“Gianina & her family were so great to my pup. we recently moved and I was really nervous leaving him while I left town. They sent photos daily which eased my discomfort but also helped me see how well Sutton settled in to their home and it brought me a lot of ease to see how comfortable he was so quickly. I will definitely book with her again in the future.”
“Mary took great care of our cats for a month, and it was a fantastic experience. She once again was professional, reliable, and our cats warmed up to her and her cats quickly. I received regular updates with photos which was very reassuring. Our cats were happy and well-cared-for when we returned. I highly recommend Mary for anyone needing a trustworthy and caring cat sitter. Thank you again, Mary!”
“Harper took absolutely the best care of our dog, Milo. She kept us updated about Milo's daily schedule and activities, making sure that he is getting enough exercises throughout the day, and treated him like her own pet during the 4-day boarding. I would recommend Harper to anyone who is looking for a loving sitter who can take great care of their fur baby!”
“There is no one I would trust more with my dogs than Olivia M. I have two very senior dogs and need to leave the area for extended periods of time. I know that Olivia will keep them safe and lived while I’m away, and will give administrator the medication that they require. I usually reserve her services months before my trips to ensure that she is available. Thank you Olivia!!”
“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”
“Lea is so awesome. She takes great care of my dog. My dog Yuki looked happy when she stayed with Lea. Lea also sends many updates throughout the day proactively. This is my first time using Rover, I believe Lea gave me a great experience. I would definitely rebook her in the future if her schedule allows.”
“Caddie was amazing! This is my first boarding on rover and im so happy that I was able to do it with Caddie. She is straight forward and was able to send updates. I also appreciate the meet and greet first before confirming the booking. I appreciate that she has a lot of space for my dog to roam around. Thank you Caddie :)”
“Jenna and Kristen are wonderful dog sitters! I was able to leave my 3 year old miniature dachshund (she has a bit of separation anxiety and is medicated) with them somewhat last minute and they were super accommodating. My dog loved her time there! When my dog ran out of dog food, they let me know right away and asked if it was okay to feed her their dog food. I received pictures, updates, and at pick up my dog was limping a little bit, and Jenna and Kristen checked in with me immediately stating no incidents occurred but likely she was just exhausted and due to her small size and lack of exercise, this was common. Within a few days she was just fine. Already have my next stay booked! Thank you so much!”
“Our dogs had a great time with Izzy and his family. This was our second booking and I wouldn’t hesitate to book again! Our dogs were so happy during and after their stay. Izzy sent updates and pictures which was appreciated while I was out of town for work. Thanks again Izzy!!”
“This was my first time using Rover and Yan made my experience very easy and enjoyable. She was very flexible with her time and her place offered my pup plenty of space to run, socialize, and be safe. Yan also provided periodic updates which was great for peace of mind. I will be using Yan again in the future!”
“Second time staying with Huong, she is definitely the sitter to go to! Very caring of dogs, saw the shaved part on my dog’s leg and ask for more caring instructions, will definitely go back to her again!”
“Melody did a fantastic job with my pup. She kept me updated daily with the routine and pictures. She was kind, patient, and made Ruby feel right at home. Would 10/10 recommend and will definitely rebook with Melody and her mother.”
“Lula's second stay with Angélica was just as good as her first. She felt right at home and we received plenty of updates and photos of her having a great time. Thank you again, Angélica!”
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.
“Pyai took such good care of Rocco and Shota while we were away at Coachella! He consistently sent us updates with pics and vids. He kept them active and even took them out for hikes, and they seemed to really enjoy their time with him and his girlfriend’s dog. We would definitely recommend Pyai to anyone looking for a caring and responsible dog sitter.”
“Natalia is the best with my puppies. She sent pics everyday and spoiled them so much. I extended the stay of my pups and she did above and beyond to accommodate my request. We were so lucky to find her and my pups love her.”

She goes above and beyond. It is really evident how much she loves and cares about animals. We cannot speak highly enough of her! Highly professional, responsible, and dependable!!! She also takes the best cat photos!”
“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.”
“Rawnna is awesome! She took care of our three cats for two weeks, and they seem so happy and well-taken care of! She was totally understanding of my anxiety about having a new person in my house, and sent the best photos of them playing every day. She did a great job and I would definitely hire her again.”

“This was my first time with Shiji and he was absolutely amazing, following each and every instruction and checking in with me when my cats refused to eat, went above and beyond to take care of other things kike checking litter, changing water and even playing! I trust them with my cats and my cars trust them as well”
“Nilab was an amazing cat sitter for my two cats, Caper and Tiggy! She communicated clearly about her visit schedule and followed up each time with plenty of pictures, which was really reassuring. Both of my cats loved having her around, and even my shy cat, Caper, felt comfortable with her, which is a rare thing! Nilab gave them lots of attention, and I could tell they were happy and well taken care of. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter.”
“I just wanted to say a heartfelt thank you to Sharon for taking such amazing care of Boba and Kimba while I was away. I can tell that my kitties loved her the moment she came over for a meet and greet. Usually they are shy with strangers but with Sharon, they opened up immediately and came over for pets and treats. From the updates and adorable photos to the extra attention she gave them, I could tell they were in the best hands. Sharon went above and beyond to make sure they were comfortable, happy, and well cared for. I came home to relaxed and content cats, which is the best feeling any cat parent could ask for. I truly appreciate her kindness, professionalism, and genuine love for animals. Additionally she took great care of my fish and plants. I wouldn’t hesitate to ask Sharon to look after them again!”
“Jerry was amazing with my feline beasts. She has excellent communication, provided me with videos and pics with each visit along with a brief summary of the visit. I am so happy to have found someone who cares for my felines as if they were her own. My cats required medicine and are not the cuddly pair. But Jerri was able to build a connection. I'm so appreciative of how well she took care of my animals and hm.”
“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!”
“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: 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.

Whether your pet is playful, shy, or needs extra attention, I’m patient and attentive. I treat every pet like my own and make sure they feel comfortable while you’re away. What you can expect: • Regular photo & video updates • Safe, clean home environment • Flexible schedule & quick responses • Experience with puppies, cats, and multiple pets I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I take that seriously. Looking forward to meeting you and your furry family! I feed my animals twice a day and I walk the dogs twice a day morning and evening. Throughout the day dogs engage in playful fetch and games. They go out in the yard and enjoy the sun and run around. I have decent size house with two yards so plenty of space to run around. I have an extra room if animals need to be seperated.
“Harper was an incredible find for us, and we couldn't be more grateful! This was our first time using the Rover app, and we were in a bit of a bind. A family member who usually puppy-sits our young Chihuahua had to cancel last minute, leaving us scrambling for a solution. Enter Harper. After finding the app and seeing her glowing reviews, we booked her on ultra-short notice. The drop-off was pretty hectic—our little pup was already stressed out from the sudden change, and poor Harper had to step in under less-than-ideal circumstances. But she handled it like a pro! When we picked him up, he was completely calm and relaxed—a huge testament to Harper’s care and patience. She had taken him on a walk to the park and made sure he felt safe and happy. We’re beyond impressed with her professionalism and warmth. Harper has our highest recommendation, and we’ll definitely be turning to her again in the future!”
“Gabru had a very nice day with Reyna. She was very responsive to all our requests and sent regular updates. She has a nice house and Gabru enjoyed her backyard. I will definitely have Gabru visit Reyna again soon”
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.

“There is no one I would trust more with my dogs than Olivia M. I have two very senior dogs and need to leave the area for extended periods of time. I know that Olivia will keep them safe and lived while I’m away, and will give administrator the medication that they require. I usually reserve her services months before my trips to ensure that she is available. Thank you Olivia!!”
“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’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.
“Natalia is the best with my puppies. She sent pics everyday and spoiled them so much. I extended the stay of my pups and she did above and beyond to accommodate my request. We were so lucky to find her and my pups love her.”
“Ghost always had a great time when she’s with Judi and her family, and I love knowing she’s in great hands surrounded by love while my husband and I are away. Thank you Judi for another great stay!”
“Robert was EXCELLENT! He sent pictures, videos, and texts of my dogs several times a day. He returned Marcus and Garvey back safe and happy. I would use him anytime. AWESOMENESS!”
“I can’t say enough good things about this sitter. She kept me updated throughout the stay, sent plenty of photos, and made sure my dog felt comfortable and loved. It’s clear she genuinely cares about the pets she watches. I felt totally confident leaving my dog with her, and I’ll be booking her again without hesitation. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and attentive.”
“Kristal and Quinn were awesome with Maya and Evie. They continuously sent me updates and pics of the dogs and were always responsive when I had questions. I’d definitely book with them again.”
“Jocelyn was great with my dog. She knew we were nervous leaving him for the first time and gave us regular updates. She even gave him a mini photoshoot with better pictures I would've taken. He looked so comfortable when I picked him up as if he had known Jocelyn forever. Thank you Jocelyn!”
“Ashu was amazing and took great care of my cat. They sent me daily updates and made sure my cat felt comfortable in their home. I hope to rebook with them in the future :)”
“I have nothing but good things to say about our experience with Sameer. Our German Shepherd Molly clearly had a wonderful time with Sameer and his family. Upon picking her up she went to him for affection with us standing right there and that really says it all. This was our first experience using Sameer and will definitely not be our last.”
“Dean took great care of Rocco while we were away for a week. Rocco has anxiety about being left and does not do well in boarding facilities. Dean's constant presence and spoiling didn't give Rocco a chance to experience anxiety. And Dean handled Rocco's other anxieties like a true pro. We appreciated Dean's daily updates and photos, they let us know that Rocco was in good hands and enjoying himself. We will definitely have Rocco stay with Dean for our future boarding needs.”
“Natasha was great. Mowgli was well cared for and happy when we picked him up. They sent me pictures everyday and made sure to keep him on his normal routine. Would definitely book with Natasha again!”
“My GSD had a great time with Naveen. Naveen sent me videos and photos during my dog’s stay. He was a great communicator and gave me regular updates. I definitely recommend!”
“Darshana took care of our pet for 2 weeks when we were away. She was prompt in sending us updates and vidoes which kept us at ease while away. Our pet loves her and she had a great time with Darshana.”
