“Highly recommend! It is completely obvious how much Qi loves dogs. She provided incredible peace of mind by sending daily pictures and videos, showing just how attentive she is. She watched soccer games with my dog, which was such a fun, personal touch! I will absolutely be rebooking with her in the future.”
“It’s been a while since we’ve wanted to travel and had to think about boarding our dogs. We recently found Steve and did a meet and greet and it was very obvious that our pups were comfortable with him and he was comfortable with them. We booked a one day stay as a trial and our dogs clearly had a blast. Our dogs were so much happier having spent a day with Steve than being stuck alone at home. Highly recommended!”
“I am so happy that I choose Li for my dog Aggie. I am definitely going to choose her again. My dog can be anxious and nervous around new humans and other dogs. Li handled Aggie so well and sent us regular updates with pictures and videos. Thanks Li 😊💕”
“Mochi had a great weekend stay. She was well entertained by the family and got along well with their dog Eberly. Home with enclosed yard is spacious and safe. We will definitely board again.”
“Lovely home and family for my 2 pups; I highly recommend Michael & family. One of my pups in 9 and is moving slower than before and she loves to cuddle. My younger dog can get agitated and loves to be active/fetch. Michael was able to meet both of their unique needs. We will certainly book with them again. Also note I received frequent photos and videos. Communication was fantastic.”
“We have left our dog to stay with Diane several times and we've had an amazing experience each time! She has a huge backyard that our dog loves exploring and playing in. Diane sends us an update each day with some pictures she snapped of our boy having a fun time. We feel so safe and secure leaving our boy with Diane, she's always our first pick if we need to go out of town!”
“Daniela and Ronan went above and beyond. Millie was very well taken care of and we felt totally comfortable having them be with her. We look forward to having them take care of her again.”
“Jesse was great with Buddy, very kind and easygoing, so I knew he’d be in good hands. I really looked forward to the pictures and video Jesse sent. Buddy was very happy and healthy (and really clean and soft!) when I picked him up - he’d love to stay again!”
“Audrina was absolutely amazing and part of me wants to gatekeep her so she'd be available to take care of Yoshi whenever needed! Throughout the boarding, Audrina remained highly professional and experienced with all types of dogs. This was my first time using Rover so I was extremely nervous. I expressed my concerns with Yoshi being a senior, reactive dog, but Audrina and Donny eased all of my worries. We set up a meet and greet where they both took the time to ask questions about Yoshi's daily routine, habits, health, and personality. She also sent over a Google form to ensure nothing was forgotten about Yoshi's needs! Audrina went above and beyond - sending daily updates as well as cute pictures/videos the entirety of the stay. I could immediately tell that Audrina and Donny were giving Yoshi so much love and Yoshi looked extremely comfortable with them. He was playful, happy, and anxious-free! What stood out to me the most was that Audrina took the time to train Yoshi and even give him stimulating activities on the rainy days! I truly don't think I could have found a better person to take care of Yoshi!”
“This was the first time I tried a pet sitter app. My family are my usual dog sitters but they were all unavailable. So I requested Leah because my sister in law told me about her. I was really nervous but my sister in law told me about Rover & Leah and how much my fur nephews loved it there. We had to go on an unexpected trip for a funeral and Leah took care of my girl, Callie & fur nephews. Week before I even dropped off Callie, Leah was responsive to my questions and kind & patient with me. She let me know to create instructions on how to care for Callie & was so sweet & appreciative when I gave her back a full “book” of instructions. She was very reassuring that she & her family would care for Callie really well. Once my husband & I dropped off Callie to Leah, we were given a warm and welcoming greeting. She was inviting and just gave a very calming energy. Her place was clean, full of toys dog safe. Her furniture & products she used felt dog friendly & like a perfect second home for Callie. I felt really good about leaving Callie with her. During the trip we received updates. If I found myself just missing Callie and decided to check in by messaging Leah through the app, she was so responsive!. I knew Leah & her family were giving Callie lots of love & care (made obvious by the pictures sent through rover app). I was able to focus on family during this trip knowing Callie was in great hands! I only left Callie with Leah for 2 nights but, after this experience I would trust Leah to care for Callie for week(s) if needed. In the future, and if need to find care for my dog again, I will hope and pray Leah is available the days I need. She was awesome!!”
“Took care of my pup Tofu, he well cared for and they went above and beyond by getting exposed to the outside world with many walks and treat play. We felt at ease and happy seeing Tofus update and silly side of him from all the pictures and videos !”
“Karen was highly communicative and also flexible when our plans changed last minute for drop off/pick up time adjustments. We appreciate her reliable help and would recommend to other dog parents :)”
“Always a pleasure to have Juliana take care of my senior dog. She's very caring and attentive to his needs and medication schedule. She also sends plenty of pictures and updates!”

“We just go back from an overnight trip, during which Lara house & cat sat for our new kitten, Simon--the first time since we brought him home that we've been gone all night and left him with someone else. It went wonderfully. He was very happy to see us, but also relaxed and just like himself--no stress at all. Lara was great--she communicated with us promptly about setting up the date and while she was here. She sent pictures of Simon that made us smile and laugh. And when I asked her for a how Simon did overnight and how behaved (he is getting much better about not playing too rough, but I wanted to know how he was with someone other than us) and how he did overnight, she gave me the direct, honest reply I wanted. We will definitely use Lara again.”
“Aiyana did a wonderful job cat/house sitting over the Mother's Day weekend, so I could visit my mom. She was prompt, did all the things that I asked her to do and was very professional. She left the house exactly as she found it, and my cat was well cared for. Honest, trustworthy and set my mind at ease during my trip. Thanks Aiyana!!”
“David was a pet rockstar! He went above and begins my requests, and provided companion, exercise and extra toys and treats for my dog! I could not recommend this gentleman any higher. Will absolutely be booking him for any future trips and needs. Thanks David (and Huck his dog)!”
About: I’ve cared for cats with a wide range of personalities, from affectionate lap cats to independent, low-interaction types. I pay close attention to routines and body language so they feel safe and undisturbed in their own space. Your cat will get: - Fresh food, water, and a clean litter box - Play and interaction on their terms (or space, if they prefer) - A calm, low-stress environment for shy or sensitive cats - Medication or supplements as directed You’ll receive daily photo updates and messages for peace of mind. I adjust to each cat’s personality so they feel relaxed, happy, and at ease while you’re away.
“Noemi was amazing with our two shy cats. She took care of them for 3 weeks while we were away. It is very clear that she genuinely loves cats and understands their personalities and boundaries. They both warmed up to her, which says a lot! We appreciated the daily photos and felt completely comfortable knowing our cats were with someone so cat-focused and caring. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to others.”
“Sara was amazing with our three cats when we went out of town. She spent time playing with all of them even our grumpy hard to find kitty. She kept us updated on the weather so we could make sure they kept cool during a surprise heatwave and made sure we knew all the changes in the house while we were gone. I highly recommend her to care for your pets, she truly treats them as her own.”
“Ulysses took care of my kitties for several days. When I got home they were calm and fed. I could tell that they had been well cared for. Everything looked great and he even took out the trash for pickup. I will use his services again.”
About: I have had cats in my life since I was in my 30's up to when I moved to the West Coast, 15 years ago. I had one cat who needed a Diabetic shot twice a day for many years. At several points in my life I have had 2 cats. All my cats were indoor and well taken care of.
“Cordigen D always is super flexible and is able to come at specific times to make sure my cat is in the house. She’s kind and my cat clearly loves her. I always get her when I travel. She’s the best.”
“Heather was amazing. She was able to care for our difficult older cat like a pro. Our cat required two medications twice a day, including an injection, and our cat doesn't do well with stranger but she did great with Heather. Heather let us know everytime when she completed the shot which really put our minds at ease. We ended up book her again for two more trips these coming months.”
About: Being around animals is something that brings me joy. I have been around pets my whole life, so I have a lot of experience with many different species of dogs and cats. I currently own one dog and he is just full of personality. I would love to meet your pets and care for them while also being able to see their character. My schedule is pretty open and flexible other than when I am taking care of my own pets, working my part time job, or dealing with college assignments. I would care for pets in clients home by entertaining the pet with toys or treats approved by the owner, I would take the pet out for its routine outside times and overall just have a fun time with the pet
About: I have always had dogs growing up. When I was younger we did have a cat. I was a junior handler and dog trainer for my aunt who bred French Bulldogs for AKC shows. I practiced a little obedience/agility training during the same time. While in this setting I practiced with many different dog breeds and am comfortable handling any size dog. I helped a friend with her dog boarding company for a while and I encountered many different dogs here as well and not all as well trained. I absolutely love all animals I encounter. I love helping friends and family out with their animals while they are away. During college and high school, I would house sit/dog sit for friends. I have been around animals my entire life and I feel comfortable dealing with any situation thrown at me, whether it be a dog that isn't very good on a leash yet or a nervous animal who just needs a patient person to help take care of them while their family isn't there. My family currently has the goofiest labradoodle and Airedale terrier! We have two sweet pups, Gizmo, a poodle terrier, and Mazzy, a french bulldog. I am allergic to cats so while I'm happy to do drop ins and such with cats staying overnight with cats can be very difficult for me so I prefer to not sleep in homes that have cats. I am happy to wake up early and visit frequently if you have cats and dogs that way I can make sure every member of the family stays happy. Can't wait to meet your pups! I will be doing walks with my baby Mira either on my back in a carrier or in a stroller. If your pup isn't kid friendly I won't be a great fit, but I will keep my daughter separate just to keep pups comfortable and my daughter safe. Aleksandra Dooley (Sasha) I am a stay at home mom, so I care for my baby and pups all day. My own pups can't walk more than a block comfortably. My own home is not ideal as I already have two pups and a young baby at home, so I will not be able to accept any more pets into my home.
“Caring and conscientious pet/house sitter. Emily cared for my cat and home, including feeding my fish, while I was away. She was easy to talk with, understood how I wanted things done and kept everything (everyone) safe and happy while I was away.”

Her elderly lab is also a friendly, calm, and reassuring presence. So happy to see my pup relax and make himself at home-- in her home!”

About: I work from home so your dogs will be with me most of the time. I have a three year old mini schnauzer whom I adopted when she was a puppy so I am familiar with dog care. I typically took my dog out twice a day for a 30-40 mins long walk as well as a short potty break in the middle of the day. I work from home so I will be able to care for your dog while you are away. My household includes two kids (age 10 and 12) who also love dogs and a a three year old Mini Schnauzer named Jigglypuff.

Dogs will sleep on their own bed either in the living room/family room or my bedroom. Dogs are allowed on our sofa but not our beds.
“Bhumi seems like a very nice woman, and I believe she takes care of Coco nicely and patiently. If she can send a text or a picture of Coco to show me how she is doing, that would help me feel more relaxed, especially at the beginning of the few times.”
“Sofiya was awesome. I booked late notice and she took care of and was kind with my pup Jody :) Got to drop off location and he was stoked when he first met her! She definitely loves pets and has a way with them. 10 stars easily. Would recommend for all pet care. Thank you Sofiya, I will be seeing you again😁”

“Grace is amazing! Cannoli can be a little shy at first, and she was so welcoming and made him feel right at home. He was so happy to see her his second time. He’s had so much fun, he’ll be boarding with her soon! Grace sends regular photo updates and lets us know how Cannoli is doing throughout the day, and she even gives him puzzles! I’d recommend Grace to anyone!”
“Bianca was so great with Olive! Her communication and care for her was fantastic. She understood olives quirks and put our tips and commands to work. I had a last minute meeting come up and she extended the sit without issue. So happy to have found and met Bianca!”

“Lara is very communicative and easy to work with. One of my dogs is very skittish and slow to warm up with new people, and the other is very large and over exuberant, and Lara has been great with them both. My dogs enjoy her visits and are always quiet and restful throughout the evening when she comes. And I love knowing they're not stuck inside all day. I'll definitely use Lara again.”
“Our dog was in last stages of lymphoma. Aiyana gave her her last gentle walks and was very understanding and supportive about the situation. When we have another dog, we will definitely use Aiyana's services again.”

“I am beyond pleased with the exceptional care and attention that our male dog walker provided to my two schnauzers. In just two walks, it is evident that he genuinely cares for them. His sweet demeanor and dedication make him a standout choice. I will definitely be utilizing his services again”
About: I’ve been so lucky to have been raised with dogs my whole life, ever since I was young we’ve had two dogs at all times. I love to walk, play and nap with them. Friends, family and family friends have asked me to look after their pets. I love nature and getting to the outdoors and love taking doggy’s with me, and I also love to laze around like a house cat. I love all sorts of animals, dogs, cats, horses, chickens and pigs. I hope to own a farm one day with all sorts of animals running around enjoying their best life. I am currently openly available, I am looking for part-time work, but mostly want to spend time with the pup’s and take them on walks. Animals take care of us if we take care of them. So I love taking my dogs for walks and playing games with them, giving them belly scratches and more. and if they want to snooze I am all good with that too.
“Sumaira is always on time and I know I can count on her to take good care of my fur babies. While walking my Siberian Husky another dog that was unleased attacked my dog. Sumaira safely got my girl home and check her out from head to toe. She promptly notified me that the husky was attacked, however alright. Sumaira let me know there was a little blood on her ear, however she did not appear to be injured. I myself have had another dog attack us when we were walking. Sumaira did the responsible thing and notified me and ensured my girl was alright. In this type of situation that is best can be accomplished and despite this incident I will ask Sumaira to walk her again.”
About: I take my dogs for runs, and I travel with her some times! I love watching after dogs and being physical! Exercise is very important! Currently I live with family and they help take care of our animals as well and take my dog and cat for walks, we live in nature so they sun bathe and frolic . I can offer going to peoples houses and that means making sure they're well fed and entertained and just really taking care of them anyway they need. I've also had an animal that had surgery so I'm familiar with giving shots and pills as well!
About: I have taken care of pets for quite some time. I grew up on a farm, so I have been around all sorts of animals all my life. I recently moved back here to the valley from Santa Cruz. Will be here for a year or so. When I was in Santa Cruz I volunteer for the animal shelter there. I recently moved here from Santa Cruz, and will be starting work at the school in the fall, so I am looking to do some pet sitting, and dog walking, during the summer. I have a fenced yard, but I am not doing pet care at my home at this time. I am sharing home with family members

“Highly recommend! It is completely obvious how much Qi loves dogs. She provided incredible peace of mind by sending daily pictures and videos, showing just how attentive she is. She watched soccer games with my dog, which was such a fun, personal touch! I will absolutely be rebooking with her in the future.”
“It’s been a while since we’ve wanted to travel and had to think about boarding our dogs. We recently found Steve and did a meet and greet and it was very obvious that our pups were comfortable with him and he was comfortable with them.

“We have left our dog to stay with Diane several times and we've had an amazing experience each time! She has a huge backyard that our dog loves exploring and playing in. Diane sends us an update each day with some pictures she snapped of our boy having a fun time. We feel so safe and secure leaving our boy with Diane, she's always our first pick if we need to go out of town!”
“Jesse was great with Buddy, very kind and easygoing, so I knew he’d be in good hands. I really looked forward to the pictures and video Jesse sent. Buddy was very happy and healthy (and really clean and soft!) when I picked him up - he’d love to stay again!”
“Audrina was absolutely amazing and part of me wants to gatekeep her so she'd be available to take care of Yoshi whenever needed! Throughout the boarding, Audrina remained highly professional and experienced with all types of dogs. This was my first time using Rover so I was extremely nervous. I expressed my concerns with Yoshi being a senior, reactive dog, but Audrina and Donny eased all of my worries. We set up a meet and greet where they both took the time to ask questions about Yoshi's daily routine, habits, health, and personality. She also sent over a Google form to ensure nothing was forgotten about Yoshi's needs! Audrina went above and beyond - sending daily updates as well as cute pictures/videos the entirety of the stay. I could immediately tell that Audrina and Donny were giving Yoshi so much love and Yoshi looked extremely comfortable with them. He was playful, happy, and anxious-free! What stood out to me the most was that Audrina took the time to train Yoshi and even give him stimulating activities on the rainy days! I truly don't think I could have found a better person to take care of Yoshi!”
“Always a pleasure to have Juliana take care of my senior dog. She's very caring and attentive to his needs and medication schedule. She also sends plenty of pictures and updates!”
“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.”
“Nadia took great care of my two Samoyeds during my winter vacation. We scheduled a meet up session before the booking, and I immediately saw her passion and love for dogs. She is very experienced. During the week that I was out, she sent pictures and videos to me every day. She carefully cleans their paws and make sure they always have supervised play. Thank you Nadia!”
“Lana (that’s Svetlana’s preferred name) did a great job taking care of my Ziggy for 3 days. He’s got plenty of walking, playtime, and chill time during his stay. Lana was helpful about my need to get Ziggy picked up from my home while I was rushing to an airport. At the end of the dog boarding, she dropped him off at my house as well, which was very convenient! I’m so glad Lana offered this Pick-up & Drop-off option! Highly recommend her as a dog sitter!”
“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.”
“Sarah took to Jennifer immediately. Jennifer would send daily updates for Sarah with photos and it is a great comfort to see Sarah all settled in. Jennifer has taken such good care of Sarah that I am confident that I will book her for dog sitting service again. Thank you, Jennifer!”
“I reached out to Olga to care for my dog. From the start, she was very accommodating with my schedule, making adjustments to fit my needs, even on short notice. She provided regular updates, including photos and messages, which reassured me that my dog was in great hands. Based on the pictures that she sent us with our dog we could see that she was doing an amazing job. I truly appreciate her willingness to work around my schedule and her commitment to excellent pet care. I highly recommend Olga and will definitely book with her again!”
“Our dog, Lucky, had a great week of stay with Vinod and his family over the holidays. He found great company in Shadow - also a yellow lab - and the other dogs that boarded at the same time. Vinod shared many photos and videos every single day, of the dogs playing, eating, sleeping and having a fun time together. It really made our holiday trip so much better knowing Lucky was having a good time too. Overall, Vinod is attentive, responsive, flexible, and professional - he clearly loves spending time with the dogs, and it shows. Easily a 5-star provider, highly recommend!”
“Olive had a blast with Carole & Terry, once again! At drop off, she ran right up to them, excited for her second stay. She was incredibly well cared for, she was loved, and treated like family. We’re so grateful for their incredible care. ❤️”
