“Tracy and her husband were gentle and caring with Princess, ensuring that she felt welcome, safe, and comfortable in their home. They provided regular updates on meals and potty breaks, including pictures and the occasional silly video. Thank you for opening up your home, I will use you in the future”

“Micheal clearly really likes dogs! He took good care of Nimbus over the holidays. It was easy to arrange drop off and pick up times and Michael helped Nimbus get settled in right away. He provided photos and videos during the stay. I would book with Michael again.”

“We had a last minute trip and Crystal was a lifesaver. She was incredibly flexible and responsive. She did a meet and greet with our dog the day I reached out to her and she and our dog were instant friends. She was also able to accommodate our last minute flight changes. Our dog enjoyed his stay. We recommend Crystal highly!”

About: With two years of experience caring for my own Shiba Inu and a history of dog-sitting for friends, I am confident in my ability to provide excellent pet care. I have hands-on experience with tasks like giving medicine, bathing, and brushing (for those dogs who are not against it) I'm available to care for your fur baby during the day on weekdays. My schedule is flexible and can accommodate daytime needs. I also take last minute booking. I have a private, fenced patio in my apartment that's a great space for your pet to enjoy some fresh air safely. During our walks, I'll send you updates with a detailed summary, so you'll know exactly how your furry friend is doing and what we did.
“Svetlana was great! Our dog was loved and cared for, and I would not hesitate to leave her again in such good hands. I appreciated the daily updates and pictures of walks, play, and lounging at home. Svetlana was super responsive to all of my questions and was such a nice person to interact with. The overall experience was fantastic.”

“Meerim and her partner were absolutely amazing dog sitters for my family’s 9 year old dog! She handled our dog’s reactive tendencies around other dogs like a pro and was incredibly prompt in responding and sending pics throughout the stay. Our dog was very happy and comfortable with Meerim due to her attentive, gentle, and loving nature - I would readily recommend Meerim to anyone looking for the best pet care around and we will definitely happily rebook!”

“Joy was both skillful and easygoing when we left our dog Lila with her and her family. I got photos of Lila snuggling on the sofa, and Joy had a great outdoor space for her dogs and mine to play.”

“Second time with Jessica and she’s been fantastic. Quick to respond, sends updates and pictures. Most importantly my little dachshund loves to go back, great experience across the board. Highly recommend!”

About: I’ve taken care of pets for two years, it’s been a fun experience. I get to meet new pets and make them feel like home. I’m currently working from home, that gives me enough time for your pups and cats. I’m available for morning walks on weekdays 9am I live in a area where pups like to run, my home is a safe place as well where they are taken care of as if they are mine
About: I’ve taken care of my own pets and other animals since I was a child. I was brought up loving animals and everyone in the family has pets. I brought home my first dog from my aunt’s house when I was 9, and he became my best friend and lived to 12 years old. I’m a proud auntie to my sister’s Shiba Inu and have helped raise her since she was a puppy. I hope to meet your best friend soon. I’m home all days of the week so your pet will never be without care and attention except when I step out for a brief errand. I live in a spacious apartment in a safe neighborhood with walkable streets. When caring for pets in my home, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved with plenty of cuddles, playtime, and walks throughout the day.

“Matthew and Katelyn were wonderful hosts for Desta. Their quick responses and clear communication made me feel confident that Desta was well cared for. I’d definitely book with them again.”

“Karen and Willie are amazing pet sitters! From the moment our dog Teddy walked into their home and throughout the entire sitting period, his experience with them was beyond exceptional! Also, Teddy and their dog Cookie both immediately became best friends and she was a great support for our first time pup! Highly recommended 😊”

“Rachel was amazing and provided excellent and loving care for our dog. He clearly enjoyed being in her care, and Rachel shared many pictures of him at her home. We highly recommend her.”

“Jesse and Kimmy were so wonderful with you 3 year old Labradoodle. Peet felt right at home and really settled in nicely. We received many updates and pics throughout the way. Will be rebooking again soon!! Thank you for loving our sweet pup while we were away!”

“Kathryn and Denis are top notch dog people. They and their family provided a cozy and welcoming home for our high energy pup. Our dog does not always settle in quickly but did so quickly with this beautiful family. She, the dog, even appeared to mind her manners. Thank you K & D.”


About: Our family has loved dogs for years, and we're excited to share our home with yours! Our kids have spent the past year as trusted dog walkers for several neighbors on our street, building a reputation for being dependable, attentive, and great with dogs of all sizes and energy levels. Our home sits on a quiet, tree-lined street in Palo Alto with a large fully fenced backyard and a spacious front yard, perfect for safe off-leash play, fetch, and lounging in the sun. With two active, dog-loving kids in the house, your pet will never be short on attention, belly rubs, or walks around our beautiful neighborhood. Whether your dog needs gentle company, lots of playtime, or a few long strolls a day, we'll treat them like one of our own. We offer weekend boarding from Friday through Monday, when our family's schedule is fully flexible and dog-focused. Your dog will get multiple walks around our leafy Palo Alto neighborhood, plenty of backyard playtime, and lots of company throughout the day. With two dog-loving kids at home, your dog won't be left alone for long stretches. They'll feel like part of the family from the moment they arrive. In our home, dogs get full access to our fenced backyard, multiple daily walks around our Palo Alto neighborhood, and lots of family company between adventures. We follow your dog's feeding schedule and routine closely, and send photo updates throughout the stay so you always know how your dog is doing.
“Alexis and Julie were amazing! It was one of our first times using rover and they were so accommodating and sent us lots of happy pics of our dog. Our dog can be anxious but seemed very comfortable with them by the end of the stay!”

Los Altos Hills dog parents share their Rover experiences
Ahmyah took care of my 8- year Golden Retriever (Basin) while I was attending meetings at Stanford for a few days. Its clear she really loves dogs. She sent me cute videos of Basin on campus having a great time! I would love for Basin to stay with Ahmyah again when we are back at Stanford.

Svetlana was a great caretaker for ZuZu. They have a nice grass yard that’s enclosed. She walks ZuZu regularly and played with her. Her daily updates are personal and detailed. I always look forward to read her updates. She is obvious experienced at taking care of dogs and she has a warm heart. I will not hesitate to send zuzu back next time around. She is simply great!

Cynthia was fantastic! She took such great care of my dogs and kept me updated throughout their stay with photos, which I really appreciated. My flight ended up being delayed, and I was running late, but she was incredibly accommodating and understanding, which made a stressful situation much easier. It was clear she showed my pets a lot of love and attention while they were with her. I’d absolutely trust her again and will definitely be booking with her for my future dog care needs.

I highly recommend Daniela as a dog sitter. She watched my dog, Poppy, it was the first time I left my puppy and I was very nervous. We had a great a experience! It was so clear from the start that she truly loves animals; she didn't just stick to a schedule but really took the time to get to know Poppy’s personality and quirks. I felt so much better being away because Daniela kept me updated with constant messages and the cutest photos of Poppy playing and happy. Daniela was professional, reliable, and incredibly kind. When I finally picked Poppy up, she was happy and well-cared for, which is the best peace of mind a pet owner can have. I’d trust Daniela with Poppy again in a heartbeat!

Jessica is truly amazing and left me fully at ease leaving Howie in her care. She is a sweet, kind and caring person and genuinely cared for my dog beyond expectation! I could tell Howie felt comfortable with her from the get go, and could tell even more that he was getting attached by the end of my trip. Howie would love to see Jessica again in the future ❤️
