“With only a couple of days notice I asked Stefanie if she’d watch our shy little dog overnight who also needed to receive a couple of oral medications. Stefanie responded quickly to my request. Drop off and pick was easy and I received texts with updates & pictures showing our dog enjoying her stay. Our dog came home happy and healthy. Thank you Stefanie!”
“Brandi was absolutely amazing! She was able to accommodate our specific needs and was very communicative and sent lots of pictures during our trip. She has a really nice set up for the dogs and also printed off a big stack of pictures for us to take home. This has been the easiest and the best experience we have had with boarding and I will definitely be returning for future trips! We can’t thank Brandi enough! ❤️”
“Lauren and Ben took such kind care of Mira for a few days. Their home is full of family warmth and happy dogs, and Mira felt right at home. Communication was smooth and easy, and Lauren sent daily updates and photos, which I really appreciated. I would definitely bring Mira back when I’m in the area. Thank you so much!”
“Charmaine did a great job boarding our fur baby. She was very anxious about being away from home for a few nights. Charmaine even let her sleep with her and shared pics. Very sweet and caring.”
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since college and love being able to give them the quality time they need while their family is away! I have open availability on the weekends as needed. On Fridays I am in the office, but have the flexibility to choose my start time weekly. I like to get to know every dog personally to make sure I meet their needs. Whether they love to be active, want belly rubs, crave brushing sessions or outdoor adventures, I want to make sure your fur babies are having a great time while they are with me.
“Crystal was excellent in every way. We loved all the pictures that she sent us. Riley clearly had a wonderful time and I am sure he is missing his dog friends! He came home happy and tired from all of the play.”
“We had a great experience with Angela and her kind son! They took wonderful care of Bo for two days and kept us updated with photos and messages, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. Bo came home happy, healthy, and well cared for. We've already booked for them to watch Bo again and I recommend them to anyone looking for reliable and kind pet sitters.”
“Debbie was fantastic, just the perfect person to watch our Labrador while we were away. She was incredibly communicative and open, she treated our dog like a member of her family and was beyond helpful in taking stress off our shoulders while we were gone and unable to take our dog. We will definitely use her again and strongly recommend to anyone who wants their dog to be in the sweetest, caring hands.”
“Michael and his wife are so sweet and our pup loves going over to their house! We have taken our Levi multiple times for day sitting and overnight boarding and are so happy to have found them!”
About: Hello animal lovers - I have benefitted from Rover for dog sitting and realize it's something I'd love to do myself. My husband (a social worker) and I are both dog lovers and have a dog (a Frenchie) as well. I work from home (I run a marketing agency I started 12 year ago) and alas much of typical day I'm on zoom, and treasure the breaks for walking and loving on the dogs. While new to Rover, if been helping out friends and neighbors with dog care and logistics and sharing the love for years I'm reliable, work from home, and would love to know how you could use some help. Currently offering to sit or board one dog at a time or arrange prescheduled walks. I'll treat them like family. Comfortable with dogs of many sizes and personalities, and happy to provide updates and photos for peace of mind. Looking forward to meeting your furry friend! Our dog Fiona, a frenchie, plays well with others and has some unique needs including no rough play + daily medicine needs so we're familiar with special rules and medical needs. We do a morning walk, a mid day walk, an "after work" walk and a before bed walk. I work from home so am genrrally around all day. While flexible, I imagine at least initially the primary offering will be to host and care for your dog at our place but am open to house sitting if there's a great fit, I work from home. I can host your dog weekdays and weekends but know on weekends we may have friends (and sometimes friends with dogs) stop by. We have a fenced in deck otherwise for excercise we take leashed walks. I currently am only offering care in my own home and plan to only host one additional dog overnight at a time. Ask me any questions you'd like.
“Virginia was SO sweet and took such good care of my dogo. It was his first time being left with someone other than me or family & he LOVED it. She sent updates every day & communicated very well when I had mentioned I was nervous leaving him. He acted like he didn’t wanna leave when I picked him up! Definitely recommend!”

About: Hey, I’m Chappy! Christopher is my legal name… I specialize in walking / caring for large dogs and working breeds, but am happy to work with all breeds and sizes. I have worked with high-energy, reactive, less than sociable dogs too, giving them the physical and metal fulfillment they need. I personally have two larger dogs, Count (German Shepherd Husky mix, 110lbs) and Bentley (German Shepherd Dutch Shepherd mix, 80lbs). I’ve also worked with a range of breeds from pugs to golden retrievers to Alsatian shepherds to American bull dogs. I’m a freelance, work from home marketer, so I’m pretty much always at home and available to take care of dogs, or am able to come to you and take your pup out. We live on roughly 8 acres in Sonoma County, so there is plenty of room at our home for dogs to run and explore. I have two friendly German Shepherd mix dogs that love having friends over. We also have a secure deck that the dogs loving sunbathing on and watching the world go by. I can crate your dog, if need be (we have a crate / room for crates), along with the ability to keep dogs separate if need be. Should your dog use a e-collar of any sort, I’m trained in properly using them, as both of my dogs are trained to them. If your dog loves to hike, we regularly go for hikes on the trails around Sonoma County, or to Dillon Beach to run around off leash.
“Bernadette was very flexible when I needed to change my drop off time. She has a lovely shady yard and beautifully calm home. My DAISEY really enjoyed her stay there. I highly recommend Bernadette. Her two little doggies were great playmates.”
“Sarah was great to work with! She went out of her way to bring our bernadoodle (Berkeley) to our wedding 15 minutes away so that she could be the ring bearer! Highly recommended Sarah and will use her anytime we are up in Sonoma!”
“We had a great experience with Jessica! She responded quickly, was kind, and kept us updated with pictures and messages throughout our dog’s stay. Our pup seemed happy and well taken care of—we could tell he enjoyed his time there.”
“Diego was absolutely wonderful with our teddy bear! He gave him all of his meds and made sure that he was comfortable! He is such a happy boy! Other times we’ve had other sitters and he comes back different. Our Teddy came back the same if not better! We will definitely book him again such a wonderful person inside and out! Thank you Diego!”
About: I will spoil your dog with attention and provide you with complete peace of mind. You can rest assured that your dog is safe and happy and getting the care you specify (such as health needs or special diet) and the love your dog wants (games, walks, toys, treats, hugs, and other canine amusements). My work is part-time, online, and at my own pace, so I can easily shift my attention to your dog's needs for walks and playtime. I have a small fenced yard with artificial grass, and there is a large park at the end of the street, two or three small parks in the neighborhood, and a 2-mile trail to downtown. I have whatever a dog needs but ideally, pets should arrive with their own favorite "furniture," toys, and treats.
“I was warried leaving my shy dog but Lynette's experience was so valuable. She shared how Moorea felt comfortable after we left text and sent photos throughout the day. She knew exactly what to do with a shy dog and this saves so much time. It was a great experience and will be booking our vacation soon. My dog loves big dog and her dog Tori was so well behaved and sweet around Moorea.”

“This was our first time leaving town and leaving our kittens at home with our senior cat, and Stefanie made the whole experience so much easier for us. She was very patient with all of our instructions and communication, kept us updated with follow-ups, and most importantly, gave our cats lots of love and attention. We felt very reassured knowing they were in her care!!!”
“I couldn't have been happier! Charmaine's gentle, calm and caring nature ensured me that my cat would be well taken care of while I was away. I will definitely contact Charmaine again when I'm going out of town. I highly recommend her!”
“Alexandra was wonderful. She looked after my kitty for a few days while I was on vacation and he seemed very happy when I got back home! The house was kept clean and tidy, you would never know anyone was there.”
“Lauren is honestly the best! I went out of town and she came by once a day to care for my cat Pepper for nine days! She went above and beyond taking pictures with her and playing with her and taking videos and sending them to me and giving me my daily check-ins, in addition to just the normal feeding and changing her litter box. Pepper loved her time with Lauren and I honestly think Pepper has been missing her since she is gone because she played with her so much. She is so mellow, so sweet, so friendly, so reliable and responsible, and I knew pepper was in the best of hands when I was a 6 hour plane ride away! I absolutely recommend her and will be using her again in the future for sure!”

I have always had cats when I was a child too so when having to care for them I do have a background in both dog and cat sitting and walking.

About: Caring for cats has always been a joy for me. I’ve spent years looking after them at home and have come to truly appreciate their unique personalities. Cats may be known for their independence, but they also have a deep need for affection and companionship—on their own terms, of course! I understand how to respect a cat's space while also recognizing those sweet moments when they want to cuddle, play, or simply sit nearby. From keeping their litter box clean to making sure they’re eating well and feeling secure, I provide the calm, attentive care that helps cats feel at ease in their own environment. Whether your kitty is shy or a total lap cat, I’ll make sure they feel loved and cared for while you’re away.

About: I grew up with dogs and budgies”, prep-pandemic I worked at a county humane society as an animal tech, I was a naturalist at a zoo during graduate school, I walk dogs for a few neighbors, and I am a volunteer at a local humane society with 150 hours of volunteer time caring for dogs/cats/and the occasional other small mammal. I am also certified to rescue stranded dolphins and turtles. I have a small business which I mostly run from home. I also help out a few neighbors with dog walking/bathroom breaks when the owners can’t. Safety is my most important consideration. Your pet becomes a family member to me and I’m sad to say goodbye. I have a wide variety of toys, treats, walking gear, and comfy places to lounge. I will keep your pet stimulated, comfortable, and clean.

“Jessica was great with my big dog. I made a very last minute request and was lucky she was free! When I picked my pup up, he was calm and happy. She also provided pictures during. Thank you ! :)”
“Caitlin was great, and Honey had a fantastic time at daycare! She was easy to coordinate with, great at communication. We realized only a few days beforehand we needed someone to watch our dog, and she agreed and did not need to meet Honey first. Our dogs got along great and they must have played all day since Honey was really tired the rest of the day.”
“We appreciated how quickly Vicente responded to our query and answered our questions before we booked. On the day of Snowy's daycare stay, everything went smoothly and Snowy had a great time. Vicente is a pro and knows dogs.”

About: I love animals. I’m compassionate, caring, dependable, honest and sincere. I’ve been around dogs all of my life. I’m a mom of two boys, a caregiver and I also have two dogs of my own. Before starting a family, I volunteered at local animal shelters and worked at the Marin Humane Society for almost a year as an animal care technician.

“Diego was absolutely fantastic with my 13lb girl. He took time to meet her and learn about her personality and let her get adjusted. He asked a lot of important questions about her and is an extremely professional and sensitive care giver. By the end of her time with him, she allowed him to pick her up, which is a huge sign of trust for her. I would recommend Diego to any pet owner looking for someone to trust with their precious non-humans.”

I've also kept busy with boarding in my home for friends and acquaintances. I love dogs!!

About: I've been caring for pets since I was 10 years old, and over the years, it's become second nature to me. I have hands-on experience with both small breed dogs and cats, and I understand their unique personalities and needs. Whether it’s playtime, feeding, or just some quiet cuddles, I know how to make them feel comfortable and safe. I’m also very attentive to pets’ bathroom cues and routines—an important part of keeping them healthy and happy. Currently, I have a pug and a labrador at home, so I’m very familiar with both the playful energy of larger dogs and the special care smaller breeds often require. Your furry friend will be in loving, experienced hands! As someone who works from home, I have the flexibility and time to give pets the attention and care they need throughout the day. Pet sitting fits perfectly into my routine—I’m able to provide regular check-ins, walks, playtime, and cuddle sessions without any rush. Because I’m home most of the time, your pets won’t be left alone for long stretches. I can easily adapt to their schedule, whether that means early morning feedings, midday walks, or keeping them company during the quieter parts of the day. My flexible work setup allows me to be present, responsive, and fully committed to your pet’s comfort and well-being. At my home, your pet will feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I have a fully fenced yard, which is perfect for dogs to run, play, and get their exercise in a secure space. Whether it’s a quick potty break or some time to burn off energy, they’ll have room to move around freely and safely. Inside, I have crates available for dogs who are crate-trained or just need a quiet, cozy space to relax. I always make sure pets feel at ease, whether they prefer lounging indoors, exploring the yard, or snuggling up for some one-on-one attention. Your pet will be treated like part of the family in a clean, calm, and pet-friendly environment.

This custom experience will allow me to learn about what makes your pup/kitty tick and how to make the best out of their time being away from you!
About: I have taken care of horses, pigs, dogs, cats, and sheep. I live on a ranch and work with animals daily and love doing it! We have very large dogs and I am accustomed to working with all different temperaments. I am open to hard work and I am flexible to changing circumstances. I will take care of your home and pets as though they are my own :) I work part-time and am available on short notice. I am also quite active and enjoy going on adventures and would happily take your pet along if that is something they enjoy! I can handle a lot from your dogs! I am capable of dealing with large animals and very adaptable to circumstances. I will make sure to keep everything clean and follow directions thoroughly.
“My husband and I (and of course Prince, our dog) think Stephan is great. He has training experience with dogs which is a definite plus and why we chose him for the job. We'll definitely be calling on Stephen in the future and booking him for days when we're not able to walk Prince ourselves. We also love the fact that Stephan has experience with doggy daycare, as we'd like to see Prince socialize more and his being with dog play mates offers a well rounded experience. Prince really like him. Dogs are good indicators of people and he thinks Stephen is a winner, so do we. We'll be booking again in a few weeks and are very pleased with Prince coming home thoroughly satisfied from a long walk. Thanks Rover!”
About: I have a lot of experience with pet sitting. Not only have I owned dogs for over 20 years; but I have also watched my friends, families, and coworker's pets. My favorite thing about cats and dogs is how innocent they are, how silly they get when excited or happy, and how as they grow up they start to pick up personality traits from their owners. I will ensure your pet's safety while you are away and give my all to making them happy. I feel that I am the best candidate for both dog and cat sitting due to my experience and my ability to be patient, caring, and kind. I look forward to working with you in the near future. My day job is hybrid so I am able to plan my schedule accordingly. Pet sitting does not affect my day to day schedule and I look forward to meeting new fur babies. My pets are fed on a schedule to ensure their diets are regular. I always make sure that the floor is swept and vacuumed so that they don't pick anything up from the floor. I clean their food and water bowl daily and wash my dogs paws once they come in from walking on the street.
About: I’ve loved animals since I was a child and have cared for pets for friends, neighbors, and family for many years. I enjoy spending quality time playing, walking, and giving pets affection so they feel relaxed while their owners are away. I am responsible, gentle, and always follow care instructions closely to keep pets happy and safe. Pet care is seamlessly integrated into my daily routine, prioritizing regular feeding, exercise, and playtime. A structured schedule ensures consistency, creating a stable and comforting environment for pets under my care. Daily walks, meals, and affectionate interactions are thoughtfully planned to cater to their well-being and happiness. In my home, I maintain a safe and pet-friendly environment, ensuring secure spaces for them to explore. For client's homes, I prioritize the pet's familiar surroundings, adhering to any specific care instructions provided. Trust is paramount, and I offer a reliable and attentive approach, keeping both pets and clients reassured about their well-being throughout the service.
About: I have had a dog since I have been born I have owned a total of 5 different dogs and overall it is a nice hobby to take them out on walks, feed them, etc. I am working part time at the moment to help with college expenses but will do my absolute best to fit your pets into my schedule ! I hope to work with you soon :) I have a little baby yorkee to help your pet feel welcomed, safe, and trusted in the environment he will be around, and overall I love taking care of dogs
About: Hello! My name is Chiara. In addition to walking and taking care of dogs, I can also pet-sit cats and other animals in the household. I have experience administering medicine to animals, as well as keeping constant attention on those that require more daily assistance. I have had 2 cats (1 with special medical needs) in the past 11 years and also have taken care of large dog breeds that were owned by my family, including huskies. I know how to handle and control the attention of a big dog on walks. A little about me; I am Master's student at Rice University, but my hometown is sonoma county. I am part time, and will update my availability as often as I can. Usually I am free more around the holiday seasons as well as summer. I do drop-in house visits, dog walking, and cat care. I am comfortable giving animals medication in pill and liquid form if needed. My topmost priority is ensuring that your animal is safe, secure, and happy while you are gone!
About: I love dogs! I have had two amazing dogs in my childhood and absolutly love dogs. I am a very responsible and promise to care and love for your dog while you are away. I have always had cats when I was a child too so when having to care for them I do have a background in both dog and cat sitting and walking. I love going on walks and believe that dogs should be walked to get their engergy out. I am looking to walk dogs not only to get money but also getting workout myself. I promise to care and love for your animals and will always listen and respect the wishes that you have. When I set my mind something I achieve that goal so when I would commit to walking your dog, I will. Thank you I am working an on call full time job as well as a student online. Availability will vary depending on the day and time. Thank you I personally don't have any pets at home currently, I can't afford it and am a student. I love animals so this helps getting my animal needs without owning my own dog or cat.
About: I'm extremely attentive to what the dog needs; whether it's rubs, water, or a bathroom break. By the end of the day, I'll be one of the dog's best buddies. I'm easy to get a hold of and can coordinate location, time, and availability. Both week days and weekends are great for me, just let me know! I'm a playmate but can also keep an eye on them if they want a little bit of space and freedom. I'll find the balance between safety and fun!
About: I've been surrounded by animals for as long as I can remember, growing up with a lovable dog named Marley (in my profile picture). At just 10 years old, I started walking dogs around my neighborhood, and that grew into a passion for pet care. While I’ve mostly catsat over the years, I’ve also had the unique experience of snakesitting! Whether furry, scaly, or somewhere in between, I love all animals and treat every pet like my own. My schedule is currently open and will be until this upcoming school year. My other passion is working with children and i’m planning to be a substitute teacher starting this fall! I grew up with the notion “leave the place better than you found it.” I’m very aware of leaving a clients home nice and clean. I’m not afraid of picking up pet messes and i’m very good at putting things back where I found them. I pay close attention to care instructions as I believe it’s important to keep a pet on their familiar schedule.
About: I Love Wet Noses, Sloppy Kisses and a Wagging Tail. My name is Noelle. My love for animals began at a very early age. There hasn't been a time in my life when pets weren't a part of it. Pets are my passion! My experience with animals is personal and professional. I am a pet owner and I have been a Veterinary Assistant since 2014. I have experience caring for cats and dogs. I have worked with many animals and am comfortable walking, feeding, providing proper medication for their individual needs, playing with and caring for your pets. I am an energetic undergraduate student with a flexible schedule. I look forward to providing you peace of mind and the utmost in care for you and your four legged family members.

“With only a couple of days notice I asked Stefanie if she’d watch our shy little dog overnight who also needed to receive a couple of oral medications. Stefanie responded quickly to my request. Drop off and pick was easy and I received texts with updates & pictures showing our dog enjoying her stay. Our dog came home happy and healthy. Thank you Stefanie!”
“Brandi was absolutely amazing! She was able to accommodate our specific needs and was very communicative and sent lots of pictures during our trip. She has a really nice set up for the dogs and also printed off a big stack of pictures for us to take home. This has been the easiest and the best experience we have had with boarding and I will definitely be returning for future trips! We can’t thank Brandi enough! ❤️”
“Lauren and Ben took such kind care of Mira for a few days. Their home is full of family warmth and happy dogs, and Mira felt right at home. Communication was smooth and easy, and Lauren sent daily updates and photos, which I really appreciated. I would definitely bring Mira back when I’m in the area. Thank you so much!”
“Crystal was excellent in every way. We loved all the pictures that she sent us. Riley clearly had a wonderful time and I am sure he is missing his dog friends! He came home happy and tired from all of the play.”
“We had a great experience with Angela and her kind son! They took wonderful care of Bo for two days and kept us updated with photos and messages, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. Bo came home happy, healthy, and well cared for. We've already booked for them to watch Bo again and I recommend them to anyone looking for reliable and kind pet sitters.”
“Debbie was fantastic, just the perfect person to watch our Labrador while we were away. She was incredibly communicative and open, she treated our dog like a member of her family and was beyond helpful in taking stress off our shoulders while we were gone and unable to take our dog. We will definitely use her again and strongly recommend to anyone who wants their dog to be in the sweetest, caring hands.”
“Virginia was SO sweet and took such good care of my dogo. It was his first time being left with someone other than me or family & he LOVED it. She sent updates every day & communicated very well when I had mentioned I was nervous leaving him. He acted like he didn’t wanna leave when I picked him up! Definitely recommend!”
About: Hey, I’m Chappy! Christopher is my legal name… I specialize in walking / caring for large dogs and working breeds, but am happy to work with all breeds and sizes. I have worked with high-energy, reactive, less than sociable dogs too, giving them the physical and metal fulfillment they need. I personally have two larger dogs, Count (German Shepherd Husky mix, 110lbs) and Bentley (German Shepherd Dutch Shepherd mix, 80lbs). I’ve also worked with a range of breeds from pugs to golden retrievers to Alsatian shepherds to American bull dogs. I’m a freelance, work from home marketer, so I’m pretty much always at home and available to take care of dogs, or am able to come to you and take your pup out. We live on roughly 8 acres in Sonoma County, so there is plenty of room at our home for dogs to run and explore. I have two friendly German Shepherd mix dogs that love having friends over. We also have a secure deck that the dogs loving sunbathing on and watching the world go by. I can crate your dog, if need be (we have a crate / room for crates), along with the ability to keep dogs separate if need be. Should your dog use a e-collar of any sort, I’m trained in properly using them, as both of my dogs are trained to them. If your dog loves to hike, we regularly go for hikes on the trails around Sonoma County, or to Dillon Beach to run around off leash.
“Sarah was great to work with! She went out of her way to bring our bernadoodle (Berkeley) to our wedding 15 minutes away so that she could be the ring bearer! Highly recommended Sarah and will use her anytime we are up in Sonoma!”
“We had a great experience with Jessica! She responded quickly, was kind, and kept us updated with pictures and messages throughout our dog’s stay. Our pup seemed happy and well taken care of—we could tell he enjoyed his time there.”
“Diego was absolutely wonderful with our teddy bear! He gave him all of his meds and made sure that he was comfortable! He is such a happy boy! Other times we’ve had other sitters and he comes back different. Our Teddy came back the same if not better! We will definitely book him again such a wonderful person inside and out! Thank you Diego!”
About: I will spoil your dog with attention and provide you with complete peace of mind. You can rest assured that your dog is safe and happy and getting the care you specify (such as health needs or special diet) and the love your dog wants (games, walks, toys, treats, hugs, and other canine amusements). My work is part-time, online, and at my own pace, so I can easily shift my attention to your dog's needs for walks and playtime. I have a small fenced yard with artificial grass, and there is a large park at the end of the street, two or three small parks in the neighborhood, and a 2-mile trail to downtown. I have whatever a dog needs but ideally, pets should arrive with their own favorite "furniture," toys, and treats.
“I was warried leaving my shy dog but Lynette's experience was so valuable. She shared how Moorea felt comfortable after we left text and sent photos throughout the day. She knew exactly what to do with a shy dog and this saves so much time. It was a great experience and will be booking our vacation soon. My dog loves big dog and her dog Tori was so well behaved and sweet around Moorea.”
“Earl was great to work with! He is easy going and great with animals. He was flexible with drop off and pick up times. I would definitely recommend this provider and we will surely be using him again in the future.”
“Had a really good experience with Patricia while we were in out of town. She was reliable, easy to communicate with, and took great care of Bo while we were away. We appreciated the updates and knowing she was being looked after. It made traveling a lot less stressful, and we came home to a happy dog. Would definitely use her and her nice family again!”
About: I am a devoted animal person. I have had dogs and cats my whole life, and am experienced with puppies as well as senior dogs. I currently work remotely and have a flexible schedule. I am available for dog walking weekdays and some weekends. Open to special requests and needs. My home has a large doggie door which opens to large fenced in yard. Dogs come in and out as they please. Lots of play toys and special attention.
“Tim did awesome with my puppy Bogie. I deal with anxiety and Tim helped keep me calm and not worrying by sending pictures and texting me how Bogie was doing. It was the first time I’ve left him with anyone. Bogie and Cali did great together. I think they might be missing each other a bit. lol. Definitely will book again when I need to leave Bogie.”
“Caren was great! My dog seemed very happy there and she seemed to take great care of her. Her house is in a nice neighborhood and my dog’s age got a lot of good walks and visits to the dog park, etc. Would definitely recommend Caren!”
“Susan was an amazing caretaker for Ryder this past weekend! She took him on several fun walks and made it feel like a little vacation for him. We loved receiving her updates and adorable photos throughout his stay. Ryder was clearly very well cared for, and we would absolutely love to have Susan help with him again in the future.”
