“Halle takes care of my cat Mocha. She is always very responsive and accommodating. I highly appreciate she shares with me by text her observations when she comes over on my cats health I could be worried about + shares how her visit went :) I therefore highly recommend her.”

“Lauren was fantastic with our pups. She took great care of both of them individually and helped ease my nervous one to be able to go potty. She played with my energetic one and even wiped paws when they were done. Not to mention sent detailed notes and photos. Would give more stars if I could! Thanks so much Lauren! ❤️”

About: I love all animals and care for them as if they were my own babies.🐾 I’ve had many dogs and cats in my family over the years as well as cared for friends and family’s pets. Growing up on a farm with pet rabbits, chickens, birds, fishes, turkeys, and pigs gave me a lot of expirence and all kinds of animals and deepened my love for them. I’m also an active person who loves walking especially with dogs and playing in parks! Prices are negotiable for first time customers :) I work remotely so I am pretty flexible and usually have plenty of time to play with your pets and give them lots of attention! 🥰 I always keep an eye out on every pet I care for to notice any signs of changes in their behaviors and will let the pet parent know immediately if I see something that looks off.
“Ozcan was totally great! He sent lots of photos and I could tell our dogs were having a great time. He was on time and listened to our instructions perfectly. Thank you for taking care of our pups! We will definitely reach out again in the future.”

About: I have extensive experience with dogs of all sizes, ages, and breeds. I walk our family’s senior dog daily, taking him through the neighborhood parks and on beach walks at Crissy Field. I also walk my aunt’s golden when I visit and have experience walking a neighbor’s small dog when they were out of town. I have fostering experience, having cared for a two year old German Shepherd for two months. During that time, I took her on daily walks, administered her medicine, and helped her socialize with other dogs. I also fostered a nine week old puppy for two weeks, providing weekly baths with her special shampoo to address her skin condition. My background includes caring for dogs at different life stages and handling special needs, making me a reliable and compassionate caregiver for your furry family members. Pet care is a fundamental part of my daily routine. I walk our senior family dog at least once a day, typically in the morning or midday, and again in the evening or at night. These walks help ensure he gets regular exercise and companionship, fitting seamlessly into my daily schedule. I have a small backyard where pets can enjoy some outdoor time. Additionally, I have a friendly senior golden retriever who can keep your dog company and provide socialization and comfort. My approach to pet care, prioritizes, safety, trust, and creating a calm environment, whether in my home or yours.
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and currently own a 1-year-old Australian Shepherd, so I have plenty of experience caring for high-energy breeds and young dogs. Because my dad bred dogs throughout my childhood, I was exposed to caring for puppies and dogs with a variety of personalities from a young age. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, administering basic medications, reinforcing training routines, and providing lots of exercise and enrichment. As a pet owner myself, I know how much trust it takes to leave your dog in someone else’s care, and I treat every pet as if they were my own! I’m currently a graduate student with a flexible schedule, which means I have plenty of availability throughout the day for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always follow owners instructions closely, maintain pets’ normal routines, and will provide regular updates with photos. I have experience handling high-energy dogs through raising my Australian Shepherd, and I’m comfortable with crate training, administering basic medications, and reinforcing training routines!
“Angela took great care of my boys while I was away for a weekend trip. My doggies are usually pouty when I leave them for more than a few hours and they acted like I never left! Angela was also great with communication and very prompt to respond.”

About: Hey, I'm Taylor! Loving animals is not my whole personality, but it's close. I've been taking care of dogs big and small since I was a kid, and done more serious pet sitting and walking for friends & neighbors since 2017. Pictured is Wheezy, the love of my life: a half Boston Terrier half Pitty I rescued around 5 years ago and nursed back to health. Holler with any questions! I am a journalist and work weird hours! Generally available for afternoon and evening walks both week days and weekends on a case by case basis!. I have a fenced garden area where my pup loves to tromp around. I also live very close to Alamo Square Park, where we love to walk and play if you're comfortable with your pup being social. I've trained Wheezy to return when off-leash but never let other pups off leash without owner permission. In the home, I've got a large crate if needed.

“Katie is amazing - my kitties love her so much and are always well cared for! Katie communicated quickly and lets you know if anything comes up and goes above and beyond to make sure pets are taken care of and happy. I cannot recommend her highly enough!!”


“Marie did a wonderful job taking care of my car while I was away. She kept me updated on her status and took thoughtful care in making sure my cat got her medicine:)”

“Celine did such an incredible job with our dog Harley. She was beyond patient and caring. We look forward to having her back. Thank you SO much Celine! A+ work! So communicative too!”

Also occasionally available on weekends and evenings if needed. I can’t watch any fur babies in my apartment because the lease restricts it :( which is why I’m on rover!

About: I grew up in a farm town surrounded by animals and had pets of my own my whole childhood. I whole days with neighbors’ and family’s pets, not because I had to, but because I just really loved being around them. I never got paid. I just loved it. That hasn’t changed. This is my way of staying connected to animals and giving them the kind of care I always have: unconditional, attentive, and full of energy. Your dog will be fed, walked, played with, and absolutely happy and tuckered out by the time you see them again. That’s my promise. I don’t have a pet right now because my landlord won’t allow it, which is exactly why I’m here. I’d love for pet care to be part of my daily life again. I’m active and love having a buddy with me out and about, but I can just as easily take it easy and lounge with a pet who needs some relaxation. I match their energy and needs. Selfishly, being around animals brings me joy and energy. Unselfishly, I genuinely care about giving pets what they need, and sending them home happier and healthier than I found them. Respect and communication. When I’m in a client’s home, I treat it with full respect. I follow your rules for your space and your pet, communicate immediately if anything comes up, and leave everything cleaner than I found it. You’ll always know what’s going on. I take the responsibility seriously and carry myself like a professional, because that’s what you deserve when you’re trusting someone with your home and pet.
About: Hi, I'm Femke. A lifelong animal lover, I’ve been the go-to pet sitter and dog walker for friends, family, and neighbors for almost a decade. What started as a hobby quickly became something I couldn’t imagine not doing. Now, I’m excited to turn my passion for dogs into a full-time career, preparing for a degree in Cynology (dog behavior) next year. With hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments, I’ve developed a calm, patient, and intuitive approach. I’ve walked high-energy pups who need structure and stimulation, cared for seniors who require slower walks and medication, and provided companionship to anxious or shy dogs who just need someone gentle and understanding. I’m confident in handling leash reactivity, administering basic medications, and keeping routines consistent to help dogs feel safe and secure. My focus is always on building trust, so your dog feels comfortable with me, and fully enjoys the time we spend together. I’m studying part-time to prepare for my Cynology (dog behavior) degree next year, and have no other major commitments - your dog gets my full attention. My days revolve around walks, drop-ins, and overnight stays, so I’m available on weekdays, weekends, and (most) holidays. Your pet’s safety is my top priority. I take the time to build trust with each dog, starting with a meet-and-greet to understand their routines, triggers, and preferences. During walks, I always use secure leashes and harnesses and stick to safe, familiar routes. I will not do off-leash unless in client-approved spaces and with your explicit consent. When caring for pets in your home, I maintain your routines, respect your space, and provide real-time updates with photos and notes, so you’re always in the loop. My goal is to give you peace of mind and give your dog(s) the care and companionship they deserve.

Joslyn was wonderful. I had to go out of town last minute, and was worried about leaving my 2 young kitties. A few of my cat gadgets broke while I was gone, and she ended up having to clean up their mess, but she was so gracious. Would absolutely trust her to watch my babies again!

Rachel is amazing!! She is thoughtful and responsive and clearly cares about my kitten! My girl also obviously has the best time playing with Rachel and is happy to have her come by. Rachel’s updates are thorough and I feel complete peace of mind when traveling. Couldn’t recommend her as a cat sitter enough!

Amazing care for my cats. I will definitely be a repeat customer. She went above and beyond and ensured my cats were happy and healthy, being diligent about food, water, and even socializing with them. she is an excellent communicator. I would highly recommend Marianna
Xinyuan was so reliable, kind, and meticulous. Highly recommended! She sent several photos and videos after every visit and was so caring, taking the time to play with my cat who was lonely the week I was away. She also vacuumed up all the tracked litter! Nice to come home to clean floors.

Liz was an absolute DREAM! She took such good care of my cat while I was gone for 2 weeks. I was so nervous to be gone for so long, but Liz put me at ease with her thoughtful questions, updates and pictures she sent. Liz fed my cat, played with her, and took care of her litter and water exactly how I preferred. She even noticed something in my apartment, let me know and handled it. She left my apartment very clean and I truly could not recommend her more!! I will definitely be booking with her again :)

Michelle is great! Did a fantastic job watching over our cat Moza with daily visits while we were away for the longest time we had been away from her. Michelle followed all care instructions great and we received daily updates and pics. Really cared for our cat and went above and beyond in communication and play time. Would highly recommend! Thanks very much!

Leaving another review for Hillary because she has been absolutely amazing and so flexible with our kitties for multiple last minute requests! One of our kitties is on chemo and needs multiple meds, and it’s such a relief to have someone as trustworthy, kind, and careful as Hillary to check on him while we’re away.
