About: I have over 15 years of experience pet sitting for cats and caring for dogs for friends, family, and extended networks. I grew up with two Dalmatians and a chocolate Labrador, so I’m very comfortable with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments. I also volunteered for 7 years at the Humane Society SPCA, where I worked hands-on with dogs, including training and behavior support. Through this experience, I’ve developed confidence handling a wide range of personalities—from high-energy dogs to more anxious or sensitive pets. I currently have a 9-year-old black cat named Peter, and I’m especially skilled with cats. I understand their behavior, respect their boundaries, and know how to build trust—even with shy or more reserved cats. I’m reliable, attentive, and treat every pet like my own. I’m happy to follow routines closely and ensure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. Flexible schedule with availability weekdays and weekends for drop-ins and walks. I prioritize consistency, follow routines closely, and ensure reliable, attentive care for your pet. I create a calm, safe environment, follow all care instructions, respect boundaries, and provide attentive care. Experienced with shy or anxious cats and build trust patiently.
“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.”

“Mara was amazing with my 2 Huskies - One of whom is a rescue and very slow to warm up to people. We booked her for daily walks while we were on vacation and she was prompt and attentive everyday, sending pictures and bringing treats. I will definitely use Mara again.”


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.

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.
“Joann was absolutely amazing with our 5 year old service pup from start to finish - we met about a week before and she was super open and accommodating about our specific requests regarding his training! Thank you so much Joann, we really appreciate you!”

I’m a responsible, reliable dog sitter with hands-on experience caring for dogs of different personalities and needs.

“Peter was great! He was so good with Norman and he sent me lots of photos. When he came for our original meet and greet, he was right on time and so personable! I will definitely use him again!”

“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!”

Western Hills dog parents share their Rover experiences
Shirley's sister took care my old and stubborn dog very well. She doesn't force him to walk long, she read the dog's needs. My dog is healthy and happy to see her everyday. She communicated well with me also, sent me not only pictures, but also a detailed description about Milo's behavior and status.

Holly has been amazing with my puppy, Rocco. She’s incredibly friendly, patient, and gentle, and you can tell she genuinely cares. Rocco is always excited to see her and comes back happy every time. I feel completely at ease knowing he’s in such good hands. Highly recommend!

Deborah has been wonderful with our dog. Before starting walks, she took the time to come meet him and really get to know his personality, routines, and some of his quirky (and occasionally challenging) behaviors. It was clear right away that she has a very natural way with dogs and a calm, confident presence that puts them at ease. She has been especially thoughtful about helping him improve his leash walking and is very attentive during their time together. Because he has had previous injuries, she’s careful to monitor his behavior and energy levels to make sure he doesn’t overdo it, which we really appreciate. Deborah is patient, observant, and genuinely cares about the dogs she works with. We feel very comfortable knowing he’s in such capable and attentive hands. Highly recommend!

Anmol is fantastic! We were initially worried about finding the right fit for Bagel, our high-energy Belgian Malinois mix, but Anmol’s calm energy was exactly what he needed. They got along famously, and it gives us such peace of mind knowing he is in safe, caring hands. The whole experience was completely carefree—we will definitely be booking with her again and highly recommend her to any other dog parents!
