“Christina was responsive, punctual, and took great care of both my pup and my home, exactly as I expected. She was also incredibly sweet and attentive with my dog. I would happily book her again!”

About: Best Buds Pet Care℠ - Providing peace of mind while you are away. Red Cross Cat and Dog First Aid Certified | Aversive Free | Insured Pet Care Professional New to the app but I’ve been caring for friends’ pets for the last 15 years. I am a full time pet care provider with around the clock availability. I am able to provide overnight supervision of your pet(s) via housesitting bookings or up to three drop-ins/walks per client throughout the day. First time clients, please provide your pet’s vaccination records. I must receive vaccine confirmation prior to any physical contact with your pet. Additionally, all introductions to dogs must take place outside of the home to allow for decompression/emotional regulation time and to gauge comfort/trust levels before entering their home. If you employ aversive methods and/or equipment against your pet I cannot accept your request for pet care services. I kindly ask that you seek services from an alternate care provider, thank you. For the time being I only offer services based in clients’ homes as I have two large dogs in my home. In the future for long term dog care clients, we can explore day care or play dates once trust is established for everyone involved. Until then, I am happy to provide one on one time and undivided attention for your cats and dogs while you are away.

About: Ciao! My name is Matt and I'm very excited to have the opportunity to meet you and some of the amazing pets we have here in the city. I currently live near the rose garden/Piedmont. I live close to several other parks, and I always enjoy meeting new pet friends that come my way. I really don't have many restrictions, but all I ask is that if you are interested in meeting to discuss my services that we have great communication (whether it's email, call/text, etc.) I work from home during the week and actively get outside myself, so I'm sure we could work something out if you need help with your pet! Comfort and exercise go hand-in-hand in my experience. Play time and treats are always possible. Companionship is a must and routine is our next best friend.

“Lauren was amazing! She watched our two dogs - Milly and Ivey - for two weeks while we were on vacation. She sent pictures and detailed updates every visit. She far exceeded our expectations. We felt at-ease knowing our dogs were in loving hands. We will definitely book her in the future the next time we need a sitter.”

“Jesse was so kind to accommodate for my last minute booking. He made sure my pup was taken care of and is a very considerate sitter! Appreciate the regular updates and flexibility. Will definitely recommend him for any future bookings.”

“We’re ecstatic to get Christine for cat pet sitting. Her care is beyond basic. My cat is older and required medication and fluids and Christine handled that very well. She was consistent with her timing and visits. I really enjoyed all the journaling and pictures of their visits while I was away. Christine has a great sense of animals and offers intelligent advice from her experiences.”

“I never left My Chutney with anyone else but he loved Patrice! Chutney had accidents every day and she didn’t complain I would recommend Patrice highly and will be hiring her for all my future trips …”

“Such a wonderful pet sitter — she took such great care of my kitties! Thank you for your attention to detail, care, and love for them while i was on holiday. Would definitely hire again!”

“Everything appeared to be taken care of to my specifications and my cats were happy and healthy when I got home! Matthew was also very communicative and friendly throughout my time being gone. Will book with him again!”

About: Hi, we’re Olive and Charlie! We’re both a little obsessed with dogs, honestly — the kind of people who cross the street to say hi to someone’s dog. We each grew up caring for family dogs into their senior years, which taught us a lot about patience and paying close attention — noticing when a dog needs an easy day, or extra reassurance, or just to be left alone with their favorite spot on the couch. Those years shaped how we care for dogs now. These days we’re the go-to sitters for our friends’ dogs, and we’re in the thick of raising our own pup, Pigeon, who just turned one. Living with a curious, occasionally chaotic one-year-old has kept us sharp on positive training methods and reminded us daily that every dog has their own personality and pace — some want to run around and play, some want quiet company, some just want to know someone’s nearby. Whatever your dog needs, we’ll pay attention and meet them there. We’d love to take care of your pup! — Olive & Charlie (they/them) Pet care fits naturally into our daily routine because we’re both home most of the day. Your dog gets real attention and companionship, not just a quick check-in between long stretches alone. Our home is a calm, pet-friendly space — we keep it tidy, hazard-free, and easy for a visiting dog to settle into. Since we’re both home most of the day, your dog is never left unsupervised for long. We know that being in a new environment can be stressful, so we always give new dogs time to adjust at their own pace. We’ll get them settled into a cozy, smaller space with their comfort items or crate first, letting them decompress before exploring more of the home. We pay close attention to body language and stress signals and never rush a dog to warm up before they’re ready. For drop-in visits, we treat your home with the same care we’d want for our own. We follow your routines, stick to your dog’s schedule, and send photo updates so you always know how things are going and can see your pup happy and comfortable. Additionally we have a porch patio with a grass patch for pottying!

“Chloe was incredible! From the moment we met Chloe in the meet and greet we could tell she had the right energy to take good care of our beloved cat. We had to find a sitter last minute to travel for a family emergency and Chloe stepped in and was so communicative, sweet with our sometimes nervous cat, and was so respectful of our home; it put us at peace for the entire trip away.”

About: I've had the privilege of taking care of many pets growing up; fish, a hamster, guinea pigs, and now my cat. Animals have always had a natural affinity to me and I receive that as the greatest honor. My goal is always to make sure animals feel safe and comfortable around me before I engage with them because I respect their autonomy. As of right now, my schedule is pretty free, so I would have time to walk your dogs or hang out at home with your cats any time! I am always respectful of other people's rules and spaces. I will never make your pet do something they don’t want to do (unless they refuse to follow their parent's rules, of course). It is extremely important to me that they feel comfortable around me when I am in their space.

“Shelly was great and I came home to a very happy cat! My sitter plans fell through at the last minute, so I messaged Shelly asking if she could come over for a meet and greet the same night so she could start visiting my cat beginning the following day. I was mainly concerned with my cat getting enough human interaction while I was away. Shelly responded right away and was very prompt for our meeting. She was friendly and my cat felt comfortable w her right away. Shelly visited my cat for the 4 days I was away and I came home to a very happy and content cat. I'll be booking with her again:)”

About: Hi! My name is Phi and I am an animal lover through and through. Growing up my family always has had dogs, including three Havaneses, two Labrador Retrievers, and one Westie/Yorkie mix. I have a background in dogsitting two Maltese puppies that I took care of for six years total, which provided me with experience on administering oral medication. My experience also includes freelance dog walking and sitting with Wag!. One way that I stand out is that I have also volunteered at my local animal shelter and raised awareness for their adoptable dogs. Other than dogs, currently I own three cats ranging in ages 2 through 5, which has given me a soft spot for both cats and dogs alike. I am so excited for the opportunity to meet your pet through Rover and have a fantastic time with them! I currently work a full-time day shift job, which leaves me with time in the mornings, evenings, and weekends to care for your beloved family member. Daily exercise is important to me, which is always made more fun with a furry friend tagging along! I love adventurous walks, trips to the dog park, and cuddles during rest and recovery. Animals are an important and necessary presence in my life, I am committed to make interacting with them a more common occurrence in my schedule. My approach to pet care is founded in the understanding that I have a relationship to build with each animal that I take in or am trusted to care for. These relationships must be founded in trust, love, and understanding for one another. This means that I work to provide comfort and support during things like medication administration, a shoulder to rest a furry head on and cuddle up to, a string toy or ball to encourage playfulness and exercise, and so much more. I treat each animal I care for as if they are my own, ensuring their happiness and wellbeing comes first.

“Stephanie did an incredible job watching my cat! She provided lots of pictures, videos and detailed updates every day. She was also super helpful grabbing packages, watering house plants and dealing with an unexpected ant issue. Truly so grateful! I strongly recommend her for any pet care you may require.”

“My cats had a wonderful time with Tony; even the shy one took to him immediately. He sent me great pics, and I came home to two happy, healthy, well-cared-for kitties.”

About: Hi, I’m Alicia! 🐈‍⬛🐶❤️ I’ve always had a natural connection with animals and have experience caring for both cats and dogs, including feeding, walking, playtime, companionship, cleaning, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable in their environment. I’m currently offering personalized pet care in the Bay Area, with a special focus on cats who may prefer a calm, cozy home environment over a traditional boarding facility. My home is set up with cat-friendly essentials including water fountains, scratchers, climbing spaces, cozy resting areas, toys, and enrichment. I keep my capacity small so each pet gets plenty of individual attention rather than feeling lost in a crowded environment. Before each stay, I like to learn your pet’s routine, personality, feeding schedule, bathroom habits, favorite activities, triggers, medications, and anything else that helps them feel at home. I’m happy to communicate through text, phone, or email to make the process convenient. I understand that pet care needs can come up for vacations, work, moving, temporary housing situations, emergencies, or simply when you need an extra hand. I’m open to discussing both short- and longer-term care depending on your pet’s needs. Whether your fur baby is playful, shy, independent, cuddly, energetic, or somewhere in between, my goal is to make their time with me feel safe, comfortable, and loved. 🏡🐾 I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your furry family member! I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time to pet care throughout the day. I’m available for boarding and care on weekdays and weekends, with time for walks, play, feeding, bathroom breaks, companionship, and individual attention. I provide a clean, calm, pet-friendly environment where safety and comfort come first. I take time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, feeding schedule, exercise needs, and any special instructions. I carefully supervise pets in my care and keep their space clean, comfortable, and secure.

“Ashley was absolutely amazing!!! She took the best care of my baby boy, Haku, while I was away and went above and beyond to ensure he was loved and cared for. 🥰 She cared and played with him like her own and it definitely eased my mind knowing she was so attentive. Even when my timed feeder malfunctioned she came within the hour (and early) to check on him and helped me troubleshoot the issue. (Thank you again!!) She even left him a little present of toys and some treats in a goody bag as a departing gift! I can’t recommend her enough to watch your little one while you are away. I’ll definitely be asking her again to check on my little love when needed. 🤗❤️”

“Nicole is awesome! She seems to really care about Bella and came through for me at the last minute when I had to stay later than expected at work. Super positive and seems to really love animals. ?”
