“My pug LOVES spending time at Lauren and Ben’s house playing with all the dogs or just lounging on the floor. When we arrive, he tugs hard on his leash to get inside. It’s wonderful to know that when he’s away from home, he’s safe and happy in their care.”

“Heather and Calob are so awesome! I’m so glad to have found them to watch our two pups. They are so flexible, responsive and easy to coordinate with. They were great about sending photos too. And our pups sure loved them. Looking forward many more stays in the future!”

About: I’m a responsible and caring pet lover with 9 years of experience caring for dogs. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, feeding, or just keeping them company, I make sure every pup feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I treat every dog like my own—because they deserve nothing less! 🐾 I have plenty of availability to walk, play, and feed your dog. I have a very friendly dog of my own who loves to make new friends. I take her on daily walks and to the park for some extra running sessions! There are plenty of cuddles and treats to go around! I love dogs and making sure that they are having the best time because they deserve it. When watching your pet you can be at ease as I take extreme pride in taking care of our fur babies. I have a fenced in back yard for security, with a good area for running and sniffing. Dogs are allowed on furniture for some rest and relaxation. I care for my own dog with lots of love, playtime, and treats!
“Steven hosted my dog over for doggy day care when I received a last minute cancellation from another sitter. All worked out great. Steven had prompt communication, understood dog behavior and needs, followed through on my requests on how to care for my dog. Perfect experience, highly recommend! My dog will be back!”


“I knew my dog would be in great hands the moment Kim greeted him and me at her door. My dog was happy and tired (which is a good thing!) when I picked him up after a day with Kim!”

About: Something that sets me apart is that I am a certified dog trainer who LOVES all dogs. As a whole our property is on my family's farm which is completely enclosed. Dogs are treated like they are family- just like our dogs! Pet care fits into my daily/weekly routine in various ways- with my own dogs I train with them daily. This includes training with other dogs who stay with us as this helps build my own skills. When it comes to other dogs on the property in boarding-someone is always on the property so your pup will receive lots of hands on time socializing with other dogs. We make it a point to build dogs up to be confident and excited to "vacation" (board) at our farm. Imagine 5 acres of enclosed land for running amuck, a yard for dogs that don't play well with others, and our own dogs teaching your pups the ropes along the way. The idea is that your dogs is treated like our dogs when they are here- and we LOVE our dogs and will love yours too!
About: Caring for animals is one of my greatest passions in life. I am responsible, detail oriented, and will provide the very best care for your pet. I have many years experience with a variety of animals. I had a farm in Illinois before moving to NorCal 10 yrs ago. On this farm, I rescued many animals including dogs, cats, goats, and chickens. I look forward to meeting you and your pet(s)! I have a very flexible schedule and can come to your home to care for your pets any day of the week. Please let me know of any special requests you may have. I go the extra mile to ensure your home and your pets are cared for. It is important to me that your pets are very comfortable and receive the care they deserve.
“Kozue hosted my dog over their home for doggy day care various days by now and we will keep coming back! I trust that my dog is in good hands when she's over Kozue's home. She gets to sunbathe and walk in the secure gated yard to smell around. I think my dog wishes she lived there ; )”

“David M. Was great- sent pics and video during the day. Will use his services again without question. Our two dogs spent the entire day with him and we are so pleased. Thank You, David M.”

“Ellen was such a great sitter! I needed a Rover sitter last minute and she was able to help. She is very kind and communicative and I immediately felt comfortable leaving Grayson with her. She provided photo updates and reassured me he was fitting in well with her pups! I’ll definitely be a repeat customer! (Oh and she sent Grayson home with a stash of really good treats which he promptly reminded me of when we got home - thanks, Ellen!)”
“Ethan is amazing! He works so well my with 9 month old Golden Retriever Sunshine! She is a handful to deal with and every time I drop her off there is such a positive difference in her behavior. He keeps the line of communication open and kept me posted on her behavior while in his care. He always sent me photos of her so I always knew she was in good hands. I really appreciated the one on one time he spent with her. He has taken her on hikes to Mission Peak and also to Baylands Nature Preserve! He gives my pup tons of exercise. A tired pup is a happy pup!! He goes above and beyond to make sure my pup is well taken care of! He continues to provide me with different training techniques with my fur baby. He has a genuine love for dogs and I will recommend him to anyone. He deserves 10 ⭐️‘s!!”

“Audrey took great care of Jo! My pup is always a little anxious when I’m not around, and Audrey took things slow, didn’t get stressed with my pup sticking to her like Velcro and needing extra snuggles throughout the day. She sent lots of pictures and updates throughout the day, so I didn’t have to wonder how things were going!”

About: For the past 7 years, my husband Jason and I have lived in Australia, but we're back in the US as of 2025 and we’d love to take care of your dog! We are a clean, non-smoking, kid-free, 1-dog home, with a huge fenced-in yard. Dogs sleep with us (or whatever you feel most comfortable with) - no crates here, unless you prefer it for your cutie! About us... Jason and I love taking care of dogs. We both grew up with dogs (and cats) and so they have always played an important part of my life. My husband and I rescued a dog 3 years ago, and he is our "fur baby". He loves being around other dogs and is always looking for a playmate. Working from home makes it easy to take care of dogs! There's always time for breaks for meals and walking and play time. For social dogs, we have a very friendly dog Riggs, who is a 15 pound mini poodle shih tzu mix. He's great with other dogs, and picks up on their energy well. We prioritize the safety and well-being of every pet we care for. In our home, we provide fresh water always, and food according to the pet's dietary needs. We have a large fenced backyard that all dogs have access to as they please (the door remains open for them to go in and out, except at night when it's dark). During walks, I use a secure leash and harness/collar and pay close attention to their surroundings. When caring for pets, we follow your specific instructions for feeding, medication, and any other routines.
About: I have been taking care of cats and dogs on and off since I was a teenager. In the last 9 or so years my love for being the “dog aunty” of my social circle has grown into a career and I have professionally cared for pets of all shapes and sizes, and with a wide range of needs and personalities. This includes caring for pets at my home and at the fur babies’ homes, day visits, grooming visits, training visits, and even overnight 24 hour sitting for up to a month at a time, with specific pets. I have also worked with several puppies and senior dogs and have had success in both introducing and reinforcing obedience training. I also have experience working with a range of pack sizes, caring for groups of 1-8 pets at a time, both large and small. In addition, I have experience caring for senior pets with special medical needs, and the necessary attention and clean up required for those pets. I love animals and I am always looking forward to meeting new animal friends. I am currently also working as a pet portraiture artist, so my schedule is up to me and I am very flexible and open to working around your schedule and your pets needs. Safety and stress free environment is number 1. I like to get to know the pets I cared for and what their specific needs are. I have experience and am comfortable with all common leash and harness types, and confident and excited to take your pet on a walk. I have worked with and helped a handful of reactive dogs improve on their stranger danger responses when out on walks. I don’t shy away from a challenge and would love to help if I can while letting your baby get some fresh air. I am confident and comfortable using a crate, both indoors and if needed for transport in case of an emergency. In the case of an emergency medical issue, I am quick to respond and have a good relationship with several local vet hospitals. I will keep your baby safe and happy and I am always ready to accommodate their parents wishes.
“Jake loved his day with Sierra and her dogs. They actually knew each other as he had meet them before at a grooming! Sierra is also his groomer and he adores her. So it was a day full of joy for my pup. Will use Sierra again for sure. :)”


“Sara had a great day of daycare with Olivia. Sara is usually quite anxious in any new situation and this is the calmest I have ever seen her when I picked her up. Olivia is caring and knowlegeable and she is very receptive to any special needs. Very, very pleased!!”

“This was our second petsitting with Erin and Brenton. Our precious baby did great with them and it's obvious that they really care about pets - and pet owners! We got lots of pic updates and could see all the cool activities she was doing! Our doggo is very social with people and with other dogs and it was great to know she was in good hands - we'd definitely let our baby come back!”
