“Adam is a wonderful pet carer and our shy rescue pup immediately warmed up to him. He has a great, calming, positive energy and is completely trustworthy. As soon as I met him, I knew Chami would be in good hands. He's very punctual, always bang on time to walk our dog and responsive with messaging and photo updates. I would 100% recommend him!”

“Jennifer was lovely, attentive, and a great communicator. We just adopted our dog and he has little bursts of aggression and Jennifer was kind enough to come by before their first walk to test the waters. Everything turned out great and Jennifer sent updates and pictures throughout his walks. We will definitely work with her again.”

About: Hello! My name is Mary. I am a lifelong pet owner and animal enthusiast. I grew up on a horse farm with dogs, cats, horses, hamsters, and the odd rogue toad, so caring for animals with love and respect is literally second nature. I'm a somatic embodiment coach by trade, so I have a unique skill set for helping animals feel relaxed and comfortable in my care. I have joyously fostered 20+ dogs and cats in their transition to forever homes, and have extensive experience with house and pet sitting. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and breeds, from 6 pound little weasels to 80 pound gentle giants. I have a special place in my heart for seniors (and have experience caring for them.) I am comfortable and experienced with administering medication. Because I work from home online and over zoom, I can accommodate animals that need a shorter window of alone time. I'd be delighted to treat your fur family with all the love and care I would give my own. I look forward to hearing from you! I have my own online business, so my schedule is very fluid and flexible. I love walking dogs and can easily do day or evening walks and stop-bys. I have experience with staying in many different homes and I know that every animal has its own unique routines, needs and rituals that help it feel in flow. I'm very happy to work with your pet in the way they are used to.

About: I have always had pets, growing up it was cats and rats, now I have a senior Maltese cutie pie I adopted as a rescue 5 years ago. He is a joy and an honor to care for and has brought so much positivity and goodness into my life. I have dog and cat sat in personal settings, for my family and friends when they were out of town. I am familiar with a variety of dog breeds everything from Dachshunds to Great Danes. I have also cared for dogs and cats in a professional setting as well, the pets of my home healthcare clients. I have helped care for three legged cats, dogs with severe medical conditions, and dogs with high anxiety. It would be an honor to care for your loves! I am currently working as a substitute so I have a flexible schedule. I have a few days a week where I am available all day, and a few days where I am available for the afternoons/early evenings. I am always sure to put your pets needs first and make sure they are happy and comfortable. When I commit to a task I see it through and complete it according to instruction and to the best of my ability, especially when someone else’s welfare is at stake.

About: I’ve been a dog person since diapers—started with my parents’ pup, then my own fur baby who lived to 18. Now I’m raising my 4‑year‑old sweetie. Dogs love my calm vibe (and maybe my treat). My friends joke I’m their “dog’s favorite human,” because I’m always the first call when they need a sitter. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I work from home and, being between jobs, I have plenty of free time to give dogs my full attention. I love taking long walks in nature with my own dog—it’s a therapeutic boost for both of us. Living in a peaceful neighborhood and tranquil home makes it easy to provide a calm, safe environment. I typically walk 2–3 times a day, so regular exercise and companionship are always part of my schedule. Safety is a top priority in my home. I have a spacious, secure, closed balcony where dogs can enjoy fresh air safely, and my own friendly dog is happy to provide companionship for your pup. There’s also a fenced area by my entrance, which adds an extra layer of protection to prevent dogs from slipping outside. With these safeguards, you can feel confident that your pet will be cared for in a safe and welcoming environment.

We’ll have scheduled breaks, playtime, potties, etc. to ensure your fur baby comes home without missing a beat! Your fur baby will have 100% of my attention in my secured home.

She was on time, took time to ask all the necessary questions to build trust and had an amazing attitude towards our Churro. Churro came back exhausted and happy. She sent pictures during the walk and gave updates the entire time. 5 stars is not enough”

About: I work from home and have a flexible schedule! I love dogs and spend a lot of time outside and in parks. I am an active person and would be happy to walk, run, hike, or provide companionship for your dog! I have my own dog (8 years old) who is medium sized, neutered and loves dog friends :) We can all walk together, or I will walk your dog separately/individually if he/she prefers that. If you want me to pet sit, your dog must be OK with other dogs since he/she would be at my home with my dog and me. I have lots of toys, lots of time, endless treats and more dog beds than dogs! Reach out and let me know what you are looking for and I am sure I can accommodate! Thanks. I work from home and have a flexible schedule between 8 and 4pm. I have a car and can come to you or bring your dog to a trail. I have a fenced in patio and I have multiple dog beds! There are stairs to enter my apartment which may be hard for senior dogs.

About: I would be delighted to care for your pet! Whether they need lots of exercise or prefer cozying up, I'm here to ensure they have a great time. With a background in biology and a passion for animals, I bring both knowledge and enthusiasm to pet care. Being new in town, I'm excited to explore the neighborhoods with your dog. My experience includes caring for my family dog, a wonderful Lab, and being the go-to pet sitter for friends and colleagues for 20+ years. I genuinely love being around animals and can't wait to meet your pet! Hablo espaĂąol. Falo portuguĂŞs. I am a researcher who works from home, so I have a flexible schedule and can take care of your pet's needs in busy peak work times. I like to walk and explore new parts of town, so pet sitting is an ideal job for me. I will follow your guidelines, maintaining your pets' routines and ensuring they follow their regular schedules. I can offer them exercise and engage in playful activities or keep them company at their own pace, all while keeping them happy and stimulated.

Upper Rockridge, Oakland, CA, 94618

About: I care deeply about animals and treat every pet as I would my own. Along with fostering dogs, I share my home with my gentle 5 year-old dog, which has taught me how important patience, kindness, and thoughtful caregiving is. I’m very attentive to routines, emotional cues, and what helps each dog feel secure. I also have experience caring for senior dogs, and I aim to create a calm, loving environment where dogs feel relaxed, understood, and truly secure. I had a dog growing up so I’m extremely comfortable with and around dogs. In fact, I think I communicate with them better than humans :) I'm usually available most days since I work from home. And sometimes on weekends as well. If you’re looking for someone last minute, feel free to ping me and I will try responding within the hour. Looking forward to long playtimes and walks with your pups and dogs! And maybe some basic commands as well, if desired :) PS I could potentially do overnight house sitting as well, but would have to consider it on a case by case basis. Sorry about that! Pet care fits very naturally into my day. I work from home and set my own schedule, so I’m around throughout the day for walks, meals, playtime, cuddles, and check-ins. Pets are never left alone if they are at my place, and I enjoy building my day around their routines so they feel comfortable and cared for. I care for pets in a calm, loving, and closely supervised environment. In my home, dogs have access to a secure yard for safe outdoor time and a sunny deck where they can relax and enjoy fresh air. Pets are never left alone - there’s always companionship, either from me or my friendly 5-year-old resident dog who genuinely enjoys the company of all animals. I’m very thoughtful about safety, routines, and comfort, and I pay close attention to how each pet is feeling throughout the day. My resident dog does have mild separation anxiety and is currently in training, which means I’m especially mindful about creating a steady, reassuring environment and managing transitions gently and responsibly. In your home, I follow all instructions closely and focus on maintaining familiar routines, minimizing stress, and keeping pets safe and comfortable in their own space.

I am very happy to have found Chloe on Rover. She's a super nice person, and my dog, Raffi, is in love with her. She's helped me out for 2 weeks, and she's been on time every day, gives good long walks, and always gives me a heads up when she's on her way. She's also flexible when I had to make some last minute changes in schedule. I highly recommend her for your dog walking needs. MY dog will miss her!

Yonte took incredibly good care of my dog over an extended period of time and I am very grateful for her support. My dog has some behavioral reactivity and Yonte was willing to put in the time to get to know how best to care for her. She then took care of my dog for several months, going above and beyond to meet her needs for exercise and love. I would trust Yonte with all pet sitting, from short walks to extended stays. She definitely has an intuitive sense with pets and is very loving with them. She is also incredibly kind and easy to work with. I cannot recommend Yonte highly enough for the extraordinary care and love she puts into pet sitting! Thank you, Yonte!

Christine was so helpful with Nara. I had never had a dog walker before and she was so accommodating. My dog was an escape artist and she suggested certain things that might help. She sent lots of pictures that made me feel comfortable when I was at work. I have now put my frisbee escape artist in daycare since she has anxiety about being alone but would use Christine again if the occasion arises.

Byung was absolutely wonderful! I hired him to walk my dog Riley at night while I was recovering from a broken leg, and he was consistently reliable and on time every single evening. He even helped with feeding Riley one night when I was out late for work. Riley adored him — he’d light up the moment he arrived. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. I’ll definitely reach out to Byung again whenever I need help. Highly recommend!
