Elizabeth is the BEST! She went above and beyond when it came to taking care of Olympus. You can tell she really cares for the animals she watches. She asked all the right questions and her updates were thorough and dare I say hilarious because she truly captured our crazy cat’s personality. Two things that I believe speak to her level of care: 1.) we have a cat who only drinks water out of human cups instead of his own water bowl. She reported that she filled his water cup up to the tippy top everyday, and sure enough when we returned his cup was filled to the tippy top to help Oly avoid whisker fatigue 🥹. And 2.) she brought her own personal Polaroid camera and left us a gorgeous portrait of our cat. I mean… does it get better than that!? Of course, this is in addition to care we requested which included twice daily feedings/litter scoops/play/cuddle time, which she always arrived on time for. BOOK ELIZABETH! We loved her, so did our cat. 10/10, five stars, all the thumbs up!!

Leaving our beloved pets with someone new is always a challenging experience, but Samantha made it so much easier for us. From the very beginning, she showed an exceptional level of kindness and care towards our cat. Her friendly and professional demeanor immediately put us at ease. Samantha's communication was outstanding. She kept us updated with daily photos and updates, which was incredibly reassuring and allowed us to enjoy our time away without worrying about our furry friend. She didn't just perform the basic tasks of feeding and cleaning; she spent quality time with our cat, ensuring that our cat was happy and engaged. Her dedication to our cat’s well-being went above and beyond our expectations. Overall, we are extremely satisfied with the service provided by Samantha and would not hesitate to recommend her to other cat owners. I definitely plan to use her services again in the future. We are extremely grateful for her services and will definitely be entrusting our cat to her care in the future. Thank you, Samantha, for being such a wonderful caretaker!

I have been booking with Angela for months now, and I will continue to book with her. She is the best! When I come home my cats are happy and calm because Angela takes such good care of them while I’m away. She has been so patient and kind with my shy kitty, and she also keeps my very outgoing kitty busy and entertained as well. Angela is amazing, my cats and I are so lucky to have found her. Thank you Angela!!

Really please with all of Janki’s visits! She was really sweet and knew how to interact with my kitty. Mhysa can be a bit timid at first, but she got lots of playtime and attention :) Janki was also very responsive through messages as well. Mhysa somehow knocked out both of the cords to her feeder and water fountain. Even though Janki was scheduled to do her visit later in the day that day, she was able to come by within a short timeframe notice to plug them back in and do the visit earlier, which I really appreciated.

It was truly wonderful having Stephanie take care of my large hound. She walked, played, and brushed him with such care and attention that he always returned home happier than when he left. I highly recommend her to anyone in need of a caring and reliable pet sitter.

I highly recommend Anjali to anyone who needs cat services. Our cat Gadget lost her brother of 12 years and we weren't sure how she was going to respond being left alone for the first time ever. Anjali offered her services to cat sit our us for over a week, where she monitored her wellbeing, medicated her food, and kept her entertained and comfortable. Gadget isn't the friendliest of cats as she is very shy, and became more shy after her brother's passing, but she immediately opened up to Anjali (treats helped). Anjali absolutely kept us updated with adorable pics and videos to track her progress. Thanks to Anajli, we were able to learn how independent Gadget has become and has given us confidence that we can continue traveling without concern.

Cynthia is great with Muddy. She took the time to understand all of our instructions and followed them exactly. But most important, Muddy loves spending time with her. He’s a Covid puppy and takes a while to warm up to new people, but he seemed to like Cynthia from our first meet and greet. I would highly recommend hiring Cynthia to take care of your pet!

Summer was amazing with our energetic pup Cusco! She came in for several drop-in visits over the weekend to let our pup out, feed him, give him medicine, and help him release his puppy energy. She sent us consistent updates with the cutest pictures. We would absolutely book Summer again and highly recommend her to others!

About: I'm an animal lover who has been a SF resident for several years. I'm passionate about pets and staying active, and I've combined these interests into a rewarding role as a dog walker. My love for animals started at a young age. This genuine affection for animals has naturally drawn me to provide them with the care, exercise, and companionship they deserve. I firmly believe in the importance of both physical activity and emotional connection for pets. I'm dedicated to ensuring your pet not only gets the exercise they need but also the love and attention that are vital for their well-being. San Francisco offers a rich tapestry of neighborhoods to explore, and I take pride in safely navigating them with your pet. Whether it's a leisurely park stroll or an energetic beach run, I tailor each outing to meet your pet's unique preferences. Recognizing that pet owners often have busy lives, I'm here to help, whether for daily walks or occasional pet-sitting. Rest assured, I treat every pet in my care as if they were my own, understanding the trust you place in me. I appreciate the chance to spend time with animals and assist my neighbors. If you're seeking a reliable, dedicated, and compassionate dog walker in SF, I'm here to ensure your pet thrives with exercise, love, and attention in this vibrant city. Let's embark on a delightful journey of pet care together. Your pet's happiness is my top priority, and I'm excited to be their trusted companion I usually like to take walks early morning, around lunch time and an early evenings during the week. I work remotely so I have a very flexible schedule. I also try to make time on weekends too. When at a pet owners home I treat it with care and respect. I focus on making sure the pet is comfortable and closely follow any care instructions. At my home I try to make the pets feel welcomed and provide special attention as they adjust to the new space. My community has an open park area that I often walk them in

Sarah (from TrustedHouseSitters): https://www.trustedhousesitters.com/house-and-pet-sitters/united-states/california/san-francisco/l/2938530/ Ashley and Logan were the perfect sitters for my energetic cat and anxious pup. They worked to find a system and schedule that fit my dog’s needs and kept me updated with pictures to ease my own anxiety too. They left the space clean and tidy and my pets happy and healthy - would welcome them back anytime ☺️.

Pet parents in San Francisco love booking pet care with sitters on Rover. Booking in-home care for your pets is likely more affordable than you think—even in a city like San Francisco. Curious to learn more about how much it may cost to book a drop-in visit with a sitter on Rover? Check out our average pet sitting rates so you can get an idea before starting a conversation with a sitter near you in the San Francisco area.

Whether you’ll be gone for a day or a week, Rover has your back when it comes to giving your pets the care they need. Drop-in visits offer your pets the chance to stay home, in the environment that they like best. It frees you from burdening family or friends with the obligation to come by and give ‘em some love, and makes it so you never have to stress out your pets by taking them to a noisy kennel. In-home care is perfect for cats—your sitter will come to your home, scoop, feed, and play with your feline to keep those purrs coming, even when you’re away. Drop-in visits aren’t just for cats though, you can book a qualified sitter to watch all kinds of pets, from reptiles and fish to birds and bunnies—whatever kind of pet you have, there’s a sitter on Rover who can’t wait to care for them. You can of course book drop-in visits for your dog, too, especially if they’re the independent type. This will give you the peace of mind of knowing they got a potty break and some playtime while you’re away, without having to lock them in a cage at a kennel. San Francisco is a great city to find a drop-in sitter for your pet because it’s full of animal-friendly locales and and a community of pet sitters on Rover.

San Francisco is a booming city—the second most-densely populated in the U.S, in fact—but it isn’t just full of humans, it’s full of their beloved pets too. We love how pet-friendly this incredibly city by the bay is, and it’s the perfect place not only to own a pet, but to book a trusted sitter through Rover. The city is equally famous for miles of rolling hills as it is for classic cable cars to help visitors and natives alike navigate this fascinating city. San Franciscans enjoy miles of amazing off-leash dog parks and free-roaming beaches to let your canine companion blow off some steam while making new friends. No matter where you live in San Fran, from Parkside to Nob Hill, there’s a sitter listed on Rover right in your neighborhood. That’s because this city is packed full of animal lovers, so you’re bound to find a great match for you and your pet on pretty much every block.

Getting started on Rover is simple: type in your zip code, choose drop-in visits as your service, browse 100s of sitters near you, and begin a conversation with your pet’s perfect match.
