About: I’m a student looking to help out with some local pet care and housesitting while i’m home for the summer. I’m vegan, I live alone, and I genuinely love animals and have a lot of flexibility with my schedule so I'm more than happy to keep your pets company, stick to their regular routines, daily walks, and make sure everything is taken care of. I'll always send plenty of photo updates too so you know they're doing great. I've taken care of dogs and cats for neighboring families and friends for many years, so I'm super comfortable handling pets with various different personalities and needs. I’m home for the summer and my schedule is incredibly open and flexible right now. Since I don't work a job, I have plenty of free time during the week and on weekends to hang out with your pets, stick to their routines, and make sure they're taken care of as if they are my own. Safety is the main thing for me. I always double-check locks and gates, follow whatever feeding or walking instructions you leave, and keep a close eye on them. I've watched dogs and cats for family and friends for the past two years, so I know what kind of things can go wrong and how to keep everyone happy and safe.
About: Dogs have been part of my life since I was 10. I've cared for everything from toy breeds to large breeds, and neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me for years to walk, feed, play with, and check in on their pets. Every size and energy level is welcome here, including puppies and senior dogs, and I'm happy to give oral medications on schedule (I don't administer injections). Safety comes first: dogs stay leashed on walks, your instructions get followed to the letter, and I make a point of knowing where the nearest emergency vet is. My afternoons are flexible, which makes me a great fit for midday and after-work walks and drop-in visits. You'll hear from me on every single visit - photos, our GPS-tracked route, distance covered, and notes on how your dog did, because I'd want that same peace of mind. Let's set up a quick Meet & Greet so your pup and I can get acquainted first. My afternoons are flexible, so weekday middays and after-work hours are when I'm most available for walks and drop-in visits, and weekends are wide open. I keep my Rover calendar updated daily and reply to messages within minutes. For regular clients, I'm glad to hold a standing weekly slot on the same days and times each week so your dog's routine stays predictable. Most of my care happens in your home, so respecting your space comes first. Written instructions get followed exactly, doors and gates stay secured, everything is left the way I found it, and your address and entry details are never shared with anyone. On walks, dogs stay leashed the entire time, I stick to routes I know well, bring water on warm days, and check paws and coat afterward. Before the first visit I make sure I have your vet's contact information and the location of the nearest emergency clinic. After every visit you'll get photos and a written recap, so you always know exactly how your dog is doing.

“My malinois warmed up to Meg immediately. I wouldn’t trust just anyone with my dog since he’s 95 pounds and can be prone to hypervigilance, but Meg is calm, knowledgeable, and intuitive with animals. I feel totally comfortable with her.”

About: Living in Salt Lake City, my Jack Russell, Chuy, and I love taking full advantage of the local parks for daily runs and outdoor fun! At my home, your pup will enjoy complete freedom—whether that means diving into a giant basket of toys or curling up for a relaxing nap on the sofa or a plush dog bed. Having grown up around animals, caring for pets is second nature to me. I treat every guest like family, ensuring a safe, fun, and comfortable environment tailored to your dog’s unique personality. Feel free to reach out with any questions—Chuy and I can’t wait to meet you and your beloved pup! I'm currently on a sabbatical and so I have a lot of free time to take care of your pets, go on long walks or house sit. My current apartment has a fenced in yard with parks near by for long walks or runs. Pets are also allowed to to go on the couch for cuddles.
“Savannah is great with Goose. She is also excellent at communicating. We appreciate her help with walking Goose while we were away. We hope we can book with Savannah again in the future.”

About: We’re an engaged couple living in East Palo Alto and looking for more opportunities to spend quality time with animals! We’ve been trusted dog and cat sitters for friends and family for years, and recently decided to give Rover a try. We’d love to provide your pet with extra love, attention, and care while you’re away or taking some time for yourself. We can’t wait to meet your furry family member! 🥰 One of our favorite things to do is go on walks together. We always joke and say we’re meant to have a pet, and we’re sure we will have our own one day. We walk daily during our lunch breaks and each evening after work. We’d love to take your pet with us! We live in a house with a private fenced backyard. We have no pets or kids in our house and we plan to take care of one pet/family at a time so we can give them our full attention and make sure they are as comfortable as can be.
“Cameron takes such great care of our Dash. He was very patient in building rapport with our boy and getting to know him. Dash looks forward to his walks with Cameron, who is reliable and kind!”

“Emma was amazing with our dog, he always seemed relaxed and happy when we came home after his walk with Emma. She was communicative and flexible and we really appreciated her kind care of our dog!”

About: 🔆Welcome to a small part of my life I started by taking care of my neighbors’ pets as a hobby, which helped me discover how much I enjoy this work. Later, I found the Rover app, where I saw a great opportunity to care for and meet dogs of different breeds. Currently, I have two years of experience providing love and care to pets as if they were part of my family. I deeply love animals and have always felt a special connection with them. I carry my dog, Cejas, who passed away, in my heart forever, and her memory inspires me to provide the best care to the pets that come into my home. I’m passionate about caring for pets with special needs, whether it’s administering medications or providing appropriate therapies for their physical and mental well-being. I have experience with different breeds and temperaments, so I easily adapt to each pet’s unique needs. Looking for a quiet and exclusive stay for your pet? Your furry friend will find a true haven of peace here. My home is clean, calm, and completely free of loud noises. I only accept one family at a time, ensuring a stress free and distraction free environment. I’m home all the time, so your pet will never be alone. Perfect for sensitive pets or those who simply need rest and tranquility. I speak Spanish, I am currently studying English📒 I’m patient, responsible, organized, flexible, and, above all, trustworthy. I love walking and exploring the outdoors, which makes walks with your furry friends one of my favorite moments of the day. They also help me by providing exercise and breaking me out of my daily routine. I truly enjoy sharing my life with the company of pets. I offer a warm, cozy, and safe environment where your pet will feel loved and protected. I’ll keep you informed with updates through the Rover card, as well as photos and videos during their stay, so you’ll always know how your furry friend is doing. Your pets can roam freely throughout the house, and during the night, when it’s time to sleep, they are monitored through my camera. 🐱It will be a pleasure! I’m available seven days a week to host, care for, and walk your pets. I’m also open to handling last-minute requests, as long as I don’t have prior bookings. I provide exclusivity by only caring for one pet per day or pets from the same family. My husband helps keep the pets entertained during their stay. I love taking long walks, and I’ll always send you updates through Rover cards. Your pet will be safe and comfortable in a warm and welcoming environment. In my home, I’ve created a secure, risk-free space where your furry friend can feel right at home. I always stay in the same space as the pet, providing constant attention and supervision to ensure their well-being at all times. My neighborhood is gated and pet-friendly, with plenty of green areas, making walks perfect and super safe for both large and small pets. For my pet boarding service, whether for the day or overnight, I prioritize hygiene and a great experience. Before each reservation, my home is thoroughly disinfected, vacuumed, and mopped. I love welcoming pets into a clean and well-prepared space to ensure their stay is comfortable and enjoyable. 🐕🦺In my client's home, I follow their specific instructions regarding feeding, walking, and any other care routines they have in place. I’m a flexible, adaptable and energetic person

About: Firm yet loving care for all dogs, specializing in puppy training, high energy, hiking/running, and managing complex medical needs like seizures, food sensitivities, and limited mobility.

My approach to pet care is rooted in structure, trust, and genuine affection. My services will be tailored to each dog's needs indoors or outdoors.
“Genevieve was super friendly & easy to work with! Did a meet & greet before, which got my dog comfortable with her. She was on time & communicative before & during the walk! Will definitely rebook”

About: I grew up around dogs and even fostered a few throughout my college years. I have the strength to walk any dog and am very active if they need lots of walking. I understand their personalities and always lead with love🐶 I’m currently working part time and am always open to working around your schedule. Weekends during the day are always busier for me but I’m flexible and will put your pet first. Pets at my home have the apartment to run free, although I do not have outdoor space those who require it will get more than enough outdoor time. I spend most of my time outdoors and they are always welcome to join.
About: Experienced animal lover who has raised everything from chickens to horses! I have over ten years of experience as a dog walker and pet sitter for friends, family, neighbors, and clients. I am currently a devoted cat mom to two Cornish Rex cats. I am currently working part-time from home, so I have ample time to accommodate your pets schedule. I am also available to spend time in your home for pets who have more social needs while their owners are away. I have a fenced yard and close access to a large dog park for hosting dogs at my home. I also have a large second bedroom to host cats or dogs who prefer to be inside. All pets in my home will be kept completely separate from my two cats.

About: Besides working my morning job I love to take care pets. I used to pet care couple years and have helped my aunt with her 3 dogs that needed daily walks! I always took care of them as if they were my own! I also have experience with elderly dogs who needed more attention and needed to be given medication daily. I enjoy going outside long or short walks and it’s always great to have a walking partner! I have a one full time job, so this would be 8 hour shifts. I mostly work early in the morning. But besides that I would love to be your pets new playmate! I can adjust and make the free time around my working hours. So please don’t hesitate to reach out! I will always treat your pet as if they were my own! Meaning they will be given unconditional love lots of playtime and attention! With my own pet she is the queen of the house and I am there to take care of her the best I can! You won’t have to worry while they are with me!

Anna was so helpful and didn’t hesitate to support dog walking and feeding both our dog and cat when we decided to go on a last minute day trip. We recently moved to Menlo Park and are so grateful to have found Anna! Looking forward to having Anna’s support with our animals more in the future.

Judea has been amazing to work with! She’s been super accommodating, helpful, and easy to communicate with. She’s always been flexible with scheduling and has made everything really easy and stress free. I really appreciate how kind and reliable she’s been with Buddy, and I feel comfortable knowing he’s in good hands. I would definitely recommend Judea to anyone looking for a great dog walker!

Shobi is absolutely wonderful! So reliable, caring, and communicative. She’s been incredible helpful while my pup and I have adjusted to a new city and schedule. My dog loves her, and I always feel completely comfortable knowing she’s in good hands. Highly recommend!

I would highly recommend Cameron to anyone looking for a reliable, communicative, and thoughtful dog walker! He has been an absolute pleasure to work with. He always posts cute photos of Oreo and takes him on nice, long walks. I come home to a happy, relaxed dog every day, and I have Cameron to thank for that!

We have two dogs who can be a bit reactive when walked by leash. My wife and I were instructed by professional dog trainers on how to keep them calm and under control when they see another dog. John picked up the training methods quickly and had both of our guys exhibiting their best behavior. John is a natural, and our dogs adore him. We are extremely pleased with his calmness and attention. Five stars!

Yu Chen is such a great friend for our pet Shadow. We are so lucky that we found Yu Chen. While we were away, she took shadow out for a long walk everyday for more than we agreed. She left me notes everyday regarding her time with Shadow. It was such a relief to know that our dog is in good hands. She is truly a dog lover! Don’t hesitate to let her take care of your paws. I will always recommend Yu Chen. Hope to see Yu Chen again soon.
