Erica watched my senior dog and cat for 12 days while I was traveling internationally. She was organized, responsive, and took excellent care of both my animals and my apartment while I was away. She sent me photos during the stay and my pets absolutely adored her. She has watched my pets before and I always trust her to take excellent care of them. Traveling internationally and leaving my pets in the care of a sitter always makes me a little nervous, since I won't always be immediately reachable. However, Erica's communication and obvious competency made me feel very comfortable about leaving my pets in her care while I was away. It's very obvious she adores spending time with the pets and caring for them. I came home to a clean apartment and very happy and healthy pets. I would highly recommend Erica for any of your sits!

Due to a family emergency, I had to leave the country earlier than I had planned, and needed a sitter to fill in the gap between my departure and another sitter. Michele responded within minutes of my posting the sit, and then we spoke and confirmed the sit within hours. Her husband, Israel, was coming from Mexico to France, while she and her kids were to come from Sweden. When Michele’s travel plans changed, and she wouldn’t be able to come with her children, she assured me that Israel would still come to look after the house and dogs. To do this, for a stay of only five days, he flew to Paris, and then to the south of France, where he rented a car and drove the rest of the way to my place. As I was already traveling, the previous sitters filled him in on the various things that needed to be tended to: caring for two dogs, tending to hens, watering 90 young olive trees daily, as well as other things. The place is big and it took me 3-4 weeks when I first moved in to figure out where things were and what to do. Israel mastered everything upon his arrival, sent me daily updates with photos of my two VERY happy dogs. In addition to all the upkeep, he managed to hike with the dogs daily. I arrived home to find everything perfectly maintained, two fit and and Israel’s guest house cleaner than it was when he arrived. Immaculate. I cannot even express my gratitude for to both Michele and Israel for such a sacrifice and commitment to do that for me. It was a very difficult time, as I was dealing with the loss of both my son and my mother. I did not worry for one second while my dogs and home were in Israel’s hands. Thank you both, so, so much. You’re welcome back anytime, with the entire family, even just for a visit, maybe just a well-deserved holiday, with no dog- or house- sitting!

Sue and Richard were greeted enthusiastically by the dogs ! They sent me pics of the dogs having a good time on the beach . Which is always reassuring. I can recommend them as dog sitters and they arrived on time and were packed up when I got back

I’m sure most folks say the nicest things about their sitter, but honestly, if there were a “super star” status available then Denise would win the prize as sitter of the year! From the start, Denise was an excellent communicator. While we were still in the decision phase, Denise was always available to chat either by FaceTime, telephone or text. It was so easy to choose Denise; as you can see from her countless 5 star reviews, she truly is the only pet sitter you’d ever need and the one everyone hopes to have. Denise came to our house eager to meet us, our pets and the quirks of our house. Denise has an excellent sense of humor and immediately put us all at ease. Our pets took to her as if she was a long lost friend (even our finicky Siamese cat was loving on her from the start). While we were gone, our dog had a non-emergency health issue come up and just like that Denise was taking her to our vet, and administered the dog’s meds like a champion (Denise is also a nurse BTW). Additionally, Denise brought our pup to her scheduled groom appointments and even made future appointments for us to make our return home as seamless as possible. Denise was even above and beyond helpful to our neighbors and they appreciated her giving them access to our refrigerator when theirs broke down on Thanksgiving Eve! When we got home we were super impressed by how perfectly immaculate our house was! Most sitters leave the house clean, but Denise met and may have even exceeded our military standards of clean and orderly. Seriously, our house felt like we never left it. Everything was spotless, shinny and clean. She didn’t miss a beat!! Our pets were so happy to see us but honestly, I felt like our pup and kitty were disappointed when we walked in the door (I believe they were expecting to see Denise!). Haha. If you are ever fortunate enough to have Denise apply for any of your sits then I can’t recommend her enough. Seriously, you can stop reviewing applicants and just go with Denise. She was awesome in every sense of the word and I hope she’ll come back and stay with our pets again.

Angela Gandolfo and Erica Piazza came to stay at our house while we were away on vacation for two weeks. Our two dogs are a handful, but these two lovely women took such good care of them. They spoiled them even more than we do, which is perfect. We got photos every day, and when we came home our house was tidy and there were clean sheets on the bed. I couldn't have asked for better house and pet sitters than these two women. They communicated well with us, and if they had questions, they asked. It was a pleasure to work with both Angela and Erica. We had to cut our vacation short because of a death in the family. It was really stressful, but once again, Angela and Erica were flexible and understanding. It made a difficult time easier, knowing that things at home were being managed so well. I'm hoping that if we ever have to go away again for such a long time, I will be able to get these two back here again! (hint hint) Thank you, Angela and Erica!

Robyn was a great pet sitter and house sitter. She went way over and beyond my expectations!!!! She sent a photo of her and my dogs and they were looking at her like they were in love. And my cats are not very friendly, but she won them over also. I would highly recommend Robyn as a pet sitter and house sitter. She is a very sweet lady. I would love to have her watch my babies again and again.

Joanna and David were wonderful sitters for our dog Broderick and our apartment. Before starting to sit for us they took time to come and meet Broderick which we were very appreciative of. During their time sitting for Broderick we got great updates every day and wonderful photos of our pup, and they were very responsive whenever needed. When we got back home we found a happy puppy, healthy plants, and a spotlessly clean apartment - they had even taken the time to wash sheets and towels and left us a kind thank you note. We would have them sit for us again in a heartbeat!

We were so happy with Lynda's care for our senior pup. Lynda was extremely accommodating with the key hand over situation we had considering our early flights out of Berlin. She was easy to coordinate with and made this part of the holiday very smooth. We could also tell Sesame was in the best care. We received updates and photos of Sesame on walks and getting cuddles. We know Sesame can be sassy sometimes but Lynda was great with her little attitudes and handled her with ease. It was also really heart warming to see that Lynda truly enjoyed her time with Sesame and created a strong bond with her. We love to know that our dog is loved and treated with the care we would give her if we were home. Both my partner and I were able to fully enjoy our holiday as we knew from updates that Sesame and Lynda were doing well. Our apartment was clean and tidy when we returned and the sheets had also been washed. We would definitely have Lynda back and would recommend her to anyone else looking for an experienced sitter to stay with your pet.

First things first, Linda is awesome! If she applies for one of your sits, you have to accept! This was our first time using zeewoi and is also the first time we have left our dog since we got him. Obviously, we were nervous at the beginning, but Linda removed all aspects of that. She is honestly one of the nicest, kindest, most polite people you will meet. From our first initial meeting, we knew that she was the sitter for us, and for Archie. The day that we left, Archie let out a little cry as we said goodbye. This was the first time he had done this (it broke our heart), but we knew he was in great hands! Throughout the week, Linda was extremely communicative. She would send us daily updates, share videos of their walks together, and send pictures of the two of them having fun. She spoiled Archie with love, attention, and a couple of new toys! When we returned, the house was in the exact same condition as we had left it, and was very clean and tidy. When Linda left, Archie ran to the door, started to cry, and sat/laid there for some time - And we think that this alone is a great reflection of the kind of person that Linda is. Linda – It was an absolute pleasure to host you in our home, thank you for everything that you did for us and Archie, and for making our first experience a positive and memorable one. Archie misses you! We hope you get the chance to do it again for us in the future.

I cannot thank Jenny and Geoff enough for stepping in at the last minute after the original sitter cancelled. They are a great couple, friendly , organised and extremely capable. Also they LOVE animals. My dog and cat have clearly been given a great deal of care and attention in my absence. Jenny kept in touch with notes and lovely photos, Geoff cut my grass and I came home to a spotlessly sparkling house ! Thank you so much! Jenny and Geoff are welcome back anytime and I would not hesitate to recommend them as excellent sitters.

Jeremy managed to get us set up with a great dog walker at very short notice. We are working with Eric--he's gregarious and clearly into dogs and his job. We interviewed him with our dog and were immediately at ease. We have an ever changing schedule and Jeremy and Eric have been able to accommodate that with no problems. THANK YOU Red Rover!
Our dog has been getting walks from Red Rover for almost 4 years. We have also boarded her with them. We couldn't be happier with their services and customer service. Riley loves her walks and comes back a happy and tired dog. I really don't know how we would function without them.
We love Red Rover! Jeremy has always been amazing with our dogs and has really put my mind at ease as a worried dog mama whenever we’ve gone out of town. If I could rate more than five stars, I would!
Red rover has been taking our dogs on adventures for over 5 years. Jeremy and his team are great. We highly recommend their services. Lance and Laurie Page
I’m so glad to have found trustworthy, honest, friendly & truly caring walkers to take care of Ned. As a first-time rescue owner, Ned was adopted and lived with two other dogs for two years. I recently moved to the area on my own with this sweet dog and as an anxious dog parent, I do worry about him without his dog mates. Dave is amazing with Ned and goes beyond his dog walking service. Once on a very hot day in Oakland, Dave ensured Ned did not overheat and turned on the fan for him. Including checking on his water bowl. This was not our first dog walker - I had a few before who did not have the same level of professionalism and general care for my Ned. I am so grateful for Jeremy and Dave.
We really appreciate the dog walking services of Red Rover! Our dog receives twice weekly walks rain or shine and he loves it! Thanks for the great care and service Red Rover!
I've been a client for many years and the Red Rover team is part of our family. Service is excellent and I trust them to love and care for my dog as if it were their own.
We go to work knowing our little apartment dwelling dog is kept safe and stimulated with Red Rover! Shim loves his trail adventures. :)
I love Red Rover! My dogs are always happy and my cats are taken care of consistently and well.
Red Rover is fantastic. They love dogs and dogs love them! Reasonable rates and reliable walks and boarding

Molly and her team are wonderful, reliable, and experienced. Not only did my pup have a great time, but I got daily updates with tons of pictures. The Doggie Llama team does boarding, training, and dog walking right. When your pet is left with them you can rest assured that your pet is receiving quality care tailored to their needs and comfort. Their science-based approach to training and care sets them apart from the industry standard and sets my mind at ease knowing that my pet is receiving the highest quality of care.
EDIT: We are coming up on our five year anniversary being with Doggy Lama! Wow time has flown. We do have two new walkers that tag team, Joe (who is our primary walker) and Vero (who provides backup), but all the previous statements in my review are still valid. Joe and Vero are always communicative, respectful, and Warren can't wait to go on adventures with him and his pack. You can tell how much they each love and appreciate their dogs. ---- Our boy Warren, a border collie mix, LOVES his time with Kristen & Michael's packs. They're some of the most exceptional and trustworthy dog walkers we've had. Warren will wait up by the window for Kristen or Michael to come every morning - tail waggin a million miles an hour and whimpering from excitement. It makes me happy to see Warren get to play out on the trails, learn new skills, and socialize with his pals every day. Finding a trustworthy and professional dog walker is not easy. But Molly runs a tight ship, and the team she leads at Doggy Lama shows just how much she cares for and loves animals. If you're looking for pet care that exceeds the standard - I'd highly recommend you reach out to Doggy Lama.
Vanessa is pure gold. She has been walking my sweet husky-pit mix Margaux since she was a year old and forged an incredible bond not only with my pup, but with our whole family. Vanessa comes with heart, soul & leash - in that order. Vanessa adores her canine charges and they feel it. She is also a gifted photographer and I look forward to her pix every time Margaux goes out with her. She has my complete trust and gratitude. Margaux agrees!
I have worked with many dog walkers, dog trainers, and pet care professionals in the past. Doggy Lama Pet Care is a business with a different set of principles. They put positive reinforcement and employee training before profits and scale. A dog's physical and emotional health will always be Doggy Lama Pet Care's top priority. I was fortunate to work with the owner Molly and her dedicated team of employees. Every member of the staff was an absolute professional. I found the team to be incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about dogs. I have two rescue dogs that have their own cute little complexities. I am incredibly confident that any member of Doggy Lama Pet Care's team could properly care for my dogs and exceed my own expectations. I would highly recommend them for both private dog walking and group dog walking services. The team is especially qualified even if you have rescue dogs with complicated or unknown backgrounds.
Doggy Lama is my vote for the best small business in the Bay Area. This is not hyperbole! They are reliable, transparent, informative, and caring. We feel so comfortable with them, and often lean on their guidance and advice for taking care of our dog Rory. Our walker Jeysi feels like a member of the family. Every weekday she reliably arrives at our home, Rory runs to greet her, and off they goes with a pack of 5-7 dogs on a beautiful East Bay trail. A few hours later Rory comes home happy and tired. And then Jeysi sends us a written summary along with beautiful photos and videos from the day. It seems like such a fun pack. We're so, so grateful for Jeysi. Attaching just one pic here. But I have about 8,000,000 others that are equally frame worthy!
I absolutely love Doggy Lama Pet Care!. My dog walker, Sophie, is the best!. Always let's me know when she is arriving and coming home with my 🐶, Grace. Sends pictures of her hiking adventures. 100% Great Review! …
Molly and her team at Doggy Lama are the best! Our dog Toby always returns from his off-leash walks with Jordan having had lots of fun with his pack buds and tuckered out. It’s been a huge relief to know Toby is getting the exercise and stimulation he needs, especially during the work week when we can’t provide that for him to this level. This team is also amazing at communication, from day-of logistics to general awareness of seasonal considerations on the trail.
My dog loves Doggy Lama! She cannot wait for them to pick her up and is always exhausted and happy when they bring her home. She has totally bonded with Vanessa and Merrigold. I appreciate their communication and professionalism. and the photos.
Everyone at Doggy Lama has been so good to my pup, Rosie, since I adopted her over a year ago. Rosie has arthritis so Dorothy takes her to the park to sniff about at her own pace or just lay in the sun. It's clear that she loves her time with Dorothy because she always comes home with a huge smile on her face! Kendrae is super communicative and responsive around scheduling, too. Highly recommended!!
Kasper and I we both LOVE Doggy Lama; obviously for different reasons - Kasper loves the walks, treats and keeping his brain working while practicing recall on every walk. I love it that the Doggy Lama team is super reliable and feels like extended family. After I broke my foot they were able to immediately schedule Kasper for walks every day so I was able to rest. Thank you Team!

Sue is a fantastic dog walker! Her professionalism shines through in every interaction. She's always agreeable and truly cares for my dog Cooper. I love that he comes back home tired, relaxed, and happy after each walk. Couldn't ask for a better caregiver for my furry friend!
Sue has been walking and boarding our rambunctious pup for more than two years, and we feel lucky to have found her. Reliable, flexible and loving to our dog who starts howling for Sue as soon as her car arrives. Thank you, Sue!
I feel very lucky to have found Sue. She is kind , flexible and communicative. My dog absolutely loves her and returns happy and tired when she’s been out with Sue. Sue goes above and beyond to make sure that your dog is well taken care of and safe. I trust her completely with my pup. She is very easy to work with and is a wonderful person.
Sue started walking our dogs when we made the crazy decision to add a new puppy to our family. Our older, 10 year old dog was a strong alpha female who was very particular and our new puppy was a wiggling ball of energy. Sue was amazing with both of them. When we first met Sue, the intake interview she did with us to get to know our dogs put the interviews we had with potential nanny's for our daughter to shame. She took time to really get to know us and our dogs and figure out how to keep everyone happy. Her patience was endless - from dealing with our puppy submitting to others and peeing in her car to accommodating our older dog by ensuring that she had a private place to sit up front in the car. Sue was consistent and reliable and we always knew our dogs would be well cared for. Our dogs loved her and ran to the door any time she arrived. Sue went above and beyond the call of duty and always returned us tired, happy dogs. We brought Sue on when we had a full house with a puppy and a young child and were crushed to leave her when we moved 4 years later. I have since highly recommended her to other friends in the area who have loved working with her. The care she provided to our furry family members was outstanding!
Sue is simply the best! She's been taking care of my big, 10 year old guy, Jonah, for a little over a year now and I have complete trust in her when he is with her. You can tell Sue truly loves animals, has years of experience and she is super communicative. She is super flexible with my schedule and I know Jonah is in great hands when he is with Sue! Highly recommend.
Sue provides a super professional and trustworthy service. It is nice knowing our dog is in safe hands as well as getting a quality dog walk and play session. Our dog loves Sue and looks forward to his weekly walks with her!
Sue has been part of our family ever since our husky was a pup of about 1.5 years old, and she is now 12. She has been a second mommy to our girl and helped us raise her. She is very attuned to her pack, and has always let us know if our girl has been acting out of sorts and alerted us to any concerns. She has always been very flexible with scheduling, and always provides ample notice for time off. If you are looking for someone that will care for your pup as if they were her own, then Sue is your person. I enthusiastically endorse her and would highly recommend her if you need someone to keep your pup company during the day.
Sue easily handles our rambunctious 80 lb ball of energy. Chula is so happy to see Sue that we fear for innocent victims of her tail wagging! Sue is a very trustworthy and competent dog walker who makes the outing fun for the whole crew. Highly recommended!
Sue clearly put the animals in her care at a priority. They come first in her eyes and that is reassuring for any owner. We have been working with Wag N Wheel for over three years now, our dogs love their walks with Sue and it's great to know that additional services like pack walks and boarding care are available if/when needed.
We love Sue! We don't know what we would do without her!

Tim Corbett has been walking our dogs for over 15 years. He is extremely caring, consistent and trustworthy. Our dogs have loved him and enjoy being part of his doggy community of friends. I would recommend Tim highly.
Tim understands dogs and their behavior ! He us Very respectful of owners wishes and concerns . Tim is most accommodating with our ever changing schedule as well. A more empathetic and kind person, would be difficult to find. A true Professional!
Tim is absolutely the best! He is truly the “Leader of the Pack.” The dogs love him, and as all dog lovers know, dogs know best. Our dog waits at the door for Tim to arrive each day with his tail wagging behind him. I don’t think it is possible to find a more caring or responsible dog walker than Tim. We are SO fortunate to have him. I give Tim my strongest recommendation without any hesitation at all.
Tim is the most reliable and wonderful doggie-walker a person could ask for! Always on time to pick up, very responsive to texts and instructions, and most importantly, our sweet pup comes home exercised and so happy! Our dog loves when she hears the door open and it's Tim- he is the the absolute best :)
Leader of The Pack Dog Walking – 5 STARS Tim, at Leader of the Pack Dog Walking Service, has been walking our dogs in San Francisco for over decade and he is amazing! Tim does so much more than just walk our dogs; he is responsible, cares for their well-being and always keeps us updated on how our nine rescue Scotties over the years have done on their daily walks. Do our dogs like going for their daily walks with Tim? Well actions speak louder than words (or barks) at their regular walk time, they do always know when Tim is coming, and they anxiously wait for him at the front door with tails wagging. At the end of their walks, they always arrive home with a smile on their face. In addition, Tim gives us an update on how each of our dogs did on their walk, and if we are not home, he leaves us a short note on the dogs walking adventures. Professionally you could not find a better dog walker. Tim cares about our dogs and us as dog owners. We give Leader of the Pack Dog Walking our highest rating as we feel so comfortable knowing that our dogs are in great hands when they are with Tim, The Leader of the Pack.
Tim connected right away with our 8 year old Cavalier King Charles Spaniel (Cookie) and has a 6th sense when it comes to understanding the needs of dogs. He has been walking Cookie 3 times a week for almost 6 months now. We love that he also teaches urban etiquette, and Cookie has been better about responding to commands since walking with Tim. Tim is always upbeat, flexible and on-time. He has communicated a lot of helpful insights about Cookie's behavior. The whole experience has been wonderful for everyone, especially for Cookie.
Tim Corbett of Leader of the Pack has walked our dogs since 1994 when he was recommended to us by volunteer walkers with the San Francisco SPCA. He is dependable and very reliable. Our dogs are always anxious to go with him for their walks. Neighbors have commented on how focused he is on the dogs in his care.
Tim Corbett and his “Leader of the Pack” dog walking service are definitely a 5 out of 5 Stars! Tim realizes that a dog is part of your “family” and treats them with the love and kindness they deserve. He is trustworthy and reliable…..I would definitely recommend his service & see how much your dog loves being part of the “Pack”. Shawn H-
Leader of the Pack. I’m very happy to have Tim move his business to our area. Tim was unable to walk our old dog, Cooper, because he was not servicing the east bay at that time. But he did take time out of his busy schedule to help diagnose Cooper’s “dog” aggression issues, as well as leash pulling problem. We just got our new pup, and we will look to have Tim walk her.
Tim is a fantastic dog walker who has been walking my dogs for over 10 years. He is kind, responsive and reliable. My dogs love him and get a great workout!

Artie does such a good job with my Fur babies babies. I would recommend him to anybody hes trustworthy easy going and knows how to work with animals. He also loves his job You can tell by how he is excited to meet you and him and the animals. He goes above and beyond what most other pet sitters and walkers do you can't go wrong with booking with him. He sends pictures and texts updates of what's going on to keep you included which is a plus.
Art has been working with our dog, George, for the past few weeks and has quickly become a favorite. Our dog, who is usually shy around new people, took to Art almost immediately. Art's natural rapport with animals is evident and genuinely impressive. It's a joy to see how excited George gets whenever Art comes by. His gentle approach and ability to connect with George are greatly appreciated. We feel fortunate to have found someone who is so reliable, caring, and dedicated. Highly recommend Art to anyone looking for a fantastic dog walker.
He was great! Super friendly and despite my dog being usually very energetic he said she was mellow for him, which in my mind is a testament to his skill with animals. She had a great time and despite having a very long drive after she slept the whole way:) (pictures are ones he sent me while watching her, which I appreciated!)
We trust Art with all our fur babies! A 60 lb dog and 2 kitties. He’s our regular weekly walker ever since we met him in 2020 and saw how wonderfully he cares for animals. Great house sitter, too. I highly recommend Art!
Art is so amazing! He has such a bright and positive disposition! The dogs are always so happy and excited to see him! Art isn't just a dog walker, he truly loves and cares for them like they were his own. That means so much for a dog Mom who is overprotective of her fur babies! I know I can trust Art. He takes them on long walks and fun outdoor adventures! They love him so much. Art has become a part of our family. Personally I wouldn't trust anyone else with my fur babies. He is such a HUGE help to me! He always goes above and beyond! I couldn't ask for anyone better!
Art is wonderful! I was very happy that my dog, Taz, instantly liked Art; and Art was able to include Taz into the group on the first day! He sent me several pictures, so that I could see that all went well, and Taz was having a marvelous time! So now Taz goes for a walk with Art every week. Anyone looking for a dog walker can not do better than Art!
Art was excellent at being a dog care taker. He's definitely a natural with animals. I'd definitely recommend him to others. I don't need to look any further... All around good guy.
Artie is a great dog walker and caretaker.He gets the job done and really loves what he does. He keeps you updated and in the loop so you feel like you're there with them. He works so my dog didn't pull on the leash anymore. Thanks so much for your selfless srvice its much appreciated rarity these days.
Art is very responsible and caring towards his clients. He takes really good care of them and most importantly, they have fun every time! Be prepared for your four-legged fur-babies to have a blast!

Kaity and Tim have dropped in on our cats many times. They were able to keep up with a 15 pill a day medication regimen that one of my cats needed. They’re thorough and communicative.
Kaity and Tim have been watching my cats for years. They're thoughtful, reliable, and great communicators. Not to mention they love animals, my cats are always so well taken care of when I get home. They've even been kind enough to water my plants when I'm gone for a long time! I'd recommend fuzzy britches to anyone needing a pet sitter.
Hired them to feed my pet twice a day. Paid for each visit. Told them I had a camera. Camera showed they only came once a day. Not trustworthy people.

I’ve been taking Wolfie to JustPetMe since early this year, and he absolutely loves it. He gets so excited every time we pass by or stop in, especially when he sees the friendly staff (he’s especially fond of the blonde lady!sorry I don’t know her name). JustPetMe may not have extras like webcams or 24/7 drop-off, but the care they provide is exceptional. Wolfie always comes home happy and tired from all the playtime. I recently tried a more convenient place after relocating, but his reaction to JustPetMe is completely different. I’ll definitely be bringing him back for longer stays. Highly recommend—just visit, and you’ll see why!
I’ve enjoyed bringing my pup here for the last few years. Whether a long daycare day, or boarding when I’m out of town, I have trusted the care provided to my pup. My experience this past weekend though will ensure I never bring Goldie back here. I planned to leave her for the day and later decided overnight due to an emergency that arose for me. I hadn’t dropped off food though and couldn’t get back by closing to drop off. I spoke twice communicating with the staff member(blonde woman w/ European accent) about the issue. She offered “house kibble” which I declined knowing my pups sensitive stomach issues. I asked if I could have Instacart deliver my pups special food and was told no, and then had my best friend come to pick her up and unfortunately they got there 4mins after closing and again told no. I was still understanding and willing to give the benefit of the doubt, nor did I fault their level of inflexibility on these 2 options. I told her that my child would only at this point miss 2 cups of food for the day, that she would be fine not eating, and that I’d be there right at opening to drop it off. Despite being told not to give their house kibble this woman took it upon herself to decide what was best for my child and fed her the kibble anyway. I am livid that my pup is now experiencing diarrhea and discomfort all because this woman thought she knew better how to care for my pup than I have for her last 4 years of her life. I’m praying these GI issues will resolve without a trip to our vet. We won’t be back!
I was a fan of this place however recently there have been issues: lack of communication, billing issues, cleanliness (the lobby reeks horribly of urine). Finally, my dog has been sick since her last visit. At this point, the cause is unknown but she was fine before she was dropped off at daycare. Through a televisit with a veterinarian, the initial diagnosis is that she may have picked up a respiratory infection from another animal at the daycare as that was her only exposure to other dogs. Hopefully they will do better.
Me and my girl love Just Pet Me! Very reasonable price for the monthly daycare. The people there are great and Misty always came home wagging her tail. Easy drop off and pick up and I feel like the people that work there really knew and loved my pup.
They removed my previous review…. Our dog came home bleeding from his genitals. When we asked about it they told us “it’s probably from all the poop he was eating.” What???? Isn’t that your job to stop that??? Luckily our bank disputed the charge and we got the money back from these fools to cover the very expensive vet bills. Although they of course told us we were “just trying to get out of paying.” Which they were right! We do not want to pay for their inability to care for animals. Save yourself the trouble and go elsewhere!!!
They always take great care of Cypress, my 12yr old GSD. Been taking her here for years. ❤️
My pup loves this place. I am pretty sure she would rather live at Just Pet Me than with me. When I stop to drop her off, she gets absolutely nuts because she is so excited to be at Just Pet Me. Then when I pick her up and put her in the car, she longingly says goodbye to the staff when I drive away. The whole staff is very caring and they work so hard to make sure our pups are well taken care of.
I’m furious and hurt that this place had my puppy Yorkie in a dark room by himself. As I’m giving you all heads up to Not trust this place . As the 2 girls that work there would Drag my small puppy in and the other girl with the strong accent put my puppy in the dark room with No light rhe WHOLE DAY because my puppy did not know how to play with the dogs because he was all to himself. Why would they do this to my puppy BECAUSE HE STAYED TO HIMSELF . No Excuses at all . NO EXCUSE AT ALL as I was wondering why my pup was not himself all wk the last time I left him
I never have to worry with Just Pet Me. I needed a daycare that my pup would love and that would be available. Just Pet Me is just that. They are open every single day for drop off. If I have to work late, I do not have to worry about rushing home because when I get there at night Alina will always say "I fed him dinner for you." If I work on the weekends or have a project, I can drop him off and Tiffany will make sure he has fun all day. Check the Instagram page. My pup loves Brenda so much that he scratches at the door to get in. And if I have a big project or have to go out of town, I just board him overnight. Since he goes to daycare there, he is always right at home. The unlimited daycare package is very reasonable. The owner, Julie, is amazing. Why leave my dog at home when he can be playing outside all day with a bunch of dogs, eating, and running around. I have never seen a dog dropped off that was scared or afraid to go in. That is the one things that stood out to me. EVERY dog is excited to get dropped off. Amazing staff and will rid you of any worry about your fur baby so you can focus on work while you are away for the day.
The entire staff is so kind and welcoming! I tried another daycare and my dog didn’t take to it, but he has been happy since day 1 at Just Pet Me. I could never meet the needs of my very social and active dog without this wonderful place!

Without hesitation I recommend Oakland Pet Care to take care of your furry loved ones. Our dog has thrived on their daily pack walks. As a young high energy dog, our pup has greatly benefited from OPC's talented walkers who have helped him build confidence, gain positive social skills, and get some of that energy out. Going on pack walks is the highlight of our dogs day!
My dogs favorite part of the day is her hike with Olivia. We're working from home but it's really nice to have the dog gone for 2-2.5 hours and she comes back super happy and tired. Plus she's learned some new tricks and is much better off leash with us. She also lost some weight
Delia and the crew at Oakland Pet Care took care of our dog like family. One of the saddest parts of moving was that Ada would miss out on her pack walk. Great service. Really professional and responsive. Can't recommend highly enough!
Wonderful team here, they really love your pet like their own.

Pam has taken excellent care of our two kittens/cats over the past two years. Pam and her team are very personable and attentive, and they clearly love their visitors. The accomodations are clean and comfortable, well-lit, and the windows have great views of trees, bird feeders, and more. Pam sends regular updates and pictures, and is happy to answer any question. Our cats have always come home comfortable and relaxed; obviously well taken care of. We highly recommend Pam and Critter Pet Care for all boarding needs!
🐾 I highly recommend Critter Pet Care. My cat has special needs and they treated him like a 🤴. They knew I was anxious about leaving him and kept me updated daily and even sent pictures. The little 🐈 house has AC and is set up very nicely specifically for kitties.😻 The owner is easy to work with and very accommodating. They take care of 🐕 as well.
I am so happy I found Pam! I met her when I was moving and also going on a trip, meaning maximum cat-life interruption and I was super stressed about how it would all go. She was totally communicative and reassuring while I was away, sending pictures of obviously-happy cats. She has also helped with vet visits and advice. It is so great to work with someone who cares about your animals as much as you do (and knows so much more). My only reservation is about spreading the word so that she might be hard to book! But she deserves recognition for providing such an outstanding and important service.
We had been planning a trip of a lifetime - 7 weeks abroad - and one of the most important things was also one of the hardest things to do and that was to ensure our 1-year old sibling cats, Daisy & Spunky, would be in a secure and caring environment while we were away from home. We found there are many places that board cats in “2’Wx2D’x2H’” stainless steel kennels with 1 or possibly 2 hours of daily “out of the kennel” play time. Although they may be clean and secure, that type of a “confined” environment would have been difficult for our cats to endure even if just for a weekend (especially for Spunky who is very sociable and inquisitive); 7 weeks would have been grueling for them. They would probably be wondering, “what did we do to be abandoned like this?”. Thank goodness we found Pam & Critter Pet Care! The design of the cat house is wonderful and the size and multi-level layout of the kennels, some of which could also be expanded to double wide for bonded pairs like ours, allows cats to “hunker in” and feel secluded, or to peek out through their window for watching birds at the bird feeders outdoors. Cats also get to explore and commingle or just chill in the common areas, or they can trek/jump up to the many perches mounted high along the walls of the cat house. We missed our cats to pieces but really appreciated how Pam automatically kept us updated with photos and info about what they were doing throughout our 7-week trip. It gave us great peace of mind and our reunion confirmed how well they were cared for during their stay. We will not hesitate to leave our beloved Daisy and Spunky in Pam’s care the next time we plan a vacation or require boarding services. Thank you very much, Pam, for providing such an important service, a cozy and engaging boarding environment, and for truly caring about the well-being of our pets. . . you’re the best!
I cannot recommend Pam highly enough for anyone with a pet. I hated to leave my old dog, recovering from an illness, with anyone, but she had come recommended for her transparency. Pam went above and beyond making my dog comfortable and cared for when I had to leave town. When i found I couldn’t get home when I had hoped, she made it work to keep watching him even though his care needs were more than we expected. She let me know how he was doing every day, and was incredibly kind. Pam will always be my first choice for someone to care for my pet.
Critter Pet Care takes excellent care to set an environment that allows the cats to feel at home and loved and for cat parents to feel completely at ease for their care. Pam and her staff are absolutely intuitive in their care for pets. She's personally taught me so much about cat behavior and how to be a better cat companion as a newer pet parent. Thank you for always offering a wonderful home away from home for my cats!
Pam is very professional and knows how to handle both cats and dogs. I had left my two cats with her for a day. She has a very good set up where our cats could feel at home. The cages were set up in such a way that the cats could also look outside at the world or lie in a secluded spot if they wanted. There was even a bird feeder right outside the window, to keep the cats entertained. I definitely recommend her place if you want your cats taken care of while you are on vacation.
Pam is incredible! My rescue pup was isolated for many years and after only a few weeks at daycare, he was much more sociable and calm. He has separation anxiety and has a really hard time being alone, so Pam has been a godsend since I found her about a year ago. She takes really good care of my pup and updates me with pictures and status, which is nice while I'm at work. She is super flexible with drop off/pick up times and always responsive. It's amazing how she is able to socialize dogs with cats, dogs with each others, etc. Also, the backyard is amazing! Huge and lots of room for dogs to play. My pup can't wait to get out there and run around:) Highly recommend Critter Pet Care, Pam is truly a lifesaver.
Pam is a great person, she is extremely responsive, caring and knowledgeable. This place inspires trust! We lodged our dog and cat during one week and they both had a very good time under their care. Pam took me home with my pets the day we checked out because there were no Uber or Lyft drivers available. It was so sweet and kind of her! I would highly recommend this place for cats and dogs. Expect questions about your pet’s health, behavior and a meeting session for dogs.
Pam at Critter Pet Care has been doing a great job for myself and my furry family members. We like to call her Auntie Pam, and she is like a second mother to my young kitties. Along with all of the regular responsibilities of taking care of food, water and litter cleaning, Pam also plays regularly with them (has even bought them some really fun toys and treats), brushes them, and also sends me photos and regular updates when I'm away. She is also willing to water my outdoor patio plants and she brings in the mail. I can be easy in my mind knowing that all will be well at home when I have to be away. Booking and communication has always been easy. I really like using her online portal where I can book and confirm upcoming visits. Finally, when I have last minute changes to my schedule and need to add or cancel visits, she is always willing to accommodate. We are so lucky to have found her and truly appreciate her wonderful care and service!
