“Nikisha did a great job checking in on our cats. She did everything we asked and provided a thorough summary of her visits, including photos. We recommend Nikisha!”


About: I’ve cared for my 2 big babies for about 8 years now. At first I had only one dog, then she got pregnant and I helped deliver all her babies at home. We found homes for all of them, but we kept one. So now they are mother and daughter duo. I’m currently open to work from 10 am to 5 pm from Monday through Friday. Please consider me to take care of your fur baby when you’re away from home. At home I have two loving dogs that are freed to roam everywhere. They are friendly with people just not so much other fur babies.
About: I was raised with cats and dogs ever since I was a little kid. I can’t recall a time in my life where there wasn’t a furry friend around. Many of my pets I’ve had since they were babies until old age, so I have experience with animals of all age groups as well as breeds as small as chihuahuas to large Siberian huskies. I also have experience giving medications from my time watching a cavapoo with heart and lung issues. I’ve been off work the past 4 months because I recently had a baby girl and she loves our pets at home, but I want to get us out of the house more and what better way to do that than meeting new furry friends! I’m very respectful of peoples spaces and routines and always leave a space exactly as it was. I am willing and able to do whatever needs to be done to ensure the best care I am capable of providing
About: I’m dependable, attentive, and genuinely love spending time with animals. I’ll make sure your pup feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s walks, feeding, playtime, or just extra cuddles and attention, I’ll treat your dog like family. I understand how important peace of mind is when leaving your pet with someone, and I’ll always keep you updated so you feel confident they’re in good hands! My availability is very flexible! I’m available Monday through Friday after 2 PM, and I’m open anytime on Saturdays and Sundays. During the summer months, especially June and July, my schedule is even more open, allowing for greater flexibility to care for your pets whenever needed. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for whether they’re in my home or their own. I follow each pet’s usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications if needed, and plenty of attention and affection. I keep a clean, calm, and pet-friendly environment, and I always make safety a priority by supervising pets closely, securing doors and gates, and making sure they feel relaxed and stress-free. I also keep owners updated with messages and photos so they can feel confident their pet is in good hands.
About: I’ve been a true dog-and-cat person since junior high. Growing up, I was basically the “head zookeeper” of our home (2 dogs, 2 cats!), so I’m comfortable with all kinds of personalities, energy levels, and quirks.Now, as a full-time WFH professional based in San Jose, I’m home all day—meaning your pup gets constant attention, care, and companionship. I don’t just watch dogs—I treat them like family from the moment they walk through the door. ❤️ The "SJC Convenience" 🛫 Traveling soon? I’m located in San Jose, just about 20 minutes from San Jose Mineta International Airport, making drop-off easy and convenient on your way to the airport.I’m also happy to accommodate last-minute bookings and unexpected travel plans—if your trip comes up suddenly, you can count on me for reliable care. This is your dog’s second home ❤️ - Total Supervison: I’m home 24/7. No lonely pups here! 🏠 - Built-in Bestie: Our friendly Cockapoo puppy is always down to play. 🐩 - Same-Day Ready: Urgent daycare or emergency boarding? No problem. ⚡ - Photo Updates: I’ll send plenty of pics so you can relax on your trip. 📸 I have a remote job, so your dog will have 24/5 companionship and supervision during the week. I offer boarding Monday through Friday and are always open for last-minute or same-day bookings for those urgent needs. I also provide walking services when I don’t have pups boarding at home. While I focus on weekdays, I’m happy to discuss weekend care for my regular, returning clients! Safety is my top priority, and since I’m home full-time, I’m always there to keep a close eye on everyone. I have a friendly young Cockapoo in our apartment, but I’m very careful about how dogs interact. If your pup is a bit shy or just isn't in the mood to meet our puppy, I can easily give them their own dedicated room to relax in so they feel completely comfortable and at ease. I’m also happy to follow whatever routine your dog is used to at home. If you prefer they be crated for naps or bedtime, I can definitely make that happen. Whether they are playing with our pup or enjoying some quiet time, they’ll be treated like a member of our family the whole time they are here.

“I would highly recommend Zhengjun when considering someone to take care of your pet. Zhengjun stepped up and took over for my original sitter when that arrangement didn’t work out properly. Without Zhengjun’s assistance we would have been in a real predicament. So thank you Zhengjun for stepping up and saving the day!!”

“Qi (Jen) was great. We got pics and updates everyday. There was one mishap where the water bowl wasn’t properly placed but it was all fixed- minor miscommunication. Will definitely use her again in the future!”

“We cant be more than happy to have Anh taking care of our dogs for the holidays she was always on time and got many pictures and making sure our babies were safe while we were gone . I feel very confident and happy with her been so professional and response all the time . I hope she continue helping us in the near futures .”


About: Animal lover here! I am loving and attentive and can read animal body language very well. I will never push an animals boundaries and make sure they are loved and respected appropriately. Fun fact! I always wanted to be a vet since I was a little kid so I naturally have a huge passion for taking care and rescuing animals. I definitely have more cat experience than dog but I have worked with dogs before and grew up with 4 different dogs in my household. My mom has a dog with behavioral issues that I have taken care of multiple times so naturally I know how to read dog body language pretty well. I have rescued a one dog stray and about 8 cat/kitten strays. So on that, Thank you for considering me as your pet sitter and I will take care of your animal as if it were my own 🖤 I am currently full time working Tuesday-Saturday 9:30 am - 6:00 pm. I can absolutely do mornings and evenings before and after my shifts and I usually have full availability all Sunday Monday if get plenty notice ahead of time. I can do over nights for Saturdays and Sundays as well. I will make sure your animals are safe and loved and cared for appropriately. I am a very accommodating care giver so whatever special needs your animal has I have no issue with. I have been a cat owner for ten years now as well as I have also taken care of dogs for family. Safety is the number one priority for your animals and I promise I will treat as my own.
About: Animals have always been a big part of my life. I’ve cared for an Akita dog and cats since they were just seven weeks old, and I currently look after a one-year-old corn snake and two four-year-old river turtles. I understand that every pet has its own routine, preferences, and comfort zone, and I’m patient and attentive to those individual needs. I treat every animal as if they were my own. I communicate clearly with pet parents, provide regular photo updates, and make sure you always feel at ease while you’re away. Your pets’ happiness and safety always come first — and I’ll do everything I can to make sure they feel loved and well cared for. I can provide pet care on weekdays, both early mornings and late nights, with flexibility on weekends to fit your schedule and your pets routine! At your home, I make sure your pet’s space stays familiar and comforting. I follow their usual schedule for feeding, play, and rest, keep litter boxes and living areas clean, and provide companionship and reassurance while you’re away. I also send regular updates and photos so you can feel at ease knowing your pet is happy and well cared for.
“Michele's love for cats is quite evident. She cared for my kitty like one of her own. Every day she sent lots of pictures a very detailed report of her visits. All instructions were followed to the letter including daily photo documentation of treats, pets, clean litterbox, and full food and water bowls. I would be happy to have her care for my cat again and can highly recommend her for any other lovers of special felines.”

“Son is an excellent choice if you need someone to watch your dog. Not only does he go above and beyond with care, my dog came back in better shape and with better leash manners because of him. He knows exactly what he’s doing when caring for big and small dogs and treats them like his own. I will Definitely use his services if I were to go out of town again!”

“This was our first experience using Rover, and we’re so glad we had Emily check in on our cat, Billy. Billy is a timid and shy boy, so we were pleasantly surprised by how quickly he warmed up to Emily. She took great care of him and made sure he was doing well while we were away. We truly appreciated her attentiveness and care.”

“Sheela was amazing! She was very communicative, proactive and flexible! She sent me updates all the time and made me feel at ease. She took very good care of Nico and Tuco. I could tell from the pictures she took my babies weren't stressed and in good hands. I would highly recommend her! :))”

“Megan was awesome! She checked in on our kitties at our apartment and they seemed to be pretty comfortable around her, which was a pleasant surprise (anybody who has cats knows how skittish they can be). Thank you so much!”

“Chris has been amazing to work with. He is very attentive to our cat Cooney and leaves a very detailed summary after each visit. I had to make a few last minute changes to the original schedule days and he accommodated with no issues. Took lots of pictures and videos to keep us updated, and was very responsive.”

About: My spouse and I are proud parents to three Golden Retrievers—Mango (13), Goldie (8), and Lychee (7). We love taking them out on adventures and watching them explore! With over 10 years of experience living with multiple dogs, we know just how to keep pups happy and comfortable. Our home also has a fenced backyard where dogs can run, play, and enjoy the outdoors anytime. I am an Assistant Professor in Kinesiology and work half time at home, and my spouse work in IT who works from home from time to time. We enjoy outdoor times, especially walking the puppies! Our time is very flexible and mainly at home to work and walk the dogs! We have a crated area for the three furry goldens, with plenty of toys and they will enjoy time playing together. Your dog will be taken out regularly for a walk, there is a trail right outside our house.

About: After a few years away working as an engineer, I’ve realized my true passion isn’t in front of a computer, it’s with dogs! I was a top-rated, 5-star sitter in Fremont back in 2016-2017 with 38 repeat clients, and I am so excited to officially reopen my doors to the furry community. With over 20 years of experience living with and caring for dogs, I provide a "home away from home" where your pup is treated like family. Meet the Resident Pack I am a proud "dog mom" to two friendly pups who love making new friends: • Kaka: My sweet 11-year-old rescue poodle mix (13 lbs). He has a crippled leg, so I am very experienced in caring for seniors or dogs with special physical needs. • Panda: My energetic 4-year-old Bernedoodle. He’s a "pandemic puppy" who is well-socialized and ready to play! The "Five-Star" Backyard & Home Your dog will have the ultimate vacation in our 4,000 square foot home. We have plenty of indoor space for lounging and a large, fully fenced backyard for fresh air and supervised playtime. Personalized Care & Activity • Constant Supervision: I work remotely, meaning someone is almost always home to provide cuddles, bathroom breaks, and attention. • Active Lifestyle: We love staying active! Your pup will enjoy frequent walks and plenty of engagement. • Safety First: Because of my engineering background, I am detail-oriented and highly organized when it comes to feeding schedules and safety protocols. I can’t wait to meet your pup and give them a fun, safe, and loving stay! Our routine is highly flexible! Whether your pup is a high-energy "pandemic dog" like my Panda or a senior who needs a gentler pace like my 13lb rescue, Kaka, I easily adjust walk lengths and play styles to match their specific energy and physical abilities. A Day in the Life at Our Home Because we work a hybrid schedule, pet care is seamlessly integrated into our day. Your dog will never be just a "task"—they are part of the family. • 8:30 AM | Morning Adventure: We kick off the day with a morning walk, followed by a nutritious brunch. • Mid-Day | Garden Play: Around noon, I provide supervised "yard breaks" in our large, fenced backyard for fresh air and sniffing. • Late Afternoon | Neighborhood Stroll: We head out for a second neighborhood walk, followed by dinner service. • Evening | Last Call: Before bedtime, we have one final backyard break to ensure everyone is settled and comfortable. Total Freedom: Your dog has the run of the house! They are welcome in any of the 4,000 sq. ft. of indoor space. Whether they want to sunbathe by a window or snooze near my desk while I work, they will have plenty of room to feel at home. Safety-First, Premium Care Your pet’s safety and comfort are my absolute priorities. I provide a secure, high-standard environment designed for total peace of mind. • Supervised Freedom: Your dog has full access to our 4,000 sq. ft. home and a large, securely fenced backyard. I personally supervise all outdoor time to ensure every guest is safe and happy. • Proactive Security: For added protection, I have security cameras monitoring the property and dog gates that can be installed as needed to create separate, safe zones for different energy levels. • Constant Companionship: Because we work a hybrid schedule, there is almost always an adult present. This allows for frequent check-ins, bathroom breaks, and 24/7 attention. • Disciplined Care: I am highly attentive to feeding schedules, medication, and specific care instructions. Whether it's managing a senior dog’s mobility (like my rescue, Kaka) or a high-energy pup’s needs, I follow your instructions to the letter.
About: I grew up surrounded by animals — fish, parrots, turtles, dogs, and cats, so caring for animals has always felt natural to me. Over the years I’ve looked after friends pets too and they keep asking me back — which I think says more than anything🤓 6 years ago I took in a stray cat, who is my best friend now. Earning his trust slowly has taught me a lot about patience and reading what they actually need! Your pet will get my full attention, a warm presence, and most importantly, someone who genuinely enjoys spending time with them🥰 I currently work fully remote, which means I’m home almost all day and flexible with pet care. I can check in on pets throughout the day, stick to their routine, and give them attention whenever they need! I have a fenced front and back yard, perfect for safe outdoor time and neighborhood walks. I have two cats at home, one 6 years old, and another 3 years old. So if your cat is visiting and needs company, they’ve got built in friends☺️ If you prefer I come to you to check on your pets or take them for a walk, I’d be more than happy to do that too and will be very respectful of the space.
Berryessa pet parents share their Rover experiences
Sheela was amazing! She was very communicative, proactive and flexible! She sent me updates all the time and made me feel at ease. She took very good care of Nico and Tuco. I could tell from the pictures she took my babies weren't stressed and in good hands. I would highly recommend her! :))

Christina was absolutely wonderful with Blu and Squeaky while I was away. She gave Blu his medications, kept a close eye on him, and made sure he was comfortable and cared for. She was also very attentive with Squeaky, including brushing her and giving her plenty of love and attention. What really stood out was how thoughtful and detailed Christina was during each visit. She provided thorough updates, photos, and notes about how both cats were doing, including changes in Blu’s appetite, behavior, and bathroom habits. It gave me a lot of peace of mind knowing she was paying such close attention. Blu requires extra care right now, and Christina handled everything with patience, gentleness, and compassion. She cared for both cats the way I would myself, which means a lot. I would absolutely recommend Christina to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, attentive, and genuinely caring.

This was second time Sasha took wonderful care of Luna while we were away. She followed all instructions carefully, kept us updated, and regularly shared photos, which gave us great peace of mind. Even when she had a sudden emergency, she communicated right away and still made sure Luna was taken care of — something we really appreciated. Sasha is responsible, thoughtful, and we always feel relaxed knowing Luna is in her care. We would happily trust her again and highly recommend her!

I couldn’t have asked for better care for my cats. Queenie handled everything seamlessly, including administering medicine to my eldest throughout the entire stay. She’s reliable and wonderfully communicative, her check-in notes were so funny and sweet that I almost didn’t miss being home. It’s clear she has a real love for animals.

Nikisha was amazing with my cat and even checked in on my elderly leopard gecko, making sure she had clean water, while I was away for the weekend! My cat is super needy and gets so sad when I'm away for even a day, but she sent lots of cute photos of him and gave him lots of pets and attention, so I was able to feel at ease while I was away! Would give more than 5 stars if I could.

Yumeng is an amazing cat sitter — I couldn’t have asked for better care for Hoohoo over the 5 days she watched him. She sent detailed daily updates with really nice photos and videos that always reassured me and kept me in the loop. She clearly knows cats and is genuinely attentive. She spent quality time playing with Hoohoo, kept everything clean (including cleaning up poops), and made sure he was well-fed with his wet food. She even noticed and handled a hair knot and carefully helped cut it out, which I really appreciated. Most importantly, Hoohoo absolutely loved her — he purred every time he saw Yumeng, which says it all. I’m very grateful for everything she did and will definitely work with her again next time. Highly recommend!

Karina was amazing with Tchitcha. She is very patient, calm, and flexible, which made the whole experience stress-free. She followed all instructions carefully, communicated well, and took great care of her. We felt very comfortable knowing Tchitcha was in such good hands. Highly recommend!

My cat is shy and feels threatened by strangers in the house. Veronica seems to have a great understanding of cats and with her gentle, non threatening ways, she had my cat actually willingly come to her. I am grateful for the special care my cat received in our absence from Veronica.
Pei-Hsuan (Amanda) and her husband are wonderful pet sitters! It’s always nerve wracking looking for a new cat sitter for my two kitties who are getting older and don’t take to strangers easily (one being very timid and the other being very grouchy). Amanda and her husband are very patient, responsive, and diligent. I’m so glad that they were the ones who looked after my kitties. Their attention to detail allowed me to travel at ease knowing my cats are well taken care of. One of my cats usually leaves hairballs or scarf and barf multiple times when I travel, and they cleaned so much while I was gone because I came back to a very clean home with no hairballs or dry vomit stains in sight. Both cats were in good health and happy when I came back. I believe they’ve earned both cats’ trust and acceptance. I also enjoyed the many pictures from the Rover visit cards, and seeing that the cats being played with, and doing well throughout my trip.
