“You won’t find better dog care than Katie and Jason! Attentive, caring and loving- they went above and beyond with walks, playtime and snuggles. Benji had a wonderful time staycationing with them! Super great communication before and during stay, too! Our pooches will be back. Can’t recommend more highly. 🩷”
“Ivan was the best choice to watch Bella! He was quick to respond to the original request and was flexible in scheduling a time for the meet and greet. He provided pictures, videos, and updates multiple times a day! He even taught Bella a new trick! I would highly recommend Ivan!”
“My dogs stayed with Anna for three weeks while I recover from surgery. She was so patient with my two dogs and gave them lots of affection and loving care. Not only she sent me lots photos and texts communication, she let me visit them at her home. I’m so grateful for Anna, so I can heal properly and peacefully during these three weeks.”

“Michael was a great sitter. He provided daily updates with pictures and videos. He accommodated Perseus’s puppy energy and also did some light training with him. He also gave tips on his behavior going forward. Highly recommended!”
“Mario was AWESOME! We left our senior rescue with him for 10 days and now we feel like our dog has a home away from home. He regularly walks the dogs near a beautiful duck pond in his back yard. His communication is perfect — and we really appreciated that he sent regular updates / photos. Highly recommend—- we will certainly have him care for our pup again in the future!!!”
“Winnie was amazing taking care of our mini Bernedoodle for about a week in her home. Our dog can be a picky eater, especially when away from home, but Winnie made sure she ate and was great at communicating with us. We've already booked future stays. Thanks, Winnie!”
“I’m a new user to Rover and these two have been outstanding for my first experience. They kept me updated with photos and videos on how my dog (Charlie) was doing and how much fun he was having interacting with their dogs. 10/10 would highly recommend again.”
“Sandra & Jose are everything you could want in the people who you trust to watch your pet. I could tell from the photos that my pup felt safe, happy, and truly at home with this lovely couple. It kinda felt like he belongs with them, so I was happy to extend his stay. Communication was on point, lots of cute pupdates, and my dog came home as one should after a lovely vacation— relaxed and happy. Thank you both for your time & dedication. It means the world to my little family.”
“Francesca kept incredible care of my French Bulldog for 4 days. I had flight complications and she was incredibly flexible putting me at ease. She provided great updates. Highly recommend.”
“Leeeun is incredibly sweet, loving and a wonderful communicator. I don’t have to worry about anything leaving my baby with her. She takes great care of him. I highly recommend her.”
“Meghana was great! Shared updates with us everyday and sent pictures without us needing to ask. Our anxious/reactive dog seemed pretty comfortable with her. Very responsive. Would definitely have our dog stay with her again :)”
“Hi! I would recommend Kitty to watch your pet! She is very sweet and kind! She has patience and allows your pet to explore his surroundings to become comfortable with his new routine! She asks you what your pet's needs are and the routine you want her to follow! She provided me with timely photo updates and feedback on how my pet was behaving and acting! There is a backyard for your dog to play and the house is roomy and no children!”
“Christine was fantastic with “Bo.” She kept us updated throughout the evening with pictures and stories while we were gone. Bo was very comfortable with Christine. She was genuinely sweet with him and made him feel comfortable right away. We highly recommend Christine to anyone who needs a caring person to take care of their four legged family members.”
“I am very grateful to Kyaw for the excellent care provided to our Walter. Kyaw was incredibly responsive, kind, and thoughtful throughout the entire stay. I especially appreciated the regular updates and photos, which gave me great peace of mind while we were away. It was clear our pet was well cared for and in good hands. Thank you again for your professionalism and compassion!”
About: I adopted my first rescue puppy over 19 years ago. Our most recent adoption turned out to be quite the handful. She's extremely reactive and is very anxious around strangers. I've learned so much from caring for her that I know I can care for any dog no matter their personality. I work from home so I'm available everyday and on the weekends too. I'm also self-employed so I set my own schedule and can take walk breaks whenever I like. Our house has a fully fenced in backyard. We also have an extra room that's separate from the rest of the house if your dog needs their own space.
“Our dog Maisy was so well cared for at Diana's and Mike's house! Diana has a lot of knowledge about all kinds of dogs which is super helpful. She helped Maisy adjust and sent me regular updates. Definitely recommend!”
“Doug was great with my terrier. Gave him lots of exercise, was very communicative, sent beautiful photos! I was able to enjoy my time away knowing Parker was in good hands! Thank you Doug!”

“Maria was very patient and calm with our nervous kitty. She provided great details on her time with Margot. We have Maria scheduled for a vacation coming up and I am very comfortable that she will take good care of Margot.”
“This was our 1st time using Tricia with our two kitties and hopefully won’t be the last. She was such a pleasure to work with. Sent pics, updates and had great communication throughout. Would not hesitate to use again for our two boys.”
“Stephanie took great care of our cat while we were gone. She had great attention to detail and followed all the requests we made. She provided our cat with the much needed TLC. Our kitty loved her! We'd gladly hire Stephanie again :)”
“Katie is so responsive and caring — she’s watched our kitties several times and I know they’re in good hands. She’s extremely responsive to email and text — very reliable and trustworthy!”
“We had a wonderful experience with Blessy and are more than happy to recommend her! She is incredibly knowledgeable about all things cat-related, and we felt completely at ease leaving our cats, Alex and Lulu, in her care. Blessy is communicative, reliable, and kept us updated with photos and videos throughout our trip, which gave us great peace of mind. She was also very flexible and accommodating, especially when our plans changed and we needed to add extra visits and adjust the dates and times. Most importantly, she took excellent care of our kitties, and it was clear they were happy and well looked after. She even taught one of cats to spin around for his treat!”
“Vicki was amazing with Koda and made the process really easy for us! She’s very experienced with handling multiple cats and it shows. He came back very happy, would definitely trust her again! Thank you :)”
“Zahudy was great. She was very attentive our dog, Oliver, and communicated in detail with us every step of the way. Oliver behaved as if we never left home and I think Zahudy played a major role in him doing so well.”
“Denise is fantastic! We have relied on Denise many times now and she consistently does a great job. She’s smart, great with and knowledgeable about pets, thinks outside the box, and reliable because of those reasons and more. I recently took a trip where I had little to no phone coverage, and I knew I could count on her to take care of any issues that arose if she was not able to reach me. I look forward to relying on Denise again.”
“Jasmeen is an amazing cat sitter! She’s lovely and our cats warmed up to her instantly. She made sure to play with both of our cats (one is less enthusiastic about playing) and even taught them a few tricks. She was very communicative with daily updates, and we felt completely at ease while we were away.”
“I don’t think our cats have ever been so well looked after! Natalie was professional and caring - from detailed note taking and daily reports, to playing them calming music during a storm, bringing extra litter to top up, offering homemade purée, photos, videos, everything. Cant recommend Natalie enough. 10/10.”
“Camille was absolutely wonderful! Her thoughtfulness and care while watching my sweet kitty Oliver was more than I could have asked for. She was attentive, asked all the right questions and took a ton of photos to share with me while I was away. I would 1000% book with her again. I felt really safe and secure having my fur baby in her hands. :) Thanks Camille! Couldn't have asked for better!”
About: I’m a loving cat mom of 5+ years with a lifetime of experience caring for cats of all ages. I’m competent in simple dog training and am open to dog-sitting/walking, but cats are by far my specialty. I have proven experience building trust and bonding quickly with new cats, even those with behavioral issues or shy demeanors. I’m a teacher looking for extra summer work, so I’ll have plenty of time to care for your furry friends June-August! I can make up to 5 visits on weekends and 3 visits on select weekdays. I will be nannying part time and will be available before 2pm and after 6pm on Mondays, Thursdays and Fridays. Please message me with any questions! I am soft, gentle and empathetic with all new pets I meet, especially when I’m entering their safe space! My cat was a mean, shy little boy when I adopted him at 7 months; but now at 5 years he’s happy and comfy as can be. I hope to provide this same experience for your pets, whether it be a short drop in or an overnight visit.

“Anna was amazing! Her communication was very quick and clear. She sent me tons of pictures throughout the day and made me feel very comfortable. Leaving my two-year-old dog with her for the day. She was super flexible and pick up and drop off time and Rilee just put all of my pet sitting anxiety at ease. I will definitely be using her again!”
“Winnie and Boba are THE BEST!!! 🏆 Winnie accommodated a last-minute request over Thanksgiving weekend so my husband and I could take a day trip. She even offered a meet-and-greet video call beforehand, which really put my mind at ease since it was our second time using Rover for dog sitting. 🙏 Throughout our communications, Winnie was friendly, responsive, and incredibly helpful. My doggo had a blast playing with Boba, and she sent us plenty of photos and videos showing how much fun they were having together. 🦮🐕🦺 When we picked him up, my dog was clearly sad to leave - always a good sign! 🥹🥲😭🫶 We're already looking forward to our next booking. Highly recommend Winnie and Boba, especially if you have a smaller breed that likes to run and play. ✨”
“Stephanie took care of our dog for the day while we were out of town. She was very easy to work with and very responsive. She sent updates throughout the day along with photos. I felt confident that our dog was receiving care, attention, and having fun:) We look forward to working with Stephanie again!”
About: I’ve taken care of domestic animals since I was very young. Animals have always been part of my life, and I truly enjoy caring for them, pets are part of our daily routine. My daily routine already includes caring for dogs. I run a small mobile dog grooming business, so I am used to being around pets every day. I’m also used to taking care of animals since I was young, so feeding, walking, playing, and giving attention to pets fits very naturally into my routine. I live in an apartment, but my complex has a dog park and very dog-friendly spaces. Pets will always receive attention, supervision, and a calm environment. I make sure they are safe, comfortable, and follow the routine provided by the owner, including feeding, walks, playtime, and rest.

About: Having raised my own puppy and dogsat for friends with anxious pups, I'm well versed in how to provide for a pup's full time needs. I can also provide puppy training in house manners (for example: waiting patiently to be fed, waiting at doors, simple commands). My care and attention to my own puppy, Chef, is full time and I am super excited to share that with your pup. We can go on excursions or hang around the house or play fetch at the dogpark. Whatever your pup is up for. I have a fenced yard and a friendly pup for your pup(s) to play with! And if your pup doesn't want company for whatever reason, I have gates and crates to make sure they are safe and happy in their own space. Feel free to request photos/videos and check in anytime for updates.
“Thank you Shirley for a great first daycare experience for both us and our pup. From keeping us informed at all times (with pics) to giving our puppy a wonderful environment within which to play and rest, everything was top notch. Shirley even went a step beyond and gave us good advice about our pup’s ear care. Thank you!”
About: I have had dogs and cats under my care my whole life. One cat had ceribal hypoplasia and required assistance with all aspects of life bathroom, walking, getting into bed for naps and eating. My 2 cats that I have now are mine and each others emotional support. They are both harness and leash trained and stroller trained. I am a rare Male Cat Lady :) I am attending college after a 17 year hiatus and most of my classes are on-line. I have my own small business in computer repair and IT. I make my own schedule and can fit pet care into that purrr-fectly Every pet deserves care that’s tailored to their unique personality, routine, and comfort level. Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or yours, my priority is to keep their daily routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. I carefully follow all instructions—from feeding schedules and walks to medications, playtime, grooming, and bedtime routines—because I know the little details matter. I’ll always respect your home, keep food and water fresh, clean litter boxes and outdoor areas promptly, and make sure your pet’s environment stays clean, safe, and comfortable. I believe every animal communicates differently. Some pets want endless cuddles and playtime, while others simply appreciate a calm, reassuring presence and their personal space. I’m happy to meet them where they are, building trust at their pace and giving them the attention they need to feel secure. You’ll also receive regular photo and video updates so you can see how your furry family member is doing while you’re away. My goal is for you to enjoy your time away with complete peace of mind, knowing your pet is being cared for with the same love, patience, and attention I’d give my own.
“Kelly was great with our 2 little dogs. We were in town attending a family function and we were able to book with her from 4:30pm to 10:45pm on a Sunday. She provided us with picture updates and was really communicative which made us, worried dog parents, feel better. We highly recommend her and will use her services again next time we’re in this area.”
About: I am a physically active recent retiree and capable dog lover who recently lost my beloved Wheaten Terrier after 11 great years with him, so I'm well able to care for your very active or senior dog that might have special dietary or physical needs. I'm recently retired and home every day, so I have lots of time to care for your pet. Drop-off and pick-up very flexible every day and evening. Although we have a securely fenced and paved back yard, it contains a swimming pool, so we kept our own pet indoors or on our fenced in, covered deck/patio which is also secure. We have a large dog crate which our dog slept in every night, but this is flexible depending on your own dog's sleeping preferences. I do not let pets sleep on my bed. We live on a very quiet street with no 'through' traffic, so it's easy to walk your dog regularly without risking encounters with other pets. Our own dog was not comfortable around other dogs and this was easy for us to manage.
About: I grew up with dogs and cats my entire life, I am an animal person to the core. I have free time and would love to take care of your dog and provide my dog with a friend, win-win! I believe in sending LOTS of photos and updates, and making sure your animal baby is safe and happy while you are away! Your animal baby will be cared for as if they are my own. My fiancé and I both work from hom and our dog is 4 years old and super friendly. If your dog wants a friend to walk with or have a play date with or just stay the night, let me know :)! I'm taking time off from work and I'm free all the time. As for a routine, I take my dog for atleast 3 walks a day. We also go on trails hikes or to the beach. I treat any pet like it's my own. Having another dog around would be great! I communicate with my customers for any specifics or special requests within reason.
“Diana was so welcoming and accommodating to Teddy. They have a lovely house with a big back yard that he loved. She was also flexible with seeing whether Teddy would get along with other dogs she was boarding. The pictures she sent me that day made me feel like Teddy was in such good hands. He loved it there.”
About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was 13 years old, and have had cats and dogs for my entire adult life. I have helped friends and family take care of their pets for just as long. I love animals, and their well-being is my utmost priority. I have extensive experience and knowledge on what pets need from experience with my own pets and taking care of pets for others. When I am traveling or need to be away from home for any reason, my main concern is always whether my cats and dogs are happy and getting everything they need. My mission is to do everything I can to give you the worry-free experience I would want myself. I am self-employed, so my schedule is flexible around what you and your pet(s) need. I am available at most times of the day and on weekends/holidays. I understand that every pet’s need can differ based on the situation. I will care for your pet according to his/her individual need.
“Katie and Jason welcomed our sweet pittie Archie for daycare so we could give Archie the chance to get to know them some before they watch him overnight later this month. Archie came home relaxed and happy! We also received so many beautiful pictures and a video showing his time with Jason and Katie, which calmed this nervous mom’s anxiety about leaving Archie with anyone else. We’re so happy and relieved we found Katie and Jason, they are legitimate dog people! ♥️”

“Highly recommend! Michael, his wife, and their pup Kirby are warm and welcoming. Little Bear struggles with separation anxiety and fortunately, he adjusted quickly to their home. Likely because of the good vibes, chill environment, sweet pet parents and a level of understanding and flexibility that is much appreciated. Huge yard and conveniently located. Great sitter!!”
About: My home is your pet’s home 🫶🏻 Safe and trusted environment 💛 I have been caring for dogs and cats of all sizes and temperaments since I was 10 years old. Neighbors, friends, and family have always relied on me to check in, feed, and play with their pets. As a dedicated dog and cat owner myself, I understand that your pet is family. I am a very active person who loves long walks, so I can ensure your dog gets plenty of exercise. I’m also highly organized and comfortable following specific feeding or medication schedules to keep your pup's routine consistent. I currently work in healthcare administration during the week, which means my weekends are entirely dedicated to pet care! I am available for full-time boarding and house sitting from Friday evening through Sunday night. Because I am a student and work a consistent schedule, I am very reliable and punctual with my check-ins and walk times. Your pup will have my full attention during their stay! I live in a pet-friendly environment in San Mateo where your dog's safety is my top priority. I have a friendly dog of my own who loves making new friends, making my home a great 'social' spot for your pup. I am very comfortable with 'Meet & Greets' to ensure everyone gets along. I maintain a clean, safe space and am happy to accommodate crate training or any specific home boundaries you have in place.
“Rosie was wonderful with Stella and listened to all our instructions about food, commands, and little quirks. Our fur baby was so excited to see us after and is now happily resting at home. I think she had a great time with her stay!”

“All I can say is that when you go on vacation and your a pet parent, the last thing you want is to worry about the well being of your dog. Well KATIE definitely gave me peace of mind and and allowed me to enjoy my vacation knowing that my dog Boris was in GREAT hands. After the meet and greet, I already had a sense of comfort because of her experience and super friendly demeanor. She also sent me pictures of Boris during walks and my family even told me that my dog can sense that she was close to come get him because he would start to act anxious and wait for her at the door. Knowing that truly solidifies her ability to love and care for your pet. If I ever need someone to walk/watch my dog(s) again, Katie will be my definite go to. THANK YOU KATIE! Oh...she also gave us a farewell dog toy and homemade chocolate chip cookies on her last day walking Boris. This is great customer service and definitely built a great rapport with my family and I.”
About: Growing up, I cared for two little rabbits, two turtles, and fish! For the past two years, I’ve also been helping my relatives walk and care for their dogs, and I’ve found so much joy in spending time with them. As an incoming college freshman, I may not be able to have a pet of my own right now, but I would really love the opportunity to give your furry friends the care and attention. I’m so excited to make every pet feel safe, joy, and loved while you’re away. 🐾 I’m currently working part-time. As an incoming college freshman, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate time to pet care. I enjoy staying active and spending time outdoors, so dog walking fits naturally into my routine. I am available during my free time throughout the week and can provide reliable walk and attentive care. I would love to make it a meaningful part of my weekly routine. I provide loving and safe care by following pets’ routines, offering treats, teaching fun tricks, and keeping a close eye on them during walks to make sure they don’t pick up unsafe during walks.
About: Hi, I’m Anna! I grew up helping raise my French Bulldog, and caring for him is what made me love dogs from such a young age. After losing him four years ago, I started helping friends and family by walking and caring for their dogs, and it’s become something I truly enjoy. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your dog, so I always make sure every walk is safe, fun, and tailored to your pup’s needs and energy level. Whether your dog loves long walks, extra playtime, or a slower-paced stroll, I’m happy to give them lots of attention, care, and exercise while they’re with me. I genuinely love getting to know each dog’s personality and making sure they’re happy and comfortable. I’m a college student home for the summer, so I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to pet care. I enjoy staying active and spending time with animals, and I’m able to make walks, playtime, feeding, potty breaks, and companionship a consistent part of my daily routine. Whether caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I focus on creating a safe, comfortable, and stress-free environment. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, potty breaks, medications if needed, and giving them plenty of attention and care. I also make sure pets feel comfortable, keep their space clean, and provide regular updates to owners.
“Cheryll is awesome. She truly cares about the dogs she walks. She gave my pups a great walk and was very responsive and followed my instructions perfectly. I will definitely use her again as a dog walker, and would highly recommend her to any dog parents out there.”
About: I am my mother's fourth child (I grew up with three golden retrievers). Two of the goldens still go to the beach everyday at ages 15 and 16 (they still live with my mother). I've been swimming, walking, playing, washing, cooking for, feeding, cleaning up after, chauffeuring and generally chilling with dogs almost everyday for 15 years. I'm accustomed to medication regimens and mindful of safe play, especially for elderly and disabled dogs. I'm also very comfortable with large and extra-large dogs. My childhood friends include a Newfoundland and St. Bernard. I have experience pet sitting in clients homes in the Bay but am new to Rover. I just started a sabattical from lawyering. Happy to be your dog's lawyer though (this is not legal advertising). I am on a work sabattical, so I am happy to tailor my schedule to you and your dog's needs. Please provide me with advance notice of your schedule whenever possible. I prefer to care for your dog in their home so that they are the most comfortable. Otherwise I would prefer that your dog and I establish a few walks or activities before boarding at my place, so that they feel safe and comfortable with me.
“Allison has been such an amazing "friend" to our dog, Kona. We can tell how much Kona is loved and cared for while we are away at work and school. We get regular updates on how Kona is doing, including pictures! Would definitely recommend Allison for your dog's needs!”
About: My personal approach to dog care is grounded in genuine care for their well being. Working with my clients I provide prompt communication to ensure your dog is safe, happy, and healthy! Growing up my family had a beautiful 30lb dog that I helped care for from a puppy to old age. Being a part of this process has shown me how to support dogs in each stage of life from rambunctious puppies (structure, training and enrichment) to easing the aging process (special diet, new steps to climb onto the couch, shorter walks etc). Depending on the activity needs of your pup, I’m happy to provide daily walks or short runs (1-3 miles). I'm currently taking a gap year so I have plenty of time for your pups! I'm available weekdays and, with advance planning, can provide housesitting through weekends as well. I live in a single family home with three dogs. However, our family dogs like their space, and it is not available for dog boarding.

“Winnie was exceptional in caring for my complicated chihuahuas and shy cat while I was away.

I recently moved to the Bay Area and am excited to spend time caring for local pets through dog walks and drop-in visits. I have experience caring for dogs of various sizes and temperaments and am comfortable following specific routines, administering basic care, and making sure your pet gets the attention, exercise, and companionship they need.

Pet care fits very naturally into my schedule. I am currently available most days of the week for dog walks and drop-in visits, with the exception of classes on Tuesday and Thursday. Outside of those class hours, I have a flexible schedule and can accommodate a variety of walk and visit times on a regular basis. I enjoy staying active and spending time with animals, so pet care is something I genuinely look forward to incorporating into my daily routine. I am committed to being reliable, communicative, and punctual, and I will always work with pet owners to ensure their pets receive consistent, attentive care. For dog walks, I provide safe, engaging exercise tailored to each dog’s needs while following the owner’s instructions regarding routes, pace, and any behavioral considerations. For drop-in visits, I follow each pet’s normal routine, including feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, playtime, and companionship as needed. I strive to keep pets comfortable and happy in their own environment while their owners are away. For all services, I prioritize safety, reliability, and communication, and I provide updates and photos after each visit.
About: I have taken care of and been around many dogs since childhood. Growing up, my first dog was a Jack Russell Terrier. We got him in 2009 and he lived a happy active life until 2021. In 2022, I adopted an Australian Cattle/Great Dane mix. I also have experience caring for and looking after Golden Retrievers, Labradors, Maltese, Pitbulls, and Dachshunds. My schedule is highly flexible! I am able to switch my schedule to my client's needs to make sure their pet is taken care of. I am available on weekdays, weekends, and most holidays. My dog is super friendly and loves having doggy friends around. I am able to go on long walks and spend time doing enriching activities.
“Jen walked our sweet boy weekly for approximately two months! She was always on time and gave very detailed feedback on the Rover card. Also was very supportive of our continued training during walks as our boy is a pup still working on his manners! Thanks Jen!”
About: I am a physically active recent retiree and capable dog lover who recently lost my beloved Wheaten Terrier after 11 great years with him, so I'm well able to care for your very active or senior dog that might have special dietary or physical needs. I'm recently retired and home every day, so I have lots of time to care for your pet. Drop-off and pick-up very flexible every day and evening. Although we have a securely fenced and paved back yard, it contains a swimming pool, so we kept our own pet indoors or on our fenced in, covered deck/patio which is also secure. We have a large dog crate which our dog slept in every night, but this is flexible depending on your own dog's sleeping preferences. I do not let pets sleep on my bed. We live on a very quiet street with no 'through' traffic, so it's easy to walk your dog regularly without risking encounters with other pets. Our own dog was not comfortable around other dogs and this was easy for us to manage.
“Rochelle was great with my territorial dog for the first meeting. He acclimated to her quickly and we had a nice walk. He stopped barking quickly and was friendly with her which is a great sign. Looking forward to more walks!”

“Sandra & Jose are everything you could want in the people who you trust to watch your pet. I could tell from the photos that my pup felt safe, happy, and truly at home with this lovely couple. It kinda felt like he belongs with them, so I was happy to extend his stay. Communication was on point, lots of cute pupdates, and my dog came home as one should after a lovely vacation— relaxed and happy. Thank you both for your time & dedication. It means the world to my little family.”

She was genuinely sweet with him and made him feel comfortable right away. We highly recommend Christine to anyone who needs a caring person to take care of their four legged family members.”
“I am very grateful to Kyaw for the excellent care provided to our Walter. Kyaw was incredibly responsive, kind, and thoughtful throughout the entire stay. I especially appreciated the regular updates and photos, which gave me great peace of mind while we were away. It was clear our pet was well cared for and in good hands. Thank you again for your professionalism and compassion!”
About: I adopted my first rescue puppy over 19 years ago. Our most recent adoption turned out to be quite the handful. She's extremely reactive and is very anxious around strangers. I've learned so much from caring for her that I know I can care for any dog no matter their personality. I work from home so I'm available everyday and on the weekends too. I'm also self-employed so I set my own schedule and can take walk breaks whenever I like. Our house has a fully fenced in backyard. We also have an extra room that's separate from the rest of the house if your dog needs their own space.
“Doug was great with my terrier. Gave him lots of exercise, was very communicative, sent beautiful photos! I was able to enjoy my time away knowing Parker was in good hands! Thank you Doug!”
“Aimee was absolutely wonderful! She was so kind and took amazing care of Felix while we were away. She kept me updated with lots of pictures, which really put my mind at ease. Felix looked so happy and well cared for the entire time. I would absolutely book another stay with Aimee the next time a need arises. Highly recommend! 🐶”

“Tara was wonderful with Kami! Our girl had a short and sweet stay that was absolutely perfect for her laid-back personality. Kami spent her time relaxing in the sun and just hanging out, which is exactly what she loves. We really appreciated Tara's thoughtful communication throughout the stay. Her daily updates and photos gave us peace of mind and made us smile. It was clear that Kami's chill vibe was a great match for Tara's calm and welcoming environment. We could tell Kami had a great time and felt right at home. We wouldn't hesitate to book with Tara again and highly recommend her to other pet parents!”

She sent me constant updates and the furbabies seemed healthy and so happy! 😀 I couldn’t ask for a better sitter! I would definitely board them again with her if she’s available! She was amazing!”
About: Hi, I’m Thiago! As a lifelong dog lover, I’ve grown up surrounded by dogs and caring for them since childhood. My family has always had dogs, giving me years of hands-on experience with dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. Today, I’m proud to turn that lifelong passion into a career, providing reliable, loving, and attentive care for every pet as if they were my own. 🐾🐾 We’re a family home where everyone is passionate about dogs! I’m home full time so your dog will always be supervised and never left alone. We treat every dog like family and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved throughout their stay 🥰 I have a big fenced yard, turfed and lotta space for your puppy, I have a friendly dog so is a good company to have fun!! Our home is located only 4–5 minutes from the SFO airport which makes drop-off and pick-up super convenient for travelers. We also know that life can be unpredictable, whether it’s a delayed flight, traffic, or last-minute changes, we’re flexible and always do our best to adjust accordingly. My sister has been a professional dog sitter for years, but she’ll be taking a few months off for an upcoming foot surgery and recovery. I recently moved in to help her, and caring for dogs is now my full-time job. If you’re here from her profile, I’d love the opportunity to care for your pup and continue providing the same loving, safe and home away from home experience! ❤️
