“Sammy got along great with our dog! While dog sitting, she provided very detailed and frequent updated about walks, mealtimes, medication, etc. so I always felt comfortable that my pup was in good hands. Thank you!”

“Aijalon is amazing. She took such great care of my cat. She's friendly, kind, communicative, and an absolute delight. I was away two weeks and never worried about the wellbeing of my pet. Would absolutely be thrilled to have her back. Highly recommend Aijalon with your pets and home.”


“Elisa did an AMAZING job. She was flexible with our schedule and kept our fur baby safe walking around downtown. We are so grateful we found such a great sitter. Our dog absolutely loved her. He didn't even seem to mind when we left. If we're ever back in San Francisco we will definitely use Elisa again”

“Highly Recommend Celine! This was our first time using Rover and Celine made the process from start to finish so seamless! Our 5 month old puppy took to Celine immediately so we knew he would be in great hands. Celine is responsive, attentive and kind and we can't wait to work with her again!”

“Femke was the best! She clicked with Fernet immediately and from the photos she sent, he spent most of our trip on her lap :). Femke was incredibly communicative and made sure we had daily updates with photos and videos of thier adventures. Would definitely book again!”

“Lilit responded to my last minute request for someone to house sit with my doggie and boy am I glad she did! She met with me the day after I first messaged her and she jived very well with my doggie right off the bat. Throughout my trip she kept me updated with daily pictures as well as a schedule breakdown of what care she was providing. I copied and pasted one of these breakdowns below. But one of the best parts what that when I got back to my clean and wonderful home I was met with both a happy puppy and a beautiful drawing of my happy puppy courtesy of Lilit. What we've for today so far : July 3 • 9:00 - 9:10 ( playing catch ) • 9:15 - 9:35 ( walk around the area ) • 10:00 - 11:30 ( playing with his toys ) • 1:00 - 1:30 ( walking around the area ) • 2:15 - 2:30 ( playing catch ) • 3:00 - 3:20 ( playing with his toys ) • 4:00 - 4:30 ( walking around the area ) • 5:10 - 5:30 ( playing wity his toys ) • 6:00 - 6:15 ( playing catch ) • 6:40 - 7:00 ( playing with toys ) Soon we'll go for a walk around 30 min”


“Nicole was amazing! She signed on to take care of our 6 month old puppy and our aging, sick kitty - no easy task - and took care of them with tender love and care. She administered meds, cuddled with them, played with our wild puppy, and we came back to a clean and happy home. We can't recommend her enough.”
“Lauren has been a godsend for us - she’s great with our puppy and looked after him so well while we went away for a night. A couple of days before the trip she came for a meet and greet to get to know him and us, so that really helped settle our nerves. Then when we were gone we were sent regular updates and photos and videos - Freddie had such a good time, thank you so so much!! 🩷”

“Elizabeth is great! It was our first time leaving our 16week old puppy alone with a sitter for several hours, and Elizabeth kept us at ease with regular updates and photos. She brings a very calm energy and I would recommend her for anyone looking for someone to care for their precious angel!”

“Icarus did a great job with our dog, Freckles, while we were on holiday. He took diligent care of our baby, followed all the instructions, administered the medication, and provided us with daily updates. Additionally, the apartment was left sparkling clean.”

“See my previous review for more details, but I booked Elizabeth again because she is SO attentive to and amazing with my pup & never leaves her side for a second, even during my SUPER long work shifts. 10/10 definitely recommend. :)”

“Benjamin was a wonderful dog sitter and house sitter! We got regular updates, and both Teddy and our place were in great shape when we got back. 10 out of 10, would recommend Benjamin!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Downtown
Katherine and Egan took excellent care of our senior dog while we were away for the evening. Our pup’s anxiety has increased lately and they did a great job managing it, taking everything, including clean-up of an unexpected accident, in stride. We would happily recommend them.

Allie did a wonderful job of watching our dogs and house-sitting for more than one week. She went above and beyond with communicating, sending pics regularly, walking the dogs more often than we would normally, helping with other household chores that were not on our list. Our dogs seemed to really enjoy her company and I didn’t worry about them while we were gone. We have already booked Allie for another trip in the future.

Selena was so great with our mini aussie puppy! We really appreciated her clear love for dogs and how happy our pup was playing with her; she was very attentive to our instructions and tips. Also, we really enjoyed getting pics of their playtime and appreciated the detailed recap of their day. Highly recommend!

Sammy was wonderful with our cats! She was reliable, communicative, and took great care of them while we were away. We really appreciated the regular updates and photos which gave us so much peace of mind. The cats seemed happy and comfortable with her, and everything was in great shape when we got home. We’d happily book Sammy again and would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and dependable sitter!

João was a fantastic dog sitter for my pup Nora. He is incredibly kind, professional, very easy to communicate with and responsive. He was nothing other than attentive, thoughtful and loving with my dog and treated my place like he would his own while he watched her over an extended holiday weekend. I could not recommend him more highly.
