“I have been out of town recently, and Kimberly has been my go-to Rover to watch my 15 year old Labrador Paws. Kimberly is very communicative and sends tons of pictures and updates. It warms my heart and puts me at ease when I need to be away from home.”
“Satine was great. She was highly communicative, responsive and took the dog all over town! I have rarely seen Zorro happier in his photos. Satine left my home sparkling clean and Zorro was relaxed when I found him. I look forward to working with her again”
About: Hi, I’m Nicole! I’m a San Francisco-based pet sitter with a background in healthcare, which makes me especially comfortable caring for pets with special needs, medications, or anxiety.

I understand how important routine is, and I take the time to make each pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in their own environment. Pet parents often tell me they appreciate my attention to detail and communication—I provide regular updates and photos so you can feel at ease while you’re away. I’m reliable, respectful of your home, and committed to following all care instructions closely, whether that’s feeding schedules, medications, or specific routines. I currently have a flexible schedule and am available for drop-ins, walks, and house sitting on both weekdays and weekends.

I’m also responsive and able to provide updates during visits I prioritize creating a safe, calm, and clean environment for every pet.

“Tobin was excellent taking care of our Frenchie Charlotte! We got daily updates of walks, naps, and meals. Tobin stayed at our place and left it spotless! Would for sure recommend”
“Joe dog sat with us for 4 days at our home. We met him up earlier to make sure he and Nala were a good fit. Throughout our trip, he was kind, reliable, and responsive. We are so happy to have had him. Nala did great with him!”
“Tania is fabulous. I came home to a tidy house and happy dogs. She kept me up to date with photos and news on the pups daily. I will hire Tania again. This was also very last minute and I was able to trust her right away. I am very thankful I took a chance with Rover. It worked out well.”
“Joytika stayed with my senior cat Taylor and did a great job of attending to her special needs, socializing with her, and looking after her and my apartment over two weeks during the holiday months. When I returned the apartment was just as I had left it, and Taylor was clearly happy with having a new friend and sitter while I was away. Would recommend booking Joytika!”
“Shihua was so sweet and amazing! She looked after our six-year-old Frenchie and our six month old kitten for four days and nights. It was obvious they both loved her and felt comfortable. I would definitely hire her again in a second!!”
About: I'm a huge cat lover and have taken care of family cats for most of my life. In college, my partner and I adopted a cat of our own, Ophelia, who I pamper and play with every day. I'm passionate about going above and beyond to accommodate all of you and your cat's needs and preferences to ensure I'm providing high-quality, personalized care. Having grown up around cats and being passionate about continuous learning on how to best care for them, I'm very knowledgeable about cat body language cues and behavior. With this knowledge, I'm able to understand and resolve behavioral issues accordingly, whether that means simply giving a cat some space, understanding that they would probably like to play rather than be petted (or via versa), or figuring out why they seem to be avoiding their litter box and doing my best to fix the issue. In addition to my general experience, I also have experience with and am passionate about taking care of cats with special needs. I'm able to administer medication and carefully monitor cats to ensure that they stay healthy and happy. When I was walking home from class in my senior year of college, I found an injured cat on the side of the road and immediately took her to the emergency vet. The vet told me she had a broken pelvis, but that she would likely be able to heal without surgery if given the proper care. She was not able to walk, so I took care of her, cleaning her every day and administering her pain medication every eight hours for a week until I was luckily able to reunite her with her family! I learned that her name was Tessie and that she was a Maine Coon. Tessie's family kept me updated on her healing and I was so happy to hear that she was able to make a full recovery from her injury and walk again. I'm so proud of the part I played in Tessie's healing and want to treat your kitty with the same love and care! I'm a recent college graduate working a remote job and an in-person part-time job a few days a week in addition to cat-sitting. Because of my flexible schedule, I can ensure that I will always be able to make time in my schedule to care for, play with, and pamper your kitty. I will closely follow all instructions regarding feeding your cat, giving your cat care and attention, brushing your cat, playing with your cat with whatever toys he/she prefers, scooping the litter box on a daily basis, and cleaning up the feeding area and litter box area to make sure you come home to a clean house. I take plenty of pictures each day to give you peace of mind that your cat is in good hands. I'm also happy to do other small tasks around the house such as bringing in packages and watering plants.
“I hired Caroline at the last min and she is amazing. One of my cats can be a bit reserved and she warmed up to her new sitter immediately. Caroline is kind, professional, great with updates, and a legit cat whisperer. We will definitely be hiring her again.”
“Aoife watched my home, my dog and my cat for a week. She was conscientious, attentive and communicative. And my animals loved her! I would definitely hire her again and I would highly recommend her to other pet parents. Thanks Aoife!”
“Destiny took excellent care of Blaze and José during our week away. Our pets have complex needs - José requires specific prescription food timing with medications, and Blaze needs careful management around other dogs and has detailed walk requirements. She followed all instructions precisely, including José's cone care and Blaze's leash protocols. She communicated proactively when needed and left the house in good shape. We'd definitely hire her again and recommend her for anyone with pets that need more than basic care.”
“Melissa was a fantastic sitter and I’d love to work with her again. My dog felt comfortable with her immediately. She kept me in the loop with updates while I was away and I had a lot of peace of mind knowing he was in good hands. Communication, logistics, and coordination were all a breeze.”
About: I'm a foreigner and I should have left my little Hachi and Bailey in my country with their grandmother, my mom🤣 it's hard to be away from them and my way of spreading the love I feel for animals is by helping to take care of them, even for a couple of hours. I can guarantee that I will take care of them and give them love for as long as you need as if they were mine❤️ The work you currently do leaves me a lot of freedom of time, it can be said that I am my own boss, I can adapt to the time I need to take care of your pets, it would only be a matter of talking about it beforehand and with time. I really have availability every day I don't have dogs at home, my garden is fenced but my apartment is small and I consider it preferable to play or take care of pets in their comfort zone, but I have no problem bringing them home if necessary.
“Alex did a great job taking care of Emmy for five nights. Emmy warms up to her more each visit. We highly recommend Alex; she is very tuned in to Emmy’s feelings and her needs. Alex lets us know how Emmy is doing frequently with texts and photos. We are so glad we chose Alex.”
About: I’ve done pet sitting for years, and know the kind of care that dogs need. I work remotely and also have my own dog, a sweet golden retriever who gets along well with others. Besides the basics of bathroom breaks and walks, dogs need love! I want to give dogs a safe and happy experience in my home! I love to work out, and I would enjoy being able to bring a dog along with me! You can expect frequent runs or hikes, as well as lots of care and attention! I work remotely (same with my husband) and frequently take my own dog out. I can be flexible to your pets needs depending on whatever they need! I can also help with medications, special feedings, etc. I make sure a pet is feeling safe, secured, and loved. I treat any home as if it were my own and any dog as such as well.
“Leslie was great. She was a good communicator before the sit and my dog loved her. She stayed after I got home to let me know how my dog was. I would definitely recommend her.”
Inner Sunset pet parents share their Rover experiences
Brooke was fantastic!!! We have a quite nervous dog who is slow to warm up to people and particular in his preferences, and Brooke was really amazing with him. She listened carefully to our instructions, taking notes and asking questions to clarify. Brooke understands how to listen to what dogs need -- she was very patient with our our anxious boy, and he really came around to her in just a few days. Brooke was very communicative, both before and during the stay. She took the time to come to our home and meet our dogs in advance of the visit and learn about their preferences, and kept us updated during her stay to let us know how it was going and give up photos of our babies. We came home to a pristinely clean home and two happy dogs! We will definitely be calling on Brooke again in the future to take care of our boys. It is special to find someone who is so calm around nervous dogs, we knew our sensitive boy was in good hands!
Aaron recently provided in-house dog sitting on short notice to cover me for a 5 day trip. He was very professional, amicable, and flexible, and made the process a breeze. Aaron provided detailed updates with multiple photos throughout the day and communicated with little to no delay. I could see from the Furbo footage that my dog shadow was always ecstatic to see him, and appeared from the photos to be having a great time! He followed all instructions to the letter and was very respectful of my home (and left it cleaner than when he arrived). 10/10 will definitely book his services again!!!
Shanna took care of our English lab, Hank, while we were out of the country for 10 days. We felt great knowing he was in good hands, and he seemed his normal, happy self when we returned home. Shanna sent pics and videos regularly and was an awesome communicator. She also took great care of our apartment. There’s a reason for all of these 5 star reviews!!! Thank you, Shanna!!!
Zulma house sat and cared for my dog for a full week. Her calm and grounded presence were just right for my dog. She was responsive, reliable, and an excellent communicator from beginning to end. I will definitely reach out to her again and highly recommend her for house-sitting and any kind of pet care.
Nicole was the perfect sitter for my anxious dog. She took him out for long walks, kept him comfortable when he was anxious and played games with him to distract him from his separation anxiety. She was punctual, responsive, friendly and sent photos. I highly recommend her.
Jessica is wonderful! I can’t say enough good things about her. First of all my very shy 2 kittens warmed up to her immediately which told me a lot! Additionally I could tell by the photos and videos that she sent, the kitten behavior, her communication, and the tidy home I came back too that she took care of both the kittens and my home as if they were her’s. Malamalama, Sunny and I look forward to having Jessica back anytime. She was helpful, communicative, kind, caring…everything we hoped for in a sitter. 🐾❤️ - Malamalama, Sunny and June
Moana hadn't seen Sarah in a while and experienced some new triggers, but Sarah handled it all masterfully and reached out for support from us when she needed it. Really appreciate how thorough and attentive she is to our special needs baby, Moana. Thank you, Sarah!
Aoife was amazing with our dog Freckles. We felt at ease leaving him in such capable hands. She followed all our instructions carefully, was super professional and independent, and made the whole experience stress-free. Freckles can be a bit anxious, but he was calm and clearly really liked Aoife. We’d absolutely book with her again!
Joe has watched our dog several times now, and we couldn’t be happier we found him. He’s prompt, communicative, and most importantly, we can tell our dog is comfortable with him. She’s not an easy pup so it makes us feel so good knowing that she is being cared for while we’re away!
