About: I've cared for dogs for years and would love to ensure your pup gets all the love and exercise they need to be happy and healthy! I'm also very active myself so I can also take your pup on a fast-paced walk or run to get their energy out! Very flexible schedule with lots of availability during weekdays or weekends ! Open to repeat visits as needed. I work part-time / at home providing me an versatile schedule for whatever timing works for you and your pup. During drop-in visits and dog-walks, I emphasize gentleness, attentiveness, and building trust with your animal to ensure their needs are tended to with playfulness and adaptability to your pet's unique temperament.
About: Over the course of my life, I have gained extensive experience in animal care. My expertise encompasses a diverse array of species, including, but not limited to, kittens, puppies, adult mammals, and reptiles. As I do not have children and stay at home, I have flexibility throughout the day. I am available from approximately 10:00 AM after my morning routine until around 11:00 PM. Although my yard is fully enclosed, it does feature a pool. My house is in close proximity to a dog park, which offers abundant opportunities for outdoor engagement with your canine companion. I am fully prepared to comply with all guidelines you establish for your residence, as I recognize the significance of clearly defined parameters.
About: I grew up on a farm in Australia and I’m a lifelong dog lover with a rescue dog of my own. I have shelter volunteer experience in which I’ve been trained to handle a variety of dog breeds and temperaments. It would be my pleasure to take care of your dog as I would my own! I love to run also so feel free to request some extra speed on the walks for high energy pups! I work remotely as a software engineer with a flexible schedule. I’m usually busy with meetings early morning but after that I’m all yours! Weekends can be less predictable but happy to work in times with some notice. I’m a shelter volunteer so have been trained in how to create safe environments and identify risk factors. I will always put the dogs well being first and take on board all requests and advice from the owners.
About: Hi, I'm Nick, a Kentfield local who's home for the next few months and looking to spend them outside with dogs. My dog's name is Holly (short for Hollywood - we've named all of our dogs after Top Gun characters ((don't ask)) and I look forward to hiking and walking her every day! Whether your dog is a high-energy pup who needs to burn off steam or a mellow senior who prefers a slow sniff around the block, I'll tailor each walk to their pace and personality. I'll keep to your dog's routine, follow your instructions, and send you an update after every walk so you know how it went. For five years I worked at a camp as a counselor and lifeguard, which means I'm used to staying attentive, responsible, and calm while looking after others. When I'm not walking dogs, you can usually find me playing guitar or getting out on the trails around Marin! I'm currently looking for full time positions in New York City, but am back home until I find something. That also means I'm more than happy to hang around at all hours of the day! I keep dogs securely leashed and stay alert on every walk. For overnights, I follow your dog's routine, keep your home secure and tidy, and send regular updates. My camp counselor and lifeguard background keeps me calm and responsible.
About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life, and caring for them comes naturally to me. I have years of hands-on experience as a lifelong dog owner, and dogs seem to connect with my calm, positive energy. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or simply providing companionship, I’ll make sure your dog feels safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away Im currently looking for as many opportunities as possible as my schedule has opened up. Currently im taking same day booking but I am open to consistent weekly work. I first ask what is expected of me , and going from there. In the past I’ve taken care of dogs in kennels, fenced off, indoor, and anyway the owner sees fit ensuring the safety of the pet ❤️
“Devon was so friendly and communicative, we would love to utilize her again. Our pets loved her and she helped our shy dog come out of his shell while we were away. We are so pleased!”
“If you have any doubts about leaving your furry friend in the care of a home sitter, Marisa will put your anxieties to rest. She took great care of my good buddy Gus the Cat, hanging out with him, giving him treats, and sending daily images of the little guy. I simply could not be more pleased, or grateful.”
“Pat was an incredible help for my family! Pat helped with drop in visits to take care of my cat while my husband and I were in the hospital to give birth to our baby! Pat was flexible and understanding of the schedule changes, and most importantly she gave us a peace of mind — her updates and pictures of my cat Risa showed clearly that even though we had to leave her for almost a week, she was doing great and I didn’t need to stress! All of that in an extremely bad heatwave — Pat made sure to turn on fans and bring Risa to a room with AC on. Pat also made sure to text both my husband and me on Rover, so we both could get the updates. She checked in on us too, which we appreciated! In the few days that Pat helped us we felt like we had a trustworthy and caring friend and that something that is so rare to find! Thank you, Pat!”
About: I have had cats since I was 2, they are amazing. I give my cat medication everyday. I may not have a dog but I wish I did. I love being with dogs and going on their “sniff walks”. I am currently in college right now as a second year. I have a fair amount of free time. I am free all weekend, when not at home. At my home I have a fully fenced backyard. At your house, I will follow the directions you give me to a tea, to give everyone peace of mind. 🙂
“Charles took great care of our pets while we were gone and needed someone to check on them. He sent detailed updates and pictures and they were very happy with with him 😄, would recommend!”
“Amber did an amazing job caring for my cat Moo. Although he’s very easy he requires medical food and diabetic injections, not easy! But Amber did a great job and Moo was totally relaxed when I returned home. Will definitely be contracting her for future visits.”
“Delfina was amazing and I cannot wait to use her again! She was very communicative during and prior to her visits. She made sure to take great care of our dog, cat and even our hamster while we were away! So grateful I have someone reliable and loving to my animals I can count on while we are away!”
About: I have had dogs my entire life and spent the last year working as a veterinary technician, and worked alongside ranch dogs for two years before that. I am comfortable with dogs (plus cats and ranch animals!) of all ages, sizes, breeds, and temperaments. My veterinary background also makes me comfortable with medications and specialty care. I really enjoy being able to get to know each pet’s unique personality! My schedule is currently pretty flexible, which gives me plenty of time for walks and drop-ins throughout the week. I can accommodate different days and times whenever possible! I am happy to follow your pet’s normal routine and any specific care instructions. My veterinary background has given me experience with pet first aid, medications, and special needs, as well as recognizing changes in behavior or health. I am always excited to meet and spend time with new pets!
About: I am a very responsible dog owner who would love to take care of your pet! My dog (Milo) is a 8 year old Goldendoodle and loves playing with other dogs. I take my dog on daily walks and enjoy playing fetch with him. I work in Tiburon Tuesday through Thursday but have a flexible lunch that I can use for drop in visits. I have 2 separate places in my house that your dog would feel comfortable, either in a carpeted room or hardwood floors. My dog loves going back and forth between these two areas
About: Hi there! My name is Casey and I would be delighted to spend time with your cat or dog, whether that be for a drop in visit or for longer term house sitting. I spent the past year living and working in Europe but have just relocated back to where I grew up, here in the Bay Area. I have always been a big animal lover and look forward to meeting you and your pets! Feel free to reach out if you have any questions, I am happy to chat.
About: I grew up with my Australian Shepherd, who was part of my family my entire life, and I helped care for her throughout her senior years. I now have my own cat, Emerald, and my family recently welcomed a terrier puppy named Edna. I also have experience caring for friends’ cats, as well as a neighbor’s and family friend’s Chihuahua and a family’s Golden Retriever. I’m comfortable caring for both cats and dogs, including pets with different personalities and energy levels. I’m responsible, patient, and attentive, and I take pride in providing the same loving care I would want for my own pets. I’ll be leaving my medical assistant position as I prepare to start PA school next year, so I’ll have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to pet care. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting throughout the week, including weekends. I’m able to spend quality time with pets rather than simply stopping by, and I’m happy to work around their individual routines and needs. I’m excited to use this time before PA school doing something I genuinely love! I’ll treat your pets like my own and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’ll follow their normal routines for feeding, walks, playtime, and any special needs, while also keeping your home clean and secure. I’ll send regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pets are happy and in good hands!
“Madelyn came to our house for drop in visits with our dog, Sydney, while we were out of town. She was extremely professional throughout the whole process. Madelyn did a fantastic job and we were so glad to know that she was checking in on Sydney. We appreciated her sending pictures and communications during each visit. We would definitely recommend her and hope to book with her again!”
About: I have volunteered at Humane Societies with all kinds of pets because animals are my passion, and have had pets for almost 30 years. I currently have had a wonderful cat named Latte for 6 years and I couldn't live without her. I am available during the day to walk your dog or take it to play at a dog park, or check in on your cat and give it plenty of love, food, and attention. I make sure the pets I look after are cared for like my own, and their safety, comfort, and security are a top concern of mine.
The median cost per visit for pet sitting in Kentfield is $30
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Kentfield
Trisha was a great caregiver for my very scaredy cat. She made sure she found him each day even though he hid from her, even getting down on the floor to talk to him while he was under the bed. I appreciated her thoughtful reports each day, letting me know how she attempted to interact with him even though he was being very aloof. I'm sure Trisha's calm manner and soothing voice were a comfort to Siggi, even though he didn't really show it. I know it was a comfort to me to know that she was there for him when I was away. Thank you, Trisha.
Had a great experience. Parker is friendly, on time and always sends photos of the outings with my dog. He came three times a day for three days in a row while I was out of town and I returned to a very happy dog would recommend and will book with Parker again when I need to leave town.
Erin stepped in on a few hours notice and di a wonderful job of keeping my neurotic poodle company and entertained. She was prompt, responsive, resourceful, and such a pleasant young woman to work with! I'd ask her to dog sit again in a heartbeat!. Dr. Wendy Everett
Sophie was was warm and professional and related to my standard poodle in an easy manner. She's a terrific cmmunicator, giving me thoughtful and timely updates. She clearly loves dogs and has a special way with my rather diffident dog. I was extremely impressed with her and would work with Sophie again!

If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit .

This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
