“Grace is beyond amazing! She is extremely communicative, consistently giving us updates and pictures of Valentina. Very loving and kind towards our dog gave her really nice attention and daily walks. Great!”

“Our 1-year-old mini Aussie, Woby, had a wonderful time staying with Jifu while we were away for over a week. It was our first boarding experience, and we couldn't have asked for a better home for him. Jifu was incredibly attentive, providing us with constant updates with photos and videos. We were so relieved to see how happy, relaxed and healthy Woby was in their care. He loved running and playing tennis balls in the backyard, and chewing on toys indoors when it gets too hot outside. Jifu's super friendly dog, Joki, was also a great companion. We're so grateful for Jifu's reliability and kindness, and we'll definitely return for future boarding needs.”

“Mario was very well cared for. He needed lot of attention and pets which he got in abundance. We also received regular photos and updates every day. Thank you Justin and An.”

“Peanut had his trial day with Shannon today and everything went great. She took wonderful care of him, kept us updated with lots of photos, and made us feel very comfortable the whole time. We could see that he was happy and well cared for. We will definitely book with her again in the future”

About: Firm yet loving care for all dogs, specializing in puppy training, high energy, hiking/running, and managing complex medical needs like seizures, food sensitivities, and limited mobility. Currently working from home with flexible time which allows me to integrate training, walks, play time, and medical monitoring throughout the day, while weekends are dedicated to long runs/walks and trail hikes. My approach to pet care is rooted in structure, trust, and genuine affection. My services will be tailored to each dog's needs indoors or outdoors.
“This was Rosie’s second time spending the weekend with Karla, and she was excited and happy when we pulled up and went easily into the yard with Karla. Rosie was tired and happy when I picked her up. Karla gave her medication while we were gone and sent pictures and updates. We will continue to use Karla and recommend her!”


“Matthew and Katelyn were wonderful with Sadie and sent me a daily update with photos! I could see she was loved and cared for! thank you so much for taking care of my wonderful girl in such a kind and loving way!”

“Anniruda & Isha watched our senior dog Zephyr. At intake Anniruda was very thorough with questions about our doggo. They went out of their way to ensure Zephyr’s comfort during her stay. She was all tuckered out by the time we picked her up. Thank you for providing such diligent care to our dog!”

“This was my first experience with Guillermo and Siobhan and everything went smoothly. We had done a meet and great several months ago and my puppy seemed comfortable with Guillermo and their dog. We mutually reconfirmed the details and everything went smoothly. They sent an update and a photo- much appreciated.”

“Chris did a great job of watching my pup! My pup is a bit shy but Chris was patient and gave him the time to warm up. He also gave me regular updates with details about his eating and activities. I really appreciate the communication and would book again!”

“Our dog, Stan, does not easily warm up to people outside our family. We adopted him when he was 8 weeks old, and while he is well-socialized with other dogs, he remains very timid around new people. Before boarding Stan with Kimmy and Jesse, we had used the same sitter on two separate occasions, each for a week. During those stays, Stan always hid under her coffee table and never let her get close to him. However, with Kimmy and Jesse, the experience was completely different. On day four, Kimmy sent us pictures of herself petting Stan—a huge milestone for him. By day five, she was even able to take him on a walk around the neighborhood. Day by day, Stan grew more comfortable in their care. Seeing our timid dog so well cared for made us incredibly happy! We couldn’t have asked for a more caring couple or a more loving environment to board Stan. We are so grateful and look forward to boarding him with them on our upcoming spring break!”


“This was the first time we booked with Nina and Leo and we were very happy! Leo sent many photos of our pups each day of our trip, along with updates on how they were adjusting to their new surroundings and how they were eating. We were very pleased with the communication and felt our pets were in good hands and well-loved while we were out of town. I would definitely recommend and would book again. Thanks Nina and Leo!”

“Yi was a wonderful host for our 9 year old dog who has special needs when it comes to reactivity around other dogs. She was prompt with communication both setting up the booking and sending us photo updates. I would definitely trust Yi for a future booking!”

“Highly recommend Cesar! He took wonderful care of Kuma, provided cute photo updates, and was communicative throughout the entire process. I will definitely be contacting him first the next time I need a sitter.”


“Margarita took very good care of Buddy and kept us updated with photos and videos throughout his stay, which we really appreciated! It was nice to see how he was doing and know he was being well cared for. We would gladly trust her with Buddy again in the future.”

“Lia was a superstar! We really needed someone who would be flexible with the schedule as we were about to have a baby. Lia provided exactly what we needed. She worked with us to reschedule the sitting on short notice. She is experienced and careful. The dog came back happy and healthy.”

“Tillana was great from the very start. She remained in communication with us the entire stay, sent lots of pictures, worked to socialize them and truly gave our little ones the 5 star treatment. She is a dog person through and through and we will be glad to use Tillana again!”

“My cat Wallace and I are truly blessed to have found a new friend in the wise, caring and loving Julia! I had been away from the area for four years and was so nervous to find the right person I could trust with my precious companion! I’ve hit the lottery with Julia, could not recommend her more ! Thank you, Julia! We will be seeing you soon ! Love from Barbara and Wallace ?”


“Rachel was so sweet and took great care of my cat! She was very attentive to all care instructions and left detailed summaries every day, going above and beyond to have quality time and playtime together. She even left a sweet note and photo at the end of the stay. Thank you Rachel, I felt very secure knowing Fiadh was in good hands!”

“Regina did such a great job taking care of our shy and timid and very high maintenance cat over a holiday weekend. She was very communicative and we highly recommend her! :)”


“Thank you for being so incredible with our cat! Danielle is awesome; your pet will be in excellent hands. I so appreciate all the detailed notes Danielle left me about how our cat was doing. Amazing!”

“Chelsea did an amazing job taking care of Ralph! She communicated well, gave thorough updates, and was trustworthy. I will definitely ask her to take care of Ralph again in the future!”


About: Before my current employment I worked at a pet boarding facility that included cats for over 4 years. Additionally, I have 3 of my own cats that I raised since they were kittens. I have tons of experience handling cats with all different kinds of temperaments and personalities. I also have experience administering medications. Currently I work fully remote so my schedule is very flexible and I am even more open on the weekends and can accept last minute bookings. I know leaving your cats can be stressful for you and for them which is why I want to make the experience as stress free and calm as possible. I adore cats and I would love to nurture a bond with yours. (:

About: I cared for my own cat for the last 18 years, giving me extensive experience with cats of all ages, especially senior cats. I’m comfortable with feeding, litter box cleaning, playtime, administering oral medication if needed, and recognizing when a cat needs extra attention or prefers quiet space. I’ve also cared for my neighbors’ cats while they were away, making sure they stayed comfortable, safe, and loved in their own home.
“Octavia took care of our cat, Roni, while we traveled with our dogs. We came back to a happy cat! I’m grateful we have found Octavia. She does a great job and is very communicative about how everything is going when we are out of town.”

“Kim was incredibly thoughtful in caring for our two cats. She provided very thorough updates and feedback with plenty of photos so we could feel connected while we were away. Kim especially took extra care with our very shy kitten and provided feedback on her progress. Thanks so much, Kim!”


About: Cats have always been a huge part of my life. I’ve fostered an entire litter from just two days old and have also rescued a few cats along the way! I adopted my cat, Coto, in college because I missed having a furry companion around. I absolutely adore cats and love getting to know their personalities and quirks
“Daria was a wonderful cat sitter in our home! She was extremely attentive and flexible. She sent me plenty of pictures and updates throughout and played with our cats each day to keep them happy.”

“Stacey has been incredible with our little dog Coco. She has been extremely communicative and sent us lots of pictures during our time away. Coco loved her time hanging out with Stacey’s dogs and having lots of play time. Thank you so much Stacey, we’ll definitely be booking again!”

“We have used Renz several different times and he’s always been great! Pepper loves he and his partner and their sweeeeet dog, Whiskey. Renz is very easy to coordinate with, follows all my instructions, troubleshoots intelligently, is skilled in obedience training, and seems to really enjoy learning Pepper’s needs. He has access to a variety of dog parks and trails, including agility structures, so I know Pepper is always going to have fun and be stimulated. Highly recommend!”

“Andrea was the absolute best with our 13 week old puppy, Bruno! She was easy to communicate with, responsive and took great care of Bruno. My fiancé and I received updates and photos throughout the day which put us both at ease. It was our first time using a sitter through Rover and I could not recommend Andrea enough.”

“We were so nervous about leaving our dog at doggie day care with someone we hadn't met. However, Tillana really took the time to know our dog and took a deep interest in her unique needs and personality! She keep us updated with many pictures, and our dog had the best time! Tillana was very flexible with pick up and drop off too (although if you need an early morning time this seems to be harder). We will definitely be back!”

“We had such a wonderful experience with Polar’s caregivers! They were incredibly sweet, patient, and attentive with her. Polar is a very playful dog who loves—and definitely demands—a lot of attention, and they were so wonderful with her. They took her to the park, gave her lots of love and attention, and kept us updated throughout her entire stay, which gave us so much peace of mind. We highly recommend them and would absolutely love to have Polar stay with them again in the future! Thank you so much for taking such great care of our girl! ❤️”


About: I have grown up around dogs my whole life. I am well-versed in walking large and stubborn dogs such as Newfoundlands and Great Pyrenees. I have been a parent to Wells, a very high-energy Vizsla, for 5 years now. We did all our training ourselves and successfully trained a great loose-leash walker. I am eager to help other dogs learn this skill as well! I am working locums, so I am gone for 4 days twice a month and otherwise home and available the rest of the month. Open for walks and visits all day! If your dog is open to a play date, I have a very friendly, high-energy dog that would love to get his zoomies out with your pup. Open to going for long walks or nearby fenced-in dog parks.
“Chelsea is fabulous. Rei had a wonderful stay. I truly appreciated all of the updates and photos. Highly recommended and I will definitely be reaching back out for a future stay. It was great peace of mind, knowing Rei was in such good hands.”

“We couldn't have asked for a better sitter than Pouneh! She took our next-day boarding request from our meet and greet, which we appreciated so much. Pouneh was incredibly communicative to ensure everything went smoothly, and she was always waiting for us right on time for drop-offs and pick-ups. The best part? Ellie was thrilled to go back every single day. She had an amazing time and is already looking forward to her next stay! ❤️”


“I’m so thankful to Maggie for taking care of my pup when I needed a last-minute sitter! She was responsive and sent me updates throughout the day, and my fur baby took to her very well. Amazing experience!”

“We used Ana and Mark for a month, while our kitchen got remodeled. The were awesome: always trying to make the experience work for us and for our dog. They deeply care about dogs, are incredibly good natured and were clearly very kind, warm and caring with our dog.”

“Patrina was amazing to work with! She took the time to meet with me before hand to make sure King and Bogey would get along. During Bogey’s stay, she was very communicative and sent lots of photos of all the fun activities. Bogey looked like he had a great time and was so content when I picked him up. I will definitely be using Patrina again!”

“Rudi and Isha came to my rescue in my frantic search for a puppy sitter for a planned visit with longtime friends in the South Bay. I really appreciate their flexibility in the duration of the daycare as I offer ram my estimated time to pick up Lacey. Right from the start, Rudi socialized Lacey with Rex, his Labrador with a brief two-tether walk. Provided periodic updates, pictures included, letting me know all was going well and putting me at ease. While she was there, Lacey had plenty of playtime with Rex, and slept longer into the next morning than she had before. Also fed Lacey her dinner (since I ran late), and took Lacey on a nice walk. Overall a wonderful experience for Lacey, as well as for me, as this was our very first “Rover experience”. Definitely recommend, and I will rebook if/when the next trip to the area happens.”

“Lia shared nice updates and videos of our Julie investigating Lia's spacious backyard or relaxing inside. She was so friendly and accommodating when I needed to make some last minute changes to our original plan. Julie seemed to enjoy her time with Lia and I felt like Lia was happy to have our sweet, senior girl roaming around her place or napping and snoring!”
“Our puppy had such a great time with Ying! She was super attentive to all our puppy’s needs and sent lots of pictures. She was very responsive and answered all my questions. Her dog has also been a great playmate for our puppy, so they get lots of energy out too.”

About: We have a standard poodle Joki - who joined us in 2020 from a breeder. Joki is well trained and behave very well with other animals and people. I’m currently work from home so I am able to take care of pers all day during the day and provide multiple potty breaks as need. We have fenced front and back yard available for dogs to play and break. We can offer a fence if two dogs need to be kept separate.

About: Hello, my name is Austin! I grew up on a farm in Ohio and have taken care of many pets over the years including my favorites- cats and dogs! I’m new to the Menlo Park area and would love to provide any help I can for you and your pet’s needs! I’m currently working from 5am-2pm. I am available most weekday afternoons/ evenings anytime after getting done at 2pm! This leaves me a good block of time to help out most any afternoons. My lease does not allow me to care for any pets at my home, but I am more than happy to take care of your pets and abide by any rules or requirements you have for me :)

“Kayleigh is great! Responsive to communication, on time and hasn't canceled. My Happy loves her and is excited to see her. I receive pictures right away. I will continue to use Kayleigh.”

“Cordigen has been wonderful at providing weekly visits for our puppy, Sammy, and our 8 year old dog, June. I can tell from the photos she sends that they have a great time with her on their 3x/week visits and really appreciate all the care she shows for them. Highly recommend!”


About: I’m a student looking to help out with some local pet care and housesitting while i’m home for the summer. I’m vegan, I live alone, and I genuinely love animals and have a lot of flexibility with my schedule so I'm more than happy to keep your pets company, stick to their regular routines, daily walks, and make sure everything is taken care of. I'll always send plenty of photo updates too so you know they're doing great. I've taken care of dogs and cats for neighboring families and friends for many years, so I'm super comfortable handling pets with various different personalities and needs. I’m home for the summer and my schedule is incredibly open and flexible right now. Since I don't work a job, I have plenty of free time during the week and on weekends to hang out with your pets, stick to their routines, and make sure they're taken care of as if they are my own. Safety is the main thing for me. I always double-check locks and gates, follow whatever feeding or walking instructions you leave, and keep a close eye on them. I've watched dogs and cats for family and friends for the past two years, so I know what kind of things can go wrong and how to keep everyone happy and safe.

“Josh was great with my dog. Firm but not aggressive or hostile with my spirited Samoyed. Griffin loved going with Josh on his walks with Josh 's great dane and little terrier. It was a small, medium and large trio lol. Josh was punctual, reliable and gave the full hour. Would recommend 🙂”

“Morgan is wonderful and helped Jax adjust to a new neighborhood and manage a lot of change all at once! She is a great communicator, on time, and so sweet with my 8 year old golden doodle. She was patient as Jax is still adjusting to being more physically active as he had TPLO surgery 4 months ago… so grateful for Morgan’s care!”

About: I'm open to most types of pet sitting and have a hybrid work approach so more often than not am able to stay for the majority of the day with your furry child! I love walking in general, playing with dogs, cats, and appreciate that every pet has their own personality. Pet setting has always been a source of joy in my life and creating long standing relationships with families and their pets. It is such an amazing feeling to be treated with a wagging tail or a tail straight up depending on the pet :) and know that sending photos of their fur friend is bringing peace of mind to a family. I understand how much a pet means and am willing to go the extra mile to fit your families needs. I'm a graduate student getting a masters in clinical psychology in the evenings, which means I am available most days of the week and weekend during the day. I know I'm in good company here in saying that I treat my own cat like she's a part of my family. With any animal I'm taking care of I do my best to adhere to the schedule that the pet is used to in an effort to maintain a sense of normalcy when their family is away from them. I usually like to get to know what each pet likes and make sure we are trying to do some of their favorite activities to make their time positive. I make a concerted effort to keep the home neat and tidy each day so that the pet is also feeling clean and comfortable, but also so that the owners know that I respect not only their pet but their home. Depending on the preference of the owner I find it fun to send a small daily update which includes a photo and how the pet is doing overall.

About: I’ve grown up with Labrador Retrievers my whole life and got my very first puppy when I was 15. More recently, I brought home a French Bulldog, and it’s been such a joy watching him grow from a tiny puppy into the sweet, fun 1-year-old he is now! Having pets has always been a big part of my life, and I truly love caring for them I work from home so I am usually pretty available! I do have a lot of virtual calls so I cannot usually do last minute walks but can plan around my day! I am completely free after 3:30 PM everyday. I have a French bulldog who loves to play and spends a lot of his time cuddled up with us. We also have a huge patio that is fenced in and a dog area to let them roam around and play.
“Danielle has taken care of my dog a few times now and has provided consistently considerate and caring service. In addition to pictures and walk updates she is adaptable and helpful, like the time I forgot to leave her a leash and had to call to guide her to where I had a hidden spare outside the house. I always have peace of mind when she is taking care of my dog.”
