“Astrid and her family took such good care of my puppy! My puppy was very comfortable and happy staying with her and her family. She is knowledgeable, kind, and sent updates throughout his stay. Highly recommended her! Will be booking with her again. Thanks, Astrid!”
“Thank you Megan & Jenny! I needed to board my dog for one night with short notice and Megan & Jenny were able to board him. They responded quickly to my request and communicated with texts and photos during my dog's stay. My dog looked happy and it seems like he was well cared for. I will be contacting Megan & Jenny again for dog sitting and boarding.”
“Alex did a great job looking after our dog for 3 weeks. We received regular updates and pictures throughout the trip which made us feel at ease She is quick with communications when coordinating pickup/dropoff. Overall we had a great experience and would book with Alex again!”
“There’s no place like home but this is the closest place to it. Wonderful, warm, loving and caring home by a wonderful, loving and caring person. And her dear sweet mother too! 5 stars all around. I had to find a sitter on extreme short notice and I was so thrilled that Chawntea was willing to accept my pup with less than 12 hours notice and for a 13 day stay while I was out of the country. My pampered pooch was treated like her own and I honestly think she may have came back more spoiled than when I left her and after that much time away it was a wonderful feeling knowing she was cared for so well. She even gave her a bath! Definitely will be a repeat customer and looking forward to future play dates w/ Bailey. Thank you so much!”
“Suzanne is wonderful; so kind and assuring as it was our first time with Rover. If Benji could talk, I’m sure he would be begging to go back already!”
“We left the country and left our German Shepard our love , our precious Lexi with Chad . And while we traveled we felt she was safe,cozy,happy and comfortable even though she missed us . Thank you Chad .”
“I received a lot of communication, videos and pictures from Jonathan. It was clear that our Minnie was being taken good care of and having a good time. This made us feel so happy that we can go out of town and leave her in good hands!”
“Hy and Arlo watched my girl Priscilla for a week while I was out of the country and I will 100% have them watch her again. Pris is sometimes reactive to other dogs, so I'm always nervous leaving her in someone else's care (especially when I'm a flight away!), but Hy and Arlo had experience with this and I felt totally comfortable. I knew it was a good match from the first time I brought her over for a meet and greet. Pris just walked right in, rolled all over the carpet, and made herself at home. I can tell she was well loved and cared for in our absence! I highly recommend.”
“Amazing! Took such good care of our dog when we needed an overnight sitter on short notice. Great communication, lots of updates, pup came back happy & thoroughly entertained!”
“Meera was great to work with, very responsive and flexible and sent lots of photos. Took Luna for nice long hikes and was thoughtful enough to ask about allergies before giving any new treats. Would book again!”
“Mr. Badger had a great visit for a week with Erika while we were traveling. She took excellent care of Mr. B and sent great photos of their snuggle adventures during the week. We will definitely use Erika again.”
“Shannon was great at taking care of Roo during my trip. She was responsive, flexible with pick-up and drop-off times—which was helpful after some last-minute work meetings—sent adorable photos and videos, and made sure everything was okay. Roo had a wonderful time in her beautiful backyard during his stay.”
“Inkoo was a wonderful host for Tino, keeping him happy with lots of long walks, naps in the sun, and snuggles even on the bed. I loved her daily updates with pictures of him clearly relaxed and enjoying himself. Top notch care! I appreciate that she took my request with fairly short notice and was able to do a meet and greet the next day! We will definitely be reaching out to her again for future boarding needs.”
About: I have only pet-sat for friends doggos and cats in the past. Now that we are in a bigger place with a small yard, I’d love to work with you and your dogs. I will follow your directions and love your doggo right. I have had several Ridgebacks and Dobermans, a greyhound, and a viasla in my life and now love my two small ones - a rat terrier mix and a Pinchiweenie. I work from home and my desk is downstairs right by the back door so the door is open all day for my pets to go out as they please. I live in a quiet neighborhood with sidewalks for nice walkies around my neighborhood which has lots of grassy areas. I have time throughout the day for walks if needed and I make a point to have playtime with balls or toys throughout the day. We live just a few minutes from Oakland Airport in an 2 story townhome with a small (20 ft x 20ft), fully enclosed yard with areas for potties. It has great morning and early afternoon sun and I always have beds outside for sunning. The door is open for them to goes out as they want. We allow our pets in the couch and I office downstairs to keep an eye on the doggos. I have several water bowls around for hydration. I feed my girls a combination of kibble and homemade dog food, so “special meals” are not an issue for me.
“I just started fostering a dog, and I’m so scared to leave him with anyone. My dog just went through major hip surgery, and is on a strict medication schedule along with PT range of motion exercises and a strict bed rest. Beatryx took the time to meet me and ask exactly what I wanted during Pepe’s boarding. They asked all the right questions and assured me that Pepe would be in great care. The day when I had to leave Pepe, I ran into some complications at work and had to reschedule the drop off time. Beatryx was so understanding and flexible about everything. They sent me pictures every hour because they knew how anxious I was. Pepe was so happy that when we went to leave he had to go back and give Beatryx extra kisses. I would definitely leave Pepe with Beatryx again and again!”
“Faye was so great with my dog! She watched Pippin for almost a week and sent twice-daily photo updates. Pippin seemed happy and well cared for – we'd board her with Faye again in a heartbeat!”

“Alyssa is the BEST! Took such amazing care of my two girls and received pictures and updates multiple times a day! But most importantly, she got my two incredibly shy cats to come out of hiding (which, truly, no sitter has ever been able to do before)!”
“Cathy was great with our cats. She’s an animal person who takes pride in her work and understands how quirky cats can be. Our kitty needs medication and we are so glad she was able to be there to make sure he got his needs met. Thank you, Cathy!”
“Tinwa and Jieying were wonderful! They took great care of our cats, sent lots of updates and photos, and our cats clearly loved them. We'd definitely book with them again. Highly recommend!”
“Mellie was fantastic! I received prompt updates about each visit. I also received many pictures of my kitties! I appreciated her timely and thorough communication. Great sitter!”
“Due to some circumstances beyond my control, (being in the hospital, one of them) I needed a new “cat nanny” at the last minute. I contacted Halee via the Rover app, and she was able to start making visits within a day. She has been there for my two cats on a regular basis ever cents and has got my two overly cautious cats to warm up to her and has managed to take some really good close-up pictures of them even lying on her lap. She continues to do a wonderful job and I would have no problem recommending her to take care of someone else’s loving pets. Go Halee!”

“Vania was awesome!!! I needed someone last minute and she came through. She was great with my two pitbulls and treated them like queens. She was always on time and very communicative with pictures. I strongly recommend and will be using her in the future.”
“Maia was extremely good, sent pics every single day and was extremely responsive. I extended my trip two times and she was more than willing to add extra days. Definitely recommend!”
“Jonathan was great. I was on an 8 day deep sea fishing trip and had no way to communicate while out to sea. But when I made it back to civilization I was pleased to receive photos and videos from Jonathan from each day I was gone which set me at ease knowing my kitties were fine and in good hands. I'll definitely be using Jonathan again and would recommend him to anyone needing help with their furry friends.”
“Zen took care of my special needs cat, our house and our garden while we were traveling for three weeks. It was such a comfort to know she was there and to get regular updates from her as well. I recommend Zenzele without hesitation!”
“Stephanie did a great job taking care of our two cats. She sent us pictures each day she visited. She was very prompt and did exactly what we asked of her. Our cats' feeding is a bit complicated and she was very accomodating. We will definitely ask her to pet-sit again.”
“They did an okay job of taking care of our cat and communicating with us. Some pictures of our cat were resent to us, but our cat was totally fine when we got home; so all was fine. All in all, they provided the services that we asked for, but we wished we could have gotten fresh pictures of our cat each day rather than most days.”

“As a first time Rover user, Pearl was a great choice of sitter! On short notice she was very accommodating, and took great care of my puppy Hugo.

“Kai and I enjoyed Chawntea so much that we rebooked. As a first time furbaby mom it’s hard to just leave my baby with anyone. I am so glad to have found her.”
“Our recently adopted puppy had his first doggy daycare stay with Beatryx. Beatryx made sure that we felt comfortable that our puppy would be introduced to other pups in a measured and controlled way, and that Beatryx would give us updates about our pup's day. Sure enough we got plenty of picture updates, our pup made friends, and was happy as a clam when we picked him up.”
“Bernie had such a lovely time with the crew! Kim and Jeff were so lovely, patient, and kind to him. We received plenty of photo and text updates throughout the day, which made us feel so confident about leaving our fur baby with separation anxiety in their care. Highly recommend ?”
“Chad took excellent care of my young and energetic greyhound with a lot of separation anxiety. When I picked her up she was happy and excited, but she didn’t show any signs of distress. Prior to my dog’s stay at his home Chad had invited us over for a meet&greet and he took a lot of time to inquire about my dog’s character and behaviors, which made me very confident that things would be alright. Chad was also willing to accommodated my travel schedule. I am happy with the experience and hope he will be available next time I have to go out of town.”
“Pearl was an amazing sitter who took very good care of our dog, we had regular updates and they were so incredibly sweet with Clyde. They went the extra mile and we were so happy to find them last minute.”
“Lily is a wonderful sitter that loves my dog as if she were her own! I would definitely reach out to Lily if I need care for Nyxie again. You will not regret asking her to care for your beloved pup ❤️ Thanks so much Lily!”

“Baxter has stayed Andrea and her pups twice for daycare, with hopefully more days to come! Andrea has a gentle, kind spirit and seems very attuned to a dog's needs. At our meet & greet, she asked great questions about Baxter and his routines. She provided fun updates with pics a few times a day -- much appreciated!”

“Briana came through for us in a pinch, responding promptly to our daycare request and providing top-notch care for our pup. We felt completely at ease leaving her with Briana, especially knowing that she also had a furry friend in Banks. Briana's regular updates, with videos and pictures, kept us connected and reassured throughout Maple's stay. The extra gesture of taking Maple on a lengthy walk, keeping her occupied with toys and treats, speaks volumes about Briana's dedication and kindness. Maple returned home happy and thoroughly worn out—a thank you Briana!”
About: I grew up with 6 pit bulls, taking sun baths with them in my backyard. I’ve volunteered in SF SPCA and donate monthly. My best friend aka Herita is a rescue, she’s been with me for over 3 years now. I believe animals have taught me how to love unconditionally and responsibly. Calm, trust and safety are my top priorities. I hope you give me the chance to connect with you and your fur baby/ babies. I work from home. I normally take Hera on a walk every morning for about 30 mins. Come back and hit the gym. After that I’m free. I can always head over in the am, afternoon or evenings. I have a fenced yard, Herita is spayed and loves to play with other dogs. Her bff is a 3 y/o Doberman. Which I take care of a couple of times a week (take her out on walks and feed her)

“Jonathan was fantastic with Roman this weekend! His communication was excellent from start to finish. He kept me updated throughout the walk and sent photos and videos so I could see Roman having a great time. He also made sure Roman was fed and taken care of exactly as instructed. It's clear Jonathan genuinely cares about the pets he looks after, and I felt completely at ease knowing Roman was in good hands. Would absolutely book him again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable, attentive rover!”

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover with over 20 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs. I currently have a dog of my own and understand just how much our pets mean to us—they’re family. When I moved my dad to California so I could become his full-time caregiver, bringing his dog with us was never a question. He’s an important part of our family and daily life. I previously had another beloved dog from the age of 13 through 27, giving me experience with puppies, adult dogs, and seniors. I’m comfortable providing patient, attentive care and making sure each dog feels safe, loved, and well cared for while their owners are away. As someone who genuinely loves animals, I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet. Whether your dog needs a walk, playtime, or simply some extra companionship, I’ll treat them with the same care and attention I give my own. Pet care is already a natural part of my daily routine. I currently care for my own dog, so daily walks, feeding, playtime, and making sure he gets plenty of attention are already built into my schedule. Because I have a flexible schedule right now, I’m able to provide pets with extra attention, companionship, and care throughout the day rather than just fitting them in between other commitments. Whether it’s a walk, a drop-in visit, or keeping a pet company while their owner is away, I enjoy making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved. I believe every pet is happiest when their routine stays as consistent as possible. In a client’s home, I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medications (if needed), playtime, and any household rules. I also make sure pets receive plenty of attention, affection, and exercise while their owners are away. For walks and drop-in visits, I prioritize safety, communication, and making sure each pet’s individual needs are met. I understand that every animal has a different personality and comfort level, so I take the time to build trust and help them feel secure. As a pet owner myself, I know how important it is to have peace of mind when someone else is caring for your pet, and I treat every animal as if they were my own.

About: Hi, I’m Bri!🤗 My experience caring for my American Pit Bull Terrier for the past six years has definitely set me up to handle any sized pup. I personally house-trained her, leash-trained her, and taught her a couple fun tricks!

For drop-in visits, I’ll provide fresh food and water if needed, give them playtime, bathroom breaks, and lots of affection!☺️ I also keep owners updated with messages and photos so they can feel confident their pet is happy and well cared for while they’re away.

About: I grew up surrounded by pets and have spent my entire life caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities.

I provide regular photo and video updates for peace of mind, and I’m experienced with dogs of all temperaments, including anxious, seniors and special needs pets. Potty breaks will be according to however the owner pet would like to keep your dog comfortable and on routine.
About: I love dogs! At the end of the day your fur child will be happy and pooped, and you will be worry free knowing that they are in safe hands and well taken care of. Having pets of my own I am very well aware of the responsibilities that come with a dog. I know just exactly what is required of me, and what is expected. After a long hard day at work, you will be able to come home to a cuddle bug just waiting for your arrival. Or even while you are away on vacation, you can be rest assured knowing that your pet is in good hands! What comes with your pet visit: 1 on 1 attention full of love and care. 30 minutes or more of playtime at the dog park at least once per stay 15-20 min. walks (at least 3 times a day). Meals will be served morning and evening Positive reinforcement is a must! Please note that it is a MUST that your dog is neutered/spayed to prevent any accidents. And let me know of any problem behaviors so I can best understand your dog's needs and how to approach it.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats of different kinds. My love for pets have been for as long as I can remember! Growing up, I have personally cared for medium-sized dogs, specifically a German shepherd and Pitbull, and also 3 different cats. I recently have lived in a house with 5 pit bulls and helped walk, feed and bathe each one for over a year. I currently do not own a pet, but am itching to own one soon. For now, I am happy to assist in bringing comfort and joy into your pet’s life. Anything to help make a family's home easier is what I strive for. I am currently working full time, but have a flexible work schedule that can accommodate to feeding/walking times. I am looking for anyone interested in board & care at my home (limit 2 dogs), occasional overnight or drop in pet-sitting, dog walks, feeding and/or bathing care for your pet. I live in a house with a fenced yard. I offer a safe space to care for your pet. I live with my husband who is also a pet lover. It will help us get out of the house for necessary walks and overall care. Please let me know if your dog is friendly with other dogs as I can host up to two dogs at a time.
About: I am very good at training puppies. And have grown up around all different kinds of animals my whole life, from dogs to horses to turtles to chicken and pigs. I am home every day and can pay attention to your pet for as long as you need. And also need to earn some extra cash to help with everyday living. I have a beautiful 9 year old daughter. So the extra cash really helps out. THANK YOU! My availability is very much open to fit to your schedule, I'm currently not working so I can tend to your pets needs as much as they want. I don't leave any pets unattended when let outside. I usually will hang out in the backyard with them. And I will always make sure that they are comfortable and everything is taken care of anytime before I leave.

“Astrid and her family took such good care of my puppy! My puppy was very comfortable and happy staying with her and her family. She is knowledgeable, kind, and sent updates throughout his stay. Highly recommended her! Will be booking with her again. Thanks, Astrid!”
“Thank you Megan & Jenny! I needed to board my dog for one night with short notice and Megan & Jenny were able to board him. They responded quickly to my request and communicated with texts and photos during my dog's stay. My dog looked happy and it seems like he was well cared for. I will be contacting Megan & Jenny again for dog sitting and boarding.”
“Alex did a great job looking after our dog for 3 weeks. We received regular updates and pictures throughout the trip which made us feel at ease She is quick with communications when coordinating pickup/dropoff. Overall we had a great experience and would book with Alex again!”
“We left the country and left our German Shepard our love , our precious Lexi with Chad . And while we traveled we felt she was safe,cozy,happy and comfortable even though she missed us . Thank you Chad .”
“I received a lot of communication, videos and pictures from Jonathan. It was clear that our Minnie was being taken good care of and having a good time. This made us feel so happy that we can go out of town and leave her in good hands!”
“Hy and Arlo watched my girl Priscilla for a week while I was out of the country and I will 100% have them watch her again. Pris is sometimes reactive to other dogs, so I'm always nervous leaving her in someone else's care (especially when I'm a flight away!), but Hy and Arlo had experience with this and I felt totally comfortable. I knew it was a good match from the first time I brought her over for a meet and greet. Pris just walked right in, rolled all over the carpet, and made herself at home. I can tell she was well loved and cared for in our absence! I highly recommend.”
“Meera was great to work with, very responsive and flexible and sent lots of photos. Took Luna for nice long hikes and was thoughtful enough to ask about allergies before giving any new treats. Would book again!”
“Inkoo was a wonderful host for Tino, keeping him happy with lots of long walks, naps in the sun, and snuggles even on the bed. I loved her daily updates with pictures of him clearly relaxed and enjoying himself. Top notch care! I appreciate that she took my request with fairly short notice and was able to do a meet and greet the next day! We will definitely be reaching out to her again for future boarding needs.”
About: I have only pet-sat for friends doggos and cats in the past. Now that we are in a bigger place with a small yard, I’d love to work with you and your dogs. I will follow your directions and love your doggo right. I have had several Ridgebacks and Dobermans, a greyhound, and a viasla in my life and now love my two small ones - a rat terrier mix and a Pinchiweenie. I work from home and my desk is downstairs right by the back door so the door is open all day for my pets to go out as they please. I live in a quiet neighborhood with sidewalks for nice walkies around my neighborhood which has lots of grassy areas. I have time throughout the day for walks if needed and I make a point to have playtime with balls or toys throughout the day. We live just a few minutes from Oakland Airport in an 2 story townhome with a small (20 ft x 20ft), fully enclosed yard with areas for potties. It has great morning and early afternoon sun and I always have beds outside for sunning. The door is open for them to goes out as they want. We allow our pets in the couch and I office downstairs to keep an eye on the doggos. I have several water bowls around for hydration. I feed my girls a combination of kibble and homemade dog food, so “special meals” are not an issue for me.
“I just started fostering a dog, and I’m so scared to leave him with anyone. My dog just went through major hip surgery, and is on a strict medication schedule along with PT range of motion exercises and a strict bed rest. Beatryx took the time to meet me and ask exactly what I wanted during Pepe’s boarding. They asked all the right questions and assured me that Pepe would be in great care. The day when I had to leave Pepe, I ran into some complications at work and had to reschedule the drop off time. Beatryx was so understanding and flexible about everything. They sent me pictures every hour because they knew how anxious I was. Pepe was so happy that when we went to leave he had to go back and give Beatryx extra kisses. I would definitely leave Pepe with Beatryx again and again!”
“Working with Kennia was a fantastic experience! She was very accommodating, communicative, sent adorable photos/videos, and we could tell that Max had a blast staying with her for the week. I would feel supremely confident recommending her to any other pet owner friends and we are looking forward to working with her again in the future! Truly a 10/10 experience and we could tell how much Max enjoyed his time with her once we got him back. You won't regret having her take care of your pet!”
“Kristen and Ryan were very welcoming of our pup! They were understanding of her nuances and helped her adjust to a new environment fast. They have a nice spacious home with a big backyard that our dog loved relaxing in. Kristen and Ryan were very communicative throughout the stay and sent daily updates with photos. 100% recommend!”
“Sharon is super welcoming, She invited us in to her space for the meet and greet and when we dropped Arl off. Arl has some fear issues and Sharon is very gentle. I highly recommend her care!”
“Bibo was amazing! Very communicative and flexible when introducing the dogs before boarding. They provided pictures and updates over the stay, and their pup Mayca was a great host to Kuma!”
“Mandar and his family do an amazing job taking care of my Golden Retriever Teddy. He is an older dog that requires special care and medication. Mandar always keeps me updated on how he is doing and sends photos. I am so grateful that I found Mandar because I know he welcomes Teddy into his home and treats him like his own dog. Highly recommend!”
“Truly such a great experience for my dog. Stephanie was so nice and flexible with my schedule. I needed a last min booking and Stephanie truly went above and beyond to help accommodate and give my dog a great time. She exposed my pup to some new activities, like bike riding, which he loved!! It was also my pups birthday when she took care of him and she even gave him a little homemade peanut butter lick mat to celebrate. You won’t regret booking with Stephanie if you’re looking for someone to treat your pup like her own! :)”
“Kendal was so great with Raven and very easy to work with. She got Raven to relax and cuddle by day 2 of knowing her which is a huge deal for our anxious little rescue baby!”
