“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We are beyond grateful for the exceptional care Rikiya provided for our beloved Simba while we were away. From the very beginning, his kindness, professionalism, and genuine love for animals were evident. He treated Simba as if he were his own, giving him so much attention, care, and affection. What truly set him apart was the constant communication—sending thoughtful updates, pictures, and videos that gave us complete peace of mind and reassured us that Simba was happy, safe, and well loved. Coming home to a relaxed and joyful pet meant everything to us. We trust him wholeheartedly and will absolutely be leaving Simba with him again in the future. We highly recommend him to anyone looking for someone truly special to care for their pet.Thank you so much Rikiya ⭐️”

“Julie was so sweet and attentive to Charlie and making sure he felt right at home! Her two dogs are very sweet and they all got along perfectly. Julie took Charlie for multiple long walks to help him exercise and helped him be comfortable at night. She has a very spacious home and backyard where he enjoyed to play. She sent me updates woth pictures and videos that showed me he was having a great time. Already booking our next visit!”

“Brian and his family took great care of my pup. They were very responsive, followed his schedule, and made sure to ask questions to ensure his comfort. I can tell they truly cared for my pup and had the best intentions making sure my boy felt right at home. Highly recommend booking and I will definitely be back!”

“Could not be more happy with her services. I have never been away from my dog more than a few days. But I was traveling oversea and was very worried about leaving my little guy in a kennel for that long. A friend suggested I find a dog sitter. I found that Kimberly not only had many positive reviews, but also had a lot of returning clients. From now on I will be one of those clients. My dog gets a little bit of an upset stomach now and then and the vet said he needs to take a pro-biotic once a day. Kimberly not only did this, she updated me daily about him and sent pictures. He was so happy playing around with her own dog. My dog might as well have been her own. Thank you, SO much!!”

“We’ve never left our dog with anyone but immediate family and never with anyone for 12 days. Anusha managed our high energy dog perfectly and developed a rapport with him right away. She also managed my own anxiety by sending photos and videos twice daily to show me that our dog was relaxed and happy in her care. I can’t thank her enough for the care and attention she provided.”

“This was my dog’s first boarding experience and Mila made it possible for him to ease into the stay, make friends with fellow dog guests and have fun. She is knowledgeable, patient, and extremely dedicated to the animals in her care”

“I had a wonderful experience with Dipanjana and felt completely at ease leaving my dog in her care. She was attentive, communicative, and clearly genuinely cared about making my dog feel comfortable and happy. I received regular updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. My dog came home relaxed, happy, and clearly well cared for. I truly appreciated her professionalism and kindness throughout the stay. I would absolutely trust her with my dog again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.”

“Sepia was very kind and generous to Bruno. She took great care of him and pampered him. She gave regular updates via messages, photos and videos. We were very happy with her and would highly recommend. Thanks Sepia!”

“Nayana is a great dog sitter for our anxious dog, Brando. I needed last minute coverage for our dog and she was willing to accommodate him. I feel comfortable leaving our family dog with Nayana anytime and know that he will be well cared for and loved. Communication during his stay was also fantastic!”

“Debra did a great job of making us and our dog, Skye, feel welcome. She sent us daily updates with pictures of Skye with her family or out taking walks. She was a last minute provider for us as our usual care person was not available for the dates we needed. She only keeps one guest dog at a time. Skye and her dog, Ginger, got along well.”

“Juliana took fantastic care of Max and Dora. She made sure they got plenty of walks, and we were so happy to see they had such a great time. We felt so confident leaving them with her and will definitely be back!”

“Our dog, Teddy, had a great time here. They were able to take him on short notice and sent us a lot of pictures and videos of him while he was there. Definitely recommend and will use them again.”

“I was lucky to find Michelle and Michael. My dog is young golden retriever with high energy. Michelle and Michael gave my dog plenty of cuddles and attention. They gave my dog long walk and played fetch with him. Michelle sent me updates frequently that helped relieve my separation anxiety. I couldn't be happier to have my dog stay with Michelle and Michael, who are really nice and caring people.”

“Thank you for taking care of Daisy 🌼 she was great and gave a lot of updates on how she was doing. I would definitely recommend and have her look after my dog again!”

“Pablo had such a great time with Sofiya! I got updates everyday about the furry friends he made, his adventures, and his health. I highly recommend and would choose Sofiya to dog sit Pablo in the future”

“This was our second time leaving Maggie with Pissamas. She does an amazing job taking great care of our 13 year old girl. I can see the genuine love she has for dogs and it totally puts my mind at ease while we are gone! Pissamas seems to really pay attention to the little details of what Maggie needs. She even crushed her kibble to make it easier for her to eat with her missing teeth! I could definitely tell Maggie had been loved and well taken care of. Thank you Pissamas!”

“We just picked up our 10 years old border collie Lucky after a 6 day 5 nights stay. It is a pity the highest rating is only 5 stars, to Lucky, Juanyi's service is 10 stars. My border collie does not like strangers in the beginning, but he allows Juanyi pet him in just a few hours. I could see from many pictures and videoes that my boy enjoys the friendship from Kaka, Panda and other lovely guests, also enjoys the love from Juanyi. I feel my boy is having a great vacation of his own too. I always hesitate to sign up family vacation because find a reliable dog sitter is often a difficult task, the last 3 dog sitter we used were moved or no longer offer service. I am glad we found Juanyi and the experience is so great. I read every review when i look for any kind of service, and by the time we book the service, there was only one review, to be honest i was a bit uncertain. During the met and greet, we walked around the neighborhood together, I was so glad Lucky quickly developped friendship with Kaka and Panda, and the drop off session was also great, which allow me to join the family vacation. We will definitely book with Juanyi again for our future vacations, and recommend to every pet parents, my Lucky was treated like Juanyi's own, yours will too!❤️”
“Sabrina did a fantastic job of looking after Mili, our 8 year golden retriever while we were away for the weekend. She was always responsive and sent updates/pictures everyday. Mili had a great time and we will definitely use Sabrina’s services the next time we need a sitter.”

“Merryn was super amazing with Nemo!! I really enjoyed seeing the cards she wrote about the visits and the photos of Nemo! Would love for Merryn to babysit my little one again ?”

About: I’ve been a pet-sitter since I was 12 years old, and love caring extensively for any kind of animal! I would love to take care of yours and have a great time! Im a freshman at SJSU studying molecular biology to pursue veterinary science and follow my path to become a veterinarian. I am also a full time kennel technician, and love my job just as much as I adore all pets. Animals of all shapes and sizes have been my passion since childhood, and I’m excited to grow my experience and connect with your beloved pets! I work full time but I’m more than lucky to be able to adjust my work schedule to fit most requests I receive on Rover! I am able to make work whatever space you may have in your home, indoor or outdoor, to accommodate your pets energy and play level!
“Sandi is absolutely amazing! She took such good care of my 2 cats with daily drop in visits. She did a free ‘get to know’ visit and wrote all the notes about food and litter and their hiding spots. My cats were too shy to say hi then, but over the next 8 days one of them was purring and cuddling with her. She sent daily notes and tons of pictures and even videos with detailed reports on how much food had been consumed, if they were peeing and pooing ok- some of those notes were hilarious and so endearing. She cleaned the litter boxes everyday and left that area so clean. At no point during the trip was I worried about the little ones. I highly recommend Sandi to take care of your fur babies (as she refers to them in her daily notes), she is awesome.”
“Jessica is the best cat sitter! She watched my last cat before she passed away and even though it says she's out of my range, she still accepted to watch my new baby. Takes very good care of pets and gives lots of attention ☺️”


“Madeline did an outstanding job and made us feel our cats were in safe hands. She did everything we asked and more. We will be booking with her everytime we go out of town. We feel very blessed to have found her.”


About: I’m comfortable caring for cats and understand their unique needs and personalities as I have had them growing up and in recent years. I take a calm, patient approach—letting cats warm up at their own pace while making sure their routines, feeding, litter box care, and environment are kept clean and stress-free. Also have experience giving them medications from pills to liquids. I am very comfortable around cats.
About: I have taken care of small dogs and big dogs. I have owned 2 German Shepherd dogs and a Pug over the last 15 years. I have been a sitter and a walker for family and friends. Our pug lived to 16 years old and was blind and deaf. I make my 2 year old German Shepherds food for her because of diet restrictions. I will treat your dog like my own. I will show them love, and attention they deserve. If your dog needs a walk to get that energy out, I would love to be the one to take your dog to play. I am retired, so my schedule is open. All I ask is for a day or so advance on scheduling. I love walking my dog and getting her energy out. If you have a high energy dog that needs walks, or any dog that enjoys the outdoors, I would love to be your choice. I will come to your home to walk your dog, feed them, let them have a potty break, or just to visit. Whatever your needs are, I will do my best to fulfill those needs
“Courtney was fantastic with Eaton! He's a grumpy old man with Cushing's disease and she made sure he was fed, watered, and medicated. Most importantly she went above and beyond in taking him on interesting walks so that he didn't turn into a lump of boredom while we were gone!”


About: I have had dogs all my life and a good pup brings me joy. I have 1 dogs of my own that I love to take on long walks, hiking, and to the beach. I would love to share those experiences with your loved ones aka dogs!! I know we live in busy world and sometimes we need just a little help keeping the pups happy, please let me help so you don't have feel guilty for not taking your buddy out. A few things your dogs will experience while in my care are attention, love, affection, and of course some treats if you will allow. I am a very out going person and your pups will be in good hands. I am here to help. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to care for your pets to take on walks and more. I am available on weekends and weekdays. All dogs I for care will receive walks, snuggle time and more throughout the day, rather they are in my home or their home. Thanks
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all ages and sizes-from playful puppies to older dogs who need extra care. I treat every dog like family and do my best to make them feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you're away. I can give medications if needed, follow feeding routines, and help with any special needs, especially for senior dogs. I also stick to your dog’s normal schedule as much as possible-walks, playtime, or just relaxing. I’m reliable, easy to reach, and happy to send photo updates so you can feel at ease! I’m currently home from college for the summer and have a very open schedule, so I’m looking for something fun and meaningful to do with my free time. Pet sitting is a great fit because I love animals and have plenty of time to give them the attention they deserve. Whether it’s a walk, playtime, or just keeping them company, I’m around and happy to help! Safety and comfort are my top priorities. When caring for pets in my home, I make sure they have a clean, calm, and cozy space where they can relax and feel secure. I always keep an eye on them, follow any routines you share with me, and make sure they get plenty of attention and care. If I’m watching your pet in your home, I’ll treat it with the same respect and responsibility as I do my own. I’ll stick to your pet’s usual schedule and make sure they feel safe while you're away. I’m always happy to send updates and photos so you feel confident your pet is in good hands!

About: I started catsitting for my neighbors when I was 12, and have taken care of my own cats for 10 years. I have fostered kittens and young cats since 2019. I am perfectly prepared to clean up litter boxes and any other messes.
About: Hi there! My name is Belen and I've loved animals my whole life and have cared for pets for friends and family for years. I live in a cozy home with a fenced-in yard, three cats, and one sweet, spayed dog who’s very friendly and gets along great with other pets. I work from home, so I’m able to give your pet lots of attention, care, and companionship throughout the day. I also take my dog on regular walks and dog park visits, so if your pup is social, they’re welcome to join! Our home is fully air-conditioned, calm, and pet-friendly — perfect for playing, relaxing, or snuggling up. Whether your pet needs playtime, cuddles, or a quiet space, I’m happy to provide a safe, loving environment where they feel at home. I am flexible since I work from howe so I am able to do walks and potty breaks very often. I love playing with my dog in the yard and taking her to the dog park so I'm always down to take your dog too! I treat every pet like family and make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. I follow your care routine and give them lots of attention, play, and cuddles.

About: I love cats!!! I want three cats one day when I'm properly settled in to a home. For now, my experience with cats are limited to living with previous roommates who've brought their cats into our homes. In total, I've lived with four cats, but I have befriended plenty of cats through my friends. Cats are overall very chill creatures. I have trouble withholding my constant need to squish them. I hope I can restrain myself from giving your cat too many kisses if you entrust me to care for your furry friend.

“I couldn’t be happier with the care Simba received again . From the first day, it was clear how loving and attentive Rikiya is. Communication was excellent, and Simba felt comfortable and happy. I will definitely be coming back and recommending to friends and family.”

About: I’m basically the kind of person who will stop mid-conversation to say hi to a dog 😄 I genuinely love spending time with animals, and dogs tend to warm up to me pretty quickly—whether they’re playful, shy, or a little bit dramatic. What sets me apart is the energy I bring. I don’t just “watch” dogs—I hang out with them, play with them, and make sure they’re having a good time while you’re away. Whether it’s a long walk, a game of fetch, or just being a cozy couch buddy, I adapt to your dog’s personality and routine. I’m also super detail-oriented, so I’ll follow your instructions closely (meals, meds, quirks—you name it). And you’ll definitely get lots of updates and cute photos, because I know being away from your pet can be hard. I’m great with both high-energy pups who want to play all day and older dogs who just want a calm, gentle presence. Either way, your dog will be safe, happy, and probably a little spoiled 😊 I work from home, so I’m around pretty much all day to give your pet consistent attention and care. They won’t be left alone for long stretches, and I can easily stick to their routine—whether that’s regular walks, playtime breaks, or just being there for company. Having that flexibility means I can give pets lots of supervision, cuddles, and quick responses to their needs throughout the day. It’s perfect for dogs who need extra attention, are a little anxious, or just love having someone around. Safety and comfort are my top priorities. I take time to understand each pet’s routine so they feel relaxed and at home. In my home, pets enjoy a clean, calm space with a fully fenced backyard, daily secured leashed walks, and occasional park visits for extra fun and exercise. Since I work from home, they get constant supervision, attention, and plenty of cuddles. I’m always mindful about safety and provide regular updates so you can feel at ease.
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all kinds. I currently have two dogs and three birds of my own, so I truly understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets—they’re family! If you need boarding care, my home has a fully fenced yard with plenty of space for dogs to play, relax, and feel at ease. Whether your pup is energetic and playful or prefers a calm, cozy setting, I make sure they feel safe comfortable and loved and that they feel right at home. I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities—from energetic puppies to senior dogs who just want a calm, cozy environment. I’m patient, attentive, and always focused on making sure your dog feels comfortable, happy, and safe. On walks, I make sure your dog gets plenty of exercise, stimulation, and attention. During sitting or boarding, I stick closely to your pet’s routine, including feeding schedules, medications (if needed), and favorite activities. I’m also available on weekends and holidays, making it easy to count on reliable care when you need it most. You can expect regular updates, photos, and clear communication so you always feel connected while you’re away. I am a former tech worker in Silicon Valley looking to take my passion for animals full time and care for your incredible pets :) I prioritize creating a safe, calm, and trusting environment wherever I care for pets. I take time to understand each pet’s personality and routine so they feel comfortable and secure. I’m attentive on walks, always using secure leashing and staying aware of surroundings, and in the home I make sure pets are supervised, safe, and stress-free.
“Jen is the sweetest person and has a beautiful and loving home! Vino loved being at their house and playing with Jen and her family! Vino enjoyed their daily walks and playing ball. Throughout the day Jen would send me photos and videos. Vino can’t wait to go back!”

About: I have had pets my entire life and can't imagine living without them! I have two senior dogs (18 and 15 years old). I am recently retired and looking for a way to fill my days with more love while making a little money and getting more exercise. I am available ANYTIME during the week to care for your pets. I may assist on weekends occasionally; however, I like to spend most weekends with my amazing husband (who still works). I will make you and your pet my priority and will give them 100% of my attention and love. I am available anytime Monday - Friday (early morning to early evening). I am abundantly cautious and caring. I will care for your pets as if they were my own. I have two very old dogs, so I understand caring for senior pets as well as the young whippersnappers with puppy-energy!
About: I'm energetic. I love animals and love taking care of them. I am very reliable and always make sure the animal is well taken care of. I had a dog of my own for 17 years and as he got older he needed lots of care. Medication daily, needed an inhaler once a day, and insulin injections. I’m a weightlifter (strong) so working with big, strong dogs is no problem for me! I own a gym with my fiancé in Morgan hill. I coach 2 classes a day wich allows me lots of free time during my days to care for animals. I have a fenced in backyard so your animal will be safe and protected when with me. When I’m in the clients home I never leave the dog alone for more than 3-4 hours which is rare I’m gone that long. But if I have to coach a class I’ll leave and come right back. I always give the dogs 3 walks a day even if the owner only requests 2. I just know it’s important for the dogs to get out and get some fresh air :)
“Jennifer and her family are great! Bennett loves playing their dogs and cuddling on the couch with everyone. Jennifer makes the whole process so easy and is great at communicating needs, updates, and photos. I will absolutely continue taking Bennett to Jennifer for daycare or boarding and would recommend her if you’re looking for somewhere safe and comfortable for your dog to stay.”

“I want to give a huge thank you to Bruno and his fiancée for taking such amazing care of my husky, Nova, especially on such short notice! From the moment I reached out, Bruno’s communication was clear, professional, and thoughtful. He asked about Nova’s allergies, schedule, and any personal preferences to make sure she’d feel comfortable and safe throughout the day. Within the first hour, I received pictures and a video of Nova walking and playing happily with their sweet pup, Jojo. Throughout the day, Bruno continued to send updates, pictures, and videos, in total, I received 15 photos and 4 videos, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear from the start that Nova was not only being watched, but truly cared for. They even gave her snacks and a fun new topping on her food to make her feel extra special. On top of that, Bruno made sure to update Nova’s Rover report with a detailed summary: two long walks, potty breaks, food and water intake, every detail was covered. To top it all off, at the end of the visit, Nova went home with a goody bag and so much love. It genuinely felt like she had a mini vacation of her own. 💛 If you’re looking for responsible, loving, and attentive care for your furry friend, I can’t recommend Bruno and his fiancé enough. They treat your pup like family and make the whole experience stress-free and joyful. I will absolutely bring Nova back again, this is the kind of care every fur friend deserves!”

“Sepia took such good care of Mango. She is very attentive and gives him the attention that he wants being a clingy baby that he is. She sent us regular updates and is very mindful of Mango’s restricted diet due to his sensitivity tummy. Thank you Sepia!”

“Petra and her family do a great job taking care of Otter and Toby. I get updates throughout the day with photos and both pups are always so excited to spend the day with Petra. She is very accommodating and has been great with my rescue pup Otter, making him feel at home. I have been using her daycare services weekly for over a month now, and have had nothing but great experiences with Petra!”


“Charlie had a wonderful stay-cation :) I felt confident with the care and love he received and would definitely like to have Charlie stay again. He cried for Christopher when we drove away which I found really endearing. Thank you!”

About: I’ve always been the one who stops to pet every dog and volunteers to dog-sit whenever someone needs help. I grew up around dogs, from couch potatoes to high-energy pups, and I genuinely love spending time with all of them. Whether your dog wants to play fetch for hours or just cuddle on the couch, I’m here for it! I also regularly visit animal shelters to walk and comfort dogs, —it’s taught me how to be patient, attentive, and in tune with each dog’s unique needs. I'm always happy to provide love, care, and companionship to every pup I meet. Whether it’s a playful puppy or a slow-moving senior, your dog will be treated like family with me! Pet care fits perfectly into my routine because I work from home. That means your pet will have my full attention, constant companionship, and plenty of love all day. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or just relaxing together, I’m here to make them feel safe, happy, and cared for. I have a secure patio if your dog enjoys sunbathing with a nice breeze, and I always make sure they’re comfortable, well-cared for, and never left alone for long. Their happiness and safety are my top priorities!
“Stasha was absolutely wonderful with our dogs, Elora and Jasper. We had a big party to host, and knowing they were in her care gave us so much peace of mind. It honestly allowed us to enjoy the day instead of worrying about the pups. From the start, Stasha was warm, communicative, and incredibly reassuring. She sent us updates and photos throughout the day, which meant so much and made it clear our pups were happy and in great hands. You can tell she genuinely loves dogs and treats them with so much care and attention. Elora and Jasper came home happy, relaxed, and well cared for, which says everything. We felt completely safe trusting Stasha with them, and that kind of trust is huge. If you’re looking for someone reliable, kind, and truly invested in caring for your dogs, I cannot recommend Stasha enough. She made it possible for us to host our party without a single worry, and that was priceless. We would absolutely book with her again in a heartbeat. 🐾”

“My pup is so excited to see Arbella every morning! She has been a regular since she was 4 months old. My mind is at ease while I’m at work, knowing she is well taken care of (and cuddled!). Arbella is also great with communication & sends photo updates during the day.”

“Honestly one of the best walkers we’ve ever had. Timely, communicative and understanding. One of our doggos is a rescue and has trust issues, so it can be challenging for new people to walk him. Sandi, however, has been incredibly patient with him and seems to have earned his trust. You won’t regret booking her!”

“Nothing can appropriately express my relief and gratitude having Marissa check-in on my Kobe while I had to be away overnight. Kobe is getting up there in age, and always looks exhausted and bedraggled when I would pick him up from a kennel situation. I was so thrilled to see him calm and happy and comfy in my home with the gentle care Marissa provided to him!”

“Jessica did awesome with my dog. Sent me photos of my dog, communicated with me, and didn’t give me a hard time or get annoyed with me for being an over bearing dog mom. I’ll be using Jessica on a weekly basis and happy we found her.”

“Courtney helped us out and walked our dog Hazel. She was great, she gave us a heads-up when she was on her way and took Hazel for a good walk. Thanks Courtney! Will contact you again for sure. :)”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for as long as I can remember and have grown up with them my whole life. I’ve raised my own pup since he was just 8 weeks old, so I understand the attention, patience, and love dogs need at every stage. I work fully remote with a flexible schedule, so I’m home most of the day and can easily plan around your dog’s needs. Morning and evening walks are part of my routine, but I can adjust to match your dog’s usual schedule. Whether your pup needs extra walks, playtime, or quiet downtime, I’m here to make sure they get the care and attention they deserve. Your dog’s safety is my top priority. I live in a secure townhouse in a quiet neighborhood, and all walks take place on leash in safe areas or nearby parks. I supervise your dog at all times while they’re in my care, whether we’re playing, walking, or relaxing at home.
“Susan was amazing! I had a last minute cancellation from my typical dog walker and was scrambling to find someone available to walk Theo. Susan quickly agreed. I didn’t have a spare key readily available so I arranged for Susan to go to the leasing office to retrieve a key. She did so without hesitation and was able to take my boy for his walk. I highly recommend Susan and will definitely use her for our dog walking needs again!”

About: I have owned dogs my whole life, specifically rottweilers and now a golden retriever! I am veterinary assistant certified and knowledgeable on animal nutrition. I worked at a food and pet supply store for two years (An Jan). I am a pre-veterinary microbiology major as well. I love to hike, play with, and do enrichment with dogs. I also enjoy taking care of cats and am currently a long term cat-sitter for multiple people! I accept dogs of all sizes and conditions, as long as they are muzzle trained if reactive to other animals or humans. I am free for the summer! I will only have a few dates here and there I am unavailable, and will be open to bookings up until august 10th. I do not mind early morning bookings, but I would prefer bookings that do not surpass 7 pm. I will not bring animals into my home, but I have a large park across the street from my home that I am more than willing to take dogs to! My car can hold medium sized crates to small sized crates if needed. I can take dogs on specific trails or hikes upon request, I do not mind going on more than 1 hour walks/hikes, playing, or doing enrichment if requested. I do not mind giving shots or giving medications in pill form, droppers, pastes, you name it! I can do early morning client-home visits; the earliest being 6 am and the latest I will visit a home at night is 9 pm. I do not mind more than 3 check ins per day! If your animal has specific accommodations, please do not be afraid to let me know! Your animal is a part of your family and should be treated as such.

I also stick to your dog’s normal schedule as much as possible-walks, playtime, or just relaxing. I’m reliable, easy to reach, and happy to send photo updates so you can feel at ease! I’m currently home from college for the summer and have a very open schedule, so I’m looking for something fun and meaningful to do with my free time. Pet sitting is a great fit because I love animals and have plenty of time to give them the attention they deserve. Whether it’s a walk, playtime, or just keeping them company, I’m around and happy to help! Safety and comfort are my top priorities. When caring for pets in my home, I make sure they have a clean, calm, and cozy space where they can relax and feel secure. I always keep an eye on them, follow any routines you share with me, and make sure they get plenty of attention and care. If I’m watching your pet in your home, I’ll treat it with the same respect and responsibility as I do my own. I’ll stick to your pet’s usual schedule and make sure they feel safe while you're away. I’m always happy to send updates and photos so you feel confident your pet is in good hands!

About: I have had dogs all my life and a good pup brings me joy. I have 1 dogs of my own that I love to take on long walks, hiking, and to the beach. I would love to share those experiences with your loved ones aka dogs!! I know we live in busy world and sometimes we need just a little help keeping the pups happy, please let me help so you don't have feel guilty for not taking your buddy out. A few things your dogs will experience while in my care are attention, love, affection, and of course some treats if you will allow. I am a very out going person and your pups will be in good hands. I am here to help. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to care for your pets to take on walks and more. I am available on weekends and weekdays. All dogs I for care will receive walks, snuggle time and more throughout the day, rather they are in my home or their home. Thanks
About: ❀ I love animals!!! What else can I say. Although I've never had my own pet due to bouncing around cities, I've had the privilege of living with furry friends brought in by roommates. The mama in me couldn't help but start co-parenting without my roommates asking for help. In the end, my aid was always appreciated, and I've formed memorable relationships with all these babies. I miss them everyday ❀ ────୨ৎ──── Services provided ❤︎ Walks : 30-60 mins depending on their needs ❤︎ Pet & House Sitting : Your space will be respected & regimens will be followed. ❤︎ Drop Ins : Cuddles, potty breaks, grooming, play time, refill water & food. ────୨ৎ──── Please feel free to message me and ask any questions :) Thanks for checking my profile! As of now, my days are quite free. My only obligations are attending my three classes which take place on M&W 6:30-9pm & Th 9:30-11:30am. I spend a lot of time indoors completing homework and studying as I go through my career transition which is why I thought Rover would be a perfect job for me right now. I have no family and pets of my own either hence having no familial responsibilities to attend to. My time is your furry friend's time when I'm on Rover mama duty. I currently can not board pets nor give doggy day care because my parents are allergic to animals. I can give you any other service though, and I highly prefer house-sitting. As mentioned in my schedule, I can not bring animals into my home. However, I would be happy to house-sit, drop in, and walk your furry friends. If you trust me to house-sit, there will be no mess for you to clean up after. I'm a clean, hygienic gal and am proud to say that I organize my room almost every day. I promise to care for your space as much as I will care for your furry friend. Before you entrust me to house-sit, it would be great for you to leave me some sort of protocol for you pet's routine that I can abide by. This would take off any stress your pet will feel from you leaving for a certain amount of time. I will always ask questions ahead of time, so that I can be your temporary replacement. If there are special needs for your furry friend, I am always willing to accommodate and if I can not, then I will voice that concern of mine. You can always expect good communication from me, and I appreciate the same in return!
About: I started petsitting for my neighbors when I was 12, and have taken care of my own dog since he was a puppy for 8 years. I have some experience training puppies to do basic tricks like sitting, and I enjoy a challenge! I am currently a student in college. While I will certainly have time to take care of pets during the weekdays, my weekends are much more open! I am most free during the afternoons and evenings! I can work with indoor and outdoor cats, and I regularly give baths to my cats and my dog. I can clean up litter boxes and other messes around the house.
“Beth and David regularly walk our dog and have watched her while we are away. They always take great care of our old girl, allowing us to be worry free. We also really appreciate the photos and the updates we receive after each visit!”

About: I'm a responsible adult female who was raised around different types of animals Dogs, cats, birds, reptiles, hamsters, and guinea pigs. I currently have a 10yr old tortieshell cat, have 3 small dogs age 8-10yrs old. I am fully comfortable administering medicine. I. I have done pet sitting, house sitting for my neighbors for 15 plus years, I can provide references. I would keep you up to date on everything your pet does if that's what you would prefer. I look forward to meeting you along with meeting fur baby to provide quality care and put your mind at ease. ( Just to let everyone know that when a dog boards at my house our dogs will not interact unless requested due to their medical issues. Plus dogs will be on the other side of the house. Thank you)
“Maria was great! My dog Theo warmed up to her quickly. She showed up on time for daily walks and stayed for the entire duration. She communicated well and sent lots of photos. Would definitely use her again in the future.”

About: I’ve cared for large dogs for a year, and guinea pigs for five. I have cared for dogs and guinea pigs overnight, in my home, and the homes of others. I can keep up with your dog on walks and can manage them effectively and with little conflict. I know how important your dog is to you and I can and will ensure they will be safe, happy, and comfortable in my care. I go to college from 7 am - 12 pm on Mondays and Wednesdays, from 7 am - 2 pm & 3 pm - 7 pm on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and 7 am - 9 am & 11 am - 5 pm on Fridays. I also work 16-32 hours part-time per week, and have 2 male guinea pigs. While I am busy, I can and will fit in care for your pet on every single one of these days, without fail. Your pet is of the utmost importance to me. I can tell you of my complete schedule up to two weeks away and can make your dog's schedule fit into mine. In my home, I have a fenced in yard and space to care for an animal overnight in the house. The environments for overnight dog care are also climate controlled. I have areas to walk and play with your pet as well, such as parks within 3 minutes walking distance. While I do have guinea pigs, they are in a separate area and out of reach of any dog. I will walk, play with, feed, and even bathe your dog, both in my home and in yours. The only thing to take into account for care in your home is distance from my home, but I can easily adapt.

About: I’ve been a dog mom ever since I was a little girl. In 3rd grade, I was even known as the dog lover of my class. I have experience with a few different types of dogs such as Chihuahuas, Rottweilers, Poodles, etc. I currently work from home running my online web design studio so it's nice to be able to step away from the computer often to reset and what better way than to spend time with my favorites, dogs! I also work a part time retail job 4 days a week so I'm able to book walks on my days off of that job :) I'm a proud dog mom to 3 Maltipoos, Andy, Astro, and Pablo. If your dog is okay with other dogs, there's a possibility Andy and/or Astro will join! Please note I'm 5'0, I'm totally open to large/giant dogs, but preferably if they're good on leash (no leash reactivity, pulling, etc.), thanks so much for understanding! Rest assured your baby is in good hands! I'm a web designer so I need to be able to step away from my screen every so often for a break so going out for a walk is perfect for that! Since it's summer, it's preferred when the pavement isn't so hot. I have 3 dogs, two 8 year olds and one 15 year old. Our 8 year olds go on walks twice a day, once as soon we wake up, and again an hour after dinner. Our 15 year old is only allowed one short walk per day due to joint pain.

“We’ve never left our dog with anyone but immediate family and never with anyone for 12 days. Anusha managed our high energy dog perfectly and developed a rapport with him right away. She also managed my own anxiety by sending photos and videos twice daily to show me that our dog was relaxed and happy in her care. I can’t thank her enough for the care and attention she provided.”

“Sepia was very kind and generous to Bruno. She took great care of him and pampered him. She gave regular updates via messages, photos and videos. We were very happy with her and would highly recommend. Thanks Sepia!”

“Nayana is a great dog sitter for our anxious dog, Brando. I needed last minute coverage for our dog and she was willing to accommodate him. I feel comfortable leaving our family dog with Nayana anytime and know that he will be well cared for and loved. Communication during his stay was also fantastic!”

“Debra did a great job of making us and our dog, Skye, feel welcome. She sent us daily updates with pictures of Skye with her family or out taking walks. She was a last minute provider for us as our usual care person was not available for the dates we needed. She only keeps one guest dog at a time. Skye and her dog, Ginger, got along well.”

“Juliana took fantastic care of Max and Dora. She made sure they got plenty of walks, and we were so happy to see they had such a great time. We felt so confident leaving them with her and will definitely be back!”

“Our dog, Teddy, had a great time here. They were able to take him on short notice and sent us a lot of pictures and videos of him while he was there. Definitely recommend and will use them again.”

“I was lucky to find Michelle and Michael. My dog is young golden retriever with high energy. Michelle and Michael gave my dog plenty of cuddles and attention. They gave my dog long walk and played fetch with him. Michelle sent me updates frequently that helped relieve my separation anxiety. I couldn't be happier to have my dog stay with Michelle and Michael, who are really nice and caring people.”

“Pablo had such a great time with Sofiya! I got updates everyday about the furry friends he made, his adventures, and his health. I highly recommend and would choose Sofiya to dog sit Pablo in the future”

“Sabrina did a fantastic job of looking after Mili, our 8 year golden retriever while we were away for the weekend. She was always responsive and sent updates/pictures everyday. Mili had a great time and we will definitely use Sabrina’s services the next time we need a sitter.”

“We booked with Jade because our regular sitter was out of town, but she (and her husband) may become our go to! She did a thorough meet and greet the day after we contacted her, and asked tons of great questions. She walked us through her home and yard so we saw where the pups would be (very uncommon in my experience, so I appreciated it). Their home was neat, nothing extra that the pups would get into potentially. I loved that they (and their beds) came home clean, there was only 1 additional dog (other than their 2 small ones) in their care, and they kept to our pups regular schedule. Jade and her husband take a very professional approach to their care, even though they both work and Rover is not their main gig. Thank you Jade, I’m glad we kept looking and found you. 😊 the pups loved hanging with them.”

“Son and her family took great care of my 14 yr old dog Willow! I was able to relax during Thanksgiving knowing Willow was surrounded with company and cozy home. She came back much happier and relaxed compared to my last Rover experience with a different sitter. Willow didn’t want to leave when I picked her up, that’s how much she enjoyed her stay with Son.”

““Jennifer took excellent care of our dog while we were away. He can be a bit timid around strangers, but he warmed up to her quickly. She sent lots of photos throughout the day, which we really appreciated, and he even made a new friend!”

“Stasha was absolutely wonderful with my dogs. She kept us consistently updated with pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind, and it was clear from the photos and their behavior that they were being very well cared for. My dogs seemed genuinely happy and comfortable with her. She even went above and beyond by taking them to the park, which I really appreciated. Stasha was attentive, kind, and truly great with them. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again and would absolutely trust her with my dogs in the future.”


“Tracey is very sweet and responsive. Our Luna would get daily walks and we’d get daily photos and updates on her wellbeing. We’ve entrusted our dog with her a couple of times already and would continue to leave her under her care.”


“Amelia is wonderful! We were so happy to be able to be away and know that she's taking good care of our pup. The fact that our anxious little dog loves her says it all.”

“JD is great. He is one of the best dog sitters we’ve ever had. He is a good communicator and answers all texts immediately and updates you with many pics at least twice a day. You’ll never be unsure whether or not your dog is being taken care of. He’s amazing with all breeds and understood what it takes to keep our English Bulldog clean and maintained (as all owners of wrinkly dogs know what the daily regimen entails). Whether it’s a short stay or a longer boarding, JD is someone to trust!”

“My husky, Koda, had a fantastic time with Valentina & Stephen and their dog Luke. He ran and played in their gigantic, beautiful yard, got lots of attention and cuddles and was taken to the park and restaurants with them. They took excellent care of Koda I can't recommend Val and Stephen more highly. I've already booked another stay for Koda!”
