About: I have extensive experience taking care of reactive and high-maintenance dogs, including my own. I am comfortable dealing with aggressive dogs and will do everything in my power to make your dog feel safe and relaxed on walks or while I keep them company at home. I have spent years cultivating a trusting relationship with my own senior rescue dog who requires special bathing and walking care in his old age and who was extremely anxious and aggressive with other dogs in his younger years. I have been a reliable dog-walker for friends and neighbors who trust me to take care of both their low- and high-needs dogs. I am very patient, and I understand that establishing a positive and trusting relationship with any animal takes time and effort. I look forward to meeting your wonderful pet! I am a PhD student at Stanford with a moderately flexible schedule. Typically I work 9-5 weekdays. For dog walking, it is easiest for me to walk in the later afternoon, starting around 4pm. I am open to house sitting as long as you live near Stanford campus (I have a bike, but no car). For pet sitting, I usually plan a short walk/play time in the morning, a longer walk in the late afternoon, and a short walk/play time in the evening. I am more flexible on weekends. I believe that building a relationship with pets takes time, and I am willing to put in the effort to establish and bond with your pet. This will make the experience better for both of us! I am happy to play with pets in the home and enjoy giving belly rubs too.

About: I’m a student looking to help out with some local pet care and housesitting while i’m home for the summer. I’m vegan, I live alone, and I genuinely love animals and have a lot of flexibility with my schedule so I'm more than happy to keep your pets company, stick to their regular routines, daily walks, and make sure everything is taken care of. I'll always send plenty of photo updates too so you know they're doing great. I've taken care of dogs and cats for neighboring families and friends for many years, so I'm super comfortable handling pets with various different personalities and needs. I’m home for the summer and my schedule is incredibly open and flexible right now. Since I don't work a job, I have plenty of free time during the week and on weekends to hang out with your pets, stick to their routines, and make sure they're taken care of as if they are my own. Safety is the main thing for me. I always double-check locks and gates, follow whatever feeding or walking instructions you leave, and keep a close eye on them. I've watched dogs and cats for family and friends for the past two years, so I know what kind of things can go wrong and how to keep everyone happy and safe.

About: We’re an engaged couple living in East Palo Alto and looking for more opportunities to spend quality time with animals! We’ve been trusted dog and cat sitters for friends and family for years, and recently decided to give Rover a try. We’d love to provide your pet with extra love, attention, and care while you’re away or taking some time for yourself. We can’t wait to meet your furry family member! 🥰 One of our favorite things to do is go on walks together. We always joke and say we’re meant to have a pet, and we’re sure we will have our own one day. We walk daily during our lunch breaks and each evening after work. We’d love to take your pet with us! We live in a house with a private fenced backyard. We have no pets or kids in our house and we plan to take care of one pet/family at a time so we can give them our full attention and make sure they are as comfortable as can be.

“Jess was awesome! We had a change of plans last minute before the Memorial Day weekend and I was able to find Jess the day before we left. We scheduled a meet and greet the day we were leaving to give her the rundown on how to take care of our dog (Bella), 3 guinea pigs, and rabbit. She took it all in and exceeded my expectations as I was expecting a phone call or message about something but I never did. She absolutely took great care of all of our animals!”

“Cameron was very responsive and comfortable with handling my 65 pound dog. My dog also warmed up to him much quicker than he would with the average stranger/sitter. Thank you Cameron for a wonderful session.”

About: I have been dog sitting since I was in high school for friends and families dogs. I have two dogs of my own - a pit bull and yellow lab. I have been working on TrustedHouse Sitters for a while now and decided to try Rover out! I am an active, social person that loves to take dogs on walks, play with animals, and give them all the cuddles they want. I am currently a Nuclear Medicine student that mostly spends afternoons and evenings at home studying, so having a companion would be amazing! I thrive off of helping people out and being around both animals and humans! I am at clinicals for 8 hours a day, so I like to look for places nearby Stanford hospital. I wake up at around 5-6am, get ready and take the dogs for a walk, feed them and give them attention before being at the hospital from 8am-4pm. After clinicals, I make sure to walk the dogs first thing when I get back, and play with them whether that be fetch, pets, cuddles, etc. I love my long walks so if you are looking for a dog walker, I'm there! I always to make sure when I get home from clinicals, to walk the dogs and give them all of the attention they need! I keep homes tidy and respect people's space. I understand what it could be like to let someone in your home, and I will do my best to make you feel comfortable with both your home and pets. I am gone during the day for clinicals and spend most nights inside with the animals.

About: Dogs have been part of my life since I was 10. I've cared for everything from toy breeds to large breeds, and neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me for years to walk, feed, play with, and check in on their pets. Every size and energy level is welcome here, including puppies and senior dogs, and I'm happy to give oral medications on schedule (I don't administer injections). Safety comes first: dogs stay leashed on walks, your instructions get followed to the letter, and I make a point of knowing where the nearest emergency vet is. My afternoons are flexible, which makes me a great fit for midday and after-work walks and drop-in visits. You'll hear from me on every single visit - photos, our GPS-tracked route, distance covered, and notes on how your dog did, because I'd want that same peace of mind. Let's set up a quick Meet & Greet so your pup and I can get acquainted first. My afternoons are flexible, so weekday middays and after-work hours are when I'm most available for walks and drop-in visits, and weekends are wide open. I keep my Rover calendar updated daily and reply to messages within minutes. For regular clients, I'm glad to hold a standing weekly slot on the same days and times each week so your dog's routine stays predictable. Most of my care happens in your home, so respecting your space comes first. Written instructions get followed exactly, doors and gates stay secured, everything is left the way I found it, and your address and entry details are never shared with anyone. On walks, dogs stay leashed the entire time, I stick to routes I know well, bring water on warm days, and check paws and coat afterward. Before the first visit I make sure I have your vet's contact information and the location of the nearest emergency clinic. After every visit you'll get photos and a written recap, so you always know exactly how your dog is doing.

“Trina went above and beyond taking care of our little dog and keeping him company. We are so glad to have found her and will definitely try to have her again!”

“Sjofn was soooooo happy to get so many belly rubs she was thrilled and didn’t want them to leave. I highly recommend Guilherme and his wife. Sjofn would be thrilled to get more belly rubs and I would be happy to have them watch her again :)”

“We’ve been hiring cat sitters for over a year now, and Rachel is definitely one of the best people we’ve ever worked with. She took wonderful care of our cats; they were safe and happy. We would absolutely love to have Rachel take care of them again in the future - highly recommend! 🐱🫶”

About: I have over 20 years of pet care experience. I love to play with high energy animals and hang out with low energy animals. I make sure to check for skin and other health issues while petting them and I will always communicate any concerns. I know how to administer medications including injections. As a general rule, I will not allow pets to interact with other animals while walking. I like to know every one will make it home safely. I currently work part time as a nanny so I am available weekdays between 9am and 2 pm and after 6 pm. I am also available most weekends. I can care for any pet inside their own home. I follow all feeding, walking, and meditation schedules. I respect people’s privacy and focus solely on their animal(s).

“Danielle is awesome! We scheduled meet-and-greet prior to the pet sitting so that we can meet in person and Danielle knows where everything is. My cat is too shy and timid to come out and play with her, but Danielle took care of the daily chores for my cat and sent me detailed notes daily. Highly recommend her for your pet :)”

“Josie did an amazing job looking after my cat! She sent detailed updates and adorable pictures with every visit, which gave me total peace of mind while I was away. She’s incredibly responsible, attentive, and sweet. I will definitely be booking her again!”

About: I love animals and enjoy taking care of them in my spare time. I usually take care of my friends pets while they go on vacation so though, why not join Rover! I also enjoy house sitting for a change of scenery! I am working full time but am flexible to do whenever fits your animals needs. I am fully free in the day on weekdays to attend. I am very vigilant and enjoy giving the animals some time to walk outside and also play in the garden! I do not have my own dog or cat so I will give full attention to yours :)

“Emma was amazing to have over! She was very quick to respond, very profession and super nice. She even was able to give my senior diabetic cat his insulin for me Very reliable and was on time”

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and caring for them is something I genuinely love. I have years of professional pet care experience, including completing more than 400 dog walks, and I’ve cared for dogs of all different ages, sizes, breeds, personalities, and energy levels. I’m also a yoga and Pilates instructor, so staying active is a big part of my everyday life. I’m happy to take an energetic pup on a long, active walk, but I’m just as comfortable slowing things down for a senior dog or a pup who prefers to stop and sniff every few feet! Most importantly, I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care. I treat every animal with patience, affection, and attention to their individual needs. Whether your dog needs exercise, companionship, playtime, or simply someone dependable to keep them company, my goal is for them to feel happy, safe, and loved while they’re with me. I truly love animals and would be delighted to get to know yours! 🐾

About: I’ve taken care of animals ever since I was a child. Dogs, cats, rabbits, chickens- you name it! I genuinely care for your fur babies as you would. I work from home and have a flexible schedule. We can work around what you need. Message me and we will work something out :) I can’t have pets at my current apartment, unfortunately. I can take incredible care of your pet at your home. I’ve had pets all my life and I’m the trusted friend/relative when anybody needs a sitter, you can rest assured they’re in good hands with me!
