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.
“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.”
“Toffee was cared extremely well by Yiteng and his wife during the full-day daycare period. This is the first time our dog Toffee went to a completely new place and be cared by a "total stranger", which made Toffee super stressed and hard to do her routine normally. But thanks to the loving cares Toffee received, Yiteng's wife made Toffee feeling like at home and getting comfortable in the new place very quickly. We received many update messages and videos/pictures during the day to see how Toffee was doing and also knowing that Toffee got full attention from the sitter. Another factor we liked the service the most is the nice outdoor environment where Toffee could walk around and do her potty break, which was similar to Toffee's regular routine that she used to while at home. This made it so much easier for Toffee to get acclimated quickly. We required specific feeding routine for Toffee starting with the soft food we made (need to be refrigerated) followed by the hard food. Yiteng's wife is so accommodating on all of our requests, never say NO to any of our suggestions. I am truly grateful for the super loving care Toffee got and I strongly recommend the service from Yiteng's family. I am definitely planning to book this service again.”
“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.”
“Highly recommend! Michael, his wife, and their pup Kirby are warm and welcoming. Little Bear struggles with separation anxiety and fortunately, he adjusted quickly to their home. Likely because of the good vibes, chill environment, sweet pet parents and a level of understanding and flexibility that is much appreciated. Huge yard and conveniently located. Great sitter!!”
About: We’re dog lovers (currently without our own furball) and would love to care for yours. Our pet parent history: Over 18 years, we've raised puppies (black Lab and Boxer mix) and then a cool cat found us, making a party of 5. Post-trio, we rescued a middle-aged Boxer who was sweet on humans but not so much with other dogs and spent several years walking on the wild side with her before she became street-settled. We've been dog park regulars and hosted furritos of friends for slumber parties and were short-term vacation fosters. We've gently nursed our dogs through neuropathy, lung cancer, and Cushing's disease. We found great people to care for our girls on Rover and want to do the same for you! We miss being dog parents dearly and will care for your pets as if they were our own. If you happen to have dog & cat siblings, they are welcome, too! It’s summer break for one of us and the other is self-employed, so we have tons of time to dedicate to your furrito! We prefer not to leave your pup unattended — generally one of us will be with your doggo at all times. Your dog(s) will have access to all parts of our non-smoking home, sofa and beds included! Our dogs were free range, we do not have a crate. We are happy to use yours, please bring if needed. We’ll schedule a meet & greet ahead of time to make sure that you’ll both feel comfortable with us while apart and that your dog is a good match for us. Our home is 2 stories (wood floors downstairs, carpeted stairs & upstairs) with a front yard and small back patio area. We're in a safe neighborhood where we'll take daily walks.
About: My home is your pet’s home 🫶🏻 Safe and trusted environment 💛 I have been caring for dogs and cats of all sizes and temperaments since I was 10 years old. Neighbors, friends, and family have always relied on me to check in, feed, and play with their pets. As a dedicated dog and cat owner myself, I understand that your pet is family. I am a very active person who loves long walks, so I can ensure your dog gets plenty of exercise. I’m also highly organized and comfortable following specific feeding or medication schedules to keep your pup's routine consistent. I currently work in healthcare administration during the week, which means my weekends are entirely dedicated to pet care! I am available for full-time boarding and house sitting from Friday evening through Sunday night. Because I am a student and work a consistent schedule, I am very reliable and punctual with my check-ins and walk times. Your pup will have my full attention during their stay! I live in a pet-friendly environment in San Mateo where your dog's safety is my top priority. I have a friendly dog of my own who loves making new friends, making my home a great 'social' spot for your pup. I am very comfortable with 'Meet & Greets' to ensure everyone gets along. I maintain a clean, safe space and am happy to accommodate crate training or any specific home boundaries you have in place.
“Kelly was very communicative and I was impressed by her attention to detail. She sent us a google form to provide a range of information about my dog's needs and preferences for our stay. She was very warm and kind to me and my dog and we'd love to stay with her again!”
“Yvette was awesome and great to work with! This was my first time using Rover and I can say because of her I will definitely be using it again! Charlie had a blast and I can tell he was well taken care of while my partner and I were at work. 10/10 recommend!”
About: I have years of experience with animals from fostering, pet sitting, and owning my own pets! I also have done years of volunteering in different shelters. My experience goes far beyond cats and dogs extending to reptiles, birds, small animals you name it. I can handle animals of all temperaments and quirky personalities and have experience with shy and anxious pets. I have a lot of experience with both senior pets and puppies/kittens! I also know CPR, can administer injections, and first aid 😁 CURRENTLY NOT ATTENDING SCHOOL I WILL RETURN TO SCHOOL AUGUST 2026 ‼️ I am currently a student with a very flexible schedule and attend classes from 8:30am-1pm! If I am in school someone is always home with your pets as I live with my family and they help me out a lot 😊 My routine really depends on owners instructions but I will adjust if I need to make it compatible to my lifestyle such as feeding and bathroom times :)
“Angani and her daughters took good care of our puppy. He loved getting pampered by them! Angani was also very communicative and sent us lots of pictures and videos that made us feel very comfortable! Thank you for taking good care of Kaju!”
About: I've taken care of dogs for 5 years now, and I'm a proud owner of a labradoodle. I love taking them to the dog park and take a walk. I'm a dog owner myself. My husband and I work remotely. Our schedule is flexible. I have a friendly dog to keep your fur baby company. I only take 1 dog at a time. I have a fenced yard and a friendly and playful labradoodle. My pet is neutered and fully vaccinated. I could crate your dog easily if needed. I have a daily routine from feeding, playing and bonding with my pet. I make sure he stays happy, healthy and well-cared for. He loves sniffing around. I make sure pets are comfortable and happy by following their feeding schedule and providing plenty of play time. I have a big fenced yard where they can explore and enjoy themselves.
“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.”
“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!”
“Very clean home and our pup seemed like he really enjoyed his stay with Hui! She sent photos throughout the day and was very attentive. I appreciate her understanding and care with puppy. I hope she can watch Harvey in the future!”
“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!!”
East San Mateo dog parents share their Rover experiences
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!
Jin took such great care of Pepper! She was attentive, communicative, and made us feel completely at ease while we were away. Pepper came home happy, well cared for, and clearly comfortable with her. We really appreciated the updates and the genuine care she showed throughout the stay. Highly recommend Jin to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter for their pet!
Archer had SO much fun. I've never seen him at home so exhausted 🤣 He passed out in his crate 10 minutes after getting home from pick up. Thank you, Heidi! She and her bf took great care of Archer on our behalf. We were very worried about his first Rover but they made it feel like such a breeze. Appreciate your help!
Annie is great! She is professional and experienced. She took great care of our dog, and he immediately bonded with the pack. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy who will treat your pet like their own (and send great photo updates), Annie is the one. We’ll definitely book with her again.
Pitzy was fantastic!! Very easy going, calming personality and gets along great with dogs. This was our first Rover so we were a bit unsure how it would go but Pitzy made everything super easy. She got on the phone with us and took lots of pictures / sent lots of updates. Felt like she took care of Mia like her own. Can tell Mia had a lot of fun with her and looked forward to seeing her. 10/10 will recommend and will be coming back!!
Addie had an amazing time at Ming-Ching’s house! We’ll definitely be bringing her back for both doggie daycare and boarding. Communication was great, and we loved receiving pictures throughout the day—it gave us so much peace of mind. She clearly prioritizes safety and truly emphasizes attentive, thoughtful care. Highly recommend!
Michael is great… I messaged him on short notice and he was able to accommodate my dogs. One of my dogs is very old and he has some balance issues. Michael was great with him, and was able to determine his needs. My other dog was super happy at Michael’s place, when I went to pick him up he was running about with the other dogs! I would definitely go with Michael for all your dog related needs, he has really good dog insights, and you can trust that he will care for your pup(s)!
My dog really loves Kimberlin. On the very first day when I picked up my dog from daycare, he went to Kimberlin and he was saying goodbye. He doesn’t usually do that to anybody especially on the first day of daycare. Kimberlin made sure that my dog was well taken cared of and she gave me updates throughout the day. Kimberlin is very gentle and kind to my dog. I highly recommend her and I am grateful that I found her.
This was the first time I am using Rover and for that matter the first time to ever use a dog sitter. How fortunate are we to have found Chloe. She’s understanding and reassuring that Charlie will be well cared for and I truly believe she was. Chloe is calm and kind. She provided us with photos. ♥️ I won’t hesitate to used Chloe again.
