About: I’ve been a true dog-and-cat person since junior high. Growing up, I was basically the “head zookeeper” of our home (2 dogs, 2 cats!), so I’m comfortable with all kinds of personalities, energy levels, and quirks.Now, as a full-time WFH professional based in San Jose, I’m home all day—meaning your pup gets constant attention, care, and companionship. I don’t just watch dogs—I treat them like family from the moment they walk through the door. ❤️ The "SJC Convenience" 🛫 Traveling soon? I’m located in San Jose, just about 20 minutes from San Jose Mineta International Airport, making drop-off easy and convenient on your way to the airport.I’m also happy to accommodate last-minute bookings and unexpected travel plans—if your trip comes up suddenly, you can count on me for reliable care. This is your dog’s second home ❤️ - Total Supervison: I’m home 24/7. No lonely pups here! 🏠 - Built-in Bestie: Our friendly Cockapoo puppy is always down to play. 🐩 - Same-Day Ready: Urgent daycare or emergency boarding? No problem. ⚡ - Photo Updates: I’ll send plenty of pics so you can relax on your trip. 📸 I have a remote job, so your dog will have 24/5 companionship and supervision during the week. I offer boarding Monday through Friday and are always open for last-minute or same-day bookings for those urgent needs. I also provide walking services when I don’t have pups boarding at home. While I focus on weekdays, I’m happy to discuss weekend care for my regular, returning clients! Safety is my top priority, and since I’m home full-time, I’m always there to keep a close eye on everyone. I have a friendly young Cockapoo in our apartment, but I’m very careful about how dogs interact. If your pup is a bit shy or just isn't in the mood to meet our puppy, I can easily give them their own dedicated room to relax in so they feel completely comfortable and at ease. I’m also happy to follow whatever routine your dog is used to at home. If you prefer they be crated for naps or bedtime, I can definitely make that happen. Whether they are playing with our pup or enjoying some quiet time, they’ll be treated like a member of our family the whole time they are here.
“Ru and family are very nice and warm with dogs. She has a dog as well and knows how to handle one very well. She requested a meet and greet to ensure Gabbar and her dog got along. She timely sent pictures and updates for Gabbar and followed his schedule through. She had a neighbors dog come along to her place when gabbar was there for a play date and Gabbar enjoyed a lot. I would definitely have Ru look over Gabbar again and would recommend others as well.”
“Grace is such an attentive and caring daycare provider for my dog. She's very communicative and made sure Arya was well cared for. Thank you so much for all you do!”
“Nano had a great time at Ashita’s. Before the day care day, Ashita even accommodated meet and greet which we appreciated. By the end of the visit, Nano wasn’t sure she wanted to leave! We will definitely rebook!”
“Ahiram and her husband are amazing daycare sitters. They were very attentive and incredible with updates and responsiveness. Love the patience with our two kraken monsters (our dogs lol)”
“Diem took great care of my dog—very kind, genuine, and clearly someone who really loves dogs. She has a secure fenced setup (including the front/driveway area), which made me feel comfortable right away. She showed my dog a lot of love and even took the time to ask about what she could eat because she wanted to give her something extra, which I really appreciated. By the end, my dog felt completely at home. Honestly, I think my dog was a little sad to leave… and I can’t say I blame her. Would definitely book again.”
“Dawn took care of our puppy and she did an amazing job. Our little yorkie had an amazing time and Dawn kept us updated with photos and videos. She is an awesome person to take care of your dog. We look forward to requesting her day care services again soon.”
“My dog Sheera stayed with Dakshina and Rahul for a day. I got lots of photos and video updates. They took good care of Sheera. When I reached to pick him he was very comfortable with them and was playing with them. I would highly recommend them and would board Sheera with them again.”
“Pissamas, was waiting in front of her house o greet us and our dog LuLu . She sent pictures and video of LuLu several times during the stay which reassured us that LuLu was doing OK. We will definitely be using Pissamas again for future boarding”
“Soojin was fantastic with my Suki girl for daycare! She sent lots of adorable photos and updates throughout the day, answered all of my questions, and made drop-off and pick-up incredibly easy. I felt completely at ease knowing Suki was in such great hands. My pup came home happy, tired, and content, which is always the best sign. I’m so grateful to have found Soojin and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter. Thank you, Soojin!”
“This was our first time with Sofiya, and my dog came home happy and tired—a great sign! We booked a one-day daycare visit and had a wonderful experience. I’ll definitely be returning for an overnight stay. Thank you, Sofiya! 🙏”
“She was so nice and communicated effectively. We really appreciated how flexible she was with us. We’d definitely have our Bhaloo stay here again when we’re in town. He had a great time.”
“Steve and his partner (fiancée!) are wonderful pet-sitters, super friendly to work with, and highly communicative. They happily accommodated a last-minute stay for Brady as a new client, which was so appreciated. When I picked up Brady, she was happy, not stressed, and clean :) We will definitely be back—thanks so much!”
Alum Rock dog parents share their Rover experiences
Choosing Anna as my babysitter was the best decision I could've. She was understanding of my long hours of work, she communicated very well with picture/video updates, and overall understood my babies needs easily, allowing him to feel at home on her comfy couch🥰. I will definitely book with her again when I need dogsitting services. Highly recommend!
Melissa was spot-on with communication and empathy. Although her husband seemed to play a major role, I had only communicated through Melissa. Daff seemed well taken care of (plenty of photos), and was there for a VERY last minute booking. If I lived here, I'd be loyal to using them again and again :)
Ezra is very kind and considerate. Bobbi had a wonderful time at her place. The yard is beautifully maintained and perfect for dogs. She also sent us updates from time to time, letting us know how happy Bobbi was during her stay. We truly appreciate her care!
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!
Mrs Cally and Mr Issac are excellent dog sitters!! They take care of our Luna as well as their dog. We weren't worried when we let Luna stay overnight at Mrs Cally's house. Luna felt so comfortable and joyful when we picked her up, which tells us Luna is in good hands. We want to thank you so much for ❤️ and caring for our baby! We highly recommend Mrs Cally for everyone!
