“Leaving Oliver with Ezra gave me peace of mind, with regular updates from her, I knew Oliver was taken care of, and also had fun playing with his friends. Excellent service and communication, and Oliver looked super happy!!”
“The BEST rover. Flora and her husband took awesome care of whisky over the weekend. tons of photos and video every day. Took whisky out more frequently than I did. I can tell that flora do love animals from the heart. I would not hesitate to book with flora again in the future.”
“Megha and her husband do a wonderful job watching our dog Momo. They sent us many photos and updates, and were very considerate about momo's reactivities (food). I will definitely drop Momo off with them again, as he and Barfi had a wonderful time together. Thank you again!!!”
“Lanie and her family took great care of Bentley! She was great at keeping us updated with texts and photos, and running things by us as questions arose. We would definitely recommend Lanie!”
“Pallavi really took great care of Corki. We did a meet and greet which made us really comfortable boarding him. She was good with communicating and sent hs regular updates and pic throughout the stay. Seemed like he was part of their family and felt at home. Will surely recommend. Pallavi was also very flexible during pickup.”
“We had a wonderful experience with our dog sitter. She is extremely responsible and reliable, and we work with her regularly. Every day, she kept us updated by sending pictures of Daisy, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. She also went above and beyond by grooming Daisy, which we really appreciated. When our flight was delayed, she was very understanding and kindly agreed to watch Daisy for a few extra hours without any hesitation. We’re truly grateful for her care and dedication. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive dog sitter.”
“Karri, Michael and Hank were incredible! They treated my dog like a member of their family. The daily pictures and updates reassured me that my dog was having a great time. Karri and Michael really pay attention to the details and went above and beyond to make both me and my dog feel comfortable. My family and I ran into some travel delays and they were so wonderful and accommodating, they watched my dog an extra night without question. Their dog Hank is my dog's new best friend! Thank you guys so much!”
“Would definitely book again! Him and his family were caring and kind to her while we were away for a few days. He sent multiple updates throughout her stay. Finally found a permanent sitter to come.”
About: While you’re on vacation, let your pet enjoy one too! I strive to give the true ‘grandma experience’ lots of love, plenty of comfort, and maybe just a little extra spoiling. I’ve been a Rover sitter for over three years now. In that time, I’ve fully embraced the idea that pets are permanent toddlers—full of personality, always curious, often dramatic(lol), and in constant need of love (which I’m more than happy to give!). I have experience with special case rescues, reactive dogs who need extra patience and understanding, bouncy puppies figuring out the world, and senior pets who want a cozy nap buddy. No matter their quirks, I treat every pet like my own—whether that means endless belly rubs, silly conversations, or just being their snack dispenser. My goal is to make their time with me feel like a fun vacation, so while you’re off relaxing, you can rest easy knowing your pet is having just as much fun (if not more)! **I am a SUCKER for pitties and long snoots:)) I work fully remote, so I have plenty of flexibility for walks, playtime, and all the belly rubs your furry friend could want! Whether they love outdoor adventures or need a cozy companion at home, I’m always around to keep them company. Plus, my boyfriend is just as much of an animal whisperer as I am—so if your fur child thrives on extra attention, they’ll get double the love and care! I strive to stick as closely to your pet’s routine as possible because I know how much a sense of stability helps them feel comfortable and at ease. Whether it’s their regular walk schedule, feeding times, or those little quirks that make them feel at home, I’m here to keep things familiar and stress-free, just with a little extra love!
“Amelia is wonderful! We were so happy to be able to be away and know that she's taking good care of our pup. The fact that our anxious little dog loves her says it all.”
“I am so glad we found Sofiya! She takes such good care of our now 5 month old Riley. We recently had to leave her for several nights, and Sofiya kept us updated every morning with how she’s doing and pictures. It really helped ease my mind about being away from our young puppy.”
“Oobleck had a wonderful stay with Michael getting daily walks, lots of belly rubs and scratches. Michael took great care of Oobie and I’ll definitely book him again for a future stay. Thank you Michael 😊 Oobie can’t wait to learn more cooking tips, watch the Roomba, and go on sniff walks with you again.”
“Nadia took great care of my dog - I felt comfortable and secure in the knowledge that my dog would be well-loved and cared for. She sent pictures throughout the day and followed his care instructions!”
“Laura is so thoughtful with updates during my dogs day at her place. She continually gave me reassurance and alerted me of any changes. Her sweet dog loves my baby, walks were given, and always communicated well. Thank god for sitters like her. This was my very first time using Rover, and I must say my experience has been so wonderful. It’s so nice that I can work at ease and know my baby is looked after.”
“Evegeniia is a great dog sitter! She came to our meet and greet with plenty of questions and was genuinely interested in Willow’s needs and how to care for her. We got plenty of videos, photos and text updates and it was clear that Willow was thriving while we were away. I definitely recommend Evegeniia to take care of your dog.”
“Everything is ok. Is a very good experience with my dog . She send pictures of my dog all the time . Very good service. Recogió a mi perro a tiempo desde mi casa y lo trajo de vuelta a tiempo . Volveré a contratarla.”
“i’ve left my dog hodu with ahiram a few times now and have had a great experience each time! hodu is always so excited to see her and her regular updates let me know he’s having a great time. i will definitely continue working with ahiram in the future!”
“Pissamas is wonderful! This was our first time having someone other than family watch Zoey and I was nervous but Pissamas was so responsive and I was reassured that Zoey was in good hands. Zoey also got to play with other dogs and made some new friends. 10/10 recommend!”
About: I am a traditional over communicator. Aside from loving pets and making sure they feel loves and cared for I also like their parents to feel informed as must as they want to. I like to provide an absolute awesome experience for both pets and owners alike. I firmly believe the best way forward is to understand how everyone likes to communicate. Imagine having peace of mind when traveling or just going to work. You can also receive photos and updates as needed. I will take care of your furry friends in way that they will love. I am currently available 4 days a week. For three days I do have to take care of some errands but I can work around that schedule. I will always try to be available over the weekends and will adjust for extended stays. I do care the same way owners will care about them. I diligently follow instructions and continue to educate myself on best ways for care. This includes reading but also nurturing pets that I have met in my pet sitting journey.

“Chang was amazing with Arlo! She took such good care of him and sent the cutest photos during their walk, which gave me so much peace of mind. She was prompt, communicative, and super easy to work with. I’d definitely book her again!”
“If I could give Terry 10 stars I would. She is the person you hope to find on Rover--responsible, sweet, caring, smart and more! Terry not only took wonderful care of my cat, she also helped me with a couple small house tasks while I was gone, and left detailed fun notes on each Rover card. When I came home everything looked great, even the plant she cared for looked better than it ever did! I'll definitely be booking her again.”
“We have had the pleasure of using her services twice now, and we couldn't be happier with the care she provides for our kittens. She came daily and ensured that our kittens' eating area was spotless, with clean bowls and well-fed kittens. She also kept their litter areas clean and tidy, which was a huge relief for us. What truly impressed us was how nice she was to our kittens. Two out of our three kittens are usually very shy and prefer to stay under the sofa, but they came out to greet her, which speaks volumes about her kind and gentle nature. We are extremely grateful for her exceptional care and attention to detail. We will definitely be asking her to take care of our kittens again in the future. Highly recommend her services!”
“Really great experience with Yingjie. She watched our cat for 18 days and kept us updated by sending daily photos and videos. Anytime we had a question she was very easy to get a hold of. She was also was very proactive about communication. Highly recommended and we will definitely book with her again!”
“We love Cassidy with our pet George. She's professional, friendly, and takes care of George—so TWO BIG THUMBS 👍 for Cassidy. We found a diamond in the rough. Tnanks Cassidy. Love, George Henry & Shaun”

“Lily is awesome! I asked her to collaborate with my husband to give my cat medication. Lily is very skillful to give medicine to my cat. Also, she is very punctual for appointment time.”
“Rachel took great care of our 3 cats while we were gone for the weekend. I didn't have any issues communicating with her, and she was very prompt when replying to my messages. Rachel was very thorough, and the cats were happy and healthy with her. Just like other pet parents, leaving your fur babies at hole whole you're miles away isn't always easy but Rachel made us feel comfortable. She sent videos and photos of our cats, which were really appreciated! Would love to have her again in the future to take care of our cats.”
“Hired Nasrin to take care of Willow for 2.5 weeks, and she did a tremendous job following instructions and making sure Willow was well cared for. We also asked her to check in on our car since we live in an apartment complex that has had break-ins, she sent us photos and kept us up to date on anything we needed to know. Can’t wait to work with her again in the future and would recommend her to anyone looking for great pet care.”
“Ariana is professional, detail oriented, and goes above and beyond. Her Rover cards were super thorough and transparent. She took such care of my baby - you can tell she is a true cat whisperer by how quickly my baby began to trust her. I will definitely be requesting her top notch services again in the future.”
“Anke was fantastic, and constantly in communication with us while we were traveling for two weeks. She went above and beyond to try and make my socially anxious cat comfortable.”
“Our pets love when Elsa comes over to play while we are away. She went above and beyond accommodating our new food bowls and my over the top directions. Our fur babies are happy and healthy on our return. Will book her again in the future.”
“It was a great pleasure to have Danyel look after our little guy and home. As a siamese, he isn't the quietest cat to look after and has a particular set of routine he needs to follow but Danyel looked after him to the T! She was incredibly responsive, communicative, and went above and beyond the required ask to make sure our home and cat is burdened free by the time we got back from our trip. Thanks Danyel!”
“Lexi is awesome and my cat loved her. She took care of everything I asked and sent updates. Lexi is super personable, kind, and caring. It made traveling 200% less stressful because I knew kitty was being loved.”
“Katerinne is an incredible pet sitter! She’s taken care of my kitty multiple times and is incredibly accommodating. My cat can be a little difficult at times, and I really thank Katerinne for having the patience and care to handle my incredibly shy & nervous baby. I cannot recommend her services enough!”
“Sabrina has been the best find on Rover! She is kind, dependable, and very responsive. You can immediately sense her love for dogs. She treats my pup like one of her own and he is always very excited to see her. I highly recommend Sabrina’s services!”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Willow Glen
Prices are estimates per day for 1 dog. Pricing may vary based on your search and includes a booking fee of 11%.
About: I’ve always had dogs around, and we adopted Annie, our latest furry friend, four years ago. I treat my dogs like my babies, and spend a lot of time playing with them and making sure they are looking pretty at all times! I work from home, so I’m free to care for your dogs during the week. Weekend availability might be a bit spotty. I only leave the dogs alone when I’m heading to the gym (about an hour), but otherwise I always bring them along, even to restaurants! Please provide food, treats, a food bowl, and a dog carrier (it’s super important!). I have plenty of toys :) I live in a townhouse, I don’t have a yard but I take the dogs out for pee breaks every 3-4 hours and 2 20min walks (morning and evening). I have puppy gates in the house to confine them to the 1st floor if we step out, and a crate (if needed). I also have a camera on that floor to monitor the dogs!
About: I've had my own dog ever since I can remember a family dog was always there and I was never without one. I enjoy a dog's company and I'm sure undermine, your dog will feel right at home. I do work full time however my schedule is flexible to come home to give breaks and once I'm home from work they have my full attention with walks until bedtime. The weekend, I am home providing walks and care. Plenty of play time with my dog as well. I live in an apartment which across the street we have a small dog fenced area and as well as a convenient walking area in the surround premises.
“Thank you to Lauren and Catherine for hosting my furbabies Harley and Bella! They provided exceptional care and kept me in the loop through the day. I recommend them both for anyone looking for a caring pet sitter.”
“FIrst time, using Rover for our dog, Capo. Teresa & her family, are wonderful, true dog lovers. Capo felt right at home with them & their dog Skittles. Teresa texted us pictures during his stay showing us what a good time he was having. The second day we brought him over he was so excited he couldn't wait to get to the front door. Thanks again for taking good care of our little guy and hopefully, Capo will see you all again soon!!”
“Megha and Avi are the absolute best! Barfi is icing on the cake 🙂 This was Luna’s first day care visit ever. I was anxious about how she would do without me, but Megha and Avi made her feel right at home. They kept me updated about her with pics and videos. Gave me a report when I went to pick her up which was insightful. She had such a great time, and even came home with a bandanna! I would definitely go back with them and recommend them to other pet parents”
“Sofiya takes great care of our miniature poodle "Lacey". She sends regular updates and pays close attention to Lacey's needs. We are very satisfied by Sofiya 's excellent care of Lacey.”
“Charlie had a wonderful stay-cation :) I felt confident with the care and love he received and would definitely like to have Charlie stay again. He cried for Christopher when we drove away which I found really endearing. Thank you!”
About: Hi! We’ve had plenty of experience caring for friends’ dogs, and we also have a high energy Samoyed of our own, so we’re very familiar with different personalities and energy levels. We truly believe that healthy socialization is important for a dog’s emotional well being. Our goal is to provide a safe, warm, and relaxed environment where every dog can feel comfortable, secure, and happy. Since we have our own dog, your dog will naturally follow a consistent daily routine with us. We take dogs out for walks together with our dog every day, usually around 20 minutes in the morning and afternoon. We adjust based on the weather and daily conditions, so they can enjoy a steady routine, companionship, and time to explore and relax. Potty breaks happen naturally during walks, and we keep a consistent routine without extending the time or forcing them. In addition, we have a cozy grassy backyard where dogs can run, play, and enjoy fresh air throughout the day. It’s a safe and comfortable space where they can explore, relax, and feel right at home. To ensure the best quality of care, we only take one dog at a time. This allows us to give our full attention and create a more personalized and stress free experience. We treat every dog like our own and make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for. We’re also happy to provide updates so you can feel at ease while you’re away 😊 We take dogs out for walks together with our dog every day, usually around 20 minutes in the morning and afternoon. We adjust based on the weather and daily conditions, so they can enjoy a steady routine, companionship, and time to explore and relax. Potty breaks happen naturally during walks, and we keep a consistent routine without extending the time or forcing them. We believe pet care is about more than just the basics; it’s about genuine engagement. We dedicate focused time to active play and mental stimulation, capturing those joyful moments through high-quality photos to give you peace of mind. Beyond enrichment, we prioritize physical health with a strict adherence to your preferred feeding schedules, constant access to fresh water, and the occasional well-earned treat.
“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!”
“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)”
“Heather was amazing with Luna. She was great with communication and photo updates and made sure Luna had a walk and playtime. Luna can be a bit anxious but Heather made her feel comfortable and right at home.”
“Pissamas, was waiting in front of her house o greet us and our dog LuLu . She sent pictures and video of LuLu several times during the stay which reassured us that LuLu was doing OK. We will definitely be using Pissamas again for future boarding”
About: Many years ago I worked as a vet tech. I have been involved withwildlife and pet rescue literally all my life. I have successfully raised a few well-mannered, helpful and obedient dogs. My pups always have chores (ie: retrieving the newspaper, carrying in groceries, helping with yard work). I do my best to keep everything consistent for your fur babies. I try to keep to your normal routine and use your terminology and commands. Everyone so far has been pretty consistent ("sit, stay, off, leave it, release, etc) so I haven't needed to change up my vocabulary much. If you have multiple pets please ask me about adjusting the rates for each additional pet over 3. I can usually make adjustments. I am retired, therefore, able to devote all of my time to the pets I am caring for. I sometimes have drop in visits to do during housesitting gigs. I never schedule them to take more than a couple hours during the day. I do my best to keep anxiety to a minimum and fun to the max. I want your pets to associate your suitcase with a fun time with me vs missing you.
“First time using Rover and had the best experience with Chandra! Found her last minute and was very accommodating with my new corgi puppy. I know my puppy Peggy is in good hands and plan to come back again!”
“Ghelina took care of our baby girl last minute. Our family was traveling through San Jose and there were a few attractions we wanted to go to that did not accept pets. Ghelina was a life saver and took such good care of Moka. Communication was excellent with many updates and great pics and video as well. Our girl was super happy when we picked her up. We will definitely use Ghelina's services again next time we are in the area.”
About: What sets me apart is the level of absolute reliability and structured care I bring to looking after your pets. I know how stressful it can be to leave them behind, so my priority is maintaining their exact routine to minimize separation anxiety. If you have a senior pet who needs precise medication schedules, mobility assistance, or just a patient companion who knows how to read their subtle cues, I’m entirely comfortable managing those complex needs. On the flip side, if you're dealing with the chaotic energy of a young pet, I love supporting puppy or kitten training—sticking strictly to your positive reinforcement rules for crate training, housebreaking, and basic manners so they don't slide backward while you're gone. Ultimately, I view pet care through a lens of high accountability. You won't have to chase me down for updates; I keep you seamlessly in the loop with regular, clear check-ins so you have total peace of mind. Every pet has a unique set of needs, and I approach their care with the same detail and respect I would want for my own family. Currently not working so I play with my dog and yours all day. I typically take my dog to walk my daughter school (morning and afternoon). In morning on way home, stop at park to let them play. Go back home to let them nap. Until afternoon walks / run. Fending in backyard with a giant area to play and separate area for potty. My dog prefers to be inside typically lounging on the couches.
About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats for years through friends, family, and my community. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, and making sure pets feel safe and relaxed while you’re away. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, and I take the time to follow your instructions closely so they feel comfortable and cared for. I’m patient, attentive, and truly enjoy being around animals. I’ll treat your pet like family and make sure they get plenty of love, attention, and care. I have a flexible schedule and am available during weekdays and weekends. I’m especially available during the day for walks and drop-in visits, as well as evenings for check-ins. I’m reliable and consistent, and I do my best to work around your pet’s routine to make things as smooth and stress-free as possible. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always follow your instructions carefully, keep a close eye on your pet, and make sure they are in a safe and clean environment. I’m respectful of your home and will treat it with care. I also provide updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing while you’re away. My goal is to make sure both you and your pet feel comfortable, secure, and happy.
“Diem took great care of my dog—very kind, genuine, and clearly someone who really loves dogs. She has a secure fenced setup (including the front/driveway area), which made me feel comfortable right away. She showed my dog a lot of love and even took the time to ask about what she could eat because she wanted to give her something extra, which I really appreciated. By the end, my dog felt completely at home. Honestly, I think my dog was a little sad to leave… and I can’t say I blame her. Would definitely book again.”
“Thank you for taking such wonderful care of Parker this afternoon. It was great to see her socializing with other dogs. We appreciated you sending pictures and videos during her stay.”

“Rachel is sooooo understanding and patient with our very cautious and overly protective shepherd. She is attuned to his moods and cues, and always succeeds in getting him out for his scheduled walk, along with his sister. Yay for Rachel!”
“Whinde is great! She’s walked Fred twice now, and this time I got to see that Fred was very content after her walk. She was also able to walk her for a little longer after there was a mix up with the time.”
“Terry is a wonderful walker! My dog loves her and comes back tired and happy :) she makes it very easy to pick up and drop off, as she comes directly to my office during the work day. It’s so nice having someone trustworthy and reliable to walk Boomer when I’m having a long week. I would definitely recommend her to anyone!”
“Charlie is the absolute best! She has been doing daily walks for my dog and it is the highlight of his day. His sits by the door waiting for her to arrive, gets so stinking excited when she shows up and toodles off with her in heaven. Charlie provides detailed updates on the walk and is highly communicative with us. In short, I could not recommend Charlie more!”
“Cassidy is great! I always get thorough updates and she has been flexible with our last minute requests. She is very capable and experienced and I know my (sometimes anxious) pup is in good hands!”
“We truly believe we have found the best dog walker ever ! Judi treats Aria like she is hers. She is very flexible and is always working around our schedule. Judi is always on time and never cuts Arias walks short. Aria is very shy but Judi is so good she adapted to her very quickly and gets very excited every time she shows up! I can’t thank Hudi enough but if you are looking for someone to take care of your baby Judi is definitely the right person !!!”
“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.”
“Nasrin is wonderful! First off, she is incredibly patient and meets the pets at their level. She is so gentle and incredibly caring. She has gone above and beyond to make sure my kitties needs were met when I was out of town for a week. She updated me daily, sent videos and pictures, gave me updates on their eating/pooping . I just moved into my home and have not unpacked yet. She was willing to open boxes in my garage to look for extra litter that I had forgotten to unpack, and cleaned up multiple messes that one of my kitties left bc she gets scared whenever I leave. Also, the first day I was gone, I forgot to turn my alarm off, and it went off when she came for the first cat drop in. unfortunately I didn’t see messages from her until 30 min later. The poor girl stayed, checked in on the kitties because she wanted to make sure they were ok, and even after the police came and questioned her, she still stayed, calmed down the kitties and waited to leave until she could get a hold of me. She is incredibly trustworthy, responsible, RELIABLE, on time (if not early) and I would strongly recommend her to anyone. She’s also so great with my dog - walking her and getting her some exercise even though my pup can be pretty stubborn. I’m having her cat and dog sit again because of what a great job she has done so far.”
About: Hi! I'm Bailey, and I've always loved being around dogs. I know a lot about dogs and their breeds, so I will make sure each walk is specfic to their personality, energy level, and what makes them comfortable. Whether your dog loves long walks, exploring new smells, or just getting outside for some fresh air, I'll make sure they have a fun and safe time! I also worked at a dog grooming salon as a receptionist, where I spent my days around dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I helped make sure pets felt comfortable and welcomed while communicating with owners about their pets' needs. This experience taught me how important patience, attention to detail, and trust are when caring for animals. I'm currently a college student, so I have a flexible schedule and can dedicate quality time to the pets I care for. As someone who has been involved in competitive swimming and coaching, I'm active and enjoy being outdoors, which makes dog walking a perfect fit for me. I love taking dogs on longer walks in areas they're familiar with and comfortable in while making sure they're getting plenty of exercise and attention. I understand that pets are family, and I take that responsibility seriously. My goal is to make sure both you and your dog feel comfortable, confident, and happy while they're in my care. I look forward to meeting you and your furry best friend!
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and truly consider them part of the family. I currently have three family pit bulls and one French bulldog, so I’m very comfortable caring for both large, high-energy dogs and smaller breeds with different needs and personalities. I genuinely love spending time with pets—whether that’s going on walks, playing, or just giving them attention and affection. I’m also very attentive and detail-oriented when it comes to care. One of my own dogs has a special diet, so I understand how important it is to stay on top of feeding routines, dietary restrictions, and overall health needs. I treat every dog like my own and aim to provide a safe, fun, and loving environment while you’re away. I work a hybrid schedule, which gives me great flexibility for pet care. About half the week I work from home, so I’m available for walks, playtime, and check-ins throughout the day. I’ll primarily be scheduling dog walks during my work-from-home days and on weekends, when I have more time to give your pet my full attention. I’m reliable, responsive, and always make sure pets stick to their usual routines. I focus on creating a safe, comfortable, and structured environment for every pet in my care—whether in my home or my client’s home. My apartment complex has a private dog park where dogs can enjoy space to run and play individually, so they’re not overwhelmed or interacting with unfamiliar dogs. I’m happy to tailor activity to each dog’s needs, whether that’s long walks at nearby parks, shorter neighborhood walks, or more relaxed playtime. I always prioritize safety, so pets will not be around other dogs while in my care unless otherwise requested. I stick closely to your pet’s routine, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, exercise, and any special instructions. I also make sure they get plenty of attention, affection, and mental stimulation so they feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I’ll keep you updated with messages and photos so you have peace of mind knowing your pet is in good hands.
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life with many different personalities and I love them no matter what! I’ve been pet sitting for family and friends for over 3 years and love everything about it! I wanted to start pet walking in a way to be more active, build community, and meet cute pups! I’m working part-time and going to school so I have a lot of extra time to be outside and be productive! I love animals so it works well for my schedule. I love spending time outside with dogs either in the backyard, going to the park, or on a long walk! I’m able to have dogs at my home and I have a very friendly dog to keep them company!
“Zhi was absolutely amazing with my dog! She was kind, friendly, playful, and went above and beyond everything I asked for. She made sure my dog was well taken care of by feeding him, taking him on a walk, and spending quality time playing with him at the park. I could tell she genuinely cared and treated him like her own. My dog loved her, and I felt completely comfortable knowing he was in great hands. I would definitely hire her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog walker!”
“Karlin was very reliable and we felt safe leaving our dog in her care. Would be very happy if she will take care of Hazel again next time we need someone. She was thoughtful and a good communicator too. Thank you again, Karlin!”
About: Growing up with a diverse array of pets instilled a deep understanding of their needs. Specializing in cat and reptile care sets me apart as a reliable sitter. Hi! I’m Lexi, a lifelong animal lover with experience caring for cats, dogs, reptiles, and other household pets. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to find someone dependable, communicative, and genuinely caring. Whether I’m dropping in for a quick visit or providing extended care, I strive to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their family is away. I have a special soft spot for cats and understand that many need patience and trust before they warm up to someone new. I also enjoy caring for dogs of all sizes and energy levels and am happy to follow any routines that help your pet feel at home. Pet care fits naturally into my routine! I work full-time in San Jose and am available for morning, evening, weekend, and holiday visits. I keep my Rover calendar updated regularly and will always communicate clearly about my availability. I enjoy spending my free time with animals and love helping pet parents feel confident their pets are cared for while they’re away. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are my top priorities. I believe consistency helps pets feel secure, so I do my best to maintain their normal feeding, exercise, playtime, and medication schedules. I treat every home with respect and provide regular photo updates and communication throughout each visit. My goal is for both you and your pet to feel comfortable, relaxed, and well cared for while you’re apart.
About: I have been pet owner over 5 years and have experience caring for dogs and cats. I enjoy taking my furry friend on long walks, playing fetch in the park. I am a responsible and reliable individual who will prioritize your pet's safety and well-being while under my care. I am available for dog walking, pet sitting, and drop-in visits and will provide regular updates and photos to ensure you feel comfortable and informed while you are away. I understand that pet care requires a significant amount of time and attention, so it's important to plan accordingly. I evaluate my schedule to ensure that I can provide the necessary care and attention for your pets. I prioritize your pet's needs and make time for activities such as feeding, playing and exercise. I make sure to provide a balanced and nutritious diet, plenty of fresh water, and a clean living space. For dogs, I ensure that they receive regular exercise, whether that's through daily walks, runs in the park, or playtime in the backyard.For cats, I provide plenty of toys and other activities to keep my pets mentally stimulated and engaged. I am attentive to my pet's needs, and I regularly monitor their behavior and health to identify any potential issues. If any concerns arise, I seek prompt veterinary care to ensure my pets receive the best possible treatment.

“Leaving Oliver with Ezra gave me peace of mind, with regular updates from her, I knew Oliver was taken care of, and also had fun playing with his friends. Excellent service and communication, and Oliver looked super happy!!”
“The BEST rover. Flora and her husband took awesome care of whisky over the weekend. tons of photos and video every day. Took whisky out more frequently than I did. I can tell that flora do love animals from the heart. I would not hesitate to book with flora again in the future.”
“Lanie and her family took great care of Bentley! She was great at keeping us updated with texts and photos, and running things by us as questions arose. We would definitely recommend Lanie!”
“We had a wonderful experience with our dog sitter. She is extremely responsible and reliable, and we work with her regularly. Every day, she kept us updated by sending pictures of Daisy, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. She also went above and beyond by grooming Daisy, which we really appreciated. When our flight was delayed, she was very understanding and kindly agreed to watch Daisy for a few extra hours without any hesitation. We’re truly grateful for her care and dedication. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive dog sitter.”
“Karri, Michael and Hank were incredible! They treated my dog like a member of their family. The daily pictures and updates reassured me that my dog was having a great time. Karri and Michael really pay attention to the details and went above and beyond to make both me and my dog feel comfortable. My family and I ran into some travel delays and they were so wonderful and accommodating, they watched my dog an extra night without question. Their dog Hank is my dog's new best friend! Thank you guys so much!”
“Would definitely book again! Him and his family were caring and kind to her while we were away for a few days. He sent multiple updates throughout her stay. Finally found a permanent sitter to come.”
About: While you’re on vacation, let your pet enjoy one too! I strive to give the true ‘grandma experience’ lots of love, plenty of comfort, and maybe just a little extra spoiling. I’ve been a Rover sitter for over three years now. In that time, I’ve fully embraced the idea that pets are permanent toddlers—full of personality, always curious, often dramatic(lol), and in constant need of love (which I’m more than happy to give!). I have experience with special case rescues, reactive dogs who need extra patience and understanding, bouncy puppies figuring out the world, and senior pets who want a cozy nap buddy. No matter their quirks, I treat every pet like my own—whether that means endless belly rubs, silly conversations, or just being their snack dispenser. My goal is to make their time with me feel like a fun vacation, so while you’re off relaxing, you can rest easy knowing your pet is having just as much fun (if not more)! **I am a SUCKER for pitties and long snoots:)) I work fully remote, so I have plenty of flexibility for walks, playtime, and all the belly rubs your furry friend could want! Whether they love outdoor adventures or need a cozy companion at home, I’m always around to keep them company. Plus, my boyfriend is just as much of an animal whisperer as I am—so if your fur child thrives on extra attention, they’ll get double the love and care! I strive to stick as closely to your pet’s routine as possible because I know how much a sense of stability helps them feel comfortable and at ease. Whether it’s their regular walk schedule, feeding times, or those little quirks that make them feel at home, I’m here to keep things familiar and stress-free, just with a little extra love!
“Amelia is wonderful! We were so happy to be able to be away and know that she's taking good care of our pup. The fact that our anxious little dog loves her says it all.”
“I am so glad we found Sofiya! She takes such good care of our now 5 month old Riley. We recently had to leave her for several nights, and Sofiya kept us updated every morning with how she’s doing and pictures. It really helped ease my mind about being away from our young puppy.”
“Oobleck had a wonderful stay with Michael getting daily walks, lots of belly rubs and scratches. Michael took great care of Oobie and I’ll definitely book him again for a future stay. Thank you Michael 😊 Oobie can’t wait to learn more cooking tips, watch the Roomba, and go on sniff walks with you again.”
“Nadia took great care of my dog - I felt comfortable and secure in the knowledge that my dog would be well-loved and cared for. She sent pictures throughout the day and followed his care instructions!”
“Laura is so thoughtful with updates during my dogs day at her place. She continually gave me reassurance and alerted me of any changes. Her sweet dog loves my baby, walks were given, and always communicated well. Thank god for sitters like her. This was my very first time using Rover, and I must say my experience has been so wonderful. It’s so nice that I can work at ease and know my baby is looked after.”
“Everything is ok. Is a very good experience with my dog . She send pictures of my dog all the time . Very good service. Recogió a mi perro a tiempo desde mi casa y lo trajo de vuelta a tiempo . Volveré a contratarla.”
About: I am a traditional over communicator. Aside from loving pets and making sure they feel loves and cared for I also like their parents to feel informed as must as they want to. I like to provide an absolute awesome experience for both pets and owners alike. I firmly believe the best way forward is to understand how everyone likes to communicate. Imagine having peace of mind when traveling or just going to work. You can also receive photos and updates as needed. I will take care of your furry friends in way that they will love. I am currently available 4 days a week. For three days I do have to take care of some errands but I can work around that schedule. I will always try to be available over the weekends and will adjust for extended stays. I do care the same way owners will care about them. I diligently follow instructions and continue to educate myself on best ways for care. This includes reading but also nurturing pets that I have met in my pet sitting journey.
“Meredith was amazing! We were concerned about leaving Blue with someone for our wedding weekend, but Mer made sure we knew he was in safe and caring hands. She provided fun updates often, and took great care of Blue. He came back happy and we were able to enjoy our wedding without any concerns!”
“Kristena and her family are just fantastic! My dogs absolutely love visiting and they come home happy, healthy and tired! I cannot recommend highly enough.”
“Thao was amazing! I needed a sitter at the last minute for a weekend retreat, and she made me feel completely comfortable leaving my dog in her care. My dog can be a little anxious, but Thao was incredibly patient and made sure she ate, got treats, and felt at home. Even though Thao knew I didn’t have access to my phone during the weekend, she continued sending updates, photos, and videos, which were so sweet to see when I got back. It was clear my dog was happy, well cared for, and having a great time. I would absolutely book with Thao again and highly recommend her! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Thanks so much to Amy for watching Mattie. You were very kind to her and I could tell she was so comfortable at your home. It was great to know she was in a great home. See you soon for another visit. Thanks, Helen”
