Feng made our shy pup Toby feel comfortable right away! She gave him lots of cuddles and treats, making him feel right at home. I will book again with Feng in the future!

About: After a few years away working as an engineer, I’ve realized my true passion isn’t in front of a computer, it’s with dogs! I was a top-rated, 5-star sitter in Fremont back in 2016-2017 with 38 repeat clients, and I am so excited to officially reopen my doors to the furry community. With over 20 years of experience living with and caring for dogs, I provide a "home away from home" where your pup is treated like family. Meet the Resident Pack I am a proud "dog mom" to two friendly pups who love making new friends: • Kaka: My sweet 11-year-old rescue poodle mix (13 lbs). He has a crippled leg, so I am very experienced in caring for seniors or dogs with special physical needs. • Panda: My energetic 4-year-old Bernedoodle. He’s a "pandemic puppy" who is well-socialized and ready to play! The "Five-Star" Backyard & Home Your dog will have the ultimate vacation in our 4,000 square foot home. We have plenty of indoor space for lounging and a large, fully fenced backyard for fresh air and supervised playtime. Personalized Care & Activity • Constant Supervision: I work remotely, meaning someone is almost always home to provide cuddles, bathroom breaks, and attention. • Active Lifestyle: We love staying active! Your pup will enjoy frequent walks and plenty of engagement. • Safety First: Because of my engineering background, I am detail-oriented and highly organized when it comes to feeding schedules and safety protocols. I can’t wait to meet your pup and give them a fun, safe, and loving stay! Our routine is highly flexible! Whether your pup is a high-energy "pandemic dog" like my Panda or a senior who needs a gentler pace like my 13lb rescue, Kaka, I easily adjust walk lengths and play styles to match their specific energy and physical abilities. A Day in the Life at Our Home Because we work a hybrid schedule, pet care is seamlessly integrated into our day. Your dog will never be just a "task"—they are part of the family. • 8:30 AM | Morning Adventure: We kick off the day with a morning walk, followed by a nutritious brunch. • Mid-Day | Garden Play: Around noon, I provide supervised "yard breaks" in our large, fenced backyard for fresh air and sniffing. • Late Afternoon | Neighborhood Stroll: We head out for a second neighborhood walk, followed by dinner service. • Evening | Last Call: Before bedtime, we have one final backyard break to ensure everyone is settled and comfortable. Total Freedom: Your dog has the run of the house! They are welcome in any of the 4,000 sq. ft. of indoor space. Whether they want to sunbathe by a window or snooze near my desk while I work, they will have plenty of room to feel at home. Safety-First, Premium Care Your pet’s safety and comfort are my absolute priorities. I provide a secure, high-standard environment designed for total peace of mind. • Supervised Freedom: Your dog has full access to our 4,000 sq. ft. home and a large, securely fenced backyard. I personally supervise all outdoor time to ensure every guest is safe and happy. • Proactive Security: For added protection, I have security cameras monitoring the property and dog gates that can be installed as needed to create separate, safe zones for different energy levels. • Constant Companionship: Because we work a hybrid schedule, there is almost always an adult present. This allows for frequent check-ins, bathroom breaks, and 24/7 attention. • Disciplined Care: I am highly attentive to feeding schedules, medication, and specific care instructions. Whether it's managing a senior dog’s mobility (like my rescue, Kaka) or a high-energy pup’s needs, I follow your instructions to the letter.

Jeanette and Vince are great! My 2yr old German shepherd, Meghan, had been to multiple training facilities and daycares and hated every one. She would shake and submission pee, and even though staff would say she was sweet and doing well during the day, I knew Meghan was miserable. But now, she absolutely loves daycare. She can tell when we’re in the neighborhood and gets excited before we even get to the house. She is high energy and enjoys having a bunch of dogs to play with along with caring and attentive humans. I’m very uptight when it comes to letting people care for my dog - I pretty much don’t trust anyone. This is the first time I’ve felt comfortable leaving my baby girl at daycare and it’s such a relief. Jeanette and Vince are very kind and accommodating, and Meghan is ridiculously happy. I couldn’t ask for more.

100% amazing experience all around! Jiapeng and Katelyn took wonderful care of our Yuffie girl. We got plenty of updates and pictures from the day, she had a walk and plenty of potty breaks, and had an abundant amount of play time with them and Pika! We are very satisfied with their attention and care of Yuffie and will definitely book with them again!

About: I love nurturing pets that need a little extra help! I have experience medicating pets with my senior dog Jimmy and taking care of high-need animals like young foster kittens. I have fostered kittens with the San Jose Animal Care Center and have now fostered ten kittens in total from bottle babies to adopt-ready. I'm comfortable keeping up with animals who need around-the-clock care! My partner and I both work from home throughout the week, so one of us is home at any given time. As such, we're able to petsit Sunday through Monday, any time. I walk dogs in our partially unfenced backyard on a leash where they have ample access to nature. I own both a large and small dog crate, if needed. Cats are allowed to free roam throughout the house or in our spare office, depending on their temperament or comfort level.

About: I have experience taking care of dogs and cats since i was young. My family and friends rely on me to pet-sit whenever the occasion arises. I help take care of family pets within the household. This means I help feed and watch them throughout the day on a daily basis. I have a fenced in backyard and a pet-friendly living room area. If needed, additional fences may be setup as pets are freely aloud to roam on the ground level (the stairway leading up is fenced off).

Anna has been wonderful! She watches a few other dogs and has a foster and her own which has been amazing to help socialize my one and a half-year-old Sheba. They have outdoor time in the backyard. They have a dedicated room for the dogs in the kennels. She is very flexible in terms of pick up and drop off. There’s been a couple times where I got stuck at work and she didn’t mind holding him for a few more hours. My pup gotten so comfortable at Anna‘s he knows that in the morning time when we’re getting in the car, it’s time to go to daycare

About: I come from a big animal family & have been taking care of dogs & cats since little. I am currently living with my partner, where we own 2 adorable cats, Kiwi & Michi. Over the years, I have been entrusted by friends, family, and co-workers to look after their furry friends when they are away, both for short and long periods. I am comfortable with administering medication, feeding, walking, and playing with pets to ensure their well-being and happiness. As an animal lover, I love taking cute pictures & fun videos to leave you feeling at ease on your next vacation. 💻 I am working from home full-time in the tech industry, which allows me to be flexible throughout the week, ensuring my schedule can be adapted to all your pets needs. I can provide pet care services during the day, in the evenings, and on weekends. 🏡 I live in a 902 sq/ft pet-friendly apartment with natural sunlight and big windows. Right next to my apartment is a spacious grass park that any dog would love. My apartment is equipped with an Indoor Ring camera, allowing me to check, communicate, and record everything that happens. When caring for pets in a client's home, I prioritize the animal's comfort and well-being. This includes ensuring that they have access to food and water, and providing exercise and playtime. I also make sure to keep the home clean and tidy and to follow any specific requests provided by the pet's owner. Don't hesitate to let me know if you ever need someone to water your plants, check the mail, or bring in packages! Above all, I provide lots of love and attention to the pets to ensure they feel comfortable and happy while their owner is away.

About: **PLEASE READ MY PROFILE BEFORE REQUESTING TO BOOK WITH ME** All pets are welcome 🐶🐱🦎 My number one priority is your pet’s safety & happiness! I’ve always had pets since I was a child & I am happy to help care for your pet as my own. I believe all animals are of equal life & deserve to love & affection & lots of outside time. This is my full time gig at the moment. I am in school part time online. Therefore, I am available to cater to your pets needs at all times. They won’t be left alone for hours on end. My goal is to make your pets to stay as comfortable as possible. I know it’s already hard on them being away from you and being in a new environment with a new person. I have a pretty decent sized back yard (mainly fenced off by concrete walls , there is no chance for a sneaky escape) if the weather is nice, the dogs will enjoy the daytime outside. We take walks around the neighborhood in the morning & evening. In the evening they will come inside. For overnight stays, dogs must be comfortable sleeping in a crate. New environments can make even potty-trained dogs nervous, and crating helps keep them calm and accident-free. I appreciate your understanding! I have a small 9 year old spayed female dog to keep your pet company. She also gets along with cats. She is very chill & likes to sleep & bake in the sunshine all day long, unless there is no sun then you can find her snoozing in her bed.

I’m so happy I found Alicia. To be honest, I haven’t had a great experience with past experiences on Rover. Finding someone/place to board our fur babies has been such a journey. We hardly ever board them, but when I do-I start to have anxiety. We haven’t gone on a family vacation for over a year, because we didn’t have anyone we trust in caring for them. They both just have specific needs, and Alicia has been very attentive and understanding to that. I love that she provides structured care for them. We boarded them for a day and she sent me updates and pictures of them as the day went on. Thankfully, all went well! This gave me hope and eased my worries about boarding them in the future. Thank you, Alicia!

I can't recommend Cindy's daycare service enough! From the moment we arrived, Cindy was incredibly communicative and friendly, which immediately put me at ease. My pup stayed for 8 hours, and I received THREE updates throughout the day, complete with adorable photos. It was so reassuring to see how well he was doing! He took to Cindy right away, which speaks volumes about the care and attention she provides. Next time we visit, we're definitely going to take advantage of her grooming services too. It's such a bonus that she can take my dog to her salon for a haircut while he's already with her, killing two birds with one stone! If you're looking for a reliable, caring, and knowledgeable dog sitter, Cindy is your person!
