“We had a great experience with Yijiu! She was super responsive, kind, and very attentive to Leo. It was clear that she took great care of him, and Leo had such a fun time playing with her family. She was also very detail-oriented and kept us updated throughout his stay. We would definitely book with her again!”
“Ana was a blessing! On very short notice, she took in our special needs pup who requires specific attention and medications. She kept us well informed and we could tell he was in good hands and happy from his expressions. Sometimes it is hard to find someone who cares as much as Ana about our guy. Thank you!”
“Yogesh and his partner were fantastic hosts and took wonderful care of our two dogs. They responded quickly to our emails and followed up with the reservation in a very efficient manner. During our dogs' stay with Yogesh, we were updated daily with pictures and comments on how our girls were doing. We greatly appreciated the calm environment they offer and their expertise: they truly know how to manage dogs and have obvious experience on how to make it a pleasant, fun, and safe experience for the dogs. They also carefully followed our indications on feeding and on providing medication to our older one. Upon their return home, our girls were happy and clean. They had a great time, and we had a relaxed time away knowing they were in good hands.”
“Thiago took the best care of Rudy this past long weekend. Rudy got a ton of play time and TLC and Thiago kept me updated and sent photos every day. Thiago is also easy to reach and a great communicator. I feel that my pup is in great hands!!! Thank you Thiago!”
“Catherine and her husband are so sweet and communicative! We received daily updates on Gale’s behavior and lots of cute pics! They spoiled our dog with two walks a day (I normally only give her one!) and have a fenced in yard for play. I could tell that they really cherished having our dog’s company instead of just dogsitting for the additional income. Their heart is in it for sure!”
“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!”
“Ivan was wonderful with our Bernadoodle! He sent a ton of photos and I felt super comfortable knowing our pup was loved and cared for while we were away. I highly recommend Ivan and plan to have Summit stay with him again in the future.”
“Kim was super communicative and caring. I could tell she truly loved furry friends: lots of play time, pictures and videos. She also accommodated our needs to adjust pickup time with zero issues. Highly recommended!”
“Kathryn and Jason were amazing pet sitters for our labradoodle while we were away! Great communications, easy to schedule drop off/ pick up, and most importantly they were very caring for our pup. She clearly had a great time with them. We will definitely book with them again!”
“Marie is amazing. This was a last-minute booking on my part and she had never met my dog before. She won him over quickly, has a lot of experience with dogs, and even took initiative to give Willy Wonka a small haircut around his eyes because I haven't had time to maintain him. He was in very good hands with her and her communication was stellar!”
“Yu-Liang & Yi-Ting were awesome with our dogs. Super caring, easy to communicate with, and clearly love dogs. We felt very comfortable leaving our pups with them and would absolutely book them again!”
“I had such a wonderful experience leaving Pichu with Valerie and Rich while I was traveling to New York. Pichu can be a little anxious and takes some time to feel comfortable with new people, so I’m always very particular about who I leave her with. Valerie and Rich were incredibly kind, patient, and attentive with her, and I felt completely reassured knowing she was in such caring hands. Valerie kept me updated while I was away, was always responsive, and most importantly, I could tell Pichu felt safe and comfortable with them. It gave me so much peace of mind during my trip. I came home to a happy, well-cared-for dog, which is really all you can ask for. I’m so grateful to have found Valerie and Rich and would absolutely trust them with Pichu again. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for genuinely caring, responsible people to look after their dog.”
“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.”
“Mario and Julia did an amazing job taking care of my pup. Communication was great, Mario sent tons of adorable pictures and provided daily updates. My pup got a lot of exercise at the dog park and made lots of new doggie friends. They also gave her a lot of love. I left my pup with them for a whole two weeks and was worried but she had such a blast with them. I will book again and highly recommend!”
“Felt very reassured during the entire booking. I received constant updates and pictures of my dog while I was gone. She always asked questions when unsure and was very flexible to make sure my dog got the care he needed. Very fast at responding. Overall great experience.”
“Yvonne and her partner took such good care of Benny! He barely wanted to leave. lol She provided frequent updates and made sure he got plenty of exercise. Thanks for everything <3”
“Leeeeun and her family was so wonderful to our Bonnie. I received updates everyday, multiple times a day, and tons of photos! Communication was great and fast. Above of all, Bonnie really likes her and her family! I definitely will book with her again. As a matter of the fact, my boyfriend wants her to be our regular dog sitter.”

“Blessy is a super kind and knowledgeable sitter. She certainly got my cats to warm up to her very fast. She completed all the tasks we requested of her and was super flexible when our plans changed. We appreciated the care she gave our cat Anchovy who is quite the active youngster, we could tell he had been played with sufficiently by her. He didn’t seem anxious at all when we got home. Needless to say, we appreciated all the detailed care our pets received in our home. Our older cat Chiquitina seemed pleased and that made us happy. We hope to have Blessy sit for us again sometime soon”
“Andrea was an amazing sitter to my 2 pet bunnies. Communicated proactively and quickly, and left detailed descriptions of everything the bunnies did, so I felt very comfortable leaving them in her care :) I loved that she took lots of photos and videos, and she definitely went the extra mile! Highly recommend!”
“Outstanding! I cannot recommend Natalie highly enough. She looked after our cats for three weeks and each day gave them excellent care with detailed reports and photos. She outfoxed an invading ant colony, offered to do laundry where cats had sickup-ed, cleaned floors of accidents, brought extra treats, supplies and litter from home.”
“I highly recommend Yujia! She’s been taking care of my dog for the past 4 weeks and has been great. She feeds her, takes her to the park, and always sends me pictures and updates. My dog seems very happy and comfortable with her. I’m really glad I found her!”
“Maria is extremely attentive and responsible! She treated my cats with great care and special attention. Knowing they were well taken care of while I was away gave me a great deal of comfort and relief.”
About: I have years of experience taking care of cats for friends when they travel. I love to play and cuddle with cats. I am good at connecting with cats and making them feel comfortable and happy. I look forward to meeting with your cute and furry friends!
About: I have volunteered and helped cats at the Peninsula Humane Society since 2016. I have experience with socializing shy cats and kittens. I have also been a cat mom for the past two years and neighbors have asked me to watch their cats as well. I have experience with administering medication orally and through injections. I also have experience socializing, playing, and walking small to medium sized dogs! I currently live in San Bruno and work full-time in San Mateo so I will always be nearby for a visit to your pet. I am entirely free on weekends so I may be able to drop in for a visit earlier in the day. I am always diligent about following guidelines set aside for me. I understand that every household is different, so I do my very best to learn and adapt to any changes as needed.
About: Hi everybody my name is Maya! I’ve been taking care of animals since I was very young ever since I adopted my first dog at 8! 🐕 I’ve had so many pets from dogs, cats, fish, birdies to hermit crabs 🦜 I work part time and finishing up my degree at the local community college in my area so I have tons of free time to take care of your baby! I have a friendly older mini schnauzer and would love to meet your baby! Of course if not, no problem, we have a balcony and tons of space to roam!
“Mashiat took care of our cat twice in a short period of time. Each time, he came back happy and healthy. She is very responsive and accommodating and sends daily updates. We know that our cat was well taken care of and would definitely book with Mashiat again!”
“Tony and Alicia — pro team. I knew my fur baby was in such good hands. Thorough updates after every visit, some of the best photos I’ve seen, and most importantly, such genuine care and attention.”
“Stephanie has been so great with my cat. He seems to really like her and she gives detailed notes about her visits. I gave her a few specific requests and she followed them exactly which I appreciate so much. Overall, she’s a great choice and I would not hesitate to reach out to her again.”
“This was my first time using Rover, and the first time I’ve had someone come to my house to take care of my baby. Usually I board my cat, but I decided to try Rover, so that my cat can stay home and not be stressed out due to staying somewhere else. I messaged and interviewed a couple of people, Rover recommends this. Katie definitely stood out from the rest. After being at my house for just a couple of minutes, Bacardi came out of hiding and had a connection with Katie. She made me feel comfortable, she had a calming personality, and you can tell she really loves pets. Katie arrived every day on time, would send me a text message with pictures and Bacardi loved seeing her. Katie is very professional, respectful and amazing with animals. If you need to pick someone to take care of your babies, pick Katie!”

“Vicki was AMAZING. If you are looking for someone who is considerate, kind, helpful, loves animals and who will shower your fur babies with endless affection, then Vicki is the person for you. If you have a trip then I would HIGHLY recommend booking with them.”
“Alia took such good care of our cat Bo by dropping in twice per day for 4 days. 1) She was very responsive - proactively sharing videos of how she locked the door 2) She proactively reached out to ensure that Bo’s litter habits were fine 3) She spent more than the scheduled amount of time on many occasions. We would hire her again in a heartbeat.”

“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!”
“Yijiu was so great to work with. She was able to take my last minute request to host Sunny for daycare. She was very communicative and sent pictures throughout the day to keep me updated. Would absolutely trust her to watch Sunny again.”
“Kim was really patient with Moxie and I and very communicative as well! She went above and beyond my expectations during the care and pick-up/drop-off as well. I cannot say enough praise for her excellent service! :)”
About: I have two years of daily, hands-on experience caring for my own dog, Kylie. She is energetic but can be shy in unfamiliar situations, so I have learned to read a dog’s body language, give them time to adjust, and build trust without forcing interaction. In addition to caring for Kylie, I regularly help care for my friends’ dogs when they are away. This has given me experience following different feeding, walking, playtime, and bathroom routines and caring for dogs with different personalities and energy levels. I am patient, attentive, and careful about following each owner’s instructions. I will treat your dog with the same care I give my own and provide regular photo and message updates while you are away. I currently have a flexible schedule, so I am able to plan my day around pet care and provide consistent attention rather than rushing between visits. I am generally available on weekdays for walks, drop-in visits, and house sitting. I can accommodate morning, afternoon, and evening care depending on the booking. I will confirm my availability before accepting each request and make sure I have enough time to follow your pet’s usual feeding, walking, playtime, and bathroom routine. I provide care in my client’s home, where pets can remain comfortable in their familiar environment. Before the booking, I prefer to have a meet and greet to learn about each pet’s personality, routine, care instructions, and any special needs. I carefully follow the owner’s directions for feeding, walks, playtime, and medication. I pay close attention when entering or leaving the home and always check that doors, windows, gates, leashes, and harnesses are secure. I will never let a pet off leash or introduce them to unfamiliar animals without the owner’s permission. I respect my client’s home, keep the pet’s space clean, and maintain their usual routine as closely as possible. I also provide regular photos and updates and will contact the owner promptly if I notice any unusual behavior or health concerns.
“Stephanie was very communicative and made me feel at ease dropping off my puppy! I love getting photos and updates on how he is adjusting as he continues to grow and she did just that! She was very accommodating for a last minute booking and I can’t say how appreciative I was! I felt like my puppy was in loving hands and it was great she had a backyard space to help with the frequent potty breaks to help prevent any accidents! To know someone is willing to help continue a puppies training and reinforce good habits is so helpful! I would book her again anytime!”

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.
“Rudy had a wonderful day with Thiago. He came back well card for, exercised, and happy. Thiago was great about sending photos and videos. Highly recommend Thiago as a dog sitter!”
About: I am an IT professional who is VERY passionate about animals 🫶🏻 I even decided to take them off my plate entirely 😅 Working with animals is my form of therapy and a way to exercise. I work from home and pretty much make my own schedule so I am very flexible 🤗 I grew up with dogs, cats and hamsters in the home, and I currently have a dog 🐕, 2 cats 🐈, and a hamster 🐹 I worked for a dog walking company in the past, so I have experience taking care of dogs of different sizes, from Tea Cup Poodles to Newfoundland Retrievers. I also did A Lot of volunteering at no-kill shelters when I was in school. During my Rover ‘career’ I got a chance to learn how to care for other animals: bunnies, parrots and mice😁 I have experience administering medications, including injections (subcutaneous and inter muscular only) PS I take a TON of photos for Rover cards and add notes to them😉 (see examples in my photo gallery) Have reliable transportation (SUV) to take your dog or cat places such as grooming salons, hospitals, parks, etc. Available during weekends and holidays (I’m a hermit😅) If your dog doesn’t mind company, I would bring my German Shepherd. I will, of course, ask you first 🙃 Sharing is caring so I usually bring a wide variety of treats😋 I normally don’t walk more than 3 dogs at a time so that your pets get more attention and love🥰 I shall treat your furry friends same way I treat my own pets and my fur balls are spoiled with love!!! Ultimately, I will strictly follow your instructions. The more details you provide the better care your furry companions gets🙂

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 am a very responsible person. I am a dog lover. I have dog for almost 20 years. Your dog will be safe and happy here with me. I work at home. I have time to spoil your dog. Your dog will be safe and happy staying with me while you are away. I walk my dog daily. I can take your dog for walk in nice safe neighborhood. Your dog will have a good time with me. As dog lovers passionate about pet care, I have gained hands-on experience raising our dogs and caring for various breeds. I have become adept at understanding the unique needs of many dogs, from training puppies to providing senior care. Exceptional communication skills will provide peace of mind to owners. I always prioritize being responsive and available to owners, keeping them informed and at ease about their pets' well-being.
“Our dog Pretzel seemed to have a great day with Zheng! She had other dogs to play with and she was happy at the end of the day. We got pictures throughout and I think Pretzel is looking forward to her next visit.”
“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!”
“Lisa was fabulous! My first time using her and she was great! Lisa took Dexter out for multiple walks and sent so many pictures to keep me informed. Most of all Dexter was so happy. I will be using Lisa in the future.”

About: I have raised my almost 13 year old husky since he was a few months old, so I've handled both ends of the spectrum, from puppy training (potty training, crate training, puppy play time) to senior care as he approaches 13. Whether it's cleaning up messes or complex medication regiments, I'm comfortable and confident with pets of all sizes at any stage and I'd love to bring that same care to your dog. I'm self-employed and work from home full time, which gives me a flexible schedule throughout the day. My husky and I go on multiple walks a day as part of our normal routine, and I have plenty of time and energy to share with more furry friends. I genuinely love spending time with dogs, whether that's a quick drop-in visit, playtime in the backyard, a walk around the neighborhood, or a trip to the park. I'm attentive to each dog's comfort level and adjust activities to what they enjoy most, so every visit feels safe and fun for them.
“Zheng is a lifesaver! My dog has tons of energy, and Zheng did a fantastic job making sure he got a proper workout. I really appreciated the detailed Rover cards and the cute photos sent during the walk. It’s such a relief knowing my dog is in such capable hands while I’m traveling”
“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: I have my own dog, Kaeda who recently turned 7! My family & I adopted her when she was just months old, so I have experience with young puppies as well! I’ve also taken care of my friends and family’s dogs & have recent experience in house sitting cats. I loved all my experiences so much, I want to give back and offer it to my community as well! :) I currently work part-time Mon, Tues, Fri from 10-7 so those days would be a little different. I’d wake up at 8am to carry out my morning routine with my dog on the days I work. After work, I like to go out for walks with my own dog and play with her & her toys before ending my day. My off days would follow a similar schedule but with a lesser gap in the middle of the day which I would spend with my dog :) Depending on what a specific pet’s needs are, I can cater to being more or less active with them. Generally, I like keep my pet active throughout the day by going on walks / playing with toys / sunbathing and I give them space if needed. I also value cleanliness by always wiping my dog down before and after going outside or providing baths when needed.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats for the past 5 years (maybe more). Neighbors, friends, and relatives have relied on me for walks, feeding, and grooming. I enjoy taking care of pets(in general) because I love seeing their personalities shine through and it’s rewarding to see them enjoy their time with me. As always I make sure the care I give is the same as their owners because I want to make sure the routine doesn’t change. I work from home which is convenient because my schedule is very flexible. I’m usually free in the afternoons from Monday to Wednesday (1-7pm). Thursdays are my busiest days at work as I have meetings all day until 5pm. And most Fridays I’m free as well(10:30am-6pm). For house sitting, since I have a pet of my own (a cat 🐱), I would need to be home by 6:30pm to feed her for dinner. So I would prefer to care for your pet during the day, leave around 6pm, then come back the following morning to continue care. I am open to staying overnight but it would have to be 2 nights at max. Any house sitting stays more than 2 nights I would need to leave to feed my cat dinner and come back the following morning. When doing visits, I will be attentive of your pet and their environment at all times. Every visit I’ll make sure they’re well fed, water is fresh, and play with them as needed. Please let me know if there are specific instructions that I need to follow when I’m at your residence. I’m also familiar with a bunch of parks that are dog/pet friendly in the peninsula so your pet will always be entertained and safe in my care. Also for house sits, because I wfh and work with patients, please let me know of any cameras in your place and make sure to mute the microphones as I do not want to violate HIPAA.
“I’m so glad I found Cheryll! She is the most responsive provider I’ve communicated with, and my little guy was immediately comfortable with her. Will definitely be requesting her services again. Thank you Cheryll!!”
“Winnie was exceptional in caring for my complicated chihuahuas and shy cat while I was away. Her thoughtfulness and dedication provided them with the companionship they craved, going far beyond what was expected. My pets were happy and well-cared for, and I’m incredibly grateful for her outstanding help. Highly recommend!”
About: I grew up with dogs (a Golden Retriever and Terrier mix) and have since dog sat for many families throughout the years. I love an excuse to walk and spend time outdoors. My children are also very active and enjoy having a dog in our home so your dog is guaranteed a lot of attention, playtime and love. My children are ages 25 (a grad student at UC Davis), 22 (just graduated from UCSC and 18 (living at home and attending community college). I recently moved into an apartment so I no longer have a yard but we do have a nice street view that dogs really enjoy. I have to be mindful of noise having neighbors downstairs and next-door so if your dog tends to bark a lot my home may not be the best fit. Addition services: we had a bunny for 13 years that I really miss. We also offering bunny sitting for neutered and vaccinated buns. I currently work part time at a major airline (4 hours per day) and I typically work 5 days per week giving me plenty of time to spend with your pet. There is usually someone at home either me or my children. We do not have any pets of our own and I only watch one pet at a time. I make sure that everyone in my home is mindful of keeping the door closed.
About: I've cared for my own 2 cats since 2018 when they were kittens. Now an expert in convincing and bribing cats to love me (while sometimes shoving meds down their throat). An excellent poop scooper! I work from home in Burlingame (Hanover Burlingame, if you are a neighbor, hi!). Weekdays are wide open for me to care for your pet child. Check calendar or with me for weekend availabilities :D For drop-in visits, I first take off my shoes (always!). I strive to keep your home, your child's food & litter setup as mess free as possible
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: 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.
About: I only care for 1 dog at a time, so your pup always has my full attention. I have years of experience caring for my own special-needs dog, which taught me how to handle medical routines with patience and care. Whether your dog enjoys active beach runs or a slower pace, I’ll adapt to their needs. Above all, I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I work from home at my own schedule, so I have plenty of time to accomodate the needs of your dog. It will never be short on care, play, or cuddles. I have a 5 year-old husky mix who lives in our house with fenced yard. We live 20 min away from the beach, minutes from parks and many trails.

“Ana was a blessing! On very short notice, she took in our special needs pup who requires specific attention and medications. She kept us well informed and we could tell he was in good hands and happy from his expressions. Sometimes it is hard to find someone who cares as much as Ana about our guy. Thank you!”
“Yogesh and his partner were fantastic hosts and took wonderful care of our two dogs. They responded quickly to our emails and followed up with the reservation in a very efficient manner. During our dogs' stay with Yogesh, we were updated daily with pictures and comments on how our girls were doing. We greatly appreciated the calm environment they offer and their expertise: they truly know how to manage dogs and have obvious experience on how to make it a pleasant, fun, and safe experience for the dogs. They also carefully followed our indications on feeding and on providing medication to our older one. Upon their return home, our girls were happy and clean. They had a great time, and we had a relaxed time away knowing they were in good hands.”
“Thiago took the best care of Rudy this past long weekend. Rudy got a ton of play time and TLC and Thiago kept me updated and sent photos every day. Thiago is also easy to reach and a great communicator. I feel that my pup is in great hands!!! Thank you Thiago!”
“Catherine and her husband are so sweet and communicative! We received daily updates on Gale’s behavior and lots of cute pics! They spoiled our dog with two walks a day (I normally only give her one!) and have a fenced in yard for play. I could tell that they really cherished having our dog’s company instead of just dogsitting for the additional income. Their heart is in it for sure!”
“Kathryn and Jason were amazing pet sitters for our labradoodle while we were away! Great communications, easy to schedule drop off/ pick up, and most importantly they were very caring for our pup. She clearly had a great time with them. We will definitely book with them again!”
“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.”
“Leeeeun and her family was so wonderful to our Bonnie. I received updates everyday, multiple times a day, and tons of photos! Communication was great and fast. Above of all, Bonnie really likes her and her family! I definitely will book with her again. As a matter of the fact, my boyfriend wants her to be our regular dog sitter.”
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.
“Communicative and I really enjoyed seeing pictures of our pup during her stay! Stella I'm sure enjoyed all the play time and walks~ Thank you! Would love for her to stay again!”
“Shao Er took excellent care of our dog while we were away for almost two weeks. I can always tell our pup had a good time when she says goodbye to the person who watched her instead of just heading out. We will be back next time we need someone to care for our dog when we are away!”
“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.”
“Shoutout to Cynthia and her family for doing such an amazing job of watching Maverick while we were away on vacation. It was like a vacation for our pup with all of the walks, attention and playtime he got throughout the week. They treated Maverick like one of their own dogs. We also got so many videos and photos every single day and kept us feeling close to our dog while we’re away. Thank you again, Cynthia! We shall be back soon for boarding and doggy daycare.”
“William and his wife took wonderful care of Luna. They sent frequent photos, videos, and updates of her happily playing. They even fixed her loose stools with a doggy probiotic which I appreciated so much. Am grateful to have found loving sitters for our family member. They clearly have lots of dog and pet experience.”
“Joseph is a nice guy who took good care of my 6 month old puppy. He gave me update with pics everyday which gave me peace of mind that my pup was doing ok. He seemed to have a great time playing with the other dogs in the yard. The day after he came home, he was a bit mopey and I think it was because he missed Joseph, his family and the other dogs!”
“I’m so glad that I found Irene! The care and communication she provides gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. She provided frequent photos and updates of how my doggo was doing. When I came to pick up Ollie, he seems to have already grown attached to Irene and Sean. Will definitely book again!”
“Marley had such a fun stay, and we felt completely at ease leaving him with Jeffrey and Victor! Jeffrey’s updates and photos were so reassuring. It was clear Marley was having a little vacation of his own and loved spending time with their pup, Barney. He was obviously in very capable, caring hands—just as he would be with us. We already have a second stay booked and look forward to many more!”
