“Jerry was amazing with my feline beasts. She has excellent communication, provided me with videos and pics with each visit along with a brief summary of the visit. I am so happy to have found someone who cares for my felines as if they were her own. My cats required medicine and are not the cuddly pair. But Jerri was able to build a connection. I'm so appreciative of how well she took care of my animals and hm.”
“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: Hi! My name is Komo, and I am an energetic animal-lover excited to care for your dog, cat, fish, snake or even plant! I’ve enjoyed caring for friends’ pets for much of my life. I grew up helping feral kittens and watching Cesar Milan Dog training shows until I finally got my sweet rottweiler at age 12. Through raising my pup and over a decade of pet-sitting, I’ve come to understand how to care for and entertain dogs of any breed, age, and energy level. As the mom of a now senior (& very healthy) rottie, I am especially skilled at caring for puppies, high energy dogs, and senior pups. I currently have a pretty open schedule! I can be booked on weekdays morning and evenings and can accommodate any time on the weekends. For at-home petsitting, I function on the phrase “early to bed, early to rise” and am a light sleeper who can respond to any of your pets needs during the night. Each dog is different, and I make the effort to understand your dog and adapt to their needs. Aside from the energy and entertainment I bring to stimulate your pet, I know how to keep your home and belongings safe from their fun. Dogs will often communicate what they want before they act. By keeping an eye on their behavior, I catch zoomies and outbursts before it’s too late, removing them from situations where they can harm themselves or your belongings. My attention to their behavior will also keep me aware of their boundaries and comfort to ensure your pet trusts me and feels safe around me. I can easily crate, feed, medicate, and calm your pet, regardless of their energy level.
“It was my first time using a dog sitter. Su did really well Baby ! She sent updates daily. She text with any questions or concerns she had. Su made me feel at ease while I was on vacation 😃”
“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.”
“Our puppy is a handful so we have a lot that we asked Victoria to pay attention to - she always took our instructions to heart and I really appreciated that! Our pup had a great time”
“Inga met with us a couple of days before the start of the booking and it was immediately clear that she was good with dogs as our duo can be a little picky but they got along with her well. She also asked a lot of questions about the dogs, which made us feel more at ease. We were traveling out of town and Inga arrived earlier than asked to ensure there were no problems, sent us several updates with photos and videos of our dogs each day, and it was clear from them (and once we came back) that our dogs really liked her. Would highly recommend for anyone else and hopefully we'll be able to have Inga dogsit for us in the future as well.”
“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.”
“We are so grateful to have found Mai! She takes such great care of our dogs and home every time we’re away. Our dogs absolutely love her, and it gives us peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. Mai follows all our instructions carefully, asks for clarification when needed, and keeps us updated throughout her stay. Plus, she always leaves the house spotless! I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, responsible, and caring dog sitter.”
About: I’ve always had dogs in my life, but only in the last few years have I had major care experience of any kind, but I genuinely really enjoy it. I’ve always loved dogs and pets in general and I’d love to have more opportunities I’m not working any jobs right now and want to make some money doing something I enjoy while saving up for things. So I’m free a fair amount of the time I’m sure the type of care I give certain pets will depend on their personal needs since I’m planning on house sitting, but as far as basics go I’ll make sure to be attentive and keep them happy
About: Proud dog mom, cat aunt, and all-around animal lover here excited to spend time walking, playing with, and loving your pets. I know how important it is to feel your fur baby is happy and cared for while you’re away, and I’d love to help with that. My partner and I adopted our pup at 8 weeks old about 4 years ago, so I totally get those wild puppy days (and sharp little teeth!). I’ve also watched friends dogs and spent weeks at a time cat sitting for my sister over the years and loving getting to learn their little personalities and form bonds with them. I’d love to get to know your pet and make sure they feel safe, loved, and totally spoiled while we’re together. I’m just getting started here and would be happy to learn about your pet’s needs and can be flexible with scheduling as needed. I work remotely full time and can adjust to your pets schedule as needed. Trust and safety are my top priority wherever I am! My place has a fenced in yard, but my dog can be reactive and is not cat friendly. If you’d like to have your dog stay with me, I’d prefer to do a slow introduction with them before a long stay. When I’m at your place, I will care for it as my own. Before our first walk, I’d love to learn as much about your pet’s needs as possible to ensure I’m providing the best care while you’re away!
“Lauren took very good care of Casper and gave him company the whole time I was away. She also accommodated my last minute requests and was very flexible. Thank you so much for that ?”
“Patrick house sat for me last weekend. Everything was great and my pups were well taken care of. Patrick was very responsive and I will hire him again.”
About: Hello fellow pet lovers! My name is Kim, and I have been surrounded by the love and companionship of animals my entire life. Caring for pets isn’t just something I do—it’s truly who I am. From a young age, I’ve shared my home with all manner of animals! From dogs and cats, to gerbils, hamsters , chinchilla, birds, and fish. I understand just how much our furry friends mean to us. My beloved Havanese was a cherished member of our family for 17 wonderful years. During his life, I cared for him through every stage—from 16 weeks to dementia and the rainbow bridge. I have administered medications, managed illnesses, and provided comfort and healing. These experiences taught me patience, compassion, and the importance of attentive, individualized care. I have also fostered both dogs and cats, helping them transition into loving forever homes. This has given me valuable experience with a variety of personalities, temperaments, and special needs. In addition, I’ve often looked after neighbors’ dogs while they travel, so I know how important it is for pet parents to feel confident and worry-free while they’re away. I specialize in caring for animals 40 pounds or less, and I am happy to provide pet sitting in your home—where your pet feels most comfortable—or possibly in my own home, depending on your needs. I offer daily walks, feeding, playtime, and lots of cuddles. I also have experience with grooming, bathing, and hygiene care, so your pet will always feel their best! My goal is to make sure every animal in my care feels safe, loved, and happy. I treat every pet as if they were my own, and I’m always attentive to their unique routines and preferences. Whether your pet needs a gentle walk, a cozy place to nap, or some extra TLC, I’m here to help. Thank you for considering me to care for your precious pets. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! Currently I have great availability. I can be your regular care giver several times a day, several days a week, or your occasionally, as needed. My hours are flexible to meet your needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I provide attentive, responsible care in a clean, pet-friendly environment, whether I’m visiting your home or welcoming your pet into mine. I maintain strict hygiene by regularly cleaning litter boxes and pet areas, and I’m experienced with administering medications and flea treatments safely. You can trust that your pet will never be left unattended during my visits. I always follow your instructions closely, keep doors and windows secure, and ensure your cat’s environment is calm and stress-free. I believe in open communication, so I’ll send regular updates and photos, giving you peace of mind and real-time insight into your pet’s well-being. I am committed to earning your trust through reliability, transparency, and genuine care for your furry family member. Your pet’s happiness and safety are at the heart of everything I do.
“This was my first time ever using Rover. I was really skeptical and a little worried about having a stranger in our house. We met Emily one week before our trip. We had asked her to stay the night because our dogs are super clingy and cuddling is their love language. Emily was more than willing to stay the night. She left the house exactly how she found it. She sent pictures through out the days, asked questions if she wasn’t sure what to do. One of my dogs has some health issues so she has to pee every 4 hours. Emily never acted like it was a nuisance, and was absolutely accommodating. I trust her entirely and will be using her again and again!”
About: I bring a deep understanding of dog/puppy/cat behavior and a commitment to personalized care, ensuring each walk is not just a stroll, but an enriching experience tailored to your dog's or cats unique needs and preferences I’m currently enrolled in school I attend SJSU. So on the weekends & throughout the week,I have time to do dog walking on the side At other people’s home , I provide a warm and nurturing environment for my furry companions.

“I am lucky to have known such a responsible, kind, and compassionate person such as Komalpreet. These traits are obvious through her hard work and dedication as a reliable pet-sitter and creative professional. Beyond being warm and friendly, Komalpreet is professional and takes on each opportunity with extra care, passion, and a go-getter attitude. She has always gone the extra mile, ensuring she puts her best foot forward in everything she does. As a frequent pet-sitter for my cat, Pixie, I can safely say that Komalpreet is such a gift. She has such a natural talent for taking care of and getting along with animals. I have no doubt that she would be doing Rover pet-parents an incredible service by providing her time for their pets.”

Kimberly P.
“I've watched my wife care for animals with more love and attention than most people give to humans. She's had pets her whole life—labs as a kid, two cats, and our sweet Havanese who she raised from puppyhood to his final days. She’s not only a true animal lover, but also deeply experienced and incredibly attentive. She’s pet sat for neighbors’ dogs, worked with aging pets who needed shots, special diets, and medications, and even bottle-fed puppies when needed. Nothing gets past her—she notices subtle changes in behavior or health that others might miss. Plus, she can handle grooming and bathing like a pro. If you're looking for someone who will treat your pet like family and give them the absolute best care, I can't recommend her enough.”

“Gisselle is super good with all pets especially dogs. She has a dog of her own and has helped care for other dogs of ours and other family members. She is always attentive to every aspect making sure they have water and are fed. She is so caring and makes sure they are always happy. She would be a great sitter or walker for your dog.”
Ardenwood pet parents share their Rover experiences
Lauren was great with our anxious dog when dog-sitting this past weekend. She took the time to get to know our dog's temperament and adjusted to what made her comfortable. It was nice to have someone who cared for our sweet girl while we were away.
Brittanie was great! Besides regular feeding, water, and litter care, I loved that she spent time with my cats and gave the the companionship I want for them when I’m gone. She’s also super responsive and quick to communicate. Would definitely choose her again!
It was my first time using a dog sitter. Su did really well Baby ! She sent updates daily. She text with any questions or concerns she had. Su made me feel at ease while I was on vacation 😃

Very happy with the sitting. My pups were happy too. I got routine updates and photos. Recommend for sure
Tori did a great job taking care of our cat! You can tell she loves animals and our cat was in great hands. Tori was nice, professional, and has such a calm presence. 10/10 would recommend. Thanks, Tori!
Melissa did a fantastic job taking care of our dog Brenna and our home. Everything was perfect! Thank you!!
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.
Responds quickly, and took great care of my two dogs. Really appreciate how Kirstin took a little extra time to make my one dog - who has stranger danger- comfortable. I will be using Kirstin again!
Jerry was amazing with my feline beasts. She has excellent communication, provided me with videos and pics with each visit along with a brief summary of the visit. I am so happy to have found someone who cares for my felines as if they were her own. My cats required medicine and are not the cuddly pair. But Jerri was able to build a connection. I'm so appreciative of how well she took care of my animals and hm.
Very caring for our senior dog and took responsibility for feeding and giving medication. I felt very comfortable knowing that Emily was house sitting for us, this way our fur baby could be in her own house where everything is familiar. Highly recommended!
he was absolutely great! asked a lot of questions about my 2 dogs and we do things at home, sent lots of updates, and walked the dogs with no problem. he’s a great sitter, it’s also very convenient if you live in the union city area as well. he house sat and watched my dogs on Christmas day, which was generous! we were gone for about 8-9 hours, the dogs were pleased with the walks and just simply having someone at home.
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!
Jenna was wonderful with our senior dog Randy, we can’t wait to have her back to housesit. Highly recommend.
Ashi stayed in my home to care for my dog, Onyx and it was so very evident that she did an amazing job. Upon returning it was clear that Onyx was well-fed, happy, and not anxious at all. Typically when we're going away, Onyx chooses to start a hunger strike and needs extra care and support to eat his meals; Ashi put forth that extra effort. Ashi was also very communicative with us through text. We received many updates, photos, and even videos of how Onyx was doing which was so relieving while away. Lastly, she was an excellent houseguest. We returned to our place just as clean as when we left it. I would definitely book with Ashi again and recommend her to any pet parent :)
