“Kimberly really showered Cirrus with love while we were out of town for the weekend! This means a lot to us since Cirrus is a very social dog and so really reciprocates human emotions. She also took great care of his daily needs well per instructions. Highly recommend!”
“Andrea was a perfect sitter! My dog can be pretty shy with new people but she seemed to get comfortable with Andrea pretty quickly. And I really appreciated how much Andrea went out of her way to make her comfortable. Also really appreciated Andrea's communication - loved all the texts and pictures I got during the stay and also all the communication before as well. Would definitely leave my dog with Andrea again!”
“Brandon was amazing! This was my first time using a sitter and from the very first meeting Brandon made me feel at ease that Joey would be well cared for. He leaned in and understood Joey’s numerological issues and was super accommodating. While I was out of town, Brandon sent twice daily updates including photos / videos to ensure I had total peace of mind. I can’t recommend Brandon highly enough, especially if this is your first time using a sitter. I will definitely be using Brandon again to watch Joey. Thank you Brandon!!!!”

“Dylan was so great with Romi. He did a good job communicating with me while we were gone and had Romi - who can be quite a picky eater - scarfing her food right away. He even sent her home to us with a fun back scratching toy that she took a liking to while she stayed with him! Would definitely have Romi stay with him again!”
“Abdel was great! Easy pickup and drop off. Reyka seemed very content when we came back to get her and gave him a kiss goodbye before we headed out. Definitely gonna ask for his help again.”
“Thank you so much for taking such great care of Choo Choo! Communication was excellent, and you always responded quickly, which gave me peace of mind. I really appreciated the tour of your place, and I loved that you have a balcony where Choo Choo could hang out. You were also very accommodating with all of my requests. It was obvious that you genuinely cared about Choo Choo and wanted the best for him. I would definitely book with you again and highly recommend you to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter.”

We will be asking her to sit Nina again.”

“Fabiano was an incredible Rover sitter, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book with him again. Before the stay, we met up for a walk so our dogs could get to know each other. His dog, Noah, is incredibly sweet, and it gave me a lot of confidence knowing they’d be a good fit. During the stay, Fabiano sent regular updates and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear my dog was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. He was also very flexible and accommodating with scheduling, which I really appreciated. If you’re looking for someone who genuinely cares about your dog and communicates throughout the stay, I highly recommend Fabiano. My dog had a great experience, and so did I!”
“Timothy was great with Ruby. During our first initial meeting with him, my partner and I felt comfortable and that Ruby was in the right hands. Even her brother, Maui, liked him. We appreciated the updates he sent during the middle of the day of her stay with him, which gave us ease that Ruby was doing well.”
“We are back and very grateful for taking care of our dog Izzy, Sue is very caring, she gave us consistently updates, we trust Sue and recommend her highly.”

“Rachel was FANTASTIC! The best Rover experience we could have asked for - she was kind, attentive, detailed, and clearly loved our two kitties nearly as much as we do! Thank you again for your attention to detail & all the photos! We couldn’t recommend Rachel more!”
About: I'm an animal lover who treats your furbabies like they're my own. I have several years of experience caring for cats and kittens of all ages and personalities. I have fostered multiple cats and kittens through The Dancing Cat and Chicago Cat Rescue, including kittens as young as 4 weeks old. I'm great at socializing kittens, teaching cats tricks, managing multi-cat households with different needs—and most importantly, making sure your furry friends feel loved. My own cats have trained me to be reliable, detail-oriented, and attentive to their unique needs ranging from adhering to a specific feeding routine, to administering a variety of medications, to ensuring they receive ample playtime and affection. I know new people can be stressful for cats so I bring a calm, patient, and nurturing presence to help them feel safe. My goal is to go above and beyond for your cats!
“Xinyuan couldn’t have been more generous with her care and patience with my cat - who is very skittish but eventually came around to play with her! Super grateful to have had her again and couldn’t trust anyone more.”
“Keng-Chieh was wonderful and my picky cat liked her (and she doesn't like many pet sitters). Keng-Chieh did a great job of taking pictures and chronicling what happened during the visit.”
“Alison was excellent! She is kind, responsible, helpful and we will definitely book her again. She followed all our instructions and went above and beyond them. Thank you for watching our cats!”
“Yue Yue is an amazing cat sitter that I highly recommend! One of my cats had a health situation right before I left. Yue Yue was very understanding and did an excellent job adjusting. My cats clearly had a great time hanging out with her.”
“Sean did a great job taking care of our kitty cats. When we returned home they had nice silky fur :) Great communication and we would happily rebook. Also, the photos of our boys were very high quality, we were impressed!”
“Andrea's super attentive and caring and followed all instructions wonderfully! She got along really well with my cat, would definitely book again in the future!”
“Kimberly did an amazing job taking care of my cat, Yuzu. She sent detailed daily updates along with photos, which gave me peace of mind. She also went above and beyond by proactively topping off the litter and taking out the trash. It’s clear she is experienced and Yuzu easily warmed up to her. I would absolutely book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a thoughtful, reliable sitter.”
“Alex was the best sitter for our cat. He was so patient with her as she got comfortable in his home and she was sooooo happy there. He had her for an extended stay and sent pictures and notes to let us know how she was doing. Communication was excellent which I really appreciated. I wouldn’t hesitate for a second to have him take care of Lima again. Thank you!!”
“So happy that we Charles was able to watch our babies! He was very communicative which we appreciated while being so far away from home. Will definitely have him watch our cats again if he’s available.”
About: When I was a small child I was gifted a tiny kitten I had to bottle feed, and I was uuuubbbbssessed! Then one day he was let out and I never saw him again, & was heartbroken promised myself I’d have one again. My life has been filled with dogs since I was a child, and I owned dogs for over 16+years. But cats have always called me, even though I could never have one in the past. So instead, I’ve taken care of my friend’s evil lil cat off and on for about 6+ years. Meeko swears he really hates me but I love him. So all I do for him is feed him and give him water. Sometimes he’ll let me feed him a churru, but will moan and groan the whole time. Though I now have a kitten 🐈⬛ named Taco. He is only a crazy kitten, so I don’t know what more to prepare for. Taco’s litter box is cleaned/scooped every other day. (Or depending on how many presents he leaves me🤭) The only experience I have with giving medication, was when Taco was spayed and I had to administer liquid oral medication to him for some days. I look forward to watching your puurrrrfect companion and learning new things from them. ☺️
“Maria did a fantastic job with my two adult cats - one of whom has epilepsy and needs medication twice daily. I appreciated the care and attention she provided them and the photo and video updates.”
“Merle was an amazing drop-in pet sitter to my two rabbits! She replied very quickly to my request for bunny-sitting, and was easy to communicate with throughout. Bunnies can be pretty particular, and I was worried about leaving them for long, but Merle was so interested and curious about caring for them, and gave great updates that calmed all my anxiety. Mochi and Ube felt very comfortable around her, which says a lot since they’re prey animals. I’d highly recommend booking Merle ✨ thank you so so so very much! I look forward to booking with her again!”

She also gave me updates throughout the day which made us feel at ease leaving Paprika for the first time! Paprika had a fun-filled day of walks and playtime. She didn’t want to leave when we picked her up 😆 I would recommend Mary-Frances to anyone and can’t wait to have her watch our pup again.”
About: Stanford professional and gentle dog lover who works 5 days/week from home in South Beach Soma SF. I can only accommodate 1-2 dogs (max) in my 1-BR condo and as I build my boarding experience, giving your dog(s) personalized attention and hugs and love. If you have 2 dogs, they will totally love being alone with me in my clean, cozy condo! I send regular pics and videos to you, so you can have a happy and care-free trip/vacation! And take them down regularly for walks and bio-breaks. :) ADVANTAGES: - Small dog groups (1-2 maximum) - Personalized 1-on-1 attention - Flexible scheduling (appts and cancellations) - Convenient location (easy drop-off/pick-up) DISCLAIMER: I don’t have much experience with untrained puppies and older dogs with complex medication routines. I work from home 5 days/week and can take care of your dogs during the week and weekend (especially long/holiday weekends). I can take them for walks as often as needed, due to my flexible work hours (I barely have any meetings/Zoom calls). You can schedule drop-off and pick-up anytime during the day or night. I live in a 800-sq ft 1-bedroom condo in South Beach SoMa, in the middle of the city, easy for drop-offs and pick-ups. Cute small balcony with artificial grass, where your dogs can sunbathe and enjoy fresh air for hours. Multiple elevators for going up and down (no stairs for your dog to climb). I only wish to accommodate 1 dog at a time, but 2 dogs are fine if they are siblings. If you have 2 dog siblings, this is the perfect place to drop them off, as they will be the only dogs with me.
“My dog had so much fun and was well taken care of. Also was willing to adjust to my dog’s dietary needs and had clear communication with me. Would recommend 10/10 for anyone looking for a sitter! :)”
“Anthony was one of the best dogsitters I’ve connected with through Rover. He has been super clear with communication, very flexible/accommodating of Fluffy’s needs and my schedule, and most importantly, took super good care of Fluffy. She’s a high maintenance dog that barks a lot, but I could tell immediately that Anthony is very confident in taking care of all kinds of dogs in all situations.”

About: I love all living creatures, big and small. As a child I used to have exotic pets and still have some, such as rats, fish, insects and hamsters. I spent my summers at the small farm helping take care of hens, roosters and baby chicken, as well as tortoise Chapa and multiple cats of the property. Upd from 09/2025: I started my Rover journey in September 2024, and it has been a year! A year of trust from you, my two-legged clients, and you, my four-legged fur-covered VIPets. Since that September, some things have changed: my part-time job is now on a different schedule, so I can visit your cats and walk your dogs in the mornings and afternoons, 9am - 1pm, and/or later in the evening, 7pm-10pm. All the rest is the same: I will follow your instructions, play and interact with your pet according to their personality, wash their food and water bowls before putting food and water there, clean their litter box and, if needed, clean little unfortunate events from the bathroom floor. I will report with photos of your pets, trying to catch the best angle, and with a little note on how our visit went for both them and me. Thank you again, all the families who trusted me this year, and welcome to all new families to come. --- 2024: I have part-time job so I can visit your pets on weekdays 10am to 5pm, play with them, clean after them, give them food and of course lots of hugs (if they are in the mood). At my home I clean, feed and pet my fur-and-scale babies on a daily basis, taking care of their physical and mental health. At your home I will take care of your pet's needs in food and water, clean their toilet as needed, play with them and scratch their backs to provide sence of comfort and love.
“Alison was great with my pup, and I’d highly recommend her! My pup came back content and worn out from her walks with Alison, which for me is the most I can ask for an apartment dog.”
“Jungeun is consistent, kind, and goes above and beyond to communicate with us and take care of our senior dog. We are so grateful for all of the care she puts in to walking Cooper! Thank you!”
About: Lifelong dog owner with over 25 years of pet-sitting experience and 400+ volunteer hours at animal shelters. Reliable, attentive, and passionate about every pup. I work from home full-time with a flexible schedule and am available for dog walks and drop-in visits during select weekdays, evenings, and weekends. I love getting outside with dogs and will always make sure your pup gets plenty of exercise, attention, and care. I’ll communicate clearly and send photo updates after every visit so you know they’re in great hands. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I’ll always follow your care instructions, use secure leashing practices, pay close attention during walks, and make sure your pet has fresh water and plenty of affection. I’ll treat your home with respect and keep you updated with photos and notes after each visit so you can have peace of mind. Having cared for dogs my entire life, from running a pet-sitting business for over 10 years to volunteering 400+ hours at an animal shelter, I understand that every dog has different needs and personalities.
About: What sets me apart is that I don’t just care for pets—I build trust with them. I take the time to understand their personality, comfort level, and daily routine so they feel relaxed and valued. I’m dependable, patient, and committed to giving each pet the same kindness and attention I would want for my own. From keeping playful pets entertained to providing calm companionship for older or more sensitive animals, I focus on creating a safe, loving environment where pets can feel comfortable while their owners are away. Pet care fits perfectly into my current routine because I have a flexible schedule during the week and enjoy spending my extra time doing something meaningful. I currently work part-time on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays, which leaves me plenty of availability to provide reliable care, attention, and companionship for pets throughout the week. I see pet sitting as more than just a side job—it’s an opportunity to spend time with animals, keep them comfortable in their own environment, and give pet parents peace of mind knowing their pets are cared for by someone dependable and loving. I care for pets by creating a safe, comfortable, and stress-free environment where they can feel at ease. In a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal as possible by following feeding schedules, providing playtime, cleaning up after them, and giving them plenty of attention and affection. I understand that pets feel most comfortable in familiar surroundings, so I take the time to learn their habits, preferences, and needs. Whether it’s walks, cuddles, enrichment, or simply keeping them company, I provide dependable care that helps pets feel happy and secure while their owners are away.
About: I will always make sure your pet is the number one in my space, or their own. Love is a universal language that I empathize with all of my clients and their companions! I have no life so feel free to give me one! I miss my family pets back in Michigan and hope that it reflects in the work I perform. I will always maintain clear communication on what your pet needs, when they need it, and keep yours and my space both tidy, clean, and safe of anything that may cause your furry little family any type of distress!
“We were so thankful to have Genna's help last minute when we needed it. She was super at communicating with us. Pups were so happy to have her hang out and walk with them. We feel so lucky to have found her. Highly recommend and will be reaching out for help again. Thanks Genna!”
About: Somehow dogs can sense my sincere love for them because I’ve always had a way with them. I have definitely been called the dog whisperer! I am currently unemployed so have a lot of free time on my hands, which means I have a relaxed energy which the dogs feel! I am very open and intuitive with animals. It’s more of a collaboration rather than mere domination. I am stern when necessary but always loving.
About: I am a responsible, experienced dog/cat owner-lover and will treat yours like my own. I was raised in a family that had dogs including 3 dachshunds, a mutt, and a chow over the years. As an adult I have been the loving pet parent to three adult cats consecutively. Very comfortable around cats and dogs. Available for dog-walking, cat/dog drop-in's, and daytime extended stay drop-in's / house-sitting (no overnights). I have worked remotely for over ten years so have a very flexible schedule. Walking your dog or visiting your cat would be a pleasure and a chance for some fresh air and exercise. I do this for supplemental income during my free time and the opportunity to visit different neighborhoods. I am available daytime hours, not overnight (mid-morning til before sunset). I will give your cat or dog as much or little attention in your home as you (or they!) specify. Reliable, trustworthy. Not able to care for your pets at my home.
“Angela is amazing and very thoughtful. Our dog is a bit shy around strangers and she did a great job building his trust giving him the exercise he needed without overwhelming him.”
“Abigail has been so great! My dog Dexter loves her, and he and her dog get along super well. Abigail is very communicative and always sends lots of photos, which I very much appreciate. Overall, Abigail takes very good care of Dexter and I would highly recommend her to anybody looking for a caring and attentive dog sitter/walker!”
“I recently hired Selena to walk my dog while I was out of town for three weeks, and I couldn’t be happier with her service. She is incredibly friendly, punctual, and reliable—qualities that gave me total peace of mind while I was away. My dog absolutely adores her, which is the most important thing to me! Selena goes above and beyond by sending lots of photos and videos after each visit, which made me feel connected to my dog even from afar. Her updates were always detailed and full of happy moments, showing how much she truly cares for the dogs she looks after. I highly recommend Selena to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog walker. She’s simply awesome!”
“Yasmim’s calm and nurturing presence won the trust of our anxious dog. She has gone above and beyond for us and we cannot thank her enough for that! We’re so glad we found Yasmim.”
About: I have been lucky enough to grow up with a family that loved animals and a household full of pets. We had chicken running around our backyard, ducks and quail. We had a cat, Named Kat, who was afraid of the chicken. Somehow always had a pair of parakeets that had the same names, Jasmine & Lightning (don’t ask!). My grandparents had a little farm , so every summer when we would visit, we would drive to the country side and spend a few days there. In June of 2021, I was blessed with 2 beautiful daughters; My cats Penny & Wini who are the actual loves of my life (My husband knows and understands) and they are the most amazing, most perfect thing that ever happened to me. Please do not hesitate to contact me anytime with any questions and I like to try to respond almost as soon as possible if not immediately Looking forward to make even more furry friends in this beautiful city! If you wish to expedite the booking process, please include the following in your message: 1) Location 2) Normal walking/feeding/play routine (length, time of day, etc) 3) Medical/special needs 4) Any aggression issues towards certain people/animals 5) Any additional info I look forward to meeting your furry friends! *Overnight Pricing: For overnight stays, the listed price includes a morning/early evening walk and a potty break before bed (and, of course, snuggles and attention while I am staying inside a home). Any additional walks/special needs may incur an additional charge. **Camera Policy: I had an experience where a client did not inform me of a camera hidden in their bedroom and I was recorded in various states of undress during a stay. As such, in order to protect my privacy, I reserve the right to disable any undisclosed cameras and, in extreme cases, cancel a stay. Please feel free to let me know if any clarification is needed regarding this policy. I’m currently wfh part-time and on summer break from school. My schedule is pretty flexible and I’m able to spend a lot of time with the pets and not be away for more than a few hours if need be. I Follow exact care instructions and all boundaries. I keep pets on the same schedule and routine so they dont go through more change than needed.
About: Hi, we’re Kaki and Seba - newly-wed, working professionals in SF :) We have 3 cats with super different personalities and we adore them all to bits. We love taking funny and cute pictures of them and will definitely do the same for your furbabies 📸 We have extensive experience caring for cats of all ages and temperaments - from young kittens bursting with energy to old senior cats who needed oral & topical medications. Although we’re not currently dog parents, Seba used to take care of a shy Cavapoo at their family home, and we both have experience taking care of dogs small and big. We also have experience with guinea pigs, gerbils, rabbits, and reptiles. Our approach is loving, attentive, and playful. We treat each and every fur-babies like our own, letting them take the lead on how they want to spend our time together🐾 We don’t squeeze our schedule with a lot of pet sitting - we signed up because we genuinely love hanging out with animals :) This means we are not rushing from one visit to another, and we give a lot of attention and care for each and every visit. Currently, Kaki takes the majority of the visits because of a more flexible work schedule, but let us know if you have preference / if you’d like both of us to be there! After ensuring the basic chores are taken care of, we spend the rest of the time playing and hanging out with them for the full duration of time that we’re booked for. Please let us know their favorite activities :)
About: Hi there! My name is Eric and I have been a pet care provider all my life. I owned a private pet care business for almost 8 years that I sold in January 2021. In my first 6 1/2 years, I served over 1,000 unique pets. Before starting my business, I was on track to go to veterinary school, and have worked under 5 veterinarians, including a mobile vet, and at a spay-neuter clinic. You may recognize me from when I worked at San Francisco’s first pet shop, The Animal Company. I taught Pet-CPR and First Aid & have a fair amount of experience with senior cats & dogs, as well as dogs who are reactive & need to avoid interactions with passers-by while out on walks. I can also trim nails, give oral/injectable medicine, administer fluids, etc. I have a pretty flexible schedule; I own a consulting business and travel all over the city for work. I usually don’t work outside of San Francisco- feel free to inquire about my travel rates & availability. Probably not the best fit for a dog who needs someone around the entire day, but if your dog can be left alone for a few hours here & there we might be a good fit 👍🏽 I work remotely so I am pretty flexible in terms of adapting to your pet’s needs. I’m also pretty good at responding to call/text/email right away for added peace of mind.
About: I live in San Francisco with my significant other and I am currently a full-time student. I am an animal lover myself and cared for a few dogs during my Peace Corps Service in southeast Asia. I have had pets all of my life, and am aware of the responsibility and care it takes to have a pet! In previous years, I was a volunteer at the Manchester Animal Shelter and For a Dogs Sake animal rescue league. At the Manchester Animal Shelter, I worked with the cats cleaning out cadges, feeding, and playing. For a Dogs Sake Animal Rescue league, I volunteered to help get dogs off the transport, and walking/feeding before they were met by their new owners. I currently work part-time as I am in the process of changing my career path and going back to school. I am available most dates and times for your pets! I am fully vaccinated. I am a very safe a reliable individual with a passion and love for animals of all kinds. My reviews exhibit the type of pet sitter I strive to be!

“Clovis was awesome! I needed a last minute sitter for my dog, tío and he helped me out in a pinch. He was communicative - sent lots of updates and pics, accommodating, and flexible with pick up and drop off times. And when I picked up tío he was so happy and the perfect level of tired-out. Could not suggest Clovis more!!”
“Go & Misa are the sweetest! They loved Juju like she was their own, and took her to lots of parks and walks - she had a blast & didn’t want to leave LOL. Communication was fast and clear, and I’m grateful for the last minute help when I needed a sitter. I love getting photos seeing Juju living her best life!”
“Westley had such a good time with Kimberly! The photos she sent showed how relaxed he felt in her home. I will definitely reach out to her the next time we need to travel!”
“Victoria was fantastic. Very quick to respond to my booking request. Lots of communication, photos & updates. She provided detailed notes from Gingers stay & went above and beyond to care for my baby! Ginger is anxious leaning, especially in new environments and Victoria hand fed Ginger & even offered some of her dogs food. I would HIGHLY recommend.”
“Katie was wonderful with Fillmore! Communication was great, and she took him on lots of walks and sent pics and updates. He got an upset stomach and she took great care of him. We felt very comfortable having Fillmore with Katie while we were out of town.”
About: Hey there! Are you looking for an experienced dog/cat walker or sitter who also just happens to be a college student desperate for animal companionship? You're in luck! I've grown up around all kinds of animals, and have been caring for other people's pets while balancing my journalism studies at San Francisco State University. I have more than 15 years of experience of pet care, 4 of those being with Rover. I have a relatively flexible schedule and can accommodate most pet's needs! Feel free to shoot me a message and set up a meet-and-greet with your pet to make sure we're a right fit. Looking forward to getting to know you and your pets. :) I currently am in university, but my schedule is extremely flexible and can accommodate whatever you would need. I only have one class on Tuesdays from 4 pm to 6 pm. When you book with me you book with someone who cares just as much about your pet's safety as you do, your pet's wellbeing is my utmost priority and I will do everything in my power to ensure that! I am extremely detail oriented, tidy, and professional.
