“Claire has been watching our two solders for years and our friend’s pets too - she is simply the best…reliable, communicative, and an absolute animal lover!”


“Kristina was amazing! Maisey is a big girl with a lot of energy and a decent amount of leash reactivity. Kristina kept her entertained and had no problem taking her out on long walks! She sent lots of pictures and updates, helped take in packages that were delivered and even helped fix my loose doorknob!! Would absolutely hire Kristina again in the future!”


“Gisselle is phenomenal! She takes wonderful care of Nala (and all of Nala’s extra needs), sends lots of great updates, and is also very conscientious and takes great care of the apartment. Thank you!”


“Alex was absolutely wonderful with my cat! I had a family event days after my cat had to have surgery but I felt confident leaving her with Alex. They cuddled and hung out all day and Alex administered medication. Also very easy communication!”


“Viv took great care of Memo and sent frequent updates. I think Memo was a bit more nervous than usual because we had just been out of town the week before, but Viv took the time to gain Memo's trust with treats and playtime. Our place was also super clean when we got back from our week away, it was so welcome to come back to a clean home. Thank you so much Viv!”


“Aspen took great care of my older pup and my apartment. She sent me great pics and videos while I was gone and my dog looked like he was having a ball. She clearly loves dogs and I’d definitely have her watch Chip again.”


“Akiko was wonderful! It was her first stay with our dog, but he felt comfortable with her immediately. We definitely look forward to having come again.”


“Aoife watched my home, my dog and my cat for a week. She was conscientious, attentive and communicative. And my animals loved her! I would definitely hire her again and I would highly recommend her to other pet parents. Thanks Aoife!”


“Ashley took fantastic care of our senior cat who requires oral medication and our home. She sent plenty of updates and photos. Our cat was a huge fan. 😊”


“Angela was wonderful! She took such great care of Chowder—sending us frequent updates and adorable photos and videos throughout the weekend. It was clear that Chowder was happy and comfortable the whole time she was with her. We came home to a clean house and an even happier pup. We’d love to have Angela sit for us again anytime!”


“We've used Loretta a few times now for week long vacations. She's responsive and always takes great care of our fur babies. Importantly this last time my wife had left some important medication at home and Loretta quickly it got it sent out for next day delivery !! What a life saver !.”


About: I grew up owning and training dogs, mostly German Sherpards, which made me comfortable around all types of dogs. I am trained to teach your dog commands such as sit, stay, wait and heel. Due to my experience with bigger & sick dogs I am able to effectively calm an excited dog down during a walk and I know how to get creative when it comes to giving your doggo their medication. I believe a dog is an extension of their own and should be treated with the upmost respect, care and love. My schedule is flexible, I am available in the mornings, afternoons and mid evenings. I am currently in between jobs and have a lot of time during the week to care for your doggie. I have a fenced yard which is perfect for your dog to play in, I do not have carpeted floors which is beneficial in case there is an accident. I am also able to crate tracing your dog.

“We booked with Emily for a long stay with our two pets. She takes them on some fun adventures and sends plenty of updates! She is a trustworthy sitter that we would recommend to anyone!”


“Tobin took excellent care of our sweet old dog, as well as our home, while we were away. Our house was in perfect order when we returned, and most importantly our dog was happy!”


“Allissa went above and beyond to help out with my puppies (that are a handful!) and my senior dog. She was punctual, communicative and allowed me to take a break knowing that my dogs are well cared for. I couldn't have asked for a more caring sitter - we were lucky to have her help our family!”


“Really appreciated that Ariel took the time to come over beforehand to do a meet & greet! Ariel has a great calming energy - grateful she was available to take care of Studley.”


“Ben took good care of my elderly dog and two cats at my home. He sent me regular updates and made me feel at ease. I would definitely hire him again.”


“Shannon was wonderful! We did a meetup prior to sitting so she could learn about Sadie prior to staying with her. She was very communicative while sitting and it was clear Sadie was having a great time. She also took excellent care of our house. Would 100% recommend her!”


“Wonderful experience with Aleta. She was always super prompt to respond during the booking process, came to my house beforehand to meet my critters, and left my home in great shape, even stripping the sheets she slept on and starting a load of wash (which I hadn’t asked her to do). She sent me periodic pictures of my pets so I knew everything was ok and she took care of the other things I needed (mail, garbage). I completely endorse her and will book again next time! Thank you Aleta!”


“Sophia did great with our pets! We have a small, very anxious and behaviorally challenged dog and she immediately took to Sophia and spent a lot of time cuddled up with her. She’s on a special diet and takes medication and Sophia had no issues with this. We also have two cats who I think eventually warmed up to her - cats are fickle. She was a great house guest, communicator, and treated our pets like her own. I would highly recommend Sophia.”

Outer Richmond pet parents share their Rover experiences
was so very relieved to book Tobin last minute to watch my Jimmy boy for the weekend. He was able to spend most of the weekend with him, and put me at ease. He was punctual, kept in contact and my house was exactly as I left it. Thanks Tobin!!!

Shannon was wonderful! We did a meetup prior to sitting so she could learn about Sadie prior to staying with her. She was very communicative while sitting and it was clear Sadie was having a great time. She also took excellent care of our house. Would 100% recommend her!

We loved having Julia pet sit for us! She was great with our 4-month old puppy, taking him on multiple walks a day, adventures to the beach, nighttime cuddles, and sending updates to us while we were away. We will absolutely book Julia again!

Ben took good care of my elderly dog and two cats at my home. He sent me regular updates and made me feel at ease. I would definitely hire him again.

2nd amazing stay for our Aussie Rocky with Jordan. Truly appreciated her detailed daily updates and keeping him active and entertained throughout the day. Rocky seems to have bonded really well with Jordan and wasn't even overly protective or barky when she came over after we had left. We're looking forward to working with Jordan again whenever we need to be out of town. She took great care of our place while we were gone as well. She gives us complete peace of mind when we're gone and that's really important to us. She is highly recommended!

Allissa went above and beyond to help out with my puppies (that are a handful!) and my senior dog. She was punctual, communicative and allowed me to take a break knowing that my dogs are well cared for. I couldn't have asked for a more caring sitter - we were lucky to have her help our family!

Abigail is fantastic. Trustworthy (this is the first time I’ve had a Rover sitter in my house) and great with my dog. I spent no time worrying about how my dog was doing while on vacation which is the ultimate goal. She kept in touch and sent photos and videos. Can’t recommend her highly enough.

Celine is great as always! She send us frequent pictures and updates so we know Mixtape is in good hands.

Ashley is a true animal lover, she took care of our dog and cat, both of which were very happy and healthy when we returned from our 12 day trip. It was the most calm and normal ive ever seen them after a pet sitting! This made me feel really good about leaving them behind this time. Ashley was communicative and sent lots of cute pictures! She left our house clean and organized which is nice to come home to after vacation!

Maeza was an excellent guardian for our Joey and of our home. Thank you and looking forward to next time!!

Dionie did a great job taking care of Prancis and providing updates. It was a last minute request but he was still able to come by and meet us before which I really appreciate. Prancis is a senior dog and he made her feel comfy and relaxed.

Aspen was the easiest to work with and I felt completely at ease leaving my pups in her care. She sent updates throughout the day and was great at communicating. Looking forward to having her back in my home!

Sonia is our go-to person for our dog Roger! She provides timely updates about their daily activities and provides him with tons of great attention and care. 😍

Savannah is kind, caring, and flexible, simply the best! We are grateful that she accommodated our two cats for about two weeks. She sent us reports and pictures from time to time, and it was perfect timing, too! We recommend her and also want to come back to her.

Julia was a great sitter, and we really appreciated the time she spent with our dog while we were away. Her flexibility and willingness to help out was wonderful, and we look forward to booking her services again soon.

Zach was a wonderful sitter for my anxious dog, Bowie! Zach dedicated lots of time to hang out with Bowie and take him on long walks. Zach was a great communicator and put my mind at ease while away. Bowie was a huge fan and is excited to have Zach watch him again.

Caity is wonderful! She took the time to get to know my dog and is so patient with his quirks. He is always so excited when she comes to walk him or stay with him. I just know he was loved and cared for while I was out of town!

Alexandra was an amazing cat sitter! She kept me updated throughout the stay, sent plenty of pictures, and stayed in touch the entire time. My cat was happy and well cared for, and the house was left spotless. Highly recommend her!

Sophia was very attentive to detail and eager to make sure Hazelnut had everything she needed. I could tell from the photos that Hazey was very happy as they explored town and spent time at the beach. Thank you!

Timothy was super thoughtful, communicative, and of course great with our dog! This was our first time hiring a pet setter and Timothy made the process really easy and reassuring. During our initial meet and greet, he asked questions that made it clear he was really interested in learning about Ludo’s personality/needs and how to best take care of him based on those specifics. When our schedules shifted and one of us came home early, he was adaptable to that change. I’d 100% work with Timothy again. 🌻
