“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!!”


“Latricia is great. My dog has been staying with her pretty consistently. Hope for more in the future. In fact was hoping for an overnight stay this weekend but she is booked. ”

About: We had a family dog that I've been taking care of since 8 years old. With that, I developed a fond relationship with dogs over the years. I can guarantee to provide your dogs proper care, companionship, and a safe environment. Dog care is my part-time job right now, which means I can give your fur babies my undivided attention. I'm free everyday, and I'm happy to adjust my hours around your dogs need and routine. I have a spacious room and balcony where they can play, relax, and get some fresh air. They have a plenty of room for them to run around and just be themselves.

About: Your pet's comfort is our top priority. We live in a pet-friendly 2b2b apartment where your furry friend will get VIP treatment. Since I specialize in making natural pet treats, your pup or kitty will have endless treats during their stay!

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.
“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.”

“Fadi was great with Benji. He sent regular updates and photos, and Benji seemed happy and relaxed throughout. We felt very comfortable leaving Benji in his care and highly recommend him.”

“Nasreddine is such an amazing dog sitter, I can’t recommend her enough! From working with our schedule to sending us updates on Kay she was on it and fantastic! Highly recommend her to anyone’s pups!!”

“Andy is wonderful - my dog Sidney is always so happy to see him when I drop her off for daycare (usually once a week). When I arrive to pick her up, she generally doesn't want to leave! She gets multiple walks per day and enjoys time with their dog Millie. They are accommodating of my crazy schedule and very flexible about drop-off and pick-up time. I very highly recommend these folks - they take great care of my baby!”

About: I have had the pleasure of growing up with dogs ranging from small to large! Dogs have become such a big part of my life and now I am thankful to have a dog of my own, Theo❤️ I have looked after pets of friends and family for many years and I enjoy doing it every time! I am able to administer any type(s) of medications, brushing of hair or teeth, mental stimulation, long walks, dog parks, you name it! I work full time remote therefore my schedule is very flexible. I am able to take your pup out as many as 3x or more! I want every furry friend to feel as comfortable as possible. I respect any pet rules you have in your home and will be sure to follow during the stay!
“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!!”

“Sarah was amazing! Very kind and communicative. My 10 year old Australian Shepherd was comfortable and at ease with her and in her home. Very glad to have booked with her!”

About: Hi there! We’re a married couple with no kids, and dogs have always been a big part of our lives. 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. Edelis works downtown Tuesday through Friday from 9–5 as a Family Nurse Practitioner, and I work from home a standard 9–5 schedule at a tech company as a Monetization Strategy Manager. Your pup’s safety and comfort are our top priorities. We live in a clean, non-smoking, dog-friendly one-bedroom apartment with a private outdoor patio. Our home is very tidy, pet-safe, and stays comfortable year round with AC and heating. We’re right across from Patricia’s Green dog park and just a 10-minute walk to Alamo Square Park, so daily walks and park time are part of the routine. 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.
About: Hi! I’m Jaidah — a proud dog mom and total animal lover 🐾 Spending time with dogs is genuinely one of my favorite things, and I know how important it is to feel confident that your pup is safe, happy, and well cared for when you’re away. I pay close attention to each dog’s personality, energy level, and routine, so they get exactly what they need — whether that’s a relaxed sniff-filled stroll, a brisk walk, or a fun run to burn off some zoomies. Safety, consistency, and positive vibes always come first! I treat every dog like they’re my own (because honestly, they deserve nothing less), and I’d love the chance to give your pup all the care, attention, and love they deserve. 🐶💛 I build walks, playtime, cuddles, and meal breaks right into my daily rhythm, so dogs always feel safe, happy, and loved. Some days we’re strolling around the neighborhood, other days it’s zoomies at the dog park or cozy snuggle time on the couch. I follow each dog’s schedule, energy level, and personality, so they get exactly what they need. 🥰 Patiences, consistency, and attention to their individual needs! I always follow the instruction a pet owner provides. From walk routines, feeding schedule, medication, and any other specifics. Dog walking: I like to ensure that your animal has the appropriate gear needed to have a safe and enjoyable walk. Whether that’s an adjusted harness, footies, coat, retractable leash, and treats/water for longer walks. I am a paws wiper after walks :) Sitting: I ensure they feel safe and welcoming! My home is clean and free from any hazards. My furniture is their furniture! They will be given attention, warmth, and care. I like to keep all owners updated throughout the stay as well! You can expect updates from me on a consistent basis 😌
“Im new to having someone else take care of my dog. Courtney checks out for me - I noted her reviews, information and pictures in her profile, and then she was easy to communicate with. I had a good feeling when it came time to drop off, where Courtney was very welcoming and transparent. My doggo made new friends and came home and crashed out! I do plan to ask Courtney if she could do day care or boarding again soon!”

San Pablo Gateway 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!

VJ and Matthew are the best. I feel so safe leaving my dog Willa with them, I always trust that she’s in good hands. They take such good care of her; as an example, when she’s finicky with food they’ll hand feed her (without me ever having suggested it). They’re great communicators and always send the cutest pictures of Willa cuddling with them and the dogs. I couldn’t recommend them more highly.

Tamara was so thoughtful and helped me out with my pup on a days notice. She’s got a great, fenced yard and her energy is very calming. Her sweet pup Sidney is also wonderful. I felt very good leaving my Popcorn with her while I was at work. We will definitely be seeing Tamara again. 💚
