Update for 2026. We got an email from Ed & Alex in January 2026 that they will no longer be…read moreoffering cat sitting services going forward and have shifted exclusively to dog sitting/walking. We are grateful for their service while they offered it for kitties, and are very sad that they will not be able to care for our cats anymore. We wish them all the best on their business going forward! Thank you again Ed and Alex.

Retroactively writing a review for Ed and Alexandra given that they no longer offer cat sitting…read moreservices. We have four Ragdolls and used Ed and Alexandra for about two and a half years any time we were going on vacation. It is so clear from our interactions with Ed that he loves animals, and our cats also grew fond of him. He always sent pictures and was extremely thorough detailing what was done during the visits and keeping us updated. We even had an instance where we needed him to assist with a virtual vet consult while we were away and one of our pets got sick, so they really went above and beyond. Rest assured that you can trust Ed and Alexandra with your pets and your home!

I have so many selfish reasons to not share this review and make Kim even more busy than she…read morealready is. But my goodness! She is a miracle worker. She took our sweet, shy, overly anxious little pup and made him feel at home within a short son of three weeks (2-3 times exposure for day care) before we let him stay overnight. She has been a godsend and I know that I can rest easy when our little fur baby is in her good hands.

When I used this service: March 1-5 Why I chose Bowser's: I…read moredid 1-2 hours of research: Yelp reviews, calling friends from the dog park/other contacts, etc., and Kim always came highly recommended. Matt from Pawfection told me he refers all his clients to her who are looking for longer pet sitting, and no one has come back disappointed. Overall impression: I cannot speak more highly of Kimberley and Bowser's Buddy Pet Care! She was extremely professional and accommodating and made me feel like part of the Bowser's family from day one! More details: Kimberley is the epitome of professionalism. I really appreciated how she: - validated my sad feelings that I couldn't take him on the trip - had me over the weekend before my trip to see her space and meet the other dogs she was currently taking care of - was in constant contact about times/dates and how my dog Reeses was doing while I was gone - communicated (quickly) with me whenever I sent her a text message or gave her a call - loves my dog like her own (and he loves her back!) Pro-tip: Kim's place is dog HEAVEN. Very dog-friendly and lots of things to keep them entertained and comfortable: doggy door, fenced-in grassy yard, orthopedic beds, etc. etc. She doesn't give discounts, but it's totally worth the price, and that's coming from a med student in tons of debt currently!

We had such a great experience with Dog Duty in Campbell! Catalina, the owner, was incredibly…read morehelpful and accommodating, she made a last-minute weekend dog-sitting request happen with ease. Our dog's caregiver, Diane, was absolutely amazing! She sent regular updates and adorable pictures throughout the weekend, which gave us such peace of mind. It's clear that the Dog Duty team truly cares about the pets they look after. We will 1,000% be using Dog Duty for all our future pet-sitting needs! Highly recommend!

I think the sign of a good business, at least one that looks after their customers, is the owner's…read moretrue passion shown towards their work. In this case, the passion is directed toward the animals for which Catalina cares. A massive amount of trust is necessary, at least for me, in order to leave my beloved animals with someone and I do this with ease knowing that Dog Duty will not only care for my animals but also show them love and affection whilst I travel. I have 5 cats and a dog and have no worry leaving them with Catalina for weeks at a time, due to work. I personally recommend them to anyone looking for not just care for their animals but the peace of mind that they pets will be loved and cared for. Additionally, and perhaps equally as important, Catalina is a great communicator and leaves you with no concern about what's happening back home when you're away. I love working with her and am truly grateful to have found such a good pet sitter.

When I had cancer and needed extra help, Jen made me feel like she had me covered. Linus has liked every one of his walkers over the years, and I've trusted them all with my dog. Linus used to be dog reactive, and still wants to chase cats, and everyone has handled him with professionalism and competence. Highly recommend JDWS.

I never worry when Gus and Granger are out with Jen and her team; they take care of our babies like they're their own. I appreciate the communication and flexibility that Jen provides. We always get updates and great photos and videos. We have demanding jobs and 3 teens in the house so we sometimes have last minute additions. They ALWAYS figure out a way to help us. I feel so thankful to have found Jen and her team. I would recommend them to anyone looking for someone to help get their dogs out!

I trusted them completely with access to my home and caring for my dog. They are kind, reliable people who truly care about animals. I highly recommend their pet walking services in the South San Jose area.

I seriously can't recommend Michelle enough. Let me tell you why…read more I was having my neighbor check in on my dogs while I was out of town, but my pups really missed us and began barking every minute of the day from sunrise to 1am. Desperate to get my pups more calm and my neighbors more sleep, I contacted Michelle to see if she could come by to walk my babies each day until I came back, which was a huge ask since she didn't meet my dogs or meet me! However, she was so flexible and made it happen. I have one pup that Is SOOO scared of people and won't walk even when other people try to walk her so I was nervous she wasn't gonna walk (or that she would bite Michelle for trying to put on her harness). But Michelle was so professional and spent extra time calming them to get them out on their walk. By the second day, my doggies knew Michelle and allowed her to walk them. On top of that, I kinda messed up a couple times with scheduling and Michelle was really patient and understanding with me . I really appreciate business owners like Michelle and would recommend her to everyone. 10/10

I was a little skittish trying out this new pet sitting service for my cats but I was pleasantly…read moresurprised and very satisfied. I would give them a 100 stars if I can. Kenya and her crew are so wonderful and they did a great job caring for my cats while I was away. They keep me posted with detail reports every visit.
