“Bernie had such a lovely time with the crew! Kim and Jeff were so lovely, patient, and kind to him. We received plenty of photo and text updates throughout the day, which made us feel so confident about leaving our fur baby with separation anxiety in their care. Highly recommend ?”
“Chad took excellent care of my young and energetic greyhound with a lot of separation anxiety. When I picked her up she was happy and excited, but she didn’t show any signs of distress. Prior to my dog’s stay at his home Chad had invited us over for a meet&greet and he took a lot of time to inquire about my dog’s character and behaviors, which made me very confident that things would be alright. Chad was also willing to accommodated my travel schedule. I am happy with the experience and hope he will be available next time I have to go out of town.”
“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!”
“Pearl was an amazing sitter who took very good care of our dog, we had regular updates and they were so incredibly sweet with Clyde. They went the extra mile and we were so happy to find them last minute.”
About: I grew up with 6 pit bulls, taking sun baths with them in my backyard. I’ve volunteered in SF SPCA and donate monthly. My best friend aka Herita is a rescue, she’s been with me for over 3 years now. I believe animals have taught me how to love unconditionally and responsibly. Calm, trust and safety are my top priorities. I hope you give me the chance to connect with you and your fur baby/ babies. I work from home. I normally take Hera on a walk every morning for about 30 mins. Come back and hit the gym. After that I’m free. I can always head over in the am, afternoon or evenings. I have a fenced yard, Herita is spayed and loves to play with other dogs. Her bff is a 3 y/o Doberman. Which I take care of a couple of times a week (take her out on walks and feed her)
“Asha has been amazing with my pup, Rahi. She communicates super well and genuinely loves dogs. I get pictures and videos through the day and I’m so much at peace leaving my Rahi with her. Highly, highly recommend!!”
About: Hi, I’m Lynn! 👋 Nice to meet you :) If your dog loves fresh air, exploring new paths, and coming home completely tuckered out, they’re going to love hanging out with me. I specialize in outdoor adventures tailored to all shapes and sizes. Whether you have a big, high-energy breed who wants to tackle a multi-mile trail hike, or a smaller pup who prefers a brisk, stimulating neighborhood power-walk, I customize every outing to match your dog's specific stamina, pace, and size. Safety is always my top priority. I’m incredibly mindful of terrain, weather, and hydration, ensuring a tiny Chihuahua gets the same careful attention and safe handling as an enthusiastic German Shepherd. From dealing with the zoomies to offering patient guidance, I treat every dog like family. When your pup is with me, you can expect a reliable schedule, plenty of updates, and a very happy, sleepy dog returned to your doorstep. Let’s get your best friend out on their next great adventure! 🐾 🌳 🌲 🥾 🐕 • Monday through Friday: I am completely free and flexible in the afternoons after 2:00 PM. This is the perfect time for an energetic mid-day break, a long late-afternoon trail walk, or late-day doggy daycare while you finish up your workday. • Weekends (Saturday & Sunday): I have open availability (unless stated otherwise)! My weekends are wide open for extended adventures, daycare, or flexible walking schedules. 🐾 How I Care for Your Dog I provide safe, reliable, and loving care tailored to your dog’s needs. Whether we’re out for a walk, enjoying daycare, or stopping by for a visit, my goal is to keep your pup happy, comfortable, active, and well cared for while you’re away. You’ll always receive updates and photos for peace of mind.
“Meera took great care of my mini poodle puppy. She took him for a walk and paid special attention to his needs as a puppy who is too rambunctious at times. Meera was great to interact with because she is kind and thoughtful. I recommend her highly!”
“Our recently adopted puppy had his first doggy daycare stay with Beatryx. Beatryx made sure that we felt comfortable that our puppy would be introduced to other pups in a measured and controlled way, and that Beatryx would give us updates about our pup's day. Sure enough we got plenty of picture updates, our pup made friends, and was happy as a clam when we picked him up.”
“Sydney treated my dog as her own. Her space for them is lovely and she is kind and very accommodating to pets needs. I would bring my senior dog here again for sure ! Highly recommend”
“Kelly has been a great caregiver for our dog, Cali! We have been using Kelly twice a week for the last few weeks and hope to continue. Our dog is super excited to be dropped off there. Our active puppy gets lots of love and attention, playtime and walks and comes home all tuckered out. Kelly is also very responsive to messages and flexible when we have had schedule changes. I strongly recommend Kelly!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats of different kinds. My love for pets have been for as long as I can remember! Growing up, I have personally cared for medium-sized dogs, specifically a German shepherd and Pitbull, and also 3 different cats. I recently have lived in a house with 5 pit bulls and helped walk, feed and bathe each one for over a year. I currently do not own a pet, but am itching to own one soon. For now, I am happy to assist in bringing comfort and joy into your pet’s life. Anything to help make a family's home easier is what I strive for. I am currently working full time, but have a flexible work schedule that can accommodate to feeding/walking times. I am looking for anyone interested in board & care at my home (limit 2 dogs), occasional overnight or drop in pet-sitting, dog walks, feeding and/or bathing care for your pet. I live in a house with a fenced yard. I offer a safe space to care for your pet. I live with my husband who is also a pet lover. It will help us get out of the house for necessary walks and overall care. Please let me know if your dog is friendly with other dogs as I can host up to two dogs at a time.
“Amazing!!! Rollie had such a great time he literally slept from the time we arrived home till the next morning. I took him out once and right back to sleep he went so I know he had a great with with Tamara. Thank you so much for taking such great care of my pup and sending photos.”
“Alejandra is a fantastic sitter! We picked up our little girl happy and jolly after a day with her. I cannot thank her and her husband enough ❤️ she sent constant photos ,videos and updates throughout the day. Also, their puppy Nemo is adorable and so very friendly. If you want to have piece of mind about your dog knowing they'll be safe while having a great time, Alejandra is your sitter!”
“Krishna and her partner provided excellent care, attention and affection for my husky during my stay in S.F. They brought their sweet dog Milo out for meet and greet, all went well and my dog had a great stay. Highly recommended!”
“Dakota had a wonderful time with Kennia. She was very kind and communicative. In all of the pictures she sent Dakota looked like he was having a blast! 😊 Looking forward to more stays!”

Super pleased- Jonathan stepped up & accepted our dog sitting at the last minute- after our other dog sitter fell through. Absolutely appreciate the videos & pictures of our boys - Thank You Jonathan for taking care of our boys- I would recommend Jonathan & definitely use his service again .. 👍
Tamara was very accommodating for a last mintue reservation. We appreciated her flexibility. Calliope takes a little extra care to win her over--Tamara did an excellent job. Tamara's pup Sidney got along great with our pups. I would highly recommend her she is warm and caring and knows her stuff when it comes to dogs.
Amber helped me by watching my two little doggies for back to back 12 hour days! My sitter at my departure city fell through and I had to bring my doggies to the SF area, but had nonstop events where I couldn’t have the dogs. She was a life saver! She was super communicative and nice. A great experience.
I was visiting from out of town and needed someone to watch my dog. I met Cindy and her husband and they were so friendly and accommodating. I ended up leaving my dog bowie with them for several hours. He was in a great mood when I returned and I knew he had a good time. He played with 2 other dogs and went on a long walk. I will definitely book with Cindy when I am in town again. I know I wont have to worry about bowie. They did a great job!
Sydney is caring and a dog and cat mom herself. She can keep your pet totally separate from her animals in her studio garage that has been converted to a pet suite for multiple day stays. There's a loveseat and plenty of floor space. She has a small rear patio area for sniffing and potty breaks. She is happy to take short or long walks with your dog and can do hills. Stella feels safe with Sydney and that means the world to me as I am at work all day.
As a first time Rover user, we hit the jackpot with Juliana and Katherine. It was our pup’s first experience at daycare (he thought it was a play date); and he had so much fun and adventure. He was so excited to go the next day that he pulled me up the stairs to their house. He had two sweet pups to play with and a fun yard to explore. Juliana was very attentive and shared pictures; I didn’t have any worries. Highly recommend!
It was last minute searching for a dog sitter. Dacyl responded my request pretty quickly and invited my dogs to meet her dog before I decided. She was very sweet with Jet and Luna and sent me several photos and messages. They had a great time with her. Thank you, Dacyl!
Jason and his wife are some of the nicest people. They took good care of my pups during their stay. Kept me updated and very accommodating. I ran into some last minute work situations on the day of my pups' stay and was going to be late to our agreed and planned pick up time. Jason accommodated to my late arrival request and assured me the pups will be well taken care of in the extra hour. Will definitely come back should I ever need a sitter again!
