1. Kate V.

“I had a good feeling about Kate when we connected over Rover and did a meet and greet before I left for our trip oversees. My gut feeling was proved correct as she did an amazing job taking care of our kitties while we were away. She made sure to ask questions and fully understand the assignment before committing to the booking. I really appreciated having daily pictures and updates sent to us every day for peace of mind. She even brought over some toys to try and coax them to play a bit! We also really appreciated her going above and beyond on some extra tasks like resetting our router and grabbing mail/packages that were delivered while we were out. Kate is super responsive, great with cats of all temperaments, and overall a lovely human being. I highly recommend her and will not hesitate to request her services again in the future.”


2. Caroline W.


“Caroline took care of our two Ragdoll cats via morning drop-in visits while we were out of town for a week. I am so thrilled with the care that our kitties received! Each day she diligently left us Rover cards with photographs and let us know exactly what she did to care for them (food, water, affection, play, litterbox). She is extremely reliable and conscientious and it is clear that she truly loves animals. We came home to two happy, well cared for cats with plenty of food, fresh water, and a clean litterbox. We couldn’t be happier and we would welcome Caroline back to our home anytime! Definitely hire her, your pets will be in great hands. Thank you, Caroline!”

About: What sets mI have experience in training puppies, helping them develop good behaviors. I'm also skilled in providing compassionate senior pet care, which includes administering medications and addressing specific needs. My commitment to tailoring my services to each pet's unique requirements, along with my genuine love for animals, makes me a standout choice for pet owners seeking a caring and knowledgeable sitter. I have time to walk the dogs every week from 9am-12:30pm except for Mondays. I'll be in the Bay Area this Thanksgiving and Christmas that isn't coming, and boarding is open now! my care for pets would depend on the service I offer. In my home, I would ensure a safe, clean, and comfortable environment, provide regular feeding and exercise, and offer companionship. In a client's home, I'd follow the instructions they send, maintain routines, and give the pets the attention and care they need, which may include feeding, walking, and playtime. It's crucial to tailor the care to each pet's specific needs and preferences.


4. Stacey E.

“Stacey took great care of our two cats. She got them playing and sitting on her lap for pets. They were well fed, litter clean. Most importantly, they seemed to have had a good week!”


5. Cristina & Ernesto M.
“Cristi has always loved pets, since she was a little girl she wanted a dog and when we finally got it she immediately became its mamma, she did all the chores and took it for walks, potty trained it… but specially she gave it love. We had it for so many years in excellent shape thanks to her care and love.”


6. CJ T.


“I needed a last minute solution as I was traveling to the bay area from NYC for work and had to bring my mini aussie with me. I am so grateful I found CJ ! Very professional and accommodating. But the best review comes from my dog herself. When he showed up to watch her on day 2, she was SO excited to see him she barely noticed when I left. Will one hundred percent hire him anytime we are back in the Bay Area!”


7. Amanda G.

“We met with Amanda at a park with our dog and her two dogs. Amanda is very good at knowing what to do to help the dogs get to know each other. She is knowledgeable about dog behavior. She is gentle and easy going and encourages our dog to get to know her, too.”


8. Max B.

“Max has been great with my cat over the couple visits we've asked him to watch her. She obviously loves having him around as she's always playful with him and gets excited when he arrives. Max is very communicative, providing detailed updates and lots of excellent pics from each visit. He's reliable, on time, communicative, and my cat loves him.”


9. Emma H.
“I've asked Emma to dog sit for me several times and highly recommend her. My dog is very old and has difficulty walking and using stairs, visual impairments, kidney disease, and separation anxiety — the sorts of things I hesitate to trust another person to manage — and Emma has handled all of it flawlessly every time. She's punctual, responsible, accommodating, and I feel completely comfortable leaving my dog in her care for weeks at a time while I travel overseas. Would hire again!”


10. Miriam R.

“She was very professional and sent us updates and pictures after every visit. Our two kitties adored her! We will definitely use her again the next time we travel.”


11. Rrrran M.

“Rrrran was amazing! She went above and beyond when looking after my two cats. She made sure their space was tidy and provided very detailed reports and lots of photos! Highly recommend booking Rrrran.”


12. Michele M.

“Michele was great with my cat. Came everyday as scheduled and sent pictures. She kept him company while he ate and then played with him. Nice to have someone that understands cats. Will use her again.”


13. Jenna H.

“Jenna is super responsible and I am so glad to have her look after my cats. She carefully follows my instructions and also gets started very fast. She is on time every day and also spends time playing with my cats. She also sends a great summary of her visit, so I can be assured that my cats are doing well.”




14. Blair W.

“Blair did a great job on sitting my cat Orianna for a week. Orianna has feline asthma, and needs to be applied with inhaler everyday. Blair initiated a meetup beforehand to make sure she is able to apply the inhaler properly with Orianna. Orianna is shy and likes to hide from strangers, but she approached to Blair after a couple of days visits which was amazing. I would definitely rebook Blair next time as needed.”


15. Paola A.
“I cannot thank Paola enough for the incredible care and patience she has shown while walking my dog, Charlie. Charlie isn’t the easiest dog to walk—he gets tired quickly and can be a bit stubborn when it comes to following commands. Despite these challenges, Paola has done an amazing job working with him. From the very first walk, Paola showed a natural understanding of Charlie's needs and personality. She took the time to go at his pace, giving him breaks when he needed them and gently encouraging him to keep going. Her calm demeanor and expertise have helped Charlie feel more comfortable on his walks, and it’s clear he has grown to trust her. Not only does Paola handle Charlie’s quirks with ease, but she also keeps me updated with pictures and notes about how the walks go. Knowing that Charlie is in such capable hands has brought me so much peace of mind. If you’re looking for someone who truly cares about your pet and goes above and beyond, I highly recommend Paola. She has been a lifesaver for both me and Charlie!”


16. Sevlana A.

“Sevlana was wonderful. She took excellent care our our kitty while we were gone, and she sent pictures and a text everyday.”


17. Thomas M.

“Booking Thomas was our first Rover experience. We were worried about our elderly cat being left alone in our new place but through Thomas' notes and photos, we could see that she was well cared for and happy. He came in twice a day, fed her, gave her meds, and pets and play time which is exactly what we requested. If she is stressed she "leaves a mess" and, to our surprise, that didn't happen - we would definitely book Thomas again. THANK YOU!”


18. Jennifer F.
About: I've looked after dogs my entire life. My home in Mountain View has a wonderful backyard and two border collies to keep your dog company. Down the street we have one of the best dog meetup groups in the South Bay and a fantastic local park. We are genuine dog enthusiasts and love providing a loving home that makes it easy for your to travel and keeps your dog out of the kennels (where we've never had a good experience). I'm available for dog sitting at my house. I can also do dog walks and drop in visits on occasion as needed. When your dog stays with me, they get two walks a day (if appropriate for their age/ability), and great socialization with a wider group of dogs (again, only if appropriate for their temperment/comfort level). I also adjust as needed and we can just do gentle walks around the neighborhood, or I can drive them to some free-run places where they can stretch their legs but be a little more on their own -- lots of flexibility depending on your dog's needs and I highly encourage you to just let me know what you need so I can customize your dog's stay with me. I have a great fenced in backyard so your dog can have lots of outside time while at my house. I also take your dog out on as many walks as you tell me are appropriate for them. If they need meds or special care, you just need to let me know.


19. Madison K.
“Having personally experienced Madison's pet sitting skills, (she happily dog-sitted and walked my border collie on minimum notice), I can confidently attest that she is patient, attentive and genuinely loves animals. She also provided clear and consistent updates throughout the day - which I appreciated. I highly recommend Madison for anyone seeking a responsible, experienced and passionate pet caregiver.”


20. Neeranuch T.
“Eve is very caring and good with dogs. She has helped me walk them and dog sit them for many years. She is gentle and responsible with them. I am very particular with the people I would trust with my fur babies and Eve is one of the very few people.”
