Hannah is legitimately a dog whisperer. My pitbull is fearful and reactive toward people, but within a few minutes of their first meeting, Hannah had Maisie taking treats from her hand and playing fetch. Once she started playing fetch with Maisie, my dog completely ignored me and kept bringing the ball back to Hannah instead of me. Maisie has never done that with other people. I've had Hannah come to the house 3x and it's been great every time. Maisie loves her. Hannah is really easy to communicate with, is always on time and has great ideas about how to work with my dogs. I trust her and her instincts completely.

Zsa Zsa was absolutely wonderful and went above and beyond to care for Dinka. The visits were during a period of high heat and she conscientiously checked the temperature each day to make sure the home didn’t get too hot for my cat. She is kind and patient with cats, and very communicative and responsible. I highly recommend her as a catsitter!

About: I have experience caring for furry dog friends. I'm comfortable with walking, feeding, giving medication, and providing attention and playtime. Whether your dog is energetic or laid-back, I make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away. Hi, my name is G'la! I'm excited to meet new pets and provide them with loving, reliable care. I work a hybrid schedule, which gives me the flexibility to offer consistent attention and companionship throughout the day. Whether it’s a midday walk, playtime, or just keeping a furry friend company, I truly enjoy making pets a natural and joyful part of my daily routine. I adjust my care based on each pet’s routine and personality. In a client’s home, I follow their instructions closely to keep pets comfortable in their familiar space—feeding, walks, playtime, litter box or yard clean-up, medication, and plenty of companionship. I also make sure the home stays clean, safe, and secure. If I’m caring for pets in my own home, I create a calm, pet-friendly environment with plenty of space, enrichment, and supervision. I keep to their feeding and exercise schedule and give them lots of affection and attention to help them feel at ease while they're away from home.

About: My husband & I are semiretired professionals who have been raised with pets our entire lives. We are proud to say that we’re experienced, detail oriented, and extremely responsible animal lovers who believe pets are our kids……so much so that our vets said we are one of the best pet owners they’ve encountered and love to be our “kids” in their next lives. 🤣 We are not a typical kennel or boarding club, we focus on attentive quality care, love, mutual respect & positive energy over anything else. As loving pet parents, we understand it’s a huge decision when you have to leave your fur babies in strangers' hands. Rest assured we hold up to our words, we’ll love and care for them just like our own! Our goal is to always put ourselves in your shoes and their paws😆 and provide the best-pampered care for your babies and peace of mind while you’re away. We are perfect for babies with separation anxiety as we are home 24/7. Your fur baby will NEVER be left alone & treated like a number! His/Her safety and comfort are our TOP priorities when staying with us. We promise 😊 We are generally flexible with drop off and pick up time. Communication and mutual respect are key factors to any positive relationships. Please note daycare is limited to 9 hours only, Our yard is securely fenced, with ample green lawn and play area. There are plenty of outdoor opportunities with not cameras, but actual IN PERSON supervised playtime at ALL TIME to keep your little ones active & happy. The interior is padded with floor mats for comfort, slip & fall prevention (great for senior pups). We also have a separate ground floor guest quarter that’s perfect for cats, rabbits and hamsters who do not wish to interact with dogs as we do have the sweetest senior Shih Tzu rescue, Augustina🐶. She likes all new friends but minds her own business most of the time. Given that said, your babies must be human friendly.😅

About: Dogs have always been an important part of my life. I grew up with large and medium sized ranch dogs, and have taken care of small dogs growing up. I have experienced the full spectrum of canine care from puppies to end of life. Frequently I take care of dogs for family members as well and I love puppies! I have experience aiding in puppy training (not a certified professional but can help continue your home training), walking, feeding, bathing dogs and giving canine medication. I fully believe that dogs are meant to be outside and exercised as much as they are able for the best quality of life. From hikes, parks, walks around the block and cuddles, I’ll be there for your pup! I’m a graduate student therefore my availability for walks and drop ins, is strict to Wednesdays, Saturdays and Sundays. But flexible during the hours of those days. Some evenings can be arranged on Thursdays and Fridays on a case by case basis. I can only offer daytime boarding in my home on Tuesdays as that is when I have online classes. Currently have some flexibility before classes start. I do really well with instructions if you have any specific needs for your pup! I am willing to clean up after puppy messes as well during puppy drop ins. For pups staying with me, I have a large fenced in backyard for your pet to lounge in. It is mostly made of brick and synthetic grass so your pup with stay clean with me! There is also a large dog park located a 10 minute walk away from me.

About: I am active, reliable, and a good communicator. I’ve pet sat and walked w/ a wide variety of breeds and backgrounds to include rescues. Would love to hear all about your pet and their needs. I am a teacher on summer break. My schedule is pretty open in the summer and I’m done working by 4:30pm typically on school days When I am pet sitting or taking someone’s pet for a walk, I typically stick to their regular schedules, routines, etc. I want to help your pet experience the least amount of stress when we go for walks and when their owners are temporarily absent.

About: As a dedicated and experienced pet sitter, I am passionate about providing the best care possible for all types of pups. As a specialized pet sitter for bully breeds and small dogs, I understand the unique needs and quirks of these adorable dogs. With years of experience and a deep love for all things pup, I am committed to providing the highest level of care and attention to your furry friend. Everything from numerous short walks and playtime (temperature permitting) to feeding and medication administration, you can trust me to provide reliable and compassionate care for your dog. I am dedicated to ensuring your pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you're away. My home has ramps to access all furniture and gates to prevent pups from running up and down stairs to protect their spines and potential IVDD flare ups. Our morning starts off with a walk around the neighborhood, then it’s breakfast time which means training and play with positive reinforcement! Your pup then has playtime with toys and with my dog Penelope if they are up for it or can snooze away. We then take a quick walk during lunch to stretch our legs and say hi to our friends at Rocky’s. After work we love to be in nature and hit the trails or parks to get some steps in! After dinner I love nothing more than to cuddle with the pups on my couch before bed! We have an outdoor deck that the dogs always have access to. Mostly serves as a sunbathing lounge 😎. The deck is also equipped with grass patches for easy potty breaks. Your pup with have the company of my dog, Penelope. She is a playful and well behaved French bulldog. I have a robust routine for her to keep her healthy and prevent her from being affected from her predisposed IVDD. I can easily incorporate any special needs or request that your day may need.

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.

I can’t recommend Francesca highly enough! From the moment we met, it was clear she had a natural connection with animals. Our dog, Cali is usually shy around new people, not an issue with Francesca, they bonded right away. Cali wasn’t just well taken care of, she was genuinely happy, which we could see from the daily updates, photos, and videos Francesca sent. Francesca truly goes above and beyond, treating every pet like her own. She’s reliable, attentive, and clearly has a deep love for animals. Knowing Cali was in such capable and loving hands gave us so much peace of mind. We’ll absolutely be booking with her again! She also takes care of and rides horses, so you know she's excellent with all pet sensibilities and can handle dogs no matter where they are on the aggression spectrum.

About: As a dedicated and experienced pet sitter, I am passionate about providing the best care possible for all types of pups. As a specialized pet sitter for bully breeds and small dogs, I understand the unique needs and quirks of these adorable dogs. With years of experience and a deep love for all things pup, I am committed to providing the highest level of care and attention to your furry friend. Everything from numerous short walks and playtime (temperature permitting) to feeding and medication administration, you can trust me to provide reliable and compassionate care for your dog. I am dedicated to ensuring your pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you're away. My home has ramps to access all furniture and gates to prevent pups from running up and down stairs to protect their spines and potential IVDD flare ups. Our morning starts off with a walk around the neighborhood, then it’s breakfast time which means training and play with positive reinforcement! Your pup then has playtime with toys and with my dog Penelope if they are up for it or can snooze away. We then take a quick walk during lunch to stretch our legs and say hi to our friends at Rocky’s. After work we love to be in nature and hit the trails or parks to get some steps in! After dinner I love nothing more than to cuddle with the pups on my couch before bed! We have an outdoor deck that the dogs always have access to. Mostly serves as a sunbathing lounge 😎. The deck is also equipped with grass patches for easy potty breaks. Your pup with have the company of my dog, Penelope. She is a playful and well behaved French bulldog. I have a robust routine for her to keep her healthy and prevent her from being affected from her predisposed IVDD. I can easily incorporate any special needs or request that your day may need.

Mary is an absolutely amazing pet sitter! She took such wonderful care of my cat, Zelda, and I couldn’t be more grateful. Mary genuinely loves animals—she connected with Zelda right away and made her feel safe and comfortable. Mary is kind, attentive, and generous. She goes above and beyond in every way, making sure Zelda’s needs were not only met but exceeded. She kept me updated with regular photos and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. I could tell Zelda was happy, relaxed, and well cared for. It's rare to find someone who is both so professional and so genuinely caring. Mary treated Zelda like she was her own, and that means the world to me. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, thoughtful, and loving sitter. I will definitely be booking with her again!

About: I'm an Oakland-based designer who's always happy to open my home to more furry friends! I have extensive experience in animal care, including working for a local vet as well as in the Live Animal Center at Boston's Museum of Science. I am comfortable with a variety of animals and understand that each and every pet has their own specific needs. I have raised several rescue dogs & cats and understand the challenges that often come with these transitions. I have been working as a part-time dog walker & cat sitter for the past three years and have worked with extremely skittish dogs, as well as those with aggression issues. All dogs and all pets will find a welcoming home with me. I work primarily from home during the week and have a flexible schedule. I primarily work from home with a flexible work schedule. I am happy to work with you to build the schedule that best fits your needs. I will adhere to your pet's typical routine (feeding schedule, medication administration, exercise & playtime routines) to help them feel as comfortable as possible while they are in my care.

Elizabeth has been a godsend in caring for our dog when we have had to travel. Liz is so well organized and reliable, I am always impressed with the level of thought and care she shows in dog sitting. She is just amazing with dogs, and our little guy has thrived when he is in Liz’s care. I fully recommend her without any hesitation.

Jesse is so lovely. He is warm and caring and instantly bonded with our four cats! We have used him in the past, and we feel very safe leaving our darlings with him. He is communicative, responsible, and even during short visits he stays in contact with photos and updates. I cannot recommend him highly enough!

Jacob is amazing! Very thorough notes and took some amazing photos of my cats. He even got my shy cat out to play. Getting notes and pics from Jacob was a highlight of my day while I was away and it's great to know my cats are receiving excellent care and play time.

Thomas has stepped in to help me after my dog suffered a surprise bout of IVDD. When I come home my puppers seem happy and well cared just as if they had been with me all day. I appreciate Thomas's experience with senior dogs and bladder expression. That was really important to me in my search for support. You can't go wrong with this Rover, friends. 12 stars!

This is our first time using Rover and we are grateful that Hannah responded on such short notice! We just adopted our dog and he’s still apprehensive and not quite used to his new environment yet. Hannah was so sweet and gentle with him and earned his trust right away. Hannah communicates well and adjusted to our needs and our pup’s needs extremely well! Thank you Hannah!

Ashley is so great with Rusty, and with making us feel at ease for his first walker experience! Ashley was super familiar with how to manage his excited behaviors, how to effectively walk him with his special collar, how to respond to his vacuuming and jumpiness, and how to make him feel comfortable :) We highly recommend Ashley!

Emily is the most attentive and responsible pet sitter we’ve hired. She took such good care of our three kitties. Every minute was spent feeding them, cleaning up, playing and getting to know each of their personalities. Our kitties are a bit shy, and she was the first to get all three to trust her in the first couple of days. Would highly recommend.

Anna and Kevin were amazing! They were great with our pair of kitties on some short-notice visits. They were easy to communicate and coordinate with, took great care of our pets including pet-related cleanup and playing, and they did a great job keeping us updated as they completed their visits. (And, they got some great action shot photos of our little ginger cat playing!) We'd happily use them again, and would strongly recommend them for other pet owners. Thank you Anna and Kevin!

We always feel good about leaving our kitty Oona in the care of Diana! She is super communicative, kind, and reliable. She also takes really cute photos of Oona playing and cuddling with her and chowing down on her food. They have a great rapport. We're thankful to Diana for taking such great care of her, and we highly recommend her as a pet sitter!

Juliana provided such excellent care of our dog and cats during our vacation! She was prompt in her service and detailed in her reports and photos. When our elderly dog had a potty accident, she kept us informed and then did a thorough job cleaning the floors and laundering our dog’s bed. It’s tough to learn of your pet’s difficulties from far away, but when you have a dedicated sitter like Juliana, it makes all the difference in calming your anxieties! We are so happy and thankful to have found Juliana!
