“Ashley is awesome! She came to my home and took care of my brand new puppy, who has quite a demanding schedule. I was a super anxious new puppy mom and she put me at ease, kept me updated, and was super flexible and accommodating. Basil loved her and I felt like he was in great hands. Absolutely recommend!”


“Words can never express my gratitude for Trina! After going on a camping trip and unexpectedly being out of range of cell service I had great comfort in knowing my fur child was with her. She went above and beyond to care and help manage while life took sits twists and turns. Highly recommend”


“Dennis was a wonderful house and pet sitter for us while we were away for a week. He took good care of our two dogs and two cats so we could actually have a relaxing vacation, knowing they and our home were in good hands. We will definitely book him again.”


“There aren’t enough words to express just how attentive and amazing Quishu is: Positive, dynamic personality with an ability to get zen when needed. She’s the kind of personality our beagles need. She followed all our doggie care and home instructions, it was such peace of mind. She sent frequent photos and videos which showed us that our adopted and often timid beagles trusted her, felt safe with her and were actually being their true goof ball selves. Most sitters think they’ll try to “fix” their issues which never works and creates a tense dynamic, but Qishu didn’t appear to judge us for all our instructions and expectations. She respected our requested level of care and the beagles and her bonded. Thank you Qishu!!”


“This was our second time trusting Nicky to watch our dogs, and she did a fabulous job once again. During our week-and-a-half international trip, she kept us updated with plenty of photos and updates—our dogs always looked happy and healthy. When I returned, the house was tidy, the dogs were freshly brushed, their eyes were clean, and their water bowls were full. I couldn’t have asked for more peace of mind while being so far away. I have no complaints and would absolutely hire her again!”


“Matt is always great with our dog, Elliott. He was very responsible with Elliott's medication schedule and attentive to his emotional needs. I'll be re-booking Matt for our next trip as well. Thank you, Matt!”


“Victoria was very calm, collected and kind. She was flexible with our last minute needs and able to handle our very high energy doberman puppy with ease. Will be booking again - 10/10!”


“Charlii was amazing during the 3 weeks she house sat for us and our 3 pets. She sent daily updates and pictures/videos and took terrific care of both our animals and our home. She is calm and sweet, and extremely communicative. This was truly the best house/pet sitting experience we had. We couldn't recommend her more!”


“Meshaal took great care of our 55 lb pup and our cat in our home while we were on vacation! They were thorough in preparing for the job, very communicative while we were away, and followed all of our feeding and exercise instructions. We would definitely have Meshaal sit for us again!”

“Elisa was tremendous with our senior shepherd. She was communicative and engaged from the moment we met her and throughout her stay with our dog. Our dog had the best weekend and was so well loved. Elisa was also kind enough to take great care of our place and take in packages. What a great experience and we look forward to working with her again!”


“We were nervous about leaving our doggie + home with a sitter for the first time, but Aman totally put those nerves to rest! He's incredibly responsive, thoughtful and responsible. Clearly loves dogs. I think he's honestly more careful taking care of our dog than we are sometimes – which is exactly what I look for in a sitter!! Not only did he take care of our pup, but he also helped take care of our home while we were gone (4 nights!) by watering our garden, bringing packages insides, and even taking out the trash cans on trash day. We really appreciate Aman's thoughtfulness and would definitely book with him again!”


“I had Esteban house sit to look after my big, rambunctious dog Sable for 6 days. Not only did Esteban take amazing care of my dog, he left the house in incredible condition. All my dog’s needs were met, and he sent regular pupdates. I’m a very anxious person and it was my first time using Rover, but Esteban put me at ease and I am so glad I decided to go with him. I would 100% use Esteban again if I ever leave town. I believe it’s safer and easier on my dog than boarding her at a dog hotel. You da man, Esteban!”


“Fuliang was always quick to respond and took great care of our dog. He was super flexible and even came early and stayed later than planned to accommodate our flight schedule.”


“Honestly could not have found a better pet sitter! She really took care of our little crew like they were her own. We came back to stress free, happy pets, which for our needy little lovea isn’t always the norm. Joanna was beyond considerate and sent lots of pictures which showed just how well cared for they all were. Cannot recommend highly enough!”


“Tia is an absolute gem of a human! My babies adored her. She was attentive, caring, and so sweet! I have an XXXL dog + a medium o up & a cat & she spent time with each of them, walked the pups twice a day, and made time to play with my kitten. 10/10 recommend- she’s fantastic!”


“Marina is great! She house/dog sat my two small older dogs for three nights. She is/was dependable, trustworthy and respectful of my house with all its little quirks. If I had a question, she answered right away and sent pictures. The house was as clean as if I'd never left. I was able to enjoy my vacation with no worries about my little dogs. My dogs were very calm and happy when I returned. I doubt they missed me at all. I would definitely hire Marina again.”


“The perfect match for our active sweetheart. Imani did a great job caring for our pittie mix who loves life and people. She provided all necessary care for her and even went above and beyond with a couple of house hold chores that she proactively saw and did. Would definitely use her again - Ava loved her!”


About: Active sitter who grew up with rescue dogs and understands their needs with both empathy and care. Experienced in house‑sitting for dogs—matching their routines while you're away. Energetic and ready for jogs or scenic nature drives to keep tails wagging. Also have experience house sitting for cats. Am available for early morning/evening walks in Oakland; able to house sit in the Danville/San Ramon area as I work nearby! Weekends are very available. Unable to offer services in my own home, but understand the importance of keeping dogs on leashes in non-fenced areas, and making sure that all doors, potential areas to escape are closed! In addition I will ensure that any potential hazards are prevented, and that areas are clean and sanitary for pets. I also can provide frequent updates and photos if you would like

Chris is an amazing dog sitter, who I feel completely at ease with leaving Jojo pup with while I'm away. Chris watched Jojo for 7 nights while I was on an international hiking trip with intermittent service. He sends the best photos, takes Jojo for great walks and provides excellent communication during the sit. My house was just as I'd left it upon my return. I look forward to continuing to work with Chris. Thank you!!

Sarah watched my sometimes leash reactive dog for 7 nights while I was away on an international hiking trip with intermittent service. I felt completely at ease while traveling, due to Sarah's professionalism, amazing communication, and the way she clearly connects with and understands Jojo pup. It's such a pleasure to work with Sarah.

Elisa was great! Very conscientious and comprehensive with her daily updates! She clearly bonded very well with our dog, who seemed to be looking for her when he woke up the next day. The kitchen also seemed to be even cleaner than we left it. We've already booked with Elisa again, and highly recommend her!

Navaeh was amazing with Franklin! She was very responsive and made sure I got daily updates and photos of him. She was super sweet and Franklin loved his time with her. I felt super comfortable leaving my cat with her and would definitely have her stay again! Thank you so much for giving him so much love and care!!

We had a great experience with Cara. She was very mature, reliable and responsible. She clearly took really good care of the house as well. The thing I appreciated most was how communicative and responsive she was. She really listened and was always quick to reply as well as send pictures 😊

Issel has watched my dog and 2 cats twice now. She is very responsive and takes great care of them. I leave a bunch of directions about their feeding, etc. She sends me pics of them which i appreciate as I miss them.Everyone looks happy when I get home. The house is just as I left it when I return. I will not hesitate to use Issel again!

Alix was so communicative and reliable! Even when I was dealing with flight delays and difficulties scheduling my trip, I felt safe leaving my dog Sam with her. And Sam clearly loves Alix! My dog escaped out my door to try and greet Alix when she returned my keys.

Irina stayed at my place to take care of my kitty while I was away for the week. She was so sweet and gentle with my cat, and sent truly the most gorgeous pictures and videos every day. It was so reassuring to see my kitty snuggle up with her and be so relaxed, confident, and at ease with her. This our second time working with Irina and I will definitely book again!
