Carolyn was great! She loved Oppy, sent pictures of her playing with him daily, and he was happy as could be when I came back! She was also very flexible and understanding with the timing of when to come see Oppy and some confusion due to me having old kitten food still out. I really appreciate her communicativeness and understanding as I guided her to the correct food to use. Would definitely recommend as a cat sitter!

Valerie is fantastic! I had to reach out for a last minute drop-in visit and she was not bothered by it at all. She asks great questions to follow any instructions you may leave, and remembered everything even with her arriving to a new place within the hour. My puppies didn’t get the chance to meet her prior, but loved having her stop by and play with them. Loved the pictures too! Highly recommend☺️

Hello. I personally know Melissa Kehoe as a dedicated, responsible pet parent. She is deeply affectionate towards her own pets and it was a very cool coincidence that her dog and my dog had the very same name. She lovingly treats her own pets as her own children and goes out of her way to ensure their happiness, safety and well-being. I would absolutely recommend Melissa to be a responsible dog owner.

Fernan has always been reliable when caring for my dog Teddy. We ask him to look after him every time we go on vacation, and we always return to our dog in the same happy and healthy shape. We'll always go to Fernan when it comes to walking and caring for our dog.

About: I love dogs, I understand how important they are for you so I will take care of them like are they are mine. I am very affectionate and caring myself so I will for sure be careful with your pet. I am also very active and playful hence that makes me the person who will run your dog and keep him happy and playing. I do not have professional experience but i have been around dogs all my life and they have been happy. My neighbors and friends leave their dog with me when they go out on trips and stuff. Apart from all the dog stuff, i go to San Francisco State University for Journalism and Women & Gender Studies. Live in the city with my friends and part time work at the library. I am currently working part-time so I have a lot of availability for the remainder of this year. I am also flexible with arranging my availability. I am able to keep your pets safe during walks and sittings. There are several fenced dog parks in my area and a safe area for them to play in my building.

Paige was absolutely wonderful. She went above and beyond in all ways when taking care of my kitties, giving detailed updates every day with plenty of photos. She adapted to their individual personalities and care styles and did it all with a kind and friendly attitude. They absolutely fell in love with her! Leaving my babies behind for so long for the first time was definitely scary, but I am so happy to say that I could relax knowing Paige was there to take care of them. I will definitely be booking with Paige again next time I need a sitter!

I have known Chris for at least ten years now and have seen him interact with my dog since 2017. Chris has a wide ranging knowledge of how to train dogs and also how to “read” their body language. He has a very gentle manner with my dog and also knows how to let a dog know when certain behavior is not okay. In my experience, he has never been threatening or mean to an animal. I recommend Chris highly as a pet sitter or dog walker.

I reached out to Ariel to play with my cat for 30 minutes so she’s not alone all day. She offered a meet and greet to first introduce herself to my cat days before the actual visit and during the visit she made sure to keep my cat entertained and comfortable. She was also super responsive and respectful of my rules. Very happy with her service!! 😊

Emily is a responsible and loving pet owner herself, so when she pet sits for others, she's coming from a place of caring and compassion. She communicates well and is easy to work with. Emily has cared for my cat, and I always felt secure in leaving her in Emily's care.

Our rescue pup can be pretty nervous with strangers. Ivan always takes his time with Raspberry and is very kind and understanding. It gives us a lot of peace of mind when we leave her home alone. ❤️

Carolina is an excellent dog-sitter and dog walker that is very trustworthy with your beloved pets. She took great care of our elderly basset hound while she was an Au Pair for our family/children for (2) years in 2020-2021. She loves dogs and dedicates time to make them feel comfortable and cared for. It isn't easy to care for a blind, elderly dog, but she did a great job. Thank you Carolina for loving our animal and children like your own!

Jenid is one of the nicest people I've ever seen work with dogs. It may sound weird but she lights up a room ,and the dogs see it everytime. She makes the dogs jump for joy (no pun intended) and has even helped me out with my dog. I can ask her for a few tips on how to better care for my dog Maxwell. She let's me know what I should do to improve his care and just make him happier. She is an amazing dog person.
