“Renee and Chris were outstanding! They agreed to a last minute request when I had an urgent need to fly home. We arranged a meet and greet very quickly to make sure our dogs were compatible. Chewie is a newly adopted rescue and he can be overwhelmed in new settings. He adapted quickly as Renee and Chris provided him with plenty of love, exercise, play time. I also received lots of updates which put me at ease while I was away. I would absolutely recommend them!”
“This was now our third visit and as with the two previous visits, our dog Chica was a happy camper! From all the great photos and updates it was evident that she really enjoyed playing with the other dogs. We had absolutely no worries while away for the Thanksgiving holidays. When we picked her up, she was her usual loving happy self! Thank you Allison and Gordon!”
“Boba’s first time staying with Kazu and Yuko was awesome! Communication was great and consistent. They provided daily pics/videos and I can tell they gave him a lot of attention during his stay. He came home tired and happy :) Will gladly bring him back for another stay. Thank you!”
“David was fantastic with my Frenchie over the weekend, and I would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for a true professional. He was incredibly accommodating, allowing for both a very early drop-off and a late pickup, which made our travel plans much easier. Before the booking, he took the time to do a meet-and-greet, which helped us feel confident that it would be a great fit. His home is welcoming and clearly a place where dogs can feel comfortable. David also did a great job communicating with me while I was away and I appreciated his photos. One thing that really stood out was how well David handled my dog's unique needs. My Frenchie is leash reactive, and we're actively working through a few behavioral and training challenges. David took the time to understand his temperament and navigated those situations with patience and confidence. It was clear that he has experience working with dogs of all sort. We'll definitely be booking with him again soon.”
“Guidi is a kind, caring, and thoughtful pet sitter. She sent me frequent updates so I never had to worry while I was away. My puppy had a great time with her. She’s a great communicator and I’ll definitely book with her again!”
“Henri had a great weekend at Paulina’s! She came out to greet us and then took the leash and introduced Henri to her home-he was so comfortable with her from the start. Our dog has hardly been away from us in his 7 years and I was a little nervous about leaving him with someone new, but I soon realized I had nothing to worry about. Paulina is a very relaxed person and sent updates and adorable photos each day. It made me happy to see him look so at home with her. Don’t let her lack of a backyard discourage you-Henri was happy and tired when we picked him up. We will call on her whenever we need a dog sitter for when we visit our daughter in SF. Paulina was an absolute lifesaver and we are so happy to have found her!”
“Celeste is amazing with our dog Jack! He feels right at home there and she is always updating us with pictures and stories throughout the day. He's loves going over to stay with Celeste!”
“I am very delayed in writing this review, but I was so pleased with the way Jennifer took care of Sophie! Jennifer got Sophie out for beach adventures and she had other dogs to play with. Jennifer sent pictures regularly, and was very flexible with drop off/pick up timing. I would definitely book with Jennifer again next time I head to the Bay Area!”
“Megan was such a thoughtful and communicative dog sitter. She sent updates and lots of photos of Prisma. We felt happy knowing our dog was in such safe and loving hands. Would recommend Megan to anyone looking for someone to watch their pup. ❤️🙏”
“Marie is amazing. This was a last-minute booking on my part and she had never met my dog before. She won him over quickly, has a lot of experience with dogs, and even took initiative to give Willy Wonka a small haircut around his eyes because I haven't had time to maintain him. He was in very good hands with her and her communication was stellar!”
“I can’t recommend Sarah and Andrew enough! They took absolutely amazing care of our dog Remi. They were so intentional and caring, taking him on walks and sending us regular picture updates. Remi also got to play with their adorable dog Goji and their lovely kiddos. He had a blast and felt right at home in their cozy house. Overall, they went above and beyond, and I’d give them a ten out of ten! We’d definitely trust them with Remi again.”
“Baiyu was an incredible sitter for Boogie! Excellent communication and check-ins, and even groomed him every night. Hugely appreciated the care and Boogie was ecstatic when I picked him up. Thank you!”
“Chenyang did a great job looking after our dog, Kinsey. We were very comfortable that she was receiving great care and that her medications were being managed appropriately. Communication was great and we appreciated the pictures.”
“Its always great to work with David. David is excellent communicator with humans AND dogs. My dog Ziggy is always calm going to David's home - which is a great testament to the quality of work David puts in to take care of our pets while we travel.”
“Our young doodle had an amazing 3-night stay with Kira & her sweet dog. She & her husband went above & beyond our expectations caring for Jack over Christmas. He looked like he was having so much fun in Kira’s thoughtful updates & photos, we were worried he wouldn’t want to come home to us!”
“Alina was incredible, she made my family and I feel at ease knowing our dog was being cared for to a high standard. She kept us informed with how Orla was doing with regular updates. We would highly recommend Alina.”
About: Hi! I live in the Inner Richmond with my husband and our two dogs, a Maltipoo and a Pomeranian. I spend most of my time at home and only welcome one guest dog at a time, so your pup can get plenty of attention during their stay. I've had my own dogs since 2019, and I know how hard it can be to leave them with someone else when traveling. That's why I do my best to make sure every dog feels comfortable and well cared for while they're here. We usually go on two walks a day, often in nearby Golden Gate Park. If your dog prefers separate walks, I'm happy to do that too! I'll also send you photos and daily updates so you can see how your pup is doing while you're away. 😊 I work from home, which allows me to provide plenty of attention and supervision throughout the day. I am available on both weekdays and weekends, and my dogs go on two walks daily. If you prefer, I can also walk your dog separately from my own dogs. I have a Maltipoo and a Pomeranian and understand how important safety and comfort are. I pay close attention to each dog's behavior and needs and always prioritize their well-being. Whether it is feeding, walking, grooming, or daily care, I take a gentle and patient approach to help dogs feel safe, comfortable, and at home.
“Thanks for taking great care of Pluto! I appreciated your fast responses, many photos & daily updates. Thanks for making sure Pluto had plenty of walks & was well fed!”

I had a wonderful experience with Gordon. He sent me daily updates and photos of my dog, Troun. He also went above and beyond by making sure my Troun received daily supplements with his meals. Troun enjoyed his stay with Gordon and his kids. I truly appreciate his thoughtfulness and would definitely use his service again.
Sheena is always responsive and communicates daily with me when she has Doak. He enjoys being with her and always looks so happy in all the pics she sends. I have no worries while I’m gone knowing my baby is well taken care of. Thanks for all you do , we appreciate you so much! It’s good to know I can leave and not be worried knowing Doak is happy and enjoying himself with you and Ghost!
Our dog Eli had a great time staying with Cindy for 2 weeks! Cindy is very attentive and sends lots of pictures and updates about his daily activities. Additionally, Eli is a senior dog with several medications and a special diet, which Cindy had no problem administering. Thanks Cindy!
I highly recommend Jill! Umi is extremely shy girl, but she connected with Jill in very short time and she trusted her. Jill sent me pictures of both Umi and Shiro daily. and they had a very nice walk by the ocean every day. Both of my dogs had a great time with her.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
93% of sitters in Daly City can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Daly City home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Daly City.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Daly City. On Rover:
- 84% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 90% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 93% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Daly City sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in CA ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
