“Minh is so nice and accommodating. Very easy to work with. This was our first time using Rover and we could not be more pleased with the experience. She sent us picture updates regularly, she provided a safe and clean environment for our dogs. We could not be happier. Thank you, Minh!”
About: I care for a small group at a time so each dog gets plenty of supervision, play, and rest. I’m very patient with shy, anxious, and senior dogs, and I’m experienced with puppies—including potty routines, basic manners, and crate training support. I pay close attention to each pet’s routine, energy level, and comfort, and I adjust care as needed. Safety and communication are a top priority for me, and I always keep owners updated so they can feel confident and at ease while they’re away. My schedule is built around feeding times, potty breaks, play sessions, walks, and rest periods to make sure each pet gets consistent care and attention throughout the day. I work from home, which allows me to closely supervise pets, keep them on their normal routines, and adjust care based on their energy level or needs. This consistency helps pets feel comfortable, relaxed, and well cared for while their owners are away. I follow each pet’s routine to help them feel comfortable and stress-free. In my home, pets enjoy supervised playtime, regular potty breaks, walks, and safe play in my fenced backyard, along with plenty of rest. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow all instructions closely and provide updates so owners can feel confident their pet is well cared for.
“This was our puppy’s very first time being boarded, and I was honestly quite nervous at the beginning. Queenie&Yu-Chieh made the whole experience so easy and gave us so much peace of mind. Communication was great from the start — she asked thoughtful questions about his routine, food, and quirks, and throughout the stay she sent lots of photos and updates so we always knew how he was doing. Our puppy is still young and full of energy, which definitely means extra work (potty breaks, training, supervision, etc.), but she handled him with so much patience and kindness. Her home is clean, safe, and very dog-friendly, and her own dog Summer was gentle and welcoming with our boy. When we picked him up, he was happy, relaxed, and clearly very comfortable with her and her home. We’re very grateful to have found Queenie & Yu-Chieh and would absolutely book with her again. I highly recommend her to anyone, especially if you have a dog boarding for the first time — she truly made us feel safe and well taken care of.”
“Jocelyn was a wonderful companion for our dog Norman. He took to her right away and seemed immediately comfortable in her home. He had a spacious yard to explore and a warm sunny porch to nap on. We got regular updates and felt at ease knowing he was well cared for. We will happily reach out to Jocelyn again for sitting services.”
“We just picked up our 10 years old border collie Lucky after a 6 day 5 nights stay. It is a pity the highest rating is only 5 stars, to Lucky, Juanyi's service is 10 stars. My border collie does not like strangers in the beginning, but he allows Juanyi pet him in just a few hours. I could see from many pictures and videoes that my boy enjoys the friendship from Kaka, Panda and other lovely guests, also enjoys the love from Juanyi. I feel my boy is having a great vacation of his own too. I always hesitate to sign up family vacation because find a reliable dog sitter is often a difficult task, the last 3 dog sitter we used were moved or no longer offer service. I am glad we found Juanyi and the experience is so great. I read every review when i look for any kind of service, and by the time we book the service, there was only one review, to be honest i was a bit uncertain. During the met and greet, we walked around the neighborhood together, I was so glad Lucky quickly developped friendship with Kaka and Panda, and the drop off session was also great, which allow me to join the family vacation. We will definitely book with Juanyi again for our future vacations, and recommend to every pet parents, my Lucky was treated like Juanyi's own, yours will too!❤️”
“Kimberly has taken care of my golden retriever puppy as if he was part of her family. Daily communication made me feel comfortable with where my puppy was staying. Very professional experience makes me recommend Kimberly for any of her services. Thank you Kimberly for your wonderful care.”
“We couldn’t be happier with the care Xeno received! Boris and Olga sent great updates and photos that kept us at ease. Xeno came back super happy and clearly well-rested—we’ll definitely be booking with them again.”
“We love leaving our dogs with Pissamas knowing she cares and treats them so well! We also enjoy seeing the pictures and videos she takes of them during their stay!”
“Juliana took great care of our Frenchies even hand feeding one of then who is such picky a picky eater. She also sent pictures so we were able to see that they were enjoying themselves there.”
“Leo was so happy to go back, which says everything! They took great care of him with timely updates, regular walks, and lots of playtime. The yard is nice and very dog-friendly, giving the dogs a comfortable space to play. Luna and Reki are super friendly and started playing with Leo right away, which made him feel at ease instantly. We really appreciated the photos and updates — it kept us completely stress-free knowing how his day was going. They were also very attentive to his food routine and followed all our specific instructions. We’ll definitely be booking again. Thank you for taking such good care of Leo!”
“I really want to compliment and thank Jen for the outstanding job she did watching my dog, Pumpkin. I had never left Pumpkin with anyone but family before so I was one very nervous doggy mama. Jen’s patient, calm demeanor, and very thorough knowledge of pet care and behavior was comforting. We did a meet and greet prior to the stay and Jen asked me a lot of questions about Pumpkins behaviors and habits. I found it very reassuring that she actually wanted to know about my dog. I am back home with Pumpkin now. Pumpkin was happy and well cared for. I would highly recommend Jen and will definitely use her in the future. Thanks, Jen, for a wonderful experience for both Pumpkin and myself!”
“Sepia took wonderful care of our dog! She’s incredibly loving and always goes above and beyond to make sure our pup is happy and well cared for. She regularly sends updates and adorable pictures, which really put my mind at ease knowing our bundle of joy was in such good hands. Thank you so much, Sepia, for taking such great care of Hugo!”
“TR is TeRrific!!!! She takes great care of my cat and is very responsible. She always sends me pics and videos too. I have used her twice and will use her again every time i go out of town. Thanks TR!!!!!!”

Rachel follows all the instructions, is very friendly, kind nd loving , nd t the end that’s what matters most. It’s home away from home. Thank you Rachel. Will certainly use your help again..”
“Just like everyone’s fear specially your if you ever trust someone to care your family member. No doubt Leah is very kind, loving to my little fur (Hershey). She keep us posted everyday just like having a dairy for our dog. She will make sure that we have a piece of mind not to worry about our dog when we are away. I will definitely recommend her to anyone who loves their fur. Big Thank You Leah and her partner as well.”
“As always, Jiapeng and his family have taken amazing care of our girl Yuffie. They always made sure that Yuffie was comfortable, had plenty of potty breaks, and got to spend a lot of time playing with them and their dog Pika. We always appreciate the photos, videos and updates on how she’s doing throughout the day. We always know Yuffie is in excellent care with them. We will always book again in thru future!”
“We had a really great experience with Son while he took care of our dog, Bru. From day one, Son was super responsive and easy to communicate with, which made being away from Bru a lot less stressful. He checked in with us every day to let us know how Bru was doing — how his mood was, whether he was eating properly, and how he was settling in. As a pet parent, those little updates mean everything. Son was also very thoughtful and respectful about Bru’s routine. If there was ever a situation involving new food or any change, he always asked or kept us informed first, which we really appreciated. He was also incredibly accommodating, coordinating smoothly with a friend of ours for Bru’s drop-off and pickup, along with all his things. That flexibility made things so much easier for us. Most importantly, we could tell Bru was comfortable and well cared for. We truly loved the way Son looked after him and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Son to anyone looking for a caring and reliable pet boarding option. We’ll definitely be reaching out to him again in the future.”
“Malika was an amazing cat sitter for Gigi! Gigi is very shy and cautious around new people, but Malika was very patient and knew how to help her feel comfortable. Gigi is also a 16 year old senior cat with a more specific feeding routine, and Malika followed everything carefully. She sent regular updates a few times a day which gave me a lot of peace of mind. Malika was communicative and very knowledgeable about cats. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable pet sitter!”

“Leilani was amazing -- we would hire her again in a heart beat. Super on time and went above & beyond on communicating with us actively on how our kitty was doing. Even when our kitty had a throw up incident on Leilani's last day with her, Leilani cleaned it up + was very gracious about it. Thank you!”
“Kaylee was amazing. She made my trip so much easier, knowing my fur babies were take care of… not just fed and watered… but also loved on and played with. I highly recommend Kaylee as a pet sitter!”

“Aivy was an amazing cat sitter who stood up to the plate with all my crazy detailed instructions and even took additional time to repair the litter robot when it malfunctioned. I appreciated her super fast communication too. My funny cats warmed up to her immediately. Aivy is now officially on my list of the trusted cat sitters who I will for sure hire in the future when needed.”

She was so patient and kind (even when the bunnies made a big mess!) She also provided thorough updates, lots of photos, and sweet notes that we really appreciated. I’d highly recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter! Thank you so much Catherine!”
About: I've been caring for pets since I was young and completed a veterinary assisting program in high school. I also gained experience working at a dog grooming salon and a dog kennel that I currently still work at. I’m available most days of the week, preferably in the evenings when it’s cooler during hot days. On colder days, I have more flexibility throughout the day. I’m simply looking to earn some extra income. I will be able to walk their furry friends when needed and will love spending time with them and even playing with them to burn some energy.
About: I have always had a strong passion for animal care and have gained hands-on experience through caring for cats and other animals in a home environment. Growing up with cats has taught me the importance of responsibility, patience, and providing consistent care to ensure their health and well-being. I treat every animal, including stray animals, with the same compassion and attention I would provide to my own pets. My experience includes maintaining fresh water supplies, monitoring food levels, providing enrichment through playtime, and creating a clean, safe, and comfortable environment that supports both their physical and emotional needs.
About: although I love dogs and I’ve had many dogs throughout my life, I’m focusing on cats right now! I’ve discovered that it can be hard to find a good cat sitter and I want to provide care for kitties. I absolutely love cats and understand them very well. I’ve had a cat ( or two or three…) in my life ever since I was five years old! I really understand their temperament ! Just a little backstory, during the pandemic, two little kittens came to live with us, and then a mama kitty with her two kittens also joined our family. ( so that’s right we have quite a few cats living with us! ) I love taking care of them, making sure they have clean litter boxes, fresh food and water, brushing their coats, and playing with them! I enjoy cats because they each have such unique personalities! ( Not to mention the fact that they’re all super cute! ) I’ve been trained by Bay Area Cat, ( a cat rescue organization ) so I am able to help stray cats and kittens so they can be spay/neutered, and socialized, so they can eventually be adopted . I would be more than happy to help you take care of your sweet cat!

“This was Emma’s first Rover booking, and she did a great job! She was very accommodating when we had to make some last minute scheduling changes, which I really appreciated. Homer came home happy and healthy, and I felt comfortable leaving him in her care. I’d definitely book with Emma again and wish her all the best as she continues with Rover!”

“Melissa & Tommy are genuinely such good to honest animal loving people. We are so appreciative of their patience and calm demeanor around our furbabies. Our furbabies are a lot to handle. One of them has high anxiety to loud sounds, movements, strangers and the little one is a snuggly rascal. But Melissa & Tommy handled and cared for them with so much love. We are grateful. They also provided tons of updates. We appreciate that a lot! Thank you so much!!”

About: With over 10 years of hands-on pet care experience, I have developed a strong passion for providing safe, loving, and reliable care for animals of all sizes and personalities.

I also provide companionship to reduce stress and separation anxiety while keeping the home tidy and secure. Communication is very important to me, so I provide regular updates and photos to give pet parents peace of mind knowing their pets are happy and in trusted hands.
About: For most of my High School education I had watched The Dog Whisperer religiously, which helped to ingrain my love for animals especially towards canines. I slowly began to pursue fields in which I could help surround myself with animals and careers pertaining to animals. I started after high school and became a volunteer at the San Jose Animal Care Services located on Monterey Rd. in San José. I was working on the side while going to school as I volunteered to help compensate the volunteer hours. As a designated dog walker I was introduced to small toy dogs down to 4 pounds up to larger breeds ranging upwards of 100 pounds. I am located in a single-family residence in a suburban enclave in Evergreen. We have a fenced backyard with lots of space to stretch out and enjoy the outdoors. The local elementary school is a 5-minute walk away, featuring its own walking trail and a fenced grass area. Animal care is my second nature. I can understand body signs and cues when it comes to how an animal is feeling and the best way to approach them. I've held up against big dogs all the way down to the little ones. Each animal is unique. The most important thing is love and respect.

About: Your dog’s vacation starts when you leave! I’ve been my family’s designated dog sitter for the past 8 years—and I wouldn’t have it any other way. I’ve cared for my grandma’s Maltese while she’s spent months in Mexico, and I’ve also loved taking care of my sister’s German Shepherd and Goldendoodle. Big or small, fluffy or goofy, I treat every dog like family (because that’s exactly what they are). Expect lots of love, playtime, and a few extra compliments. Fair warning though…your dog might come back with a new favorite human 🙌 Currently in between jobs so definitely don’t mind spending my free time with dogs. Could do part time or full time if needed right now. I’m big on cleanliness indoors or outdoors, fitness/fun activities since I’m a fit person myself, and just enjoying quality time with any dogs
About: I’ve cared for family pets for years and have experience with dogs of different sizes and personalities. I also have two dogs of my own, so I understand the importance of providing pets with love, patience, exercise, and a consistent routine. Whether it’s going for walks, playtime, feeding, or simply giving them plenty of attention, I’ll treat your pets with the same care and respect that I give my own. My goal is to make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away. I work part-time, so I’m available most mornings and early afternoons until 2:00 PM for dog walks.

About: I have a great love for dogs, no matter what shape or size. I have grown up living in a household with small to medium dogs and other furry animals. I understand how much pets can affect you in a good way. I have had the privilege of taking care of older dogs, dogs with medication and even a puppy. Recently, in past two years, i have had the opportunity to also care of a cat plus a big beautiful german Shepard. My goal is to ensure and comfort your dog while you are away. I will keep the dog(s) on their regular, training routine to the specific detail you tell me. I do community service part time which is regular in my life. I am willing to have a fixed or flexible schedule for short-term jobs. Not available Sunday mornings or Tuesday nights for meet and greet. My goal is to keep your pet safe and comfortable while at the same time keep your home just as you had left it before your vacation. I had a maltipoo. She was loud when you first meet her but really shy. Also friendly enough to hold on to. She is potty trained and knows some commands. With other dogs she gets a long with them, and she just needs to warm up to them because of shyness. I kept her on dog food not human food and she weighs less than 10 lbs. She would run around and play with the younger dogs but also mellow down with the older dogs.

“We had a really great experience with Son while he took care of our dog, Bru. From day one, Son was super responsive and easy to communicate with, which made being away from Bru a lot less stressful. He checked in with us every day to let us know how Bru was doing — how his mood was, whether he was eating properly, and how he was settling in. As a pet parent, those little updates mean everything. Son was also very thoughtful and respectful about Bru’s routine. If there was ever a situation involving new food or any change, he always asked or kept us informed first, which we really appreciated. He was also incredibly accommodating, coordinating smoothly with a friend of ours for Bru’s drop-off and pickup, along with all his things. That flexibility made things so much easier for us. Most importantly, we could tell Bru was comfortable and well cared for. We truly loved the way Son looked after him and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Son to anyone looking for a caring and reliable pet boarding option. We’ll definitely be reaching out to him again in the future.”

She went on adventures with them throughout the Bay Area and coastal regions. She had so much fun that it was like sending a 12 year old to summer camp! I would highly recommend Son and her family to take care of your little dog or a big dog when the time comes. They are also my friends now.”

“Jeanette was great with our Laci, especially since she is extra spoiled and always expects to be the center of attention. From the first meeting, it was clear that Jeanette has a warm, nurturing personality and she quickly put Laci at ease. Jeanette sent photos from Laci’s time with her, which also reassured us that Laci was in good hands. We will definitely use Jeanette when we need a sitter for Laci again.”
