“Our dogs had a great day hanging out with Paul and Mimi. They took great photos and such adorable updates throughout the day. Drop off was super easy and so was pick up. They accommodated my chill senior dog and cuddle bug of a small dog. Paul took the time to really get to know my dogs during the meet and greet and understand what each of them need during a stay. The dogs enjoyed having the space of a yard to explore as part of their doggy daycare adventure. I highly recommend Paul and Mimi!”

“Sam did a fantastic job caring for our 7 month old puppy! She clearly knows a lot about how to work with dogs and puppies. She was extremely communicative and sent us several photos and videos. Thank you, Sam!”

About: Both my husband and I had dogs when we were growing up. Over the last 7 years we have adopted two dogs from the SPCA and have had a blast getting to know them and incorporating them into our family. As our kids grow up and move onto college, we are looking for more furry friends to keep us entertained! Right now, we have an 8 yr old Australian Cattle dog/ German Shepard mix who gets two exciting walks around the city daily with feeding and medication routines. Steve works from home and is available to go in the backyard frequently with your dog. We have a fenced in backyard for elderly or younger pets who need frequent pee breaks. We have lived through the aging process and have big hearts for those furry friends who need more attention.
“Robert and Marty are such wonderful sitters! I absolutely love the pictures they send all day long and Hank was so excited to return to their house each morning. See y’all again soon!”

“Mikele was fantastic with Archie! She was flexible when we were running way late for drop off. She sent lots of photos and made us feel so at ease while we were out. We hope Archie gets to see Mikele again soon!”

“Chris was an absolutely awesome sitter for our dog, Milo! He saved us in a super last minute pinch and was flexible on timing, adaptable to Milo's needs, and returned our Milo happy and tired from a sunset walk. We will 100% be reaching out to Chris again - thank you!!!!!”

“Cesar and his husband were flexible with the timing I needed, and have a great place for pups!! My girl came back happy and I will definitely be using them again!”

“Jennifer is awesome and we highly recommend her! Our family is new to the Bay Area and we were nervous about leaving our pup with someone new. But Jennifer sent lots of photos and updates to put our minds at ease. Bear got to visit Fort Funston with her crew and her house is perfect for a pet that loves other dogs and exercise. We will absolutely be rebooking her services!”
“Can't say enough good things about Renee. Great communication, multiple updates with photos throughout the day showing a happy and relaxed pup. Rocky immediately bonded with Renee. She was sensitive to his moods and took him on extra walks if needed. He loves looking out the window and hanging with Colby (her pup). Rocky has high anxiety and when i drop him off in the morning, he's excited to see her and is totally relaxed in her home. We will be regular clients for sure.”

“Gage is so awesome! Our nervous, separation anxiety girl had the best day hanging with new friends + Gage, she slept SO well when we picked her up. Gage sent us pictures all day. Truckee had a blast!”

“Whitney and Chris were great with our pup Mocha! They sent updates and photos and I could tell how much fun he was having. I would definitely trust them both to watch Mocha again.”

“Amazing! Took a trip to SF and was worried about finding a dog sitter for the day. Very trustworthy and glad he took such great care of her. Definitely will trust him again with my Brisket.”


About: Experience: -Canine separation anxiety, resource guarding, leash reactivity, and phobias -Sprenger and E-Collar tools -Clicker training -Puppies -Senior pups DOG FOSTERING, Oakland, CA and Chapel Hill, NC 2011, 2014, 2015 Fostered and trained dogs and multiple puppy litters; Introduced dogs to forever-families KENNEL MANAGER, FAIRBANKS, AK 2012 Conditioned Yukon Quest 300 and Iditarod sled team dogs; socialized puppy litter; maintained a kennel of over 30 dogs KENNEL ASSISTANT, Winston-Salem, NC 2007 I have fostered dogs, moved to Alaska to train sled dogs, and even adopted my own, Wilfred, from a litter my housemates and I rescued from a kill shelter. Before my dog, I underestimated the role that genetics play in canine personality and behavioral issues. However, having stayed in touch with the families that adopted Wilfred's siblings, I now know that each dog's psychological predispositions can present despite years of regular exercise, socialization, and positive reinforcement. Through the help of two great trainers, I have come to learn Wilfred's needs on a deeper level and he's a calmer and more confident dog for it. I would apply these formalized skills in working with your dog. Whether it's walks, runs, playtime, training reinforcement, medication administration, or anything else, I will give your dog the same structure, attention, and love that I give Wilfred. I work full time in healthcare but my schedule allows for flexibility to meet your pets' needs. Letting me know your pets' routine will help me to keep things consistent for them while you're away. Currently, I am not accepting boarding requests and am only available for home stays. If this changes in the future, I will be sure to update my profile.
“Remy had a wonderful time with Ivy! She had lots of excursions and romps around the park with Ivy’s other dogs - she had so much fun! Thanks, Ivy! Remy will be back!”

“Lily provided daycare at her home to my one gear old mini aussie as she was recovering from getting spayed. She followed the schedule I gave her, sent lots of pics, and my dog was happy to see her in the morning, wiggling her little butt, which is always a good sign. We would definitely use her again.”


“We were visiting San Francisco and seeing a Giants game so we decided to leave our dog Winnie with Betty for the day. She was exceptional in every way! Great communication, updates throughout the day and lots of pictures! This was our first time ever leaving Winnie with a stranger and she typically takes a long time to warm up to new people so naturally we were a little nervous about leaving her for the day but Betty did an excellent job of making Winnie feel comfortable and secure.”

“Danica was a dream to work with! She was flexible, professional, and a great communicator. Biscuit can be a little bit nervous with new sitters, but she clearly put him at ease with her kindness and calm energy. She sent tons of updates, photos, and videos. I felt completely comfortable leaving my dog with Danica and will absolutely return to her in the future.”

Inner Sunset dog parents share their Rover experiences
Daniele was extremely communicative and ensured that my mini poodle Isla had a wonderful day! Isla went on many walks and was even able to play with some other small dogs - which she loves! Excellent sitter - wouldn't hesitate to leave my pup with Daniele again.

Sam was EXCELLENT!!! Great communication and took our reservation as a last minute booking. It was our first time using ROVER and she was super patient with me as I figured everything out. I will definitely use her service again when returning to UCSF medical center!
Mengying is incredible - my dogs adore her and are excited every time they get to go see her. She truly cares for them like they were her own, and takes them on lots of fun walks and park adventures. Great communication, photo/video updates, and just a lovely person. Can’t recommend her highly enough!

Gage was great with Ziggy during his first week of daycare. He takes the dogs on several walks throughout the day and even brought them to the beach one day. He sent lots of photos and provided detailed updates on how Ziggy’s day went. Overall, Ziggy was very well cared for, and I’ll definitely continue using Gage.

Edison had a great day with Gabrielle and her roommate. Edison was happy to greet her in the morning so hand off early was easy. Picked up a tired happy pup. Appreciated her understanding of Edison’s quirks and needs. So thankful to have more people in Edison’s care family.
Renee and Christopher are wonderful. My senior dog loves going to stay with them. They are loving and kind and accommodating to my dog’s eating needs. It is such a relief to know our dog Jeffrey is in good hands when we are away. They provide me with photos and anecdotes throughout the day.

Anthony was great!! My pup can be a little shy when meeting new people but Anthony assured me all would be well. Mellow quickly settled in and all of the pictures Anthony sent put me at ease. He had a great time with the other doggies and was a tired pup at the end of the night. Will definitely book with Anthony again!

Marie was amazing with my 5-month old puppy! She was extremely communicative, helpful, and flexible. Marie goes the additional mile to ensure your pet is well taken care of, and you can see clearly how much she loves animals. I really appreciated all her help and will be a returning customer!

Lily provided daycare at her home to my one gear old mini aussie as she was recovering from getting spayed. She followed the schedule I gave her, sent lots of pics, and my dog was happy to see her in the morning, wiggling her little butt, which is always a good sign. We would definitely use her again.
