“Angie was great. She was very responsive and kept us updated throughout the entire time she took care of both our pups. The pups were healthy and happy and our home was kept clean. We would have her house sit for us again.”

“Nicole went beyond our hopes! Nicole regularly sent pictures and updates. We could see how happy our guy was. When we came home be was relaxed and not at all stressed from us being away (as he had been after other sitters). Nicole followed all instructions to care for our guy was is a little high maintenance due to back trouble. Nicole discovered his favorite games and even gave him a nice brushing at the end of their time together. We were so pleased and would love to have Nicole come back!”

“Dane was very good with Peanut and took many cute photos of their walk! He even watered some plants he noticed needed it! We are excited to have him stay with her while we are on our vacation”

“Johnatan took care of my dog for 2 weeks. He’d feed her and walk her twice a day. He was always respectful and kept me posted about my dog’s activities. He washed the linens before departing and even gave my dog a quick bath (he forgot the blow-drying part though). As much as I’d like to give him 5 stars, there’s still room for improvement as he forgot to leave the sliding door open for the dog to go outside leading to the dog peeing and popping inside of the house. He sometimes took 8+ hours to get back home and a couple of nights he wasn’t able to return at all and my dog slept alone. The latter due to he working part time at a place located 1 hr away from our home. Overall, a thrustful boy who just needs to get more experience.”

“Alyssa is an incredible sitter who pays close attention to detail and asks a lot of questions to better understand your pet's schedule. I couldn't have asked for a better sitter!”

“Lanie was friendly, communicative, and caring. She did a wonderful job taking care of our two big dogs for a week. They were happy and healthy when we got home. We will employ her in the future when we need great treatment of our dogs.”

About: I grew up with 6 pit bulls, taking sun baths with them in my backyard. I’ve volunteered in SF SPCA and donate monthly. My best friend aka Herita is a rescue, she’s been with me for over 3 years now. I believe animals have taught me how to love unconditionally and responsibly. Calm, trust and safety are my top priorities. I hope you give me the chance to connect with you and your fur baby/ babies. I work from home. I normally take Hera on a walk every morning for about 30 mins. Come back and hit the gym. After that I’m free. I can always head over in the am, afternoon or evenings. I have a fenced yard, Herita is spayed and loves to play with other dogs. Her bff is a 3 y/o Doberman. Which I take care of a couple of times a week (take her out on walks and feed her)
About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and genuinely love caring for them. I have a 8 year old Miniature Pinscher, Norman, who has taught me a lot about patience, routines, and making dogs feel safe and comfortable in their own way. (I don’t have him with me full time) I’m comfortable with dogs of different personalities and energy levels, and I’m happy to follow your pup’s usual routine, whether that means long walks, playtime, plenty of cuddles, or simply keeping them company. I’ll treat your dog like my own and keep you updated while you’re away. I am home in the morning and evenings on the weekdays. I am free to take your pets out on walks every couple hours or as needed. I prioritize safety and trust by maintaining a clean, secure environment for pets. I ensure their routines are followed, provide plenty of playtime and affection, and always keep a close eye on them to prevent any accidents. Your pets will feel comfortable and cared for in my home or yours. I have a fenced in yard as well
About: Greetings! I'm Patrick. I've done a bunch of pet and house sitting on another platform, as well as for family, friends and acquaintances, besides having my own pets or sharing them with past partners. I used to practice massage therapy and reiki. I bring a similar intention to handling pets that I brought to responding to clients needs. I'd like to do part-time pet care in the East Bay, with some availability to housesit for longer sits around the full Bay Area. I can be more spontaneous for pet care near Oakland depending upon the timing. For longer resident sits please try to give me a week or two notice with a request. I'll see what works. Thanks! What an honor it is to care for people's homes and pets! I feel excited to transition my pet and house-sitting to this platform. Thanks for your consideration. I enjoy caring for pets and homes. I appreciate the trust-building process, staying accountable and growing as a person, all which these experiences foster. I intend to be a respectful well-communicating sitter and to provide a safe fun atmosphere for your pets. I appreciate receiving questions and feedback during a video chat or in person meet and greet where we get to know each other.
“Natalia is very sweet and kind to the dogs and took good care of them while we were away for a weekend. She stayed at our home, keeping the dogs happy and without stress. I will definitely ask for her again when the need arises, and I highly recommend her.”

“We had a great experience with our dog /house sitter, Julia! She was reliable, caring, and kept us updated with photos and messages throughout the stay. She also kept our home clean and treated it with respect. It was clear our dog was happy, well cared for, and received plenty of attention and love. We felt completely at ease knowing our pet was in such good hands. We would definitely recommend her and would happily book with her again!”

“Tami took amazing care of my older kitty Charlie, I can really tell she loves and cares for animals deeply. I’m relieved to have found Tami and thankful that Charlie has a great sitter for future visits!”

About: I grew up surrounded by pets and have spent my entire life caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. For over 12 years, friends and family have trusted me as their go-to person for walking, feeding, bathing, and looking after their animals — long before I made it a profession. I have experience with puppies, senior dogs, anxious pets, and multi-dog households. Every pet in my care gets photo and video updates throughout the day so you always know your dog is happy, safe, and loved. Caring for pets fits naturally into my routine because I intentionally keep a flexible schedule to provide reliable, attentive care. I also believe in consistency, communication, and treating every pet like they’re my own are what give owners peace of mind while they’re away. Your pet’s safety is my top priority. I respect your home and follow your instructions closely. I provide regular photo and video updates for peace of mind, and I’m experienced with dogs of all temperaments, including anxious, seniors and special needs pets. Potty breaks will be according to however the owner pet would like to keep your dog comfortable and on routine.
“Christina was a wonderful care taker for our pets and house. She provided timely updates and communications. The pets where very happy and well cared for when we got home. I could not recommend her enough for anyones furry friends.”


About: I enjoyed house-sitting for various friends and family through college. I grew up owning a dog, and my ASD-focused high school had a weekly dog class requirement that, in addition to simple training classes, used dogs as a metaphor for understanding nonverbal communication. Because of that, I can easily intuit how animals are feeling in a given moment. I always approach cats and dogs with a calm persona, trying to meet them on their level. Happy to be either a cuddle buddy or a meal ticket! I was recently laid off from my 9-5, and I’ve decided to switch my gears for a while. I’m available almost full-time. However, I am a freelance musician with an infrequent and unpredictable performance schedule. I’ll always strive to keep my availability as up-to-date as possible to avoid any potential surprises. As I stated previously, I’m always working to make any animal feel safe around me, and that they can trust me. When I first meet a cat or dog, I always kneel to meet them at their level. At home, I live simply. I’m not ashamed to call myself a homebody. I do practice frequently, but I can take measures to greatly reduce my volume or simply avoid practice during an extended stay, pending any future gigs. I live in a condo right on the estuary, with a walking path that leads right to Jack London Sq. There are other dog owners in the building. It’s a good community, and right by Estuary Park. I may not have a backyard, but it’s a darn good compromise.
“Yasmeen was amazing! She was so friendly, communicative, and warm. She genuinely cares about building a relationship with the animals she looks after. She sends constant updates to let you know how things are going. She was a wonderful sitter and we would be so happy to have her look after our dog, Skylar, again! They became the best of friends. ?”

“Shivani was incredible and the best sitter we’ve had! She took such great care of our pup, our two cats, and our home. Our pup is fairly reactive and has some big feelings about the world, so it can be hard to find people she is comfortable with. She seemed to be quite at ease with Shivani and enjoyed her time with her! Our shy cat also loved Shivani! Shivani also sent a lot of updates about our pets, which was soooo incredibly helpful and really put us at ease while we were away! Truly can’t say enough positive things about her and we will definitely ask her to sit for us in the future!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Highland
We adopted our dog only a month ago, and we were a bit nervous about leaving her for a short trip since she was still acclimating to her new home, but once Alejandra came over to meet her, we knew she was in good hands. We especially liked that Alejandra had experience with reactive dogs since our dog is a bit reactive. Alejandra spent 3 nights with her, shared updates and photos, and left our house spotless. We would definitely feel good about leaving our dog with Alejandra again.

Christina was absolutely wonderful! We felt so safe and knew our golden baby was in the best hands. We’ve used a lot of rovers throughout the years and have never found someone as perfect as Christina. She is an incredible human with so much compassion. Would highly recommend Christina in every single way. Thank you for taking such good care of our baby!

Leo was amazing! This was our first time using Rover and our Bernese Mountain dog, Brandy, is an older dog with cancer who does not always warm rapidly to new people so we were a little anxious. However, Leo won Brandy over immediately. He was incredibly personable, knowledgeable about dogs and a delight to work with. We could not have been more pleased with his service and will absolutely request him again. The photos he sent of Brandy made us so relaxed while we were away because it was so obvious she was relaxed and happy.
Vania was super communicative and did a great job caring for my anxious shepherd while I was away for over a week. She cooked him eggs and rice when his tummy was upset for a few days and hung in there despite him keeping her awake the first night or two before he got used to a new person in the house. She gave him lots of play time and training time. It’s hard to find a sitter who can handle a crazy working line dog so I appreciate her care soo much!

First times a charm! 20 years of dog and house sitters. You know the winners when you see them. Angie was a winner. Super communicative. Obvious love for animals. And, she is an adult you can trust your house and pets to. Glad she was available on Rover and feel lucky to have found her.

Alex did a wonderful job house sitting for us and taking care of our cats for the weekend! Super professional, kind, and communicative. I was anxious about leaving our kittens for the first time, but we got daily updates and knew they were happy. The house was also spotless when we get home. Went smoothly and would gladly trust Lena and Alex to care for our kitties again!

Laura took fantastic care of our dog Athena! She sent lots of fun pictures of Athena while she was house sitting and left our house spotless. She was friendly and easy to communicate with throughout the booking process and during her stay. I highly recommend Laura and will definitely ask her to take care of Athena again!

I had a fantastic experience and highly recommend Patrice! She was incredibly communicative and sent great pictures, which really put my mind at ease. Not only did she take wonderful care of my dog, but she also took great care of the house. The entire process was so easy and stress-free. I will absolutely be using her again!

This was the best boarding experience we ever had! Tinwa and JieYing took such good care of 8 year old dog. Our dog has some special needs and they made sure all of his needs were met and gave him all of the attention in the world. We received photos and videos everyday of our dog having a great time. It was so nice to know that he was being loved and cared for rather than just fed and walked. Would 100% rebook again!

Mei was an absolutely amazing pet sitter! She took such wonderful care of my two kitties and treated my home with so much care and respect. She kept me updated with messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It was clear that she genuinely cared about my cats and made sure they were happy and comfortable. I came home to two relaxed, well-cared-for kitties and a spotless home. I feel so lucky to have found Mei and will absolutely be booking with her again!
