“Jacob provided exceptional care for our cats while we were away. His communication was great, with regular updates and photos, giving us peace of mind. Highly recommend for anyone needing a reliable and caring cat sitter!”
“Melina is WONDERFUL! She came in 3 days this week and each day did an INCREDIBLE JOB! She keeps me and my boyfriend super up to date with communication, videos, and pictures ❤️ If I have any questions, Melina responds immediately. And she follows any requests for Ivy (our pup) closely. Looking forward to having Melina come back to watch Ivy soon☺️”
“Jessica was communicative and friendly! I have one scaredy cat with special needs, & she handled him wonderfully. Both of my kitties were happy and well-taken care of while I was away. Knowing that Jessica was watching my pets helped me feel comfortable & relaxed. Will certainly book again!”
“Samanta is great! She communicates very clearly and over exceeds expectations! I had a few last minute trips and she accommodated me very well. I would highly suggest booking with her!”
“Stephanie is wonderful!! She is punctual, great personality and my dog loved her from the beginning. They seem to have a blast together! My dog seemed very happy in the photos she sent. Totally recommend her and will book with her again!”
“Kathy was very helpful and easy to work with, she took some great photos of my furbabe and followed all my instructions perfectly! I would be thrilled to book Kathy again.”
“Sydney popped over on somewhat short notice when we couldn’t quite align on timing with our usual house sitter. She sent lots of great photos and Sawyer was happy to have an afternoon buddy :)”
“Thomas has stepped in to help me after my dog suffered a surprise bout of IVDD. When I come home my puppers seem happy and well cared just as if they had been with me all day. I appreciate Thomas's experience with senior dogs and bladder expression. That was really important to me in my search for support. You can't go wrong with this Rover, friends. 12 stars!”
About: I've had dogs and cats my whole life (plus horses, goats, cows, chickens, guinea pigs and hamsters). The last 20 years I have had Frenchies and English bulldogs. Along the way I have also had chihuahua's, Rottweilers, pits, cattle dogs, American bulldogs as well as a number of rescue cats. I've adopted many from shelters, however, several showed up on my porch and adopted me. I am currently available 24/7. I can watch dogs in your home or mine. I am available to walk them on a set schedule, which I do with my dog regularly. I currently have a French bulldog, our day consists of reward based training/walks, endless love, healthy treats, enrichment toys, and hikes. I would like to offer this to other pets as well. I am understanding of any dogs special needs or diets. We run a routine program as far as food, feeding time and exercise. I will only board your dog(s)/cat(s) along with mine. I do not double book as I want to keep everyone safe and comfortable.
About: ***IMMEDIATE JACK LONDON SQ ONLY FOR WALKS/DROP-INS PLEASE *** Trust is everything, especially when it comes to caring for our pups! I believe ALL dogs are stars with their own unique "genre" (Punk, EDM, R&B, Rock, Pop, easy listening) and let's face it, this is how they crack us up on a daily basis! I believe positive reinforcement, but also Cesar's Way (exercise, discipline, affection) and include lots of playfulness in the process (solo or with my pup - your preference). I enjoy assisting in ongoing training (how to improve walking on a leash, how to look good for their "Dogs playing poker" portrait, etc) while in my care. Whether it be for a brief stay or a brisk walk (A tired dog is a happy dog!) I can't wait to meet your fluffy family member and help ease your mind while you are away from them. I have worked with dogs that may be fearful or have anxiety (many often confuse with being "aggressive" when this is not the case). Being attentive on our walks at all times is paramount...I'm not one who focuses on looking at my phone constantly (unless I'm taking pics of our walk to send to you!) while letting your pup pick up or eat something they shouldn't. Many thanks! I currently work from home and have flexibility to work with local dogs for walks/drop-ins in the Jack London Square area and boarding (near or far). I have a large fenced patio and is easy to monitor the fur monsters if they want to enjoy the outdoors a bit during their day.
About: Growing up in a dog-loving household, I developed a deep connection with canines from an early age. My proudest experience was raising my own corgi from puppyhood, learning all aspects of responsible pet ownership. This hands-on experience taught me everything from training and grooming to understanding unique breed characteristics. Combined with helping care for my parents' dogs, I've developed a comprehensive understanding of dog behavior, daily care routines, and the importance of consistent, loving attention. As a student with a flexible schedule, I'm available consistently on weekends and most weekday afternoons. I carefully plan my pet care commitments around my classes to ensure dedicated, unrushed time with each pet. I can provide morning walks, midday check-ins, and extended playtime sessions, always prioritizing the pets' routines and needs. I prioritize creating a safe and comfortable environment for every pet in my care. When visiting clients' homes, I follow their specific care instructions meticulously and maintain regular updates through photos and messages. I ensure all doors are secured, maintain a clean environment, and keep pets on their regular feeding and exercise schedules. I also have pet first-aid knowledge for added peace of mind.
About: I’ve lived around dogs and cats my entire life and have been the sole caretaker of my rescue Husky, Nyx, for the past two years now. I know firsthand the stresses of behavior issues, medications, and dietary restrictions. The stress when that routine that youve been cultivating for the past 3 months just isn’t working like its supposed to. As a sitter I recognize the importance of consistent small acts of love, play and enrichment to help regulate a furry friend’s nervous system. Whether that means an extra 10 minutes to smell the daisies, food based puzzles, incorporating treats into medication administration or playing fetch in a field, rest assured theyre in good hands. I’m currently working part-time in the evenings so I have availability during weekends, and the afternoons after 1pm. Overnight stays are an option for most weekend days and the beginning of the week. I will be balancing caring for my own pup with yours, but I do not plan on mixing the two. Your furry friend’s time is theirs and theirs alone. First impressions are big with humans, and theyre even bigger with animals. I know the value of sitting with them for a while and giving them the opportunity to smell and get a feel for the person theyre spending time with, especially when entering their home. During walks and activities I like to utilize treats and training cues to help maintain good communication on both sides of the leash. It’s very necessary in highly stimulating environments like the city of Oakland. Making sure they feel safe is my top priority!
“Celeste was a great sitter! She’s easy to communicate with and provided excellent care for our cats. Her visit notes, photos, and videos were very thorough and I was happy to have the opportunity to see her in action. I would definitely recommend her and book with her again!”
About: Since 2022 I’ve had 2 dogs and 3 cats. Never did I think I’d be an animal mom. My babies have helped me tremendously with my mental health. I’m so grateful to be able to open my home and heart for more furry friends. I’m a stay at home wife. I left my job in April to focus on myself & my health. School starts in August (online courses), so working on my permit so I can continue to teach. My days look the same, lots of snuggles with my babies, walks along the marina, snacking together. I’m very much a homebody, now that I have a dog Im trying to get out more and be “social” lol. My babies have free range in our home. They are allowed anywhere in the apartment. Most of the time we are in bed watching the office or friends. There is an abundance of snacks and toys, dad spoils them the most. For the most part it’s pretty quiet and cozy and we have an abundance of space for more fur babes.
“I felt comfortable with Stephan taking care of my dog. He was very responsive and loved my dog (which I find to be very important) My puppy also seemed to respond to him well which makes my heart smile Thank you so much Stephan!!”
“Tea was fantastic in taking care of my cat over a holiday break. He doesn't take kindly to all strangers but he warmed up to her and was very well taken care of. Your pet will definitely be in good hands!”
“Bryan did a great job taking care of my cats when I was out of town! When he came for the meet and greet both of my fur babies went right up to him to say hello.. I got a message and pictures daily, and my kitties were well taken care of. Definitely hope that he is available again when I need another cat sitter 😻”

She walks him regularly, feeds him according to his schedule, and makes sure he has everything he needs. I highly recommend Nicole as your dog caretaker. Floyd will be delighted to see her soon!”
Gregory R.
“I relied on Greg to provide a safe and affectionate environment for almost two years before I moved to Southern California. My pup, Frankie, came from the shelter with a fear of men which made finding a pet sitter a challenge. I once asked my male neighbor to walk my dog as a favor, and he was afraid that my nutty little Spaniel was going to bite him! In contrast, Frankie never ever feared Greg, and that gave me peace of mind when I dropped him off. Greg was also cognizant of Frankie's sensitivities and took care to not expose him to fearful situations unnecessarily. Frankie loved going to Greg's -- even saying Greg's name around the house elicited ear perking and head tilting. Greg's dog, Theo, is a big lovebug and played well with Frankie, too. Greg is a dog lover of all sizes and will care for your fur baby like family. I never had to worry that my fur baby was going to miss his meals, his medication, or come home dirty or traumatized. If you are looking for a reliable and caring dog caregiver, I highly recommend Greg without any reservations.”
Fuliang X.
“Fulinag was amazing with our senior Golden Retriever, Daisy! He has arthritis and needs extra attention, but he made him feel right at home. He sent us daily updates with photos and made sure he took all his medications on schedule. The enclosed yard was perfect for his gentle exercise needs. We're so grateful to have found such a caring and professional sitter.”
Sophia K.
“I met Sophia K. at the dog park and fell in love with her dog. I appreciated how she cared for her own puppy so much and how she engaged with mine that I just checked in the see if she provided services. Just my luck, she did! Sophia is so kind and gentle with my puppies especially since my little princess just lost the ability to walk with IVDD flares. Her communication is on point and her medicine administration is just the ticket. If you would like someone to care for your pup or puppers like they are their own, Sophia is the Rover for you. #specialneeds #medicationadministration”
Celeste S.
“Celeste was a great sitter! She’s easy to communicate with and provided excellent care for our cats. Her visit notes, photos, and videos were very thorough and I was happy to have the opportunity to see her in action. I would definitely recommend her and book with her again!”
Monica G.
“Monica is a lover of all animals and shows individual attention and care towards your pet. She is attentive to their needs--both young and old--knowing what questions to ask and what to be aware of for your pet. She is also very communicative, keeping you informed with how your pet is doing when you are away which is reassuring that your animal is getting the care it needs! Also, I appreciate Monica's observance in your animal's behavior and if anything seems out of the norm, she will let you know. It is evident that her background in human behavior translates with animals as well, being attentive on how they act and behave in their environment and adjusting accordingly based on their needs. She gives her energy and love when taking care of your babies which is why I recommend her for any animal care services.”
Stephan M.
“I felt comfortable with Stephan taking care of my dog. He was very responsive and loved my dog (which I find to be very important) My puppy also seemed to respond to him well which makes my heart smile Thank you so much Stephan!!”

“Tea was fantastic in taking care of my cat over a holiday break. He doesn't take kindly to all strangers but he warmed up to her and was very well taken care of. Your pet will definitely be in good hands!”

Produce And Waterfront pet parents share their Rover experiences
I cannot recommend Lexi enough as a cat sitter! From the very beginning, it was clear that Lexi genuinely cares about animals and takes the responsibility seriously. My cat, Astra, is not always the easiest to care for as he can be shy and a little picky about who he warms up to but Lexi immediately won him over. Lexi goes above and beyond to make sure Astra feels comfortable, cared for, and happy while I’m away. Every time I come home, I can tell Astra has been well looked after and is in a great mood. One of the things I appreciate most is how attentive Lexi is to Astra’s needs. Whether it’s making sure Astra eats well, gets enough playtime, or just feels calm and secure, Lexi handles it all with so much thoughtfulness. They always gives me updates, which gives me total peace of mind knowing that Astra is in such capable hands. Lexi is also incredibly flexible and reliable, which has been a lifesaver for me more than once. If I’ve needed to make last-minute changes or had unexpected travel plans, Lexi has always been willing to adjust and help out without hesitation. That level of understanding and dependability is so rare and so appreciated. On top of all that, Lexi is just such a friendly and positive person. It’s clear that this isn’t just a “job” for Lexi, it’s a genuine passion. I feel 100% confident leaving Astra with Lexi, which honestly says a lot, because I’m pretty protective of my cat! In short, Lexi is literally the best cat sitter ever. I trust them completely with Astra, and I’m so grateful to have found someone so caring, responsible, and kind. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your pet like family, Lexi is the one.
Kiara was awesome! When we arrived home from our trip, I could tell our cats had been well taken care of. Kiara took lots of pictures when she visited to reassure us our kitties were okay. She was easy to communicate with and was even willing to water my plants. Thank you Kiara!
As always Danielle took wonderful care our girl Dahlia. Plus she watered our pack yard for us and brought in our mail. I can’t tell you what a relief it is for us to know that she is here stopping by taking care of our precious Dahlia, and odds and ends while we are away. Thank you Danielle ❤️❤️❤️
Christina was very responsive to my original request and was great during our meet and greet. Despite all the little notes I had, she handled it with flying colors. During the visits, she did a great job of making sure my cat felt the presence of humans, even if my cat wasn't feeling especially social. Thanks so much Christina and I'd love to work with her again.
Emily was a good communicator and overall amazing petsitter with my 2 cats while I was out of the country for almost 2 weeks. My kitties are pretty shy, and she was so great about letting them warm up to her and took such good care of them. One of my girls got a bit sick while I was away, and while I was on such a different timezone, Emily called a vet and followed their advice to keep an eye on her. Thankfully kitty was feeling better the next day, and I'm so grateful for Emily handling it so well!!
Kimberly checked in on our cats multiple times during an extended trip abroad. She spent plenty of time with our cats and always sent photo updates. She was very responsive and professional. We trust her completely with our pets and our home and will definitely be using her services again.
Qishu was a great sitter, who bonded so naturally and quickly with our cat Piper! She left sweet and thorough reports for each visit, plenty of cute vids, and great communication throughout. She went above and beyond to make sure Piper got the extra affection she needs while we're away. Thanks for taking such good care of our sweet P!
Sarah was such a great sitter! She was attentive during the meet and greet and clearly demonstrated her comfort with felines, especially when approaching sassy and slightly aloof kitties like Maddie. I felt comfortable leaving Maddie under Sarah’s care and appreciated her thoughtful updates and timely communication. I wholeheartedly recommend her as a sitter and will not hesitate to hire her in a future 😸
