“Jessica was very good with our cats and communicated with us regularly. Good to have peace of mind while on vacation. Highly recommend Jessica and will ask for her on our next trip.”


“Angelique is the BEST!!! I have an elderly 14 year old Pitmix with high dietary supplement and high care needs. My character-judgung do g took to ger instantly with her loving animal vibe. She was loving, patient and took pics with sweet notes to settle any of my anxiousness about leaving her. She also took amazing care of my shy cat and my mouse. And she did small chores for a minimal fee. Angelique is dependable and when I got home I was so impressed on how she maintained my home and furbabies. We would hire her again as we would look no further!!! Thanks , Angelique 😍🤩”


“Angelica was the best pet sitter we could ask for. She took such good care of our baby pickle. We got daily update and so many great pictures and an amazing video. We could tell she really cared about pickle and pickle loved her. We will 100% book her if we ever need a sitter again. 10/10 would recommend”


“Marlene just did the first drop in visit for our two dogs. She was very communicative, punctual, and made sure to secure the house when she left. Plus it was a very rainy day, and she got the dogs all cleaned up when they came in from the yard. Glad we found a reliable person.”


“I always have a piece of mind when I travel knowing Vanessa will check in on my cat Snorri. The visit notes and photos are especially thoughtful. Overall very happy with her care!”


“Kacie did a great job with drop in visits for our two cats while we were out of town. She provided updates and pictures each day and it was nice knowing the cats were in good hands. I highly recommend booking with her!”


“Virginia was such a great help to my cats. They are pretty low maintenance and just need some love and attention, and she gave it to them. I will definitely book her again.”



About: As a kid my parents took in some stray dogs and that’s when I fell in love. I’m a former German shepherd owner. I got the puppy when she was 8 weeks old and raised her. Took her on many hikes, trips, swims, and adventures. She was my best friend. My road dog. I currently have a full time job but I’m home by noon most days. Sometimes earlier sometimes later. Afternoons and evenings work best for me. I have a fenced backyard with a lawn and a nice sized front yard with a lawn. There’s a park within walking distance in my neighborhood. My neighborhood is walkable and you’ll see many people walking to and from work and with their families and pets.

“We had an incredible experience with our Caitlin in checking in on our kitties! Not only was she consistently communicative, providing updates and photos that gave us peace of mind, but she also displayed remarkable flexibility in accommodating our schedule changes. Our kitties were clearly well-cared for and content upon our return. We highly recommend her services and appreciate the outstanding care she provided. Thank you for going above and beyond!”


About: Hi, Meghan here, I have always been a dog-lover, and currently have a lovable fluffy husky. I live in Oakland with my mom, a fellow dog-lover! I allow our furry friends on the couch, but can also work on furniture-boundaries if your pooch isn't allowed on furniture at your own home. I work from home, so I'll be home most of the day during the weekdays. The longest your pup will be home alone (with my pups) is around 5 hours. I am comfortable with big dogs. I can give medications, and can brush your pooch as well! Here's a little about us: Meghan has been a dog-lover since birth. She grew up with dogs of all shapes and sizes. Treesa loves pups of all sizes! Meet my pets: Just the dogs! About my yard We have a fenced backyard. My experience administering medication We are comfortable administering oral medication. **We do have a Potty Clause. We understand accidents happen, and are very forgiving, as pups are often excited and can't help themselves at first. However, we have occasionally had extreme repeat offenders. We take dogs on the basis that they are potty trained. If we feel there are an excessive number of indoor incidents, we will let you know, and ask for a $10 additional fee (per week, or fraction thereof), to cover the cost of laundry and cleaning supplies.** Thanks! I work from home so your pup will hang out with me and Winston at home, join us on walks, and get to spend the day with us! I have a fenced yard. Security gate at my back door means fresh air without escape opportunity. We're working on installing a dog door, so that should happen later this year!

About: As avid dog lovers with over 15 years of experience, we've cared for various breeds, including our own Shih Tzu who sadly passed away last year. We also frequently looked after our brother’s French Bulldog, who happily reunited with our Shih Tzu, and a Siberian Husky, along with other family dogs. Living in a pet-friendly community with ample grassy areas, your pups will have plenty of space to roam and play. Before your drop-off, we'd love to arrange a meet and greet to acquaint ourselves with you and your furry companions! This is not our first time on Rover. We have been dog-sitting on Rover for about 3 years. The first two years were under a different account with our mom because of age. So we did it together with our parents and were very happy with both animal and human clientele who were just as happy with our services. If you would like to see reviews from then I can send over those Rover Account details as well! We understand the importance of ensuring both you and your beloved pets have peace of mind while you're away, and we're dedicated to providing them with a safe and enjoyable experience under our care! We are currently completely free, accommodating both weekdays and weekends. Our days will be completely catered to the needs of your babies. We understand the importance of convenience, offering flexible pick-up and drop-off times, including same-day services. Whether it's a weekday, weekend, or holiday, we're here to ensure seamless care for your beloved pets. We offer a fenced backyard patio and expansive grassy areas within our community, and we're happy to provide photos of the surroundings upon request prior to booking. Alternatively, we can arrange a meet and greet so you can explore our dog-friendly and secure neighborhood firsthand. Our area boasts ample walking spaces and provides poop bags for your convenience. For crate-trained dogs, we recommend bringing their crate to ensure their comfort. Additionally, please bring any items that will help your dog feel at ease and secure during their stay. If your dog requires medication, be sure to bring it along. While we do offer some dog treats, feel free to bring your pup's favorites to ensure they feel right at home. Your pets' comfort and safety are our top priorities, and we strive to make their stay as enjoyable as possible!

Meghan M.

“My dog fell in love with Meghan at first sight, even though she's usually slow to warm up to new people. Pepper, my miniature dachshund, is always excited to see Meghan, whether for a walk or an overnight. When I pick her up Pepper is happy and tired. We call Meghan's house a doggie resort as a joke, because it's filled with toys and treats. Pepper's happy and I am, because I know my dog is cared for and loved (not to mention spoiled) when I can't be there. We both trust Meghan and would recommend her to anyone who is looking for a dog person to love and care for their pup when they need help.”


Jasmine & Gabriel & Sean H.
“Jasmine was amazing and wonderful dog sitter. My dog usually has anxiety and nervous around strangers, however he was very calm and happy with Jasmine. She took him for walks and cuddles with him. I received videos and many photos daily which gave me a piece of mind that he’s being well taken care. I highly recommend her and absolutely will rebook with her again!”


Arlene mae E.
