About: I have two years of daily, hands-on experience caring for my own dog, Kylie. She is energetic but can be shy in unfamiliar situations, so I have learned to read a dog’s body language, give them time to adjust, and build trust without forcing interaction. In addition to caring for Kylie, I regularly help care for my friends’ dogs when they are away. This has given me experience following different feeding, walking, playtime, and bathroom routines and caring for dogs with different personalities and energy levels. I am patient, attentive, and careful about following each owner’s instructions. I will treat your dog with the same care I give my own and provide regular photo and message updates while you are away. I currently have a flexible schedule, so I am able to plan my day around pet care and provide consistent attention rather than rushing between visits. I am generally available on weekdays for walks, drop-in visits, and house sitting. I can accommodate morning, afternoon, and evening care depending on the booking. I will confirm my availability before accepting each request and make sure I have enough time to follow your pet’s usual feeding, walking, playtime, and bathroom routine. I provide care in my client’s home, where pets can remain comfortable in their familiar environment. Before the booking, I prefer to have a meet and greet to learn about each pet’s personality, routine, care instructions, and any special needs. I carefully follow the owner’s directions for feeding, walks, playtime, and medication. I pay close attention when entering or leaving the home and always check that doors, windows, gates, leashes, and harnesses are secure. I will never let a pet off leash or introduce them to unfamiliar animals without the owner’s permission. I respect my client’s home, keep the pet’s space clean, and maintain their usual routine as closely as possible. I also provide regular photos and updates and will contact the owner promptly if I notice any unusual behavior or health concerns.
“Vanessa was very communicative around planning the visit and she was also very respectful of my cat’s boundaries around new people! She also was skilled in giving my cat her medication with minimal resistance haha. Thank you for taking care of her!”
“Blessy was great! Our cats really enjoyed her company and she followed instructions really well. Would love to book her again to take care of our kitties when we’re out of town”
About: My family and I simply love dogs. We have a small 12lb dog for almost 10 years. Before that we had a 10lb chihuahua for about 10 years. Both are rescue dogs. I work from home most of the time, and routine is 2 walks per day, one in the morning before 9am and one in the evening before 9pm. We have a fenced yard, so the dogs can be in and out freely when we are home. I can also add additional walks if needed around noon. I also have 2 teenagers who also love dogs. Sometimes they help out taking care them and playing with them. Our home is spacious, lots of places for them to chill and relax.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for several years, regularly dog sitting for my sister, cousins, and friends since my early 20s. I’ve helped with feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and keeping pets company while their families are away. I also have two cats of my own, so I understand that every animal has their own personality, routine, and needs. I’m responsible, patient, attentive, and will treat your pets with the same love and care I give my own. I work Monday through Friday from 7 AM to 4 PM, so I’m available for pet care in the evenings, after work, and throughout the weekends. I’m dependable and happy to work with your pet’s normal routine, whether they need a walk, a drop-in visit, playtime, feeding, or some extra attention while you’re away. When caring for your pet in your home, I make their safety, comfort, and routine my top priorities. I carefully follow your instructions for feeding, walks, medications, playtime, and anything else your pet may need. I’m respectful of your home and will make sure your pet receives plenty of attention, care, and companionship while you’re away. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind.
“Jasmeen did a great job caring for my cat over a long weekend. I received regular updates and photos which was reassuring while I was away. Highly recommended. I would be delighted to work with her again anytime i travel.”
About: Hi everybody my name is Maya!

I have a friendly older mini schnauzer and would love to meet your baby! Of course if not, no problem, we have a balcony and tons of space to roam!
“Katie was great! She obviously loves dogs, was excited to meet ours, and asked good questions about their care. She had no trouble with our requirements. She was always responsive through the app, and flexible with timing when we needed it. We appreciated that she checked in with us, and we loved the photos she sent through the app!”
“Maria has been so wonderful! She leaves detailed notes, takes lots of pictures, and takes good care of my little one during her drop in visits. She asks questions to make sure she's meeting my dog's needs. She is also very thorough and it provides me with relief to know my dog is in good hands while I'm away!”
About: I have been a dog lover and owner for 20+ years.

About: Hi! I’m Lindsey, a lifelong animal lover who understands how important it is to know your pet is in good hands when you’re away. I recently moved to the Bay Area and am excited to spend time caring for local pets through dog walks and drop-in visits. I have experience caring for dogs of various sizes and temperaments and am comfortable following specific routines, administering basic care, and making sure your pet gets the attention, exercise, and companionship they need. In my professional career, I’ve spent over 10 years in client-focused roles where reliability, communication, and attention to detail were essential. You can expect timely updates, plenty of photos, and the peace of mind that comes from knowing your pet is being cared for by someone dependable and attentive. Whether your dog needs a midday walk, a potty break, playtime, or simply some company while you’re away, I’d love to help. I look forward to meeting you and your pet! Pet care fits very naturally into my schedule. I am currently available most days of the week for dog walks and drop-in visits, with the exception of classes on Tuesday and Thursday. Outside of those class hours, I have a flexible schedule and can accommodate a variety of walk and visit times on a regular basis. I enjoy staying active and spending time with animals, so pet care is something I genuinely look forward to incorporating into my daily routine. I am committed to being reliable, communicative, and punctual, and I will always work with pet owners to ensure their pets receive consistent, attentive care. For dog walks, I provide safe, engaging exercise tailored to each dog’s needs while following the owner’s instructions regarding routes, pace, and any behavioral considerations. For drop-in visits, I follow each pet’s normal routine, including feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, playtime, and companionship as needed. I strive to keep pets comfortable and happy in their own environment while their owners are away. For all services, I prioritize safety, reliability, and communication, and I provide updates and photos after each visit.
“Stephanie helped me with my first long night away from my new companion. The thoughtful summary and amazing care and cute pictures really put me at ease knowing my pet was being cared for so well. Looking forward to scheduling again!”
“Zahudy was great. She was very attentive our dog, Oliver, and communicated in detail with us every step of the way. Oliver behaved as if we never left home and I think Zahudy played a major role in him doing so well.”
About: I've taken care of puppies and dogs, cats and guinea pigs. I've administered meds to those who've needed them, I am reliable and understand they are not just pets but a part of your family. I enjoy taking care of animals, interacting, playing, cuddling with all sorts of pets. Very responsible. I currently, due to my living restrictions, can't have pets so what better way to give the love that I have than to treat your babies as my own! I am walking every day around the neighborhood, taking a pet would make it more enjoyable. They get fresh air as will I, we win! I can keep your fur babies company in their home environment while you are out of town. Making them as comfortable as I can so as to not stress them.
“Kelly is amazing! She was so attentive to my nine month old puppy when she dropped in to visit him and walk him for his potty breaks. She was able to patiently allow him to warm up to her and sent us updates with texts and photos and videos. Kelly truly has a love of animals and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable pet sitter or walker.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Millbrae
Jasmeen was fantastic watching our cats during our extended trip. Since we’ve used her before, we already knew they’d be in great hands, and she went out of her way to accommodate our schedule. She is truly one of the best sitters on Rover, we couldn’t recommend her more!
It was our first time working with Sandra, but not the last! She was a pleasure to work with, and our cats loved her (especially our girl cat, she kept climbing on her shoulder!). Very irresponsible, plenty of pictures, and great communications. Thank you, Sandra!
Andrea did such an amazing job caring for my two senior, fussy kitties. She is friendly, progressional and kind. The updates she provided me during my trip helped me feel like they were in good hands and I didn’t have to worry. So glad to have found her and I would highly recommend her for any of your pets.
Outstanding! I cannot recommend Natalie highly enough. She looked after our cats for three weeks and each day gave them excellent care with detailed reports and photos. She outfoxed an invading ant colony, offered to do laundry where cats had sickup-ed, cleaned floors of accidents, brought extra treats, supplies and litter from home.
Hope was absolutely amazing with my fur babies. She made the whole experience very easy, especially since it was my first booking, using the app. She sent me updates and pictures and communicated everything. Would definitely book again she was the best and just amazing overall!
Yujie watched my two cats while I was away for almost 10 days, and I couldn't have asked for a better sitter. She was very communicative, sending updates and photos regularly, which gave me a lot of peace of mind while I was traveling. I would absolutely book with Yujie again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Millbrae stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
