“Caroline is absolutely wonderful! She was prompt, showing up right on time. She was very patient with our dog, who is shy and slow to warmup to new people, and did all she could to make her feel comfortable. She kept us informed the entire time and sent photos and cute videos. We highly recommend her!”
“Sydney went above and beyond expectations. She listened to all my instructions and followed up with thoughtful questions, and it's clear how much she cares for dogs. I appreciated all the detailed updates and pictures to show how much my dog enjoyed her care. Not only that, but she took great care of my home, and took extra steps to make sure it was clean and neat upon my return. My dog loved spending the weekend with her, and I'll be sure to keep her in mind for future opportunities.”
“Ian is exceptional! They took wonderful care of our dog, cat, and home—everything was in great shape when we returned. Ian provided regular updates, allowing us to relax and enjoy our trip, knowing our pets and home were in good hands. I highly recommend booking with Ian!”
“Evelyn took care of our rescue dog like her own. She made sure to review our guide in advance (our dog has some triggers based on his shelter experience). She was very affectionate and our dog ended up cuddling with her. Would love to book Evelyn again!”
“Hannah was wonderful! She delayed a trip departure to meet me and my pets and get the lay of my house. While I was gone, she clearly did a great job as the pets were calm and happy upon my return. She even dealt with a small ant infestation in my absence.”
“Felix was awesome! He goes above and beyond my expectations without even the need to communicate anything with him. He got so friendly with my Bella, they played all the time and he was amazing at sending photos and videos so I knew how my kitty was doing. I found the place looking better than when I left and Bella looks happy and well fed and looks like she had a great time. I am so grateful for Felix”
“Maggie had a great time with Casey! Our dog can be difficult with other dogs but Casey assured us he had experience training his own dogs and dog sitting many others. We enjoyed our time off knowing she was in good hands.”
“Alannah was WONDERFUL to work with - she came for a meet and greet before our overnight and was on top of things from the start. She took wonderful care and sent updates on Gigi and even left my place better than she found it- above and beyond! 100% recommend and will hire her again anytime!”
About: I’ve been a pet owner/lover my whole life! Happy to do whatever makes your doggie feel comfortable while you are away! I know how much pets mean to their owners and would love to offer some TLC to yours when you can’t be there. I’ve also done housesitting for many people over the years and I’ll take great care of your home as well! I can also do chores around the house while you are away, if desired. I specialize in pets that are higher maintenance or require special care (administer meds, nervous/anxious animals, older animals, etc.) I hope to get to meet your furry friend(s) very soon! I am a friendly, down to earth, clean person that will make your time away worry free!
“Billie was absolutely amazing with my cat, Sona! Sona loved her as soon as they met, and Billie was so great about asking lots of questions about Sona’s schedule, etc. She sent videos every day I was away, was so communicative and thoughtful, and took such good care of Sona. I was able to enjoy my time away much more, knowing my fur baby was in such good hands. Would absolutely book Billie again for pet sitting!”
About: I've loved animals my whole life and have cared for dogs and cats of all ages, from playful puppies to sweet senior pets. I'm patient, gentle, and pay close attention to each pet's unique needs. Whether it’s giving belly rubs, slow walks for older pups, or active playtime for energetic dogs, I adjust to what makes them happiest. I’m reliable, communicative, and treat every pet like they’re my own. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I genuinely love spending time with animals. I’m currently very flexible, especially on evenings and weekends. Whether it's a quick check-in, feeding, or playtime I’ll make sure your pet gets consistent, loving care. I always prioritize each pet’s safety, comfort, and routine. In your home, I make sure to follow your instructions closely—whether that’s feeding schedules, walk times, or special care needs. I keep a calm, clean environment and give pets lots of attention and affection while respecting their space. I also stay in touch with regular updates and photos so you always know your pet is happy and safe. If I ever have a question or notice something unusual, I’ll reach out right away.
About: I offer a unique blend of love and expertise that sets me apart. Not only am I a lifelong animal lover, but I also have experience in basic pet training, ensuring your furry friends follow commands while in my care. Additionally, I provide daily updates and pictures, so you can feel connected and informed while you’re away. Each visit includes personalized playtime tailored to your pet’s unique personality, ensuring they feel loved and engaged. I will give your pets the pampering and attention they deserve! I have an open schedule and will book in advance for vacations and travel dates. I manage my schedule based on the number and type of bookings I have. I live in an apartment in Redwood Shores with access to dog friendly grounds, open space, and walking trails. I tailor my care to your pets individual needs and schedule. All pets should be house trained.
“Yara was great! She came a week early to do a meet and greet with Gizmo and followed all the detailed instructions! She also sent me daily photos of my dog which gave me that extra conditioner! She was very sweet and attentive while taking care of my pup! Plan to use her again for future overnight visits!! A++++”
“Xander did a great job caring for our dog Teo. Very extensive walks and super attentive; Teo clearly liked him! And he’s a very good communicator. We will definitely work with Xander again next time.”
“Thiri was great with our high energy puppy Jira and took her to the park a lot, she was very good at sending us updates throughout the day which we really appreciated since it was our first time using Rover. Overall the house was in order when we got back and Jira was happy!”
“Karina was AMAZING! This was our first time leaving Elka alone for two weeks. Karina gave us peace of mind from the minute. Elka saw her. Karina provided us updates and shared photos and videos of Elka. She was so wonderful with Elka and a complete professional. We are definitely going to use Karina again. We highly recommend her”
About: Dogs have been a part of my family since I was born. There has never been a time in my life when I have not had one in my home or cared for one or two. My first college job as an interior designer consisted of caring for my boss’s pet. She became my own and she held a lot of memory space in my camera. At any chance I can get, I love to live on other people’s dogs and show them the love their special human gives them. The love a dog gives a human in return is like no other love. Dependent, unconditional and real. I have two Beagles of my own, Snoopy (boy 21 months) and Charlie (girl 4 months). I love takining dogs for hikes, to the dog park to throw them or kick them a ball, teach them to run through the obstacle course and bathe them to look their Sunday Best and Snuggles & Kisses are welcomed! I’m currently working part-time as an Interior Designer and what better way to fill my days and nights, than be around a Women’s Best Friend. I have two Beagle pups in my large 2 bed 2 bath apartment with deck, the more the merrier, but I am willing and able to care for them in the comfort of their own home. I have years and years of dog care experience and would love to care for yours.

Gillian S.
“I had my cat Bianca for 18 years and Gillian was always the one that took care of her when I had to travel for work or went on vacation. Bianca loved a daily petting so Gillian would always spend an hour each day making sure she got the love and attention she wanted. Bianca also loved fresh water and a very clean liter box and she took care of that as well. Unfortunately she also would throw up when she was upset by my travels so she cleaned those spots off of my carpet when needed. Gillian has always loved animals, dogs (she has two of her own), cats, horses, rabbits, etc. I would definitely recommend her for her dog walking pet sitting, and house sitting needs!”

HoChuen (Oscar) was amazing. Very responsive and very quick to call or communicate with any question a that arose throughout his stay with our big guy. We loved the photos and daily updates he gave us. We would not only use Oscar again but would highly recommend him to anyone needed him to stay and watch your pup. Thanks again Oscar for leaving us feeling assured that our big guy was safe and taken care off at our home.
Kat is phenomenal. We came home to the happiest and healthiest puppy (and we all know how hard it is to take care of a puppy for over a week) as well as a spotless home. We had significant issues traveling home our last day and Kat was flexible and supportive the entire time even going out of her way to stay longer with our girl. Kat is 100% my go to going forward and both our puppy and I recommend her wholeheartedly.
Karina was AMAZING! This was our first time leaving Elka alone for two weeks. Karina gave us peace of mind from the minute. Elka saw her. Karina provided us updates and shared photos and videos of Elka. She was so wonderful with Elka and a complete professional. We are definitely going to use Karina again. We highly recommend her
I'm so grateful to have found Chris as a sitter for my dog Kinako. Chris showed incredible patience and really took the time to engage with him. It was clear Chris genuinely enjoyed spending time with Kinako - not just going through the motions, but actually playing and making sure he was comfortable and happy. What impressed me most was how patient Chris was with Kinako's personality and needs. Chris didn't rush the sitting session but instead focused on building a connection with him. Kinako seemed relaxed and content when I returned, which tells me everything I need to know about the quality of care he received. I would definitely book with Chris again and highly recommend his services to other dog owners!
Debora and Jorge were great with our senior dog, Biscuit! They sent us regular updates and photos. They were also really detail oriented and made sure they fully understood our dog's needs. They were also great house guests. We'd be happy to book with them again!
We were lucky to get Michelle when we had to be out of town but our cat was in a cone and recovering with stitches. I felt much better being away knowing my pet was with a trained vet tech - whew! Michelle kept me posted on details I needed, and my cat, who is normally elusive to strangers, warmed up to her quite well. I came home and found everything as it should be. Will use her again!
Thiri was an amazing sitter! She took excellent care of our two cats and dog while house sitting for us. One of our cats is elderly and requires medication, and Thiri handled it with no problem at all. She was incredibly attentive, communicative, and clearly has a genuine love for animals. Our dog absolutely adored her! We felt completely at ease knowing our pets were in such capable hands. We’ll definitely be booking with her again!
Sarina house / dog sat for us and was fantastic with our dog Roti!! She’s very detail oriented, considerate, and experienced with animals. She asked all the right questions and her calm demeanor also meant that Roti took to her very quickly and was perfectly at ease while we were away. She took great care of the home as well. Thank you so much Sarina! We would most definitely love to have Sarina as our house/dog sitter again!
Holly is fabulous. She is very communicative, reliable, responsible, and sweet. She goes above and beyond. Washing sheets and towels without being asked, taking our doggie on great hikes, and when my mom left her bag in an Uber that came back to our house, Holly tipped the driver for her (my mom had already left)...very kind and thoughtful!! She is a repeat sitter for us.
This was my very first time using Rover so I was nervous. I’m so grateful I hired Barbara. My cat, Blue, liked her from the start and Barbara would send me photos and videos of Blue cuddling with her and regular updates. Barbara took very good care of Blue and I’m happy I found her.
Maria was the kindest, most attentive and thoughtful sitter we've ever had. We would give her 10 stars if we could. She took such incredible care of both our dog and home, treating it like she would her own. She's always easy to get in contact with and always kept us updated. She's respectful and friendly. Can't recommend her to take care of your little loved ones enough! Thank you SO much Maria. You gave us such peace of mind while we were away.
