“Laura was absolutely amazing!!!! We have an older grumpy small dog who needs constant care and a younger large doodle who has a ton of energy. She was great with both of them! The old dog doesn’t like most people but he liked her. She took great care of them and we got many updates every day. It was such a relief to know that they were in good hands while we were gone. She took them on many walks, played and had lots of snuggles. I highly recommend Laura. Her care really is top notch”
“Desiree took wonderful care of our dog, cat, Guinea pig, fish and plants for 10 days. Our Guinea pig was sick and required antibiotics as well as feeding through a syringe. Desiree kept the animals happy and comfortable, and even encouraged a bloom from one of my succulents! She sent updates and kept us in the loop with pictures and videos. When we got home, our pets seemed unfazed by our absence! We feel like Desiree truly loves our animals, and we will be booking her again for our next vacation! Thank you Desiree!”
About: I have been privileged to share over three decades of my life in the companionship of dogs and cats. Whether your pet needs walks or playtime while you’re away for the day, or a safe space for overnight care, I would be happy to love and pamper them as if they were my own. I have experience with pets of all ages and am comfortable administering oral and injectable medications, if needed. I also volunteer with NorCal GSP Rescue and have experience with post-surgery care. . I work from home M-F and have flexibility in my schedule. I am open to early morning or late night walks or drop-in visits in the event that you have an atypical work week. I have two pets in my home, a 12 yr old German Shorthaired Pointer (Sophie) and a 7 yr old Sphynx cat (Zelda). Both are friendly with other animals.
“Holly exceeded my expectation I had for a pet sitter. She arrived on time, immediately connected with Lily, and took the time to learn all about Lily's routine and preferences. Her questions showed how much she cared about providing the best possible experience for my dog. During her visit, Holly kept me updated with messages and photos, which gave me peace of mind. It was obvious that Lily was comfortable, happy, and received excellent care. Holly is professional, dependable, communicative, and genuinely loves animals. She has two dogs of her own. I feel fortunate to have found Holly and will absolutely book her again. I recommend her without reservation to anyone seeking exceptional care for their pet.”
“Kristen is fabulous! We needed someone to watch our lab puppy during the day while some repair was being done to our house. Kristen was very responsive in my initial request and quickly became friends with my puppy. Would definitely recommend her.”
“Kristi was awesome with our 3m old puppy Kobe and provided constant updates about what he was up to and made sure he ate and played as needed (additionally challenging since he hasn’t completed his vaccinations so he had to be tired out indoors). Would definitely ask Kristi to watch our dog again”
“Allie was amazing! She was incredibly trustworthy, communicative, attentive, and kind. Since she’s also a dog trainer, she knew exactly how to handle a young puppy and made us feel completely at ease leaving Churro with her. She even taught Churro some new things while we were away! We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and would absolutely recommend her.”
“Mary Jane did a wonderful job taking care of our two Havanese pups. She was very good at communicating with us and keeping us updated during our trip. I really felt like she cared about our pups and was a great guest in our home. She even washed the sheets and towels and had the bed made before we got home. That was so nice of her! Anyway we will definitely hire Mary Jane again.”
“Jenarae is really sweet and took great care of my dog Hendrix. He enjoyed had a fun time on their walks and was eager to snuggle up with her. I was at ease during my travels knowing my boy and my home were in good care.”
“So great! We were able to relax while we were away knowing the dogs were being taken care of! We also really appreciated Sarah’s updates and patience with our younger pup who can be a handful.”
“Jovelle did a great job caring for our dog and home! She was communicative, prompt and sent us daily pictures of our pup. 💕 This was our first time using Rover and we’d recommend Jovelle again! She made us feel super comfortable.”

About: Hi! I’m a big animal lover and have been around dogs for about 7 years. I have two dogs of my own, so I’m really comfortable with both small and big pups. I’ve also helped friends take care of their cats before. I’m patient, gentle, and pretty attentive. I can help with walks, feeding, playtime, and just making sure your pet feels safe and happy. I’ve also used another walking app, so I’m used to meeting different dogs with different personalities. I treat every pet like my own and always try to pay attention to what they need 😊 My schedule is flexible, and I’m available on weekends as well. I can spend plenty of time with your pet and provide consistent care throughout the day. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I follow all care instructions carefully and always stay attentive during walks and at home. I’m happy to send regular photo and video updates so you can feel at ease while you’re away. I’ll make sure your pet feels comfortable, cared for, and well looked after at all times.
“Veronica was quick to respond. Understanding about changes and the needs of our dog. Was very communicative and went above and beyond. We are so happy we choose her to care for our fur baby.”
“I am so glad that I found Aubrey! She patiently built a relationship with my sweet but fearful dog, Ruby. She took the time to learn our routines and has helped manage Ruby's reactivity with such kindness and positivity. I look forward to Aubrey's clever pupdates and cute pics when they return from walks and playtime. I love not having to worry when I am working or out of town because I know Ruby is so well taken care of.”

We came home from a long weekend away to a very happy Millie and a clean and well cared for Home. Jana and Ryan were wonderful pet and house sitters. Kept us in communication, kept Millie engaged with fun activities, followed our care instructions and were very respectful of our space. Totally trustworthy and would definitely use them again.

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Tassajara walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Tassajara maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
<b>Tip:</b> Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Tassajara choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
