Alex did a great job with my pup. He was on time and was an excellent handler of my dog that can be a little standoffish at times.

I can t say enough good things about Maylani! My dog Lola is usually very timid and doesn t let just anyone walk her, but she warmed up to Maylani, which was such a relief. Maylani was incredibly understanding of Lola s needs and did an amazing job taking care of her. She also followed the notes I left perfectly, which made me feel so confident in her care. I would absolutely book her again!

Bark and Whine Ball
Most gala fundraisers for animal rescue organizations don’t let you bring your pup along — but this one does! The annual Bark and Whine Ball, held each November at the San Francisco Design Center Galleria, benefits a number of animal-based non-profits in the local area. With your furry friend at your feet, you can walk the red carpet, pose for the pup-arazzi, and then get ready for a glamorous evening of socializing. There’s scrumptious food, top-shelf wines, live music, contests, and an auction. And with proceeds benefiting a host of awesome rescues, there’s no reason not to let your hair down and have a grrr-eat time!

Bay Area Pet Fair
With a mission to help thousands of homeless pets find their forever homes, the Bay Area Pet Fair is the largest pet adoption event in California! More than 70 rescues and shelters will be in attendance, with a huge range of adorable fluffballs looking for loving, devoted owners. But there are heaps more to do if you’re not looking to adopt a pet, with hours of fun for the whole family (including leashed pets). There are live shows and demos, stacks of pup-friendly activities, prizes, giveaways, and heaps of free samples for your pooch. Admission and parking are free, so head on down to the Alameda County Fairgrounds to join in the fun!
