“We just had an amazing experience with Son caring for our two dogs. He was super attentive to our 13 year old Labradors need and gave our Husky special attention during his visits. Son is very reliable and has excellent communication. We will be using his services in the future. Thank you Som for everything !”
“Mallory is fantastic! Reliable, attentive, thorough, and provided detailed updates and photos. She gave the gift of peace of mind, especially as my dog is elderly and gets a variety of medicines and ointments. I would absolutely book again.”
“I would highly recommend Zhengjun when considering someone to take care of your pet. Zhengjun stepped up and took over for my original sitter when that arrangement didn’t work out properly. Without Zhengjun’s assistance we would have been in a real predicament. So thank you Zhengjun for stepping up and saving the day!!”
About: Animals have always been a big part of my life. I’ve cared for an Akita dog and cats since they were just seven weeks old, and I currently look after a one-year-old corn snake and two four-year-old river turtles. I understand that every pet has its own routine, preferences, and comfort zone, and I’m patient and attentive to those individual needs. I treat every animal as if they were my own. I communicate clearly with pet parents, provide regular photo updates, and make sure you always feel at ease while you’re away. Your pets’ happiness and safety always come first — and I’ll do everything I can to make sure they feel loved and well cared for. I can provide pet care on weekdays, both early mornings and late nights, with flexibility on weekends to fit your schedule and your pets routine! At your home, I make sure your pet’s space stays familiar and comforting. I follow their usual schedule for feeding, play, and rest, keep litter boxes and living areas clean, and provide companionship and reassurance while you’re away. I also send regular updates and photos so you can feel at ease knowing your pet is happy and well cared for.
About: I love dogs, I walk dogs often at my parents house with their dogs. My parents have two dogs. A large dog and a small dog. I like to walk the dogs to the park which is about a mile away, hang out at the park before returning back to their house. I am currently working full time. I work in healthcare. I have a flexible schedule. Typically work 8/9ish - 4/5ish. I am also a single parent to a 15 year old, sometimes she will join me if she isn’t feeling lazy haha Your pets safety is my number one priority. I will treat your pet like my own. Your pet will remain safe under my care. I will be happy to send you photos, videos and take your phone calls at any time.
“Hope is a very nice and responsible sitter. My dogs love her. One of my dog Vishaka is stranger unfriended. But she gradually accepted and love her. She begged her to pet the last few sitting days. Hope messaged me and sent pictures everyday during the sitting. Thanks to Hope, my family were able to enjoy the vacation and no worries of the dogs.”
About: I've been looking after family and friends' pets for 10 years, I also had a 16-year-old American Eskimo of my own. I have cared for both high-energy and elderly dogs. I'm all about building trust and being reliable, so you can count on me to keep you in the loop and follow your instructions to a T. I truly love animals and will treat them like my own! I am attending a Master’s program online and am usually home, so my schedule is very flexible and I have ample time to care for your pet. My backyard is completely fenced in with a grass lawn for your pet to explore. I will also take many pictures when caring for your pet to keep you updated!
“Diana was AMAZING. She saw our sick cat on very last minute notice, worked so hard to get her meds in (even though my cat can be resistant), made sure my kitty was super comfortable, sent us ABUNDANT photos, put out a whole array of different foods from different places in our apartment as we were trying to get her to eat, etc. the list goes on. We were so incredibly worried about our kitty and Diana put us at ease with her care. We would hire her again in a heartbeat. She was also just so kind, patient, generous, and communicative the whole way!”
“Chris was amazing with our puppy August! He even took him on a walk with his doggo so he could practice pack walking, as well as other manners and obedience training during the walk. August thoroughly enjoyed his time with Chris and was able to take a good long nap afterward. August is already looking forward to his nest outing with Chris, thanks!”
“Michele was wonderful as always. She took extra special care of our kitty while we were away getting married! I had a very important package arrive late one evening and Michele made a special trip to come bring it safely inside. She really goes the extra mile and makes sure we arrive home to a happy cat and everything as we left it. Thank you Michele!”
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.
“Yifei was amazing with our two cats! This was our first time using Rover and our first trip away since getting them, so we were pretty nervous, but she made the whole experience stress-free. She came twice a day and always sent great photo updates along with detailed notes about how they were eating, litter box updates, and how they were doing overall, which we really appreciated. Our cats are very shy, but over the 5 days they totally warmed up to her and were even asking for pets by the end. She was super reliable, communicative, and followed all of our instructions carefully, even when we had a few updates during the stay. We felt our cats were in great hands and would absolutely book her again. Highly recommend!”
About: I’ve cared for my 2 big babies for about 8 years now. At first I had only one dog, then she got pregnant and I helped deliver all her babies at home. We found homes for all of them, but we kept one. So now they are mother and daughter duo. I’m currently open to work from 10 am to 5 pm from Monday through Friday. Please consider me to take care of your fur baby when you’re away from home. At home I have two loving dogs that are freed to roam everywhere. They are friendly with people just not so much other fur babies.
About: I was raised with cats and dogs ever since I was a little kid. I can’t recall a time in my life where there wasn’t a furry friend around. Many of my pets I’ve had since they were babies until old age, so I have experience with animals of all age groups as well as breeds as small as chihuahuas to large Siberian huskies. I also have experience giving medications from my time watching a cavapoo with heart and lung issues. I’ve been off work the past 4 months because I recently had a baby girl and she loves our pets at home, but I want to get us out of the house more and what better way to do that than meeting new furry friends! I’m very respectful of peoples spaces and routines and always leave a space exactly as it was. I am willing and able to do whatever needs to be done to ensure the best care I am capable of providing
About: I am a Dog mom of 7 years, Cat mom of 2 years. I love walking my dog and playing with my cat, after my dog turn 5, she is no longer wants walk for more than a total of 3 hours a day with multiple times. I got great experience of walking dog. My baby is a reactive girl, I have experience dealing with that. My baby cat girl is a super energetic cat, I spend everyday 2 hours of focus playing with her. My biggest thing is that I promise your pet safety. I am currently a college students, this means I have plenty of time hang out with your babies~ I love walking dog and stay with cat, but my babies are sometime overwhelmed. Which I would like to have some of my time to interact with other babies. When my dog baby is young, I use to walk her a total of 3 hours per day, even can be longer. Right now she prefer 2 hours, I am a bit bored about it. I have long experience of feeding my street cat, and 2 years of cat mom. I know every personality, and I respect every personality.
About: I’ve been a true dog-and-cat person since junior high. Growing up, I was basically the “head zookeeper” of our home (2 dogs, 2 cats!), so I’m comfortable with all kinds of personalities, energy levels, and quirks.Now, as a full-time WFH professional based in San Jose, I’m home all day—meaning your pup gets constant attention, care, and companionship. I don’t just watch dogs—I treat them like family from the moment they walk through the door. ❤️ The "SJC Convenience" 🛫 Traveling soon? I’m located in San Jose, just about 20 minutes from San Jose Mineta International Airport, making drop-off easy and convenient on your way to the airport.I’m also happy to accommodate last-minute bookings and unexpected travel plans—if your trip comes up suddenly, you can count on me for reliable care. This is your dog’s second home ❤️ - Total Supervison: I’m home 24/7. No lonely pups here! 🏠 - Built-in Bestie: Our friendly Cockapoo puppy is always down to play. 🐩 - Same-Day Ready: Urgent daycare or emergency boarding? No problem. ⚡ - Photo Updates: I’ll send plenty of pics so you can relax on your trip. 📸 I have a remote job, so your dog will have 24/5 companionship and supervision during the week. I offer boarding Monday through Friday and are always open for last-minute or same-day bookings for those urgent needs. I also provide walking services when I don’t have pups boarding at home. While I focus on weekdays, I’m happy to discuss weekend care for my regular, returning clients! Safety is my top priority, and since I’m home full-time, I’m always there to keep a close eye on everyone. I have a friendly young Cockapoo in our apartment, but I’m very careful about how dogs interact. If your pup is a bit shy or just isn't in the mood to meet our puppy, I can easily give them their own dedicated room to relax in so they feel completely comfortable and at ease. I’m also happy to follow whatever routine your dog is used to at home. If you prefer they be crated for naps or bedtime, I can definitely make that happen. Whether they are playing with our pup or enjoying some quiet time, they’ll be treated like a member of our family the whole time they are here.
“Joleen is such a sweet human and pet sitter! She goes above and beyond to care for the animals she watches over. She swept up litter and cleaned out Jack’s wet food dish everyday! She played with Jack and was respectful in our home! Jack can throw a fit and poop outside his box when we leave and she was so sweet in taking care of his temper tantrums! She was thoughtful enough to bring in our Amazon packages as well! Defintiely would rebook with Joleen”

Ni is, without a doubt, the most responsible Rover sitter we have ever had. Not only did she carefully follow all of our instructions, but she consistently went above and beyond by spending extra time playing with and cuddling our cat, Lottery. Every visit came with detailed updates, lots of photos and videos, and she even kept an eye out for things around the house that we might not have thought to check ourselves. Honestly, I think Lottery now loves Ni more than anyone besides me and my husband! Cats are the best judges of character, and Lottery’s affection is the clearest proof of how well Ni cared for him. She made him feel comfortable, happy, and loved, which in turn gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. We feel so lucky to have found Ni, and we honestly can’t imagine a better person to care for Lottery when we’re away. Thank you, Ni—you are absolutely amazing! ❤️🐱
We were extremely happy with Yifei’s care. We entrusted our 16-year-old cat to her for five days. Due to our cat’s health condition, he needed liquid gabapentin administered by syringe into his mouth, and she handled this responsibility wonderfully. When we returned home from our trip, it was clear that everything had been done exactly as we had requested, and our cat was calm, comfortable, and happy. Normally, after we come back from a vacation, he is stressed and has usually lost some weight. This time, however, he was relaxed, content, and had maintained his weight perfectly. It was obvious that he had a great time with his sitter. In fact, before we arrived home, I checked the camera and saw him waiting by the door, most likely expecting her to come. We would absolutely love to work with her again. If you’re reading this review, don’t hesitate for a second—reach out to her directly. We couldn’t be happier with our experience. Thank you so much
We just had an amazing experience with Son caring for our two dogs. He was super attentive to our 13 year old Labradors need and gave our Husky special attention during his visits. Son is very reliable and has excellent communication. We will be using his services in the future. Thank you Som for everything !
Meg was so exceptional with our cat while we were away, we could tell he was getting so much love with her and such great play time. Her rover cards had the best pictures and made our hearts so happy!! She knew exactly how to cat with him and it was everything he needed. I would recommend her a thousand times over!
If you're looking for a phenomenal cat sitter, Anabel is the one. She was always on time and super responsive whenever I reached out, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. I also really appreciated how flexible she was with the timing. Going above and beyond just the basic care, she actually took the time to train my cat! It was such a cool surprise and shows how much she truly engages with the pets she watches. Highly recommend!
Laurelle was great from day one, she spent extra time helping Bunny and Simba get comfortable and really focused on building trust with them. She was very thoughtful and communicative, even working around unforeseen issues proactively. It’s clear she’s patient, attentive, and genuinely cares about the pets she looks after. I highly recommend her!
