“My first time using rover and kyra made it seamless. She came for a meet and greet and we walked through everything even though it was all written out. Found my new cat sitter. Will definitely hire her again for all future trips.”

“Cannot even begin to express my appreciation for Lauren when she stepped up big time to make sure my best friend was well taken care of when my original arrangements for her care fell through just days before I was supposed to catch a flight. Flexible, communicative, and importantly very good with animals even before she’s had a chance to build rapport with them. It was nice having someone so professional and trustworthy available to take care of Piper! Would highly recommend and would absolutely jump at the chance to book her services again :)”

About: I’ve taken care of two malamutes from puppy stage to adult stage. Very intuitive with dogs as far as noticing issues that might be bothering them. I currently work primarily for Instacart. So my schedule is 100 % flexible. If I am available when you need help with your animal I will be happy to help If I am taking care of a pet at a clients home I will make sure that the house is dog safe so that nothing in the home gets damaged or misused.

“Sarah has been such a wonderful dog caretaker for my pup! She is incredibly attentive and always makes sure to spend quality time playing and giving lots of belly rubs, which my dog absolutely loves. I really appreciate how efficient and thoughtful she is during her drop-in visits, especially when it comes to taking my senior dog out for a potty break. Sarah is genuinely kind and caring, and it shows in how excited my dog gets to see her each week. It gives me peace of mind, knowing my pup is in such good hands. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate dog walker.”

“Halle takes care of my cat Mocha. She is always very responsive and accommodating. I highly appreciate she shares with me by text her observations when she comes over on my cats health I could be worried about + shares how her visit went :) I therefore highly recommend her.”

“Ozcan was totally great! He sent lots of photos and I could tell our dogs were having a great time. He was on time and listened to our instructions perfectly. Thank you for taking care of our pups! We will definitely reach out again in the future.”


About: I grew up in a farm town surrounded by animals and had pets of my own my whole childhood. I whole days with neighbors’ and family’s pets, not because I had to, but because I just really loved being around them. I never got paid. I just loved it. That hasn’t changed. This is my way of staying connected to animals and giving them the kind of care I always have: unconditional, attentive, and full of energy. Your dog will be fed, walked, played with, and absolutely happy and tuckered out by the time you see them again. That’s my promise. I don’t have a pet right now because my landlord won’t allow it, which is exactly why I’m here. I’d love for pet care to be part of my daily life again. I’m active and love having a buddy with me out and about, but I can just as easily take it easy and lounge with a pet who needs some relaxation. I match their energy and needs. Selfishly, being around animals brings me joy and energy. Unselfishly, I genuinely care about giving pets what they need, and sending them home happier and healthier than I found them. Respect and communication. When I’m in a client’s home, I treat it with full respect. I follow your rules for your space and your pet, communicate immediately if anything comes up, and leave everything cleaner than I found it. You’ll always know what’s going on. I take the responsibility seriously and carry myself like a professional, because that’s what you deserve when you’re trusting someone with your home and pet.

About: As a proud pet parent of two dogs and two cats, I understand that pets are more than animals, they are family. I provide attentive, reliable care and treat every pet as if they were my own. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or just companionship, I make sure your pets feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I’m currently working fully remotely so will have plenty of time to play with your pups! I am available any time to take on any responsibilities needed to ensure your loved one is taken care of. I have a fenced in yard and two friendly dogs of my own who would love to keep your pup company. I can crate them, walk them, etc - anything you need to ensure the best time for your loved ones

“Summer is amazing!! She is super attentive, communicative and went above all expectations. Truly felt that my cat Ron was being cared for by a sweet loving energy! He was very happy and healthy when I got back home.”

About: I had a dog growing up as a child and have taken care of my friends dogs numerous times. I also volunteer at the SFSPCA and play/walk with all the pups there. I currently have two lovely cats and hope to adopt a dog again once I have a home with outdoor space! I am currently taking a career break from the corporate life to explore my passions and see what may inspire me in the future. Therefore, I have plenty of time to take care of your babies 😊 My cats are strictly indoor only as I feel this is the safest way to take care of cats (especially in a city). I do take my cats out on a leash at the park occasionally for outdoor time. I think it’s important for all cats to get playtime on a daily basis, snuggles (if they like that), and of course their feeding/hygiene routine. I brush my cats every 2 days. I am equipped to adapt to your cats routines.
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.
About: Ive taken care of dogs and cats of all breeds. I believe every pet should get 1-2 hours of play time a day. In the past I’ve watched pets and fed them twice a day and played with them for an hour each time. My background working in the veterinary clinic means I’m trained in giving medications to pets, pills or injections. For my own cat, I’ve taught him how to give a kiss, give paw and sit. If you put your trust in me to watch your pet, they will be loved like they are my own. I’m available after work Tuesday - Thursday and available all other days to play with your little furry babies. If needed I can visit the home multiple times. I pay attention to all details and surroundings. Your fur baby will be safe with me. I’m very cautious when entering or exiting homes or any rooms that have closed doors.

“Marie did a wonderful job taking care of my car while I was away. She kept me updated on her status and took thoughtful care in making sure my cat got her medicine:)”

“I will book Avery again and again for sitting needs and highly recommend for the best care of your pets too! I was actually lucky enough to have Avery cat sit for my bud Midnight when we needed it most. It’s the worst case scenario but while sitting Midnight had a medical incident that was purely a result of his age. Avery called me and I was with her over FaceTime as she talked to him, comforted him, and loaded him to go to the vet. It’s a scary situation and was so thankful for her care while I was away. For someone to be so sweet and organized and caring in a situation like that I’m so so grateful. Not to mention the oh so happy pictures of the treats and pets while she was checking in! Should have left this review a while ago :) thank you Avery!”

About: I’ve been dog walking on Rover for 2 years now with repeat customers. I’ve also taken care of doggos my whole life and always had one while living with my family! I watch all my family’s dogs on an ongoing basis. I work from home in pac heights/ cow hollow! Flexible with hours depending on the service needed. Also occasionally available on weekends and evenings if needed. I can’t watch any fur babies in my apartment because the lease restricts it :( which is why I’m on rover! I would love to be around dogs but can’t have my own based on my lease. Happy to follow any directions and provide updates ongoing!
“I left my 2 kitties with Kimberly for a week and she was fantastic! She treated them with so much love and took care of them so well! They really bonded with her! I can’t recommend Kimberly highly enough if you want a loving, thoughtful pet sitter to watch your 4-legged family members!!!???”

About: I have had animals growing up and most recently have house/pet for friends and clients over last 10 years. I love animals and always treat them with respect and make sure they are safe I would love to unwind and care for something else when I am not working. I would love a break to take a walk when working from home and to housesit when appropriate My house is always clean and will make sure they are comfortable. For clients houses, I will be respectful of their homes and requests for their pet care
About: Hello! First of all, I have no pets of my own, and I don't book multiple clients—yours would be the only one (or ones, if you have more than one). I grew up with cats, usually four or more at a time (thanks, Mom!), so I've been around them my whole life. Recently I've been cat sitting for friends' cats at my place, and I figured I'd start doing the same on Rover until I get my own pair soon. I'm very comfortable with both cats and dogs, and they always get along with me. I'm a WFH software engineer, so I'm home and around throughout the day. I have a great place for cats to chill: big windows overlooking the street and park, with a perch and lots of light—great for people watching and dog spying, if they're into that sort of thing. There's a good spot for a litter box, and I'm prompt with feeding and fresh water. My place is cozy and quiet, with lots of light, good views, and a calm atmosphere that puts cats at ease. There are plenty of spots for a shy cat to hide and decompress until they're comfortable, and I never rush that process. It's a secure indoor space—no open windows or balconies to worry about—so I can keep a close eye on things and make sure your cat stays safe and relaxed the whole stay.

Jacob is SO courteous, kind and communicative! It is easy to trust him with our little pup, and he makes us feel at ease while we’re away. I’m confident Boog will get thoughtful attention and genuine care when he’s with Jacob. He was an easy “yes” for us to book regular services!

Abigail did a wonderful job taking care of our cat, Owen, for a week we were away. Owen is a senior cat who’s very attached to his humans, and usually does not warm up to strangers easily; but even though it was her first time meeting Owen, Abigail quickly established a rapport with him. She clearly understands cats and enjoys interacting with them. We really appreciated her updates and photos, which helped us to rest easy knowing that Owen was safe and happy during our absence. We would recommend Abigail without hesitation.

Nadya took excellent care of my high energy puppy and he absolutely loved her. She’s super communicative and sent lots of photos and videos and meaningful updates which was very sweet to be able to see and read while stuck at work missing my baby! She’s an excellent dog sitter—very trustworthy and responsible, I would have her back anytime!

William was fantastic! He handled all of my cat’s general and special needs carefully, and my cat absolutely adored him as seen in some of the pics I got to receive every day! I came home to a happy, relaxed, and well cared for little man. Super reliable, communicative, and clearly great with animals. Highly recommend.
