About: Hi, I’m Sam! I’ve had animals in my life for as long as I can remember—dogs, cats, fish, reptiles, birds, and even horses. Growing up in a home where animals were part of everyday life (my dad worked in horse racing!), caring for pets has always come naturally. Though I’m new to professional dog walking, I’ve been a dedicated dog dad for over 20 years, always having two dogs by my side. I walk my own pups every day and make all of their food from scratch—yes, they’re very loved (and very spoiled!). I’ve also regularly pet sat for friends and family and am confident with dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I used to have a Great Dane/St. Bernard mix, so handling large or giant breeds is second nature to me. Whether you’ve got a gentle giant or a feisty little pup, I’ll treat them like one of my own—with love, patience, and lots of behind-the-ear scritchins! Let me help your dog get the exercise, attention, and care they deserve. I’m reliable, easy to communicate with, and always happy to customize walks to your dog’s needs and energy level. Looking forward to meeting you and your furry friend! My schedule varies a bit from day to day, but it’s consistent from week to week. I work some mornings and some evenings, but those shifts rarely change, so when you and your pup love me, it will be easy enough to work out a schedule that works for everyone! I am always off on Fridays and Sundays. I do not offer boarding in my own home, but I am always happy drop in to your place for play or potty breaks. Also, as my pups are cared for when I’m not around, I am also available to stay at your home for short trips!
About: I’ve spent the last 10 years caring for pets through friends, family, referrals, and repeat clients. Along the way, I’ve raised my own dogs, cared for puppies and seniors, administered medications including pills and eye drops, managed special diets, and looked after dogs of all sizes and personalities. I believe every pet is unique and deserves individualized care, so I take the time to learn their routine, personality, and what helps them feel safe and happy. One of my favorite parts of pet sitting is getting to know each animal’s personality. Whether they’re goofy, shy, energetic, or happiest curled up next to someone they trust, I genuinely enjoy earning that trust and making them feel at home. My career as an executive assistant has taught me that trust is earned through reliability, thoughtful communication, and attention to detail. Those are the same qualities I bring to every pet and every home I care for by carefully following your instructions, keeping you updated with photos and videos, and treating your home and your pet with genuine care and respect. I’ve also been told my updates feel like little pet photoshoots, and I love capturing each pet’s unique personality along the way. My hope is that every update brings a smile to your face and gives you complete confidence that your pet is happy, safe, and in good hands. My schedule currently allows for morning and evening visits during the week, as well as weekend availability for overnight house sitting and boarding. Rather than booking as many clients as possible, I prefer to keep my schedule manageable so I can provide every pet with the thoughtful, individualized care they deserve. I’ll always be transparent about my availability, so you can book with confidence knowing your pet will receive my full attention. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my highest priorities. I’ll carefully follow your care instructions, maintain their routine as closely as possible, and treat both your home and your pet with genuine care and respect. I currently live in a quiet, pet-free apartment, which provides a calm environment for weekend boarding. Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or mine, you can expect clear, proactive communication, regular photo and video updates, and the peace of mind that comes from knowing they’re in caring, attentive hands.
“Marie-Charlotte is the most caring, conscientious and thoughtful catsitter imaginable. She helped us so much and we felt our house and our cat were in the safest hands. We will always ask her to come back and care for our kitty!”
“Ariela was brilliant, she looked after our 6 year old bulldog for 10 days. Our dog gets stressed out when boarded which leads to the dreaded bulldog skin issues every-time we go away. This was our first time booking drop in visits with Rover and it was great. Joey was looking better than ever when we returned all down to Ariela’s care. She followed his skin and eye routine and administered his medication daily. I always enjoyed getting update of him playing at the local dog park and getting lots of attention at home. I will be booking Ariela again”
About: Dogs have always been a constant in life. From cane corsos to toy fox terriers, I have taken care of all sizes. I am extremely attentive and can read a dog’s body language very well. I have worked in animal care professionally for the last 7 years taking care of fish and inverts. Fun fact, I have training experience working with sea otters. I have lots of availability to care for your pets. I am available morning, day, & evenings - Monday through Friday. With some weekends available. Your dog’s safety is my top priority. I am detailed oriented and highly observant. Allowing me to take the best possible care of your dog. I use positive reinforcement to encourage wanted behavior and LRS (least reinforcing scenario) to discourage undesirable behaviors.
“After a last-minute cancellation, I turned to Rover and found Krystal. She was incredibly accommodating on short notice, taking great care of my three noisy Chihuahuas while I was away. She kept me updated with photos and reassured me that they were doing well. I highly recommend her and will be reaching out to Rover & Krystal in the future.”
About: I’ve worked with many different animals, including cats, dogs, birds, hamsters. I love working and caring for them. Patience is needed to make your furry friends feel comfortable. I’ve worked with many large dog breeds, which include malamutes, German shepherds, pitbulls and even Akita’s. I’m currently work during the day so I am free most evenings Sunday through Thursday. I have more availability on Fridays and Saturdays during the day. I make sure the pets are in safe areas for them so that they don’t get into anything that isn’t safe. I make sure to give them space but follow them just in case. I want them feel comfortable in their space.
About: I grew up with dogs and I’ve been a dog owner most of my adult life. I’ve also been a dog owner from the puppy age of eight weeks all the way through mature life. I can take care of other pets as well, and I can be available for dog boarding, dog sitting, dog walks, and other pet care during your weekends and travels. I am a part-time parent and establishing this as additional income since I am a single income household in Marin county. I am available for dog walking and boarding on alternating weekends, and during periods of your travels when I am in town. I am an outdoors woman, and will get pets outside and active regularly. I know several local dog parks and dog-friendly trails since I’ve been a dog owner myself for years (I no longer have a dog as of early 2025). I have a fenced front and backyard. I can house a pet with all of your personal items for the pet anywhere in my home, and I can provide highly personalized care since I live alone (part time parent with alternating weekends on my own).
“Kathryn is wonderful. We have appreciated her good humor and patience during the long (but very worthwhile) process of our dog Hildy getting to know a new person. We look forward to working with her going forward.”
“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!”
About: Hi! I have always loved animals. I have had dogs my entire life since we adopted my first dog, a black lab, from the humane society when I was 5. I have also volunteered at the humane society for many years on a regular basis. I am home full time right now and my priority is giving the animals I look after the best possible care and of course lots of love! I just want them to be happy and comfortable with me. Reach out with any questions you may have. This is my main job at the moment so I have a very flexible schedule during the week. Therefore, my number one priority is making sure your pet is happy and safe while at home or out on a walk or hike! I have no pets myself right now because I live in a small apartment so I have a lot of time and energy to care for your dogs and cats. I have cared for many of my own pets, and they lived happy, long lives. With me, you have a trustworthy, competent, and caring animal lover.
“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!”
“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.”
“Jackie care for our shy cat, Mick, over the Thanksgiving break. She did an exceptional job. Communication was frequently and clear and service provided went above and beyond! Will 100% work with Jackie again!”
About: Hi, I’m a teacher on summer break who is in N. CA for all of June and July. I’m hoping to earn extra $ over the summer to offset travel expenses and get to spend time in nature while doing it. I love animals and think of this as a win/ win! The photos in my profile are of dogs I’ve cared for over the years (for friends, neighbors, family, and through Trusted Housesitters where I’ve stayed in people’s homes). I look forward to meeting you and your treasured pet. Free and flexible during the day and evening! During the summer months I don’t work. During the school year I’m free between 4pm - 10pm. I can not care for pets in my own home in June or July, as I’ll be traveling and staying with friends. I am available to walk your pets!
“Lydia did a stellar job! She is reliable, on time and a she understands how to take of a cat, which is rare. I can tell she was here and actually paid attention to our cat because of the cat’s behavior when I got home. I would recommend her to another cat owner”
About: For years I have helped raise and train my dogs in my family. I have always had a passion for dogs and animal care. Ever since my mid teens I’ve been called upon by neighbors and friends to take of their dogs for days to weeks. I come from a family where everyone has a dog. I currently live with my parents and their 10 year old Norwich Terrier who has been in my care for the past few weeks as they travel. I consistently do what I can to involve dogs in my life whether away at college or at home. I love to engage with dogs through walks and spending time outside. I believe a dogs place is with people so I do what I can to be in there presence. I love to talk to my dog and keep them company with pets.
About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and can’t imagine life without them. I’ve cared for my own dogs for over 12 years and grew up in a family that always had pups around, so understanding their needs and personalities comes naturally to me. I’ve also completed basic dog training classes and enjoy reinforcing positive behaviors through calm, consistent care. Whether it’s a walk, playtime, or quiet companionship, I genuinely love spending time with dogs and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. You can count on me to treat your dog like my own with reliability, patience, and plenty of affection. I currently work from home and have a very flexible schedule, which makes it easy to fit pet care into my day. I love taking breaks to go on walks, spend time outdoors, and give dogs the attention they need. Whether it’s a midday walk, playtime, or overnight care, I’m able to adjust my routine to make sure each pet feels cared for and comfortable. Safety and trust are always my top priorities. When caring for pets, whether on walks, drop-ins, or during house sitting, I take time to learn each dog’s routine, comfort level, and specific needs. I stay attentive and aware of my surroundings to ensure pets are safe, calm, and relaxed. In clients’ homes, I treat the space with the same respect and care I would my own. I follow instructions closely and maintain your pet’s normal routine. My goal is for your dog to feel comfortable, cared for, and loved while you’re away, and for you to have total peace of mind.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Kentfield
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!
Anne was absolutely wonderful! She took such great care of our cats, and we came home to two very happy, relaxed kitties. She was incredibly sweet, reliable, and communicative throughout our trip, sending plenty of thoughtful updates and photos that gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was such a relief knowing they were in such caring hands. We would happily book Anne again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter!
Emma took great care of our dog while we were out of town. She communicated well, arrived on time and spent quality time with her. She even helped us find a leak in our house that we’d been notified of while we were gone. I would definitely hire Emma again. She’s super reliable and caring.
Amazing! Lydia has taken care of my cat several times and she is the person I go to when I need incredible, thoughtful cat care-- she goes above and beyond and really puts me at ease. Lydia is genuinely invested in caring for my kitty cat and that is priceless.
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!
Chuck was fantastic and went way above and beyond for me when he watched my cat. He was very responsive and kind and patient when I was worried. I can’t recommend him highly enough. There should be more than five stars available for someone as good as he was.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Kentfield stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
