“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 😍🤩”

“Megan takes amazing care of our girl. The pictures and updates she sends are just such a comfort when we’re away from home. One picture from this most recent trip with our dog’s huge, full-teeth smile had us laughing out loud but also just made us so happy that she was that happy while her family was away. We feel so incredibly lucky to have Megan as our dog sitter. Thank you, Megan!!”

About: I had my own very cherished Mini Pinscher Leah that passed away a few years ago. Since then, I’ve really missed the companionship of pets but am not yet ready for a commitment after that grief. I cat sit for my sister regularly, and am looking to be of help to any families/pet owners in my local community whose pets I can treat with care and respect. I am available to walk any dogs after work ends at 6 PM and am happy to have any pets board with me on the weekends! I have a fenced yard and no pets or babies in my home, just myself and two adult roommates. I’m ready to customize my house to be safe and suited for any pet that will be boarding here, and can walk dogs in my neighborhood at any time.

“I was in a bind because I had to go on a work trip. So this was my first time having Marlene take care of my doggies. I am always reluctant to have new people in my home, taking care of my babies. But, after meeting her both I and my little guys felt comfortable. I returned to find my little guys very happy and well taken care of. While I was gone, she sent pictures each day. She was also very responsive whenever I reached out. I would definitely recommend Marlene and will be calling on her again in the future.”


“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!”



“Jessica is our favorite! Kind, thorough, prompt, knowledgeable and follows directions. I can tell that she really loves animals. We 💯 trust her with our 5 kitties, including our special needs senior. Thank you for the great communication while we’re away, Jessica!”


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!

“Nayeli was a life saver! We had to find a Rover during our Spring Break cancellation and Nayeli rose to the occasion. She was very communicative, thorough and loving with our fur babies. When a hiccup with our travels came up, Nayeli was more than willing to stop by again after the job was completed. I really appreciated her notes and photos. I would love to hire Nayeli again!”


About: “I’ve been caring for dogs and cats for over 3 years, from playful puppies to senior pets who need extra attention. Friends, neighbors, and family often trust me to walk, feed, bathe, and provide loving companionship to their pets. I’m patient, reliable, and treat every pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while their owners are away.” “I work full-time at Tesla, so my pet care availability is from Wednesday afternoons through Saturday mornings. During that time, I’m fully flexible for walks, drop-ins, playtime, and overnight care. I make sure your pets get the same dependable care and attention that I give to my own responsibilities at work.” “Your pet’s safety and comfort always come first. I make sure walks are secure, using leashes and harnesses properly and avoiding unsafe areas. At home, I keep a clean and pet-friendly environment where they can feel relaxed and cared for. I treat every pet with patience and respect, building trust so they feel safe and happy while you’re away. You can count on me to keep you updated with photos and messages, so you’ll always know your furry friend is in good hands.”

“Darren has been walking our border collie daily for the last week while our primary walker is away. We're so grateful for his timely, concise communication and the peace of mind that not only is our pup safe, but is getting the mental and physical stimulations he needs.”


About: Hi ! I’m new to rover but I’ve worked with cats and dogs for about 7 years. I have worked at animal shelter and I’m currently vet tech for 2 years now. I have 3 pets of my own 2 big dogs and 1 cat. I have experience animal behavior / body language and animals that have medical needs. Feel free to message me if you have any questions ! 💞 🐾 I currently work 3 days a week at a vet clinic in Berkeley. My schedule does change from time to time but I have weekends off and some days during the week. I’m willing to try to give the best care I can. I am very compassionate about animals and willing to take the time to get to know your fur baby. I’m more than welcome to send updates or pictures of your fur baby.

“Natalia is amazing and she was great with my dog! She was punctual and responsive and also sent great pics of my dg while we were out of town. Will totally use her services again! Thank you!”


“Nicole made it through four wonderful days of D0gen care before she was sadly felled by strep throat and had to terminate her care. I had made back-up arrangements which she handled with great responsibility so that Dogen suffered almost no trauma as her sudden departure! He's now happy and so am I, and just hoping Nicolde gets well soon!”


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!

Katherine H.
“Katherine is someone I would trust my entire family with, human and animal alike. She grew up with pets in her home and treated them with the utmost respect and care.

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.”
