Absolutely wonderful from start to finish! Communication was excellent throughout the entire process. I had a few specific instructions for my pup’s stay, and not only were they followed perfectly—they even offered helpful suggestions and kept me updated with pictures and videos the whole time. The level of care and attention my dog received was outstanding, and I could tell he felt right at home the moment we arrived. There’s a warm, calming energy in this home that you can feel immediately and clearly, my pup felt it too. I’m beyond grateful and will definitely be booking again whenever I’m out of town. Thank you so much! Can’t wait to see you all again soon!

We were looking for a new sitter because our usual sitter was unavailable for an upcoming trip. At the meet and greet with Robin, we were worried when Shamu barked every time she got up and walked around. It always takes time for our cautious dog to warm up to new people. Robin suggested that Shamu stay with her to make certain that they would get along. Wow, we were surprised by the glowing reports and Robin told us that Shamu was a gentleman! Robin and Daniel's loving ways won over our little dog. We are looking forward to using them again.

Megan is the absolute best petsitter! Pippa stayed at her house for a week, and I could tell she was in great hands the whole time. Megan, as usual, kept me updated with cute photos and little check-ins, which really put me at ease. Pippa came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for one more time. Will definitely be booking with Megan again and again!

Emerson is a great sitter. Excellent communication from setting up an initial meet and greet and throughout the stay. He was always very professional in the booking process as well as asking questions about my dog’s routine for his overnight stay. Emerson’s place is extremely dog-friendly and setup to have more than one dog as he has his own very sweet dog. Our dogs got along which was testing during the meet and greet but he had options if they didn’t. My dog enjoyed the long walk and loving care of Emerson’s home. He sent updates and lots of photos. Will definitely book again!

Piedmont Pines, Oakland, CA, 94611

About: We've designed our experience a little differently than most. Rather than filling our home with multiple unfamiliar dogs, we intentionally host just one dog (or one family's dogs) at a time. We made this decision because we know separation can be hard. Our goal is to give every guest a calm, relaxing vacation while giving their humans peace of mind knowing their pup has our full attention. My husband Cameron and I have both been around animals our entire lives and have experience with puppies, seniors, bulldogs, and dogs with special needs. We also have two young kids (ages 3 & 6) who absolutely love animals and know how to be gentle and respectful around them. Whether your dog loves hiking, backyard sniff sessions, playing fetch, or simply curling up on the couch for a nap, we'll happily match their pace. We'll also send plenty of photos and updates throughout their stay because we know being away from your dog isn't always easy. We'd love to meet you both! We keep our schedule intentionally flexible so we can build our day around your dog's routine instead of expecting them to adjust to ours. Your dog's safety is our number one priority. Our backyard is fully fenced and we supervise outdoor time closely. Because we have young children, we've already built our home around safety. Medications, chemicals, and anything potentially dangerous stay locked away, and as a gardener I'm always mindful of which plants are safe and which aren't. If your dog joins us for a walk or an adventure, they'll always be on leash and right by our side. They won't be left unattended anytime, ever. We don't take guest dogs to dog parks or introduce them to unfamiliar dogs. We prefer controlled environments where we know exactly what's going on. We know leaving your dog with someone new can feel stressful. We take that responsibility seriously and will care for them like one of our own.

She followed the written instructions we left for her and confirmed additional instructions we texted after we left for our trip. She texted us pictures of Chilli with updates. She also went beyond her responsibilities and checked for ants that had invaded our home before we left for our trip. She exceeded our expectations and we’ll definitely schedule her again soon!

About: Hi, Meghan here, I have always been a dog-lover. I live in Oakland with my mom, a fellow dog-lover! I allow our furry friends on the couch, but can also work on furniture-boundaries if your pooch isn't allowed on furniture at your own home. I work from home, so I'll be home most of the day during the weekdays. The longest your pup will be home alone (with my pups) is around 5 hours. I am comfortable with big dogs. I can give medications, and can brush your pooch as well! Here's a little about us: Meghan has been a dog-lover since birth. She grew up with dogs of all shapes and sizes. Treesa loves pups of all sizes! Meet my pets: Just the dogs! About my yard We have a fenced backyard. My experience administering medication We are comfortable administering oral medication. **We do have a Potty Clause. We understand accidents happen, and are very forgiving, as pups are often excited and can't help themselves at first. However, we have occasionally had extreme repeat offenders. We take dogs on the basis that they are potty trained. If we feel there are an excessive number of indoor incidents, we will let you know, and ask for a $10 additional fee (per week, or fraction thereof), to cover the cost of laundry and cleaning supplies.** Thanks! I work from home so your pup will hang out with me at home, join me on walks, and get to spend the day with me! I have a fenced yard. Security gate at my back door means fresh air without escape opportunity. We're working on installing a dog door, so that should happen later this year!

I also have a large fenced-in yard perfect for safe playtime, fetch, and sunbathing naps! Whether you need boarding, feeding, or quick potty breaks, I’ve got you covered.

Chad took excellent care of my young and energetic greyhound with a lot of separation anxiety. When I picked her up she was happy and excited, but she didn’t show any signs of distress. Prior to my dog’s stay at his home Chad had invited us over for a meet&greet and he took a lot of time to inquire about my dog’s character and behaviors, which made me very confident that things would be alright. Chad was also willing to accommodated my travel schedule. I am happy with the experience and hope he will be available next time I have to go out of town.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats since I was 10. I’m comfortable with everything from medication and special instructions to long walks, playtime, and plenty of affection. I also love taking pets on great outdoor adventures and capturing amazing photos along the way. If you enjoy seeing your dog happy, active, and photographed like a model at golden hour, you’re in the right place. I’m reliable, communicative, and treat every pet as if they were my own. My goal is simple: your pet feels safe, stimulated, and loved, and you get peace of mind (plus some pretty incredible pictures). I have a full time job, but have a flexible schedule. I can do mostly 30min visits or longer on weekends. But am willing to coordinate on as needed basis. I can do mainly drop in visits as I have 2 cats and a turtle currently at my place. So home stay will not work.

Briana came through for us in a pinch, responding promptly to our daycare request and providing top-notch care for our pup. We felt completely at ease leaving her with Briana, especially knowing that she also had a furry friend in Banks. Briana's regular updates, with videos and pictures, kept us connected and reassured throughout Maple's stay. The extra gesture of taking Maple on a lengthy walk, keeping her occupied with toys and treats, speaks volumes about Briana's dedication and kindness. Maple returned home happy and thoroughly worn out—a thank you Briana!

Our recently adopted puppy had his first doggy daycare stay with Beatryx. Beatryx made sure that we felt comfortable that our puppy would be introduced to other pups in a measured and controlled way, and that Beatryx would give us updates about our pup's day. Sure enough we got plenty of picture updates, our pup made friends, and was happy as a clam when we picked him up.

About: I care for pets like my own. I go above and beyond and make sure they are clean and happy. I love taking the dogs I care for on long walks and I also enjoy playing with them, and giving them attention through a good 'ole fashioned belly rub. I am happily retired and love animals. My husband and I were pet owners to a beautiful spunky, honey-colored Pomeranian, named Daisy. Sadly she passed away in 2021 after 13 beautiful years together. I haven't replaced her since. I dog/pet sit for my friends' dogs on occasion. Pet sitting helps fill the void of my Daisy and I would like to do it more for those that may need it. My friends and family entrust me with their pets because they know I will care for them as my own. When I dog sit, I give them attention, play with them, and take them on walks. If I'm not taking them for a walk around the neighborhood or the local park, I have a backyard for them to handle their immediate business. I have a fenced backyard, a spacious living room and a large bonus room that is connected to our living room that allows dogs space to roam around. And if requested, I can also administer medications or have your dog sleep in their crate, if needed.

About: I am an all around animal lover with extensive experience in the care for and training of cats and dogs. Pawsitive reinforcement and clicker training have been my focus. I have worked in a doggy day care/boarding facility in San Francisco and gained hands-on experience on caring for 20-50 dogs at once. I have always cared for my friend's and family's pets as well. I also worked at a doggy day care in Fremont, CA caring for about 15-20 dogs on a daily basis including overnight care. Why I love dog sitting I have been an animal lover all my life. My first memories are those in which I was in contact with animals. My passion for dogs came to me as a child and over the years I learned many training methods and hope to help all dogs in need of attention/love/training. About my yard I currently have no yard. My experience administering medication I have experience in administering various medications and would be please to help take care of a special needs pup. I have lots of experience with dogs that get siezures as well.

About: I have been taking care of my family’s and friends dog/pets for years now due to my love of animals, I made sure they are well fed and taken care of no matter what. Nothing makes me sadder than a suffering animal, so I make sure they are taken care of no matter what! I can usually do it after my classes during the week days but I tend not to want to do weekends since I need the free time to make sure I have everything in my personal life taken care of. I make sure my own dog gets her daily walk in the morning before feeding her then once I get home I take her for a walk again before making dinner for her and myself. And of course playing with her outside in my backyard and letting her lay with me if fireworks goes off since she is deathly afraid of them.

About: I’ve grown up around animals my whole life, and I currently have three dogs and one cat who I love like family. I’ve also cared for several of my aunt’s pets over the years, so I’m very comfortable with different personalities, routines, and needs. I care deeply about animals and their wellbeing, and I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or just keeping them company, I treat every pet as if they were my own. I’d be happy to give your pets the same level of care and attention! As a senior in high school, I keep a consistent routine that makes it easy to fit in pet care. I’m home before the late afternoon most days, which gives me plenty of time for walks, feeding, playtime, and check-ins. On weekends, my schedule is very open, so I am able to spend even more time with pets and be flexible for longer visits or multiple walks. Since I already care for my own pets daily, adding additional pet care fits naturally into my regular routine. If needed, I can adjust my schedule to make sure every pet gets reliable attention and care. When I care for pets in my home, I focus on creating a comfortable environment. I make sure they have all their necessities like water, food, and plenty of play and attention. Since I have three dogs and a cat, I’m used to managing different personalities and making sure everyone gets the type of interaction they need. In a clients home, I’ll ensure to follow their routines closely so the pets feels secure and consistent. I’ll make sure to follow any rules and schedules, and especially make sure to bond with the pet so they feel relaxed while their owner is away!

About: Gentle (or jumpy!) giants are my specialty. I’ve spent the last 15 years sharing my life with Bullmastiffs, Dogues de Bordeaux and Cane Corsos from puppyhood to passing. Medium dogs are great but the big boys and girls are my heart. All ages welcome. My home is 100% set up for dog life. I’m retired from my full-time career but still work very part-time as a CrossFit coach, and also workout daily. Mornings I’m at the gym but home between classes and all afternoon. I have time for potty in the morning and awesome walks in the afternoon. Of course, cuddle and play time included! I have a fully fenced back yard, a dog run for their business, and a big dog bed in my living room. I have plenty of sanitized toys. Basically my home is set up to share with dogs. Unfortunately, my last baby crossed the rainbow bridge last September so I’m taking this opportunity to care for yours.

The level of care and attention my dog received was outstanding, and I could tell he felt right at home the moment we arrived. There’s a warm, calming energy in this home that you can feel immediately and clearly, my pup felt it too. I’m beyond grateful and will definitely be booking again whenever I’m out of town. Thank you so much! Can’t wait to see you all again soon!

Meera was great to work with, very responsive and flexible and sent lots of photos. Took Luna for nice long hikes and was thoughtful enough to ask about allergies before giving any new treats. Would book again!

Briana is great! She has a very calm demeanor and my puppy was obviously immediately comfortable with her. I would definitely ask her to take care of him again.

Emerson is a great sitter. Excellent communication from setting up an initial meet and greet and throughout the stay. He was always very professional in the booking process as well as asking questions about my dog’s routine for his overnight stay. Emerson’s place is extremely dog-friendly and setup to have more than one dog as he has his own very sweet dog. Our dogs got along which was testing during the meet and greet but he had options if they didn’t. My dog enjoyed the long walk and loving care of Emerson’s home. He sent updates and lots of photos. Will definitely book again!

Nikolai and his wife have a lot of experience watching after all breeds and sizes of dogs. My pup stayed with them along a large group of other pups over the holidays and we had an overall good experience with them. I was happy to know that our pup had plenty of friends to be with during his long stay.

Kelsy is literally the best! Theodore had such an amazing time and with all the photos and videos I could tell that he felt super comfortable! For a dog mom going on her first trip away from her pup it was awesome knowing that he was in such great hands?

About: I’d love to care for and walk your pets. Dog park romps, petting sessions, and snuggling provided. I care for them in my home or drop into your home as needed. Experience with large animals, geriatric and young animals. If you are traveling and need a reliable, fun, experienced sitter for your pets, I’d be happy to do a meet and greet and meet you and your pets. I have a 6year old neutered male Australian Sheppard and a 2 year old indoor/outdoor cat. Both are amenable to sharing their space with new furry friends. I'm an active retiree so I have plenty of time for your furry family members. My dog loves to play with new furry friends or chill and give them space. I have a fenced yard and dog door for in and out privileges. I accept dogs that are crated at night or free roaming. Home is well suited to pets.

We can’t recommend Megan and Jenny enough. We booked an extended stay for our pup and they provided us with regular pictures and updates. Our dog came back happy and healthy, and we won’t hesitate to rebook in the future!

Ulunma was a dream come true! My dog was happy to temporarily become part of her family. Ulunma was very responsive to communication from me and regularly sent me pictures of my dog. I was able to relax and enjoy my vacation knowing that my dog was in great hands. I will surely use her again!

What a wonderful experience for our dog Shadow! Bibo’s dog is awesome and got along with our dog really well. Took a minute to adjust and then they were off like siblings! Bibo was communicative and on it. Would definitely book again, and again.

Hy and Arlo were great sitters for our pup during a long vacation. It was his first time staying for a long period of time somewhere unfamiliar and Hy put us right at ease. Right off the bat, they seemed very comfortable with our pup and very confident around dogs generally, and pup took right to exploring their spacious home with a nice, fenced in backyard. Our dog is dog-reactive and they had ideas for best routes to walk him in their neighborhood. During our trip, they were able to use their intuitiveness to troubleshoot some barking at night. When we picked him up, we could tell he took a real liking to Hy while we were gone. Thanks Hy and Arlo for taking such good care of our guy while!

Mary did an awesome job watching our Great Dane while we were out of the country for 10 days. She was also very flexible in allowing us to set up a couple of brief visits in advance to help our dog get comfortable before we left town. I would definitely recommend Mary and request her services again!

Wow, I hit the Rover jackpot with Amanda!! I recently had to board my four month old puppy, Clooney, for the first time, and I was terrified. Amanda made that fear go away instantly. She clearly loves dogs and knows how to take care of them. She was in constant communication - sending regular photo and video updates, and she created such a loving/fun environment for my little baby, I was afraid she wouldn’t want to come home. She has regular pup visitors and lots of friends who also love dogs, so Clooney was showered with attention and play time. Amanda went above and beyond and we will definitely be repeat customers!

Kristen and Ryan were incredibly warm and accommodating when first meeting my small and nervous doggie. They showed their home and clearly demonstrated a level of care and experience that gave me a lot of comfort and would definitely rebook. They were also attentive of how our dogs interacted and made sure they experienced little to no distress. Highly recommend their services 🩷
