About: With over 10 years of hands-on pet care experience, I have developed a strong passion for providing safe, loving, and reliable care for animals of all sizes and personalities. My experience includes daily dog walking, pet sitting, feeding routines, administering basic medications, and caring for pets with different energy levels and needs. I understand that every pet is unique, so I prioritize maintaining their normal routines to help them feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away. Whether it’s an energetic walk, playtime, or quiet companionship, I focus on creating a positive and stress-free experience for both pets and owners. I take pride in being dependable, attentive, and communicative, providing regular updates and photos so pet parents feel confident their pets are in caring hands. My goal is always to treat every pet like family and ensure they feel loved, safe, and well cared for at all times. I work from home, which allows me to have a flexible schedule and dedicate consistent time and attention to the pets in my care. Because I am home throughout the day, I’m able to provide frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship rather than pets being left alone for long periods. My flexible routine allows me to accommodate daytime visits, walks, drop-ins, and extended stays while ensuring pets receive supervision, care, and interaction throughout the day. I prioritize maintaining each pet’s normal schedule to help them feel comfortable, safe, and relaxed while their owners are away. I focus on providing pets with a safe, comfortable, and stress-free environment by maintaining their normal routines as closely as possible. Whether caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, my priority is making them feel secure, loved, and well cared for while their owners are away. In my home, pets receive consistent supervision since I work from home, allowing for regular potty breaks, walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and plenty of attention throughout the day. I create a calm and clean space where pets can relax, play, and feel at home. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect both the pet’s routine and the household environment. I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding, walks, medication (if needed), litter box or yard maintenance, and enrichment activities. I also provide companionship to reduce stress and separation anxiety while keeping the home tidy and secure. Communication is very important to me, so I provide regular updates and photos to give pet parents peace of mind knowing their pets are happy and in trusted hands.
“Havi is very happy to be hope and I can’t thank you enough for all the photos and care you gave him. You made the whole experience positive and took the stress off me. Thank you again!!!”
“Rupert had stayed with Rocky several times and always has a great time. This time around I also had my parents dog Gomy stay with Rocky too and he was very loved as well. Thank you!!!”
“Pissamas was one of the BEST sitters/dog boarding we’ve ever had. We left our dog Toffee with her for 5 weeks this summer (traveling internationally), and felt so comfortable. It was the best decision. She sent us so many videos and pictures, constantly gave us updates on what Toffee was doing that day/week, and what he enjoyed. He always looked so happy. When we went to pick him up, he looked so happy to be with her, and not anxious at all. We will be using Pissamas as our primary dog sitter/ boarder in the San Jose area. Thank you Pissamas for being so wonderful! We can tell Toffee misses you already.”
“Queenie & Yu-Chieh took such great care of Chewie! They were very thorough and kept us updated with pics and videos throughout his stay, which we really appreciated. Chewie looked so happy and had such a great time with them and Summer! We’ll definitely book with them again!”
“Bill is phenomenal. He took such good care of Miley and communicated with me great. She had a wonderful time on all the times he took her to his nearby dog park. When I ran into a flight delay that affected my pick up time, Bill was so understanding and accommodating. Would recommend him to anybody and will definitely look to book with him again!”

“This is our first time using the app, and we had a few last minute changes. We saw previous reviews and decided to try Leah. Not only was she flexible and worked with us, but she was very kind and took great care of our little guy. The following day something else came up and once again she flexed to assist us. Thank you so much for helping us out and allowing us time to flex our plans in this vacation!”
“Li-Ting did an amazing job taking care of our boy while we were out of town! She sent numerous daily videos and photos with detailed updates of his walks and play dates with FaCai. She also took the time to brush him daily so his fur remained silky smooth. I won’t hesitate to book Li-Ting again as she provides a safe home away from home for our boy.”
“Akanksha is awesome. She was super flexible with our pickup and drop off time given that we had flights in and out of SFO and she took great care of our little girl. We loved all the photos she sent us and will definitely be adding her to our list of trusted sitters.”
“This is our first ever dog care experience and Quang was quickly responsive to my needs for last minutes plans. I have a super high energy GSP and and an elderly Porky. He cared for both needs and they returned home tired and happy. I also had to extend the time for care and he helped make that process very smooth. Thank you Quang! I’ll reach out for the next trip.”
“Kimberly is a fantastic communicator, and took such good care of Maggie. I’d never left her with someone other than close friends, especially for almost two weeks. Kimberly was extremely reassuring and provided regular updates and photos as promised. Maggie was a very happy pup when we picked her up, and we will absolutely leave Maggie with Kimberly again in the future.”

I felt completely confident leaving Nini in her care. We’re so very grateful for her!”
“Joleen was absolutely amazing! She took excellent care of my two cats while away on a trip, was able to give my diabetic cat his insulin, and treated them like her own.

He even visited our home an extra time to bring in a perishable package that we'd forgotten was going to be delivered.

“My dog misty went for dog day care and seemed like she had a great day. She was fed, clean and happy upon pick up. As soon as we got home she went straight to sleep. Diana provided pictures throughout the day. I was able to see that misty had a great time with Diana and the other pups.”
“Thank you so much, Ru, for taking such great care of Mochi! She had an amazing time and it’s clear she received so much love and attention while staying with you.

“Dawn is a dream come true when it comes to doggy daycare! My 13 year old mostly blind chihuahua had his very first daycare ever with someone other than family and I can tell you she cuddled him and cared for him like I would have if he was at home. I didn’t think anyone would know his needs but she did! I can’t say enough wonderful things about her but she is a true animal lover and I will bring him back!”
About: Hello! My name is Stephanie! I have owned dogs and pets my whole life and I absolutely love animals. I only care for one guest dog at a time, so your pup gets plenty of personalized attention, love, and care during their stay. I have a 3-year-old Goldendoodle who is super friendly and loves making new friends! I work remotely, so I’m available throughout the week and on weekends for overnight boarding and daycare. I especially love working with recurring families so I can build a relationship with you and your furry friend and help them feel comfortable and at home during every stay. I’m a very outdoorsy person and love taking dogs on adventures, whether that’s going to the park, exploring a dog-friendly trail, or enjoying a nice long walk. We also have a yard for plenty of playtime and outdoor fun! I can’t wait to meet you and give your pup a fun, loving, and personalized home-away-from-home! 🐶💕 I work remote and have a flexible schedule over the week so I will be able to spend all day with your best friend and give them all the love and attention they need while you are away! Your pup will be going on walks throughout the day or a trip to the dog park. I would prefer to watch your pet in my own home but am also open to pet sitting and can make arrangements to visit your pet.
“I'm so grateful to Sofiya and her family we're taking care of Teddy today. I needed a sitter very last minute and I'm so grateful she was available and responded quickly and was flexible when I needed to change the time as well. Teddy seemed to have a great day playing and he is home now already taking a good nap. A perfect day for a puppy. Thank you so much.”
“Ahiram took very good care of my dog & sent updates & photos. I was nervous at first because this is my first time leaving him with someone else but the updates kept me at peace. He was in very good spirits when I picked him up. Left my dog in great paws. 🐾”
“Lana is amazing with pets. She took a lot of time to know about my pups and their needs. She gave me constant updates even for their short stay. Thank you for the adorable pictures!! Lana will be my go-to to care for my pups when I am away.”
“Freddy was anxious when I dropped off Freddy in a new environment. Lu was patient and walked Freddy around to get used to new surroundings. Freddy was comfortable and was eventually chilling on the sofa. Thanks for the videos and timely updates Lu. Also, thanks for the polaroid photo of Freddy's stay! :) It was great meeting you and looking forward to seeing you again!”
“Ana was very caring to our little dog. She’s very thorough and amazing. So lucky to have her take care of Inday. She sends us pictures and videos to keep us updated. Very much recommended!”

She sends regular updates and is always glad to share information about Sally's visit when we come to pick her up. Thank you, Natasha!! : )”
“Soojin was fantastic with my Suki girl for daycare! She sent lots of adorable photos and updates throughout the day, answered all of my questions, and made drop-off and pick-up incredibly easy. I felt completely at ease knowing Suki was in such great hands. My pup came home happy, tired, and content, which is always the best sign. I’m so grateful to have found Soojin and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter. Thank you, Soojin!”
“My 12-year-old dog was in great hands! Amy was patient, caring, and kept me updated while I was at work, which gave me peace of mind. If you’re looking for someone who truly loves dogs and cares for their well being, I highly recommend Amy!”
“Grace took great care of my senior dog, Seal. This was my first time using Rover, and I felt very comfortable. Seal was very happy after her stay. Thank you, Grace!”
“Nadia was reliable and I felt very safe leaving my puppy in her hands. She picked him up every morning at 9am, brought him to her home and returned him at 5pm. He had fun and got to play with other dogs and Nadia gave me peace of mind sending pictures and updates throughout the day. Thank you Nadia for an excellent job!!”
“Our dog is a bit hyper one and Jacqueline made him comfortable in no time. I got updates throughout the days and Ollie seems happy. Will definitely book again for future needs. Highly recommended.”

“I am so grateful to have found Soyoung through Rover! My 8-month old puppy, Archie, had a great time with her at doggy day care while I was in town for work. He had fun playing, going for walks, and zooming up and down her stairs. I loved getting his daily report cards, and he was absolutely exhausted and calm by the time we got back to the hotel in the evenings. I'm thrilled that I can take him with me for work travel because we now have a trusted sitter to rely on. I'm looking forward to future trips to the SCV area so we can book with Soyoung again.”

“Shawna took Penelope and Drexl on an hour walk to tire them out before people arrived at our house for dinner. She did a fantastic job and it worked! They loved the walk and they were nice and sleepy and mellow all evening. I would definitely hire her again. She was really good with excitable Penelope and shy Drexl.”
About: I grew up with English Setters and an American Bulldog, so big dogs with big personalities have always felt like home. I even helped with training our Bulldog, which taught me that consistency, patience, and understanding body language go a long way. Every dog is different, and that’s one of my favorite things about them. Some want to sprint around the neighborhood, some would rather stop and sniff every single blade of grass (and I’ll happily wait while they conduct their very important investigations). I enjoy figuring out what makes each dog feel comfortable, happy, and engaged. Whether your dog is high-energy, a gentle giant, or somewhere in between, I’ll meet them where they are. My goal is simple: make sure they get plenty of exercise, attention, and affection while you have peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. As a mechanical engineering student, my schedule varies a bit throughout the year. I keep my calendar updated to reflect exam weeks and semester schedule changes, including the transition at the end of August. I believe pets deserve unhurried, attentive care, so I only accept bookings I know I can fully commit to. That means when I’m with your pet, they have my full attention, not just a spot squeezed into a busy schedule. I understand that trusting someone with both your pet and your home is a big decision. I’ll always treat your home with the same care and respect I’d expect someone to show mine. I’ll carefully follow your pet’s routine, respect any household rules, double-check doors and gates, and make sure your pet has fresh water, exercise, playtime, and plenty of affection. I’ll also send regular updates and photos so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pet is safe and happy.
“This is the second time I've entrusted Sam with my dog Goose. Sam is uber reliable and I appreciate how quick and easy it is to communicate with her and the love she gives to my dog, beyond walking him--sits with him, makes sure he is calm, etc. Leaving the dog alone is stressful for me and the dog but Sam takes some of the stress out of it (for both of us!)”
“Courtney is absolutely amazing! She’s super responsive, professional and thoughtful. We did a meet and greet that put me at complete ease. My outgoing boisterous pup completely welcomed Courtney into the pack. My shy pup was her shy self, eventually warming up. Courtney knew just how to engage with each of their different personalities and I could tell right away how talented Courtney is with animals. It was our pure good fortune to meet Courtney and I will definitely engage her as often as I can. 😁”
“Son took amazing care of my dog. He is very detail oriented, conscientious, and a wonderful communicator. I would highly recommend him if you are ever in need of care for your animal!”
“Sarah did great job walking Goldie. She was helpful throughout all the walks and very good with communicating. She followed all instructions and did the very best she could do to walk my pet.”
About: I have pet sat for over 10 years, caring for all kinds of animals — dogs, cats, rats, and more. I've been a pet owner my whole life, so I deeply understand the bond between a pet and their family, and I treat every animal in my care as if they were my own. I have taken care of dogs of all ages-old dogs who need medication and young dogs who need plenty of exercise and playtime, so I am fully prepared to adapt to your pets needs. I'm active and love the outdoors, so your dog will always get plenty of walks, playtime, and fresh air. I am currently working part time and have a lot of availability throughout the week and weekends. I can be there whenever you need, morning or night, as well as throughout the day. I do not have any pets at home but I have a great backyard with plenty of quiet residential streets around me that are perfect for walking your pet!
“Suz was so great! Super quick to respond, kept me updated and provided tons of photos - our pup was so happy with her walk. Will be connecting with her again for another walk - and would highly recommend!”
About: Hi there! I'm Joleen, a devoted animal lover with over a decade of experience as a pet parent to my schnoodle, Donut, who I cared for from puppyhood through his senior years. That journey taught me the ins and outs of pet care, training, senior and mobility needs, medication routines, and creating a calm, safe environment for a dog through every life stage. Donut was a quick study too (sit, roll over, shake — the works!), so I have a soft spot for training-minded pups. Having a pet is a true blessing, and I understand how important it is to find someone who will care for your fur baby like family. I ensure that your fur baby is safe by paying close attention to them and attending to their needs when necessary. I’ll also monitor their environment to make sure they feel secure and protected. Whether it’s exploring the outdoors, practicing tricks, or simply providing a comforting presence, I’m here to make sure your pet feels happy, safe, and loved while you’re away. I’m available throughout the week, weekends, and holidays, to meet your pet’s needs. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or drop-in visits, I’m here to provide reliable and supportive care whenever it’s needed. Your pet’s happiness and well-being are my focus, and I can accommodate your schedule to ensure they feel safe and loved. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. During dog walks, I ensure your pup stays secure on a leash, follows your preferred routes, and avoids any potential hazards. For drop-in visits, I carefully follow your instructions for feeding, playtime, and any special care needs, while keeping a close eye on their environment to ensure it’s safe and clean. I pay close attention to details, such as double-checking doors and gates, monitoring your pet’s behavior, and providing updates to keep you informed. Trust is essential, and I’m committed to treating your home and your pet with the utmost respect and care.
“Great experience! Great communication, very punctual, and I really appreciated that they were able to adjust the time last minute so Kira could get her walk in earlier than expected. Everything went smoothly and Kira was happy when I got back. Definitely would book again!”
“Kate was awesome with my Golden Retriever and I would definitely hire her again. Reliable, communicative, trustworthy, professional and friendly. My dog was excited to go on walks with her!”
About: I’ve been an animal lover my entire life! I grew up caring for my senior dog, including giving him medication, taking him on walks, and helping with his care as he got older. I also grew up around horses and have cared for some more unusual pets, including my own ghost mantis! I currently work part-time about three days a week. My shifts vary, but I receive my schedule in advance, which allows me to plan pet care around my work schedule and coordinate availability with owners ahead of time. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always follow their normal routine and any specific instructions closely. I’m respectful of both your home and your pet’s space, and I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away.

“Che is an excellent sitter! He was very kind and accommodating for my dog Teddy. He sent daily updates and followed all instructions/notes carefully. I felt very comfortable leaving Teddy with him and I would be more than happy to book with him in the future. Thank you so much Che!! 😊”
“Jason provided great service watching over Storm my pit bull. His home is very neat and provided a lot of room to run for Storm. I loved the daily updates and picture he provided, gave me peace of mind that she’s fine. Will definitely use Jason again.”
“Vy took great care of my English Bulldog. Got him his meds as scheduled, was flexible around drop off and pickup, sent lots of pics, and communicated promptly. Would definitely leave him with her again.”
“Jacqueline was great. She has excellent communication and you can see clearly that she loves animals. My dog tends to get nervous being away from me and she was very attentive to my dog's needs. I will definitely be booking with her again in the future.”
