Proactive Care Guided by Local Intel

Testimonials from Your Neighbors: Redwood City Clients

We recently relocated from another state, and needed occasional drop-in visits for our dog, Kai. We've used a dog-sitting app over the years but have had some bad experiences, so I thought I'd try a local company. STB has been great in getting us scheduled, are super responsive, follow directions, and send pictures. The app they use makes communication and scheduling easy and keeps everything in one place. We definitely plan to continue using Simply The Best and recommend them to others.

Cannot say enough good things about this whole team! With a new puppy at home, keeping a routine in his training when I went back to office was so important so I found Simply the Best on Nextdoor and am soooo thankful. Everything from communication, scheduling, and care for my dogs has been above and beyond. So glad there are trustworthy and quality pet care givers out there 🥳
Gina Del Vecchio & Louie and Lola

I have been using Simply The Best Pet Care since their beginning and have nothing but great things to say. I have had several of their experienced pet sitters come through and they take loving care of my cat, follow instructions closely, and are very communicative with daily pictures and updates. Booking requests are always addressed promptly and professionally. Highly recommend!

We're the Redwood City dog walking and pet sitting experts. We specialize in private, 1:1 dog walking in your neighborhood, ensuring a safe, tailored experience for your pup. We also offer pet sitting (drop-in visits) for dogs, cats, and small animals that includes feeding, watering, litter/potty break, and basic household tasks to maintain your home while you're away.

To ensure your pets stay in their most comfortable and familiar environment, we specialize in private dog walking and in-home pet sitting (drop-in visits).

We do not offer boarding at a facility or overnight stays in your home, but our extended drop-in visits are a great alternative for pets who need extra company during the day or evening!

The safety of your home and pets is our top priority. All our team members are thoroughly vetted, background-checked, and highly trained. We are also fully insured and bonded. You’ll have the chance to meet a member of our team during our complimentary Meet & Greet so you can feel 100% confident.

Our team-based approach means you're never scrambling to find a replacement. When you work with solo sitters, if they get sick, go out of town, are fully booked, or otherwise become unavailable, you're left in a lurch finding a replacement. We eliminate that worry: our incredible team members are all highly trained and can all work successfully with your pet, ensuring you a spot on our calendar at all times.

We use a tech-forward approach to pet care. After every visit, you’ll receive a real-time update through our app, Time to Pet, including a detailed visit update and photos of your pet. Our post-visit updates include a summary of our time with your pet and alert you of any health or behavioral changes. We'll never leave you guessing!

Getting started is easy! You can schedule a complimentary Meet & Greet through our website. This allows us to meet you and your pet, learn their routine, and ensure we’re the perfect fit for your needs. Your time is valuable: rest assured that our onboarding process is quick but thorough. We can get you on the calendar in as little as 24 hours!
