“Tracy was great! She got Yoshi to eat on the first day, which is very rare, so I know he was comfortable. She sent lots of pics and communication seamlessly. Great sitter, highly recommend and will use again!! ❤️”
“I could tell our dog had a great time with Alvin! He was incredibly understanding, attentive and sent us regular updates. He had no problem giving our dog his medicine as well. Our dog can be a handful and has a lot of energy - Alvin made sure to provide daily walks, play time and cuddles. He was also very mindful when having our dog & his dog meet and get used to each other. Our dog was well taken care of and we are so grateful :) We would definitely let our dog stay with him again. We recommend Alvin if you’re looking for someone kind, accommodating, and devoted to making your dog comfortable!”
“Love Erica so much. My dog is very much in her golden years. Erica takes such loving, attentive care of her. When I have to leave town and board my dog, I always feel reassured dropping her off here. Erica is great about communicating and my girl always comes back happy and well cared for after her stay.”
“Yuko did her best to make sure Clementine was loved when she was feeling a little homesick. Clementine came back to us all nice and tuckered out after a few days stay! It's nice that Yuko has other dogs around so that it's always play time for the dogs.”
“I'm so blessed that Stephen takes good care of my dog and I have no worry leaving him with him. My dog gets so excited as we drive closer to his house as it is his own.”
“Kelly took great care of Lucky. He seemed very happy after his time with her and even as we were getting back in the car he went to the end of his leash to get one more look before she left. Highly recommend Kelly!”
“Michael was very easy going and it’s apparent that he loves caring for the dogs. ZuZu has a great stay at his place. He took walks every day with ZuZu and played with her. I’m confident that we will use his care again in the future.”
“This was Rosie’s second time spending the weekend with Karla, and she was excited and happy when we pulled up and went easily into the yard with Karla. Rosie was tired and happy when I picked her up. Karla gave her medication while we were gone and sent pictures and updates. We will continue to use Karla and recommend her!”
“Mario is an incredibly considerate and kind sitter! We have boarded with Mario many many times now and will continue to do so. He does a great job communicating and sending photos everyday! Highly recommend”
“Wei took very good care of our pup! We had to board him for a week and she shared updates, photos and videos while we were away. She administered medication for his apparent allergies and we got him back in very good shape. She has a nice and big backyard and I could tell how happy our dog was digging around it :) Would definitely board with her again!”
“Ivan took great care of Remy while i was away for two weeks. He sent lots of updates and adorable photos of Remy having fun which was just so nice to see. Communication and coordinating drop off and pick up was easy and Remy came home happy and healthy. Definitely recommend!”
“This was now our third visit and as with the two previous visits, our dog Chica was a happy camper! From all the great photos and updates it was evident that she really enjoyed playing with the other dogs. We had absolutely no worries while away for the Thanksgiving holidays. When we picked her up, she was her usual loving happy self! Thank you Allison and Gordon!”
“Kenneth did an amazing job watching my dog. He sent me so many great updates with photos multiple times a day so I knew how she was doing. My dog can be a little shy with new people but Kenneth made her feel comfortable and at home. I could tell by the photos she had warmed up. Kenneth was also very good at following the care instructions I left. I would definitely recommend him as a dog sitter!”
“Ming-Ching took really great care of our chihuahua Teacup for a week and sent us many pictures every day and even videos! She went above and beyond compared to other sitters we've used on Rover because she plays with Teacup and trains her with treats. Will definitely rebook!”

Thank you. I trust Ellen w my precious boys, as should you w yours 💕”

I can tell Minnie was integrated as their family member.Kennedy was such a calm and lovely buddy. Minnie came back with us healthy and happy . Thanks again for your care.

“Deborah was super friendly to me and my two cats. She agreed to FaceTime me before I booked so I can see how comfortable I was with her and to see her home. We discussed moving plants so the cats wouldn’t get sick and she was very patient and kind as I gave feeding directions and so on. She was also very patient, as my cats are quite energetic. I recommend Deborah for boarding!”
“Zoeyanne is the best! She is our “go to” solution for pet sitting in the Half Moon Bay area. She is thorough, prompt and professional, and she really cares about my cat! You cannot miss with Zoeyanne!”
“This was our first pet-sitting experience with Esmeralda, and she handled it beautifully. Because she was new to the house and our 3 cats, we had her stay full-time during our 6 day holiday. She took excellent care of our pets and our home!”
“Maila did a great job dropping in on our cat, Felix, while we were away for a few days. She even let him play outside for a bit, which I’m sure he loved since he’s an indoor-outdoor cat and doesn’t get to go outside as much when we are traveling.”
“Lehna was amazing. She communicates in a timely manner and clearly loves pets. She took care of my two cats on short notice, and I've never felt more relaxed while away. She documented everything she did on each visit and shared photos. I highly recommend her.”
“Amie did a great job taking care of our 2 cats. She is reliable and highly responsive. My cats felt at ease with her. I will definitely book her again whenever we need cat care!”
“Chelsea sent great pictures of my cat! It felt great to see a variety of pics so I had an idea of how she was interacting with the cat. They looked very cozy together, which was heartwarming.”
“Denisse and her cat sitting team did a great job caring for our kitties over the holidays while we were on vacation! She came over to meet them and go through their routine the week before our trip. We received a bunch of photos and little updates on the kitties after every visit! We are so grateful that they were willing to take time away from celebrating the holidays to take care of our babies.”
“Sukky (Siqi) is an amazing Rover cat sitter — incredibly attentive and truly knows how to interact with cats. Hoohoo was so well cared for, and reading her daily update notes genuinely made my day every time. She’s thoughtful, observant, and clearly experienced with cats. She also went above and beyond what I expected: she helped brush Hoohoo’s fur, tidied up the living room, and took absolutely fantastic photos (I’m literally using them as my phone wallpaper!). On top of that, she even drew an adorable little sketch of Hoohoo — such a sweet and personal touch. I’m so grateful for everything she did, and I will definitely book Siqi again next time. Highly recommend!”
“Our cat is very anxious and not easy to deal with, but Melissa put a lot of effort into building trust with him and making him feel comfortable while we were away. We really appreciate her patience, attention and care!”
“James is the best of the best! Our cat LOVES him and he is truly one of a kind who adores animals! We love having James take care of our cat over and over! Thanks James!”

“Cynthia and her family were the best. Very accommodating and easy to communicate with. She sent us multiple pictures and videos throughout the day which made me feel at ease. I was so happy to see that Amaru had fun and enjoyed his stay. Will definitely book with Cynthia again and am so happy to find a new dog sitter for Amaru close to home. Thank you so much for everything!!”
“Anthony was one of the best dogsitters I’ve connected with through Rover. He has been super clear with communication, very flexible/accommodating of Fluffy’s needs and my schedule, and most importantly, took super good care of Fluffy. She’s a high maintenance dog that barks a lot, but I could tell immediately that Anthony is very confident in taking care of all kinds of dogs in all situations.”
“Jeffery was fantastic. Our puppy is very skittish and doesn’t take to new people easily. By the end of doggy daycare, she was letting him pet her and feed her treats. This speaks volumes! It is clear from all interactions with Jeffery that he’s a very caring individual that puts your pet first and foremost. Would definitely recommend. Also his dog Barney was the cherry on top! Both dogs loved to play together.”
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.
About: Your pup will be enjoying a spacious home with the accompaniment of a hot dog! We are able to sit for other animals as well: hamsters, rabbits, reptiles, even fish. We have a fenced yard in the back as well as comfortable carpeting for your pup to scratch its ears. We welcome pets on weekends or when you go on vacation! Rest assured that your pet is in good hands! I need 5 more words... About my yard Backyard is made of concrete, I've specially built a doggy potty area for pups to use.
“My puppy loves visiting Dalia! When we pull up, she jumps out of the car and runs to the door with excitement. Dalia always makes sure my puppy gets a good walk and a nap in, and she comes home in a great mood.”
“Thank you Su! Roxie had such a great time and was happy. Su takes lots of pictures and communicates well with dog owners. Definitely using Su for future dog sitting. Her place was perfect for a dog as well.”
“I feel completely at ease leaving my fur baby with her, knowing Mochi will be cared for with love and attention. —Mochi adores her, and it’s clear Shirley treats her like one of her own.”
“Courtney took such great care of Otto! She sent me lots of pictures throughout the day and even gave him a bath for me! He came come squeaky clean, happy, and tired.”
“Genuine people in this world are truly rare treasure! We rescued Rocco from the SPCA and quickly realized he could not be left at home alone while we went to work. I found out about this app a few days later and downloaded it. We were SO nervous leaving Rocco with new people after we just got him, but at the meet and greet Rocco warmed up to Gordon and Allison quickly. My partner are I felt so reassured that Rocco would be safe and cared about. Gordon and Allison are truly the most kind human beings my partner and I have met in a really long time. We were so grateful to find them. They will absolutely take the care of your dog. They took the BEST pictures of Rocco during the day too! My work schedule changed and we no longer need their services. Give them a try, we absolutely loved them and you and your pup will too! 🐾❤️”
“Tiffany is super communicative and flexible! Dallas seemed to enjoy his time staying with her and he seems tired out when we pick him up because she often walks him or takes him to the park. Would 100% recommend :)”
“Another great experience with Jayern...this time for doggy-daycare (please see my earlier in-depth review on Feb. 9, 2019 for dog-boarding)! She is great with my little Hachi and understands ways to help him with his awkward socializing skills. She's super detailed in her report of Hachi's day with her and is super organized! She genuinely cares about each dog in her care and really does take the time to understand each one's needs, temperament, and behavior individually and in a group setting. Jayern is now my go-to sitter for my furbaby and highly recommend her to others!!!”
“Our puppy had his first ever day away from home and he had a blast, making friends and having new experiences. Which I know because Jenisa sent us a bunch of pictures of his day. He came home tired and happy! Will definitely be back!”
“My dog really loves Kimberlin. On the very first day when I picked up my dog from daycare, he went to Kimberlin and he was saying goodbye. He doesn’t usually do that to anybody especially on the first day of daycare. Kimberlin made sure that my dog was well taken cared of and she gave me updates throughout the day. Kimberlin is very gentle and kind to my dog. I highly recommend her and I am grateful that I found her.”

“Esmeralda is wonderful with our golden retriever! She is calm, attentive, and engaging, gets in sync with his personality, and lets him enjoy being outside for an adventure, read the daily doggie news or just hang out listening to music. She is a professional when it comes to her canine care so we are confident when we leave our pup with her. Thank you Esmi!! 😁”
“Venora is highly professional, responsible, and always on time. Comes across as a caring, empathetic person. She bonded with my dogs very quickly. It usually takes time for my younger dog, Cooper to feel comfortable with a new person, but he quickly came around to her friendly, smiling manner. She is definitely someone we would use as the need arises. I can unequivocally recommend her as an excellent dog walker.”
“Lehna has been a great resource for the care of my two staffies. I have booked her several times already for walks and drop ins. She responds very quickly to requests, has strong communication skills and she updates me with details about how my dogs behaved with her. She has been professional and responsible and I can easily recommend her.”
“Alyssa was on time and very communicative. my two pups were very happy when I got home. She walked for an hour and brought them back safely. I will definitely be using her services again.”
“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.”
About: I have one dog, who is 7 years old and three cats and they are between the ages of 12-14. By having all these animals, I have a full understanding on how and why it is important to take care of your pets. I recently just graduated college and currently, I am in the process of finding a post graduate job! This job will give me the chance to take a break from staring at the screen, and have fun with many pets! I understand that every animal has their own personality. I will definitely take note on what the pet's likes and dislikes are. In my own home, I have a gated backyard with a friendly dog. I would be happy to keep them away from each other if needed.
“Zoeyanne had great rapport with both of my dogs (who have very different personalities and lots of quirks). She was also very patient and helpful with some problems I had booking the appointment.”

They took great care of our pup Kiwi, who can be anxious and slow to warm up to people, and they understood that Kiwi needs to go at her own pace. Upon handoff, they immediately took her for a quick walk around the block which helped ease the transition, and by that evening, Kiwi was comfortable and asking for pets. Katie and Jason are quick to respond and kept us updated with both many adorable photos and brief recaps of walks or fun things that happened in the home. They accommodated our late pickup time with no fuss and had everything prepared: the bowls were washed and dried, and the blanket was folded. Highly recommend these two! Kiwi would love to stay with them again. Thanks Katie and Jason!”

We appreciate you and will hopefully see you again next time we are in need of a sitter for our pups 🫶🏽”
