“Nabil took wonderful care of Raisin for two days. It was Raisin’s first time staying away from home, so we were a little nervous, but Nabil and Sunny made her feel comfortable and safe. She quickly warmed up to them, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear that she was well cared for and treated with kindness. We truly appreciated the updates and the loving care Raisin received. I would highly recommend Nabil to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy pet sitter!”
“Our senior whippet stayed with Qi (wonderful dog sitter) for over a week, and the experience was exceptional. We received frequent updates and photos, which gave us total peace of mind and let us see how relaxed and happy he was. It was clear he was being cared for with genuine affection, patience, and attention to his needs as an older pup. We always felt he was safe, comfortable, and treated like family. We couldn’t be more grateful and highly recommend their services.”
“Madhumita was wonderful with Bentley. She and her family took great care of him while we were away. She kept us updated with photos and he seemed so happy with them. We would recommend her to anyone and everyone!”
“Leaving my girls with Joyce and her family was once again a great decision! They had so much fun, received lots of attention, and enjoyed plenty of playtime. Joyce kept us updated regularly, which gave us peace of mind. We’ll definitely be back!”

“Ani and Kevin has been taking care of our two golden retrievers for the past 3 years every time we were on vacation, mostly one week or two weeks at a time. They took very good care of our dogs and treated them as part of their family. They took them for walks and hikes and I can tell our dogs had so much fun with their family. When I used to board our dogs at the Wag hotel, I was always worried about their well being. With Ani and Kevin, I knew they were being well taken care of and I could enjoyed our vacation while our dogs were having a great time. Thank you.”
“Diane was so quick and responsive to my boarding request! Her home is beautifully tucked away in nature, which gave my dog a much needed break from all the holiday fireworks. She was very professional and communicative - sent regular updates with photos included. I know my dog got regular walks and playtime in during the stay. Diane showed great kindness and care, and I really trusted that my dog was in good hands with her. Thank you Diane!!”
“Mike is great with dogs. My pup had plenty of walks and playtime with couple of other dogs in the roomy backyard, and he got lots of pets and affection. I would definitely leave my dog with him again.”
“We had such an amazing experience with Audrina watching our dog, Brody! We were updated everyday with pictures and information about his day and all the fun activities he did. He was a very happy boy and we will definitely be using her again!!”
“We had a wonderful experience with Jennifer. I appreciated her speedy responses when we were messaging back and forth to set everything up. You can tell that she and her family really love animals. Our dog Kona got a walk in every day we were gone and Jennifer kept us in the loop with pictures and updates on how the weekend was going. We already have our next booking with Jennifer set up. Thank you Jennifer!”
“Nadia was super sweet and loving with my fur baby. I was relieved because it was my first time leaving my dog with a Rover sitter. Nadia sent me multiple photos of my dog on a daily basis.”
“Eunice and Sean were great dog sitters for Astor! They played with Astor, cuddled with her and made sure all her daily needs were met. They also made sure to give us frequent updates on how Astor was doing throughout the whole stay. Furthermore, we had to push our pick up time really late because our return flight got significantly delayed, and they were happy to accommodate.”
“When our regular sitter wasn’t available for the last night of our vacation, Christy and Cornell came to the rescue. Zoey was very happy and cared for at pickup and they were great communicators!”
“Our dog spent another long weekend with Boris and Olga and I feel like he had the best weekend! They took him on a hike and it feels like they really treated him like their own. Great communication. Lots of photos. Flexible with drop off and pick up. Would absolutely use again!”
“Bali was great! Frida felt very comfortable with the family and got her daily snuggles. She’s Very accommodating since our pup loves to cuddle up on a bed or couch.”
About: Welcome to a cozy home for your dog! I offer a secure, affectionate, and engaging environment for your furry friend. I offer a mix of fun playtime, comfy resting spots, and regular updates for pet owners. Safety and well-being are my top priorities. I can administer medicines and meet specific dietary needs. Choose my service for a worry-free experience and a joyful stay for your dog, where they’re treated as part of the family! For over 30 years, I’ve lovingly cared for my own pets, as well as those of family and friends while they were away. I take pride in being a reliable, compassionate pet sitter. After recently losing my beloved dog, I’m looking to fill the void in my heart by sharing my love with your pets. My dog was with us for 15 years and was loved and well cared for. I will make sure that you pet gets the exercise they need, both mentally and physically, Aside from the daily walks, I also like to take them to the park to play if possible.I will treat them as my own I have taken training classes to learn how to train dogs and understand dog behavior. Before Booking: I would love to get to know your dogs before any booking, please check the ‘Would Like to Know About Your Pet’ section. If you want to know the daily routine for boarding/daycare, please check the ‘A Typical Day’ section. If you want to know about the caring environment, please check the ‘Safety, Trust & Environment’ section. I’d be happy to look after your pet from Friday to Monday. I’m free on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday, but I’m at the office from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. I’ll take your dog for four walks each day, and I’ll do my best to match your walk times. I’d also enjoy taking them for a long walk in the evening or to the park—I believe a dog who gets plenty of walks and their energy out is a happy dog. I’ll make sure to meet your dog’s needs. If your dog prefers to stay home due to age, size, or other reasons, I’ll adjust the walking distance and schedule to keep them engaged, even when they’re at home. I don’t currently have any pets, so visiting dogs will receive my full attention. I’ll be home most of the time from Friday through Monday, allowing me to provide frequent supervision, potty breaks, walks, and companionship. I also have a crate available if your dog is crate-trained or if you would like them crated for sleeping or when appropriate. I’ll follow your pet’s regular routine and any specific care instructions to help them feel safe, comfortable, and at home during their stay.
“Malika was an amazing cat sitter for Gigi! Gigi is very shy and cautious around new people, but Malika was very patient and knew how to help her feel comfortable. Gigi is also a 16 year old senior cat with a more specific feeding routine, and Malika followed everything carefully. She sent regular updates a few times a day which gave me a lot of peace of mind. Malika was communicative and very knowledgeable about cats. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable pet sitter!”

“Lara is wonderful. We were gone for several days, the longest time since we got our kitten. Lara sent notes and photos that let us know he is completely comfortable with her and happy to do his usual stuff while she is around. He was happy to see us when we got home, but totally relaxed.”
“Marie Angelika is a beautiful person who loves and respects animals. That was my exact impression from meeting her and interacting with her throughout the stay. My bird can be clingy at times, but she felt safe, secure, and happy in Marie's care. She fed her fresh veggies which was super cool. Marie has great energy, maintained wonderful communication, and sent regular updates with videos. She was kind, helpful, and even went out of her way to meet me halfway. I couldn't have asked for a better experience. I highly recommend her!”
“Aiyana did a great job and I'd happily book again. She was quick with responses during booking, sent me update pics while I was away, and the animals were happy and well when I got home.”
About: I have taken care of many cats since I was young, owned my own indoor/outdor cat for several years when I was a teen and through college. I have also cared for many cats of family members, friends, and others.
About: Cats have always been a big part of my life. I currently have two of my own and grew up caring for several cats with a wide range of personalities and needs—from affectionate house cats to seniors requiring extra care, and even feral cats that needed patience and understanding. I’m comfortable recognizing and respecting feline boundaries while also giving them the attention, playtime, and affection they enjoy on their own terms. Whether your cat is social, shy, playful, or independent, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away.
“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.”
“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)!”
“Carmen has made several check ins with our two kitties and one dog. They love her, even our very shy kitty! Both of our kitties require meds and Carmen was able to give them their meds with no issues. I would highly recommend Carmen her love of animals is very evident.”
About: My first exposure to cats was Raisin, my beloved tabby when I was 3 years old. My next cat "of my own" was Spooky, a Russian Blue abandoned in a Seattle Queen Anne Hill apartment building who joined our family when I was a preteen. I've been caring for cats ever since. My husband and I have cared for many cats of all ages over the years and my own cat Elvis just passed at 18, so I know exactly what it takes to care for a senior cat: the feeding schedule, the medication, the careful observation, the quiet corners they retreat to. I'm not the cheapest sitter on here. But I'm the one you don't have to think twice about when it comes to your home space and your loved ones.
“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.”
“I trust Ulysses with my fur babies. I can tell they’ve been loved while I’m away. The pictures and videos he sends while caring for my kitties show how much they like him. He even takes my trash can out on garbage day.”
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 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.”

“My Goldendoodle, Livingstone, loves his daycare visits with Daniela and Ronan. They take great care of him, and are extremely accommodating with me. Plenty of photos and videos, and Livingstone ate well and got plenty of outside play time. Thank you both!”
“If your pup loves other dogs and a romp in the redwoods, this is the place to be. On our second visit, Abby recognized Ulysses' house as we came up the road and couldn't wait to go inside to play. It's a relief to know my pup is safe and happy !”
“Kara was available on late notice and was fantastic! She provided frequent updates and pictures, and our Clea had a great time hanging out and making friends with her and her pup.”
About: Hi! I’m Angelika, and I absolutely love spending time with animals of all kinds. I’ve loved animals my whole life. Growing up, our family home was full of pets, from rodents like mice, guinea pigs, rats, and hamsters, to rabbits, cats, turtles, parrots, and a dog I adored who passed away three years ago. I’ve walked and cared for dogs and cats since childhood, including helping my grandmother and neighbors with their pets, walking them and spending time with them whenever needed. Right now I don’t have a pet of my own because I’m traveling a lot, but I’d love to help care for other people’s furry friends. I’m responsible, attentive, and I love spending time with animals. I enjoy walking them, playing with them, and making sure they feel safe and happy. I can’t wait to meet your pets and give them lots of love while you’re away! I am currently looking for a full-time job and I'm pretty flexible. In the meantime I have plenty of free time so I’m available to take care of your pets anytime! 😊 I make sure pets feel safe, happy, and loved in their own home. I follow the owner’s instructions, give plenty of attention, play, and walks, and keep everything clean and secure 🫶🏼
About: I am a responsible, nurturing and kind individual who loves all animals. I have owned small dogs, large dogs, a cat, aquatic pets, and taken care of many of my friends', family members' pets and been referred to many to care for their dogs and cats. In my last relationship I took full responsibility for three large dogs, one which was a rescue adopted as a puppy, (feeding, administering medications, training, exercise, bathing, grooming, vet visits) for about 5 years. I am currently working part-time and taking a break from school while I prepare to apply to a health profession program. This gives me a very open and flexible schedule, allowing me to accommodate a variety of pet care needs, including morning, afternoon, evening, weekend, and overnight care. Because of my flexible availability, I can devote plenty of time and attention to your pet, ensuring they stay on their normal routine with regular walks, playtime, feeding, potty breaks, and lots of love and companionship. I look forward to working with you and providing your pet with the compassionate, dependable care they deserve while you're away! I provide loving, reliable pet care in your home using your pet's own supplies to help keep their routine as normal as possible. I use the food, treats, toys, bedding, leashes, litter, medications, and any other pet essentials you provide, so I don't bring my own pet supplies. This helps your pet stay comfortable in their familiar environment while you're away. I live in a quiet, small neighborhood with about 0.75 acres of yard space and keep a clean, tidy home with plenty of room for pets to roam and relax. If boarding or daycare is arranged at my home, I will use any pet supplies you provide to maintain your pet's routine and comfort. Whether I'm caring for your pet in your home or mine, I'll follow your instructions closely and treat your pet like family, giving them plenty of attention, exercise, and affection.
“So delighted to find Madhumita. Her quiet affectionate calm and patience letting my dog, who has a trauma history, come our of his shell was just what he needed to feel comfortable. 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!”
“Diane was gracious and kind taking my last minute request. My large anxious reactive (barking) dog is not the easiest guy to watch, but Diane always gives him a lot of love. Thank you!!”
About: Dogs have been and always will be one of my greatest loves! My childhood dogs made my life so much more meaningful. When our own kids were growing up we had two dogs which we adopted as puppies and had the pleasure of having until they passed from old age. Both our son and daughter are Rover dog sitters and we have greatly enjoyed helping them care for these amazing dogs. Now, we are ready to take care of our own! We are a retired couple who loves dogs and will almost always be home to provide companionship and love to your pup. We also enjoy taking dogs on neighborhood walks and making sure that they have a fantastic vacation while in our care! We have a large fenced yard and a grassy area for the dogs to run around in. We also have a swimming pool. Our peaceful neighborhood is perfect for going on walks with the dogs and we will send daily photos of your dog to you!
“Boba absolutely had a blast at both at boarding and day care with Florence and her family. She comes home everyday tired and happy which is a good sign. All the dogs look like they have fun from the pictures that are sent throughout the day.”
“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.”
“Vinod took care of Bobby very well Let my dog play with his dog in backyard and trained Bobby on pulling rope with his dog Overall I am very happy about Bobby stay and the service”

“My dog had a wonderful day of daycare with Grace! I was very impressed with the amount of thought and care she puts into watching the dogs, and I appreciated the updates she sent me throughout the day. I would happily send my dog to Grace again!”

I now have a 6 year old poodle at home, who loves playing with dogs too. In our home, your furry baby will receive round-the-clock love, attention, and plenty of belly rubs. My Home & Yard I live in a large, spacious single-family home with more than enough room for your pet to lounge and feel right at home. The Best Part: The backyard is massive with tons of secure green space! It is the perfect setup for high-energy pups who love to sprint, play fetch, or just sniff around and explore safely.

I currently work part-time from home and we have a retired senior and a high schooler at home, and we are all available to make sure your pet is well cared for. Your pet will be walked twice a day - morning and evening. And my energetic playful poodle will make sure they get plenty of exercise and play in our backyard during the day. I have a single-family home with a large fenced backyard that is ready to host your pet. I’ll make sure all our pets get individual attention and care, and are fed independently. They can sleep on their own bed or on our sofas, whatever they prefer. I will send you daily updates on how they are doing.

About: I’ve spent years caring for animals and understand that every pet has their own unique personality, routine, and needs. Whether your pet is an energetic puppy, a senior dog who needs extra patience and support, or anything in between, I’m committed to providing attentive, compassionate care tailored to them.

“Ashley was an absolute pleasure to work with! I needed last-minute care for my dog, so I reached out to her around 10pm the night before. I was very grateful for her quick reply at that hour. She happened to be available the next day, which was such a lifesaver. We did a meet & greet around 10am, and later that afternoon she came by to give my dog a short walk/potty break. She followed all of my instructions and kept me updated with detailed messages, which gave me confidence that she understood what was needed. She also sent several videos during the walk which gave me peace of mind. My dog is currently recovering from an injury, so it was especially important to find someone who would be patient, attentive, and responsible. Ashley was exactly that, and I felt relieved knowing my dog was in such caring hands. Ashley is kind, reliable, communicative, and seemed to genuinely enjoy connecting with my pup. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy petsitter. I would absolutely book with her again!”
“Sydney has walked my dog, Louis, on several occasions. His interaction with Louis is very positive and Louis is excited when Sydney comes. Sydney has always been on time and sends pictures during the walk to let me know that he has Louis. I definitely recommend Sydney!”
“Yaisa was awesome for walking Toko and Arya when I was away at work during the day! She showed up on time and would take them for a nice long walk through the neighborhood. My pups were surprisingly well behaved with her and I loved all the pictures she would send me! They always looked happier on days after she visited. I will definitely book again when I need someone to check in with them if I'm out on a day trip or any long work weeks.”
“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.”

“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”

“Nabil took wonderful care of Raisin for two days. It was Raisin’s first time staying away from home, so we were a little nervous, but Nabil and Sunny made her feel comfortable and safe. She quickly warmed up to them, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear that she was well cared for and treated with kindness. We truly appreciated the updates and the loving care Raisin received. I would highly recommend Nabil to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy pet sitter!”
“Our senior whippet stayed with Qi (wonderful dog sitter) for over a week, and the experience was exceptional. We received frequent updates and photos, which gave us total peace of mind and let us see how relaxed and happy he was.

We couldn’t be more grateful and highly recommend their services.”

“Diane was so quick and responsive to my boarding request! Her home is beautifully tucked away in nature, which gave my dog a much needed break from all the holiday fireworks. She was very professional and communicative - sent regular updates with photos included. I know my dog got regular walks and playtime in during the stay. Diane showed great kindness and care, and I really trusted that my dog was in good hands with her. Thank you Diane!!”

About: Welcome to a cozy home for your dog! I offer a secure, affectionate, and engaging environment for your furry friend. I offer a mix of fun playtime, comfy resting spots, and regular updates for pet owners. Safety and well-being are my top priorities. I can administer medicines and meet specific dietary needs. Choose my service for a worry-free experience and a joyful stay for your dog, where they’re treated as part of the family! For over 30 years, I’ve lovingly cared for my own pets, as well as those of family and friends while they were away. I take pride in being a reliable, compassionate pet sitter. After recently losing my beloved dog, I’m looking to fill the void in my heart by sharing my love with your pets. My dog was with us for 15 years and was loved and well cared for. I will make sure that you pet gets the exercise they need, both mentally and physically, Aside from the daily walks, I also like to take them to the park to play if possible.I will treat them as my own I have taken training classes to learn how to train dogs and understand dog behavior. Before Booking: I would love to get to know your dogs before any booking, please check the ‘Would Like to Know About Your Pet’ section. If you want to know the daily routine for boarding/daycare, please check the ‘A Typical Day’ section. If you want to know about the caring environment, please check the ‘Safety, Trust & Environment’ section. I’d be happy to look after your pet from Friday to Monday. I’m free on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday, but I’m at the office from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. I’ll take your dog for four walks each day, and I’ll do my best to match your walk times. I’d also enjoy taking them for a long walk in the evening or to the park—I believe a dog who gets plenty of walks and their energy out is a happy dog. I’ll make sure to meet your dog’s needs. If your dog prefers to stay home due to age, size, or other reasons, I’ll adjust the walking distance and schedule to keep them engaged, even when they’re at home. I don’t currently have any pets, so visiting dogs will receive my full attention. I’ll be home most of the time from Friday through Monday, allowing me to provide frequent supervision, potty breaks, walks, and companionship. I also have a crate available if your dog is crate-trained or if you would like them crated for sleeping or when appropriate. I’ll follow your pet’s regular routine and any specific care instructions to help them feel safe, comfortable, and at home during their stay.
“We’ve never left our dog with anyone but immediate family and never with anyone for 12 days. Anusha managed our high energy dog perfectly and developed a rapport with him right away. She also managed my own anxiety by sending photos and videos twice daily to show me that our dog was relaxed and happy in her care. I can’t thank her enough for the care and attention she provided.”
“Angelika did a great job watching my dog, Fawn! Throughout the process of watching her she sent me updated pictures of how Fawn was doing when staying at her place, and was flexible about the drop off/pick up time! I’d recommend Angelika to others who are looking for somewhere for their doggie to stay while they’re on a vacation or what not. :)”
About: About Me I have been passionately caring for pets since I was 10 years old, and have been doing the same on Rover for the last 7 years through my son's account until he moved out for college. I now have a 6 year old poodle at home, who loves playing with dogs too. In our home, your furry baby will receive round-the-clock love, attention, and plenty of belly rubs. My Home & Yard I live in a large, spacious single-family home with more than enough room for your pet to lounge and feel right at home. The Best Part: The backyard is massive with tons of secure green space! It is the perfect setup for high-energy pups who love to sprint, play fetch, or just sniff around and explore safely. Whether your pet prefers non-stop playtime or a cozy spot on the couch next to me, I can't wait to welcome them into our home! I currently work part-time from home and we have a retired senior and a high schooler at home, and we are all available to make sure your pet is well cared for. Your pet will be walked twice a day - morning and evening. And my energetic playful poodle will make sure they get plenty of exercise and play in our backyard during the day. I have a single-family home with a large fenced backyard that is ready to host your pet. I’ll make sure all our pets get individual attention and care, and are fed independently. They can sleep on their own bed or on our sofas, whatever they prefer. I will send you daily updates on how they are doing.
