“Zoeyanne had great rapport with both of my dogs (who have very different personalities and lots of quirks). She was also very patient and helpful with some problems I had booking the appointment.”
About: I’ve been around cats and dogs my whole life, and I’m comfortable caring for animals of different breeds, sizes, ages, and temperaments. I grew up with cats and was lucky enough to have a litter born in my room, so I’ve been around them from the very beginning. I also grew up with dogs of all sizes and personalities, from playful high-energy dogs to older dogs who need a gentler pace and a little more support. I’m especially patient with animals that are shy, skittish, cautious, or slow to warm up. I know not every cat or dog wants to be approached the same way, and I try to meet them on their terms, earn their trust, and make the interaction feel safe and positive. Whether that means a walk, playtime, quiet companionship, or giving them space, I want your pet to feel comfortable with me. When I take care of an animal, I treat them like they’re my own. I’m attentive with feeding, water, litter boxes, walks, routines, house instructions, and updates. My goal is simple: for you to feel confident while you’re away, and for your pet to get care, attention, and comfort from our time together. I currently have flexible availability and can work with different pet-care needs, including walks, drop-in visits, cat care, and in-home pet sitting. I’m available for weekdays, weekends, and overnights depending on the request, and I’m happy to discuss your pet’s normal routine so I can keep things as consistent as possible while you’re away. I do not offer boarding in my home at this time. For walks, drop-ins, and house sitting, I care for pets in their own home and follow the owner’s instructions closely. I pay attention to feeding routines, fresh water, litter boxes, doors, locks, leash safety, and keeping pets secure and comfortable. I’ll also provide updates so you know how your pet is doing while you’re away.
“Alyssa was wonderful and treated my 2 dogs so well! She showed up on time for all the walks and communicated information about each walk on the Rover website. She even included some cute pics! I will definitely book with Alyssa again!”
“Esmeralda is wonderful with our golden retriever! She is calm, attentive, and engaging, gets in sync with his personality, and lets him enjoy being outside for an adventure, read the daily doggie news or just hang out listening to music. She is a professional when it comes to her canine care so we are confident when we leave our pup with her. Thank you Esmi!! 😁”
“Juan was punctual both for the meet & greet and the walks, had great communication and my dog got the exercise she needed. My pit is a well behaved 65# bundle of muscle so I was looking for someone who had experience with larger dogs. Juan was had experience with Pit mixes so I felt comfortable sending Jelly with him. I used Juan as a fill-in since my regular walker was out of town but would absolutely use him again.”
“Marisela is amazing! and very helpful especially under short notice. Our puppy loves her very much and she was great about changing her pad if she had any accidents and filling her water bowl. I didn't expect her to go beyond the walk but we definitely appreciated it.”
“Meghann is personable and a pro. I have an insecure rescue pup and she was great with him and knew how to slowly establish trust. I would definitely work with her again when needed.”
About: Hi! I’m Victor! I love animals! Over the past 6 years or so friends and clients have hired me to pet sit, dog walk, drop in on their cat, look after the puppy, feed the bunny, you name it!! I’ve got tons of animal experience from being out in nature so often in my life. My older brother worked for the zoo when I was growing up, I held all sorts of reptiles and birds. I exercise daily, so adding your dog to the routine is a great way to spice things up! Although I’ll do my best to match your dog’s energy. Getting excited enough for a run is a good thing, but calmness has value too. I do command training whilst out and about with your dog reinforced with treats and/or attention. I try to care for your pet as best I can while you’re away. Currently I am enrolled in class once a week so I have availability to be certain your pet has attention all throughout the day, alone for 3 hours at the longest. Typically I walk the dogs I sit for about 1-4 hours over the course of 2 walks and 2 relief breaks to get outside. I believe it’s important for dogs to be outside and experience smells. It’s so cute to see them sniff around! I wake up to do exercises before taking the dog out on what aims to be a long morning walk. Especially if we didn’t get out the night before. This ranges from 3-6miles depending on how much time we have. Upon returning, breakfast, stretches and playtime. At this point, if I have work, I step out until I’m finished and then return for an afternoon walk, dinner, stretches, and a relief walk before zzz. Without work I’ll cuddle with the dog, clean up the place, cook some food, do various training exercises with the dog, or go out on extra walks. I don’t offer boarding services at my place unfortunately.
“Lindsey was great with our pup Louie! She was available to come over for a meet and greet and her and Louie took to each other quickly. She took Louie for nice long walks and let me know how everything went. Would highly recommend! Look forward to using Lindsey in the future for walks.”
About: My greatest concern when it comes to working with Rover.com is that you, your pet, and myself all have an awesome and positive relationship. If we aren't a good fit, then the money isn't worth it! I am a local artisan with a flexible schedule and experience pet sitting who finds it rewarding to care for animals while earning some extra income. Every pet deserve's loves and attention when their human family is away. That's why I only take care of one dog/cat/family at a time. This ensures that there's no scheduling difficulties and your furry friend is well cared for. I’m always excited to meet new friends so drop me a line if you need some time. Thanks for visiting my profile :) : Im a studio artist and work from home so I have plenty of time to help care for your fuzzy friends, whether its a drop in visit a walk or something else, I’d love to meet you and your pup :) I have a fenced yard a stay near the bay trail so getting outdoors is very easy. I prefer not to take clients dogs to dog parks for safety reasons but walks and attention are certainly part of the experience.
“Sarah was super great!! This was my first time leaving my dog with someone other than family and he’s more on the anxious side but she was extremely patient and understanding of his space and boundaries. In addition to sending mepictures from their walk she also included a detail report of their session which I loved. Will be booking again with Sarah in the near future!”
“Ryan is extremely knowledgeable in reading my dog’s behavior! I was so impressed by his patience and capacity to meet my dog where she is at and work with her demeanor and personality! It’s a blessing to have him watch over my companion and I highly recommend him!! He kept me updated from start to finish and took candid pictures of her! Ryan was also very respectful of my home and timely!! :) Choose Ryan! 🤙🏽”

“I had Taylor walk my dog Ziggy when my regular walker wasn't available, and he did a fantastic job! Taylor has a calm and easygoing vibe, and Ziggy took to him right away. After their walk, Ziggy was completely tuckered out and had one of the best naps ever. I’m really happy with how Taylor handled everything and would definitely recommend him for dog walking!”
About: Hi! I'm Mariana, 27. While I spend my days in a full time tech job, my favorite way to unplug is by spending time in the nature or playing tennis. I'm active, reliable and dedicated to making sure your pet feels like they are on a mini vacation while you're away. I live right by Gellert Dog Park, it has great trails for daily exercise. I drive, and have a flexible work schedule, if your dog enjoys car rides, we can head over to Mussel Rock Park for sunset views - but I'm happy to match your dog's sense of adventure and pace. Quick fact: I am absolutely head over heels for Cocker Spaniels! My first dog was a sweet, loving Cocker Spaniel named Perlita, who was my companion from age 8-14. AVAILABILITY: Flexible but please contact me for specific dates. My availability is weekdays afternoon and evenings; and weekends I am very flexible - Please contact me before you make any bookings to ensure that I am able to take reservations. I live right by the Gellert Dog Park which offers amazing trails for daily exercise and routinely walks. Currently I am in Serramonte, this area is super safe and quiet.
“Vivian was great! She responds VERY quickly and was open to walking Lou on a weekend while I had to work which was awesome because it can be really tough finding someone on weekends. I enjoyed reading her walk adventures with Lou! It was very detailed and we have plenty of pics. Thanks so much!”
About: Hi, I have ten years of experience caring for dogs. My beloved Rover (German Sherpeherd and Rottweiler mix) passed away last year due to ailment. He lived for 11 years. I also used to work in Nevada and was taking care of two Chihuahua beauties. Please be mindful of the fact that all dogs were rescue dogs. My Rover was rescued from Oakland. My co worker couldn't afford to take care of the Chihuahuas due to medical bills so I stepped in to help for the year I was in Nevada. Recently, on my vacation in Costa Rica, I managed to rescue a Beagle mix puppy from a construction worker who said he found her in a box on the street!!!! I asked my father in law if he had space for her in his house in Costa Rica and amazingly he agreed. Needless to say, I love dogs and have experience with small and big dogs. My wife, kids, and I share the same love for dogs.
