“Vy and Sean take such good care of my pup and when he is with them I know he’s happy, safe, and being completely spoiled. They are so responsive, flexible with my ever changing schedule, and always sending the best videos and pictures of my dog having the best time. Their apartment is decked out in comfy spots to sleep and they have and amazing dog park for play time. I’m so happy I found Vy and Sean - this is my second week of booking and plan to have many more. Thank you!”

“Remy had a wonderful time with Ivy! She had lots of excursions and romps around the park with Ivy’s other dogs - she had so much fun! Thanks, Ivy! Remy will be back!”

“We had a bit of a hectic day and needed some grace: we were late dropping Enzo off AND late picking him up. Matt handled both without missing a beat. No stress, no judgment, just total flexibility and a happy little pup at the end of it. That kind of understanding is hard to find and means so much on a crazy day. Highly recommend!”

“Remy and his daughter provided great care for our dog. We booked daycare last minute, and it was easy to coordinate all the logistics with him on a tight timeline. We are grateful!”

“Mengying did a great job taking care of our dog Maple! She took her on great walks and to some local parks. She also shared a ton of great photo and video updates. She was easy to coordinate pick up and drop off with - I really appreciated her timing flexibility!”


“Anthony was one of the best dogsitters I’ve connected with through Rover. He has been super clear with communication, very flexible/accommodating of Fluffy’s needs and my schedule, and most importantly, took super good care of Fluffy. She’s a high maintenance dog that barks a lot, but I could tell immediately that Anthony is very confident in taking care of all kinds of dogs in all situations.”

“Victoria was absolutely amazing! She was willing to meet me extra early to get Hugo, and kept me updated throughout the day on how he was doing with plenty of notes, photos and videos. Hugo had a blast with her and her dog, and now he’s found a new playmate in the city! I would absolutely recommend Victoria to anyone as she is friendly, knowledgeable, and communicative throughout the visit.”


“Butters had a fun day while I got to take from fostering him a bit! Betty was great with sending periodic updates for me and she was really helpful with advice on puppy training. I would definitely book her again!”

“Sarah was a total lifesaver! Responsive, caring, kind, and enriching for Billie Jean. I feel grateful we found her and will definitely be asking her for help in the future. Billie came back glowing and thrilled 🥰”

“Tien was so sweet and Ellie, my pup, had the time of her life. I got so many pics and videos of her adventures. She saved my life, taking her last minute when I had to work and didn't realize the doggy daycare only opened at 7am Mon-Fri. I'm so grateful for Tien!”
About: I have been an animal lover my entire life and bring a level of care that goes beyond the basics. I grew up with a special needs dog, which taught me patience, attentiveness, and how important it is to understand each pet’s unique needs. A few years ago, I rescued my own dog, Tater Tot, as a puppy, and caring for him has only deepened my passion for providing thoughtful, high quality care. I take the responsibility of caring for someone else’s pet seriously and treat every animal as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and genuinely loved while you are away. I work for myself full time from home, so since I create my own schedule I am able to tailor my time to take care of the pups! I am happy to tailor the experience to the dog’s needs. At my own home, my dog is crate trained but also roams around and sometimes sleeps with me, so I’m happy to do whatever is best for the animal!

“My dog is extremely picky and will let me know she isn't happy by misbehaving. But after a day of care at David's, Penny was not unhappy, which is great. Penny was comfortable at David's place and liked his roommate. It's rare for Penny to like humans. David made sure the other dogs with him are compatible with Penny, another difficult thing. Penny napped most of the time, because that is what she does when she's not working, following someone for food, or playing fetch.”

“Jenny and her partner are wonderful! They are super friendly and kind people so we felt super comfortable leaving our boy Carmine with them. He came back health and calm.”

“Gabrielle was able to take Bullet last minute. Super flexible with the drop off and pick up time. Bullet loved staying with Gabrielle and Patrick!”

“Ingyin was wonderful with Ash. Super responsive throughout the day (while I was at the office!. She sent pictures and video updates. Before the first daycare, we met for a meet & greet with her pups, which I really appreciated. Thank you!”

“Charles was great! My little old man (14.5 y/o) Shih Tzu stayed with him for the first time for doggy day care. Charles was fast at communicating! Very punctual for drop off and pick up! And took care of Rocket like he does his own pup! He also sent pictures which is always such a welcome comforting bonus! Thank you!”

About: I grew up with three golden retrievers, so I’m very used to zoomies, big personalities, and a little bit of chaos (in the best way). I loved every second of it. I’ve handled everything from long walks and endless games of fetch to feeding, baths, vet visits, and teaching basic commands. These days, I’m the go-to dog sitter for my friends whenever they travel. I treat every dog like my own—making sure they get lots of attention, playtime, and cuddles (if they’re into that). You can expect a happy pup and plenty of updates while you’re away! I work from home, so my schedule is pretty flexible during the weekdays. On weekends, I spend most of my time in the city, enjoying parks, walking around, and hanging out with friends. Am happy to fit any needs into my schedule! I tailor my approach based on the individual needs of each pet. Regular walks, playtime, and exercise are essential components of my care routine, ensuring the pets stay happy and active.

Sarah was fantastic with Pepper! She kept us updated throughout his stay, and Pepper came home happy and well cared for. It was clear he received lots of attention and love. We would definitely book with Sarah again and highly recommend her to other pet parents!

This was the first time I tried a Rover sitter, and I’m so thankful Remy and his sweet daughter were my introduction! I have a senior dog with some special needs and who also requires medication, and Remy obliged all the instructions and, as evidenced by the photos and video he sent, clearly put my baby at ease and helped make him feel at home. He was extremely communicative, punctual, and very attentive to Cashew’s. I will definitely contact him again the next time I’m visiting the Bay Area and need a sitter!

We had a great experience with Victoria! Enzo spent the afternoon at daycare and came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. We appreciated the activity summary. It was reassuring to know he was getting walks, water, meals, and plenty of attention while we were away. Would absolutely book again and rec them to anyone looking for a reliable & caring sitter for their dog. Tysm for taking such good care of Enzo!

Edison had jam packed day with Ava filled with multiple walks, smells, photo shoots, snacks and naps. She was friendly, easy to communicate with, sent updates throughout the day and took care of Edison like her own for the day. Really appreciate connecting with her and would recommend her as a sitter.
Arya was amazing! She accepted my same day request at the last minute, which was such a huge help. She was very accommodating, kind, and easy to communicate with throughout the process. I felt comfortable leaving Chikku in her care as we had just moved to the city. she genuinely loves dogs. I really appreciate her flexibility and willingness to help on such short notice. I would definitely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.

Vanessa is quite literally the best! I was in a huge bind and needed someone to watch my two large dogs very last minute while in the midst of the chaos of a cross country move and she went above and beyond to take care of my dogs within a couple of hours of me contacting her. One of my dogs was even sick during their stay and she was so caring and helpful making sure he was okay as well as following up after the fact to make sure they were safe/doing well! She also provided photos and updates throughout the stay which as a pet parent when bringing your dogs to a new place is always appreciated. I would highly recommend Vanessa to care for your pets if you want to leave them with someone who is compassionate, responsible and trustworthy :) ty so so much!
