About: I’ve been a pet owner most of my life and have taken care of pets for friends, family, and neighbors. I am the one they always rely on to care for there’s pets and I hope to do the same for you. I’m currently looking for a job, so I will have lots of free time to care for your pets, and with flexible scheduling to what days you might need. Caring for pets at the client’s home I would make sure to ask where they keep the food, treats, toys for the pets, and cleaning supplies just in case if they make an accident by chance.
“Tabitha is WONDERFUL! My dog is very emotionally needy (has anxiety), and I needed a sitter very last minute. Tabitha came to the rescue and was so attentive with Franny and did such a good job with her! I really trust her and i can’t wait to use her again 🙂”

“Kathleen took great care of our senior cat and our home. She navigated some technical challenges with our alarm system with professionalism and good humor. Highly recommend. Will definitely re-book.”

“Kathleen helped out last minute with a dog sitting for our girls and we couldn't be happier to have had her watch them. She was really sweet to them and sent updates while we were out of the house so we felt very at ease.”

“Samantha has cared for our dog (and home) twice now. Again we returned home to a happy pup and clean home. Samantha kept us informed and sent photos, and I wholeheartedly recommend her.”

“Erica was amazing! She took great care of my cat and sent constant updates. She was even kind enough to take out the trash for us and brought packages in! I will definitely be using her again! Highly recommend!”

“Emily is great! She sent continual updates and pictures throughout her time house sitting. It was clear that besides regular walks she also spent lots of time hanging out and cuddling with my dog, who is very affectionate and needs the attention. Would definitely book again!”

About: I have grown up with dogs my whole life and have tons of experience with high energy dogs because of this. I grew up with Australian Shepherds so I know the importance of making sure your furry friend has had enough exercise. Frisbee is my favorite thing to do with my family’s dog and it allows me to get outside and get active too! Additionally, I grew up in a big neighborhood and was trusted with watching my neighbors dogs that ranged from German Shepherds, to Terriers, and even a Lab with diabetes who needed medication in the form of shots. I am also always open to learning, so if you need someone for a very specific routine or dog, I am very happy to talk! I have experience with puppies to seniors. I work from home all day everyday! So I am very available to hangout with your pets during the weekdays :) I frequently have zoom meetings on Mondays at 10am and Wednesdays at 2pm but should usually never be more than an hour. Meeting times are subject to change but should not be an issue in how and when I take care of your pets :) I am here to support you. No one knows these pets like you - and I am here to listen and follow your routines as you have set them. I will provide updates frequently and should any emergencies arise, I will immediately inform you.
“Brittney was fantastic and super responsive! She took great care of our pups while we were on vacation. Not to mention the house looked like she had never even been there!”

“Briana was great! We had a special situation where our two pups just met and so they had to be separated during her visit. And both of them are anxious. Briana handled it perfectly and was so sweet to them. From the minute we met her we knew she’d be excellent with our pups. She is reliable, responsible, communicative and so sweet. She gave us so much peace of mind we were able to enjoy our vacation. We will definitely use her again. Highly Recommend!”

“Brianna is an amazing Catsitter! Not only did my cats really love her but she was amazing at sending updates and being attentive towards them and their needs! Will definitely be booking her again for my future cat sitting needs!”

“SJ was a super sitter for Mazie! They sent frequent updates and pics, many with her sprawled on their lap. I will definitely request SJ's services again!!”

“Our boys were well taken care of & our boys wild child got so many long walks to the school park. House was just as we left it. Can’t appreciate you more for spending time with our needy dogs who love having human company!”

“Naya did a very good job taking care of my senior boy with medical needs like pills and eyedrops. He did have a medical issue and she was prompt about communicating and did all yhe right things interfacing with my vet and keeping me in the loop. As a house sitter, she left the place tidy and it was a great experience!”

“Jamie is wonderful! She’s punctual, communicative, and caring. She spent lots of time with our dogs when we were away from the weekend and took great care of them and the house. She also sent lots of pics, which we loved. We can’t recommend Jamie enough! Looking forward to many future bookings with her.”

“Kevin is timely , responsible and kind. We were out of town with our two Vizslas (one an eight month old) and felt perfectly safe with Kevin caring for them in our hotel room and out walking g in SF. And our dogs loved him.”


“Simply put: Look no further.. choose Amy!! This was our first experience using Rover and I am so glad we found Amy! We were able to have a nice trip with no worries. With pics and updates, I felt at ease during our time away. Even after traveling the entire last day of the trip, we got home to a relaxed boxer and a clean house! It was amazing! Thank you Amy for being wonderful!”

Jamie is a great sitter! She is very calm, warm, and approachable—which is just what we needed for our overly-anxious Frenchie. She cares about our pet’s well-being, followed the routine we shared, and was communicative while we were away. We look forward to hiring her more in the future!

Kathleen stayed in our house and took care of our dog and two cats for almost 10 days! This was our second time with Kathleen. While we were away, I was confident that I'd be advised of any problems (there were none) and that the pets were well cared for. I received pictures and notes which were reassuring and which showed content pets who were very comfortable and happy with Kathleen, which is what it's all about! The cats and dogs hung out with Kathleen all together, all 3 together, which almost never happens! Will definitely use Kathleen again. If there were more than 5 stars, she deserves them all.

Taylor was such an excellent sitter for our three pets, I can’t do justice! Our cat and younger dog are on meds and that was no problem. Our younger dog is active and again no problem - she was exceptionally calm when we returned. Our “easy” older dog developed diarrhea and Taylor dealt with it expertly and as though it was no problem. Everything at home was just as we’d left it, and better than if we had been here!

Paul was a great house sitter! Very respectful and communicative, kept me in the loop of everything going on with my dog while I was away. He made sure that he understood her feeding and walking schedule before I left and took very good care of my pet. I’d definitely rebook with Paul again!!

Erica was wonderful with my three fluffers while I was away on a work trip for a week. She stayed in our home and arrived right on time, communicated often, including videos and pictures, and was very respectful of the house. After a slew of really bad sitters, Erica was a breath of fresh air. We will definitely book with her again. Thank you so much, Eric!

Kevin was excellent! He stayed in our home while caring for our dogs, and we couldn't have asked for a better sitter. He was respectful of our home, left everything clean and in great condition, and took wonderful care of our pups. His communication was excellent throughout our trip, giving us peace of mind while we were away. We came home to two happy dogs and a well-cared-for house. We'd absolutely book Kevin again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable, trustworthy house sitter!

Joey was fantastic! He stopped by before the sit to meet Pixie and Austin, and it was immediately obvious how much he genuinely loves animals. Both of my pets were comfortable with him right away, which gave me a lot of peace of mind before leaving. While I was away, he kept me updated with messages and photos, so I always knew everyone was doing well. When I returned home, my house was just as clean and tidy as I had left it, and both Pixie and Austin were happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. Joey is friendly, outgoing, trustworthy, and was a pleasure to work with. In fact, I was so happy with the experience that I've already booked him again for another pet sit next month. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for someone who will take great care of both their pets and their home!

Naya did a very good job taking care of my senior boy with medical needs like pills and eyedrops. He did have a medical issue and she was prompt about communicating and did all yhe right things interfacing with my vet and keeping me in the loop. As a house sitter, she left the place tidy and it was a great experience!

Emily took great care of our dog Kaia while we were away. She sent frequent updates which put our minds at ease. It was clear when we got home that Kaia had a great time with her. She seemed relaxed and content. We look forward to Emily spending time with Kaia again in the future!
