“I needed help last minute to care for my dood. Jenny was able to come super last minute and take care of him. She went above and beyond to care for Drake. Taking him on multiple walks, playing with him and making sure he was fed on time. I would highly recommend her as a caretaker and would definitely request to have her help again. Thank you Jenny! 💖”
“Aurora was truly a gift having her dog-sit our precious girl Sadie. She was caring, responsive, gave many updates throughout the long weekend and made me feel at ease while I was away knowing that my dog was in good hands. Thank you Aurora. You are top on my list for future dog-sitting needs.”
“Mai was great with our dogs. I am glad I found Mai so we could have a peace of mind when we travel. She communicated well and was realiable. She also left our house neat and clean. We will definitely get her services again.”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter! Amy went above and beyond while caring for our dog and cat, especially when our dog unexpectedly needed surgery during our trip. Amy was calm, reliable, and incredibly attentive—sending thoughtful updates and making sure they had food, toys, and attention. We came home to a spotless house and a sweet surprise: a painting Amy made of our pets! Her kindness and creativity really touched us. We’re so grateful and would absolutely trust her again in a heart beat.”
“Victoria housesat for us with our senior dog for almost two weeks. She kept our dog company and took her for walks. We really appreciated the care she took and would gladly book her again!”
“Quynh Ann (QT) was fantastic with my dog Rex. Rex is a senior blind dog and she took great care of him for a week while I was out of town. QT also took great care of my apartment and I would never have guessed that she had been at my home the last week!”
About: Hello! After many years working in IT, I’ve happily retired to follow my heart—becoming a full-time dog mom. I’m warm, caring, and detail-oriented, but most importantly, I truly love dogs! I share my life with Bo, my joyful 4-year-old girl. She enjoys at least three walks a day and trips to the dog park almost every day. Your furry friend will get the same love, attention, and fun-filled activities as Bo does—plenty of walks, playtime, and companionship. As a photographer, I’ll also keep you connected with your pup by sending photo and video updates as often as you’d like. If your dog stays with us for a longer visit, you may even receive a beautiful portrait as a keepsake. 💛 Love, play, laughter, and tail wags are all here waiting for your fur baby! I’m home full-time, so I can give plenty of attention and care. I usually take the dogs out in the morning, around noon, and in the evening—most often to the nearby dog park. We also have a spacious garden courtyard where the dogs can walk and explore if we’re not heading out of the building. We have a beautiful, walled garden courtyard where the dogs can safely walk and explore, and the Fremont Central Park Dog Park is just a few minutes away. My 4-year-old dog, Bo, is a sweet and friendly girl who loves both people and other dogs—she’ll be a wonderful companion for your fur baby
“Su took such great care of our dog Harley while we were out of town. She took her for daily walks and followed all of our care instructions. She even cared for my plants while we were away. We feel so lucky to have found Su!”
About: I have been taking care of dogs and cats since age 4. My pets are part of the family and your dogs will be treated as such as well I am currently taking care of my mother so I have plenty of time to take care of pets. They will be well looked after I have a fenced backyard and a second back yard that is the water company land but it is also fenced and will allow the dog more room to roam supervised
“Rose did an excellent job watching our two doodles. Both of them are a bit of a handful as one is a senior with incontinence issues (he needs regular outsides and diaper changes) while the other is younger and requests regular attention. Rose arrived on time, she made sure both dogs had regular breaks and she shared lots of pictures. We will definitely work with her again.”
“We had a great experience with Sahil for housesitting of our pets. He was very attentive towards our dog and cat, communicated issues and questions and was very responsive. The house was also well taken care of. We had a overall positive experience and would book a housesitting or dogsitting again.”

“Saana was wonderful with our dog! She sent updates and photos on a daily basis and went above and beyond for every aspect of the sit. Partway through our trip, our boiler broke down, and Saana coordinated with the handyman to have it replaced before we returned and was so kind about not having hot water for a few days. She cleaned the house thoroughly and we came home to a calm, happy dog and a beautifully clean house. We would have her and Nitin back in an instant!”
“Suky was fantastic. Great communicator, knowable, responsible, flexible. Our GSD Sansa was recently diagnosed w/ Cushing's Disease and needed medicine and some extra attention. Suky took everything in stride and got along famously w/ Sansa. We would book Suky again in a heartbeat. Thanks Suky!”
About: I’ve been known for taking care of our friends’ dogs as if they are my own. From few hours to 5 weeks, dogs of different sizes have been under my care which had led to many of my friends recommending me to start Rover. As a runner and recreational tennis player, I feel confident providing the best physical care for the puppies — going out on runs and doing indoor tugging activities. I will always be looking out to see if the puppies are comfortable and pouring them with love. Also, be prepared to get showered with tons of pics and stories of how your puppies spent their time during their stay! My dog-friendly place will be a safe, quiet heaven for your puppies — with multiple parks nearby, including a fenced dog park, where puppies can enjoy running while on/off leash (I prefer not doing off-leash when outside unless it's fenced yard or dog park). As a dedicated dog lover with a full-time job (weekdays, 2 PM to 10 PM but can come home for dinner around 6 pm), I’ve structured my schedule to ensure your furry friend gets the best care possible. Here’s what you can expect: - Reliable Availability: I plan potty breaks at least three times a day—typically around 7-8 AM, 12 PM-2 PM, and 10-11 PM—so your pup’s needs are always met. - Plenty of Companionship: Your dog will have company for most of the day, with alone time never exceeding 8 hours. - Daily Exercise: I take multiple short walks every day, giving your pup fresh air and a chance to stretch their legs. - Flexible Coordination: I’m happy to work with you to ensure your dog’s care schedule fits seamlessly with mine. - Personalized Attention: Every pup in my care receives love, attention, and care tailored to their specific needs. Rest assured, your four-legged family member will be in loving and responsible hands while you’re away! I live in a dog-friendly apartment in a safe and welcoming residential area of San Jose. My home is located right next to a fully fenced dog park, where your pup can safely sniff, run around, and socialize with other friendly dogs. This ensures they get plenty of exercise and mental stimulation during their stay. For added peace of mind, I have a reliable car and am prepared to transport your pet to the nearest veterinary urgent care if needed. My apartment is clean, secure, and designed with pets in mind, offering a comfortable environment where your furry friend will feel right at home. Whether it’s playtime at the park or cozy downtime indoors, your dog will be cared for in a safe, enriching environment that prioritizes their happiness and well-being.
About: Hi! I've had pets my whole life, up until moving to SF and I know how to love and care for pets big and small! I have experience walking and watching cats, dogs, small mammals, and reptiles. I've walked dogs as large as a German Shepherd and as tiny as a Chihuahua. I am often complimented that the pups I take on walks come back looking relaxed, happy, and if they're young they come back listening to commands better. I work with dogs on pulling and use positive reinforcement to work on any bad habits the pet parent wants support with. : ) I work fully remote and often find myself with a lot of free time in the day. So what else would be a nice treat than to care for an animal! For dog sitting care that is done in the pet parent home I ensure that I understand and follow any instructions you have for arrival, food, water, crating, and locking up. For day care (no overnight) I have my own personal office in downtown. If the pet isn't super hyper active they can stay with me in my office and I can take them out for walks periodically throughout the day along Embarcadero. For boarding I have my home in the East Bay with a dog run on the side, a fenced in backyard with grass. There are dog parks and walking trails 5-10 minute drive from the house.

28 Palms pet parents share their Rover experiences
Shivani was incredible and the best sitter we’ve had! She took such great care of our pup, our two cats, and our home. Our pup is fairly reactive and has some big feelings about the world, so it can be hard to find people she is comfortable with. She seemed to be quite at ease with Shivani and enjoyed her time with her! Our shy cat also loved Shivani! Shivani also sent a lot of updates about our pets, which was soooo incredibly helpful and really put us at ease while we were away! Truly can’t say enough positive things about her and we will definitely ask her to sit for us in the future!
Madeline was very professional and accommodating, she immediately connected with our dog and played with her until she was completely tired out. She definitely has a way with dogs and I would recommend her for anyone looking for house sitting for their pet.
Working with Vanessa is the best! Our cat adores her. Vanessa is one of our cat’s top favorite people of all time. Vanessa takes such great care of him, and left our home in great condition too as an added bonus. She is very communicative and caring. Thanks, Vanessa!
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!!
Rose did an excellent job watching our two doodles. Both of them are a bit of a handful as one is a senior with incontinence issues (he needs regular outsides and diaper changes) while the other is younger and requests regular attention. Rose arrived on time, she made sure both dogs had regular breaks and she shared lots of pictures. We will definitely work with her again.
We highly recommend Aurora to care for your pets. She recently took wonderful care of our two mini doodles. She provided updates and photos, kept track of the medication for our older pup and kept our 9-month puppy safe and both pups happy. She also kept the house tidy and that was a pleasant to come home to a house as clean as we left it. We look forward to working with Aurora again, in fact have already booked her for another weekend.
This was the first time Melissa watched our two large dogs. It was a week long booking and it could not have gone better. Care was great. Communication was great. Reliability was great. Dogs were happy. Caring for our dogs is complicated enough but there were several occasions during our trip that Melissa went above and beyond to keep us informed. I really appreciated that. I would highly recommend Melissa.
Highly recommend Sahil if you are looking for someone to treat your fur babies like theirs and take care of them just like you would. Sahil made sure that our fur babies are given all the love and care they needed while we were out. Sahil communicated regularly with us and was always available when needed. 5 stars from us. Will definitely be booking him again! !
We are thankful for having met Dixie and for her expertise in handling two elder dogs. One who is usually very anxious when we leave took to Dixie with no problem. Looking forward to future sitting from Dixie. Thank you so much and we felt our furry family members were in good hands.
Stacey is an amazing sitter! She did an excellent job caring for our little doggie, as if he were her own. He is a special one with quirks, diet needs and meds and none of that phased her. She did her best to make him feel loved while we were away. We received regular updates which really helped us to feel better about leaving him behind.
Happy and relieved to have found Alani on Rover after our previous pet sitter moved out of state! Alani was kind enough to come by beforehand to do a meet and greet with the pups and entire family. We knew the pups would be in great hands after that first meet! Alani sent pictures and kept me updated while we were away on our trip. We will definitely hire her again the next time we are out of town!
Issel was a new sitter for us and she did a great job. We have a new, young, large dog that is still working on manners and she managed both this newer, challenging dog and our polite older dog very well. She was very responsive and flexible. She managed both dog's need for constant human contact very well. I give her extra high marks because I messed up the date on the original booking request and she showed up to watch the dogs a month early based on my error. She was very kind and understanding and agreed to move the booking to the correct month but, when she came to the house that first time, my wife and I were out walking the dogs and she showed tremendous concern and resourcefulness when she found the dogs missing and the gate open. I highly recommend Issel.
Marney was very detailed and caring for Timon. She not only messaged and sent pictures throughout the day, but also left detailed notes and a cute report card on how the day went. She handled Timon well on their walk, even when he started acting up and biting the leash, clothes, and even her arm :( She also handled another dog who sprinted up to them and kept the two separated. Marney is very reliable and your dog will be in good hands!
