“Miriam is really awesome!! She came on-time for our greet&meet, and I can already tell that she is experienced when she plays with them for the first time. She took care of the cats really well, fed them, played with them and took lots of cute photos and videos. I would definitely book her the next time when I need a cat sitter!”

About: What sets me apart as a sitter is my attentiveness, reliability, and respect for each pet’s personality and routine. I have experience dog sitting and walking dogs, as well as checking in on and caring for cats. I’m comfortable handling feeding schedules, refreshing water, cleaning litter boxes, and making sure pets get the attention and exercise they need while their owners are away. As a cat owner myself, I understand that many cats can be shy or particular, so I’m patient and allow them to approach interaction at their own pace. With dogs, I focus on safe and engaging walks while making sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I’m very dependable and detail-oriented, and I make it a priority to follow each owner’s instructions closely so their pet’s routine stays as consistent as possible. I also enjoy sending updates and photos so owners can feel confident that their pets are happy and well cared for. I work full-time as an elementary school teacher, so my availability is after school, beginning around 3:30 PM on weekdays and on weekends. I enjoy using that time to care for pets, check in on them, and make sure they are comfortable and happy while their owners are away. I focus on keeping pets comfortable by maintaining their normal routine as much as possible. During visits I handle feeding, water, litter box cleaning, and spend time interacting with the cat in whatever way they prefer—playtime, brushing, or quiet company. I know cats can be particular, so I always respect their boundaries and let them warm up at their own pace.
“Caroline was so wonderful!! She was prompt, responsible, and sent so many photos each day. She was great with my kitty who adored her and even sacrificed some of her own hair ties for her to play with!”

“Sydney was very flexible and take great care of our golden retriever, Stella, while I was out of town for work. She communicated excellently and I would definitely recommend her!”


About: I grew up raising puppies and have spent most of my life around big dogs. I also have experience with larger farm animals. I have 4 years of dog sitting experience since I became a working professional after college and 7 years of dog walking experience on various other apps. I have cared for and helped train puppies and have senior dog experience, including grooming, teeth brushing, nail clipping and more. I am looking to spend as much time outside with pets both for exercise and because I love animals. I am available weekdays and weekends, I work part time so will sometimes be away from the animal for 4 hours at a time. I am quick to learn about clients homes, very neat and always help my clients around the house. I think animals are most comfortable in their own environments so I like to stay with them rather than the other way around. If the pet parent has a yard, I make sure to play with the dog in the yard, otherwise I will take the dog on multiple walks through out the day!
“Artem was amazing!! He took exceptional care of Kylee and Rambo making sure they both got plenty of activity attention and love. His communication and reliability are 10/10 will definitely use again!!!!”
“This is the first time I have used Rover.com to find a pet sitter for our cats. I reached out to Tyler and had a meet and greet with him. Tyler was wonderful with the care of our kitties. I could tell that they were cared for as they seemed calm (not starved for attention) upon our return 7 days later. I loved the daily reports and photos from Tyler. He kept me informed and the pet areas (litter, feeding mats) were clean. It was a pleasure to have Tyler take care of our cats. I would definitely recommend him and will book him again next time we have a trip.”


About: Dogs and cats have been a meaningful part of my life for the past 18 years, and caring for them has taught me how much love, patience, and trust goes into pet care. I know how important it is to leave your pet with someone who will truly pay attention and treat them with kindness. What sets me apart is that I’m very detail-oriented and empathetic. I notice small changes in behavior, energy, appetite, or mood, and I adjust based on what each pet needs. I’m especially comfortable with senior pets and pets who need a calm, gentle approach. I can also help reinforce basic routines like feeding schedules, leash manners, and calm behavior. I’ll treat your pet like my own and make sure they feel safe, cared for, and loved. Here’s a good way to phrase it: I’m currently between full-time roles, which gives me a very flexible schedule for pet care. I’m available throughout the week for walks, drop-ins, and consistent care, and I can usually accommodate mornings, afternoons, and evenings. Because my schedule is open, I’m able to give pets plenty of attention, stick closely to their routines, and be reliable for last-minute or recurring bookings. Safety, trust, and comfort are my top priorities. In my home or a client’s home, I follow the pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, bathroom breaks, medications, and any house rules. I make sure doors, gates, and leashes are secure, and I always pay attention to the pet’s behavior and comfort level. I keep the environment calm, clean, and low-stress, especially for senior dogs or pets who need extra patience. I’ll also provide updates so owners know their pet is safe, cared for, and happy.
“Dog Sitter Review: Exceptional Care and Attention! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I recently had the pleasure of using John for the second time, and once again, he exceeded all my expectations! This time, he took care of not just my resident dog but also my foster puppy, and I couldn't be more grateful for his dedication and compassion. It was clear that John has a genuine love for animals. He provided both dogs with plenty of attention, playtime, and care, ensuring they felt comfortable and happy during my absence. His ability to manage the needs of both my resident dog and a young, energetic puppy was impressive, and it gave me peace of mind knowing they were in such capable hands. What truly stood out this time was the extra effort he put into making my home feel welcoming upon my return. Not only did he take great care of my dogs, but he also went above and beyond by cleaning my apartment and even disposing of my trash! It’s those little touches that show how much he cares about his clients and their homes. I cannot recommend John enough! His professionalism, attentiveness, and kindness make him an outstanding choice for pet care. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your pets like family and ensure your home is well taken care of, look no further. I will definitely be using his services again in the future! Thank you,John, for all that you do!”

“Forrest and I are so happy to have had Trina drop in and spend time with him. She is a remarkable caregiver and her affection for dogs is undeniable. I did not have to worry about her professionalism (she kept to the scheduled appointment, showed up on time, did not leave the place in a mess, and appropriately engaged with my dog based on his interest and energy level). It’s hard to find someone who can connect with dogs as well as she does and we are excited to have her to sit for us again.”

About: While I've had dogs somewhere in my life as far back as I can remember (belonging to relatives and friends), my big pet care experience started when my family got a dog of our own in 2018 (we named him Fletcher). When we got him, his foster family had mostly potty trained him, but we had to teach him other commands and house rules. In 2023, I spent a summer abroad and helped foster a couple cats, including entertaining, feeding, and cleaning litter boxes. April of Last Year, Fletcher suddenly passed from our lives and left our lives feeling quite empty indeed. Late December, we adopted another dog (named Dashi) with a very different personality than Fletcher. Dashi is very sweet but very skittish, and is much more people/"pack" oriented than treat oriented. Being a student, my hours are limited by class times. Thus, I am happy to walk or visit your dog between 8:00am-11:30am Mon-Thur, and 8:30am-5:30pm Fri and Sun. When walking dogs, I am typically one to go at the dog's comfortable pace, and will plan walk routes accordingly (although, I definitely take suggestions!). At home, I will gladly play with your dog, whether it be tug-of-war, tag, fetch, or any other game. Situation permitting, I would also be willing to take your dog on play-dates or bring my own dog (Dashi, see above) if requested. Please tell me what commands are useful for your dog, and any quirks or behaviours you want me to watch out for. While I can bring my own dog treats, I by far prefer treats that you know your dog likes and will respond to. I am not willing to take your dog off-leash in public until I am sure that your dog will return when I call.
“Mariana did a wonderful job watching my cat while I was away. Her descriptions of how my cat was doing were spectacular. I felt very comfortable with her watching after the cat.”

I provide a highly structured and attentive environment where a pet’s routine is the priority. Will follow your pets routine precisely; maintaining strict feeding, exercise, and medication schedules.
“Courtney took calked our our little 20 lbs doggie while I was away and and also did some play time with him! Communication was great and I was so relieved to see how happy he was with her. It was our first time with Courtneys help but we will definitely book with her again!”

Los Altos Hills pet parents share their Rover experiences
Katelyn was absolutely incredible with my two cats! She did a fantastic job feeding and playing with them, and she sent tons of wonderful photo updates that totally put my mind at ease. On top of that, one of my kitties had a messy bathroom accident, and she went above and beyond to clean everything up.

I was very impressed with G.'s visits. My cat is very skittish but when I returned from my trip, she was calm so I think G. did nothing to cause anxiety. In addition, in one of her daily reports, G. pointed out something about the cat's feeding habits. I was aware of this but felt that it was very responsible of G. to notice it after just a couple of days and bring it to my attention. I will be calling G. the next time I have a trip planned. Thank you G. for being so conscientious.
Rachel is our regular and favorite cat sitter since we joined Rover over a few years ago! She’s very reliable, has excellent communication, provides fun, detailed reports and sweet photos of my two cats. I can go on trips in peace knowing Rachel is handling everything. She takes great care of my apartment and cats and they absolutely love her! Rachel is the absolute best!

Jonathan was absolutely incredible with our two kittens! From the moment we connected, he was easy to coordinate with and made the whole experience stress-free. He sent detailed updates throughout, so we always knew our lil cats were happy and well cared for — and you could just tell how much fun they were having with him. It’s rare to find someone who genuinely loves animals the way Jonathan does, and our kittens were in the most caring and kind hands. We’re already looking forward to booking with him again!

Andrea was so sweet with Benny 🐈⬛ and took great care of him while I was away. You can tell she genuinely cares about animals, and it made me feel really comfortable leaving him with her. Benny seemed happy and relaxed when I got back, which says a lot. I’d definitely trust her again and recommend her to anyone looking for a caring sitter!

We had a wonderful experience with Anastacia.. she took great care of our cat and dog, kept us updated with the cutest Rover Cards and made us feel confident and comfortable while we were away. We would definitely love to have her pet sit for us again and recommend her to others!

I had a great experience with Kenzi!! She was very responsive, easy to communication with, and clearly cared a lot. My cat loved her, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Everything went smoothly and I will definitely book with her again! Overall and all around great experience :)

Josh was awesome. He was able to build rapport with my dogs so quickly which is definitely not the easy. Josh was super communicative with lots of great pictures and videos. I could tell the dogs were very comfortable and happy with Josh. 100% will ask for Josh’s help next time we travel.
Kelly is an amazing caretaker for 16 year old inside / outside cat. She has had to troubleshoot problems on the spot (like a broken e-collar) and travel in unpredictable conditions. She always sends wonderful updates and photos and videos and is very kind, responsible, responsive, and caring. Cannot recommend Kelly more! She is fantastic.
