“Andy was great with our special needs kitty while we were away! He gave Buster lots of attention, managed his multiple feedings a day of wet and dry prescription food, and administered his daily oral medication without fuss. We were reassured by the many sweet photos Andy sent of Buster and himself along with updates. We couldn't be more pleased with Buster's care, Andy's attention to detail, and the neatness of our house on our return. We will definitely use Andy's help again in the future!”


“Maral dropped in on our puppy for an hour while we had to be out of the house for the day. Beforehand, she asked if we wanted help with training, which was fine by us, and she proceeded to send us multiple videos of the she was using while giving him a walk. He was having a great time while learning - Maral is absolutely recommended.”


“Prompt and thorough! Thanks again for your help!”


About: I grew up around animals. My senior bichon-poodle passed away in June 2024. Although I am not ready to commit to another pet I am committed to hanging out with your fur baby auntie style! I love staying active and I walk/run every morning and it would be more motivating with a furry friend who loves walks too. *I work as a medical assistant and have past experience with senior dogs so I am comfortable giving medications* I work full time but have time to walk/check on your fur baby Wednesday's, Thursday's, and Friday's in the mornings. I am off Saturday through Monday ! I care for pets as if they’re my own. I’ll treat them with care and compassion. The park I live by is a great place for a good morning walk.

“Tiffany is amazing! She took wonderful care of my kitty and shared detailed notes about her check ins and really fun photos, too. She went above and beyond in her attentive care and treated my kitty as if he were hers!”


“Thanks so much for taking Bill out on a couple of fun walks today!!”


About: I have a 9 year old goldendoodle at home with my parents. Before getting him when I was 13 years old, I had been begging my parents for 5 years. I would walk other peoples dogs, write essays, research on how to train and take care of dogs. Eventually my parents gave in but they made me do all the work (which I was so happy to do). I walked him, taught him how to swim, went on many hiking adventures, and even ended up training him to be a therapy dog. Now he is older, I love to snuggle him, take him on slow morning walks, and just sit by his side outside. I just moved to San Francisco and am missing my dog dearly so I would love to help you take care of your dog or pet. I currently am working full time so I am available any day after 5:30pm. I am also available all day on the weekends. I cannot house pets in my current apartment but I am willing to travel. I will take care of your pets by your directions. In my home we feed my dog twice a day, he's not allowed to go into certain parts of the home, has to sit and ask to go outside. For walks, I trained my dog to walk on leash with no pulling or off leash. I am comfortable with whatever and will follow your direction and rules for your dog. Consistency is key for pet behavior

About: Hi there! My name is Bella, and I’d love to help care for your furry friends. I have six years of experience with pet and house sitting. I used to volunteer at the humane society, so I am very familiar and comfortable with animals and their needs. I've worked with dogs of all ages, sizes, and abilities (deaf, blind, etc.). I’m local to Sausalito, and am happy to help you out if you’re located in Marin. Feel free to shoot me a message if you have any questions! I work a hybrid job, so I am in office a few days a week, but my schedule is flexible. I’m most free in the mornings, evenings, and on weekends, but can work in some afternoons as well! My husband, Michael, is also on my account as he serves as my backup, in case I ever need it. Communication is key! Please let me know if there are any special circumstances related safety for your pet. Personally, I keep cameras around my home for ease of mind, so I understand if you do the same.

“Kristen is exactly who you want to care for your cat. Above and beyond, friendly, and dependable. We are new to the area, and my cat is still establishing his territory, cat door busted and some coordination with the gardners and cat door situation had me stressed but she solved the issue and Frankie came back and I am extremely grateful that she was there. Pretty amazing for the first visit! 😸”


“So thankful to have found Britta on such short notice! It was my first time using the app and my first time leaving our cat by herself and the entire experience was all I could’ve hoped for and more! Britta gave me so much peace of mind, photos and videos. She was very attuned to all of Nelly’s needs and I could tell that Nelly loved her so much! Highly recommend!”


About: While I’m new to professional pet sitting, I bring a lifelong love for animals and hands on experience caring for both cats and dogs. I’ve grown up with pets and have been a dedicated cat and dog owner for years. I currently own an eight year old Chihuahua and three cats of varying ages. I understand how much love, patience, and attention our pet family requires. I’ve cat-sat for friends and am comfortable with feeding routines, litter boxes, walks, playtime, and giving lots of love! I would love to take on jobs for dogs as well! I recently started volunteering at Marin Humane Society, where I learned about animal behavior, care, and enrichment from professionals. My long-term goal is to study Animal Science and pursue a career in animal care. I’m reliable, compassionate, and always happy to tailor my care to your pet’s unique needs and quirks. Pet care is already a big part of my daily life! I take care of one dog and three cats every day, making sure they’re well fed, loved, and active. I feed them in the morning and evening, play with them using their favorite toys, and walk the dog daily. Caring for animals isn’t just a task for me, it’s something I genuinely enjoy and prioritize throughout my day. It brings me a lot of joy and keeps me in tune with what pets need to feel safe, happy, and well cared for. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine consistent so they feel safe and comfortable in their own space. I make sure to follow all instructions closely whether it’s feeding schedules, walk times, play preferences, or any special needs. I always treat the client’s home with respect and keep things clean and organized. I give pets lots of love, attention, and enrichment while also being mindful of their comfort levels especially if they’re shy or adjusting to someone new. My goal is to make their time without you as stress free and happy as possible.


“Heather speaks “cat”. We have a very shy rescue who is the world to us. Heather literally “meows” to her. She kept us up to date on how kitty was doing during our trip.”


“Alicia was a great sitter for our kittens. She was responsive and followed the care instructions well. We loved the photos she sent of their time playing. We look foreword to booking with her again!”


“BEST SITTER! I had an emergency and Sian was able to walk my boy at short notice. She was prompt and sent me pics that Beni was taken care of. Will definitely be using Sian again!”


About: I’ve been responsible for taking care of my family’s dogs, foster dogs, neighbors cats, and other friends pets of all sorts since I was 15, and have always loved giving them not only food and water but also the love and activity they need to thrive! I’ve taken dogs for long or short walks, stopped in to feed cats, or stayed overnight for multiple days for full pet care experience. I’ve missed caring for pets since moving away for school and am excited to spend time with animals again, especially by taking them on walks around the neighborhoods or caring for them in their homes! I’m working full time, but some days I work from home and am very active on weekends and evenings - which is especially why I’m looking to walk dogs, including them in this active lifestyle outside of weekday 9-5 work. As I am mostly looking to walk dogs or house sit. I am very focused on safety and trust in terms of keeping dogs in pedestrian friendly areas and away from busy streets, and am prepared to bring all of the bags and treats needed to keep dogs happy and the environment cleaned up after them. I also am happy to work with the dog’s needs at home in terms feeding schedule, exercise, medication, or affection to cater to their typical lifestyle so they feel the most comfortable.


“Crystal was amazing! I have an older Calico who wasn’t happy with me leaving. My cat left a few messes, and Crystal went above and beyond to clean them up when she didn’t need to. I appreciated her daily check-ins, kindness, and thoroughness. Thank you, Crystal. I look forward to rebooking your services. :)”

About: Hi there, I'm Ally! 🐕💕 Need an extra set of paws to help keep your furry friend happy, active, and loved while you’re busy? I’d love to be your go-to dog walker! I've been surrounded by animals my entire life. With years of experience caring for pets of all sizes and personalities, I know how important it is that your dog gets the exercise, attention, and care they deserve. Whether they love sniffing every tree, zooming around the park, or just soaking up some sunshine, I’ll match their pace and personality with a whole lot of love. 🌿 What you can expect: 🐾 Long or short walks tailored to your dog’s energy level - available for hikes too! 🐾 Extra patience for shy or senior pups 🐾 Playful adventures & plenty of petting (if they’re into that!) 🐾 Safe, responsible care— & great communication Let’s make your pup’s day a little brighter! I currently have a flexible schedule that can accommodate walks pretty much anytime during the day, on weekdays and weekends - however frequently you wish! I'm not currently offering overnight stays for pets in my home, but I have some flexibility and openness to come to yours. I am very communicative & respectful of space, and leave homes the way I find them - maybe even better!

About: I've had the pleasure to have taken care of many different animals the past 10 years: dogs, cats, rabbits, rodents, even fish. I currently live with a dachshund terrier and a short-haired calico cat. I have the passion and experience needed to ensure your animals comfortability and safety. I return to university in a month, so until then I will be available to help every day except Sunday, all day long. Let me know whatever time is convenient for you and I'll do my best to accommodate. At home, both my cat and dog love to be outside. Playtime, and Naptime, are when they feel most comfortable. When caring for someone else's pet I try my best to keep them comfortable, which also helps build trust.

She follows all directions to a T, makes sure my cat is safe, healthy, and loved, and always keeps me updated with plenty of photos and messages while I’m away. It’s clear how much care and attention she puts into her work and my cat absolutely adores her.

Tamalpais Valley cat parents share their Rover experiences
Katelyn took care of my cat, Nutella, better than I ever could! She didn’t just stop by to check on her, she made sure every little detail was perfect and showed such a deep, caring level of attention. Katelyn gave Nutella plenty of pets, played with her, brushed her, and even brought a laser toy to keep her entertained. She is truly amazing, and I can confidently say I’ve found my forever cat sitter. Nutella absolutely loves her, and I couldn’t recommend Katelyn enough.

Kirsta always goes above and beyond with our cats, sending lots of photos and providing detailed updates. She follows instructions very closely and our cats love playing with her!! Thank you Kirsta!

Eliza stepped on short notice to care of my cat Nugget! She did a great job! So thankful! Highly recommnend.

Hannah did an awesome job with Nugget and even went out of her way to put away some prepped meal deliveries I had forgotten to cancel. Highly recommend!

Heather, Takes care of the cats, the house and with an easy communication that makes a relaxing trip away.

Once again, Cheryl kept me at ease while I was away by giving my cat plenty of attention and care and playtime, as well as keeping her fed and hydrated while I was away Cheryl sends frequent updates and plenty of photos, which helps me stay reassured that my cat Maize is in good hands 🐱😊

Maureen took good care of my adult cat while I was away. My cat (Sadie) is not the most friendly with most people and hides when strangers are in my home. I was happy to see her out and about in the photos. Animals sense good vibes with Maureen. Thank you, Maureen, for being so thorough with my cat. I would not hesitate to rebook with Maureen.
