About: Hi, I’m Daniel – Your pet’s New Best Friend! As a lifelong dog lover with 7yrs of experience caring for dogs of all sizes and breeds, I understand the importance of reliable, loving care for your furry family members. Whether your pup needs a brisk walk, engaging playtime, or cuddles on the couch, I’m here to help! What I Offer: • Dog Walking: Safe, energetic walks tailored to your dog’s needs. • Drop in Visits: Feeding, playtime, and a thorough check-in to ensure your pup is happy and healthy. • Overnight Stays: Providing a cozy, stress free environment when you’re away. Why Choose Me? • Experience with all breeds, from playful puppies to senior dogs. •. Experience working at Namaste dog spa in Belmont, California, reference upon request. • Passionate about positive reinforcement and keeping tails wagging! A Little About Me: I’m based in Pinole Shores and spend my free time exploring local parks and trails, often with my own dogs, Bailey and her daughter Bella, by my side. I treat every dog I care for as if they’re my own, prioritizing their safety, comfort, and happiness. Let’s chat to see how I can help make your pup’s day brighter! I look forward to meeting you and your four-legged friend. Let me know if you’d like to add personal touches or adjust this further! I live for my pets, taking time off from working 9-5. You can find me either at home or out with my pups exploring a park or trail. I treat pets as if they’re my own, and will cater to any specific requests. At my own home my pups are in the house and when they want to go out to use the bathroom they go in my gated back yard.
About: I am a loving and friendly dog sitter! I grew up with two dogs, a poodle and a Chihuahua. My family currently has a bull terrier that I love very much. I also take care of my best friend's dog when she is out of town. I love dogs and going on walks so this combination is perfect for me. I am currently a nanny to one of nephews as needed but I am free every day during the summer to take care of your furry babies. I make sure I read their cues of needing water/food, when they need to pee/poop, when they're overstimulated, stressed, or happy. I also make sure to pet them and show them love by scratching them, patting them, and rubbing them. I also follow any schedule that is given to me to make sure they stick to their normal routine.
About: Growing up with dogs (Pit Bulls, Miniature Dachsund, a Boxer, & more), I remain a dog loving person as an adult! I’ve been a Rover sitter since 2021 and have served as a foster home for senior dogs through Muttville (looking after a Mini Doberman Pinscher and a Shiba Inu - Basenji mix). You can also find me on Wag. I am generally fully available for all services on weekends. On weekdays, I do not provide boarding and only accept day care requests starting after 3 PM. In my home, dogs are allowed on our furniture with exception to our bed. I have big floofy cushions that I leave throughout the house so dogs have lots of napping options. I let dogs sleep wherever they like (with exception to our bed) – for some dogs this has meant on top of a pile of blankets on a seat in our living room, for others this means on a floor cushion or bed directly next to our human bed. I am very accustomed to picky eaters (and even picky drinkers!), and am used to boiling chicken or salmon with some rice for the especially picky ones. I am experienced in administering oral medications to dogs, including through syringes. I will follow whatever rules you set for your home!
“We had been looking for a dog walker for a while but after meeting Patti we found exactly what we wanted. She is very friendly, trustworthy and dependable. Patti was thorough on making sure our dogs were cared for in case of an emergency by asking for vet information and emergency vet contacts. On our first trial session with Patti one of our dogs was sprayed by a skunk the nite before and we did our best to remove the skunk smell but it still had a strong oder that lingered. Patti was understanding of the situation and managed to still help us out and walked and feed our pups! We are so grateful and appreciative of her help. She even was kind enough to bring in our packages left at our door. She was on time and was able to manage walking both our Alaskan Huskies! Patti has all the attributes you would want in someone to take care of your fur family members. We highly recommended Patti!”
About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life. Growing up we had 12 Dobermans on our property. Most of my childhood involves caring for them. Since then I’ve owned dogs, and worked on other platforms taking care of and walking other animals. You can trust your fur baby will be in the best of care. I am a stay at home mom, I am very flexible with your and your pets needs. I am open to any time you need me. I am very careful when dogs are in my home. I know being away from home can be scary for them. I don’t leave doors open- I treat every dog as if they could be runners. I try my best to relieve their anxiety and give them that extra attention or space.
About: I am experienced caring for dogs, cats, birds and other pets! I am available for dog walking and house sits for dogs, cats, or other animals. Currently, I am only able to host dogs and small animals in my home. I am comfortable with all breeds and ages of dogs. I work from home where I spend as much time as possible with my dog and 3 parakeets. My dog Olive loves other dogs so she can help your pet adjust to our house during his or her stay. I am diligent about pet care. My yard is not fenced, so I take the dogs on several short on-leash walks around the yard and at least one longer walk during the day, usually in the evening.
“Michael did a fantastic job - he had no trouble with our complicated smart home instructions and had no issues giving our cat his medication. Will request him every time we go out of town.”
About: I grew up with all kinds of animals and have always taken care of a dog and/or cat. Friends, family and neighbors have often relied on me to walk their dog or pet sit. I'm also a teacher and am responsible and reliable. I'm currently a graduate student, so I have time on Wednesdays and weekends for pet sitting/walking. I currently have 2 goats and 2 cats at home, so I am comfortable with pet routines. I don't have space in my home to care for your pet, but I can do drop in visits and dog walks in your home/neighborhood.
About: Funny enough, I didn’t grow up as a dog person! I was born and raised in San Francisco and spent most of my life living in an apartment where pets weren’t allowed. I actually grew up being afraid of dogs—I still remember running away from a tiny poodle as a kid! That all started to change when my friends began getting fur babies of their own. The more time I spent around their dogs, the more I realized how sweet, loving, and full of personality they were. Slowly, that fear disappeared and turned into a genuine love for dogs. Before I knew it, I was getting attached to every pup I met! When my brother and sister-in-law got their Corgi in 2022, I absolutely fell in love with him. I honestly lost count of how many times I visited them just to see their pup! I was always happy to offer to babysit whenever they were away, which gave me more hands-on experience caring for a dog on my own. Over the past 5 years, I’ve helped care for and dogsit for family and friends, and eventually, I knew I wanted a fur baby of my own. I’m now a proud dog mom to a Samoyed who I’ve raised since he was just 9 weeks old. He’s a little over 1.5 years old now, and raising him from such a young age has taught me so much about puppy care, routines, feeding, walks, playtime, training, patience, and handling all that puppy energy! My boyfriend also has a Boston Terrier, so our household is currently home to two very different pups—my big, fluffy Samoyed and his much smaller Boston Terrier. Living with and caring for both of them every day has given me experience managing multiple dogs with different personalities, sizes, energy levels, and needs. It has also taught me that every dog is different, and getting to know their individual quirks and personalities is one of my favorite parts of being around them. Because I know firsthand what it’s like to go from being unfamiliar with dogs to completely falling in love with them, I have a lot of patience and respect for each dog’s individual personality and comfort level. I also know how much trust it takes to leave your fur baby in someone else’s care. My goal is simple: to give your pup the same love, attention, patience, and care that I would want someone to give my own. ❤️ I work a Monday–Friday desk job and usually work remotely from home, so I’m able to be around throughout the day to give your fur baby plenty of attention, potty breaks, playtime, and companionship. My weekends are also free, which gives me even more flexibility for daycare and boarding. I occasionally need to go into the office for meetings or special projects. On those days, I typically leave early around 5:30 AM and am back home by about 2:30 PM (or earlier). My flexible schedule allows me to make pet care a natural part of my daily routine and give your fur baby plenty of love, attention, and company while they’re staying with me. Since I have two pups of our own, walks, potty breaks, feeding, playtime, and lots of doggy attention are already a regular part of my daily routine! 🐾 I live in a quiet townhome community in Hercules, just a few minutes’ walk from beautiful Refugio Valley Park—perfect for walks, fresh air, and some extra sniffing time! My home is a two-story townhome with a fenced backyard, giving the pups a secure outdoor space for potty breaks and supervised playtime. I have two house-trained fur babies, a Samoyed and a Boston Terrier, so my home is already very dog-friendly. I also understand that every pup has their own personality and comfort level. There are baby gates throughout the house to section off different areas when needed, whether that means giving energetic pups their own space to play or providing a quieter area for those who would rather relax and lounge on the couch. Speaking of couches—pups are welcome! There are two couches with plenty of room for anyone who wants to curl up, get comfy, and make themselves at home. There are also crates in a variety of sizes, toys, and other pet supplies available when needed. For additional safety and peace of mind, my home is equipped with cameras to keep an extra eye on the pups and my home environment when needed. Safety and comfort are very important, and I’m happy to follow your pup’s normal routine, feeding schedule, crate preferences, and any specific care instructions you provide. My home is also within walking distance of Hercules Pet Hospital, which gives me additional peace of mind should veterinary care ever be needed. Ultimately, I want your pup to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they’re here—and for you to feel confident knowing they’re being cared for like one of my own. ❤️
About: I have taken care of pets for over 10 years around the world! Neighbors, friends, families and acquaintances have all trusted me with the livelihoods of their loved ones. I can administer medication, go on as many walks as needed, drive or walk to the dog park or just cuddle on the sofa if you pet loves that too! I work as a school teacher and am an online grad student but am able to come and go as I please so my schedule is quite flexible! I am very mindful of your pets care, safety and security while they are in my trust. I can crate your pet, calm them down and care for them as per your instruction.
“Bonnie was great handling a pretty complex situation where our dog had health issues (never happened before). I trust Bonnie to handle hard situations and navigating the dogs' care with empathy”
About: I have cared for pets my entire life. My family had dogs and I owned a horse that I cared for and paid for since I was 13 until I left home for college. St that point I gave her to a person that would take care of her as I would. Since that time I have adopted cats as I lived in homes that did not allow dogs . I had to get my dog time in caring for friends and neighbors dogs whenever I could I’m currently working but have a flexible schedule. Caring for or playing with your pet will be my pleasure and your gift to me. I love all dogs and cats but will admit I miss having a dog of my own I can care for any cat in my home. I would prefer to sit for dogs in their own environment. I will care for your friends with just as much love and attention as you yourself would
About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and have had three of my own, which has helped me understand their different personalities, routines, and needs. I regularly take care of my cousin’s Husky and Shih Tzu when she’s busy, making sure they’re fed, exercised, and comfortable. I also care for my boyfriend’s cat at my home whenever he’s away, including feeding, cleaning the litter box, and giving lots of attention. In addition, I’ve been feeding a stray cat in my neighborhood and even set up a small outdoor shelter for her to keep her safe and warm. Caring for animals has always come naturally to me, and I truly enjoy making sure they feel loved and cared for. 🐾 I have classes only on Tuesdays and Thursdays, so I’m free the rest of the week to hang out with furry friends and give them lots of love and attention. I'm available for in-home visits on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays,s and Saturdays all day. I'm also available for walks on those same days. I make sure pets feel safe and comfortable in my home or theirs. I keep their space clean, provide fresh food and water, and give plenty of attention and affection. I follow any instructions from the owner carefully, and I create a calm, secure environment so pets feel happy and relaxed while in my care.
About: I appreciate the love and energy that dogs bring into one’s life! I had five dogs at a young age, and I grew up with one dog for 10 years. Although I don’t have professional training, I tend to care for pets as if they were my own! I am currently working full-time Monday through Friday, so my availability starts after 4:30pm. My weekend availabilities are more flexible. I am always open to ideas and feedback! I always go by what you (the owner) prefers when it comes to pet care. When at home, I make sure the pet is in a visible area, and I make sure there aren’t any hazards that are easily reached by the pet. If the dog requires specific attention, I will make sure to provide the needed attention. I also make sure to send owners picture updates! :)
About: I love dogs and i like to be arround them, I am at home most of the time, take care my dog is really fun and i enjoy it very much and i want mikey get new friends I am retired and love spending my free time with animals! I am available on short notice and would love to help you with your pets needs. I will take care of your babies like they are my own. I will make them feel safe and loved, as well as make sure they have everything they need while you are away.
“As always, Harold has such a good attitude when caring for our special needs girl - Zulu absolutely adores his company & helping her potty midday while Mom & Dad are at work! Highly recommend for all kinds of pets, but especially senior & disabled dogs like our paraplegic chocolate lab”
About: Local to Bay Area/Crockett for 2026 holiday sitting — I am very interested in providing my services ASAP, please reach out if you’re interested in booking! Happy to answer any and all questions. Thanks. Hi friend! I am an animal lover through and through and I’d love to better utilize my flexibility by being a compassionate resource to those pets who need some extra love, attention, support, exercise, or fresh air when you’re simply not as available as you wish you could be. I have been entrusted to dogsit for several friends pups (of all sizes) and many cats, and was lucky enough to share 13 years with my dog Gunther and 12 years with my gray shorthair cat Wilbur. My darling 14-year-old kitty now gets all the extra love! I look forward to lightening your load and showing your pet the same love and attention I’d show my own! Availability flexible for now, may be more restricted in the future. I look forward to meeting your pet, please do not hesitate to ask me if you have any questions at all. ♥️ *Currently accepting requests within a ~25 mile radius of Crockett, CA - just ask!*
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Bayview-Montalvin
It was my boyfriend and I’s first time hiring a pet sitter for our dogs. We researched boarding facilities, but ultimately felt that being in the comfort of their own home was best. Our dog Digby is Initially wary of strangers (and cautiously barks loudly) but warmed up quickly to William. I absolutely recommend William and will use him again in the future. He’s trust worthy, friendly, and engaging with my dogs. He followed instructions and gave me so much peace of mind with the numerous updates and pictures. I really appreciate William helping out with my dogs on such short notice! William is definitely Hunter and Digby’s new friend. Thank you so much!
We’re so glad we found Patti! After using many different pet sitters over the years, I can genuinely say that Patti has been the most authentic and genuinely caring sitter we’ve found! She is someone you can truly trust and rely on. We were away for three weeks, and she took wonderful care of our lovely cat, Mellow through a combination of drop-in visits and house sitting. She was incredibly attentive, trustworthy, easy to work with, and most importantly, genuinely caring toward Mellow. We came home to a very happy, relaxed cat and a clean and organized home. Patti also thoughtfully kept an eye on the feral cats in our backyard and made sure their automatic feeder was refilled on time. Her rates are also reasonable, and she was incredibly accommodating with us. Since our stay was quite long and some dates fell under higher holiday rates, she kindly worked with us and adjusted the booking rates on her end, which we really appreciated. You can truly tell that Patti genuinely loves and cares about animals. We felt completely at ease knowing Mellow was with her, and we will absolutely be reaching out to her again in the future. Highly recommend!
Irina was fantastic! She was patient and kind during our meet and greet while my senior dog, Kona, warmed up to her. Kona is new to the area, so it meant a lot to find someone who made her feel comfortable and cared for. I had long days at a company training, and I was so thankful knowing my girl was being looked after. Kona looked so happy in the photos Irina sent, and I really appreciated the peace of mind. Highly recommend!
Sophia was a very respectful, responsible, and caring provider toward the needs of all of my indoor and outdoor cats. She provided us with excellent updates and pictures after every visit. I felt very confident and at ease while on vacation with Sophia as our sitter. Her services were 5 star plus.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
