“She was absolutely sweet and send me a lot of pics and updates so we could fully enjoy our trip with peace of mind. In pictures, my dog looked so relaxed and I could tell she was taking a great care of my dog. Thank you!”
“We absolutely loved Shaira! She was able to help us with a last-minute booking, which we were incredibly grateful for. From the start, she was kind, attentive, and communicative. She took great care of Bibi, took her on walks, and kept us updated on how she was doing. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing Bibi was in such good hands. We could tell Bibi was well loved and cared for during her stay. We are so happy we found Shaira and would absolutely trust her with Bibi again in the future. Highly recommend! ❤️🐾”
“We had a great experience with Lily! She provided regular photos and updates throughout Bean’s stay, which gave us peace of mind. Bean is a high-energy dog, and Lily made sure she got plenty of exercise with regular walks and playtime with her dog, Tofu. Lily was very easy to work with, and we’d be happy to have Bean stay with her again.”
“Nina and Tony were absolutely incredible with our dog, Rain. From the moment we left for our trip, they made us feel completely at ease. They went above and beyond in every way possible, especially with their communication. We received frequent updates, thoughtful messages, and so many pictures and videos that we never had to wonder how Rain was doing. Finding someone you trust with your dog is difficult, but Nina and Tony exceeded every expectation we had. We came home to a happy pup! We would trust Nina and Tony with Rain again without a second thought. They are simply the best. Thank you soooooooooo much!”
“My 5-month-old puppy had a fantastic time during her stay. She made a lot of puppy friends, and Marina & Anwar treated her with excellent care, treating her like one of their own. As it was our first time leaving our puppy, they made us feel at ease by consistently sharing pictures and videos. I plan on booking with them again and would suggest their services to others.”
“Jay is a kind and wonderful dog boarder. Our cattledog, Arrow, was so well taken care of and was so relaxed during his stay with Jay. We got several timely updates with pictures and Arrow looked perfectly content in the new environment. I would highly recommend Jay and will be using his service again.”
“Selena took the time to know my dog before our appointment. She was also accommodating to our plan changes and our specific needs. My dog looked happy under her care and had a great time!”
“Thanks for taking excellent care of my dog, Friday while he was recovering from a leg injury. I loved all the pictures and updates. You were great at communicating and following all my extensive instructions 😅 and also were super flexible and helpful during a stressful period. You also really cared about my dog's well being, taking him on sniffing walks and car rides and playing games with him to keep him entertained. I would 100% recommend you both to other dog parents! Thank you!”
“Marsha is wonderful. She truly loves dogs and is extremely flexible in terms of pick up and drop off. She boards other dogs so my dog got valuable social time. Also, I only believes she boards small dogs so all the interactions with my smaller sized dog was with other appropriate small dogs. It was perfect to go away and not worry about my fur baby.”
“Thank you for a stress-free stay again! Nancy sends us photos and lets us know how our pup settles in the first few days and then periodically throughout the stay (this last stay was 2 weeks). Updates and excellent communication! Our pup loves going to their house and runs up the stairs and comes home happy and tired.”
“Selena was amazing with Mathilde! Mathilde almost always has anxiety and can't eat much during her first couple of boarding days but with Selena she ate every day and was calm and had fun.”
“Here’s a clear, warm, and natural English translation for you: ⸻ Hong helped take care of Audi, and that’s why we were able to enjoy such a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday. She’s truly the most attentive, thoughtful, and loving dog sitter I’ve ever met. Our Audi had a blast at their home every single day — plus he got beautiful photos taken, and even had toys to play with. My husband kept saying that from the photos, it looked like Audi didn’t even want to come home… like he had become someone else’s dog! 😂 We felt completely at ease the whole time. It was nothing like the time we sent him to another sitter, who watched five dogs at once. Our poor white fluff came back dirty all over, and when I went to pick him up he wouldn’t stop “complaining” at me. Even after we got home, he was still mad. I’m pretty sure he was telling me, “Why did you send me there? I’m so upset, don’t ever send me back!” 🤣 But this time was totally different. When I picked him up, he looked happy and relaxed, and he didn’t scold me at all when we got home. I even tease him sometimes by saying, “We’re going to see Mama Vicky!” and he immediately starts wagging his tail. That’s how much he loves her.”
“Pratima was amazing with Chester! She accommodated us on short notice, was prompt with all her responses, provided us with plenty of pictures and even flexible when we wanted to extend Chester's stay. I can tell Chester had a great time with Pratima and her whole family, Chester even went back to hug her as we were picking him up! We will absolutely be bringing Chester back again!!”
“Dana really took a very good care of our pet, Dasher. Our original sitter canceled last minute and I found Dana on the Rover app. She made sure Dasher felt at home, safe, loved, and cared. She was also very responsive to messages. She shared pictures of Dasher with us while we were away. I could see Dasher got really attached to Dana and was constantly looking for her while we were trying to bring him back. Recommended 100%.”
About: I provide caring and responsible pet sitting with a strong focus on making pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I treat every pet like my own and always pay attention to their individual needs and routines. What sets me apart is my ability to communicate in English, Chinese, and Japanese, which helps me better understand and support pet owners from different backgrounds. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel at ease while you’re away. I am patient, gentle, and attentive, especially with pets who may be shy or need extra time to adjust. My goal is to create a calm and stress-free environment for both pets and owners. I work from home and spend most of my time at home, so I can give pets plenty of attention and care throughout the day. My home is pet-friendly and calm, and I do not have children, which helps create a quiet and safe environment. I rarely go out except for short grocery trips on weekends, so pets are never left alone for long periods. I provide attentive and reliable pet care both in my home and at clients’ homes. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding, walks, and special instructions. Since I work from home, pets in my care receive plenty of supervision, attention, and companionship throughout the day. I always ensure a safe, clean, and comfortable environment and keep owners updated regularly.
“Judi was absolutely incredible. She's extremely knowledgeable about dog behaviors and was so helpful with training Latte, as well as attentive and kind throughout Lattes stay. Judi sent lots of updates, videos and pictures and Latte definitely had a blast”
“Alexandra was so great watching my Kali girl. She was prompt in response in booking, and sent plenty of photos/videos through the trip. I will definitely use her again!”

I love to spend time with all types of pets, and have been taking care of pets for 4 total years. Your pet will have a great, comfortable, and fun stay with me!

I am able to care for pets utilizing the experience that I have cultivated with my own dog. I regularly walk and feed a miniature dog and can supervise another pet and take them on bathroom breaks. Throughout the day, I can care for another pet within the house and also allow them to stay within the backyard. I could send updates and fulfill requests of owners to provide fresh water, treats, or preparing meals.

“Tiana took such great care of my 2 kittens! I would definitely rebook. She is very communicative, responsive, and sent me many pictures, videos, and updates throughout their stay with her. I felt confident and comfortable knowing that my kitties were in a safe and happy place! Thank you Tiana!”
“Thomas was an excellent sitter. He followed my cat’s routine very precisely and clearly put a lot of care into every visit. His communication was outstanding, consistent updates, thoughtful notes, and photos that made me feel completely at ease while I was away. He truly went above and beyond, spending extra time to make sure my cat was comfortable and engaged. I felt very safe leaving my pet in his care and would absolutely book him again. Really 10/10 Thaank you❤️❤️❤️🙏”
About: I've had over 5 years of hands-on cat ownership experience, currently caring for my own Abyssinian cat — an active, high-energy breed that's taught me a lot about keeping curious cats stimulated and safe. I've also been involved in long-term stray cat rescue, which has given me experience with cats that are scared, injured, or need extra patience to trust a new person. I'm comfortable handling health issues — I've dealt with cat illnesses before, including taking my cat to the emergency vet when needed, so I stay calm and know when a situation requires professional attention. I'm also experienced with routine care like nail trimming, teeth brushing, and coat brushing — tasks that stress out a lot of cats, but I can handle them gently and without drama. I treat every cat in my care with the same patience and attention I give my own.
“Ziying was a wonderful cat sitter for our drop-in visits. She is very kind, caring, and easy to communicate with. She kept me updated before visit and shared lots of photos and videos, which I really appreciated. My cats were well taken care of, and I felt completely at ease. I would definitely book Ziying again in the future and highly recommend her.”
“Katelyn was truly amazing! She was fantastic at taking care of our kitties while we were away. Loved the detailed summary & pics we received after each check in. Would definitely recommend her & use her services in the future. She’s a great photographer too.”
“I’ve been working with Jill for a while now. Jill is very easy to work with. I fully trust her and I know that my cat feels loved when I’m away. And last but not least, she takes the cutest pictures of my cat! I definitely recommend her!!”
“We have had Aurora watch our cats multiple times. She is very thorough and attentive and provides updates on how they are doing. Highly recommend her if you want peace of mind while you are away.”
“Siqin was a fantastic sitter. Siqin was very responsible and took the time to come for a meet-and-greet before the visit, which gave us great peace of mind. We are very grateful for Siqin's excellent care and would highly recommend Siqin.”
“Kathleen was awesome with our 3 kitties, she provided great care and attention even to our cat you needed daily vitamins. We are so happy to have worked with Kathleen and will rebook with her in the future!”
“Kruti was great! It was my first time using Rover and she helped walk me through the process very patiently and professionally. She was also patient with my kitty, taking the time to get to befriend her until she was comfortable enough to play which is terrific. The last day of her drop-ins was during an intense heat wave and Kruti put the fan on to help keep things cool for Oz - overall really kind and thoughtful. Would absolutely rebook!”
About: I understand that cats need patience and respect for their space, not just attention on demand. I take time to learn each cat’s personality, notice small changes in mood or behavior, and make sure they feel safe and comfortable rather than forcing interaction.
“My plans changed last minute and I was so glad I was able to book with Paige! She was super communicative, respectful, and patient. Would definitely book with her again!”
About: I have trained and cared for my own dogs, both small and large breeds, all of my life. As a volunteer at animal shelters here in the Bay Area and in Austin, I have learned to manage and adapt to varied—and sometimes difficult—dog personalities, temperaments, and needs. I am also very comfortable with large animals, having owned and trained my own horses for decades. As a retired journalist and journalism professor, I bring trustworthiness, reliability, and excellent communication to animal care. I can provide walks, engaging playtime, comfort for anxious animals, and administration of simple medications. Please note: While I am an expert animal caretaker, I am new to the Rover platform. I am currently offering introductory rates for a limited time while I build my local profile.I I work from home as a writer/reasercher on my own flexible schedule. i can accommodate your and your pets' schedules on weekdays as well as weekends. I provide walks as needed, playtime, comforting if he or she is anxious, simple medicstions and wound-dressing, and and of course feeding and watering on their schedule.
“Jennifer did a wonderful job caring for my cats. She is very reliable, follows instructions carefully, and always pays close attention to their individual needs. One of my cats is very shy and cautious around people, and Jennifer was incredibly compassionate and patient with her, respecting her boundaries while helping her feel safe and comfortable. It gave me great peace of mind knowing my cats were in such caring and capable hands. I highly recommend Jennifer to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter.”
“Jessica is a fantastic sitter! She took great care of our cat during the holiday break, even on bad weather days. I loved the photo updates and felt completely at ease knowing our cat was in such capable hands. Our cat clearly bonded with her and will miss her. She also took care of the mails, moved the trash bins and made sure that the doors were locked. Thanks Jessica!”
“Kaitlyn was a great cat sitter! She stayed with our two cats for several days without any issues. She kept our cats happy and sent pictures each day. Will definitely book with her again!”

“Rose was excellent! Super flexible and took good care of my 7 month old puppy. We did a meet and greet prior to her babysitting and when I brought my puppy back for sitting, he was super excited to see her! It looked like he had a blast from day care & when he came home he was so worn out lol. I’m very happy she was kind to him and kept him stimulated and entertained! Would definitely book again”

About: I’ve never known a life without pets present. I grew up side-by-side with my parents’ first “baby”—a golden retriever puppy born just a few months before me—and my love for animals only grew from there. As a teen, I volunteered at local rescues, fostered animals throughout undergrad, adopted a sweet senior dog of my own, and later welcomed home my first cat: a scrappy little shelter kitten labeled “on clearance.” (Yes, really.) I’ve cared for pets of all ages, personalities, and energy levels—from zoomies-on-command puppies to nap-loving seniors. I know every animal has their own quirks, and I tailor my care to match what makes your pet feel happiest, safest, and most at ease. As a lifelong pet parent myself, I know how nerve-wracking it can be to find someone you trust. That’s why I go out of my way to make the experience feel seamless and stress-free—for both you and your pet. I’ll never treat your booking like a quick task; I genuinely love spending time with animals and want them to feel just as comfortable with me as they do with you. Expect plenty of updates, photos, and thoughtful notes after each visit. Whether your dog needs a patient buddy, a walking partner, or just someone to sit and keep them company—I’ll be there with warmth, reliability, and care you can count on. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine—I work remotely/part time with a flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets the attention, exercise, and snuggles they need throughout the day. Whether it's morning walks, midday potty breaks, or evening playtime, I’m able to build my day around your pet’s needs to keep them happy and relaxed while you're away for the weekend or at the office. Whether I'm caring for pets in my home or yours, their comfort and safety are always my top priority. I take time to fully get to know you and your pet’s preferences, routines, and personalities to ensure I can make their care feel as secure and stress-free as possible. I am thorough with going over and confirming all care instructions your pets need, and prioritize safety and comfort above all else. I always double-check doors (locks, keys, codes, alarms, gates), food and water levels, all care instructions for both animals and home, preferred levels of communication & updates, etc—because trust is built in the little details. I will fully accommodate any special instructions and communication preferences requested by you, as I know how nerve wracking it can be to find a care provider you trust to care not just for your furry family member, but with your residence as well! Please rest comfortably knowing it is my utmost priority to ensure your loved one is in competent, caring, trustworthy hands. _______ As a random bonus — for my Chinese clients, I am 100% fluent in Mandarin (國語/普通話). However, I am an ABC, so I would prefer English especially for written communication, but otherwise, I hope my bilingual skills make the process of finding a sitter you trust and are comfortable with even easier.
About: I’ve been fostering dogs with weight problems. I successfully managed their weight through strict diet and regular walks. I follow proper schedule for playtime and other activities so that the pets do their daily exercise.

I am starting this new chapter of my life to help busy working parents keep their pets happy, healthy, and exercised. I have a fully secured fenced yard for play time and a foster rescue dog as a friendly companion. Feeding and playtime will be managed separately.
About: I have 1 year of experience caring for dogs and cats, providing feeding, walks, and playtime, ensuring their well-being and affection at all times 🐶🐕 My schedule is flexible, but I follow a calm and simple routine to help your dog feel comfortable.

Nicole walked Zoey wI highly recommend Nicole if you want to know your dog will be well taken care of.”

“Nancy is simply amazing — truly a beautiful soul. While we were away for three weeks, she took exceptional care of our German Shepherd and gave us complete peace of mind. She consistently went above and beyond, and even took the time to help my mother with our elderly dog as well. We feel incredibly fortunate and blessed to have found Nancy. I sincerely appreciate everything she has done for our family and cannot thank her enough. Highly recommended.”
About: I have taken care of friend's and dogs of significant others over the past two decades. I have the most experience with small and big dogs. It doesn't seem like my friends have had many medium-sized dogs. From leisurely sniffer walks to 10 mile runs, I cover a wide range of doggie needs. From homebody to outdoor enthusiast, I have expreience in meeting the needs of dogs at various energy levels. I have time to do morning, noon and evening care for both cats and dogs. From walks, runs and play time for dogs to playtime, movie time and cuddles for cats. I am a lover of cooking so no peculiar food preparation needs of your pet is too peculiar. I'm up for a challenge! I currently do not offer boarding in my home but am comfortable to providing care or home stays if needed. I have done live-in care for friends who have dogs and cats and am always respectful of the space. My goal is to provide care as similar as possible to what the owners provide on a normal basis, to help the cat or dog feel the most comfortable while their humans are away.
About: Since I was young, I have always loved dogs and cats. My Dad always referred to our house as Noah’s Ark because we always had so many animals. I received this love for animals from my mother. She had a gift for raising animals for very long periods of time and loved them like they were her children. She called them her fur babies and I have since followed in her foot steps. I love dogs that play fetch and cats, along with their attitude and personality. We spend time walking, playing with and laying around with our family dogs - we have three! Fury is our Chihuahua who loves to sleep all day and cuddle. Bo, our Rottie mix who enjoys walks and playing with other dogs. And our playful pup Gus, who loves to eat! Our sons also love dogs and enjoy having guest dogs around! We love animals and will treat yours as we do ours, as part of the family. My wife works from home and has time to care for and play with your fur babies! She will feed them, take them for walks and gives your dog(s) free reign of the house and yard. I have a locked and fenced atrium and backyard … and three wonderful dogs to keep them company! When it’s warm, the back slider is left open for the dogs to freely go in and out as they please. There is plenty of room for them to run around out back, front and side. They sleep whenever they’re most comfortable and can hang out on the couch or wherever they chose. As mentioned earlier, they very quickly become a part of our extended family! Since I work from home, I have time to care for, and play with your pets! We can follow the same routine they have at home. We have a fenced atrium and backyard as well as three active dogs to keep your fur babies busy! They have free reign of the home and can play or rest where they’re most comfortable!
About: Hi! I’ve always been an animal lover and very understanding of animal behavior. Growing up we always had dogs and now as an adult I’m a full on cat lady with two of my own. So you can say I know how to adjust to both whether it’s a crazy puppy or a fiesty cat, I’ve never had an issue. I love my pets like they’re my kids and I hope I can show your animals the same love! I currently have my availability pretty much completely open right now. Other than taking care of my own pets, I can be available to take care of others whenever! I will work with whatever set up and routine you already have for your pet to make sure they are cared for in the best way possible.

“We had a great experience with Lily! She provided regular photos and updates throughout Bean’s stay, which gave us peace of mind. Bean is a high-energy dog, and Lily made sure she got plenty of exercise with regular walks and playtime with her dog, Tofu. Lily was very easy to work with, and we’d be happy to have Bean stay with her again.”
“Nina and Tony were absolutely incredible with our dog, Rain. From the moment we left for our trip, they made us feel completely at ease. They went above and beyond in every way possible, especially with their communication. We received frequent updates, thoughtful messages, and so many pictures and videos that we never had to wonder how Rain was doing. Finding someone you trust with your dog is difficult, but Nina and Tony exceeded every expectation we had. We came home to a happy pup! We would trust Nina and Tony with Rain again without a second thought. They are simply the best. Thank you soooooooooo much!”
“My 5-month-old puppy had a fantastic time during her stay. She made a lot of puppy friends, and Marina & Anwar treated her with excellent care, treating her like one of their own. As it was our first time leaving our puppy, they made us feel at ease by consistently sharing pictures and videos. I plan on booking with them again and would suggest their services to others.”
“Selena took the time to know my dog before our appointment. She was also accommodating to our plan changes and our specific needs. My dog looked happy under her care and had a great time!”
“Thanks for taking excellent care of my dog, Friday while he was recovering from a leg injury. I loved all the pictures and updates. You were great at communicating and following all my extensive instructions 😅 and also were super flexible and helpful during a stressful period. You also really cared about my dog's well being, taking him on sniffing walks and car rides and playing games with him to keep him entertained. I would 100% recommend you both to other dog parents! Thank you!”
“Here’s a clear, warm, and natural English translation for you: ⸻ Hong helped take care of Audi, and that’s why we were able to enjoy such a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday. She’s truly the most attentive, thoughtful, and loving dog sitter I’ve ever met. Our Audi had a blast at their home every single day — plus he got beautiful photos taken, and even had toys to play with. My husband kept saying that from the photos, it looked like Audi didn’t even want to come home… like he had become someone else’s dog! 😂 We felt completely at ease the whole time. It was nothing like the time we sent him to another sitter, who watched five dogs at once. Our poor white fluff came back dirty all over, and when I went to pick him up he wouldn’t stop “complaining” at me. Even after we got home, he was still mad. I’m pretty sure he was telling me, “Why did you send me there? I’m so upset, don’t ever send me back!” 🤣 But this time was totally different. When I picked him up, he looked happy and relaxed, and he didn’t scold me at all when we got home. I even tease him sometimes by saying, “We’re going to see Mama Vicky!” and he immediately starts wagging his tail. That’s how much he loves her.”
“Pratima was amazing with Chester! She accommodated us on short notice, was prompt with all her responses, provided us with plenty of pictures and even flexible when we wanted to extend Chester's stay. I can tell Chester had a great time with Pratima and her whole family, Chester even went back to hug her as we were picking him up! We will absolutely be bringing Chester back again!!”
“Dana really took a very good care of our pet, Dasher. Our original sitter canceled last minute and I found Dana on the Rover app. She made sure Dasher felt at home, safe, loved, and cared. She was also very responsive to messages. She shared pictures of Dasher with us while we were away. I could see Dasher got really attached to Dana and was constantly looking for her while we were trying to bring him back. Recommended 100%.”
“Judi was absolutely incredible. She's extremely knowledgeable about dog behaviors and was so helpful with training Latte, as well as attentive and kind throughout Lattes stay. Judi sent lots of updates, videos and pictures and Latte definitely had a blast”

“Time and tie again Phina has proven to be a reliable and trustworthy dog boarder, I never feel worried about leaving my precious fur baby in her capable hands. His behavior even seems to improve with each visit. We look forward to his next stay with Phina.”
“Yenju is such a terrific doggy care taker! She was so kind and patient with our dog Kip. Her communication was consistent, timely, and very honest. Furthermore- she went out of her way to listen to me explain what Kip needed to feel safe and happy while we were traveling, and she gave him healthy snacks like boiled eggs when he wouldn't eat his food! She was also punctual and very flexible when my family was coordinating pick up times. I cannot say enough nice things about Yenju and her family caring for Kip- I will definitely be booking again!! Thank you Yenju!!”
About: I have been taking care of pets basically all my life, at my grandma house we use to have a lot of animals, and she taught me the love that they need and now I want to keep sharing that love.

About: Cats are lovely and each have their own character, although they can be distant at first they end up allowing me to obey their commands. I work from home, so your pup will never be alone. They will enjoy daily walks around the lake in our friendly neighborhood. Always feed only what’s on their normal diet. I follow instructions to what is recommended for each pet, as I know many may have different needs. No extra treats or foods since some pets have allergies.
“Pallavi and Rachit were incredibly caring in looking after Zoey. They went above and beyond in taking care of her. If you're looking for someone who will truly care for your pet, going beyond just the basic needs, they are absolutely wonderful. Pallavi paid close attention to even the smallest details about my poodle. She made sure to understand Zoey’s schedule, routine, and how comfortable she is around other dogs and people. Their dog, Luna, is also very friendly and sweet. Pallavi frequently sent me updates and photos, which gave me a lot of reassurance. They spent genuine quality time with Zoey, really getting to know her. Even when Zoey had an injury, they cared for her so well and kept me updated throughout. Pallavi truly went the extra mile- gradually introducing Zoey to Luna, asking before giving her snacks, setting up a comfortable space for her in their home, and giving her so much love and attention. I couldn't recommend them enough!”
“It was a pleasure having Raya stay with Neo and Ken. The dogs hit it off right away and Ken was so good with updating us for her entire stay. I would highly recommend him and we will definitely do future boarding with him.”
“Kristal and Quinn were awesome with Maya and Evie. They continuously sent me updates and pics of the dogs and were always responsive when I had questions. I’d definitely book with them again.”
“Shruti and her husband boarded our fur baby for the first time this week. Charli (our fur baby) had an amazing time with them and the other dogs. I received daily updates and pictures from Shruti. Their place is spacious and has a great backyard. Will definitely use them again! Shruti was very professional and prepared us well for Charli’s stay. Thank you Shruti!”
