“Kira was very communicative and I appreciated the photos while I was out and about. My dog quickly trusted being with her the moment I dropped him off. Highly recommend her”
“Vanessa did a great job with Rex. She was easy to work with for drop off and pick up even with my odd weekend schedule. She gave a lot of photos and took him on plenty of walks and her dog is super friendly.”
“Can’t thank these fearless guys enough! I really appreciated them taking on my puppy for the day so I could take an exam. They took care of my sweet but handful of a 11week border collie/Aussie mix. I know he wasn’t easy and even had some accidents. I felt so bad but they were incredibly nice and understanding. True dog lovers and kind to the owners too :)”
“Martha was the greatest sitter for my little furbaby for two days during the busy easter weekend. I was visiting SF and sadly I had an occasion that I couldn’t bring my dog with me, so I spent such a long time trying to find a good sitter, and she was the right choice! She suggested meet and greet first, which was such a kind gesture. and she was always willing to accommodate my time and schedule, being flexible and understanding and reliable, while caring my dog clean and calm. As a small terrier my dog has weak rear legs and weak respiratory system so he coughs sometimes if there is stimuli, and I told her about it, and regarding those needs she was happily open to make things more comfortable for my dog. Thank you Martha! Wish you many more years of health, happiness and fun with dogs!”
“Charles is an incredible dog sitter for our English Cocker Spaniel, Murphy. He shows up on time, feeds him as needed and delivers a very happy dog to us after a full day of play, walks and love. Murphy really connects with him and we are grateful for Charles. We have worked with him twice and we’ll work with him again. Thanks Charles!”
“Eileen was great with our little guy, very thoughtful about the intro to her sweet dog, super-responsive, and sent photos and updates throughout the evening. She was extremely kind and flexible when our event ran long and our pickup timing changed. We’ll definitely use her again!”
“Mayan was wonderful. She was able to watch my pups with a few days advance notice, took them out to the park and sent a ton of pictures for updates. Very responsive and communicative, would def hire again.”
“Jason took Zumi for the day and I think she had a great time. Sometimes she can be stressed in new environments with new street noises but when I picked her she was calm and seemed like she had a great day. Grateful that Jason was available last minute for a booking!”
“Anthony is truly an amazing dog sitter. He cares for Nia as though she was his own dog, providing her with enrichment activities and taking her on adventures. It is a relief to know she is having such a fun day while I’m at work.”
“David took care of my dog Cheech when I needed someone to watch him for the day last minute while I was at work. He is wonderful!! Cheech had a great time with David and Gracie; I even had a hard time getting Cheech to walk home because he kept wanting to go back to David's. Thanks David, Cheech and I will see you again soon!”
“Dino had such a great time with Christine and her partner! He came home happy and tired from their long hike. Christine was so helpful in watching him last minute for us, and sending updates throughout the day, I’ll definitely book with them again!”
“Matthew took great care of Jupiter, giving him plenty of walks and downtime! He is communicative and responsive, and I’d absolutely book him to watch Jupiter again :)”
“Tien was so sweet and Ellie, my pup, had the time of her life. I got so many pics and videos of her adventures. She saved my life, taking her last minute when I had to work and didn't realize the doggy daycare only opened at 7am Mon-Fri. I'm so grateful for Tien!”
“Milo was absolutely incredible! I needed last-minute sitting (literally had to book an hour before), and he saved the day big time! He was super flexible and accommodating with all my weird timing needs. He was great with my incredibly anxious cockapoo. He took her on multiple walks in the day because she has a lot of energy. He also sent me so many pictures and was super communicative. It was my first time using rover and having a stranger sit my dog, so I really appreciated all of the updates and photos. My dog was so happy and comfortable with him despite having separation anxiety. Thank you so much Milo! I’d give 6 stars if I could!”
“Luna was awesome! Our dog Leeloo seemed to have had a great time and wasn't even dying to come back home. We are glad she had such a good day and that we found someone nearby who can look after her.”
About: I grew up with dogs and feel very comfortable taking care of them. I don’t currently own one but I have a lot of flexibility and availability in my schedule to dog sit. I’m currently studying for an exam so can’t focus full-time on my business. Therefore, I have tons of availability right now and it’s easy to create my own schedule. I live walking distance from a park so one thing that is easy for me to do is dog walk in my neighborhood. I would also ensure to have all needed information from the owner if I am sitting at their home or any tips on their go-to parks in their neighborhood.

Mayah is an outstanding dog sitter who provided exceptional care for my rescue pup. She maintained a thoughtful schedule with regular walks throughout the day and kept me updated with plenty of photos, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away. What impressed me most was how quickly she connected with my dog - I could see from her updates that my pup felt comfortable and happy in her care. It's clear that Mayah has a natural way with dogs and genuinely cares about their wellbeing. I wouldn't hesitate to book her services again and would highly recommend her to other pet parents looking for reliable, caring pet care.
Marina loves dogs and takes great care of Alfie, my Old English Sheepdog. She’ll post several photos of walks around Potrero Hill and her home through out the day and is always responsive. He is always around a good set of dogs and he looks happy and tired when I pick him up.
Hannah did such a great job with our 10mo mini goldendoodle, Lincoln. She is incredibly responsive and would give us detailed daily write ups + pictures on how their day went together. Lincoln was always so excited to see her each morning for daycare. By the end, Lincoln and her sweet dog Billy were basically siblings. She also did a great job reinforcing commands and things we were working on with him as he is still learning. He would always come home happy and well exercised. This was our first time using rover and the quality of care Hannah provided really exceeded my expectations. Thank you Hannah, Lincoln will miss you!
Charles accommodated Simba at the very last minute when we were visiting for the week. He was able to take care of Simba for a few hours while we went to grab dinner at a not so pet friendly establishment. Charles’ communication was prompt and very professional. Simba was happy to see him and ready to go inside with Charles as soon as they met which was very comforting for me.
Lauren was quick to respond to my last minute request to watch my puppy as I had to go into work. I’m very protective over her, and Lauren truly made me feel so comfortable! She provided updates throughout her stay & I could tell Penny was in great care. Her Frenchie Penelope is also adorable. Will be using Lauren in the future!
Kimberly was soo great. We traveled to San Francisco from San Diego and needed a dog sitter during a Padres/Giants game. Kimberly was so communicative, sent photos and updates and loved our dog who has some separation anxiety. We are so glad we found her and recommend her 100%.
Salla was fantastic! She watched our dog as well as our friend's dog, who are opposites in every way (size, personality, etc.). They both seemed to have amazing days with her. She was communicative and incredibly helpful in dropping our dogs off at our apartment. Would book daycare with her again!
Arianna was wonderful with our dog! She introduced herself in a calm, friendly way that instantly built rapport. She’s flexible with scheduling and mindful of the dogs’ safety and comfort. We felt completely at ease knowing our pup was in her care. Highly recommend!
Tara was amazing with my puppy, Pennie! She was super understanding and accommodating, and really made an effort to include my pup in her daily routine. Her dog was so well behaved and kept my puppy entertained all day. I loved getting the picture and update texts—it was such a relief knowing my puppy was happy and having fun. I would definitely recommend Tara for dog sitting!!
