“Richard was excellent watching my dogs overnight at my place for two nights. He was very loving and patient with my anxious pupper and by the end they were getting along great. Richard was also a very respectful house guest and left the place better than he found it. Highly recommend!”
“I've had Francesca house sit my two pitbulls twice and she's been great both times. She understands how to take care of my frail, elderly dog as well as my reactive 5 year old. And she responds quickly to my questions.”
“Our experience with Shanley was nothing short of amazing! She was our very first Rover/pet sitter experience. We are so thankful to have found her. She sat our 130lb Irish Wolfhound, Lando, at our house for two days. Shanley was very attentive to Lando’s schedule and took excellent care of him. She updated us on how he was doing, sent pictures, and always responded very quickly. We saw her a few days later so she could meet our other dogs, and Lando was over the moon to see her again! We definitely plan to use her for future trips”
“Valerie was great! She was so flexible, prompt and took great care of my girls and house. As a pediatric nurse I need to focus on providing the best care to my patients--Valerie allowed me to do that without worrrying about my two needy girls overnight. I am forever thankful to Valerie and can't wait to plan more trips now that I have found someone I trust.”
“Hollie is the best. She's thoughtful, attentive, and communicative. She truly went above and beyond when some big challenges arose during her stay -- and our dog was still so well cared for. Thank you Hollie!”
“Matt is always great with our dog, Elliott. He was very responsible with Elliott's medication schedule and attentive to his emotional needs. I'll be re-booking Matt for our next trip as well. Thank you, Matt!”
“Shivani was so loving with our dogs and very communicative! My partner and I realized we were looking forward to new pictures several times a day while we were gone. It gave us such extraordinary peace of mind to know that somebody who cares so much about our girls was there, not only to feed them and give them their meds, but to keep them company and play with them.”
“I highly recommend Nicky! She took great care of our sweet old Callo, was super flexible when our return flight was delayed, and tended to the plants, in addition to being responsive and easy to work with.”
“Angela was amazing! She offered to do a meet and greet before sitting, which was perfect for my dog who is a little wary of new people. I also got plenty of updates and pictures. And I was able to enjoy my time away worry free because she was in such good hands.”
About: I have taken care of dogs and cats my whole life. I have seen pets through life from young to elderly, providing medications and cleaning up countless messes. Nothing will surprise me. I attune to pet personalities well: I love snuggling with the snuggly ones, take care around skittish ones, and everything in between. I am punctual and respectful of your time and space. I’m currently working part-time from home and I am available on short notice to provide care for your loved ones. I am quick to respond and can travel within the East Bay comfortably. I provide loving care in the form of house and pet-sitting, dog walking, feeding, medications, play time, snuggling, and more. I am a highly attuned individual, so I will learn your pet’s needs and meet them where they are at. I work comfortably with pets with boundaries, aggression, skittishness, and other high needs. As a house and pet-sitter, I always leave the home exactly as I found it. I respect your property and make your pet’s safety the highest priority. I will follow your guidelines to the letter and I’m happy to send you pictures to help your mind be at ease.
“Barbara has taken excellent care of both of anxious/reactive big dog, and our home while we have been out of town. She is reliable and so helpful, I never have concerns leaving Rocky in her care. I recommend her to anyone looking for care for their pups!”
“Elise was wonderful, very communicative and considerate. She left my place in a great state and the pets seem to have had a great time while I was away. Would greatly recommend!”
“Ashley was great! Oscar is a challenge and is afraid of everyone and everything. She was patient with him and eventually won him over. We highly recommend her and will definitely have her back!”
“Sam was a wonderful pup and house sitter! We absolutely will be using him again. He sent fun updates, was super responsive, and spoiled our two pups - including a senior boy with medical needs. Plus, our house was absolutely spotless when we got back which was so lovely.”
“Meshaal took great care of our 55 lb pup and our cat in our home while we were on vacation! They were thorough in preparing for the job, very communicative while we were away, and followed all of our feeding and exercise instructions. We would definitely have Meshaal sit for us again!”
“We were so happy with Kendra! Took such great care of our two dogs. We have a Aussie puppy and he did so great with her. It was so nice to go away and not have to worry about our house or pets. Great communication as well. Couldnt be happier!”
“Ida and Travis were amazing to work with! They sent tons of cute photos of my cats, were the best communicators, and even left my home cleaner than they found it. They were very attentive to learning about my cats' needs and managing challenges like my sticky front door key. I'd definitely use them again!”
“Sophia did incredible with our dog, Bryn. She sent daily pictures and was very attentive with all the complicated instructions I gave. Bryn seemed very happy when we came home and he got more walks with Sophia than he usually gets with me. I highly recommend Sophia, we'll be rebooking soon!”
“Josie was great, spent 5 days taking care of our home and our two pups. Gave regular updates, and left the house immaculate. Thanks Josie! Hope to have you help us again in the future!”

Our dog, Enzo, decided to give Robert some attitude and behaved differently than usual during their time together. Thankfully, Robert handled things very well and was able to manage the situation. He was also very accommodating and flexible with our unique timing and apartment building setup. We are so thankful for his time and care!
Victoria apartment-sat with Snowy for three days and was absolutely on top of everything from walks to treats to cuddle time. Provided a lot of comfort and confidence that my 3yr old corgi would be well taken care of. Look forward to her and Snowy hanging out again.
Shareese was a huge help with our elderly dog while we were away. Our dog was having a hard time with age-related changes and Shareese provided such calm and compassionate care. She was patient in all our communication and helped us figure out how to keep our dog feeling comfortable. We are so grateful to have found her and for the peace of mind she gave us.
Laura was a great dog sitter to my dog and her best friend––two reactive pups! Laura was patient with their quirks and figured out their personalities quickly. Photo updates and texts during the day put at ease and also made us aware that Laura was taking the pups on great walks! In addition to watching the dogs, Laura housesat at my house and left the place in great condition. We will be returning to Laura for our care needs in the future, for sure! Highly recommend.
Sarah was awesome. She took care of my high maintenance blind, senior dog for three days while I was out of town. She handled his many medications and followed my detailed instructions for his care completely. She even moved my car into the garage for me when I needed it, and my home was spotless upon return. She is very professional and very thorough. And is especially skilled with sr/diabled dogs. I will for sure book her again for help with my lil guy.
Ida and Travis were amazing to work with! They sent tons of cute photos of my cats, were the best communicators, and even left my home cleaner than they found it. They were very attentive to learning about my cats' needs and managing challenges like my sticky front door key. I'd definitely use them again!
Kendra fits us in sort of last minute, but despite that she was very thorough in getting the details needed to care for my senior crew. Both my cat and my dog have several medications a day, and Kendra handled it all very smoothly. She paid extra attention to some troubles my old dog was having, and kept me updated throughout her stay. House was very clean and well maintained, and everyone seemed happy and content. My younger dog even wanted to go home with Kendra! Highly recommend her and will use her help again as soon as I can.
Robyn came and took care of my older cat with an illness for 1 week. My cat, Nyx, requires medicine twice a day and lots of cuddle time which Robyn provided equally. It was the second booking ive made with Robyn. Again everything was great, and my cat was happy and healthy upon my return. Highly reccomend! Robyn a great! Thank you!!!!
Valerie was great! Rafa took to her immediately and really enjoyed her company and care. She provided plenty of pictures and updates throughout the day, which we really appreciated. She asked lots of questions demonstrating her attention to Rafa’s particular needs. We highly recommend Valerie!
Dane took amazing care of our little Peanut and our house! He went above and beyond taking many pictures and giving us updates. He took Peanut on long walks and did training sessions with her — it was very clear she was having a blast. Dane also generously watered our plants and left our house cleaner than he found it! Would highly recommend Dane to anyone looking for a sitter and we look forward to booking with him again :)
David and Mabel took excellent care of our 2 year old lab. It was great knowing our puppy was comfortable at home with professional and thoughtful care. They understand dogs, how to care for them and the importance of communicating with the pet parents. Our home was left cleaner than when we left, which we greatly appreciated! We will definitely continue to use them when we are away!
