“Ari was a lifesaver! He came to care for our dog last minute when another sitter canceled on us. He was so sweet to Lucy, and took excellent care of our home. He even sent pics of her while we were gone. We will definitely use Ari again soon!”
“Andy is the best pet sitter any pet parent can ask for. We had to go out of the country for two weeks, the longest we’ve been away from home and pet. Andy took care of our home and looked after our cat during the entire time, playing with her, keeping her engaged and sending us constant updates and pictures of her. By the end of the stay the two had bonded which was really surprising to us considering our cat gets nervous when we leave. Highly recommend Andy and we’ll definitely want him over for any of our future pet sitting needs.”
“Lux was great with my Kitties! She was great at communicating and sending me pictures and videos. I definitely trust her to take care of my kitties and house again. Thanks Lux!”
“Sophia was an excellent dog & house sitter for us! She was able to come last minute for a meet and greet before we took a weekend away. She was prompt and communicative, and we came back to two happy, relaxed pups.”
“Kathryn was absolutely amazing! She provided exceptional care, and all my furry friends adored her. Her professionalism, kindness, and attention to detail made a real difference. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet caregiver!”
“Samantha was the most caring, thoughtful sitter for my dog Bella. She sent pictures and kept me updated while I was out of town. And left my house exactly as I left it! I will absolutely use her again!”
“Kat was a good send, last minute I was in need of someone to come and take care of my 7th month old puppy and stay at my place. She responded to my post in hours and was flexible as I figured out If it could work. She agreed to come and meet me first so we can connect since this was the first time I had ever hired a dog sitter. She took great care of my puppy and it was clear she is a natural. She took our pupp6 to her office well she worked, which was great because I meant she was never alone for too long. She took great care of the house and left it in great shape. I'm so glad that I found Kat for the next time. We need a do sitter.”
About: I grew up surrounded by all kinds of pets and have owned both cats and a dog as an adult, which was a Dalmatian, describe them as eternally young. :-) I'm an active individual whose current living situation doesn't allow pets so would love to help with yours! Those of you in the Larkspur/Greenbrae area may recognize me from walks on the local paths where I’m able to greet many dogs. While on vacation, I also seek out opportunities to contribute or volunteer for various animal causes, which you’ll see in some of my pictures. I'm retired so my schedule is generally flexible unless I'm out of town for personal reasons. Choosing a more limited radius at this point enables greater schedule flexibility, and to be close to local resources should a need arise. I will pet sit in your home so that your fur baby has all of their normal comforts and routines. I realize not all owners have a fenced yard for a dog so understand the importance of daily walks. I always welcome the opportunity to meet or chat about your needs in advance, so that you may advise of any behaviors for which I'll need to be more mindful. I care for fur babies of at least one year of age. I’m allergic to cigarette smoke so that’s my only restriction. I'm a neat, tidy person who's very responsible--former homeowner.
About: Since high school I have pet sat for family and friends and I'm also a lifelong pet owner of both cats and dogs! My dog growing up was a Samoyed, giving me lots of experience in handling strong energetic dogs and I've had many cats throughout my life. Some, like my current cat Albus, were very cuddly, while others were very shy and reserved. This lifelong experience has allowed me to learn how to handle all sorts of different needs and personalities of every animal I meet and know the challenges and joys of pets at any age. Currently I have one pet named Albus, he's a very grumpy looking Norwegian Forest who loves to cuddle, take naps in the sun, and people watch through the windows of our house. He is also very mischievous and likes to mess with people by laying right where he knows you'll walk so he gets extra pets with no effort! All of this gives me the experience needed to ensure your pets get lots of playtime, daily walks, plenty of treats, as many pets as your fur-baby desires, and making sure they get any pills they need on time! I also know how stressful traveling away from your pet can be, so I will be sending plenty of pictures and will respond to any texts as quickly as possible to ensure you won't have to stress during your vacation! My shedule is very flexible, occasionally I will be out of town on contract but in the time I am home I will be able to cater to your pets schedule. I'll keep a close eye on your pet while I'm there and my main goal is to make sure their usual schedule is kept! so the more details of pet care you can give me the better. I'll make sure they get walks, meals, medicine etc. at the correct times to ensure the health and happiness of your pet. I am also happy to do household tasks like watering plants or taking out the trash. I will also always ensure all doors are locked, and there's a light on when I leave (unless requested otherwise) to make sure your pet is as safe as possible while I'm away.
“Carmelo did a wonderful job staying in my house with Bentley and Benji while we were away for a six days. He sent photos daily, communicated often and my house looked perfect when I arrived home. The pups were happy and healthy. Thanks Carmelo, I will definitely call you again.”
“Stella was an incredible cat sitter! She did exactly what I asked, sent great photos during every visit, and clearly loves and understands cats. When I forgot to mention Milo’s dry food, she went out of her way to make sure he had everything he needed, such a thoughtful and responsible gesture. She was super easy to communicate with and clearly took her role seriously. I felt totally at ease knowing my kitties were in her care. Highly recommend!”

About: For house-sitting, please message us to discuss availability. We may have more availability than listed on Rover! Ryane and Dave are a couple with decades of experience in pet care. Between us, we have provided care for dogs, cats, small animals, birds (including raptors), reptiles, fish, and exotics. Our experience includes providing medication and taking care of special needs animals. Both Ryane and Dave have advanced degrees in animal-related fields; Ryane has a Ph.D in Animal Behavior and Dave has a Master's degree in Avian Science. Both of us have devoted our lives and careers to learning about and caring for various animals. Our experience through both research and wildlife rehab has given us plenty of hands-on medical experience with animals. Our former cat, Charlie, needed up to 8 medications a day for the last year of her life, and we understand just how hard it can be to travel when you have a high-needs companion. We hope our years of professional and personal experience caring for animals will help alleviate your anxieties, knowing your critters are in capable and loving hands. Please feel free to reach out to us to discuss if we are a good fit for watching your animal(s). Our schedule changes regularly and Rover may not be up to date; we may be able to accommodate requests outside of our listed calendar. Please message us to discuss options. Ryane currently works full time Tuesday-Saturday, but Dave's work is remote, so one of us is usually around to give care to your animals when needed! Please note that we are often balancing our work with pet care, so understanding your pet's individual care needs throughout the day is important to determining if we are a good fit. Please provide as much information as you can! We pride ourselves on leaving our client's home as clean as we found it and will always treat your home with the utmost respect. We do our best to follow your pet's established schedules and routines, making your time away as easy on your pet as possible! We are also able to provide regular house care (e.g. plant watering, etc.), just let us know what is needed!

“Lindsay was a perfect dog and house sitter while my wife and I were on vacation. It was so great knowing our precious older dogs were being well taken care of as Lindsay updated us on a daily basis. Will absolutely be hiring her again if she’s available.”
“I have had several people from rover stay with Steele. Andrew is the best. He won Steele over with the treats he brought for the meet and greet. During the stay he walked Steele as many as three times a day, took him to the beach, and sent lots of adorable photos. He’s professional, friendly and really cares about my pup. He will be my go to dog sitter.”

I would highly recommend Emory to care for your pet.”

Jody C.
“I am pleased to recommend Jody Cardo for her outstanding care and dedication as a pet sitter and dog walker. Jody cared for my dog for over a decade, and I couldn't be happier with her services. Jody went above and beyond to ensure Cleo was well cared for—walking her regularly, engaging her in games, and maintaining her food, water, and medication schedule. Her attention to detail and genuine love for dogs gave me complete peace of mind. I highly recommend Jody to anyone seeking a responsible, dependable, and caring pet sitter or dog walker. She has been an invaluable resource, and I'm confident your pets will be in great hands with her.”

Katya would send us pictures and was responsive when we wanted to check in. The house was also in great shape when we returned... you would never know someone was staying there while we were gone! 5/5 would recommend Katya!”

Gavin K.
“I have a very shy rescue pit bull (Ziggy), who is especially nervous around men. Recently I started having Gavin both walk him and do over nights. Not only does my dog go right to Gavin, he wags his whole body when he arrives to pick him up. The change is not just during drop off and pick up, Ziggy is better on the leash and listening to voice commands than ever. He is calmer and seems to be more trusting. If Gavin can help with a very traumatized rescue, he can help any dog. He’s a great person to have walk and care for your dog.”
Shawna M.
“Shawna was reliable, flexible, communicated well and in a timely manner, worked really well with our dog, and cared for our home like her own. If there was something that came she didn’t hesitate to let us know. Thanks Shawna, we would be happy to hire you again!”
