“Arryonna was absolutely amazing!! She took great care of our wild puppy for a whole weekend. She updated me daily with pics & videos. We met ahead of time to be sure everything felt comfortable when introducing our pup to her own animals. I can’t say enough good things about our experience”
“I had such a great experience boarding my dog, Skye, over Thanksgiving week. From start to finish, the care was outstanding. Skye immediately felt comfortable, and I could tell he was in good hands the entire time. I received regular updates, including photos and messages, which gave me total peace of mind while I was away. The environment was clean, safe, and welcoming, and it was clear that Skye was treated like part of the family. He came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well-loved. I highly recommend Astrid to anyone looking for reliable, caring, and attentive dog boarding. I’ll definitely book again in the future!”
“This was our first time leaving our dogs with anyone other than a family member, and I was nervous. Angelica quickly put our minds at ease and sent over updates and pictured daily. You could tell the dogs felt like they were also on a vacation for the weekend. She and her family went above and beyond for our furbabies.. You could tell from the pictures that our senior dog looked comfortable and safe, and our younger dog was living her best life with some new walking (and roller blading!) adventures. I'm relieved to have found her and to now have a backup option for my family.”
“Megan and Jenny were fantastic! They communicated multiple updates throughout the day — every day, and multiple times — with photos. They made sure Pancho was well taken care of and enjoyed a variety of activities. They were responsive, attentive, and kind. Drop-off and pick-up were efficient. Highly recommend — we’ll definitely be repeat customers.”
“We are so grateful for the kindness and warmth shown to Minko. They were extremely accommodating, understanding, and genuinely caring throughout the experience. The pictures showed how our pup was treated with such patience and love. Thank you for going above and beyond.”
“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!”
“We left the country and left our German Shepard our love , our precious Lexi with Chad . And while we traveled we felt she was safe,cozy,happy and comfortable even though she missed us . Thank you Chad .”
“Meera was great and professional. She was very communicative and always sent photos of my dog the whole time, I really appreciate it. She was very sweet and gentle with jazz and took her on walks and hikes. I would recommend to anyone”
“Great communication and very understanding of some last minute flight and car troubles. Hudson got back home in a very happy mood :) we’ll definitely trust Suzanne with our pup again!”
“Once again my cats had a great time at Mary’s. I especially like that she has a dedicated room for them with toys and lots of places to climb. Mary took time to send me updates and photos, which I really appreciate. I could tell my cat’s enjoyed themselves, they did not want to go home. Even my scaredy-cat, Warrior who spent most of his time hiding behind her couch seemed right at home when I went to pick them up. Thanks Mary!!!”
“Olivia was amazing! We received updates and photos daily during Milano’s stay. Her home had a great setup with plenty of outdoor space in the yard for the dogs. She is very experienced with working with dogs. We would love to rebook with her next time!”
“Harper, Was an excellent communicator, she sent me pictures of Honey, and videos every day! She kept me posted and it made me feel very happy to see Honey going for a walk and looking happy with her sitter! Thank you Harper, you did a wonderful job! Marisel”
“Rosie had the BEST time at Julia's! She was very communicative, sent lots of pictures and updates. Rosie went on lots of walks with Julia's dog Nova and Julia made sure that she was comfortable given the heat wave - she even gave her a bath! Rosie is an 8 month old Bernedoodle puppy with a LOT of energy so she's not the easiest but we are grateful that she felt at home and in great care.”
“I just started fostering a dog, and I’m so scared to leave him with anyone. My dog just went through major hip surgery, and is on a strict medication schedule along with PT range of motion exercises and a strict bed rest. Beatryx took the time to meet me and ask exactly what I wanted during Pepe’s boarding. They asked all the right questions and assured me that Pepe would be in great care. The day when I had to leave Pepe, I ran into some complications at work and had to reschedule the drop off time. Beatryx was so understanding and flexible about everything. They sent me pictures every hour because they knew how anxious I was. Pepe was so happy that when we went to leave he had to go back and give Beatryx extra kisses. I would definitely leave Pepe with Beatryx again and again!”
“The most caring and attentive to our 17 year old girl. Gave us daily updates with photos and kept us in the loop the entire time. If you need someone to care for your senior fur baby, she's it!”
“My doggies were really well taken care off and I appreciated the consistent updates. Thank you so much for the peace of mind and we’ll see you again in August!”
“Great experience! Peal is such a professional and considerate dog sitter. She went the extra mile to arrange a pick-up and drop-off service so we didn't have to worry about getting back from during our out-of-town weekend. :)”
“We had a last minute trip and Shuvashna was super accomodating and flexible with all our last minute changes. My husband and I got to enjoy our short vacation because we didn’t have to worry if our fur baby is ok. Shuvashna went above and beyond in taking care of Cotton. She also took great photos and kept us updated. We’ll definitely leave Cotton with her and her family again. Cotton looked very happy during her stay. Thank youuuu again for giving our Cotton lots of love and attention ?”

About: I have over 5 years of experience caring for pets as the owner of a Ragdoll cat. Through daily care, I have developed strong knowledge of feeding, grooming, administering basic care, and recognizing signs of illness or discomfort.
“Vanessa is a kind, warm hearted, caring, pet lover and she treated our Nameste with all the TLC that he need in our absence. She did all that we requested, including pictures of our little guy. I would recommend her to others and I would definitely use her again.”
About: Ever since I was young, I have cared for many different kinds of animals and pets, from small ones like turtles and hamsters, to later adopting my first German Shepherd and my first cat. After that, the way I felt about pets completely changed. They were no longer just animals for me to take care of. In my heart, they became companions, and eventually true family members. From a young age, I naturally became interested in learning more about animals, especially cats and dogs. I started researching pet care, behavior, and the knowledge needed to understand them better. I believe every pet is different. As animal's friends, we need to be patient enough to listen, attentive enough to observe, and willing to truly understand their feelings, needs, and personalities. This mindset and these experiences have gradually deepened my passion for the pet industry and led me to step into this field.
“Jason was completely reliable. We trusted him to feed both our cats twice a day, as well as clean the litter box. He followed our instructions and was very respectful and friendly. He even washed the dirty food bowls! We loved getting the updates and photos. Both our cats took to him—our kitten, Stella, totally adored him and looked forward to his visits. What more can you ask for? We’ll be booking him again!”
About: I have had animals all my life and I just LOVE kitties!! I love all animals but I love cats because they’re so darn sassy and cute. My cat Tinsel is my baby and I love her so much…even more than the parents! I will care for your kitties like they are my own. You can guarantee that they will be spoiled with love and treats (if allowed).
“Angelica was lovely! My two cats were fine when I got home and she also helped take care of my chickens. I received updates daily and I didn’t worry about the care for my animals. Will definitely book her again!”
About: I’ve been taking care of animals since I was around 9 years old. Grew up with 5 dogs, rabbits, chickens, and iguanas. Have always had an aptitude for being a dog whisperer and I am an overall active person. I have had 5 litters of puppies growing up and just recently had a litter of white labs. Love going to the beach, going on trail runs, and biking. I specialize in diet and exercise as I was a Kinesiology major in college so I am health conscientious and take great pride in an animals healthy diet. All sorts of healthy treats and specialized exercise for your pets! I took a break from the corporate world so your pet is my priority. I like to take 2 walks per day but I have no problem going for runs on trails. Once in morning and once in the afternoon. Usually feed my dog twice per day after walks so whatever is your preference just let me know! I have a 2 bedroom house with a fenced backyard. Dependent upon your preference I can house your pet inside as I have plenty of space in the living room and spare bedroom. In your home I’d have outmost respect with whatever you are comfortable with. Just let me know whatever routine your canine friend has. I can easily follow instructions and create a schedule for your canine friend.
“Zen took care of my special needs cat, our house and our garden while we were traveling for three weeks. It was such a comfort to know she was there and to get regular updates from her as well. I recommend Zenzele without hesitation!”
“As always Alisha was wonderful with Milo! We came back to a healthy and happy kitty! We got lots of photos while we were away easing our anxiety of leaving our furry baby behind. We'll keep booking her and hope she's always available for us!”
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!
“Charlette was so awesome with my dog Millicent! My dog can be a little stand-offish. Charlette managed to gain Millicent's trust and took such excellent care of my baby. I will definitely be booking with her again. 😊”
About: I am very patient, so if your cat is shy, I will wait for them to trust me. I like to make them feel comfortable around me, and to ensure that I maintain some space between myself and the cat. Of course, I will make sure to feed the cat whenever their owner wants me to. I also like to hold my hand out for the cat to smell me. Usually, the cat allows me to pet them if they are comfortable. In my experience, cars have grown to trust me and enjoy being around me.

About: I grew up in a household where we always had cats and dogs, and it was the best!! Now, I have a sweet dog and our newest addition, a rescue cat. Our home has two lush green lawns where our pets love to play. Because I work from home, I’m available to nurture and care for my pets all day long. I work remotely from home, so I am free all day to walk pets, entertain pets, and take pets out to potty. Because I already own a dog and cat, caring for others’ will align perfectly with my schedule. I have a large fenced yard with a grassy lawn where your fur baby can sun bathe, run, and play as desired. I like to send photos/video/updates in batches at the start and end of the day unless requested otherwise.
“Tatiana walked my dog three times while staying at her house and gave her good exercises. She let my dog playing at the park and hanging out with her ground children. I’m sure that my dog had a good time. She also took good care of her by checking her food, trying to feed her until she got enough. She is a good walker and caregiver as well. I’m happy and comfortable to leave my dog with her.”
“She is a total sweetie and very accommodating! My dog can get shy and anxious around new people and other dogs and Julia took great care of her adapting to what will work best to ease some of my girls anxiety. Sent lots of pictures and updates as well, we already booked her for more overnights as well as drop ins! She is very flexible with her schedule and meeting her clients needs. Thank you Julia!”
“The boys completed their first daycare visit; all went well and they seemed to have enjoyed themselves. Also, appreciated the good communication between Owner and Sitter. We'll be back for another visit soon :)”
“Jasmine and Gabriel watched my 4-year-old dog and 3-month old puppy, while my husband and I were at Disney for the day. They took great care of them, and sent us photos during that time, which was very appreciated. We would let them watch our babies again, thank you guys for watching them!”
“Great experience!! Maisie was excited to go every morning and came home happy and tired. Lots of pictures and video of walks and play sent every day. Rosa is very knowledgeable about dogs and training. I was VERY impressed. AND she was so accommodating with my very early and lengthy surgery work schedule. I will book again and highly recommend her!! 🐾🌟”
“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 have been providing home-style dog boarding and pet care since 2017, with over 9 years of hands-on experience. I also worked for two years at a professional dog boarding and daycare facility in San Francisco and have experience in animal rescue. I am experienced in caring for dogs of all ages and personalities, especially puppies, senior dogs, rescue dogs, and dogs with anxiety or special needs. What sets me apart is my small, home-based care approach. I only accept 1–2 dogs at a time, which allows me to provide full attention, a calm environment, and truly personalized care for each dog. I am patient and attentive, and I adjust my care based on each dog’s personality to help them feel safe, comfortable, and at home. I stay at home most of the time and have a flexible schedule, so caring for pets is a natural part of my daily life. I take dogs out for walks, feed them, and spend time with them every day. I only accept a small number of dogs so I can give each pet plenty of attention and care. Home-style care in Castro Valley. Only 1–2 dogs at a time, never more than a small pack — so every visitor gets personal attention and a calm, consistent routine. Quiet indoor spaces to nap, multiple walks outside each day, and free meet-and-greets before any stay. I've been caring for dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs and more since 2018 and specialize in small and medium dogs under 45 lb.
“Emerson and his family were great sitters for Bernie. Communication was strong, he even sent pictures and a video to let me know how things were going. We meet the day before so that they would be familiar to my dog. It was a good match from the very beginning. We will definitely use them again.”
“Stache had a great time with Golda. He came back to us calm, stress free and happy. That is a sign that he was very comfortable around Golda. We appreciated the frequent updates and photos!”
“We are so lucky to have Briana to watch our pup. Hersh is very comfortable and loves spending time with her! Having peace of mind when you’re away from your fur baby is important to us so Briana is our go-to! We always enjoy the pics/vids she sends of Hershel ♥️”
About: 🧡🐶🐱🧡 As a lifelong animal lover and experienced pet parent, I’m passionate about providing top-notch care for your furry family members. Coming from a family that adores animals, I grew up surrounded by pets—dogs, cats, puppies, a parakeet, and even a turtle!

With me, you can trust that your fur baby will be pampered, cared for, and treated like royalty—because I know firsthand how much they mean to you! 🧡🐶🐱🧡 Any open slots and I am available for your fur baby.

“Terry is beyond what we could ask for in a dog sitter/trainer/caregiver. He is truly the best. We are new to the area and wanted a reliable and caring space for our puppy to stay and he has treated our pup like his own. We are so excited to have Terry as our go-to person for our pup!”
About: Hello! My name is Tabatha and I've taken care of dogs for the past 10 years outside of having dogs myself for my whole life. I’ve used Rover for my dog too, so I understand the level of care pet parents look for! I also foster dogs from local shelters from time to time so I’m used to working with all kinds of pups. I recently started working from home more so I have more availability to hang with your pup. :) I currently work from home on the days I’m available & love to take the dogs out for a romp in the yard or walks in the neighborhood. There’s a doggy door to my fenced backyard so they can also come & go as they please. :) I have a fenced in yard and am familiar with walks and parks in my area. I also love playing and engaging pets with toys and training.
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: Our dogs are the most important beings in our lives. We want to share our oasis with other small dogs. Our goal is to have an animal sanctuary with many kinds of animals, but we are starting with small dogs in our home. We have two small loving dogs, Button, an 11 year-old Lhasa Apso, and Bow, a 9 year-old Doxiepoo. Our dogs have their own nursery, and our canine guests will stay next door in their own space. We have a beautiful garden the dogs will have continual access to, as well as two walks a day--one a longer adventure to Chabot Park, the beach, or a comparable change of scenery. We have always been very stressed about leaving our dogs when we go away, and all the commercial pet resorts seem to be glorified kennels: noisy, spartan, overwhelming, incommensurately expensive for what they offer. We are new to hosting canine guests; the Doge Palace is brand new, so we will only be taking one small dog at a time and keeping our initial rates artificially below market rate. Your dog needs to be trained not to pee or poo in the house and be accustomed to spending time with other dogs. Our guests will sleep in their own bed nestled near our own dogs. In the future, half of the proceeds will be donated to the East Bay SPCA to provide assistance to people who cannot afford veterinary care and Nobody's Perfekt Dogs and Cats Rescue for disabled or elderly dogs. At the moment, we want to help the many abandoned pets in Ukraine, so we will be sending contributions there and to Poland where pets of refugees are in need of help. Jeffrey routinely does pro-bono work through his college counseling company for the SPCA--his regular rates are paid for through a direct donation to the SPCA by the client. We want to grow these donations by contributing half of what we make to two animal care organizations and the rest to our dream of having an animal sanctuary. We have a dedicated dog nursery where they can play, a beautiful large fenced-in, quiet garden oasis, and plenty of toys. The dogs get to get out half a dozen times a day for potty breaks and to enjoy themselves outside. We take them out on a walk at noon and in the early evening. Our canine guests will get a one hour-long outing to a park or beach. Robert is a biotech executive that works from home three days a week, and Jeffrey is a professor who works at home all the time. There will always be somebody home and when we leave the house for more than a couple hours, we bring the dogs with us. I work from home, and I always have time to take the dogs out to the garden and on walks with my dogs, Button and Bow. We have a fenced in garden. The dogs go outside in the garden with me. We also play with toys in the house and go on walks.

About: I’ve taken care of many different breeds and sizes of dogs. I don’t discriminate based on breed or size—I welcome them all! I have hands-on experience with dogs and can administer medication if needed. I’ll also make sure to stick to your pet’s usual routine, providing them with the care and comfort they’re used to. I’m a stay-at-home mom with a 10-year-old daughter and a 1-year-old son. Our beloved family dog was with us for 14 years before recently passing, so I truly understand how important pets are to a family. I’m home most of the time due to my toddler’s nap schedule, which means your dog will have plenty of company and attention throughout the day. We also have a fenced yard, so your pup will have a safe space to play and relax. I’ll walk and feed your dog based on your instructions and do my best to keep them happy, comfortable, and loved. We’re a dog-friendly household with a decent-sized fenced backyard—perfect for play and relaxation.

I do daily short walks around the neighborhood, and I’m happy to offer longer walks or hikes for an additional fee.
“Natalia is great! You can tell she really cares about animals! She shows interest in our pup and sends lots of pictures when she’s with him! It’s nice to know that he is in very capable and caring hands 😊”
“Jason is the best dog-walker I met so far on Rover. He is super nice with Chico, and also super polite and friendly with humans. I really appreciate Jason for accepting my last minute request.”
“Alisha is the best! Very communicative, and Storm is always so happy to see Alisha. We are so happy to have someone like Alisha to help with Storm during the hours we can’t. Really great!”
“Thank God for Marlene! My last minute work trips she always books comes through works it into her schedule. She is the best with my super hyper Belgium malinois puppy. She always provides a pic she even will do clean up service for your puppy and give them water. She's just a solid dog walker!”
About: I love pets! I’ve taken care of family members pets by feeding them or playing with them in their house. I’m unable to do so in my own house, but in others I’m very reliable. I did gig work sometimes on an app called gig work and am out of college for the summer, so I will have plenty of time to care for your fur babies! I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while staying in their familiar environment. I carefully follow feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications if needed, and any special instructions from the owner. For overnight stays, I’ll make sure your pets feel relaxed and keep their normal routine while also respecting and caring for your home. I also love sending updates and photos so owners feel reassured while away.
About: As avid dog lovers with over 15 years of experience, we've cared for various breeds, including our own Shih Tzu who sadly passed away last year. We also frequently looked after our brother’s French Bulldog, who happily reunited with our Shih Tzu, and a Siberian Husky, along with other family dogs. Living in a pet-friendly community with ample grassy areas, your pups will have plenty of space to roam and play. Before your drop-off, we'd love to arrange a meet and greet to acquaint ourselves with you and your furry companions! This is not our first time on Rover. We have been dog-sitting on Rover for about 3 years. The first two years were under a different account with our mom because of age. So we did it together with our parents and were very happy with both animal and human clientele who were just as happy with our services. If you would like to see reviews from then I can send over those Rover Account details as well! We understand the importance of ensuring both you and your beloved pets have peace of mind while you're away, and we're dedicated to providing them with a safe and enjoyable experience under our care! We are currently completely free, accommodating both weekdays and weekends. Our days will be completely catered to the needs of your babies.

Whether it's a weekday, weekend, or holiday, we're here to ensure seamless care for your beloved pets. We offer a fenced backyard patio and expansive grassy areas within our community, and we're happy to provide photos of the surroundings upon request prior to booking. Alternatively, we can arrange a meet and greet so you can explore our dog-friendly and secure neighborhood firsthand. Our area boasts ample walking spaces and provides poop bags for your convenience. For crate-trained dogs, we recommend bringing their crate to ensure their comfort. Additionally, please bring any items that will help your dog feel at ease and secure during their stay. If your dog requires medication, be sure to bring it along. While we do offer some dog treats, feel free to bring your pup's favorites to ensure they feel right at home. Your pets' comfort and safety are our top priorities, and we strive to make their stay as enjoyable as possible!

About: Hi there! I am looking forward to meeting your fur babies! I am a very eager and fun animal professional who enjoys spending time with cats and dogs in both my work and personal life. I graduated with my BS in animal science and now work from home full time. I have owned pets my entire life and seen many of my pets from birth through their life cycle. I love interacting with pets of all sizes, and ages! I am extremely patient and do not at all mind the demanding nature of younger puppies. Additionally, I love being outdoors and there’s no better way to enjoy the day than with a furry friend. Never fret cat parents- there’s no discrimination here! I love cats equally as much! Cats and kittens alike offer so much in the way of affection and companionship. Feline playtime is essential and I am more than capable of keeping all of your kitties happy and entertained! Unfortunately my pups aren’t so fond so I’m limited to drop ins. My current schedule allows me to be available full time to schedule visits and walks. I have a lot of free time and would love to fill it with pet love! I love to play with pets in their preferred style! Getting down with some toys and treats is always on the agenda. Walks, jogs and good snuggles are never denied!
About: Hello All, my name is Jaylen. I am a college graduate who enjoys exercise, spending time outdoors & animals. I’ve owned multiple pets over the course of my life & have dog sitting/walking experience. I’m fun, energetic, patient and outgoing, which is how I’ve always been since I was a child. I hope this introduction serves as a warm welcome to anyone who reads this. Thank you! I currently work for myself, so I’ll have a lot of time to stop by and attend to your pups! I’m free mostly after 5 throughout the week, but sometimes also before. I have a nice house with a lot of land and a fenced yard. It is very accommodating for pets, good neighborhood and very nice routes to walk.
About: I’ve spent three years caring for dogs through walking and sitting, providing safe, loving, reliable support tailored to each pup’s personality, routine, and comfort needs. With lots of free time in my daily routine, I’m able to focus fully on each dog I care for, providing steady attention, enrichment, and a peaceful, supervised environment. I provide a safe, reliable home where dogs can relax and feel supported. With frequent potty breaks, daily walks, and attentive supervision, your pup stays comfortable, happy, and well‑monitored.
About: Hello! My name is Tabatha and I've taken care of dogs for the past 10 years outside of having dogs myself for my whole life. I’ve used Rover for my dog too, so I understand the level of care pet parents look for! I also foster dogs from local shelters from time to time so I’m used to working with all kinds of pups. I recently started working from home more so I have more availability to hang with your pup. :) I currently work from home on the days I’m available & love to take the dogs out for a romp in the yard or walks in the neighborhood. There’s a doggy door to my fenced backyard so they can also come & go as they please. :) I have a fenced in yard and am familiar with walks and parks in my area. I also love playing and engaging pets with toys and training.
“Emerson is great with my dog and he reads your dog personally with lots of knowledge. Emerson is a very good communicator and very timely with his appointments, which I Rey appreciate.my dog doesn't accept some people on the first meet & Greet, but he liked Emerson👍”
About: Been the primary source of training and exercise for my family’s dogs since I was 13. With training large breed dogs, specifically Rottweilers and various rescues. I have a lot of experience with larger willful breeds, but also have had a few years of smaller fluffier breeds like French poodles. I am currently the primary caregiver of my son and so taking him and Sierra for walks and play dates is ver much part of my day. I have a fenced in yard for my 3 year old Rottweiler but take longer walks along Lake Chabot on the regular. She is an inside dog and has been trained to be very friendly as I have two elderly cats who are decidedly not friendly towards her. That said when we are not home I have seen the cats snuggle the dog via the doggy cam!
“Dora was wonderful to work with! She took great care of my dog Sassy, feeding her dinner and taking her for a walk on the days I needed to work late. She was very responsive to my messages and sent pictures of the walks. I would highly recommend her to care for your pet. Thanks Dora!”

“I had such a great experience boarding my dog, Skye, over Thanksgiving week. From start to finish, the care was outstanding. Skye immediately felt comfortable, and I could tell he was in good hands the entire time. I received regular updates, including photos and messages, which gave me total peace of mind while I was away. The environment was clean, safe, and welcoming, and it was clear that Skye was treated like part of the family. He came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well-loved. I highly recommend Astrid to anyone looking for reliable, caring, and attentive dog boarding. I’ll definitely book again in the future!”
“Megan and Jenny were fantastic! They communicated multiple updates throughout the day — every day, and multiple times — with photos. They made sure Pancho was well taken care of and enjoyed a variety of activities. They were responsive, attentive, and kind. Drop-off and pick-up were efficient. Highly recommend — we’ll definitely be repeat customers.”
“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!”
“We left the country and left our German Shepard our love , our precious Lexi with Chad . And while we traveled we felt she was safe,cozy,happy and comfortable even though she missed us . Thank you Chad .”
“Meera was great and professional. She was very communicative and always sent photos of my dog the whole time, I really appreciate it. She was very sweet and gentle with jazz and took her on walks and hikes. I would recommend to anyone”
“Olivia was amazing! We received updates and photos daily during Milano’s stay. Her home had a great setup with plenty of outdoor space in the yard for the dogs. She is very experienced with working with dogs. We would love to rebook with her next time!”
“Rosie had the BEST time at Julia's! She was very communicative, sent lots of pictures and updates. Rosie went on lots of walks with Julia's dog Nova and Julia made sure that she was comfortable given the heat wave - she even gave her a bath! Rosie is an 8 month old Bernedoodle puppy with a LOT of energy so she's not the easiest but we are grateful that she felt at home and in great care.”
“I just started fostering a dog, and I’m so scared to leave him with anyone. My dog just went through major hip surgery, and is on a strict medication schedule along with PT range of motion exercises and a strict bed rest. Beatryx took the time to meet me and ask exactly what I wanted during Pepe’s boarding. They asked all the right questions and assured me that Pepe would be in great care. The day when I had to leave Pepe, I ran into some complications at work and had to reschedule the drop off time. Beatryx was so understanding and flexible about everything. They sent me pictures every hour because they knew how anxious I was. Pepe was so happy that when we went to leave he had to go back and give Beatryx extra kisses. I would definitely leave Pepe with Beatryx again and again!”
“The most caring and attentive to our 17 year old girl. Gave us daily updates with photos and kept us in the loop the entire time. If you need someone to care for your senior fur baby, she's it!”
“My doggies were really well taken care off and I appreciated the consistent updates. Thank you so much for the peace of mind and we’ll see you again in August!”
“Meghan watched our 13 year old beagle when I went into labor. She came and picked her up and dropped her off the very next day. She was very flexible considering this situation and our dog probably enjoyed staying with her more than our house with a baby! Highly recommend!”
“Mary is fantastic! She takes good care of Stella and takes her for long walks everyday. Mary follows all of the necessary diet and medicine instructions, and keeps me updated on my baby while I'm away. She has two lovely dogs herself, who are like a little pack that my dog can be a part of. I have already booked with Mary twice and will definitely do so again.”
“Robert was great as usual even accommodating us for a last minute long stay since our other sitter did not work out. loves visiting with Robert. Robert sent us regular updates and pictures and we had peace of mind knowing he was well taken care of.”
“Mya was amazing with Luna! She really cared for her, especially when Luna developed an unexpected hot spot — she kept me informed and made sure Luna was comfortable. I always appreciated the updates and videos she sent, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. She clearly knows what she’s doing with dogs and treated Luna like her own. Overall, I had a really positive experience and would definitely recommend her.”
“Alex kept my golden retriever for a week and left me feeling GREAT about the boarding. From the daily pix & videos, it seemed that Alex integrated Mika into her family life completely, even having her at their backyard easter egg hunt! Mika got lots of play time & tons of petting, played with her daughters at the playground across the street, and did her napping right under Alex's feet when she was working. Such a great feeling to know your dog is well cared for when away. Thanks so much Alex!”
