“Dave is such a gem! So lucky to have found him. He’s super reliable, friendly, and wonderful with my 2 yo black lab Izzy. He can even handle her leashed zoomies when they walk on the beach and loses her mind with happiness. I know Izzy loves Dave b/c she brings him a toy when he picks her up (her love language and something she only does with her favorite people). Highly recommend!”

“Wei was lovely and took great care of our puppy. She was patient with him as he got used to being with someone new and got him comfortable around the city. Highly recommend!”

“Duygu has been taking our dog for weekly walks and keeping her company to break up the work day. Our dog does not like being home alone and it is such a relief to have Duygu to care for her and keep us informed about how her day is going. Our dog loves her and she is very patient with her various quirks. Duygu really is a great communicator, very punctual and thoughtful!”

About: I am passionate about being a sitter for dogs and cats because I am very caring, and nurturing, ensuring each pet feels cherished and secure. Pets are considered family, and I give them lots of love and attention. I have raised my Australian Shepherd since he was an 8-week old puppy, so I am very familiar with dog training, providing playtime, and ensuring both mental and physical activities to keep them happy and healthy. I pay close attention to their needs, demands, and behavioral differences, providing tailored care and understanding. With experience in administering medication and offering extra attention to animals with special needs or disabilities, I am well-equipped to handle any situation and provide the best possible care. My patience and dedication ensure that every pet receives the attention and love they deserve. Taking great care of your pet is my #1 priority. I am home all day so I am available at any time. I have my own fur baby who is pretty chill during the day. I have a large fenced yard and a fun Aussie at home to play with. I can also crate your dog, for naps and quiet time, if that is preferred. For dogs, I live very close to areas where they can walk, sniff, or play around such as Golden Gate Park, Fort Funston, the beach, and enclosed dog parks.
About: I have had my own dogs for the last 25 years and am the aunt to many dogs in the family and in the neighborhood. All the pups know I carry around treats! I have experience with a wide range of breeds. I am a very active person so your dog is sure to go on many walks followed by naps! I am retired so I am available whenever. With my last dog, a yellow Labrador named Kesha, I went on about 4 walks a day. My house is two levels and your dog is free to roam around as they wish. I have a backyard on the ground level so if hosting a senior dog, they won't have to use the stairs.
About: I’m at Fort Funston or Pine Lake Park or one of the many petlands nearby. I’ve been a dog friend with my own dog family for over 20 years. We talk to each other frequently I’m retired and flexible, able to provide loving care with relatively little notice. I generally go on two longer walks each day where the dogs exercise me I have a fenced back yard in the Parkside/Sunset and own our home with my spouse and Zeke, our beagle mix. It is safe and secure

“Responsive, on time, friendly. What more can you ask for when looking for someone to walk your fur baby? Sherian was great with Ziggy! The fact that he’s currently laying down passed out on the floor means he had a wonderful walk. 😊 If you’re looking for a walker, I highly recommend Sherian!”

About: Animals have been part of my life for as long as I can remember, and caring for them comes naturally to me. I grew up rescuing dogs of all breeds, ages, temperaments, and medical backgrounds, which taught me patience, compassion, foundational training skills, and the importance of tailoring care to each animal’s individual personality and needs. Over the years, I’ve also cared for friends’ pets, including dogs, cats, birds, and chameleon. My experience includes walks, drop-in visits, overnight stays, medication administration, and outdoor adventures. I currently share my home with two incredible pups and a kitten who thinks he's a dog! Adventures big and small are part of our routine, whether we're exploring a park, hitting the trails, spending a day at the beach, or relaxing at a pet-friendly café. Whether your dog is an energetic adventurer who loves exploring new trails, a social butterfly who enjoys long walks, or a couch-loving companion who just wants some company, I'll tailor my care to their personality, preferences, and routine so they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I know our pets are family, and trusting someone else to care for them is a big deal. My goal is to make that experience as stress-free as possible for both you and your pet. I'll respect their routines, give them plenty of attention and affection, and keep you in the loop with regular messages and photo updates while you're away. I cannot wait to connect and meet your loved one! My schedule is very flexible during the week and on weekends! Just to note, my four-leggeds would not interact with your pet unless discussed and boarding would be in your home! Safety, trust, and your pet’s comfort are always my priorities. I take the time to understand each pet’s personality, routines, triggers, and individual needs so I can provide attentive, personalized care in an environment where they feel secure. When caring for pets in your home, I respect your space and follow your instructions closely, from feeding schedules and exercise routines to medication administration and household rules. I’m mindful of secure doors, gates, leashes, and harnesses, and I take extra care during walks and outdoor adventures to keep pets safe. I also make sure pets have fresh water, a comfortable space to rest, and plenty of positive attention. Clear communication is important to me, too. I’ll keep you updated with messages and photos, let you know how your pet is doing, and reach out promptly if I have any concerns. My goal is for you to feel confident that your pet is receiving thoughtful, reliable care and that your home and their routines are being respected while you’re away.
“Roo was ecstatic to hang with Emily and play fetch when she came back for the second day of walking! Emily was an amazing communicator and easy to work with. Would love to use her again if schedules allow.”

About: Hello! My name is Jack. I grew up in the South Bay and just moved back on short notice after 12 years away in Seattle and NYC to help with some sudden family health issues. I’m looking to spend some time with some lovely animals while I look for a new job and tend to my family. I’ve lived with and loved both dogs and cats. I currently live with two cats (Batty and Bonky) but got my Rover start just after college primarily walking and sitting dogs. I love both equally! I promise to treat you, your pets and your home with the utmost respect, and am happy to provide any sort of verification or conversation to make you feel more comfortable. Thanks for your consideration :)

I am happy to accept requests during the week + weekends. I am prepared to use your space and mine to take care of your pets the best way possible. I typically want to get a tour/walk through of your pet's routine so I can completely prepared to care for them.
About: I’ve been caring for other people’s pets for most of my life, primarily for friends and family. I have experience with both dogs and cats and understand the importance of maintaining their routines and making sure they’re comfortable while their owners are away. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and take the responsibility of caring for them seriously. My schedule is flexible, and I’m happy to provide regular updates and photos throughout your trip. I’m self-employed and have a very flexible schedule, which makes it easy to fit pet sitting into my daily routine. I can generally adjust my work schedule to accommodate pets’ needs and spend plenty of time with them throughout the day. I provide pet sitting exclusively in clients’ homes, where pets can stay comfortable in their familiar surroundings and maintain their usual routines. I take the responsibility of caring for someone’s pets and home seriously and will always follow any instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications, and household care. I’m respectful of my clients’ homes, attentive to their pets’ needs, and happy to provide regular updates while they’re away.

“Aaron provided excellent care for our dog Honey. He walked her 6x over 2 weeks. Honey was timid the first couple of times, but Aaron was very patient with her while the trust grew. He’s very communicative and flexible which is greatly appreciated. We’ve already booked him for the next time we need dog walking services!”

About: Hello! I’ve been in the SF area for over 4 years now! I’m up for taking small and medium sized dogs on walks. I’ve done some dog walking when I was younger and am very persistent in watching dogs cues throughout a walk. I've taken care of cats since I was in high school. Many neighbors and family members have asked me numerous times to watch their cats! I have experience with both young and older cats. It can be hard to leave your cat at home, which I am very familiar with as I have a 2 cats of my own. I strive to make sure your cat feels loved and cared for by feeding them, changing water, cleaning their litter boxes, and lots of play time! In my free time, I volunteer at the SF SPCA where I help kittens and cats socialize and acclimate to human interaction. I currently work at Sutter Health CPMC as a music therapist, Monday through Fridays. I am available after 5:00pm on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday and available on most weekends. I’ll let each dog/cat take their time in getting to know and build trust with them as in order to take them for walks or have them interact/play with me. I give my cats extra play time especially at night/dusk as they are nocturnal animals and would do so if checking in with your cat in the evening. I respect the cat's space and environment, letting them lead whether how affectionate they want to be or how much space they need.
About: I’ve been an animal lover since I can remember! With all the different breads of cats and dogs I knew my best option was to try to work with all of them! I worked for a well known dog walking company in the marina for a while before I realized I wanted to do more 1x1 work with pups~ then I would be able to give each one the utmost care attention and fun they deserve! Separate of that I also took courses through SF Puppy prep and am familiar with basic training for any new pup owners looking for some more training/help😊 Dog walking is actually my fully time job so I am always looking for new pups to meet and hopefully add to my amazing pack!😊 My most common booking is for house sits whether it’s cats dogs or both! I typically ask each client to leave me a list of their pets day/night routine as far as food/playtime/walks/potty breaks/litter/meds etc. The more info for me the better so I can always give your pets the best care and they feel almost as comfortable as though you were home 😊
“Meridith was a pleasure to meet and work with. She is clearly used to caring for animals and was great with my energetic puppy. He was drawn to her immediately despite general skiddish behavior with new people. A real testament to Meridith’s ability to work with animals!”

About: Hi there! My name is Driana, and I’m a passionate dog lover living in San Francisco right near Golden Gate Park and Ocean Beach. Growing up, I had a sweet Shih Tzu, and later in life, I raised a Doberman from a tiny puppy all the way into adulthood. While I don’t currently own a dog of my own, caring for pups has always been a huge part of my life, and I’d love to share that love and attention with yours! My availability 🗓️️: - Mon – Sat: Open availability morning through evening! - Sundays: Available upon request with advance notice. - Flexibility: Work as a barista, but schedules come out a week in advance—so if you give me a heads up, I can easily build my shifts around your pet’s exact routine! Home Environment & Compatibility: - Prime Location: I'm located in the Outer Richmond, two blocks from both Golden Gate Park and Ocean Beach, giving us immediate access to great, safe walking trails and away from busy streets! - Quiet & Peaceful: I live with dog loving roommates, but to respect their space and our downstairs neighbors, my home is best suited for calm pups who aren't frequent barkers. Safety & Care: - Outdoors: Dogs are always kept securely on leash during park and beach walks. I also have a huge backyard for zoomies/potty breaks throughout the day. - Indoors: I ensure a tidy, dog-proofed space where your pup can relax safely, complete with frequent photo updates to keep you connected throughout their stay :)

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Outer Sunset
Aileen is the sweetest and the most gentle with our golden doodle. She comes to pick up our pup for her mid-day walks on busy work weeks. We always get cute pictures and updates on their walk! She’s a big help to our family and we appreciate her so much!

Due to sudden mobility issues my wife and I are experiencing, we needed a reliable, experienced dog walker for our high energy 3 year old Shepherd mix. We'd never hired a dog walker before and were a little apprehensive on how it would work out. We found Dave M. through Rover and couldn't be happier! Our dog seemed to take to him immediately and she comes back from their walks happy and tired. Dave gives off good "doggie vibes" and has been very flexible with his scheduling to fit us in on last minute walks. We've been very happy to have found him in our time of need!

I really cannot say enough good things about Genesis! She is so kind with dogs and communicative with humans! Our dog has a pretty high “stranger danger” factor, but she quickly came to like and trust Gen. Ursa (the dog) happily wags her way over to Gen when Gen arrives for walks. It’s a great thing. Do not hesitate to book walks with Gen!

We can't say enough good things about Bob! He watched our dog Boba for a full week while we were on vacation, and he truly went above and beyond. Boba is reactive and slow to warm up to new people, and Bob was incredibly patient with that. He made multiple visits beforehand just to help Boba get comfortable with him, and he really worked with us to find an approach that fit Boba's needs. We were pretty stressed going into this, and Bob made the whole thing so much easier. Boba did great while we were gone, and we came home to a happy, relaxed pup. Bob is thoughtful, reliable, and clearly cares about the dogs he works with.
