About: Hi! I'm a lifelong animal lover who's been caring for my own dog—as well as family and friends' pets—for the past 5+ years. Whether it's going on long walks, bath time, puzzle games, or playtime together at home, I truly enjoy giving every animal the attention and care they deserve. I’ve looked after cats and dogs of all ages, from energetic youngsters to sweet seniors, and I love tailoring each day to their needs and personalities. Rest assured that your furry friend will be treated like family with me! I currently work part-time as a yoga instructor here in Oakland, which means I have a flexible schedule with lots of availability—especially during weekday 9–5 hours and weekends. Whether your furry one wants a peaceful walk, a playful adventure, or just some cozy company at home, I have the time and energy to make it happen. I take safety and trust very seriously, whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in yours. I always follow the specific routines and guidelines each pet parent provides—whether that means administering medication on time, using the proper harness for walks, crating them when I step out, or sticking to house rules. Every pet is unique, and I’m committed to making sure they feel secure and cared for while giving you total peace of mind. Your pet’s safety—and your trust—are my top priorities.
“Melina did such a great job drooping in and feeding my elderly cat, Momo. She was prompt with timing and sent lots of pictures and updates. I could tell that Momo really liked her 🥰 would definitely recommend Melina to anyone!!”
About: I have experience caring for furry dog friends. I'm comfortable with walking, feeding, giving medication, and providing attention and playtime. Whether your dog is energetic or laid-back, I make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away. Hi, my name is G'la! I'm excited to meet new pets and provide them with loving, reliable care. I work a hybrid schedule, which gives me the flexibility to offer consistent attention and companionship throughout the day. Whether it’s a midday walk, playtime, or just keeping a furry friend company, I truly enjoy making pets a natural and joyful part of my daily routine. I adjust my care based on each pet’s routine and personality. In a client’s home, I follow their instructions closely to keep pets comfortable in their familiar space—feeding, walks, playtime, litter box or yard clean-up, medication, and plenty of companionship. I also make sure the home stays clean, safe, and secure. If I’m caring for pets in my own home, I create a calm, pet-friendly environment with plenty of space, enrichment, and supervision. I keep to their feeding and exercise schedule and give them lots of affection and attention to help them feel at ease while they're away from home.
“Kevin and Anna were some of the best pet sitters I have ever had. They sent plenty of photos and really gave my girls the love and care they deserved. I felt extremely confident that if anything had happened they would have handled it with love, care and lots of communication. It really meant I was able to rest assured and enjoy my holiday. I absolutely will be using them again in the future!”
About: Hi! I’m a passionate animal lover with a Bull Terrier of my own, plus experience caring for Beagles, Dobermans, and Chihuahuas. I offer dog sitting, walking, and horse care with plenty of love and attention. Whether your pup needs a fun walk, some quality company while you’re away, or your horse needs grooming and care, I’m here to help. I treat every animal like family and can’t wait to meet your furry and hoofed friends! I only work three days a week so I have plenty of extra time to care for your pets while you’re away or tied up at work.

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover with years of hands on experience, and currently have four amazing dogs. Caring for pups has always been second nature to me, and I treat every dog I meet like family. I have personal experience with anxious dogs who need extra love, patience, and reassurance. I understand how important it is to create a calm, gentle environment and to move at their pace. I’ve also been lucky to care for a senior dog who’s now 16 years old, so I’m very familiar with the special attention older pets need like mobility support. I provide a safe, peaceful, and loving presence so you can feel confident knowing your pet is in good hands. I currently work part-time as a nanny, which gives me the flexibility and availability to spend my extra time to care for and walk dogs! Whether it’s a quick walk, drop-in visit, or house sitting, I’m happy to provide consistent, loving care when you can’t be there. I believe pets feel most relaxed in familiar surroundings, so I’m happy to come to you and keep your pet’s routine as normal and comforting as possible.
“Kay has come over to our home while we have been out of town on multiple occasions. We are SO grateful for her. Not only does she take fantastic care of our dog Louis, she is excellent at following instructions and details. I can’s say enough wonderful things about Kay!!”
About: My name is Anya and I am a dog walker, cat owner of over 10 years, and foster mom. I love both dogs and cats and have experience walking dogs as well as house sitting and cat sitting. I’m currently working virtually part time, so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your pets, house sit, and keep them company! I’m available most weekdays and weekends, and overnights as well. I have two indoor cats that love to explore and eat things they shouldn’t…so am an expert at pet-proofing and making sure your pets stay safe under my watch.
“We would definitely book Qishu again! She was great-quick to respond to messages, sent lots of pictures, and made us feel at ease about being away from Sabina for a couple of days.”
“Adam was fantastic! This was my first time using Rover and I was a little nervous because my cat requires two oral medication injections (liquid meds via syringe) per day, and it is by far her least favorite part of the day. Despite never having given a cat oral injections before, Adam handled it very well during our meet and greet, and I felt confident that he would take great care of my fur baby while I was gone. I even had an unexpected issue getting home in time and Adam was willing and able to help cover for a couple extra days! I won’t hesitate to call on Adam again when I need someone to care for my cat again! 10/10 would recommend.”

“Lisa was AMAZING!!!! She is so clearly a cat lover and went above and beyond to take care of our two cats. She spent extra time with them each day to make sure they got plenty of love and attention. She was super communicative and sent pictures each day without prompt. I felt so comfortable and secure leaving our cats with her and we will absolutely be seeking her services again!”
About: I've had dogs my whole life - from high to low energy we've had every type and I love them all. I'm happy to go on long walks or hikes with you pup and/or take them to the beach if they love the water. I'm currently pursuing a masters at Berkeley so I have lots of free time to check in or walk your pup. Mid day check-ins/walks are especially accessible! I plan to keep your pet safe by abiding by whatever guidelines you set for your dog. I have lots of experience, but will ultimately defer to you because you know your pup the best.

“Hannah has been watching and walking my golden retriever, Ellie, for about 5 years now. Anytime she comes over, Ellie squeals with joy and excitement. Hannah is experienced with reactive dogs and, in my case, stubborn dogs! Even when Ellie would prefer to sit and lounge instead of walk, she is able to get her moving using positive reinforcement. I’d highly recommend and trust her with my dog anytime!”

12. Francesca S.
“I can’t recommend Francesca highly enough! From the moment we met, it was clear she had a natural connection with animals. Our dog, Cali is usually shy around new people, not an issue with Francesca, they bonded right away. Cali wasn’t just well taken care of, she was genuinely happy, which we could see from the daily updates, photos, and videos Francesca sent. Francesca truly goes above and beyond, treating every pet like her own. She’s reliable, attentive, and clearly has a deep love for animals. Knowing Cali was in such capable and loving hands gave us so much peace of mind. We’ll absolutely be booking with her again! She also takes care of and rides horses, so you know she's excellent with all pet sensibilities and can handle dogs no matter where they are on the aggression spectrum.”

18. Hikaru & John M.
“Hikaru is a responsible and lovely person. She previously watched my 50-pound husky (Luna) for several days while I was out-of-town. I met with Hikaru a few times before she watched Luna. I could quickly tell from both her personality and her behavior towards myself and Luna that she is very responsible. I provided Hikaru with all of Luna's stuff (food, water bottle, leash, etc), a summary of her daily habits, and instructions on meals. Hikaru read them and instead of guessing, she asked questions within a few hours to make sure that she is properly taking care of Luna the way I wanted. She texted me pictures of Luna several times, one of which included an 8-mile hike (perfect for an active 1-year-old husky). When I returned home to pick up Luna, Hikaru was jogging with Luna. If I had to choose my top two most valued characteristics of Hikaru, it would definitely be her love for dogs and strong sense of responsibility. I would definitely ask Hikaru to dog sit for me again.”

20. Tristan G.
“Tristan is a dog whisperer!! He’s been caring for my high-energy pup Leia for 2 years. My dog benefits from patient and confident guidance that Tristan’s always provided, and she absolutely adores him. He’s even surprised me by taking her on short runs (which she loves) and always adds extra playtime, leaving her ready for nap time. I’ve had many, many sitters on Rover and I almost wanted to gatekeep his services but he deserves the high praise for the many dogs he cares for! Trust him to be responsible, considerate, and your new favorite walker…”
