“Talia was excellent from start to finish. Prompt, friendly, responsive, sent pics of my dog during her visit, & dog clearly adored her. I came back to the house in the same condition I had left it in. It was the exact experience I was hoping for.”

“David was really great with our dog and two cats. He was very attentive, responsive and provided frequent and detailed photo updates which was very appreciated. David brought a very calm energy to looking after our pets, which was very helpful considering our dog can be quite anxious. I would highly recommend booking David for your petsitting needs. For us, it was our first time using Rover, so we were a little cautious to make sure we got the right person. I felt super at ease with David, and comfortable that he was taking good care of our animals. I will definitely look to him in the future!”

“Kathryn exceeded our expectations and our Maltipoo’s expectations house sitting for us! She was very responsive throughout the booking process and while at our house, sending us regular updates. She followed all our instructions and even left the house very tidy! We are happy to have met her and look forward to having her back housesitting for us again.”


“Coral was awesome! She was there for our dogs needs and kept him happy! Coral checked in with us and even sent us a pic showing our happy doggie. Her rates are very affordable with exceptional care. We will will definitely be using her again.”

About: With years of experience caring for pets of all kinds, I understand that every animal is unique. Whether it’s a playful puppy, a senior cat who loves a gentle routine, or an energetic dog in need of extra exercise, I provide personalized attention to ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. What sets me apart? ✅ **Reliable & Attentive:** I treat every pet as if they were my own, prioritizing their well-being and emotional needs. ✅ **Experienced in Special Care:** I’m familiar with administering medications, handling senior pets, and understanding different temperaments. ✅ **Flexible & Communicative:** I keep pet parents updated with detailed check-ins, photos, and reassurance that their furry family member is in great hands. ✅ **Passionate About Enrichment:** Whether it’s stimulating playtime, structured walks, or maintaining a comforting routine, I focus on keeping pets happy and engaged. I take pride in building trust—not just with pets, but with their humans too. If you're looking for a reliable, compassionate sitter who goes above and beyond, I’d love to connect! I work mostly from home, so I'll have plenty of time to hang out and play with your pets. I do occasionally have to go out, but I never exceed a 4-5 hour period of leaving your pets alone. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize keeping them in their familiar surroundings while maintaining their routine. I respect their space, provide companionship, and ensure they have everything they need—from fresh water and meals to enriching playtime and walks. Communication is key, so I keep pet parents updated with regular check-ins, photos, and any necessary observations.
“My crew absolutely loved Sharon and her positive energy. The photos she sent were pronominal, the communication was great. We will be hiring her again. Alsó appreciated her attention to detail when learning all the different routines and behavior patterns with my little ones. Thank you.”


“We were very happy with Allison. She is very sweet and was very good with our 2 dogs. 1 is a 4 month old puppy and we all know how challenging puppies can be! I would definitely use Allison again.”
“I was very happy with Pat’s good care of my dog Rosie. Pat would send me pictures and tell me what they were up to so I wouldn’t miss my dog too much. I will definitely use Pat again.”

“Ari was fantastic with my pup! She gladly took a last minute emergency need and was wonderful with my English Bulldog, Penny. Clearly comfortable around dogs and even when Penny was a little stubborn to leave me, Ari was able to easily get her moving and on her walk. Highly recommend her and I know Penny will be excited to see her again!”


About: Having 2 dogs of my own I am well versed in every aspect of making pets feel loved and cared for! I have cared for pets for nearly 8 years house sitting overnight, taking pups for lengthy walks and doing check ins/ feedings. I make it my mission to bond with your pet and make sure they are comfortable. I am available for pet sitting when I am home from college. My schedule is mostly flexible with majority of my availability being in the afternoons/evenings on weekdays and all day on weekends. I make sure that pets have the chance to warm up to me and that I put their needs first. I am comfortable with judging when a dog wants to go for a longer walk or head home early. Similarly with cats, I am able to gauge if a cat needs extra play time or if they want to be alone to nap. I will always check in with you as the owner before I sit, to make sure I know exactly what your pet needs!
About: I myself have pets and I too am hesitant to leave anyone with them. I will treat your pet like it’s my own and keep you updated every step of the way! I am actively trying to get as many steps in as I can per day, so I love going on long walks! But I also love chilling on the couch with a shy or non-active pet. I’m available in the mornings for drop-ins and walks as well as drop-ins and walks in the afternoon! For mid-day care, I am more available on the weekends or summer months. I love being active with pups! I like to make sure the pet feels loved and safe first and foremost and I make sure to keep great communication with the client! I am very adamant on making sure all the necessary tasks are completed as well.
“Brady was a wonderful dog/cat/house sitter, we would absolutely trust him to care for our critters again. Everything went super smoothly, I loved getting some pictures and videos of our buds while we were away. Thanks Brady!”

About: Sri Sharie is a long time animal lover, enthusiastic about the beauty that our animals share with us. I do some training, and I am an animal communicator 🙂🧚 I also delight in sharing timeless wisdom, natural remedies, and endless enthusiasm for all the animals... All creatures great and small. Holistic Health Professional for over 35 years, a Magical Genius in the Gene Keys system - my conscientious care and versatile tool kit are on offer throughout the Bay Area I am semi-retired from my professional practice as teacher of healing arts, and individual and couples therapist. I have a lot of experience with service animals. I love to connect the dots in terms of the stresses that we are experiencing in our own bodies and then how our animals respond, and sometimes they carry our burdens. I love to support clearing and balancing for everybody's health! Since my journey in the last decade, which I call my radical sabbatical, I am ever grateful to be connecting differently with people rather than simply as a therapist. We are all in this together, and love abounds! I grew up with dogs, and more dogs. We had German shepherds and a Mastiff when I was very young, later my mother raised Border Collies, and my sister raised Jack Russells. I do love to help train dogs when they need it, it is ever so important, and help the owners get in the best groove with their relationship to their precious companions... My mother also had a Maine Coon cat and a small dog that were best friends and I have to say this is my favorite thing ever... In the '70s I hitchhiked across the country with a kitten tucked in my parka...
“Melina was very responsive via messaging and easy to work with. She had a genuine affection for my pup and wanted to know his routine and habits to ensure she could provide quality care. Thank you Melina!”

“Parke was great with our two dogs and with us. He was responsive, timely, responsible, and professional. He sent photos every day and sommunciated with us as needed. We returned to a clean, orderly house and two happy, healthy dogs. I would definitely book with Parke again.”

About: From pill pockets to playtime, I’m an experienced vet tech with 15 years of hands‑on experience in Marin County, offering loving pet sitting for healthy pets and those needing medications, special diets, or recovery care. I’m especially comfortable working with anxious or sensitive pets, using patience and calm handling to help them feel safe and secure. I also have extensive experience caring for senior pets, including mobility support, chronic condition management, and gentle, attentive care. I’m flexible with schedules, routines, and last‑minute needs so your pet’s care fits seamlessly into their normal day while you’re away. In emergencies, I stay calm and act quickly, drawing on my veterinary experience to respond appropriately and keep pets safe. You’ll also receive daily updates and photos for peace of mind Pet care is an important part of my routine. I’m available for mornings, evenings, and scheduled visits or overnights with a few days’ notice. This allows me to plan ahead and provide consistent, attentive care, including timely feedings, medications, and quality time with each pet. I provide care exclusively in my clients’ homes for cats, dogs, and other small pets, allowing them to stay comfortable in their familiar environment and routines. I take time to learn each pet’s schedule, preferences, and personality, ensuring calm, consistent, and individualized care. Visits include feeding, fresh water, litter box or potty care, enrichment through play or companionship, and close observation of behavior and wellbeing. With 15 years of veterinary technician experience, I’m confident providing in‑home medical care for a wide range of pets, including oral and injectable medications (such as insulin), Sub‑Q fluids, special diets, and senior or post‑procedure support. I’m especially experienced with anxious, shy, or medically complex pets and use gentle, low‑stress handling appropriate for both cats and dogs and other pets. I respect my clients’ homes, keep everything clean and organized, and provide daily updates and photos. If a concern or emergency arises, I stay calm and respond appropriately using my veterinary experience. My goal is to provide safe, reliable, and loving in‑home care giving both pets and their people peace of mind.

About: I’ve worked with young dogs and understand the extra patience, structure, and energy they need. Got a high-energy pup who needs to run? I’m in. Got a mellow dog who just wants company on the couch? That works too. I adapt to what your individual dog needs rather than sticking to one mode because every dog is different. ChemE students don’t cut corners, I apply that same precision to pet care. Feeding times, medications, walk routes, behavioral notes. I pay attention to the details that matter and I communicate proactively if anything seems off. Unlike sitters juggling work or classes, I’m home for the summer with real time to give your dog. With a flexible summer schedule, I build my day around your dog walks, feeding, playtime, and checkins come first, every time. I am available anytime and willing to go above and beyond. I follow your pet’s exact routine feeding schedules, walks, medications, and habit whether I’m in your home or mine, consistency and comfort always come first.
“Vanessa watched our sweet lab Utah for 10 days while we went on vacation. I could tell Vanessa truly loves caring for animals as she spent so much time with Utah to make sure she was happy. Utah got multiple walks a day, played fetch at the park and lots of snuggles. It was quite a challenge to get Utah to part ways with Vanessa once we returned from vacation. They had become the best of buds. We are so glad to have finally found our go-to sitter for when we leave town. We also made her our regular walker as Utah demands having her in our lives!”

“Krystle treated my 15 yr+ baby with love and care. She was kind enough to meet us ahead of the scheduled time to see if we agreed it would be a good fit long term. She left my place tidy and took great care of my sweet girl. Next time we will try a longer stay to see how she does. It was great having someone who understands the needs of senior pups.”

Cory has taken care of my "easy" dog, Ginger, before. Then I double down and asked her to dog-sit both my dogs. Pepper is lovely... but a bit spicy with other dogs and has a prey drive that doesn't quit. All went well, and I returned home to two happy and healthy pups:-)

Talia was wonderful with our dog! She sent the most adorable pictures throughout her stay which made being away so much easier. Our dog warmed up to her immediately which says a lot. Came home to find everything just as we left it and would absolutely recommend her!
We could not have asked for a better cat sitter than Marilee, she not only took exceptional care of our kitten, but also went above and beyond to ensure he was stimulated and happy while we were away. She brought him things like string toys and newspapers to play with- which kept him really active and entertained. In addition to her A++ care, she also was great communicating with us. I loved getting little videos and pictures of him every day. I highly recommend Marilee- she really is a cat whisperer! Marilee also

Susan was amazing. We were very concerned about leaving our three dogs for the first time in years especially our 16 yr old with health issues. However, Susan did an incredible job handling the special needs of all three dogs from food issues to medications. On our first meet and greet we could see she was truly an animal lover and had the patience and disposition we were looking for as a dog/house sitter. We would highly recommend Susan to anyone who is looking for to care for their fur babies while out of town. We will definitely be using Susan again!

This is our first time using Rover to find someone to come into our home and take care of our pets. I like the reviews of Ryan and scheduled a meet and greet with him to make sure he would comfortable with staying at the house. My main concern was keeping the dog and cat separated since they don't get along. Ryan sent me updates of how things were going, which was reassuring. Joplin (dog) really liked Ryan and she doesn't like everyone. We came home from our trip and Joplin was very happy to see us. Joplin actually looked the next morning to see if Ryan was still in the spare room :-). I would definitely use Ryan again in the future.

Elena took excellent care of our home and kitty. Our house was spotless when we arrived back at home, cleaner than when we left, which was definitely not expected at all! And most of all, Sunny was happy and healthy when we returned! I’m so lucky to have found Elena!!

I could not ask for a better Pet Sitter. Noelle took incredible care of my pets who and she also took wonderful care of my home. She was easy to communicate with and was quick to respond. She sent photos when I asked her to, as I was missing them. It’s hard to be away but knowing they were in such capable and caring hands made it much easier. I’m grateful for Noelle.
