“Our puppy had a wonderful day with Etienne and Emilie. She had multiple walks and we got updates throughout her stay. She was in a great mood when we picked her up. We would not hesitate to leave Layla with this wonderful family again”
About: Hi! I’m a mom, and lifelong animal lover based in San Rafael. With over 20 years of experience caring for pets—including sitting for all of our friends dogs and cats—I bring both heart and hands-on knowledge to every dog I care for. I work from home and offer dog walking, pet sitting, and boarding 7 days a week. I love being outdoors and make time daily for walks, hikes, and playtime in nearby parks, trails, and beaches. I have twins in high school who were raised around animals and love spending time helping to walk, play, and socialize with our furry guests. Whether it’s a high-energy puppy, a senior dog needing special care, or a shy pup who needs patience and love, I adjust my schedule to meet each dog’s individual needs. I've cared for puppies and seniors needing medication, and everything in between. I'm located right near beautiful walking trails, and beaches, and dog-friendly parks—perfect for pups who enjoy both exercise and social time. When your pet stays with me, they’re part of the family. Safety, affection, and joy come first in our home—and yours. Let’s chat about how I can help care for your four-legged friend! I work from home and have plenty of flexibility to pay attention to your pet. I have twin teenagers who both love animals. Your pets won't be short on play mates or love here! I am right by a great park and trails for fun walks. I don't have a crate for sleeping, but I have comfortable dog beds. I cook for our pet milo, so if you need home cooking Ican accommodate that. Milo is almost 17 years old! He is part Corgi and Part Belgian Shepard. He loves other pets that visit us.
About: I have taking of dogs for about to years of all kind. I love them. Neighbors have relied on me to take of there dogs. Hi, I work part time and I go to school over the weekdays.so, I’m free to take care of your dogs over the weekend, and during school breaks. I I live by myself in my apartment of a bedroom and a living room and there is a patio that I could walk with your dog or take him for a walk or just play with him. I really love dogs and I really want to have one, but I can’t at the moment because I don’t make that much money to have one.
“Thanks marissa, I was able to work all day and not worry about my pup being taken care of, especially on a holiday. She was quick to respond and I appreciated her positive attitude. I definitely would use her again.”
About: I grew up with dogs and I’ve been a dog owner most of my adult life. I’ve also been a dog owner from the puppy age of eight weeks all the way through mature life. I can take care of other pets as well, and I can be available for dog boarding, dog sitting, dog walks, and other pet care during your weekends and travels. I am a part-time parent and establishing this as additional income since I am a single income household in Marin county. I am available for dog walking and boarding on alternating weekends, and during periods of your travels when I am in town. I am an outdoors woman, and will get pets outside and active regularly. I know several local dog parks and dog-friendly trails since I’ve been a dog owner myself for years (I no longer have a dog as of early 2025). I have a fenced front and backyard. I can house a pet with all of your personal items for the pet anywhere in my home, and I can provide highly personalized care since I live alone (part time parent with alternating weekends on my own).
About: I've been caring for dogs for as long as I can remember and love spending time with animals. I have worked at the humane society taking care of a variety of pets and find a lot of joy in doing so. Growing up, I regularly walked and cared for my own dog throughout San Francisco and later in Larkspur. Over the years, neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me to walk their dogs, provide pet sitting, and make sure their pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while they're away. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and needs, and I always strive to give them the attention, exercise, and affection they deserve. Whether your pet needs a long walk, playtime, or a reliable sitter, I'll be able to do it! I am currently available full time and would be happy to hang out with pets whenever! I love spending time with all pets and love to go on long walks. I have a fenced yard and one dog who is very kind with other dogs. I love taking care of pets and will love to walk/play with them.
“Halee was very welcoming and kind towards Teddy. He had a couple of long walks during his visit with her, which he loves to do. He was well-cared for and we appreciated her support”
“Dennis was extremely flexible with a list minute day sitting appointment. Our dog is timid and fairly shy so Dennis was very conscientious about introducing her to the pack slowly. When I picked her up, it was clear she had become fond of Dennis. And when we got home, she passed right out. Thanks so much for taking care of Piki!”
About: Sri Sharie is a long time animal lover, enthusiastic about the beauty that our animals share with us. I do some training, and I am an animal communicator 🙂🧚 I also delight in sharing timeless wisdom, natural remedies, and endless enthusiasm for all the animals... All creatures great and small. Holistic Health Professional for over 35 years, a Magical Genius in the Gene Keys system - my conscientious care and versatile tool kit are on offer throughout the Bay Area I am semi-retired from my professional practice as teacher of healing arts, and individual and couples therapist. I have a lot of experience with service animals. I love to connect the dots in terms of the stresses that we are experiencing in our own bodies and then how our animals respond, and sometimes they carry our burdens. I love to support clearing and balancing for everybody's health! Since my journey in the last decade, which I call my radical sabbatical, I am ever grateful to be connecting differently with people rather than simply as a therapist. We are all in this together, and love abounds! I grew up with dogs, and more dogs. We had German shepherds and a Mastiff when I was very young, later my mother raised Border Collies, and my sister raised Jack Russells. I do love to help train dogs when they need it, it is ever so important, and help the owners get in the best groove with their relationship to their precious companions... My mother also had a Maine Coon cat and a small dog that were best friends and I have to say this is my favorite thing ever... In the '70s I hitchhiked across the country with a kitten tucked in my parka...
“Ariane was amazing with my dog, Porkchop! She was super friendly, kept me updated, and made sure he got lots of love and attention. I felt so comfortable knowing he was in such good hands. Highly recommend Ariane!”
“Lillie was great and I would highly recommend her. She watch my two puppies (3 months and 4 months old) and they had a blast! She worked on potty training and was great with them. She also was available on short noticed and was super easy to coordinate and communicate with. I am grateful to have found her!”
About: We only take 1 dog to be cared for at a time with our small family & havapoo Ollie. I work from home during the week so there is lots of time for cuddles and walking. My teen is eager to help! I work from home full-time, so provide cuddles, attention and lots of walks. In the evenings our family of 3 + havapoo Ollie will care for your fur baby just like ours We can follow whatever protocols you would like for your pup. We have a fenced in deck and provide plenty of walking and exercise at the open field down the hill if your pup is up for it.
“Stanley loves Adriana! Stanley is a senior dog with health issues & Adriana handles it all with confidence & is an excellent caregiver! He loves her space & his tail wags say it all. Definitely a gem!”
About: Hi! I’ve been around dogs since I was 5 years old, and I can’t imagine life without them. I recently welcomed two playful puppies into my family, so I’m very familiar with the energy (and patience!) it takes to care for dogs of all ages. I love going on walks, making sure pups are well-fed, playing with them, and of course giving lots of cuddles. Pet parents can count on me to be responsible, reliable, and caring. I always treat dogs like they’re my own and make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s keeping up with their daily routine, giving them extra playtime, or just being a comforting companion, I’ll make sure your pup is well taken care of. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because dogs have always been a big part of my life. I’m originally from Southern California, but I’m currently in the Bay Area for school, and I would love the chance to spend more time with dogs while I’m here. As a full-time nursing student, I’m available later in the evenings on Fridays and fully free on weekends. Caring for dogs is something I truly enjoy, and I’d love to spend my free time walking, playing, and cuddling with pups who need some extra love and attention! Since I live in a small college dorm, I’m only able to provide pet care in clients’ homes. When caring for pets, I focus on making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I stick closely to each pet’s normal routine — feeding times, walks, playtime, and any special instructions — so they feel at ease. I give plenty of attention, cuddles, and play, and I always keep an eye on their well-being. I’m respectful of the client’s space and make sure everything is left neat and tidy. My goal is for every pup (and their owner!) to feel happy, stress-free, and well cared for while we’re together.
“Ashley was amazing! I broke my foot and needed some help with Lily. Ashley offered to pick her up and drop her off! Lily had a great day hanging out with Ashley and her pup, playing at the dog park, and walking around the neighborhood! Thanks so much!!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Greenbrae
Ashley was great! She was super responsive when I needed a last-minute dog sitter, and I felt confident leaving my puppy with her and her partner. I got lots of updates throughout the day and Greta got 2 walks with her sweet Dachshunds. Will absolutely work with Ashley again - thank you!
Amber was great! She took the trouble to come over for a "meet and greet" with Leo and Bailey the day before her job, which not only established a relationship in advance but gave us a chance to discuss the drill with them in unrushed fashion, ahead of time. Amber has a great chill way with dogs and is a reliable and cheerful person to work with. Would definitely use again.
Krystle was not only great with Leo and Bailey, bonding with them instantly and taking them on a wonderful Sunday afternoon walk, but endlessly patient and flexible with their owner, who kept screwing up, and changing, the requested date and service times. Krystle was lovely to deal with and we would happily engage her again--and again.
Ariane and her family are fantastic. We spend a lot of time with our dog, so she becomes pretty anxious when we leave her with other people. Ariane has the patience and calmness to allow her to settle in and have a good day. Ariane also lives in a very dog-friendly area that is perfect for a dog that needs some recreation. Our dog was, of course, excited to see me when I picked her up, but she had the type of chill that she only gets after a good day of exercise and love. Highly recommend Ariane.

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Greenbrae commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
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.
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 .
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
