Top rated Stanford Gardens house sitters

“Erika is a dog whisperer! She navigated my youthful pup and senior dog with such care and attention. I felt so confident being able to hike and explore while my two dogs were well cared for. Erika provided great communication on arrival and departure, and I loved the pup picture updates. Very responsible and trustworthy too. Overall I highly recommend Erika for overnight dog visits. A+ experience.”
“Erin was just wonderful! She has a very calming presence that our doggies appreciated. They hardly missed us while we were gone! She took excellent care of our home as well. We really loved the daily updates and photos that she sent. 11/10; highly recommended!”


“Kate was amazing!! She checked in often and sent photos of my dogs daily! Dolly is usually timid of people but she was really comfortable with Kate! She stayed at my home and was with them majority of the time! They had constant care and attention. When I returned she started laundry for the bedding and towels, and left everything spotless! It doesn’t even look like she was here which is such a blessing to come back to a clean home! I would recommend to anyone looking for a sitter!”

“Sharon was amazing and I will 100% look to book with her again. I had planned to have her watch my dog from a Friday through Tuesday while on a vacation, but a family emergency ended my trip while I was traveling. Sharon was great to work with during this time, insisting that we modify the reservation to account for the shorter booking, all while sending pictures and videos of my dog—which my family and I really needed to see during an emotionally draining time. Otherwise, she just completely handled taking care of Teddy while I was gone, and I didn’t have to worry about a thing.”

“Lulu was terrific. My dog and I aren't apart much, so it's stressful for him (therefore, stressful for me) when I have to take a trip without him. Lulu provided regular, thorough updates with lots of photos and I can easily say this was the least anxious I've ever felt when leaving George with a sitter. George also had some unexpected medical issues arise before my trip that required some additional meds and limited activity. Lulu seems to have managed all of that really well. I'm very happy Lulu was able to pet sit for us! I also have a cat, but she hid the whole time (she hides from every human who isn't me 100% of the time), but I came home to a clean litter box, which is great!”

“Emily was absolutely amazing! So professional, easy to work with, and genuinely kind. She kept me updated with the sweetest pictures and gave me total peace of mind while I was away. Wrigley was clearly so happy and well cared for, which means the world to me. Communication was great the whole time, and I could tell she really went above and beyond. I’ll definitely be booking with her again!”


“Ell was great! She kept me updated with photos, & I could tell my dogs were very well taken care of. She also took good care of my home & left it clean & organized! She also did me the favor of watering my outdoor plants. I will definitely be hiring Ell again!”

“Stephanie was fantastic watching our French Bulldog! We got a number of updates and she went above and beyond. We very much appreciated her and will be using her again!”

“We had never used Rover before as we were hesitant to leave our babies with strangers. I chose Abby from reading her great reviews. She did an amazing job with our 2 dogs and cat. We knew they’d been well taken care of by the way they acted when we got home. She communicated well and sent daily pictures. She stayed at our home and even washed and made the bed! She left our home great. I would highly recommend her!”

“Julia took excellent care of our girl. We made a last minute request for Julia to extend her stay and she was kind enough to accommodate. I would definitely recommend Julia for your pet sitting needs.”


“Thanks to Lori, we were able to enjoy a much-needed 10-day vacation knowing that our precious dog and our house were in her capable and caring hands. She came over twice before the trip to meet our dog and review all instructions. She sent photos of our pup multiple times each day! We highly recommend Lori!”

“Amazing caretaker. She went above and beyond to ensure my pets were taken care of. My dog had a cough and she took him to the vet and kept me updated every step of the way. Would recommend her to any pet owner!”

“I couldn’t have been happier with the care Milly and Cooper received. They are 2 senior dogs and Jess took really good care of them and she was reliable and trustworthy. I came home to two very happy dogs and a clean and tidy house. I received regular updates and I highly recommend Jess.”

“Lily did an amazing job with my dog, Maverick. He was super anxious about the bad weather, and Lily was incredibly patient and understanding of his anxiety. She was very communicative, my place was well taken care of, and I came home to a happy dog. I would highly recommend booking Lily!”

“Maryn did an amazing job taking care of my 2 dogs. When we returned the dogs were happy and the house was clean and neat. She is very responsive when you contact her. Great job!”

“Rachel did an amazing job with our dogs. We were able to enjoy our vacation, knowing she was taking such good care of them. We got daily updates, with pictures. She gladly brought in mail and watered plants for us. She is very accommodating and fit us in to her schedule. She was able to pop in for 3 afternoons visits before her time here started when our son wasn’t able to get here during the day to let them out. We will definitely be calling her for future jobs! She’s a gem!!”

“We have had many Rover sitters care for our dogs while away from home. Most of them have been good or great to work with. Deidre is in top tier of sitters. She is communicative, compassionate and was very considerate throughout her time caring for our senior dog. We plan to continue to work with her and give her our highest endorsement.”

“Jenny stayed in our home taking care of our 2 dogs - one dog is recuperating from a leg injury and she did a great job ensuring our girl got her exercise and rest. Jenny is dependable and communicates regularly. Highly recommend!”

Stanford Gardens pet parents share their Rover experiences
I really appreciated Evelyn's flexibility with this booking. The nature of this trip meant that my exact return time was a moving target, and Evie was communicative, adaptive, and helpful in making sure there was no interruption in Pippa's care, which was a huge aid to me in a time of stress.

This is the second time we've booked Hillary to stay at our house and care for our pets while we were on a weeklong vacation. It won't be the last. We feel completely comfortable with her in our home and our pets love her! Hillary also takes good care of the house while we are gone. I 100% recommend her services.

Five stars for Susannah! She was awesome with Gurdy and Smidgie. The communication was great throughout our trip. She sent plenty of photos, including some great videos of her playing with the pups. Everyone looked completely relaxed and happy. She brought her dog Oliver along, and by the time we got home all three had clearly become fast friends. We couldn’t have asked for better care. Highly recommend and will definitely book again!

Always a 5 star experience with Amina! It is such a treat for Chambo and peace of mind for us to have Amina taking care of things. We were able to have a little adventure out of town, and out of cell service, knowing Amina had it covered. And we returned home knowing Chambo was taken care of and all we had to do was cuddle our bubbs. Thank you again, Amina!

Maryn was so great, our dog had so much fun with her and got so much love, attention, exercise, and play time! She sent so many pictures which put us at ease and allowed us to enjoy our trip knowing our dog was taken care of. Would definitely use Maryn again and definitely recommend her!
