House Sitting in Atherton

“Mary did a great job caring for our dogs while we were out of town. We will definitely be using her again and appreciate her help especially at last minute. Thank you Mary!!”

“Emma stayed with my cat Patrick for a week while I was in another state for work. Patrick needs some special attention and takes daily medication. She did a great job making sure he was taking care of and comfortable! Additionally, she communicated with me well and made sure to send me some pictures every day!”

“Kaitlin has the magic touch! My generally shy cat Watusi was in the kitchen posing for pictures the first day! Blizzard my dog loves anyone who'll give him a treat. Kaitlin kept them both happy and fed, along with plenty of pats, pics and snacks. She was also willing to water my outdoor plants, but with all the rain I haven't had a chance to see if she really needed to. I definitely recommend Kaitlin as a pet sitter and will be checking to see if she's available the next time I travel!”

“This is our second time having Wendy stay with our dogs. Once again she did a spectacular job! Our dogs & home are so well taken care of when she's here.”

About: I have always loved dogs growing up and playing with them brings me a sense of joy. I have dogs of my own and I always make sure that they are loved and cared for I currently work as a receptionist part time, so I’m free anytime to love, play, and take care of your pets whenever it’s necessary for you! At my home we have an electric fence, but we also have leashes for our dogs and others friends incase we have company over there

“We are so lucky to have Olivia as Stevie’s recurring dog sitter! She consistently goes above and beyond, making sure she is happy, loved, and well cared for every single time. Olivia is dependable, thoughtful, and truly cares about the dogs she watches. Stevie absolutely adores her—and so do we. Highly recommend!”

Stephanie L.

“Karrie was fantastic! She stayed in our home, which helped our dogs feel comfortable and relaxed right away. She kept them on their usual routine, so we never had to worry while we were away. She was also a wonderful house guest and even washed dishes and bedding before she left. We couldn't have asked for better care and will definitely be booking with her again!”

Jonathan F.

“Samantha came to my rescue after my original house sitter had a family emergency. She took wonderful care of my dog Eddy and my cat Lily. Both pets were relaxed and content when I returned home. I would definitely have Samantha sit with my pets again!”

Erin M.

“Excellent sitter for my 8 year old and 2 1 year old Rottweiler puppies. Mya is a loving and compassionate person. She followed my special instructions to the tee and was especially great with my youngest puppy with epilepsy as one of the 7 dogs in her own household also has epilepsy. I couldn't have asked for a better person than Mya for my last minute booking while I had surgery. Will definitely use her repeatedly! Highly recommend.”

“Shelby took great care of my kitty while I was away. She stayed at the house with Arthur and everything was in order when she left. Arthur was very happy and relaxed when I returned from vacation!”

About: I’ve also had guinea pigs and rabbits and birds and goats. I love all animals and am happy to care for them no matter what shape or size. They all deserve love and attention and as long as I have solid instructions then I got it covered and they’ll feel like they’re my own babies. I’m currently unemployed. I’m getting certified to sell insurance and am home. I have two children in pre school and elementary school and the extra money would help a lot in this transitional period. I can happily come to your home and give your animals all the love they need. I’m in an apartment so coming to my home isn’t available currently but I can do check-ins or extended stays at your home depending on what you need.

About: I currently work from home but I am the the process of making a career change and will eventually be working out of the house. I have a German shepherd that loves everyone! He does well woth small dogs, big dogs, aggressive dogs, and shy dogs. I do have cats but they are outside, they have claimed the frontyard and porch and stay out of the backyard. I have been watching animals on Rover since 2020 and I was a horse trainer/ranch hand before that. If you have any questions feel free to ask! I currently work from home so I let the dogs out many times throughout the day. When I do make a career switch I have a babygate to seperate the house to make sure there are no incidents while im out and then before and after work they will get plenty of exercise. I tend to spoil animals. I love playing with them and giving them scratches. My animals are allowed on the furniture so when we aren't playing there is a lot of cuddle time.

About: I’ve been known through my family and friends as a “dog whisperer”, and have had dogs in my care all my life! I’ve owned and taken care of my own senior dog for years, and am currently working with my new puppy. I have detailed experience with elderly dogs and dogs with medical needs. I can administer medications involving needles, and fulfill special food requests. Currently, I am a university student and I have a small part time job. However, I miss working with animals and my class schedule tends to be very flexible! In caring for a pet at your home, I treat it as if it was my own. I always emphasize to follow directions perfectly, and to treat your things with respect.

About: I’ve grown up around dogs and have years of experience caring for pets of all sizes, ages, and energy levels. As a graduate student, I’m responsible, organized, and dependable, and I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, or just extra cuddles and attention, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Beginning in June, I’ll have a consistent but flexible schedule between graduate classes and part-time work. I’m available for mornings, weekends, occasional overnight stays, and check-ins throughout the week, and I’m committed to providing dependable, loving care and communication for every pet I watch I strive to keep pets as comfortable and stress-free as possible by maintaining their normal routine while they’re in their own home. I make sure they receive plenty of attention, playtime, exercise, meals, fresh water, and affection, while also respecting any specific instructions or routines provided by the owner. I keep homes clean and tidy, provide regular updates and photos, and prioritize making both pets and owners feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while away.

“My 2 dogs were very happy with Kate. I was able to enjoy my visit and know they were loved and cared for. She followed any instructions I left to the T.”

Sherry D.

“Evan was attentive to the boys, giving them lots of pets and cuddles, and he followed my recommended schedule and instructions precisely! Great communication throughout and the pups would love to have Evan as a dogsitter again in the future! Thank you for being there for them while we were away.”

Jason N.

“We absolutely LOVED Lucas! Even Bobby Cat loved him and and Bobby doesn’t like anybody! This was the first time we have ever left our boys with a stranger. We did a meet and greet with Lucas several days before we left and our beasties all went crazy over him. I trust their instincts over anything. Lucas sent us pictures and messages daily. I felt comfortable and confident that the boys were in good hands, and able to relax and enjoy myself. The entire experience was great! Lucas will be our “go-to guy” for future travel!”

About: I’m 69 years old, and have had dogs, cats, birds, bunnies, ducks, hamsters, bearded dragons and a gecko for pets as well as fish! I can provide several references from people I have cared for their pets. I love all animals. I do work part time 9-1:30 M-F but will be able to take care of your pet before work and then after and through the night. I’m very trust worthy and would love the opportunity to care for your pets I’m currently working part time and would have plenty of time to care for your pet before and after work. I’m also available to spend the nights when needed. I provide in your home sitting only. I feel keeping your pet in their home in their familiar surroundings is much less stressful on them. I will provide as much love and cuddles as they will allow. My typical day during the week would consist of me getting up early enough to let your pet out to potty, feed and water them and play a little while. Then I would go to work till 12:30/1:30, go back to your house and repeat the morning routine unless your pet does not eat again in the afternoon, play and cuddle as much as your pet wants. If your pet sleeps with you, they are more than welcome to sleep with me too.

About: I love all animals. I’ve primarily had rescue cats & dogs and wish I could save them all. I’ve bottle fed abandoned kittens and rescued pregnant cats. I have experience with an abandoned, abused and anxious dog who needed patience and compassion on a daily basis. I’ve taken care of a variety of dogs from tiny chihuahua’s to large labradors & Dobermans. Each one with a personality all their own. I’m retired and I’m looking for a meaningful way to fill my days. I’m available most of the time, although I do love traveling when I can. I will follow every instruction you have in order to provide exceptional care for your pet in your home. My Rover reputation is based on you & your pets happiness!

About: I have hands on, everyday experience caring for four Golden Retrievers of my own. Managing a multi dog household has given me skills in canine schedule structure, supervision, and understanding of different personalities and energy levels. I also have experience caring for infant puppies, including feeding schedules, potty training foundations, crate introduction, and the patience that can sometimes be needed during those important early development stages. I’m comfortable maintaining routines, reinforcing basic training, and providing both high-energy play and calm, attentive care. Your pet will be treated like part of my family: safe, loved, and well cared for! I work remotely full time, so I am very flexible and am able to meet you and your schedule requests, whether it be for in-home visits, walk outing, or overnight stays. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. I follow all feeding schedules, potty breaks, exercise routines, and any specific instructions closely to make sure your pet feels comfortable and secure in their familiar environment. I provide plenty of attention, playtime, and affection while also reinforcing any training or household rules you have in place. I’m respectful of your home, keep everything clean and organized, and always send regular updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is happy and well cared for while you’re away.
