“We had a wonderful experience with Cindy. She took great care of our two dogs while we were away on vacation and gave us complete peace of mind. Her communication was excellent. She sent daily updates with photos, let us know how they were doing and made sure they got their daily walks and plenty of cuddles. It was clear our dogs were happy, comfortable and well cared for. We would trust her with them again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring pet sitter.”
“I cannot express how happy we are with our dog-son Ethan's stay with Lea and her husband! This was the first time our guy ever stayed with a non-relative and Lea's frequent photo updates on Ethan's behavior, sentiments, and schedule kept us informed and excited that he too got a little vacation. Before staying with Lea, we did a meet-and-greet to make sure it was a match and Ethan instantly warmed up to her and felt comfortable in her home. I feel so fortunate to have met Lea and to have her in our corner for caring for our sweet boy. Thank you, again, Lea! : )”
“Jonathan and Tatiana did an amazing job of taking care of Edu! He had a great time at their place, having lots of fun with their pup Olivia, and they sent updates while I was away to know he was doing great. I would 100% recommend them!”
“I had a perfect experience with Gianina and her family. I felt 100% secure and confident with their care. Gianina sent photos daily and gave updates. They took care of my dog as if she were theirs. My dog is a 5lb, 4 yr. old yorkie, and she got along just fine with their dog. They made drop off and pick up easy and convenient, and the house is nicely tucked away from any main roads. I will 100% recommend and use Gianina in the future. This is my first Rover experience and it was perfect.”
“Shuvashna has been so helpful with our puppy! She's great at putting our mind at ease while we're out of town, consistently sending us photo and video updates. She takes genuine interest in our little beagle's well-being by talking with us at dropoff and pickup about any diet/bathroom issues. We're so thankful that she's given our stinkiest daughter a happy home away from home!”
“Robert was a fantastic resource for my new foundland. My regular sitter canceled last minute the night before a business trip to Europe, which left me scrambling. Luckily, Robert came to the rescue. I received daily pictures and videos of his stay, along with detailed reports. Would use again!!”
“I highly recommend Mary! This was my first time boarding Milo and he was in such great hands with her. I got pictures throughout the time I was gone which helped ease being away from my little guy. He looked so happy and I’m sure he didn’t want to come home! I will definitely be using Mary in the future :)”
“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”
“Ari is amazing! He stayed with our doggie for 5 nights and 6 days. Ari sent photos and videos which we greatly appreciated. Our dog can get rashy if she's on grass for too long. She was happy, loved, and rash free when we picked her up. Thank you so much again Ari! We appreciate you! Our doggy will definitely be back :)”
“Giancarlo was supper accommodating and took great care of my dog. I wasn't there to drop my dog off, but I was not worried at all. Super professional, would highly recommend :)”
“I had a fantastic experience trusting Jenna with my two pups and will definitely use her again! She is kind and gentle and has a great understanding of dog dynamics. She keeps her place clean which I also appreciate. Communication was great as well.”
“She did an amazing job with Aloo! He wanted to go back into her house when I picked him up. He made friends with her dog and she ensured that he was safe, happy and comfortable. Thank you so much”
“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!”
“I really appreciate Natallia watching ALL 4 of my cats. She did a fantastic job. They were spoiled and they did not want to leave her home. Natallia provided me pictures and updates of my fur babies. I had peace of mind while they were under her care. I highly recommend her.”
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.
“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!”
“Stephanie and Joe are amazing! They kept me updated with lots of photos of my happy dog! Lots of walks and cuddles! Would use them again in a heartbeat. Think my Dog had more fun on vacation than I did! Thank you again to these two for taking such good care of Milo!”

“Kim took great care of our skittish but goofy lil boy, as well as our home. Her communication was excellent and we enjoyed all the wonderful photos! Her own experience with cats allowed her to gauge his readiness to play and interact, as well as how to handle his over excitement when he would eat too fast. Thank you Kim for hanging out with Bertie and putting up with all of his whims!”
About: My friends growing up had cats and I currently have family members that have cats. I can read their body language if they want space or are playing. I understand the way cats play, how to approach them, cleaning their litter box, and more.
“Demi was so great again! When we had challenges with the door code for entry, Demi immediately flagged it and was so kind to revisit and check on our cat once the issue was resolved. Thanks again, Demi!”
“Dani sent lots of pictures and was very thorough on her Rover card letting us know exactly how much the kitties ate and how they were and checked the water and liter for us. We will definitely book Dani again.”
“Denise was great for a drop-in visit for our two kitties while we were out of town. She had great communication and took great care of our girls. We would definitely use her again!”
“Supriya took amazing care of my senior cat. My cat is very shy and does not let anyone pet her. However, she took a liking to Supriya right away and was happy to get head scratches & pets, and even purred! Supriya really has a wonderful way with cats. I appreciate the patient, kind and gentle way she cared for my cat. Cannot recommend her enough.”
“Christina will always get 5 stars from us. She went beyond our expectations when sitting our babies. I am grateful that I found such a wonderful woman to watch our kitties. ”
“Luella took really good care of my two cats. Her visit notes were very detailed. She took extra care to look for the cats to make sure they were okay. She also went the extra step to clean up their messes. Her communication is excellent and I could tell she has a lot of love and affection for animals. I would book her again.”
“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.”
About: With over 16 years of experience in veterinary medicine and a lifetime of loving and caring for animals, I bring professional knowledge and genuine compassion to every pet I care for. My background includes veterinary assisting, client education, hospital management, and working alongside veterinarians to provide exceptional patient care. I have experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, breeds, and temperaments, including puppies, kittens, seniors, and pets with medical conditions or special needs. I am comfortable administering oral medications, monitoring behavior for signs of illness, following detailed care instructions, and maintaining daily routines. I understand that every pet has a unique personality, and I take the time to build trust, provide enrichment, and ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. My goal is to give pet parents complete peace of mind knowing their furry family member is receiving experienced, attentive, and compassionate care. Pet care has always been a natural part of my life, both personally and professionally. I intentionally schedule my time so I can provide reliable, unhurried care and give each pet the individual attention they deserve. Whether your pet needs a quick potty break, an extended walk, overnight companionship, medication administration, or simply someone to spend quality time with them, I am committed to maintaining their normal routine. I understand that consistency helps pets feel secure, and I pride myself on being dependable, punctual, and flexible whenever possible to meet the needs of both pets and their families. Your pet’s health, safety, and happiness are always my highest priorities. My veterinary background allows me to recognize subtle changes in behavior, appetite, mobility, or overall health that others may overlook. I carefully follow all feeding instructions, medication schedules, exercise requirements, and household routines exactly as requested. When caring for pets in your home, I treat your home with the same respect I would my own while creating a calm, low-stress environment for your pet. I use secure leashes and harnesses during walks, supervise outdoor time, monitor interactions with other animals, and provide plenty of affection, playtime, and enrichment. I also believe communication is key, so you’ll receive regular updates and photos, allowing you to relax knowing your beloved companion is in experienced, caring hands.
About: Despite never owning a cat myself, I have cat sat for friends and briefly cared for some 4-5 week old abandoned kittens I found. I'm well versed on basic cat care and willing to learn for special needs like meds and dietary restrictions. I have a hobby photography background, so expect photo updates of your fur babies!
“Jennifer followed my detailed instructions very well and sent me constant updates with pictures while I went on a long deserved vacation. Kitty got sick a week prior so I was worried that she hasn’t fully recovered. Luckily there were no issues. Thanks Jennifer for everything! Highly recommend to others.”
About: My family has had our dog Scooby since he was 3 weeks old and he is now 6 years old. I’ve trained him since he was young how to behave and he knows plenty of tricks too!

My schedule can be flexible so let me know and I might be able to accommodate! I prefer to travel to clients within the East Bay Area. Safety is always my top priority in mind, for both your pet and myself. I understand that some dogs need time to adjust to new people and I always want to create a comfortable environment for them.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Cherryland
Prices are estimates per day for 1 dog. Pricing may vary based on your search and includes a booking fee of 11%.
“I don’t know where to start! Shuvashna and her husband are amazing caretakers for Dolce! Dolce immediately took a liking to a Shuvashna and her husband. Did I mention that I get daily pics and videos (and they are amazing!) to follow her growth and progress while I’m at work? We’ve all found ourselves asking one another “Did she grow more?” That’s how attentive they are. The pup comes home tired and ready to turn in for the night from all day play, which helps sooooo much. Their backyard might as well be a dog park because it most certainly accommodates the hot laps these little 4 legged children are capable of. If I could rate them more than 5 stars, I most certainly would. When I pick up Dolce in the afternoon/evening, Shuvashna and her husband will give me updates and anything new that Dolce does. The plus side to it all, is that Dolce gets to socialize with all different pups! She had a really bad first meet and greet with one of our other family dogs (my sweet girl was bit on the ear ?). I thought all hope was lost. Ever since going into care with Shuvashna, Dolce has found the courage and the heart to socialize to give it another chance and make more furry friends ?. She’s even taken to loving Shuvashna and her husband. I can’t thank them enough for the love they give Dolce. Im so happy I- we found them! They’ve definitely earned mine and Dolce’s trust. Looking forward to taking Dolce for more fun filled happy days! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Jalen was amazing with our puppy! We needed a last minute baby sitter and Jalen was quick to accommodate! He would consistently send photo updates of the puppy. He also made sure to give our energetic pup enough attention so that he could sleep easy at night. I would definitely recommend jalen if you are looking for services!”
“Katherine took a good care of my Lucky even though she is shy to most of dogs where Katherine has a large dog that lucky might get scared of. Lucky seemed to have a great time with her son and her dog under Katherine’s care. I’ve just booked her again.”
“Cindy was such a great sitter. Winnie was super excited to meet her and seemed immediately comfortable. They had a day running around town and resting at the house. I’d definitely ask Cindy to watch Winnie again!”
“Harper was amazing! She was very flexible when my schedule changed and I had to pick up Rusty a little later than planned. She also sent pictures and videos of him playing with his new buddies. She’s super sweet & I felt very comfortable having her watch Rusty! Highly recommend!”
“Always a happy camper with Ari! My Akita, Django, is always excited at drop off and I get great reports upon pick up. I highly recommend Ari because he is dependable and trustworthy.”
“Duke came home tired and that tells me he had nothing but a good time! He was with 5 other friends and though unfortunately Duke was barking alot, Siu was patient and kind to him. He sent me photos and updates and even helped us give him his antibiotics. Overall, very pleasant experience, highly recommended! This was also a last minute request and accommodated us without any issues”
“Pamela is the perfect person to trust with your pup! We were a little nervous going in as we’ve never used a sitter for any of our animals before. Pamela made us feel very at ease. She has a wonderful set up for play and rest. She gave great updates and took wonderful care of our Maya. We would definitely recommend her to others!”
“She was incredibly patient and caring with my puppy. Since he hasn’t completed all of his vaccinations yet, she was able to accommodate him by only watching one dog at a time, which gave me great peace of mind. She regularly sent me photos and updates, so I always knew how he was doing. She also helped with his potty training and was very attentive to his needs. I could tell she genuinely cared about him and treated him like her own. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful, and responsible dog sitter! I will definitely rebook her if needed in the future! Thanks Yan!”
“Giancarlo is AMAZING!! He watched our two dogs today and it went really well! Both our dogs are very high energy, and he legitimately played fetch with them for hours. It’s evening now and they would normally be bouncing off the walls but they can barely keep their eyes open, they’re so tired. I will definitely be reaching out to Giancarlo the next time we need doggy day care!!”

About: I’ve owned 2 dogs in my lifetime, a terrier-mix and Pomeranian-mix. Raised both from puppies through their unfortunate passing.

In door option is also available but clients should note that the home has 3 floors but will happily assist friends in need up the stairs.
“Tatiana is a nice, sweet, and pleasant lady. She welcomed us even though I was late for a scheduled drop off time. She answered my questions right away and I understood how she spent her day with Tatiana’s care. She took my dog out to the park and walked her around the park. I know my dog enjoyed staying with her because she seemed tired when I picked her up and went to sleep right after we got home.”
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’ve grown up with all kinds of animals from dogs to also small animals and reptiles. I’ve grown with dogs through all stages of their life from puppies to senior dogs. I feel I’ve always been empathetic to what animals may want/need, able to read their body language, always up for playing or cuddling, etc. I currently have a high energy mixed dog that I’ve trained myself. I’ve cared for her through being a puppy, her needs after surgeries, giving medications, helping comfort through anxiety, and playing throughout the day to take care of her energy needs. I have a big back yard if you need day care and your dog would have a companion to play with! We take daily walks that we’d love to have your pup join! I am a stay at home mom so I have complete availability to help care for your pets! I currently walk my dog every morning, but that can be adjusted to fit your needs for your dog to be walked. Because I’m a stay at home mom, day care is completely open for your pet to be at my house. We allow pets on furniture so your pet can be comfortable. Our dog is high energy so your pup can also get some energy out! Our backyard is very big to accommodate any running/playing they’d like to do. If daycare isn’t needed, I’m completely available to check in on your pet anytime as well! If your pet is coming to my house, it is completely open for your pet to feel comfortable and explore their surroundings. Our back door is always open so they can use the bathroom when they want to or also play and run around with our dog! Water is always out and available. If you’d like check ins at your home, I would of course respect your home and privacy. Nothing would be touched unless necessary to care for your animal the way you’re asking me to. Whatever your needs are, I will completely follow.
“Naomi is a great dog walker, she gives my Jack Russell Terrier, Dahlia, a good long walk which she really enjoys. She is always on time and makes sure Dahlia gets her full hour of walking.”
“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.”
“Our dog Mochi as well as our family love Huei Sin! She has been so responsive, flexible and loving. We love seeing our walk updates with photos and special messages. We look forward to seeing Huei Sin every week. Thank you!”

About: Hi! I'm Harper and I've always been in love with animals, especially dogs, since I was young. I enjoy making connections and friendships with them, and they make me so happy. I am a dog mommy of a sweet Shiba Inu, and he is my cute BFF. When your furry baby is with me, I will treat him or her like my own, making sure that he or she is feeling as happy and comfortable as possible. I am pretty good at adapting to all of the unique dog personalities, and I'm very patient and gentle towards them. I will play games, take him/her on nature walks, and snuggle him/her. We have a huge dog park within 5 minutes of walking distance so they will sure to have a lot of play-dates! :) Your dog's well-being and safety are my priority. I ask that you bring any toys, water & food bowl, leash and/or harness, and food and treats (if you wish). I currently live in a house with backyard in Hayward. Let me know if you have any requests, and I will easily accommodate to your needs. Feel free to contact me with any questions, and I hope to see you and your lovely dog soon ♡ I'm currently work from home, which means your dog will always have human companionship throughout the day. I'm available for boarding on weekdays and weekends after 7 a.m. I care for your pet just like my own. I try to maintain a consistent schedule as instructed, and provide plenty of playtime with them in my fenced backyard. My furbaby is always happy to be your pup’s new best friend!
About: I’m a huge dog lover who’s very fortunate to have always been around them. I’ve grown up with big and small dogs and play with the dogs at the shelter regularly. My pup (10 year old terrier mix) gets daily walks, cuddles, and is best friends with all the small dogs at the dog park. Dogs are so loving and deserve to be treated with the same love and care. I am available early in the mornings everyday (before 10am and after 5pm on T and Th and before 2:30pm M,W,F.) I’m available all day on weekends and holidays. I try to stay home as much as I can. If I’m not home, my mom and older sister are. I feed them breakfast and then go on a neighborhood walk at around 8am. If they cannot walk, I have a pet stroller. When at home, they will lounge around inside or outside. Backyard door remains open during the day so they can come inside and outside as they please. The yard is fully fenced. If it’s a hot day I will give them a bath, set a fan, or go somewhere cooler like the marina.
About: I've been raised to love animals since childhood, and we've had numerous dogs and cats at home growing up. My mother taught me a great deal about treating animals with care and love. I am retired and am available for cat sitting on weekdays between 8 am to 5 pm. I look forward to doting on and pampering your precious ones when they are under my care. With utmost care and attention in your own home. I know that cats are happiest in their own home, doing their own routines. Their comfort is my top priority.
About: I’m a dog mom to a Goldendoodle I’ve raised since he was 8 weeks old, so I have hands-on experience with puppy routines, feeding, walks, crate training, enrichment, and basic obedience. Caring for my own dog has taught me how important consistency, patience, and close attention are. I’m comfortable following detailed care instructions and routines, and I’ll treat your pet with the same care and attention I give my own. I’m also happy to provide plenty of photos and updates during each visit so you can feel comfortable while you’re away. I’m currently in graduate school and have a structured weekly schedule, which allows me to plan pet care reliably. I also have a dog of my own, so I’m very used to structuring my day around walks, feeding, playtime, and maintaining a consistent routine. I’m typically available Tuesday afternoons and evenings, with additional evening and weekend availability depending on the week. I keep my Rover calendar updated to reflect my current availability. For drop-in visits, I’ll carefully follow your pet’s usual routine and any instructions you provide, including feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, playtime, and other care needs. As a dog owner myself, I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet and feel confident that your routines and preferences will be respected. I’m very open to discussing expectations beforehand and adjusting my care to each pet and pet parent’s preferences so everyone feels comfortable. I’m also mindful about securely closing doors and gates, using leashes properly, and keeping pets supervised. I’ll send photos and updates during each visit so you always know how your pet is doing.
About: My family has had our dog Scooby since he was 3 weeks old and he is now 6 years old. I’ve trained him since he was young how to behave and he knows plenty of tricks too! I also used to dog sit/babysit for family members often. I currently have an internship and am busy Tuesdays-Thursdays but I’m available on Mondays, Fridays, and weekends when needed. My schedule can be flexible so let me know and I might be able to accommodate! I prefer to travel to clients within the East Bay Area. Safety is always my top priority in mind, for both your pet and myself. I understand that some dogs need time to adjust to new people and I always want to create a comfortable environment for them.
About: I’ve been around dogs and caring for pets for many years. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to feed, walk, play with, and care for their pets while they’re away. I’m dependable, patient, and treat every pet like they’re part of the family. I understand that every dog has their own personality and routine, and I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and get plenty of attention while in my care. I have a flexible schedule that allows me plenty of time to care for your pets. I’m available throughout the week and can work with your pet’s normal routine for walks, feeding, playtime, potty breaks and plenty of attention. I’m also happy to discuss your pet’s specific schedule and needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I’ll follow your instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any special routines. I’ll make sure your pet receives plenty of attention and is always cared for in a safe environment. When caring for pets in your home, I’ll also treat your home with the same care and respect I would my own.
“Jackie and Jannalea were very sweet and patient with my dog Ponyo. Ponyo got her walks and they managed to take the same route that I usually do without my prompting! Got photos and updates each time so I knew what was going on. Wouldn't hesitate to book again!”

Please don’t hesitate to contact me with any concerns or questions. I am all about making my client comfortable as I know your pet is a part of your family and there is a need for comfortability both with me as your pet’s caretaker, your pet, and you as the owner being happy with their care.
“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: Dogs have been part of my life for almost as long as I can remember. I grew up with dogs, and my parents bred and showed Dobermans, so I was surrounded from an early age by thoughtful, consistent dog care and training. With only a few gaps during college and early adulthood, I've had a dog by my side throughout my entire life. I'm currently a dog owner myself, and my dog is very much part of my everyday life. That's also how I approach boarding. Rather than caring for a large group of dogs, I prefer to host one guest at a time so they can settle into our household and receive plenty of individual attention, companionship, walks, play, and affection. I'm home much of the day, so a visiting dog isn't routinely left alone for long stretches. I believe dogs respond best to patience, consistency, clear boundaries, positive interaction, and lots of affection. I also know every dog has its own personality, habits, and comfort level, so I want to learn what makes your dog feel safe and at home. My goal is simple: while you're away, your dog gets to live as a beloved member of the household rather than feeling like they're being sent away to boarding. I work primarily from home, and my own dog is already my near-constant companion, so caring for another dog fits very naturally into my daily life. When I board a dog, my intention is for them to join our household and our routine rather than spend long stretches of the day alone. That means plenty of companionship, regular walks and outdoor time, play, relaxation, and, when it's appropriate for the individual dog, coming along with us on dog-friendly outings. I take my own dog with me frequently and am happy to do the same with a guest who enjoys it. Most importantly, I adjust the routine to the dog. Some dogs love being out and about; others are happiest relaxing somewhere familiar and quiet. During their stay, I pay attention to what makes them comfortable and adapt accordingly. I want each dog in my care to feel safe, included, and genuinely at home while their family is away. Safety starts with making sure a dog is a good fit for our home. Before a first stay, I prefer to meet with you and your dog and introduce them to my dog so we can make sure everyone is comfortable together. I strive to understand your dog's normal routine, personality, feeding and walking schedule, house rules, medications or special needs, and anything that makes them anxious, excited, or especially happy. I follow your instructions and try to keep familiar routines consistent while adapting to what I observe during the stay. I host only one guest dog at a time, which allows me to give them plenty of individual attention and closely monitor how they're settling in. I use leashes and secure handling outdoors, keep food and other potential sources of conflict managed carefully, and never assume that two dogs who get along well don't still need thoughtful supervision. Most importantly, I pay attention. Dogs communicate constantly through their behavior, and I want to notice when a guest is relaxed, uncomfortable, tired, excited, or needs something different. My goal is to provide a safe, calm home where your dog can become part of the family while they're in my care.

“We had a wonderful experience with Cindy. She took great care of our two dogs while we were away on vacation and gave us complete peace of mind. Her communication was excellent. She sent daily updates with photos, let us know how they were doing and made sure they got their daily walks and plenty of cuddles. It was clear our dogs were happy, comfortable and well cared for. We would trust her with them again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring pet sitter.”
“We are very happy that we found Olivia. We had another rover sitter cancel on us shortly before we were heading out of town, and Olivia helped us out on short notice. She did a great job communicating with us while we were out, and our pup, Zoe, looked very comfortable and happy at Olivia's place. She was flexible with our pick up and drop off times, and she genuinely cares about the dogs that she watches. We definitely recommend Olivia and will be reaching out to her for any future dog sitting needs. Thanks, Olivia!!”
“Sameer was amazing! He took great care of the big guy, sent daily pictures and made sure he was safe and had fun. Definitely would recommend to anyone who needs a sitter for their pup.”
“Jonathan and Tatiana did an amazing job of taking care of Edu! He had a great time at their place, having lots of fun with their pup Olivia, and they sent updates while I was away to know he was doing great. I would 100% recommend them!”
“Michael and his wife Cindy are very nice and I can trust them for my dog. They both greeted after the booking and they work as a great team for the clear and easy communication. I had to modify my booking due to the schedule change and they were so nice to adjust it for me. I will definitely ask them again to watch my dog when needed. Highly recommend them.”
“Robert was a fantastic resource for my new foundland. My regular sitter canceled last minute the night before a business trip to Europe, which left me scrambling. Luckily, Robert came to the rescue. I received daily pictures and videos of his stay, along with detailed reports. Would use again!!”
“Ari is amazing! He stayed with our doggie for 5 nights and 6 days. Ari sent photos and videos which we greatly appreciated. Our dog can get rashy if she's on grass for too long. She was happy, loved, and rash free when we picked her up. Thank you so much again Ari! We appreciate you! Our doggy will definitely be back :)”
“Alex was great with Rhône. He allowed us to come over and meet him prior to our scheduled boarding. He provided regular updates on how Rhône was doing, eating and his walks. Alex even noticed a bump on Rhône that we had not noticed before and provided some insight on what it might be. Thank you for taking care of Rhône and we hope to come again soon!”
“Giancarlo was supper accommodating and took great care of my dog. I wasn't there to drop my dog off, but I was not worried at all. Super professional, would highly recommend :)”
“Angela was amazing. We were honestly a little nervous to leave Benny but it could not have gone better. She was easy to get a hold of and constantly communicated with us. She sent us frequent updates with pictures and went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable. She took fantastic care of Benny! 10/10 would definitely recommend!”
“Dean was great and definitely made the experience worry free. He had great communication, flexible with my schedule and respectful. Tubby seemed to have great time with Dean and I will definitely hire Dean again.”
About: I got my first dog, Cookie, in 2017, but I had birds and fish as pets prior. I took care of most of the toys, treats, food and vet care for him. He is now around 11 and although I've moved out of the family home, I'm helping my parents transition him to senior care level: watching out for his joints and diet mostly. I've since moved in with my partner who has a 4 year old Corgi. He is a friendly, but high energy pup who would benefit from having other dogs around to play with. I sometimes dog sit my family dog with the corgi, so I am well versed in juggling puppy energy and training alongside senior care. I have a hobby photography background, so expect photo updates of your fur babies! 9/7 Mon ( Labor Day): FREE ALL DAY I'm currently mostly available on weekends (Fri, Sat, Sun) and holidays. Only looking to board/daycare one dog at a time right now, just so I don't overwhelm my own dog. May increase to more than one in the future! Mon-Thurs: Daycare/House sitting: None. Boarding: Drop-off after 5pm Drop in visits, dog walking: Nights only, 8pm onwards. Fri/Sat/Sun availability: Usually free all day for all offered services. Limited availability: 8/22: Free 5pm onwards. 8/29: Free 8pm onwards. 8/30: Free 5pm onwards. 9/5 Sat (Labor Day weekend): Free 3pm onwards. 9/6 Sun (Labor Day weekend): Free 6pm onwards. We have basic grooming equipment, if needed, to file nails, shave paw pads, and brush out fur. Weekends, I am able to spend more time with pets, like go on longer walks and visit pet friendly places (if you're ok with that). I have a fenced yard with grass/concrete area and an energetic Corgi for your dog to play with! I'm very respectful in others' homes and will strive to leave everything the way I found it or better. I am super organized and love relying on making to-do lists to keep track of all my tasks and responsibilities. I have a whiteboard dedicated for this at my home, but use my phone when I'm outside or in other's homes. I'm open to both crate trained and not crate-trained dogs. For cats, I make sure the litterbox is always clean and try to play with them if they want. Additionally, I'm always mindful of entering and leaving homes, in case a pet makes an escape attempt through my open door. I'm very detail-oriented, have great communication skills, and take great notes. So I make sure I know exactly the type of care you want for your pet!
“Jocelyn was amazing! We got lots of updates and photos of our pup during her stay with her! 🥰 She was also accommodating to our pups needs and comforted her as she was afraid of the fireworks on the 4th. Definitely recommend to book with her she was great!”
“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!”
“Kendal was so great with Raven and very easy to work with. She got Raven to relax and cuddle by day 2 of knowing her which is a huge deal for our anxious little rescue baby!”
“I really appreciate Natallia watching ALL 4 of my cats. She did a fantastic job. They were spoiled and they did not want to leave her home. Natallia provided me pictures and updates of my fur babies. I had peace of mind while they were under her care. I highly recommend her.”
“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!”
