“Natalie and Braden are wonderful dogsitters. No matter how much time has passed since Millie last saw them, the moment we take her out of the car she knows exactly where she is, runs straight to their door, and gets so excited to see them. That says everything about how caring and loving they are with her. She is always very well taken care of and comes home happily tired from walks and activities. They are fantastic, and we would recommend them to anyone looking for trustworthy, attentive care for their dog!”
“Susan is a Terrific pet sitter! She kept us updated daily with pictures and highlights. She is an experienced dog lover who we felt very comfortable with watching our aging Frenchie🐶”
“We were very grateful to find someone that loves dogs and has a passion for caring for them when their owners need to be away. Our dog was safe & well taken care of. Thank you Monisa & David!”
“Kimberly was a great sitter for my dog, Friday. I was worried about how anxious my dog would get during Halloween, but she made sure he was comfortable and in a quiet space. I really appreciate her updates and the videos of our dogs playing together. Thanks, Kimberly!”
“Yu-shu and family were AMAZING! We got a ton of updates complete with pictures and narratives every day during our vacation, and Leche was always so happy and loved, playing with other people and dogs! It was a wonder how Leche wanted to come back home to us! I hope Leche can stay with your family again, because she loved it, and we had zero worries or concerns about how she was doing. Thank you so much!”
“Shipra took great care of my dog Casey. She tried to understand her by asking about her detailed routine ahead of time. She genuinely cared about her and made sure she ate properly and asked questions so she was well taken care of. I received update photos and felt assured Casey was comfortable and enjoyed her stay under her care. I can't thank enough for Shipra and her lovely family for giving Casey a home away from home.”
“Kona had a fun time with An and her family! We appreciated the many photos and videos she shared of Kona’s visit. She took good care of Kona. We would absolutely book with An again!”
“Caramel loved her time with Ash! She was extremely well taken care of during our 9 day trip, and we got daily photo & video updates of how she was doing. The whole experience, from initial meeting to final pickup, was perfect. It felt like Caramel got her own little mini vacation, hanging out with new friends and playing in a fun new location. We will certainly be back during future trips!”
“Jennifer was amazing with our two boys Oakley and Wiley. I received daily pictures and Jennifer was unfazed by Oakley's high energy nature. After we got home, our boys acted completely normal and not exhausted - a sign to me that they were not stressed while staying in her home. We will definitely be reaching out to Jennifer again when we go out of town.”
“I'm very happy to have found Robert here on Rover! He is a wonderful dog host. I can tell that he gave our puppy a great deal of love, care and attention. Our puppy had other furry friends he played with during his stay and he enjoyed his time so much that he was pleasantly tired when I brought him home! Robert is very quick to respond and he sends updates via pictures/videos. Will definitely rebook with Robert again.”
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with over 15 years of dog walking and sitting experience. I’ve worked for a professional dog-walking company, leading both neighborhood walks and adventurous hikes. I’ve also cared for my own dog with epilepsy, giving medication three times a day and providing gentle, patient care. We’re a warm, loving little family who adore all kinds of animals. I live with my husband and our 4-year-old son, who was born into a home with a cat and dog and has grown up loving animals and nature. At home, we don’t currently have a dog or cat, just fishes and a frog 🐠🐸. After losing our beloved dog, we haven’t been ready to adopt another one, which means your pup will get all the love and attention they deserve while staying with us! I can care for your dog at your home or mine, in any weather, for walks, hikes, playtime, or full-time sitting. I can also provide care for cats while you’re away. Your furry friends will be treated with love, patience, and plenty of attention — maybe even spoiled just a little. 😉 I currently work only 2–3 hours a day during weekdays, so I have plenty of free time to care for your little one. I’m flexible on weekends as well, which means I can easily adjust my schedule for walks, playtime, or drop-in visits. Your furry baby will always get my full attention and care. I completely understand how it feels to miss your little one when you’re away — I’ve been there too. That’s why I’ll keep you updated with frequent photos and messages, so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and well cared for.
“Lili and Matt did such a wonderful job watching our pooch. A+! Lili provided us with photos and video updates. Gave our dog (Koa) so much care and attention. I would definitely use them again. Thank you Lili & Matt.”
“The family clearly loves dogs and their dog Prince is true to his name. He buddied up with our lab so quickly at the meet and greet and they played the entire time. Our dog was so excited to visit after that one meeting. It’s clear they have been doing this a long time and we will definitely be going back !”
“Sameer, Reyna, and their kids are pretty much Helo's second family! By now, he knows the drill. This recent visit we dropped him off and Helo just walked casually into their house, laid down and had a face like "I'm in good hands, you can go now." We always feel at ease when we drop off our pup because we know he is very well taken care of. Helo comes home happy, well-played, and always excited to come back next time. I try to book well in advance because Sameer and his family get booked up so fast since everyone knows they are amazing dog lovers and care takers! Sameer and Reyna, we will forever stay and be your repeat customers!”
“Our dog Marley’s stay with Maya was great! Maya kept us very well informed and sent lots of pictures. Maya was very accommodating and flexible when our travel plans unexpectedly changed. We will happily leave Marley in Maya’s care again in the future. 😊🐾”
“Keelin took amazing care of our two pups while we were away. It was clear they were having the best time from the frequent updates and adorable pictures she sent—our dogs always looked happy and well cared for. They got plenty of walks, playtime, and love, and we felt completely at ease knowing they were in such great hands. Thank you Keelin!”
“Such a sweet person!! Carolyn went above and beyond to help us with our Sadie - she was our flower girl at our wedding and Carolyn was willing to come to the venue and get Sadie after our ceremony. She’s got a golden heart for animals! Thank you so much!!!”

“100% outstanding service from Amy. She is an animal lover at its core, much like us. She will look after your babies as if they are your own. Highly recommend her for all your pet needs.”
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with plenty of experience caring for cats. I’ve cared for my own cats and many others, providing feeding, litter care, playtime, cuddles, and gentle, patient attention. I’m comfortable administering medication if needed and always make sure each cat feels safe and loved. I can care for your cat at your home so they can stay comfortable in their own space. Your furry friend will be treated with love, patience, and plenty of attention — maybe even spoiled just a little. 😉 I’ll also send updates and photos so you can relax while you’re away.
About: I have had been around dogs since I was a baby! My family calls me Dr. Doolittle because I've always been so good with animals. I have taken care of animals overnight for almost 8 years for family, friends, and coworkers. If preferred, I love to bring them along on hikes and runs or just give them the cuddles they well deserve. I am a full-time student but am fully remote! This gives me plenty of free time and availability to give potty breaks, go on walks, hikes, runs, or just spend some quality time with your doggo. At others' homes, I am very respectful and considerate of people's boundaries and treat the home with full respect. I am there to keep your dogs company and show them love until you get back.
About: When I was younger I always thought being a single crazy cat lady was insane until I grew older and realized that is the dream😂 I absolutely adore cats they are definitely my favorite animal in the world. Whether your cat is friendly, shy, or spicy I know how to handle all. My friends call me the cat whisperer whenever we go out and I manage to pet the cat no one can pet. Even though I don’t have my own cat at this moment, I will always treat your cat like my own 😇
“Darcy was excellent. I appreciated her availability for a meet and greet beforehand, to figure out the details for her stay. She was easy to work with, professional, and clearly has a love for animals. My husband and I were able to sleep easy knowing Darcy was keeping an eye on our cats. We especially appreciated that she was able to hold down the fort when we were unexpectedly without cell service at the event we were attending. She was able to figure things out, and there were zero issues even though I was unable to answer her questions. I would have no hesitation asking Darcy back or recommending her to a friend. Thank you, Darcy!”
“Mitchell did an amazing job taking care of my cats. He is extremely responsible, reliable, and genuinely caring. He followed all feeding instructions carefully, kept everything clean and organized, and made sure my cats were comfortable and well taken care of. He also provided timely updates and photos, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away. My cats can be shy, but they warmed up to him quickly, which really shows his patience and love for animals！”
About: I’m the go-to cat sitter for friends and neighbors, providing reliable care through drop-in visits and extended stays. I have experience caring for cats with very different personalities and comfort levels, including shy, anxious, and dominant cats., indoor and outdoor cats Three of the cats I currently care for are Ceres (indoor cat), Sedna (outdoor cat) and Maki (kitten). Ceres is extremely skittish and sensitive to noise or sudden movement, while Sedna is more confident and assertive. Caring for them has strengthened my ability to read feline body language, respect boundaries, and create a calm, safe environment tailored to each cat’s needs. I’ve looked after Maki since he was 1 month old and helped the three cats integrate together. I handle feeding, playtime, litter box cleaning, and daily care with patience and attention to detail. My goal is always to make cats feel comfortable, secure, and cared for while their owners are away. I prioritize communication, and make it a priority to provide frequent updates and photos of your cat(s). I understand my profile is new, so I don’t have as many testimonials. I have done work exchanges in the past on Workaway and WWOOF, and have attached those reviews as screenshots. You can also request references from me.
“Cigdem took care of our little smokey as if he was hers!!! She sent me morning and evening pics and gave Smokey the best of cuddles!!! So refreshing to know he was in such good hands. Highly recommend ❤️❤️❤️❤️”
“We booked a sitter through Rover for the first time for a long time period and were a little nervous about leaving Missy alone, but Xiaoyu was absolutely wonderful. From the very beginning, she made sure Missy felt comfortable, loved, and well cared for. Xiaoyu followed all the instructions we discussed and truly went above and beyond to make sure Missy didn’t miss us. After just a few visits, it was clear that Missy looked forward to seeing her, which gave us so much peace of mind. I would highly recommend Xiaoyu to anyone looking for a dedicated, trustworthy, and caring sitter—and a true friend—for their fur baby. 🐾💛”
“Emily is a great catsitter & my cat was very comfortable with her. Emily took care every detail and was communicative with updates, photos, and even a video. My kitty is in good hands with Emily!”
“Christina communicates well setting up and during drop-in visits. I know what is happening in detail. She took good care of my fur babies making sure they had playtime, love and eating well.”
“I’ve left my sweet boy with Pashmina twice and every time I feel confident he’s going to have a great time. He gets along well with her cat and Pashmina shares many pictures and videos during his stay so that I know how my cat is doing and feel comfortable. Whenever I go out of town, I plan to book with Pashmina.”
“Isabel was wonderful and took great care of my kitties. She even helped get my automatic litter box working again when it decided to stop midway through our trip. She went above and beyond and I highly recommend!”
“Ping was great with RB. She’s very kind and gentle. Her pup Cherry is also very sweet and well behaved. I think it’s a bonus for RB to have canine company. Ping sent photos, was able to accommodate last minute request and very responsive. Thanks Ping and Cherry!”
“Wenyuan took great care of my cat, Forest. She sent lots of pictures and updates, and took the time to pet and play with him. Forest seemed to really enjoy Wenyuan’s company. I would definitely ask her to watch him again in the future.”
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I've been caring for dogs and cats for as long as I can remember. Our 5 children have grown and living on their own, so I currently have my sweet 2 dogs, Chica & Luna, who keep life fun, active, and full of love. In addition to my experience with pets, I've taught preschool and first grade, where safety, patience, and attentive care were always top priorities. I offer dog walks, drop-in visits, house sitting, and can comfortably administer oral medications when needed. I truly enjoy caring for pets of all personalities, whether they're social and energetic, calm and relaxed, or a little nervous and shy. With a gentle demeanor and a strong understanding of animal body language, I take the time to build trust and help every pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you're away. During my first year of retirement, pet care fits naturally into my flexible schedule, allowing me to provide reliable, attentive care while enjoying creating fine art on the side. I provide attentive care for pets in their own home, helping maintain their normal routine, comfort, and security. I can assist with feeding, walks, playtime, companionship, oral medications, and keeping pets happy and relaxed while their owners are away.
“Tatyanan was incredible kind and supportive throughout the whole process. I had never used Rover, let alone a pet sitter. Before even booking with her she came to meet my cats and I and walk me through the process. While I was out of state for my fiance's surgery, she went above and beyond to make sure that my cats were taken care of, regularly sending pictures, and that the place stayed clean from pet messes. I greatly appreciate Tatyana and would absolutely book her again! Thank you Tatyana!!”
About: My background working for a veterinarian and medical animal rescue enables me to provide quality care for cats of all ages. I love getting to know each of their personalities and always respect their boundaries. You can rely on me to provide peace of mind while you’re away as I have been a cat sitter for 10 years. I’m more than happy to provide updates, especially for those extended trips!
“Bailey was great and Lanikai loved her :). She sent pics to us and we felt very comfortable that Lanikai was in great hands. We’ll definitely have Bailey watch Lanikai again!”

About: Growing up, I always had a lot of love for animals and had many different pets from fishes, birds, guinea pig, and dogs. I had a toy poodle for 14 years before she passed and growing up as an only child, she was my best friend and more than a dog. Now, although I don’t have any pets of my own (eventually will!) I love taking care of dogs of my friends and family! I started taking care of dogs around the end of my college years and occasionally take dogs in need for care and more. I know a lot of parks around Pleasanton and tri-valley as I grew up here and would love to take your dogs on a walk! I am also available to check in on your fur baby whenever you need me to. I’m currently working part time, and have plenty of flexibility in my schedule to give your pets the time, love, and attention they need. I make sure to plan my day around walks, playtime, and check-ins so that your furry friend always feels cared for and never rushed. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priority. I create a calm and loving environment, and I’m attentive to each pet’s unique needs and routines. Whether at my home or yours, I make sure they’re safe, happy, and never left unattended for long. I’m comfortable with crates if needed, giving medications, and providing plenty of playtime, cuddles, and walks. You can feel confident knowing your furry friend is in caring, reliable hands.
“Ash and her family are delightful. Bailey couldn't wait to get to her door in the morning and practically had to be dragged home :) . Once we got her home, she was pretty much played out for the day. Ash was flexible, very easy to deal with and very loving. We can't wait to book with her again.”
About: I’ve been a lifelong animal owner and love animals of all kinds. 🥰. I’m semi retired and have time and space in my home to help you with your furry family members. Contact me and let me know how I can help! 😊 I’m retired and work part time from home. I have plenty of space and time for furbabies. I get out daily for multiple walks in beautiful downtown Pleasanton. I have a small fenced yard and deck that’s open to the dogs all day. Inside the dogs do not need to be crated unless the client prefers. Your animals are treated like family.
“Kim is amazing, her house is beautiful, her two dogs are very well behaved, and I could not be happier with her services! She is very professional (knows a lot about dog training), communicates nicely, and my dog was better behaved when I picked her up than when I dropped her off!”
“Pawparents dropped off for a playdate while attending a wedding. Rocky enjoyed his stay with Maya and other pup friends. Maya sent plenty of updates/pictures. She was very communicative and friendly. Highly recommended!”
“My Siberian Husky has such a special bond with Fiona and her family! He runs to their door and is very impatient to go inside their house - his Tractive collar shows he gets hours of activity, and he always comes home tired and happy beyond what I could imagine. Definitely the best Rover we’ve ever had!”
“Could not ask for a better dog sitting family! Their house is very dog friendly! They took exceptional care of my very energetic 6 month old Aussie puppy!...could not be happier with them...strongly suggest!”
“This was our second experience with Susan in just a month—this time for daycare—and it confirmed everything we already felt about her. The moment Mochi’s paws touched the grass, she knew where she was. She sprinted to the front door, then to the garage looking for Susan, then back again—at one point even trying to crawl under the gate to get to her! It was hilarious, heart-melting, and such a clear sign of how special Susan is to her. Mochi absolutely adores her. At pickup, Mochi was happy to see me—but then ran right back to Susan for one last cuddle. It was priceless. Susan truly understands the perfect dog equation: a well-exercised + mentally stimulated + loved dog = a happy, content, and tired pup. Mochi was snoring the moment we got home! Whether you need daycare or an overnight stay, Susan is, without a doubt, the one.”
“A was wonderful with Bear. She was very accommodating in letting me drop him off very early in the morning and understanding when I was running late picking him up. Her home is warm and inviting and she made sure to send pictures throughout the day. I can tell my baby was very comfortable and I was very happy and will have A watch him again in the future.”
“First time leaving my dog with a sitter in the 10 years I've had him. Zcarina was so kind with my nervous senior doggy. She sent lots of update photos, and I felt that he was in very good hands.”
“We left our 4 yr old dog with Rachna, and he thoroughly enjoyed his stay. He came back happy at the end of the day. She took good care of him. This was first time our dog stayed with another dog and a cat, and they all got along fine. Rachna also sent pictures. Overall, we were very satisfied and happy with her. Will of course use her services again in future. Thanks Rachna.”
“Grace took very good care of Willow and posted frequent updates with pictures. She took her out for multiple walks. Willow looks happy and playful after coming back, so she definitely had a great time with her and her family. Thanks, Grace!”
“This was our first time leaving our dog with Pooja and we had a good experience. She was very flexible with timing and also gathered all the details needed for our dogs stay. She and her family were very welcoming and made our dog feel very comfortable. She provided regular updates and pictures which was very helpful. Overall looks like our dog had a great time ! Thanks to Pooja and her family.”
“Thank goodness for Ashley for watching our doggies while we unpack from our move. Thank you for taking care of them and being patient with Daisy 🌼 she’s a little bit nervous about new environments and new surroundings .”

About: I’ve taken care of the pups since I was fresh out of college. And have had lovable pooches in my household for as long as I can remember. Very patient individual as I teach middle school students, if that doesn’t set me apart I don’t know what will. It’s summer time so looking for any way to have a proactive summer. And taking care of any pet is just an absolute bonus. I try to create a safe environment for all doggos as they deserve to be treated as one of us. My dogs growing up always had a nice fenced in area as they need to be active.

About: A Housesitter across North America for several years now, I have built a wealth of experience with a variety of animals and homes . I worked as a dog sitter and walker in NYC for five years, raised my own puppy from 8 weeks old. Then traveled to the West, housesitting my way across the country from VA to CA, OR and CO. I provide daily photo and video updates of your pets and can make framed prints available to order. I have had pets in the home since I was a child, including birds and hamsters as well as cats, kittens and dogs. I am currently looking for summer work, having worked as a Ski Instructor all winter in Arapahoe Basin. When housesitting, it is my principal job and priority. I do not currently offer care for a pet in my home, unless of course, they are happy living and traveling in my Class C motorhome.
“Christina spoiled our pooch, taking her on a nice long walk while making time to take breaks in the shade and play. We also got really cute photos from the walk, assuring us our pup was in very good hands.”
About: Hi! My name is Renee, and my passion for animal care began with my rescue dog, Brownie. Over the past 3 years, I’ve gained hands-on experience caring for dogs, cats, and even goats & farm animals of all ages, temperaments, and care needs. I have experience with: • Puppies, senior dogs, kittens, and multi-pet households • Large dogs (80+ lbs) and working breeds • Rescue dogs and reactive dogs • Administering oral medications Some of my previous pet care experience includes: • Caring for a Shiba Inu requiring oral medication for 1.5 months • Dog sitting 4 dogs from the same household for 3 weeks • Caring for 2 cats and 1 kitten from the same household for 1 month • Walking, jogging and hiking with dogs • Volunteering with Furry Friends Rescue and Muttville Senior Dog Rescue I’m especially comfortable working with rescue and reactive dogs. My own dog has reactivity challenges, so I understand the importance of patience and picking up on body language before a reaction happens. While I’m not a certified trainer, I’m happy to reinforce any training methods or routines you already use with your dog. My approach to pet care is centered around respect for each animal’s individual personality and boundaries. I prioritize clear communication and provide frequent updates and photos so owners feel informed and reassured while they’re away. I love meeting new dogs and cats and learning about their quirks, and I hope to meet your furry friend(s) soon! I understand my profile is new, so I don’t have as many testimonials. I have done work exchanges in the past on Workaway and WWOOF, and have attached those reviews as screenshots. You can also request references from me. I will be fully available for the entire month of August 2026 for any of your pet care needs, including drop-ins, walks, and overnight care. I take the time to get to know each dog by asking lots of questions and observing their personality and play style. I love playing with dogs, my own dog often mistakes me for one because I match his energy! Working with reactive dogs has taught me that every dog has their own boundaries and unique personality. I never treat one dog the same as another and am always respectful of your pet’s limits.
About: I’ve been a pet owner for 8 years and a dog owner for 5 years. However, I’ve been a dog lover my whole life. I own a friendly lab pitbull mix back home. I've take care of him since he barely fit in my hands as a 4 week old puppy. I'm able to provide dedicated overnight care for dogs. Food, water, bed, crate and fence, will be provided as needed. Frequent potty breaks and walks can be given to the pet as he or she needs. Dog walking and dog care can be provided. I'm a student at UCSB. When I am off class, I work part-time with rover. Taking care of your dog would be far from a job for me. Tending to the loving companions dogs are fulfills my day like no other. My neighborhood is surrounded by pet owners so ur dog will have company on his/her walks. Dog sitting at the owners house will also not be a problem, and I'm very reachable on my phone for constant updates.
“Mitchell was a superb dog walker for me and my dog, Kygo. He is incredibly professional and clearly has a genuine love for animals. He was always on time, provide updates after each walk (which I really appreciated) and I noticed a difference in Kygos energy levels and overall happiness. He brought treats for Kygo, took pictures, provided updates, overall A+ experience. Thanks Mitchell!”
“Tom walked our fur baby several times over two weeks. He was on time and returned our pup at 30 mins, enough time for all his potty business and exercise! Thank you, Tom!”
About: I’ve always had a huge heart for animals since I was a kid. I treat pets as if they were my own and respect their space when needed. I’ve worked with different such as livestock (horses, goats, sheep, cows) and your typical domesticated pet. I currently don’t have any pets of my own, so having the opportunity to watch someone else’s pet brings me tremendous joy. I currently work full time at a vet hospital Tuesday-Saturdays so it is really nice to be able to come home after work to something warm and fluffy. While in a clients home I always check out the home first so I can feel comfortable and see all possible exits. For pets to gain my trust I always let them sniff me first and treat them as if they were mine. I give them space when they need it. I have high respect for an owners home as well and treat it as if it were my home.
“Glad we found Anne. She helped walking our dog when we were traveling. She was always on time and shared pics and updates about the walk. Cookie really enjoyed spending time. Anne is very accommodating. Highly recommend.”
“Isabel was great with my two large dogs! She took time out of her day to do a meet and greet and was very helpful in making sure the dogs were taken care of! Looking forward to booking more walks with her!”
About: I have owned dogs since I was 10 years old and cats since the mid 1970's. I have cared for, fed, walked, played with not only my own, but for friends and neighbors as well.

I am currently not available to care for your pets in my home due to having 3 dogs and 2 cats already. Anything can change in the future though.

About: Hello, my family and I are huge animal lovers. We have been pet sitting for for a little over 3 of years now. We travel for long periods so don't have our own pets. This is why when your pet comes to our house, he/she will get spoiled with attention. We try and keep animals that are smaller than 50-55 lbs so they can enjoy free space in the house. I sometimes work at a school so my weekday calendar is usually blocked . Dogs will get lots of exercise when they're with us. about every 2 hours. They are allowed up on the sofa so come cuddle with us. Looking forward to meeting your fur family. I work at a school part time. So daytime usually they will hang out with my husband who works from home. Then afternoon onwards, myself and my two extremely gentle and sweet teen kids will be home to give the pet our undecided attention. Our house is fully fenced all around and pets will always be inside the house unless they want to sun bathe in the back yard.
About: I have grown up with dogs and around animals. I have two dogs who I walk, feed, and play with, I have also watched my neighbors pets since I was 11, when they went out of town. I currently do not have a job so I can fit in helping out walking or watching dogs anytime throughout the summer. It will be easy to fit into my routine. I take very good care of my own dogs and will treat any other animal the same. I will watch them to make sure they aren’t getting into any trouble and make sure they are safe and comfortable.

“We were very grateful to find someone that loves dogs and has a passion for caring for them when their owners need to be away. Our dog was safe & well taken care of. Thank you Monisa & David!”
“Yu-shu and family were AMAZING! We got a ton of updates complete with pictures and narratives every day during our vacation, and Leche was always so happy and loved, playing with other people and dogs! It was a wonder how Leche wanted to come back home to us! I hope Leche can stay with your family again, because she loved it, and we had zero worries or concerns about how she was doing. Thank you so much!”
“Caramel loved her time with Ash! She was extremely well taken care of during our 9 day trip, and we got daily photo & video updates of how she was doing. The whole experience, from initial meeting to final pickup, was perfect. It felt like Caramel got her own little mini vacation, hanging out with new friends and playing in a fun new location. We will certainly be back during future trips!”
“I'm very happy to have found Robert here on Rover! He is a wonderful dog host. I can tell that he gave our puppy a great deal of love, care and attention. Our puppy had other furry friends he played with during his stay and he enjoyed his time so much that he was pleasantly tired when I brought him home! Robert is very quick to respond and he sends updates via pictures/videos. Will definitely rebook with Robert again.”
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with over 15 years of dog walking and sitting experience. I’ve worked for a professional dog-walking company, leading both neighborhood walks and adventurous hikes. I’ve also cared for my own dog with epilepsy, giving medication three times a day and providing gentle, patient care. We’re a warm, loving little family who adore all kinds of animals. I live with my husband and our 4-year-old son, who was born into a home with a cat and dog and has grown up loving animals and nature. At home, we don’t currently have a dog or cat, just fishes and a frog 🐠🐸. After losing our beloved dog, we haven’t been ready to adopt another one, which means your pup will get all the love and attention they deserve while staying with us! I can care for your dog at your home or mine, in any weather, for walks, hikes, playtime, or full-time sitting. I can also provide care for cats while you’re away. Your furry friends will be treated with love, patience, and plenty of attention — maybe even spoiled just a little. 😉 I currently work only 2–3 hours a day during weekdays, so I have plenty of free time to care for your little one. I’m flexible on weekends as well, which means I can easily adjust my schedule for walks, playtime, or drop-in visits. Your furry baby will always get my full attention and care. I completely understand how it feels to miss your little one when you’re away — I’ve been there too. That’s why I’ll keep you updated with frequent photos and messages, so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and well cared for.
“The family clearly loves dogs and their dog Prince is true to his name. He buddied up with our lab so quickly at the meet and greet and they played the entire time. Our dog was so excited to visit after that one meeting. It’s clear they have been doing this a long time and we will definitely be going back !”
“Sameer, Reyna, and their kids are pretty much Helo's second family! By now, he knows the drill. This recent visit we dropped him off and Helo just walked casually into their house, laid down and had a face like "I'm in good hands, you can go now." We always feel at ease when we drop off our pup because we know he is very well taken care of. Helo comes home happy, well-played, and always excited to come back next time. I try to book well in advance because Sameer and his family get booked up so fast since everyone knows they are amazing dog lovers and care takers! Sameer and Reyna, we will forever stay and be your repeat customers!”
“Our dog Marley’s stay with Maya was great! Maya kept us very well informed and sent lots of pictures. Maya was very accommodating and flexible when our travel plans unexpectedly changed. We will happily leave Marley in Maya’s care again in the future. 😊🐾”
“Such a sweet person!! Carolyn went above and beyond to help us with our Sadie - she was our flower girl at our wedding and Carolyn was willing to come to the venue and get Sadie after our ceremony. She’s got a golden heart for animals! Thank you so much!!!”
“I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better sitter than Fiona!! She kept me updated with regular tests about my pup, which gave me so much peace of mind, and she truly made him feel right at home! The moment I picked him up, I could tell he was so happy and comfortable in her care. It means everything to know your pup is in such great hands I highly recommend her!!”
“Great communication. Our dogs did really well with them. One of our dogs unexpectedly hurt his back a few days before our boarding. We were happy to find his condition actually improved after boarding with them. We’re relieved they seemed well taken care of. Will definitely use Rachel and Jason again.”
“Jita was very sweet and accommodating! Our big girl needs a lot of special attention and she came home from Jita’s house happy and relaxed! We would highly recommend her!”
“Linh and Torrey took great care of Willis our 14 yr old boxer. I would highly recommend them caring for your fur baby. I wouldn't hesitate to have them care for Willis again and hope they are available for our next trip!!!”
“I had a great experience boarding my cat with Svetlana through Rover! From the start, they were friendly, and responsive. Throughout the stay, I received regular picture and video updates, which gave me peace of mind knowing my cat was in good hands. It was obvious my cat was comfortable and well-cared for! I wouldn’t hesitate to book with them again!”
“She is amazing host and took care of Charlie like he stays at home. Lots of play walking and taking care of my dog like a family. Lots of thanks for taking excellent care of my dog and giving personal extra care of him. It’s like a second home for my dog. Thanks.”
“I am lucky to have Lily taking care of my dog, Apollo for 24 days during my vacation. Lily gave me daily picture update of Apollo. My family was happy to see him even though we were thousand miles away. Lily also played balls with Apollo and playing ball is Apollo's favorite toy. I highly recommend Lily taking care of your dog.”
About: I have been a proud dog parent to my German Shepherd, which gave me hands-on experience caring for a large, intelligent, and high-energy breed. Through these years, I handled daily walks, feeding schedules, grooming, training reinforcement, and lots of playtime and companionship. Caring for a German Shepherd taught me the importance of structure, patience, exercise, and positive reinforcement. I understand how much love, attention, and consistency dogs need to feel safe and happy. I truly love dogs and treat every pet as if they were my own — with care, responsibility, and plenty of affection. Since I work from home, I’m able to spend most of my day with the pets I care for, giving them plenty of attention, supervision, and companionship. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I work from home, so dogs receive constant supervision, attention, and care throughout the day. My home has a spacious 12,000 sq. ft. backyard, including a separate fenced area for safe outdoor play and exercise. I provide a calm, secure, and loving environment where every dog is treated like family. 🐾
About: I’ve been a lifelong animal owner and love animals of all kinds. 🥰. I’m semi retired and have time and space in my home to help you with your furry family members. Contact me and let me know how I can help! 😊 I’m retired and work part time from home. I have plenty of space and time for furbabies. I get out daily for multiple walks in beautiful downtown Pleasanton. I have a small fenced yard and deck that’s open to the dogs all day. Inside the dogs do not need to be crated unless the client prefers. Your animals are treated like family.
