Pooya was my neighbor back in 2017 and an absolute lifesaver for Fluffy and me during that time. He was incredible dependable and providing excellent care. Fluffy clearly enjoyed his walks with him and I always felt comfortable knowing he was in good hands. I especially appreciated his flexibility and willingness to accommodate my schedule, even during holidays. He stayed with fluffy once during thanksgiving and once on Christmas eve. He also took fluffy to the vet once on short notice because I couldn't take him myself. I highly recommend Pooya to any pet owner seeking a loving and reliable dog walker/sitter.

This is my first experience with Rover and David. WOW. Perfect first experience. David arrived early, greeted Juno like a pro by going down to her level, and kindly introduced himself to me. Within seconds they were off and when they came back a full 30 minutes later, David had taken Juno for a run! Juno was all smiles when she got back. Thank you David!

My dog loves Ania! I am hesitant to leave my dog Lola with others because she is “shy.” She’s a rescue and a bit scared of the world. But Lola warmed right up to Ania and is comfortable around Ania’s sweet dog Mochi. Ania is clearly a kind soul. I am grateful and relieved I found someone I trust!

About: As a lifelong dog lover with 5 years of personal experience, I prioritize your dog’s comfort, whether they need a slower pace or extra attention during our walks. I’m skilled in managing reactive dogs with patience and understanding, ensuring a positive experience for both your dog and me. As a dog owner myself, I know how important it is for your dog to feel happy and at ease. My goal is to provide reliable, fun, and enriching walks that leave your dog well-exercised and content! Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine! I enjoy spending quality time with dogs, whether it’s going for walks, playing, or ensuring they’re comfortable and happy. My schedule is flexible, allowing me to provide plenty of attention, affection, and care throughout the day, making sure every pet feels at home. I ensure every walk is safe by using secure leashes, avoiding hazardous areas, and being mindful of each dog's comfort level. I build trust by following their routine, respecting their pace, and providing positive reinforcement. Whether we’re strolling through the neighborhood or exploring a park, I create a calm and enjoyable experience tailored to each dog’s needs. I also keep open communication with owners, providing updates and ensuring their pets are happy, comfortable, and well cared for.

Jiarui took great care of my two Abyssinians for a month, managing their fish oil and hairball supplements every day. I came back to happy, healthy cats with shinier coats and a bit of healthy weight gain. Her regular updates kept me reassured, and it was clear the cats were well cared for. I’d recommend Jiarui to anyone looking for a reliable cat sitter.

About: Hello, my name is Eli (He/Him). While I'm new to Rover, I'm certainly not new to pet care! I used to have my own dog—his name was Jack, and I cared for him his whole life! I have experience with many different types of animals with various needs high and low and I aim to meet every one! In addition to that, I have experience caring for pets over extended periods, including walking, feeding, bathing, and playing with them. I look forward to meeting your pet! At the moment, I have a flexible schedule! Don’t hesitate to message me the dates you need so I can work around both our schedules. I live in a house with a fenced in yard with grass, dirt, plants and lots of room for your dog to relax and play in!

About: I was raised with dogs! My first dog was named Greta, who was a German shepherd, she guarded our house, I remember she would also do her rounds, waking up at around 1 or 2 am, to check up on us. We then had Macho who was a dachshund and then we got another German shepherd named Mabel, both were very sweet, I also dog sat and dog walked for family members and close family friends. I’m a nursing student at contra Costa college, I do school part time, currently I have school on Mondays and Wednesdays. I am free for sitting and walking on Tuesdays, Thursday’s, Friday’s, Saturdays, and Sundays. I know how to keep puppies entertained, and can care for elderly pets as well, I can give frequent potty breaks, give medicine, help potty train, and overall take good care of pets, unfortunately I can’t board pets in my home at the time, but I can sit for multiple days in a row if need be!

Elena was great with our dog. She was patient with him and very caring. He was a little shy meeting someone new and she took the time to make him feel comfortable and slowly get to know her.

Emma is one of the most caring and compassionate human beings I've ever met, and she is especially caring and compassionate towards furry friends. Every time she takes care of my cat while I'm away, she makes sure to send me plenty of photos and updates and she spends lots of time brushing her and making sure she's happy. Emma grew up around dogs, cats, guinea pigs, horses and a rabbit, so she is familiar with having lots of animals around. She is very trustworthy and you can definitely depend on her to be a wonderful pet sitter.
