About: As a pet caregiver for over a decade, you can be sure that your best friend is in safe care. I grew up with dogs and started providing pet care professionally in 2015. In addition to taking care of only-child canines, I offer services to multi-dog and multi-species households. I have experience caring for cats, rabbits, birds, and reptiles. What you can expect from me as a sitter: - Loving companionship for your animal and clear communication with you. - Daily photo/video updates! - Meals, walks, play, and medications administered according to your dog’s regular schedule. My goal is to make sure your dog feels completely comfortable and cared for while their family is away. Our canine companions are such important parts of our lives, so it is vital that your sitter/walker is as passionate about the health and happiness of your best friend as you are. Can't wait to meet you and your dog, and forge a relationship centered around the wellbeing of your beloved companion! I am self employed as an artist, so my schedule is flexible and can be adjusted to accommodate your animal’s needs. I am available for overnight sitting and daytime check-ins and walks any day of the week with a few days advanced notice. I care for clients’ dogs in their homes according to my clients’ instructions, which we’ll go over during our meet and greet. I’d love to know ahead of time if your dog has any special talents like escape artistry, opening trash cans, or jumping onto the kitchen counter and scarfing down an entire loaf of bread in under 10 seconds (real story). Please also share if there are off-limits areas for your dog, either inside or outside your home.

About: I've grown up owning dogs my whole life, and I own my own dog as well. I honestly think it's impossible to be sad when a dog is in your life, and it is our responsibility to take care of them as best as we can. I would love to spend time and take care of your dog in the event you cannot. They should't have to feel so alone when we are busy! My puppy is very social, kind, and loves to play with other dogs. She is spayed so there is no worry there. I promise to take the best care of your dog, as if it was my own. I am also a strong believer in training dogs and keeping them on their own routine. I am very respectful of the rules or standards that each owner has for their dog, and plan on carrying those out exactly as you ask. I have a very flexible schedule currently and can accommodate many different times. Feel free to reach out and we can find a common time that works for you, your pet and me! Safety and trust are the most important aspect of caring for other animals. They are not just our pets but members of our family and I always keep that in mind. I will send photos and always be transparent about how your dog is doing.

About: Hi! I'm a lifelong animal lover who's been caring for my own dog—as well as family and friends' pets—for the past 5+ years. Whether it's going on long walks, bath time, puzzle games, or playtime together at home, I truly enjoy giving every animal the attention and care they deserve. I’ve looked after cats and dogs of all ages, from energetic youngsters to sweet seniors, and I love tailoring each day to their needs and personalities. Rest assured that your furry friend will be treated like family with me! I currently work part-time as a yoga instructor here in Oakland, which means I have a flexible schedule with lots of availability—especially during weekday 9–5 hours and weekends. Whether your furry one wants a peaceful walk, a playful adventure, or just some cozy company at home, I have the time and energy to make it happen. I take safety and trust very seriously, whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in yours. I always follow the specific routines and guidelines each pet parent provides—whether that means administering medication on time, using the proper harness for walks, crating them when I step out, or sticking to house rules. Every pet is unique, and I’m committed to making sure they feel secure and cared for while giving you total peace of mind. Your pet’s safety—and your trust—are my top priorities.

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover with years of hands on experience, and currently have four amazing dogs. Caring for pups has always been second nature to me, and I treat every dog I meet like family. I have personal experience with anxious dogs who need extra love, patience, and reassurance. I understand how important it is to create a calm, gentle environment and to move at their pace. I’ve also been lucky to care for a senior dog who’s now 16 years old, so I’m very familiar with the special attention older pets need like mobility support. I provide a safe, peaceful, and loving presence so you can feel confident knowing your pet is in good hands. I currently work part-time as a nanny, which gives me the flexibility and availability to spend my extra time to care for and walk dogs! Whether it’s a quick walk, drop-in visit, or house sitting, I’m happy to provide consistent, loving care when you can’t be there. I believe pets feel most relaxed in familiar surroundings, so I’m happy to come to you and keep your pet’s routine as normal and comforting as possible.

About: I love little dogs! I enjoy connecting with them and getting to know their quirky little personalities. I grew up with a toy poodle and helped with my neighbors' dogs for years - walking them, hanging out with them during the day, and even keeping them for a night or a week. For the past 4 years I've also had a sweet mini aussiedoodle, Murphy. If you're a first time Rover user, get $20 off your booking with me! Use this code: PARKERD42569 I work part-time and mostly from home, and have a lot of flexibility right now. I can do one-time gigs and would love to build ongoing relationships! - BOARDING includes roughly 24 hours of doggy care and I am flexible about start and end time. If you need longer than 24 hours, an extended care fee will apply. If you need less, ask me about negotiating price. - DAY CARE can be 8-5, or 4-10, or any stretch between 8am and 11pm. - DROP INs and WALKS can be anytime between 9am and 9pm. Please let me know if your dog has separation anxiety or can be left alone briefly if I needed to run out (for example, the laundry is on the ground floor of my building). I give doggos a lot of personalized attention and try to anticipate their needs. I'm good at reading the vibe and knowing if a dog needs more or less of something. I am very safety conscious and will follow whatever guidance you offer, and communicate with you as much as you like!

About: I come from a large family of dog owners. All kinds, behaviors, and sizes though I prefer smaller breeds. I grew up with two miniature poodles. And I recently lost my Yorkie to old age. 16 long years. So, I've gained a lot of experience taking care of a senior dog. I'm eager to get another pup, but I'm not ready just yet. So, for now, I thought I could share my love with yours. So... Let me love your dog! I do work a 9 to 5 job during the week. But I'm usually home on the weekends so I can definitely take care of your dog then. I'm an avid walker in general so it would be nice to have some canine company. I have all the necessities that a small dog would need. Bed, blankets, dishes, leashes, harness, (small) crate, satchel, poop bags etc. Dogs are allowed on the couch and bed here unless you say otherwise. And there are plenty of grassy areas within steps of our apartment. I give dogs a lot of attention. They'd never be alone while they're with me.

Ariana is friend to all living creatures and her loving spirit and warm nature is a calming presence to any animal that crosses her path, especially dogs. Her roommate's dog always goes straight to Ariana whenever his dog comes to visit and she never hesitates to watch the dog when needed. Ariana is incredibly professional, accommodating, and will give your dog the attention it needs. I would recommend her anyone who need a dog sitter.

Hannah has been watching and walking my golden retriever, Ellie, for about 5 years now. Anytime she comes over, Ellie squeals with joy and excitement. Hannah is experienced with reactive dogs and, in my case, stubborn dogs! Even when Ellie would prefer to sit and lounge instead of walk, she is able to get her moving using positive reinforcement. I’d highly recommend and trust her with my dog anytime!

When we think of Pablo, the words caring, thoughtful and kind come to mind. We've witnessed Pablo's canine parental nature and have entrusted our own furry friend to Pablo's care. We would recommend Pablo to anyone looking to leave their pet in the best of hands. Your pet is sure to love him too!

Lauren was a perfect companion for my cat, Delilah. I was away for a week and loved the updates I received from Lauren. They really gave me peace of mind. I found her to be super trustworthy. But the best part of course was that I arrived home to a happy cat (though she missed me of course). Definitely will book with Lauren again!

Laura was amazing with our two kitties! One of our cats is a bit more shy/ sensitive and she seemed to warm right up with Laura. Thanks for keeping us in the loop with great pics and thorough updates, would recommend Laura to anyone!

Sam is my GO TO when I need pet care! She communicated and sent photos throughout our vacation, and even took our cat for a walk! She has great animal energy, and the fact that my cat went for a walk with her, says it all! She went above and beyond - and we are so happy with her care , communication and commitment to our pets ! We will most definable book her again ;)

Jen is a very sweet sitter. She took great care of my two cats and left plenty of photos and notes in the app for us after her drop-ins. I would definitely hire her again!

Artemis was fantastic with my cat and all her little quirks as always! Theda is always happy to see Artemis and I am always happy to get home to a happy cat and tidy eating and litter box areas!

You won't go wrong with Diana as your petsitter. She was in great communication whenever she or I needed to check in, and she was consistent about posting pictures and comments when she was at the drop-in visits. It seems like a small thing, but it's such a comfort to SEE Simba, my 18-year-old orange tabby, when I'm away. Also, I give special kudos and thanks to Diana for dealing with an unwelcome ant visit during the sit, too! She handled it all fantastically, and I heartily recommend her for your petsitting needs, too.

Zsa-Zsa’s updates were thorough and helpful while I was away from home! It was nice to see the pictures while traveling and it was helpful to know that my kitties were in good hands!

Jiayi was great with our cat, Truffle. She left a detailed write up of the visit and spent a lot of time playing with our cat while we were away. She is very natural with animals and we would definitely recommend booking her!

Mar is an excellent communicator and my dogs love them! They were very easy to coordinate with, responded promptly to my messages, and sent detailed updates during their visits. They even stayed a little longer than planned to comfort my dogs when they got scared by a neighbor’s fireworks! Will definitely be booking with them again and cannot recommend them highly enough.

My boys loved Cameron! He was great at communicating and sent lovely pics of them during each drop in. This was my first Rover experience and I’m so glad it was with Cam, I’m so excited to book him again!
