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!

Thank you so much Yixin for accepting a last minute booking request to watch Luna. While returning from our trip we were stranded in LAX because of the storm in SFO. I was so stressed that Luna would be home without any walks or company. I immediately bombarded Yixin with requests and she was so understanding and accommodating to our needs. I cannot thank her enough for the reassurance she provided to me during such a difficult time.

Cheyenne is a natural-born dog-lover. She grew up with parents who always had dogs, and who's mom was a professional dog trainer. She carried this love and passion along and truly connects with animals on another level. She would watch my pug for me and when he came home from visiting her, I always felt like he was a better pooch, well-mannered and disciplined to say the least :) Trustworthy and well qualified for the position!

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.

Kelly is an incredibly sweet person. Our dog absolutely loves her! He gets super excited when we mention her name. Kelly walked our dog for months and we never had any complaints. She was always reliable, punctual and prompt with her communication. Couldn’t recommend her enough.

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.

Vera gives tremendous care and attention to her furry friends. I was with her when she cared for a doodle. She went on an extensive walk along a Potrero Hill and gave the doggo the right amount of exercise. She later took the doodle out again to a dog park and always seemed to understand what was needed to be done based on the doodle's behaviors. I have known Vera for several years and know that she is a deeply caring human being. I highly recommend her to take care of your dogs!

Really please with all of Janki’s visits! She was really sweet and knew how to interact with my kitty. Mhysa can be a bit timid at first, but she got lots of playtime and attention :) Janki was also very responsive through messages as well. Mhysa somehow knocked out both of the cords to her feeder and water fountain. Even though Janki was scheduled to do her visit later in the day that day, she was able to come by within a short timeframe notice to plug them back in and do the visit earlier, which I really appreciated.

Jeremy has consistently been wonderful taking care of my cat, Mia! He is super responsive when I'm not around, sends me photos of her along the way, and is very detailed in understanding her and bonding with her. I'd highly recommend Jeremy to take care of anyone's pet.

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.
