“Fox was so great with my fussy old dog! He often gets stressed when I leave him and often will not eat or have GI trouble, but Fox kept him so comfortable that he didn’t have a problem! She sent lots of great pictures of him and I never had a worry. So grateful for Fox!!”

“Cara recently took care of Ralphie when I had an unexpected dogsitter cancellation. It was awesome that she was able to come by for a last minute meet-and-greet - Ralphie really loved her and I liked that she is punctual, accommodating, and gave regular updates. I came home to a happy dog and a clean place!”

About: I volunteered at the Tuolumne County SPCA with my grandparents from the time I was a child until my Grandpa passed away a couple of years ago. I cared for kittens who had lost their mothers, elder dogs and cats who had lost their pet parents, and everything in between. I have participated in volunteer adoption events, and helped many pets find their furever homes. Beyond that, I am a life long dog and cat mom and animal lover. I will have puppies and kittens to seniors well cared for and comfortable. I am studying online to get an advanced degree in Psychology, so I have ample availability to show up and care for your fur-baby. I like to help create calm by sticking to their routine. They should be fed on their regular schedule, dogs should be walked and given potty breaks on the schedule they are used to, play and cuddles should be abundant and documentation and communication should be consistent. Litterboxes and food dishes should be kept clean and well maintained. All of this should work together to ensure that pets and pet-parents are all calm and happy while parents are away.
“Ida and Travis were amazing to work with! They sent tons of cute photos of my cats, were the best communicators, and even left my home cleaner than they found it. They were very attentive to learning about my cats' needs and managing challenges like my sticky front door key. I'd definitely use them again!”

“Jena watched our dog Addy at our home for 5 days over 4th of July. Both Addy and the home were well taken care of. I recommend Jena, and will use her services again in the future.”

“Rong was super responsive, timely, and communicative! She took great care of my pup and made sure to follow through on every request I made of her! My place was spotless when I got back and I will definitely ask her to look after Marco again!”

“Honestly there’s nothing I can say to convey how wonderful and at ease our dog was with him. He was attentive to our fur baby and treated him like we would. It was nice to enjoy our night out and not have to worry about our dog because we knew that Thomas was everything and more than we can ask for in a dog sitter. Our fur baby was truly in good hands.”


“Michelle was absolutely fabulous! She was able to watch my two dogs on very short notice while I was in Oakland to visit family. My dogs loved her! She took great care of them, taking them on multiple walks throughout the day and providing attention when needed. She we be the first person I reach out to when I am in the Oakland area again. Thank you Michelle!”

“Rich is absolutely outstanding. This was the second time he stayed with Remi while we were away for nine days, and I didn’t worry once. Remi is a young, sensitive dog with anxiety and a very specific routine, and Rich handled everything with incredible patience, skill, and genuine care. He did Remi’s mat training, gave all of his medications, took him on walks, managed his anxious moments with calm confidence, and followed all of the routines we’ve worked so hard to establish. It was clear that he cared about helping Remi feel safe and successful, not just getting through the day. Rich also sent thoughtful updates and photos throughout our trip, gave us a detailed report when we returned, and left our house spotless. Finding someone you trust with a dog like Remi is priceless, and Rich has earned that trust completely. I would recommend him without hesitation to anyone, especially if you have a dog with anxiety or behavioral needs. We feel incredibly lucky to have found him.”


“Wow! What an incredible sitter Hong was. This is the first time I have ever been away from my fur babies and not worried once. She was so communicative the entire time and I came back to happy dogs and a pristine house. If I could give her 10 stars I would! Thank you again Hong. ❤️”

“Anais went above and beyond to provide loving care to our dogs - who can take a while to warm to new people. Anais was so patient and diligent with them - and communicative with us - we knew our pups were in the most capable and caring hands. We are so grateful. 🙏🏼”

“Irina is incredible!!! We are so grateful to have found her for caring for our 3 fur babies. She takes excellent care of our animals, sends beautiful and adorable pet photos to us while we’re away, and is very conscientious of our home as well! 5 stars ⭐️”


“Barbara has taken excellent care of both of anxious/reactive big dog, and our home while we have been out of town. She is reliable and so helpful, I never have concerns leaving Rocky in her care. I recommend her to anyone looking for care for their pups!”

About: Animals have always been a very important part of my life. Growing up, my mother operated a small pet rescue and animal shelter organization in Asia, and from a very young age I helped care for rescued dogs, cats, and abandoned animals alongside her. Over the years, we helped rescue and rehome thousands of animals, many of whom came from difficult or traumatic situations. caring for animals feels completely natural to me. I do not see pets as “just animals.” I genuinely believe they are family members who deserve love, patience, emotional safety, and respect. In many ways, I believe animals carry one of the purest forms of unconditional love, and sometimes they deserve even more kindness and gentleness than humans receive. I have experience caring for pets with very different personalities, medical conditions, and emotional needs, including senior pets, rescue animals, anxious dogs, and cats requiring medication and special routines. I am highly attentive to behavioral changes, feeding routines, emotional comfort, cleanliness, and creating calm environments where animals feel safe and relaxed.

Elisa was wonderful with our Chow Chow, Poppy. Chows can be a little reserved with new people, but Elisa was incredibly patient, calm, and understanding, which helped Poppy feel comfortable. She kept us updated with messages and photos throughout the stay, and it was clear Poppy was well cared for and happy. She also took great care of our home and was thoughtful, reliable, and easy to communicate with from start to finish. We came home to a relaxed dog and everything exactly as we left it, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. We would absolutely book Elisa again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate sitter!! Thank you Elisa!

We had a meet and greet with Sumaira for our need to have doggie care, cat care and house sitting for a week. Sumaira has lots of experience and confidence which put us at ease. Our senior cat requires daily meds 2xs per day and our newly adopted 5 y.o. Golden can be rambunctious- Sumaira was at ease caring for both. Our home was well taken care of and she even helped with an unexpected delivery. We received daily pictures and reassurances that all was well. We recommend Sumaira and will ask her to help us again soon.

David and Mabel took excellent care of our 2 year old lab. It was great knowing our puppy was comfortable at home with professional and thoughtful care. They understand dogs, how to care for them and the importance of communicating with the pet parents. Our home was left cleaner than when we left, which we greatly appreciated! We will definitely continue to use them when we are away!

I have never used Rover before and Erin by far exceeded every expectation I had. We had her stay with our newly adopted dog for two nights and our dog loved her. We had our neighbors help out before and our dog wouldn't let them near her, but with Erin, our dog was her sweet self. Erin was punctual and made me feel at ease right away. She also left our house just as we left it. I would highly recommend Erin for any pet sitting needs.

Elisabeth is kind, responsive, and provides the highest level of care for pets - she is better than we ever imagined a sitter on Rover could be! We will without question be requesting Elisabeth again to care for our cat while we are away. She gave us such a peace of mind that our cat was in great hands that we will consider adjusting our travel plans to ensure that Elisabeth is available to care for our cat. We were a bit nervous to leave our super senior cat with very specific medical needs, but Elisabeth quickly helped us relax into vacation mode! She took the most amazing care of our sweet cat - giving her daily medications (oral, topical, and injections). Elisabeth sent daily updates - including weighing how much food our cat ate (just like we do) so we had accurate data to provide to our vet. She purchased supplies that would help us dispense a new medication easier. Elisabeth also left our home in pristine condition - she even washed the sheets and made the bed before leaving.

Madeline did an amazing job watching our two cats and dogs while my husband and I were out of town. She made sure to always check in and give the best updates. I always believe animals are great judges of character and all four of our animals took to her right away.

Irina watched my small dog who doesn’t do well with being left alone for a long time while I attended a wedding and my dog was so relaxed and happy with Irina when I came back! Irina is great about sending pictures and updates and amazing with my dog. Thank you Irina!

We had a wonderful meet and greet with Val! She is so attentive and caring. Our dog Ruthie can be nervous with new people but she really seems to love and feel comfortable with her. We can tell Val loves animals and truly treats them as her own. We look forward to her future stays. Thank you so much Val!
