“It was my first time leaving my dog anywhere and I was really nervous! I was being that annoying mom that would text and ask how my dog is doing and Marsha was nice and responded and sent me pictures :) I know it'll take my dog some getting used to but I am totally comfortable leaving her with Marsha again now :) ”
“I had a fantastic experience with Lihuan! I received daily updates about my dog, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear from the photos and messages that my pup was happy and well cared for. I could tell that Lihuan treated my dog like family, and I really appreciate the love and attention they provided. I highly recommend Lihuan to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”
“Very happy repeat customer! You know they’re good when your dog jumps up and down in excitement as soon as you bring the dog bed to the car and jumps right in 😅!”
“Lavanya is very good with dogs, and took great care of our dog. She shared multiple updates with photos and videos throughout the stay. She far exceeded our expectations, moving her schedule around to make sure that our dog got enough playtime with her dog. Would certainly go back.”
“I highly recommend Lily to anyone looking for a sitter. She is very kind and friendly with dogs. Our dog is anxious in new places. Lily clearly understood her nature and took excellent care of her. This is the second time leaving our dog with her and our dog loves Lily. She sends daily updates with pictures which helped us be at ease and enjoy our vacation. Lily is the best and is one of my go to dog sitters.”
“We had such a great experience with Cecilia and Ethan! I was honestly a little nervous at first since I had never used Rover before or had strangers care for our dogs, especially since one of our dogs requires daily medication. We decided to do an initial meet-and-greet beforehand so we could get to know Cecilia and Ethan and make sure they were the right fit, and I’m so glad we did! I shared a detailed care guide with them, and they followed everything to a tee. They were incredibly responsible, attentive, and responsive throughout our entire trip. They also went above and beyond by taking our dogs out to the lake and even to Monterey! We received lots of photos and videos every day, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Our dogs basically had a little vacation of their own! 🥹 It’s very clear that Cecilia and Ethan genuinely care about dogs and put a lot of thought into making sure they were happy, comfortable, and well cared for. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and will absolutely be going with Cecilia and Ethan again the next time we need someone to care for our dogs. Highly recommend them! 🐶♥️”
“Guava really enjoyed her stay with Judy and we even got some tips on training her. I have already booked another stay with Judy. We got plenty of pics and videos during the stay and I am very happy with how the reservation turned out.”
“I had the pleasure of having Siqin take care of my dog, Jack, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. From the start, she was incredibly responsive and kept me updated with plenty of pictures and videos, so I always knew Jack was in good hands. It was clear that Jack was comfortable and happy, and I loved seeing how well he got along with her. Siqin also made sure to take Jack on regular walks, which he absolutely loved. It was such a relief knowing that Jack was getting the care and attention he needed while I was away. I can't recommend her enough—she’s professional, caring, and truly passionate about pets. If you're looking for a dog sitter, Siqin is the one!”
“Nancy has great communication, sending up photos and messages during even short stays with her. We appreciate her responsiveness and flexibility!”
“Jianli & Wiena took very good care of our dog. They were very caring and took care of all her needs and send us lots of photos and videos with regular updates. We highly recommend him & will definitely use them again.”
“Yenju is such a terrific doggy care taker! She was so kind and patient with our dog Kip. Her communication was consistent, timely, and very honest. Furthermore- she went out of her way to listen to me explain what Kip needed to feel safe and happy while we were traveling, and she gave him healthy snacks like boiled eggs when he wouldn't eat his food! She was also punctual and very flexible when my family was coordinating pick up times. I cannot say enough nice things about Yenju and her family caring for Kip- I will definitely be booking again!! Thank you Yenju!!”
“I am happy we found Xiaokun. Our foster fail puppy who is a 6 month German Shepherd went to him for multiple doggy day care days and one boarding visit. She came back each time happy and tired. I really appreciated how Xiaokun followed our instructions and had great communication, especially when we boarded our pup shortly after her spay surgery. Also loved that on the doggy day care days he took our pup on awesome hikes/walks and sent pics for our peace of mind. Xiaokun has great calm energy and that definitely translated to making my pups stay a great one. Definitely recommend!”
“Cookie was takin in with open arms and cared for as if she was theirs. Hong provided daily updates and photos, cookie seemed very happy and way too comfortable (lol). Thats the doodle in her! Thank you again watching our pup!”
“We boarded our German shepherd (Bentley) with Ken for nearly 2 weeks while we were out of the country. We were extremely happy with the way Ken took care of our Bentley. Ken was very professional and extremely caring towards Bentley. He was flexible with the drop-off/pick-up timings. He kept us up to date with pictures and videos almost every day :) I even had to suggest that he didn't need to send pictures & videos that often :) Bentley has made friends with Neo, which is wonderful for us coz Bentley wouldn't easily mingle with other pets. Bentley thoroughly enjoyed his stay at Ken's place! We'll definitely book with Ken in the future! :)”
“Nina and Tony were absolutely incredible with our dog, Rain. From the moment we left for our trip, they made us feel completely at ease. They went above and beyond in every way possible, especially with their communication. We received frequent updates, thoughtful messages, and so many pictures and videos that we never had to wonder how Rain was doing. Finding someone you trust with your dog is difficult, but Nina and Tony exceeded every expectation we had. We came home to a happy pup! We would trust Nina and Tony with Rain again without a second thought. They are simply the best. Thank you soooooooooo much!”
About: I have been taking care of pets basically all my life, at my grandma house we use to have a lot of animals, and she taught me the love that they need and now I want to keep sharing that love.

At my house we have plenty of space where they can stay and play and where I’m able to take care of them all the time
“Kristy was prompt, kind and asked relevant questions at the meet and greet with our 6 year old shepherd/collie mix. She hosted our dog for the weekend and shared photos and videos of their time together. The weekend seems to have gone well. Kristy was also quick to respond through the app over the weekend and was flexible with drop off/pick up times. We would definitely have Kristy dog sit Moka again.”

I was worried since most people don't have much experience with bunnies, but Paige asked thorough questions to make sure she cared for Luna in the best way possible. Would extremely recommend her!”
“Kruti sent a few pictures of our cats each day and was quick to respond to messages (both when coordinating beforehand and while we were away). Thanks, Kruti!”
“Jill was wonderful. She was so patient with my shy cats and made sure they ate! She also cleaned up after them when they were messy. I really appreciated all the great photos. This was the first time my cats and I had a non family member take care of the cats, and Jill took care of my anxiety as well as my cats’ needs.”

About: I used to live with a roommate with two cats and helped her out with feeding the cats and cleaning their litter boxes whenever she’s out of town. I do prefer a meet and greet ahead of my drop in visits!
“Jessica is a fantastic sitter! She took great care of our cat during the holiday break, even on bad weather days.

It gave me great peace of mind knowing my cats were in such caring and capable hands. I highly recommend Jennifer to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter.”

We would be happy to have Xueying care for Leia regularly and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a kind and trustworthy pet sitter.”

“We had another wonderful experience! They were incredibly communicative, sent lots of pictures and updates throughout the stay, and made our dog feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for. We will definitely continue to use them in the future and highly recommend them!”
“Rose was excellent! Super flexible and took good care of my 7 month old puppy. We did a meet and greet prior to her babysitting and when I brought my puppy back for sitting, he was super excited to see her! It looked like he had a blast from day care & when he came home he was so worn out lol. I’m very happy she was kind to him and kept him stimulated and entertained! Would definitely book again”

“Simba had a great day at Elise's. She went out of her way to ensure he had the greatest care. She kept sending pictures and updates throughout the day and was always reachable when needed. Highly recommend her!”
“Our FMD Noodle had a great time with Phina! She came home tired from plenty of exercise in the backyard. Noodle tends to be scared in new environments (especially places with hardwood floors), but she seemed relatively at ease at Phina's place - Phina really knows how to connect with dogs! Her big heart and immense patience make her a great dog-sitter, especially for fearful dogs.”
“Shruti, her husband Gaurav and their dog Toto is an amazing family! I was extremely pleased with how they took care of my dog, Loochie. They gave her quality time, played with her and gave her an extremely comfortable environment to snuggle for hours! Loochie would love to be back with them again!”
“They were great! They sent near hourly updates, included him on their trail, and provided blankets so he didn’t struggle on hardwood flooring. Next time I’ll provide additional blankets!”
“Lavanya did an excellent job communicating and taking great care of Sheru. She sent regular updates throughout his stay, which gave me peace of mind. Sheru was calm, happy, and clearly well cared for when I picked him up. Her dog, Coco, is also very friendly and was a wonderful companion for Sheru. I would definitely recommend Lavanya!”
“Shweta is a loving and caring dog sitter who goes above and beyond to make pets feel safe and happy. She is reliable, attentive, and treats every dog as if they were her own. I always have peace of mind knowing my dog is in her care. I highly recommend Sweta to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate dog sitter.❤️🐶”
“Pallavi was very caring for Zoey. She stayed with Zoey throughout the day, slowly introduced Zoey to their golden retriever, and asked questions about Zoey to ensure the best before looking after her. Pallavi cares about the small details about your pet and was very loving with Zoey. I recommend Pallavi!”
About: I've been caring for dogs for as long as I can remember and truly enjoy spending time with them. Whether it's going for walks, playtime, feeding, or giving plenty of love and attention, I make sure every pup feels safe, happy, and comfortable. I also have experience with basic obedience training and understand the importance of keeping a consistent routine. As a dog owner myself, I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your furry family member. I'll treat your dog like one of my own and provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you're away. If dogs could leave reviews, mine would definitely give me **two paws up!** 🐾 As a full-time stay-at-home mom, I’m able to provide plenty of attention, care, and quality time for your pup throughout the day. Your dog will receive lots of love, supervision, playtime, and cuddles in a calm and caring home environment. I also have a very flexible schedule and am generally available any day of the week for boarding or daycare. I have a very friendly and patient golden retriever of my own that will keep your dog company. We live right near a wonderful park which would be perfect to walk your dog and let him/her play. Your dog will be super pampered with lots of love and cuddles.
About: We’ve had pets all our lives. Currently, we have two cats. For the most part, someone is always WFH. The only day one of us isn’t WFH is Thursday. If we know early enough, we can flex our schedules if any sitting is needed on Thursday. We’ve watched bunnies, cats, and dogs for friends/family including giving medication. We have had no aggression from our pets with the pets we’ve watched. We have a second room(atm being used as an office/guest room), so if you want your pet separate from ours pets, that is something we can accommodate. For dogs during boarding, our household prefers dogs that tend to ignore our cats. Also, we have a preference for senior dogs since they tend to be low energy and do not require long walks to use the restroom. For cats, we have experience with all kinds of energy and ages. If you have a cat with a lot of energy, our Taro girl has shown that she loves playing with all the energetic kitties and helps them come out of their shell. However, both our cats can adapt to senior cats as they both love to lounge. We are willing to negotiate our prices if you believe your pet to be low maintenance or if for example doggy daycare, your pet would be with us for less than 7 hours. Just ask and we can see what we can do during the meet and greet. There is usually always someone at home except Thursday. If you need sitting help on a Thursday, reach out early and we can see about flexing our WFH schedule for that week. One of us is a morning person and the other an evening person in case you have a pet with a weird schedule. We ask for a clear schedule such as when to walk and feed and follow it. This information will always vary depending on the pet or even if they are on medication. For all pets, we’ve given them some space, especially from our pets and seen if they can interact or not depending on what their owners want. We also try to incorporate playtime if they want that.
“Nicole is awesome! She sent me updates throughout the day which I really appreciated receiving at work. My dog gets nervous around bigger dogs and avoids them but her husky was well behaved which was evident by how comfortable Zoey seemed around her. Nicole walked Zoey wI highly recommend Nicole if you want to know your dog will be well taken care of.”
About: I have taken care of many of my friends dogs while they are on vacation. The dogs were happy staying and got along well with me and my dog. I work from home with a very flexible schedule. So I have plenty of time to take care of dogs. Let me know what time works! I have experience taking care of my family dog, and many friends dog. I’m very familiar with keeping them safe and happy. Also, I can spot it if there are anything going wrong.
About: We have shared our home with dogs and cats for over 30 years. For more than two decades, we've served as a foster home for Furry Friends Rescue, caring for dogs and cats of every age, breed, temperament, and medical need while they waited for their forever homes. That kind of fostering means we've handled it all: bottle-feeding newborn kittens, house-training anxious rescue puppies, managing senior pets with arthritis or special diets, and giving extra patience to animals recovering from neglect or trauma. We know how to read an animal's body language, spot early signs something's wrong, and adjust our approach to fit each pet's personality rather than expecting them to adjust to us. We no longer have pets of our own, which means your pet gets our full attention, energy, and home, without competing with a resident dog or cat for space or affection. Our house is calm, comfortable, and set up for animals to feel safe. We do still have foster cats that are friendly with other animals. Whether your pet needs a quiet, structured routine, extra TLC, or just an experienced hand who won't be fazed by anything, we've likely already seen it and handled it with care. Pet care isn't squeezed into our schedule, it is our schedule. Both of us are home full-time, with no kids and no pets of our own, so your dog(s) or cat(s) gets our undivided attention rather than fitting in around a job or a household routine. With two of us in the home, we can cover any schedule your animal needs, whether that's specific feeding times, medication a few times a day, or simply consistent company and playtime throughout the day. If one of us needs to step out, the other is always here, so your cat is never left alone for long. We're also equipped for whatever the situation calls for. We have crates and carriers on hand, and a large SUV if transport is ever needed, whether that's a vet visit, a pickup or drop-off, or anything else that comes up. Because we no longer have pets of our own, your cat isn't sharing our time, space, or attention with a resident animal. Our days are genuinely built around being available and present, which is exactly the kind of routine that comes from over 20 years of fostering. We own our home, which includes a large fenced yard and patio, giving pets plenty of safe space to run, play, and explore outside. We have no neighboring animals, so there are no surprise fence-line encounters or added stress from unfamiliar pets nearby. For dogs, we get outside for walks every day, rain or shine, so your pet stays on their normal exercise routine even while away from home. Indoors, pets have the run of a calm, comfortable home rather than being confined to one room. We tailor our approach to each animal's personality, whether that means a structured routine, extra quiet time, or simply consistent companionship throughout the day. For longer stays we can send pictures too. We have an established relationship with our own veterinarian and are comfortable handling special needs animals, including pets on medication schedules, seniors with mobility or dietary needs, or animals recovering from illness or injury. This comes directly from over 20 years of fostering through Furry Friends Rescue, where we regularly cared for animals with medical or behavioral needs that required extra attention and consistency. Whatever the service, boarding, drop-in visits, or house sitting, your pet gets a safe, secure environment, plenty of space, and two experienced caregivers who know how to watch for and respond to their individual needs.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was a kid and have over 10 years of hands-on experience. I’m a proud dog parent to two friendly pups who keep me active and always learning. I’ve helped neighbors, friends, and family with boarding, daycare, and walks for dogs of all sizes and personalities. Whether it’s a playful puppy or a senior dog needing a gentle pace, I make sure every pup feels safe, loved, and right at home. I treat every dog as part of the family and always go the extra mile to make their day fun and comfortable. Pet care is a big part of my everyday life since I have two dogs of my own. My schedule is flexible — I’m home most of the day, allowing me to give dogs plenty of attention, walks, and playtime. I love keeping a consistent routine so each pup feels comfortable and cared for like family. I make sure every dog feels safe and at ease in my home. I keep a clean, pet-friendly space with plenty of room for play and rest. I follow each owner’s care instructions carefully, provide regular updates, and never leave dogs unsupervised. Whether in my home or yours, I treat every pet with love, patience, and respect.

“Andrew is hands-down one of the BEST sitters/walkers I’ve ever trusted my fur babies with. He’s kind, incredibly easy to work with, and a great communicator — quick responses, smooth coordination, thoughtful questions, and the CUTEST photo updates (which made my entire day) of my dog living his best life. Andrew is the kind of person you just know will treat your pets the way you would — honestly, in my case, even better. He didn't just take Nyoom for a quick stroll around the block; he gave my pup so much affection/love, extra time to play, explore, and get ALL the zoomies out. And even though I only booked a dog walk, he still took the time to check in on my cat and send a little check-in update about her too, which meant so much to me and speaks for his incredible genuine character. Andrew treated my pets like his own. His level of service and dedication made me feel like this wasn't just a gig to him. He truly loves pets and building bonds with them and their humans. That kind of care is rare. I’ve already rebooked him and have been recommending him to all my pet parent friends and family. He’s the kind of sitter your pet will sprint to the door for, and I’d book with him again in a heartbeat. 11/10!”
“Charlene is absolutely wonderful with our dog! She’s our go-to for walks three days a week and has been incredibly reliable and attentive. She communicates clearly, always gives thoughtful updates, and I can tell she genuinely cares. I always feel confident that our dog is safe and well taken care of when he’s with her. Highly recommend!”
“Paige was very responsive & accommodating with our last minute request, and took great care of our dog Kiara during her walk. She was very gentle with Kiara, & it was evident that Kiara loved her walk. Will definitely be booking Paige again!”
“Kruti was amazing taking care of our three puppies - she walked them for a long time and they came back exhausted. She was also extremely attentive and caring, I do feel like she took care of them like they would be her own”
About: Hi!! My name is Aurora and I’m so excited to take care of your furr baby or babies! I have years of experience taking care of a wide range of pets from cats to big and small breed doggies. I love animals and believe they are a member of the family and should be treated as such! I have been relied on for walking my friends and neighbors doggies, cat sitting, and routine check ins to ensure that their fur babies are happy, healthy and, most of all, not lonely! As you can see from my pictures, my partner and I have three amazing fur babies, two of which are cats and one big doggy. Our two cats are Hela and Athena and our big goofy fluff ball of a doggie is named Loki. Because I raised my little family members from babies, I am more than comfortable taking care of puppies or kittens also! Pet care fits easily into my schedule — I work Monday-Friday 8-4pm—, leaving early mornings, evenings, and the rest of the weekends open for walks, drop-ins, and overnight care. In a client’s home, I follow their pet’s usual routine—feeding, walks, play, and any special instructions—so they feel secure and cared for in their familiar space.

Whether your pup needs a quick midday relief walk or a longer exercise session, I can easily adjust my availability to match your daily routine and preferences! Safety and peace of mind are my top priorities during every walk. I always ensure proper harness and leash attachment, keep a close watch on the surroundings, avoid unfamiliar dogs or high-traffic areas, and pay close attention to weather conditions and hydration. After each walk, I will clean off their paws, refresh their water bowl, and send you detailed updates with photos.

I am available Monday through Friday from 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM. This makes me a perfect fit for pet parents who work during the day and need a dependable, midday potty break and exercise session for their dogs. For walks and drop in visits at a client's home, my top priorities are safety, respect for your space, and your dog's happiness. I ensure leashes and harnesses are properly secured before we step outside, and I remain constantly aware of our surroundings during the walk. When returning home, I always check that water bowls are filled, paws are wiped if needed, and doors are securely locked behind me. I treat every client's home with the utmost respect and leave things exactly as I found them.
“Jessica is the type of person you want to care for your furry friends. She is nice, compassionate and attentive to my dogs needs. Jessica has experience working with senior dogs and is very patient with my 15 year old pup. I am so grateful Rover helped me find her. Book Jessica!”
“Alani is hands down one of the nicest people I have met in a while, and my two dogs fell completely in love with her! I broke my leg while my husband was out of town and was unable to walk my dogs and she literally came to my rescue. She is punctual, communicative, trustworthy, and really went the extra mile to help me. Thanks Alani! -Max, Butters, & Lana.”
About: I am home all day, I offer a safe, warm and loving environment, with lots of treats, pets and play! I have a dog who is an only child right now and loves to have sleep overs and playmates visit. I also have a soft spot for special needs dogs. I treat all fur babies in my care as if they are my own. I can do drop in visits, dog walking and or stay in your home with your pets while you are away. I have great references, please read. Thank you for reading and I look forward to meeting you and your fur babies. I have my own 40 pound dog who is now 2 years old. So we keep a general routine around taking walks and potty breaks, exercise, play and nap times. I am home all day so your dog will get plenty of attention while you are away. I have a medium sized dog and we go out often for bathroom and exercise and fun. If I am in your home I follow your instructions and keep to your pets routine.
About: I have taken care of many of my friends dogs while they are on vacation. The dogs were happy staying and got along well with me and my dog. I work from home with a very flexible schedule. So I have plenty of time to take care of dogs. Let me know what time works! I have experience taking care of my family dog, and many friends dog. I’m very familiar with keeping them safe and happy. Also, I can spot it if there are anything going wrong.
About: I have a dog who is my whole entire world. I have always loved and cared for dogs and cats. Have done pet sitting for friends and family for the past 5 years I am currently in college and taking hybrid classes so I free 80% of the week. I am more than willing to discuss schedules and times. I like in an apartment with a small back porch but also a lot of grass and space around my apartment complex. I have a small maltipoo to keep your babies company. I can easily crate your baby if needed.
About: Hi, I’m Simonette. I have owned all sorts of pets (cockatoos, budgies, fish, bunnies) and have always loved the company of cats and dogs. Since I was little I have really enjoyed caring for pets and looking after our friends and family's pets when they go on holiday. I used to work remotely in the Netherlands and also wanted to spend time with animals, so I started pet sitting. I have now moved to California and am missing the pets that I often looked after, so I am looking very forward to pet sitting again. Ensuring that your pet gets enough cuddles and love is my priority. Their food and water will, of course, be refreshed and walks done (if needed). If they need any special attention, please let me know. I'm happy to answer any questions you might have, so feel free to contact me I have recently moved from the Netherlands to California and am busy job hunting, so I have plenty of time to give lots of love and attention to pets. I absolutely love being around all sorts of animals, and I live close to Lake Elizabeth so I will spend lots of time outdoors with dogs if they enjoy that. I am trustworthy and reliable so will make sure to care for your pets the way I would want someone to care for mine. I will ensure to stick to your instructions on their feeding and walking routine as well as give them lots of love and attention. I'll give you daily updates and let you know immediately if any issues come up.
About: We have shared our home with dogs and cats for over 30 years. For more than two decades, we've served as a foster home for Furry Friends Rescue, caring for dogs and cats of every age, breed, temperament, and medical need while they waited for their forever homes. That kind of fostering means we've handled it all: bottle-feeding newborn kittens, house-training anxious rescue puppies, managing senior pets with arthritis or special diets, and giving extra patience to animals recovering from neglect or trauma. We know how to read an animal's body language, spot early signs something's wrong, and adjust our approach to fit each pet's personality rather than expecting them to adjust to us. We no longer have pets of our own, which means your pet gets our full attention, energy, and home, without competing with a resident dog or cat for space or affection. Our house is calm, comfortable, and set up for animals to feel safe. We do still have foster cats that are friendly with other animals. Whether your pet needs a quiet, structured routine, extra TLC, or just an experienced hand who won't be fazed by anything, we've likely already seen it and handled it with care. Pet care isn't squeezed into our schedule, it is our schedule. Both of us are home full-time, with no kids and no pets of our own, so your dog(s) or cat(s) gets our undivided attention rather than fitting in around a job or a household routine. With two of us in the home, we can cover any schedule your animal needs, whether that's specific feeding times, medication a few times a day, or simply consistent company and playtime throughout the day. If one of us needs to step out, the other is always here, so your cat is never left alone for long. We're also equipped for whatever the situation calls for. We have crates and carriers on hand, and a large SUV if transport is ever needed, whether that's a vet visit, a pickup or drop-off, or anything else that comes up. Because we no longer have pets of our own, your cat isn't sharing our time, space, or attention with a resident animal. Our days are genuinely built around being available and present, which is exactly the kind of routine that comes from over 20 years of fostering. We own our home, which includes a large fenced yard and patio, giving pets plenty of safe space to run, play, and explore outside. We have no neighboring animals, so there are no surprise fence-line encounters or added stress from unfamiliar pets nearby. For dogs, we get outside for walks every day, rain or shine, so your pet stays on their normal exercise routine even while away from home. Indoors, pets have the run of a calm, comfortable home rather than being confined to one room. We tailor our approach to each animal's personality, whether that means a structured routine, extra quiet time, or simply consistent companionship throughout the day. For longer stays we can send pictures too. We have an established relationship with our own veterinarian and are comfortable handling special needs animals, including pets on medication schedules, seniors with mobility or dietary needs, or animals recovering from illness or injury. This comes directly from over 20 years of fostering through Furry Friends Rescue, where we regularly cared for animals with medical or behavioral needs that required extra attention and consistency. Whatever the service, boarding, drop-in visits, or house sitting, your pet gets a safe, secure environment, plenty of space, and two experienced caregivers who know how to watch for and respond to their individual needs.

“Nathasa was great! First time booking her for our little guy. She picked up and dropped off. Kept us up to date as well. Our little guy sure did enjoy Nathasa’s company. Definitely will rebook for future needs. Thank you!”
“Very happy repeat customer! You know they’re good when your dog jumps up and down in excitement as soon as you bring the dog bed to the car and jumps right in 😅!”
“I highly recommend Lily to anyone looking for a sitter. She is very kind and friendly with dogs. Our dog is anxious in new places. Lily clearly understood her nature and took excellent care of her. This is the second time leaving our dog with her and our dog loves Lily. She sends daily updates with pictures which helped us be at ease and enjoy our vacation. Lily is the best and is one of my go to dog sitters.”
“We had such a great experience with Cecilia and Ethan! I was honestly a little nervous at first since I had never used Rover before or had strangers care for our dogs, especially since one of our dogs requires daily medication. We decided to do an initial meet-and-greet beforehand so we could get to know Cecilia and Ethan and make sure they were the right fit, and I’m so glad we did! I shared a detailed care guide with them, and they followed everything to a tee. They were incredibly responsible, attentive, and responsive throughout our entire trip. They also went above and beyond by taking our dogs out to the lake and even to Monterey! We received lots of photos and videos every day, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Our dogs basically had a little vacation of their own! 🥹 It’s very clear that Cecilia and Ethan genuinely care about dogs and put a lot of thought into making sure they were happy, comfortable, and well cared for. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and will absolutely be going with Cecilia and Ethan again the next time we need someone to care for our dogs. Highly recommend them! 🐶♥️”
“Time and tie again Phina has proven to be a reliable and trustworthy dog boarder, I never feel worried about leaving my precious fur baby in her capable hands. His behavior even seems to improve with each visit. We look forward to his next stay with Phina.”
“Guava really enjoyed her stay with Judy and we even got some tips on training her. I have already booked another stay with Judy. We got plenty of pics and videos during the stay and I am very happy with how the reservation turned out.”
“I had the pleasure of having Siqin take care of my dog, Jack, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. From the start, she was incredibly responsive and kept me updated with plenty of pictures and videos, so I always knew Jack was in good hands. It was clear that Jack was comfortable and happy, and I loved seeing how well he got along with her. Siqin also made sure to take Jack on regular walks, which he absolutely loved. It was such a relief knowing that Jack was getting the care and attention he needed while I was away. I can't recommend her enough—she’s professional, caring, and truly passionate about pets. If you're looking for a dog sitter, Siqin is the one!”
“Yenju is such a terrific doggy care taker! She was so kind and patient with our dog Kip. Her communication was consistent, timely, and very honest. Furthermore- she went out of her way to listen to me explain what Kip needed to feel safe and happy while we were traveling, and she gave him healthy snacks like boiled eggs when he wouldn't eat his food! She was also punctual and very flexible when my family was coordinating pick up times. I cannot say enough nice things about Yenju and her family caring for Kip- I will definitely be booking again!! Thank you Yenju!!”
“I am happy we found Xiaokun. Our foster fail puppy who is a 6 month German Shepherd went to him for multiple doggy day care days and one boarding visit. She came back each time happy and tired. I really appreciated how Xiaokun followed our instructions and had great communication, especially when we boarded our pup shortly after her spay surgery. Also loved that on the doggy day care days he took our pup on awesome hikes/walks and sent pics for our peace of mind. Xiaokun has great calm energy and that definitely translated to making my pups stay a great one. Definitely recommend!”
“Cookie was takin in with open arms and cared for as if she was theirs. Hong provided daily updates and photos, cookie seemed very happy and way too comfortable (lol). Thats the doodle in her! Thank you again watching our pup!”
“We boarded our German shepherd (Bentley) with Ken for nearly 2 weeks while we were out of the country. We were extremely happy with the way Ken took care of our Bentley. Ken was very professional and extremely caring towards Bentley. He was flexible with the drop-off/pick-up timings. He kept us up to date with pictures and videos almost every day :) I even had to suggest that he didn't need to send pictures & videos that often :) Bentley has made friends with Neo, which is wonderful for us coz Bentley wouldn't easily mingle with other pets. Bentley thoroughly enjoyed his stay at Ken's place! We'll definitely book with Ken in the future! :)”
“Shruti and her husband were great sitters for my dog. Timely communication, very accommodating on some last minute changes and overall great experience. Koko seemed to have enjoyed his stay. The house has a massive backyard and makes for a great space for dogs big and small to play. They were detailed in their intake of information about the dog. Overall recommend and will use their boarding again.”
“Nina and Tony were absolutely incredible with our dog, Rain. From the moment we left for our trip, they made us feel completely at ease. They went above and beyond in every way possible, especially with their communication. We received frequent updates, thoughtful messages, and so many pictures and videos that we never had to wonder how Rain was doing. Finding someone you trust with your dog is difficult, but Nina and Tony exceeded every expectation we had. We came home to a happy pup! We would trust Nina and Tony with Rain again without a second thought. They are simply the best. Thank you soooooooooo much!”
About: I have been taking care of pets basically all my life, at my grandma house we use to have a lot of animals, and she taught me the love that they need and now I want to keep sharing that love. I’m a staying at home mom for now so I have most of the time free to play with animals, give them love and take care of them. At my house we have plenty of space where they can stay and play and where I’m able to take care of them all the time
“Pallavi and Rachit were incredibly caring in looking after Zoey. They went above and beyond in taking care of her. If you're looking for someone who will truly care for your pet, going beyond just the basic needs, they are absolutely wonderful. Pallavi paid close attention to even the smallest details about my poodle. She made sure to understand Zoey’s schedule, routine, and how comfortable she is around other dogs and people. Their dog, Luna, is also very friendly and sweet. Pallavi frequently sent me updates and photos, which gave me a lot of reassurance. They spent genuine quality time with Zoey, really getting to know her. Even when Zoey had an injury, they cared for her so well and kept me updated throughout. Pallavi truly went the extra mile- gradually introducing Zoey to Luna, asking before giving her snacks, setting up a comfortable space for her in their home, and giving her so much love and attention. I couldn't recommend them enough!”
“Chen took excellent care of our lab, took her on regular walks and had a fun time with her dog eleven. She communicates very well and kept us updated on how our dog was dog via text and pictures.”
“Kristy was prompt, kind and asked relevant questions at the meet and greet with our 6 year old shepherd/collie mix. She hosted our dog for the weekend and shared photos and videos of their time together. The weekend seems to have gone well. Kristy was also quick to respond through the app over the weekend and was flexible with drop off/pick up times. We would definitely have Kristy dog sit Moka again.”
“Stephen watched my dog Zuko for the second time and my other dog nori for the first! He updated me with photos and we had a great meet and greet. He’s definitely my go to dog sitter when I know I’m going to be out of town.”
“We cannot thank Louis & Susan enough for taking such wonderful care of our Hazel! We had a busy family-packed holiday weekend with unexpected changes and they treated us with kindness, were accommodating with the changing plans, and extremely communicative. Throughout the stay, it was clear that they are knowledgeable, experienced, and truly passionate about animals. Our furbaby was happy, relaxed, and well cared for the entire time. We would recommend Louis & Susan in a heartbeat and look forward to booking with them again in the future!”
