“Thank you for such an incredible experience my first time back to work. Petey and I are so grateful for you and Kome! We can’t wait to work with you in the future and play at the park.”
“Megan did such an amazing job taking care of our pup for us. It is obvious that she LOVES dogs, and our dog LOVED her. She sent us lots of pictures and videos and went completely above and beyond what was expected. We are so grateful and will definitely ask Megan to take care of our pup again, especially since I’m pretty sure our dog misses her already. Thank you so much, Megan!”
“Jisselle took wonderful care of my cat! He loved her and jumped right into her arms when he met her. She was punctual, communicated well and often, and she followed the specialized instructions. I will definitely be using her again!”
About: I am a devoted cat mom of 6 years, so I understand how important our fur babies are to us. While you're away, I will provide the same level of attention and care to your beloved pet as I give to my own. I'm best suited for quieter, easygoing pets, so if your pet is super high-energy or needs a lot of extra activity, I may not be the perfect match. Otherwise, you can count on me for open, consistent communication so you can relax knowing your pet is safe and sound in good hands! I'm currently working part-time delivering food to residents in the Bay Area, so I will have plenty of availability to look after your pet! Have you ever seen, THE Cat Daddy, Jackson Galaxy on Youtube? When I first adopted my cat, I spent hours watching his videos. As a result, I understand how to play with cats, when to respect their boundaries, and how to spot when something's off.
“Very appreciative of Maia taking great care of my dog Daisy during her check in! Greatly appreciated the updates and Daisy seemed to get along with Maia from the start.”
“Daria was amazing with our cat! She spent a good amount of time getting to know her and playing with her. We came back to a happy kitty! I would highly recommend Daria to any cat parent looking for a responsible and caring sitter.”
“Natasha did drop in visits for my 2 skittish cats. She was prompt in replying to my inquiry. She followed the care instructions for the kitties. I will use her services again.”

About: Hi, Meghan here, I have always been a dog-lover. I live in Oakland with my mom, a fellow dog-lover! I allow our furry friends on the couch, but can also work on furniture-boundaries if your pooch isn't allowed on furniture at your own home. I work from home, so I'll be home most of the day during the weekdays. The longest your pup will be home alone (with my pups) is around 5 hours. I am comfortable with big dogs. I can give medications, and can brush your pooch as well! Here's a little about us: Meghan has been a dog-lover since birth. She grew up with dogs of all shapes and sizes. Treesa loves pups of all sizes! Meet my pets: Just the dogs! About my yard We have a fenced backyard. My experience administering medication We are comfortable administering oral medication. **We do have a Potty Clause. We understand accidents happen, and are very forgiving, as pups are often excited and can't help themselves at first. However, we have occasionally had extreme repeat offenders. We take dogs on the basis that they are potty trained. If we feel there are an excessive number of indoor incidents, we will let you know, and ask for a $10 additional fee (per week, or fraction thereof), to cover the cost of laundry and cleaning supplies.** Thanks! I work from home so your pup will hang out with me at home, join me on walks, and get to spend the day with me! I have a fenced yard. Security gate at my back door means fresh air without escape opportunity. We're working on installing a dog door, so that should happen later this year!
“Briana has been such a huge help with our pups! She is attentive, caring, provides constant updates and is quick to respond. We’re looking fwd to continuing to work with Briana!”
About: With 16 years of hands-on experience, I bring a calm, confident energy that pets (and their humans!) trust. I’m currently caring for my own sweet 15-year-old senior pup, so I’m especially tuned in to the needs of older pets—whether it’s medication, slow strolls, or just a little extra TLC. I’ve seen it all, from wiggly puppies to wise old souls, and I treat every pet like they’re family. My goal? To make tails wag and hearts feel at ease. Pet care fits naturally into my routine—I work from home and have a flexible schedule, so I’m available during the day for walks, check-ins, or cuddle breaks. Whether it’s a midday stroll or a bit of playtime to break up the day, I love incorporating pet care into my everyday rhythm. It keeps me moving, smiling, and surrounded by furry joy—what could be better? In my home, pets are treated like part of the family! I have a sweet senior dog who’s very friendly and laid-back, so visiting pets get a calm, welcoming vibe. I’ve got a fenced-in backyard for safe outdoor time, and I’m happy to follow whatever routine makes your pet feel most comfortable—whether that means crate time, couch time, or anything in between. In clients' homes, I aim to keep their pet’s routine consistent and stress-free, with lots of love, attention, and belly rubs!

About: I have had animals since I was a child and I have always been very responsible and loving towards my furry friends. I am very good with dogs cats and small animals like rats, mice, guinea pigs etc. I may be young but I have a lot of experience with animals and I care about them so much!! I am very calm and patient with animals and I understand how new people or situations can be scary for them. I just want your fur babies to be as comfortable as possible. I am currently in college at Chabot community college. I’m usually at school at least three days a week, but it varies from semester to semester. I always make sure that i follow the instructions given to me by the pets parent. I also will make sure that your fur baby gets the proper care, love and attention as needed. I always double check doors, windows and cages to make sure that they are all locked and secured properly before and after the visit. I will make sure that there is food and water available and if you have a feeding schedule just let me know and I will follow it. I always check your pets living, eating and sleeping areas for anything that could possibly be harmful and I’ll make sure to clean it up and let you know.
About: With my big yard and love for long hikes your pet will be happy and active. I have had dogs my whole adult life, and have owned and worked with very big and/or reactive dogs, so know how to handle them. I also volunteer with a rescue, helping in their kennels and with their foster program. I work from home so my schedule is always very flexible and I am never gone for long. I have a large fenced yard with lots to sniff. During the hot months with have a doggie pool to chill out, and we always spend the cool evenings snuggled up inside the house. I work from home, so am typically here all day. We try to do a hike every day, usually in the morning. Then it's play time! I have a fully fenced yard with lots of space and a very friendly and young Aussie Shepherd that loves to play with all dogs. I am also separately fully insured.
“We had Nia drop by twice a day to help take out our 17 yr old dachshund for potty breaks. She was always on time, very professional, and extremely communicative. She also sent lots of photos to let us know how things were going. We will be looking to have Nia do drop-in visits in the future and overnight stays.”
Golf Links pet parents share their Rover experiences
Another great experience having Vanessa check in on my cat Snorri. She is reliable, a great communicator with her detailed Rover reports and pics, and overall a thoughtful and nice person. When I'm away, I never worry and have a piece of mind that my kitty and home are safe and in great caring hands. Highly recommended!
We love having Angie! She always does an amazing job caring for our boy while we’re away! She has great communication skills and is always on top of everything! We will use her again and again and recommend her for anyone needing someone trustworthy to love and care for their pet!
I had the pleasure of meeting Christina and having her stay in our home, and we couldn’t be happier. We have three dogs, and when I came home they were clearly content and well cared for—I know this because they were happily exhausted! Christina sent us the most adorable photos during her stay, which brought us so much peace of mind. Our home looked wonderful as well—honestly, even better than when we left it. Our dogs each have big personalities and very specific needs, and Christina listened carefully and followed everything exactly as we discussed. We are so grateful to have her in our lives now and felt completely confident that our dogs were safe, loved, well fed, and truly cared for. That’s all anyone could ever want. And she is very cool and patient! Lucky us!
Jiaji is an incredibly caring and loving sitter. She took excellent care of my cat, DeeDee, and kept me updated throughout the stay with detailed and thoughtful notes, which gave me so much peace of mind. One day, DeeDee unexpectedly threw up on the couch, and Jiaji handled everything so responsibly—she cleaned it right away and also checked with me to see if DeeDee needed any medication. Her attentiveness and communication really stood out. You can truly feel her genuine love and care for animal friends. We were very happy to have Jiaji as our cat caregiver while we were away, and I would absolutely recommend her to other pet parents.
