Annie did a great job taking care of our cats. We really appreciated how she played with them for a long time to keep them company while we were away. We’ll definitely book her again!

Chloe was amazing with my two cats. She was extremely prompt with her updates and I immediately knew within a day or two my cats would be ok while I was away. They grew to love her in just a few days and appeared to be waiting for her instead of me when I came back from my trip. Chloe is also very easy to communicate with and very sweet. Would definitely request again.

About: We are a couple who genuinely love animals and enjoy caring for them together. Mike grew up with a Golden Retriever named Lady and understands how to handle and care for dogs with patience and love. Lady spent her happy senior years together with our family, which gave us a lot of experience caring for an aging dog as well. Evie grew up with a Shih Tzu named Mashiro and was deeply involved in her care. Living with Mashiro taught them how sensitive and loving dogs are, and how important it is to provide gentle attention, patience, and a calm environment. We have already been caring for pets for some time and have built relationships with several private clients outside of Rover. Recently, we decided to join Rover to meet more wonderful pets and families in the community. We are always happy to send regular updates and photos so you can feel at ease while you’re away. We also enjoy being active, so dogs with lots of energy are absolutely welcome. Long walks, playtime, and exercise are no problem for us. We have a bicycle, which can be great for very active dogs that enjoy running. We treat every pet as if they were our own and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. We have a flexible schedule and are able to spend plenty of time caring for pets throughout the day. Evie is usually at home, which allows us to give pets consistent attention, walks, and playtime. We are available for boarding on weekdays and weekends and are happy to accommodate your pet’s normal routine as much as possible. Your pet’s safety and comfort are our top priorities. We provide a calm, clean, and safe environment where pets can relax and feel at home. We always pay close attention to each pet’s personality and needs, and we follow the owner’s instructions carefully regarding feeding, walks, and routines. We are also happy to send regular photo and video updates so you can feel reassured while you’re away.

About: For the past two years, I have had the rewarding experience of caring for an anxious dog. This journey has taught me the importance of patience, understanding, and consistency in pet care. I approach each interaction with care and respect, recognizing the unique needs and personalities of each pet. By creating a calm and supportive environment, I have helped my dog feel more secure and confident. This experience has deepened my commitment to providing gentle and compassionate care to all pets, ensuring they feel safe and loved. My schedule is open, allowing me to provide daily walks, healthy treats, and lots of pets, ensuring your pet receives the best care at any time. I can't take pets into my home, but I'm available to stop by and provide walks, healthy treats, and lots of pets in your home.

About: Dogs have always been a large part of my life, whether the pups were my own, my roommate’s, or my friends’. Currently, I don't have any fur babies of my own and this is the longest I've lived without one in my life, so I’m hoping that caring for your fur babies will help tide me over until I'm able to get one of my own! I have a lot of love and attention I’d love to shower your fur baby with, but I also have a lot of patience and persistence for those who need a more determined approach. I have experience working with big and small breeds and younger and senior mutts, as well as Boxers, Pit Bulls, Great Danes, Labradors, German Shepherds, and Golden Retrievers. For the past year I’ve been volunteering with the Peninsula Humane Society and SPCA for the past year, working specifically with reactive and fearful dogs. Prior to that I’ve volunteered at shelters all over the world. I’ve lived in a few different countries and within the US I’ve lived in Boston, Washington D.C., Florida, and now the Bay Area! I speak English and Hindi fluently, and am conversant in Spanish, French, and Arabic. I’m happy to learn how to say commands and sweet nothings in any language that your fur baby prefers. I have a BA in Biological Anthropology from Boston University and a Master’s in Public Health from George Washington University. I’m currently unemployed and looking for work in health care - but this just means my schedule is that much more open and flexible. I look forward to loving and caring for your pup while their favorite person is away. I’m currently unemployed and looking for work in health care - but this just means my schedule is that much more open and flexible. I'm happy to work on the schedule that works best for you. When caring for your pet in your own I am respectful, considerate, and clean. I understand that sharing your space with another person requires a lot of faith and understanding, and I endeavor to make sure we are both comfortable with the arrangement. I hold transparency and trust in very high regard! Along-side caring for your pet I'm happy to water plants or take care of any other living thing that might also need attention!

Rachel was super professional. Showed up when she said she would, took pictures documenting her feeding and playing with the cats, scooping the litter, taking in the mail, and setting out our bin for garbage pick up. Communication was spotless. Our kitties liked her, and she was very friendly and personable. Recommend completely.

About: Since I was 7 years old, I grew up with dogs and they have become my very best friends. About seven years ago, our senior dog, Biggie, guided me to Rover. He loved to meet new friends. After 18 amazing and beautiful years together, Biggie knew it was his time to say good-bye and crossed the Rainbow Bridge. His legacy of looking at the world through love has taught me many great lessons! Same goes for all the Dogs I've crossed paths with! Nothing can immediately uplift my spirits like a dog. The connections and the special bonds that I made with my Rover dog buddies over the years have been one of the most amazing experiences. *I understand 1000% about the feeling of leaving your dog when you have to go away or when he/she is home alone for long periods of time. Trust me that I've been through it too and it was never easy for me. That is why I want you to feel at ease and confident that you can put your trust in me. Drop-in & dog walking: Please reach out to me regarding dates so I can share my schedule for that time. Boarding:Your doggy will never be left alone when staying with us. Either me or my husband will be home if one of us has to go out. Or, if your dog enjoys car rides he/she is welcome to join depending on where we are going and factoring weather conditions. I am very open minded, communicative, honest, trustworthy, and head over heels for animals. You will receive pictures and updates everyday during your dog's stay. I also have a lot of experience and knowledge caring for senior dogs, dogs w/ special needs, and puppies. I promise when your pup is in my care, there will be nothing but undivided attention and unconditional love & respect. I will follow the owner’s instructions- walk, feed, what doggy likes to play with and what to be extra careful of, where they like to be pet, any particular fears, what makes them happy. 💕 (Boarding/Daycare) My priority when caring for your fur baby is creating a safe, comfortable, and happy space for everyone who walks through my door. My home is love and happiness…and clean! We have a beautiful, safe and private enclosed backyard for sunbathing. Our new neighborhood is open, clean, grassy, and safe when walking dogs! We also love when dogs sleep on our bed and they are always welcome on furniture. If you prefer they sleep in a crate, or separate, that’s fine too. If more than one dog is scheduled to be in my home, I take every precaution to ensure the personalities of each dog is a good fit before confirming the booking. It is an awesome experience witnessing our puppy guests making unexpected friends and connections during their stay.

About: About me: I recently graduated from a master's program in school counseling! I was raised in San Mateo and am very familiar with the area. I live with my husband and have no pets, but I frequently visit the family dogs I grew up with (and I spoil them like my own!). In my free time, I enjoy gardening, biking, watching reality TV, and quality time with loved ones! I’ve grown up with dogs in my family and have always been a natural dog lover; some might say I might spoil too much! I started dog-sitting one of my coworkers' dogs and realized how fun and relaxing it was for me! Since then, I've gained experience pet-sitting for extended periods, paying attention to dogs' routines and understanding the importance of a companion and a trusted presence while their favorite humans are away. I understand dogs are an extension of our families, and I will treat them as such :) I've been on Rover for a little under a year and have gotten experience in the following: Senior Dog Care (Up to 16 Years Old): Deeply familiar with the patience, gentle handling, and attentiveness required for senior pets. Medication Administration: Experienced and comfortable administering prescribed medications accurately and on time. Puppy Care & Training: Well-versed in the high-energy needs of puppies, including strict adherence to your established crate training routines, constant supervision, and maintaining behavioral structure. About my summer schedule: I am wokring a part time job M-F and will be avaialbe starting at 1pm. I will be fully available on weekends (except those already marked off in the app). **Safety:** Clear communication with the pet owner is essential for ensuring safety. Please inform me of any dietary or behavioral restrictions I should be aware of while sitting. For example, can the dog eat human food? Do they like being held? Are there any issues when taking them for a walk? I will carefully review the instructions you provide and ensure I have the emergency contact information for the nearest veterinary hospital in case of an emergency. **Trust:** I understand how much trust it takes to let someone into your home and care for your pet. As a fellow pet lover, I assure you that your pet will receive the company, attention, and supervision they need, as per your instructions. I am respectful, responsible, communicative, and passionate about dogs! Having had one of my own, you can be confident that I will treat your pet as my own. **Environment:** Please let me know if there are any areas in your home that are off-limits to me or your pet. Additionally, it would be appreciated if you could let me know about any security or pet cameras in the home so I can respect your privacy.

She even stayed longer than our original booking window to spend time and play with Capy. Took a lot photos and video to make sure we feel comfortable during our leave. Our cat is a shy boy, usually hide from strangers but not to Irina. He even showed his belly with trust to her, that says something!

But surprisingly he came to greet Julissa when she visited and even stayed close to her the entire time! That was the FIRST TIME we’ve ever seen! So she must have some magic that could make our cat very comfortable. Will rebook in the future!
