“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.”
“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!”
“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.”
“It was our first time using Rover and we were hesitant leaving our fur child with a stranger but when I met Cynthia and her husband Chi, i felt very comfortable and knew our dog was in good hands. Cynthia and Chi welcomed Saint in their lovely home with great backyard space where Saint was able to play with Cynthia’s super friendly golden retrievers. She sent us updates throughout the day which we appreciated and made us feel more at ease that Saint was really enjoying his time with Cynthia and her family. We will definitely be asking Cynthia to care for Saint whenever we’re out of town in the future! Thank you again, Cynthia (and family) this was truly a smooth and great experience!”
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.
“Luke was so great with Garbanzo! He has two other pups Roo and Pickles who get along well with other dogs. He sent me lots of photos of the dogs tired after long days of fun at the dog park.”
“Gordon & Allison were wonderful to Penny, our 14 year old Yorkie. They did a meet-and-greet with us to understand Penny's personality and needs before agreeing to watch her. They sent us wonderful updates throughout Penny's stay with pictures that helped reassure us that Penny was doing okay. You could tell through the pictures that Penny was very comfortable with them. We did a lot of research and meet-and-greets with various sitters before agreeing to hand over our precious puppy to Gordon & Allison; they were our top choice! We're fortunate to have found Gordon & Allison and will have Penny stay with them again in a heartbeat! Thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of her.”
“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.”
“Rachael and her partner were nothing short of amazing with our dog Indy. Indy was instantly relaxed when he arrived for the night at Rachael’s, and had a lovely evening of cuddles and play with Rachael and her “crew”. Her dog and kitty were equally as welcoming to Indy! The picture updates were amazing and unexpected, and I could tell Indy was incredibly comfortable for his overnight stay. 10/10 recommend Rachael, and we will absolutely be booking with her again!”
“Renee and Christopher took great care of Bosco! They shared updates and pictures everyday, and were so accommodating on such a last minute basis. Their two dogs are so sweet and have they have a great setup for dogs, which Bosco clearly loved! Thank you both!!”
“Fern always loves staying with Bennett! It’s such a relief knowing she’s getting good care and enjoying her time away from us. It allows us to enjoy our vacation more. Thank you for all the love and walk you give her. We love the photos and videos!”
“Arani and Napur took wonderful care of our dogs. They took daily photos, kept in touch daily, and sincerely enjoyed our dogs’ company. Our dogs got spoiled with their company and got along with their own pup, Patches. I’d recommend Arani and Napur to everyone considering puppy care. They are a wonderful couple, kind and caring.”
“Kami has an amazing time and is always in a great mood whenever she stays with Mimi and Wilson! I look forward to every “pupdate” with the cutest photos, and Mimi is always super responsive with messages. Highly, highly recommend if you’re looking for someone to give your pup great care and attention. :) Thank you!!”
“I could tell our dog had a great time with Alvin! He was incredibly understanding, attentive and sent us regular updates. He had no problem giving our dog his medicine as well. Our dog can be a handful and has a lot of energy - Alvin made sure to provide daily walks, play time and cuddles. He was also very mindful when having our dog & his dog meet and get used to each other. Our dog was well taken care of and we are so grateful :) We would definitely let our dog stay with him again. We recommend Alvin if you’re looking for someone kind, accommodating, and devoted to making your dog comfortable!”
“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!”

“Vicky did an amazing job with my cat Juno. She walked, fed, and played with her. I was impressed with how quickly she responded to messages and how reliable she was. The daily pictures made me feel confident that my cat was in good hands. I will be booking Vicky in the future!”
“Cheryl was awesome to work with. We don't take trips out longer than a couple days since our cat is used to us being around and we were nervous heading out for 5 days. Cheryl helped with our request of coming in twice a day to check and take care of him, that put us a lot at ease. I would highly recommend Cheryl for taking care of pets. She was great with all the instructions and requests we had.”
“I have booked Sandra multiple times for drop-in visits for my kitties. She has always been reliable, punctual, and attentive to my fur babies’ needs and my instructions, making sure that despite my absence they receive the care and routines that they’re accustomed to. I highly recommend her!”
About: Your cat’s comfort is my priority. I offer reliable, detail-oriented care that keeps your kitty feeling safe while you’re away. I’m especially patient with shy or anxious cats and always move at their pace. From maintaining a clean space to providing enrichment and gentle interaction, I make sure every visit is stress-free. You’ll receive consistent updates and cute photos every time ✨
“Alyssa has taken great care of our cat Mila while we were away. She snapped some great shots that put our minds at ease. She is very thoughtful and thorough. I could not be any more pleased with her services!”
“Ivan did a great job taking care of my two senior cats. He has great communication and I can tell he cares about the animals. He kept the place clean during drop ins and provided updates and photos!”
About: I’m very caring, gentle, and naturally nurturing, especially when it comes to animals. I treat every pet like family and make sure they feel loved, safe, and comfortable with me. I’m patient with shy pets, playful with energetic ones, and extra gentle with senior pets that need calm care and attention. I pay close attention to routines, feeding times, walks, and making sure pets feel happy while their owners are away. I also love giving updates and cute pictures because I know how important pets are to their families
“We engaged Chenyang for several drop-in visits to take care of our cats. She is very responsible, communicative, and punctual. She’s detail-oriented and took photos of her work to assure us that everything was in order. She’s very kind and gentle to pets and our cats warmed up to her very quickly. We would definitely work with her next time!”
About: Hello! I am currently looking to fill my summer break schedule as a teacher and help care for your dogs and cats. I have had experience with dogs since I was super young. I currently have a year old old German shepherd border Collie mix. I can work everyday during my winter break from work and then I can work only on weekends after that. Due to working full time for the school district I care for anyones dog as if the animal Was my own. I would want someone to care for my dog the same way I care for yours. With a ton of love and safety.
“Nikka is a wonderful, caring and attentive pet sitter! She stayed at my house with Juno and Lumi for a long weekend and I received lots of happy cat pictures over my time away. It's so nice to go out of town and know that my house and my boys are well cared for. Thank you Nikka! The boys miss you 😉”
“My cat usually hates everyone except me and my husband but she appeared for Stephanie! Stephanie did a great job following the instructions we left and was able to take us on at the last minute when our usual sitter fell through. Will definitely be booking with her again!”
About: I’m patient, reliable, and genuinely understand cats because I’ve had a few of my own. I’ve cared for both kittens and senior cats, and I can give basic medications when needed. My goal is to keep your cat comfortable, relaxed, and happy while sending plenty of updates so you always know how they’re doing
“Lehna was a fantastic cat sitter, my cats loved her and she took great care of them. They warmed up to her immediately and she was extremely thorough and communicative throughout the entire week. Thanks again, Lehna!”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Josh was an absolute gem of a cat sitter! From our initial video chat, I knew Dennis (my recently adopted ex-street cat) would be in good hands. Josh came to the meet & greet fully prepared and even managed to get Dennis to come out from under the bed—no small feat for a cat who spent 8+ years on the streets! 😸 He sent updates, photos, and thoughtful messages each visit, which really helped ease my first-time Rover nerves. He even met me after to return my keys and parking pass—above and beyond. Josh has great energy, and Dennis clearly approved (which says everything). Highly recommend—your pets will be in caring, capable hands. Will definitely book again!”
About: I have over 22 years of dedicated experience caring for cats and have been the owner of four cats during this time. I am highly familiar with feline behavior, body language, and health needs. My experience includes caring for kittens, adult, and senior cats, administering basic care, maintaining litter hygiene, monitoring appetite and wellness, and creating a calm, stress-free environment. I treat every cat with patience, professionalism, and the same level of care I give to my own pets.
“Vlada was pleasant and easy to work with! She responded promptly and was up for the challenge of taking care of our senior gentleman feline who requires medication and supplements with his feeding. She was happy to connect on a video chat prior to the sitting. We recommend her and would book with her again!”
“Anthony was fantastic in taking care of our two cats (Firefly and Bonfire)! Firefly is scared of everyone but is, but immediately warmed up to Anthony. Bonfire requires meds and Anthony was had no issues administering such things. Would use again in a heartbeat.”
“Crystal agreed to come over for a meet and greet, and take care of our pet cat, Felix, during a last-minute trip around the holidays. She took great care of Felix - we came home to a healthy, happy cat.”

About: Hi! I’m Rene — a part-time Nursing Assistant and part-time pet sitter with 10+ years of experience, and I’m almost always accompanied by my 28-lb dachshund mix, Eli, who loves helping me entertain other pups. We make a great duo for pets who enjoy company, playtime, or just having a buddy around. I’ve cared for puppies, seniors, shy pets, energetic breeds, and animals with special routines or medications. My nursing background makes me calm, attentive, and great at keeping pets on schedule and comfortable. I’ve worked with dogs, cats, small animals, and even some farm animals over the years. No matter the pet, I focus on helping them feel safe, loved, and understood. What sets me apart is my patience, communication, and the added comfort of having a friendly dog companion for pets who enjoy social time. Eli and I keep a calm cozy home environment, but we love to be active & go to nearby beaches, trails and parks in Pacifica. We treat every pet like part of our little pack! Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine since I work part-time as a Nursing Assistant and have a very flexible schedule. I’m home often, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention, walks, structured playtime, and consistent routines. I plan my shifts and errands around the pets I’m caring for so they always get reliable care without long gaps. As a part-time in-home Nursing Assistant, my schedule is very flexible- I’m home most days and build my schedule around Eli’s needs, so any pet staying with us fits right into that rhythm — lots of attention, play, and a predictable, loving routine!
About: With an early start into the industry, I have specialized experience in training, diet, and grooming cats & dogs! I also have in depth, hands on experience with medication administration of pills, capsules, liquids and shots. Building trust is another skill I pride myself on-- I am patient and make steps based on your pets comfortability. I have a deep love and respect for all different kinds of animals and would love to spend more time with them. I am home a lot, so I've got time & space to host! I wake up early for the first walk of the day followed by breakfast. A wind down after walks is my secret to well-adjusted pups. The rest of the day depends on your usual routine with your pup, so fill me in on the details, and I'll mimic that. Here, I have carpet & a fenced yard! I have plenty of toys of all sizes and durability for cats & dogs, a filtered running water fountain, and a tall, multilevel cat tree. I prioritize your pets comfort and establish a trusting relationship between them, myself, and the cats in my home. I love taking photos, and I also have a Furbo in the home, which I can use to send fun clips from your pet's stay!
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.
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.
“It was my first time using Howard & Linda for day care, and it was an excellent experience. Howard and their dog Truman met us for the meet and greet before the scheduled stay, and the dogs got along, as Truman is very easy going. My dog is not friendly with large dogs and requires a special diet, as well as, a regular feeding and walking schedule. Howard accommodated all of my dog’s needs during his stays. Howard & Linda are very friendly and personable people, and I highly recommend them!”
“I’m a first time Rover mom and found Jade L to be a gem! She was super understanding and accommodating of my changes due to family emergency. Then, talk about LOVE she provided my fur babies…Jade L is hands down awesome and has a big and soft heart for ! She took care of Alex and Sky as if they were her own. She sent photos and text to keep me informed of unusual behavior (ie, whimpering) and she also provided a report out at end of day/pick up time. I appreciate you, Jade! Thank you so much!”
“Jessica was great with her communication and follow up before, during and after I stay. It was obvious she enjoys caring for dogs! She sent lots of pictures during the day. Great job!”
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! ❤️
“We're ongoing clients of Gordon & Allison with multiple day sittings. We appreciate Gordon's patience with our senior dog and his sincere interest in wanting her to have a good experience in their home. He was kind in ensuring perishable food was kept chilled when our dog didn't finish her meal. We're so glad we found such trusted sitters.”
“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. ✨”
“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!”
“First time with Leticia for my pup but felt like she’s known my dog forever. Loved the care and concern she showed and how thorough she was with questions before dropping her off. She sent tons of photos even though my pup was with her for only 6 ish hours. 100% would recommend her!”

About: I have several years of experience caring for pets for close friends and family, including dog boarding, dog walking, and house sitting.

“Alyssa was wonderful and treated my 2 dogs so well! She showed up on time for all the walks and communicated information about each walk on the Rover website. She even included some cute pics! I will definitely book with Alyssa again!”
About: I have been an avid animal lover since I was a child. I would collect frogs, salamanders, and snakes then bring them home to show [scare] my family then safely return them to their homes. Beginning from the age of 6 or 7 I began riding horses. I was devoted to horseback riding for years which taught me a number of valuable skills on how to care for animals. In addition, to having multiple family pets including a rat and dogs', I had my own dog [Nala]. I loved, cared for, and nursed Nala through kidney disease which required administering scheduled medications and subcutaneous fluids. After recently loosing Nala, while I am not yet ready to get another pet, I would love to look after yours! Thank you for considering me to take care of your family member. I recently graduated with my master's in healthcare administration. I've been on a job hunt for a couple of months, and I have plenty of spare time. I decided to join Rover to take advantage of my love for animals and my free time by pet sitting! I have a flexible schedule with a minimal advanced notice. I have an enclosed yard and one 7-year-old friendly female husky who lives here. Depending on your pet's personality, preferences, and stay details your family member can stay here, or I will stay with them in your home.
“This was a meet and greet at my house with Erica. She is super friendly knowledgeable and loves dogs! She and her husband Steve are very flexible. I trusted them right away. Elroy will be going to their house for doggie daycare to get them acclimated to their place. Looking forward to it.”
“Ivan just started walking my dogs. He has been great, he came for a meet and greet and both of my dogs liked him immediately. He has been on time and his communication has been great. I have weekly walks booked with him already. Thanks Ivan!”

I have set blocks of time in the mornings, between classes, and in the evenings that I dedicate to feeding, walks, and check-ins. On weekends and lighter class days, I’m able to spend extra time on longer walks, playtime, or sitting stays. I stay organized and plan ahead, so pets always get consistent attention, exercise, and care. I prefer caring for pets in their own home because it keeps them comfortable, relaxed, and in a familiar routine. When I’m in a client’s home, I follow all instructions closely—feeding according to their schedule, refreshing water, providing potty breaks, walks, playtime, and any special care they need.
About: I have always enjoyed being around dogs and have taken care of dogs since I was 12 with my family golden retriever. I am used to walking, feeding, administering medicine, and caring for dogs. I’ve also had experience babysitting kids from ages 1-7. I’m kind, responsible, cautious and playful around kids and babies, so I know I’ll be a great fit with caring for your family pet. I am hoping to meet and assist new furry friends! I’m a Realtor in the San Francisco Bag Area, living in Pacifica. I will have meetings and days I go into the office however I can work from home most days. I would be happy to stop by your house to feed, walk, and play with your dog! My space does not allow dogs so I would be going into your space to take care of your dog! I have a golden retriever of 11 years and love to interact, play, and give love to any dogs!
About: I believe that my compassion for all beings (animas included!) and soulful connection to them ensure proper care and safety from me to them! Under my care, your loved one is seen and loved🌎🐾 I currently have a very free schedule! I am still dedicating time to learning on my free time. That being said, I’m very open and flexible to work with your schedule that serves your pet the best. Before anything, I’d like to meet your pet and make sure they feel comfortable with me! Depending on your instructions, your pet will be supervised with freedom to safely explore

“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.”
“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!”
“It was our first time using Rover and we were hesitant leaving our fur child with a stranger but when I met Cynthia and her husband Chi, i felt very comfortable and knew our dog was in good hands. Cynthia and Chi welcomed Saint in their lovely home with great backyard space where Saint was able to play with Cynthia’s super friendly golden retrievers. She sent us updates throughout the day which we appreciated and made us feel more at ease that Saint was really enjoying his time with Cynthia and her family. We will definitely be asking Cynthia to care for Saint whenever we’re out of town in the future! Thank you again, Cynthia (and family) this was truly a smooth and great experience!”
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.
“Luke was so great with Garbanzo! He has two other pups Roo and Pickles who get along well with other dogs. He sent me lots of photos of the dogs tired after long days of fun at the dog park.”
“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.”
“Rachael and her partner were nothing short of amazing with our dog Indy. Indy was instantly relaxed when he arrived for the night at Rachael’s, and had a lovely evening of cuddles and play with Rachael and her “crew”. Her dog and kitty were equally as welcoming to Indy! The picture updates were amazing and unexpected, and I could tell Indy was incredibly comfortable for his overnight stay. 10/10 recommend Rachael, and we will absolutely be booking with her again!”
“Kami has an amazing time and is always in a great mood whenever she stays with Mimi and Wilson! I look forward to every “pupdate” with the cutest photos, and Mimi is always super responsive with messages. Highly, highly recommend if you’re looking for someone to give your pup great care and attention. :) Thank you!!”
“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!”
“Ivan is friendly and his home and two dogs are lovely. He has a nice backyard so dogs can go in and out, and he took Ginger on a nice run-around so she was returned happy and tired. Will definitely hire Ivan again!”
“Drew and Gregg were fantastic! They took such great care of Dosa, making him feel right at home. He clearly had a wonderful time with them. They were very communicative, shared regular updates, and pampered him like their own. We came home to such a happy boy!”
“We had excellent experience boarding our dog with Jeffrey. We had our dog stay with Jeff for almost 2 weeks over the holidays. We had an initial meet and greet before we booked the stay. Jeffery accommodated our needs, was very responsive and regularly sent us updates with pictures and videos of our dog. It was rainy many days when we were away and he offered to wash/clean our dog but asked for our permission before doing so. His place is close to the airport and we were able to leave our car parked on the street near his house while we were away without any problem which was convenient. We 100% recommend Jeffery and will use his services again in the future.”
“Wei was great. She was very responsive when I checked in on my pup Fox and provided updates upon request. She was flexible with the times I dropped him off and picked him up. My pup returned happy, healthy, and a (good) tired. I would definitely recommend Wei and her hubby Ramon :)”
“Joseph was awesome! He was very flexible with drop off and pick up time. Every day he sent me photos of Lola. When I pick up Lola she seemed very happy and tired. I will totally leave Lola again with Joseph and his family.”
About: Virtually 24/7 availability! I work from home and can provide care and attention for almost all day long. I have had dogs for about 20 years as well as lots of foster/rescue experience. I work from home so I can care for your pet as needed! Your dog can have run of the house - I allow dogs on furniture and even let them sleep in our bed if that's what they are used to. I have a fenced backyard and a small, friendly, neutered Pomeranian mix to keep your dog company! I am in a single adult home with no children.
“Henri had a great weekend at Paulina’s! She came out to greet us and then took the leash and introduced Henri to her home-he was so comfortable with her from the start. Our dog has hardly been away from us in his 7 years and I was a little nervous about leaving him with someone new, but I soon realized I had nothing to worry about. Paulina is a very relaxed person and sent updates and adorable photos each day. It made me happy to see him look so at home with her. Don’t let her lack of a backyard discourage you-Henri was happy and tired when we picked him up. We will call on her whenever we need a dog sitter for when we visit our daughter in SF. Paulina was an absolute lifesaver and we are so happy to have found her!”
“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.”
