“Lizbeth did a great job checking in on our cat, and was super communicative. She followed all instructions and left the place clean. Would book her again in the future!”


About: I currently WFH as a Client Finance Manager and recently completed my MBA degree. Somehow, I still have plenty of free time and absolutely love pups! I have my own 4-year-old cavapoo, Eloise, and a 1-year-old mini poodle, Charlie. We go on walks 2 times a day along the beautiful Bay Trail and would love to walk your dog, too! Hire me to dog-sit, dog-walk, or care for your pup—I offer extra attention with snuggles, kisses, and plenty of outdoor time. I am home throughout the day to ensure frequent potty breaks, attention, and regular check-ins. I typically walk dogs twice a day, and with my flexible schedule, I can accept last-minute bookings. I can stay for a few hours at your home, take pups on a long walk, or simply drop by to check in and feed them. I firmly believe all pups should have daily access to freshly cleaned bowls of water.
“Ms. Irina is very responsible, very reliable and friendly cat sitter. She is puncture and takes care of my beloved cat very well. She sent many photos and videos. Thank you for taking care of my baby!”

“Thank you for such thorough accounting for everything our boy did on every walk and visit, we truly appreciated it and it helped all of us be able to have a worry-free time away from our dog!”

“Michelle is great with my large and sometimes nervous dog! She’s also very patient when giving my cat oral meds. My pets are comfortable around her and she takes great photos. I’ll be hiring her again!”

“Amie did a great job taking care of our 2 cats. She is reliable and highly responsive. My cats felt at ease with her. I will definitely book her again whenever we need cat care!”


About: I have 3+ years of hands-on experience caring for my two cats, and I regularly look after a friend’s Shiba Inu for about a month each year. I’m a native Mandarin Chinese speaker and fluent in English. 欢迎全程使用中文沟通,包括见面了解、照护说明和每次服务后的照片与情况更新。 I’m comfortable with feeding, refreshing water, cleaning litter boxes, walks, playtime, and following detailed care routines. Living with a shy cat has taught me to be patient, read pets’ body language, and let them approach at their own pace. I pay close attention to changes in appetite, energy, behavior, and litter box habits. I’ll also provide clear photo updates so you can feel confident that your pet is safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I currently have a flexible schedule and can provide drop-in visits and dog walks on weekdays and weekends, including mornings, afternoons, and evenings. I limit my daily bookings so I can arrive on time, follow each pet’s routine carefully, and give every pet my full attention. I keep my Rover calendar updated and appreciate at least one day’s notice from new clients so we have time to confirm care instructions and arrange a Meet & Greet when needed. I care for pets in the comfort of their own home and follow each owner’s instructions closely. Before the first booking, I prefer a Meet & Greet to review feeding, water, litter boxes, walking routines, home access, emergency contacts, and any health or behavioral needs. During every visit, I make sure doors and gates are secure, keep dogs leashed outdoors, avoid interactions with unfamiliar animals, and respect your home. I also send photos and detailed updates about your pet’s food, water, bathroom habits, energy, and behavior.
“Amazing!!! Love Ivana’s prompt, and honest communication. She is flexible and extremely reliable. My dogs warmed up to her quickly and settled in nicely. She kept us updated and sent pictures! Our dogs are our babies and her care gave us so much peace to leave them in her hands.”

“Cecilia is WONDERFUL!!! Extremely attentive and thoughtful when it came to watching our dog Marco while we were on vacation. Absolutely recommend her!!!”

“Our dog was very well taken care of, Yiteng and his spouse are very thorough and detail-oriented in their care. Their communication with us while we were away definitely exceeded our expectations. We will definitely work with them again, and would recommend them without hesitation. Fantastic job !”

About: My greatest concern when it comes to working with Rover.com is that you, your pet, and myself all have an awesome and positive relationship. If we aren't a good fit, then the money isn't worth it! I am a local artisan with a flexible schedule and experience pet sitting who finds it rewarding to care for animals while earning some extra income. Every pet deserve's loves and attention when their human family is away. That's why I only take care of one dog/cat/family at a time. This ensures that there's no scheduling difficulties and your furry friend is well cared for. I’m always excited to meet new friends so drop me a line if you need some time. Thanks for visiting my profile :) : Im a studio artist and work from home so I have plenty of time to help care for your fuzzy friends, whether its a drop in visit a walk or something else, I’d love to meet you and your pup :) I have a fenced yard a stay near the bay trail so getting outdoors is very easy. I prefer not to take clients dogs to dog parks for safety reasons but walks and attention are certainly part of the experience.
“Itzel did a wonderful job taking care of Laddoo while we were away! She was reliable, communicative, and clearly put in effort to make him comfortable. Laddoo can be shy with new people, but Itzel was patient and consistent with playtime and treats, which really helped him warm up to her. She followed his care routine carefully and sent helpful updates after each visit. There was one evening when she had car trouble and arrived late, but she communicated proactively and made sure Laddoo was taken care of. She was also very receptive to feedback about safety concerns with the windows. We appreciated her genuine care and attention to detail. Would definitely book with Itzel again!”

“Xilin was an amazing cat sitter! She did daily drop-in visits while I was on vacation and took such great care of my cat. Every visit, she made sure he was fed, his litter box was cleaned, and his water was refilled. She also spent time playing with him and giving him attention, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. She was reliable, attentive, and clearly genuinely cares about animals. I came home to a happy, relaxed cat and a clean space. I would absolutely book Xilin again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and thoughtful pet sitter!”

Yiheng did an amazing job with our 2 cats, Nitro and Luna! She followed our instructions precisely, showed thoughtfulness and care, and shared updates and photos after each visit. Both cats are highly skittish, yet they came out for Yiheng! I felt very relaxed with my cats in Yiheng's care, and they were happy and healthy when we got home.

Yujie watched my cats while I was away for a week, and they couldn’t be in better hands!!! She was available to meet them beforehand and while I was away she sent me detailed updates and pictures from them. One of my cats needed daily insulin injections and she handled it really well. I definitely recommend her as a petsitter!!!

Amazing!!! Love Ivana’s prompt, and honest communication. She is flexible and extremely reliable. My dogs warmed up to her quickly and settled in nicely. She kept us updated and sent pictures! Our dogs are our babies and her care gave us so much peace to leave them in her hands.

There’s nothing like piece of mind when you are away from your pet. Zishen and Yukuang are amazing. My cat was pampered and clearly loved by both. They sent many photos and detailed updates every drop in during the two weeks that we were gone. All tasks were completed above and beyond. They also made sure to let us know about a notice that was on our front door. I would recommend them highly to my friends and they are my top choice while I’m away!

Claudia was fantastic with Toto - she played with him while I was traveling every workday, she gave consistent and comprehensive updates, she clearly cared for his wellbeing, and was highly professional. I will definitely enjoy working with her again and recommend her to others

Heleen is our go-to person whenever we need someone we can trust to look after our boy. We have a very shy cat, but he feels completely comfortable with her. On top of that, Heleen is incredibly easy to communicate with, practical, and reliable. She gets things done!

Angie is an amazing sitter! She took care of my pup, Effie, like she was her own. Angie engaged Effie for daily exercise, administered medicine, took care of potty breaks, and made sure she had food and water. I enjoyed the daily reports while I was away on vacation, and my dog is slow to warm up to people and liked Angie a lot. I will hire her again!

Lizbeth took great care of my cat while I was gone for 10 days. She was consistent with her drop ins, sent lots of pictures, and kept me updated on anything important. I really appreciated that she checked in on very short notice when my litter robot threw a concerning error to make sure my cat was safe. I would highly recommend her if you're looking for a cat sitter!
