“Simba had a great day at Elise's. She went out of her way to ensure he had the greatest care. She kept sending pictures and updates throughout the day and was always reachable when needed. Highly recommend her!”


“We were so lucky to find Jeangbin and her family. Our little Luna could not have been in better hands! She made this experience so easy for me and was so great with updates, that included the best pictures and cutest videos of our Luna. I never once had to wonder how my pup was doing and I wouldn’t hesitate to book Jeangbin again! Luna also got to spend her time with Kim, their sweet and patient retriever and their new puppy! She cared for Luna as if she were her own pup and for that I am eternally grateful. You really couldn’t ask for a better person to look after your fur babies! Thank you for everything Jeangbin and family! You guys are the best!”


“Thank you Su! Roxie had such a great time and was happy. Su takes lots of pictures and communicates well with dog owners. Definitely using Su for future dog sitting. Her place was perfect for a dog as well.”


“My dog is super picky with sitter but he fell in love with Jie right away! He and Jie’s doggie also gets along very well. I am very glad to find Jie as she is a wonderful and responsible sitter who follows all the instructions I have provided to her for Mocha. I picked up a calm and happy dog at the end of the day!”


“Set alarm was kind and attentive to my pet needs. She kept me informed throughout the day with pictures and messages. Wally came home happy and tired. I’m glad I found someone for my future needs.”


“Alejandra & Leonardo were really good with Paisley. In the pictures they sent me, she looked content. They took her for walks and allowed her to run for a bit. She loved that and when I went to pick her up, she seemed to want to continue running rather than coming home with me just yet. Haha. I’d rebook them if I needed Day Care again.”


“Very thankful for Dini for taking care of our 2 big boys! It was our first daycare experience and my 2 dogs had so much fun. She gave us constant updates of pictures and videos which we appreciate so much. Both boys were in good hands and we felt safe leaving them to Dini. Will definitely come back and recommend her to everyone!”


“Rose was excellent! Super flexible and took good care of my 7 month old puppy. We did a meet and greet prior to her babysitting and when I brought my puppy back for sitting, he was super excited to see her! It looked like he had a blast from day care & when he came home he was so worn out lol. I’m very happy she was kind to him and kept him stimulated and entertained! Would definitely book again”


“Jaimie and Chewie yet again, was so good to my pup Milo! Jaimie sends me photo updates throughout the day & the pictures of Milo and Chewie are so adorable! Thank you again for taking care of Milo, he always has a blast with you both!”


About: I am a dog mom since 2020 when we got our first dog, a golden doodle and since then I have been around him and his friends. Dogs keep me energetic and lively. I talk to them and treat them like babies. My motherly instincts for dogs are no different from taking care of a human being. Since I got my baby, I have researched and have been enhancing my knowledge to take better care of him each day. Whenever I get an opportunity to stay around any dog, it makes me feel very blissful. I have many dogs in my family and friends groups. I keep my house very clean so they do not eat anything from ground. Even for emergencies, I have made an emergency kit which is ready with Charcoal, ear wipes, tweezer and 3% hydrogen peroxide (to induce vomiting) in case they ingest something. I know how to handle normal doggy issues that could occur and even how to handle an emergency situation. If needed I can go to vet immediately. For info, nearest vet to my place is 1 mile ( Golden paws Vet clinic) and nearest emergency (Beacon Veterinary specialist) is 6.5 miles. Your pets safety will be my TOP priority. I am full time at home and will have dedicated time to spend with dogs. I play with them, do stimulating activities as I do with my dog. Your dog will be no different to my own. I have a fenced yard and a long side yard where I play fetch 2-3 times with my dog. I am very creative with playing activities. I am well versed in case of emergency as I keep myself well informed with the knowledge needed to keep pets safe. Important note : Please make sure your dog is up to date with shots and rabies vaccine. Provide a proof you first bring in your dog for day care or boarding.

About: Taking care of animals has been a part of my life since I was six, looking after everything from dogs and cats to fish, tortoises, and birds. Seriously, I could spend all afternoon just watching them! That passion, especially for dogs, has only grown. Since I work from home with a flexible schedule, I love to share with your furry companions. With my remote and flexible work, your will get consistent attention and plenty of one-on-one time. I'm here to provide dedicated care whenever they need it. I have a fenced yard. When your pet stays with me, they become a part of my guests. They'll get plenty of supervised playtime in a safe, pet-friendly environment. We'll stick to their regular feeding schedule, if needed. For dogs, there will be regular walks and potty breaks throughout the day. I also love to send photo updates too. My home offers a cozy, stress-free setting where your pet can relax and feel right at home.

“Yukako was an excellent dogsitter! She sent lots of photo and video updates which gave me peace of mind during the day. She was kind enough to wash and neatly pack away the food bowls for me. My dog was excited to see her both times I dropped her off so I know she has a great time with her and her dogs.”


About: *Accepting bookings for drop-ins and walks up to 10 miles from Newark. Save 25% with me by booking with me my first couple months on Rover (Aug, Sept, Nov)! Discount already applied to listed prices.* Hello! My name is Naomi - I’m an animal lover as well as a computer science graduate with a background in tech and music. I’ve had pets since I was about six - 2 dogs growing up (a lab and a lab mix), and more recently, I had a beautiful, loving pitbull-bulldog-lab mix who was a big part of my life until last year. He’s now with a sweet family on a large property where he has plenty of room to run and explore. In college, I had a cat who I initially found hanging out near my home without an owner, and he was super playful and intelligent. After showing him attention, he followed me home, and I ended up keeping him and naming him Genius. There were other cats in the area that’d hang out together, but he stood out from the rest and was a sweet, approachable lone ranger. In addition to having pets of my own, I’ve been trusted by family and family friends to watch over their pets (both cats and dogs). Animals have always been family to me, and being around them feels grounding and natural. I’m warm, playful, and detail-oriented. I also enjoy having a furry exercise/walking buddy. I’ll be sure to treat your pet with care, empathy, and attention. My schedule is flexible/open at the moment so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your pups. I have availability on weekdays and weekends. I prioritize creating a safe, comfortable, and loving environment for every pet in my care. I follow instructions carefully regarding feeding, exercise, and any special needs.

About: Caring for pets isn’t just a job to me—it’s pure happiness. As a proud pet mom to my lovable Berner, I know every pet is an angel who deserves the very best. I genuinely love being around these sweet creatures—it makes me feel like a Disney princess with furry friends always by my side. When your pet stays with me, I treat them like my own, giving them all the love, play, and attention they need to feel right at home. I also love capturing special moments! Many pet parents have told me the photos I share radiate so much joy and fun that their pets might not even want to come back home. Cat parents are often amazed that even their shy little ones come out to say hello—they’ve joked I must have a magical princess charm. I can’t wait to meet your furry family member and make them feel safe, happy, and loved. I work full-time from home during the week, so I'm available for day care any day throughout the week. For drop-in visits and dog walking, I'm available on weekdays after 5 PM. For pet boarding and house sitting, I'm available on weekends and holidays. Safety and comfort are my top priorities. I live in a secure, single-family home with a large, fenced yard. The neighborhood is peaceful and pet-friendly. You can rest assured your pet will be safe, happy, and well cared for in a cozy home filled with warmth and love.

About: I’ve been a dog owner since 2017, with my first corgi girl Rosen coming to me. Now that my fur family grew to 2, since Rowen my second corgi came to my family. I’ve been given them my whole heart and my love, the same thing I would be pleased to give to your fur baby! I have a very flexible schedule since I’m studying for my grad degree remotely right now. I’m free on most of days and will have plenty of time and energy to play with and take care of your fur babies! I live in a single family house with a fenced backyard, which provides a spacious environment for your fur baby to stay in. My own Corgis can also spend time with your baby if desired, and I can also keep them separated from your pup if it’s not what you wanted. I’m very flexible and willing to give whatever you would like for your baby, so please feel free to let me know your needs!

About: I have a beautiful cat, Charlie. I learned a lot about cats from him. I’ve also had the privilege of working with Much Love (dog foster), NKLA (No-Kill Los Angeles, dog care taker) and the Marin Humane Society ( cat care taker), where I gained hands-on experience caring for pets of all shapes, sizes, and temperaments. More recently I fostered Timon, a handsome husky, and found a furrever home for him. I love pets and have lots of patience. I’m currently working from home. And my working schedule is flexible. I can work around the schedule to fit pet care in. So I am available most time of the week. I have a fenced yard. My cat Charlie, he just doesn’t care. He is ok with other cats and dogs, based on past experience. No children at home.

“Ushma was an amazing host! She was very flexible- she took my last minute reservation and allowed for an earlier pickup. Ushma and her pup greeted us and she sent photos and videos of them playing, updates on activities, and Jett on his walk. Thank you so much!! Would highly recommend and would book again.”

Yunzhen P.
“Jane is my girlfriend, and we have two super cute corgis who are basically our kids. She loves dogs so much — like, very very very much. Being around dogs makes her genuinely happy, and you can totally tell the dogs feel the same way. She’s always laughing, playing with them, and turning even a simple walk into a fun little adventure. Jane is super caring, always on top of things, and just really great to be around — for both people and pups. Anyone’s dog would be lucky to spend time with her!”
