“Nadya was great! Her place is a relaxing retreat for the dogs, lots of sunny spots to lounge in the yard. She sent great pics while we were gone. She was kind, friendly and responds quick to texts. Would definitely recommend her.”

“We were worried that our Mimi would be very anxious away from us - but she fit right in to Deborah’s home and we were able to enjoy our time away knowing she was truly cared for. Deborah was great at communication too and seeing Mimi’s smiles in the pictures was wonderful. Definitely will ask Deborah again if the need arises. Thank you!”
“We were very happy with the care our dog received. Mila was communicative, attentive to our instructions, and clearly took great care of our dog while we were away. It gave us real peace of mind knowing everything was being handled so well. We’re grateful to have found someone we can trust and would gladly book with her again.”

“Lillie and her family were so kind and welcoming to my pup. She sent lots of pics while we were away and was very communicative around how he was doing. She seemed genuinely affectionate with him too so I know he was not short on receiving love. Super thankful for her care ❤️”

“Kyle and her pup Frankie were the absolute best sitters! Kyle allowed us to come over and intro the pups before we officially booked. During the stay, we received lots of positive reports plus photos and videos of the pups playing, at the park, and sleeping on the couch together. We knew our pup was in great hands and we will 100% rebook for our next trip.”

“Bianca was so kind and responsive, took great care of Aspen and always kept me updated. I would recommend her to anyone and would also be happy to have Aspen stay with her again anytime. Thank you!”

“We can’t sing her praises enough! Emily was so sweet and welcoming to our Javier. He’s a new rescue for us and she is his first sitter. She sent so many updates showing him making himself right at home. When we picked him up she ran one of his toys out to us and he ran to her. THAT’S how at home he was there. She’s fantastic!”


“Drake had such a wonderful time with Tula. I loved the updates throughout his stay, which gave me comfort knowing he settled in ok and was having a good time. Would definitely recommend her to anyone needing their dog watched, especially since Drake can be reactive to strangers and other dogs. She was very understanding and handled him with a ton of care.”

“Christian was great taking care of our little Fig. He was very prompt at responding to our last-minute request and was a good communicator overall. It sounds like he has a lot of experience taking care of a variety of breeds. We will definitely be using Christian again!”

“Mary was absolutely wonderful with Kona. She was also incredibly understanding when our needs changed and her flexibility was very much appreciated. Kona came home tired and happy and we will certainly use her in the future.”

“Our Bernedoodle Wilbur had a wonderful time staying the night with Marisa and her sweet family. Marisa was loving and kind with Wilbur, giving me updates on how he was doing and his eating. We will definitely ask Marisa again to care for Wilbur. We highly recommend!”

“Carla was wonderful with our 18 pound mix Charlie! She went on lots of walks despite the rainy weather and was well-taken care of. We would certainly hire Carla again to watch Charlie!”

“Jesse was incredible with my pup! He was so flexible to meet us at a nearby park where my dog was most comfortable. He was so patient to learn about her personality and needs. He kindly did not book other dogs while my dog was staying with him as I had requested. My dog has a decent amount of energy, and I was so happy that Jesse would take her running and hiking. She had the best time, I knew she was in good hands, and I would absolutely book Jesse again.”


About: I grew up with dogs and I’ve been a dog owner most of my adult life. I’ve also been a dog owner from the puppy age of eight weeks all the way through mature life. I can take care of other pets as well, and I can be available for dog boarding, dog sitting, dog walks, and other pet care during your weekends and travels. I am a part-time parent and establishing this as additional income since I am a single income household in Marin county. I am available for dog walking and boarding on alternating weekends, and during periods of your travels when I am in town. I am an outdoors woman, and will get pets outside and active regularly. I know several local dog parks and dog-friendly trails since I’ve been a dog owner myself for years (I no longer have a dog as of early 2025). I have a fenced front and backyard. I can house a pet with all of your personal items for the pet anywhere in my home, and I can provide highly personalized care since I live alone (part time parent with alternating weekends on my own).
About: I grew up with cats and dogs and even started my own dog walking business when I was ten. I love animals … maybe even more than people. 😂 I’d be honored to care for your cats and dogs while you’re away. I would love to help you care for your pets when my children are at school…and if it’s okay for them to visit with your sweet dogs and cats as well I have TONS of flexibility all day. I am very careful with pets. They are part of the family. Please tell me what you feel comfortable with and I will follow the instructions to the last detail. I have so much love to give these animals and am hoping to get to spend my time with helping them not miss you too much while you’re away.

“Chuck was fantastic and went way above and beyond for me when he watched my cat. He was very responsive and kind and patient when I was worried. I can’t recommend him highly enough. There should be more than five stars available for someone as good as he was.”

“Lydia is amazing. Not only did she know how to gain my kitty’s trust and keep her happy and occupied, she also administered daily medication. Lydia is also a great communicator, flexible with her time and clearly devoted to my pet. I couldn’t have left her in better care and will definitely be booking her again.”


“Great communication, friendly, very patient with my shy dog who required coaxing out of his crate initially but was getting belly rubs by the end of the visit. Would absolutely recommend!”


“Meghan did a fantastic job with our pets - couldn’t be happier with her prompt amd professional communication and responsiveness. She watched our dog and cat and did walks everyday etc. thanks!”


“We are so glad we found Trisha! She took wonderful care of our two cats while we were on vacation. She was always on time, very reliable, and kept us updated every day with plenty of photos, which meant so much to us while we were away and missing our little ones. From the pictures, it was clear that our cats loved her, and honestly, we think they might even be missing her now! It gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. We would definitely recommend Trisha to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy cat sitter!”


“Marilee has been so great to work with, communicative and warm. She befriended a kitty who can be very wary of new people. She was able to get him in every night and gave him lots of love. My place looked great, just as I left it. We will definitely be having her again and again.”


“So grateful! This was my first time using Rover and I am thrilled with the match. Kathryn was awesome and took great care of our kitten. Our kitten was happy and very relaxed and this made for an easy transition. Kathryn kept us up to date with sweet pics which made it even easier to enjoy the trip and not worry at all about a thing. Kathryn also took wonderful care of our house. She even noticed some of our plants needed water and offered to take care of that. Very much looking forward to working with Kathryn again and Peanut has made a fast new friend.”


About: I currently have a chocolate point Siamese female nine year old cat with beautiful blue eyes. I don’t allow her around any dogs and she is always kept away in a separate room until the dog has left. I feel like cats are so special because they bring you so much unconditional love and affection and are so pretty and adorable. What’s their not to like? They really are angels on earth.

About: I also love taking care of cats if you need your kitty to be fed, checked on, and loved while you are away. My sister was allergic to cats growing up and we never had one so I’m getting all the time I can in now- and I found I really enjoy cats and their different personalities!
“Audrey was recommended by a friend. She was great. Easy to communicate with. I got pictures of my cats cuddling with her during the visits. She even helped with putting an unexpected grocery delivery in the fridge. Five stars!!”


About: I've had dogs in my life since I was a middle schooler. Between my family dogs and dogs who have lived in my home since then I have been responsible for at least 7 dogs, of all shapes, sizes and demeanors. I've kept moody Dachshunds, energetic Shelties, even tempered Retrievers and even rescue Pitbulls. I love hiking and getting outdoors, and bringing a canine friend along. I currently have one dog of my own, a peppy rescue mix, and he is my best friend I am available to dog/house sit very regularly. I am an ecological land designer working most days from home with the exception of days where I need to do a site visit or connect with my team in person. I can pretty much work from anywhere with a good internet connection, so most days would be able to be around in case your dog needs more frequent walks or attention. In addition to dogs I love other pets and plants! If you have house plants, a veggie garden or other plants that need some watering or attention while you're away I'll be able to help in the department as well! I work from home most days, so I am able to be flexible around a pets needs regarding feeding, walks, and medication. Ocassionally I do have to leave home for work, and that is typically up to 4 hours. We have one dog at home and since we don't have a yard, we typically take him up on the ridge to walk, or to the Red hill Dog park or San Quentin beach. These are great places to have some fun exercise
“Maya was an efficient and responsive carer for our two cats. We returned after a week away to very clean and well-maintained pet areas, and two happy cats. What more could you ask for? Would definitely recommend her!”

“If you have any doubts about leaving your furry friend in the care of a home sitter, Marisa will put your anxieties to rest. She took great care of my good buddy Gus the Cat, hanging out with him, giving him treats, and sending daily images of the little guy. I simply could not be more pleased, or grateful.”

“Katya was so amazing with my cat Peanut!! I felt so at ease while we were gone for a little over a week. Katya was super great at communicating, and in all the pictures she sent you could tell Peanut was so happy and comfortable with her. She went above and beyond to make sure Peanuts space was nice and clean, and overall did just such a great job at making sure our home was taken care of as well. Definitely would recommend her services and will 100% be booking with Katya again! Thank you Katya!”


About: Cats have a special place in my heart, I’m patient, observant, and attentive to subtle cues—because I know a flicking tail or slow blink says a lot. I prioritize consistency, cleanliness, and low-stress care, and I always follow your cat’s routine closely. My goal is to keep your cat comfortable and confident in their own space while giving you peace of mind that they’re in gentle, capable hands.

“Poppy ran happily to Sophie when I dropped her off after only meeting her once during the meet and greet. That says a lot since Poppy is an anxious little girl. She looked very happy when I picked her up as well. Sophie sent updates and photos and was very sweet and easy to work with. I highly recommend her!”

“Nadya was so kind and took great care of our puppy, sending photos and videos throughout his stay. We’ll definitely be reaching out again next time we’re in town and need someone to take care of Appa for the day! Thank you, Nadya!”

“I've never used a dog sitter before today and was a bit nervous because my dog tends to struggle with separation anxiety and he is currently mourning the loss of his brother. Lillie is so thoughtful and clearly has a huge heart for dogs! She welcomed me with flowers because she knew we were grieving the loss of our other dog. Lillie's energy and dog friendly environment helped put my dog at ease right away. Her dog was so friendly and was excited to have a fur pal to play with. I appreciated getting pictures and videos of my dog throughout the day. I definitely recommend Lillie!”

“Thanks marissa, I was able to work all day and not worry about my pup being taken care of, especially on a holiday. She was quick to respond and I appreciated her positive attitude. I definitely would use her again.”

About: Hi! I’m a mom, and lifelong animal lover based in San Rafael. With over 20 years of experience caring for pets—including sitting for all of our friends dogs and cats—I bring both heart and hands-on knowledge to every dog I care for. I work from home and offer dog walking, pet sitting, and boarding 7 days a week. I love being outdoors and make time daily for walks, hikes, and playtime in nearby parks, trails, and beaches. I have twins in high school who were raised around animals and love spending time helping to walk, play, and socialize with our furry guests. Whether it’s a high-energy puppy, a senior dog needing special care, or a shy pup who needs patience and love, I adjust my schedule to meet each dog’s individual needs. I've cared for puppies and seniors needing medication, and everything in between. I'm located right near beautiful walking trails, and beaches, and dog-friendly parks—perfect for pups who enjoy both exercise and social time. When your pet stays with me, they’re part of the family. Safety, affection, and joy come first in our home—and yours. Let’s chat about how I can help care for your four-legged friend!

I am right by a great park and trails for fun walks. I don't have a crate for sleeping, but I have comfortable dog beds. I cook for our pet milo, so if you need home cooking Ican accommodate that. Milo is almost 17 years old! He is part Corgi and Part Belgian Shepard. He loves other pets that visit us.
“Amber was great! She took the trouble to come over for a "meet and greet" with Leo and Bailey the day before her job, which not only established a relationship in advance but gave us a chance to discuss the drill with them in unrushed fashion, ahead of time. Amber has a great chill way with dogs and is a reliable and cheerful person to work with. Would definitely use again.”


About: Hi! I’m a big dog lover who truly enjoys spending time caring for dogs and making them feel happy and safe. I know how special our pets are and how important it is to leave them with someone who will treat them with patience, kindness, and love. I have over two years of experience caring for my own dog, which has taught me how to understand their needs, routines, and personalities. My home is calm, loving, and a place where dogs can feel comfortable and relaxed. I will make sure your dog receives lots of attention, playtime, and affection so they feel at home. I treat every dog as if they were part of my own family. I also like to send photos and updates so you can see how your dog is doing and feel peaceful knowing they are being well cared for. Trabajo desde casa y vivo en un hogar tranquilo y lleno de cariño con un patio grande donde los peluditos pueden correr, jugar o simplemente relajarse al sol. Mi perro es muy dulce y amigable y le encanta tener otros perritos cerca. Trato a cada peludito como parte de la familia y me aseguro de que se sientan queridos, seguros y cómodos durante su estadía. I work from home, so I get to spend a lot of time with furry friends and give them plenty of attention, love, and playtime during the day. I enjoy having them around, going outside with them, and making sure they feel comfortable and happy. I try to follow their usual routine so they feel safe and at home.
“Hir and Mitchell were absolutely wonderful with Sheba! From the moment I arrived, they greeted me outside, which immediately made me feel comfortable and confident leaving her in their care. It was clear right away that they are true animal lovers. They took Sheba on a walk right away and kept in great communication with me throughout the time she was with them, which I really appreciated. Everything felt easy—from finding their place to coordinating drop-off and pick-up. I’m so grateful to have found them. Highly recommend!”

“We were traveling and had last minute need for a sitter. What a lucky break finding Carla & Lenny! Not only was our boy well cared for, but he went on a gorgeous hike and made friends! He may have had a better holiday than us! Definitely will use again when we’re back in the area.”

About: As a lifelong dog enthusiast who grew up with furry companions, I possess a genuine love for our four-legged friends. With a heart full of affection for dogs and a background in caring for them, I am well-equipped to provide exceptional dog sitting services. My experience includes looking after the dogs of friends and family, ensuring their well-being, comfort, and happiness while they're in my care. I'm excited to extend my passion and expertise to offer top-notch dog sitting services for your beloved pets. I'm currently work part-time, so I'll have plenty of time to play with your pup! I usually walk my dog at McInnis Park or Civic Center everyday I have a 4 year old spayed female 10 pound mini dachshund which can keep your dog company. Hence I have a size limit of under 30 pound dog that I can accept for my services. Much of my work is from home, so they will be in a safe and calm environment. Also I usually walk my dog in the morning and afternoon to ensure she has fun outdoors and gets the right amount of exercise.
“Lori and Frank were incredibly warm to me and my dog! They welcomed him with open arms and gave him so much love - I was able to happily be without him knowing he was in great hands with Lori and Frank. They loved his idiosyncrasies and did everything they could to make my dog comfy - he can’t wait to go back and I will definitely use Lori and Frank regularly!”

“Guillermo was so helpful and great to work with! He answered all my messages right away and was very thoughtful about asking questions to make sure my nervous dog would feel as comfortable as possible. Really appreciate his help with doggy daycare so my pup didn't have to be home alone!”

About: I was raised in a home full of dogs and cats. We took in any and all strays. Even had a pet duck that lived to be 12 years old. I have bottle fed puppies that the mom dog was too spoiled to care for and my English Bulldog taught me so much about how to deal with a dog with medical challenges. I'm patient and kind. I'm currently working as an assistant TK teacher and I only work part-time so I have plenty of time to watch over your fur babies. My apt is safe and I can take them on neighborhood walks or hikes. I'm fully capable of taking care of dogs or cats in my home or yours.
About: I have 2 dogs of my own at home! We love spending our nights after work at the dog park or going on hikes together on the weekends. Most of my friends and neighbors ask me to take care of their pups whenever they travel and it’s something that brings me a lot of joy! I work from home so my schedule is flexible. I can take breaks and go for long or short walks throughout the day. I am most free before work, during my lunch break 1:00-2:00pm or after 5:30pm I am very attentive to the needs of each pet and make sure they feel relaxed in any situation. I have dogs of my own at home and understand the importance of keeping them leashed and safe.

“Chris was easy to communicate with, thoughtful in his questions. His even keeled temperament was a great fit for our 8 month old puppy. He shared photos and potty info which was also super helpful. Our pup came home happy (and ready for a nap!)”

About: Dogs have always been a part of my life, and I genuinely care for every dog as if they were my own family. I've had the joy of owning both a tiny Chihuahua and a gentle Great Dane, giving me firsthand experience with dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and energy levels. In addition, I volunteer as a dog walker for Guide Dogs for the Blind, where I regularly walk dogs with unique personalities, training needs, and routines. This experience has taught me the importance of patience, consistency, and understanding each dog's individual needs. Integrity and compassion are at the heart of everything I do. Whether we're out for a walk, enjoying playtime, or simply keeping your dog company, you can trust that they'll receive attentive, loving care and be treated with the same kindness, respect, and attention I would give my own pets. My goal is to give you peace of mind, knowing your furry family member is safe, happy, and truly cared for every step of the way. My schedule is very flexible, allowing me to accommodate my clients' needs and, whenever possible, walk their dogs at their usual times to help maintain a consistent routine. I treat every client's home with the utmost respect and care, just as I would my own. I'm happy to accommodate your household preferences and routines, whether that's setting or disarming an alarm system, following a shoes-off policy, or honoring any other instructions that help your home run smoothly. I'm also experienced with crating and feeding dogs, and I'm comfortable administering medications when needed. My goal is to make both you and your dog feel safe, supported, and well cared for.

“Thomas has been a life saver for us with our dog Guinness. He is always on time, he is reliable, he is patient with our somewhat moody, large dog, and he has become our regular walker 3x per week. Thomas is super responsive to messages and seems to genuinely enjoy spending time with Guinness. I highly recommend Thomas !”

About: I have loved animals all my life. I have a special place in my heart for all animals. I have owned and taken care of animals for 40 years.

I am currently on a sabbatical so I have plenty of time to pet sit. I am available weekends, evenings, and mornings. I am available for long-term arrangements. I have a small fenced yard and I love to go on long walks. I give pets lots off affection and attention if they want it. I also just let them relax if that is what they need. Either way I am a very attentive caretaker.
“Carla is just wonderful! I trusted her the moment I opened the door to meet for the first time. She let me know what her plan was & sent pictures during & after of our sweet husky! Thank you so much Carla, you’re amazing!!”

About: Having 2 dogs of my own I am well versed in every aspect of making pets feel loved and cared for! I have cared for pets for nearly 8 years house sitting overnight, taking pups for lengthy walks and doing check ins/ feedings. I make it my mission to bond with your pet and make sure they are comfortable. I am available for pet sitting when I am home from college. My schedule is mostly flexible with majority of my availability being in the afternoons/evenings on weekdays and all day on weekends. I make sure that pets have the chance to warm up to me and that I put their needs first. I am comfortable with judging when a dog wants to go for a longer walk or head home early. Similarly with cats, I am able to gauge if a cat needs extra play time or if they want to be alone to nap. I will always check in with you as the owner before I sit, to make sure I know exactly what your pet needs!

“We were worried that our Mimi would be very anxious away from us - but she fit right in to Deborah’s home and we were able to enjoy our time away knowing she was truly cared for.

She had the best time, I knew she was in good hands, and I would absolutely book Jesse again.”

About: I was raised in a home full of dogs and cats. We took in any and all strays. Even had a pet duck that lived to be 12 years old. I have bottle fed puppies that the mom dog was too spoiled to care for and my English Bulldog taught me so much about how to deal with a dog with medical challenges. I'm patient and kind. I'm currently working as an assistant TK teacher and I only work part-time so I have plenty of time to watch over your fur babies. My apt is safe and I can take them on neighborhood walks or hikes. I'm fully capable of taking care of dogs or cats in my home or yours.
“Fantastic sitter! My anxious dog absolutely loved Orrya! Orrya was an excellent communicator, was willing to meet us before for an introductory meeting, and sent plenty of picture updates of Louis (our dog).”

“Christine was incredible with my little French Bulldog Abby. She kept her for one week and it was the first time boarding her for that long so I was a little apprehensive leaving her with someone. Abby came away not wanting to leave, happy as a clam. Christine was great at communicating, sending photos, videos and updates. I have not reservations recommending Christine as someone to trust with you precious pet. She cares and is meticulous about details for your individual situation. Will definitely use again. Thank you Christine!”

“Ellen is wonderful! She's great at communication - sending many photos, gives us daily updates and is always on time. Our dog always comes home tired, which is a good thing, as he's a puppy that needs play.”


About: Hello! I have cared for animals of every kind since I was able to hold a leash, brush a cat, and collect chicken eggs. I'm a Mill Valley mom, educator, and current owner of two sweet Cavalier King Charles Spaniels. I have owned cats, dogs, chickens, rodents and birds. I keep bees as an active beekeeper. I am experienced with medically fragile animals and am comfortable giving all meds, including subcutaneous fluids. I have fostered for years with Marin Humane and Milo as well as professionally pet sitting through Trusted House Sitters and Home Exchange in addition to Rover. My home is warm, safe, child and animal friendly. My yard is fenced and my children (ages 8 and 14) love share in the caring of animals. We all care deeply about animals and will give yours all the love they need. We would love to have your dogs join our pack for awhile! I am an educator and off for the summer. I have plenty of time to care for your pets along with my own. My kids and I stay local and have adventures and relaxing downtime all summer long. I have a large, fenced yard that includes hill side. My house is warm, cozy, pet and kid friendly. My dogs sleep on my bed and I'm fine if yours want to also. We love neighborhood walks and throwing balls in the backyard.
