“Truly exceptional in every way! We were pretty nervous about using rover for in-house sitting for the first time but Alexis made us feel so comfortable and made everything seamless. Most importantly, Bucky loved her right away and he is an excellent judge of character ☺️. Alexis sent lots of photos and even video updates so we knew he was doing great and being well cared for every day. It takes a special person to take on a very large dog in a new space and Alexis was everything we could hope for in a sitter. And she left our home looking perfect too! So grateful for her care and would highly recommend her to anyone who is looking for a kind, considerate, and extremely competent sitter for their fur baby.”
“Mallory is Wonderful!! This is our second time having Mallory over and she took such great care of our fur baby Bella. She even picked up and ensured Bella was given her eye drops daily. Mallory spent 8 days and 9 nights staying in our home and we are looking forward to having her back. We felt comfortable knowing Mallory was caring, gentle, and patient with Bella. 100 OUT 100 and highly recommend her!”
“Javier is very responsible and communicative. He watched my dog for a night and he did everything correct. My dog loved him and enjoyed being near him as I could see from the photos he sent me. I definitely recommend Javier!”
“Natalie was on time and came prepared with treats and balls (since Barley's favorite sport is balls). She walked and played with Barley and kept us abreast of our little one with pictures throughout the time we were away. We had Natalie for only four hours. If we ever get back to the area and need a dog sitter, we would definitely book her again.”
“We are very satisfied with the care that Nicole gave our pets! We booked a last minute trip and reached out to Nicole to stay in our home with our cat and dog. She was quick to respond and came for a meet and greet the next day. While we were away she took great care of our animals and home and sent plenty of pictures and updates. We would definitely recommend her and plan to use her services again in the future!”
“Jenna is amazing! Jenna stayed at my house with my two dogs Luna and Penny while I was out of town at a work conference. Right when she arrived, she sent me an update, and sent lots of photos and updates throughout her entire stay. She was so sweet, attentive, and I could tell by the photos that my girls were super stoked to have her. Jenna took my pups on walks multiple times throughout the day, even when the weather was gross and rainy. When I came home, my dogs were completely relaxed and resting. Jenna even left a super sweet gift of a of drawing of my dogs, and a bag of trinkets that truly felt like it was given to me by an old friend. I’ll be reaching out to Jenna any time I need some help with my pups, and would recommend her to any of my friends and family.”
About: I would love an opportunity to provide care for your pet. I have over 10 years of experience caring for pets, training, etc. so I am more than qualified to take care of your pet! I am planning on providing pet care as my job, so I am pretty available…I am interested in daily walks as well as overnight care.. I provide loving and nurturing care in the comfort of the pets home. I was a nanny so I am always mindful of keeping the home safe and tidy!
“Jeanette is professional, thorough with following instructions, flexible, and was great with our doggie. We had a minor schedule change at the last minute, and she was incredibly supportive. Our fur fluffers loved her the minute she walked in the door. Highly recommend.”
“Sonia was fantastic with our dog. It was a huge comfort having someone who is so experienced with veterinary medicine taking care of our older frenchie with some health issues. Highly recommend”
“We hired Lauren to watch our three pups in our home. One of our dogs is a senior with advanced Cushing's Disease and is diabetic. It's been so long since we were able to get away and enjoy ourselves for an extended period of time because of Baxter's medical issues. We needed someone to come and stay in our home and have the knowledge and ability to respond to his medical needs as well as meet the needs of our other two pups. Lauren did all of that for us. She's a professional through and through, wonderful personality and incredibly flexible with us. It's such a relief to know our pets are in her hands so we can enjoy our time away. We feel so lucky to have found her! She's the best!”
“She was a very good pet sitter for our two dogs and tortoise. Daily texts back and forth with all questions answered within several minutes. We had a wonderful week long vacation especially because we knew they were well taken care of. Highly recommend!”
About: I have been caring for dogs, both young and old, my entire life. Whether you have a young pup, an old dog with special needs, or anywhere in between - they will be in good hands. I am home full-time in a large spacious apartment near the panhandle/golden gate park, with a large gated back yard. Your dog will have all of the attention and room it needs to play (inside or out), take a nap on the couch, etc. I'm a dog lover through-and through. Your best friend will feel like he/she is at her home away from home when she stays with me. I'm happy to accommodate your dogs needs, whether it's medication, longer walks in the park, etc. Please don't hesitate to reach out to me with any questions!
“Christina and everyone was great. The dogs loved the care and companionship. I received daily photos, videos, and updates. I have a dog that requires insulin and they were able to give excellent care to him. I highly recommend them.”
About: I grew up with German Shepherds and pugs, and have over 20 years of experience with all breeds, from tiny to huge! I learned the importance of basic training very early, as we always had large dogs for family security. I try to only take one dog at a time (unless they are siblings of course!) so they have my undivided attention and are treated like a member of my family. My Bernese Mountain Dog, Gertie, is almost 10, and is a great help with other dogs. She knows many commands, can walk off-leash, and is friendly and respectful. I currently work from home, so I am home most days. I have a large, fenced yard with two walkways that are also both fenced, and live next door to a big, dog-friendly park. Boarding is my most popular service, and I enjoy really getting to know your pup. Your dog will have constant access to my yard, home, water, sofa, and beds during their stay. I will never be away from the house for more than an hour or two to run errands (and I usually just take them with me!).
About: I’ve had a dog as part of the family for as long as I can remember. I’ve cared for my own childhood outside country dogs to indoor pampered pups of my own. I’d love to help provide care to your pups as well as peace of mind knowing they’ll be loved just as much as you do. My schedule is pretty flexible as a stay at home mom. I get out frequently for walks with my own pup and am happy to bring her along for play or keep my individual undivided attention on your pups. Having dogs of my own I’m used to crating dogs and letting them out for play and walks. I’m happy to accommodate any needs you may have that will better help care for your pet.
“Outstanding experience with Julia. Went above and beyond to care for my pup, who has separation anxiety. She took my girl out for a beautiful hike and even handled a mixup with my Airbnb host. Absolutely recommend Julia for your pet care needs.”
About: I love dogs and would love to have a furry friend keep me company! I grew up with a dog and now days I love watching my “nephew” Yukon who is a golden retriever lab mix! I work from home full time and can hang out with your dog at home! I love taking a walk or short hike during my lunch break! I don’t have a fenced yard so they would mostly hang out with me indoors or outside with me if the weather is nice. Spacious area downstairs that the dog can run and play.

John T.
“One of my favorite things about John is how much of a dog person he is. Not only because I get tagged in all the best dog memes but also because he takes THE BEST care of my dog Ginger. She's a 5 year old boxer who means the whole world to me. I get anxiety about leaving her but thankfully John has been such a wonderful doggo sitter for me whenever I do. No matter how old he gets you can always find him sprawled out on the floor with his childhood dogs giving them hugs and kisses. A true dog lover right there! When John has Ginger he loves to takes her for walks (he's super outdoorsy), gives her a ton of love, is patient with her, makes sure she is safe and is an overall responsible dog sitter. I really would not trust just anyone with my Ginger girl but John is a definite exception whom I highly recommend!”

Jake G.
“Jake took great care of our dogs, was reliable, showed up on time, and kept in contact with us. I'd use him again.”
Caitlin M.
“Caitlin has been an exceptional dog walker for my Alaskan Husky, Luna. From the start, she proved to be incredibly reliable and dependable-always punctual and communicative, which gave me peace of mind. She approached my dog with genuine care and patience, quickly building a strong bond. Caitlin consistently demonstrated professionalism, from handling every walk responsibly to updating me with feedback afterward. My Luna genuinely looks forward to her visits, which says a lot about the positive connection they share. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Caitlin to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate dog walker. I'll definitely be using her services again!”

Ryan really is fantastic. He spent a lot of time with our dogs while we were away and took great care of them. He’s reliable, communicated well, sent pics, left everything in order, and we would feel very comfortable leaving our “kids” in his care any time again. Thanks so much Ryan!
Adam was wonderful to work with! He was always kind and prompt in his communication. He spent time getting to know our dog before we left so we felt very comfortable with the arrangement, and was flexible and able to work around his work/school schedule to provide the best care possible for our dog. He stayed at our house while we were on vacation and we came home to a spotless and well taken care of house, as well as a happy and healthy dog! We highly recommend Adam for any of your dog-sitting needs.
Jennefer did an excellent job taking care of my high energy pup and adult cat! She was very professional and thoughtful, kept me updated with photos while I was away, and gave my pets the exercise and love they needed! Jennefer was able to confidently handle my high energy, large shepherd. She asked thoughtful questions about our training strategies and kept me updated about the mood and activities of both pets. I came home to a clean house and two relaxed and happy pets. Thanks, Jennefer!
Lucas was an amazing dog sitter! After moving to the Monterey area he watched our dogs over the holidays and was very thorough, respectful, and communicative. He always asked questions and gave us updates, going above and beyond what we asked. Hands down the best dog/house sitter we have used in the 4+ years of using rover!
Lynayah was a wonderful sitter! 10/10 recommend using her for your next trip. She kept us updated on all things dog related and took great care of our wonderful pup!! He was in great spirits when we got home from our trip and was tired out from his weekend of fun activities. We will definitely be using Lynayah for any of our upcoming dog sitting needs. Thank you Lynayah so much for taking care of our pup and providing him with so much love!❤️
