“Sammy was wonderful with my dog Rosa, and took her on long walks to explore the city. She was punctual, communicative, and provided lots of pictures, and made the overall experience seamless. Rosa will look forward to having her dog sit again.”
“Michelle was super nice and on time and sent me lots of photos and videos of my pets, which was nice for the first time she stayed with them. She appreciated having good written instructions and followed them to the letter. And she loved spending time with our dog. Would definitely hire her again.”
“Sara was very responsive, showed up on time and sent several photos of Charlie! The house was exactly how we left it as well which is always appreciated. Would use Sara again!”
“Highly Recommend Celine! This was our first time using Rover and Celine made the process from start to finish so seamless! Our 5 month old puppy took to Celine immediately so we knew he would be in great hands. Celine is responsive, attentive and kind and we can't wait to work with her again!”
“Joytika stayed with my senior cat Taylor and did a great job of attending to her special needs, socializing with her, and looking after her and my apartment over two weeks during the holiday months. When I returned the apartment was just as I had left it, and Taylor was clearly happy with having a new friend and sitter while I was away. Would recommend booking Joytika!”
“Bri and Raj are excellent! Very friendly and accommodating to our two doggies’ needs, who can easily be a handful (one is young and full of energy and the other is older and not always dog-friendly) but were a breeze for Bri and Raj. Will definitely be booking with them again and would highly recommend them to others!”
About: Have grown up in a family that was always filled with big & small dogs and cats. Was always the sibling that fed and walked all our dogs. Have had prior experiences with house sitting an animal sitting from people at my old church I’m a barber located on Polk street Wed-Sat so Mondays and Tuesday I’m free so have unlimited time to walk feed throughout the day. I live in a 2 bedroom apartment with my girlfriend with plenty of room. I’m located in the Marina and great area to be in for the weather with plenty of space and close to the Marina green which pets would love.
“Selena was amazing! She did housesitting for my Dolly and everything went super smoothly. Dolly has a reactive persona (for other dogs), so I needed to leave some specific instructions and Selena dealt with it easily. I'd absolutely use her service again and recommend her to others for any sort of dog sitting.”
“Angela was wonderful! She took such great care of Chowder—sending us frequent updates and adorable photos and videos throughout the weekend. It was clear that Chowder was happy and comfortable the whole time she was with her. We came home to a clean house and an even happier pup. We’d love to have Angela sit for us again anytime!”
“Zulma was amazing. Not only did she send tons of photos, she gave updates on how Bizmark was doing. This was the first time I used her and I would use her again. No notes. Absolutely perfect!”
“Mia is amazing! She stayed with our dog in our home and we felt incredibly comfortable our entire trip knowing our pup and home were in her hands. She communicated with us frequently, isn’t afraid to ask questions and we will absolutely book her again and again! 10/10”
About: I am in LOVE with dogs!!! (And cats)!!!!! I am ready to take your bestfriend out to enjoy the day and have the best time. All that matters when I am with your dog is that they are safe and happy during the entire stay. I grew up with a dog my entire life and I fostered dogs all through college and after. I have lots of experience caring for them and living with them. I’ll take your pup on a bunch of exercise walks and runs etc. When we get back, they'll get to cuddle up in bed and relax too! I am very flexible with my schedules and look forward to hearing how I can better the experiences I offer for both you and your pup! I work from home so I will be able to be around your dog or cat all day and give them constant love and attention. Both in my home and in my client’s homes, I make sure I give the pup and or cat the attention they need. I don’t have any pets of my own so they will receive full attention!
“Joyce was wonderful with our puppy and two kitties and we are so grateful for the good care she gave them while we were traveling! When some stressful stuff was happening around our house, she was flexible and communicative, going above and beyond to make sure the animals were cared for and our stresses were managed. We would happily hire Joyce again!”
“Aoife watched my home, my dog and my cat for a week. She was conscientious, attentive and communicative. And my animals loved her! I would definitely hire her again and I would highly recommend her to other pet parents. Thanks Aoife!”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 10, helping neighbors, friends, and family with walking, feeding, bathing, playtime, and overnight care. I’m comfortable with dogs of different sizes, temperaments, and energy levels, and I always try to make pets feel safe, loved, and cared for while their owners are away. I’m attentive, patient, and active, so whether your dog loves long walks, play sessions, or just calm companionship, I’m happy to match their needs. I also understand how important routine is, and I do my best to keep pets on their normal schedule. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine, and I make sure pets in my care get plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to be dependable for walks, drop-ins, and quality time throughout the week. I enjoy being active, so I’m happy to take dogs on walks, play outside, or spend time keeping them company indoors. I’m also mindful about consistency and communication, so you can feel confident your pet is getting reliable care and updates while you’re away. My priority is always making pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I take time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any special instructions so I can provide care that feels familiar and stress-free. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and careful to maintain the pet’s normal schedule for feeding, walks, play, and rest. I pay close attention on walks, around other animals, and in new environments, and I always aim to create a calm, trustworthy experience for both pets and their owners. Clear communication is important to me, and I’m happy to share updates and photos along the way.
“Raeghan watched our 2 year old australian shepherd, 14 year old yorkie, and 2 year old orange tabby. We have 3 animals so it can be a lot but Raeghan managed their different personalities and needs perfectly! I got regular check-ins and she made sure to ask all the right questions. I came home to happy animals and a clean home. Highly recommend!”
Marina pet parents share their Rover experiences
Shanna took care of our English lab, Hank, while we were out of the country for 10 days. We felt great knowing he was in good hands, and he seemed his normal, happy self when we returned home. Shanna sent pics and videos regularly and was an awesome communicator. She also took great care of our apartment. There’s a reason for all of these 5 star reviews!!! Thank you, Shanna!!!
Wow! Absolutely blown away my William’s diligence in sending content of how our pups were doing whilst we were away as well as caring for them exactly as how I would have wanted. One of our dogs requires SQ fluid administration and a few medications and he was awesome about getting them to her and keeping her comfortable! He also broke through and was able to care for our very standoffish Shiba. Our dogs looked so happy and bright by the time we got home from our jam packed weekend. William was also a very helpful house sitter and even washed and cleaned the dog food containers we had for their meal prep! Would definitely go with Will for all my pet’s sitting needs.
Zulma house sat and cared for my dog for a full week. Her calm and grounded presence were just right for my dog. She was responsive, reliable, and an excellent communicator from beginning to end. I will definitely reach out to her again and highly recommend her for house-sitting and any kind of pet care.
Nicole was the perfect sitter for my anxious dog. She took him out for long walks, kept him comfortable when he was anxious and played games with him to distract him from his separation anxiety. She was punctual, responsive, friendly and sent photos. I highly recommend her.
Jessica is wonderful! I can’t say enough good things about her. First of all my very shy 2 kittens warmed up to her immediately which told me a lot! Additionally I could tell by the photos and videos that she sent, the kitten behavior, her communication, and the tidy home I came back too that she took care of both the kittens and my home as if they were her’s. Malamalama, Sunny and I look forward to having Jessica back anytime. She was helpful, communicative, kind, caring…everything we hoped for in a sitter. 🐾❤️ - Malamalama, Sunny and June
Tasherit was phenomenal, our usual sitter had something come up last minute and she stepped in to save the day. She was incredibly responsive, asked all the right questions prior to the stay and our two dogs and cat were well loved and taken care of all week. Additionally when we had potential flight complications coming home she offered to stay another night and ensure the zoo was looked after. The house was sparkling clean when we got home, we will be booking again!
Diana was an amazing Catsitter for my two fur babies, including getting them to take their meds. My shy girl cat seemed very comfortable with her, which was so reassuring. and she even graciously helped me with a small errand while I was out of town. Highly recommend her!
Aoife was amazing with our dog Freckles. We felt at ease leaving him in such capable hands. She followed all our instructions carefully, was super professional and independent, and made the whole experience stress-free. Freckles can be a bit anxious, but he was calm and clearly really liked Aoife. We’d absolutely book with her again!
Raeghan is absolutely wonderful! She house-sat my two dogs for the first time last week. Both dogs have some separation anxiety issues and one is unsure of new people. She was amazing with them and won my more cautious dog over in no time. She is great with communication and kept me updated with pictures and videos everyday. Will definitely use her again and highly recommend!
