About: Since I was a kid, I have always loved pets. When I was 11 years old, I was the one who fed our four dogs. I loved spending time with them—I even taught them how to sit, lie down, give a high five, and more. Every time I came home from school, we would play together. Back in 2020, I rescued my deaf cat, Lili, after seeing her attacked by a stray dog in our town. She even had a broken bone, and I couldn’t just leave her like that, so I decided to adopt her. As time passed, I didn’t realize that my cat family was growing. Now, I have rescued 2 cats and i have been feeding 13 stray cats that goes in our backyard It’s just sad that I had to leave them with my dad in our home country because I had to move to the United States. We have 3 dogs, 2 indoor cats, 1 stray dog and 13 stray cats that i have been feeding. I am not currently working because I’m still looking for a job, so I have plenty of free time and a flexible schedule that i could spend with your pets Right now, we don’t have any pets at home, but I always leave cat food outside our door in case a stray cat passes by, so they can have something to eat. I can walk, play with, teach tricks, and even bathe your pets if you'd like!

About: My husband & I have been dog parents for nearly 20 years, caring for our 1st furbaby Gelato for almost 14 years (he passed 3 years ago :( ) and currently caring for his sister from another mister Nutella for the past 5 :). We know how much trust it takes to leave your pup with someone else because they’re truly part of the family. We provide a calm, loving home environment with plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and cuddles. We’re happy to follow your dog’s normal routine and accommodate feeding schedules, medications, and special instructions. We can only care for a small number of dogs at a time so every pup gets plenty of individual attention. We do have a dog at home so we will only be accepting dog-friendly dogs. My husband & I will be watching your pup! I work twice a week in the office but my husband will be home full time. We are available during the weekend full time based on our availability. We have a fence front and back yard. As long as your dog isn’t prone to jumping fences we can leave them in the front yard for some outside play time. If not, we have a backyard with a doggy door where they can go in and out all day. Backyard is fully secured.

About: For over 13 years, I’ve been taking care of dogs! I have 3 dogs at home myself, a Havanese poodle and two German shepherds! My dogs are on the older side and aren’t able to go on walks as much so I wanted to join Rover. When I’m away from home and miss my dogs, also volunteer at the animal shelter to do doggie day out and bring shelter dogs for walks and a pup cup. I pay careful attention to body language for dogs to make them feel comfortable. I just graduated from UCI so I’ve been readjusting back at home. When I get the chance, I love going out and trying the next big thing! When I’m home, I love playing with my dogs and snuggling up with them because they’re so cute I know safety and trust is the utmost importance so I will be sure to communicate with you if issues were to arise. I make sure that the area is familiar, safe and enclosed before letting a dog off-leash and walks are always on-leash. I have trained multiple dogs to learn basic commands and signals with treats and positive reinforcements.

“Ale did some dog walking for us a few days a week for several weeks, and I really enjoyed working with her. She was dependable, very communicative, and just generally great with our dogs. One of our dogs is reactive and she really didn't shy away from any challenges. I told her some of the issues that could come up, and she made sure to let me know how things went with those concerns in mind. She's a true dog lover, and it was so helpful to me to know that our dogs were safe, well cared for, and enjoying some great company while I was at work. We definitely hope to work with Ale again!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats of different kinds. My love for pets have been for as long as I can remember! Growing up, I have personally cared for medium-sized dogs, specifically a German shepherd and Pitbull, and also 3 different cats. I recently have lived in a house with 5 pit bulls and helped walk, feed and bathe each one for over a year. I currently do not own a pet, but am itching to own one soon. For now, I am happy to assist in bringing comfort and joy into your pet’s life. Anything to help make a family's home easier is what I strive for. I am currently working full time, but have a flexible work schedule that can accommodate to feeding/walking times. I am looking for anyone interested in board & care at my home (limit 2 dogs), occasional overnight or drop in pet-sitting, dog walks, feeding and/or bathing care for your pet. I live in a house with a fenced yard. I offer a safe space to care for your pet. I live with my husband who is also a pet lover. It will help us get out of the house for necessary walks and overall care. Please let me know if your dog is friendly with other dogs as I can host up to two dogs at a time.

About: My family has had our dog Scooby since he was 3 weeks old and he is now 6 years old. I’ve trained him since he was young how to behave and he knows plenty of tricks too! I also used to dog sit/babysit for family members often. I currently have an internship and am busy Tuesdays-Thursdays but I’m available on Mondays, Fridays, and weekends when needed. My schedule can be flexible so let me know and I might be able to accommodate! I prefer to travel to clients within the East Bay Area. Safety is always my top priority in mind, for both your pet and myself. I understand that some dogs need time to adjust to new people and I always want to create a comfortable environment for them.

Zoey is absolutely amazing! She comes to my home twice a week to walk my dog, Benicio, and I couldn’t be happier with her. She is always on time, dependable, attentive, and incredibly friendly. It’s clear that she genuinely cares about Benicio and treats him with so much love and patience. Most importantly, Benicio absolutely loves her! He gets so excited to see her, which gives me so much peace of mind knowing he’s in great hands when I’m not home. Zoey is trustworthy, professional, and goes above and beyond to make sure Benicio gets a great walk and plenty of attention. I highly recommend Zoey to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and wonderful dog walker. We’re so lucky to have found her! 🐾❤️

Jonathan was fantastic with Roman this weekend! His communication was excellent from start to finish. He kept me updated throughout the walk and sent photos and videos so I could see Roman having a great time. He also made sure Roman was fed and taken care of exactly as instructed. It's clear Jonathan genuinely cares about the pets he looks after, and I felt completely at ease knowing Roman was in good hands. Would absolutely book him again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable, attentive rover!
