“Alicia was a top-notch dog sitter. She sent us so many wonderful, high-quality photos of our dog Goldie, which was most appreciated! She was an excellent communicator. I felt like Goldie was in good hands, and I highly recommend her!”

“Sage was WONDERFUL! My little fur baby can be quite the handful (she’s very hyperactive), and Sage was so great with her! She constantly sent me pictures and assurances that my dog was doing great while I was away. She definitely helped ease the worry I had from being away from my baby!”

“Anna was a great help to all of us when she cared for our pups… CC & Gus. She was good with both dogs, kept them happy and safe plus well fed. She seemed to enjoy her time with them and sent pictures. She stayed with them while we were gone a couple of days which made it possible for us to enjoy our time since we knew the dogs were well taken care of. Thanks Anna!”

“Audrey was awesome! I am always super hesitant to leave my 2 year old Frenchie with anyone but I won’t hesitate to book Audrey again! She sent many updates, followed instructions, and took great care of Benny! Thanks Audrey.”

“Maria was amazing! She took great care of our three babies- and I know it can be a challenge with 2 senior dogs and a puppy with a lot of energy. She took them all on walks, played with and when we came home she had comforting dog music playing for them. She was very communicative, sent lots of pics of our buddies walking playing and sleeping. The house was immaculate when we returned. Highly recommend!”
“Ana was amazing she took banana on lots of walkies and was very good giving her all the love while we were gone on our trip I would definitely book again and recommend you do so if your going out of town.”

“Johnathan was exceptional with our little babes. He took great care of them and our house while we were away, highly recommend & would absolutely rebook again.”

“Courtney is absolutely wonderful! We never worry when she’s caring for our two cats. Her communication is excellent and our home is always spotless. It’s rare to find someone as kind, attentive and reliable as Courtney. Best of all, our animals are calm, happy and never stressed when we come home. If you want a truly worry free pet visit— book her!”


“Dee was great, once again! She took care of my dogs with ease, further gained the trust of my most fearful dog, followed instructions for my post-op dog, and took great care of the house. Thank you again!!”
“Our eperience with Jayna couldn't have been better! Jayna did way more than what was expected. Our baby girl (Lani) was spoiled and well taken care of. Jayna took Lani on her daily walks, snuggled her with blankets at night, sent photo updates of our pup twice a day, and left our home honestly, in better conditions than when we left it! Jayna went above an beyond by bringing in our mail, being on a look out for incoming packages, keeping our backyard grass clean, and leaving my kitchen counters spotless. Couldn't have asked for a better pet sitter. Thanks so much!”

“Tally was great with my chocolate lab who has separation anxiety. She was attentive and gave him lots of love and hugs. My house was immaculate when I came home after a 4 day trip. Highly recommend Tally!”

About: I have had my dog for over 6 years now, his name is Max and he is a Caucasian Shepherd/Ovcharka mix. He's a very big boy, I would add my old dog Sammy, he was a Beegle, but I was too young to care for him nor remember him all too well, but I will always remember the love I had and still have for him. I am a primary caregiver for some of my friends and family for their pets as well, I did not want to be compensated, they convinced me to make an account on here. I'm currently working semi full-time, meaning I am marked as a full-time worker, but they are not giving me my full hours so my time shifts from week to week. That is why I would like to be contacted a week in advance so, I can properly manage my schedule from week to week, whether it be house sitting, walking or just hanging out with the little fur dudes and dudettes. I can not provide in-home care as my current living situation can not provide a safe environment. Hopefully this will change soon, but I can provide a safe, clean and loving environment in comfort of your home since going to new places can be stressful depending on the pup or cat.
“Sarah did such an amazing job! She cared for Louie and Benjie like they were her own. Eye drops, vitamins, and all. They adored her, and the daily photo updates made it clear! House was clean, boys were happy. Definitely rebooking!”

“Anna was amazing, not only did she show up on time, but she sent me several check ins throughout the night. She made sure that I knew that my Furkid was happy and safe. She followed the directions I left for her to the T. Anna was extremely punctual and professional. I would highly recommend her to anyone who is in need of pet sitting. She was the epitome of a perfect pet sitter. I will definitely book her again ❤️”

“Cristen did a wonderful job. This was my first time doing Rover and I was anxious about it but she made it such a great experience. I also Can en back to a house that was in even better state than when I left it. The dogs loved her as well. She clearly loves dogs and knows what she’s doing. 10/10 would highly recommend. I plan to use her next time I need a sitter.”

San Carlos pet parents share their Rover experiences
This was the first time we used Jasmine as a dog sitter and the only thing I wish would be different is that we’d found her sooner. We were in a pinch with time, booking close to the last minute, but Jasmine came through amazingly. She was prompt to the meet and greet and asked great questions, listened and was clear in her communication. While we were gone, she gave us updates and let us know if anything happened of note. Our dog had an upset tummy and we were able to work through it and she got him feeling better soon. She also took great care of our house. Hope we get her to watch our pup again!!

Jade was very attentive to our instructions and always took care of our pup. She is very attentive and takes her responsibilities seriously and will make sure your dog is well taken care of. Communication is top notch. We had a minor situation and she well documented to me what had happened and already had a solution by the time she reached out to me. I felt as though I was taking care of my pup myself!

Matthew stayed at my home for a few days to watch my cat, Boogie, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. During that time, Boogie had a health issue come up, and Matthew was incredibly attentive and communicative throughout. He kept me updated, handled everything with care, and made a stressful situation much easier to manage while I was away. I truly appreciate the trust and responsibility he showed, not only with my cat but also with my home. I would absolutely book with Matthew again for future trips and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.

Tara was super helpful! She was kind, laid back, and thorough, making sure she had all of the information needed to take good care of our two dogs. She sent consistent updates and photos of the dogs, which we really appreciated! I highly recommend Tara, the dogs loved her!

Natalie was the best! It was our first time using a house sitter for our dogs and she surpassed expectations. She was such a great communicator and made sure she had a good understanding of what needed to be done. Definitely plan to use her services again and I would highly recommend! :)

Stella went above and beyond when caring for our pups. We were very nervous about leaving our dogs for an extended period but Stella eliminated all worries immediately and exceeded expectations. It is obvious that Stella genuinely cares for and loves animals, from the way she talks about her own dog to the way she consistently showed up for our dogs. In addition to the day to day routine, Stella took our dogs to the beach, bathed them, and left the house in immaculate condition. She is a fabulous communicator, sending photos and updates daily as well as letting us know if she had any questions or concerns which we really appreciated. Coming home to a clean house and happy pups is a great feeling! I would recommend Stella to all and look forward to booking with her in the future (I know my dogs do too)!

Alex was great with my senior dog and puppy - they can be a handful. I appreciate her careful attention to detail and keeping me updated on them. It’s so nice to have a reliable person watch your house and pets while you are gone, knowing they do better in their own environment. I highly recommend her.

Daryll Ann J , and her husband are fantastic. They are fantastic with Madonna . I'm unfortunately not in such a good place or situation and I don't want to lose the place I am currently staying at due to Madonna's barking . I look forward to booking them hopefully twice a week while I'm at work or if I have unusual work schedule .
