“Highly recommend Jas! Every visit has been so easy and the updates we get are super informative. We had an issue where our cat had a hairball (typical!) and Jas let us know promptly and gave us feeding updates as the cat recovered. Great professionalism and feedback!”

About: What sets me apart is the combination of hands-on experience with dogs of all ages and temperaments, along with the level of care and attention I genuinely put into every dog I look after. I’ve worked closely with a young puppy, attending training sessions and learning how to reinforce positive behaviors and create an environment where a dog can thrive. I’m comfortable continuing training routines, maintaining structure, and helping puppies build good habits. On the other end of the spectrum, I also have experience caring for senior dogs who require extra patience and support—whether that’s assisting with mobility, following specific diets, or adapting to hearing and vision loss. I regularly dog sit for friends with very different needs, from high-energy dogs who need multiple long walks a day to older dogs who require a slower pace and more hands-on care. I’ve also cared for multiple dogs at once, making sure each one gets the individual attention they need. I pride myself on being adaptable and attentive, tailoring my care to each dog’s personality, routine, and comfort level. Beyond experience, what truly sets me apart is how deeply I care. I treat every dog like family, not just a job. I’ve even gone out of my way on multiple occasions to help neighbors find their lost dogs and have successfully helped reunite them with their owners several times. I believe it’s our responsibility to create a safe, loving, and positive environment where dogs feel relaxed, happy, and encouraged—and that’s exactly the kind of care I provide every time. I work full-time with a flexible hybrid schedule, which allows me to plan ahead one or two weeks in advance for working on site or at home. On weekdays, I can take pups on walks in the early morning or evening, while afternoon walks can be scheduled on a week-by-week basis depending on my on-site work schedule. I’m fully available for boarding on weekends, and depending on my work schedule, I can also offer overnight boarding during the week. I do my best to be flexible and accommodate each dog’s routine—whether that means early morning walks, regular potty breaks, or sticking closely to their usual schedule. If your pup is used to a 7am walk, I’m more than happy to start the day early to make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I prioritize creating a safe, clean, and comfortable environment that helps every dog feel at ease, whether they’re in my home or their own. In my home, I have a private, fenced backyard that’s only accessible through my apartment, so your dog can safely enjoy fresh air. It’s partially covered as well, providing some protection from rain. Inside, I keep my space clean and dog-friendly, with cushioned area rugs to prevent slipping and give dogs a comfortable place to walk, play, or relax. I also provide cozy blankets and an outdoor dog bed so they have options for resting wherever they feel most comfortable. Cleanliness and routine are very important to me—I wash food bowls after each use and refresh water bowls throughout the day. Dogs are welcome on my furniture, but I always respect and follow your home rules to maintain consistency. If your dog isn’t allowed on furniture, I will reinforce those same boundaries. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I’m very respectful of their space and attentive to instructions. I carefully follow all provided routines, house rules, and notes to ensure your dog experiences as much consistency and comfort as possible while you’re away.

“Patrycja was amazing in her drop in visits to look after our cat. She was punctual, thoughtful, and super nice to Bandit. We appreciated her photo and video updates. Strongly recommended!”

“Nicol did a great job checking on our cats while we were out of town. Very attentive to the cats and provided great updates. They were happy and well looked after when we returned.”
“We are so grateful to have found Heleen to take care of our two kitties! Her communication before, during and after visits was excellent and we could tell by the photos she sent that our kitties were comfortable and really liked her. She seemed to really like them too. Highly recommend Heleen and will definitely look to her in the future.”

“Rong was super sweet and really attentive with Stella. Stella usually takes a while to warm up to people, but she seemed very comfortable with Rong right away. Rong also paid attention to the little things around the apartment and kept me updated, which I really appreciated. Would definitely book with her again.”


About: I have 3+ years of hands-on experience caring for my two cats, and I regularly look after a friend’s Shiba Inu for about a month each year. I’m a native Mandarin Chinese speaker and fluent in English. 欢迎全程使用中文沟通,包括见面了解、照护说明和每次服务后的照片与情况更新。 I’m comfortable with feeding, refreshing water, cleaning litter boxes, walks, playtime, and following detailed care routines. Living with a shy cat has taught me to be patient, read pets’ body language, and let them approach at their own pace. I pay close attention to changes in appetite, energy, behavior, and litter box habits. I’ll also provide clear photo updates so you can feel confident that your pet is safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I currently have a flexible schedule and can provide drop-in visits and dog walks on weekdays and weekends, including mornings, afternoons, and evenings. I limit my daily bookings so I can arrive on time, follow each pet’s routine carefully, and give every pet my full attention. I keep my Rover calendar updated and appreciate at least one day’s notice from new clients so we have time to confirm care instructions and arrange a Meet & Greet when needed. I care for pets in the comfort of their own home and follow each owner’s instructions closely. Before the first booking, I prefer a Meet & Greet to review feeding, water, litter boxes, walking routines, home access, emergency contacts, and any health or behavioral needs. During every visit, I make sure doors and gates are secure, keep dogs leashed outdoors, avoid interactions with unfamiliar animals, and respect your home. I also send photos and detailed updates about your pet’s food, water, bathroom habits, energy, and behavior.
“Bergen was amazing with my cat! She kept me updated with photos and messages every visit, and I came home to a happy, well-cared-for kitty. She went above and beyond and made sure my cat felt loved and comfortable. I’ll definitely be booking with her again!”

“Pouneh is awesome. She sent pictures of my cat when she got here and pics of other things I asked for. My cat likes her and I felt comfortable with her being in my home. She really loves animals. I would highly recommend her to anyone that likes attention to detail and most importantly wants great care for your animal.”


About: I’ve always been someone who naturally loves being around animals. I grew up with two dogs in my family and later had my own cat, who was a huge part of my life. What I love most about pets is how they give back even more love when you show them love. Their pure trust, kindness, and affection mean so much to me. I enjoy spending time with them, getting to know their personalities, and making sure they feel safe and cared for. I understand that every pet is different—some want lots of attention and playtime, while others prefer their own space and a calm companion. As a pet owner, I completely understand the anxiety of leaving your loved one at home, and I want to help ease that worry. While I may not be the most professional sitter, I can guarantee that I will treat your pet the same way I would want my own to be treated—with patience, care, and genuine love. Your baby will definitely be in good hands with me. I work part-time as a project manager, which gives me plenty of time and flexibility to spend with your pet and give them the attention they deserve. I have a yard for curious pets to explore, and I live in a quiet, pet-friendly neighborhood where almost every family seems to have a cat or dog! There are also nearby trails where I can take your dog for a run if they’re energetic, or simply enjoy a relaxing walk at their own pace. I currently don’t have any pets or kids at home, so my home is a quiet and comfortable space, especially for pets who may need a little extra time to adjust. Cats and dogs are absolutely welcome on the furniture and, of course, cuddles are always welcome! ❤️ I want your pet to feel at home and will treat them with the same care and love I would want for my own.
“Jenny is so sweet and easy to communicate, my cat loves her and thanks so much for taking care of mocha while we are traveling. My 1st time to use rover and so lucky to have Jenny with us! Everytime Jenny will take tons of pictures and share the details of the stay, even take care of things that I did not think of :)”

About: I have been dogsitting and petsitting for more than 13 years. I work from home and spend all day with my small senior dog Maisy. As a long-time dedicated pet parent, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust to watch your furry friend. I can offer a peaceful, quiet and safe home for friendly, small-to-medium sized adult and senior dogs. I can’t wait to meet your dog! I work from home, so your dog won't be lonely when they stay with me (and my small and friendly senior dog Maisy). I am happy to try to keep your dog's current routine as much as possible during their stay with me. Your dog is welcome in all areas of my 2 bedroom condo. I prioritize safety above all else. I have a safe and quiet home to offer to your furry friend. I have a 2 bedroom condo with no stairs (perfect for senior dogs). There are lots of windows for dogs to look out from or sunbathe in front during the day. There are two large enclosed patios that are perfect for getting some fresh air (with my supervision). The grounds of my condo complex offer trees and much grass for dogs to enjoy during leashed walks. I have no children and live alone (with my dog Maisy) so your dog will get plenty of attention and love.
“Angelica took such great care of our dog while we were away. From start to finish, everything went smoothly and gave us real peace of mind. She was reliable, communicative, and clearly attentive to our dog’s needs.”

“Another amazing experience with Poppy! She did a last-minute drop-in visit for my cat. My cat trusts her (cat is shy and doesn’t let people get close to take photos, but she let Poppy get close); I trust her too!”

About: When my dog was tragically killed by a person after 5 years I have lots of experience and love dogs to get over my first one. Anytime after 6 in the weekdays and weekends Im open but feel free to hit me up you may never know I might be free Since I had a dog I have lots of stuff for dogs and I will continue to buy them. Like pillows and food and toys.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs ever since I was 8 years old. I’ve owned multiple dogs my whole life and they are my favorite animals. My neighbors and friends trust me to take care of their pets when they are away. I’m currently working a very flexible part time job, so I have plenty of time to hangout and take care of my dog and other dogs. I am also very athletic and am always going on runs with my dog. I have a medium sized fenced in backyard and a 6 year old playful lab to keep your pup company. The bay trail is right behind my house so taking the dogs on walks is super safe!

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Redwood Shores
Yiheng took wonderful care of our little Opal while we were away! She really went above and beyond - keeping Opal happy and comfortable, and leaving everything spotless when we got home. Knowing Opal was in such good hands gave us total peace of mind. She also sent the best photo updates for each visit!!

Highly recommend Jas! Every visit has been so easy and the updates we get are super informative. We had an issue where our cat had a hairball (typical!) and Jas let us know promptly and gave us feeding updates as the cat recovered. Great professionalism and feedback!

Chriss was amazing with our two cats! They loved her and she did so well playing with them. Her Rover report cards were super detailed and she sent absolutely adorable photos of the cats. We were so happy knowing they were in good hands and will definitely book her again and recommend anyone else book her as well!
Linda took wonderful care of Qiuqiu again! She is patient, attentive, and caring, and sent us lots of photos and videos every day. We came home to a happy and well-cared-for cat. So grateful to have someone we trust while we’re away. Highly recommend and we will reach out to her again in the future.❤️

This was my second time booking with Jennifer. She clearly loves cats and has such a wonderful understanding with my shy cat Charlie. She's also just the nicest person and was a lifesaver for me this trip -- she went out of her way to be available on days she wasn't originally scheduled as available, including a last minute addition after her last scheduled visit, when my return flight was massively delayed.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Redwood Shores stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Redwood Shores. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
