“I would highly recommend Anusha as a pet sitter! She took care of my doggie while I was on vacation with my family and I didn't have to worry about a thing. She sent us a lot of pictures, videos, and regular updates that made me feel at ease that my doggie was in great hands and enjoying himself. She was able to cater to my dog's specific personality and make him feel at home which I truly appreciate.”
“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.”
“This was our third time booking with Brian and as always we felt at ease knowing Ruby was basically going to stay with her second family. So grateful for the updates and care provided. We’ll absolutely book again!”
“Kinberley was a very welcoming and friendly host with us. She seems great with dogs and pets in general, and our pup seemed to have a great weekend with her and her family. Will definitely ask her for more help in the future!”

“I’m so grateful and blessed because Farbod and his wife took my pup, and treated her as their own. They were very responsible, updating me here and there about Poochie, which I totally appreciate, and helps when you are away from your pup. They are very responsive also. For sure, without a doubt, I will be a repeat client. 💕 Thank you Farbod and wife, can’t thank you guys enough!!”

“Nevin & her family were amazing! The moment I met them I knew I chose the right sitter for my fur baby! They are so sweet and welcoming! Nevin was amazing at sending frequent updates & I knew my cat was in great hands. They went above & beyond, I had immense peace of mind while I was away. I will continue to rebook any & every time I need a sitter with her & her family :) Mercury LOVED her time with them!”
“This was our first time leaving our two Labs with Todd. He took great care of our dogs. His yard is perfect for the dogs, and he also took them out for walks. The communications with Todd were great! He sent us lots of pictures, videos and updates. We will definitely use Todd again in the near future.”

“My pup was extremely comfortable with Diana! Diana is responsive, provides updates with photos, and took great care of my dog. I had no anxiety or nerves leaving my dog with her as he was in great hands!! 😊”
“Son, her husband and children did a wonderful job looking after PENNY. As soon as I met the family, I knew she was in good hands. They gave her an immense amount of love and attention. She went on adventures with them throughout the Bay Area and coastal regions. She had so much fun that it was like sending a 12 year old to summer camp! I would highly recommend Son and her family to take care of your little dog or a big dog when the time comes. They are also my friends now.”
About: I offer a unique blend of high energy adventure and structured, patient care. As an avid mountaineer and hiker, I’m the ideal match for high-energy dogs who need more than just a walk around the block; I love taking pups on local trails where they can truly explore. Beyond the trails, I have significant experience fostering animals, which has taught me how to read body language, manage transitions, and provide a calm environment for pets who might be nervous in a new space. My home is a dedicated 'maker' space where I’m constantly improving the environment, so you can rest assured your dog is in a secure, well-maintained, and supervised setting. Whether your dog is a senior who needs a quiet spot to nap or a young pup with energy to burn, I have the experience to make them feel right at home. My daily routine is built around active engagement and consistency. We start the day with an energizing morning walk followed by breakfast and a dedicated rest period. Since I spend a significant portion of my day at home, I can provide frequent potty breaks, backyard play, and constant companionship. Evenings are reserved for calm winding down and plenty of attention before bed to ensure everyone feels settled. Safety is my non-negotiable priority. My home is a fully pet-proofed environment with secure entryways and strictly supervised common areas. I maintain a 'paws-on' supervision policy, ensuring pets are never left unattended with unfamiliar toys or in new spaces. I believe trust is built through transparency, so I provide daily photo and video updates so you never have to wonder how your pet is doing.
“We had Pissamas take care of our 6 month old puppy for 5 nights. She did an amazing job! She kept us up to date with pictures and videos throughout the stay. She also put a sweater on our puppy when he was feeling cold. She went above and beyond and I would recommend her to anyone looking for a dogsitter.”
“Joshua did a wonderful job taking care of my mini Goldendoodle for nearly 5 days! It was the first time I had left my puppy with someone, and Joshua was very patient and gave Raja such attentive care! We appreciated the regular updates throughout the stay. I highly recommend Joshua and look forward to booking future stays for Raja!”

“Stephanie is the best cat sitter we’ve come across. She’s loving, caring and treats our pets as her own😃. She responds very fast to texts and is very proactive when it comes to sending pictures of our pets. PS: she’s an awesome pet photographer ❤️❤️. We had a situation where one of our pets was not behaving his usual self, we called Stephanie and she adjusted her schedule to be there earlier with our pets. She is really awesome and you can see that she genuinely cares for animals. 100% will work with her again and highly recommend her service! ❤️”
“We were leaving abroad for about two months. I’m very grateful to have found Weichen on Rover to take care of my cat. Weichen was very easy to communicate with and always thoughtful and considerate throughout the entire time. I really appreciated the care and attention given to my cat, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away. I’m very grateful for the help and would absolutely trust Weichen to take care of my cat again in the future. I highly recommend Weichen to anyone looking for a dependable and caring pet sitter on Rover.”
“Pallavi has been doing a wonderful job with our very anxious rescue dog who is afraid of everyone and everything. She has been extremely patient, kind and warm hearted with him and as a result he is now trusting her in a way that he only trusts his family. She is very reliable, is responsive to all our directions and comes with many great ideas of her own. We highly recommend Pallavi if you need a great dog sitter who will put your mind at ease when you are not able to be with your pet!”
“Angelina did a great job of taking care of our cat for about two days. She was amazing, kind, and available. It helped us out in a pinch and our cat enjoyed her stay there.”

“Venkata did a great job caring for my partly feral cat for a week while I was on vacation. She was very communicative and I can tell she really cares about animals. I hope to be able to book her again :)”
“Fiena and family were so good to our kitties! We had a remodel going on and I was a bit nervous how the cats would handle being boarded outside of our home. Fiena and family kept us updated, gave tons of attention to our cats, and sent us pictures and videos. Our cats returned to us and seemed completely at ease, which is saying something because one of them gets extremely nervous every time we take her anywhere in the car. Fiena was great at communication. Thank you Fiena and family!”

About: I've been an animal lover since day one and have been fortunate enough to have lived with many types of animals growing up. Dogs, cats, giant rabbits, toads, hermit crabs- you name it! I was an avid volunteer at the Santa Cruz SPCA for the last couple of years taking care of cats and dogs of all ages. I just lost my 15 year old dog and 22 year old cat in the last year so I am eager to be around animals again and treat them as I would my own.

“I am so happy Enzo got to spend time with Anusha. He was such a happy tired boy, by the time I picked him up he was ready for a long nap. She did a fantastic job providing me with videos of him playing in her beautiful backyard, snuggling and napping. And really happy she had another dog for Enzo to play with. She walked him and played fetch. I would absolutely give Anusha five stars ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ she was also very friendly and nice. 👍 I am sure Enzo will be happy to be dropped off to be puppy-sat again sometime soon.”
About: I’ve been pet sitting for friends, relatives and clients for years. Our house is their pets’ second home when they travel or need us. I can do the same for you, too. During the weekend I am mostly home. Weekdays, I partially work from office and home. There is plenty of time to spend time with your pet or walk them frequently. My husband works from home full time, so there is always one or two adults at home. We live in a single house with a fenced backyard, and there is a big greenbelt right outside our backyard ( see images). Therefore it’s very convenient for frequent walks or play time for your pet. They can also meet other dogs as well. As a family, we are comfortable with being around furry friends. We volunteer with my daughters at a local farm cleaning, caring, patting…. Love it! Our own cat-Zeytin is very calm and friendly. We love to play, walk, cuddle, spend some quiet time with our pet and guest pets and will do the same with yours, too. Looking forward to meeting you and your pet! Nevin
“Mimi is simply the best! She provides a loving home for all pets and our 8 month old pup Yogi has a safe, fun and comfortable stay and loved playing with Mimi, her family and some fur-iends there. I get frequent updates, photos and also capture of whimsical and funny moments which we look forward to. So glad to have found an awesome place and awesome humans to care for him while we’re at work!”
“Our dog had a good day with Joshua and Evangeline! They are nice people and sent cute pictures of the dog. I appreciated that they were able to accept a fairly last-minute care request too.”
“Our dog Lulu is so happy and well taken care of by David’s family. Todd is my main contact who is David’s dad. We love the video and pictures he sent us. Lulu took a walk in the park and played with their dog Lucky. Thank you for taking good care of Lulu.”
“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!”

About: I've cared for dogs at every life stage, energetic puppies, senior dogs needing extra gentleness, and dogs with special needs or medications. That range means I can adapt quickly to whatever your dog needs I'm currently between jobs and actively job hunting, which gives me a lot of flexibility. My schedule is open on weekdays, and on weekends I'm available in the mornings, so there's always a window that works for walks and playtime.

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life, growing up with both cats and dogs and developing a deep, natural connection with them.

My experience includes working with dogs of all ages and needs from energetic pups to senior dogs requiring extra patience and support. I’m comfortable administering medication, preparing specialized meals based on dietary needs, and ensuring each dog gets the right level of exercise, structure, and attention. I treat every dog as if they’re part of my family because I know that’s exactly what they are to you. I work from home therefore, your pup will have all my attention! Walks are done every three to four hours in a day. Food is given based on your scheduled requirements. Since I have a dog of my own your pup will have a partner to play with! There's a dog park near by for them to run and play in as well.

“Marisol is a sweetheart! My dog can be a little temperamental with new people, as far as willingness to walk. Marisol played with him when that was the case, and she took great pictures! When we came back he was very relaxed. Initially she brought someone with her in the house, but communication about it was quick and pleasant. We will definitely rebook her.”

“Yaisa was awesome for walking Toko and Arya when I was away at work during the day! She showed up on time and would take them for a nice long walk through the neighborhood. My pups were surprisingly well behaved with her and I loved all the pictures she would send me! They always looked happier on days after she visited. I will definitely book again when I need someone to check in with them if I'm out on a day trip or any long work weeks.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, houses, children, and more since I was 15. I’ve always loved animals as well as helping people out when they need it so this opened many opportunities for me at a young age to take care of pets for the people around me. Through networking with those people I was able to extend further and meet more people to provide care for. I have multiple years of experience dog sitting and walking, cat sitting, and house sitting in addition to raising my own pets over the years. There is no pet I couldn’t come to love and enjoy being around and I love how taking care of them can also enrich my own experiences and knowledge about animals! I can walk and care for small dogs to large dogs as long as they aren’t completely without basic training. I also have experience caring for elderly/sick dogs and cats including following specific feeding concerns and keeping up with medicines. I recently graduated college and am unemployed so I have plenty of time to spare for your pet! I am open to any walking length and am flexible with times and days. I also have plenty of experience house sitting and taking care of pets in their own homes/environment. I am great at keeping routines and following a schedule so caring for pets fits perfectly into my day! I take instructions and guidelines seriously when taking care of people’s pets so I make sure to follow them accordingly and carefully. I utilize whatever resources made available by clients to take better care of their pet. I also always make sure pets are comfortable with me and that I can properly understand and care for their needs! Whether a pet needs a slower walking pace, longer or shorter walks, specific food, or needs certain conditions to be comfortable or safe in their home I make sure to accommodate their needs.
About: Hii! I'm Brenna! I just graduated from Cal Poly SLO and am a soon-to-be elementary school teacher! I have 3 dogs of my own, so I understand how important it is to find someone to make your dog feel safe, happy, & well cared for! I'm active, reliable, and genuinely love spending time with animals. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, playing fetch, or just getting lots of love and attention, I'll make sure they have fun while you're away! My experience working with children has also taught me patience, responsibility, and how to adapt to different personalities (which dogs definitely have lol). As a recent Cal Poly graduate and incoming elementary school teacher, I have a very flexible summer schedule and enjoy staying active, so daily walks and outdoor time are already built into my routine. I make sure every pet gets plenty of attention, exercise, and care while sticking to their normal schedule so they feel comfortable and happy. Every pup has different needs, so I make sure each walk is tailored to their energy level and personality :) Whether your dog loves a long adventure or a slower stroll with lots of sniff breaks, I'm happy to match their pace. I always prioritize safety by using secure leashes and harnesses, staying aware of our surroundings, and following any instructions you provide.
“So happy with Abby! She walked our babies several days both this week and last, and she did a great job. She made me feel comfortable having to leave them for longer periods of time. Highly recommend working with her!”
About: I’ve been a pet owner my whole life, growing up I had three different dogs, Ruby, who died when I was 8, Ollie, and Zoe. I’ve had three fish, two mice, a lizard, and a hamster. Starting at age 12, I began dog and cat sitting for my neighbors and friends, and many families have relied on me for the care of their animals when they cannot be there. I also study animal science with a pre vet concentration in school so I'm extremely knowledgeable on how to correctly interact and care for pets I am currently a full time pet sitter, so sitting is my whole life at the moment. During the year I study animal science but when I am not working over the summer I love to read and bake! I always make sure front doors are closed or locked, pay special attention to certain rules and expectations of different pet owners, and never let animals out of my sight unless they are safely inside or in an enclosed outside space.
About: Nice to meet you! My name is Corina, and I'm a young professional, on a mission to build a bigger treat fund for my two fur babies!! My experience: I've spent 2 decades growing up alongside medium and small dogs, and in my adult life, I've gotten lots of practice cleaning up and caring for my three senior poodle mixes. After they passed in 2024, I dedicated all of my free time to being a dog foster parent at HSSV, which allowed me to meet tons of bouncy little puppies, old and young dogs with various personalities, as well as exposure to different behavioral issues, and the support needed to help dogs grow past them. My foster journey ended when I met Tomi from HSSV's foster program, and I couldn't let him go! And his sister, Mocha, joined us shortly after, when a relative could no longer care for her. They are both very gentle and shy in personality, and great company for any other smaller sized pups that are learning or looking for some friends! I'm available for dog walking on: Saturday: 8am-6pm Sunday: 8am-6pm And for Overnight & Daytime boarding: Friday 7pm - Sunday 8pm. We'll see you soon!! I live in a child-free home with a yard, and a large dog park across the street! I also have long walking trail nearby, so your pup will have lots to keep them busy during their stay! Dogs will be staying with my two 13 lbs. chi-mixes, who are both gentle and shy in nature.
About: I offer a unique blend of high energy adventure and structured, patient care. As an avid mountaineer and hiker, I’m the ideal match for high-energy dogs who need more than just a walk around the block; I love taking pups on local trails where they can truly explore. Beyond the trails, I have significant experience fostering animals, which has taught me how to read body language, manage transitions, and provide a calm environment for pets who might be nervous in a new space. My home is a dedicated 'maker' space where I’m constantly improving the environment, so you can rest assured your dog is in a secure, well-maintained, and supervised setting. Whether your dog is a senior who needs a quiet spot to nap or a young pup with energy to burn, I have the experience to make them feel right at home. My daily routine is built around active engagement and consistency. We start the day with an energizing morning walk followed by breakfast and a dedicated rest period. Since I spend a significant portion of my day at home, I can provide frequent potty breaks, backyard play, and constant companionship. Evenings are reserved for calm winding down and plenty of attention before bed to ensure everyone feels settled. Safety is my non-negotiable priority. My home is a fully pet-proofed environment with secure entryways and strictly supervised common areas. I maintain a 'paws-on' supervision policy, ensuring pets are never left unattended with unfamiliar toys or in new spaces. I believe trust is built through transparency, so I provide daily photo and video updates so you never have to wonder how your pet is doing.
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life, growing up with both cats and dogs and developing a deep, natural connection with them. I cared for and trained my own dog for 15 years, and after his passing, I adopted a close friend’s dog, who I now love and care for as my own. My experience includes working with dogs of all ages and needs from energetic pups to senior dogs requiring extra patience and support. I’m comfortable administering medication, preparing specialized meals based on dietary needs, and ensuring each dog gets the right level of exercise, structure, and attention. I treat every dog as if they’re part of my family because I know that’s exactly what they are to you. I work from home therefore, your pup will have all my attention! Walks are done every three to four hours in a day. Food is given based on your scheduled requirements. Since I have a dog of my own your pup will have a partner to play with! There's a dog park near by for them to run and play in as well.
About: I have over 15 years experience in pet care and dog training. I have cared for cats, dogs of all sizes, fish, and hermit crabs. I am very dependable, patient and a quick learner. Pets of all kinds gravitate to my loving nature and strong, responsible presence. My hours are extremely flexible and I am available almost always in case you need someone fast and dependable. I have lots of availability whenever you need. I care for my pets by making sure they have consistent routines, proper nutrition, and plenty of attention and exercise. I have both a cat and a dog, so I’m familiar with balancing different needs—my dog gets regular walks, playtime, and structured feeding, while my cat has a calm environment, fresh litter, and daily care and interaction on her terms. I pay close attention to their behavior and comfort, and I make sure they always feel safe, clean, and well cared for.

“I would highly recommend Anusha as a pet sitter! She took care of my doggie while I was on vacation with my family and I didn't have to worry about a thing. She sent us a lot of pictures, videos, and regular updates that made me feel at ease that my doggie was in great hands and enjoying himself. She was able to cater to my dog's specific personality and make him feel at home which I truly appreciate.”
“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.”
“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!”
“Nayana took care of Shiro with love and treated him like her family member. She followed all our instructions carefully and sent us important updates with photos throughout the care. Shiro seems happy and enjoyed the stay with her.”
“This was our first time leaving our two Labs with Todd. He took great care of our dogs. His yard is perfect for the dogs, and he also took them out for walks. The communications with Todd were great! He sent us lots of pictures, videos and updates. We will definitely use Todd again in the near future.”
“A wonderful experience boarding my dog here! Qi took great care of my pup, kept me updated, and made sure my dog felt comfortable and happy throughout the stay. Highly recommend!!”
“Son, her husband and children did a wonderful job looking after PENNY. As soon as I met the family, I knew she was in good hands. They gave her an immense amount of love and attention. She went on adventures with them throughout the Bay Area and coastal regions. She had so much fun that it was like sending a 12 year old to summer camp! I would highly recommend Son and her family to take care of your little dog or a big dog when the time comes. They are also my friends now.”
“It was my dog’s first time boarding, so he started anxious. But Sofiya took care of him wonderfully, I think he left with good memory!! Also, thank you for pictures of Sammy with big smile 😊”
About: I’ve have been walking and taking care of dogs for the last 5 years now. From puppies to senior dogs that require medication, or stroller walks I am a full time dog sitter/ tutor, so I’ll have time to walk and play with your pooches. I am available Monday’s, Tuesdays and Thursdays afternoons, Fridays and weekends. I have a fenced yard and 1 small male dog, (5.5 yrs old). I have 3 kids ( 20,18 and 15). My husband works from home 2 times a week as well.
“Steve loves dogs and is very experienced caring for them and making them feel comfortable away from home. Our large Shepherd/Rottie mix was well taking care off during a weeklong stay with daily walks and lots of playtime. It was clear from the many photos that he was having a great time, allowing us the peace and mind to enjoy our trip. Fantastic sitter - would absolutely recommend !”
“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.”
“Our pet was well taken care of. He seemed happy. He had lots of place to run around since they have a nice backyard. It was his first time socializing and boarding with other dogs and they made sure he was fine with all. Our pet didn't seem like he wanted to come back when we went to pick him up 😂 he surely misses his stay with them. I would 100 % recommend anyone to board your pets here. Nice and very clean place too. Norelvis and her husband is very kind and understanding. Great human beings!”
“Robin is amazing and extremely communicative. Toby loved staying with her and her family. I would highly recommend Robin and her family and look forward to the next booking. Thank you Robin!”
“My experience with Ron was amazing! This was my first time ever letting someone watch over my best friend(pup) and Ron made me feel really comfortable that I wouldn't have to worry about anything. He communicated and sent pictures every day which was awesome to see how my pup was doing. Ron treated my dog as if it was his own, he will take care of your animal and make sure your needs are taken cared of. Thank you again!!”
“Me and my dog Gus LOVE Jennifer. He’s gotten to stay with her two separate times now and we will definitely be going to her from now on. She has a great home with a great back yard and two other doggos for mine to play around with. She was extremely accommodating with all request and sent great pictures throughout the whole visit. I felt at ease knowing my fur child was safe with her and her family. Super thankful to have found Jennifer and would recommend her anyone!”
“Thank you Svetlana for making our Ollie part of your family and providing him with excellent care. He got lots of great exercise and cuddles and was a very happy boy! We appreciate you :-)”
