“Lee is the absolute best! Firstly she is so communicative and responsive, she makes all of the logistics so easy. Our dog is very anxious and typically very apprehensive of new environments, people and dogs - he can’t just be left with just any dog sitter - and Lee was so understanding of him and made him feel right at home. She truly understands small dogs!!”
“Kelly was kind enough to accept a last minute request to watch our 4 month old puppy. Our little Kasha had a great time. We enjoyed pictures throughout the day of her playing and socializing with the other dogs. She came happy and tired :) Thank you!”
“Baxter has stayed Andrea and her pups twice for daycare, with hopefully more days to come! Andrea has a gentle, kind spirit and seems very attuned to a dog's needs. At our meet & greet, she asked great questions about Baxter and his routines. She provided fun updates with pics a few times a day -- much appreciated!”
“Lily had a nice visit with Renae, her boyfriend, and their sweet dog, Kimchi. I appreciated how patient Renae was with Lily's appetite issues due to chronic kidney disease. I feel comfortable leaving Lily in her care.”
“Aman was very nice and Lucy appeared to really like him as well. He was very flexible for my last minute request. He did send pictures and updates of her stay with him. I will definitely request his service in the future.”
“We had a last minute cancellation and had to adjust our plans on the fly. Lilly was happy to accommodate my nervous pup and help her feel comfortable for the day.”
About: As a dedicated and experienced pet sitter, I am passionate about providing the best care possible for all types of pups. As a specialized pet sitter for bully breeds and small dogs, I understand the unique needs and quirks of these adorable dogs. With years of experience and a deep love for all things pup, I am committed to providing the highest level of care and attention to your furry friend. Everything from numerous short walks and playtime (temperature permitting) to feeding and medication administration, you can trust me to provide reliable and compassionate care for your dog. I am dedicated to ensuring your pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you're away. My home has ramps to access all furniture and gates to prevent pups from running up and down stairs to protect their spines and potential IVDD flare ups. Our morning starts off with a walk around the neighborhood, then it’s breakfast time which means training and play with positive reinforcement! Your pup then has playtime with toys and with my dog Penelope if they are up for it or can snooze away. We then take a quick walk during lunch to stretch our legs and say hi to our friends at Rocky’s. After work we love to be in nature and hit the trails or parks to get some steps in! After dinner I love nothing more than to cuddle with the pups on my couch before bed! We have an outdoor deck that the dogs always have access to. Mostly serves as a sunbathing lounge 😎. The deck is also equipped with grass patches for easy potty breaks. Your pup with have the company of my dog, Penelope. She is a playful and well behaved French bulldog. I have a robust routine for her to keep her healthy and prevent her from being affected from her predisposed IVDD. I can easily incorporate any special needs or request that your day may need.
“Finn had a great time with Vanessa. She’s very kind and easy to communicate with, and Finn appreciates her great yard. Finn had a great time with Vanessa’s dog Robin. We will definitely book again!”
About: I grew up with 3 dachshunds and pet sat for many years during college. I've also had 2 cats during college that have since passed away. I've worked a summer on a goat farm, fed chickens, and watched pet doves. I have a good presence with animals and people. I am a freelancer and am at home for the majority of the day. I can bring your dog with me to the park and running errands. Sometimes I'm out on client meetings here and there, but am always close to home. We are at the Vespr apartment building which are a dogs haven. Minutes from the lake for morning walks, with a built in doggy spa and run for evening potty breaks. Big windows with sunshine spots for sun soaking naps and filtered water for tasty sips.
“Schatze loves Alexandra!!!! Between the walks on the lake, the pet friend she gets to play with, and all the love, my dog gets more and more excited each time i drop her off.”
“Azar was great with the coqui! She’s so nice and easy to coordinate with. We met beforehand and it was clear she loves dogs, so I was comfortable with her caring for coqui. She sent some pics of him couch lounging and took him on a bunch of walks. I would definitely have him hang with her again.”
About: I've had dogs and cats my whole life (plus horses, goats, cows, chickens, guinea pigs and hamsters). The last 20 years I have had Frenchies and English bulldogs. Along the way I have also had chihuahua's, Rottweilers, pits, cattle dogs, American bulldogs as well as a number of rescue cats. I've adopted many from shelters, however, several showed up on my porch and adopted me. I am currently available 24/7. I can watch dogs in your home or mine. I am available to walk them on a set schedule, which I do with my dog regularly. I currently have a French bulldog, our day consists of reward based training/walks, endless love, healthy treats, enrichment toys, and hikes. I would like to offer this to other pets as well. I am understanding of any dogs special needs or diets. We run a routine program as far as food, feeding time and exercise. I will only board your dog(s)/cat(s) along with mine. I do not double book as I want to keep everyone safe and comfortable.
“From Neia’s convenience being in the local Oakland community, to providing Rhonda & me with education, love, understanding and support in a last minute need of a sitter, we are so glad to have found a regular sitter in Neia giving us a GREAT first Rover experience.”
About: I love little dogs! I enjoy connecting with them and getting to know their quirky little personalities. I grew up with a toy poodle and helped with my neighbors' dogs for years - walking them, hanging out with them during the day, and even keeping them for a night or a week. For the past 4 years I've also had a sweet mini aussiedoodle, Murphy. If you're a first time Rover user, get $20 off your booking with me! Use this code: PARKERD42569 I work part-time and mostly from home, and have a lot of flexibility right now. I can do one-time gigs and would love to build ongoing relationships! - BOARDING includes roughly 24 hours of doggy care and I am flexible about start and end time. If you need longer than 24 hours, an extended care fee will apply. If you need less, ask me about negotiating price. - DAY CARE can be 8-5, or 4-10, or any stretch between 8am and 11pm. - DROP INs and WALKS can be anytime between 9am and 9pm. Please let me know if your dog has separation anxiety or can be left alone briefly if I needed to run out (for example, the laundry is on the ground floor of my building). I give doggos a lot of personalized attention and try to anticipate their needs. I'm good at reading the vibe and knowing if a dog needs more or less of something. I am very safety conscious and will follow whatever guidance you offer, and communicate with you as much as you like!
About: I’m new to Rover but not new to dog care! I grew up with LOTS of dogs. Golden retrievers, a Bernese Mountain Dog, a small Beagle/Border Collie Mix, a Rodesian Ridgeback mix... and as an adult, I've sat for friends and family many times (sometimes for up to a month) and also have some experience fostering! I love building trust and a bond with a pup and I'm excited to spend more quality time with new dog friends as a sitter/walker. As a bonus, I worked as an assistant Veterinary Technician when I was in college, so I have some additional experience and skills in things like delivering meds, behavioral challenges and training, wound/post surgery care, and basic grooming (a lot of practice in nail trims!). Can’t wait to meet your loved one 💓 I work full time, mostly from home, supporting local government social services planning. I’ve cared for animals for free for many years and I’m adding pet sitting as a paid gig to my life right now because I’m saving up to start grad school in the fall for mental health counseling. I’m currently available for daycare and overnight sitting or boarding at my home most weeknights and weekends. I'm also often available on weekend days for hikes or long walks or adventures to give your dog a nice break when you're busy! I look forward to adding more weekday walks/visits this fall when I shift from FT work to school. I live alone and work from home and am happy to keep your pup company during the day. I live near Lake Merritt and in a nice, residential neighborhood so lots of options for local walks. I also have a car and I love to take pups out for hikes or other adventures if they need some extra exercise. If staying in your home, I can work from there to spend more time with the pup if the space is reasonably set up for that!

Parker D.
“Parker is phenomenal. I have a very sensitive dog and she always treated him with great care and attention. My dog loved being with her. She would keep him overnight and walk him when I was running late from work. Her home was my dogs second home and he trusted her as family. Parker was really good at paying attention to his needs and meeting them. She also respected Kevin’s dietary needs and followed our diet plan. Parker is a gem and I highly recommend her.”
Christine S.
“Christine is an ideal caregiver for pets. I have had the privilege to see them in action; not only as a walker and sitter, but as a foster parent. I, and my 10+ years of pet care experience, was in awe of how well they took in a pup who was very trepidatious and — over several weeks — molded a dog who was well behaved, confident, and loving towards two-legged and four legged friends alike. This took much training and patience. Christy has the temperament and experience to be a great caretaker for your pups!”
Rachel Z.
“Thank you Rachel, super helpful find in a pinch! Rachel was communicative and Mochi had a safe, great, and brief stay.”
