“We couldn’t be happier with the care and support Hyojae provided to both Juneau and our family at a trying time. Exceptionally accommodating, engaging, and flexible to help keep our puppy occupied while we attended to our son’s health! Definitely 5⭐️+”

“Boba had a wonderful time at daycare and made some great doggy friends. Manli is a very caring and attentive dog sitter who clearly loves what she does. We felt very comfortable leaving Boba in her care. We will definitely come back again the next time we need a sitter!”

About: I grew up with the sweetest Shih Tzu in the world named Dak (a small computer chip). And I think my style of pet care came from taking care of him. I was attentive and gave him lots of love. He loved driving in the car with me, actually :) I have been pet sitting for friends and on other platforms for over 5 years in their homes. And I took care of a neighbor's bird way back in high school. For the most part I have specialized in cats and small to medium dogs. I also have a calm spirit that many animals are drawn to. So we can chill together for a long time. In addition, I'm responsible and respectful, caring and considerate not only for pets but also for owner's homes. I am able to communicate well and clearly and can problem solve to resolve any situation which might arise. In short, I have the know-how to be able to feed, entertain, clean up after, and love cats and dogs and their living spaces. And I can communicate well to their parents to keep them safe and happy while mom and dads are away. I currently work part-time teaching English online. I also am writing my doctoral dissertation. This means I am home a lot and very happy to spend lots of time with pets, even at my desk with me or curled up on the sofa. I strictly watch pets in their own homes. Firstly, because I am missionary and I've been staying temporarily in my parents house in North Carolina and now here with my brother in Palo Alto. Secondly, because I think pets are much happier if they can stay in their own homes and in familiar surroundings.
“Momo had a wonderful time at Edward & Elisha’s. He got lots of play time in their backyard with the other doggies. They sent many photos and Momo came back home pooped! Overall, they were responsive, super sweet and cared for Momo well. Would definitely recommend ?”

“My dog Oscar absolutely loves Tillana! He gets so excited when she picks him up. He runs to her car knowing that he is going to have the best day. He gets to play fetch and run around with his dog friends. I notice he is always so worn out when he gets home. Tillana is the best dog sitter I have had!”

“Silvana took incredible care of my very anxious dog. He typically has separation anxiety and takes a while to get use to a new place, but she made him feel comfortable right away. She took him on walks, took him to the park to play with another dog he felt comfortable with, and made sure I was updated throughout the day with pictures and videos. When I went to pick him up he gave her kisses goodbye :) We absolutely will re-book with Silvana. Thank you, Silvana, for taking such great care of Jackson!”

“Stacey was great to work with! She was a great communicator, made pick up and drop off very easy and checked in with me throughout Bogey’s stay. My pupper seemed super comfortable and at easy with her and her dogs as well. Will definitely be working with her again :)”

“We're so glad we found someone like Crystal to take care of our 12-week old pup while we're out and about. She's super responsive, sends updates with pics, and we know that our puppy is well taken care of. She comes home exhausted, and is really excited to see Crystal every time we drop her off. You can entrust the care of your dog to Crystal with your eyes closed.”

“Sarai is an absolutely fantastic dogsitter! She was so kind, understanding, and patient with our pup, and she truly went above and beyond to make our pup feel at home. Thanks a million, Sarai!”

“Angela and Kangwoong are real dog lovers. Xico came back home very alert and excited. It is wonderful to have a family with kids share their precious time with Xico.”

About: Hi, I'm Kathryn! I’m an experienced, compassionate pet sitter offering personalized care, daily dog walks, and overnight stays. I work from home full-time as a journalist, which means your pup will have constant companionship, plenty of belly rubs, and lots of love. My passion for animals runs deep—I grew up at my mom’s dog daycare, where I was immersed in dog behavior training and care from an early age. We had labs growing up, and some of my favorite memories are of taking them on long adventures in the woods. These days, my partner and I share our home with our sweet shepherd mix, Ozzy. I’ve spent the last eight years caring for dogs while I lived all over the country. This is my first time on Rover, and I’m excited to build meaningful relationships with both pets and their people. I believe pet care should be accessible—not overpriced—so I strive to offer affordable, high-quality service that gives you peace of mind. We live in a beautiful, pet-friendly apartment with a secure back courtyard and quick access to local parks for playtime and walks. Your pet will be treated like family—safe, loved, and happy while you're away. For boarding and daycare requests, I will be joined by my own dog Ozzy. If your dog prefers not to be around a young dog, then it may not be a fit. Looking forward to connecting! As a journalist who works from home, I’m lucky to have a flexible schedule—and I love using it to give animals the attention, care, and fun they deserve. With tenderness, love, and dedicated attention, I focus on creating a safe, comfortable environment tailored to your pet’s unique needs. I can’t wait to meet your wonderful companion and make them feel right at home!
“Thank you Kimberly for taking care of Basil! Kimberly was quick to respond, asked questions and sent lots of updates. Basil enjoyed her walks with Kimberly and I appreciated peace of mind knowing that my dog was being tended to while I was at work.”

“Charlotte was great! She took great care of Charlie during the day, went on walks, and was very responsive. She has two young daughters who are gentle with dogs. Would definitely recommend Charlotte for anyone looking for a friendly and caring sitter!”

About: I cared for my own dog for 8 years, which gave me a strong foundation in daily routines, exercise, feeding, and understanding a dog’s behavior and needs at different stages of life. I’m especially attentive to each pet’s individual personality—whether they’re energetic and playful or more shy and reserved. I’m patient, calm, and detail-oriented, which helps pets feel comfortable and safe. I’m also very reliable and will follow your instructions closely, whether that includes specific feeding schedules, medications, or preferred walking routines. I’m comfortable with both dogs and cats, and I take the time to make sure each pet gets the attention, care, and affection they deserve while you’re away. My goal is always to make the experience as stress-free as possible—for both you and your pet. I recently graduated from UC San Diego and am currently back home while searching for my first full-time role, which gives me a very flexible and open schedule. I’m available throughout the day for walks, drop-ins, and extended visits, and I can easily accommodate different routines and timing needs. Whether your pet needs consistent daily care or more last-minute support, I’m happy to be flexible. Because of my availability, I’m able to give pets plenty of attention and not rush visits, ensuring they feel comfortable and well cared for. I always focus on creating a safe, calm, and comfortable environment for every pet. In a client’s home, I follow all care instructions closely and do my best to keep your pet’s routine consistent, since that helps them feel secure and at ease. I’m attentive during visits and make sure pets are safe at all times, including keeping doors and gates secure, watching for anything unusual in their behavior, and providing updates so you know how they’re doing. I’m also patient and respectful of each pet’s personality and boundaries. Whether your pet is playful, shy, or anxious, I want them to feel comfortable, cared for, and well looked after while you’re away.
About: I’m a dog-loving neighbor and Bernedoodle parent who enjoys caring for pups like family. I work from home and live in a cozy house with a fenced backyard, near plenty of green spaces and school fields for walks. My middle school kids and friendly Bernedoodle love having dog guests around—we’ll make sure your pup feels safe, loved, and right at home! I work from home, so I’m around all day to keep your pup company. Our routine usually includes morning and evening walks around the neighborhood or nearby parks, giving the dogs plenty of exercise and sniff time. During the day, they hang out with me in the house or relax in our fenced backyard—napping, playing, or just keeping me company while I work. It’s a calm, happy environment with lots of love and attention throughout the day. Your dog’s comfort and safety are always my top priority. Our home is a single-family house with a securely fenced backyard where dogs can play safely under supervision. Indoors, dogs are welcome to roam freely, nap on comfy spots, and be part of our daily life. I take time to understand each dog’s needs and routine—whether it’s feeding schedule, favorite toys, or quiet time preferences—so they can settle in smoothly. I also keep a close eye on playtime to make sure all dogs feel comfortable and relaxed. With my friendly Bernedoodle and caring middle-school kids, your pup will be surrounded by gentle company, calm energy, and plenty of affection. You can trust that they’ll be cared for just like one of our own.
“Jesse & Kimmy made Honor feel right at home. They sent lots of updates and we really couldn't have had a better experience. We will definitely be booking with them again.”

“Sein is a fantastic sitter! She takes great care of my pup Little Bear and you can tell she’s very gentle with him (he has separation anxiety). Always responsive and ensures Little Bear has many walks and is fed as requested. Highly, highly recommend booking with Sein!!”

Stanford dog parents share their Rover experiences
Teilyn and her wife are absolutely wonderful sweet people and I was so happy to find them on Rover. They have such a lovely backyard area for pups and were great with my 5 month old husky puppy, Yermo. And their two little Chinese Cresteds are awesome! Yermo came home absolutely wiped out (a godsend) and I got check-ins and photos of him helping with gardening and also out at his first protest (so proud). Really thankful for the new experiences and socialization for my puppy and to find great pup sitters.

Boba had a wonderful time at daycare and made some great doggy friends. Manli is a very caring and attentive dog sitter who clearly loves what she does. We felt very comfortable leaving Boba in her care. We will definitely come back again the next time we need a sitter!

Sjofn is always excited to get to see Guilherme! I’m always thrilled to know she is safe and happy. Guilherme is also great about communicating before and during her stay so I know exactly when to expect him and he’s great about picking her up to. To put my mind at ease he sends plenty of pictures of her having a good time. I admit as a service dog she can be a bit nervous about being left with other people but she is never nervous about staying with Guilherme and Edina. I highly recommend him for any care your pet needs

Ali was amazing and took excellent care of our dog, Pepper. He was very patient, attentive, and clearly experienced, which gave us great peace of mind. Ali kept us updated with regular messages and photos, and it was obvious that Pepper felt comfortable and happy in his care. We truly appreciated his reliability and kindness, and we would absolutely trust him again and highly recommend him
