Nikisha is great! We booked a bit last minute and she was able to accommodate us. She came for a meet & greet which we really appreciated. She was thorough and took care of everything we had discussed. She also sent notes and photos which were much appreciated as well. We’ll definitely book with Nikisha again!

Son has been super responsive from the first point of contact. He was able to quickly schedule a meet and greet to make sure your dog is super comfortable with him before he commits. My dog, Benji, is a very nervous dog and Son was able to adapt to his needs and care for him. Son was flexible fast communicating any details and sending on time reports and pictures. He will check in a day prior to the booked service to ensure he got everything. Very easy and very good first experience with Rover. He was able to make the pet owners to feel at ease while been away. Once I returned home everything was good and as we left it and even Benji waited at the door expecting Son to come back and play with him with his favorite Avocado toy and walkies.

Shelly was a great choice! Every specific care task was completed. Last minute, one of my cats needed medication and she gladly took care of that as well. Shelly was punctual, communicated great, and helpful. One of my cats is super shy, but eventually opened up with Shelly (which is a good sign.) My cats were clearly happy and very-cared for. She provided up to date info after each visit and included cute photos of the two cats :) She definitely provided a sense of comfort and assurance while we were away. I would definitely recommend Shelly to other pet owners.

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.

Michele is very responsible and kind, my cat had some congestions while I was away but Michele went above and beyond to take care of my car just to make sure he is doing better if not worse. I appreciate her, and highly recommend her to everyone else.

Chris was amazing with our puppy August! He even took him on a walk with his doggo so he could practice pack walking, as well as other manners and obedience training during the walk. August thoroughly enjoyed his time with Chris and was able to take a good long nap afterward. August is already looking forward to his nest outing with Chris, thanks!

About: I was raised with cats and dogs ever since I was a little kid. I can’t recall a time in my life where there wasn’t a furry friend around. Many of my pets I’ve had since they were babies until old age, so I have experience with animals of all age groups as well as breeds as small as chihuahuas to large Siberian huskies. I also have experience giving medications from my time watching a cavapoo with heart and lung issues. I’ve been off work the past 4 months because I recently had a baby girl and she loves our pets at home, but I want to get us out of the house more and what better way to do that than meeting new furry friends! I’m very respectful of peoples spaces and routines and always leave a space exactly as it was. I am willing and able to do whatever needs to be done to ensure the best care I am capable of providing

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.

This was second time Sasha took wonderful care of Luna while we were away. She followed all instructions carefully, kept us updated, and regularly shared photos, which gave us great peace of mind. Even when she had a sudden emergency, she communicated right away and still made sure Luna was taken care of — something we really appreciated. Sasha is responsible, thoughtful, and we always feel relaxed knowing Luna is in her care. We would happily trust her again and highly recommend her!

Kait was absolutely wonderful, and I can’t recommend her highly enough. She took such loving, attentive care of Mira over Christmas, which gave me so much peace of mind during the holidays. Kait was reliable, communicative, and clearly very experienced with cats. She sent thoughtful updates and made sure Mira was comfortable, happy, and well cared for the entire time. It’s clear Kait genuinely cares about the pets she watches, not just checking boxes but really spending quality time with them. I came home to a calm, content cat, which says everything. I would 100% book Kait again and feel so lucky to have found her. Thank you, Kait, for taking such great care of Mira!
