“Ellie had a great day with Danielle and Joel! They were very active with her and gave her plenty of outdoor time which we so appreciate! Our pup came home happy and sleepy from her day of play.”
“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.”
About: I’ve done neighborhood dog care in high school for 2 years and in college occasionally take care of my friends cats while they are away. I’m a full time student at Cal but my classes are all during the morning so afternoons and evenings I am normally available to go for walks, feed, or play with pets. I have a fenced back yard and a pet friendly lease for my apartment. While boarding I would put fragile valuables away securely in my loft.
“Michelle took great care of Maisie and was communicative and quick to respond during the day. I would leave Maisie with Michelle again if available and recommend her to others.”
“Ashley helped us out in a pinch and exceeded our expectations! She cared for our dog and quickly helped acclimate our anxious dog. We’ll definitely be asking Ashley for services in the future! Thanks for loving our pup like your own :)”
“Emily is a fantastic dog sitter! She watched my pup overnight, kept me updated with photos and messages, and made sure Roxy felt right at home. Her dog, Kibli, is super sweet and was such a fun (and gentle!) playmate, even though he’s much bigger than Roxy. I found Emily to be completely trustworthy and responsible, and it’s clear she genuinely enjoyed spending time with my dog. Roxy came home happy, well cared for, and tuckered out from all the playtime—I couldn’t ask for more!”
About: I’m a Fear Free Certified Professional, currently studying animal behavior. I’ve been running my own home based doggy daycare and boarding house for four years. My care is crate-free (unless that's what your pup's preferred at-home routine is,) with regular group outings to trails and the beach. I live in a two level home where the entire downstairs and fenced backyard are just for the dogs! It’s colorfully set up as the coolest doggie social club, but the pups are welcome throughout both levels of the home. They are never forcibly isolated and almost always prefer to be close to wherever I am. I keep my client list small and personal—almost all of my dogs have been with me for years. I don’t aim to pack the house; I aim to give the best experience possible for every dog and human involved. Even when clients start as one-offs, they usually stick around—because I strive to be a resource for dogs and their families. That’s why I call this place a home away from home. If you're interested, I invite you to come by for a meet and greet—see the space, meet me, and let me meet your little one. I look forward to being your dog’s new best friend! Canine care is my daily life. The dogs are with me throughout the day—whether we’re in the yard, around the house, or out on a trail. I structure my routine around their needs, with group outings, downtime, and a consistent rhythm. If my personal life calls me away, I have an amazing assistant Alaina who steps in. She also co-runs the daycare! I focus on keeping things consistent, calm, fun, and full of bonding—play, rest, outdoor time, and enrichment are all part of the daily rhythm. Outside of daycare hours, the space functions as our home too, so dogs experience a relaxed, real-life environment, not a facility. I send updates, pictures, and videos throughout the day.
“Claudio was amazing with Xico. Xico does not always get along with other dogs, but Claudio has the ability to ease any tension or fear Xico may feel around new dogs. Claudio went above and beyond to make Xico feel at home. They even went to Alameda beach! I know Xico felt safe and happy due to Claudio’s warm energy. I’m so happy Xico could socialize and have fun this week!”
“Mariola was great! She's very sweet and loves dogs. She even sent me a photo of Jojo having fun with his new friends. This was my dog's first time in day care and I felt totally secure. I highly recommend her!”
“My puppy had such a fun full day with Heather! I was so relaxed knowing he was in such great hands while I was away for the day. Being able to see Socks have such a great time via picture and video updates throughout the day was awesome and very reassuring! Heather’s communication was excellent and professional! I would 100% recommend Heather to anyone looking for a great sitter. I’m so happy I connected with her on this app and I will definitely be utilizing her services anytime I need excellent care for my baby while I am away”

“Latricia is the best! Pika has been at her place quite a few times and was happy every time he went! He also became good buddies with Latricia’s dog Prince. She would send me awesome pictures of Pika without me asking so I know he’s having a blast there!”
“Douglas is a very caring and patient dog sitter for our sweet but stubborn senior shih tzu! He took our dog out for adventures during the day but also was careful to listen to when our dog needed to just relax. We’d have him take care of our dog again in a second! Bonus, he has a wonderful dog named Pepe to share in the adventures!”
“We had a wonderful experience with Sarah and Evan! From the very beginning, they were warm, communicative, and made us feel completely at ease leaving Mika in their care. They kept us updated with photos and messages throughout the stay, which we really appreciated. Mika got along great with their dogs and came home happy. It’s clear they genuinely love dogs and treat them like part of the family. We’ll definitely be booking with them again!”
About: I have three years experience boarding dogs. They get out twice a day and everyone's food needs are taken care of. The dogs play in my living room and sleeping arrangements vary on the dog. I understand that these amazing creatures are a part of your family. I don't take that for granted. I am committed to keeping the pups entertained, loved and safe. Dogs can be unpredictable. I have chased dogs who have slipped their leashes for miles around the neighborhood. I have broken up fights. Carried a 55 pound pitbull who went into anaphylactic shock 4 blocks to my car and raced her to the vet. I've spit in dogs noses to save them from a foxtail (it works by the way). When you drop off your dog at my house rest assured you're getting someone who will do everything they can to keep them happy, and safe.
“Couldn’t be more grateful and happy with Simone taking great care of our baby pup. I loved how she was very thoughtful going out of her way to go to the pet store to get treats for Nyla since I forgot to pack some. Nyla looked like she was having fun and had a great time from the pictures and video updates from Simone. So glad I chose her to watch Nyla. Will definitely rebook her whenever we need someone to watch and take care of our puppy. 🤎”
“Yeon Soo was wonderful with our pup clyde! She sent pictures and frequent updates and was kind and flexible when our plans changed and we had to pick him up early. Will certainly book again :)”

Aimee E.
“My 4 year old Aussiedoodle Ruby has been doing daycare and boarding with Aimee for over 2 years. I am so thankful I found her. I'm very protective of my dog and Aimee has become a second parent! Her family has welcomed ruby into their home and ruby is completely in love with each family member. I wanted a daycare that was not corporate or in a warehouse setting where dogs don't go outside. At Aimee's, they go on outings almost every day or hang out in the water park she's built in the backyard just for them! I get photos while I'm sitting at my work desk and know Ruby is living her best life. Aimee is also learning about animal behavior and has helped Ruby break some tough habits that I couldn't train out of her on my own . She has also been supportive through some scary health situations with ruby and I trust her completely with Ruby's well-being. Sometimes I've considered moving to S.F. to be closer to work, but I know I'd never find another Aimee, so it's out of the question. Can't recommend her highly enough!”

Nikolai L.
“This is the best Doggie Daycare and border in the East Bay, hands-down. I have been bringing my Labrador to Nik and Jessica for years and have referred several people to them who have become regulars. Jessica and Nik have two dogs at their own and our lifelong dog lovers and experienced care providers. A number of things set them apart, starting with being just a few blocks away from Oakland’s best dog park, Bushrod. The dogs get to come to this amazing park twice a day. When they are not at the park there is no shortage of entertainment in their spacious home, which includes multiple outdoor spaces. They are generous with treats like bully sticks and Jessica even cooks homemade snacks for them. They love all the dogs as if they are their own. Lastly, their pack always has a good vibe. My dog is happy when I drop him off and happy when I pick him up, and also exhausted, in a good way. Only problem I have is half the time he does not want to leave!”

I highly recommend Paula for your dog care needs. As a registered nurse and neurotic dog mom, I’m very particular about who I will leave my dogs with. Both my babies have allergies with special food for each, need sunscreen and have behavioral quirks as they are brothers from the same litter. Paula has been great with me and my dogs- something I cannot say about every dog sitter on Rover. With my unpredictable schedule she has been very understanding of cancellations and time changes. They are so happy when they get to her place and tired and well stimulated when I pick them up. Thank you Paula! I am so grateful!
Lilly provided great care and comfort to my pet during his stay with her. She asked for all the details about my pet and his preferences, she also made every accomodation to ensure he had a safe and comfortable stay. She sent us photo updates and communicated often with great and detailed updates. Thank you Lilly, I felt very comfortable leaving my fur baby with you
Kenneth cared for our Rottweiler mix, Tahoe, on a last minute request! He was very knowledge and we instantly knew we could trust him with our rescue. He clearly understands dogs and loves them. He sent us updates and Tahoe enjoyed his time out in the patio & getting to know Maze. Reliable and truly caring!
We’re so grateful to Ashley for taking such great care of our pug, Baton! She stepped in last minute and was incredibly accommodating. Throughout the stay, she kept us updated and sent us the cutest pictures of Baton, which really helped us feel at ease while we were away. It was clear Baton was in great hands and got lots of love and attention. Highly recommend Ashley to anyone looking for a thoughtful and reliable pet sitter! Thank you so much!
Alexis is an amazing dog sitter. She’s communicative, responds in a timely manner, and is very flexible and I understanding. Our young and energetic dog loves spending time with Alexis! She runs towards her door the moment I park to initiate the drop off which is a clear indicator our dog is super excited to see her. Thanks, Alexis!
