“Zhengjun is amazing! She’s very reliable and great with communication, always sending lots of photos and updates. My dog absolutely loves her. I’m so grateful for her extra care on rainy days, making sure my dog is clean and dry before heading back into his crate. Highly recommend her services to anyone looking for a thoughtful and caring walker!”

“SoYoung is really great! She is very flexible with scheduling & communicate really well. Most importantly, she loves dogs! She is patient with my 2 doodles. Committed to take them on a good long walk & played fetch with them. My dogs came home tired & happy, which is the goal! At the end of the walk she always include pictures, which made me feel very at ease when I'm away. She's trustworthy! :)”

About: I am a lifelong lover and owner of pets with over 25 years of experience. Having had companions, including several dogs, cats, birds, hamsters, and even a rabbit, I have a knack and love for caring for and playing with animals. I am a current fur dad as well to an Australian Shepherd and a rambunctious little Seal Point Bengal. By the way, if your dog isn’t prey driven, I don’t mind rollerblading them and helping them to get some exercise if that is an option! All of what I make here by the way is going towards my MBA degree at USC and continuous veterinary bills for my dog with prescriptions and dietary restrictions. Pet care occupies my time outside of my day job and it gives me an excuse to get outside, provides possibilities of having some company and socialization for my dog (she does especially well with puppies), and other opportunities to get out and be the excitement in or exercise opportunity for a fur baby or fur babies outside of my own. I usually give the animal space and time to feel me out, as well as the environment if they are in my home. I know that not all animals warm up right away and that it may take several visits for the animal to become comfortable with me - I am patient and perfectly fine with this.
About: I’ve taken care of pets since I was 15 and I have 5 pets of my own! I have experience with puppies/senior dogs. I’ve taken care of neighbors dogs and cats throughout the years. I’m currently working full time but I have open availability on my days off and after work in the evenings! I’m flexible when it comes to availability and I accept same day requests. I have a fenced back yard and two eager pups waiting to make new friends! I have my pets separated from my other cats since my cats prefer to be alone!
About: I have a genuine love for animals and enjoy making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I understand that every cat has a unique personality and needs, so I take the time to get to know them and respect their routines. I’m happy to help with feeding, refreshing water, cleaning litter boxes, playtime, and giving affection at their own pace. My goal is to make every pet feel loved and relaxed while their owner is away. I will treat your furry family member with the same care and attention I would give my own. 🐾 I am currently working part time and I have plenty of time to take care cats and dogs daily. I can do frequent drop-in visits. I provide loving, attentive care and make sure every pet feels safe and comfortable in their own environment. I follow each pet’s regular routine, including feeding, refreshing water, cleaning litter boxes, playtime, and giving them affection and attention based on their personality. I carefully follow the owner’s instructions and keep the home clean and tidy. I understand that every pet has different needs, so I’m patient with shy cats and happy to give playful or affectionate cats extra attention. My goal is to make sure every pet feels loved and cared for while their owner is away.
About: I’m not just a sitter. I’m a dog lover who treats every pup like family. I’ve been caring for dogs my entire life. From puppyhood to senior pups, I have a lot of experience tailoring my care according to each dog’s personality, needs, and comfort zone.Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or couch snuggles, I focus on creating routines that keep dogs engaged, healthy, and stress free. Over the years, I’ve gained experience helping dogs with separation anxiety, minor reactivity, and special medical needs (limited to administering oral and injectable medications). Open communication with pet parents is a priority for me. I provide frequent updates, including photos and videos, so you can see how your dog is doing. In order to dedicate myself completely to your pet’s care, play, and comfort, I only accept one dog at a time. However, for everyone’s comfort, I request that visiting pups get along with other dogs since my own dog, Bentley, will be part of their visit. As a full-time homemaker and dog mom, I am home all day and able to provide consistent, attentive care. Your dog will have my full attention for walks, playtime, rest, and anything else they need throughout the day. I don’t have a fenced yard, but I love taking dogs to trails and parks nearby for exercise, fun, and potty breaks. They can relax in a crate or snuggle with me on the couch/bed. Fresh filtered water is always available and treats are given as allowed.
About: Hello! My name is Xiuhui (Sophie). I’m a dedicated dog sitter with over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs. I have a poodle of my own, so I’m very familiar with daily routines, grooming, feeding, and creating a calm, structured environment. I pay close attention to each dog’s habits, diet, and emotional needs, and follow their usual routine so they feel comfortable and secure. My goal is to provide a safe, low-stress, and loving home away from home. I also have experience caring for senior dogs and dogs who may need extra attention. Over the years, my own dog has experienced various health conditions, so I’m patient and comfortable providing gentle, attentive care when needed. I intentionally keep my boarding small (usually 1–2 dogs at a time), so each dog receives focused attention, consistent supervision, and personalized care. You’re always welcome to schedule a meet & greet to see if it’s a good fit. I spend most of my time at home, so I’m able to give dogs plenty of attention and care throughout the day. I follow a consistent routine with regular feeding, potty breaks, and light exercise. I provide a calm and comfortable environment and am best suited for dogs with moderate or lower energy levels, so they can feel relaxed and at ease during their stay. I live in a very pet-friendly apartment community. My home has a comfortable private patio where dogs can relax, enjoy fresh air, and sunbathe safely. Right downstairs, there’s a fenced dog park where dogs can safely go off-leash for potty breaks and light activity, making daily care convenient and stress-free. I always ensure dogs are in a safe, calm, and clean environment.

About: I have a 1yo green cheek conure named Matcha🍵(cuz hes green). I love playing with dogs but my parents wouldn't let me own one 🥲, so here I am. I am available on Tuesday and Thursday. Tuesday: 3:30pm to 6pm Thursday: 1pm to 6pm Weekend schedule varies a lot but I can check upon request. Your dog's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I will always keep dogs securely leashed during walks, pay close attention to their surroundings, and follow any specific instructions you provide. I'll make sure each dog gets appropriate exercise at a comfortable pace, with water breaks when needed.
“Kenny is a great dog sitter! Very energetic, positive, and communicative! Would definitely recommend him as a sitter/dog walker. We were looking for someone to board my puppy, Juni, in the fall and started off w/ a meet-and-greet and some walks to let Juni familiarize himself w/ Kenny. At the meet-and-greet it was clear that Kenny is an experienced dog sitter as he immediately asked all of the important questions. I was relieved to know that Kenny has worked with reactive dogs before, as Juni will often bark when he sees other dogs approaching him out of fear. So far Juni has had three walks with Kenny and always comes back happy and looking comfortable w/ Kenny!”

“Pearl always take the time to get to know my dog's specific needs and preferences, and it’s clear that she genuinely loves animals. The walks are always on time, and she provides detailed updates afterward, including photos and notes about the walk. My dog comes back exhausted (in the best way) and happy every time. I also appreciate how Pearl communicates. She is highly relatable and reliable.”

About: Hi! My name is Angelina, and I've been around dogs my entire life. Growing up with dogs has taught me how important they are as members of the family, and caring for them comes naturally to me. I currently have two dogs of my own. My first dog is 7 years old and truly means the world to me. My second dog is a Shih Tzu (3years old) who originally belonged to my grandma, and he's become a very loved part of our family. Caring for both of them has given me experience with different personalities, routines, and needs. In addition to my personal experience, I attended grooming school and became a certified dog groomer. My training has taught me how to safely handle dogs, recognize their individual needs, and make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I'm patient, dependable, and attentive, and l understand that every dog is unique. Whether your pup enjoys a brisk walk, a leisurely stroll, or extra love and attention, I'I make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for. I'll treat your dog like one of my own and provide updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while they're with me. I would love the opportunity to meet your furry family member and provide them with the same love, care, and attention I give my own Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine because I work part-time, which allows me to dedicate more of my time and attention to caring for pets. I have a flexible schedule and enjoy spending my free time with dogs, taking them on walks, giving them plenty of exercise and attention, and making sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I provide a safe, clean, and comfortable home environment where pets can feel relaxed and cared for. Although I live in an apartment, I have a private patio area and plenty of nearby outdoor spaces where I can take dogs out frequently for fresh air, potty breaks, and enjoyable walks. I make sure pets are supervised, kept secure, and given plenty of attention throughout their stay. I understand that every pet has different needs and routines, so I do my best to follow their normal schedule, including feeding, bathroom breaks, walks, playtime, and rest. My goal is to make every pet feel comfortable, safe, and loved while they are in my care. 🐾❤️
“Omigosh, let me just say. I absolutely LOVED Laurelle! She met us for a meet and greet the weekend right before our trip and she was so loving and caring with our fur babies. I know that I am a helicopter paw parent, and I felt so comfortable and safe having her stop by and take our dogs for walks. I mentioned my fear of Minnie getting lose (she’s a crazy puppy) and she assured me she would be safe. And she went the extra mile to inform me that she had her heavy duty waist harness so there’s absolute no way she could get lose. She does a BEAUTIFUL, Summary of the walks and adds lots of pictures. She is my GO TO!”

“Shawna is so great!! Excellent at communicating. Goose had such an amazing time on their walks this weekend. We didn’t have to worry about Goose while we were away because we knew he was in excellent hands. Thank you, Shawna!”

About: I’ve had a lifelong love for animals and hands-on experience caring for a wide variety of pets, including fish, dogs, lizards, rabbits, and cats. Over the years, I’ve developed a strong understanding of different pet needs, from maintaining routines to recognizing changes in behavior or health. In addition to caring for my own pets, I’ve regularly looked after friends’ pets during vacations and work trips throughout my college years. This includes feeding, walking, playtime, administering basic care, and ensuring pets feel comfortable and safe while their owners are away. What sets me apart is my attentiveness and reliability. I treat every pet as if they were my own, making sure they receive not just proper care, but also attention, patience, and affection. I’m adaptable to different personalities and routines, whether it’s an energetic puppy or a more independent cat. I work from home, so my schedule is pretty flexible, which makes it easy to fit pet care into my daily routine. I’m also really big on living an active lifestyle. I enjoy walking and running regularly, so having a pet actually fits in perfectly with that. It’s great because it keeps both me and the pet active and engaged, and it naturally becomes part of my day rather than feeling like a separate task. I prioritize safety, comfort, and consistency in every environment I care for pets in. In my home, I have a secure, fenced yard that allows pets to roam and play safely. I also live in a quiet, pet-friendly neighborhood with nearby parks, which is great for regular walks and exercise. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make sure to follow their established routines as closely as possible to help pets feel comfortable and stress-free. I pay close attention to feeding schedules, exercise needs, and any specific instructions, including medications or special care. In both settings, I maintain a clean, hazard-free environment, keep a close eye on pets at all times, and make sure they get plenty of attention, supervision, and affection. My goal is to create a safe and trustworthy experience where both pets and owners feel completely at ease.
About: I have taken great, comfortable and loving care for pets for over 10+ years for family, friends and neighbors. Small, medium or large... love them all! Experience with pets that have anxiety and require a little extra special care. Enjoy taking them out to join for pet friendly dinner outings, hikes and car rides. Photos and text updates are sent to parents/ owners to help them feel at ease. I currently work from home 4 out of the 5 weekdays. This allows for time for midday walks and weekend and/ or weekend boarding. Personally I am naturally very active and take advantage of walks during my breaks and lunch so it would be great to have furry companion ;-) I live in a very spacious two story apartment. This is very dog friendly community. Outside the back door to my unit is a perfect dog park within my complex. In the home is just my partner (he is a pet lover as well) and I, no kids, non smoking, no pets with clean simple living.
About: I’ve fostered more than 10 cats, including bottle-feeding kittens and giving medications. I’ve also cared for friends’ dogs over the past few years. I’d love to be your pet’s new buddy—whether that means playtime, cozy company, or sticking to their usual routine. I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for. Pet care is a welcome part of my week. I plan visits around each pet’s routine and make time for attentive care, play, meals, walks, and company. I’m happy to coordinate the timing and details with you ahead of time. Your pet’s safety and comfort come first. I follow your care instructions, keep doors and gates secure, and make sure pets have a calm, supervised space. I’m comfortable caring for cats, including bottle-feeding kittens and giving medication, and I’ll keep you updated while you’re away.
About: For as long as I can remember, I have loved animals. I have always had at least one pet my entire life and I wouldn’t have had it any other way! During the beginning of covid, I started caring for other pets than my own and ever since, I have been pet sitting for friends and family. Looking back to my first pet care experiences, I got asked to care for my co-worker’s pets after knowing them for only a few weeks and I was, at first, a little surprised. Although in reflection, I am proud to say that I think my genuine love for animals can be sensed from the beginning. Caring for pets has never seemed difficult or like a job to me, so allow me to step in and make your life easier! I’m not in school for the time being so I am a bit more flexible but for now, a consistent routine or something for just a vacation would be more ideal as I try to figure out my summer schedule. I am always open for ideas or communicating though! I would love to hear the best way to care for your pet! I am used to animals that need medication or have special needs so I am able to suite your pets needs however they may need.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - North San Jose
Emily was fantastic with my spicy reactive 3 year old foster dog Lacey. Due to Lacey's tough history, I have to do slow introductions to new people, and Emily was very understanding and followed all of my instructions. Lacey quickly came to love her and now I feel fully confident leaving her, with all her quirks, with Emily.

I booked with Zhengjun while on a flight due to panicked circumstances. She came in clutch and delivered wonderfully! From my family's responses, she helped take care of my baby girl Nala and was very punctual with photos for every interaction. I cannot sing her praises enough! You need a rover, Zhengjun is the one!

Yumi is incredibly conscientious, thorough, and punctual. She asks all the right questions and pays close attention to even the smallest details. She also has a real sixth sense when it comes to animals and seems to understand how they are feeling and what they need. You can have complete peace of mind knowing your fur babies are in the right hands with her. I especially love the connection she has with Rio. Sometimes I feel like they must have met in another life. Their bond is genuinely special, and Rio gets so excited to see her. It is clear that he absolutely adores her.

Katelyn has been a great addition caring my dog and cat. I work 4 times a day and Im out of town more often than not. Katelyn is a great communicator, pays attention to details and most important of all, flexible and accommodating to last minute requests and changes. She genuinely cares for the pets she visits. Katelyn enjoys and shows great patience walking my 15 month old rumbunctious dutch shepherd mix dog. And Im sure my cat Jules get some love and affection when my dog gets pick up for a walk. Happy to have found you and thank you for taking care of Jules and Vincent.
