“Matthew was very responsible and communicative. He provided many photo updates of our pup enjoying her stay, and flawlessly followed care instructions around medication, walking and feeding.”
“Amelia is wonderful! We were so happy to be able to be away and know that she's taking good care of our pup. The fact that our anxious little dog loves her says it all.”

About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats for years through friends, family, and my community. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, and making sure pets feel safe and relaxed while you’re away. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, and I take the time to follow your instructions closely so they feel comfortable and cared for. I’m patient, attentive, and truly enjoy being around animals. I’ll treat your pet like family and make sure they get plenty of love, attention, and care. I have a flexible schedule and am available during weekdays and weekends. I’m especially available during the day for walks and drop-in visits, as well as evenings for check-ins. I’m reliable and consistent, and I do my best to work around your pet’s routine to make things as smooth and stress-free as possible. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always follow your instructions carefully, keep a close eye on your pet, and make sure they are in a safe and clean environment. I’m respectful of your home and will treat it with care. I also provide updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing while you’re away. My goal is to make sure both you and your pet feel comfortable, secure, and happy.
“Milo had a great time with Megha and her family! Especially with their dog Barfi! They sent lots of updates and lots of photos of Milo, which helped me feel reassured that Milo was in good hands and that he was having a good time. Milo played so much with Barfi, and it really seems like he has gained a new best friend. Will definitely be booking with them again!”
“Just picked my puppy up from Yoona and Minjae and it was truly the most amazing experience from first contact to pickup. I was SO nervous to leave my beloved pup that I missed many trips because I couldn’t find anyone that felt like the right fit to leave him with. They were so warm, accommodating and welcoming and my dog instantly felt comfortable. They sent the perfect amount of updates/photos and were so communicative and responsive. They truly treated my puppy as one of the family and it instantly made me feel so much relief. They have the most adorable and sweet dog that my dog enjoyed being with. They worked with my ultra picky dog and made sure he ate by getting creative with his meals. I cannot recommend them enough and 5 stars isn’t enough. I am so grateful for them and the most incredible experience. Thank you so much, Yoona and Minjae!❤️🐶”
“Lanie and Family were great with Hunter! With updates throughout the stay, and knowing that Hunter was well taken care of! Hunter definitely showed he enjoyed his stay, quite relaxed and happy!”
“Rachel took care of my dog for 3 weeks while I was traveling. Rachel was highly responsive during this window and my generally anxious dog has come back home happy after his stay. I highly recommend Rachel for your dog-sitting needs.”
“Hands down one of the best Rovers I’ve used. Very communicative and friendly, great stimulation for my dog while I was away on an extended trip. Would highly recommend to anyone that wants their pet to have the utmost care and love while away from home. A+ and an easy 5 star rating.”
“Oobleck had a wonderful stay with Michael getting daily walks, lots of belly rubs and scratches. Michael took great care of Oobie and I’ll definitely book him again for a future stay. Thank you Michael 😊 Oobie can’t wait to learn more cooking tips, watch the Roomba, and go on sniff walks with you again.”
“Diana takes such good care of Cali. I don’t feel guilty leaving her. I know she’s getting loves and attention, and the socialization with other dogs is great for her! Thank you!”
“Julie was an amazing sitter!! She took such good care of my 6 month old puppy and sent me updates and pictures every few hours. I knew he was in such loving care and having a blast with her dogs and I was able to vacation worry-free. She even let me pick him up a day early with no fuss when I came back from my trip earlier than expected. I will definitely be using her again!”
“TR had my cat for one week. I have had her for 10 years and I have NEVER boarded her before so I was a bit nervous. TR did an amazing job getting her to feel comfortable away from home and she was great about sending updates, pics and videos to me! I am so thankful and appreciate how skilled and mature and reliable TR is!!!”
“ABSOLUTELY AMAZED! Thank you Jake and his partner for taking care of my Kobe! I have never left my dog, let alone with a dog sitter, so I was going into this very apprehensively and with a bit of anxiety when I decided to use Rover as my last option. I immediately booked Jake because of the long lasting experience with dog sitting and the great reviews! Kobe is not typically approachable by other dogs so it was very important that his care was taken with so much caution. I was able to meet Jake and the area he lives in with Kobe to get a better idea of what would be in store! Jake was very amenable and understanding of Kobe's perks and personality. During my trip away, I felt very at ease with the daily updates and photos from Jake and I was able to actually enjoy my vacation without feeling nervous that Kobe was in the care of someone else. I will definitely trust them to take care of Kobe again and any other future pets! I recommend Jake for any pet parent looking for a trusted sitter!”
“Sophia is the best! Our high energy dog Mimi spent 6 nights with her family and the experience was incredible. Our dog is considered as challenging by many commercial boarding providers. We interviewed many rovers to find the best fit for us and decided on Sophia. She is a real dog lover and her family is also very active. Mimi had so many good time with her, having long walks, enjoying the park, and jogging. After the boarding, Mimi is more joyful than usual. Obviously Sophia had very good impact on his personality!”

“Sora was amazing with drop in visits for our two kitties while we were away! She was very communicative, always on time, shared updates and is incredibly kind. We would absolutely reccomend her and book her services again!”
“Sara did a wonderful job taking care of my cats! I was impressed with her professionalism and her immediate affinity for the cats during our pre-visit, and could tell that both cats really enjoyed their playtime with her. I felt like my cats were in great hands, and would definitely contact her again if the need arises.”
“We’ve been using Anke several times to take care of our cat while away and she cares for him exceptionally well. She is very thorough and makes sure to feed him as well as play to give him exercise and attention. Highly recommended!”
“Li took fantastic care of my two cats! She sent daily updates with photos and information about the visit and was very proactive about checking that everything was as it should be. She worked well with the cats and got them to trust her and respond with affection despite being a new person to them. It is reassuring to have someone like Li taking care of them when I can't be there!”

“Sabrina has been the best find on Rover! She is kind, dependable, and very responsive. You can immediately sense her love for dogs. She treats my pup like one of her own and he is always very excited to see her. I highly recommend Sabrina’s services!”
“Due to a sudden change in plans, our previous sitter had to cancel just two weeks prior to our 17-day trip out of the country. We contacted Rover and found Meara. And despite her incredibly busy schedule and personal life, Meara cheerfully agreed to stay in our home with our deaf senior cat. She went above and beyond to make sure our trip was worry free and stayed in contact with us nearly every day. Everything was just perfect upon our return. The house was immaculate and Lily perfectly happy. We couldn't have asked for a better sitter. Thank you, Meara! You rock!”
“Sejla is amazing! She took excellent care of my kitty and sent comprehensive updates each visit. My cat is a big people kitty, so I always worry about her when I leave. It was a relief to know she was in such good hands with Sejla.”
“Lucy provided wonderful care for our 3 cats. She's very friendly and great to work with. She provided prompt and detailed summary of her visit along with photos. We feel very comfortable that our cats are in good hands with Lucy.”
“Diana was AMAZING. She saw our sick cat on very last minute notice, worked so hard to get her meds in (even though my cat can be resistant), made sure my kitty was super comfortable, sent us ABUNDANT photos, put out a whole array of different foods from different places in our apartment as we were trying to get her to eat, etc. the list goes on. We were so incredibly worried about our kitty and Diana put us at ease with her care. We would hire her again in a heartbeat. She was also just so kind, patient, generous, and communicative the whole way!”
“Danyel was an amazing sitter for our 5 month old kitten bmo! She stopped by multiple times to get to know him + his schedule and familiarize herself with the place before we went away. While we were away Danyel sent us daily feeding pictures and other pictures with a few updates on how he was doing. It really helped us feel that he was safe and loved while we were away. Bmo is obsessed with her and we can’t wait to book her again!”
“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.”
“This was my first booking with Rover and Michele was awesome! She showed a lot of love for my cat and by all the cute pictures she sent, I could see my cat enjoyed her company too. She communicated well and I felt at ease that my cat was well cared for.”

“Soojin was fantastic with my Suki girl for daycare! She sent lots of adorable photos and updates throughout the day, answered all of my questions, and made drop-off and pick-up incredibly easy. I felt completely at ease knowing Suki was in such great hands. My pup came home happy, tired, and content, which is always the best sign. I’m so grateful to have found Soojin and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter. Thank you, Soojin!”

“Flora took such great care of Benji! It was a daycare stay, and I could tell how much Benji loves her. Benji will definitely be staying with Flora again this summer!”
“Ghelina took care of our baby girl last minute. Our family was traveling through San Jose and there were a few attractions we wanted to go to that did not accept pets. Ghelina was a life saver and took such good care of Moka. Communication was excellent with many updates and great pics and video as well. Our girl was super happy when we picked her up. We will definitely use Ghelina's services again next time we are in the area.”
“My dog Otis isn't to keen on meeting new people, & has major separation anxiety issues, but he took to Matt pretty quickly. Matt was very communicative all throughout the day sending pictures & updates, & Otis was such a well behaved dog. I would DEFINITELY recommend Matt to others, and taking Otis back for future sittings!! Thank you Matt for everything! 😀”
About: Elvis, a 14lb shi-poo and his two new buddies, Tucker and Nanook, love having other puppy guests over since his big brother passed on. We are very active and enjoy going for long walks and finding new things to sniff. The house is open with plenty of space to lounge on. The house is tiled except for the guest bedrooms and pretty puppy proof with a close of a few bedroom doors and a blanket on the couch. The pups have full access to a fenced outdoor space where squirrel and bird activity can be found in the mornings. I have had dogs since I was 7 years old and I volunteered at shelter for many years. I grew up with animals of all kinds on a farm in Vermont and its just my way of life. Furry friends are the best! I will cherish yours as much as I cherish mine. Please note that I prefer only weekend stay-cations for your pup but can do mid week if we arrange with enough advance notice. I have a pretty flexible schedule and my husband works from home. The dogs will get plenty of belly rubs and love. Since, we have three of our own, we are very prepared for any doggie need I have a fenced in yard and we we generally keep the dogs corralled to wherever we are or in the non carpet areas. We are happy to crate, if you bring one. Dogs can go on furniture (up to 25lb)
“Diana was wonderful with my 5 month old, energetic golden retriever. It was my first time leaving her with anyone other than family. Diana sent photos throughout the day, and promptly responded whenever I checked in. Cali came home calm and happy. I will definitely be a repeat customer!”
“My dog had a wonderful day of daycare with Grace! I was very impressed with the amount of thought and care she puts into watching the dogs, and I appreciated the updates she sent me throughout the day. I would happily send my dog to Grace again!”
“Yoona, Minjae, and Buddy were amazing with our puppy, Teddy. They shared many photos and videos of Teddy during the day. Teddy is very energetic so I am grateful that they could keep up with him. Best of all, Teddy looked very happy while staying with them. I would book with them again in a heartbeat.”
“Rachel is such a caring person with my nervous Penny. I am so happy we found her and even now that we moved away, we will still make the drive to have Rachel take care of Penny.”
“Thank you to Lauren and Catherine for hosting my furbabies Harley and Bella! They provided exceptional care and kept me in the loop through the day. I recommend them both for anyone looking for a caring pet sitter.”
About: I’ve always had dogs around, and we adopted Annie, our latest furry friend, four years ago. I treat my dogs like my babies, and spend a lot of time playing with them and making sure they are looking pretty at all times! I work from home, so I’m free to care for your dogs during the week. Weekend availability might be a bit spotty. I only leave the dogs alone when I’m heading to the gym (about an hour), but otherwise I always bring them along, even to restaurants! Please provide food, treats, a food bowl, and a dog carrier (it’s super important!). I have plenty of toys :) I live in a townhouse, I don’t have a yard but I take the dogs out for pee breaks every 3-4 hours and 2 20min walks (morning and evening). I have puppy gates in the house to confine them to the 1st floor if we step out, and a crate (if needed). I also have a camera on that floor to monitor the dogs!
About: I've always been a high energy dog loving person. I'd love to visit your dogs and give them long walks to tire them out or shorter walks if they are just wanting to sniff and explore slowly. I can watch them at my house or your house. I'm a flexible and reasonable person! Just really starting this profile but I have many references. Let's connect (: I have a very flexible schedule! I take online college classes. I'm 25 and love to watch dogs and explore with them. They are my heaven! I will cook for your pet after understanding their dietary do's and don'ts. I will play with them. I will cuddle them. I will love them!
“Heather was amazing with Luna. She was great with communication and photo updates and made sure Luna had a walk and playtime. Luna can be a bit anxious but Heather made her feel comfortable and right at home.”
“HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! I come to San Jose for business at least once a week and I always leave my dogs with Yifei! She’s very responsive, ALWAYS takes them on walks, and great with sending pics all day! Ps : she has the sweetest golden retriever!”
About: I've had my own dog ever since I can remember a family dog was always there and I was never without one. I enjoy a dog's company and I'm sure undermine, your dog will feel right at home. I do work full time however my schedule is flexible to come home to give breaks and once I'm home from work they have my full attention with walks until bedtime. The weekend, I am home providing walks and care. Plenty of play time with my dog as well. I live in an apartment which across the street we have a small dog fenced area and as well as a convenient walking area in the surround premises.

“Whinde is great! She’s walked Fred twice now, and this time I got to see that Fred was very content after her walk. She was also able to walk her for a little longer after there was a mix up with the time.”
About: As a seasoned dog sitter with 15 years of experience, I bring a wealth of knowledge and expertise to every pet care opportunity. What sets me apart is my genuine love for animals, coupled with my commitment to providing top-notch care tailored to each pet's unique needs. Whether it's training puppies, or simply offering companionship and fun, I prioritize the well-being and happiness of every furry friend entrusted to my care. With me, your beloved pet will receive nothing short of exceptional attention and affection. We do not have any dogs in our apartment, as our boy Thumper passed away in July. I’d love to take care of your pup as well as we took care of our own! Pet care is a central part of my daily routine, and I prioritize it with the utmost dedication. I schedule specific times for feeding, exercise, and playtime, ensuring that each pet receives the attention and care they deserve. Whether it's early morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening cuddle sessions, I tailor my schedule to accommodate the needs of the pets under my care. Additionally, I maintain open communication with clients to accommodate any specific scheduling requests or changes, ensuring a seamless and stress-free experience for both pets and their owners. In my apartment, safety and comfort are paramount for every pet under my care. I ensure a pet-friendly environment by removing any hazards and providing plenty of space for them to move around. Additionally, I adhere to any specific instructions provided by the client regarding their pet's routine, dietary needs, and exercise regimen. Whether it's playing in designated areas, going for walks in nearby parks, or simply lounging indoors, I make sure pets feel at home and loved throughout their stay.
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and truly consider them part of the family. I currently have three family pit bulls and one French bulldog, so I’m very comfortable caring for both large, high-energy dogs and smaller breeds with different needs and personalities. I genuinely love spending time with pets—whether that’s going on walks, playing, or just giving them attention and affection. I’m also very attentive and detail-oriented when it comes to care. One of my own dogs has a special diet, so I understand how important it is to stay on top of feeding routines, dietary restrictions, and overall health needs. I treat every dog like my own and aim to provide a safe, fun, and loving environment while you’re away. I work a hybrid schedule, which gives me great flexibility for pet care. About half the week I work from home, so I’m available for walks, playtime, and check-ins throughout the day. I’ll primarily be scheduling dog walks during my work-from-home days and on weekends, when I have more time to give your pet my full attention. I’m reliable, responsive, and always make sure pets stick to their usual routines. I focus on creating a safe, comfortable, and structured environment for every pet in my care—whether in my home or my client’s home. My apartment complex has a private dog park where dogs can enjoy space to run and play individually, so they’re not overwhelmed or interacting with unfamiliar dogs. I’m happy to tailor activity to each dog’s needs, whether that’s long walks at nearby parks, shorter neighborhood walks, or more relaxed playtime. I always prioritize safety, so pets will not be around other dogs while in my care unless otherwise requested. I stick closely to your pet’s routine, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, exercise, and any special instructions. I also make sure they get plenty of attention, affection, and mental stimulation so they feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I’ll keep you updated with messages and photos so you have peace of mind knowing your pet is in good hands.

About: Hello, I’m Gisele. Im moved to San Jose in January 2025 from México. Back in Mexico, I used to took care of my family’s and friends’s dogs and cats since 2020 whenever they went on vacation feeding them and playing with them. I used to have a little Maltipoo named Dobby; he was an senior dog, but sadly, he passed away a year ago, leaving a huge void in my life and my heart. As a result, I have experience caring for senior dogs. Although I don’t have much experience here in the U.S. yet, but my neighbor gave me the opportunity to took care of his three dogs (two senior Keeshonds and a puppy French Bulldog) for a week. I enjoyed it so much that it inspired me to create a profile here. I love playing with dogs, I like petting them and taking them for walks. I simply love being with them. My English isn’t perfect, but I can handle basic conversations. I work part-time, so I have a very flexible schedule. On weekends, I am available all day to walk your dogs or look after them at your home. During the week, my availability depends on my school schedule; however, feel free to send me a message, and I will happily see if I can accommodate the times you need. I am typically available to walk dogs and make home visits on any weekday after 3:00 p.m. I take pet care very seriously. While in your home, I will follow your rules and your dog's routine. I will keep your house clean and secure. I will feed your dog at the scheduled time, provide fresh water, play with them, and take them out for walks—exactly as you request. I will lock the doors and send you photos and updates after every visit or walk. Your pet will be happy and safe with me.
“Charlie is the absolute best! She has been doing daily walks for my dog and it is the highlight of his day. His sits by the door waiting for her to arrive, gets so stinking excited when she shows up and toodles off with her in heaven. Charlie provides detailed updates on the walk and is highly communicative with us. In short, I could not recommend Charlie more!”
“Cassidy is great! I always get thorough updates and she has been flexible with our last minute requests. She is very capable and experienced and I know my (sometimes anxious) pup is in good hands!”
“Michele was great - she very professionally and thoughtfully managed our unruly dogs. She was reliable and followed through on all details and communication. She made it easy for us to be away. We didn't have to worrying about a thing. Our furry family members were in safe hands.”
“Terry is great with Ruby! She takes the time to let Ruby greet her friends at the park and is so sweet to take many photos during their walks. I’m so glad I found Terry!”
About: Hi! I’m a De Anza College nursing student and a lifelong dog and animal lover. I’m reliable, routine-focused, and confident caring for a wide range of dogs, including high-energy pups and dogs who need calmer, structured walks. I gained hands-on experience caring for a sweet but reactive Golden Retriever while working as an au pair in Germany, so I’m very attentive to leash safety, triggers, and keeping walks smooth and safe. I’m also raising my own Golden Retriever puppy, Sunny, so I’m comfortable managing energetic dogs and staying consistent with routines. I’m detail-oriented, happy to follow your instructions closely, and I can give oral medications if needed. I’m also gentle with senior dogs who need a slower pace. You can expect thoughtful updates, photos, and calm, consistent care. Pet care fits into my weekly routine. I plan my class/study schedule around my Rover bookings so I can be consistent and on time. On weekdays, I’m typically available for morning, midday, and evening visits/walks (my calendar reflects my exact availability). I prioritize routine, so once we agree on times, I stick to them. I also build in flexibility for longer walks, extra potty breaks, and unexpected needs, and I communicate early if anything changes. Trust and safety are my top priorities, and I treat every pet like my own. In a client’s home: • I will make sure to follow your routine (feeding, potty breaks, walk style, and house rules). • I always double-check doors, gates, and leashes/harnesses before leaving. • Walks are calm and controlled: I avoid risky situations, keep safe distance from triggers, and don’t allow off-leash time unless you’ve explicitly approved a secure area. (I never take pets to dog parks unless the owner requests it and we’ve discussed it in advance.) • I keep your home tidy and secure (lights/locks, wiping paws if needed, quick cleanup after meals). In my home (if boarding/daycare): • Pets are supervised and kept in a calm, clean environment. • I separate pets during meals/treats to prevent resource guarding. • I use positive reinforcement and respect each pet’s comfort level. • I can accommodate crate routines if your pet is crate-trained. Communication: • You’ll get photo/video updates and a short note each visit. • If anything unusual happens (vomiting, injury, appetite changes, behavior shifts), I contact you right away and follow your instructions. • I’m comfortable giving oral medications and caring for seniors who need a gentler pace. I would also prefer a Meet & Greet so I can learn your pet’s routine and make sure we’re a great match.
About: I’ve cared for cats and dogs for many years and have two sweet cats at home. I love helping pets feel happy and secure—whether it’s visiting cats for feeding and play, or taking dogs on safe, relaxed walks that fit their needs. I’m a freelancer with a flexible schedule, so I have plenty of time to visit or walk pets throughout the week. I drive and can easily accommodate different times for feedings, walks, or drop-in visits based on your pet’s needs. I’m very patient and detail-oriented when it comes to caring for pets. I always follow each owner’s instructions carefully to ensure safety and comfort. I can drive to your home for visits, make sure everything is clean and secure, and give your pets calm, reliable care while you’re away.
“Having Ana look after our dogs gave us peace of mind on our vacation. She was reliable and our dogs took to her immediately. Will definitely seek out her services for our next trip.”
“Meara was amazing while we were on vacation! She’s extremely knowledgeable and patient with our 2 pugs. Showed up on time and sent photos every day. You should book her! Your furry friends will be in good hands.”
About: Growing up with a diverse array of pets instilled a deep understanding of their needs. Specializing in cat and reptile care sets me apart as a reliable sitter. Hi! I’m Lexi, a lifelong animal lover with experience caring for cats, dogs, reptiles, and other household pets. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to find someone dependable, communicative, and genuinely caring. Whether I’m dropping in for a quick visit or providing extended care, I strive to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their family is away. I have a special soft spot for cats and understand that many need patience and trust before they warm up to someone new. I also enjoy caring for dogs of all sizes and energy levels and am happy to follow any routines that help your pet feel at home. Pet care fits naturally into my routine! I work full-time in San Jose and am available for morning, evening, weekend, and holiday visits. I keep my Rover calendar updated regularly and will always communicate clearly about my availability. I enjoy spending my free time with animals and love helping pet parents feel confident their pets are cared for while they’re away. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are my top priorities. I believe consistency helps pets feel secure, so I do my best to maintain their normal feeding, exercise, playtime, and medication schedules. I treat every home with respect and provide regular photo updates and communication throughout each visit. My goal is for both you and your pet to feel comfortable, relaxed, and well cared for while you’re apart.

“Matthew was very responsible and communicative. He provided many photo updates of our pup enjoying her stay, and flawlessly followed care instructions around medication, walking and feeding.”
“Amelia is wonderful! We were so happy to be able to be away and know that she's taking good care of our pup. The fact that our anxious little dog loves her says it all.”
“Sofiya was amazing with Myko. We got updates everyday and he seemed to be really happy there. She is great with animals and has a great house for them. Would definitely recommend her to anyone who is looking for a good dog sitter and boarding.”
“Highly recommend! Qi was fantastic with my dogs. I received regular updates and photos, which made me feel so much better while I was away. They clearly love animals and took great care of everything. I will definitely be booking with them again!”
“Lanie and Family were great with Hunter! With updates throughout the stay, and knowing that Hunter was well taken care of! Hunter definitely showed he enjoyed his stay, quite relaxed and happy!”
“Hands down one of the best Rovers I’ve used. Very communicative and friendly, great stimulation for my dog while I was away on an extended trip. Would highly recommend to anyone that wants their pet to have the utmost care and love while away from home. A+ and an easy 5 star rating.”
“Oobleck had a wonderful stay with Michael getting daily walks, lots of belly rubs and scratches. Michael took great care of Oobie and I’ll definitely book him again for a future stay. Thank you Michael 😊 Oobie can’t wait to learn more cooking tips, watch the Roomba, and go on sniff walks with you again.”
“ABSOLUTELY AMAZED! Thank you Jake and his partner for taking care of my Kobe! I have never left my dog, let alone with a dog sitter, so I was going into this very apprehensively and with a bit of anxiety when I decided to use Rover as my last option. I immediately booked Jake because of the long lasting experience with dog sitting and the great reviews! Kobe is not typically approachable by other dogs so it was very important that his care was taken with so much caution. I was able to meet Jake and the area he lives in with Kobe to get a better idea of what would be in store! Jake was very amenable and understanding of Kobe's perks and personality. During my trip away, I felt very at ease with the daily updates and photos from Jake and I was able to actually enjoy my vacation without feeling nervous that Kobe was in the care of someone else. I will definitely trust them to take care of Kobe again and any other future pets! I recommend Jake for any pet parent looking for a trusted sitter!”
“Erika watched our energetic miniature schnauzer, Sally, over Easter weekend and did an amazing job! She kept us well-informed with regular updates and adorable pictures, and followed all of our care instructions perfectly. Her home is very dog-friendly and secure — we never had to worry about Sally getting loose. Erika’s two 12-year-old kids gave Sally tons of attention and playtime, and she came home happy and tired (the best combo!). We’ll definitely be booking with Erika again the next time we’re out of town!”
“The BEST rover. Flora and her husband took awesome care of whisky over the weekend. tons of photos and video every day. Took whisky out more frequently than I did. I can tell that flora do love animals from the heart. I would not hesitate to book with flora again in the future.”
“Best boarding experience ever! She took such great care of Turbo and Yoyo and sent tons of photos and updates. She even made homemade treats for them! we felt completely at ease leaving our pups with her. Highly recommend!”
“Incredible Experience with Yifei! Highly Recommend! This was my first time using Rover, and I was honestly a bit nervous, especially since it was all very last-minute. But Yifei completely put my mind at ease. From the very first moment, she was incredibly kind, patient, and flexible—she was able to fit us in and even allowed us to pick up our puppy, Katsu, in the early morning, which was a huge help! Yifei kept me updated with pictures throughout the day, and it was so comforting to see Katsu so happy and engaged. Usually, my puppy is a bit hesitant with new people, but when he first met Yifei, he didn’t even look back at me! I could tell he felt completely safe and at ease with her, and I think he was probably having so much fun with the other dogs that he didn’t want to come home! On top of all that, Yifei was super easy to communicate with when Katsu accidentally left behind some of his things. She was quick to respond and made the whole process so smooth. I cannot recommend Yifei enough! She’s an absolute gem, and I felt 100% confident that my 10-month-old puppy was in great hands. If you're looking for a kind, reliable, and wonderful sitter, look no further—Yifei is your person!”
“Very good experience. Jie and her husband are true dog lovers and they help taking care of my dog azhao so well when I traveled in California. She had sending videos and pictures every day to me to update azhao’s status which is very helpful. The communication with her was so well throughout the whole boarding.”
“Ben and family were great with my reactive dog, Whiskey. Whiskey got good walks, lots of attention and cuddles! Ben was very communicative, flexible and even accommodated us last minute. He also picked up and dropped off Whiskey - which saved me from a lot of stress. I got regular updates with pictures and funny videos. Overall, I felt like Whiskey was in good hands!”
“Alma was perfect with my Winston! She send daily photos and videos. She was very flexible with her schedule and would def book again!! Thank you so much for everything!”
“Zuko had a great time with Brian. He got multiple walks a day and a lot of play time at home. I got multiple updates with pictures throughout the day. It was reassuring to see that Zuko was well loved and was enjoying his time.”
“We couldn’t be happier with our experience! From the beginning, it was clear how caring, responsible, and genuinely passionate they are about animals. Our Powder was not only well taken care of, but truly loved while we were away. We received regular updates, photos, and messages, which gave us complete peace of mind. Powder was happy, and clearly in love with Garrett when we returned — the best sign of excellent care. It’s such a relief to find someone you can fully trust with both your pet. We would recommend this pet sitter without hesitation to anyone looking for reliable, compassionate, and professional care. We will absolutely be booking again!”
“We loved working with Steve! It was our first time leaving our puppy so we were a little nervous, but Steve made Reese feel right at home and comfortable. He sent us multiple updates every day which I was so grateful for. Not to mention he took us in VERY last minute in a holiday weekend. We will definitely be using him again!”
“We had such a wonderful experience with Carole & Terry! From the start, they were communicative, professional, and incredibly warm. Olive felt comfortable right away and quickly made herself at home. Carole and Terry went above and beyond to make sure Olive was happy and comfortable, and we received regular updates and photos that gave us total peace of mind. In all the photos, Olive was either smiling, curled up with Carole on the couch, totally relaxed on her back, or trotting through puddles on rainy-day walks. Carole and Terry's home is beautiful and set up perfectly for keeping your pet safe and well cared for. We will absolutely be booking with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable and loving sitters!”
