Brad was a life saver. He bailed me and my dogs out when our current Rover sitter had to leave town and the dogs had no one to care for them. Brad responded quickly, professionally and was excellent with the dogs. This was a big concern, since I would not be there to introduce him to the dogs. Brad took care of it on his own and was able to charm Bento and Ada. Very much appreciated, thank you!

Jaclyn and Aaron work as a team and they did a great job! They sent lots of pictures and stayed in touch for my entire trip. They even hung out, played with my cats, and gave me updates as my kitties warmed up to them. I appreciate that I got a two-for-one deal with a caring couple!

Kyle is a wonderful pet sitter! She watches my cat Stevie when I’m out out of town and is always very attentive, caring, and loving. Stevie (who hates most people) loves Kyle. She does the tasks I ask of her (feeding, replacing the water, cleaning the litter boxes) in a diligent manner and always goes above and beyond to make sure they’re well taken care of. I’ve also been with Kyle while dog-sitting and all the above applies. She is very animal intelligent and loves being around them.

Yixin took very good care of my cats, she followed all my instructions and sent some very cute videos. It’s very apparent she is a big animal lover, and will treat your pets as if they were her own. We came back to happy and healthy kitties, will definitely book her again next time!!

About: As a pet sitter, my approach is centered on personalized care tailored to each furry friend's specific needs. What sets me apart is my expertise in catering to diverse needs, be it training puppies with positive reinforcement techniques or offering specialized care for senior pets, ensuring their comfort and well-being. I prioritize understanding their unique personalities, providing companionship, administering medications, and maintaining a safe, stimulating environment. My commitment to going the extra mile in creating a loving, trustworthy, and skillful pet care experience truly sets me apart from other sitters. I'm currently a mater school student and I'm on the winter break right now, so I'll have plenty of time to play with your pups, I'm available for boarding on weekends I leave them in the apartment and I'll bring the puppy outside for the city walk and keep them safe. And my roommate is back home so I live by myself the puppy will have more space to play

Michelle is a thoughtful, reliable, and loving pet caregiver. When she takes care of my dog, I know that he'll be safe. She's taken him on walks and boarded him multiple times, and I highly recommend her for her communication and caring nature. She sends great pictures of him playing and resting. He always comes home happy and tired from all the fun he has with her. Michelle is knowledgeable about dog training, enrichment activities, and how to keep dogs safe around people and wildlife. It can be scary to leave your pet with a stranger, but with Michelle they'll be in great hands.

Cheyenne has been watching my Havanese since he was a Puppy over eight years ago! She grew up with dogs and it shows. She has a gentle demeanor and patience to deal with difficult canine personalities (and nervous people). Her care included walking, feeding, playing, outings, and overnight stays at our home and at her home. I would highly recommend and trust Cheyenne with my pet.

It was truly wonderful having Stephanie take care of my large hound. She walked, played, and brushed him with such care and attention that he always returned home happier than when he left. I highly recommend her to anyone in need of a caring and reliable pet sitter.

Pet parents in San Francisco love booking pet care with sitters on Rover. Booking in-home care for your pets is likely more affordable than you think—even in a city like San Francisco. Curious to learn more about how much it may cost to book a drop-in visit with a sitter on Rover? Check out our average pet sitting rates so you can get an idea before starting a conversation with a sitter near you in the San Francisco area.

Whether you’ll be gone for a day or a week, Rover has your back when it comes to giving your pets the care they need. Drop-in visits offer your pets the chance to stay home, in the environment that they like best. It frees you from burdening family or friends with the obligation to come by and give ‘em some love, and makes it so you never have to stress out your pets by taking them to a noisy kennel. In-home care is perfect for cats—your sitter will come to your home, scoop, feed, and play with your feline to keep those purrs coming, even when you’re away. Drop-in visits aren’t just for cats though, you can book a qualified sitter to watch all kinds of pets, from reptiles and fish to birds and bunnies—whatever kind of pet you have, there’s a sitter on Rover who can’t wait to care for them. You can of course book drop-in visits for your dog, too, especially if they’re the independent type. This will give you the peace of mind of knowing they got a potty break and some playtime while you’re away, without having to lock them in a cage at a kennel. San Francisco is a great city to find a drop-in sitter for your pet because it’s full of animal-friendly locales and and a community of pet sitters on Rover.

San Francisco is a booming city—the second most-densely populated in the U.S, in fact—but it isn’t just full of humans, it’s full of their beloved pets too. We love how pet-friendly this incredibly city by the bay is, and it’s the perfect place not only to own a pet, but to book a trusted sitter through Rover. The city is equally famous for miles of rolling hills as it is for classic cable cars to help visitors and natives alike navigate this fascinating city. San Franciscans enjoy miles of amazing off-leash dog parks and free-roaming beaches to let your canine companion blow off some steam while making new friends. No matter where you live in San Fran, from Parkside to Nob Hill, there’s a sitter listed on Rover right in your neighborhood. That’s because this city is packed full of animal lovers, so you’re bound to find a great match for you and your pet on pretty much every block.

Getting started on Rover is simple: type in your zip code, choose drop-in visits as your service, browse 100s of sitters near you, and begin a conversation with your pet’s perfect match.
