RACHEL IS AMAZING!! SERIOUSLY!! I asked her to drop in visit to look after my cat Aria, and wow she went above and beyond! Lots of photos, detailed write up of what she and my cat got up to, and was very respectful of the space! Would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a animal loving caretaker.

Ally is a deeply caring, conscious person. My puppy and I are so grateful to have found her on Rover! I have a rambunctious 11-week-old puppy who requires constant supervision. Ally made sure he was safe and cared for! I received pictures on Louie sleeping in her lap and enjoying the garden, which delighted me. No hesitation on giving Ally five stars!!

About: I live with my wife, baby girl, cat, and dog in Palo Alto. At home, I am the CPO (chief poop officer). I've experience with administering flea medicine for cats and dogs. I make sure the pets have food and water. I've trained my current and past dogs (sit, stay, go home, come, leave it, look at me, and other commands). I am responsible and clean up after the animals whether it's poop or vomit. Furry animals make me happy. I'm extroverted, so I am also social and easy to communicate with. I can care for your pet as long as I'm available. I've a flexible work schedule, and am on holiday for two weeks starting the week of Christmas. I have a cat and dog that likes to run out of the door, so I am careful when going in and out of the house. I'd do the same for you. I make sure they've food and water. If the dog goes on a hike where there are tall grass, then I'd check for ticks after the walk and use a tweezer to remove the tick if needed. If the cat or dog has its tail between its legs, then I'd approach slowly and walk around them to not make them too uncomfortable. If the cat's tail is up and approaches, then I give him/her a scratch on the head or chin. If dog's tail is wagging, then I'd definitely pet him/her. If the pet has dietary restrictions, then I will follow the owner's dietary guideline.

Linfield Oaks, Menlo Park, CA, 94025

About: I am a compassionate and reliable dog walker with years of experience caring for and advocating for dogs through rescue work and pet ownership. At present I am volunteering with Doggie Protective Services in Palo Alto. Having shared my life with dogs for more than 30 years, I understand that every pup has their own personality, needs, and routine. I am comfortable administering medications, including pills and eye drops, and have experience caring for dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies to senior dogs who may need a little extra patience and attention. After recently relocating to Menlo Park from San Diego, I am excited to get to know the local community—both the humans and the dogs! While I am unable to offer boarding at this time, I would love the opportunity to provide your pup with an enjoyable walk, a fun play session, or a caring visit filled with attention, affection, and companionship. My goal is always to make your dog feel safe, happy, and loved while giving you peace of mind that they are in good hands. I’m new to the Menlo Park/Palo Alto area and would love the opportunity to meet and care for your dog! As the owner of a part-time in-home charcuterie business, I enjoy a very flexible schedule that allows me to accommodate walks, drop-in visits, and pet care throughout the day. Dogs have always been a big part of my life, and I love getting to know each pup’s unique personality. Whether your dog needs a midday walk, some companionship while you're away, or a little extra exercise and attention, I’m happy to help. And don't worry—I can always fit your dog in between slicing cheese! Your pet’s safety, happiness, and well-being are always my top priorities. I believe every dog is unique, and I’m happy to tailor each visit to whatever makes your pet most comfortable and excited. Whether that means a leisurely neighborhood walk on leash, a trip to the dog park, a game of fetch in your backyard, or simply some extra companionship, I’ll make sure they get the attention and care they deserve. Every visit is filled with plenty of affection, belly rubs, cuddles, and love. My goal is for your pet to feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away—and for you to have complete peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands.

Natalie was absolutely wonderful!! My girls (Romy and Michele, two very felonious felines) immediately warmed up to her and she loved them as if they were her own. Natalie was exceptionally communicative, took many pictures, and it was clear that she genuinely enjoyed being with my girls. I will DEFINITELY be using Natalie again, and I cannot recommend her in the strongest enough terms to any cat parent!

Katelyn was absolutely incredible with my two cats! She did a fantastic job feeding and playing with them, and she sent tons of wonderful photo updates that totally put my mind at ease. On top of that, one of my kitties had a messy bathroom accident, and she went above and beyond to clean everything up.

I was very impressed with G.'s visits. My cat is very skittish but when I returned from my trip, she was calm so I think G. did nothing to cause anxiety. In addition, in one of her daily reports, G. pointed out something about the cat's feeding habits. I was aware of this but felt that it was very responsible of G. to notice it after just a couple of days and bring it to my attention. I will be calling G. the next time I have a trip planned. Thank you G. for being so conscientious.

Ally was so great taking care of our senior cat. He needs medication and some extra care so having Ally give him the right attention was important to us. Ally gave us detailed updates and pictures throughout our vacation which helps us know our cat is well taken care of. Highly recommend Ally for any pet care.
