“Our dog Buddy had a great time with Mario. We can tell because Buddy came back really calm and relaxed. Mario kept us well informed on Buddy through the whole stay with pictures and info. We'll definitely book Mario again.”
“You won’t find better dog care than Katie and Jason! Attentive, caring and loving- they went above and beyond with walks, playtime and snuggles. Benji had a wonderful time staycationing with them! Super great communication before and during stay, too! Our pooches will be back. Can’t recommend more highly. 🩷”
“Annie was wonderful with Boba! She was very responsive and sent lots of photos and videos during his stay, which we really appreciated. Boba looked so happy and had a great time playing with the other pups. We could tell he was very well cared for. Highly recommend!”
“Jenisa took excellent care of my Roxy and I was stress free the whole time I was gone. Roxy learned better manners and is more settled and ladylike since I have been gone. Thank you Jenisa!”
“Evie watched our dog Willow for a little over a week while we were on vacation. From the regular updates we got, I can tell that she was giving so much care and attention to Willow, and that Willow loved hanging out with her as well! We really appreciate the peace of mind especially as this is the longest we’ve left our dog with a sitter on rover. We would definitely use her services again.”
“James did an excellent job with a long-weekend care of my dog. My rescue senior canine has serious human trust and personal space issues. I discussed these in advance with James, and he was willing to accommodate my pup’s needs. The stay went very well, and James communicated with me (pictures) every day. It was clear James cared very much about my pup and made the stay as pleasant and calm as possible for him. I recommend James for pet care and I will use him again when I travel and need a safe place for my canine.”
“We could not be happier with the care Ivana provided for our golden doodle, Gigi, during our week away. From the moment we connected, Ivana was incredibly responsive and caring which gave us complete peace of mind. She kept us updated every day with photos and videos, and it was clear that Gigi was happy, comfortable, and receiving lots of love and attention. Ivana treated Gigi like her own, and we truly appreciated the care and thoughtfulness she showed throughout the entire stay. Ivana provided 10/10 care, and we would absolutely trust her with Gigi again. So happy we have found her. Thank you, Ivana! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”
“I am very thankful for Yang who took excellent care of Howie! She is very detail oriented and went above and beyond to make sure he was comfortable. I could quickly tell from the photos that he was having a great time. She was patient as he adjusted to his new space and in no time, it was like Howie was on a vacation of this own ! I would definitely recommend Yang to others. We plan to use Yang again in the future.”
“We've boarded our dog, Lucky, with Jackson twice. Each time, Jackson sent us updates every day and he followed all the instructions we have for Lucky carefully. Lucky always had a blast every time he stayed with Jackson. Jackson took him to the dog park almost every day. It's a bonus that Lucky likes to hang out with Rupert and cuddle with him. We feel at ease to know that Lucky will have a good time.”
“Micaela, thank you so much for taking such great care of Sunny Sunshine! It was wonderful to have a little getaway, knowing that he was in your capable hands. Thanks again and happy holidays to you.”
“Tina took excellent care of my dog and gave helpful updates throughout my dog's stay with her. She spent a lot of time playing with my dog and also shared many cute photos. Tina was easy to communicate with and I would definitely board my dog with her again. Her dog Sharkie is also very cute and playful and got along wonderfully with my dog.”
“Jennifer is a sweet cat caretaker. She had multiple rooms for my cat to get comfortable in, since it took my cat a little while to come out of her shell. I loved seeing the videos of Jennifer playing with my cat.”
“Ana was amazing! She gave us the best daily updates with pictures and info on the highlights of their day. She had lots of pictures of our dog on walks with her, and it seemed like our dog even got to the point of playing with her cat by the end! Ana was a kind and attentive dog sitter, and we will definitely be using her again!!”
“Ivan was so good to Toko and Arya while I was gone! They're both small dogs who are reserved around new people and new dogs. Toko came to him with a broken foot and a bunch of built up anxiety since he couldn't exercise, while Arya has way too much energy. He was very careful to make sure Toko stayed comfortable and couldn't injure himself, but also took Arya on several long adventures. Ivan sent me many great photos and daily updates of the pups while I was on vacation, which greatly reduced my own anxiety over them staying over! I could tell they had a great time, and I won't hesitate to book Ivan again!”
“I can’t say enough great things about Jas! He was able to care for our dog Murphy last minute. He was very responsive, sent updates and pictures throughout our whole trip. The pictures of Murphy showed how relaxed and happy he was! Pretty sure Murph came back smelling better 😆 We will definitely be using Jas again.”
“Di helped me out when I needed a last-minute booking- and he turned out to be a great find! He was incredibly flexible about drop-off/pick-up, super responsive to messages, and sent me a bunch of photos and video updates. He also took Oliver on walks at the times I requested. My pup came back calm and happy. Will definitely book Di for future dog boarding needs!”
“Zoe is amazing!!! Our 10-year old little dachshund/mutt mix is a bit anxious and used to us being around all the time. Zoe specializes in boarding this kind of dog in her home, as she is a very sweet, mellow person and provides a calm environment for the animals she boards. She walked him every day and let him out on her patio for sunshine and fresh air. Inside, he was welcome to snuggle next to her on the couch. She was available for a meet-and-greet right away and was able to accommodate our last-minute request. Our little guy spent a whole week there and was VERY happy. We could tell from the daily videos he was loved, happy and well-cared for. Definitely go with Zoe, especially if you have an older and/or anxious pet.”
“Avantika and her fiancé were amazing hosts for Aya! They made me feel very comfortable by meeting us a few days in advance, and consistently provided updates with photos / videos while we were on vacation. Aya had an amazing time with plenty of outdoor activity. I would not hesitate to rebook with Avantika again!”
“Joy was awesome with my dog (Banana). She followed all provided instructions and lots of updates and photos throughout the stay. She was extra flexible with my schedule. I will definitely reach out to Joy when we need a sitter next!”
“Zicheng took great care of my dog while we were out of town. He sent lots of photos and video updates. My dog is normally very nervous around new people, but had a great time, especially playing with Kennedy!”

“I cannot recommend this sitter enough! They took absolutely wonderful care of my cat, Anya. They were incredibly responsible and detail-oriented—making sure to refill her dry food, top off her automatic water fountain, and even fill up her extra water bowls. They also gave her the exact treats I left out (freeze-dried treats and Temptations) and spent a long time actively playing with her. In addition, they also sent me the most beautiful, high-quality photos of her! I felt completely at ease. Highly, highly recommend!”
“We had such a wonderful experience with Irina! She came by once a day to care for our cat, Simba, while we were away, and we couldn’t be more grateful for her. She sent us pictures and videos every day, which gave us so much peace of mind, and she was always so warm and loving with Simba. Irina is incredibly sweet, trustworthy, and reliable. You can genuinely tell how much she loves animals and how well she understands them. We felt completely comfortable knowing Simba was in her care. We would absolutely recommend Irina to anyone looking for someone kind and dependable to care for their pets, and we would happily book with her again! ❤️”
“Bo took the absolute best care of my cat Morty! It's uncommon that he will warm up to people so quickly, so I knew it was a great sign when he came out of his shell after the first day. Bo was extremely attentive and communicative about her visits with Morty. I also really appreciated the updates and photos she sent!”
“Rachel is the absolute pro, super sweet, and highly diligent in her communication and visits. Our cat Scott loved her at first sight. She kept him entertained and well fed, even though he needed special attention with his medicine. The litter box area was clean. For sure we'd be booking the drop-in visits with Rachel next time we travel.”
“Rachael took great care of Louie and Leo. All the photos showed happy and well cared for cats. Rachael was quick to respond when we need to extend our trip. It’s great to have that comfort when we were away.”
“Mackenzie took wonderful care of our cat for an extended period of time. After every visit, she sent us detailed updates that gave us great peace of mind. We truly can’t thank her enough. Thanks to her, we never had to worry about our cat while we were away. Since she is a cat owner herself, she built a great bond with our cat. I would highly recommend Mackenzie to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and trustworthy pet sitter.”
“Jennifer was an amazing petsitter! She took wonderful care of our fur babies while we were gone, making sure to spend plenty of time playing with them and sending us cute daily updates on the Rover app. She also went the extra mile by taking care of the house and bringing in our packages while we were gone. We would gladly recommend Jennifer to anyone who needs a petsitter. Thank you again!”
About: I've taken care of cats of every kind since little. Lately I’ve been helping my neighbors, friends and family with their pets by checking in, feeding them , and playing with them...
“Cheng is THE BEST pet sitter ever. He is responsible, reliable, responsive and friendly -- and he went to extraordinary measures to help find my cat while I was out of town. (He was not responsible for her disappearance!) Natasha would not have been recovered without his patience and assistance and kindness. If I could give him 6 stars, I would!”
“Yiqing took excellent care of our two cats while we were away. She was attentive, responsible, and clearly took the time to get to know each kitty. By the middle of our trip, both of them had bonded with Yiqing—which says a lot! We came home to a clean house and two happy, relaxed cats. Highly recommend Yiqing!”
“Yuemin was great with my two cats, I especially enjoyed the photos that she sent and her bringing in a package that arrived while I was gone. I have already booked a second visit with her!”
“Second time we had Chloe watch our two cats. She gave them their daily medicine and food, took lots of pictures, and went above and beyond in tidying up messes. Also the cats seem to really love her.”
“Annie was amazing!! My normally timid cat warmed up to her very quickly and she got some playtime which I didn't expect at all! Annie was very friendly when I met her and quick to respond to my messages, and gave me thorough updates and lots of photos after each drop in visit. I really appreciated the love and attention Annie was able to give my cat while I was gone! Thank you!!”
About: Evie: I have experience caring for both kittens and cats with health conditions who need extra attention and gentle care. I understand that cats can be sensitive to new environments, so I always approach them calmly and patiently. I also volunteered in Korea with cat rescue and adoption efforts, where I helped care for rescued cats and supported their transition into loving homes. These experiences have taught me how to provide attentive and compassionate care while creating a safe and comfortable environment for every cat. I’m always happy to send regular updates, photos, or videos so owners can feel reassured and connected with their pets while they are away.
About: I’ve provided care for cats for a couple of years now. Care has included feeding, play time and cuddles. I also understand the importance of water consumption and enjoy giving kitties lickable treats.
About: I've been around cats almost my whole life. I volunteered at an animal shelter in high school, have had cats of my own since 2013, pet sat for friends and family, and have had experience raising kittens as well as experience in TNR.

“Jenisa and her family were outstanding pet sitters for our senior Pug. We received regular updates, and it was clear Gus felt safe and like a part of their household. Jenisa is incredibly kind and thoughtful - I recommend her without reservation.”
About: I don’t have problem taking caredogs. My friends and family used to relied on me to check in with, feed and play with their pets. I’m currently working part-time and it’s manageable, so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your pups I’m available boarding especially weekdays 7am onwards. My place is a free space for one dog at time especially to trained dog I dont do much restriction so dog can move and play around, I live close to lake in foster city and its so easy access to walk the dog any time in a day.
About: I have raised my own dog (excluding my families dog) for the past 8 years and have raised puppies for friends in the past. I raised my friends puppy for two years while they left the country . I am also very flexible with my work schedule which allows me to take dogs out consistently if needed. I am fully remote and my job allows me to take breaks whenever needed. I am consistently off at 3 pm and from there I have no other obligations, making pet care my main priority. I usually walk my dog multiple times a day because of how close I am to my local dog park. I have a 15 pound chihuahua that is allowed to use all pieces of our furniture. Any other dog that stays with us will be treated the same. We have a heater when it gets cold as well as multiple blankets that are specifically for pets. We live in an apartment that has a lot of grass fields to walk around.
“I am very happy with how things went with James. I wanted to meet him before I made the arrangements and he was totally fine with that. He has a really calm, easy going demeanor which is great for my dog - she’s a super hyper puppy. He was really flexible with me and able to accommodate my changing schedule, and I just felt that my dog was safe and happy with him. Thumbs up!”
About: We became dog owner when a 8 weeks gold golden retriever joined our lives, and we quickly learned how to become a responsible dog parents. After her passing in 2021, we realized life is too short to live without a furry family member. So we brought a golden doodle puppy, Kuli, to join our lives. We are looking to help and support other 4 legs friends. Because we are either take care of all pups together or rotate, we never left them alone without human monitoring for even a single minute to make sure they are safe and have company. We currently take Kuli out for walk 3-4 times a day (weather permitted), and includes a fetching session for 30-60 min in the late afternoon. We also have web cam in our home. We provide organic carrot, sweet potato, or fruits for snacks. We have a fenced backyard, and we were dog parents for more than 10 years now. We had been to dog training classes, and know how to handle dogs in the park, hikes, and other social situation. We know that dogs need enough exercise, not just walking.
“Highly recommend! Michael, his wife, and their pup Kirby are warm and welcoming. Little Bear struggles with separation anxiety and fortunately, he adjusted quickly to their home. Likely because of the good vibes, chill environment, sweet pet parents and a level of understanding and flexibility that is much appreciated. Huge yard and conveniently located. Great sitter!!”
“Andy took such good care of Korra. Korra had fun playing with Milo, going for walk and even got pan fried beef for lunch! Now that's more than most of us get for our lunch 😀. Andy also shared lots of pictures and videos during the day. We will definitely book Andy for future daycare and boarding needs.”
“Zhenting took great care of Jojo. I can tell Jojo had a great time because he couldn’t wait and just ran to the door directly when we dropped him off on the second day. Zhengting also shared lots of update which we really appreciated. I would highly recommend her services to anyone!”
“Coutney is great!!! She is so nice and generous with our doggy, and knows the different needs of the dogs. I have left many times Fermin with her and he is very happy!!”
“Avantika and her husband were AMAZING with Splash! You can tell they really love doggos and want your dog to have the most fun when with them: whether it’s treats, walks, or cuddling on the couch and watching TV. My dog, Splash, really took to them and got comfortable quick! We’ll definitely be booking with them again!”
About: I have years of experience with animals from fostering, pet sitting, and owning my own pets! I also have done years of volunteering in different shelters. My experience goes far beyond cats and dogs extending to reptiles, birds, small animals you name it. I can handle animals of all temperaments and quirky personalities and have experience with shy and anxious pets. I have a lot of experience with both senior pets and puppies/kittens! I also know CPR, can administer injections, and first aid 😁 I am currently a student with a very flexible schedule and attend classes from 8:30am-12pm If I am in school someone is always home with your pets as I live with my family and they help me out a lot we love your pets like our own 😊 My routine really depends on owners instructions but I will adjust if I need to make it compatible to my lifestyle such as feeding and bathroom times!
About: Having raised my own puppy and dogsat for friends with anxious pups, I'm well versed in how to provide for a pup's full time needs. I can also provide puppy training in house manners (for example: waiting patiently to be fed, waiting at doors, simple commands). My care and attention to my own puppy, Chef, is full time and I am super excited to share that with your pup. We can go on excursions or hang around the house or play fetch at the dogpark. Whatever your pup is up for. I have a fenced yard and a friendly pup for your pup(s) to play with! And if your pup doesn't want company for whatever reason, I have gates and crates to make sure they are safe and happy in their own space. Feel free to request photos/videos and check in anytime for updates.
“Anna and Conrad took great care of Teddy for the day and was able to accommodate our last minute request for booking and changes. Our guy is a little shy around other dogs so they were extra patient and caring to ensure he was okay and even allowed us to meet before our daycare so the dogs can get exposure. We also have a special diet and due to a recent illness and they were able to continue with our feeding instructions (even letting us know how much he consumed in the meal). I would be more than happy to drop off our dog for another session with them. Thank you Anna, Conrad, Mochi, and Olive!”
About: I have an extremely flexible schedule (available during “work hours”/ weekdays). I grew up with small dogs and currently have a Doberman now. So I have experience caring for both large and small breeds. Since my Doberman is a working breed, we’ve attended many training classes over the last 3 years. My doberman is extremely friendly and he gets along with all other dogs. He can be energetic outside but also super chill and calm at home. When you book any services with me, you can expect fast communication and lots of updates with pictures and videos! I can’t wait to meet your furbabies! Majority of the time I’ll be doing work on my laptop remotely on a flexible schedule. I sill have plenty of time to bring your pups on walks. I wfh all weekdays so I will be able yo watch your dog and let them out every 2-4 hours. My bf also wfh so there will be a second pair of eyes to ensure the pups safety!
About: I live with two dogs of my own as part of a full multi-pet household, so daily care isn't new to me — it's routine. I have specific experience with senior dogs, including the extra patience and attentiveness that comes with mobility issues, changes in appetite, and adjusted exercise needs. I'm comfortable administering medications — pills, liquids, or topicals — and keep careful notes on dosing and timing so nothing gets missed. My apartment includes an oversized outdoor patio for fresh air and relaxing evenings, and our community also has a dog run that's always accessible for exercise and playtime. Whether your dog is a high-energy pup or a slower-moving senior, I adjust my pace and attention to what they actually need. Pet care is my full-time focus, because I don't work outside the home, my schedule is wide open — which means I can offer walks and drop-in visits at the times that actually fit your pet's routine, not squeezed into a narrow morning-or-evening window like many sitters. Mornings are typically free for early walks or first visits of the day. I have consistent availability through the afternoon for midday drop-ins, potty breaks, or a second walk if your dog needs it. And I'm just as available in the evenings for a final walk or check-in before you're home. Whether your pet needs one visit a day or several spread throughout, I have the flexibility to actually be there when it counts. Safety and trust start with creating a calm, structured environment where pets can settle in and feel at home. My apartment is a full-time, attentive household — with two dogs and several cats of my own, pets who stay or visit here are never left alone for long stretches, and routines (feeding, medication, walks) are followed closely and consistently. I keep a close eye on interactions between visiting pets and my own animals to make sure everyone is comfortable, and I'm attentive to signs of stress so I can adjust the environment as needed — whether that means quiet separate space or supervised introductions. Outdoor time is always supervised, whether that's the patio, a walk, or the community dog run, and I take care to secure doors, gates, and any potential hazards throughout the home. Your pet's safety and comfort are treated with the same level of care as my own.

“Mario was outstanding! His communication was excellent, and he went above and beyond to help me out with walking my dogs on a stressful day of moving. I highly recommend him.”
“We had a family emergency last week and we’re so grateful that Itchel was able to walk Sable with only a few hours notice. She was so friendly and responsive, definitely going to have more walks :)”
“Patrycja is truly a one-in-a-million person. She is professional, kind, and has a genuine love for animals. I feel incredibly lucky to have met her, and my dog absolutely adores her. I highly recommend her for any of your animal needs — you would be lucky to have her caring for your pets.”
“Our dogs love Cheng! He is very kind and attentive with their needs, responsive and easy to communicate with, and shares lots of photos when he takes them out on beautiful walks around the neighborhood. I feel at ease when Cheng takes care of my dogs and look forward to using him again for my future dog walking needs.”
“Jas is top notch of a dog walker and has set the standards pretty high. It’ll be challenging to find another dog walker of his caliber. More importantly, Chomsky enjoys the walks with him.”
“Great dog walking experience with Di! He is reliable, caring, and always on time. My dog comes back happy and well-exercised every walk. I feel totally comfortable knowing my dog is in great hands.”
“Rachel was extremely patience with my grumpy little old girl and I cannot thank her enough. She took extra time to make sure my dog was comfortable with her. She is communicative with me the whole time. I trust Rachel completely in taking care of my dog and can't recommend her enough. We are so glad that we found you Rachel!”
About: I've been around animals for as long as I can remember, starting with Ginger, my family's German shepherd and husky mix, and four cats growing up. I later spent about two years volunteering at my local SPCA, working hands-on with dogs of every size and temperament, from bouncy puppies to nervous rescues. I've also had cats of my own as an adult, including two rescues, and fostered kittens before I started traveling. Since then I've cared for pets through farm stays and housesits across Costa Rica, Panama, Spain, and Canada — dogs, cats, chickens, goats, even an adult pet rat. I'm comfortable administering medication, working with anxious or senior animals, and managing multi-pet households. I'm calm, attentive, and treat every home and animal I look after like my own. I'm currently transitioning to the San Mateo County area and building my schedule around pet care full-time, so I have plenty of flexibility for house sits, and daily visits, including extended or last-minute stays. I don't currently have a conflicting 9-to-5, which means I can commit fully to a pet's normal routine for the length of a booking rather than fitting care in around other work. Since I focus on house sitting, I stay at your home rather than asking your pet to adjust to a new environment. I follow feeding, medication, and walking routines exactly as instructed, keep the house clean and secure, and send regular photo updates so you can relax while you're away. I don't bring other pets into the home, so your animal gets my full attention for the whole stay.

About: Pets have become an important part of my adult life and understand their important place in a family. As a pet parent myself, I have been able to apply my experiences with Rover including medical care. I’m very active and enjoy spending time outside as much as possible. My current employment situation allows for flexibility with my schedule. In addition I am located centrally, allowing me to have access to both SF and the peninsula area. Home sittings and drop ins have been some of the things I have done for friends and their pets. For both home sitting and drop ins I have communicated with the pet parent ahead of time. Whether I have been trusted with a spare key or a door code, I respect the home as if it was a family’s member.
About: My husband and I have been our friends and family's designated cat and dog sitter for years. We understand the unique personality of each pet and do our best to provide the best care tailored to your furry baby. We can accomodate pick up time and drop off time between: 8am - 11:30 pm. My husband works from home and I works from home half of the time so we have plenty of time to care for your baby. We usually take two -three walks per day. We can add in more walks if your baby needs more potty breaks. The dogs/cats have free roam of our two bedrooms apt so they can hang out/play with us. We live in an apt building with a dog park right around the corner. We do not have pets at home and are only taking in one dog (with the exception of dogs from the same household) at a time so that we can give your pup the attention he/she needs. P.s. 我可以说中文
About: I've taken care of dogs since I was little. I've cared for my own throughout the years as well as walked, house sat, and cared for many others' dogs! My work schedule is different every week but I get mine typically a month ahead of time and can plan accordingly. I'm open to scheduling same day or ahead of time if time allows. As long as care instructions are provided, I will happily follow what is needed for your pet. I believe communication and safety is most important!
About: I’ve taken care of my cousin’s dog for a year. I am able to walk them, feed them, comfort them, and play with them. I love dogs. They have a special place in my heart. I am currently not working, so I am very flexible. I am able to work part time or full time. I can do truly how much ever time you need in the weekdays. I won’t be available on weekends. I live in an apartment. I am open to pet sitting in my own home as well. I live in a very animal safe and family oriented community. I live right in front of a park as well.
About: I am new to the Foster City area coming from Texas. I have had many years of experience taking care of animals. I worked as a veterinary technician for 3 years in Austin, TX and prior to that I have worked with boarding facilities, daycares and groomers. I am skilled in the basics of grooming- bath, hair brushing/detangling, teeth brushing, nails, ear cleaning. I love to go for walks and be outside. I have 3 dogs myself so I am accustomed to walking multiple times a day. I'm also very skilled at cuddling on the couch, for those pets who are less active and looking for a drop in visit. I'm very comfortable around any animals, big or small. I have a lot of experience with senior pets - giving meds, lifting/helping them move around, cleaning up after messes. My main goal is to ensure that your pet is as happy and comfortable as they can be while you are away! I am currently taking a break from the vet care field but I am still looking to enrich my free time and help other's pets live their best lives! My pets are my first priority in the household. I spoil them in anyway that I can with food, treats, adventures and unconditional love. My pets are treated as family and I will always treat your pet with the same level of care and love.
About: Since I was 7 years old, I grew up with dogs and they have become my very best friends. About 10 years ago, our senior dog, Biggie, guided me to Rover. He loved to meet new friends. Being with us for 18 years, Biggie knew it was his time to say good-bye and crossed the Rainbow Bridge. His legacy of looking at the world through love has taught me many great lessons! Same goes for all the Dogs I've crossed paths with! The connections and the special bonds that I made with my Rover dog buddies over the years have been one of the most amazing experiences! *I understand 1000% about the feeling of leaving your dog when you have to go away or when he/she is home alone for long periods of time. Trust me that I've been through it too and it was never easy for me. That is why I want you to feel at ease and confident that you can put your trust in me. Drop-in & dog walking: Please reach out to me regarding dates so I can share my schedule for that time. Your doggy will never be left home alone when staying with us! Either me or my husband will be home if one of us has to go out. Or, if your dog enjoys car rides he/she is welcome to join depending on where we are going and factoring weather conditions. I am very open minded, communicative, honest, trustworthy, and head over heels for animals. You will receive pictures and updates everyday during your doggie’s stay! I also have over 35 years of experience and knowledge caring for senior dogs, dogs w/ special needs, and puppies. I am committed to going above and beyond with undivided attention, safety, unconditional love & respect. I am responsible with following owner’s exact instructions- walk, feed, play, what to be mindful of, where they like to be pet, fears…what makes them feel safe, comfortable and happy. (Boarding/Daycare) My priority when caring for your puppy is creating a safe, comfortable, and happy space for everyone who walks through my door. My home is love and happiness…and clean! We have a beautiful, safe and private enclosed backyard for sunbathing. Our new neighborhood is open, clean, grassy, and safe when walking dogs! We also love when dogs sleep on our bed and they are always welcome on furniture. If you prefer they sleep in a crate, their own bed or separate, that’s fine too.
About: I have 3+ years of hands-on experience caring for my two cats, and I regularly look after a friend’s Shiba Inu for about a month each year. I’m a native Mandarin Chinese speaker and fluent in English. 欢迎全程使用中文沟通，包括见面了解、照护说明和每次服务后的照片与情况更新。 I’m comfortable with feeding, refreshing water, cleaning litter boxes, walks, playtime, and following detailed care routines. Living with a shy cat has taught me to be patient, read pets’ body language, and let them approach at their own pace. I pay close attention to changes in appetite, energy, behavior, and litter box habits. I’ll also provide clear photo updates so you can feel confident that your pet is safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I currently have a flexible schedule and can provide drop-in visits and dog walks on weekdays and weekends, including mornings, afternoons, and evenings. I limit my daily bookings so I can arrive on time, follow each pet’s routine carefully, and give every pet my full attention. I keep my Rover calendar updated and appreciate at least one day’s notice from new clients so we have time to confirm care instructions and arrange a Meet & Greet when needed. I care for pets in the comfort of their own home and follow each owner’s instructions closely. Before the first booking, I prefer a Meet & Greet to review feeding, water, litter boxes, walking routines, home access, emergency contacts, and any health or behavioral needs. During every visit, I make sure doors and gates are secure, keep dogs leashed outdoors, avoid interactions with unfamiliar animals, and respect your home. I also send photos and detailed updates about your pet’s food, water, bathroom habits, energy, and behavior.

“You won’t find better dog care than Katie and Jason! Attentive, caring and loving- they went above and beyond with walks, playtime and snuggles. Benji had a wonderful time staycationing with them! Super great communication before and during stay, too! Our pooches will be back. Can’t recommend more highly. 🩷”
“Evie watched our dog Willow for a little over a week while we were on vacation. From the regular updates we got, I can tell that she was giving so much care and attention to Willow, and that Willow loved hanging out with her as well! We really appreciate the peace of mind especially as this is the longest we’ve left our dog with a sitter on rover. We would definitely use her services again.”
“Jennifer is a sweet cat caretaker. She had multiple rooms for my cat to get comfortable in, since it took my cat a little while to come out of her shell. I loved seeing the videos of Jennifer playing with my cat.”
“I can’t say enough great things about Jas! He was able to care for our dog Murphy last minute. He was very responsive, sent updates and pictures throughout our whole trip. The pictures of Murphy showed how relaxed and happy he was! Pretty sure Murph came back smelling better 😆 We will definitely be using Jas again.”
“Joy was awesome with my dog (Banana). She followed all provided instructions and lots of updates and photos throughout the stay. She was extra flexible with my schedule. I will definitely reach out to Joy when we need a sitter next!”
“Zicheng took great care of my dog while we were out of town. He sent lots of photos and video updates. My dog is normally very nervous around new people, but had a great time, especially playing with Kennedy!”
“Rocky came back calm and we can tell he gets treated very well with Zhenting's family. So glad we found her as we love she has an enclosed backyard space and she is very attentive. We love seeing how Rocky is doing throughout his stay with all the photos she sends!”
About: I have an extremely flexible schedule (available during “work hours”/ weekdays). I grew up with small dogs and currently have a Doberman now. So I have experience caring for both large and small breeds. Since my Doberman is a working breed, we’ve attended many training classes over the last 3 years. My doberman is extremely friendly and he gets along with all other dogs. He can be energetic outside but also super chill and calm at home. When you book any services with me, you can expect fast communication and lots of updates with pictures and videos! I can’t wait to meet your furbabies! Majority of the time I’ll be doing work on my laptop remotely on a flexible schedule. I sill have plenty of time to bring your pups on walks. I wfh all weekdays so I will be able yo watch your dog and let them out every 2-4 hours. My bf also wfh so there will be a second pair of eyes to ensure the pups safety!
“We love Akosua! This was our first time leaving our old pittie-boxer mix, Ethel, with Akosua after another Rover flaked on us a week before we needed pet care. Akosua was willing to quickly schedule a meet-and-greet with us and take Ethel on short notice, and we can't say enough how great she was! Akosua is so calm and sweet (perfect for our baby!), and is clearly very knowledgeable about and comfortable with caring for all types of dogs. She asked so many great questions that nobody has ever asked before, was great with communication and providing updates with photos, and even helped Ethel practice her training in our absence. Ethel was very calm and relaxed when she came home, which has never happened with a sitter before -- she's previously been wound-up and anxious for a few hours after getting home. We will definitely be reaching out again to Akosua in the future!”
“Andy and his family took really good care of our dog. He sent us photos throughout the stay and even took our dog to relax outside at a coffee shop. I highly recommend Andy as a sitter.”
“This was Yogi’s first time away from home, and Cynthia made sure he was well cared for. She sent us lots of updates (which we requested) and Yogi looked so happy the whole time. We weren’t sure how he’d do since we only adopted him a few months ago, but he seemed to have such a great time! Would book again!”
“Andy took good care of Coco over the weekend! He took him on long scenic walks and made sure he was comfortable in his home. His dogs Milo and Bodie were great emotional support for Coco who struggles with separation anxiety.”
About: I’m a caring, responsible dog lover who treats every pet like part of the family. I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I take the time to make them feel comfortable, safe, and loved. What sets me apart is the personal attention I give each dog. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine, whether that means plenty of playtime and walks, extra patience with a shy dog, or a calm and comfortable environment for a senior pet. I’m also comfortable providing the patience and consistency that young dogs and puppies need as they learn good habits and adjust to new surroundings. My goal is simple: for your dog to feel happy, cared for, and at home while you’re away-and for you to have peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. I work outside the home, but I'm intentional about making pet care a priority in my daily routine. I plan my schedule around the pets in my care to make sure they receive regular meals, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and plenty of love and attention. I understand how important consistency is for pets, so I'll follow their normal routine as closely as possible. Before booking, I'm happy to discuss your pet's specific needs and make sure my schedule is a good fit for them. When I'm home, your pet gets plenty of companionhsip, attention, and care in a calm, comfortable enviornment. Your pet will be treated like part of the family and receive plenty of love, attention, and individual care. I'll follow your pet's normal routine as closely as possible, including meals, walks, playtime, potty breaks, medications if needed, and plenty of companionship. For dogs, a typical day includes walks, outdoor time, play, and lots of attention and affection. For cats, I'll provide feeding, fresh water, litter-box care, playtime and companionship while also respecting their need for quiet time and personal space. I provide a calm, comfortable home environment where pets can relax and feel safe. I'll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you know how your pet is doing while you're away. Every pet is different, so I'm happy to follow your instructions and adjust their care to their individual personality, routine, and needs.
“I needed someone to watch Yami during my wedding weekend, and Ming-Ching was the best choice. We did a meet and greet before booking, and what stood out to me was Ming-Ching’s quick responses when organizing the date and questions she asked about Yami. Last weekend, she shared so many updates that I never had to worry about how Yami was doing. This definitely allowed me to be fully present on my wedding day, and I’m so grateful Yami had so much fun, too!”
“Ollie had the most incredible time with Leeeun and her family. She sent many lovely photos and updates, and helped us buy additional treats when we ran out. They took Ollie on so many fun adventures throughout the weekend. She goes above and beyond, and we highly recommend her!”
“Communicative and I really enjoyed seeing pictures of our pup during her stay! Stella I'm sure enjoyed all the play time and walks~ Thank you! Would love for her to stay again!”
“Surya took excellent care of my goldendoodle for two different back-to-back visits. He sent me regular updates and photos, and he was also super flexible on pick up and dropoff times, especially when we had to come after midnight one time due to a flight delay. Thank you, Surya! Highly recommend him!”
