I have been a customer of Dirty Paws for over 13 years and have been super happy with all aspects of their service. Kenya and her team are excellent with dogs and very knowledgeable about their care and needs.

Whenever my dogs are with Dirty Paws, I can relax and know they are receiving the best care available. My dogs love Kenya and her team and are always excited to see them. I recommend Dirty Paws wholeheartedly.

What Our San Jose Clients Are Saying…

We have been happily using dirty paws several times a year since adopting our cat (Pebbles) in 2016. Kenya and Elizabeth most often visit with Pebbles daily when we are away. They are fantastic! Pebbles always enjoys her visit with lots of cuddles, playing and food. We especially enjoy the daily updates with the cutest pictures. We can schedule easily through the app and we pay by Venmo. We highly recommend dirty paws!!

My husband and I needed to find someone to care for our two cats while we were both away on business. Dirty Paws exceeded our expectations with easy scheduling, great communication and, most importantly, excellent pet care. Kenya was fantastic and went above and beyond by sending pictures of our cats with each visit report. We will definitely book with Dirty Paws again!

I highly recommend Dirty Paws pet sitting as a top-notch service for your furry babies. As a satisfied customer for nearly a year, I can attest to the exceptional care they provide. Their team regularly sends me detailed reports and adorable pictures of my pups, which is far superior to leaving them at a boarding facility. Give them a try, you won’t be disappointed.

Kenya and team are the best. My pup Jim enjoyed two weeks of overnight boarding with Kenya and she provided really amazing care for him. It was easy to confirm via Kenya’s regular photo and video updates that Jim enjoyed a stress-free stay that was filled with great fun, exercise, and lots of snuggle sessions!

I could not have asked for a better experience with Dirty Paws, and will continue to support this local San Jose gem.

Kenya and team at Dirty Paws Pet Sitting will go above and beyond to take care of your pets as if they are family. I have used several different pet sitting services in the past, and none of them compare to Dirty Paws. The communication and care is top notch. I was never worried about my dogs and knew that they were getting excellent attention and love while I was out of town.

Kenya and the Dirty Paws team are great! We can leave town with peace of mind knowing that our pets will be cared for by responsible, experienced animal lovers who send us delightful pics. One of our cats requires meds and Kenya always makes sure that she is clear on exactly how and when to give them. She’s also a great communicator, and gets back to me quickly via text or phone. I recommend Kenya and her team without hesitation.

I have used the team at Dirty Paws several times now. They always do a great job looking after my 3 cats, providing excellent communication and bring very well organized with how they complete all the requested tasks (feed cats, empty litter boxes, search for and clean up “accidents”). My cats are very shy, but have warmed up to the pet sitters they employ. Happy customer – will continue working with them for many years to come

The team at Dirty Paws are great, I would recommend to anyone with pets. Over the years we have had Kenya, Elizabeth, and Madi look after our cats. The online portal to schedule is easy to use that have put myself and my wife at ease that our cats have the best care when we aren’t around. In addition to the daily updates with many pictures they have administered drugs to our pets, brought in packages, dealt with low battery smoke detectors and taken care of many many cat accidents but always without any issues and always with clear communication.

I cannot recommend Dirty Paws enough! Leo’s walkers for two years, they quickly became an invaluable part of our lives. Working in the healthcare industry means my schedule could change in the blink of an eye, and there were times when last-minute emergencies prevented me from getting home on time. Dirty Paws always made Leo a priority, giving me peace of mind when I needed it most. Their daily messages and photos of Leo out and about were such a highlight, and their reliability, ease of communication, and genuine care for Leo were unmatched.
