About: What sets me apart is the genuine love and patience I bring to every pet I care for. I’ve been around dogs since I was 7 and now have my own toy poodle, so I understand the attention, patience, and consistency pets need. I’m especially comfortable with puppies, energetic dogs, potty breaks, playtime, and keeping pets company. I’ll always take the time to learn each pet’s personality, routine, and individual needs so they feel happy, safe, and loved! I’m available for pet care Monday through Friday from 6:00 AM–8:30 AM and 5:30 PM–8:00 PM. On weekends, I’m available all day and can be flexible with your pet’s needs and schedule! I treat every pet like family! In my client’s home, I follow their routine closely, including feeding, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and plenty of love and attention. I’m respectful of your home and always make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away.
“Sarah was an incredible cat sitter who really knows cats and took excellent care of both of my girls! She takes the time to make sure the cats are safe and happy, my cats and I would 100% recommend her cat sitting🐱”

“Christian is an excellent Rover! She has watched our cat twice now and he has had a great experience both times. We greatly appreciate the number of pictures and detailed reviews she provides us and highly recommend her to other.”

“Amy did a great job with Charlie! She took Charlie out on nice long walks, and sent detailed reports and pics! We will definitely book her again next time we need someone to check in and walk our dog.”
“We were so grateful to have Jennylyn take care of our cat while we were out of town. She responded to our messages promptly and kept us updated with regular photos and reports. Our cat can be quite sassy, mischievous, and not always friendliest, but Jennylyn was very patient and handled things wonderfully. We felt at easy knowing our cat was in great hands. We'd definitely book with Jennylyn again and recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable pet sitter.”


About: Im a life long pet owner with experience sitting all sorts of animals. Ive taken care of the smallest puppies to giant breed dogs as well as indoor and outdoor cats. I have fostered future service dog puppies, guinea pigs and rabbits too! I know when owners leave the house it can be stressful for the animals, thats why I stay at the owners house so the animals have the least amount of change possible. I love animals and am so excited to work with your pets! I am a college student who takes most of my classes online. This makes my schedule pretty flexible and only requires me to go to school two days a week. This allows me to be with your pets for the remainder of the time and give them all the love and care they need! I am available all major holidays but book up fast! I'll take care of your pets in your home. I know that leaving home can be stressful for both you and your pet that why I aim to keep your pets schedule the same as much as I possibly can.

About: I’ve always enjoyed being around animals and understand how important it is to have someone you can trust with your pets. I’m responsible, patient, and attentive to each pet’s individual needs. I’m happy to help with feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and keeping pets comfortable while their owners are away. I’ll follow any instructions you provide and make sure your pets receive plenty of attention and care. I’m a college student with a flexible schedule throughout most of the week, which gives me plenty of time for pet care, house sitting, walks, feeding, playtime, and potty breaks. On Tuesdays and Thursdays, I have classes from around 12:00 PM to 8:30 PM, so my availability is more limited during those hours. I’m available before and after class and will always communicate my schedule before accepting a booking to make sure I can meet your pet’s needs. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I will always respect their home and follow the instructions they provide.

About: Hi, my name is Sereina! I've grown up around dogs and have always been someone reliable and trustworthy around others pets as well. I know how to handle and care for dogs and cats of all different sizes, ages, and breeds. I would love to keep growing my experience and getting to know families and their pet family members as well! Currently I am working a part time job and visit my family in San Diego frequently. I am in school during the fall as a full time student but have extra time right now in the summer. Caring for your pet is another way for me to fill up the time throughout the week and meet new pets! As your pet sitter, I can be very by the book. If you have any special requests or know how to counteract any known behaviors from your pet I am capable of following your standards and following what is most comfortable and right for your pet. I will treat your pet with the same love and respect you have for them (and then some!). I am patient and will do everything I can to hold yours and your pets trust.
About: I have spent over 20 years caring for humans and I am expanding my caregiving to pets! I have experience with puppies, dogs, and cats. I work mostly remote so I have flexibility in my schedule to drop in to visit, walk, and play with your pets! I am used to caring for my own dog and do daily walks and games. I am used to dropping into neighbors homes to help with dogs and cats. I am able to feed, walk, play, and do some enrichment activities.
About: Hi there! I've been working with pets for 9 years and counting. I specialize in big/small dogs, cats, and small mammals. Additionally, I have 4 years of experience caring for reptiles and aquatic animals. If you have a 'weird' animal or an animal that is not listed for care on Rover, contact me! I'll be more than happy to care for your critter with proper written instructions :) I'm currently a college student with morning and evening classes. My daily schedule is open for early to late afternoon and nightly visits. Upon contact a descriptive schedule will be provided for the length of pet care to ensure the best outcome for your fuzzy friend. I can ensure safety and trust between me and your fuzzy friend by respecting their boundaries and following their schedules. Additionally, I carry experience with pet CPR, hold an emergency crate in my car, and will adapt to any needs your pet describes.
About: With 10 years of dedicated pet care experience, I specialize in the extra attention required for puppies and senior dogs. I am highly experienced in managing puppy energy, maintaining potty training schedules, and reinforcing basic commands. For senior pets, I offer a calm environment and gentle companionship. Whether your pet needs a high-energy game of fetch or a quiet cuddle on the couch, I adapt my care to fit their unique personality and routine perfectly. I’m currently working in a school setting. I will be available after school hours. I will have more availability during school breaks. That would be holidays, spring, and summer. I have full availability on the weekend. I would love taking them on walks. Depending on their energy or needs, it can be long or short. If there’s a park nearby I’d love to play fetch or run around with them. I always have treats on hand to reinforce basic commands.
About: What sets me apart is that caring for animals has been a lifelong passion, not simply a job. I’ve been working with and volunteering with animals since 2010, but my love for animals began long before that. Throughout college, I studied Animal Science, started my own rescue, and gained hands-on experience caring for animals ranging from dogs and cats to reptiles, birds, amphibians, and arachnids. One of the experiences that shaped me most was adopting my late Miniature Pinscher. He had been returned by multiple adopters because he was considered “complicated” and was scheduled to be euthanized that same week. I brought him home and soon realized that his behavior was rooted in a history of abuse and fear. It took nearly two years of patience, consistency, and unconditional love to help him learn to trust people again. Watching my best friend slowly become comfortable, confident, and trusting was one of the greatest accomplishments of my life. That experience taught me something I carry into every animal I care for: sometimes, what looks like “bad behavior” is simply an animal communicating fear, anxiety, or a past experience they don't know how to overcome. I understand that every animal is different. Whether your pet is energetic, anxious, elderly, shy, reactive, or simply needs a little extra patience, I take the time to understand their individual personality and needs. I don’t simply watch pets, I build trust with them, advocate for them, and treat them like they’re my own. 🐾 I’m currently going back to school to pursue my Master’s Degree, and pet sitting is the perfect way for me to make the most of my free time. Rather than simply filling my schedule, I get to spend that time doing something I genuinely love, which is caring for and spending time with fur babies! My school schedule also gives me the flexibility to dedicate quality time and attention to your pets. Whether they need companionship, playtime, walks, or simply someone to keep them company while you’re away, I’m excited to make pet care a meaningful part of my routine. I treat every pet in my care as if they were my own, with patience, compassion, and plenty of love. I’m not an accredited dog trainer, but I have years of hands-on experience and working with my own dogs and cats. I use patience, consistency, positive reinforcement, and clear boundaries to help pets feel comfortable and understood. When caring for pets in my home, I want them to feel like they are truly at home. I do my best to maintain their normal routines, provide plenty of attention and companionship, and make sure they feel safe and comfortable. When caring for pets in your home, I will treat with the same respect I would give my own. I keep their environment clean and orderly, follow your instructions carefully, and maintain their usual feeding, medication, exercise, and daily routines whenever possible. I also understand that caring for your pet means caring for their home, too. I want you and your pet to feel comfortable and confident while you’re away. Your home is your pet’s safe place, and I will treat both your home and your fur baby with the care, respect, and love they deserve.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Los Altos
This was our first time trying out Rover for our three kitties and we had the best experience with Leigh-Ann! She went above and beyond, providing updates before arriving and constant updates during her visit. I was really nervous using Rover since my babies are very skittish and have a challenging time coming around to people and very much appreciated the updates. Leigh-Ann was very sweet and patient with them and they came around within the first two visits! She even took the time to play with them and feed them snacks. I usually am nervous about leaving them and this was the first time I felt comfortable being away from them. I can’t recommend Leigh-Ann enough and look forward to booking her for future visits!

Jennifer has visited and looked after our 'furry baby' 15 times since we retired in 2023. She is so kind, conscientious, thorough, caring, and loving. Always ready to go above and beyond while looking out for his safety, happiness, and well-being. Consistently and repeatedly exercising exceptional judgment on those occasions that've called for it, as well as each time she's been unable to reach us or our alternate contacts. To the point that we no longer book any trip without first asking Jennifer for her availability.

Kaley has been amazing from first contact all the way through. Cha cha was super comfortable with her right away. She is prompt with communication and visits, follows everything to the letter and more, and takes the most amazing sets of photos. I could tell Cha Cha was relaxed and not stressed at all when we got home. She very obviously understands the nuances of how cats communicate comfort and needs. I most certainly will book her again.

We had a wonderful experience with Zeni! She was punctual, friendly, and communicated with us throughout her time dropping in for our two cats. It was clear right away that she loves animals, and we could tell our cats loved her too from the pictures she took every visit. We would happily use Zeni’s services again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable pet sitter. Thank you again!!
Shelli is wonderful! Our pups have a new best friend and love having her come by and spend time with them. Shelli is super communicative, sends pictures throughout the day and takes amazing care of our pups. She came and did a meet-and-greet before her stay to make sure she had all of the info necessary - she's thorough and made me feel super safe and confident having her come and take care of them. Will for sure be using Shelli again and again! :)

Miranda, came to watch my two kitties, Ollie & Finn. She spent a lot of time interacting with them, ensuring they were well fed and watered, and cuddling with them. It was amazing to have someone reliable to check in and spend time in one's space. Miranda was also very communicative about anything that came up, which was great. Would highly recommend!
