“We had such a wonderful experience with Polar’s caregivers! They were incredibly sweet, patient, and attentive with her. Polar is a very playful dog who loves—and definitely demands—a lot of attention, and they were so wonderful with her. They took her to the park, gave her lots of love and attention, and kept us updated throughout her entire stay, which gave us so much peace of mind. We highly recommend them and would absolutely love to have Polar stay with them again in the future! Thank you so much for taking such great care of our girl! ❤️”
“Our puppy had such a great time with Ying! She was super attentive to all our puppy’s needs and sent lots of pictures. She was very responsive and answered all my questions. Her dog has also been a great playmate for our puppy, so they get lots of energy out too.”
About: I’m an experienced dog sitter who just relocated from San Francisco. I regularly watched a dog 3 times a week and can take up to 2 dogs at once. I've helped take care of my parents dog for 8 years since she was a puppy and I take her to the beach, for walks, to play at the dog park, and bathe her regularly. I work until 3pm so I have plenty of time in the afternoon to take pups out for walks. I love meeting new dogs and am used to high energy dogs. I am very comfortable around dogs and want your dog to be happy. I am very clean and want to be considerate of your space.
“Odin had a great time, settled right in with the pack. Edward and Elisha are very communicative and provide lots of photos, they have been great to work with. Odin will definitely be going back for more fun!”
“We have used Renz several different times and he’s always been great! Pepper loves he and his partner and their sweeeeet dog, Whiskey. Renz is very easy to coordinate with, follows all my instructions, troubleshoots intelligently, is skilled in obedience training, and seems to really enjoy learning Pepper’s needs. He has access to a variety of dog parks and trails, including agility structures, so I know Pepper is always going to have fun and be stimulated. Highly recommend!”
“Silvana took incredible care of my very anxious dog. He typically has separation anxiety and takes a while to get use to a new place, but she made him feel comfortable right away. She took him on walks, took him to the park to play with another dog he felt comfortable with, and made sure I was updated throughout the day with pictures and videos. When I went to pick him up he gave her kisses goodbye :) We absolutely will re-book with Silvana. Thank you, Silvana, for taking such great care of Jackson!”
About: We are Farah and Tommy, an engaged couple living in Palo Alto and looking for more time with animals! We are trusted dog and cat sitters for our friends and family, but we recently thought to give Rover a try. Message us if your pet needs some extra love and attention while you take care of yourself! One of our favorite things to do is go on walks together. We always joke and say we should be pet owners, and we probably will have our own one day. We walk daily during our lunch breaks and each evening after work. We’d love to take your pet with us and explore new neighborhoods! We live in a house with a private fenced backyard. We have no pets in our house and we plan to take care of one pet at a time so we can give them our full attention and make sure they are comfortable
“We used Ana and Mark for a month, while our kitchen got remodeled. The were awesome: always trying to make the experience work for us and for our dog. They deeply care about dogs, are incredibly good natured and were clearly very kind, warm and caring with our dog.”
“Best sitter we've ever encountered for our dog with many needs for her happiness. Well she came home so happy and better yet tired from all the walks which takes a lot. He kept sending us photos of her so we knew she was having a great time. He really understood our dog for not only the needs but her wants. So lucky to have found him.”
About: I grew up with the sweetest Shih Tzu in the world named Dak (a small computer chip). And I think my style of pet care came from taking care of him. I was attentive and gave him lots of love. He loved driving in the car with me, actually :) I have been pet sitting for friends and on other platforms for over 5 years in their homes. And I took care of a neighbor's bird way back in high school. For the most part I have specialized in cats and small to medium dogs. I also have a calm spirit that many animals are drawn to. So we can chill together for a long time. In addition, I'm responsible and respectful, caring and considerate not only for pets but also for owner's homes. I am able to communicate well and clearly and can problem solve to resolve any situation which might arise. In short, I have the know-how to be able to feed, entertain, clean up after, and love cats and dogs and their living spaces. And I can communicate well to their parents to keep them safe and happy while mom and dads are away. I currently work part-time teaching English online. I also am writing my doctoral dissertation. This means I am home a lot and very happy to spend lots of time with pets, even at my desk with me or curled up on the sofa. I strictly watch pets in their own homes. Firstly, because I am missionary and I've been staying temporarily in my parents house in North Carolina and now here with my brother in Palo Alto. Secondly, because I think pets are much happier if they can stay in their own homes and in familiar surroundings.
“Stacey has been incredible with our little dog Coco. She has been extremely communicative and sent us lots of pictures during our time away. Coco loved her time hanging out with Stacey’s dogs and having lots of play time. Thank you so much Stacey, we’ll definitely be booking again!”
“I’m so thankful to Maggie for taking care of my pup when I needed a last-minute sitter! She was responsive and sent me updates throughout the day, and my fur baby took to her very well. Amazing experience!”
“We had Rusty and Ruby join Jesse and Kimmy for daycare recently, and both our pups really had a great time!! They sent a lot of photos and updates throughout the day, which we really appreciated! Will definitely be using their services next time we need daycare and/or boarding:)”
About: Hi, I'm Kathryn! I’m an experienced, compassionate pet sitter offering personalized care, daily dog walks, and overnight stays. I work from home full-time as a journalist, which means your pup will have constant companionship, plenty of belly rubs, and lots of love. My passion for animals runs deep—I grew up at my mom’s dog daycare, where I was immersed in dog behavior training and care from an early age. We had labs growing up, and some of my favorite memories are of taking them on long adventures in the woods. These days, my partner and I share our home with our sweet shepherd mix, Ozzy. I’ve spent the last eight years caring for dogs while I lived all over the country. This is my first time on Rover, and I’m excited to build meaningful relationships with both pets and their people. I believe pet care should be accessible—not overpriced—so I strive to offer affordable, high-quality service that gives you peace of mind. We live in a beautiful, pet-friendly apartment with a secure back courtyard and quick access to local parks for playtime and walks. Your pet will be treated like family—safe, loved, and happy while you're away. For boarding and daycare requests, I will be joined by my own dog Ozzy. If your dog prefers not to be around a young dog, then it may not be a fit. Looking forward to connecting! As a journalist who works from home, I’m lucky to have a flexible schedule—and I love using it to give animals the attention, care, and fun they deserve. With tenderness, love, and dedicated attention, I focus on creating a safe, comfortable environment tailored to your pet’s unique needs. I can’t wait to meet your wonderful companion and make them feel right at home!
About: I had 3 small dogs when I was younger and they passed away due to old. I currently have two dogs, one is pit bull and husky mixed and a puppy Yorkie tierrier. Both of them are super high energy. Love to play with them, they love walking, to the beach, to the park and love taking bath! I’ve taken care of my friend’s dogs as well. I work as a paraprofessional at an elementary school. I will have free time during the summer to take your dog to walk, sitting, and boarding. I have a fenced backyard, I have two dogs. One dog is outside and one dog is inside the house. My small dog can play with your fur baby company.
About: I am taking a break from work and have the time to house sit and check in as well as board. I have done Rover for a few years now and have worked at dog boarding facilities. I am able to walk your fur babies in the morning and in the evening. I have experience with medication and injections for whom are needed. I have starting training experience and hope to learn more while watching my fur child Ruffles grow and enjoy life. It is true that Each pet has his/her own characteristics, so I try to find way to connect and gain there trust in anyway I can. I understand all pets have different characteristics and I will do everything possible to get to know your pet. I understood pets are a huge part of our familyand that is how they will be treated with love, understanding and compassion. Pets are truly men's best friend, and one that is always there to make our life so much exciting and fun. I can say at the moment I am able to fit any pet into mine and my own pet’s routine! Ruffles gets along with children , any size 🐶 dog and adults! I am trying to board only one pet at a time with my own pet at home just to be in the safer side. However, once your pet is at my home, he or she becomes part of the family instantly. They are allowed on top of furniture. My Ruffles is a non-caged dog but I do own a cage.
“Courtney is so great with Arthur! Arthur is always excited to see her and she keeps me updated throughout the day of their adventures. My little boy always comes home happy after a day with Courtney.”

We are so happy we found Jesse and Kimmy! We were looking for trustworthy dog sitters, and we truly couldn’t be happier. From the very beginning, Jesse and Kimmy made us feel safe, comfortable, and confident that our babies were in the best hands. 🥹❤️ We really appreciate how kind and caring they have been, and especially how they took the time to listen to all of our babies’ needs. They mean the world to us, so finding people who understand how important they are to us and genuinely want to give them the best means so much.
We thank Renz for his meticulous care for our puppy.We had booked for a concert few months back and got our puppy Forrest few weeks back to our home, Renz came up with helping hands and great experience for Forrest. In few hours, Forrest got attached to him and felt very comfortable and happy. Thank you Renz for the great care and experience.
I don't think I could possibly ever convey just how amazing Courtney is! I was in town for a week for work and my dog is super attached to me and so when I gave her to Courtney she was shaking like a leaf at first. Within the first couple hours Courtney sent me pictures of her having a grand old time with another dog when she brought her back, she was excited to see me and then immediately went back to Courtney! Lol. That night, I was laying on the bed talking on the phone and my dog was next to me and literally fell asleep on top of me she was so tired from having a great day. The next morning, she was pulling so hard on the leash to get to her when she came to pick her up but I just let her go. It gave my mind such ease to know she was in such good hands. And Courtney doesn't advertise it much but man she sent so many pictures and they were just gold, every single one of them. It made me really really happy to see all the things she did throughout the day and to see just how happy and relaxed and playful she was. I'm actually really sad that work is over and I left town because I know that she's really going to miss Courtney. Also Roland her husband was really great as well and my dog just loved both of them. A 100% trust them completely and know they're in great hands and that they love them like their own!!!
I'm so grateful to have such experienced energetic-pup owners watching over my little gal during the day. My pup loves playing with Laker and Nesse. They clearly take such good care of my puppy and puppy is SO EXCITED when she realizes where we're headed. Barely a goodbye from pup at the door.
I knew my dog would have a good day from the moment I dropped her off. This was also the first time she came back not over weight. I appreciate that Yun & Lina were able to entertain her without using all her treats. And I got a mid-day update that helps me know that my pup was having a good day.
From the moment we had our meet and greet, we knew John would be amazing with our dogs! He is one of the sweetest people we have met and took amazing care of Rusty and Ruby throughout the day! John communicates really fast and well l, and sends lots of photos throughout their stay :D we know Rusty and Ruby will be looking forward to their next stay with John!!
Ying is such a kind and caring individual who very obviously loves working with the dogs. She gave my dog so much love and attention, I felt good about leaving her there. My early morning shift required an early morning drop off time, which Ying agreed to without hesitation. I would trust her completely and she has an amazing setup for the dogs!
Five stars for Raina! This 10 year old has a remarkable gift for animal care. She and her father Mel provided excellent care for our dog Rani over the weekend. What stood out most was Raina’s genuine passion for dogs and her sensitive, attentive approach. Rani returned home calm and happy, and was eager to see Raina and Mel the very next weekend. That level of comfort and trust is best environment we would have asked for. Raina’s caring nature and natural ability with animals make her an outstanding dog sitter. We feel confident leaving our dog with her and the family!
Super sweet family! Our dog was raised with a toddler so it was nice to have kids for her to be with since we don't have any of our own. Normally our dog is nervous about new places. She ran into the house like it was her own. Angela was patient with me being this was our very 1st Rover experience. I had a lot of issues with the website. Kangwoong took care of JuJu as soon as she rushed through the door to play with their daughter. The updates were timely as if Angela could tell when I was missing our little pup. And the whole family came to say goodbye when it was time to leave. Small gestures that mean a lot! She must have had a good day as she slept on the ride home & passed out a little before her usual bedtime in a deep sleep. This morning she woke up on her back stretched out basically saying, "I am living a good life!" She seemed very happy with her stay & she was the right amount of tired. Thank you so much to the entire family for making our first experience an awesome one!
We had a late-night, last minute need for a sitter for our 9-week old puppy. Crystal immediately and enthusiastically responded and the whole experience could not have been smoother. It was obvious our puppy received excellent care and lots of affection. Thank you Crystal!
Here’s a polished version you could send or post: I honestly couldn’t have raised Miguel without Olga. She has been a huge part of his life since he was a puppy, and there is no one I trust more to care for him. Knowing he was with someone who genuinely loved him and treated him like family gave me complete peace of mind. As I prepare to leave California, one of the hardest goodbyes will be saying goodbye to Olga. Miguel is going to miss his time with her and all of his pup friends, and I’m going to miss knowing he’s in such caring and capable hands. Finding someone trustworthy to care for your dog is incredibly difficult these days, but Olga is truly one of a kind. She is reliable, compassionate, attentive, and treats every dog as if they were her own. If you’re looking for an amazing dog sitter, I cannot recommend her highly enough. We are so grateful for everything she has done for Miguel and our family. ❤️🐾
