“I truly can’t say enough good things about Jaime! From start to finish, she went above and beyond in every way. She was incredibly communicative — sending thoughtful updates, photos, and check-ins that gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. The biggest testament to her care? I came home to a happy, relaxed fur child who genuinely seemed like they hadn’t even noticed I was gone. That tells me everything I need to know about how loved and comfortable my child felt in her care. It’s not easy trusting someone with your furry family member, but she made it effortless. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, attentive, and compassionate sitter — and I would love to use her again anytime I need support. So grateful to have found her!”
“Tianyu was great! She was extremely responsive during her stay with our older dog, Otis, and provided great updates and photos/videos. She kept our house and backyard extra clean. We will book with her again in the future!”
“I love having Sejla come and stay with my dog and two cats. I know that they are going to be well taken care of and loved and nurtured just as if I were home. She is amazing and I know when I go away I will be able to do so knowing with full confidence my fur babies are in great hands.”
“Michelle has been an absolutely WONDERFUL in home sitter for us. She was attentive and detail oriented during the meet and greet and clearly has a good sense of how to handle various temperaments in animals. She sent us updates twice daily and included several pictures making us feel like our guy was getting very well taken care of. I would absolutely recommend Michelle to anyone!”
“Ava always does a great job watching Lucie! She’s very communicative, responsible, and sweet. She always leaves our place clean and our pup always has a wonderful time with her! Highly recommend Ava!!🫶🏻”
“Rachel was wonderful with our energetic little dog. She left the house cleaner than we left it, gave her lots of activity and love, and was an excellent communicator! I felt so safe having her with Little Bear!”
“Chris was extremely helpful during a time of need for our dogs Sage and Huey! He was dedicated, professional, and took the best care of our two dogs. He even made an extra trip when asked and we are extremely grateful for his help. We would love to work with him again in the future! 10/10 highly recommended!”
“Stephanie took great care of our 1.2-year-old golden retriever, Bidu, while staying at our home for five nights, and we had a wonderful experience with her! She was responsible, communicative, and clearly great with dogs. We came home to a happy, well-cared-for pup and a house just as we left it. Her updates throughout gave us peace of mind, and it was clear that Bidu felt comfortable and well looked after. We’d happily have Stephanie stay with him again in the future!”
“As a first time rover user i was pretty hesitant to use the app, but Tiana has ensured that i use it more going forward. She is prompt, shares lots of pet pics while im away, and i think my cat ended up missing her when i got back”
“Highly recommend Donna as both a dog and house sitter. My plants did better while I was gone than when I'm at home, the house was perfectly clean, and I got lots of sweet photos during our time away. Donna responds quickly to messages, shows up on time, and was willing to put in the time to get to know our reactive pup. So grateful to have found such a great dog sitter!”
About: I take direction very well and have lots of experience caring for cats. I always pay attention to cats' body language and make sure not to cross boundaries if they are not receptive to strangers. With that being said, I am comfortable with most types of routine care tasks I'm working part-time and going to school part-time, so I can be flexible to drop by your place (multiple times throughout the day if needed) to care for your fur baby I respect any and all rules that you have for your place and will adhere to them. I am mindful of hazards within as well as outside the home and will be sure to notify you if I observe anything that is out of the ordinary for your peace of mind.
“Diana was excellent housesitting my two dogs Daisy and Uno. She asked all the right questions before I left town to ensure the sit would go smoothly and she sent updates twice a day every day. Overall a great experience, would recommend”
“Elizabeth stayed with my Pomeranians for most of November due to work travel and then a personal trip over Thanksgiving. I always hate being away from my pups, but after the first two short stays for my business trips, I felt really good about being far away for 10 days over Thanksgiving, knowing they were in good hands. As always, Elizabeth was communicative, responsive and I could really tell she was getting to know their personalities and quirks. She also sent really fun updates, with a bit of humor and witty writing, but even better, the stories she texted me about were spot on with how they behave as a little pack. In addition, after her stay, I was putting harnesses on them to go on a walk, I noticed that my 9 month old pup Evie, who always ran around crazy when it was walk time and wouldn’t let me put her harness on, was coming up to me to get her harness put on. So, not only did she take good care of them, she somehow got Evie to understand how to put her harness on, and that chase was not part of that process. I’ll be forever grateful for whatever magic she did to get Evie to want to put on her harness! I will absolutely use Elizabeth again and highly recommend her to stay with your pets while on vacation or business travel.”
About: Have been caring primarily for cats and some elder dogs since 2020. Friends, neighbors, and family know I am the go to person for all their pet sitting needs. Currently living at home with my parents and am available 7 days a week and for a wide variety of hours. Devoting my time caring for your pets. Very good at following your instructions for feeding, brushing, as well as litter box refresh and other "accident" clean up. I particularly enjoy the "Playful Activities" part of caring for your fur baby.
“Amadita was AMAZING with our Bouzy! Incredibly accommodating and playful with her while we were away. It’s great to have a reliable sitter - will definitely book with Amadita again 😊😊”
“We are so so happy with Erika! She’s an absolute animal lover, and our dogs were comfortable with her immediately. Amazing communication and sending us pictures and updates the whole time the…peace of mind we needed. Thank you Erika!”
About: I've been around animals since I was a kid and currently care for a cat and 2 budgies! I've helped friends out in the past by pet sitting cats, chickens, and a tortoise. I also love dogs and do well around them. I love animals of all kinds and I'm experienced and prepared to give your pets the best care possible while you're gone to make sure they feel comfortable and safe! I'm currently on summer break, so I have plenty of time on my hands to care for your animals! Until I go back to university in mid-August, I'm free to take on jobs any time besides between July 9th-July 14th. I will provide incredible care for any pets you may have. I'm patient and understanding of each animal's unique needs and personalities. I can send updates and pictures of each visit so you know your pets are doing well.
“Stephanie was amazing with our dog! She was great at communicating and felt extremely comfortable with leaving my dog in her hands! I will definitely be asking her to dog sit again!!”
“Kristine was amazing with our dog, she kept us updated throughout, followed all the instructions perfectly and our dog loved her. She made me feel at ease and our dog naturally trusted her. She’s very easy to talk to and responds almost immediately for any questions. We would definitely use her help again in the future.”
“Edison is the best! Easy to work with, professional, and well versed in the area. We trust him 100% with Charlie and being in our home, and Charlie is always happy and tired afterwards. We’re keeping him on our roster, he’s a good egg.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - West San Jose
Seva was amazing. This was the first time that we used Rover and had someone other than family take care of Chip. Chip is 17 years old and has anxiety when the family is not home. Seva took such good care of Chip and would send pictures and updates throughout her time with him. As we were off celebrating my daughter's wedding, it was great to know that Chip was well taken care of by Seva, who is very experienced with dogs especially older ones. It was one less thing for me to worry about. Thank you Seva!!
Hannah was a wonderful sitter! We booked her last minute and it worked out really well. She came to our home to take care of our cat and her kittens. She communicated very well every day, sent several photos, and followed the instructions we left her. Our cats loved her! What I appreciated was that she did a meet and greet beforehand. The cats were cared for well and we’d love to have her sit again in the future.
We’re very picky and particular dog parents and we’re very thrilled to find Ryan! He and his wife Maria make a good team and we’re relieved that they can cover each other especially since our dog needs meds in the middle of the day. Ryan was super communicative, and followed all of our Barney’s routines to precision! We highly recommend Ryan and Maria!
Jamie was absolutely wonderful! She stayed overnight with my dogs and gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. She was incredibly communicative, kept me updated throughout her stay, and sent lots of pictures, which I really appreciated. It was clear my dogs were well cared for and comfortable with her. I would absolutely recommend Jamie to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful, and caring pet sitter, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again!
Kristina was fantastic with both our dog and cat! I would consider myself a cautious customer with a reasonably high level of expectation. Kristina exceeded my expectation for sure. I was able to relax on vacation because I knew both animals were well cared for and happy. Kristina spent quality time with both and was appropriately communicative. Our dog usually doesn’t eat much because he gets stressed but he ate well and enjoyed his time with his new friend. Our cat rarely appears with any guest, but for Kristina he came out of his room and was up for some pets and a chat. I would highly recommend Kristina for your dog/ cat sitting needs.
Alison was super! Very responsive and clear in communications. Very good creating trust and comfort with all three pups... And the pups' owners! Our anxious dog, Emma, was soon sitting on Alison's lap. The dogs were so comfortable that they were relaxed and playing with each other in no time. Will definitely look up Alison for future sits.
Rachel was an amazing sitter! She was attentive, great at communicating and took such good care of our fur baby Charlie! This was our first time having a Rover sitter and we were very skeptical at first, but Rachel made us feel super comfortable and made sure to update us throughout our trip. Our boy Charlie had a blast playing with her. We have already re-booked Rachel for our next upcoming trip! 10/10 service and would 100% recommend!
Emily was really helpful and communicative house sitter. We received regular photo updates that put our minds at ease since we were out of country. When we saw our pup Ayla she seemed well adjusted and calmer than when we left her! We will be reaching out in the future to continue working with her in the future and recommend you do as well!
Pierce was absolutely wonderful with our dogs, Eva Jolie, Chloe, and Simba. It was clear from the moment we got home that they were well cared for, comfortable, and happy during their stay. Eva Jolie, Chloe, and Simba all seemed relaxed, content, and received plenty of love and attention. Pierce kept us updated. It gave us tremendous peace of mind knowing they were in such caring hands. We would not hesitate to trust Pierce with our dogs again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a dependable pet caregiver.
Mamoo did a fabulous house sitting job while we were out of town for four days. Was very proactive with sending pictures and videos several times a day. Our two dogs appeared to really enjoy Mamoo. The house was in as good or better shape than when we left! Very pleased with Mamoo!
