I don’t really need to explain why Rachel deserves 5 stars, she just does. She was communicative every step of the way and SO patient with my problem puppy (who really just a little anxious). She sent pics and updates every day, came once without pay, and deserves 7/5 stars, let’s be real. She was never ever late, never ever skipped, and made it so easy being thousands of miles away from my babes!

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 have experience caring for my own cat and helping care for family members’ and friends’ cats. I respect individual personalities and recognize when cats want to be quiet and when to play. I am currently a stay-at-home mom, dedicated to my two kids, cat, and dog. I have plenty of time to visit your kitty when you are away from home. My schedule is super flexible. I love being surrounded by pets. My approach to cats is to give them space until they feel safe with me. I clean litter boxes, feed them as instructed by the owner, and play with kittens when they want me to. I do not force cats to play if they do not want to.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs and cats and have been caring for pets of friends and family for many years. For over 2 years in the U.S., I’ve been doing house sitting and dog walking, and I truly value the trust owners place in me when they leave their home and pets in my care. I have experience with a wide range of breeds, from small companion dogs to large, active breeds, as well as mixed breeds. I’m attentive to routines, feeding schedules, walks, and individual personalities. I understand how important it is for pets to feel calm, safe, and comfortable while their owners are away. I’m very mindful of cleanliness, order, and respecting the home as if it were my own. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and building a calm, trusting connection with them❤️ My goal is to build a trusting connection where both pets and owners feel relaxed and confident. I look forward to meeting you and your furry friends! I study remotely with a flexible schedule, so when I pet sit at a client’s home, I get to spend most of my time with my furry companions😌 I play with dogs, I can teach new commands if you want, I walk them with full attention to them, I love to feed them and give all useful needed treats, usually I also brush them and try to give them what they use to have with their owners. We can go to dog park if they like it or vise versa to walk avoiding connection with other dogs if it needs. I can give them their medication in specific time) And of course I love them, I think that it’s very important for dogs as for people. My behavior is different with all dogs, because all of them have their own character and favorite/unloved things and their safety and comfort are on the first place for me.

About: I have owned and cared for dogs and cats for many years. I love taking dogs on walks that are just the right pace and distance for them. I mostly work from home and can adjust my schedule as needed most of the time. Morning and evening walks are ideal during the Summer months as it can get hot for both the dog and me. I make sure the pet has clean water, clean food bowls, food portioned and prepared as directed. I like to sit with the pet or walk the dog and talk to them in an encouraging tone.

About: Hi, I’m Connor! What sets me apart is that I’ve been surrounded by expert-level dog care my entire life. My mom was a vet tech for over 10 years, and for the past 20, she’s been a professional dog walker, boarder, and trainer. Growing up in that environment, I’ve gained hands-on experience with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. Whether it’s walking, boarding, or just giving them lots of love and attention, I genuinely enjoy caring for dogs like they’re part of the family. Pet care is my full-time job, so I’m available 7 days a week for dog walking, drop-ins, and house sitting. I have a completely open and flexible schedule, which means I can follow your pet’s routine exactly — whether that’s early morning walks, midday check-ins, evening feedings, or overnight stays. I’m reliable, responsive, and fully dedicated to keeping your pets safe, happy, and loved while you're away. When caring for pets in their own home, I prioritize safety, comfort, and respect for your space. I follow your instructions closely to keep your pet’s routine consistent and reduce stress. During walks and visits, I make sure all doors and gates are securely closed and never leave your pet unattended outside. I keep open communication with you throughout my visits, providing updates and photos to give you peace of mind. Your pet’s safety and well-being, along with respect for your home, are my top priorities.

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 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 grew up surrounded by all kinds of pets and have owned both cats and a dog as an adult, which was a Dalmatian, describe them as eternally young. :-) I'm an active individual whose current living situation doesn't allow pets so would love to help with yours! Those of you in the Larkspur/Greenbrae area may recognize me from walks on the local paths where I’m able to greet many dogs. While on vacation, I also seek out opportunities to contribute or volunteer for various animal causes, which you’ll see in some of my pictures. I'm retired so my schedule is generally flexible unless I'm out of town for personal reasons. Choosing a more limited radius at this point enables greater schedule flexibility, and to be close to local resources should a need arise. I will pet sit in your home so that your fur baby has all of their normal comforts and routines. I realize not all owners have a fenced yard for a dog so understand the importance of daily walks. I always welcome the opportunity to meet or chat about your needs in advance, so that you may advise of any behaviors for which I'll need to be more mindful. I care for fur babies of at least one year of age. I’m allergic to cigarette smoke so that’s my only restriction. I'm a neat, tidy person who's very responsible--former homeowner.

About: I’ve been caring for animals since I was about six years old and have grown up with dogs my entire life. I currently have two dogs that I care for daily, including feeding, and taking them on walks and runs. I am also in charge of brushing there teeth! I’m very comfortable with regular routines, exercise, and basic grooming. In addition to dogs, I care for six chickens and a turtle at home, so I’m experienced with different types of animals and their needs. I’ve also pet-sat for neighbors, caring for dogs, a bunny, and a guinea pig. I truly love animals and treat every pet as if they were my own. Pet care fits really well into my routine. I’m available most days after school and am very flexible on weekends. I have reliable availability and can adjust my schedule to meet pets’ needs, whether that’s walks, drop-ins, or extended care. I take pet safety very seriously and always follow instructions provided by pet parents. I make sure pets are supervised, comfortable, and secure in their environment. I have two dogs who are very much escape artists so I am very used to rambunctious animals. I’m attentive to routines, feeding guidelines, and exercise needs, and I treat every home and animal with respect and care.

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.
