Shobi, her husband, and girls took great care of her. When I picked her up, she seemed relaxed and happy. We will for sure book more stays with Shobi and her lovely family!”

As a bonus, my cat was still afraid to meet new people, but Jordan was very patient with her and by the end of my (short) trip, she was comfortable enough with her to sit on her lap. I cannot say how much I appreciate Jordan’s time and how nice it was to come home to a cat that was relaxed and just happy to see me.”

“I was very impressed with G.'s visits. My cat is very skittish but when I returned from my trip, she was calm so I think G. did nothing to cause anxiety. In addition, in one of her daily reports, G. pointed out something about the cat's feeding habits. I was aware of this but felt that it was very responsible of G. to notice it after just a couple of days and bring it to my attention. I will be calling G. the next time I have a trip planned. Thank you G. for being so conscientious.”

About: I've had the joy of living with both cats and dogs and have cared for everything from playful puppies to senior dogs with special needs. I can communicate in Russian or use American Sign Language if your dog responds better to those. I love teaching new tricks and enjoy when dogs take me out for walks or runs. I'm also open to caring for cats and other pets. Let’s make sure your furry friends get the best care and have a blast while you’re away! Since I work from home, I’m super flexible and can accommodate your pet's needs and schedule. I’m available between 10am and 8pm, so let’s chat about what works best for you and your furry friend! In the client's home, I start by chatting with the owner to learn about their pet's needs and routine. Then, I keep them comfortable and happy with plenty of playtime, exercise, and love while keeping the owner updated.

He was absolutely flexible adapting his apartment for Max big size and all his belongings (litter, scratchers, food containers, carrier, blankets, toys), so Max would have a less stressful stay. John was effectively communicating with us, and always willing to do his best to ensure Max will have a great time and we will know as much as possible about Max’s last updates. We are really thankful with John for taking care of Max, following his food and water routine over the heat wave, for cleaning his eyes and for sending us all the pictures and updates every day, so we will enjoy our short trip knowing Max was safe and happy. Thank you so much John, we’ll see you next time! Blessings from the 3 of us!”

About: Animals have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up rescuing and caring for cats and dogs, and my family has always shared our home with pets. Over the years, I’ve cared for the pets of friends and neighbours, and I’ve also trained our family dog in basic commands. My calm and gentle nature helps me connect easily with cats—earning their trust and providing comfort—while my active side makes me a great match for energetic dogs. I love hiking, long walks, and outdoor play, giving dogs both exercise and mental stimulation. No matter the pet, I focus on making them feel safe, loved, and understood, always respecting their unique personalities and needs. I work remotely with a team based in Europe, which gives me a very flexible schedule and plenty of free time throughout the day to provide pets with exercise, attention, and care. I provide pet care both in my home and in the pet parent’s home, always making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I follow each pet’s usual routine and any specific instructions closely. Whenever possible, I also like to meet pets beforehand to get to know their personality, habits, and needs.

My middle school kids and friendly Bernedoodle love having dog guests around—we’ll make sure your pup feels safe, loved, and right at home! I work from home, so I’m around all day to keep your pup company. Our routine usually includes morning and evening walks around the neighborhood or nearby parks, giving the dogs plenty of exercise and sniff time. During the day, they hang out with me in the house or relax in our fenced backyard—napping, playing, or just keeping me company while I work. It’s a calm, happy environment with lots of love and attention throughout the day. Your dog’s comfort and safety are always my top priority. Our home is a single-family house with a securely fenced backyard where dogs can play safely under supervision. Indoors, dogs are welcome to roam freely, nap on comfy spots, and be part of our daily life. I take time to understand each dog’s needs and routine—whether it’s feeding schedule, favorite toys, or quiet time preferences—so they can settle in smoothly. I also keep a close eye on playtime to make sure all dogs feel comfortable and relaxed. With my friendly Bernedoodle and caring middle-school kids, your pup will be surrounded by gentle company, calm energy, and plenty of affection. You can trust that they’ll be cared for just like one of our own.

Renz is very easy to coordinate with, follows all my instructions, troubleshoots intelligently, is skilled in obedience training, and seems to really enjoy learning Pepper’s needs. He has access to a variety of dog parks and trails, including agility structures, so I know Pepper is always going to have fun and be stimulated. Highly recommend!”

About: Our family has had a black lab/boxer for over 8 years, and I grew up with dogs in the household. I am active and we love to take our pup on walks, to the park, and play around the family. Would love to extend my care to your dog, as a home away from home or puppy playdate treat. I'm currently a stay at home mom and freelance artist, so available for flexible doggy day care and overnight boarding. Please reach out for initial meet and greet or to schedule. We have a fenced in yard, active middle aged dog who gets along great with all size pups, and a loving home with 3 girls who also love animals.

I spend most days at home, so I’m super flexible when it comes to scheduling and can dedicate plenty of time to looking after your pup! I have a small, fenced in back yard in a quiet neighborhood for quick potty breaks throughout the day, or just some fresh air and sunbathing for your pup! My dog, Franklin, is a bit on the older side, but enjoys having friends to chill with him!

About: Hi! I’m Ally, an animal lover with professional animal care experience ranging from pet boarding facilities to the Oakland Zoo. My approach is calm, attentive, patient, and individualized to each animal. Animals have always been a central part of my life. I became vegetarian as a child because of my love for animals, and that value continues to guide both my personal and professional life today. Professionally, I previously worked at a pet boarding facility where I handled client communication, maintained veterinary and care records, administered medications, monitored feeding and intake, and provided daily hands-on animal care. I also worked as a Zookeeper Aide at the Oakland Zoo, where I helped prepare specialized diets and support daily animal care operations in a fast-paced environment. I’m currently completing a Master’s degree in Environmental Health Sciences at Columbia University, so I’m especially detail-oriented, responsible, communicative, and reliable. What You Can Expect From Me: -Reliability, reliability, reliability! ☺️ -Regular communication, updates, and photos -Calm, patient handling style -Attention to detailed feeding and care instructions -Lots of affection, play, and individualized attention Previous Experience: -Zookeeper Aide at Oakland Zoo -Behavioral Health worker at a California primate center -Animal care work at research centers -Wildlife rehabilitation and sanctuary volunteer experience -Pet sitting experience with a wide range of pet breeds and personalities -Pet First Aid and CPR certified I'm currently working remotely on my capstone project to finish my Master's degree, which means my schedule is quite flexible to care for your fur babies! I do have my own cat so I need to take his own care into account when considering bookings. I prioritize creating a calm, safe, and consistent environment for every pet in their own home. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding, walks, medication, routines, and household rules while paying close attention to behavior, appetite, and overall wellbeing. I understand that every animal has a different comfort level and personality, so I approach each pet with patience, attentiveness, and respect for their space and routine.

About: I have extensive hands-on experience caring for dogs through both volunteer fostering and dog sitting for friends and family. I fostered 16 dogs total through Coppers Dream Rescue, gaining experience with a variety of personalities, energy levels, and individual care needs. I’ve also volunteered as a dog walker with Best Friends Animal Society and Westside German Shepherd Rescue. As a result, I’ve developed a patient, attentive, and responsible approach to dog care. My goal is to ensure every dog feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while they’re in my care. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to accommodate dog care needs throughout the day. I can work with pet parents to find a schedule that fits their routine. I prefer to walk dogs in quiet, low-traffic neighborhood routes. Safety is my highest priority, and I want to ensure a dog feels secure in whatever environment they are in.

About: 🔆Welcome to a small part of my life I started by taking care of my neighbors’ pets as a hobby, which helped me discover how much I enjoy this work. Later, I found the Rover app, where I saw a great opportunity to care for and meet dogs of different breeds. Currently, I have two years of experience providing love and care to pets as if they were part of my family. I deeply love animals and have always felt a special connection with them. I carry my dog, Cejas, who passed away, in my heart forever, and her memory inspires me to provide the best care to the pets that come into my home. I’m passionate about caring for pets with special needs, whether it’s administering medications or providing appropriate therapies for their physical and mental well-being. I have experience with different breeds and temperaments, so I easily adapt to each pet’s unique needs. Looking for a quiet and exclusive stay for your pet? Your furry friend will find a true haven of peace here. My home is clean, calm, and completely free of loud noises. I only accept one family at a time, ensuring a stress free and distraction free environment. I’m home all the time, so your pet will never be alone. Perfect for sensitive pets or those who simply need rest and tranquility. I speak Spanish, I am currently studying English📒 I’m patient, responsible, organized, flexible, and, above all, trustworthy. I love walking and exploring the outdoors, which makes walks with your furry friends one of my favorite moments of the day. They also help me by providing exercise and breaking me out of my daily routine. I truly enjoy sharing my life with the company of pets. I offer a warm, cozy, and safe environment where your pet will feel loved and protected. I’ll keep you informed with updates through the Rover card, as well as photos and videos during their stay, so you’ll always know how your furry friend is doing. Your pets can roam freely throughout the house, and during the night, when it’s time to sleep, they are monitored through my camera. 🐱It will be a pleasure! I’m available seven days a week to host, care for, and walk your pets. I’m also open to handling last-minute requests, as long as I don’t have prior bookings. I provide exclusivity by only caring for one pet per day or pets from the same family. My husband helps keep the pets entertained during their stay. I love taking long walks, and I’ll always send you updates through Rover cards. Your pet will be safe and comfortable in a warm and welcoming environment. In my home, I’ve created a secure, risk-free space where your furry friend can feel right at home. I always stay in the same space as the pet, providing constant attention and supervision to ensure their well-being at all times. My neighborhood is gated and pet-friendly, with plenty of green areas, making walks perfect and super safe for both large and small pets. For my pet boarding service, whether for the day or overnight, I prioritize hygiene and a great experience. Before each reservation, my home is thoroughly disinfected, vacuumed, and mopped. I love welcoming pets into a clean and well-prepared space to ensure their stay is comfortable and enjoyable. 🐕‍🦺In my client's home, I follow their specific instructions regarding feeding, walking, and any other care routines they have in place. I’m a flexible, adaptable and energetic person

About: Animals have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up rescuing and caring for cats and dogs, and my family has always shared our home with pets. Over the years, I’ve cared for the pets of friends and neighbours, and I’ve also trained our family dog in basic commands. My calm and gentle nature helps me connect easily with cats—earning their trust and providing comfort—while my active side makes me a great match for energetic dogs. I love hiking, long walks, and outdoor play, giving dogs both exercise and mental stimulation. No matter the pet, I focus on making them feel safe, loved, and understood, always respecting their unique personalities and needs. I work remotely with a team based in Europe, which gives me a very flexible schedule and plenty of free time throughout the day to provide pets with exercise, attention, and care. I provide pet care both in my home and in the pet parent’s home, always making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I follow each pet’s usual routine and any specific instructions closely. Whenever possible, I also like to meet pets beforehand to get to know their personality, habits, and needs.

About: My passion for pets and commitment to their well-being, have helped me acquire invaluable experience caring for dogs of all ages and temperaments. From energetic puppies who can’t get enough playtime to seniors who prefer a cozy spot by the window, I tailor my approach to meet each dog's unique needs. I understand the importance of routine, which is why I prioritize punctual feeding and walking schedules. For many dogs, these moments are the highlights of their day, and I strive to make every experience enjoyable and fulfilling. Whether it’s hiking for the adventurous or gentle leash walks for those who like to take it easy, I’m dedicated to ensuring their happiness and comfort during their time apart from their owners. Additionally, I'm attentive to the emotional needs of pets who require extra affection and support. I take pride in creating a nurturing environment that helps ease their anxiety and keeps them engaged and content while their family is away. With my pet care experience, you can trust that your furry family members will receive the love, attention, and care they deserve! My schedule allows me to be flexible enough to adapt to your pets schedule! Thursday nights are when I'm on a tighter schedule but I'm glad to talk this over! I make sure to make their time away from you as close to their daily routine as possible. I make sure to know their likes and dislike to make them feel as safe and comfortable as possible. There are some dogs that do not feel good in loud and busy areas. So I make sure to go on walk them in quieter places. Also, if I am house sitting some prefer to co-sleep and I am comfortable doing so. Every pet care experience is catered to your and your pets liking :)

About: I grew up with dogs in the family, so caring for them is second nature. My daughters share that love, and our whole house lights up when there's a dog in it. We travel too much to have one of our own, which is why we'd rather build lasting relationships with a few special dogs whose families need occasional help. I'm semi-retired with a fully flexible schedule, and I only take one or two bookings a month, so your dog gets my attention for the vast majority of each day. And I never book more than one dog at a time. I'm super active myself, so I love taking dogs on hikes, and on trail runs if they're up for it. Whatever your dog's energy level, they'll come home tired from exercising and happy from a day of new smells. I charge more than most sitters here, and the reason is simple: your dog gets a whole family's attention, real daily workouts, playmates, and steady, caring company from an experienced handler. Every dollar goes to my daughters — half as pay for the help they provide, half into their college funds. I'm happy (and actually prefer) to do a meet and greet at my house prior to confirming a booking. If we sound like the right fit for your pup, then please reach out! **For the Dog Walking service listed at $120/walk** — that's not for the standard 30-minute Rover walk, but rather up to 120 minutes/10 miles of hiking/trail running. I'd pick up and put your pup in the back of my SUV, drive to a preserve nearby (Foothill Park in Palo Alto, for example), and then drop your pup off. Given I'm semi-retired and work from home on a flexible schedule, pet care can always fit naturally into my whole day — not just the edges of it. Your dog won't be waiting for attention: mornings can start with a long walk/hike or run and midday means play and company rather than an empty house. On the weekends, after school, on holidays, and during summer break, my daughters will shower your pup with love and attention. Safety comes first. We live on a large lot in Los Altos with fully fenced front and back yards, so there's plenty of secure space to play and explore. We're minutes from the foothills, with easy access to great hiking trails, and I have the proper equipment to transport your pup safely. In our home, your dog is treated as part of the family: supervised play, a consistent routine for meals, walks, and rest, and someone home all day, so dogs are never alone. On outings, dogs stay leashed unless you've told me otherwise, and I match the pace and distance to your dog's fitness and the weather, while ensuring your dog is hydrated. I'm happy to follow your routine exactly — feeding, medications, sleeping arrangements, house rules, etc. You'll get regular photo and video updates, so you always know your pup is safe and happy.

“Joy was both skillful and easygoing when we left our dog Lila with her and her family. I got photos of Lila snuggling on the sofa, and Joy had a great outdoor space for her dogs and mine to play.”

“We had a very busy weekend where our Chaweenie, Miso, would have had to be alone for large stretches, or travel non-stop in a car all day. So we decided to find a "surrogate family" for the weekend. Shobi, her husband, and girls took great care of her. When I picked her up, she seemed relaxed and happy. We will for sure book more stays with Shobi and her lovely family!”

“Margaret takes great care of our pup when he stays over. She's very knowledgable and experienced with dogs and their behavior and language, and she helps train and work on his behavior. He's always so well behaved when he comes home, and he's happy in all the videos and photos she sends. She's very communicative and sends lots of updates. We're happy to have found someone who can watch him when we're gone.”

“Yasemin was a wonderful sitter! She and her family showered my pup with love and attention from the minute they met and during his entire stay. Very mindful of his care and she sent lots of photos/videos which made me feel very comfortable that my dog was well taken care of. I would gladly take my dog to Yasemin again, and know he would love to stay with her and her family again!🤗🐶”
