“Great sitter! Caring and patient with our big, energetic pup.”

About: Hi! My name is Valentina, I’ve been walking dogs for three years now in New York City with another app. I recently moved to California for Veterinary School and it will be my first time working with Rover! I’ve volunteered at dog shelters where I was in charge of walking and feeding them and also administered medications when needed. In New York I had the opportunity to walk over 150 dogs as a part time job while I was also working as a vet assistant in a clinic where we were fear free certified so I take it very seriously to establish a fear free and trusted bond with each animal. I’m really patient with animals and always make sure that they’re having a good time during their walks because it’s not just a walk for them. It’s their opportunity to explore and have some enrichment time! I speak English, Spanish and French so I do my best to establish a clear and transparent communication with every owner about their expectations and requirements of each pet! I currently don’t have any pets here in California so I’m always thrilled to get to spend some time with other pets through these job! I hope I can be a good fit for your furry friend! I’m currently in veterinary school so my availability is mostly during the weekends or afternoons after 5pm. But during the summer I’m open to any other day! I always make sure to communicate as much as possible with the owners. I like to provide a clear picture of how the walk/ sitting is going and to make sure they can feel as close as possible to their pets while they are not with them. I like to let owners know when we are about to leave and then during a pause send them a picture during the walk but I would usually put my phone away until we go back just to be fully present during the walk. I always make sure they have clean water before I leave and to leave them with a treat or toy while I’m leaving just for positive reinforcement!

“This is the second time I have had Yumi and Cody do drop-in visits for my Kitty - they are awesome! They arrive on time, and check everything, and play with him! I know he really enjoys when they come, and I feel better being away, knowing that they will keep him company and take care of him. I highly recommend Yumi and Cody, and they are now my “go-to” pet sitters:)”

“Diana has been wonderful with Mammoth. She’s dependable, keeps me updated with photos, and genuinely spends time with him during her visits. Knowing he’s getting attention and care while I’m working long shifts gives me a lot of peace of mind.”

About: I come from a genuine position of wanting to understand how the animal is feeling and what is motivating their behavior. When my dog started peeing in the house, punishment was not on my mind, I could see from her body language that she felt bad and wasn't doing it on purpose so I had her checked out and learned it was a medical problem not a behavioral one. This is the type of care I will bring to your pets. I also have experience with cats from pet sitting as a kid, and with farm animals from working at an animal sanctuary. I'm currently working part-time with flexible hours so I'll be able to stop by multiple times or even stay with your pet for hours or days. I have a fenced yard and quiet neighbors. I am respectful of other people's homes, I leave things the way I find them and do my best to understand the unique needs, routines and personality of every animal.

About: What sets me apart is my dedication to truly understanding each pet inside and outside of their homes. I offer senior care, follow routines closely, send constant updates, and pride myself on being punctual and reliable. Outside of pet sitting, I am a full time college student. However this will not stop me from caring for your pet as I will set time aside. I hope to offer my love and care while in college in Pomona and at home in San Rafael. If you are hoping to book me at either location feel free to reach out and I will provide my availability. Also feel free to ask any further questions :) As a full-time college student, pet sitting fits naturally into my weekly routine. Spending time with pets helps me de-stress, stay motivated, and balance school with something I truly enjoy. Please Read: My availability is subject to change due to workload, finals, etc. I will be taking classes during the fall, spring, and summer. But do not worry as I will stay on top of keeping you informed. In my personal home, I have limited back porch but surrounded by lots of grass areas in my neighborhood. While away, I dorm on campus.

“Melanie stopped by and did an enthusiastic check in on our Basset hound and anti-social kitty. She did a thorough visit and sent us loads of photos and videos of our fur babies. I highly recommend booking her to care for your pets.”

About: I’ve grown up surrounded by dogs and animals they’ve always been a big part of my life. From the time I was 11 to 17 I helped my aunt with her animal care business, which gave me lots of walking, feeding, bathing, and spending quality time with dogs of all kinds. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to care for their pets too, and I always treat each one like they’re my own. I truly enjoy giving animals love, attention, and a safe, happy environment. This is my second job! As I am a young adult trying to save up for my future so my schedule is very tight around my other jobs schedule as of right now. When caring for pets in my home or my client’s home, I make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved. I stick to their normal routines for feeding, walks, and playtime so they feel secure. I give plenty of attention, exercise, and cuddles, and always keep their space clean and cozy. I also follow any special instructions carefully, whether that’s giving medications, handling specific diets, or keeping up with training. My goal is to make each pet feel like they’re part of my family while their owner is away.

“Andrea was wonderful! Flexible for our meet and greet, attentive and communicative while we were away, and she sent the best pictures! Would definitely recommend her services!”

About: I’ve loved animals my whole life and grew up around dogs in my neighborhood, which taught me how to care for pets with patience and attention. I’m dependable, active, and committed to making every dog feel safe, comfortable, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I’m doing undergrad research at Pomona College and my hours are roughly 9-3. I’m free most weekends, early mornings and evenings to take care of your pets. I can be flexible and adjust to whatever works for you. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine consistent so they feel comfortable and stress-free. I make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, fresh water, meals on schedule, and a safe, clean environment. I also respect each pet’s personality and needs, whether they’re energetic, shy, or older, and I keep owners updated so they feel confident their pet is in good hands.

“Mady is a life saver. She is sweet, communicative and efficient. Highly recommend, especially when it comes to caring for senior pets with medical needs.”

“Lisa stopped by to meet my fur babies and was very pleasant! My dogs felt very comfortable and warmed up to her quickly! I’m very excited for her to care for my babies!”

About: Hi! I’m Arpine, a lifelong dog lover who has been around dogs for as long as I can remember. Growing up, dogs were always a part of my life, and my love for them has only grown stronger over the years. Today, I am the proud owner of both a Labrador and a Husky, so I understand firsthand the different personalities, energy levels, and care needs that each dog can have. I truly believe dogs are one of God’s greatest gifts and deserve to be loved, cherished, and treated like family. They bring unconditional love, loyalty, and joy into our lives, and I feel incredibly grateful for every opportunity to spend time caring for them. Whether your dog is energetic and playful, enjoys long walks and adventures, or prefers a calm environment with plenty of cuddles, I will make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I understand how difficult it can be to leave your pet with someone else, which is why I treat every dog as if they were my own. My goal is to provide not only excellent care for your pet, but also peace of mind for you. I’ll keep you updated with photos, messages, and regular check-ins so you can relax knowing your furry family member is happy and well cared for. I can’t wait to meet you and your pup! care fits naturally into my daily routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I have two dogs of my own—a Labrador and a Husky—so I am already accustomed to daily walks, feeding schedules, playtime, exercise, and providing lots of love and attention. My schedule allows me flexibility throughout the week, and I make it a priority to ensure pets receive the care, companionship, and consistency they deserve. Whether it’s a walk or drop-in visit, I am committed to making sure your pet feels happy, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. I understand that every pet has unique needs, routines, and personalities, and I take the time to follow all instructions carefully to help them feel secure and comfortable. In a client’s home, I respect both the pet’s routine and the owner’s space, ensuring feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any special requests are followed exactly as directed. As a dog owner myself, I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet. I provide regular updates, photos, and communication so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I treat every pet as if they were my own—with patience, kindness, affection, and the attention they deserve.

“Wendy is amazing, reliable, and attentive!”

“We were very happy with the care that Andrea gave our four cats. Two of our senior cats require medication and Andrea was comfortable with giving our babies their meds. Andrea was very conscious and paid close attention to detail. 😊🐈‍⬛”

About: $20 off your first time using Rover if you use https://www.rover.com/sit/leslyr97923 :) I have grown up with dogs of my own and pet sat for family members and friends growing up. I always make sure my pet friends felt welcome and at home in my house. I work a hybrid schedule, Monday-Wednesday in office and Thursday and Friday at home. We’d love to accommodate to drop offs/pick ups, but for those in office days we’d only be able to accept guest dogs after 5:30 pm. Alongside my husband and daughter, we enjoy including your pup into our little family and providing lots of warm love. ~~~Meet & Greets~~~ Although I do not require meet and greets, it is important that your pup is fully comfortable with other people and dogs. I do have a young child that so it is important to know if your dog is okay around children. Since she was a puppy, our dog Marlow has been around many dogs, big and small, and has loved welcoming them into our home as well. She gets so excited having a buddy each time! Although I cannot offer tours of the home, we could always meet in the front yard. If an abnormal time schedule is needed, I'm happy to chat and discuss any adjustments that are needed if I have the capability that week. Your pets are always top priority! During their very first stay, I like to make sure that your peace of mind is met and will send you multiple pictures and updates. We have a fenced yard. We live in a nice and quiet neighborhood where I’ve always felt safe going for walks in. Please let me know if your furbaby needs any special accommodations!
