“Bola did a great job with Hendricks. She is very pleasant. He was comfortable and had no issues with the stay…. will definitely book again. I’m working with her on training my other dog as well. Thank you!”


“Best Doggy sitter ever! This is my puppy's 2nd home. Thank you Candace and Francesca for making Sunny feel at home, every time she's with you. She's always so happy to see you.”

About: I’ve taken care of my own dog and cat for 7 years and before then was the go to sitter for all my friends with pets! I’m also a PhD student in psychology working in animal behaviors. Since young, I understand animals and respect them: how we treat them influences their behaviors. I’ve got the heart and the training to give your babies the best care they deserve when you are away! My schedule is flexible as long as we communicate in advance. My weekdays are mostly spent at home for academic work, and can adjust for drop in visits easily. I have a comfy apartment with one dog and one cat. They’ll keep your baby company if you board with us. I’m skilled in introducing new animals to each other, I try to adjust to each animals temperaments. For all services, I appreciate your tips as you know them the best!

“Amazing, attentive, and so caring. Her dogs are soooo nice too! My dog will be coming very often and I definitely recommend!!!! Very spacious as well my dog had her own room. 🫶🏼”


“Ashley was a wonderful sitter for my dog Lincoln! She was extremely communicative, walked Lincoln frequently and was so professional! Definitely would book with her again, thank you so much Ashley!!”

“Cassandra took great care of my dog Ace during his 4-day stay. I can tell he had a good time hanging out with her dog, Chewy. Cassandra was a pleasure to work with and I hope to use her services again for future boarding.”

“Christina is amazing with my baby girl Cocoa!! As soon as we turn the corner, Cocoa cant contain her excitement to reach Christina’s home. I get a bunch of updates and cuddly pics while I’m away (they’re great but I get fomo!!!) lol”

“Andrea was once again super kind and considerate - the fact that my pet feels comfortable to rush into the apartment building as well as cozy on up to Andrea is a testament to how much trust and care there is delivered! They even offered to drop off my dog to my apartment after I flew in from a trip to help offload some traveling time. Would definitely rebook again!”

“Nitya and her partner took great care of Winston and took him on long walks. They were also very flexible and accommodating. We are asking them to help Winston again next week.”


“Thomas is such a great sitter! He sent us daily updates on how our pup Maui was doing. From the start, he welcoming and communicative. Maui was very happy with him! Can’t recommend Thomas enough!”

“Maria was amazing with my dog!! I was so nervous leaving my dog with someone other than family. Lucy is a rescue so she has been through it. Maria and her daughter took such good care of my pup and sent pictures daily.”

“Our puppy loved Tonya & her son, Ru! She sent us multiple updates & clearly took good care her! She also was flexible when we had a schedule change & didn’t mind watching our fur baby for another night. I would highly recommend Tonya to anyone looking for a dog sitter & will likely try to book her again myself?”

“Irene was amazing for our dog’s short stay! She sent regular updates with photos, followed our instructions, and Alkali was cozy while staying at their house. We will book her again.”

“Ana was amazing with Beau. I got so many pictures and videos and she made me feel so at ease my first time using rover! She was very responsive and flexible with pick up time after my flight was delayed.”

“Great host. Very communicative and friendly. They took my 100 pound dog Blu with same day notice which of course can be hard to do, so I'm grateful. They also kept me updated with pics & vids and any special moments of attention throughout the entire stay. They're very good about taking him out too for potty breaks, which is important for a big dog especially. Blu was clean and happy when he left and we will definitely use them again. Thank you again for your help!”


“Azure was excellent. She was immediately responsive, very flexible with our pick up / drop off times and took great care of our puppies. We felt comfortable with boarding our dogs with Azure because she was responsive and accommodating when we had questions. She made sure to send us plenty of pictures while we explored Chicago. I would highly recommend booking her next time you need a sitter for the doggos.”

“Serena is great! She was quick to respond to the request and was great with communication all throughout. I’m a helicopter a mom and get anxious leaving Cappuccino with a sitter, but I felt very at ease with Serena and was able to enjoy my vacation knowing that Cappuccino was being well taken care of. Serena was attentive to his needs, making sure he ate because he likes to go on a hunger strike when I’m away, and kept me well updated. Kevin, her dog, is super sweet and well behaved, I think Cappuccino enjoyed meeting him and spending time with him. Definitely would trust her with my baby again.”

“Coconut had such a great time at Anya’s!!! Anya is so so so sweet and Coconut loved cuddling with her! Anya sent updates and pictures which I really appreciated :) I was really happy knowing that my pup was so well cared for by Anya!!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Oakland
Tylisha's service was fantastic! She took care of my senior dog while I was out of town for a weekend and sent frequent photo updates of him enjoying his stay. My dog is a senior and a bit skittish, so he doesn't do well at dog hotels. But he seemed very comfortable with Tylisha. I'd highly recommend her if your dog is anything like mine.

I truly cannot say enough wonderful things about Ann! She takes such amazing care of Jet and treats him like he's her own. It's so comforting knowing he's in such loving, attentive hands whenever I'm away. Jet absolutely loves spending time with her, and I can’t express my gratitude enough for all the she does! She genuinely cares about his happiness and well-being, and that peace of mind means the world to me. I'm beyond grateful to have found someone I trust so much with my boy. There’s no one else I would recommend more than Ann!

We have never had a dog sitter since having Rocky and were definitely on edge about our first experience using the Rover App. Dalia went above and beyond to address all of our questions, she took the time to communicate with us prior to the booking and reassured us of everything we were looking to establish. During the stay, she provided active updates via chat and photos which gave us great feedback on the experience. She was very attentive and patient with us being our first time ever having someone watch Rocky. We highly recommend using Dalia if you are looking for someone who has great experience, flexible and is willing to work with you. You will not be disappointed.

Katrina was extremely thoughtful and intentional throughout our whole experience! We initially did a meetup both to make sure my pup was okay with her and vice versa! The meet up went great and she explained how a typically day of overnight sitting would go leaving me it’s no worries going into boarding. Ollie had a great time during his stay and was updated with many pictures! She even sent a pre boarding checklist to make sure he had everything he needed!

Cheyanne has become my go to sitter. I’ve used her boarding services multiple times and she takes such good care of my dog Tesla. The anxiety of him getting along with her pups is nonexistent and it makes me so happy to know that he has friends whenever he stays with her. She’s very communicative and updates me throughout the entire stay. As a pet parent I’m at ease whenever I know my he is in her care! Would highly recommend her

Sarah and her husband were very communicative about our dog's well-being over the course of a 5-day stay and made sure to send photos everyday. We're so thankful they were available after our usual sitter was not, and we were pretty nervous about leaving our dog in a place with people she'd only briefly meet prior since she can be a bit *overenthusiastic* about everything. Overall, we would book with Sarah again!

Dulce is extremely kind and super understanding! We had to send Zeus to her house super last minute due to an emergency and she was so amazing and accommodating about it. She made sure that Zeus would be one less thing we would have to worry about. Ivy is a very sweet dog and a great host. Zeus always looks so happy when he goes there. Dulce sends us awesome photos and videos and gives updates very frequently that it puts us at ease. This is our second time sending Zeus to Dulce in a month! Every time we pass her building Zeus gets excited and tries to go in because he loves it so much there. She treats him like he’s her own! Would highly recommend!
