“Vanessa was very communicative around planning the visit and she was also very respectful of my cat’s boundaries around new people! She also was skilled in giving my cat her medication with minimal resistance haha. Thank you for taking care of her!”
About: I've taken care of dogs since I was really little, I was always the kid asking to dog sit for the neighbors when they were out of town. I spent my first few years in university as a dog sitter and loved meeting so many different pups. I currently work part-time at a dog daycare! I love being outside, taking my dog to Golden Gate park and to the beach, or just quiet walks along the trail! I work part time at a doggy daycare in the city until 1:00pm so I would be available for drop-in visits and walks anytime after then. While I'm in the home, I ensure your pup is safe by not leaving any of my belonging where they can get to them, I respect your home by removing my shoes, not eating food while there and leaving it just as I found it. I have experience with reactive dogs, so when I'm out of the house with your pup, I keep the leash on at all times and always have a close eye on your pup. I prefer hands-free, loose leash walking when possible so that I can react quickly. I do not go to dog parks or allow your pup to meet with any other pups while on our walks. Depending on your preferences, I am happy to have a slow, casual walk and I am also happy for a high energy park or beach walk as well. Also with your permission, I do love treats and training on walks!
About: I have been walking other dogs for two years now and my own for 8 years! I have worked with senior dogs and I am very good at knowing when they need a break. I am very passionate about animals and their wellbeing! My sister is a veterinarian, so I know a lot about dogs and their behavior! You can trust me to give your pups walks filled with memories and love! As long as your dogs are with me, I will always ensure that they are healthy and happy! I currently go to college full time, but my schedule is flexible for walks! I am available Monday-Sunday during different times in the day and am willing to work with your schedule as long as you’re willing to work with mine. I will always make sure that whatever walk I book, I make time for and plan accordingly. I currently only do walks, however, I have had two dogs myself one being young while the other was a senior. I made sure to care for them both equally in the ways that fit them best. Because one was 4 and the other was 9, my senior girl slowed down more, so I allowed her to rest whenever she needed during exercise. I make sure to keep the younger animals busy and stimulated at all times! I love all animals so much and only want the best for them! I make sure to keep the dogs I work with safe. I make sure to always have plenty of water, treats if needed, and poop bags during our walks. I also like to bring toys if we are going to an area where they can play! I am pretty well educated as a pre-vet student.
“Sabrina was very responsive and we were comfortable knowing our cat was in good hands! Also - our cat seemed to like her quickly and happily take her meds/hang around for pets :)”
“Prompt and clear in her communication. Great attention to detail when we had to keep cats separated and each cat had different food with medicines mixed in. Super easy going about completing the tasks and leaving some time to play with the kitties and give them some love. Filled out Rover cards at her visits (nice for peace of mind to get that confirmation each time that things are on track and the babies are taken care of), and sent photos of cats, completed tasks, and any important health or house updates (kitty vomit, placed packages inside the house) to let us know what was going on. Felt totally confident that the kitties were in great hands! Thumbs up. Will definitely hire again.”
About: I had a wonderful German Shepherd for 12 good yrs and 5 beautiful cats! I have also taken care of our neighborhood cats and dogs when families go on vacation. I’ve done dog walking and drop-ins for families in the Peninsula, Livermore, and East Bay. I also have experience with elderly dogs and blind dogs. I am available most of the week unless I am booked by other clients. Please feel free to message me even if there isn’t availability shown on the schedule. I have a fenced back yard where your babies can roam around and play! I also have lots of dog toys for indoor activities !
About: I have two years of daily, hands-on experience caring for my own dog, Kylie. She is energetic but can be shy in unfamiliar situations, so I have learned to read a dog’s body language, give them time to adjust, and build trust without forcing interaction. In addition to caring for Kylie, I regularly help care for my friends’ dogs when they are away. This has given me experience following different feeding, walking, playtime, and bathroom routines and caring for dogs with different personalities and energy levels. I am patient, attentive, and careful about following each owner’s instructions. I will treat your dog with the same care I give my own and provide regular photo and message updates while you are away. I currently have a flexible schedule, so I am able to plan my day around pet care and provide consistent attention rather than rushing between visits. I am generally available on weekdays for walks, drop-in visits, and house sitting. I can accommodate morning, afternoon, and evening care depending on the booking. I will confirm my availability before accepting each request and make sure I have enough time to follow your pet’s usual feeding, walking, playtime, and bathroom routine. I provide care in my client’s home, where pets can remain comfortable in their familiar environment. Before the booking, I prefer to have a meet and greet to learn about each pet’s personality, routine, care instructions, and any special needs. I carefully follow the owner’s directions for feeding, walks, playtime, and medication. I pay close attention when entering or leaving the home and always check that doors, windows, gates, leashes, and harnesses are secure. I will never let a pet off leash or introduce them to unfamiliar animals without the owner’s permission. I respect my client’s home, keep the pet’s space clean, and maintain their usual routine as closely as possible. I also provide regular photos and updates and will contact the owner promptly if I notice any unusual behavior or health concerns.
“Sandra was wonderful! She went above and beyond for my cat (who is usually shy meeting new sitters). She was lovely and adaptable to our needs and took very good care of both my cat's physical needs and her home environment while I was away. She also provided a preliminary meet and greet visit and plenty of pictures and updates throughout the booking. Will definitely book again in the future if at all possible and cannot recommend Sandra enough!!”
“I booked Sin Hang last minute once I realized I desperately need help with my new rescue. She was very responsive, easy to communicate, and non-judgemental. I highly recommend this sitter.”
“We engaged Chenyang for several drop-in visits to take care of our cats. She is very responsible, communicative, and punctual. She’s detail-oriented and took photos of her work to assure us that everything was in order. She’s very kind and gentle to pets and our cats warmed up to her very quickly. We would definitely work with her next time!”
“Jie was a wonderful cat sitter! She stopped by to feed, scoop litter, and play with our two boys while we were away for a few days. She kept me well informed and updated and sent tons of pictures of her visits. It was so nice to have peace of mind while I was away and know my cats were well taken care of.”
About: I grew up with animals such as goats, chickens, ducks, cats, dogs, and rabbits. I currently have two cats that I’m obsessed with. I have furbaby sat for multiple furbabies in one household which one of whom who had a heart condition that required medication distribution 2x a day. I also helped ease anxiety ridden fur babies by being present, cuddling, create a song and dance number if they let me and taking a ton of photos. Also have had requests to take of care other pet babies such fishes and Guinea pigs as well. I ensure that all furbabies basic needs are met but also their social-emotional wellbeing. Animals require lots of love as they can have a hard time being out of their element. I have unconditional love to provide while their parents can do what they need with peace, ease, and comfort knowing that their fur babies are safe and cared for in a lovingly environment. I am available for doggy/kitty daycare and boarding in my home from Monday-Saturday (fur babies can be picked up Saturday morning/afternoon). If you need a Sunday accommodations I am willing to work with you. I am available Monday-Saturday for walk. will do my best to be accommodating to the pets needs. I am home at the moment as I have recently lost employment. I have the time and love to provide for fur babies as I given already given my time and care for human children while I was employed with child welfare. *PLEASE NOTE: While rover does not require a meet n greets (although highly recommended by them), I DO REQUIRE a meet n greet. This is to ensure that all of our furbabies get along and are safe. Safety is my number one priority. I am willingly to work with your schedule to ensure the meet n greet happens, however after 2 failed attempts to meet n greet, I will have to respectfully decline further services. Thank you and looking forward to caring and cuddles with your furbabies. I live on the top floor of a studio. Condo. My windows are safeguard so no furbaby can escape or be harmed. If there’s a specific schedule that needs to be followed (i.e dietary needs, meds, etc) i will need it in writing what that schedule will look like. I usually will wash all animal dishes prior to meals and ensure there’s adequate clean water supply at all times. I will provide walks, playtime, cuddles and medication(if necessary). I have great communication skills and will provide updates and photos upon request. I am near two parks where the dogs can play and walk while feeling safe.
“I highly recommend Kahren. She is very professional and provided daily update on our cat Leo, how is was eating and taking his medication. She was able to cover for another sitter who resigned while we were on vacation. Her kindness and attention toward Leo gave me a piece of mind and allowed me to enjoy the rest of my vacation”
About: Hi, I have ten years of experience caring for dogs. My beloved Rover (German Sherpeherd and Rottweiler mix) passed away last year due to ailment. He lived for 11 years. I also used to work in Nevada and was taking care of two Chihuahua beauties. Please be mindful of the fact that all dogs were rescue dogs. My Rover was rescued from Oakland. My co worker couldn't afford to take care of the Chihuahuas due to medical bills so I stepped in to help for the year I was in Nevada. Recently, on my vacation in Costa Rica, I managed to rescue a Beagle mix puppy from a construction worker who said he found her in a box on the street!!!! I asked my father in law if he had space for her in his house in Costa Rica and amazingly he agreed. Needless to say, I love dogs and have experience with small and big dogs. My wife, kids, and I share the same love for dogs.
“Cheryll was so warm and caring. I had no worries knowing he would spend some time with my pup. She arrived as scheduled and even stayed a little longer than requested. We will definitely use Cheryll again!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - San Bruno
Hiromi is the best! She is kind, trustworthy, and genuine. She showed care for our cats, Momo and Buddy, as well as their environment. She prioritizes our cat's safety, cleanliness, and wellbeing. She easy to communicate with, reliable, resourceful, and accommodating. We were very fortunate that Hiromi was available during our emergency booking. Will definitely book her services again because of her attentiveness and her quick response to our concerns. Thank you Hiromi for your kindness!
It was our first time working with Sandra, but not the last! She was a pleasure to work with, and our cats loved her (especially our girl cat, she kept climbing on her shoulder!). Very irresponsible, plenty of pictures, and great communications. Thank you, Sandra!
Andrea did such an amazing job caring for my two senior, fussy kitties. She is friendly, progressional and kind. The updates she provided me during my trip helped me feel like they were in good hands and I didn’t have to worry. So glad to have found her and I would highly recommend her for any of your pets.
Outstanding! I cannot recommend Natalie highly enough. She looked after our cats for three weeks and each day gave them excellent care with detailed reports and photos. She outfoxed an invading ant colony, offered to do laundry where cats had sickup-ed, cleaned floors of accidents, brought extra treats, supplies and litter from home.
Maria was amazing! My cat Henri is an anxious kitty; Maria knew exactly what to do to make him feel comfortable and safe! She played extensively with my cat (even brought her own toy) and followed instructions closely. She clearly loves cats and her photos of my cat and visit description clearly displayed that! Maria was so flexible and receptive to a last minute booking I had and I am so appreciative of it. I will be booking again with her in the future!
Yujie watched my two cats while I was away for almost 10 days, and I couldn't have asked for a better sitter. She was very communicative, sending updates and photos regularly, which gave me a lot of peace of mind while I was traveling. I would absolutely book with Yujie again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.

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.
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.
