“Vania was so sweet with our 8 mo old puppies! We felt at ease during our travels. She took them on long walks and even gave them a bath since the days were quite warm. Thank you again Vania!”

“Great job, our pets and their space was well take care of! Before we left, Megan & Jenny R were collaborating with us on how to provide the best care, and stayed in touch during their visits.”

“Presley and Freya loved having Melissa take care of them! I arrived home from my trip yesterday with two pretty relaxed kitties, and a slew of new photos to add to my collection 😁 She was a great communicator, and left everything just as she found it.”

About: I had a dog for 15 years and a cat for 2 years, giving me experience with pets at all stages of life. They are very special and I have a deep passion for caretaking, one that extends to your pets! I can also administer medications if needed. I am a student at UCSF on summer break. I have availability most days—weekdays and weekends, just need a few days notice! I am also a night owl so I can watch your pets well into the evenings! I have a fenced backyard and live in a dog-friendly neighborhood. I love going on long walks around here solo, and a pet companion would make that even better! For cats, I can also take them on walks (if they’re those types of cats haha) or can just stay inside and play with toys.
“Dane did a great job watching my kitties while I was away. He communicated clearly, asked all the right questions, and took some stunning photos of my cats to keep my mind at ease (seriously he should be an animal photographer). Highly recommend!”

“Pat watched our cat twice and during our first meet & greet we could tell he would be thoughtful when watching a pet. He spent plenty of time with our cat making sure he had a companion while we were away. He also made a great artistic sketch of him too!”

“Eleanna has been dropping in on my border collie Moxie weekly for about a month now and she has been amazing! She is very responsive to my last minute requests, great bios and pictures on Rover cards, always on time, and I can tell she is very caring. Moxie always looks so happy to see her, we will be using her again!”


About: I’ve been caring for dogs of all shapes and sizes since I was 10 years old, and as a dog mom myself, I know that your pet isn't 'just' a pet, they’re family. I specialize in attentive walks and drop-in visits for both dogs and cats. My goal is to make sure every parent feels completely happy and comfortable while they’re away or at work. Because my own dog is my baby, I treat every 'furbaby' in my care like royalty. I am also available for overnight stays in my home! I live in a cozy one-bedroom with my own private, fenced-in backyard, which is perfect for safe outdoor playtime. To ensure a calm and personalized environment for my own dog and yours, I specialize in hosting small-to-medium sized breeds. Whether it's a walk, a visit, or a sleepover, I prioritize keeping you in the loop with frequent updates and photos so you never have to wonder how they’re doing. I treat every pet with the same love and devotion I give my own! I am fully available for dedicated care on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays. I also have flexible availability on Saturdays for walks, visits, or boarding. Because I work a set schedule on other days, your pet gets my undivided attention during my mid-week "on-duty" days. I am committed to maintaining your pet's routine and making sure they feel loved and active while you are busy. I provide a calm, boutique environment in my cozy in-law unit, which is located in a pet-friendly building and features my own private, fenced-in backyard for safe potty breaks and outdoor play. Your pet’s safety is my absolute priority; for overnight guests, I use a secure playpen setup when I am briefly away to ensure everyone has their own comfortable, supervised space. My resident dog is a small French Bulldog who is very timid and antisocial, he prefers to keep his distance and is never aggressive, making him a perfect, low-pressure "roommate" for pets who also enjoy their personal space. Whether we are hanging out in the yard or going for a neighborhood walk, I treat your furbaby with the same high standards of safety and love that I give my own "baby" every single day. I love making sure parents feel completely at ease, so I prioritize keeping you in the loop with frequent updates and photos so you never have to wonder how they’re doing!

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Melrose
Kayla is wonderful with Riley! He adores her. During her drop in visit with Riley, she made sure that he got a potty break and plenty of playtime outside, as well as some enrichment indoors. She used positive reinforcement to redirect him as needed outdoors and sent updates and lots of photos. Kayla is a kind and compassionate animal lover, and I would recommend her to anyone!

Another amazing experience with Kathy! She always arrives right on time and provides such detailed, attentive care. We especially love the updates and the beautiful pictures she sends, they really give us peace of mind while we’re away. Most importantly, our cat absolutely loves her, which says everything. It’s clear she truly cares. We’re so grateful to have someone we can trust like Kathy!

Eleanna has been dropping in on my border collie Moxie weekly for about a month now and she has been amazing! She is very responsive to my last minute requests, great bios and pictures on Rover cards, always on time, and I can tell she is very caring. Moxie always looks so happy to see her, we will be using her again!

Ayanna was the perfect pick for my boy’s first Rover! She provided many excellent photos and videos with each visit along with details on his mood, energy level, what he was up to, etc. She was super friendly, easy going, and just as chill as my old man. Highly recommend her stellar sitting services!

Meli, was super responsive and flexible. We enjoyed meeting her for a quick walk through before our trip. Our cat is typically a scaredy cat and runs away from strangers, but she was curious and open to meet Meli. I think her calming presence put her at ease. We have a regular sitter but she wasn’t available and we had to scramble last minute. Meli was a great surprise. Would book again if needed.

Liz was wonderful! She was very communicative throughout the weekend, provided detailed updates after each visit, and shared plenty of pictures so we always knew our fur babies were doing well. We felt completely at ease knowing they were in such great hands. We would happily rebook Liz in the future and highly recommend her!
