“Lee was GREAT with Carter! Made him feel at home, kept him safe and happy. She also sent videos and pics without me asking which was super nice. Her home is spacious, clean and has an open backyard for the dogs to play in. Her dogs also got along well with my little Carter. I’ll definitely be booking her again.”


“Kelly is absolutely amazing! We feel so fortunate to have found her and we knew from the moment we met her our dog was in great hands. She sent photos and videos throughout the day and he was happy when we picked him up.”


“We had our dog stay with Osaze for daycare and she had a great time. Osaze was quick to respond and check in text and photo updates. He is so kind and understanding of our dog’s particularities being newly adopted from the shelter. He was a good companion for Greta while I was at work. Would definitely book again.”


“Baxter has stayed Andrea and her pups twice for daycare, with hopefully more days to come! Andrea has a gentle, kind spirit and seems very attuned to a dog's needs. At our meet & greet, she asked great questions about Baxter and his routines. She provided fun updates with pics a few times a day -- much appreciated!”


“Athena is great! Rockee is always excited to see her in the morning, and I appreciate her flexibility with my work schedule and open communication. She’s also been helping with Rockee’s reactivity and I’ve noticed a calmer demeanor when he’s around other dogs. Thank you Athena!”


“Lilly was incredibly attentive, providing frequent updates, photos, and videos of our dog Hana. Seeing Hana so relaxed and happy under her care was simply wonderful.”

“Poppy was welcomed early in the morning and stayed all day to play with Milkshake. I think she felt right at home when she arrived. She didn’t hesitate to explore the house and seemed unconcerned when I left. Christopher sent pictures during her visit ( but unfortunately, unfortunately, I was out of cell phone range and didn’t see them till later).”


About: Hi I’m Damian 👋🏻 I love walking dogs of all sizes and breeds. I walk dogs because it’s fun and fulfilling for me. I have flexibility to be available when it is best for you and your pup. I’ll be consistent and very easy to work with! I look forward to meeting you and your dog! I work remotely. I’m happy to flex my work schedule based on you and your dogs needs! Let me know what works best for you! I will walk your dog and treat your dog as if it were mine! Please share you and your dog’s needs and safety concerns and we can put together a plan. :)

About: My dog Robin will be your dog’s playmate! He will tucker your dog out playing in the backyard and around the house. We’ll go on walks too! If your dog needs space, don’t worry—Robin knows and respects boundaries. Dogs are like family here! I’ve taken care of my own dogs, from puppies to senior care. I had my first dog for 15 years, and my new terrier is 2 years old. Whether you’re just dropping your dog off for the day while you’re at work, or they are staying overnight. I’ll take care of them with the same love and attention my own dog gets. I work from home, so I am available for the dogs 24/7. We can take morning, lunchtime, and evening walks or just play in the backyard, depending on your pet’s needs. My 12 lb terry is 2 years old and loves to play and relax. Dogs have access to the fenced backyard at any time. I do ask for pre-meeting for new clients to test your dogs temperament and weather, they’ll get along nicely with my dog. (Unfortunately folks have misrepresented their dogs in the past)

About: I love little dogs! I enjoy connecting with them and getting to know their quirky little personalities. I grew up with a toy poodle and helped with my neighbors' dogs for years - walking them, hanging out with them during the day, and even keeping them for a night or a week. For the past 4 years I've also had a sweet mini aussiedoodle, Murphy. If you're a first time Rover user, get $20 off your booking with me! Use this code: PARKERD42569 I work part-time and mostly from home, and have a lot of flexibility right now. I can do one-time gigs and would love to build ongoing relationships! - BOARDING includes roughly 24 hours of doggy care and I am flexible about start and end time. If you need longer than 24 hours, an extended care fee will apply. If you need less, ask me about negotiating price. - DAY CARE can be 8-5, or 4-10, or any stretch between 8am and 11pm. - DROP INs and WALKS can be anytime between 9am and 9pm. Please let me know if your dog has separation anxiety or can be left alone briefly if I needed to run out (for example, the laundry is on the ground floor of my building). I give doggos a lot of personalized attention and try to anticipate their needs. I'm good at reading the vibe and knowing if a dog needs more or less of something. I am very safety conscious and will follow whatever guidance you offer, and communicate with you as much as you like!

“Aman was excellent with Deuce. He came back happy, excited, and ready to play. He sent me a pic of Deuce while in his care, and gave me updates during his time there. I’d definitely book with Aman again. He was pleasant, polite, and kept me updated. Great vibes all around.”


“Thank you Rachel, super helpful find in a pinch! Rachel was communicative and Mochi had a safe, great, and brief stay.”


About: I'm a lifelong dog lover and proud dog mom to Zoe, my sweet ~5 year old husky. Dogs have always been a huge part of my life — from caring for my own, to looking after family pets, to volunteering at my local Animal Control. No matter where I am, the best part of my day is always spotting a pup strolling by. They never fail to brighten my mood! I’m currently offering both doggy daycare and overnight stays at my home, and I’d love to welcome your furry friend into our routine. Zoe and I are active and love long walks around the neighborhood and near Lake Merritt, so your dog will get plenty of exercise, fresh air, and playtime. Whether your pup needs a walk, a cozy overnight stay, or just some good company during the day, you can rest assured they’ll be treated like family — with love, patience, and lots of belly rubs. I have experience with dogs of all shapes, sizes, and energy levels, and I’m committed to creating a calm, happy, and safe space for every pup in my care. Looking forward to meeting you and your four-legged friend! 🐶💛 I'm currently working from home so I can be at home all day with your pup. I live in a quiet neighborhood with many friendly dogs and can easily go on walks every 2-4 hours between meetings. I care for pets in my home with the utmost love and care. I always communicate with the pet owners ahead of time to learn about any special care or routine the dog has (specific bathroom breaks, meal times, nap times, medications, etc). Dogs are allowed on my furniture and I have multiple dog beds, cots, crates, and toys to create a welcoming and fun environment for your pup.

“My 8 month old puppy willingly went with Nancy, and was happy after spending all day with her and the other dogs. Nancy provided updates throughout the day including pictures, and when a question came up she sent a video to show me the behavior - which we were able to solve quickly! I feel very comfortable and at ease knowing our puppy is in good hands with her!”


“Libby had the best time with Neia! She had so much fun with plenty of attention, playtime, outside time, and window gazing - all of her favorite things. She can't wait to come back!”


About: I’ve been caring for pets since 2017, having grown up with a couple of dogs during my childhood. Additionally, I've gained valuable insights into pet care through my work at a holistic dog store in SF, providing me with a wealth of knowledge in this field. Pet care fits in perfectly to my schedule. I just graduated from SFSU. I also own a small business that I run out of my household. So technically my schedule is pretty available most days. The way I take care of pets of by showing a lot of attention. For example, if they are not in my eye view I will make sure to move myself to where they are so I may keep a close eye on them. I also make sure all doors and windows are locked so they can’t get out. I also regularly take dogs on walks to strengthen, get fresh air and use the bathroom. I try my very best to make pets feel happy and welcomed when being around me.

About: Hello! My name is Jason, and I love dogs! My wife and I are both self employed and therefore home for most of most days, so your dog would very rarely be left alone. When that is the case though, our extremely friendly female dog Ripley is great company! Exercise is a priority around here! I live super close to the lake and we definitely take advantage of that on a regular basis. I have a fenced in yard and plenty of tennis balls! While I love puppies, (who doesn't?) I also have a special place in my heart for senior dogs, and am well versed in administering meds if necessary. I've also worked as an EMT and believe in high standards of care, but mostly in having fun. I recently reinstated my account which is why i do not have a recent review, but nothing has changed since last time! I would love to hangout for your dog(s) anytime! We are self employed and home most of the time, so it's generally easy to give as many potty breaks or attention that your baby may need whenever! Hugs, treats, toys, tug, fetch, cuddles and general attentive care catered to each individual dog- we're all different afterall For your peace of mind we will obviously provide regular photos and updates!

Our dog loves going on walks with her. When I am out of town for work, I can trust her to care for my dog with love, and be respectful of my home. Never had any issues or miscommunications. She walks our dog 1-3 times a week for 20-45 minutes.”


20. Jason Z.
“Oh man- Jason is so cool! I live in the Bay but travel to LA for work often and always leave my dog Jamie with Jason if available while I'm away. He sends me pics and I often feel like Jamie is happier with him and Olive than with me! Jamie is an older dog who needs to take prescription pills in the morning and evenings and Jason has always been good with that. It's nice to know my baby is in good hands while I'm away! TY Jason!”
