“Kimberly is great- Emmy loves her! She makes traveling so much easier, and she takes adorable photos of Emmy with the zoomies, playing hide-and-seek, and curled up looking cozy. Couldn't be happier!”
“We absolutely loved Genevieve, but more importantly, our little pups loved her. Genevieve is a fantastic communicator, clearly loves dogs, and was so respectful of our space, a calming presence for our girls who were wondering who this new person was in their habitat. We would have her come back anytime we weren't able to travel with the pups. My only hesitation in leaving a glowing review is that she won't be available for us because you will all want to book her.”
“Zoe was amazing with Barfi. She spent a lot of time with him and bonded really well with him. We were out on a long trip and Zoe made it super stress-free for us by being proactive in sending updates, giving Barfi a lot of attention and care. Definitely recommend her and look forward to getting her help again for Barfi.”
“John took excellent care of Lucy and the house while house sitting. Sent lots of updates and pictures so I felt I knew exactly how everything was going while I was away. Would absolutely love to have John take care of Lucy the next time we need to go out of town.”
“Marion did a great job house sitting for a few days. She was very responsible and asked great questions during our meet and great. Would definitely trust her to take care of our house and cat again in the future.”
“Trina and her dog cubby were excellent while taking care of our very energetic and sometimes anxious dog. Reliable, sent lots of photos, and our dog seemed very comfortable with her and cubby. Would definitely book again with her.”
“Jeannette was great. Kept me informed when she got Jake in at night. She even came early the day I departed and stayed late the day I was returning to let Jake out and get Jake in. Everything was perfect when I came home.”
“CJ took care of my dog Simón for 13 nights at my home, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. From the start, he was professional, attentive, and clearly caring with Simón. Throughout my time away, CJ kept me updated with photos and messages, which gave me great peace of mind. When I returned, Simón was happy and relaxed, and my home was just as I left it. I highly recommend CJ and would absolutely trust him to care for Simón again in the future. Thank you so much!”
“MJ, with only a one day notice provided excellent house sitting services for my 2 year old German Shorthaired Pointer. Sherman is also a large and strong GSP and MJ handled him with such delicate and professional care. MJ went above and beyond to provide training, and improved Shermans leash aggression. I just can't say enough about how grateful I am that Rover has such quality people like MJ. I feel like I found my Rover. Can't wait to book again.”
“Amara was so friendly and flexible. The dogs really liked her a lot. She took very good care of our house and left it cleaner than she found it. We will definitely book with Amara again!”
“Arianna cares about my dogs and she even got new toys for my dogs during her stay. It’s easy to communicate with her and my dogs look extremely happy when I get back home.”
“Shalese is amazing! She made me feel super comfortable leaving my reactive dog for a few days and they got along so well! Will definitely book any time I need someone to watch my girl.”
About: My family has fostered puppies and kittens since I was 10, giving me over 12 years of experience in caring for animals. I love giving animals the best care possible and I’d love to meet yours! I currently work a hybrid schedule on the Stanford campus, allowing me to offer care in the mornings and evenings, as well as over lunch if needed. I’m also open to full-time care on the weekends and would love to spend time with your animals! Keeping your animals safe is my top priority! Understanding and upholding your expectations with your animals is my goal and key to keeping your animals safe!
“Sara was SO amazing! She was very attentive to Finny’s care instructions and sent plenty of videos and pictures to put my mind at ease while I was away from my kitty. Finny warmed up to her way faster than he usually does to new people, and she even brought him a new toy! I highly recommend her for house and pet sitting and will definitely be booking her again in the future :)”
“Maria was great with Cooper! She is very reliable and excellent at communicating & sharing updates after every interaction. We always get nervous when traveling, but she quickly put us at ease. We’ll definitely book her again. 🐾”
About: I’ve cared for and owned dogs, cats, reptiles, and rats since I was a kid. I love dogs of all sizes and cats of all temperaments. Currently I just have a quail. I love caring for animals of all kind! I am patient and am open to caring for pets with special needs, especially with detailed instructions. Non-traditional pets don’t scare me, although spiders are not my favorite. They’re cute, I just don’t want to touch them. Haha. Am happy to take doggos on fun outdoor walks and give them lots of exercise! Cats will get lots of exercise, playing, and love, catered to their preferences. I currently work part-time tutoring kiddos virtually, and caring for my elderly Father-in-law in Monterey some weekends. I prefer drop-in care and giving walks, but am open to house-sitting depending on the details. I am happy to come to your home to meet and talk about the care if your pet(s). I live in a small apartment, so I won't be boarding any animals. Not only do I follow instructions well (I’m an elementary teacher, so I’m good at that), I also love to give animals snuggles and care and am happy to send hourly pictures.
About: Hi, I’m Paula! I know that in the Bay Area, our pets aren’t just animals, they’re family. Whether you’re heading to a tech summit, a weekend in Tahoe or just have a long day at the office, I’m here to provide peace of mind. :) I’m currently working part-time, flexible schedule!! I’m sure I’ll be able to help you take care of your most precious baby!! I have a fence yard at home for those pups and kitties that need to stay over night! Very safe area and amazing safe space to be around.
About: I grew up in a multiple pet family; taking care of the cats, ducks and family dog. Over the last couple decades I have rescued animals including my cat 20 years ago. I have also enjoyed caring for my friends and family animals while away, and any stray wildlife that comes my way too:) Right now I am working to start a resin company, and have a very flexible schedule. My care schedule for my animals is structured but flexible, so we can work with many different demands, my cat communicates surprisingly well :) I follow whatever instructions are given before and during visits, care and safety are of the utmost importance. If there is ever a question, I do really love communication so I'm asking and my ears are always perked!

Kimberly watched over our house and our very active, 2 year old Australian Shepherd for a week. During the week we were away Kimberly was very communicative, texting and sending pictures or videos every day. Our dog was well cared for, got great exercise and socialization. We returned to a house that was clean, neat and also well cared for. We highly recommend Kimberly.
Jeanette took exceptional care of Bella while we were out of the country for two weeks. She treated Bella as if she were her own, followed her routine carefully, and kept us updated regularly with messages and photos. Knowing Bella was in such caring and capable hands gave us complete peace of mind, so we were able to truly enjoy our trip without worrying. Jeanette also went above and beyond by collecting our mail and watering our houseplants, which we really appreciated. When we returned, Bella was happy, healthy, and clearly very comfortable with Jeanette. In fact, Bella seemed to miss her after she left, which speaks volumes about the wonderful bond they formed during those two weeks. We couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter and would absolutely trust Jeanette with Bella again
Mica took wonderful care of our German Shepherd! She sent us great photos, took him on some nice walks, and kept us updated with excellent communication. We would absolutely book with Mica again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful dog sitter!
Emma looked after our house and, more particularly, our senior dog while we were away for two weeks. Emma provided regular updates and photos of our dog, which was great as it was the first time we had left her. Our dog was obviously very happy with Emma and seems quite disappointed to have been left behind with us. LOL. Emma left the house in perfect shape too.
What a wonderful experience for both my dog and I. Very attentive, detail oriented, and real care and effort put into her stay and caring for my dog. Great communication and shared many wonderful pictures and updates throughout the stay. Left my house looking better than I had left it. Would 💯 recommend and use again! She is wonderful
Is there a 6-star option? There should be! Stephen did an excellent job of caring for my dog and my house. From the pre-stay visit, to the gentle and appropriate reminders, detailed notes, and the charming and informative daily updates. Bonus: new skills and tricks were learned by my pooch! Stephen's gentle and calm approach -- superb!
Rachel was fantastic. She house sat for dog for seven days. From the beginning, she was communicative, responsive, and incredibly responsible. She sent regular updates and photos throughout the stay—enough that I always knew Banjo was doing well, but never so many that it felt excessive. When I got home, Banjo was relaxed, happy, and completely himself, which honestly tells me everything I need to know. He’s a pretty affectionate little Velcro dog, and it was obvious he’d been well cared for. Rachel even came back later to take him on one last walk because of my return time, let me know when he’d last gone potty, and left him with a Kong before she headed out. Those little thoughtful touches really stood out. She also left my home spotless and organized, and I felt completely comfortable having her in both my home and Banjo’s care. Being able to travel without worrying about your dog is priceless, and Rachel gave me exactly that. I was able to be present with my family because I knew he was safe, happy, and in excellent hands. I genuinely can’t think of anything she could have done better. I’d book her again without hesitation and recommend her to anyone looking for an exceptional sitter.
Austin was phenomenal! Super communicative and helpful. I am so grateful for his excellent care of our 2 corgis. This was our first time using a sitter who wasn’t family, and Austin made the experience so easy from the initial meet and greet through the end of the sit. I will definitely book again the next time we travel!
I’m 100% satisfied with how CJ cared for our dog and our home while we were away. He quickly made friends with our Coda, managed her different medications, played with her and took loads of pictures which he sent us twice daily with updates. He even took out the trash, washed the sheets and remade the bed. Definitely would book CJ for our future needs!
Kendall is terrific. She cares and connected quickly with my pup. She is conscientious, offered to come and meet my dog before the visit. She asked questions about emergency plans, feeding, medications and her best schedule. She was tidy, punctual and helpful, even sending me photos and relaying my dogs attitude and energy level throughout her stay. I highly recommend Kendall - 5 stars!
We had an excellent experience with Julie and would highly recommend her. Her communication was outstanding from start to finish, and we appreciated the daily photos and updates that kept us informed and reassured while we were away. Julie was punctual, dependable, and clearly cared for our dog as if it were her own. We also returned to a spotless home, which was such a wonderful bonus after traveling. We wouldn't hesitate to book with Julie again!
Korinne was fantastic. She took care of my kitty for 4 days and spent ample time with him, stayed the night, provided several updates a day and made me feel that he was well taken care of. Will definitely try to have her visit again in the future when I need help!
This was our second time booking Stephanie to watch our senior dog. She took great care of her and we came home to a happy dog. We appreciated that she took out the trash and kept our house clean. We are thankful to have found a great sitter to give us peace of mind while we’re traveling. Thanks for all of your help, Stephanie!
