“Anna and Conrad took great care of Teddy for the day and was able to accommodate our last minute request for booking and changes. Our guy is a little shy around other dogs so they were extra patient and caring to ensure he was okay and even allowed us to meet before our daycare so the dogs can get exposure. We also have a special diet and due to a recent illness and they were able to continue with our feeding instructions (even letting us know how much he consumed in the meal). I would be more than happy to drop off our dog for another session with them. Thank you Anna, Conrad, Mochi, and Olive!”

“Andy took such good care of Korra. Korra had fun playing with Milo, going for walk and even got pan fried beef for lunch! Now that's more than most of us get for our lunch 😀. Andy also shared lots of pictures and videos during the day. We will definitely book Andy for future daycare and boarding needs.”

“Michael is phenomenal! He is responsive and attentive to detail. You can tell he has a lot of experience. Our pup warmed up to him right away & I could tell she was in good hands. We will continue to utilize him for our future needs.”

About: Having raised my own puppy and dogsat for friends with anxious pups, I'm well versed in how to provide for a pup's full time needs. I can also provide puppy training in house manners (for example: waiting patiently to be fed, waiting at doors, simple commands). My care and attention to my own puppy, Chef, is full time and I am super excited to share that with your pup. We can go on excursions or hang around the house or play fetch at the dogpark. Whatever your pup is up for. I have a fenced yard and a friendly pup for your pup(s) to play with! And if your pup doesn't want company for whatever reason, I have gates and crates to make sure they are safe and happy in their own space. Feel free to request photos/videos and check in anytime for updates.
“Oreo has stayed with Melissa a few times now for daycare, and he always comes back happy! I feel safe leaving him with Melissa, and really appreciate she was able to host him this last time when I contacted her with only two nights notice. Thanks Melissa!”
About: I live with two dogs of my own as part of a full multi-pet household, so daily care isn't new to me — it's routine. I have specific experience with senior dogs, including the extra patience and attentiveness that comes with mobility issues, changes in appetite, and adjusted exercise needs. I'm comfortable administering medications — pills, liquids, or topicals — and keep careful notes on dosing and timing so nothing gets missed. My apartment includes an oversized outdoor patio for fresh air and relaxing evenings, and our community also has a dog run that's always accessible for exercise and playtime. Whether your dog is a high-energy pup or a slower-moving senior, I adjust my pace and attention to what they actually need. Pet care is my full-time focus, because I don't work outside the home, my schedule is wide open — which means I can offer walks and drop-in visits at the times that actually fit your pet's routine, not squeezed into a narrow morning-or-evening window like many sitters. Mornings are typically free for early walks or first visits of the day. I have consistent availability through the afternoon for midday drop-ins, potty breaks, or a second walk if your dog needs it. And I'm just as available in the evenings for a final walk or check-in before you're home. Whether your pet needs one visit a day or several spread throughout, I have the flexibility to actually be there when it counts. Safety and trust start with creating a calm, structured environment where pets can settle in and feel at home. My apartment is a full-time, attentive household — with two dogs and several cats of my own, pets who stay or visit here are never left alone for long stretches, and routines (feeding, medication, walks) are followed closely and consistently. I keep a close eye on interactions between visiting pets and my own animals to make sure everyone is comfortable, and I'm attentive to signs of stress so I can adjust the environment as needed — whether that means quiet separate space or supervised introductions. Outdoor time is always supervised, whether that's the patio, a walk, or the community dog run, and I take care to secure doors, gates, and any potential hazards throughout the home. Your pet's safety and comfort are treated with the same level of care as my own.
“Katie and Jason welcomed our sweet pittie Archie for daycare so we could give Archie the chance to get to know them some before they watch him overnight later this month. Archie came home relaxed and happy! We also received so many beautiful pictures and a video showing his time with Jason and Katie, which calmed this nervous mom’s anxiety about leaving Archie with anyone else. We’re so happy and relieved we found Katie and Jason, they are legitimate dog people! ♥️”


“Kitty was phenomenal! She was recommenced by friends. My dog came back happy and tired! Also I was late to pick up, but Kitty was gracious. I would definitely go back to her!!”

“Diana was so welcoming and accommodating to Teddy. They have a lovely house with a big back yard that he loved. She was also flexible with seeing whether Teddy would get along with other dogs she was boarding. The pictures she sent me that day made me feel like Teddy was in such good hands. He loved it there.”


About: I don’t have problem taking caredogs. My friends and family used to relied on me to check in with, feed and play with their pets. I’m currently working part-time and it’s manageable, so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your pups I’m available boarding especially weekdays 7am onwards. My place is a free space for one dog at time especially to trained dog I dont do much restriction so dog can move and play around, I live close to lake in foster city and its so easy access to walk the dog any time in a day.
“Marcel was well taken care of with Ivana! If you want a tired puppy this is definitely the place. Ivana was consistent with keeping me posted on how Marcel was doing throughout the day. Very accommodating with time frame as well! Definitely leaving a tip for that helped me out so much! Has spent repeated days with her and everytime was exhausted! Her dog was friendly with our puppy as well, helped with socializing him!”

“Zhenting and her family are so friendly and caring. Today was the first day I sent my dogs to daycare and I was very nervous about it but they had a good time with Zhenting! She sends me pictures and messages frequently throughout the day. Very mindful and lovely family!”

“I am very happy with how things went with James. I wanted to meet him before I made the arrangements and he was totally fine with that. He has a really calm, easy going demeanor which is great for my dog - she’s a super hyper puppy. He was really flexible with me and able to accommodate my changing schedule, and I just felt that my dog was safe and happy with him. Thumbs up!”

“I’m very happy to come across Doug. He took great care of Oliver. Dough pays attention and ask questions about Oli, which shows that he cares and have knowledge about dogs. I’m very comfortable leaving Oli with him.”

“Coutney is great!!! She is so nice and generous with our doggy, and knows the different needs of the dogs. I have left many times Fermin with her and he is very happy!!”

“Kristine did a great job watching over our dog. Our senior dog can be difficult and has some specific care instructions which she took into account. She sent updates and photos throughout the day and was very responsive. Would definitely recommend!”

“Leila and her daughters took the best care of my baby! She had a great time playing with the other dogs. Hazel is only able to have a special food and Leila and the girls made sure she didn't get any one else's food and had fresh clean water for her when she arrived. She also gets cold easily and they watched her closely and covered her with her blanket. They also provided extra supervision in the backyard when she was observed trying to eat a piece of bark. I feel very comfortable leaving her with Leila and her daughters. Also Leila is accommodating with schedule changes and super quick to respond to messages. We love her!”

“Lisa was fabulous! My first time using her and she was great! Lisa took Dexter out for multiple walks and sent so many pictures to keep me informed. Most of all Dexter was so happy. I will be using Lisa in the future.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - East San Mateo
Melissa took great care of my two Aussiedoodles! It was their first daycare experience and my first time using Rover, so I was a little nervous. She sent me videos throughout the day, which really put my mind at ease. She has a huge backyard with plenty of room for the pups to play or lounge. They came home happy! I would definitely book with Melissa again!

Forever patient, kind and gracious to our beloved Piper and our entire family! Lauri allows our lives to have a greater flexibility, calm, and peace than we could ever imagine without her. We pinch ourselves often at the good fortune of having her as a part of our village/pack.

Our dog had such an amazing day with Lawrence & crew! From the moment I dropped off, I could tell how excited she was to start her day care stay. Even before our first meeting, Lawrence took the time to listen & learn about my dog. He is super responsive & I loved all the pics & videos! And my dog finally drank enough water for the day. They had all the fun toys that my pup loves. She had so much fun, that she has been resting for the last hour ever since we got home. My dog was so attached that when I went to pick her up, she watched them walk all the way back to the gate & I had to promise her there could be a next time.

Marcel was well taken care of with Ivana! If you want a tired puppy this is definitely the place. Ivana was consistent with keeping me posted on how Marcel was doing throughout the day. Very accommodating with time frame as well! Definitely leaving a tip for that helped me out so much! Has spent repeated days with her and everytime was exhausted! Her dog was friendly with our puppy as well, helped with socializing him!

Torivia was amazing with Kaia! From the moment we met her, I knew Kaia was in great hands. She was kind, communicative, and clearly cared about making sure Kaia was happy and comfortable. Kaia absolutely loved her, and it gave me so much peace of mind knowing she was being so well cared for while I was at work. I could tell Kaia was getting lots of love and attention. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Torivia again, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to watch their pet!

Kristen, Michael, the two little ones and their pup were absolutely wonderful for me and my pup! I was so appreciative for them to approve a last minute request and truly got so lucky! There’s a wonderful fenced front yard and back yard and my fur baby immediately felt at home and enjoyed walks, lots of play, and even cuddles. So thankful ❤️

Bettina was wonderful! I liked that she wasn't over eager to book us to ensure our puppy was the right fit in her home. For a 5 month old working dog breed, she was gracious in helping watch him while we had to go into the office. I appreciate her attention to detail and while Archer ate a leaf off one of her houseplants & chewed a rug :(, she was more concerned about his safety which I am grateful for. Thank you again, Bettina!
