“Kathryn was absolutely amazing! She provided exceptional care, and all my furry friends adored her. Her professionalism, kindness, and attention to detail made a real difference. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet caregiver!”
“David is an incredible sitter! He connected with all four (yes, FOUR) of my animals (3 cats + 1dog) while we were away. He provided frequent updates with pictures and didn’t hesitate asking questions. David offers a calm energy, is completely attentive, enjoys playing and connecting with each animal and bonded with them so effortlessly - he is amazing! Thank you, David, for taking such incredible care of our fur-family!”
“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!”
“Jaylynn did a great job taking care of our two pups. She let us know when she arrived, how they were doing after she’d been with them for a while and when she was leaving. They were fine when we got home.”
About: I’ve been caring for pets for over 7 years and genuinely love helping people who have busy schedules, long work days, or travel often. I know how important it is to have someone trustworthy caring for your pets while you’re away, and I treat every animal like they’re my own. I’m patient, dependable, and experienced with dogs of different sizes, ages, and personalities. I also have a 2-year-old Goldendoodle of my own, so I understand how important it is to make sure pets feel safe, happy, loved, and well cared for. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or just giving them attention and comfort, I always make sure every pet gets the care they deserve. I currently work part-time as a supervisor at Marinwood Pool, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to care for pets throughout the week. I enjoy staying active, so walks, playtime, hikes, and giving pets attention fit naturally into my daily routine. I’m reliable, responsive, and always make sure pets get the care and companionship they need while their owners are busy or away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I have a friendly 2-year-old Goldendoodle of my own and a safe, welcoming home where pets are welcome to stay if needed. However, I usually prefer overnight stays at the owner’s home because I know many pets feel most comfortable in their familiar environment and routine. I always make sure pets feel safe, loved, well cared for, and receive plenty of attention while you’re away.
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.
“Katya did a great job taking care of Benny while we were away! She is very sweet and responsible. Benny snuggled up to her in no time. She took great care of our home too. Would re-book without hesitation!”
“Imani was great with my dog. They bonded quickly and had a wonderful time together. Imani sent me daily updates and photos to reduce my separation anxiety and it was reassuring to know my pet was in such good hands. Imani took great care of the house while I was away too. Highly recommend her!!”
“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.”
“Lydia is amazing. Not only did she know how to gain my kitty’s trust and keep her happy and occupied, she also administered daily medication. Lydia is also a great communicator, flexible with her time and clearly devoted to my pet. I couldn’t have left her in better care and will definitely be booking her again.”

“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.”
“Parke stayed over the holiday break and was a thoughtful and engaged house and pet sitter for my two dogs Oreo (9) and Apollo (1) along with cat Amelia. His care and communication were incredible, I am so grateful to have found him on Rover. I look forward to having him stay again in the future. Thank you Parke!”
About: I have over 6 years of experience caring for dogs and cats through pet sitting, dog walking, and general animal care. I grew up around pets and animals my whole life, so I am very comfortable with different personalities, routines, and care needs. I truly enjoy spending time with both my own pets and other people’s pets, and I always try to make sure they feel safe, cared for, and comfortable while their owners are away. I am currently home from college for the summer and am not working a job so I have plenty of time to work with your pets. I spend most of my time in nature, working out, or spending time with my own pets so taking care of your pets would be my main priority and responsibility. I always prioritize your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine. I will follow your specific guidelines for things like backyard access, leash rules, off-leash activity, and whether your pet is allowed to interact with other animals. Just let me know your preferences and boundaries, and I will make sure to follow them carefully.
About: Hi Pet parents! My name is Sophie and I’ve been a dog owner for all 19 years I’ve been alive - using all of that time to gain experience walking, taking care of, cleaning up after, training, and ensuring the safety of my pups. I’m comfortable with any size level and activity level- I’ve seen it all! I also have experience house sitting and taking care of friend’s/family’s pets while they are away. I’m looking to take care of some animals while I’m home from college for the summer because it’s what I do best! Thank you for entrusting me with the health and needs of your baby 🩷 I’m a college student who is home for the summer! I’m not working any jobs outside of this, so I can give your pup all of the love and attention and exercise they deserve! I have a fenced yard so there is no risk of running into the road and a large house/yard for the dogs to play around in. I have a 10 year old Boston terrier who is extremely friendly and she loves making new friends! If your dog doesn’t work well with others, I have enough space to separate them completely and comfortably.
“Cory was excellent! We did a meet and greet before the stay to go over feeding, medications and questions. She arrived exactly on time, which is unusual in this day/age. Was not phased that my dog(s) are pitties. Left for my trip a bit apprehensive about having a new dog/house sitter... but hopeful. I received pictures daily! I came home to a happy, perky pup and a clean place. Definitely will ask (or beg) Cory to come back:-) Looking forward to my next trip!”
“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.”

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!

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.
Olivia was wonderful - very attentive, communicative, and trustworthy. I felt my elderly special needs kitty was in very good hands, which was a huge relief. She stuck to the somewhat involved medication schedule including insulin injections flawlessly, and was very communicative about any questions or concerns. She was warm, personable, professional, and left the home clean and well cared for. I highly recommend her!
We couldn’t be more grateful for the amazing care Alison provided while looking after our three senior dogs for two nights. Managing older pups can be a lot of work with their routines, medications, and comfort needs, but she handled everything with such patience, responsibility, and genuine love. She kept us updated with thoughtful check-ins and photos, which gave us total peace of mind while we were away. The dogs were clearly comfortable, happy, and well cared for — which says a lot given their age and quirks. It’s never easy to leave senior pets, but she made the whole experience stress-free. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate sitter, and we’ll definitely be booking with her again!
Stella has been regularly walking Benny now and has done a great job and she recently day sat him for us while we were away all day. She gave him lots of love, walks and his dinner and he was very happy to have her company. We feel very comfy with Stella watching benny and in our house! We will be booking her again in the future for sure!
