“Michael was great! I left my dog Echo with him for 3 days and he took care of Echo who seemed to really enjoy Michael’s house and yard. Michael sent daily updates and photos, and my dog was in super happy spirits when I picked him up, so I know he enjoyed his time at Michael’s! Highly recommend and I will use Michael again next time.”


“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!”


“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.”


“Ivan was so good to Toko and Arya while I was gone! They're both small dogs who are reserved around new people and new dogs. Toko came to him with a broken foot and a bunch of built up anxiety since he couldn't exercise, while Arya has way too much energy. He was very careful to make sure Toko stayed comfortable and couldn't injure himself, but also took Arya on several long adventures. Ivan sent me many great photos and daily updates of the pups while I was on vacation, which greatly reduced my own anxiety over them staying over! I could tell they had a great time, and I won't hesitate to book Ivan again!”


“Carlos provided expert care to our puppy when we were on a weekend trip. We felt a sense of relief when we met him because he is such a natural with dogs and our puppy warmed up to him immediately.”


“Annie is an absolutely incredible, caring pet sitter. She took our dog on wonderful excursions, sent lots of wonderful photos, and was always available to talk or text. My dog had separation anxiety and she also handled that well. You can’t go wrong with choosing her as your pet sitter.”


“Mario took great care of my little jada. I’m always nervous leaving her when I go on trips, but I can tell she enjoyed her stay! I would recommend Mario for sure!”


“Katie and Jason are great dogsitters (and super friendly humans in general)! They took great care of our pup Kiwi, who can be anxious and slow to warm up to people, and they understood that Kiwi needs to go at her own pace. Upon handoff, they immediately took her for a quick walk around the block which helped ease the transition, and by that evening, Kiwi was comfortable and asking for pets. Katie and Jason are quick to respond and kept us updated with both many adorable photos and brief recaps of walks or fun things that happened in the home. They accommodated our late pickup time with no fuss and had everything prepared: the bowls were washed and dried, and the blanket was folded. Highly recommend these two! Kiwi would love to stay with them again. Thanks Katie and Jason!”


“William and his wife took wonderful care of Luna. They sent frequent photos, videos, and updates of her happily playing. They even fixed her loose stools with a doggy probiotic which I appreciated so much. Am grateful to have found loving sitters for our family member. They clearly have lots of dog and pet experience.”


“Zicheng was extremely accommodating and responsive. He has a great backyard and a fun dog. He texts pictures during a stay and its always reassuring. I would highly recommend Zicheng for anyone in the Peninsula.”


“Simran was very kind and accommodating and treated our husky with love, just like another family member. Our Akira was able to have another playmate and doggy friend, Sushi, who went on walks with her and kept her company the whole time. In fact, our husky was so happy and relaxed when we picked her, that she didn’t jump up or show any signs of missing me. Doggy proof that she was having lots of fun and attention. A+++”


“Minori was absolutely wonderful with our dog! I will 100% considered her for next time! I don't think our dog would have any reservations with that, haha. Minori was very professional and enthusiastic up-front. Through our dog's stay, it was immediately evident that our dog was on vacation just as much as we were! She stayed in constant communication, provided daily reports, along with plenty of pictures [of our dog having lots of fun]. We picked up our dog and left with a feeling of a new friend.”


“Cuau and his family were great. Very attentive to our dog and sent many daily photos, including activity and eating habits. They have an ample fenced yard for our dog’s high energy needs. Plus Cuau was really flexible when I realized I needed to make changes to our plans! Their dog Luma is very friendly as well.”

“Anna was communicative and provided daily pics for Mallow during her first stay away from me. She was flexible with dropoff and pickup times and everything was ready to go when I came to get her. Only thing I'll note is that Mallow can be difficult with certain dogs, which was even more important that she met Anna's dog prior to booking. Upon dropoff she actually had another dog she was sitting for at the same time. This was the opposite of what was listed in her profile and the main reason I booked with her. Thankfully Mallow got a long with the other dog but I wish that had been mentioned prior to dropoff.”


“Suzana comforted us with giving a lot of love to our dog and sending us many updates daily. Out of many rover stays, Suzana has been the best at communicating and showing care. I would definitely want our dog to stay with her in the future.”


“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.”



About: We are a family of four who loves dogs. Our lives center around our healthy 5 year old lab retriever Texas who spayed and updated with her shots. We live in the beautiful hills of Belmont and have a deck for dogs to sunbathe on and a fenced yard to play and get their wiggles out. I’m a dog walker so what better than walking two dogs versus one! 7am potty break, 7.30am Breakfast, 8-9am morning play, relax/sunbathe (dogs 😊), 10-11 am bathroom break 4pm - dinner, 5-7 pm walk , lights out -10.30pm Before boarding it’s imperative that we meet the dog and the dogs meet each other. Smaller dogs get very defensive affront large dogs and since we have a large dog I’m right now restricted to large dogs only. Our fenced yard is a perfect place for dogs to play and have fun with the gazillion toys we have. We also live 5min away from a dog park so if your dog is friendly and has a good recall that’s another place we can have fun. I take time to build and earn the dog’s trust - some treats go a long way. I check their paws after playing to ensure nothing is bothering and also keep a keen eye on any scratching or biting.

“Na sent photos of our dogs every day. She has a home in a quiet neighborhood with a yard and played ball with one of our hyper dogs every day. She provided nice little beds for them to sleep in and sent photos every day. I felt very comfortable leaving them with Na!”

Kopal N.
“I cannot recommend Kopal highly enough as a loving and caring person. I have known her for about 20 years now, before she even started sitting for pets. She always had a very special relation with my dog. It was clear that Kopal genuinely loves animals and treats each pet as if they were her own. While I have not had Kopal watch my dog professionally, I do see the love she has for any dog that she comes in contact with. She always shares creative updates & fun photos with her dog. I have though had her watch my kid and she treats mine as her own. Kopal is trustworthy, communicative, and would treat you and your pet with respect. If you're looking for someone who will care for your pet with genuine love and responsibility, Kopal is the perfect choice.”
