About: I’ve grown up with both large and small breed dogs my entire life, so caring for animals feels very natural to me. I also have hands-on experience working in a shelter environment, where I cared for dogs of all personalities — from sweet, energetic puppies to reactive dogs and those with behavioral challenges. I’m calm, patient, and attentive, and I always focus on meeting each animal where they are and respecting their individual needs. Safety, comfort, and trust are my top priorities, especially for dogs who may need a little extra understanding. I’m also a proud cat parent and absolutely love cats! I’m comfortable caring for feline friends of all personalities and making sure they feel safe, relaxed, and well-loved while you’re away. Whether it’s dogs or cats, you can trust that your pet will be treated with kindness, patience, and genuine care. I work until 2:30 pm Monday through Friday, but I’m available for afternoon and evening walks or check-ins on weekdays. My weekends are very flexible and open for longer walks, more frequent check-ins, and extended care as needed. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize safety, routine, and making sure each animal feels comfortable and secure in their own environment. I respect household rules and follow any care instructions closely to ensure consistency and minimize stress for your pet. I’m comfortable with crating when needed, providing enrichment activities, and engaging in play to make sure pets are both physically exercised and mentally fulfilled. I also have no problem cleaning up after dogs or cats and keeping their space tidy. I always take cues from the animal — whether they need structure, space, playtime, or affection. If your pet enjoys cuddles and companionship, I’m happy to provide plenty of love; if they prefer independence, I respect that too. Whatever your pet needs, I’m committed to providing thoughtful, attentive care.
“Yichen has been absolutely amazing throughout the whole process! She took care of my kitty, sent me detailed updates keeping me reassured while I was away. She is extremely thoughtful and kind, and very communicative!! Highly recommended and I will definitely being booking with her again! 😊”

About: Hi!! I have taken care of dogs and cats of all ages. I am new to rover but have been working with animals for several years- this includes walks, dog training and belly rubs! Giving medications, doing their physical therapy exercises for seniors I can help with it all. Scroll through my gallery to meet my references!! I work a flexible schedule (I’m a Medical Device Engineer), so just shoot me a message and we can work something out. I am super outdoorsy so I go on a lot of walks and hikes..I know all the local trails. I also have a bunch of fun puzzles and other brain games for puppies that can’t leave home. Shoot me a message we can work out the best care plan for your pets. I carry my treat pouch on all visit, will have treats and poop bags. I also rock climb so my upper body strength is right up there to keep your excited puppies safe and while letting them explore. I love sniffaris . I’m also an expert hiding medications just right to get your babies to take them willingly! I can read body language and will always maintain communication with you!
“Carissa is super sweet and took such great care of my pups! She was incredibly communicative and sent wonderful updates so I was never worried while I was away. Thank you Carissa!”

“Tessa is an amazing addition to our weekly routine. She is very communicative and reliable. My dog is very shy and slow to warm, but he has been easily won over by Tessa’s care and consistency. I do not have to worry if my dog is safe or able to go outside, due to Tessa’s drop-in services.”

“Carolina did an amazing job with my pup. She’s played with him as well as fed him. She also made sure that I was updated and communicated very well with me. I definitely recommend her and will definitely hire her again for Koda.”
About: I adopted my dog at 19 in college and gained hands-on experience caring for many dogs at UC Berkeley while managing a high-energy pup daily. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. As a current graduate student at CSULB, I keep a structured schedule that allows plenty of time for walks, feeding, and play with my own dog. I adopted my pup at 19 while in college, so balancing school and caring for a high-energy dog has always been part of my life. I also gained years of experience caring for classmates’ and neighbors’ dogs at UC Berkeley, so fitting pet care around classes, studying, and work feels comfortable and familiar. I’m organized, flexible, and make sure every pet gets consistent attention, exercise, and love. I follow each pet’s routine closely, keeping them comfortable and safe. Whether in my home or yours, I provide structured walks, feeding, playtime, and calm, consistent care.
“Maya, is the best pet sitter I have ever had. She goes above and beyond. Attending to my dogs every need. She has constant communication. Sending photos also. My dog fell in love with her. I can say enough to give a huge thank you! ??”

“Jingying and Alex were great! They really cared to do an in-person meet up beforehand to understand all my pets needs. They asked great questions to double-check all the care details. Highly recommend!!”

About: Dogs have always been a part to my life since I was little. My current boy is a sweet and gentle rescue from Korea. I live in a spacious townhome with a backyard so your dog will have plenty of attention and space to run around. Finding the right person is the most important part, so from walking to pet sitting, I am a patient, compassionate, and knowledgable choice. If you have specific instructions for your dog, I always make it my priority to review carefully and follow precisely. Expect lots of photo and video updates when you book with me😊 Since I work remotely, I’m home most of the day and love being able to give dogs plenty of attention and companionship. I only take one Rover client at a time (alongside my dog Prince), so your pup will get lots of care and undivided attention. Prince is very friendly and social, so your dog will have a sweet, playful buddy to keep them company too. I live in a spacious townhome with a fenced patio for safe outdoor breaks. I’m very intentional about creating a calm, secure space where dogs can feel comfortable and relaxed. I follow your care instructions closely and treat every dog like my own, making sure they feel safe, understood, and well cared for. If your dog has medications, supplements, or any special requirements, I’m extremely detail oriented and happy to accommodate. I set timers and stick closely to feeding schedules, potty routines, and any specific instructions to ensure consistency and peace of mind while you’re away.
“Tala was professional and kind and took good care of our cat while we are on a trip! She provided lots of love and care to him, evident through pictures and videos. She also offered to do a meet-and-greet to see our cat, our place, and to meet her as a person. Our cat did not have any medications to administer or any food/water that needed to be given as we have an auto feeder and fountain, but our main ask was for Tala to clean his litter and give him lots of love and play with him if he was in a playful mood, all of which I believe Tala did while we were gone. Thanks Tala!”

About: Have had animals my whole life and grew up on a ranch and currently I am a dog mom to a super big friendly 110 pound Anatolian Shepherd. I am great with reactive dogs and larger breeds as well as small breeds. As a new mom, I am currently trying to walk as much as possible, and would love to take all of your furbabies on walks.

About: I grew up with dogs my entire life and have been taking care of my beautiful girl for 2 years. Prior to that I would dog sit for friends and family. Not to brag, but I am all of my friends' dog's favorite person and they are always most excited to see me visit. I know when a dog wants to play and when they may need some space and gentle company. While my girl is not super comfortable having dogs in our home, she loves to visit her friends and go on pack walks if your pup wants extra company. I currently work from home and am free to set my own schedule or take my work anywhere I would like during the day and I am free every day of the week In a client's home I am always respectful of your boundaries and your dog's boundaries. If a dog is a little possessive of their toys, I know how to respectfully and calmly establish play with them. I also am firm, but kind. I know how to establish that I will be listened to without ever using fear tactics or shouting, but remaining calm, speaking firmly, and rewarding when appropriate.

About: I have owned and trained my dogs my whole life, so I've been through it all and have seen it all, crazy pups to the senior years and all in between. I do not bring my dog with me on walks/visits /stays because he's all about playing all the time and many dogs are not interested. I work from home so I am able to adjust my schedule for walks/visits/stays. My girlfriend is with my dog when I do stayovers. Because I am a dog owner, Im used to dogs always being part of my daily routine. For overnight stays we will just go over whatever you and your dog's needs are regarding feeding, meds, walks, amount of time in home etc.
“Andrew is an absolutely amazing sitter. Words cannot describe how grateful I am for him and how kind, flexible, and caring he was. My two kitties loved him too! 10/10 recommend to everyone.”

Cornerstone Village pet parents share their Rover experiences
Amelia was amazing with our kitten and very communicative. Loved that she actively played with our cat every visit, especially considering the little one is now a senior kitten. The pictures were adorable (greeting boop!) and provided fun updates on how active and/or sassy our cat was each visit. Very much appreciated her watching our small one. Would absolutely recommend her and book her again!

This was our first time leaving our cats for an extended trip, and Mable made us feel completely at ease from day one. Her detailed visit reports and photo updates were incredible - we could tell how much time and care she put into every visit. She played with their favorite toys, brushed them, and made sure they were happy and comfortable. Finding someone you trust with your pets is everything, and Mable is absolutely that person for us. We are beyond grateful!

Patricia has been an absolute blessing for our family and our pup, Ollie! She is always punctual, reliable, and genuinely caring. From day one, it was clear how much she truly loves animals and takes her job seriously. Ollie is always happy and well taken care of after his walks, which gives us so much peace of mind. We really appreciate her professionalism, kindness, and consistency. I highly recommend Patricia to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate dog nanny!

Anna did an amazing job caring for our Fluffy Bear. Fluffy is very shy and usually stays hidden but Anna was patient and made the effort to spend time with her anyway. On one visit, Fluffy even came out far enough to lick Anna’s hand which says everything. My wife and I were so happy with the care Anna provided and felt completely at ease while we were away. We would absolutely book her again and highly recommend her.

Elise was amazing. I would highly recommend her! She did a great job taking care of everything while I was out of town for 4 days. She sent lots a really great pictures and a very detailed and fun update each day. Her pricing is reasonable and her services a 10/10.

We are so grateful for the care she gave our two dogs—a very nervous poodle and our gentle giant. We did a meet-and-greet beforehand, which already made us feel comfortable, but what truly stood out was her patience and kindness during the visits. Our dogs were clearly anxious being without mom and dad, yet she took her time, moved at their pace, and genuinely went above and beyond to help them feel safe and cared for. Her communication was excellent and brought us so much peace of mind while we were away. It meant everything knowing our pups were in such thoughtful, loving hands. We would absolutely love to work with her again in the future and highly recommend her to anyone with sensitive dogs.

Alexsys did a fantastic job taking care of our pets! She gave them the perfect amount of attention, ensured they were well tended to and provided us with detailed updates throughout our time away, alleviating any anxiety we may have had about leaving our pets while on vacation.

Elizabeth did an excellent job watching my cats while I was on vacation. She took my booking on short notice and was able to completely accommodate my requests. She sent me lots of update photos and videos that kept me connected to my cats while I was away. I will hire her again for my next trip!

I was very nervous to leave my dogs. They have some unique needs. Ana was fantastic. Her updates were thorough with lots of pictures. She followed instructions to the letter and it was obvious my boys were being very well taken care of. We will definitely use Ana again - she’s the best!
