“Benedict & Christina were really wonderful to have watch my little senior dog. When Benedict did the meet & greet, he was inquisitive about how to best care for Jean Luc, his routine & habits, etc. They sent great photos and updates, and were always quick to respond. Highly recommend & look forward to my next booking with them!”
“Tahoma really loved staying with Nina and Leo! He came back a very happy boy. Everything was really easy to set up and we felt really comfortable they were taking good care of him!”
“My dog loves Anne because she’s so caring and loving to him and made him feel so comfortable just like in his own home. I would highly recommend Anne and will definitely leave my dog with her again.”
“Fantastic! Was very available and flexible for meet and greet ahead of the boarding and for dropoff/pickup, responsive and easy to communicate with, and sent adorable pictures of my dog happily hanging with her dog and cats during the stay! My dog didn’t want to leave when I came to pick her up (which was embarrassing - I swear she’s happy at home too! - but I’m so glad she was happy and loved hanging with her new friends). She took a long nap when she got home after so much fun :) will definitely be a repeat client”
“Chris was amazing! We received many updates during Oden’s stay, including incredible photos. Oden is typically very shy with other dogs, but got along great with the other dog Chris was sitting at the same time. We’re planning to use Chris again whenever we travel without Oden. Thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of our fur baby.”
“I have never seen my dog happier. Tillana has a big heart is definitely my dogs soulmate. He was kinda depressed coming back home with us. She took such good care of him and he was so joyful in all the videos and pictures she sent us. We were completely happy being on vacation. Thank you!”
“Martina is a wonderful host! She and her family were super caring for our dog, not only providing excellent care but also taking him out on adventures! She sent us daily updates, was very responsive to messages, and her kids were also very loving with our dog. I would definitely recommend her!”
“Yoko was wonderful with my dog, Mochi. She took Mochi on long walks, played with her, and even cooked and fed her chicken breast when Mochi was not eating properly. Yoko was also great at sharing regular updates with plenty of pictures and videos. She made me feel at peace while I was away, as I knew Mochi was in good hands.”
“Cesar provided outstanding dog boarding services during the winter holiday week! Our dog Koa had an awesome time with Cesar with walks around the neighborhood, playing in the backyard, cozy time on the couch when the weather was inclement, and loved meeting other dog friends! Cesar sent lovely pics every morning and evening with a short report and update every day that gave us peace of mind and also made us smile (Cesar takes amazing pics!) We would highly recommend Cesar to anyone looking for excellent care for their dog!”
“This was Shiloh's second time at Guillermo' and Siobhan's home. Guillermo has great vibes and Shiloh comes home fulfilled and tired. We couldn't ask for more!”
“Minori was an attentive caretaker for our dog. She sent multiple updates with pictures throughout the day and we felt comfortable leaving our dog in her care. She is very quick to respond and was very thorough with onboarding. We highly recommend Minori!”
“Kylie and Bluey are both fabulous! Our dog had the absolute best time and Kylie kept us brilliantly up to date with adorable photos throughout. Well 100% use her again and can’t recommend her enough!”
“Alexa took wonderful care of Mugsy! Before our stay she made time for a meet and greet to ensure it was a good fit. She was very communicative throughout the process and Mugsy’s stay with her. We got lots of pictures and updates which gave us peace of mind. Mugsy came home a happy dog!”
“I boarded my cat Ellie at Carolina’s home for a week and would definitely recommend Carolina as a pet sitter! She sent many photos and videos of my cat throughout the week, and I could tell my cat was really enjoying her stay. I felt reassured that my cat was doing well while I was on vacation because she was in good hands with Carolina!”
About: Hi, I'm Jess! I am a lifelong animal lover and proud dog mom to my corgi-mix, JackJack. I have experience with dog sitting and have even volunteered at animal shelters in the past. Friends, family, and coworkers often rely on me to walk or check in on their pups when they're away, and I truly love it. Dogs bring so much joy to life and I love getting to know the personalities of the dogs that are under my care. About JackJack - My doggo, my co-host, my co-pilot, JackJack is a very playful, compassionate, and loves food! JackJack is a friendly, social pup who loves making new friends! Home - We live in a friendly neighborhood with parks within walking distance. We also have a fenced backyard where the doggos can play! We'll provide fresh water, toys, comfy indoor resting spots, and plenty of space for play. Walks - We typically take three walks each day - morning, afternoon, and evening - and end the day with a final potty break before bedtime. My care philosophy - My goal is simple...happy, healthy, and loved pups! I focus on giving each dog attention, exercise, and cozy downtime so they feel right at home. What I need from you - To provide the best care for your dog, I'll need: * Any instructions that would be helpful and any special care notes * Any known allergies to food or plants, etc. * Feeding schedule - what, when, and how much your dog eats, any dietary restrictions * Bed, food/water bowls, and any other comfort items * Emergency contacts/vet info for peace of mind I’m home throughout the day and I can provide attentive care throughout the day including walks in the morning, afternoon, and evening, playtime with JackJack, and plenty of rest and cuddles. When your dog stays with me, they’re treated like part of the family! I provide scheduled walks, playtime, and rest periods. I follow all care instructions provided and I send 'pupdates' (aka photos and videos of your pup) throughout the day so you know your pet is thriving and to give you peace of mind.
“Karla was a fantastic sitter! She sent lots of photos and checked in daily. She always asked before giving my dog any new foods or treats. Would 100% leave my baby with her again. Thanks Karla!”
“It was a great experience to board Miko with Mariam! Mariam was very kind and responsive throughout the entire stay. Our pet greatly enjoyed her time at Mariam’s place! Definitely recommend her for future booking!”

Cali loved her overnight boarding time with Alexa D. This was my first time as a Dog Mom using Rover and Alexa made me feel totally at ease leaving my high energy pup with her. She was an attentive communicator and patient with all of my questions. We had a meet and greet beforehand where we shared information and anything noteworthy about Cali. Alexa's knowledge of dogs, her experience, and all of the ways she cares for them were impressive. Thank you Alexa for taking such care of my baby girl!
Liliane's place is Robin's second home. He is very attached to us and usually needs some time to settle into new places. This wasn't the case with Liliane and he was just very happy and relaxed from the start. We got a lot of photo updates from Liliane and Robin looked like he is having an amazing time! We will definitely continue to book with Liliane!
Suzana was wonderful, she kept us updated with pictures and how Sadie was doing on a daily basis. Getting the pictures was important to us. We have never left Sadie with anyone we didn’t know so it was important to get the right dog sitter for her. We would definitely trust using Suzana again in the future.
My dogs had another great stay at Nina & Leo’s place, which is like their vacation home! Maru & Chance enjoyed exploring the parks where Nina & Leo took them to on the weekend as well as spent peaceful time at their house. I received pictures showing that both of them were in good hands every day! Nina & Leo are trusted and reliable dog sitters.
Saul and his girlfriend took such incredible care of our dog and 2 cats. We were traveling for 3 weeks and have never left our pets for that long before, but they kept us updated and sent photos daily! They were also very communicative and made the whole process seamless. Can’t recommend them enough, and we will definitely book with them again for any future trips!
Luna had a fantastic stay at David’s place! I got photos & updates (thank you!), and she came home happy as could be. David was wonderful - he generously accommodated a schedule change when I got my wires crossed, and was just terrific all around. Happy to have found such a great host in the Bay, and will book again soon!
Cava had another great stay with Emily! He was so excited the moment we arrived at her place. She cares for him as he was her own, taking him on long walks and giving him lots of attention, and she sends lots of photo and video updates, which is everything we could ask for that he is cared for, having a great time, and getting to see photo updates while we’re missing him!
