Alicia took great care of my pups and the house. She was punctual and provided several photos. My dogs were very happy to meet her and she managed my big, high energy, jumpy dog really well. I would recommend her and will be requesting her to sit my dogs again!

Son is amazing. He’s on time and attentive to what we’re asking him to do. Our dog loves spending time with Son and we trusted Son to look after our dog when we’re away from home.

About: I’ve cared for my own dogs and cats for over 30 years and have several years of experience pet sitting for friends and family. Since 2019, I’ve also been a Doggy Day Out volunteer with the Humane Society of Silicon Valley, taking dogs of all sizes on walks, hikes, and park adventures for exercise, socialization, and fun. I treat every pet like my own, with lots of love, patience, and attention. 👉 Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or snuggles, I’ll make sure your furry family member feels happy and cared for while you’re away. My schedule is fairly open, so I have plenty of time to care for and give plenty of attention to your pets most days and times. Your pet’s safety and happiness are always my first priority. In your home, I follow your routines so your furry friend feels comfortable and secure. Dogs always get safe, leashed walks and lots of attention, while cats get clean litter, fresh food/water, and the level of play or cuddles they enjoy. I treat every pet like my own—with love, patience, and care—so you can relax knowing they’re in good hands. 🐾

About: I've been caring for pets since I was young and completed a veterinary assisting program in high school. I also gained experience working at a dog grooming salon and a dog kennel that I currently still work at. I’m available most days of the week, preferably in the evenings when it’s cooler during hot days. On colder days, I have more flexibility throughout the day. I’m simply looking to earn some extra income. I will be able to walk their furry friends when needed and will love spending time with them and even playing with them to burn some energy.

About: I’ve always loved taking care of all sorts of animals since Elementary school. I saw it as very enjoyable and rewarding rather than boring or stressful. When taking care of an animal I’d always make sure they were fed, given water, had a good amount of play time, were taken outside, or anything that was needed to make the pet and owner satisfied! I’m going to begin college during the summer term but since my classes are online I’ll have more than enough time to ensure your pet is well taken care of! I’m available Monday - Friday after 12pm. Although if needed I can go earlier if i’m informed beforehand. I’ve always been respectful whenever I enter anyone’s home, If there’s any special instructions needed before entering the home such as taking of shoes (ect) i’ll be more than happy to do so!

Catherine took such good care of our two bunnies while we were on vacation! This was my first time using Rover, and she helped make the process super easy. She was so patient and kind (even when the bunnies made a big mess!) She also provided thorough updates, lots of photos, and sweet notes that we really appreciated. I’d highly recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter! Thank you so much Catherine!

About: Experienced dog handler and bather while in training to become a groomer! I am experienced with dog behavior, medication administration and overnight shifts. I have a calm approach with all dogs! I love the big softies with all my heart and the little guys never fail to steal my heart. Every dog amazes me with their intelligence! I have also successfully trained a German shepherd with my family and I would be happy to talk about giving your pups a bath while sitting. I currently work as a bather (on my way to grooming academy next month!) and I would love to house sit on the side (overnights and weekends mostly) and as an added bonus I can give your pawesome pets a bubbly bath during house sitting! I will always come with a doggy first aid kit and knowledge of dog/pack behavior, and I have been trained to break up dog fights in the event of any instances out in public or at home.

About: I’m good with the basics like feeding, walks, playtime, and cleaning up after them, but I also make sure they’re getting attention and feeling comfortable while you’re gone. I try to stick to their normal routine as much as possible so they don’t feel stressed. I’ll keep you updated with pictures. I’m reliable, easy to communicate with, and I’ll treat your pet like they’re my own. I plan my schedule around visits to make sure pets are fed, walked, and given attention on time. I’m consistent, flexible, and make sure each pet gets the care they need. I follow each pet’s routine to keep things consistent, feeding, fresh water, walks or playtime, and cleaning up after them. I make sure they feel comfortable, give them attention based on their personality, and keep you updated while you’re away.

About: I’ve been around dogs since I was young and have cared for many different personalities over the years. I regularly help the family I used to live with by watching their dog whenever they travel, which shows the trust people place in me. Dogs tend to feel comfortable with me quickly, and I focus on gentle handling, consistent routines, and making sure every pup feels safe, relaxed, and loved while their owners are away. I work 6-8am and 3-7pm so I will home the most of the other time, and my husband get off after 5, there will be people in the house the most of the time! For cats boarding, our home has cat trees, cozy resting areas, and a Litter-Robot for a clean, low-stress environment. Cats are free to roam the house as long as they get along with our own cats. I always supervise introductions and make sure every cat has safe spaces to relax or hide if needed. Also if your cat feel like staying alone, we have a separate room set up ready as well. I’ve included photos of part of our home so you can see the environment your cat will stay in. For dogs, I provide drop-in visits or boarding, where dogs are most comfortable and able to follow their normal routines.

About: I care for a small group at a time so each dog gets plenty of supervision, play, and rest. I’m very patient with shy, anxious, and senior dogs, and I’m experienced with puppies—including potty routines, basic manners, and crate training support. I pay close attention to each pet’s routine, energy level, and comfort, and I adjust care as needed. Safety and communication are a top priority for me, and I always keep owners updated so they can feel confident and at ease while they’re away. My schedule is built around feeding times, potty breaks, play sessions, walks, and rest periods to make sure each pet gets consistent care and attention throughout the day. I work from home, which allows me to closely supervise pets, keep them on their normal routines, and adjust care based on their energy level or needs. This consistency helps pets feel comfortable, relaxed, and well cared for while their owners are away. I follow each pet’s routine to help them feel comfortable and stress-free. In my home, pets enjoy supervised playtime, regular potty breaks, walks, and safe play in my fenced backyard, along with plenty of rest. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow all instructions closely and provide updates so owners can feel confident their pet is well cared for.

Joleen was absolutely amazing! She took excellent care of my two cats while away on a trip, was able to give my diabetic cat his insulin, and treated them like her own. I was extremely happy with the status updates and never had to worry about anything. If you need a reliable pet sitter who will give your pets the best treatment, look no further!

About: I’ve been a pet parent myself for 10 years, caring for my own dog while looking after multiple cats. I’ve looked after friends and families animals so I am very comfortable stepping into new environments. I’ve gained hands on experience with pets that require medication (including pills, liquids, injections, etc). I’ve cared for animals of all ages and temperaments, from energetic puppies to senior animals who require a little extra patience. I love meeting each pet where they’re at. Whether it’s a gentle cuddle session or an energetic walk, i’ll match your pets energy making sure they feel loved and happy. I’m based in East San Jose and happy to travel a bit farther!! I currently am training for my upcoming hockey season! Monday-Thursday I’m available for morning visits before 1 PM (as early as 7 AM), and for afternoon/evening visits anytime after 3PM. On weekends, I’m fully open and can do multiple visits, walks, or overnight stays. I will be going back to college in Salt Lake, Utah at the beginning of August (August 4th) and plan on switching services to that location! I plan my week around confirmed bookings and make sure your pets care never overlaps with something else. When caring for pets in your home, my goal is to keep their routine as normal as possible so they feel comfortable. I always leave the home clean and like to send updates (whether it’s a text or a photo) after visits so you know how things are going. If anything comes up (a change in behavior, a mess, or something out of the ordinary), I’ll let you know immediately. I treat every pet and home like i’d want mine to be treated.

We are repeat customers with Kaylee. We feel very comfortable leaving our pets & our home in her hands. She is prompt with her communications & in her visits, sends lots of pictures, takes care of everything we ask, and makes sure the cats get lots of pets. We have a cat that takes anti-seizure meds that need to be dosed approx 12 hours apart and she is very mindful of that when making her visits.

I know when I take a trip away from my fur ball, Olivia, I am confident my kitty is in good hands. Olivia demonstrates responsibility, commitment to supporting the kitty/owner need for routine, and my kitty seems to enjoy her company and pets. Upon returning, Rosie seemed pleased, well taken care of, and relaxed. Thank you, Olivia!

Aivy was an amazing cat sitter who stood up to the plate with all my crazy detailed instructions and even took additional time to repair the litter robot when it malfunctioned. I appreciated her super fast communication too. My funny cats warmed up to her immediately. Aivy is now officially on my list of the trusted cat sitters who I will for sure hire in the future when needed.

Reliable, professional, and excellent communicator. Sandy helped take care of my 2 cats while I was on vacation via drop-in visits. She went above and beyond, taking care of my cats, keeping them company, and helped water my plants. Sandy even came back a second day to fill my cats' food bowl when the initial bag of food ran out. Highly recommended!

I definitely recommend Skylee. My senior cat is on multiple meds and have certain dietary needs, and when I first met Skylee, she took down a lot of notes and asked questions to make sure she understands everything well. I really felt reassured when I was away with the detailed updates that she left and she took a lot of photos. Will book again in the future. Thank you!

Mary was an amazing sitter for my cat. Pepper is not easy, she is a little shy and is not friendly with strangers at all. However, Mary managed to win her over, and even got Pepper to ask for belly rubs! I was so happy and surprised that she got her to warm up. She sent me detailed reports and tons of photos everyday, which was great. I would 100% book Mary again and recommend her to other pet owners.
