About: I’ve had 3 dogs of my own and have cared for many more. I’m communicative, dependable, and will make your dog feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I work from home, have a fenced in backyard, and take at least two long walks every day! I just might become your dog’s new best friend! I work from home so your pet can have company all day long! I am active and go for long walks every day and hikes most weekends. I live right near the river trail and Patrick Smith park. I have a fenced in backyard. I have no other pets in the house so your dog will be king/queen of the house while they’re here! I only book pet(s) from one family at a time.
“Brooke was phenomenal. I feel lucky to have found her and think she's an absolute gem on this app. I will definitely be using her again to take care of Luna, would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter! It was a huge relief to know that Luna was being so well attended to. She seemed really happy and like she settled in with Brooke right away and Brooke's communication was amazing. I received lots of updates and photos.”

“I've has Lynn watch my beloved miniature pinscher for two separate two week stays and I couldn't feel more confident that he is well-cared for while I'm gone. Lynn is a superstar in my book! I highly recommend her to look after your furry friends! Jim W., San Pablo”


About: I offer thoughtful, detail oriented pet care with a strong focus on consistency, safety, and communication. I’m comfortable caring for senior pets, managing routines, and providing a calm presence for animals that may be anxious or sensitive to change. I am also comfortable with medication management. I take the responsibility of being in someone’s home seriously and aim to create a seamless experience both for pets and their owners. You can expect clear communication, reliability, and a high level of respect for your space. My dog, Tessie, is so important to me so I treat your pets with as much love and care that I would want her to have. My work experience includes firefighter/paramedic, ER nurse, clinic work, and am certified in Pet First Aid. I am the Clinical Director at a local free clinic. This allows me to have flexible but predictable hours each week. Because of this I can provide consistent, punctual visits with compassionate care for your pets. For house sitting I can make mid day visits so that your pets are not alone for longer than needed. I cater each experience to the needs of you and your pet. I prefer to have clear communication of your preferences so that I can ensure that you are as happy with the visit as your pets are. For house sitting, I stay in the home so pets can remain in their familiar space with minimal disruption. I follow their usual feeding, walking, and medication schedules, provide companionship throughout the day and evening, and ensure the home is cared for as well (lights, plants, mail, basic tidiness). My goal is to maintain a calm, consistent presence so pets feel safe and relaxed while their owners are away. For in home drop-ins, I provide feeding, fresh water, litter box or yard clean up, medications if needed, and quality time with each pet. I tailor each visit to the pet’s energy level and personality including playtime, short walks, or quiet companionship. I also provide updates after each visit so owners feel connected and reassured. For dog walking, I focus on safe, structured walks that match your dog’s pace and needs. I prioritize leash safety, positive reinforcement, and a calm walking experience. Walks can include neighborhood routes or familiar areas your dog enjoys, or local dog parks, and I always ensure they return home settled, hydrated, and comfortable.
“We were lucky to find Lily when our regular sitter was unavailable. When we picked Tyson up I think he would gladly have stayed longer. We would be very comfortable booking with Lily again.”
“Charity is a wonderful dogsitter! Has a fenced in yard and takes lots of walks. Her adorable dog, Oatmeal, is so sweet and will play along if your dog wants him to. Sends lots of pics. Highly recommend.”

“Ari had probably his best stay ever with a sitter at Cressendra's. He was welcomed and understood and photographed (*great* photos!) and - although often skittish with other dogs - was exuberantly engaged with Amigo from the beginning. Cress is communicative, flexible, truly cares about the dogs, 'gets' them. A great photographer. A stellar person. Will definitely leave Ari with her again if she will have him!”

“I hired Britt for a drop-in visit for my two cats, and it was such a relief knowing he was checking on them. He made sure they were okay and had plenty of food and water. The photos he sent gave me real peace of mind while I was away. I’d definitely recommend him.”

About: I am a stay at home pet mom, and an active human grandma. I can take care of all kinds of animals. I have experience with cats and dogs in every stage of life. I've had pets of all kinds since childhood . I will treat your pet like my own. My pooch is very spoiled! I am a stay at home Morkie mom. I have plenty of time to pop in for walks, love, and attention. I am also able to tend to the needs of your other pets if needed. I can come to your home and take care of your pet according to thier individual needs. I will walk your pet and/or we can play fetch, tug, or whatever fun activities your pet loves.

About: I’ve always had a soft spot for cats, and I’ve had the sweetest cat of my own, Chunky Milk. He had such a big personality and definitely kept me entertained! Living with him taught me that every cat has their own unique personality, routines, and little quirks. I understand that some cats are playful and social, while others need a little more time and space to warm up. I’m happy to meet them where they’re at and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. Whether your cat wants playtime, attention, a cozy companion, or simply someone to keep their routine on track, I’d love to give them the same love and care I gave my own Chunky Milk. 🐱🤍

“Mel was Amazing with Margaret! They were very understanding when our plans changed and flexible with our schedule. Mel sent an update daily and very communicative! Will definitely book again! 😸”


About: I offer gentle, dependable care shaped around each cat’s personality, routine and comfort level. I understand that cats often need patience, consistency and space to build trust. I follow feeding schedules carefully, keep litter areas clean, respect each cat’s boundaries and make time for play, affection or quiet companionship based on what they prefer. You’ll receive clear updates and photos while you’re away.
“hannah is the best! I always feel so at ease knowing she’s taking great care of my boy. she always sends updates and photos and videos. she’s kind and caring and leaves my house clean and my cat happy!”

About: Growing up on a farm, I developed hands-on experience with a wide range of animals, from livestock to household pets. Today, I extend that care to my friends’ pets whenever they need support, looking after everything from dogs and cats to more unique companions like snakes and chickens. My lifelong connection to animals has given me the skills and intuition needed to ensure they receive the attention and care they deserve. As a part-time web designer and content creator, I work primarily online, which allows me to maintain a highly flexible schedule. Since I set my own hours, I can easily accommodate pet care, always making time for dog walks, cat brushing, and any other needs. My adaptable routine ensures consistent and attentive care for all pets. I’ve had experience both welcoming pets into my home and house-sitting for others. I’m based in Taos, where there’s a fenced yard and access to great hikes nearby. If I stay at your home, you can expect it to be well-cared for, left clean, and I can also manage tasks like plant care as needed. NOTE for boarding: I do have a cat. Any visiting dogs must be cat-friendly and respect cat boundaries.
About: Look no further!! I’m the answer to all your dog’s needs… I respond quickly, so please reach out. Let’s do a meet and greet ASAP!! Please read my profile and client reviews, and check out my photo gallery where you’ll see what kind of fun that your dog and I will have on a daily basis. I send tons of pictures and videos. Headed out of town?? I’d love to create a seamless stress free opportunity for you to get away. Your dog(s) can stay at my place with AC, a fenced in yard, and many neighborhood parks nearby. My house is in a safe and quiet neighborhood right across the street from Frenchy Field. If you prefer your dog to have the familiarity of your home, let’s chat about housesitting. Guaranteed fun either way. I love all dogs unconditionally. I can provide a smaller pack environment for your dog rather than a kennel where there could be 50 dogs at a time. Yikes!! I only accept dogs from one to two owners at a time so please plan ahead as I may get booked very quickly. This ensures that I can give your dogs the attention and care that they deserve. My daily routine revolves around my dog pack needs. Our routine is generally morning food, walk, park, play, chill, and then repeat in the evening. I work from home so I am flexible and can accommodate most needs for your pets. Everything from simple walks and feeding to extended stays at my place or yours, it sounds like fun to me. I have a full time best friend and dog named Spreckles who is pretty close to perfect. His nickname is Sprex. He is Hawaiian, so naturally he is very friendly and mellow with tons of Aloha. My number one priority is pack safety. I follow a daily routine and consistent schedule with my pack. Our day always starts with a nice walk to a nearby park. I use my own custom made leash system that I can walk many dogs at the same time, safely and securely. When we’re not out walking or at the park we do a lot of chilling and hanging out around our house and fenced in yard. I promote the pack mentality among my dogs as I am always their pack leader who ensures their safety and protection all the time. I’m glad to use your dog’s crate at my house whenever I am not home if needed (not typical). Sometimes I take the pack out on planned field trips, usually afternoons and weekends, to various places throughout the area. Frenchy Park is right across the street from my house and super fun for the pups. I treat and protect each dog as if they were my own and love them all unconditionally. FYI, I don’t introduce my pack to other dogs that we don’t know, to avoid any unwanted drama and to keep everyone safe. New dogs really shouldn’t be introduced while on leashes anyway. I speak the language of dogs and am confident around them always. I am always their alpha who provides a fun and safe space for my pack.

“Dawn was so amazing with our dog Miles. He was new to doggy day care and she helped both of us feel comfortable throughout the whole process. She was careful, considerate, and kind and we can’t wait to work with her again.”

“We felt super comfortable leaving our pup with Lily. It was his first time being away from us on a cross country journey, and I could tell when we picked him up that he had been loved and happy the whole time.”


About: I worked for ADW where I trained service dogs. High passion for animals. Walk, bathe, feed and train etc. I have four years of experience. I'm currently home from college for the summer and am working part-time. I have plenty of time to dog walk, dog sit, overnight etc. Available weekdays and weekends anytime. I don't have a fenced yard but can take your dog out on a leash. My home is pet friendly. I am willing to go to your home. Able to fit needs.
“Michelle was incredibly patient and accommodating throughout the booking process. She provided excellent care for my dog, and I felt completely at ease knowing my pup was in good hands. I would highly recommend her to anyone in the area and wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again.”

“Stephanie is wonderful! She’s incredibly responsive, and I love how peaceful and quiet her home is. I always feel comfortable leaving Oban with her because he gets so much attention and is closely watched and cared for. It’s clear that she genuinely loves having dogs around, and Oban is always happy to be there. Highly recommend!”

“Hannah watched our senior dog for the day so we could do some non dog friendly things while traveling. She was able to take us last minute and responded quickly. She was easy to communicate plans with and we felt totally safe leaving our dog with her. She has the perfect set up, works from home. He came back happy and tired!”


“Chloe did an excellent job taking care of my dog, Zoey. They went on several walks, and Zoey came home happy and tired each day. Chloe had great communication throughout and was a huge help during our visit to Santa Fe. I highly recommend her!”

“We had such a good experience leaving our Weimaraner with Eva. Our dog has separation anxiety, but with Eva he actually relaxed and seemed to enjoy himself! We received pictures throughout the stay, so we could relax and enjoy ourselves too. The location is a big plus for spending time around the plaza. We can't say enough good things about our Rover experience with Eva. Would definitely recommend.”

“My boys were instantly comfortable with Cressandra. It was remarkable. They are shy dogs, but day 1 of doggy daycare they already did zoomies, made themselves at home on the couch, and ate their full meal.”

About: I've had dogs and taken care of them since I was a young child. As an adult I’ve fostered dogs for over 5 years, taking care of all types of dogs. I have experience potty training, house breaking, bathing, and more. The dogs I have fostered came from all sorts of backgrounds; homeless, abusive households, neglected, seniors, disabled (blind, deaf, hard of hearing, missing limbs). I enjoy spending time with all animals and animals like to be around me. Currently working on my dog trainer certification I have a flexible schedule since I work from home most of the time. As a dog owner myself I spend a lot of time taking care of my dog. We go on walks 3 times a day, he gets treats, cuddles and play time all day long. On the weekends when the weather is nice we like to go for short hikes. Unfortunately I sustained a bad fall in 2024 and broke my back; so I am unable to care for any pet over 50lbs or any pet that is leash reactive or pulls on a leash. Since that would aggravate the injury and most definetely stop me from caring for pets all together; I hope you can understand! I have a small backyard where we go play fetch, we also love going to Frenchy’s or many of the other parks in the area for walks and off leash play when the weather is nice. Going for walks 2-3 times a day around the neighborhood as well
“THE BEST! My dog instantly fell in love with David and Spreckles. The level of care is unmatched, both in David’s knowledge about dogs and the opportunity for Romeo to wrestle and cuddle all day with a fantastic friend. On the second day we went, Romeo SPRINTED to the door and left me in the dust. Highly recommend!”

“Hannah is incredibly sweet and our pup, Mila, was smiling in every photo. Completely trustworthy, I would choose Hannah every time we come back to SF! She gave us some great tips on places to enjoy while we are here.”

About: I’ve taken care of my family friend’s dog for 7 years and have experience feeding, walking, playing with, and keeping pets comfortable while their owners are away. I’m responsible, dependable, and enjoy spending time with animals. I’ll make sure your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for. I work full-time during the week, but I’m available all day on Sundays and Mondays. Pet care fits well into my schedule, and I enjoy spending time with dogs. I’ll make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, exercise, and care while you’re away. I have a secure fenced yard and two friendly dogs that can provide companionship if your pet is comfortable around other animals. I always prioritize safety, supervision, and making pets feel comfortable in a new environment. I will follow your pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special instructions you provide. If needed, I can also crate your dog to ensure they are safe and comfortable
About: I’ve had pets my whole life including Great Danes, cats, bunnies, gerbils, fish and have been dog and cat sitting professionally for 5 years. Recently I lived and worked on a thousand-acre farm caring for cows, horses and goats, doing everything from feeding, cleaning and even bottle feeding. Bottom line is I love pets, and would love to meet your four-legged family members!! I currently work from my computer so I am very mobile and happy to be flexible with scheduling, etc. I love spending time with all animals so I make it a priority to fit this kind of work in. *If you have multiple pets and my site is quoting a large number for your sitting request, please know I am happy to look closer and find a good price for all! If I am giving care at your home my number one priority is your animal’s safety. That’s best implemented by focusing on your (the owner’s) rules and daily routines. Once I establish that, I focus on creating a special bond with your pet—it’s like they’re getting a new friend. If I’m boarding at my house my number one priority is to create a new and special routine that reflects their home routine but with new special elements. I have a very large yard and a safe neighborhood to take pets on walks, and as long as they are happy sharing space with a cat we have a really good time!
About: Hello my name is Brandy, I have a deep connection with all animals, I have cared for all kinds of animals and homesteads throughout my life. I am able to keep your animals, home and plants in beautiful spirits. I have never met an animal or plant that did not love me. I am looking forward to taking care of your baby as if it were my own. I am a spiritual teacher with a psychology background, I am a mother of four grown children. I have always had pets, and could not imagine my life without them, I make my own schedule and hours and can work from anywhere. I am available. I have wide open spaces to walk, on a leash, if they have good recall we will learn to trust each other before we go off leash. I
About: My goal is to make sure everything is easy for you. I will take care of your animals needs, prioritizing their comfort & safety. My bond with animals has been strong since I was a child. My first experience with dogs was my Husky who used to give me chaparoned rides in the backyard as a toddler. I grew up with all sorts of pets; dogs, cats, bunnies, mice, hamsters, chickens. I cant imagine life without animals! I will take care of all your pets needs. Every animal is different. Just leave instructions, and ill take care of the rest! I will send photos throughout the stay as well :) Pet care fits easily into my daily routine. I’m flexible and can work around you and your pets schedule. We’ll find a rhythm that works for both of us. Alongside pet sitting and house sitting, I offer energy healing sessions. Feel free to ask me more.

About: I have experience with all animals - farm animals, aquatic animals, dogs, cats, feral animals too. I love goats and miss my farm. I can't have animals of my own at this time and just looking for a rewarding side hustle. I find healing in the presence of animals. I'm currently available seven days a weeks - flexible and reliable. I recently have been laid off from my regular employer. I am looking for an easygoing rewarding solution. Animals could provide so much more to me than an income. Especially at this time in my life. Transition is hard but Im determined. I ensure safety and routine for your pet. I will do everything I can to ensure they are well cared for and safe in your environment or mine.

About: I’ve always had a special love for animals and the outdoors. I grew up surrounded by pets and have had multiple pups throughout my life, including my two sweet Border Collies, Meko and Oppie. They brought so much joy and personality into my life, and caring for them taught me how much love, patience, and attention our pets deserve. I also have a background as a wilderness guide, so being outside and exploring nature is a huge part of who I am. I know how much dogs love getting outside, sniffing around, going on adventures, and simply enjoying the fresh air—and I’d love to give your pup that same experience! Over the years, I’ve also cared for friends’ and family members’ dogs for weeks at a time, so I’m comfortable taking on the responsibility of caring for a pet while their person is away. I’m attentive to their routines, personalities, and individual needs, and I want every pet in my care to feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I have a friendly, easygoing spirit that animals seem to pick up on right away. Whether your pup wants an adventure, a long walk, some playtime, or simply a cozy companion to hang out with, I’m happy to be there for them. 🐾 I have a flexible schedule and am available throughout the week, which allows me to give your pets plenty of time, attention, and care. Pet sitting fits naturally into my day-to-day life because I love being outdoors, staying active, and having animals by my side. I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine, whether they need morning walks, midday check-ins, playtime, or evening care. I enjoy getting outside for walks and adventures, but I’m also perfectly happy spending a quiet day at home keeping your pet company. My goal is to make pet care feel seamless for both you and your pet, while keeping their normal routine as consistent and comfortable as possible. Your pet’s safety and your peace of mind are my top priorities. I’m attentive to your pet’s needs, their routine, and any special instructions you leave for me. I take the responsibility of caring for someone’s pet seriously and will always treat them with patience, kindness, and respect. As a wilderness guide, I’m comfortable being responsible in changing environments and staying aware of my surroundings. I’m also a big believer in clear communication, so I’ll keep you updated and let you know how your pet is doing while you’re away. I’ll treat your home and your pet with the same care and respect I would want for my own. 🐾

About: I offer thoughtful, detail oriented pet care with a strong focus on consistency, safety, and communication. I’m comfortable caring for senior pets, managing routines, and providing a calm presence for animals that may be anxious or sensitive to change. I am also comfortable with medication management. I take the responsibility of being in someone’s home seriously and aim to create a seamless experience both for pets and their owners. You can expect clear communication, reliability, and a high level of respect for your space. My dog, Tessie, is so important to me so I treat your pets with as much love and care that I would want her to have. My work experience includes firefighter/paramedic, ER nurse, clinic work, and am certified in Pet First Aid. I am the Clinical Director at a local free clinic. This allows me to have flexible but predictable hours each week. Because of this I can provide consistent, punctual visits with compassionate care for your pets. For house sitting I can make mid day visits so that your pets are not alone for longer than needed. I cater each experience to the needs of you and your pet. I prefer to have clear communication of your preferences so that I can ensure that you are as happy with the visit as your pets are. For house sitting, I stay in the home so pets can remain in their familiar space with minimal disruption. I follow their usual feeding, walking, and medication schedules, provide companionship throughout the day and evening, and ensure the home is cared for as well (lights, plants, mail, basic tidiness). My goal is to maintain a calm, consistent presence so pets feel safe and relaxed while their owners are away. For in home drop-ins, I provide feeding, fresh water, litter box or yard clean up, medications if needed, and quality time with each pet. I tailor each visit to the pet’s energy level and personality including playtime, short walks, or quiet companionship. I also provide updates after each visit so owners feel connected and reassured. For dog walking, I focus on safe, structured walks that match your dog’s pace and needs. I prioritize leash safety, positive reinforcement, and a calm walking experience. Walks can include neighborhood routes or familiar areas your dog enjoys, or local dog parks, and I always ensure they return home settled, hydrated, and comfortable.
“We were lucky to find Lily when our regular sitter was unavailable. When we picked Tyson up I think he would gladly have stayed longer. We would be very comfortable booking with Lily again.”
“David was an amazing sitter for my two dogs! He took so much care in meeting and acclimating them with his own and it was so easy to see how much he truly loves dogs. I received photos and videos along the whole stay and knew the entire time my babies were happy and cared for. Thank you so much!!”

“Violeta was perfect. Can tell she really loves dogs and really cares about them. She watched my dog for nearly 3 weeks. Sent pix and notes. I can’t say enough good things. She’s a great person that really cares about animals. ?”

“Thank you for taking such good care of Scooter & Cookie. No worries about us having to pick up the dogs earlier than expected; no one can help getting sick. I'm just glad we woke up early and saw your message to come pick them up! lol Hope you feel better!”
