About: I have been taking care of pets basically all my life, at my grandma house we use to have a lot of animals, and she taught me the love that they need and now I want to keep sharing that love. I’m a staying at home mom for now so I have most of the time free to play with animals, give them love and take care of them. At my house we have plenty of space where they can stay and play and where I’m able to take care of them all the time
“He did a great job of taking care of my social kitty when I was gone. He noticed when she just needed some tlc and gave her some. He also brought in my packages and communication was great.”

“Jinhao was wonderful! He kept updating me throughout the whole visit, which really gave me peace of mind. I loved receiving the updates and photos, and it was clear that he took great care of my dog. He’s reliable, attentive, and very thoughtful. I would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a great dog walker!”

“We had an amazing experience with Siqin as our cat sitter. She was incredibly attentive and caring, sending us regular photos and videos that gave us so much peace of mind. She made sure everything was running smoothly—cat food, water, and the litter box were always well taken care of. It was clear how much she genuinely cared for Buttercup, and we felt completely at ease knowing our cat was in such good hands. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate pet sitter.”

About: Your doggo will be treated like a member of the family and I will be sensitive to whatever your pup needs. I know that dogs each have their own personalities and will accommodate care to fit what makes them comfortable. We watch only one dog at a time so your dog will have our undivided attention. I am a part-time teacher that is home by 11:00am. My husband is home in the morning. The rest of the day is spent in my art studio. In the evening I usually go for a long walk. Most weekends are spent at home relaxing with family. We have a cozy condo that is dog friendly and a sunny deck for warm naps. We live close to Alameda Creek Trail which is where we take frequent walks. I will try and follow the routine that your dog is used to as close as possible. If you're doggie is staying with us overnight, I will send lots of updates and daily pictures. We don't have any other pets or small children so, the home is quiet and calm. I only sit one dog at a time so your dog will receive our undivided attention while visiting.
“Chloe came by to our apt 2x day to take care our cat while we were away for 3 days. She stopped by a couple weeks prior to meet us, him and go over the directions for his care. She was quick to reply to messages during the time of booking and throughout. She did a great job keeping out place tidy and our cat looked well taken care of when we returned and on the update photos. Would reach out to Chloe again in the future.”

About: I’ve always been an animal lover! I grew up with dogs and have experience caring for both cats and dogs of all sizes. I currently work from home, so any pet I babysit will have my full attention, lots of love, and plenty of playtime. Whether it’s cuddles, walks, or just keeping them company, I’ll make sure your furry friend feels safe and happy while you’re away! I’m home all day — giving your cat plenty of love, attention, and companionship. I go out sometimes during the afternoon, it’s usually for a bit of exercise, dancing, or volunteering, Being home most of the time allows me to create a safe, engaging, and loving environment for your feline friend, making sure they feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for while you're away. I live in a single family house with fenced yard with my husband—just the two of us—right in front of a park. Our home is a calm and safe space for cats, with plenty of cozy spots to relax. I can create a personal area for your cat if they need their own space, or they are welcome to lounge in the living room or stay with me in my room while I work. I always respect each cat’s comfort level and routine.
“Suzie was a tremendous help with my senior CKD cat, Molly, during two home subcutaneous fluid sessions. On the first day, I took the lead and Suzie assisted with line priming, valve operation, and helping keep Molly comfortable and still during the procedure. On the second day, Suzie took the lead and successfully performed the needle insertion and fluid administration while I assisted with positioning Molly, valve operation, and fluid flow. Molly's care requires patience, teamwork, attention to detail, and a calm approach. Suzie was reliable, professional, gentle with Molly, and adaptable when our roles changed from one day to the next. On the day Suzie took the lead, Molly received her full fluid treatment with no observed leakage, and Molly remained comfortable, mobile, and relaxed afterward. I would gladly work with Suzie again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for dependable help with a pet who has ongoing medical needs.”

“Ziying was a wonderful cat sitter for our drop-in visits. She is very kind, caring, and easy to communicate with. She kept me updated before visit and shared lots of photos and videos, which I really appreciated. My cats were well taken care of, and I felt completely at ease. I would definitely book Ziying again in the future and highly recommend her.”

About: I've trained puppies in my younger years and understand the importance of consistency and play for your fur babies at all ages. My own pets are my family and I will care for yours like I care for my own. I'm part of the illustrious layoffs in the corporate world and looking to stay active while I search for my next career. I started on this app as a customer and now looking to bring my skills to other families. I like to treat pets as individuals and build trust with them at their own pace. I treat your home as I do my own and like to learn each pets unique personality and adapt my way of interacting accordingly.
“Jiaji was a wonderful sitter and communicated with me very well throughout the entire process! I felt reassured that my cats were in good hands with her care and attentiveness in making sure their needs were met. Will definitely book again when I travel in the future :)”

“Paige was extremely communicative, reliable and amazing! She sent update pictures for every visit and assured me that my pet bunny Luna was happy, healthy and well cared for. I was worried since most people don't have much experience with bunnies, but Paige asked thorough questions to make sure she cared for Luna in the best way possible. Would extremely recommend her!”

“Jessica is a fantastic sitter! She took great care of our cat during the holiday break, even on bad weather days. I loved the photo updates and felt completely at ease knowing our cat was in such capable hands. Our cat clearly bonded with her and will miss her. She also took care of the mails, moved the trash bins and made sure that the doors were locked. Thanks Jessica!”

About: I love meeting and caring for dogs, and i live in a simple and comfortable home for new dogs to come and explore. I have a playful 10 y/o Maltese that makes for a great play date. I work from home and have my own dog, so my home is well set up for fur friends to come and hang out at! I live in a 3BR with my dog. Because I have a dog, the house is doggy proof with no snacks or choking hazards lying around.

I have to say, Katelyn is truly the best Rover sitter I could have ever asked for. She was the first person I found on the app, and honestly, she will probably be the last because I can’t imagine finding anyone better. She is incredibly thoughtful, gentle, and caring. Before even coming to your home, she takes the time to ask about every detail, including any special instructions and your pet’s care routine. When she visits, she spends a lot of time making sure every aspect of your pet’s care is taken care of. What impressed me most is that even with things you may not think to mention, she notices them herself and takes care of every little detail perfectly. You can genuinely feel how much care and love she puts into what she does just from the way she communicates and writes her visit updates. She makes you feel completely at ease while you’re away, because you know your pet is being cared for with the same attention and affection as if they were part of her own family.(she even cleaned up my messy room for my cupid 😻) Katelyn is incredibly responsible, warm, attentive, and professional. I feel extremely lucky to have found her, and I genuinely couldn’t recommend her more.

Xueying took excellent care of our cat, Leia, and we had a wonderful experience with her. She was dependable, attentive, and kept us well informed throughout each visit. She made an extra effort to keep Leia comfortable and engaged, even bringing along toys for them to play with. Leia warmed up to her very quickly, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. We would be happy to have Xueying care for Leia regularly and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a kind and trustworthy pet sitter.

This was our first time using Rover to find someone to check in on, feed, and care for our cat, Potato, while we were traveling outside the country for two weeks. We were a little nervous leaving him for that long, but Chenqi (and her husband, Zhaohan) made the entire experience easy and worry-free. Every day, they arrived reliably, fed Potato, cleaned his litter box, refreshed his water, and even spent time playing with him so he wouldn't feel so lonely while we were away. It was clear they genuinely cared about his well-being and weren't just stopping by to complete a checklist. Chenqi and Zhaohan were also excellent communicators. They kept us updated with messages and photos (which were great because we missed seeing Potato more with each passing day), paid close attention to Potato's behavior, and even alerted us when they noticed a small change in his appearance. They also kept us informed about his litter box habits, which gave us tremendous peace of mind. Their attentiveness made it clear they were truly looking out for him, not just completing the basics. Since this was the first time we'd ever been away from Potato for this long, we were especially anxious during the first few days of our trip. Chenqi and Zhaohan quickly put those worries to rest. Knowing they have cats of their own made it even more reassuring—they clearly understand cats and treated Potato with the same love and care they would give their own. We wouldn't hesitate to book Chenqi and Zhaohan again. Having such trustworthy, compassionate, and dependable sitters means we can travel in the future knowing Potato is in excellent hands. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for exceptional pet sitters.

Starla is my hero. Thank you for coming to my rescue when the original plan didn't worked out. She's a lifesaver. She communicated with me & sent pictures on a daily basis. Can see she's a dog person, definitely will recommend her & I'll use her service in the future.

This was our second time hiring Paige, and she was just as wonderful as the first! She was incredibly accommodating, flexible, and easy to work with, even when we had a few changes. She took great care of our outdoor cats, kept us updated, and gave us peace of mind while we were away. We truly appreciate her kindness, reliability, and communication. We wouldn’t hesitate to hire Paige again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and dependable pet sitter!
Jill was wonderful. She was so patient with my shy cats and made sure they ate! She also cleaned up after them when they were messy. I really appreciated all the great photos. This was the first time my cats and I had a non family member take care of the cats, and Jill took care of my anxiety as well as my cats’ needs.
