“Stephen was my first “professional” dog/house sitting hire and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience for my and my 3 spoiled rescue dogs, each with their own quirks and love languages. If he’ll have us, we’d happily hire him again.”
“Cj was great! We did a meet and greet before and he was very attentive, asked questions, and got to know my pup! I had no worries leaving my pup with CJ! It’s hard to find someone that cares for your fur baby like you do, but CJ did and that made me happy! He sent pictures and updated while I was gone. Thanks CJ, looking forward to booking with you again when needed!”
“Olivia is the perfect sitter! She is very thorough and reliable, and provided pictures and updates. We were able to enjoy our vacation, knowing that our pets were in good hands.”
“Emmy was happy and relaxed when I got home -- that's all I can ask for, really :) More broadly, Elissa was responsible and communicative. I will definitely be working with her again!”
“Aimee was so wonderful with our fur baby! This was our first time using Rover and we are grateful to her for being able to care for our hyper pug last minute. She went out of her way to meet Pickles beforehand. She was attentive, sent updates, and kept our apartment tidy. Will be rebooking in the future. Many thanks again!”
About: From horses to hamsters, I’ve taken care of all kinds of animals throughout my lifetime. Animals have been an incredibly important part of my life, and I wouldn’t be the person I am today without my pets! Growing up, I’ve always had (at least 1), bully breed dog in the home, as well as a handful of foster puppies sprinkled in. I have owned horses for a decade, and currently have a spoiled cat and foster kittens. I relocated to the Bay for grad school, leaving behind my bigger animals with my family. I miss them tremendously, and would love to love on your animal as much as I can! I have a busy schedule, but can often fit in an hour walk here and there! I am able and willing to accommodate schedules as much as possible! Your home, your rules! Pets are the furry family members, and I know how important safety and piece of mind is. I want to ensure I am providing quality care in a way that leaves you (and your pet!) worry free and comfortable!
“Exceptional sitter with excellent communication and updates. She also went above and beyond in helping around the house”
“Kate is fantastic! She stayed with our high energy, puppy for 10 days and we couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. She followed our (extensive) instructions, gave daily updates/pictures, and took her on a weekend adventure. She is very professional & communicative! We will definitely be using her again for our future pet sitting needs.”
“Arianna cares about my dogs and she even got new toys for my dogs during her stay. It’s easy to communicate with her and my dogs look extremely happy when I get back home.”
About: Hello Neighbors! 🐶🐱 I am 100% WFH and have 15+ years of experience caring for pets of all kinds, from playful puppies and kittens to senior pets requiring extra love and attention. I’m patient, dependable, and attuned to animals' unique needs, ensuring they feel safe and happy while you're away. Whether it’s providing enrichment activities, administering medication, or simply giving endless cuddles, I’m here to treat your pets like they’re my own. My focus is on creating a stress-free experience for both you and your furry family! I am home full time and work part time (fully remote) which gives me the flexibility to provide dedicated care for your pets. I have plenty of time throughout the day for play, walks, and snuggles, and I can adjust my schedule to meet their specific needs. As your sitter and neighbor, I’m here to make sure your pets are happy, healthy, and loved. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets. In my home, I ensure a clean, secure, and pet-friendly environment, free of hazards and full of cozy spaces for your pets to relax. I follow your pet’s routine closely, from meals to walks, and always keep a watchful eye to ensure their safety. I keep my friendly floof Eeyore (3yr old Scottish Fold) in a separate, closed area of my home during the entirely of your pet's stay with me to ensure everyone's comfort and safety. In your home, I treat your space with the utmost respect and follow your guidelines to maintain your pet’s comfort and well-being. I communicate regularly to keep you updated, so you always know your furry family member is in good hands. Your pet’s happiness and safety are always my focus.
“Leilani cared for our dog and three cats over Christmas and did a wonderful job. Our dog is very elderly and has special needs, including twice-daily medication and specially-prepared food. Leilani was patient and understanding and sent regular updates, so I was able to relax and know he was in capable hands. Leilani took great care of our home and left it perfectly clean. We would happily have her back again!”
“Jeanette was amazing. Jake was being difficult and wouldn’t come in but Jeannette wouldn’t give up and go to bed till she finally got him in at 3AM. I felt bad and told her to go to bed, but she wouldn’t until he was in. He is usually good for her and comes in before dark,, but not this time.”
“Kirsten was fantastic house sitting with my sweet and occasionally anxious dog Scout! I received regular updates about her arrival, Scout’s activities, and meals which was such a piece of mind while I was away.”
“Meiling did an excellent job caring for our dog in our home while we were away. When we returned, Meatball was relaxed and happy. While we were away, Meiling was very communicative and shared cute photos of Meatball. We will definitely ask Meiling to house sit for Meatball again!”
“Ghazaal took great care of Bella and the house! Sent us frequent updates and multiple pics throughout the day so we wouldn’t miss our pup. The house was so clean when we got back that it seemed like no one had stayed. Thank you so much, Ghazaal! Looking forward to Bella’s next stay with you!”
“Trina has stayed with our dogs twice now. She took great care of the dogs and the house, sent daily pictures and was an excellent communicator. She even asked if she could give them a little extra grooming, and did a great job at that too. I think she has a special way with dogs, and the dogs seem to think so too.”
“If I could give more than 5 stars, I would! Robyn was absolutely incredible. She took amazing care of our dog while we were away and made the whole experience easy for us. She also kept us updated with tons of adorable photos! Communication was a breeze – Robyn was quick to respond and so easy to talk to. We could tell Yara was in safe, loving hands the entire time. Highly recommend to anyone who wants peace of mind while traveling. Thank you for going above and beyond!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats of all sizes! From my 95lb golden retriever and my grandpas 120lb giant schnauzer to my aunts 10lb chihuahua and my cat! Love any and all pets and will devote my full attention to them! I’m an active college student (currently at home for summer break!), so I can always squeeze in some pet time throughout the day! Also have lots of free time on the weekends and evenings. I will always be respectful for your spaces and belongings! Will only interact with the pet and nothing more. It’ll be like I was never there!
“Carolina was amazing! I really appreciated her attention to detail - from the moment she showed up with her own form to fill in for the meet and greet, to inquiring how often we want to be contacted, and to the way she left the home (spotless!). She’s amazing, our dog clearly had a great time. We will absolutely be using her again!”
“We were very lucky to have Shea as a pet sitter! Leo was happy and well cared for, Shea communicated very well and she sent adorable pictures of our dog. Everything went smoothly.”

10. Kellie T.
“Kellie has been taking care of my two cats, Louis & Cole, for the past three years, and I couldn’t be happier. Louis is very shy, and Cole is a kitten full of energy, so finding someone who could balance their different needs was a challenge—until we met Kellie. She took the time to let Louis warm up to her, and now he even curls up on her lap when she visits. Cole loves all the playtime Kellie provides, and we always come home to two happy, relaxed cats. She even waters our plants :) Kellie truly goes above and beyond.”
