“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!”

“VJ and Matthew took amazing care of my dog Willa! They were so communicative and sent lots of pictures and videos. Willa seemed to have a great time with their dogs and feel comfortable despite her anxiety. Will definitely be booking again!”


“Koa was initially apprehensive about being left behind but was having a great time only an hour or so later. When we picked her up, she was relaxed and, while happy to see us, would have been fine hanging out longer. This stay was just a few hours so we could go out to dinner, but I would bring Koa back for a longer stay.”


“Jamie was terrific! My anxious pup fell asleep in her care the first visit which is always such a relief to see! Pick up and drop off were easy. Excellent and clear communication. Thank you! Will book again :)”

“Courtney was great! Sent us lots of updates and let us know how our dog did throughout the day with rover card and pictures. Our pup has separation anxiety and can be unsure around new people but walked right up to Courtney and didn't look back :) Came home happy and exhausted!”

Playing, giving them treats, and making sure they stayed within neighborhood bounds were a regular for my brother and me. I’ve also had the honor to house sit for a variety of dogs and cats. I’ve cared for the needs of senior cats to playful pups to independent rescues, to mischievous kittens. With this experience, I am happy to care for and get to know more of your beloved furred ones! … It is also a special interest of mine to do training for dogs. I believe in using Positive Reinforcement and loving gentleness when it comes time to handling animals. I’m currently working towards getting my CBATI-KA through Grisha Stewart’s Academy and becoming Fear Free certified. I love continually learning through different trainers and educators under the CCPDT’s guidelines of LIMA (Least Intrusive Minimal Aversive). —- I also was certified with Pet CPR Aid with ProHero Training. —- Let’s book a Meet & Greet! Scheduling: I work as a FT freelancer, so please respond in a timely manner and communicate as much in advance, so I can best fit you and your pet into my schedule/space! — Some things I’d like to know from you: When is your best availability for an initial Meet & Greet? What is the size, breed, and temperament of your animal(s)? Are you ok with me posting pics of your pets? — Thank you! + Please note I will always value you and your fur babies’ comfortability first. … Your pet(s) and their personalities are the Star of the show! — Please let me know about your pet’s personal likes/dislikes, favorite toys, treats, any allergies, and/or particular preferences for comfort & joy. I also have experience administering medication, if needed and have experience (for both dogs and cats) with preparing supplements / added medicine to be mixed in with their meals. A personal side interest of mine is also doing training for dogs. So if your dog has any particular behaviors, you’d like to be worked on, let me know and we can work on tackling an issue together.
“Noni was so great and Tahoe enjoyed his stay! He came back with a new toy & we were so happy to get so many updates. She was patient and understanding as he is a shelter dog finding his rhythm in the world.”

“Nancy was absolutely wonderful. She took the time to truly understand Jackson and Theodore—their temperaments, their personalities—and introduced them to her pack with so much care and intention. Nancy sent thoughtful updates and photos that gave me total peace of mind and made me smile. It’s clear how much she genuinely cares for the dogs in her care. Nancy made me feel completely comfortable leaving my boys with her, which is everything. I’m so grateful we found her and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a loving, attentive sitter. We’re already looking forward to their next play date!”

“Brittany was really nice and our dog Burt seemed to do really well with her! At drop off he just went right with her! He got a few walks in and got along with Brittany's dog Basco. Burt generally prefers chill-er companions and it seems like Basco was that. Would definitely return to Brittany for future care.”

When I’m in a client’s home, I treat it with the same respect and care—I follow their instructions closely, make sure pets have everything they need, and give them lots of love and company while their owner is away.
About: I’ve cared for dogs my whole life and have always loved being around animals. Growing up, I regularly helped care for my family’s dogs whenever they needed support, which gave me plenty of hands-on experience with feeding, walking, playing, and making sure pets feel safe and loved. I’m also a cat parent to my two kitties, Michi and Kiki, whom I’ve raised since they were just 8 weeks old. They’ll soon be two years old! Caring for them has given me daily experience with cat care, routines, playtime, and creating a calm, comfortable environment for pets. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and treat every pet with the same love and attention I give my own. I am currently a master’s student at UC Berkeley. Most days of the week, I end classes at 1pm, so I will be available after that, Sundays and Saturdays the whole day! I have a large apartment for your pup to play in! I also have an outside space for your pup to play in with supervision. Your pet will be my priority during our time together, and rest assured that they will be treated with the utmost respect, love, and kindness!
“Jake is always so communicative and ensures honeybuns is well taken care of. He goes above and beyond always and honeybuns always rushes to him when she stays with him. Thank you so much Jake!”

“Jesse was so great with our puppy. His Shepards welcomed our pup as one of their own and we are so happy to see our pup is having a fun time while his owners are at work. Our pup always comes home tuckered out and is excited to go every morning! We will continue to use Jesse for all our dog sitting needs!”

We both grew up in households our whole lives caring for pups of all sizes from energetic German Shepherds, playful Shitzus, and sweet Golden Retrievers! Between Edelis and I, we have over 20 years of experience. After recently moving from LA, we spend our weekends exploring new parks, new neighborhoods, and staying active outdoors around SF. We miss having our own fur babies around, so we’re excited to share our home and plenty of love with yours! Whether it’s long walks, playtime, or cozy downtime, your dog will be treated like family ❤️ Our weekdays are structured yet flexible, and our weekends are completely dedicated to pets.

We also have a car for transportation including any pet emergencies or vet visits if ever needed. Whether we’re caring for dogs in our home or yours, we follow your pup’s usual schedule for feeding, walks, and playtime to keep things consistent. We are more than happy to send regular photo and text updates so you can relax knowing your furry friend is happy.
Oak Center dog parents share their Rover experiences
Sarah was wonderful with Bijou! He is a well-behaved dog but has a ton of energy, and it was clear that Sarah understood his personality perfectly. You could easily tell from the pictures she shared that he was having a blast. She took him on a couple of walks, and he came home completely happy and tired out from all the fun. I highly recommend Sarah for doggy day care and will definitely use her services again!

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 am so happy to have found Gretchen! She is a lovely person who obviously loves dogs and cats (I have both) and has clear extensive experience in caring for them. My dog Sidney typically spends a day each week in her care when I work far from home. I have peace of mind when my baby is with Gretchen; she takes her on multiple lovely walks each day to beautiful places like the Emeryville Marina and has a comfy inviting space where Sidney obviously feels very at home. I highly recommend Gretchen to care for your fur babies!

Julia is awesome. I'm looking forward to the next time she can care for our pup. She went above and beyond when I had a few snafus in my day before dropping my dog off, took the dog for a spectacular walk, and then gave me a fantastic dinner spot recommendation.

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!
