“Lee was GREAT with Carter! Made him feel at home, kept him safe and happy. She also sent videos and pics without me asking which was super nice. Her home is spacious, clean and has an open backyard for the dogs to play in. Her dogs also got along well with my little Carter. I’ll definitely be booking her again.”
“We had a last minute cancellation and had to adjust our plans on the fly. Lilly was happy to accommodate my nervous pup and help her feel comfortable for the day.”
“This is the second time our senior pup stayed with Renae for the day and he had another wonderful time! Renae is very responsive when booking, and she shared that our dog was settling in well shortly after he arrived. We’ll definitely rebook in the future.”
“Aman was very kind and gracious to watch our dog Whiskey on fairly short notice. He took great care of her and was highly responsive! I would definitely recommend and will reach out to him in the future.”
“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 :)”
“I can't recommend Heather and Ilaria highly enough! From our first interaction, communication was excellent. It was such a relief knowing Rio was in such caring and capable hands. I could tell Rio was happy and comfortable, and I appreciated cute photos! I will absolutely be using their services again and wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving dog sitter.”
“Finn had a great time with Vanessa. She’s very kind and easy to communicate with, and Finn appreciates her great yard. Finn had a great time with Vanessa’s dog Robin. We will definitely book again!”
About: I’m a Fear Free Certified Professional, currently studying animal behavior. I’ve been running my own home based doggy daycare and boarding house for four years. My care is crate-free (unless that's what your pup's preferred at-home routine is,) with regular group outings to trails and the beach. I live in a two level home where the entire downstairs and fenced backyard are just for the dogs! It’s colorfully set up as the coolest doggie social club, but the pups are welcome throughout both levels of the home. They are never forcibly isolated and almost always prefer to be close to wherever I am. I keep my client list small and personal—almost all of my dogs have been with me for years. I don’t aim to pack the house; I aim to give the best experience possible for every dog and human involved. Even when clients start as one-offs, they usually stick around—because I strive to be a resource for dogs and their families. That’s why I call this place a home away from home. If you're interested, I invite you to come by for a meet and greet—see the space, meet me, and let me meet your little one. I look forward to being your dog’s new best friend! Canine care is my daily life. The dogs are with me throughout the day—whether we’re in the yard, around the house, or out on a trail. I structure my routine around their needs, with group outings, downtime, and a consistent rhythm. If my personal life calls me away, I have an amazing assistant Alaina who steps in. She also co-runs the daycare! I focus on keeping things consistent, calm, fun, and full of bonding—play, rest, outdoor time, and enrichment are all part of the daily rhythm. Outside of daycare hours, the space functions as our home too, so dogs experience a relaxed, real-life environment, not a facility. I send updates, pictures, and videos throughout the day.
“Michelle was great with our anxious dog and was super easy to communicate with for both pre-daycare and day-of daycare! We will be booking with her again!”
“Noni was so great and Tahoe enjoyed his stay! He came back with a new toy & we were so happy to get so many updates. She was patient and understanding as he is a shelter dog finding his rhythm in the world.”
About: I grew up with dogs and cats my whole life, have been pet sitting for the past 10 years for friends and family, and we now have a dog daughter of our own – a 3 year old standard poodle. We'll care for your dog just like we care for our own – as part of our family. I work from home primarily and my partner works from home occasionally so your pet will never be alone for too long. We have a yard where our dog and a neighboring dog like to play and we go on 3 walks per day at minimum in the morning, afternoon, and evening. Whether your dog enjoys lots of social time and play or is more relaxed, we are set up to provide your dog with the care and safe space they need.
“Tara and Leo were prompt, communicative, and wonderful with my dog Choux! He clearly warmed up to them quickly and had a lovely day at their house. Tara sent us photos of him looking very content receiving belly rubs. I look forward to booking with her 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.”
“Latricia was very sweet with our dog! It's clear that she has a lot of experience with dogs. She sent multiple photos and updates during the day. She also gave us helpful information about his behavior afterwards.”
“Alexandria looked after my dog Zephyr for several days as I was out of town. I could tell from Zephyr's overall demeanor that he really liked her and her family. Highly recommended!”
“Simone took excellent care of our senior dog. She asked good questions and was gentle with our high needs dog. I felt totally at ease knowing she was in good hands!”
“Sara was able to host our pup last minute and he had a great time playing with her two dogs. Fenced back yard is a major plus for getting out all that energy!”
“Maxwell is incredibly slow to trust people. The moment he met Mary at our meet & greet I could Tell she had a special energy (he even tried to follow her into her apartment after they met). After this stay, I am so confident she is going to be an excellent fit for my sweet pup. She spent time with him 1:1 upon arrival before bringing him up to meet her dog (making sure he got comfy), she took him on errands and walks and sent the sweetest photos of him meeting the neighbors, and she was flexible and dropped him off at our house when our plans got delayed. Very much looking forward to more stays with Mary!”
“Jessie is wonderful! Neo is always so excited when he spends time with Jessie and her pup, Doug. So much so that he sometimes doesn't even want to leave at the end of the day :P I love all of the pictures and updates that Jessie sends throughout the day, and it's clear that she adores dogs and treats her doggie guests as her own.”

Aimee E.
“Aimee is an absolute gem! I’ve had the pleasure of working with her as an assistant for the past year and a half, caring for dogs in daycare and boarding. Without a doubt, she goes above and beyond to ensure the well-being of her furry clients. Leading with patient, fear-free engagement and positive reinforcement, Aimee works hard to ensure each dog feels confident, comfortable and cared for from the moment they step a paw through her front door. To cultivate a true home-away-from-home environment, she has set up her entire house to ensure the maximum comfort and accessibility for each of her Lucky Dog guests. Pups arrive each day with wagging tails and loads of excitement and leave content from a fun-filled day with friends of socializing, playtime, hikes, cuddles, treats, naps, belly rubs and so much more. At Lucky Dog Social Club, Aimee brings the whole package when it comes to caring for your pup—she will love them like her own and you can rest easy knowing they are in her hands…and her heart!”

Taryn & Jeffrey T.
“Taryn and her husband Jeff have lovingly cared for our dog Chips several times and he always comes back happy and healthy! Their dog Peixe is one of Chips's favorite playmates; Peixe is incredibly well-behaved and cared for beautifully. One time while watching Chips, the Bay Area had a crazy heat wave and I felt totally confident that he was safe and comfortable while we were away despite his thick fur and high energy level/exercise needs. Chips is a bit of a wild man on walks/hikes and they deal with him SO well! Loving, conscientious, safe, and fun - those are the hallmarks of Taryn's caregiving style <3”

Sara and Evan took great care of Luna! They were really accommodating of our schedule and shared lots of pics of how she was getting on.
I highly recommend Paula for your dog care needs. As a registered nurse and neurotic dog mom, I’m very particular about who I will leave my dogs with. Both my babies have allergies with special food for each, need sunscreen and have behavioral quirks as they are brothers from the same litter. Paula has been great with me and my dogs- something I cannot say about every dog sitter on Rover. With my unpredictable schedule she has been very understanding of cancellations and time changes. They are so happy when they get to her place and tired and well stimulated when I pick them up. Thank you Paula! I am so grateful!
Lilly provided great care and comfort to my pet during his stay with her. She asked for all the details about my pet and his preferences, she also made every accomodation to ensure he had a safe and comfortable stay. She sent us photo updates and communicated often with great and detailed updates. Thank you Lilly, I felt very comfortable leaving my fur baby with you
Ellie had a great day with Danielle and Joel! They were very active with her and gave her plenty of outdoor time which we so appreciate! Our pup came home happy and sleepy from her day of play.
Aman took great care of Bo. He was calm and kind. Gave me updates and pictures throughout the day. Even dropped Bo at my house at the end of the day. I would have him watch Bo again!
She was by far the best dog sitter I’ve had in 13 years. She’s clearly doing it for the love of dogs! She was so kind and loving to my Maltese. My dog takes along time warming up to people and has a severe separation anxiety but she hit it off with Juyeon right away! 🫶🏻💕💕 I absolutely recommend her!
Jiayi was great with my fur baby Maui, and I look forward to booking with her again. This was our first daycare sitting with Jiayi and she was so patient, thoughtful, and conscientious giving lots of belly rubs and love, to calm his separation anxiety, and giving me lots of updates and photos. She also remembered all the notes I gave her and reviewed them with me at drop off, which I really appreciate. Her corgi is also easy to get along with and chill while Maui was showered with attention and made to feel at home. :) Thank you, Jiayi!
Kenneth cared for our Rottweiler mix, Tahoe, on a last minute request! He was very knowledge and we instantly knew we could trust him with our rescue. He clearly understands dogs and loves them. He sent us updates and Tahoe enjoyed his time out in the patio & getting to know Maze. Reliable and truly caring!
Alex took excellent care of Louie! Very kind, communicative and punctual. Took him on multiple walks and sent photos. Will definitely be reaching out to her in the future!
Coordinating our visit was a breeze with Jessica. She took great care of Finny and I'm so glad that our dogs seem to really enjoy each other (although they spent most of the time following Jessica around the house). I highly recommend her services.
Cheyanne was able to look after our dog on short notice so we could enjoy a night out! We’re incredibly grateful for her kindness and for sending updates on our baby! Thank you Cheyanne!
We’re so grateful to Ashley for taking such great care of our pug, Baton! She stepped in last minute and was incredibly accommodating. Throughout the stay, she kept us updated and sent us the cutest pictures of Baton, which really helped us feel at ease while we were away. It was clear Baton was in great hands and got lots of love and attention. Highly recommend Ashley to anyone looking for a thoughtful and reliable pet sitter! Thank you so much!
Thank you Veronica! It was so helpful to have you watch Aspen! We’ll definitely book with you next time we’re in town!
Yeon Soo was great! She was very communicative and took very good care of our little buddy! Thank you Yeon Soo! 💕
Alexis is an amazing dog sitter. She’s communicative, responds in a timely manner, and is very flexible and I understanding. Our young and energetic dog loves spending time with Alexis! She runs towards her door the moment I park to initiate the drop off which is a clear indicator our dog is super excited to see her. Thanks, Alexis!
Dash took great care of Luna while I was out of town for a day trip. She had fun exploring his home and Dash was attentive to her needs. Thanks again!
My corgi, Ms. Money Penny, had a fabulous time at Robert and Brian's home. She played ball, went for a walk, was adored, and very well taken care of.
Athena is great! Rockee is always excited to see her in the morning, and I appreciate her flexibility with my work schedule and open communication. She’s also been helping with Rockee’s reactivity and I’ve noticed a calmer demeanor when he’s around other dogs. Thank you Athena!
Didem was amazing! She was able to help me watch Lottie with a day’s notice. She also kept me posted on all things Lottie and really wanted to understand her the best she could to make her comfortable. Lottie usually takes a while to warm up to new people, but Lottie warmed up to her almost immediately. I know she had a great time with Didem! I will definitely be reaching out to Didem in the future! Thank you so much for watching Lottie! :)
