My husband and I have been using Rover many times so I know how you feel when you have to leave your pup at sitters during working or vacation. No worry! I will take care of your furbaby 24/7 like my own and send you some pictures and videos every day so you can see how your baby is doing. I normally accept up to 8 dogs depending on their pawsonalities.

Information Akiko S. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know any special needs or behavior of your pup that I should know before taking care of your dog. I am looking forward to seeing you and your furbaby!! I do not accept any aggressive dog for my family and for other visitors.

A typical day

Your dog will have plenty of play time in my backyard. I try to take boarding dogs for a walk but it depends on weather/schedule. No walking included for day care. I don’t walk big dog who pulls on walks. Your pups have access to the backyard anytime they want during day time. I have extra dog beds so they can take a nap/sleep anywhere they want. Normally they prefer sleeping in my bedroom and they are all welcome. If your pups usually sleep in their crates, feel free to bring them so I can set it up for them.

Pet care experience

Hello, I have a 10 years old husky and your furry friend will love him! My dog Hunter is very friendly and sweet to any size/kind of dogs. I have two teenage boys and they LOVE doggies so your pup will receive lots of love and attention from my family as well. •Proof of vaccination is required for daycare/boarding 1-Rabies. 2-DAPP/DHPP. 3-Bordetella • Please bring your dog’s own food, treats, collar and leash. • You can also bring a doggie bed, crate, toys and treats if needed. • Day care is basically 8 hours, between 9:00 am~5:00 pm, but I can shift it by a few hours if needed. If you need to pick up after 5:00 pm, it will be considered as a boarding. • Boarding is based on 24 hours pickup from dropping off.

Hershey was very well taken care of and we were informed often with pictures and videos. We are thankful that Hershey could spend time at Akiko's house while we were away.

Akiko took great care of our dog. My wife was nervous leaving him for 5 nights but she immediately put us at ease as she was sending videos of him as soon as dropped him off. You can tell how much she cares and the dogs are having fun. Will be using her again!

Absolutely great! Akiko was a wonderful sitter for our dog for several days. She sent many pictures and videos. And she was attentive and sweet to not only our dog but all the other dogs in her care. Would highly recommend!

Akiko is awesome! We had her watch our Labrador retriever for 4 days while we were on vacation. She sent us around 100 photos and videos of our dog Daisy. She would even video her eating her food and gave us so many updates! She let her sleep in her bed since Daisy was used to sleeping with someone and took her on walks. All of the dogs Akiko watches are very well behaved and are friendly. She ensures all her pups are up to date on their vaccinations so none of them get sick. When we got home, Daisy was excited to see us, but it was obvious she missed being at Akiko’s house. Daisy is a very spoiled dog and I would venture to say that Akiko even spoiled her more than we do. I just can’t say enough about how wonderful Akiko is. She is so engaged with her dogs and it’s obvious she loves them and treats them like they’re her own. We will definitely be using Akiko again in the future! She’s amazing!!
