“Rachel watched our dog for 10 days while we were out of the country. This was the first time to be away from our dog for more than a night. Rachel was great, regularly sending us updates and pictures. Our dog enjoyed being around other dogs. We will definitely take our dog to her again.”
“We’ve used Zaire and Jorge several times now and wouldn’t go anywhere else. They are professional, send great updates, and truly care for my Aspen like their own. It’s such a relief to have a sitter we can trust completely.”
“Anyi was very kind! She send me pictures every day and was quick responding to messages. I appreciated her flexibility for drop off and pick up, especially since we got delayed for pick up.”
“This was Toffeenut's first time being babysat without his big bro, but I can tell he had fun with the other doggies in the home. Thank you, again, Leah for taking care of my baby boy. And thanks for assisting me with canceling Frappuccino's reservations after he passed.”
“Kathy did a great job taking care of Charlie. She sent me lots of updates and introduced him to mango, one of his new favorite treats. I felt very comfortable that he was well taken care of during his stay. Thank you Kathy!”
“This is my dog second stay with Xi and he loves it. I have no worries leaving him with her . She is very attentive and caters to the dogs needs. He is old and she takes grate care of him. He will be back for a mother visit soon”
“Boris and Olga were amazing dog-sitters. They sent me continuous updates and pictures. My dog looked really happy and calm in all. I highly recommend them.”
“Jung Eun took in our Muffy at the last minute as we had a family emergency. She was also kind enough to drop her to the next Rover family. We are very thankful. Also appreciate her regular pictures and update. Thanks !”
“Marcee and family are awesome! They accommodated a last minute request to watch our dog over a holiday weekend, when a different sitter fell through. Marcee is fantastic with communication and it's obvious that she is an animal lover who will treat your pet as if it were her own. We definitely plan to have Marcee watch River again in the future!”
“Sriram & family are the best dog sitters we have hired on Rover. Got daily pictures of our dog with smiles on our dogs face. Our dog Dou Dou was completely relaxed and felt at home with Sriram. Highly recommend this dog sitter.”
“Pissamas is wonderful. My dog had a joyful stay with her, and she was a great communicator who made sure that all of his needs were met. I will definitely return in the future!”
“It was a great experience for my three boys. They came home happy and well exercised. We will be booking with them from now on. The communication was quick and we received lots of cute pictures.”
“Anto is an absolute best person. She loves dogs and keeps them just like her own, that’s all you expect from someone you’re leaving your pet to. She gave me timely updates, was accommodating with Alfys habits and provided the right kind of play and exercise. I would definitely recommend her.”
“Julie and Anthony were awesome. They were able to watch our pup last minute, which was a huge help. They sent a lot of pictures. We felt completely comfortable with Luna staying there. If we are ever in San Jose, we will be reaching out to them again!”
“Yingying and her husband are absolutely wonderful! They were attentive, caring, and kept us updated frequently, which we truly appreciated. Toasty is a quirky little dog with lots of personality, and they embraced all of her quirks with so much love. Before boarding, we met to introduce Toasty to Gulu and Idol and to make sure everyone got along. Yingying and her husband also asked thoughtful questions to learn how to best care for Toasty and to ensure it would be a good fit on both sides. This was the biggest green flag for us as it showed how seriously they take pet care and how much they value creating a safe, loving environment for everyone. When we picked Toasty up, she even tried heading back toward their home after a brief walk around the neighborhood 🤣 and a neighbor came out to say goodbye to her. These were proofs she had made herself right at home and was clearly well loved during her stay. We couldn’t have asked for better sitters!”
“We had a wonderful experience boarding Tangyuan with Queenie and Yu-Ching! They were incredibly respectful, communicative, and thoughtful throughout the entire stay. They brought all of Tangyuan’s favorite toys and showered him with so much love and care—it truly felt like a second home for him. We’re so grateful to have found such kind and attentive sitter!”
“Monica and Gary were great with our pup, Copper! Unfortunately, Copper got a little sick (he has a sensitive stomach) but Monica and Gary took care of him so well. Gave him lots of love and sent us updates.”
“Meng did such a great job watching our dog over the weekend! She was very thorough and attentive to our 12-year old dog’s needs, plus she kept in contact and sent updates and pictures. Can’t wait to book another stay with her!”

“We had a great experience with Hsuan-Chu. She took such good care of our cats and really spent time playing with them, which they loved. Clove is usually pretty shy and nervous around new people, but she actually felt comfortable with Hsuan-Chu and even warmed up to her, which meant a lot to us. Cumin also enjoyed spending time with her and clearly had a great time playing. Communication was easy, we always got thoughtful updates, and we could tell they were both happy and well cared for. We’d definitely book with her again.”
“Yi is an amazing pet sitter. She took great care of my cat who absolutely adores her. She gave my cat plenty of play time, treats, cuddles, fresh water and clean litter. She took the time to meet up with me and my cat to learn about our space, my cat’s personality and needs. She was respectful of my home and was a great communicator. I would definitely book with Yi again!”
“Ashley took excellent care of my cat Jack! She was responsive, loving, played with him, sent great photos, and even helped with the packages. I would definitely book her again!”
“We were totally lucky to have found Haley for our trip! Not only is she professional and skilled at taking care of cats (both of my cats including the skittish one warmed up to her within 2 visits and they are playful and happy upon our return—no signs of stress at all lol), but she is a super positive and generous person who has a caring heart. It was so easy communicating with her. She responds quickly and gives detailed updates every time she visits. She took so many cute pics and videos of our cats during each visit that our family were able to laugh and rest at ease during our 5-day travel. She is just beyond awesome and I can’t seem to put my gratitude in words. Your fur babies will thank you if you book with Haley. She is truly amazing and I hope to work with her again. Thank you!!”
“Kristin is outstanding. She is super caring and attentive to the kitty, and I feel very comfortable knowing that she is visiting every day while I’m away. She did daily check-in’s with photos, and confirmed how the kitty was doing. I highly recommend!!!”
“Athena took great care of the cats and took lots of photos. They knocked down a wall shelf while we were gone, and she even helped clean up the mess for us. You can count on Athena.”
“We had a great experience! She took wonderful care of my fur baby. Muffin was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. We really appreciate her kindness and attention to detail, and would definitely book with her again. Highly recommend!”
“Elena was great! We needed a last minute sitter for our two cats and Elena was happy to help! She was very responsive and from the pictures we received we could tell our cats loved her. Highly recommend!”
About: I focus on calm, dependable, and attentive care. I know cats can be sensitive to changes, so I try to keep their routine consistent and make visits feel low-stress and comfortable. I’m patient with shy cats, gentle with senior cats, and always pay attention to details like appetite, litter box habits, and behavior changes. I also send clear photo updates so owners can feel reassured while they are away.
“Another great booking with Erin! For the third time she has been coming to my home to take care of my cat while I am away. As always, she is very caring, tentative, and loving to my cat’s needs. She communicates fast and clearly. You cannot go wrong with Erin.”
“Dylan took excellent care of my two cats. He made sure Gizmo got his medication, fed both cats correctly, and kept the litter box clean. Thank you for the adorable photos of Luna and Gizmo during each visit. They are looking forward to seeing you next time :)”
“Conner was awesome- we needed someone to watch our elderly cat and bunny rabbit and Conner was an awesome choice! He was a clear communicator and we felt that our animals were very well taken care of! Thanks Conner!!’”
“Nasrin made the whole process simple and stress free. She communicated clearly and kept me updated. My cat warmed up to her quickly and seemed to genuinely enjoy their time together. I would happily book her again.”
“Kasandra did a great job taking care of my cat - daily updates with photos & did exactly as asked - she also did a great job working with my schedule & she's great at communicating - would highly recommend to friends & family.”
“Qianwen took great care of my cat for two days. My cat is usually very shy and takes a while to warm up to new people, so I was really surprised and happy to see her playing with Qianwen on the first day. Qianwen also cleaned the litter box and sent thoughtful photo updates. I’d definitely book with her again!”

“Ahiram and her husband are amazing daycare sitters. They were very attentive and incredible with updates and responsiveness. Love the patience with our two kraken monsters (our dogs lol)”
“This is probably my nth booking with Ru, and there’s a reason I keep coming back. Ru’s reliable, caring, and clearly love the dogs she watches. Mochi gets so excited every time she visits and always comes home happy. Sometimes she seems like she’d rather stay a little longer! I always feel completely at ease knowing she’s in such good hands. Thank you for taking such great care of her. See you next time! 😊🐶”
“She was so nice and communicated effectively. We really appreciated how flexible she was with us. We’d definitely have our Bhaloo stay here again when we’re in town. He had a great time.”
About: I’ve been a true dog-and-cat person since junior high. Growing up, I was basically the “head zookeeper” of our home (2 dogs, 2 cats!), so I’m comfortable with all kinds of personalities, energy levels, and quirks.Now, as a full-time WFH professional based in San Jose, I’m home all day—meaning your pup gets constant attention, care, and companionship. I don’t just watch dogs—I treat them like family from the moment they walk through the door. ❤️ The "SJC Convenience" 🛫 Traveling soon? I’m located in San Jose, just about 20 minutes from San Jose Mineta International Airport, making drop-off easy and convenient on your way to the airport.I’m also happy to accommodate last-minute bookings and unexpected travel plans—if your trip comes up suddenly, you can count on me for reliable care. This is your dog’s second home ❤️ - Total Supervison: I’m home 24/7. No lonely pups here! 🏠 - Built-in Bestie: Our friendly Cockapoo puppy is always down to play. 🐩 - Same-Day Ready: Urgent daycare or emergency boarding? No problem. ⚡ - Photo Updates: I’ll send plenty of pics so you can relax on your trip. 📸 I have a remote job, so your dog will have 24/5 companionship and supervision during the week. I offer boarding Monday through Friday and are always open for last-minute or same-day bookings for those urgent needs. I also provide walking services when I don’t have pups boarding at home. While I focus on weekdays, I’m happy to discuss weekend care for my regular, returning clients! Safety is my top priority, and since I’m home full-time, I’m always there to keep a close eye on everyone. I have a friendly young Cockapoo in our apartment, but I’m very careful about how dogs interact. If your pup is a bit shy or just isn't in the mood to meet our puppy, I can easily give them their own dedicated room to relax in so they feel completely comfortable and at ease. I’m also happy to follow whatever routine your dog is used to at home. If you prefer they be crated for naps or bedtime, I can definitely make that happen. Whether they are playing with our pup or enjoying some quiet time, they’ll be treated like a member of our family the whole time they are here.
“HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! I come to San Jose for business at least once a week and I always leave my dogs with Yifei! She’s very responsive, ALWAYS takes them on walks, and great with sending pics all day! Ps : she has the sweetest golden retriever!”
“Sofiya was very kind. It was my first time leaving my dog with someone. She sent pictures of Westley so I felt better about leaving him. He looked like he was having a wonderful time. He was in a great mood when I picked him up!”
About: I come from a big animal family & have been taking care of dogs & cats since little. I am currently living with my partner, where we own 2 adorable cats, Kiwi & Michi. Over the years, I have been entrusted by friends, family, and co-workers to look after their furry friends when they are away, both for short and long periods. I am comfortable with administering medication, feeding, walking, and playing with pets to ensure their well-being and happiness. As an animal lover, I love taking cute pictures & fun videos to leave you feeling at ease on your next vacation. 💻 I am working from home full-time in the tech industry, which allows me to be flexible throughout the week, ensuring my schedule can be adapted to all your pets needs. I can provide pet care services during the day, in the evenings, and on weekends. 🏡 I live in a 902 sq/ft pet-friendly apartment with natural sunlight and big windows. Right next to my apartment is a spacious grass park that any dog would love. My apartment is equipped with an Indoor Ring camera, allowing me to check, communicate, and record everything that happens. When caring for pets in a client's home, I prioritize the animal's comfort and well-being. This includes ensuring that they have access to food and water, and providing exercise and playtime. I also make sure to keep the home clean and tidy and to follow any specific requests provided by the pet's owner. Don't hesitate to let me know if you ever need someone to water your plants, check the mail, or bring in packages! Above all, I provide lots of love and attention to the pets to ensure they feel comfortable and happy while their owner is away.

This was my first Rover experience and it went really well. I highly recommend Linda because she treats your pup as if it were her own!”

“I contacted Eris on very short notice for day care due to a last minute event and I did not want to leave my puppy Blue alone for more than 8 hours. She responded quickly and we did meet and greet on the same day. Blue is very energetic and friendly and got along with her dogs and the other puppy she was boarding. She kept me updated on their walks and play times through videos and pictures. I am very happy with her amazing attention to detail and care for my pup! I will definitely consider her for future services. Thanks again!”

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!”
“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!!”

About: I've raised a dog from 10 months to his senior years and now own a cat. I'm extremely comfortable walking very long distances (2 hrs+) so I can definitely fulfill your dog's walking needs!

Weekdays are almost completely free as well as most weekends. If house sitting, I'll definitely check in with what you're comfortable with and send picture updates! When dog walking I will keep them on leash at all times.

“Sydney is a very nice young lady and makes an effort to understand what your needs are and your pet’s needs too. My boy doggo sniffed her and liked her immediately. They went on a walk and he came back so happy. I appreciated the wonderful walk they had and Sydney’s care for my precious boy.”

She’s been very thorough, follows my directions, and even offered to measure Rosie’s food portions to be accurate. I feel rest-assured with her knowing she’s in great hands! She also was patient when the leasing office was closed, and waited almost half an hour to retrieve keys to get into my apartment.”
“Am adding the 5 stars to my prior review... Jamie is a mature, caring and capable pet person. We have a very anxious dog and Jamie was very understanding - taking the time to get to know him.

“We couldn’t have asked for a more thoughtful and dedicated dog sitter than Qi. From the very beginning, she demonstrated genuine care, attentiveness, and professionalism in looking after our beloved dog, Bear. It was immediately clear that she treats every pet as if they were her own. Qi went above and beyond to ensure Bear was not only well cared for, but also happy, comfortable, and loved while we were away. She kept us updated with regular messages and photos, which gave us complete peace of mind. Her attention to detail, reliability, and warm nature truly set her apart. When we returned, Bear was relaxed, content, and clearly had formed a bond with her—a true testament to the exceptional level of care she provides.
