“Ashley helped us out in a pinch and exceeded our expectations! She cared for our dog and quickly helped acclimate our anxious dog. We’ll definitely be asking Ashley for services in the future! Thanks for loving our pup like your own :)”

“We had a great first daycare with Nikolai! He is very responsive and easy to coordinate with. It was nice to know Jax was having a fun day with other dogs and nice people. Excited to go back again!!”

“My dog Fota had a great day at daycare with Enzo and Arlo exploring the yard and running and playing at the park. Enzo was communicative and sent nice pictures updates throughout the day. I would book again!”


“Anchisa kept my dog Walter for doggy day care on my long work days. I am completely pleased and so happy we found her! From time of booking throughout his whole stay her communication is excellent with updates and pics! He is no longer nervous when I get ready for work since he knows he will be seeing her. I would trust her completely for boarding if I leave town as well. I am so grateful we found you!”


“Thanks Sophie for taking good care of our dog Hobbes! We had Sophie watch Hobbes while we attended a concert in Berkeley. We had drinks at a spot in Oakland beforehand and her place was a quick stop on the way to the venue. Hobbes seemed to have a blast playing while there. She shared some photos which was a nice touch. We will gladly reach out again if we need pet sitting in the area.”

“Sara was able to take in our dog Harper at really late notice! Thank you for being able to accommodate. My dog can be reactive so she was very helpful in introducing her dogs to mine and I really appreciated that shes seasoned with that. She was so communicative and literally texted back so fast! The backyard is beautiful and Harper even really loved her! Will be coming back!”

“I highly recommend Nathalie. She took excellent care of our senior dog. She is friendly, easy to communicate with, and her place was very clean. Most importantly, it is very evident how much she loves dogs and other animals. We will be contacting her in the future when we need dog sitting again.”

“If you're anything like me, the guilt of being away at work all day weighs on me, but knowing that instead, my fur-baby is now getting tons of attention, pets, walks, and love puts my mind at ease. Getting cuddles from Van Joseph and Matthew, the company of their sweet little dogs, and soft blankets to sleep in is priceless! I got so many precious photos which brightened my day! Overjoyed to have found Van Joseph and Matthew to care for my sweet girl Petunia!!”


“Taylor is fantastic. I was in town for work with my wee guy and she took care of him during the times I couldn't have him with me. Rowlf and Taylor made a fast friends. They played and walked and cuddled, she took tons of pics and kept me up to date about their time together, and really supported me while I was working. I'm so grateful I found her. Taylor is super friendly, thorough, and loving. It can be so hard for all of us to trust the care of our babies to a stranger. You can't go wrong here!”

“Theo had a great day with Alexis. Alexis clearly cared for him and was VERY understanding that he is a puppy and has a lot to learn. The care and attention made it easy for me to handle work and know that Theo was going to be taken care of while traveling in the area. Would highly recommend!”

“Misa was so great with my fur baby Maui who has separation anxiety. She was very accommodating of my request to do a meet and greet first and with my schedule. She was so welcoming and warm towards Maui and indulged in giving him lots of pets and attention, taking him on a walk, and kept an eye on him as he explored around her fenced backyard. Maui was in good spirits, hanging with one of Misa's shih tzus, when I picked him up, and I look forward to having him stay with Misa and her family again! Thanks, Misa!”


“Mariola was great! She's very sweet and loves dogs. She even sent me a photo of Jojo having fun with his new friends. This was my dog's first time in day care and I felt totally secure. I highly recommend her!”

“Julia was fantastic. She was responsive and was able to take a request on short notice. She sent photos and text updates throughout the day, which made me feel at ease. She gave my dog tons of attention and tons of walks. And my dog, who can be anxious sometimes, was totally happy and relaxed and tired when she got home-- hurray! I would definitely book a stay with Julia again.”

Rockridge dog parents share their Rover experiences
Thank you for watching our sweet Porky pie. He had such a great time. We love that he gets to have play time with other dogs and so glad he got along so well with Nala. Loved all the great updates while away, it really made my heart happy to see he is well taken care of while we are away. Highly recommend to anyone needing a pet sitter. Amazing communication!!! And your pet will be well taken care of.

Autumn was an amazing sitter for our pup over the holidays. We arranged a meet and greet ahead of time so Miso had a chance to meet her dog and see the space. She was a great communicator and very responsive. We needed her sitting a little past the typical rover evening cutoff and she was happy to accommodate. Our pup was a little sad when we left him but Autumn took a bunch of steps to make him feel comfortable and he soon settled in. We highly recommend Autumn if you want personalized service and care for your pup!

Sophia is wonderful. My dog clearly felt safe & comfortable around her. She is a gem & I would definitely use her again. She provided clear descriptions of how my senior goldendoodle behaved during the sit. I am grateful for her outstanding care. She is a genuine pet lover.
I boarded RaKi with Anand for about a week, and I would definitely recommend him as an amazing caretaker. He was very communicative, responsive, and upfront about any concerns he noticed, while still handling everything calmly and confidently which was incredibly reassuring, especially with RaKi being just 4 months old and me being a new pup parent. Anand showed genuine care and love toward RaKi, and he kept me updated regularly with photos and behavior notes. I truly appreciated the attention, transparency, and kindness he put into caring for my puppy. He even sent RaKi home with a couple of toys he enjoyed during his stay, such a thoughtful gesture! Highly recommend Anand!

My puppy was so happy to see Emily again! She also enjoyed her time with Emily's dog that included a long walk. Appreciate the pictures from today. Dolly was tired when we arrived home, and that's always a good thing! Thank you again, Emily for taking such good care of my puppy!

Robert did a great job caring for my dog - his communication was excellent and he kindly shared updates and pictures throughout the day. He was willing to let us book a day visit in advance of a longer stay to help our dog get more comfortable, which I really appreciated. Thank you!
