“Ching-Chi did a wonderful job caring for our pets. She came on time for the drop-in visits every day, and was very communicative, providing lots of photos of our happy pets. She is very conscientious and professional as well as being kind to the animals she cares for. I highly recommend her!”

About: Hi there! My name is Driana, and I’m a passionate dog lover living in San Francisco right near Golden Gate Park and Ocean Beach. Growing up, I had a sweet Shih Tzu, and later in life, I raised a Doberman from a tiny puppy all the way into adulthood. While I don’t currently own a dog of my own, caring for pups has always been a huge part of my life, and I’d love to share that love and attention with yours! My availability 🗓️️: - Mon – Sat: Open availability morning through evening! - Sundays: Available upon request with advance notice. - Flexibility: Work as a barista, but schedules come out a week in advance—so if you give me a heads up, I can easily build my shifts around your pet’s exact routine! Home Environment & Compatibility: - Prime Location: I'm located in the Outer Richmond, two blocks from both Golden Gate Park and Ocean Beach, giving us immediate access to great, safe walking trails and away from busy streets! - Quiet & Peaceful: I live with dog loving roommates, but to respect their space and our downstairs neighbors, my home is best suited for calm pups who aren't frequent barkers. Safety & Care: - Outdoors: Dogs are always kept securely on leash during park and beach walks. I also have a huge backyard for zoomies/potty breaks throughout the day. - Indoors: I ensure a tidy, dog-proofed space where your pup can relax safely, complete with frequent photo updates to keep you connected throughout their stay :)
“My cats warmed up to Jessica very quickly (quicker than any other cat sitter or house guest). She was able to get them to exercise/play and sent great pictures while we were away!”

“Selena has been amazing with my 10-week-old puppy! 🐶💕 I booked repeated 30-minute drop-ins while I’m at work, and the first week has gone so smoothly. She followed all instructions and showed so much love and care. She even suggested a bath when she noticed some scratching—super helpful advice! I feel totally at ease knowing my puppy is in such good hands. 🐾💛”

About: Having raised and trained a puppy from scratch and cared for family dogs into their golden years, I know how to match your dog’s specific pace. I focus on positive reinforcement, enriching sniff breaks, and engaging playtime. Whether your dog needs an energetic adventure, puppy-level patience, or a gentle neighborhood stroll, they get attentive, reliable care. With a completely open and flexible schedule right now, pet care is my primary daily focus rather than something squeezed around an office job. I’m available throughout the day for morning outings, peak midday potty breaks, and evening walks. Having full flexibility allows me to give your dog calm, unhurried attention and accommodate changing schedules easily. Having raised a rescue dog who was initially prone to door-dashing, situational awareness is second nature to me. Whether securing entryways or keeping a watchful eye on neighborhood walks, I’m very comfortable navigating more sensitive or challenging behaviors with calm, steady patience. Alongside safety, I believe genuine play is essential - I always make time for fun games, positive energy, and active engagement. Most of all, I treat your home with complete respect and follow your established routines, knowing firsthand how essential consistency is for a dog’s confidence and comfort.
“Anke has been amazing with our Zoey, she’s is prompt follows the instructions we have to help us maintain our training with Zoey. Anke has been a great find for our Zoey and our family. The Arteaga’s”


“Katy is awesome! We needed a last minute drop-in sitter over the holidays and she was quick to respond. She was on time for our first meeting and did a great job at ignoring our anxious dogs until they became used to her. She also came for a second meeting just to walk the dogs and go over last minute instructions. This was our first time using rover and a dog-sitter we did not know. Katy is confident, compassionate, and hard working and we will definitely be using her to care for our sweet neurotic dogs again. They love her and we appreciate knowing they are in good hands.”


About: I have hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats for friends. I’ve cared for pets in my home for extended stays of up to a month at a time, so I’m comfortable being responsible for their daily routine and making sure they feel safe and comfortable while away from their owners. I’ve handled feeding, walks, playtime, basic cleanup, and lots of attention and companionship. I enjoy spending time with animals and take their routines and individual needs seriously. I have a flexible weekday schedule and can step away from work for a few hours when needed, which gives me plenty of flexibility for daytime drop-in visits and walks. I’m also available before and after work and on weekends. I’m happy to work around your pet’s usual feeding, walking, and playtime routine. I take pet safety and routines seriously. I follow each owner’s instructions for feeding, walks, medications if needed, and any house rules. During drop-in visits, I’ll make sure doors and gates are secure, keep your pet comfortable, and send updates so you know how they’re doing.

Your furry friends are my top priority, and I provide attention to detail, ensuring their routines are followed meticulously, from feeding schedules to playtime activities.

Let me provide the care and companionship your pets deserve, allowing you to have peace of mind knowing they are in the hands of a dedicated and compassionate pet sitter. I'm currently working a full-time job, which limits my schedule to after 5 p.m. After then, I'm available whenever to take care of your friends! In caring for pets in my client's home, I prioritize their comfort, well-being, and happiness. I adhere strictly to the routine and schedule provided by the pet owner. I create a safe and stimulating environment for the pets by maintaining cleanliness in their living spaces, providing fresh water and nutritious meals, and ensuring their favorite toys and bedding are readily available. I engage them in regular playtime and exercise activities, tailoring these interactions to suit their individual needs and energy levels. Additionally, I offer companionship and affection, easing any separation anxiety they might experience in the absence of their owners. I am vigilant about their health and safety, closely monitoring their behavior and well-being throughout my stay. Lastly, I maintain open communication with the pet owners, providing regular updates and photos to keep them informed about their pets' activities and overall condition.

About: I've had three dogs in my life. I have some training experience with them and have cared for many of my friends' and acquaintances' pets. Looking forward to supporting wherever I can I have pretty open availability right now. Though I do have a daughter in high school, who needs me for drop off and pick ups. It should not be a hindrance b I keep my cats indoors. And my dogs as well. They are crate trained so I can crate your pet as well and am familiar with the process of crate training.
“Tushar came for a drop-in visit for our (more difficult) dog when we were gone for a day trip and was so great! Tushar was super reliable, responsive, and timely, both with the visit and a meet and greet prior to the drop-in. Our dog can be very reactive to strangers in the house when first meeting them, but Tushar and Mattie handled it very well at the first encounter and won her over within a few seconds. It really put our minds at ease for the drop-in visit when we weren’t going to be home. Our dog was so excited to see Tushar again, she had a little accident upon his visit ? Thankfully Tushar very willingly helped us clean that up before we even knew it had happened! During the visit, Tushar also sent lots of pictures and videos of our dog having a great time together, and made sure all her business was taken care, which we certainly appreciated. We definitely will trust Tushar to take care of our dog for future drop in visits. Thanks so much Tushar!”

“Katryna took such great care of our cats! She is kind, caring, detail-oriented, and dependable. She sent lots of cute photos and updates while we were away. I highly recommend Katryna!”

“I had such a great experience with Diana! My dog took to her immediately, which says a lot—she’s a young puppy new to our home, so she has been very shy as she warms up to people. Diana clearly has a natural way with animals and made her feel safe and comfortable right away. It gave me real peace of mind knowing she was in such caring and capable hands. Highly recommend Diana to anyone looking for a reliable and loving sitter!”

I highly recommend Jo to watch your animals! She is patient, considerate, and takes initiative with not only our babies, but also our home. Our Chiweenie takes time to get used to new people but snuggled up with Jo quickly. Jo communicates well and made me feel at ease knowing our dogs were under her care. I will not hesitate to reach out to Jo in the future!

Likang went above and beyoooond for my babies! I was away for over a solid week. During that time, I received clear updates on my two cat’s welfare. She was not only on top of their basic needs such as water, food, and play, but she went beyond making sure my long haired girl was brushed daily and my big shorthair boy got his needed loving attention. Bowls were washed daily, auto litter drawer and area kept clean, and just so much more. Plus, any funny, odd, or normal cat behaviors were communicated clearly to me. Likang really went all out. I’m so happy with her help and appreciate all the amazing pics and videos that went along with it 🙏❤️ I can just see how much my kitties loved having you with them!

Our cat loves Teresa at the first sight! 😄 Teresa took great care of him and gave him lots of attention and pampering. Teresa also sent generous photos with food and litter box updates to let us know our cat has been doing well, and she took great photos - our cat looked like a star! 🥰
Hannah is such an amazing cat sitter--i cant recommend her enough! Her care and attention to detail is top notch. I know that my kitties are in good with her which means so much to me! Thank you for your constant dedication to excellent care--it's much appreciated.

lucy was FANTASTIC!!! i generally have pretty bad anxiety when traveling for long periods and being away from our kitties, but i felt so reassured that they were being well taken care of by lucy! she gave amazing, thorough updates with very cute pics. she truly went above and beyond on all aspects of their care, and i really felt like she understood both of their personalities and needs, while simultaneously respecting their boundaries (we have 1 🌶️ cat lol).

This was our first visit from Michelle and we can already tell it’s the beginning of a beautiful relationship! Twyla seemed to warm up to her quickly, even asking for belly rubs, which she does not do for anyone other than her closest humans. Michelle was communicative, thoughtful, and sent lots of photos.
