“Achara took care of our special needs terrier with no problem. It was great that she could stay home with him to reduce his separation anxiety. She was also east to communicate with. We are very grateful for her help.”
“Roy was a lifesaver! I got sick and my high energy dog needed someone to care for her while I slept. Roy took Ali on short notice and gave her the care and attention needed until I was better! Have already rebooked! Highly recommend!”
“We were so pleased with our experience working with Jennifer! Our dog came back so happy and we could tell she was definitely well taken care of and loved! We were nervous to leave our dog over NYE with all of the fireworks but Jennifer did an excellent job of helping her to feel comfortable. She also provided great daily updates. So happy to have found her and will definitely look to her again for future stays.”
“We had a wonderful experience with Martha May while she boarded our dog, Loki. From the moment we connected, Martha was caring, kind, and incredibly communicative throughout his stay. She provided regular updates and thoughtful feedback, which gave us peace of mind and helped us better understand Loki's needs for future boarding visits. It was clear that Martha May genuinely cared about Loki's comfort and well-being, and he was well cared for during his time with her. Her professionalism, attention to detail, and willingness to share helpful observations made the experience exceptional. I highly recommend Martha May to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive dog sitter. We would be happy to book with her again in the future!”
“Reginay is an amazing person!! She looked after my dog very well and she was able to share a lot of pictures and kept me up to date on how my dog was doing through the whole booking. I would highly recommend her to anyone using this app. She goes above and beyond for our pets!!!”
“Alexandra did a wonderful job of taking care of my pup. This was my first time leaving my dog with someone other than family, however Alexandra treated Elsa just like family. She sent daily pictures and Elsa had a wonderful time getting to vacation and meet new friends. We are very grateful for her care and will be back ☺️”
“I couldn't recommend Michael more! This was the first time I left my newly adopted dog with a pet sitter, and I had concerns that my dog had issues with men. So I was a little nervous. Luckily, everything went very smoothly and without issue. Michael has a nice easy way with dogs and is very experienced. Additionally, Michael kept me apprised with regular updates and photos, which eased my mind so that I could enjoy my trip. I would definitely book with Michael again!”
“We highly recommend Grisel to care for your dog. She took excellent care of our 15 year old dog Lexxie for 44 consecutive days while my husband under went a transplant at Stanford. Because of Lexxie’s age she is on medications for her kidneys & liver in addition to a special diet. Grisel followed instructions in all aspects of Lexxie’s care even taking her to have her monthly visit to have her nails trimmed and contacting us when she needed to see the Vet for a possible eye infection. Because of an old leg injury Lexxie could not take long walks with the other dogs Grisel cared for, so, Grisel borrowed a wagon to place her in to enjoy “walking “ with the other dogs. We plan to schedule some doggie day care days with Grisel so that Lexxie can maintain the friendships she made.”
“We love staying with Catherine and her fur babies. Everyone is so well taken care of and ends their stay happy and relaxed. Kevin and DiDi love Catherine!”
“Thank you Demi! She was so flexible when our recent travel plans got complicated. We are so grateful! Demi kept me updated on Khrush’s stay. I’m so grateful to have found a Rover that is so communicative and attentive to our sweet boy. ❤️”
“It was the second time our dog has seen Patty and his first overnight with her. She was a great communicator before and during his visit with pictures of him enjoying his stay.”
“Danielle was so good with my baby and VERY patient. She has lots of her own babies to play with which was nice as well. She was very communicative and I felt comfortable with all of her updates. I would definitely use her again!”
“Bari & Felix were great! We needed someone to watch our dog last minute and they were very accommodating. They kept us updated with photos and it seemed like Duncan (our dog) had lots of fun. If we come back to the area we would definitely book them again!”
“My doggy and cat love Joel. They know they will be taken care and get lots of attention and love. They are my babies and it makes it so much easier to know they are happy even when I am gone. Thanks Joel!!”
“Janessa is a very friendly and positive person. As with any new person or environment for our little animals we are naturally unsure and/or skeptical at first. Janessa was very communicative and unsolicitedly shared a photo or two daily along with little comment on things are. This helped put me at ease right away. I definitely recommend her for your future sitter needs. Thanks again!”
“Rebecca is just wonderful! She's so welcoming, soft spoken and understanding. We and Bruno had a stress free experience with the stay. Bruno felt right at home thanks to her fantastic care, lovely walks and cute photo updates!! It truly seemed like Bruno missed her after his stay! Bruno felt like its his second home ❤️. We're thrilled to have found Rebecca on Rover and will board Bruno with Rebecca again. ❤️”

“Natalie is so wonderful! She takes such great care of my Winston. I feel completely worry free when I travel knowing she is watching over him. Always goes above and beyond with other urgent requests that come up last minute. I'm super grateful for her.”
“Elizabeth is beyond the best sitter for my cat “Timber” my fiance and I just moved here and travel a lot for work. We have already booked Liz 3 times first for stop by visits as our fur baby needs special attention for his nose and sinus issues and twice for staying at our place. She is practically family now as our cat loves her visits (even sleeps by her head for stay in visits). Very trustworthy as she sends photos and keeps us in the loop on everything with updates and if she notices something out of the ordinary she lets us know.She is the BEST! I wouldn’t pick anyone else to take care of our lil dude but her. Thank you sooooo much.”
“Very kind, polite and did a great job! My husband is disabled and it was such a relief knowing my cats would be taken care of while I was out of town. Will definitely use her again ?❤️?.”

“Jessica was absolutely amazing and so attentive when stopping by! She came by for a meet and greet and I could tell right away she could get along with any animal & human, very sweet person! My cat Percy loved her and I could tell when I got home that he had been extremely well taken care of. She wrote very nice & long reviews each visit which when on vacation I absolutely LOVE !! Thank you Jessica!”
“Erika was fantastic. Not only was she able to fit us in on short notice over the holiday, but she went above and beyond caring for our cats. Really appreciated getting the detailed updates and photos each visit. Would absolutely book again.”
“Karli took such incredible care of my boy Bob while I was out of the country. It was our longest time away from each other and I was anxious to leave him, but Karli sent me so many photos and videos and took such great care of my home! She is a wonderful sitter and I am so lucky she cared so much about my Bobby.”
About: I’ve owned both dogs and cats in the past, as well as walked neighbors and friends dogs! Moved to a new city so looking for new pups and cats! Currently have a full time job but find myself in one place most of the day so looking for ways to stay active! I’m available most weekends, and week day nights! I like to keep a clean space so am sure to clean up after animals, as well as have a safe space for them to play, eat, and use the bathroom!
“Andrea is a wonderful sitter! She's also been so patient and sweet with my senior cat, who has to be pilled several times per day. She's communicative and gives frequent updates while I'm away. Really glad I found Andrea and I highly recommend her :)”
“Outstanding pet sitters! They went above and beyond to care for my cats—ensuring fresh food and water, clean litter, and a clean environment. They gave the beasts plenty of love, attention, and brushing. We came home to happy, well-cared-for pets.”
“Samantha was very responsive and great at communicating! She was great with Cleo even though Cleo can be sassy! She respected Cleo’s boundaries but also gave her lots of attention. She followed rules exactly and put me at ease while I was away. I knew my cat was in good hands!”
“Hannah was super reliable; always on time, and clearly passionate about animals. Kept me informed whenever something was off. Gave me lots of confidence and would definitely hire her again for future trips!”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Downtown
Prices are estimates per day for 1 dog. Pricing may vary based on your search and includes a booking fee of 11%.
About: • Experience with puppies and high-energy breeds • Potty training consistency and routine building • Comfortable with small to medium dogs • Can follow feeding schedules and medication instructions • Skilled with leash walking and structured outdoor time • Familiar with dog park etiquette and socialization Pet care is part of my daily routine, not an afterthought. I structure my schedule around the dogs in my care to ensure they receive consistent attention, exercise, and supervision throughout the day. On a typical day, dogs can expect: • Morning potty break and walk • Structured playtime and enrichment • Supervised social time if comfortable with other dogs • Midday check-ins and affection • Afternoon rest and downtime • Evening walk and wind-down routine
“Roy was amazing with my dog, Canelo! This was Canelo’s first time being cared for consistently, and it really threw him off his regular routine, but Roy handled it perfectly. He was patient, reassuring, and made sure Canelo felt comfortable. He took him on walks and even brought him to the park, which Canelo absolutely loved. I could tell he had a great time and felt safe the whole 3 days. Highly recommend Roy — definitely booking again!”
“Grisel always treats my girl like real family. Always considerate and understanding, and has helped take the very best care of her. She always gets excited when we pull up because she knows she will be loved and have a good time. Highly recommend.”
“Tanisha was fantastic with my dog Morty. My dog is reactive and nervous around new dogs, and she was willing to do whatever it takes to make sure he would feel comfortable with her and her dog. We did a meet and greet, followed by a test overnight board and test daycare. It was incredible to see how well my dog settled in with her. You can tell she cares a lot about the dogs she watches. I got a lot of pictures and videos of my dog while he was with Tanisha (more than I've ever gotten from a sitter). I highly recommend Tanisha!”
“Athena was happy to stay with Janessa. We got cute photo and updates during the day which was really helpful for us because Athena is not used to stay away from us. We had to prolong her stay for a couple of hours and Janessa was super understanding and helpful.”
“Heath Bar didn’t make it easy - he barked the entire time at Danielle’s unless she was there with him, I k ew he had separation anxiety but the only time it presented for the last several years was while he was alone in the car. His being alone in the house was not a problem for him. My take away is to be certain someone will be at home with him for most of the time he will be in someone else’s care. Danielle was very responsive and kept me informed the day Heath was in her care.”
“Thank you Jackie for taking care of our little tee cup chihuahua for the day!! From start to finish the booking was easy and we felt our dog was in great hands. Jackie sent us pictures through out the day, was professional and very easy to communicate with. Would definitely use her again if ever in the area. Thank you!!”
“I couldn't ask for more from a dog sitter. Marcie followed my instructions, provided a comfortable environment with positive stimulation, kept me updated with messages/pics and was just an overall pleasant person. Wonderful job!”
“Wunna was amazing! The moment our dog, Shadow, met him, they got along and Shadow trusted him immediately. He was flexible and accommodating of our schedule. He responded to our messages quickly too, which we really appreciated.”
About: I may not have dogs of my own but I sure do love being around them. Before moving I use to volunteer at an animal shelter and I loved it there just to see how dogs were able to have at least a couple of minutes of happiness from pups to seniors. I also foster kitties and have two of my own! I am currently attending nursing school, so can’t fit a full time job into my schedule. This is the best option because it’s something I love and I can still complete my studies! I would first build trust with the animal ensuring they are not frightened by me. Aside from that I love for the owners to tell me more about their pet to allow me to best adjust my skills to accommodate the pet.
About: I live alone and in a walkable part of the city. Life long lover of dogs and experience with senior dogs and small dogs. Care and command go hand in hand. I work remotely from home and am available weekends and every other Friday. I am an avid walker and live near multiple parks and a popular dog park in town. I care for the dogs by providing them with comforts they would normally get at home such a a bed or toys and treats as well as possible walking routes and parks they may be familiar with.
“Sunshine and Shannon are wonderful and were so kind to me and my pup! They send multiple updates throughout the day and are very understanding of your dogs needs. Thank you both for looking after Ollie!”
“I dropped off my 7 lb chihuahua, Molly, for a daycare session with Hana yesterday, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! I’ll admit I was really nervous at first, Molly is tiny, and there were two other dogs there, one of whom was super excited to meet a new friend. So much energy can make Molly hesitant, but Hana immediately stepped in with calm, confident leadership. She set clear boundaries to help everyone settle down, which made me feel so much more comfortable. Throughout the day, she sent me several videos showing Molly relaxed and happy, calmly hanging out with the other dogs and going for a nice walk. By the end of the day, Molly was curled up on the couch with Hana, her husband, and her two new friends, a huge sign of trust from my usually cautious little dog! Hana showed wonderful leadership, genuine care, and constant attention throughout the day. I left feeling completely reassured and grateful to have found someone so capable and kind. I’ll definitely be booking again!”

“Ollie always loves the days when he gets to spend with Manmeet! In fact at drop off, he usually forgets in there and runs to meet her knowing he's gonna have a great day!”
“Grace was wonderful! She was able to watch Indy on short notice while we spent the day exploring Sacramento, and she took great care of him. She made sure he got plenty of exercise and attention, and it was clear he had a great time with her. It gave us peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. We’d happily book with Grace again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!”

About: I have owned a multitude of pets since I was a child, including dogs, cats, reptiles, amphibians, insects, and rodents. I am adaptable and amenable to all animals and any sort of medical needs, strange likes, and behaviors they might have. I am currently on summer break from college and am therefore available for any time or day of the week. Most of my plans are moveable and I’m very flexible with time. I’m adaptable to whatever your household rules are! I can stay all day or just drop in or even sleep on the couch. Whatever helps you to feel comfortable leaving your precious pet, I will do to the fullest and give them lots of love!
About: Hello! My name is Krystal. I bring a calm, attentive, and personalized approach to every pet I care for. I’ve taken care of many dogs throughout the years. Small dogs, medium dogs, and large dogs. I also had two dogs (one mixed doggy who was 15yrs old and our golden retriever who is now 2yrs old). I’ve come to know that all dogs have different personalities and will adapt to their needs. I love to cuddle them (if they let me) and give them all the pets. Beyond basic care, I focus on building trust. Not just with pets, but with their humans too. I keep you updated with photos, notes, and peace of mind. I’d love the opportunity to care for your furry family member and looking forward to meeting you both! I currently work full time but I work from home W-F and off every other Monday. I have the flexibility to give your animals much needed attention throughout the day. I am able to come walk your dog during lunch or before/after work. I can also watch your pet from my home where I have a friendly dog and cat. If I were to watch your pet, I would ask for their feeding schedule and any medications I’m supposed to give them. A walk is always a must with my visit. Depending on your needs. If your dog was being watched in my home, they would be in safe hands and in an active home. We have a toddler who loves dogs and cats. And dog who would love the opportunity to play and cuddle. We also go on daily walks in the morning and evening.
“Andrea has been walking my dog Jack for a a couple of weeks now and he has been so happy with her! He is skiddish and shy, but has taken very well to Andrea, which I think speaks well of her! They walk during lunch and he is so much more calmer in the afternoons and when I get home. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

I take care of our family pets daily & have done multiple pet & house sits for friends and family.

I love my pets company, giving them things too do like running round and playing chase. Cleaning, Feeding and making sure they're happy and if they need their medicine. Usually taking care or them for most of the day.
“Scott was kind to accept a last minute booking. He was prompt and kind! He took our dogs out for a walk around the neighborhood and they loved him! Thank you!”
About: Hi there! I’m Jenna and I have been around animals all of my life. I have been house sitting/ animal sitting for over 10 years now. I can take care of dogs of any breed, cats, horses, goats etc. I do work full time, but my partner works from home and they are able to provide care when i am at work. We can accommodate special requests I am in an apartment on the 1st floor. We have a dog park, and a lot of grassy areas nearby. I have a camera set up in my living room, that allows me to check on the animal throughout the day. We also have extra toys and treats for animals staying with us.
About: I’ve always had animals around growing up - dogs, cats, bunnies, birds, horses… I took care of my sweet & (very!) energetic dog Missy (golden retriever/lab) for most of her life, and gave her lots of extra attention and medical care in her later years. Recently I’ve been dog sitting for neighbors and friends and it’s such a joy! I love having the opportunity to connect with animals and give them lots of love! 💗 My schedule is currently very open, so I’m available most days of the week as well as some weekends and can generally be available on short notice. I am able to care for your pet(s) in your home according to your specific needs. I’m a respectful and responsible individual and will always treat your home with care!
About: In my younger years I was known as that house you could trust your pets with, which sadly led to less boarding and daycare services and more abandonment of pets on my doorstep. I accepted each surrender because I always figured better here with me then on the streets. After successfully adopting out all these love bugs to people I knew and trusted over the years, I've found myself in smaller quarters. I've found comfort and fulfillment in caring for outdoor cats (commonly referred to as strays) Taking in an orange Tabby to call my own in the process. I've made friends with neighbors who share the same love and passion and through these connections found community - a cat community! I currently care for three cats (siblings), house-sitting as well while their human parents are away. Each individual cat has it's different wants/needs. Through these experiences I've learned gaining trust and love is different for each individual feline. I'm looking to expand my care/services to neighboring cat families mainly because I love cats and know how important it is to have a community of cat folks in your corner when duty, vacation or emergencies call. I'm currently employed by Uber Eats so I make my own schedule. I'm open to weekend care as well. The only thing I do religiously is cultural dancing on Wednesday nights. My current clients are all indoor kitties so I am used to securing the household, feeding on a schedule throughout the day and doing enrichment with them be that play or individual love and cuddle time. I prepare meals specific to each cats needs, keep litterboxes and surrounding areas clean and keeping water stations fresh.
About: Hi! I’m originally from Norway and currently live with my husband and our very friendly cat. Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and caring for them is something I genuinely enjoy. I was the main caregiver for my dog for 11 years, so I’m very used to daily walks, feeding, playtime, cuddles, and making sure pets feel safe and happy. Since then, I’ve also volunteered at animal shelters, fostered cats, cared for neighbors’ and friends’ dogs, and I even had 3 bunnies myself, so I’m comfortable with all kinds of personalities and energy levels. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pets, because they really are family. Whether your pet is playful, shy, energetic, or just wants company and affection, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable, loved, and cared for while you’re away. I’ll treat them like they’re my own❤️❤️ I currently work part time starting around 4 PM, and my husband gets off work around the same time (3:30pm) so there will almost always be someone home to care for your pet. I also have a lot of free time and love to stay active during the day, I love to walk, hike and run,so pet care fits very naturally into my routine. I’m excited to give your pet lots of attention and care while you are away! I always want pets to feel safe and comfortable in my home. We recently moved into our apartment, so there isn’t a lot of clutter or things pets can get into. Our cat is also very nosy, so we’ve already made sure our home is very pet-proof and safe. I pay close attention to each pet’s routine, personality, and any instructions from the owner. Whether that’s walks, feeding schedules, playtime, medication, or just giving them extra attention and comfort, I’ll make sure they feel cared for and at home while you’re away. I also love going on walks and staying active, so dogs will get plenty of exercise, attention, and outdoor time with me💓
“Natalie was awesome and quick to respond, and super friendly! We felt really comfortable leaving our puppy in her hands. Will be booking her again in the future!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 11, including my own family golden retriever and the pets of neighbors and friends! No matter what stage your pup is at, I’ll make sure to take great care of them! I’m a student currently, but on the days I don’t have class or need a break from studying, I like to stay active by walking with furry friends. I keep a tight schedule when taking care of pets, making sure to keep pups on their regular routine when their parents are away. I can accommodate any needs be that dietary, crating, activities etc. My main priority is to keep your pup healthy and happy.

“Marina is incredibly responsive and provided wonderful care for my old dog. I can tell my dog likes her visits and walks. Marina is attentive, asks questions, and overall very caring. Highly recommend Marina!”
About: Animals have been part of my life from the very beginning. My family raised and cared for pets of all kinds, including Maine Coon show cats, a golden retriever, and a yorkie. I grew up surrounded by them, learning early how to read behavior, provide steady care, and build trust with different personalities and species. The only time I ever lived without an animal in my home was during my first two years of service in the Air Force. Since then, I have continued to share my life with dogs, cats, and the occasional more unusual companion such as a bird, a ferret, and a snake. Every one of them has been loved and treated as family. These days I share my home with Daxter (my orange tabby) and Catarina and Beretina (two crazy torbie sisters) who keep life entertaining in all the best ways. I am a veteran currently in school and I work part time as a martial arts instructor. Outside of that, I enjoy drawing, playing guitar, and video games. Among my friends I have become the go to pet auntie because I care for their animals as if they were my own. My goal is to bring that same level of attentiveness and genuine care to every pet I look after. Whether they are shy, energetic, quirky, or easygoing, I meet each animal with patience, respect, and a calm presence so they feel safe while you are away. I currently work part time as a martial arts instructor during the day, but my schedule is extremely flexible to accommodate both you and your pets’ needs I care for every pet with a focus on respect, clear communication, and their individual comfort levels. Whether a cat or dog is shy, social, or a little spicy, I follow their cues and let them set the pace. With many years of experience, including caring for my own three cats (Daxter, Catarina, and Beretina), I’m very attentive to both physical and emotional needs and quick to notice changes in behavior or stress. Your peace of mind matters just as much as your pet’s. If you’re away, I provide consistent updates and photos as often as you’d like so you always know how they’re doing. I welcome specific instructions or preferences because every pet has their own routine and every owner has their own comfort level. My goal is simple: your pet feels safe and content, and you feel confident that they’re in good hands.

Additionally, Michael kept me apprised with regular updates and photos, which eased my mind so that I could enjoy my trip. I would definitely book with Michael again!”
“We highly recommend Grisel to care for your dog. She took excellent care of our 15 year old dog Lexxie for 44 consecutive days while my husband under went a transplant at Stanford. Because of Lexxie’s age she is on medications for her kidneys & liver in addition to a special diet. Grisel followed instructions in all aspects of Lexxie’s care even taking her to have her monthly visit to have her nails trimmed and contacting us when she needed to see the Vet for a possible eye infection. Because of an old leg injury Lexxie could not take long walks with the other dogs Grisel cared for, so, Grisel borrowed a wagon to place her in to enjoy “walking “ with the other dogs. We plan to schedule some doggie day care days with Grisel so that Lexxie can maintain the friendships she made.”

“We loved Manuel and his little buddy Chewie! Loving, responsible, Sherman was very happy when we picked him up and seemed to have been super well taken care of❤️”
“I cannot say enough good things about my experience. Leaving Atlas for a full week was a huge step for me. He is a rescue dog who has experienced trauma, and this was the very first time I had left him with someone since adopting him two years ago. From the moment I dropped him off, she understood exactly what he needed. Rather than pushing interaction, she gave Atlas the space and time to come to her on his own terms while he adjusted to a new environment. That patience and understanding meant so much to me. Throughout his stay, she sent frequent updates and pictures, which gave me tremendous peace of mind. She was always quick to respond whenever I reached out and made sure all of my instructions were followed carefully. If anything wasn’t clear, she asked questions rather than making assumptions. Most importantly, she treated Atlas like family. He received plenty of snuggles, attention, and playtime; including one of his favorite activities, fetch. It was obvious that she genuinely cared about his comfort and happiness. She went above and beyond to make both Atlas and me feel comfortable, and I am so grateful for the care she provided. The biggest sign of how well she cared for him came when I picked him up. Atlas was incredibly excited to see me, but after greeting me he ran back over to her for one last snuggle before we left. As his mom, that told me everything I needed to know about how safe, loved, and comfortable he felt during his stay. I would absolutely trust her with Atlas again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a thoughtful, reliable, and compassionate dog sitter.”
“Doh was an absolute lifesaver taking care of Dodger last minute. She was very responsive, attentive, and made me feel completely at ease during his stay. This was Dodger’s first time boarding overnight with someone else, and she did an amazing job keeping me updated with pictures and messages letting me know how he was doing. I truly appreciated her communication and care, and I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.”
