About: I was raised surrounded by animals of all kinds that brought me so much joy and knowledge. I’m comfortable with tiny insects to large farm animals. I’ve done bottle feeding and walks with young animals. I’ve moved from home but would love to continue caring for animals all around! I work in education so my summer is open for anything! Only my Sundays am I usually busy in the morning to afternoon. I’ll seek to meet your needs as best as I can! :) My services will cater to you and your pet’s needs! I’ll always want to read the room to know the pets needs, while ensuring I stick to their care-schedule and keep them fed, entertained, and well kept in a clean environment!

About: Hi! I’m a reliable, attentive dog lover with over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments. My experience includes working with Border Collies and Great Pyrenees in a ranch setting, where they herded and guarded sheep, as well as providing professional care at a busy dog daycare. I also have extensive experience caring for large-breed family dogs. Whether your dog is energetic, shy, young, or a senior, I believe every pet deserves patience, consistency, and individualized care. My goal is to make every walk or visit a positive experience so you can have complete peace of mind knowing your best friend is safe, happy, and well cared for. Thanks for stopping by my profile! I work part-time caring for dogs professionally, so spending time with animals is something I genuinely enjoy every day. I’m available all day on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Sundays. I may also be available on my workdays depending on my schedule. I appreciate at least 24 hours’ notice whenever possible so I can plan my day and give your pet the time and attention they deserve. Whether your companion is energetic and playful or prefers a slower pace, I’m happy to tailor my care to their individual personality and routine. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member! One of my favorite parts of pet care is getting to know each animal’s unique personality, communication style, and routines so they feel comfortable and understood. Every dog is different, so my first priority is building trust. When we first meet, I give each dog the time and space they need while I observe their personality, body language, and comfort level. From there, I adjust my approach to match what helps them feel safe and confident. I believe in treating every dog with kindness, respect, and clear boundaries. I use positive reinforcement—including praise, encouragement, and treats when appropriate—to reinforce good behavior. Rather than relying on punishment, I focus on redirecting unwanted behaviors and setting dogs up for success in a calm, consistent way. Whether we’re playing at home or out on a walk, safety always comes first. I enjoy interactive play while maintaining a safe environment, and I tailor each walk to the individual dog. Some dogs are happiest walking calmly at my side, while others enjoy taking the lead, and I’m happy to adapt to what is safest and most comfortable for them. My goal is simple: to make every dog feel secure, understood, and genuinely excited to spend time with me. When I enter a dog’s home, I remember that I’m stepping into their familiar space. My first priority is helping them feel safe and comfortable with my presence. I allow each dog to approach at their own pace, paying close attention to their body language and personality so I can build trust before asking anything of them. Once a dog is comfortable, I love engaging them through safe, interactive play that matches their energy level and preferences. Whether it’s a game of fetch, tug, enrichment activities, or simply relaxing together, my goal is to provide both physical exercise and positive companionship while maintaining clear, consistent boundaries. I strive to leave every dog feeling secure, respected, and excited to see me again. I want you to have peace of mind knowing your pet is not only well cared for, but genuinely enjoying our time together. I don’t expect dogs to adapt to me—I adapt to the dog while providing clear, consistent boundaries.

About: I’ve had cats my whole life and currently have one of my own, so I understand the deep bond we share with our pets. I also have years of experience with dogs—walking, feeding, playing, and overnight house sitting. What truly sets me apart is the level of medical care I’ve provided. When my late cat became ill, I had to administer subcutaneous IV fluids and oral medications daily. That experience taught me not only technical skills but also patience, gentleness, and how to comfort pets during vulnerable moments. I’m confident handling medications, understanding pet behavior, and creating a calm environment for animals of all ages and temperaments. Your pet will be in loving, capable hands. I’m currently working part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule to care for your pets with plenty of time, energy, and attention. I’m available for house sitting and drop-ins during the week, and on weekends. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or overnight stays, I’ll make sure your pet feels loved and cared for while you’re away! When I care for pets, whether in my home or yours, I treat them like family. I stick closely to your pet’s usual routines and preferences to ensure they feel safe and comfortable. I’m tidy, respectful of your space, and keep a calm, pet-friendly environment. I always prioritize their well-being, monitor behavior closely, and provide updates so you can feel confident and at ease while you're away.

About: I have over 8 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs, including raising and caring for my own Morkie since he was a puppy and regularly helping care for a family member’s Bernedoodle from puppyhood as well. My experience includes daily walks, feeding, bathing, playtime, administering medication when needed, and making sure pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I have also completed numerous dog-sitting jobs for family friends, caring for pets while families were out of town and adapting to each dog’s individual routine and needs. In addition, I volunteered for 4 years at Pets in Need Animal Shelter in Redwood City, where I worked as both a dog and cat caregiver and helped socialize animals to prepare them for adoption. Responsibilities included cleaning spaces, feeding animals, providing enrichment and exercise, and helping animals feel comfortable in a shelter environment. I also occasionally volunteered during outreach events that provided pet care services for unhoused individuals and their animals in San Francisco. I have a very flexible schedule, so I’m able to dedicate plenty of time and attention to pet care throughout the week. I have availability during weekdays and weekends and try to be as accommodating as possible to each pet owner’s schedule. Whether it’s walks, drop-ins, playtime, feeding, or sticking to a pet’s normal routine, I’m happy to provide dependable care and updates while you’re away. I care for pets with patience, attention, and a focus on making them feel safe and comfortable, whether in my home or a client’s home. I live in an apartment with a park directly across the street, making walks and outdoor time easy and convenient. I always try to follow a pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication if needed, and any instructions from owners to help pets feel comfortable and cared for while their family is away.

Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or simply sticking to their routine, I’m happy to adapt to their individual needs. I’m attentive, patient, and prioritize your pet’s comfort and safety at all times. I’ll keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages so you can relax knowing your pet is happy, loved, and well cared for while you’re away.

My goal is for you to have complete peace of mind knowing your pet is loved and well cared for.

Stephanie went above and beyond to take care of our disgruntled pit bull. In the process of switching sitters and our dog was not being friendly at all when Stephanie showed up, despite the previous meet & greet. Scary to have a pit growling and barking at you but Stephanie was able to win her over. Relieved and impressed, will be rebooking Stephanie regularly.

About: In addition to caring for my own lovely cat and senior pup, I have pet sat for friends and family members regularly for the past 10+ years. I have experience with fur babies with a range of quirks, behaviors, and medical needs, so I am prepared for anything that comes my way. I am a graduate student with a flexible schedule, so I have plenty of time to spend caring for critters, especially during the upcoming summer break! I am very careful and safety-conscious, so you can be sure I will leave your home secure and comfortable for your pets when I visit.

It was a pleasure working with Michael! This was my first experience on Rover and he made it a great one. Michael not only medicated, fed, and played with with my moody cat, but he also sent adorable photos and detailed updates to ease my mind during my travel. I will definitely call him again (and you should too)!

About: Throughout my life I have been surrounded by pets, especially dogs. Through this experience, I have become accustomed to taking care of them, whether they are large or small. I was always the first person to be called when neighbors were headed out of town. I am always down to exercise with animals, supply food and water, and make sure their experience of life is maximized. I am a full time student so school does take up a majority of my days, although I am totally open any time from Fridays through Sundays. My experience caring for pets has been your typical walk, making sure they are eating the proper nutritional diet at the right times, and allowing pets to lose any energy that has been built up. Animals are such a vital part of life so we must love and care for them just as they do to us!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs for nearly my entire life. My responsible instincts and passionate attitude have made me a reliable pet sitter for friends, neighbors, and family. I have experience with dogs of all ages, sizes, and backgrounds and I love them all! I know how much our furry friends matter, which is why I always take the owner into consideration when communicating care for your companion. I’m currently working remotely which leaves me plenty of time to care for your critter during the week. I am also available most weekends. I don’t currently have any pets of my own, so I can stay with your pet for as long as you need. I respect all the care instructions of the owner while using my own background knowledge to make up for the rest. I have experience crate training and potty training. I know the importance of routine for dogs which is why I am consistent and thoughtful in my approach, while remaining flexible to the needs of your pet.

About: I started my dog-sitting journey on Rover back in 2017 and had the pleasure of meeting so many wonderful fur babies and their parents. In 2020, I adopted my own pup, Luna - a perfect Chihuahua–Miniature Pinscher–Dachshund mix. I took a break from dog sitting then so I could focus on Luna and her training. It’s been a few years, and now Luna and I are ready to welcome both new and old furry friends again! I also work from home full-time, so your pup will get plenty of attention, supervision, and care throughout the day. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine since I work from home full-time. This allows me to provide frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, and plenty of attention throughout the day. I structure my day to make sure the dogs in my care are comfortable, supervised, and sticking to their normal routines as much as possible. My dog Luna is also part of the daily routine, so caring for pets—feeding, walks, playtime, and cuddle time—is already a regular part of my day. I do occasionally step out for short periods (usually no longer than 2–4 hours) for workouts or errands, but otherwise I’m home and able to give the dogs lots of attention and care. Your pup’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a calm, clean, and loving home environment where dogs are treated like family. Since I work from home full-time, pets in my care receive plenty of supervision, attention, and regular potty breaks throughout the day. I live in a spacious one-bedroom apartment that’s perfect for small dogs. My dog Luna is friendly and will be around for companionship, so I only host dogs who are comfortable with other dogs. For everyone’s safety, I also require that visiting pups are fully potty trained and house trained. I carefully follow each pet’s routine and any instructions you provide, including feeding schedules, medications, and special needs. I’m also happy to send regular updates and photos so you can feel confident and relaxed while your pup is in my care.

Lexi was everything I could have hoped for and more! We have never left our two cats with anyone but family, but now have seven chickens in the mix, which is a tall order for anyone. Had she not been so perfect for the job we would have cancelled our vacation because I adore all 9 of our girls! She sent pics, updates, kept us in the loop, and I never for a moment worried about our gang of fur and feathers. She came by twice a day and genuinely loved our pets- you can see it in her eyes in the selfies with our chickens! So grateful we found Rover and most of all Lexi. We’re ready to plan more vacations now lol. Highly recommend her for any and all pet needs.

About: Hi there! My name is Shannon and I have two dogs (a Pit and a Rot mix) and a cat. My dogs are 8 and 9 and my cat is 12 and I have had animals since I was three. I have worked through aging animals, medical care, care after surgery, etc. and will do whatever I can to care for your babies as if they were my own. I am a charter school teacher but I work from home so I can adjust my work schedule around you! My own dogs eat 2x a day and we visit the dog park daily so whatever schedule works best for your household, I am happy to provide. My dogs and cat are my babies and I will treat yours as my own. I can give medication, take the babies on walks, send pics as needed, whatever will make your life easier and your animal feel safe and loved!

Mari seems so nice! You know when you look at a person & can just tell they’re genuinely a good human-being? That’s how I felt about Mari & what made me feel comfortable choosing a fellow dog-lover who is intuitive, patient & understanding. She had clear communication, was supportive of mine & Maggie’s needs, & followed everything exactly how I requested.
