She is incredibly easy to coordinate with, flexible when plans change, and always dependable. You never have to think twice. Our dog absolutely adores her. He gets so excited when she arrives and always comes back happy and calm. It is clear how much he enjoys being around her, and how much she cares about him. She has also stayed with him several times while we were away, and we always felt completely at ease knowing he was with her. She kept us updated and handled everything seamlessly. Finding someone you trust with your dog is not easy, and Jes is that person for us. We are so grateful for everything she has done.

If you're looking for a dog walking angel in SF, me and my fiance whole heartedly recommend Jessica…read morefor your dog walking needs! We were referred to Jessica by a dog walking associate of hers when we first moved to the Bay Area from DC. We have a 2.5yr old lab mix, Kai, and since he's bigger than most dogs in the city (70lbs - typical lab size), a lot of day-cares & walkers never got back to us since 40lb dogs seem to be the norm here in SF. Not Jessica! She arranged a way to meet us at home to meet Kai & instantly Kai was taken with her. Now Jessica has been our dog walker for about a year & we don't know what we'd do without her. Kai gets group walks 2x a week with his pack & always comes home happy and tired. He can barely wait to get out the door when Jessica arrives to pick him up. Kai loves to run & Jessica takes him to all the fun spots and lets him get his zoomies out. I never have to worry about Kai's safety as Jessica keeps us updated through texts/pictures for every walk. The pictures are literally the best pick me up when we're getting thru a long day at work! If your pup needs walks & pack socialization, definitely give Jessica a call!

We hired Colleen for 2 weeks of cat sitting for our two cats. During that time, Colleen was a…read moregodsend - and I recommend her to anyone who wants quality care for their animals. Our 22 year old cat was slowly declining and we were unsure how to handle his needs - he needed periodic SC fluids injected - while we were away on our long-scheduled 2 week vacation. It was a challenging situation and Colleen came to the rescue - handled injection procedure with complete professionalism - and showed great sensitivity to our cat's special situation. Sadly (but not surprisingly) our sweet old guy died while we were away. Colleen was incredibly kind to us as we absorbed this news, and followed all of our wishes to the letter. She took his body to the cremation center and handled this loss for our family with great grace. Her tenderness and solidness during this time speaks to her capacity for real care. Our other cat, a younger, relational and attention-seeking kitty, was incredibly well cared for in our absence. Colleen texted us an update at every visit - and was loving, responsive, and attentive to both physical and emotional animal needs.

Shae is truly a miracle worker and the most knowledgeable dog trainer!…read more I recently adopted a dog through a rescue. I wanted to set myself up for success, and I sought Shae's services right away. Within the first few minutes of meeting our dog, Shae immediately had a good assessment of our dog's personality and had her complete attention. Shae gave us so many helpful tips to improve the relationship and training of our dog. It's only been 3 months with our new dog, and every week we've seen such a huge improvement in her behavior, and it's all thanks to Shae. It's so clear that Shae loves dogs and is passionate about training them. Don't wait one second and book a session with Shae. Your life and relationship with your dog will change for the better!

Let me start by saying that I absolutely hate leaving anyone a crappy review. And I wish I'd been…read moreable to actually review this service, but we weren't given an opportunity to even get that far. After our regular catsitter was unavailable, my boyfriend and I started shopping around to see what some other folks in the area might charge. Dawn was only slightly cheaper than another service, so via email we set up a time to meet her, introduce her to the cat, show her around our place and give her a set of keys, on a Thursday at 7pm. Well, that Thursday our meeting time of 7pm came and went. No sign of Dawn, no call, no email. At around 7:30 I emailed her asking her to check in and let us know if she wasn't coming at all so that we could make other arrangements. 8pm, I get an email from her letting us know that she was at a birthday party, and could come right over. Then a slurred voicemail from her letting us know that it was HER birthday party at a bar nearby, and that she lost track of time. Ummmm..... seriously? Why would you schedule a meeting on the same night as your birthday party when you were out getting sloshed? And how could anyone think it was reasonable to be an hour late with zero contact and then be able to waltz into someone's home and get a set of keys? After a quick reply email to let her know not to bother, we called another sitter back, who was luckily able to squeeze an initial meeting in for us the next morning, which was inconvenient for both of us, but necessary if we wanted someone to be checking in on the cat. From the other reviews Dawn has here, it is obvious that when she chooses to do her job well she can provide a great service, but as a former petsitter myself I just can't fathom the thought process that justified to her that it was OK to leave potential clients high and dry like that.

She is caring and trustworthy, and definitely goes the extra mile. I was having trouble finding appropriate food my diabetic cat would like, and Dawn Michelle brought food for the kitty to try, which he likes quite a bit.

I have had to be out of town a lot in the past year, to take care of family in another state, and Dawn Michelle has always been available and accomodating to my hectic schedule. I feel sorry to have to leave my cats so often, but am comforted to know that they are in good hands.
