“Olivia was amazing! We received updates and photos daily during Milano’s stay. Her home had a great setup with plenty of outdoor space in the yard for the dogs. She is very experienced with working with dogs. We would love to rebook with her next time!”
“Once again my cats had a great time at Mary’s. I especially like that she has a dedicated room for them with toys and lots of places to climb. Mary took time to send me updates and photos, which I really appreciate. I could tell my cat’s enjoyed themselves, they did not want to go home. Even my scaredy-cat, Warrior who spent most of his time hiding behind her couch seemed right at home when I went to pick them up. Thanks Mary!!!”
“Izzy came highly recommended by several friends who regularly trust him with their pups, and now I completely understand why. This was my dog Arthur’s first time staying with anyone aside from family, so I was a bit nervous at first. Izzy quickly put me at ease by letting me know Arthur was settling in nicely and getting along well with the whole family. The photos and videos Izzy sent showed just how happy and comfortable Arthur was, and the regular, detailed updates made it easy to relax knowing he was in such good hands. Thank you for making Arthur’s first experience with a sitter such a positive one!”
“Arryonna was absolutely amazing!! She took great care of our wild puppy for a whole weekend. She updated me daily with pics & videos. We met ahead of time to be sure everything felt comfortable when introducing our pup to her own animals. I can’t say enough good things about our experience”
“We had a last minute trip and Shuvashna was super accomodating and flexible with all our last minute changes. My husband and I got to enjoy our short vacation because we didn’t have to worry if our fur baby is ok. Shuvashna went above and beyond in taking care of Cotton. She also took great photos and kept us updated. We’ll definitely leave Cotton with her and her family again. Cotton looked very happy during her stay. Thank youuuu again for giving our Cotton lots of love and attention ?”
“Harper, Was an excellent communicator, she sent me pictures of Honey, and videos every day! She kept me posted and it made me feel very happy to see Honey going for a walk and looking happy with her sitter! Thank you Harper, you did a wonderful job! Marisel”
“Robin and Dan are very warm, caring and obvious dog lovers. They took Nora in with open arms and were very accommodating when it comes to her quirks. They sent many updates, photos and videos. I could tell Nora felt instantly at home with them and knew she would be well taken care of. Robin and I had thorough conversations before her stay on Nora’s specific needs and traits which mad me feel at ease. Nora was very happy and content when we picked her up and didn’t seem to want to leave! We would love for Robin and Dan to take care of Nora in the future”
“This was our first time leaving our dogs with anyone other than a family member, and I was nervous. Angelica quickly put our minds at ease and sent over updates and pictured daily. You could tell the dogs felt like they were also on a vacation for the weekend. She and her family went above and beyond for our furbabies.. You could tell from the pictures that our senior dog looked comfortable and safe, and our younger dog was living her best life with some new walking (and roller blading!) adventures. I'm relieved to have found her and to now have a backup option for my family.”
“Robert was great as usual even accommodating us for a last minute long stay since our other sitter did not work out. loves visiting with Robert. Robert sent us regular updates and pictures and we had peace of mind knowing he was well taken care of.”
“Laura was absolutely amazing. I had a last minute event I needed to attend so when I found Laura was local and had availability for a last minute boarding appointment I read the other reviews and decided to book with her. Nala was very well taken care of. Laura sent updates and photos throughout the day. My dog also takes heart medication so it was important to find someone that was comfortable with an older dog as well as one that has to take medication. If you are looking for someone you can trust and who will treat your fur baby like family I would highly recommend Laura.”
“I’m glad I met Cindy. She is very helpful and gives you great tips on helping you become a better pet owner. First time booking Cindy and we had an excellent experience. We will continue to use Cindy for future needs.”
“Mya was amazing with Luna! She really cared for her, especially when Luna developed an unexpected hot spot — she kept me informed and made sure Luna was comfortable. I always appreciated the updates and videos she sent, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. She clearly knows what she’s doing with dogs and treated Luna like her own. Overall, I had a really positive experience and would definitely recommend her.”
“Lea is always so fantastic with our dog, Abby. She is super communicative, and Abby always gets so excited when we start driving down her street. She is wonderful and I cannot say enough good things about her!! We cannot recommend highly enough. We have worked with her several times in the past and look forward to working with her in the future! Thank you Lea!”
“Ellie had an amazing time with Natallia. She took notes of all my instructions and paid extra attention to things that Ellie is a little bit shy of doing or eating. I definitely would trust Natallia to take care of my dog again!”
“Tracey was super communicative and cared for Leo well. She has a great set up and nice neighborhood for dogs, and her 2 boxer buddies were so friendly. Would definitely book again!”
About: I’ve always been passionate about caring for animals, and I understand what it means to entrust your pet to someone else. Pets aren’t just animals — they’re family. As the devoted owner of a Shih Tzu, I specialize in caring for smaller breeds. I understand their unique needs, from their delicate nature to their often “big” personalities, and I know how important it is to find a sitter you can truly trust with your pet. I’ve become the go-to sitter for friends and family because they know I prioritize safety, consistency, and genuine affection. Whether it’s an energetic walk, a fun play session, or simply providing a calm and comforting presence for a more anxious pup, I tailor my care to each dog’s individual personality and needs. I can cater to your pet throughout the day with walks, feeding, playtime, bathroom breaks, and supervision as needed. I aim to keep their routine consistent as possible. Since my husband is also available to step in and help, you can have peace of mind knowing that someone will always be right there to watch over your pet. I would love the opportunity to provide your pet with the same attention, patience, and care that I give my own. Your pet will be cared for in my home in a safe, calm, and comfortable environment, with frequent updates so owners feel confident while they're away.
About: I have been providing home-style dog boarding and pet care since 2017, with over 9 years of hands-on experience. I also worked for two years at a professional dog boarding and daycare facility in San Francisco and have experience in animal rescue. I am experienced in caring for dogs of all ages and personalities, especially puppies, senior dogs, rescue dogs, and dogs with anxiety or special needs. What sets me apart is my small, home-based care approach. I only accept 1–2 dogs at a time, which allows me to provide full attention, a calm environment, and truly personalized care for each dog. I am patient and attentive, and I adjust my care based on each dog’s personality to help them feel safe, comfortable, and at home. I stay at home most of the time and have a flexible schedule, so caring for pets is a natural part of my daily life. I take dogs out for walks, feed them, and spend time with them every day. I only accept a small number of dogs so I can give each pet plenty of attention and care. Home-style care in Castro Valley. Only 1–2 dogs at a time, never more than a small pack — so every visitor gets personal attention and a calm, consistent routine. Quiet indoor spaces to nap, multiple walks outside each day, and free meet-and-greets before any stay. I've been caring for dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs and more since 2018 and specialize in small and medium dogs under 45 lb.

“Kimberly was an excellent during all of her drop in visits to our pets. We were gone for 6 days and she dropped in consistently during the agreed times and did all the feeding/litter/play time with the pets. She even took our trash bags out and she didn’t have to do that. She is very thorough and very caring with animals. It was her first experience taking caring of bunnies and they can get messy but she did a wonderful job. Thank you Kimberly!”
“Demi did a wonderful job of watching my two cats while I was away for the weekend. When I got home, I could tell they had been well cared for, and I really appreciated the pictures she uploaded. Thank you Demi!”
“Krystle was amazing with our cat! She helped with all the things I asked for and went above and beyond and helped with other things like ant invasion when we were away. She was extremely patient and sweet with our cat that was hiding under the couch during her visits. She was able to get our cat to play with her after couple of days, thanks to Krystle’s gentle approach. I was comfortable being away and knew that my cat was being treated well and taken care of. I 100% recommend Krystle! She’s truly the best. I’ll definitely reach out to her if I need a sitter again.”
“I am beyond impressed with the care that my cat, cookie received from my cat sitter while I was away. It's evident that Supriya went above and beyond to ensure my cat was not only well-fed and safe but also showered with love and attention. The daily updates and photos provided me with great peace of mind. I'm incredibly grateful for their dedication and would highly recommend their services to any pet owner seeking top-notch care for their furry family members. Thank you so much!”

“Thank you Angela for taking care of our Vader while we were away. We appreciate the extra care of bringing in our mail, cleaning his litter box, and giving him a brushing.”
“Angelica was lovely! My two cats were fine when I got home and she also helped take care of my chickens. I received updates daily and I didn’t worry about the care for my animals. Will definitely book her again!”
“Denisse has been very helpful and responsive with her cat sitting. She’s loving and caring for my cats while I’m away, a true cat lover who knows what your cats need. We and our cats love her! Thank you, Denisse!”

About: 30 + years caring and training exotic and domestic animals in a professional setting.

About: I have hands-on experience caring for cats and currently own two of my own. I’ve been responsible for daily feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning, playtime, and making sure cats feel safe and comfortable in their environment. I also regularly care for my cousin’s cat, including feeding and general supervision. One of my previous cats was a purebred Siamese who enjoyed both indoor and outdoor time, so I’m familiar with monitoring safety, routines, and individual personality needs. I’m attentive, patient, and enjoy building trust with each pet I care for. While I currently have more experience with cats, I’m comfortable caring for dogs as well and am happy to follow detailed instructions to meet each dog’s individual needs. I’m available to provide consistent care, including daily visits and check-ins. I ensure pets have access to fresh water, food as instructed, and a clean environment, and I spend quality time with them so they feel comfortable and cared for. I aim to provide a safe, calm, and caring environment for every pet. I make sure pets are well cared for with clean spaces, regular meals, and plenty of attention. I’m patient and observant, and I enjoy spending time with pets to help them feel comfortable and relaxed. I understand how important trust is when leaving a pet with someone new, and I take that responsibility seriously. I’m comfortable caring for affectionate pets who enjoy companionship, as well as pets who prefer more independence.
“Gagan was very accommodating of our last minute request and provided estate for our cat keeping him in a separate room to make him feel comfortable. He kept us informed via updates and photos and took good care of him. Highly recommended”
About: I have experienced caring for cats with different personalities and needs. Every cat is different which is why I provide time to learn their comfort needs, keep patience with them, and learn the routine to provide them a safe and comfortable environment.
About: I use to work at a pet hotel, and loved ensuring that the pets got what they deserved, care and attention. Not every pets the same, I helped shy ones get a bit more comfortable in the chaos that is playing with other dogs. I’ve provided necessary meds and ensured pet environments stayed cleanly. If I’m not willing to play around it it’s not done. Have great experience with dogs and cats. I’m open mostly to Monday through Friday: 8am to 6PM. Can be flexible later as one offs, nights are extra. Unfortunately not offering weekends at this time. Providing companionship to your furbabys while you’re out. Giving them lots of cuddles, attention, feeding, and definitely a few walks depending on dog breed and mobility. Meds need to be discussed.
“Christina was amazing as always. While I was away, my cat was sick, and she did everything in her power to make sure my cat was okay. She is a very sweet and caring person.”

“We had a wonderful experience with Angela yesterday who was incredibly kind, prompt, and kept us fully informed with updates through the day. Olive was fed exactly on time and came home happy, relaxed, and completely comfortable. We highly recommend their services!”
“Shuvashna was absolutely great!! This was mine and nala first time using rover and honestly a bit nerve wracking at first but Shuvashna made sure we were comfortable and secure the whole time. I appreciate her taking the time to send me videos and pics the whole day while I’m at work. Nala had a great time with her and sure didn’t seem like she missed me 😂🥺 If you’re looking for someone who will take great care of your pup while you are away or even for the day .. Shuvashna is your girl!”
“Tatiana walked my dog three times while staying at her house and gave her good exercises. She let my dog playing at the park and hanging out with her ground children. I’m sure that my dog had a good time. She also took good care of her by checking her food, trying to feed her until she got enough. She is a good walker and caregiver as well. I’m happy and comfortable to leave my dog with her.”
“Harper and Bim are super sweet! My dog, JackJack, had a great time with them. It was his first time with Harper and by the end of daycare, I could tell JackJack had a fun time - playing, napping, some more playing - and rinse and repeat! I loved getting photos and videos! Thank you Harper for taking care of my fur best friend! 🐶🐾❤️”
“Absolutely love having my guys stay with Cindy! She’s great with communicating and sending photos throughout the day. My guys always seem happy going and when I pick them up.”
About: I have experiences with Senior care and basic training for puppies. I watch their body languages carefully to know when to pause a play and what they need from me :) Leia and I usually go for a walk in the morning, around 5 in the afternoon and quick bathroom break before going to bed. I work from home most of the time so id love to help to care for another dog so they’re not depressed alone at home whole the parents are off to earn money for their their pawbills 😝 I help to care for friends dogs when they need and I feed them together but separately so they don’t get food aggressive. I also monitor toys so it doesn’t create fights. Because I have Leia, I know the struggle and guilt feelings when you have vacation planned and need to leave the pup. I try my best to give lots of updates and pics so the humans can enjoy their time away as well.

About: I have experience taking care of dogs because I grew up with them. Being around dogs has always felt natural to me, so I understand the basics of feeding them, walking them, playing with them, keeping them comfortable, and paying attention to what they need. I’m gentle, patient, and attentive, but I’m also playful, so I enjoy making sure dogs are not just cared for, but actually happy and engaged. I know every dog has their own personality, routine, and comfort level, so I would always respect the owner’s instructions and take time to understand what works best for their dog. I’m currently in college and home for the summer, so my schedule is very open and flexible. I’m available for walks, playtime, drop-ins, and consistent care throughout the week. I’m happy to work with your dog’s routine and make scheduling easy for you. I care for pets by keeping their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. In a client’s home, I would follow their instructions carefully, whether that includes feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, medication, or general house rules. I want pets to feel safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for. For walks or visits, I would stay aware of my surroundings, keep dogs secure on their leash, avoid unsafe situations, and pay attention to how they’re acting. My goal is for the pet to feel cared for and for the owner to feel relaxed knowing their dog is safe and in good hands.
About: I have two dogs and two cats. I’ve done dog walking since early middle school and pet sitting for two years. I love animals and have for a long time. I’ll bring treats and spoil your furry friends! Walks, cuddles and playtime are my specialty! I just finished my semester of school and am pretty free for the summer! I love excuses to go out of the house and go on walk adventures with dogs or cuddles with your cat (or walk them if they like walks too!) For walks I like to double leash just for added security and safety with dogs. I can swing by during set times you want me to be there, give food and play or go on walks. If you want me to house and pet sit I will bring my own stuff to keep myself entertained and maybe a few treats to share with your furry friends.
“After my initial meeting with Ann-Marie I felt very secure with leaving Mia in her hands while I’m at work. Ann-Marie has been walking Mia during the week for a few months now and has proven to be very professional, consistent, responsible, and truly cares about Mia’s well being. I would 100% recommend her to for your pet care needs.”
About: I have over four years of experience caring for pets—from a small, nervous Chihuahua to a large, restless Husky. My greatest experience has been with my own pet, who has been sickly since birth and requires special care. She is currently in Mexico with her dad; I have missed her so much that I decided I could channel that feeling into helping and caring for other owners who—just like me—view their pets as part of their family. My main goal is for both parents and pets to feel calm, safe, and happy. I have a job in the afternoon-night and I think I have enough time to help you take care or walk of your pet Safety is always my top priority when caring for pets in a client’s home or during walks. I always make sure to follow the owner’s instructions carefully, including feeding routines, leash requirements, and any special care needs. I double-check doors, gates, and secure all entry points before and after visits to ensure the pet is safe at all times. During walks, I keep dogs on a secure leash and stay alert to surroundings to avoid any potential risks, such as other aggressive dogs or unsafe areas. I prefer walking in safe, familiar neighborhoods and avoid high-traffic or dangerous situations. I also monitor the pet’s behavior closely to make sure they are comfortable, calm, and not showing signs of stress. If anything unusual happens, I communicate immediately with the owner so they are always informed.

I’m currently working two part time jobs & do schooling online. This gives me great flexibility to make up some hours & pick up walks, etc! I care for my pets with the safety. As long as you provide everything I need to know about your fur baby, I will do my best to provide just that. I want to make sure every pet is comfortable & feels safe.

About: Hi! I'm Eva, and I enjoy caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities. What sets me apart is my personalized approach—I take the time to understand each dog’s unique personality, routine, and specific needs to provide the best care possible. I respect and prioritize my clients' expectations, ensuring your dog's comfort and happiness are always my top priorities.

Additionally, I have some flexibility in my work schedule, allowing me to adapt to your dog's routine and provide the care they need when they need it. My goal is to deliver attentive, loving care tailored to your dog's individual needs. Caring for your pet is an essential part of my routine, and I make it a priority to ensure each pet gets the care they need. I have the flexibility in my work to take on pets with varying needs, whether they are more independent or require extra attention and care in their routine. On a daily basis, I dedicate time for walks, feeding, and play, following any special instructions provided by pet parents. Weekly, I also set aside time for grooming or extra exercise as needed. Whatever the schedule is, I’m happy to accommodate and make it work to ensure your pet receives the best care possible! Your pet's safety and care is my number one priority. I pay close attention to them whether it's during walks or playtime or feeding time. I also take routine and instructions to the "T" - meaning if you are deliberate in your instructions on how to care for them, I will follow them accordingly. **I will send you photos/videos of your pet regularly!
“Cassandra has been taking care of my boys since early May. She is reliable, punctual, thoughtful, and caring.

Monty is always happy to see you and enjoys your visits.”

“Brian has been walking our dogs since the beginning of the year and he’s great. Great communicator and takes awesome pics of our dogs during the walk! We also had him house sit for us when we went out of town! The dogs love him!!! Definitely would recommend!”
“My dog Chewie loves Lydia for her walk. She’s reliable, communicative, and on-time (sometimes early even). Gives updates on how the walk goes, even with pictures. 10/10 would recommend Lydia for dog walking.”

“Olivia was amazing! We received updates and photos daily during Milano’s stay. Her home had a great setup with plenty of outdoor space in the yard for the dogs. She is very experienced with working with dogs. We would love to rebook with her next time!”
“Robert was great as usual even accommodating us for a last minute long stay since our other sitter did not work out. loves visiting with Robert. Robert sent us regular updates and pictures and we had peace of mind knowing he was well taken care of.”
“I’m glad I met Cindy. She is very helpful and gives you great tips on helping you become a better pet owner. First time booking Cindy and we had an excellent experience. We will continue to use Cindy for future needs.”
“Mya was amazing with Luna! She really cared for her, especially when Luna developed an unexpected hot spot — she kept me informed and made sure Luna was comfortable. I always appreciated the updates and videos she sent, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. She clearly knows what she’s doing with dogs and treated Luna like her own. Overall, I had a really positive experience and would definitely recommend her.”
“Ellie had an amazing time with Natallia. She took notes of all my instructions and paid extra attention to things that Ellie is a little bit shy of doing or eating. I definitely would trust Natallia to take care of my dog again!”
“Tracey was super communicative and cared for Leo well. She has a great set up and nice neighborhood for dogs, and her 2 boxer buddies were so friendly. Would definitely book again!”
“Sameer watched my dog as well as my parents dogs while we were in hawaii. He sent pictures and kept me updated on how she was. Charlie seemed to have had a great time and I would definitely rebook with Sammer!”
“I had such a great experience boarding my dog, Skye, over Thanksgiving week. From start to finish, the care was outstanding. Skye immediately felt comfortable, and I could tell he was in good hands the entire time. I received regular updates, including photos and messages, which gave me total peace of mind while I was away. The environment was clean, safe, and welcoming, and it was clear that Skye was treated like part of the family. He came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well-loved. I highly recommend Astrid to anyone looking for reliable, caring, and attentive dog boarding. I’ll definitely book again in the future!”
“Beyond happy with Eva and Ryan! They were very flexible and were able to watch our dog last minute. We were a little hesitant on leaving our dog overnight, but they sent us lots of updates and photos that put our minds at ease! Our dog was so happy and seemed like he didn’t want to leave. Cannot express how appreciative and satisfied we were with Eva and Ryan. Highly recommend for day sitting, boarding, or whatever you may need!!”
“Gagan was very accommodating of our last minute request and provided estate for our cat keeping him in a separate room to make him feel comfortable. He kept us informed via updates and photos and took good care of him. Highly recommended”
“My doggies were really well taken care off and I appreciated the consistent updates. Thank you so much for the peace of mind and we’ll see you again in August!”
“Estephanine is an exceptional boarder, her house is a heaven for any pet. We thought we went on a trip but turns out it was a vacation for spark with her 2 awesome golden retrievers. She is very prompt with communications and would take care of your pup like hers. Our trip was one of those rare trips when we were not at all worried about Spark. Complete peace of mind.”
“New Rover connection for us. I was out of town for five days and Stella came home happy and healthy. Will be including Scott in my trusted options when work or fun requires I travel without her.”
About: I’ve taken care of Princess for 12yrs . I grew up with a big family of pet lovers . My home for years have been the one everyone comes to on the weekend to bbq in and ofc all our furry babies are running around. I have a flexible part time job so I am free early mornings and throughout the day to go play with your pets and take them out. I also have a big home and yard if they need to come over to not stay home alone . I have a home with all fenced yard and I no longer have anymore pets , so they are free to roam around in the backyard or if they’re inside dogs they can definitely have in and out access all day to cuddle inside when they want or go get some sun and play. I’m definitely mindful on making sure you feel comfortable with me in your home if needed and would ofc go over to play and take care of your pet in the comfort of their home.
“Sarentuya was wonderful with my dog! She can be pouty and refused to go on walks, but she was so patient and gave her lots of love and attention instead. I really appreciated the photo updates and knowing she was comfortable and cared for. Highly recommend and would definitely book again!”
