“Ivan was wonderful with our Bernadoodle! He sent a ton of photos and I felt super comfortable knowing our pup was loved and cared for while we were away. I highly recommend Ivan and plan to have Summit stay with him again in the future.”
“Kathryn and Jason were amazing pet sitters for our labradoodle while we were away! Great communications, easy to schedule drop off/ pick up, and most importantly they were very caring for our pup. She clearly had a great time with them. We will definitely book with them again!”
“James and Jasmine are hands-down the best dog sitters we’ve ever used. They are incredibly professional and took the time to understand Toby’s specific routine and needs. It was clear from the start that they genuinely love dogs and treated our Toby as their own. They were super reliable and kept us up to date with Toby's activities and sent us daily pix -- they truly went above and beyond to make sure Toby was comfortable and happy. We will definitely be booking them again! Thanks again guys!”
“Mario took good care of my dog and sent pictures throughout my time away. He was also very flexible with the time that I could pick up Copper. Will definitely use again for boarding.”
“Michael was great! I left my dog Echo with him for 3 days and he took care of Echo who seemed to really enjoy Michael’s house and yard. Michael sent daily updates and photos, and my dog was in super happy spirits when I picked him up, so I know he enjoyed his time at Michael’s! Highly recommend and I will use Michael again next time.”
“Kelly kept our dogs safe and happy during our time away. She provided frequent updates, photos and videos so we could see our pups enjoying all of their daily activities with her. She was very quick to reply if we had any questions or concerns. She maintained our dogs’ regular schedule and they adjusted easily to their stay with Kelly without any issues. Her place is super clean so we weren’t worried about our dogs getting into anything dangerous. When our trip was unexpectedly cut short for reasons unrelated to the pups, Kelly took the initiative to contact Rover and modify our booking so we wouldn’t be charged for the days we originally booked but were no longer using. We will definitely book with Kelly again for our next trip!”
“Wally had a wonderful stay with Lawrence and Rachel! They were exceptionally responsive from start to finish and kept me updated with plenty of photos and videos. This is the first sitter who's truly followed every detail of the care instructions I provided, which gave me so much peace of mind. I could tell Wally was entertained, comfortable, and genuinely well cared for the entire time. Thank you so much — I know Wally can't wait to see you again!”
“Our dog Miso had a great time with Jihyun and her dog Tori. We feel very connected with frequent photo and video updates of Miso. Thank you for your help watching over Miso!”
“Diana and Michael did a great job taking care of my dog for an extended stay. He was cared for and healthy. The sent lots of updates, pictures, and videos, and our dog was always playing with the family! We will probably have them watch him again.”
“Annie was wonderful with Boba! She was very responsive and sent lots of photos and videos during his stay, which we really appreciated. Boba looked so happy and had a great time playing with the other pups. We could tell he was very well cared for. Highly recommend!”
About: What sets me apart is the combination of hands-on experience with dogs of all ages and temperaments, along with the level of care and attention I genuinely put into every dog I look after. I’ve worked closely with a young puppy, attending training sessions and learning how to reinforce positive behaviors and create an environment where a dog can thrive. I’m comfortable continuing training routines, maintaining structure, and helping puppies build good habits. On the other end of the spectrum, I also have experience caring for senior dogs who require extra patience and support—whether that’s assisting with mobility, following specific diets, or adapting to hearing and vision loss. I regularly dog sit for friends with very different needs, from high-energy dogs who need multiple long walks a day to older dogs who require a slower pace and more hands-on care. I’ve also cared for multiple dogs at once, making sure each one gets the individual attention they need. I pride myself on being adaptable and attentive, tailoring my care to each dog’s personality, routine, and comfort level. Beyond experience, what truly sets me apart is how deeply I care. I treat every dog like family, not just a job. I’ve even gone out of my way on multiple occasions to help neighbors find their lost dogs and have successfully helped reunite them with their owners several times. I believe it’s our responsibility to create a safe, loving, and positive environment where dogs feel relaxed, happy, and encouraged—and that’s exactly the kind of care I provide every time. I work full-time with a flexible hybrid schedule, which allows me to plan ahead one or two weeks in advance for working on site or at home. On days I go into the office, I can take pups on walks in the early morning or evening. I’m fully available for boarding on weekends, and depending on my work schedule, I can also offer overnight boarding during the week. I do my best to be flexible and accommodate each dog’s routine—whether that means early morning walks, regular potty breaks, or sticking closely to their usual schedule. If your pup is used to a 7am walk, I’m more than happy to start the day early to make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I prioritize creating a safe, clean, and comfortable environment that helps every dog feel at ease, whether they’re in my home or their own. In my home, I have a private, fenced backyard that’s only accessible through my apartment, so your dog can safely enjoy fresh air. It’s partially covered as well, providing some protection from rain. Inside, I keep my space clean and dog-friendly, with cushioned area rugs to prevent slipping and give dogs a comfortable place to walk, play, or relax. I also provide cozy blankets and an outdoor dog bed so they have options for resting wherever they feel most comfortable. Cleanliness and routine are very important to me—I wash food bowls after each use and refresh water bowls daily. Dogs are welcome on my furniture, but I always respect and follow your home rules to maintain consistency. If your dog isn’t allowed on furniture, I will reinforce those same boundaries. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I’m very respectful of their space and attentive to instructions. I carefully follow all provided routines, house rules, and notes to ensure your dog experiences as much consistency and comfort as possible while you’re away.
“Felt very reassured during the entire booking. I received constant updates and pictures of my dog while I was gone. She always asked questions when unsure and was very flexible to make sure my dog got the care he needed. Very fast at responding. Overall great experience.”
“Zicheng was extremely accommodating and responsive. He has a great backyard and a fun dog. He texts pictures during a stay and its always reassuring. I would highly recommend Zicheng for anyone in the Peninsula.”
“Irina was a fantastic dog sitter for our Sophie! She clearly loved her, and we could tell Sophie was happy and well cared for the whole time. Irina sent lots of updates, which gave us great peace of mind. We’d happily book her again and highly recommend her!”
“Our dog was really happy during his stay and Edward seemed equally happy to spend time caring for him. Edward was very flexible, easy to communicate with, and provided many photos of their adventures.”
“Thank you Na for your outstanding dog-sitting services for our lovable Roxie!!! We appreciated the daily photos/videos keeping us informed how our dog was doing. Roxie looks forward to coming back in the future!”
About: I have a Samoyed x Standard Poodle at home, so I am very comfortable handling and caring for larger breeds! I have also cared for various dogs within my family so I are experienced with smaller dogs and different breeds. And since I work from home full time, you can expect frequent photo and video updates throughout the day so you always know your pup is happy and well looked after! I work from home full time, so your dog will never be left alone. Since I have our own dog, I already do two walks a day — so your pup will definitely be getting out and about! I have my own friendly dog at home who loves meeting new friends — he gets along great with dogs of all sizes and breeds, so your pup will always have a playmate! I also have enrichment toys and lick mats on hand to keep them stimulated and entertained.
“Kristine was wonderful with our dogs! She sent pictures of them every day and they were having a great time. She kept them over New Year’s and had a special treat for them to celebrate the new year, which was extra fun for them. We loved the special thought!”

“Kristin was wonderful! She took care of our cat Louis while we were away for the week. Kristin was prompt, detailed, and took the cutest photos of Louis. I felt so at ease knowing Louis was in Kristin’s care. Thank you!”
“Our repeat booking with Heleen was just a great as the first! She has been very accommodating to our needs, is a clear and friendly communicator and really cares for our kitties. They really like her too! We cannot recommend Heleen enough to others who need their babies looked after.”
About: I am currently offering daily walks only. Your pup will enjoy a long walk on your requested route or my choice. I enjoy taking dogs to the park, hikes and walks around the lakes. There are many options on the Pennisula and I like to switch up the scenery daily. Not all dogs can be walked at 11am - 1pm, for a higher rate of acceptance please choose a larger ranger. I try to keep my prices low, I know what a stress it is to worry about your pup and the last thing you need is to not schedule a walk due the cost. I am also open to suggestions and will always refill the water bowl and give your pup lots of kisses and love before the end of my visit. I appreciate all reviews, please message me directly if you have any additional questions.
“Katie was able to accommodate us on short notice over the holiday week after our scheduled sitter got sick. She was very friendly and easy to work with and our cats seemed to like her too 😻 We will happily work with her again in the future.”
“Kecheng and A took great care of Luna while we were away. Luna seemed even a bit cuddlier when we got back! We really appreciated the daily photos and videos. Looking forward to next time Luna can stay with them.”
“Yamzel took great care of my cat while I was away👍She sent detailed daily updates and photos every day, which really helped me feel relaxed and worry-free during my trip. My cat is super shy and usually hides from new people, but Yamzel still managed to find him and send me cute pictures and updates. She also thoughtfully kept an eye on her food and supplies, which I really appreciated. I felt really reassured knowing my cat was in good hands. I’d definitely book with Yamzel again and would happily recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter 😊”
“Rong was super sweet and really attentive with Stella. Stella usually takes a while to warm up to people, but she seemed very comfortable with Rong right away. Rong also paid attention to the little things around the apartment and kept me updated, which I really appreciated. Would definitely book with her again.”
“Sukky (Siqi) is an amazing Rover cat sitter — incredibly attentive and truly knows how to interact with cats. Hoohoo was so well cared for, and reading her daily update notes genuinely made my day every time. She’s thoughtful, observant, and clearly experienced with cats. She also went above and beyond what I expected: she helped brush Hoohoo’s fur, tidied up the living room, and took absolutely fantastic photos (I’m literally using them as my phone wallpaper!). On top of that, she even drew an adorable little sketch of Hoohoo — such a sweet and personal touch. I’m so grateful for everything she did, and I will definitely book Siqi again next time. Highly recommend!”
“Xilin and Xiang were amazing and took such great care of Nono while also keeping our home clean and tidy. We really appreciated them and felt so lucky to have their help during our two week vacation!”
“Jennifer is definitely a cat person and a reliable sitter. I appreciated her attendance, attention to instructions given, and daily updates. Each visit came with a summary of the interaction which was nice to read while away from home.”
About: I have years of experience pet and house sitting, as well as fostering animals from two separate rescue organizations for months at a time. I am the proud owner of a ten-year old Siberian cat named Annabelle, who I take care of. I have pet sit for multiple repeat clients, ranging from neighbors to family friends, all of which were satisfied with my thoroughness, responsibility, and attentiveness. As a fierce animal enthusiast, I am dedicated to making your pet feel loved, understood, and cared for while you are away. I am also willing to do odd jobs around the house such as watering house plants, if needed.
“I cannot thank Emmy enough, she has been such a huge help! My cats had an emergency during my vacation, and Emmy was able to come check on them quickly. She visited my cats everyday and they were so comfortable around her! Emmy gives detailed updates and lots of cute photos of my kitties. Huge weight lifted off my shoulders so I can relax and enjoy my trip. Thank you so much Emmy!”
“4 of our cats showed Alanna a lot of love as she did to them. We are grateful to have found her and felt at ease with how she took care of our babies. We are definitely going to ask for her again!”
“Sameena did an outstanding job, 5 stars are not enough. Sameena is very responsive and updates frequently. She was very comfortable providing medicine and supplements to my elderly kitty (credit to her education in animal science) and was even flexible enough to extend her visit by another day. I would certainly book Sameena again if I need another sitter.”
“Peter is amazing. He took such good care of our two cats while we were away. Definitely recommened him. Thank you so mucb Peter. Gabbi and Morty really like being around you.”
About: I have over 15 years of experience caring for cats and have consistently pet sat for family and friends. I currently have a 9-year-old black cat named Peter, and I’m especially skilled at understanding feline behavior and building trust. I’m very comfortable with all types of cats, including shy, anxious, or more independent personalities. I respect their boundaries, read their cues, and adjust my approach to help them feel safe and comfortable. I also volunteered for 7 years at the Humane Society SPCA, which strengthened my ability to care for animals with a wide range of temperaments and needs. I provide reliable, attentive care and follow your cat’s routine closely, including feeding, litter care, playtime, and companionship. I also send regular updates so you feel at ease while you’re away.

About: Having raised my own puppy and dogsat for friends with anxious pups, I'm well versed in how to provide for a pup's full time needs. I can also provide puppy training in house manners (for example: waiting patiently to be fed, waiting at doors, simple commands). My care and attention to my own puppy, Chef, is full time and I am super excited to share that with your pup. We can go on excursions or hang around the house or play fetch at the dogpark. Whatever your pup is up for. I have a fenced yard and a friendly pup for your pup(s) to play with! And if your pup doesn't want company for whatever reason, I have gates and crates to make sure they are safe and happy in their own space. Feel free to request photos/videos and check in anytime for updates.
About: I have 6 years of Rover experience and 30+ years of caring for dogs and other pets. I love dogs and I hope I get to keep doing this forever! ❤️ I’ll send lots of updates and photos of your fur baby’s silly faces, snuggles, actions shots, and all the fun little moments that make their day. Have a peace of mind knowing your fur baby is happy, well cared for, safe, loved, and spoiled to the fullest while you’re away. 😊👍 Available any day, anytime-happy to fit your schedule! Your 🐶 is never left alone or overlooked because I’m right there with them all day - playing, rolling around, relaxing, and having fun together. At night, they happily cuddle on the bed, couch, or wherever they choose to snooze (or in their crate if crate training is preferred by the owner). Your 🐕 will be in a loving home away from home in a very safe, nature-filled neighborhood where they can relax indoors and play to their heart’s content outside in two large fenced areas, each with its own real grass field. There’s plenty of space for zoomies, nature-powered brain workouts, sniffing adventures, sunbathing sessions, and shady chill spots for well-earned breaks in between all the fun, and most importantly, scenic bathroom spots! 😆
“Very clean home and our pup seemed like he really enjoyed his stay with Hui! She sent photos throughout the day and was very attentive. I appreciate her understanding and care with puppy. I hope she can watch Harvey in the future!”
“I’m very happy to come across Doug. He took great care of Oliver. Dough pays attention and ask questions about Oli, which shows that he cares and have knowledge about dogs. I’m very comfortable leaving Oli with him.”

“Diana was so welcoming and accommodating to Teddy. They have a lovely house with a big back yard that he loved.

About: Hello, and thank you for checking out my profile! I have over 5 years of experience providing pet sitting, dog walking, and house-sitting services, along with 2 years of experience as a pet owner. I’ve cared for dogs ranging in age from 4 months to 16 years old and have experience with pets who require daily medications, mobility assistance, and individualized care. All breeds are welcome. I’ve worked with a wide variety of dogs, including Chihuahuas, Boxers, Pit Bulls, German Shepherds, and Belgian Malinois. I understand that every dog has a unique personality, energy level, and routine, and I strive to provide care that meets their individual needs. Because I work from home, I’m able to provide plenty of attention, supervision, and companionship throughout the day. I also provide regular updates, photos, and videos so you can feel confident and connected while you’re away. I understand how stressful it can be to leave your pet in someone else’s care. My goal is to create a safe, comfortable, and positive experience for both you and your pet, treating them with the same patience, care, and respect that I would want for my own. During the weekdays, my flexible schedule allows me to be there for your pet whenever they need a bathroom break or just a check in. I’m dedicated to making sure your pet feels loved and secure in your absence. For new clients, I love to arrange a meet and greet to ensure we’re a perfect match. If that’s not possible, we can discuss your pet’s needs in detail to make sure everything is covered. I will stick diligently to any schedule and/or rules you may have set up for your pet(s). My goal is to make sure you know your furry friend is safe and sound at home while you are out of town.
“Zhenting and her family were delightful, communicative, responsive, and most importantly so sweet to me and my puppy. I reached out in a pinch and she responded quickly, asked important questions, and made me feel comfortable about leaving my most important possession with her. Great experience and I’d recommend to any pet owner!”
“Anna and Conrad took great care of Teddy for the day and was able to accommodate our last minute request for booking and changes. Our guy is a little shy around other dogs so they were extra patient and caring to ensure he was okay and even allowed us to meet before our daycare so the dogs can get exposure. We also have a special diet and due to a recent illness and they were able to continue with our feeding instructions (even letting us know how much he consumed in the meal). I would be more than happy to drop off our dog for another session with them. Thank you Anna, Conrad, Mochi, and Olive!”
About: We’re dog lovers (currently without our own furball) and would love to care for yours. Our pet parent history: Over 18 years, we've raised puppies (black Lab and Boxer mix) and then a cool cat found us, making a party of 5. Post-trio, we rescued a middle-aged Boxer who was sweet on humans but not so much with other dogs and spent several years walking on the wild side with her before she became street-settled. We've been dog park regulars and hosted furritos of friends for slumber parties and were short-term vacation fosters. We've gently nursed our dogs through neuropathy, lung cancer, and Cushing's disease. We found great people to care for our girls on Rover and want to do the same for you! We miss being dog parents dearly and will care for your pets as if they were our own. If you happen to have dog & cat siblings, they are welcome, too! It’s summer break for one of us and the other is self-employed, so we have tons of time to dedicate to your furrito! We prefer not to leave your pup unattended — generally one of us will be with your doggo at all times. Your dog(s) will have access to all parts of our non-smoking home, sofa and beds included! Our dogs were free range, we do not have a crate. We are happy to use yours, please bring if needed. We’ll schedule a meet & greet ahead of time to make sure that you’ll both feel comfortable with us while apart and that your dog is a good match for us. Our home is 2 stories (wood floors downstairs, carpeted stairs & upstairs) with a front yard and small back patio area. We're in a safe neighborhood where we'll take daily walks.

About: I trained my Pomeranian puppy myself and he’s now almost 9. I’ve assisted with all of my friends’ dog training and love being around all dogs. I am currently transitioning out of my full-time tech role after my startup got acquired and am looking to take time off. I have a lot of flexibility. I have a yard, am next to Laurelwood park, and a very walkable neighborhood. We have toys and crates in the home for small dogs.
“Ray was great with Jimi! Jimi is leash reactive and not friendly with other dogs, plus he is very strong, so I’m always worried when someone else walks him. But I felt extremely confident with Ray walking him. He also spent extra time with Jimi and they played in the backyard after each walk. Additionally, I appreciated how communicative Ray was with me and all the pictures that he sent while I was away. I can’t recommend Ray enough!”
“Highly recommend Heleen! She has been amazing with Ruby, reliable, friendly, and went the extra mile when we had to change up our plans on her. We love the updates and can see how much Heleen truly cares.”
“Tiffany was great and took care of my dog very well. She was communicating and always responsive, followed all my instructions for feeding and giving medication. Would hire again.”
“Allison has been such an amazing "friend" to our dog, Kona. We can tell how much Kona is loved and cared for while we are away at work and school. We get regular updates on how Kona is doing, including pictures! Would definitely recommend Allison for your dog's needs!”

“Rong has been great! She’s taken great care of our dog during his walks and is very communicative and attentive to any possible issues! Our dog has really enjoyed all the walks with her, we couldn’t ask for better care!”

About: I have volunteered in dog shelters + rescues for 4 years and worked in a dog clinic for a couple years under a veterinarian (Dog Adoption and Welfare Group and Carl Zaboly DVM in Santa Barbara, CA), so I am familiar with the behaviors of our bestest friends. I live in an apartment next to Leo J Ryan park and walking distance from Foster City dog park, where my small dog Mocha loves to play with other dogs. For boarding, if your dog is prone to anxiety around people and other dogs, I request that a short meet and greet be done prior. This is to ensure that your dog and I will be a good fit and to familiarize your dog with my presence. I work from home majority of the week, so walks will be given three times a day. If the weather permits, we will also go on hikes! As a dog parent myself, I understand the worry other dog parents have leaving their precious one in another’s care. Therefore, photos and updates will be sent multiple times a day unless otherwise instructed.
“Doug took my two big dogs for a 60 minute daily walk during a week that I was away. He and his family clearly love dogs and sometimes his wife and/or adult daughter would join him for the exercise and entertainment. He sent pictures, was 100% reliable, and was a great communicator. My dogs will miss their daily time with him! Thank you, Doug!”

“Emma has been wonderful taking Koda on walks! She is very diligent about Koda’s condition and even applied cold compress when Koda’s limping without me asking her to. Emma is kind, caring and punctual! Will definitely recommend Emma to anyone to care for their furry friends!”

“Kathryn and Jason were amazing pet sitters for our labradoodle while we were away! Great communications, easy to schedule drop off/ pick up, and most importantly they were very caring for our pup. She clearly had a great time with them. We will definitely book with them again!”
About: What sets me apart is the combination of hands-on experience with dogs of all ages and temperaments, along with the level of care and attention I genuinely put into every dog I look after. I’ve worked closely with a young puppy, attending training sessions and learning how to reinforce positive behaviors and create an environment where a dog can thrive. I’m comfortable continuing training routines, maintaining structure, and helping puppies build good habits. On the other end of the spectrum, I also have experience caring for senior dogs who require extra patience and support—whether that’s assisting with mobility, following specific diets, or adapting to hearing and vision loss. I regularly dog sit for friends with very different needs, from high-energy dogs who need multiple long walks a day to older dogs who require a slower pace and more hands-on care. I’ve also cared for multiple dogs at once, making sure each one gets the individual attention they need. I pride myself on being adaptable and attentive, tailoring my care to each dog’s personality, routine, and comfort level. Beyond experience, what truly sets me apart is how deeply I care. I treat every dog like family, not just a job. I’ve even gone out of my way on multiple occasions to help neighbors find their lost dogs and have successfully helped reunite them with their owners several times. I believe it’s our responsibility to create a safe, loving, and positive environment where dogs feel relaxed, happy, and encouraged—and that’s exactly the kind of care I provide every time. I work full-time with a flexible hybrid schedule, which allows me to plan ahead one or two weeks in advance for working on site or at home. On days I go into the office, I can take pups on walks in the early morning or evening. I’m fully available for boarding on weekends, and depending on my work schedule, I can also offer overnight boarding during the week. I do my best to be flexible and accommodate each dog’s routine—whether that means early morning walks, regular potty breaks, or sticking closely to their usual schedule. If your pup is used to a 7am walk, I’m more than happy to start the day early to make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I prioritize creating a safe, clean, and comfortable environment that helps every dog feel at ease, whether they’re in my home or their own. In my home, I have a private, fenced backyard that’s only accessible through my apartment, so your dog can safely enjoy fresh air. It’s partially covered as well, providing some protection from rain. Inside, I keep my space clean and dog-friendly, with cushioned area rugs to prevent slipping and give dogs a comfortable place to walk, play, or relax. I also provide cozy blankets and an outdoor dog bed so they have options for resting wherever they feel most comfortable. Cleanliness and routine are very important to me—I wash food bowls after each use and refresh water bowls daily. Dogs are welcome on my furniture, but I always respect and follow your home rules to maintain consistency. If your dog isn’t allowed on furniture, I will reinforce those same boundaries. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I’m very respectful of their space and attentive to instructions. I carefully follow all provided routines, house rules, and notes to ensure your dog experiences as much consistency and comfort as possible while you’re away.
“Zicheng was extremely accommodating and responsive. He has a great backyard and a fun dog. He texts pictures during a stay and its always reassuring. I would highly recommend Zicheng for anyone in the Peninsula.”
“Irina was a fantastic dog sitter for our Sophie! She clearly loved her, and we could tell Sophie was happy and well cared for the whole time. Irina sent lots of updates, which gave us great peace of mind. We’d happily book her again and highly recommend her!”
“Thank you Na for your outstanding dog-sitting services for our lovable Roxie!!! We appreciated the daily photos/videos keeping us informed how our dog was doing. Roxie looks forward to coming back in the future!”
About: I have a Samoyed x Standard Poodle at home, so I am very comfortable handling and caring for larger breeds! I have also cared for various dogs within my family so I are experienced with smaller dogs and different breeds. And since I work from home full time, you can expect frequent photo and video updates throughout the day so you always know your pup is happy and well looked after! I work from home full time, so your dog will never be left alone. Since I have our own dog, I already do two walks a day — so your pup will definitely be getting out and about! I have my own friendly dog at home who loves meeting new friends — he gets along great with dogs of all sizes and breeds, so your pup will always have a playmate! I also have enrichment toys and lick mats on hand to keep them stimulated and entertained.
“Kristine was wonderful with our dogs! She sent pictures of them every day and they were having a great time. She kept them over New Year’s and had a special treat for them to celebrate the new year, which was extra fun for them. We loved the special thought!”
“Surya was a fantastic sitter and I highly recommend him. My dog had a great time at his place and came back happy and spoiled. Surya did a great job dealing with my dog’s separation anxiety and helping him feel at home. He made the effort to get to know my dog and I could tell he actually spent lots of quality time with him. We got lots of photo updates. Thanks again and we will definitely be seeing you again soon!”
“I had an pawsome experience with Ruo during Tyler’s stay. She kept me updated with walks, Tyler’s mood and pictures after initial meet and greet. She shows great care for my son. Really appreciate being flexible last minute and take good good care of Tyler. Would definitely rebook and recommend her!”
“Evie watched our dog Willow for a little over a week while we were on vacation. From the regular updates we got, I can tell that she was giving so much care and attention to Willow, and that Willow loved hanging out with her as well! We really appreciate the peace of mind especially as this is the longest we’ve left our dog with a sitter on rover. We would definitely use her services again.”
About: I’ve worked with all different kinds of dogs big and small so I know what to expect with any dog, I love all dogs aswell I am a College athlete who is home for the summer so I am available during all times of the day and sometimes during night I walk, feed, pick up poop, and bathe my own dog and I also help out with my two siblings dogs when they come to visit
“Andy was absolutely wonderful with our dog, Maisie, while we were out of town. Andy sent us consistent updates during Maisie's stay and we could tell from the videos/pictures that our dog was happy, comfortable, and well taken care of. Maisie also seemed to really hit it off with Andy's dog, Milo! Would highly recommend Andy and would definitely trust him with our furbaby again!”
“Communicative and I really enjoyed seeing pictures of our pup during her stay! Stella I'm sure enjoyed all the play time and walks~ Thank you! Would love for her to stay again!”
“We are forever grateful to have met Allison. No words are enough to express how great she and her entire family are with my pooch and the other pooches under their care. Allison takes care of my Stewie like her own and my dog obviously loves his own vacation with Auntie Allison, the family and the other dogs. Thank you, thank you.”
“Leeun and her family went above and beyond to update me while I was away. They all seem to love animals and were even sad to watch her go home. My dog Beasley is a very shy girl and by day two she seemed like she had made herself at home. I couldn’t be more grateful I found such a loving family to care for her when I’m out of town. Beasley can’t wait to stay with them again.”
“Chiara took such good care of my senior dog, Mighty Mouse and I'm so glad she was available. Not only was she so kind during our meet and greet, she was so prepared to accommodate all his gear and special requests to stick to his routine once it was time for his stay. Chiara also took really cute photos of him to send to me. We'd gladly rebook with Chiara.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was a kid and now I own little two dogs. My passion is taking care of furry friends. I’m currently staying at home, so I’ll have plenty of time to play and take care of your pets. I am available all day. I have two friendly dogs. My apartment is pet friendly and very sunny, so your pet will have a change to greet with cute friends here.
About: I’ve helped many friends and family take care of their dogs while they’re away. I have experience with both small and large dogs with different personalities, including puppies under 10 months old. I am patient, attentive, and responsible. No children or pets are present in my home, and I take only dogs from one household at a time, so you can rest assured your babies will be safe, comfortable, and receive ample attention. I let dogs roam free in my home as long as they’re well-behaved, although I prefer you bringing a crate in case your dog experiences separation anxiety in a new environment. I work from home, so I have plenty of time and flexibility to play with your dog and provide frequent potty breaks and walks. I’m home most of the day except for a few hours going to the gym, running errands, etc. My home is large and spacious, with an attached/fenced balcony so your dog can get some fresh air whenever they want to. There is also a grassy dog play area right downstairs so I can take your dog potty or play outside quite frequently.
