“Stephen is incredible with dogs and treats your pet as if it was his own. He kept my active puppy happy the entire stay - taking him to friendly local dog parks and long walks. My puppy was genuinely sad to leave! I highly recommend Stephen and will definitely use him again.”

“Mario is just awesome with our super high energy doggie. Always super easy to communicate with and to arrange drops off/ pick up. Our dog loves going to Mario's house. Thank you Mario!!!”


“Kitty was a great sitter for Mobie. We received daily picture update of Mobie. When we picked her up, she didn't seem to want to leave. She even made the noise when she misses someone in the card ride home. We will definitely go back on our next trip and recommend to our friends! ”


“Chris and his family did a fantastic job of caring for our high energy pup while we were on vacation for a week and a half! I absolutely recommend him for anyone looking for a safe and loving home away from home for their dog. We hope that he will be able to watch our dog when we take our next trip!”
“Zicheng was extremely accommodating and responsive. He has a great backyard and a fun dog. He texts pictures during a stay and its always reassuring. I would highly recommend Zicheng for anyone in the Peninsula.”

“Anna was wonderful with our chihuahuas Lily & Lucy. It was there very first time ever being away from home and a big deal for us to leave them with someone we hardly know but Anna was extremely patient and reassuring. She made the process super easy. We will certainly use her again on our next family vacation.”

“Jenisa took excellent care of my Roxy and I was stress free the whole time I was gone. Roxy learned better manners and is more settled and ladylike since I have been gone. Thank you Jenisa!”

“This was a last minute single day extension on a two-day booking. I was so grateful to Lai for caring for Potato on short notice. (Details in a previous review). I recommend boarding your dog with Lai!”

“It was Miley’s first time with a new sitter for some time now so we were very nervous. Micaela and her family were very sweet and welcoming. Miley received wonderful care and I received lots of pics and updates. Thank you so much! I’m sure Miley will be back to visit again soon. ?”
“Kathryn and Jason were amazing pet sitters for our labradoodle while we were away! Great communications, easy to schedule drop off/ pick up, and most importantly they were very caring for our pup. She clearly had a great time with them. We will definitely book with them again!”

“Luna's second visit with Di was great! She was relaxed and comfortable during her stay. Di communicated with us several times a day, sharing photos and videos of Luna. I highly recommend”

“Mariano was just great! He took on our request 3 months in advanced, and on was able to accommodate Auggie during Xmas holidays! He updated us almost daily with videos and pictures of Auggie to let us know how he was doing, and it was obvious that Auggie was having a good time! You can tell that Mariano really loves dogs and he knows how to make sure they are well taken care of. I would not hesitate to board with Mariano again! Recommended!”

“Ming-Ching was fantastic! She's super nice, thoughtful, and attentive to our dogs needs. We have a bit of an anxious dog and she was understanding and able to accommodate her. She even pulled our dog out of her shell and sent us plenty of pics with her tail up, wagging, and happy 😊 Her backyard has plenty of space and our pup got lots of walks. Thanks Ming-Ching for a great experience 🙏”

“Luisa was so great with Cookie! Cookie has separation anxiety but warmed up to Luisa after a few hours. We really appreciate Luisa’s updates and photos throughout the day! We would not hesitate to book Luisa again in the future”

“Pouneh was wonderful with Huichol. She clearly picked up on his personality quickly, he's smart and energetic and needs both stimulation and affection, and she delivered on all fronts. He came home happy and well-loved. Would book again without hesitation.”


“Yuko and Kazu took great care of my two shibas for two weeks. They set up an easy meet and greet and communication is very clear with them from start to finish. I got video updates and was happy to see my shibas playing well with other dogs from their daycare. When I picked them up, both dogs were very clean and looked so trim, energetic and happy. It’s clear to me that they took very good loving care of my shibas and that they are very experienced with dogs. I am so glad I found them and have them set for another couple bookings in the next month, and I would highly recommend them to you without reservation.”


“Need a reliable, trustworthy and responsible dog sitter? Allison is the perfect match!!!! :-) For an animal lover, that's a big deal - there are far too few people (and especially businesses) out there that genuinely care about the animals, and aren't really just there for the money - This is NOT Allison. From the moment she greeted Stitch, I knew that he would be in good hands. She took her time to get to know him. It's always a good sign when dogs are comfortable with someone, and this was definitely the case with Allison.Her home is ideal with a wonderful large backyard so perfect for accommodating. The stress of leaving your pet for long periods of time can really have an impact on your vacation but luckily we didn't have to worry! Allison sent us daily pics via the app and was always very responsive to any questions. It felt so good and was such a relief to actually enjoy our vacation knowing that our dog stitch was in excellent hands! The prices for her services are more than reasonable. She really goes above and beyond and is very professional and conscientious. We'll def be using Allison again xoxoxo”

Evie and Michael were wonderful dogsitters!! They were incredibly communicative and took lots of pictures for us while we were gone. I could see our dog legitimately smiling in many of the pics, except when she was curled up like a princess in cozy blankets atop her dog bed atop a second dog bed!! We will definitely be using them again!! Thank you Evie and Michael, see ya next time!!!

We booked Kristine for a three-week boarding stay while we were out of the country, and she was fantastic. She was very communicative and responsive throughout the entire stay, sending us regular updates and photos that gave us great peace of mind. She was also caring for other dogs and did an excellent job making sure they all got along well. We felt completely comfortable leaving our dog in her care and would highly recommend Kristine to anyone looking for boarding services.

There are some great dog sitters, and some of them also happen to be genuinely great people. That’s how we feel about Katie and Jason. Not only did they love our dog Archie and care for him like he was their own, they kept this nervous dog mama leaving her pup for the first time informed, reassured, and entertained with the frequent updates, photos and videos sharing all the fun and love Archie was having. We cannot thank Katie and Jason enough for not only being excellent caregivers, but also being exceptional humans. They are DEFINITELY our go-to from now on for any future trips we have to take without our Archie!

We could not be happier with the care Ivana provided for our golden doodle, Gigi, during our week away. From the moment we connected, Ivana was incredibly responsive and caring which gave us complete peace of mind. She kept us updated every day with photos and videos, and it was clear that Gigi was happy, comfortable, and receiving lots of love and attention. Ivana treated Gigi like her own, and we truly appreciated the care and thoughtfulness she showed throughout the entire stay. Ivana provided 10/10 care, and we would absolutely trust her with Gigi again. So happy we have found her. Thank you, Ivana! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Please don’t skip over this review! This was Kobe’s 4th or 5th stay with Carlo and his wife, Izabella, and they are the only sitters we trust with our energetic 2-year-old pup. When we dropped Kobe off this time, he ran straight to Izabella without even looking back. That told us everything—we knew he felt completely safe, comfortable, and happy with them. As dog parents, there’s no better feeling than seeing your dog genuinely excited to be with their sitter. We truly cannot thank them enough for everything they did for us—especially on our wedding day. Izabella went above and beyond by bringing Kobe to our wedding in San Jose so he could be part of our special day. They absolutely didn’t have to do that, but they did it purely out of the kindness of their hearts, and it meant the world to us. Knowing Kobe was in such loving, capable hands allowed us to fully enjoy our wedding without worrying about him. Carlo and Izabella treat Kobe like family, and it’s clear how much they genuinely care about the dogs they watch. We are so incredibly grateful that we found them. There are amazing people on Rover, and Carlo and Izabella are proof of that. If you’re considering booking them, please, please, please do—you and your pup will be so glad you did!

Irina took fantastic care of my dog, Daisy! She took her on long walks, gave her lots of cuddles, and was very attuned to her individual needs. On top of that, Irina was very responsive to me, and sent lots of great pictures of their adventures together. It was so nice to know that Daisy was in good hands, and I didn't need to stress about her while I was away!

Hopper had such an amazing time with Annie for 2 weeks during the Jul 4th weekend. The first time for Hopper with Annie and her behaviors have improved too (incl. walking pace, listening to commands, and enjoying the company with other dogs). I cannot say thank enough to Annie and she is very responsive and actively send pics and videos. Hopper will miss her in a great deal and looks forward to next stays with Annie.
We were so fortunate to find Christine to take care of Zoey, our terrier mix. We had never left her with a sitter for this long, but we had nothing to worry about. Christine was able to spend a lot of time with her, taking her on many interesting walks. In the photos she sent, our dog was having a great time. We’d love to use Christine’s services again in the future.
