“Stacey was great to work with! She was a great communicator, made pick up and drop off very easy and checked in with me throughout Bogey’s stay. My pupper seemed super comfortable and at easy with her and her dogs as well. Will definitely be working with her again :)”

“Kellie took good care of Oreo. He quickly settled down on the first day which is rare, as he warms up slowly. Kellie also quickly adjusted the walking schedule per our request. Oreo was so happy every morning that he waggles his tail and jumps up and down at the first sight of Kellie.”

“Charlie had a wonderful time with Ian! Ian was punctual and informative. Even though he puppysat for 12 hours I received many pictures of their day together. I felt like Charlie wasn't even gone. I felt that Charlie was safe with Ian and that Ian really enjoys hanging with his buddy of the day. I will 100% be using Ian next time were back in Napa!”

“Excellent experience with Olga today. Our dog did not have prior dog day care experience, and he has separation anxiety after 2+ years of pandemic mostly spent with us at home. Everything went perfectly smoothly. Olga was attentive and caring. We also received some cute pictures of the day. Thank you!”

About: **Experienced Dog Lover & Safe Haven for Your Furry Family** Dogs have been central to my life - I’ve cared for 6 beloved companions over the years, mostly rescues from shelters and the streets, plus one cherished family poodle. My experience spans various breeds including two pit bulls, a border collie, a Romanian raven (street dog), and currently Apollo, our one-year-old smooth collie who’s wonderful with other dogs and actively training. **Your Dog’s Safety & Comfort Come First** Our home features a fully fenced, secure yard designed to keep dogs safe - no escape routes here! Your pup will have doggy door access so they can move freely between house and yard. We maintain an active lifestyle with daily multi-mile walks, regular dog park visits, beach trips, and hiking adventures, but we’re happy to adjust our routine to match your dog’s specific needs and energy level. **Personalized Care & Attention** I limit my care to a maximum of 2 dogs at a time to ensure each pup receives the individual attention they deserve. Having raised dogs from puppyhood through their senior years, including working with rescues who needed extra patience and care, I understand that every dog is unique. Whether your pet needs gentle encouragement, structured exercise, or just lots of love and attention, they’ll receive personalized care in our home. Your dog won’t just be watched - they’ll be genuinely cared for as part of our family. Pet care isn’t something I fit into my routine - it IS my routine. My days naturally revolve around my dogs’ needs and well-being. I start each morning with walks and feeding, and throughout the day I’m actively engaged with them whether we’re training, playing in the yard, or just spending quality time together. Evenings often include longer walks or trips to the dog park. Having cared for dogs for years, this rhythm feels completely natural to me. When I’m caring for client dogs, they simply join this established routine that already prioritizes canine happiness and health. As a homemaker, I’m available throughout the day to monitor, interact with, and respond to any needs that arise. Pet care isn’t an add-on to my life - it’s woven into the fabric of how I live. **In My Home:** Your dog will enjoy a secure, fully-fenced yard with doggy door access for indoor/outdoor freedom. I limit care to a maximum of 2 dogs to ensure individual attention and maintain a safe, escape-proof environment. Daily care includes regular feeding, fresh water, exercise tailored to your dog’s needs, and plenty of companionship. We’ll follow your pet’s routine while incorporating our active lifestyle of walks, dog parks, and outdoor adventures. Your dog sleeps indoors with access to comfortable spaces throughout the house. I provide regular updates with photos so you know how your pup is doing. Any specific instructions for feeding, medication, or behavioral needs are carefully followed. My experience with 6 dogs over the years, including rescues with special needs, has taught me to read canine body language and respond to different temperaments. **Safety is paramount** - secure fencing, dog-proofed spaces, and constant supervision ensure your pet’s well-being. Your dog will receive experienced, loving care in a safe environment designed with their comfort and security in mind.

“I’m so glad I found Nicole to watch Teddy! I just moved and it’s always comforting when you find a safe and reliable person to watch your fur baby! Would definitely love to use her again.”

Kristina B.

“Silvana is a dog whisperer! She has a way with dogs that makes them very calm and happy even when they just meet. She is super sweet and sent me pictures throughout the stay.”

Nathaniel Y.

“Benedict and Kristina did a great job watching our dog for the day. They provided updates throughout the day and great pictures of them having fun with Kenji on the Rover card! Benedict responds back quickly and very easy to communicate with. He gave us a cute little treat bag when we picked Kenji up. I highly recommend them and have already booked them again for future trips :).”

“Dawn was absolutely amazing! She was so kind to my pups and helped me last minute with daycare so I could deal with an emergency. She was super responsive and communicative. My pups were super happy and relaxed with her. Would 100% recommend Dawn.”

Mitzi M.

“So nice! Arianna was available to take my Nora as early as 6:30a which meant A LOT because I have to go to work at early times. Nora became comfortable with Arianna, Arianna’s dog and family very quickly. Arianna took Nora on a walk and was considerate to put on her booties so her paws wouldnt burn in the hot weather. When I picked her up Nora seemed refreshed and not anxious like she normally is when I pick her up from bigger daycares. She didn’t seem nervous or anxious at all on our car ride back. She was really happy. I think Nora had a great time and I felt reassured I could trust Arianna with Nora while I went to work”

Cathy Y.

“Janet, Shasta and their family were incredibly friendly and welcoming from the meet and greet, and Juno made himself right at home. She sent us plenty of pictures and videos throughout the day to keep us informed, and we could tell Juno was having a blast just from the photos. They have an amazing yard and a beautiful house, and we felt very secure knowing Juno was in good hands. Would highly recommend and we would also live for Janet to look after Juno again. Thank you!”

Mori Y.

“I am so glad I found Tillana for my lil Snow! She was such a gracious host, and took care of my 1-year-old who is extra energetic and a complete social butterfly :) Snow had an absolutely amazing day at Tillana's, playing with her and the other cute furry friends of his. She made sure to update me regularly throughout the day with messages and pictures. I know for sure Snow loved his stay because when I went to pick him up, he was sad to leave and kept licking her all over :D Thank you so so much again and I'm sure Snow will be back to have fun at your place.”

About: Hi, I'm Kathryn! I’m an experienced, compassionate pet sitter offering personalized care, daily dog walks, and overnight stays. I work from home full-time as a journalist, which means your pup will have constant companionship, plenty of belly rubs, and lots of love. My passion for animals runs deep—I grew up at my mom’s dog daycare, where I was immersed in dog behavior training and care from an early age. We had labs growing up, and some of my favorite memories are of taking them on long adventures in the woods. These days, my partner and I share our home with our sweet shepherd mix, Ozzy. I’ve spent the last eight years caring for dogs while I lived all over the country. This is my first time on Rover, and I’m excited to build meaningful relationships with both pets and their people. I believe pet care should be accessible—not overpriced—so I strive to offer affordable, high-quality service that gives you peace of mind. We live in a beautiful, pet-friendly apartment with a secure back courtyard and quick access to local parks for playtime and walks. Your pet will be treated like family—safe, loved, and happy while you're away. For housesitting and boarding requests, I will be joined by my own dog Ozzy. If your dog prefers not to be around a young dog, then it may not be a fit. Looking forward to connecting! As a journalist who works from home, I’m lucky to have a flexible schedule—and I love using it to give animals the attention, care, and fun they deserve. With tenderness, love, and dedicated attention, I focus on creating a safe, comfortable environment tailored to your pet’s unique needs. I can’t wait to meet your wonderful companion and make them feel right at home!

“Charlotte was great! She took great care of Charlie during the day, went on walks, and was very responsive. She has two young daughters who are gentle with dogs. Would definitely recommend Charlotte for anyone looking for a friendly and caring sitter!”

About: Hi! I’m Andrea, originally from Colombia and now living in Oak Creek (Palo Alto) with my husband Juan and our sweet rescue pup, Iris Alfonsina. We recently moved here from Barcelona because Juan is a postdoc at the Stanford School of Medicine, and we’re excited to be part of this beautiful community. Dogs have always been a huge part of our lives. We know how deep the bond can be—and how important it is to find someone you truly trust to care for your furry family member. I work remotely for a company in Colombia, which means I’m home most of the day. That gives me plenty of time to give your dog the attention, playtime, cuddles, and walks they deserve. I love being outside and staying active—and I believe dogs make everything better. 🐕🌿 I’m also learning English, so getting to know local pet parents (and their awesome pups!) helps me feel more connected and grow every day. If you’re looking for someone loving, responsible, and genuinely passionate about dogs, I’d love to care for your pup like they were my own. 👉 Let’s schedule your dog’s first visit—I can’t wait to meet your best friend! Pet care is part of my everyday life. I work from home, so I’m always around to give pets love, walks, and attention throughout the day. I care for every pet as I’d want someone to care for my own dog, Iris Alfonsina—with love, patience, and full attention to their needs. I provide a safe, calm environment, regular walks, playtime, and plenty of affection. I follow any specific instructions from pet parents to make sure each dog feels comfortable, secure, and happy—just like I’d want for Iris.

“Kuma had an amazing time with Crystal. She took Kuma out for several walks and was quick to respond if I had any questions. Kuma didn’t want to leave when I came to pick her up. Would definitely recommend Crystal!”
