“Bethany is a great sitter. She was great about communicating how our dog was doing and sent adorable photos of our boy! She is a real animal lover, communicates clearly and is respectful of your home, a perfect set of traits for someone who is staying in your home and caring for a treasured family member!”

“Neha did such a wonderful job. She gave me frequent updates and sent lots of pictures, so I could see how things were going. She followed all my requests and was super attentive to the pups. Best of all, my dogs took to her right away and seemed to really enjoy her company. I highly recommend Neha. I know we will be using her again.”

“Emilie is the perfect sitter for my cat Bunny! I really wanted to find someone who Bunny felt comfortable with and who I could trust to look after her, and I am so, so glad I found Emilie. Emilie has the best energy and they are kind, attentive, and caring to both my cat and the space. Having someone I trust in my home to look after my cat as well as the peace of mind I felt while I was away is deeply invaluable to me. And I love that Bunny now has a new friend! I just got home and Bunny is so relaxed and calm- it just reaffirms that choosing Emilie was the right and best choice. Already booked them for another weekend!”

“Jessica was prompt, followed my requests for care, and sent updates throughout her stay. She is great with dogs; our pup was instantly drawn to her. We will be using Jessica again.”

“The sitting with our cat went perfectly! IULIIA was very attentive, gentle, and caring. We felt completely at ease knowing our kitty were in good hands. We’d be happy to book with IULIIA again! 🔥”

“Courtney got along so well with our dogs, Snack and Tuna, and made us feel totally stress free leaving them for our vacation. She sent amazing, regular updates (even on a busy holiday) and we came home to happy dogs and a super well-kept house. We’re so glad we found Courtney!”

“Brandi did a great job watching my pup, Lucky, over the holidays! She took Lucky on many walks and sent all the photos and videos a dog mom could wish for! Brandi is very communicative and responsible and I'd recommend her to anyone in need of a dogsitter :)”

“Matthew was so amazing and sweet with Hammer and Violet! He sent daily photos and updates while we were away. We felt extremely comfortable having him in our home and he took excellent care of our pups. Thank you Matt!”
“Christopher was an amazing caretaker for our dogs. He sent us pictures, diligently cared for them, and really enjoyed his time with them. The dogs were so well taken care of. We can’t recommend him enough.”

“Ninon is our go-to sitter at our new home in LA — she has really helped Olive (and us!) adjust to the move by being attentive and loving for our old lady. We really appreciate that she seems to get Olive as much as we do.”

“Yessica as always is the best and so thoughtful with my pup. Even when there’s unexpected weather, she found a great way to tire my dog out and give him some enrichment. Simply the best!”

“Emily was great caring for Chuckie. We will define call her again to stay with him. She checked in with texts and photos which we loved. We would also highly recommend Emily.”

About: I’ve taken care of friends and clients pets, feeding and walking them when they are out of town. I give them the attention they need and deserve while their owners are out. I work part-time, but I’m free any time. I’m available most of the days even holidays or weekends. Just let me know what days and times work best for you. At the client's home, I make sure all the doors and gates are closed. I care for your pets like my own, and I know how important they are to people.
“Lindsay is the best, there are no words to adequately express how incredible she is! Our pets simply adore her and are always so thrilled when she sits for them in our home. She is extremely thoughtful and leaves our place better than she found it. She is highly communicative and takes the BEST photos of our babes. She is truly an expert and has handled our high maintenance pets and their individual medical and dietary needs with extreme care. This past weekend when Lindsay was sitting, our front door broke (our fault, it was rotting!) and she quite literally figured out how to get it back on its hinges!! We never have to worry about our pets, their well being, or our home when she is here and we are eternally grateful to have found her through Rover!”

“We always love having Denise! She is incredibly professional, thoughtful, and supportive. If you need someone who understands last minute changes and the stresses of leaving your pet behind, Denise is the perfect fit. She always leaves our house spotless and consistently jumps in to help us out on last minute business trips. Thank you, Denise for taking such great care of our little guy!”

Rancho San Rafael pet parents share their Rover experiences
Bob took excellent care of Mochi and of the home. He was super communicative and flexible, and I always felt in the loop. He was very patient with my sweet, but initially reactive, boy. I also got plenty of cute pictures. I'll definitely be working with Bob again!

megan is amazing. she dog sat our one year old little troublemaker for the weekend and she responded to megan’s calm energy and loved her right away. megan is super quick to reply to messages, did a meet and greet before our trip, shared cute photos along the way, and followed all of our directions perfectly (including giving medication). 10/10 highly recommend her!

Natalie is AMAZING! She watched our two kitties for two weeks, and was so wonderful and communicative. Our boys are total characters, and it was easy to tell she made both of them feel so comfortable and loved during our trip. The house was impeccable when we came home, and we would (and will!) book with Natalie anytime we're traveling. Thank you so much!!!

This is our second time booking Emily to dog/house sit while we're away on vacation, and we will continue to do so in the future. Our two dogs are special needs and require a lot of work, and Emily takes such great care of them. We're so glad we found someone who is reliable and caring. Thank you Emily!!!

As an owner of a breed (Belgian Malinois) that comes with a little higher attention and demand, it was such a relief to find Jarrod! He was incredibly attentive to our instructions, and was great with sharing updates while we were away. He took care of her and our home like they were his own, and as a result I felt like I could relax and not worry while away. Highly recommend!

Emily was wonderful! It’s very hard for me to find someone to watch my anxious dog, but she did great. She gave me a daily update and demonstrated confidence in all of the tasks I left documented. I will definitely book her again because she is reliable and did a wonderful job with my pup! Thank you, Emily!

Lilit was wonderful with Mona! Mona was a little upset and moody at first because she missed me and didn’t expect Lilit to be the one returning after I had left for the weekend. But Lilit was communicative and was so patient with Mona and it ended up settling. Would book with Lilit again!

We can’t say enough good things about Alex! He spent the weekend taking care of our crew, including our paralyzed dog Laika who requires special care. Alex approached everything with such a positive attitude and a genuine willingness to learn. He was flexible when our return flight was delayed by several hours, which was a huge relief. He not only took wonderful care of our animals (who clearly loved having him around) but also went above and beyond in looking after our home, leaving it in better shape than when we left. The peace of mind we had knowing both our house and pets were in such capable hands was truly invaluable. We’re so grateful for Alex’s care and commitment, and we would 100% book with him again!
