“Great job, our pets and their space was well take care of! Before we left, Megan & Jenny R were collaborating with us on how to provide the best care, and stayed in touch during their visits.”


“Maricruz was amazing! She took fantastic care of my two free-roam bunnies. One of my bunnies is really shy, but he immediately felt safe around her and connected with her. Maricruz sent lots of photos and great updates, which made me feel totally at ease while I was away. She kept everything so tidy and clean. I highly recommend Maricruz!”

About: Hi, I’m Eleanna and caring for animals has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember! I grew up spending time in my Greek village, I was always rescuing and caring for stray pets. I rescued my own stray kittens, spent time on Greek farms surrounded by dogs and cats, and later fostered and rescued three cats and a dog in the US. I’ve built strong relationships with my clients and have had the pleasure of caring for many pets through Rover. I have experience with all types of doggies like seniors, special needs, anxious and high energy dogs. I take pride in being reliable, communicative, patient, and attentive. I always aim to make both pets and owners feel safe and can have peace of mind while they are away, and I make sure to send regular updates and photos so you always know your pet is happy and cared for. I specialize in house sitting and in-home care, so your pet can be comfortable in their own environment and regular routine. This is especially helpful for pets who are anxious, older and I make sure to keep a calm, peaceful environment. I’d love to meet you and your furry family and want to be a person that you can depend on to feel safe and trusting with your fur baby. Schedule: I am currently fully available and have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate a lot of extra time, attention, and consistency to your pet throughout the day. I can usually accept request with short notice. I like to see the pet sitting almost as a “vacation” for your pet so they get extra fun and attention, and this also helps keep them happy if they have separation anxiety and miss their owners. I specialize in house sitting and in-home care, so your pet can be comfortable in their own environment and regular routine. This is especially helpful for pets who are anxious, older and I make sure to keep a calm, peaceful environment. I treat every home with respect and care, and follow your instructions closely to maintain your pet’s routine. I am very tidy and open to helping with any home tasks needed as well. My goal is for your pet to feel safe, calm, and loved, and for you to feel at ease and trust that your pet is in good hands.

About: I had a dog for 15 years and a cat for 2 years, giving me experience with pets at all stages of life. They are very special and I have a deep passion for caretaking, one that extends to your pets! I can also administer medications if needed. I am a student at UCSF on summer break. I have availability most days—weekdays and weekends, just need a few days notice! I am also a night owl so I can watch your pets well into the evenings! I have a fenced backyard and live in a dog-friendly neighborhood. I love going on long walks around here solo, and a pet companion would make that even better! For cats, I can also take them on walks (if they’re those types of cats haha) or can just stay inside and play with toys.

Becca is a true delight to work with. She is responsible, organized, communicative, and seems to truly enjoy caring for our cats. She took some of the best pictures we’ve ever had of our cats, gave us fun and entertaining updates, and took great care of our boys. We can’t begin to thank her enough for her great work, would absolutely book again.

Megan was amazing! She was very attentive and kept us updated throughout each visit with lots of photos and thorough reports at the end of each visit. It was clear our cats were well cared for and comfortable with her while we were away. We’d definitely book with her again!
