“Astrid took wonderful care of our senior pup. She was very responsive, sent lots of photos and he came home happy and not stressed. I'd recommend her to anyone looking for an experience sitter and those with senior dogs.”

“This is my second time booking with Areyona. She is a great communicator, I feel very comfortable leaving my dog with her. She takes great care of her.”

“Cindy was awesome with our dogs! She kept us updated on how they were doing and seeing how comfortable and happy they were made us happy assured they were in good hands. We would recommend Cindy and already booked our next stay for our dogs.”

Dina K.

“Irene and her family were absolutely wonderful with Chantilly while I was away. I felt completely at ease throughout my trip thanks to the frequent updates they provided, which were so thoughtful. It was clear they took great care of her, and it was heartening to see that their family dog, Kenzie, and Chantilly became total besties by the end of the stay. I highly recommend Irene if you’re looking for peace of mind and a loving environment for your pet while you’re away.”

“Ying is a wonderful dog sitter. She took care of our 75lbs Shepard mix and sent us fun photos and generally cared about his well being. We hope she’s available the next time we need a sitter!”

“This was our second time booking with Mary, and it was another wonderful experience! Our cat was noticeably more comfortable this time around—he even finally figured out how to use the cat tree, which he’s always ignored before! It was so sweet seeing him explore more and feel at home. He also had a great time playing with Mary's son. We love having a safe, welcoming place for him to stay when we're away. Highly recommend!”

“Chad took great care of our girls, who are both a little shy and take time to warm up. They seemed really relaxed when we picked them up--a good sign! Would definitely work with him again.”

Katie C.

“Our Miss Lexie had a wonderful stay. Chawntea treated our baby girl like family. She made new furry friends, which helps her socialization skills. Chawntea was so flexible with our ever-changing travel plans. Shout out to Southwest. She sent updates and pics while we were away, which brought smiles to our faces. Without a doubt, we will be using her services in the future.”

“Kendal was so great with Raven and very easy to work with. She got Raven to relax and cuddle by day 2 of knowing her which is a huge deal for our anxious little rescue baby!”

Letitia C.

“Jonathan and Tatiana did an amazing job of taking care of Edu! He had a great time at their place, having lots of fun with their pup Olivia, and they sent updates while I was away to know he was doing great. I would 100% recommend them!”

“Shuvashna is seriously the best pet sitter in the East Bay! I’m so glad I ended up choosing her. She has the best home and yard for the dogs, and really encourages socialization and play time. I felt that I left my puppy in the safest hands! They got so much exercise and love. Shuvashna was also really communicative in asking questions about my pup’s schedule, and consistently sent me updates with videos and pictures of my sweet girl. I am definitely going to continue to do boarding and doggy day care for my pup. Seriously 10/10 for our first experience on the Rover app and using any doggy day care or boarding service. I love Shuvashna! ♡”

About: I have been providing home-style dog boarding and pet care since 2017, with over 9 years of hands-on experience. I also worked for two years at a professional dog boarding and daycare facility in San Francisco and have experience in animal rescue. I am experienced in caring for dogs of all ages and personalities, especially puppies, senior dogs, rescue dogs, and dogs with anxiety or special needs. What sets me apart is my small, home-based care approach. I only accept 1–2 dogs at a time, which allows me to provide full attention, a calm environment, and truly personalized care for each dog. I am patient and attentive, and I adjust my care based on each dog’s personality to help them feel safe, comfortable, and at home. I stay at home most of the time and have a flexible schedule, so caring for pets is a natural part of my daily life. I take dogs out for walks, feed them, and spend time with them every day. I only accept a small number of dogs so I can give each pet plenty of attention and care. Home-style care in Castro Valley. Only 1–2 dogs at a time, never more than a small pack — so every visitor gets personal attention and a calm, consistent routine. Quiet indoor spaces to nap, multiple walks outside each day, and free meet-and-greets before any stay. I've been caring for dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs and more since 2018 and specialize in small and medium dogs under 45 lb.

“Thank you Megan & Jenny! I needed to board my dog for one night with short notice and Megan & Jenny were able to board him. They responded quickly to my request and communicated with texts and photos during my dog's stay. My dog looked happy and it seems like he was well cared for. I will be contacting Megan & Jenny again for dog sitting and boarding.”

“Golda and her husband were AMAZING! We will book again. They are located right across from a field-so our dog got the exercise she needed. They gave us so many pics/videos/updates on how she was doing and how much they enjoyed having Luna Sky stay with them. They were very thoughtful in offering to purchase more of her daily supplement and even bought her more of her treats to take home. They really made our dog part of their family while we were away and honestly were wonderful to work with. Nothing but 5 stars for us :) !”

“Ellie had an amazing time with Natallia. She took notes of all my instructions and paid extra attention to things that Ellie is a little bit shy of doing or eating. I definitely would trust Natallia to take care of my dog again!”

“Alexandra was an incredible pet sitter for my almost 3-year-old mini bull terrier. Alexandra is a clear communicator, proactive, kind, responsible, attentive, and loves animals. My dog stayed with Alexandra and her two kiddos for 5 days/nights, and I was able to fully enjoy my vacation because of Alexandra's excellent communication. She kept me updated and texted me each day before I had a chance to worry about anything (after all, she was caring for my fur baby!). I felt at ease knowing that my pup was in loving and attentive hands, and I could text any time I felt the need. My dog is super friendly and also has some behavior quirks. She can get overexcited, and Alexandra had no problem following all the care instructions. She noticed my dog's comfort or discomfort and ensured she got what she needed. When I picked up my pup, she was quite content and even gave Alexandra a little lick goodbye, which told me even more about the care Alexandra and her family gave my little one. So many thanks, and I will definitely book again!!”

“Simone took such great care of Laney while I was away for the weekend! Super responsive and easy to communicate with. Laney would love to stay with her again!”

“Kennia has watched Dudley 3 times while I’ve been out of town on long vacations and she’s fantastic! She’s great with updates and always makes sure he’s well exercised and cared for during his entire stay. Very communicative and a great sitter all around! Thank you from us both, Kennia!”

“This review is a little late because I've been traveling a bunch but I can’t recommend Briana enough! As a fellow pet sitter, I have pretty high standards and she exceeded all of them. She took in both my dog and my friend’s last minute for a few days, and we felt at ease leaving them with her. Her updates were thoughtful and frequent, and it was clear the dogs were having a great time. She made it easy when someone else needed to do the pickup and made sure everything we brought, was returned. It’s rare to find someone you fully trust with your pets, but Briana is absolutely that person. I’ll definitely be booking with her again!”

Sarah H.

“I am beyond relieved to have found the perfect sitter for Coco. Robin and Dan suggested a meet and greet and then a trial stay so that Coco would get to know them before leaving her there for a longer period. During the two day trial, I was given updates via text, photos and videos. They kept Coco entertained and very well taken care of. They are the sweetest couple and they genuinely love what they do. I highly recommend them!”
