“This was the first time we booked with Nina and Leo and we were very happy! Leo sent many photos of our pups each day of our trip, along with updates on how they were adjusting to their new surroundings and how they were eating. We were very pleased with the communication and felt our pets were in good hands and well-loved while we were out of town. I would definitely recommend and would book again. Thanks Nina and Leo!”
“This was Yogi’s first time away from home, and Cynthia made sure he was well cared for. She sent us lots of updates (which we requested) and Yogi looked so happy the whole time. We weren’t sure how he’d do since we only adopted him a few months ago, but he seemed to have such a great time! Would book again!”
“Shannon was absolutely wonderful with Dobby. I was able to relax on my vacation knowing my dog was having a vacation of his own with Apollo. She gave frequent updates with plenty of photos and was very communicative during the stay. I couldn’t recommend her enough.”
“Chelsea was very responsive and sent lots of pictures of our dog, which helped reassure us that he was doing well without us. He got lots of cuddles and attention while in her care.”
“Martina and her family are fabulous sitters! We got lots of updates and photos and the boys were so well behaved when we picked them up. We could tell they gave them lots of attention and walks and they were very happy during their stay. Strongly recommend!”
“I can’t say enough great things about Jas! He was able to care for our dog Murphy last minute. He was very responsive, sent updates and pictures throughout our whole trip. The pictures of Murphy showed how relaxed and happy he was! Pretty sure Murph came back smelling better 😆 We will definitely be using Jas again.”
“I’m going on vacation in May so did an overnight test with Karla to see how the pups handled. Surprisingly I had separation anxiety but Karla was perfect. She sent me updates and photos. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience and I can go on vacation with peace of mind. Thank you Karla!!!”
“Deborah did a fantastic job caring for my little guy, Boba. As it's my first time using Rover, she shared consistent updates with photos/videos, which put my mind at ease. She went above and beyond, took him on walks/parks, and made Boba feel well cared for and happy. Boba had the time of his life under Deborah's care.”
“Yi did a fantastic job with our dog Ozzie and sent wonderful photos each day. She made sure our crazy guy was happy and got along with other dogs. We couldn't have had better care for him!”
“Ruo was a fantastic sitter. Very responsive, and photos every day. We saw Derby and Lou going for long walks and making new dog friends. I always know they had a good time when they are tired and calm coming home. Thanks so much Ruo!”
“Siobhan and Guillermo took great care of Chutney - they shared some pics from her stay, and she came home tired which is always a good sign! We have already booked with them again and plan to use continuously in the future.”
About: I may be new to dog sitting, but I’m definitely not new to being a dog person! 🐶💗 I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and truly can’t imagine life without them. I’m so excited to welcome some furry friends into my home and treat them like part of the family while they’re here. Whether your pup loves long walks, playtime, couch cuddles, or just having someone nearby, I’ll make sure they get plenty of love and attention. I can’t wait to meet your four-legged best friend! 🐾 I’m currently working on the weekdays but free on weekends. I’m mostly home during the weekends or outside hiking. Would love for a furry friend to join me on my hikes and lounge with me while watching Netflix! I live with my boyfriend and he will be around but I will be responsible for your pup! ☺️ I currently live in an apartment with my boyfriend Zach! I will be able to provide tons of potty breaks for your furry friend! I also would be around for multiple walks a day. Dogs are welcome on the bed when it comes to sleeping!
“Joyce took amazing care of our pupper: taking him for plenty of walks and to the parks, giving him (and us ideas for) great king treats, and sending a bunch of update photos and videos. 11/10. Couldn’t recommend more.”
About: Dogs have been a big part of our lives. We adopted Bruno, our beloved Labrador Retriever, with whom we spent 11 years until he fought bravely with cancer but could not win. Bruno socialized me to his friends like Mastiffs, German Shepherds, Corgis, Golden Retrievers and many more and helped me understand that each dog, irrespective of his breed, has a unique personality and temperament. Thus, please do tell us about your dogs unique traits and his phobias so that we can make him feel at home. This is important for us to know as dogs undergo huge stress to be away from their home. After Bruno passed away, we adopted Rex, Labrador Retriever, who has helped us heal and made us realize how important dogs are in our lives! Both, me and my wife WFH and have flexible working schedule. So one of us will be at home to take care of the pack. We have Rex, a Labrador Retreiver, who goes on walks 2x times a day for 2-3 miles everyday. If the dog is staying with us, based on his needs, he can join us on our walks. Plus, we have a fully fenced backyard for dogs to play and run freely. Often, we take break from our work and play with our dog in the backyard or go for a small 5-10 min walk outside our home. For everyone’s safety, the dog should get along with kids and other dogs. Please let us know if there are any health issues and/or food allergies. My wife and I have experience caring for senior dogs, and both of us are comfortable administering medications as needed.
“Anna is incredible. As a helicopter mom myself, I really appreciate and feel extremely lucky to have found Anna. She is very responsive, sent pics and updates about Oliver during his half day trial and his sleepover this weekend. She is flexible with time and a really nice person. We look forward to have Oliver’s next stay with Anna, we know he will be in very good hands ❤️🥰”
“Katherine was incredibly attentive to our senior dog and made him feel at home! We are grateful for her many updates and great communication, and we know our dog would love to stay with her again!”
“Pouneh is a wonderful dog sitter. You can tell she truly loves her job and the pups she cares for. She was an excellent communicator with us as well. We are grateful to have found her and will definitely book with her again in the future.”
“Joey spent 2 and a half weeks with Mario. It went very well. Mario sent a lot of photos - it was like Joey was at summer camp! Mario is really good with dogs and easy to work with... Highly recommend!”

Prices are estimates per visit for 1 cat. Pricing may vary based on your search and includes a booking fee of 11%.
About: I recently cared for a 20-year-old senior cat for a week while his owner was out of town. He needed medication applied to his ears twice a day, along with a consistent feeding and care routine. I made sure he had fresh wet and dry food, clean water, and a clean litter box. He also enjoyed spending time outside in the backyard, so I would let him explore while staying with him for companionship and supervision. While most of my experience has been with dogs, I’m comfortable providing attentive, reliable care for cats as well and understand that senior pets can have very specific routines and needs.
“I had to go out of town last minute, and I was so happy Huei was available. My cat warmed up to her immediately, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. Huei took great care of her, asked questions, and kept me updated throughout the stay. I really appreciated her attentiveness and would definitely trust her with my cat again!”
“Just wanted to rave about Julia some more. Charming to communicate with, responsible and loving toward the cats. Would make her my forever Cat Sitter but I moved away. Julia is the best.”
“Leonie dropped in to visit my two cats with less than a week's notice. She shared photos and a short status update during her visits and when I returned, their areas were as tidy as I'd left them.”
“Zolfar was very gentle and sweet with the kits. She was very accommodating in meeting us before her first sit, followed all instructions, send photos and asked questions along the way. Definitely we’d like to have Zolfar back!”
“Highly recommend their service! The whole experience is smooth and they took lots of photos and kept me updated for each visit. My cat has a some behavior problem of popping outside, they took care of it professionally.”
“Jonah took wonderful care of our cat, Nali, while we were gone for a month. They were caring, communicative, and responsible. We will definitely reach out to them the next time we are out of town!”
“Criss is communicative, punctual, responsible, and gave me great, thorough updates on how Eli was doing! She was absolutely fantastic. I highly recommend her, and plan on booking her again in the future.”
About: Before my current employment I worked at a pet boarding facility that included cats for over 4 years. Additionally, I have 3 of my own cats that I raised since they were kittens. I have tons of experience handling cats with all different kinds of temperaments and personalities. I also have experience administering medications. Currently I work fully remote so my schedule is very flexible and I am even more open on the weekends and can accept last minute bookings. I know leaving your cats can be stressful for you and for them which is why I want to make the experience as stress free and calm as possible. I adore cats and I would love to nurture a bond with yours. (:
About: Since I was a child I always had dogs with me, I think they are the noblest creatures in the world and they deserve exceptional life and care, my dog's name is Clyde he is a super dog, he has a great level of intelligence, he is a really polite and happy dog. I believe that having a job like this one is more than PRRRRFECT 😍! I'm the type of person that if I walk and see someone walking a dog I make eye contact with the dog first than with his human. Patience is one of my main characteristics when we talk about dogs, I have always thought that I have a natural connection with them, they give me confidence and I inspire confidence to them. I am currently a student at Foothill College, so Rover is the perfect opportunity for me to balance my class and homework schedule while earning some extra income. My schedule is pretty flexible since I'm only taking one class at the moment. I'm available for house sitting and dog walking services. Since I live in a small space, I'm not able to offer boarding, but I'm happy to care for your pets in the comfort of their own home or take them on walks. I also have a 15-years-old dog who has been my loyal companion and best friend for many years. Caring for him has taught me the importance of patience, compassion, and attentive pet care. Looking after animals, including my own, is one of my top priorities, and I'll treat your pet with the same love and care I give to mine.
About: I’ve had experience caring for and spending time with both small and large dogs, including dogs belonging to family and friends. I’ve also provided overnight care for a senior dog, which included following a medication schedule and making sure they received their food properly. While I’m newer to professional pet sitting, I genuinely love animals and treat every pet as if they were my own. I’m attentive to each pet’s individual needs, routines, and personality, and I’m excited to provide reliable, loving care. I especially enjoy spending time with dogs and would love the opportunity to take them on walks, give them plenty of attention, and help them feel happy and comfortable while you’re away! I recently finished college and will be starting a full-time job, so I’m looking to provide pet care during my available hours. I’m especially interested in morning dog walks or drop-in visits around 5–6 AM, as well as afternoon availability after work. Other than that I can work weekends but open to accommodate any hours for specific needs. I’m happy to work with your pet’s routine and provide dependable, loving care while you’re away! I want every pet to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while they’re with me. I’m attentive to each pet’s individual routine, personality, and needs, and I’m committed to following any instructions provided by their owner. I’ll always treat your home and belongings with respect and make sure your pet receives plenty of attention, care, and supervision. My goal is for you to feel confident and worry-free while your pet is in my care.
“Dom took good care of our cat while we were away. He was communicative and sent us little updates during his visits. We would recommend him to others and look forward to having him sit again.”
About: Does your doggo need a stay-at-home auntie in its life? Get ready for lots of photos and updates because your babies will get 24-7 attention at Casa de Barbara. ** I am a work-from-home writer/editor, and my husband is a scientist working in biotech. Aside from our very friendly poodle mutt (pictured in profile), the last member of our household is our daughter. She is great with dogs, having grown up learning how to nicely pet our pup. ** Some of the dogs that I have watched over the years have been coming to me longer than I’ve known my husband. We look forward to adding yours to the pack! ** Outside, your pet will get minimum 3 walks and/or off-leash time at a dog park. Inside, we will nap together in between rounds of fetch. ** My family is what you might consider perfect for your dog’s stay: pretty boring! 🤣 We don’t go out much, and if we do, we don’t stay out late. ***
“Pouneh is awesome. She sent pictures of my cat when she got here and pics of other things I asked for. My cat likes her and I felt comfortable with her being in my home. She really loves animals. I would highly recommend her to anyone that likes attention to detail and most importantly wants great care for your animal.”

“Pouneh is wonderful! From the beginning, she responded to my messages right away. We did an initial meet and greet at the local park. Nana immediately took to her and her daughters! I knew Nana would be happy and in good hands. Drop off and pick ups: I need to do an early drop off and it’s been super smooth. It’s easy to park in front and get Nana out safely and since we arranged that I send my ETA, Pouneh was already waiting outside ready to take her. Picking her up was also super easy. I texted ETA and she had everything ready with Nana. Again, parking was easy and available in front. Pouneh is very experienced and patient with dogs. She also has extra supplies like bowls, blankets, towels, leashes, etc., making it easier with less things to lug around. Nana looked so relaxed and happy when I picked her up that first day and each day since. I am happy to recommend Pouneh to anyone for doggie care and I will for sure rebook whenever I need an extra hand. Lastly, props to Rover as well. This is a great service and I don’t know what I’d do without it. I’ve always found great people here with sometimes short notice.”
“My puppy loves visiting Dalia! When we pull up, she jumps out of the car and runs to the door with excitement. Dalia always makes sure my puppy gets a good walk and a nap in, and she comes home in a great mood.”
About: I have a wide range of experience from raising a puppy to handling reactive dogs. I’m good at basic obedience training and trick training. In fact many of my friends will come to me when she need advice on obedience training or dog calming methods. I’m currently working from home so my schedule is pretty flexible for potty breaks, play times, and walks. Depending on how comfortable you are with your dog, I can take your furbaby for long walks or to dog parks. I live in a townhouse with a small fenced yard. I have a 35lbs Australian Shepherd who would love to say hi and play with your dog.
“I very much appreciate Ruo’s attentiveness in creating such a comforting environment for my senior pup. Trinity is special needs (being both visually and hearing impaired). She is so calm when I pick her up - all signs of how at ease she is and evidence to the care Ruo provides to ensuring a stressful visit! ♥️”
“Chelsea is fabulous. Rei had a wonderful stay. I truly appreciated all of the updates and photos. Highly recommended and I will definitely be reaching back out for a future stay. It was great peace of mind, knowing Rei was in such good hands.”
“Keli and Greg have been so wonderful to Brisket and he loves coming to their house! Keli is super communicative and sends lot of cute pics throughout the day, and I know Brisket loves going on hikes with her. They are amazing sitters and we highly recommended them!”
“Stacey has been incredible with our little dog Coco. She has been extremely communicative and sent us lots of pictures during our time away. Coco loved her time hanging out with Stacey’s dogs and having lots of play time. Thank you so much Stacey, we’ll definitely be booking again!”
About: I’m a dog mom to Pepper, my 9-year-old rescue, so I understand how much trust it takes to leave your furry baby with someone else. I’ve cared for friends’ pets for years, and I also have foster experience — I cared for an 18-year-old senior dog for 9 months until he found his forever home:). I’m calm, patient, and attentive to each pet’s personality, whether they need a slow walk, playtime, senior care, cuddles, or quiet company. I’ll treat your pet like my own and send updates so you can feel relaxed while you’re away. We work from home, so pet care fits naturally into our daily routine. We usually do a morning walk, some playtime in our private driveway around lunchtime, and an evening walk or park time. On very hot days, we avoid walking in the middle of the afternoon and prefer safe playtime in our shaded/private driveway instead. We live in a townhouse with a long private driveway, a nearby dog park, and several dog-friendly parks in the neighborhood. It’s a very dog-friendly area, and many of the neighborhood dogs already know and get along with our rescue dog, Pepper. At home, I focus on a calm, safe environment with supervision, patience, and care based on each dog’s personality and comfort level.
“Barbara was really great! Bella stayed with her for daycare today and she was awesome with her. She was very communicative and sent lots of pics to keep me updated. She even offered a meet and greet beforehand. Since the pup is such a senior and has special needs, it’s a relief to find someone who is so attentive and kind. I would definitely recommend booking with her.”
“Susanne was great with our dogs. This was our first time with doggie day care. Susanne made us all feel reassured and comfortable. She is incredibly attentive and conscientious. We got many messages from her throughout the day. The pups seemed happy and content when we came to get them.”
About: I have my own 7 year old corgi whom I love to take on social outings, and have always wanted to own a ranch to foster dogs and other animals. for now, this will do🤓 I enjoy popping in to see my friends’ dogs while they’re at work to take them out for potty breaks & play, and watching my friends’ dogs when they go on trips~ I have been a nurse for >4 years at Stanford, but recently resigned so that I have more flexibility in managing the home and in helping support my husband, who is a third year anesthesia resident at Stanford. ◡̈ Because I have more time than he does now, I have wiggle room for whatever needs pets may have throughout the day. Am happy to bring toast along for socializing, or leave him at home. I love dogs, and will always treat yours like I treat mine :) Am happy to accommodate their routines and needs within my capabilities and will always be mindful of your home 💓

“Great communication and was great with my puppy. Took him out and gave him his food and made sure he was comfortable along the way! Would definitely have Cynthia walk my dog again in the future.”
“Loved having Huei come check in on my dog Remy multiple times this last month. My pup took to her so quickly and would get so excited to see her open the door. I enjoyed all the fun texts and pictures that really showed my dogs fun personality that others get to experience. 10/10 would recommend and happy to continue to book her!!!”

“We are so grateful for how caring and patient Alexander is with our large, rambunctious dogs! It’s been a relief to know that they’ll get lots of love and long walks every day.”
“Aylia was extremely communicative, catered to our shy dogs needs, and responsible. I could tell she is used to working with skittish dogs and is willing to give them the space they need to feel safe. She did have an unforeseen emergency arise during our scheduled walks but she notified me quickly and Rover actually gave a credit for the trouble of finding a second sitter last minute. I would definitely rebook her if we need another walker!”
“Josh was great with my dog. Firm but not aggressive or hostile with my spirited Samoyed. Griffin loved going with Josh on his walks with Josh 's great dane and little terrier. It was a small, medium and large trio lol. Josh was punctual, reliable and gave the full hour. Would recommend 🙂”
About: As a dog owner myself, I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet. I understand that it takes attention and time to get to know each individual. My goal is to make every walk or visit a positive experience so both you and your dog feel at ease.

I can often accept last-minute requests. I am dependable and respectful, and will pay special attention to any specific directions regarding drop in visits. I will ensure the safety of your pet and home when I perform the visits.
“Kim was professional and considerate from the moment we met. She walked my pup a few days while I was out of town, helping split care with my mom. Kim checked in ahead of the service, during with questions, and sent lots of pictures to clearly show what happened. When my pup was sick one day, Kim kindly cleaned up after her and sat with her instead of trying to push through with a walk. I felt so comfortable leaving my pup in her hands.”

About: Dogs have been a big part of our lives. We adopted Bruno, our beloved Labrador Retriever, with whom we spent 11 years until he fought bravely with cancer but could not win. Bruno socialized me to his friends like Mastiffs, German Shepherds, Corgis, Golden Retrievers and many more and helped me understand that each dog, irrespective of his breed, has a unique personality and temperament. Thus, please do tell us about your dogs unique traits and his phobias so that we can make him feel at home. This is important for us to know as dogs undergo huge stress to be away from their home. After Bruno passed away, we adopted Rex, Labrador Retriever, who has helped us heal and made us realize how important dogs are in our lives! Both, me and my wife WFH and have flexible working schedule. So one of us will be at home to take care of the pack. We have Rex, a Labrador Retreiver, who goes on walks 2x times a day for 2-3 miles everyday. If the dog is staying with us, based on his needs, he can join us on our walks. Plus, we have a fully fenced backyard for dogs to play and run freely. Often, we take break from our work and play with our dog in the backyard or go for a small 5-10 min walk outside our home. For everyone’s safety, the dog should get along with kids and other dogs. Please let us know if there are any health issues and/or food allergies. My wife and I have experience caring for senior dogs, and both of us are comfortable administering medications as needed.
“Katherine was incredibly attentive to our senior dog and made him feel at home! We are grateful for her many updates and great communication, and we know our dog would love to stay with her again!”
“Lia was a superstar! We really needed someone who would be flexible with the schedule as we were about to have a baby. Lia provided exactly what we needed. She worked with us to reschedule the sitting on short notice. She is experienced and careful. The dog came back happy and healthy.”
About: Hi, I'm Lexi! I'm a registered nurse from south Louisiana, currently working a travel contract here in the Bay Area. Taking care of people is what I do for a living, and dogs have had my heart even longer. I grew up surrounded by dogs and my parents have four back home, so I'm comfortable with a full house, big personalities, and everything from the anxious ones to the ones who think they're lap dogs at 80 pounds. On my last few contracts, I've cared for several doctors' pets while they traveled. Overnight stays, feeding schedules, medications, walks, and plenty of couch time. I'm detail-oriented by training, so I'll follow your instructions exactly and send photo updates so you're never wondering how things are going. Caring for something someone loves is a real responsibility, and it's one I take seriously. I'd love to do that for you and your dog. I work Monday through Friday, 8:30 to 5, and I'm free every weekend. I can board or house sit any time outside of those work hours. Weeknight overnights and full weekends both work well. During the week I'm also available for early morning and evening walks, drop-ins, and feedings before and after work. I live nearby with a fully fenced backyard, so there's plenty of room to get outside and play. My schedule is set and predictable, so once we book, you can count on me being there. At my place, your dog has a fully fenced backyard to run in and free rein of the house. No crating unless that's what they're used to and you'd prefer it. I check the gate and fence line before letting anyone out, and dogs stay leashed anytime we're beyond the yard, no matter how good their recall is. In your home, I follow your routine exactly as you've laid it out. Feeding times, walk routes, which doors stay closed, and any quirks I should know about. I ask a lot of questions up front so nothing is left to guesswork. I'm comfortable giving medications and I pay close attention to how a dog is acting; if something seems off, you'll hear from me right away rather than after the fact. I leave the space the way I found it and send photo updates throughout so you always know how things are going.
“Michale and Evie are the best! They are so attentive and kept us updated in our pet’s status. I can tell our pet had a great time there!! I will definitely rebook!!!”
“My fur babies are definitely in good hands with Aoran and his wife! I have a Husky and a Border Collie, and they both are super energetic and are trouble makers... Aoran sent me photos of them everyday, and was very communicative with any concerns/questions. They only accept one customer each time and has a fenced yard! I would love to board my dogs to them again in the future :)”
“Kelli and Greg are consistently great — reliable, communicative and so sweet with both of our dogs, including one that requires special medical attention. Our boys love staying with them and it’s so valuable to us knowing they are in such good hands.”
