a fully fenced backyard for dogs to play and run freely. Often, we take break from our work and play with our dog in the backyard or go for a small 5-10 min walk outside our home. For everyone’s safety, the dog should get along with kids and other dogs. Please let us know if there are any health issues and/or food allergies. My wife and I have experience caring for senior dogs, and both of us are comfortable administering medications as needed.
“Siobhan and Guillermo took great care of Chutney - they shared some pics from her stay, and she came home tired which is always a good sign! We have already booked with them again and plan to use continuously in the future.”
“Katherine was incredibly attentive to our senior dog and made him feel at home! We are grateful for her many updates and great communication, and we know our dog would love to stay with her again!”
About: As a fellow dog parent, I know just how important it is to find someone who'll love your pup like their own. I've learned so much from having my Cavapoo over the past 5 years - including navigating separation anxiety and training challenges with help from the awesome folks at Cali K9 and Zoom Room. All these experiences have made me a patient, understanding caregiver who knows every dog is uniquely special. Your furry friend will have a blast joining us for adventures in our local parks and trails, where we keep tails wagging with plenty of fun and positive reinforcement. I've had the joy of caring for many pups with different personalities, and I always make sure each one feels safe, happy, and right at home with us. Let's give your dog the loving attention they deserve! I'm thrilled to share what a typical day would look like for your pup! I've marked my calendar to show the days I'm home and fully available to focus on caring for your dog. Since I work from home on these days, I'm here to give your furry friend lots of attention and care. We follow a fun routine that includes at least three energetic walks daily, plus plenty of playtime with our collection of toys to keep everyone happy and engaged! I do pop out briefly for my gym sessions, but I'll always keep you in the loop about my schedule. Your dog will never feel lonely - they'll be right by my side throughout the day, getting all the love and attention they deserve! I maintain a clean, pet-proofed apartment where your furry friend can relax without any worries. For bedtime, I have a dedicated crate in the study where my dog sleeps, and I have an extra crate available if your pup is crate-trained - though they're also welcome to find their comfy spot anywhere in the apartment! Safety is my top priority, so I take extra precautions like always keeping doors securely locked and making sure the apartment is tidy and free of anything that could be harmful. When we head out for walks in our quiet, safe neighborhood, your pup will always be properly leashed, and I even use special light-up collars for our evening strolls. You can rest easy knowing your dog is in a secure, peaceful environment with someone who takes their safety seriously
“I’m going on vacation in May so did an overnight test with Karla to see how the pups handled. Surprisingly I had separation anxiety but Karla was perfect. She sent me updates and photos. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience and I can go on vacation with peace of mind. Thank you Karla!!!”
“This was Yogi’s first time away from home, and Cynthia made sure he was well cared for. She sent us lots of updates (which we requested) and Yogi looked so happy the whole time. We weren’t sure how he’d do since we only adopted him a few months ago, but he seemed to have such a great time! Would book again!”
“Stacey took amazing care of my two small pups. She gave me regular updates, asked about any special care instructions, and genuinely loves her dogs she takes care of. We will definitely come back to Stacey in the future.”
“Chelsea was very responsive and sent lots of pictures of our dog, which helped reassure us that he was doing well without us. He got lots of cuddles and attention while in her care.”
“James and Jasmine are hands-down the best dog sitters we’ve ever used. They are incredibly professional and took the time to understand Toby’s specific routine and needs. It was clear from the start that they genuinely love dogs and treated our Toby as their own. They were super reliable and kept us up to date with Toby's activities and sent us daily pix -- they truly went above and beyond to make sure Toby was comfortable and happy. We will definitely be booking them again! Thanks again guys!”
“Yi did a fantastic job with our dog Ozzie and sent wonderful photos each day. She made sure our crazy guy was happy and got along with other dogs. We couldn't have had better care for him!”
“Deborah did a fantastic job caring for my little guy, Boba. As it's my first time using Rover, she shared consistent updates with photos/videos, which put my mind at ease. She went above and beyond, took him on walks/parks, and made Boba feel well cared for and happy. Boba had the time of his life under Deborah's care.”
“My pup spent a few days with Kelly, and came back happy and healthy. Kelly was very responsive in her communication with me and sent a couple updates during his stay. Good job!”
“Martina and her family are fabulous sitters! We got lots of updates and photos and the boys were so well behaved when we picked them up. We could tell they gave them lots of attention and walks and they were very happy during their stay. Strongly recommend!”
“Matthew and Katelyn were wonderful with Sadie and sent me a daily update with photos! I could see she was loved and cared for! thank you so much for taking care of my wonderful girl in such a kind and loving way!”
“You couldn't ask for a better sitter than Sophia. She and her family took care of our guy Julius like family, with plenty of backyard time with their almost identical small-mid chihuahua mix Benny, where these guys bonded and had play time in a spacious backyard. She was amazing with photos, questions around any health or activity concerns, and prompt follow-up. As an add, she even had a new toy for him. That's going the extra mile. Definite recommend.”
“Ruo was a fantastic sitter. Very responsive, and photos every day. We saw Derby and Lou going for long walks and making new dog friends. I always know they had a good time when they are tired and calm coming home. Thanks so much Ruo!”

“Fang took fantastic care of my excitable pup! She was super communicative and sent lots of photo updates that left me with no doubt that Brodie was getting the absolute best care tailored to her needs, including multiple walks a day, play time, and lots of cuddles. I'm sure Brodie's already looking forward to staying with Fang again!”

“Jonah took wonderful care of our cat, Nali, while we were gone for a month. They were caring, communicative, and responsible. We will definitely reach out to them the next time we are out of town!”
About: Before my current employment I worked at a pet boarding facility that included cats for over 4 years. Additionally, I have 3 of my own cats that I raised since they were kittens. I have tons of experience handling cats with all different kinds of temperaments and personalities. I also have experience administering medications. Currently I work fully remote so my schedule is very flexible and I am even more open on the weekends and can accept last minute bookings. I know leaving your cats can be stressful for you and for them which is why I want to make the experience as stress free and calm as possible. I adore cats and I would love to nurture a bond with yours. (:

“Regina took great care of our cat, Pickles, while we were away! Her drop-in notes were consistently detailed, and she made sure to send us photos of our cat with each check-in. We are very grateful to have a cat-knowledgeable sitter that we know we can rely on!”
“Our cat Sesame loved Thien-Nha! We were also able to enjoy our time away knowing she was in her capable and caring hands. Very reliable and excellent communication - will definitely book her again!”
“Danielle took great care of my cat during her drop ins. She followed instructions exactly, and gave him a lot of attention and care. Danielle went above and beyond to solve a problem that she faced while I was away.”
“Octavia took care of our cat, Roni, while we traveled with our dogs. We came back to a happy cat! I’m grateful we have found Octavia. She does a great job and is very communicative about how everything is going when we are out of town.”
“Chelsea is AMAZING! She is so great with our cats—they love her and always come out to greet her despite being very shy. She also accommodated us over a holiday weekend last minute which we will forever be grateful for. She is very communicative, attentive, and considerate. Could not recommend more!”
“Amber was fantastic. I came home to a happy and healthy pup. She was a good communicator, left detailed recaps of her visits, and took great photos! I will definitely call on Amber again the next time I have to go out of town.”
“Elle was an amazing sitter for my two cats. She was easy to communicate with, sent lots of cat pictures, and our cats seemed to trust her a lot! She is a very responsible and caring sitter, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book Elle again.”
“I have used this service for many years at this point, and Julie is simply the best. She truly care about the animals and is also very knowledgeable. On the second day she quickly noticed from one of the cats’ behavior that he was sick and took him to the hospital, where the doctor found a partial urethral obstruction, which could have had dire consequences if diagnosed late. I cannot imagine what would have happened if we didn’t luckily have her. We feel truly indebted to her!”

“My puppy loves visiting Dalia! When we pull up, she jumps out of the car and runs to the door with excitement. Dalia always makes sure my puppy gets a good walk and a nap in, and she comes home in a great mood.”
“We have used Renz several different times and he’s always been great! Pepper loves he and his partner and their sweeeeet dog, Whiskey. Renz is very easy to coordinate with, follows all my instructions, troubleshoots intelligently, is skilled in obedience training, and seems to really enjoy learning Pepper’s needs. He has access to a variety of dog parks and trails, including agility structures, so I know Pepper is always going to have fun and be stimulated. Highly recommend!”
“Kuma had an amazing time with Crystal. She took Kuma out for several walks and was quick to respond if I had any questions. Kuma didn’t want to leave when I came to pick her up. Would definitely recommend Crystal!”
About: I have a wide range of experience from raising a puppy to handling reactive dogs. I’m good at basic obedience training and trick training. In fact many of my friends will come to me when she need advice on obedience training or dog calming methods. I’m currently working from home so my schedule is pretty flexible for potty breaks, play times, and walks. Depending on how comfortable you are with your dog, I can take your furbaby for long walks or to dog parks. I live in a townhouse with a small fenced yard. I have a 35lbs Australian Shepherd who would love to say hi and play with your dog.
“I very much appreciate Ruo’s attentiveness in creating such a comforting environment for my senior pup. Trinity is special needs (being both visually and hearing impaired). She is so calm when I pick her up - all signs of how at ease she is and evidence to the care Ruo provides to ensuring a stressful visit! ♥️”
“Keli and Greg have been so wonderful to Brisket and he loves coming to their house! Keli is super communicative and sends lot of cute pics throughout the day, and I know Brisket loves going on hikes with her. They are amazing sitters and we highly recommended them!”
“Pouneh is wonderful! From the beginning, she responded to my messages right away. We did an initial meet and greet at the local park. Nana immediately took to her and her daughters! I knew Nana would be happy and in good hands. Drop off and pick ups: I need to do an early drop off and it’s been super smooth. It’s easy to park in front and get Nana out safely and since we arranged that I send my ETA, Pouneh was already waiting outside ready to take her. Picking her up was also super easy. I texted ETA and she had everything ready with Nana. Again, parking was easy and available in front. Pouneh is very experienced and patient with dogs. She also has extra supplies like bowls, blankets, towels, leashes, etc., making it easier with less things to lug around. Nana looked so relaxed and happy when I picked her up that first day and each day since. I am happy to recommend Pouneh to anyone for doggie care and I will for sure rebook whenever I need an extra hand. Lastly, props to Rover as well. This is a great service and I don’t know what I’d do without it. I’ve always found great people here with sometimes short notice.”
“Chelsea is fabulous. Rei had a wonderful stay. I truly appreciated all of the updates and photos. Highly recommended and I will definitely be reaching back out for a future stay. It was great peace of mind, knowing Rei was in such good hands.”
“Kylie was amazing! She helped out in a pinch when there was a sudden need for pup care. Her dog was a great companion to ours, her home is lovely with a beautiful backyard for the dogs, and she's super flexible when things change up a bit. Highly recommend!”
About: I think animals are very special, and I can't imagine my life without them. I know how hard it is to leave them behind when traveling for extended periods of time, or even just out for the day, which is why you can trust in me to care for them 100%. As a plus, I absolutely love walking so having a partner to take out with me would be a huge bonus! Whether it's a morning walk or a few nights of watching your fur baby, you can count on me to show up. I will follow any guidelines that are given to me in order to take the best care of your pet. I appreciate having notes written down and an opportunity to walk through any tasks or special requests you may have. Safety is my top priority! I currently have my own business (working remotely) and have a lot of flexibility in my schedule to cater to the needs of your pet! When caring for a pet in my home, safety, trust and environment are paramount. I will ensure my home is pet-proofed, removing any hazard that could pose risks to the animal. I will establish a secure and comfortable space where the pet can sleep, play and eat without stress. Building trust with your dog is also crucial and achieved through consistent, gentle interaction and positive reinforcement.
About: I have grown up around dogs my whole life. I am well-versed in walking large and stubborn dogs such as Newfoundlands and Great Pyrenees. I have been a parent to Wells, a very high-energy Vizsla, for 5 years now. We did all our training ourselves and successfully trained a great loose-leash walker. I am eager to help other dogs learn this skill as well! I am working locums, so I am gone for 4 days twice a month and otherwise home and available the rest of the month. Open for walks and visits all day! If your dog is open to a play date, I have a very friendly, high-energy dog that would love to get his zoomies out with your pup. Open to going for long walks or nearby fenced-in dog parks.
About: I’m a dog mom to Pepper, my 9-year-old rescue, so I understand how much trust it takes to leave your furry baby with someone else. I’ve cared for friends’ pets for years, and I also have foster experience — I cared for an 18-year-old senior dog for 9 months until he found his forever home:). I’m calm, patient, and attentive to each pet’s personality, whether they need a slow walk, playtime, senior care, cuddles, or quiet company. I’ll treat your pet like my own and send updates so you can feel relaxed while you’re away. We work from home, so pet care fits naturally into our daily routine. We usually do a morning walk, some playtime in our private driveway around lunchtime, and an evening walk or park time. On very hot days, we avoid walking in the middle of the afternoon and prefer safe playtime in our shaded/private driveway instead. We live in a townhouse with a long private driveway, a nearby dog park, and several dog-friendly parks in the neighborhood. It’s a very dog-friendly area, and many of the neighborhood dogs already know and get along with our rescue dog, Pepper. At home, I focus on a calm, safe environment with supervision, patience, and care based on each dog’s personality and comfort level.
“Patrina was amazing to work with! She took the time to meet with me before hand to make sure King and Bogey would get along. During Bogey’s stay, she was very communicative and sent lots of photos of all the fun activities. Bogey looked like he had a great time and was so content when I picked him up. I will definitely be using Patrina again!”

“Marco was great with Cali! He visited first for a meet and greet, and was terrific about communicating how she was on walks. I loved the pictures he sent too. He is friendly and kind and I highly recommend him!”
“Octavia is amazing! Very communicative and knows how to handle dogs incredibly well. Her dog training experience is super key and nice to have. She's been able to help our dog already not react as strongly to other dogs passing by. She's definitely becoming out go to person to take care of our dog in San Jose.”
“Josh was great with my dog. Firm but not aggressive or hostile with my spirited Samoyed. Griffin loved going with Josh on his walks with Josh 's great dane and little terrier. It was a small, medium and large trio lol. Josh was punctual, reliable and gave the full hour. Would recommend 🙂”
About: I'm open to most types of pet sitting and have a hybrid work approach so more often than not am able to stay for the majority of the day with your furry child! I love walking in general, playing with dogs, cats, and appreciate that every pet has their own personality. Pet setting has always been a source of joy in my life and creating long standing relationships with families and their pets. It is such an amazing feeling to be treated with a wagging tail or a tail straight up depending on the pet :) and know that sending photos of their fur friend is bringing peace of mind to a family. I understand how much a pet means and am willing to go the extra mile to fit your families needs. I'm a graduate student getting a masters in clinical psychology in the evenings, which means I am available most days of the week and weekend during the day. I know I'm in good company here in saying that I treat my own cat like she's a part of my family. With any animal I'm taking care of I do my best to adhere to the schedule that the pet is used to in an effort to maintain a sense of normalcy when their family is away from them. I usually like to get to know what each pet likes and make sure we are trying to do some of their favorite activities to make their time positive. I make a concerted effort to keep the home neat and tidy each day so that the pet is also feeling clean and comfortable, but also so that the owners know that I respect not only their pet but their home. Depending on the preference of the owner I find it fun to send a small daily update which includes a photo and how the pet is doing overall.

“Miranda was wonderful she came over the day before to meet with our pup bc he can be skiddish around new people. I would recommend her to anyone needing walks in the area.”
About: My Pet Care Experience Growing up, I had the joy of sharing my life with a variety of pets, each teaching me something unique about responsibility, empathy, and companionship. Over the years, I’ve cared for hamsters, cats, dogs, fish, bunnies, and turtles, and every one of them left a lasting impact on me. As a child, my hamsters taught me patience and attentiveness through their delicate care needs. Feeding them the right diet and cleaning their habitat were my first lessons in responsibility. With dogs and cats, I learned the importance of building trust and providing unconditional love. They showed me how meaningful the bond between humans and animals can be. Bunnies and turtles required different forms of care, from maintaining specific diets to creating environments that matched their natural habitats. These experiences taught me how to adapt and tailor my care to meet the needs of each pet. Even caring for fish required a level of diligence, as maintaining a clean tank and balanced water conditions was essential for their well-being. Now, as an adult, I deeply appreciate how much these experiences shaped my understanding of what it means to care for animals. Pets aren’t just companions; they’re beings that rely on us for their health, happiness, and safety. This realization drives my dedication to providing the best care possible for my current and future pets. Whether it’s ensuring they receive proper nutrition, regular vet check-ups, or just spending quality time with them, I believe that having pets is both a privilege and a commitment. Caring for animals has not only made me more responsible but has also brought immense joy and fulfillment into my life. Pet care is an important part of my daily and weekly routine, and I always make time to ensure pets are happy and healthy. Currently, as a student on vacation, I have plenty of free time during the holidays to dedicate to their care, including playing with them, grooming, and keeping their spaces clean. During the semester, I usually have classes in the mornings, but my afternoons and evenings are free. This gives me a flexible schedule to provide attention, exercise, and care for the pets. I enjoy creating a balance between my responsibilities and spending quality time with them, as I believe this is key to building a strong bond and keeping them content. I am very responsible when it comes to caring for pets, whether in my home or my client’s home. I always prioritize building trust with the pet, creating a bond that ensures they feel safe and comfortable with me. The place where I live is fenced and quiet, making it a safe environment for pets. However, I understand that pets often feel more comfortable staying in their own home, surrounded by familiar smells and routines. For this reason, I am more than happy to care for them at their place if that’s preferred. Regardless of the location, I make sure to follow their specific routines, provide plenty of playtime and attention, and ensure their needs are met with love and care.
About: I have an energetic English Labrador and Sheltie at home that I walk, groom, feed and provide medications to on a daily basis. I would care for others’ pets as my own. I am comfortable with medication administration including oral and topical (skin, ears and eyes). I have experience with caring for puppies as well as senior and disabled dogs with sight, hearing and joint/mobility issues. I have worked on a farm caring for horses, pigs, goats and ponies. I’m very comfortable around animals of all types and familiar with taking care of their daily needs. I currently attend summer classes in college but have a flexible schedule. I enjoy staying active and interacting with animals. Taking care of animals could easily be blended into my daily routine. I am tidy, dependable, and dedicated to making sure your pet(s) feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. Ability to follow specific instructions related to diet, medication administration and schedule, if applicable.
About: I’ve grown up with dogs since I was in elementary school, and I currently own two labs.

I’m a college student home for break so I have tons of free time - I’m available pretty much all hours of the day and weekend :) I’m unable to care for pets in my home (I have two dogs currently), but I’m more than happy to visit client’s homes as needed!

“This was the first time we booked with Nina and Leo and we were very happy! Leo sent many photos of our pups each day of our trip, along with updates on how they were adjusting to their new surroundings and how they were eating. We were very pleased with the communication and felt our pets were in good hands and well-loved while we were out of town. I would definitely recommend and would book again. Thanks Nina and Leo!”

About: Dogs have been a big part of our lives. We adopted Bruno, our beloved Labrador Retriever, with whom we spent 11 years until he fought bravely with cancer but could not win. Bruno socialized me to his friends like Mastiffs, German Shepherds, Corgis, Golden Retrievers and many more and helped me understand that each dog, irrespective of his breed, has a unique personality and temperament. Thus, please do tell us about your dogs unique traits and his phobias so that we can make him feel at home. This is important for us to know as dogs undergo huge stress to be away from their home. After Bruno passed away, we adopted Rex, Labrador Retriever, who has helped us heal and made us realize how important dogs are in our lives! Both, me and my wife WFH and have flexible working schedule. So one of us will be at home to take care of the pack. We have Rex, a Labrador Retreiver, who goes on walks 2x times a day for 2-3 miles everyday. If the dog is staying with us, based on his needs, he can join us on our walks. Plus, we have a fully fenced backyard for dogs to play and run freely. Often, we take break from our work and play with our dog in the backyard or go for a small 5-10 min walk outside our home. For everyone’s safety, the dog should get along with kids and other dogs. Please let us know if there are any health issues and/or food allergies. My wife and I have experience caring for senior dogs, and both of us are comfortable administering medications as needed.

“Ruo was a fantastic sitter. Very responsive, and photos every day. We saw Derby and Lou going for long walks and making new dog friends. I always know they had a good time when they are tired and calm coming home. Thanks so much Ruo!”
About: Firm yet loving care for all dogs, specializing in puppy training, high energy, hiking/running, and managing complex medical needs like seizures, food sensitivities, and limited mobility. Currently working from home with flexible time which allows me to integrate training, walks, play time, and medical monitoring throughout the day, while weekends are dedicated to long runs/walks and trail hikes. My approach to pet care is rooted in structure, trust, and genuine affection. My services will be tailored to each dog's needs indoors or outdoors.
“Fang took fantastic care of my excitable pup! She was super communicative and sent lots of photo updates that left me with no doubt that Brodie was getting the absolute best care tailored to her needs, including multiple walks a day, play time, and lots of cuddles. I'm sure Brodie's already looking forward to staying with Fang again!”
“I can’t say enough great things about Jas! He was able to care for our dog Murphy last minute. He was very responsive, sent updates and pictures throughout our whole trip. The pictures of Murphy showed how relaxed and happy he was! Pretty sure Murph came back smelling better 😆 We will definitely be using Jas again.”
“I highly recommend Ying for anyone seeking a reliable and attentive pet sitter. She was incredibly thorough, followed every detailed instruction perfectly, and kept me at ease with regular photos and videos. One of my dogs bonded with her immediately, which is the ultimate endorsement. I couldn't have asked for a more professional or caring experience!”
“This was Olive’s second stay with Janet and her family. We had an unforeseen circumstance that kept us out of town for an additional day, and Janet was incredibly kind to continue to watch Olive. We knew she was well taken care of. We would highly recommend Janet!”
“My fur babies are definitely in good hands with Aoran and his wife! I have a Husky and a Border Collie, and they both are super energetic and are trouble makers... Aoran sent me photos of them everyday, and was very communicative with any concerns/questions. They only accept one customer each time and has a fenced yard! I would love to board my dogs to them again in the future :)”
About: Hi, I'm Lexi! I'm a registered nurse from south Louisiana, currently working a travel contract here in the Bay Area. Taking care of people is what I do for a living, and dogs have had my heart even longer. I grew up surrounded by dogs and my parents have four back home, so I'm comfortable with a full house, big personalities, and everything from the anxious ones to the ones who think they're lap dogs at 80 pounds. On my last few contracts, I've cared for several doctors' pets while they traveled. Overnight stays, feeding schedules, medications, walks, and plenty of couch time. I'm detail-oriented by training, so I'll follow your instructions exactly and send photo updates so you're never wondering how things are going. Caring for something someone loves is a real responsibility, and it's one I take seriously. I'd love to do that for you and your dog. I work Monday through Friday, 8:30 to 5, and I'm free every weekend. I can board or house sit any time outside of those work hours. Weeknight overnights and full weekends both work well. During the week I'm also available for early morning and evening walks, drop-ins, and feedings before and after work. I live nearby with a fully fenced backyard, so there's plenty of room to get outside and play. My schedule is set and predictable, so once we book, you can count on me being there. At my place, your dog has a fully fenced backyard to run in and free rein of the house. No crating unless that's what they're used to and you'd prefer it. I check the gate and fence line before letting anyone out, and dogs stay leashed anytime we're beyond the yard, no matter how good their recall is. In your home, I follow your routine exactly as you've laid it out. Feeding times, walk routes, which doors stay closed, and any quirks I should know about. I ask a lot of questions up front so nothing is left to guesswork. I'm comfortable giving medications and I pay close attention to how a dog is acting; if something seems off, you'll hear from me right away rather than after the fact. I leave the space the way I found it and send photo updates throughout so you always know how things are going.
“Lia was a superstar! We really needed someone who would be flexible with the schedule as we were about to have a baby. Lia provided exactly what we needed. She worked with us to reschedule the sitting on short notice. She is experienced and careful. The dog came back happy and healthy.”
About: I may be new to dog sitting, but I’m definitely not new to being a dog person! 🐶💗 I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and truly can’t imagine life without them. I’m so excited to welcome some furry friends into my home and treat them like part of the family while they’re here. Whether your pup loves long walks, playtime, couch cuddles, or just having someone nearby, I’ll make sure they get plenty of love and attention. I can’t wait to meet your four-legged best friend! 🐾 I’m currently working on the weekdays but free on weekends. I’m mostly home during the weekends or outside hiking. Would love for a furry friend to join me on my hikes and lounge with me while watching Netflix! I live with my boyfriend and he will be around but I will be responsible for your pup! ☺️ I currently live in an apartment with my boyfriend Zach! I will be able to provide tons of potty breaks for your furry friend! I also would be around for multiple walks a day. Dogs are welcome on the bed when it comes to sleeping!
