“Latricia is a really kind person who has taken wonderful care of our dog during boarding and day care. He clearly loves seeing Latricia and hanging out with his dog buddies at her pad. And she sends us really adorable photos every time! We'll definitely continue using her services. Thanks Latricia!”

“Alejandra is a fantastic sitter! We picked up our little girl happy and jolly after a day with her. I cannot thank her and her husband enough ❤️ she sent constant photos ,videos and updates throughout the day. Also, their puppy Nemo is adorable and so very friendly. If you want to have piece of mind about your dog knowing they'll be safe while having a great time, Alejandra is your sitter!”

“VJ and Matthew took amazing care of my dog Willa! They were so communicative and sent lots of pictures and videos. Willa seemed to have a great time with their dogs and feel comfortable despite her anxiety. Will definitely be booking again!”

About: I’m a full time artist and WFH sitter with over 15 years of experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages including Puppies, seniors, special needs pets, and sensitive personalities. I live a calm and quiet lifestyle with my senior corgi, Mochi, and my sweet, dog friendly cat, Mumu. Because I’m home most of the day, your pet will get steady attention, a peaceful environment, and care that never feels rushed. My dog Mochi is 10 and has had many health issues, including back leg mobility problems. Caring for her has given me strong experience with senior dogs, medication schedules, mobility support, slow routines, anxious pets and even stroller walks. I grew up with many pets, so caring for animals has always been a natural part of my life. I’ve experienced a negligent sitter in the past whose carelessness sent my dog to the hospital. Because of that I take this work extremely seriously. I’m attentive, detail oriented, cautious and I never take shortcuts especially with older or delicate pets. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. Because I’m an artist I’ll sometimes doodle a small portrait of your pet if time allows, just a little gift for you. A little about why I joined Rover: I recently moved into a larger space which has allowed me to comfortably host more pets. I also decided to start pet sitting as a way to help offset the rising costs of my senior dog’s insurance. It’s important to me that I can continue providing the best care for her and Rover lets me do that while offering attentive, reliable care to other pets as well. I WFH so I’m home most of the day. Pet care fits naturally into my routine I already have a senior dog with daily feeding, meds so I’m used to gentle and structured care throughout the day. I take breaks to give pets attention, walks, playtime and lots of calm company. Your pet would be part of my daily rhythm not an afterthought I maintain a calm and supervised home where safety comes first. Pets get slow introductions and secure spaces and constant oversight since I work from home. My corgi is crate-trained and my cat has high-ground access so everyone has their own safe zones. I follow your schedule exactly : feeding, walks, meds, and activities so your pet stays on their normal routine. They’ll have a safe comfortable place to play or nap all day and can sleep with me at night if they'd like to. Diet & Feeding I follow your pet’s exact feeding schedule and portion sizes to keep everything consistent. I always make sure pets stay hydrated, especially in warmer weather. I feed my dog and guest dogs separately to avoid any food guarding or stress during mealtimes. Hygiene & Cleanliness I keep pets clean and comfortable throughout the day : wiping paws if needed, cleaning eye discharge and keeping their space tidy. I’m very detailoriented about maintaining a clean safe environment. Walk Safety All dogs are leashed outdoors at all times. I stay alert around other dogs separate pets immediately if there are signs of stress or tension and prevent ground eating or unsafe sniffing areas. I’m always attentive and I clean up after them every time. Sleeping Arrangements My own dog prefers her own bed and doesn’t sleep with me but your dog is welcome to sleep wherever they feel comfortable whether that’s in their own bed, the crate or in the bed with me for extra comfort. I make sure every pet has a safe cozy sleeping setup.

About: Berkeley Humane Society and Oakland Animal Services volunteer, trained with dogs of all temperaments. I also dog sit for family and friends, and love building trust and keeping routines consistent. I focus on quality walks, not quick outings. When appropriate, I take dogs to East Bay spots like Point Isabel, Albany Bulb and Berkeley Marina for space and stimulation. For drop-ins, your dog will get lots of attention, movement and care. I walk my dogs daily, often on longer outings. I adjust pace and distance based on your dog’s needs. Dog care is my priority right now. I’m available mornings, afternoons, and evenings. I have flexibility and I can accommodate longer walks or extended visits I prioritize safety at all times. Dogs will always be on-leash and handled either full attention and control. I stick to your instructions and keep routines consistent
“Thank you for watching our sweet Porky pie. He had such a great time. We love that he gets to have play time with other dogs and so glad he got along so well with Nala. Loved all the great updates while away, it really made my heart happy to see he is well taken care of while we are away. Highly recommend to anyone needing a pet sitter. Amazing communication!!! And your pet will be well taken care of.”


About: Hello! My name is Hyesuk, and I am a reliable and caring dog sitter who truly enjoys spending time with animals. I understand that every dog has a unique personality, routine, and needs.

Your dog is welcome to sleep on our bed with me as well, if that is something you allow at home.
“Emily and her daughter were the best! We needed a last minute sitter for our puppy and they took such great care and updated us with photos We are so grateful we met them on Rover and definitely would recommend to any future pups! Don’t hesitate to book Emily if you have a chance to!!!”

“Sarah was wonderful with Bijou! He is a well-behaved dog but has a ton of energy, and it was clear that Sarah understood his personality perfectly. You could easily tell from the pictures she shared that he was having a blast. She took him on a couple of walks, and he came home completely happy and tired out from all the fun. I highly recommend Sarah for doggy day care and will definitely use her services again!”

“Dylan and his family were amazing! Pancho enjoyed spending time with other pups. Something that as an only child he doesn’t get to do very often. Pancho was a bit constipated at the time of drop off and Dylan kept me in the loop and tracked any updates. I also received many photos and even a video of Panchitos adventures.”

“Mary is super attentive and caring. She gave detailed updates about how she was doing and sent lots of photos in which Shanti looks happy and relaxed, enjoying the company of her fur baby, Murphy. When I arrived at her place to pick her up. she was already standing in front of her apartment building so that I didn't have to wait for her to come out. So Sweet! I'd definitely ask her to look after my dog again in a heartbeat!”

“Im new to having someone else take care of my dog. Courtney checks out for me - I noted her reviews, information and pictures in her profile, and then she was easy to communicate with. I had a good feeling when it came time to drop off, where Courtney was very welcoming and transparent. My doggo made new friends and came home and crashed out! I do plan to ask Courtney if she could do day care or boarding again soon!”


“Jamie was terrific! My anxious pup fell asleep in her care the first visit which is always such a relief to see! Pick up and drop off were easy. Excellent and clear communication. Thank you! Will book again :)”

“Taylor is fantastic. I was in town for work with my wee guy and she took care of him during the times I couldn't have him with me. Rowlf and Taylor made a fast friends. They played and walked and cuddled, she took tons of pics and kept me up to date about their time together, and really supported me while I was working. I'm so grateful I found her. Taylor is super friendly, thorough, and loving. It can be so hard for all of us to trust the care of our babies to a stranger. You can't go wrong here!”

Amber helped me by watching my two little doggies for back to back 12 hour days! My sitter at my departure city fell through and I had to bring my doggies to the SF area, but had nonstop events where I couldn’t have the dogs. She was a life saver! She was super communicative and nice. A great experience.

I am so happy to have found Gretchen! She is a lovely person who obviously loves dogs and cats (I have both) and has clear extensive experience in caring for them. My dog Sidney typically spends a day each week in her care when I work far from home. I have peace of mind when my baby is with Gretchen; she takes her on multiple lovely walks each day to beautiful places like the Emeryville Marina and has a comfy inviting space where Sidney obviously feels very at home. I highly recommend Gretchen to care for your fur babies!

Mariola did a great job caring for my almost one year old puppy. I booked three days in a row while my husband was out of town and Pepper was eager to go each day. Mariola had helpful tips about managing youthful enthusiasm without shaming her for still working on self control.
