“Typical Abra broke a another glass jar while we were out. Rachel was so great at making sure he was safe and cleaned up the whole situation. She's the best!”

“Claudia is an amazing cat sitter. Always reliable, and great communication. She goes above and beyond, and even cleaned our feeder units sparkling clean! We always feel comfortable leaving our cats in her care. We highly recommend Claudia!”

“Jas was a great sitter for our two dogs and cat! Communication was great and consistent, and we always got the cutest photos sent over. The pets were very well taken care of and we highly recommend booking Jas.”

“Mario took great care of our dogs- when we were on vacation. We appreciate the communication and photos. We will definitely ask him to help out in the future.”

“Olivia was amazing with my two kitties. She is very communicative and patient with all my questions. She came by for a meet and greet and dropped off my key afterwords in a timely manner. She sent me many photos for each check in, and left a very detailed description for her updates. I highly recommend Olivia she’s very personable and loves animals. Thank you Olivia!”

“Highly recommended! Heleen was absolutely amazing with my cat. She is incredibly responsible, attentive, and clearly loves animals. She was also super responsive to all my messages, which gave me total peace of mind. I will definitely book her again!”


“Aik was the perfect cat sitter! Very friendly, was proactive and took initiative in the care, and was very communicative. He also took very good care of my home and cleaned up all messes. Would definitely work with Aik again, and my cat loved him too! They can tell who good people are. Thanks Aik!”


“Peter has been helping with my 7 month old puppy checking in on her and talking her for walks and I could not be happier with his dedication and support for my Leilah!! Highly recommend him...”

“Our experience with Rong was terrific! She cared for our cats for a couple days while we were away. She was prompt, thorough, and communicative. One day it looked like the cats got into a tiff and there was hair tufts all over the hallway. She let us know, sent photos and cleaned up after them. We appreciated her care for our cats and home, as well as the updates and pics that she provided. Thanks so much Rong! We’ll be in touch again!”

About: I’ve been an in-home house/pet sitter for 3 years now with some consistent and happy pet families. I am happy to stay in home, drop in, do walks, and I’m experienced with cats and any sized dog. I have classes 3 days/week in the mornings, and then work everyday for 3-5 hours in the afternoon. I have space in between those commitments. I put the animal’s needs first! I love to do their favorite things with them. Running, playing fetch, cuddling, going to the park, going on walks, etc.
“Wenxuan is very responsible on Rover, and takes multiple photos and videos every visit! He's been taking care of my cats through out the week and cats are in great mood and condition when I'm home. Would definitely recommend him!”

“This was my second time booking with her to look after my two cats, and she was wonderful yet again! She is incredibly responsible, attentive, and provides great updates. It’s such a relief to know my cats are in good hands while I’m away. She has officially become my go-to sitter!”


“Lizbeth took great care of our two senior cats! She was patient with our picky senior orange, and kept us updated with lots of photos and comments throughout our time away. She was respectful of our house and overall a friendly and genuine person!”


“Prompt and clear in her communication. Great attention to detail when we had to keep cats separated and each cat had different food with medicines mixed in. Super easy going about completing the tasks and leaving some time to play with the kitties and give them some love. Filled out Rover cards at her visits (nice for peace of mind to get that confirmation each time that things are on track and the babies are taken care of), and sent photos of cats, completed tasks, and any important health or house updates (kitty vomit, placed packages inside the house) to let us know what was going on. Felt totally confident that the kitties were in great hands! Thumbs up. Will definitely hire again.”


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 an 11-month-old mini poodle mix, Charlie Sheen. We go on walks 2–3 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 access to daily cleaned and fresh bowls of water. My car can take me anywhere to care for your pup!
“I appreciate Rylie’s patience with a first time rover client. She was responsive and took good care of our two cats. She went above and beyond to even clean up their hairballs. Thank you, Rylie!”
“Angelica was so sweet with our boy! She made sure he got some outside time and lots of great cuddles. She also made sure to follow all instructions and administered medicine for our senior dog. Macho loved his visit from Angelica!”

Yiheng took wonderful care of our little Opal while we were away! She really went above and beyond - keeping Opal happy and comfortable, and leaving everything spotless when we got home. Knowing Opal was in such good hands gave us total peace of mind. She also sent the best photo updates for each visit!!

I felt very comfortable and reassured knowing that my two cats were being taken care of by Yamzel. I really appreciated how she went above and beyond to check in with me about any specific accommodations they needed and to clarify any instructions. She also provides so many check-in photos, which are wonderful to receive while you’re away on vacation and really give you peace of mind! I’ve booked her twice so far and will gladly continue using her in the future. Highly recommend Yamzel!
