About: I've taken care of mostly small to medium size dogs since I was 11 years old. I have also fostered a dog for two months. I've pet sit for my friends in the LA area for years and I'm normally their go to person for dog sitting. I work from for my family business Monday and Fridays so I can help with home stay and pet sitting during long weekends. My work is flexible on Mondays and Fridays so I can also provide dog walking services during the day. I’m located mainly in the Aliso Viejo/Laguna Niguel Area. There are a couple dog friendly parks in my area as well. I prefer dogs with no bite histories or resource guarding. I also prefer dogs that are potty trained but I can be flexible with puppies in the process of potty training. Unfortunately I cannot care for dogs with medical issues (such as physical disabilities).
“Emma did a great job caring for our cat. She was loving and playful with her and we really enjoyed the daily updates and pictures. She also took care of our lizards and plants. She is great with cats and I highly recommend her😊”

“This is my second time using Daria and she is amazing! She always takes such good care of my cat and keeps my house in shape as well. I totally trust her and would recommend her to anyone!”

About: I have experience with pets(cat, dogs, mouses) from my childhood. In my childhood I read book how to train puppies and I have some knowledge. I think that pets makes people more kind, relax and healthy. I take care about my child and we are or at home or at park near our home or within our community most of the time. At park a lot of dogs are playing together, like at dog park. 5 min away we have dog park too.We are really available to take care about pets(walk, play,feed, care). We are living in big pet friendly community with green grass field which is good to walk with dogs. Our community goes in to the park. Our appartment is so comfortable. If it will be needed we can keep our dog separate from your dog or cat. Our dog is 2 years old. He is calm and delicate, well-being doggy. He is kind and friendly, likes to play. We will responsibly to take care about your cat or dog, because We are enjoining to do that. My son is gentle with cats and dogs. He is my little big helper.
About: I’ve had dogs all my life and have dog walked, house sat for dogs, and helped trained my sister’s puppy. I share a special bond with dogs! I currently am only working part-time, so I will be able to be very attentive with the dog. I can take for multiple walks a day, be active, and even help train more. I live in a condo at the moment with no yard, so I will mostly be taking them for walks or find ways to be active outside of the home. I can crate them in your home if needed, and won’t let them in furniture or beds.
About: I cared for a clients cat for over 6 years, and helped with his transition through thyroid and kidney failure, experienced in medicating cats. I have my own menagerie of 4 cats (don’t worry, there are other humans in the home for when I’m away), and foster kittens as well. I enjoy playing with cats and understand some cats also don’t like to play and can accommodate that as well. If you need expert cat care, I’m your gal! Dogs also considered- I walked a 100+ lb dog daily for 4 years (neighbors) and also provided overnight care for a 4 lb teacup chihuahua. I work at a school for 9 months and fill the remains of my days with gig work including pet sitting and house cleaning. I look forward to making your pet a part of my schedule I have 4 indoor adult cats and am an expert at keeping them from escaping- I will keep a close eye to make sure your pet doesn’t get out of that’s unwanted
“Amazing, amazing, amazing...total pro who cared for our kitties as if her very own. On schedule every day with daily updates and photos...I swear our pets didn't even miss us LOL. Highly recommend without hesitation!!!!”

About: I am a big animal lover! I currently take care of 2 dogs, horses, and chickens. I have been in the animal care industry for more than 20 years. Whether it is a short walk, pets or freshening up water bowls, I see each visit as a time to dote and enjoy the fur ball while their mom or dad is away! I am free and flexible for planned walks, weekend sitting, and drop-ins, as needed. I can take last-minute walks, feedings, or potty breaks with a 45 minute turn around during the week. I check my phone diligently. I walk my own dog once a day, take him on a 2.5-mile walk, freshen water bowl twice a day before each meal, followed by a deep brush through every night before bed. He works for his treats as he taking commands or when he shows that he is listening.
“Daly was incredible. My family and I were out of country for 2 weeks on vacation. We had never left our dog with anyone before and we were very nervous about it. Daly is very sweet and confident around us and our dog. Our dog was 1year and very high energy at times, but Daly was un-phased by the challenge. She has a lot of experience around animals and it shows. Being on complete opposite times zones was challenging, but Daly sent video, photos, updates and questions along the way to make sure we were informed about our dog everyday. It was absolutely perfect. I have no concerns about recommending her to friends and family and she will definitely be our dog’s go-to caregiver in the future!”

About: What sets me apart is the level of love, patience, and attentiveness I bring to every dog I care for. I cared for my poodle mix for 13 years, giving him a happy life full of walks, beach adventures, and unconditional love. Throughout his life, he experienced ongoing health challenges, which gave me valuable experience providing consistent and attentive care, including managing special diets, administering medications, and paying close attention to changes in his behavior and needs. When I went off to college and left my family dog at home, my care for dogs didn’t stop. I continued working with animals by becoming a dog sitter and walker for my college’s service puppies in training, and I also helped my sister care for various foster dogs. These experiences gave me the opportunity to work with multiple dogs at once, each with different personalities, energy levels, and needs, and strengthened my ability to stay attentive, organized, and calm in any situation. Beyond that, I have experience walking neighbors’ dogs and pet sitting for both puppies and senior dogs for friends and family. I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and comfort level, and I take pride in making sure each pet feels safe, loved, and cared for. When I moved back home a little over two years ago, I returned to caring for my family dog full time. He became my priority in his final years, and I made sure he had daily long walks, multiple trips to the beach each week, and constant companionship and comfort. I’m signing up for Rover because I want to continue sharing the love and dedication I had for my own dog with other pets and families. Caring for him gave me a strong sense of purpose, and I would love the opportunity to provide that same level of attention, companionship, and care to your furry family member. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I am currently employed part-time, where I primarily work events during the evenings. Outside of those commitments, I have a flexible schedule and am looking to add dog walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting to my existing daytime routine and days off. I already enjoy staying active through daily walks and spending time outdoors, and I would love the opportunity to include more dogs in those walks while providing them with exercise, companionship, and attentive care. My flexible availability allows me to give each pet the time, attention, and consistency they deserve. I believe safety and trust are the foundation of great pet care. When caring for a pet in a client’s home, I make it a priority to follow their established routine, respect their space, and provide the same level of attention and care I would want for my own dog. I take time to learn each pet’s personality, comfort level, feeding schedule, exercise needs, and any special instructions from their owner. My 13 years caring for my own poodle mix gave me experience with providing consistent, attentive care, including managing medications, special diets, and recognizing changes in behavior or health needs. I understand how important it is for pets to feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away. I will always prioritize safety by keeping a close eye on pets during walks and visits, maintaining a clean and calm environment, and providing updates so owners can feel confident their pets are in good hands.

“Leslie was great! Super communicative and sent so many photos of her visit. She truly helped us have ease of mind and we will definitely use her again in the future as she took great care of our girl Lola.”

“Our 15 yr old boy Dakota was so happy with Taylor visiting him 2xs a day! And we were very confident as we traveled for 8 days that our loyal friend was doing well! We received daily reports and even pictures of puppy. Taylor's love for animals and sweet demeanor are outstanding. We would recommend her to any pet owner who wants the best...for their best friends!!!”


“Lizette looked after my two cats while I was out of town for about a week and a half. She was extremely dependable and communicative. I would definitely recommend Lizette to anyone and would be thrilled to have her look after my cats again!”

About: I’ve cared for cats and various sizes of dogs nearly my whole life. I’ve even raised kittens from birth. As an animal lover, playing with, exercising, snuggling and generally looking after animals of all kinds is exciting for me. I have a flexible start and end time for work Monday through Friday. I’m typically available for longer periods of time on the weekends, including overnight sitting. I’m usually available after 5pm, Monday - Friday. If early morning or early evening drop-in visits or a walk is needed, please send me a message so we can work out any details. Sitting for your pet in your home allows me hangout with and care for them while their comfort levels are maintained. We’ll also have access to all their favorite toys and treats!
About: I’ve had pets my entire life and genuinely can’t remember a home without animals. I’ve cared for cats and dogs of all sizes. I grew up with a spunky Jack Russell Terrier who my family had for 20 years, so I’m very familiar with high-energy breeds, senior pets, and everything in between. I’m patient, comfortable with dogs that may be nervous or challenging, and always move at the pet’s pace. I regularly cat sit, am confident administering medication, and have experience with puppies, adults, and senior animals. While I don’t currently have pets of my own, it allows me to fully focus on the pets I’m caring for and make sure they feel comfortable, relaxed, and right at home. I work from home full time, which allows me to be present, attentive, and flexible with pets who need companionship during the day. Your pet will never be an afterthought! Your pet’s comfort and safety are always my top priorities. I take time to understand each animal’s routine, personality, and boundaries so they feel secure and respected. I’m calm, observant, and patient, especially with anxious or high-energy pets. I follow instructions carefully, keep environments clean and hazard-free, and provide regular updates so you can feel confident your pet is in loving, capable hands whether I’m in your home or caring for them elsewhere.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Aliso Viejo
DanaRene is amazing! I've booked her a few times and she's lovely with the cats. Even my shyest one comes out to see her and play. Everything is spotless when I get back. She's really communicative, responsive, on time, and easy to work with. I highly recommend her.
Isabel took care of our two cats for two weeks while we were away. She did a wonderful job. Both of our cats loved her, and they were happy and relaxed when we came home. She was reliable and caring, and we never had to worry while we were gone. We highly recommend Isabel and will book her again!
Radhika is the best in her job and it’s not a surprise she has this many good reviews! She’s great at reading animals and adjusting her methods accordingly. She’s been the best at handling my feisty cat and inspires me a lot. I couldn’t have been more thankful for everything she has done!

Yeji did daily check-ins for my 15 years old cat while I was out of the country for two weeks. Everything went really well, she communicated well and was able to accommodate additional requests with grace. I highly recommend her and she will be my number one choice in the future when available.

Alison was wonderful with our two dogs while we were away at my daughters wedding. She sent photo updates and cute notes, which gave us total peace of mind. Our pups were happy, calm, and well-cared for when we got back. We will definitely book with her again!

Madison was great. Her communication was excellent and She gave Rocky lots of love , fed him and took him outside for his business. I was very impressed that she asked us if we wanted to do a meet and greet prior to having her come over. I will def use Madison again.

Shannon was absolutely amazing with our dog, Sky! From the beginning, she made us feel completely comfortable and confident that Sky was in great hands. She communicated with us every day, sent plenty of photos and updates, and really gave us peace of mind while we were away. It was clear that Shannon genuinely cared about Sky and treated him like she was her own. Being able to enjoy our time away without worrying about how Sky was doing meant so much to us. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would absolutely trust Shannon to watch Sky again. Highly recommend her!

Daley is an amazing dog walker and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for services in or around South Orange County. She is very attentive, punctual, and communicative! She gave me updates on how my pup was doing on her walks and gave recommendations for care. She is very knowledgeable from her experience at a vet! 10/10!
Sofiya did an amazing job with our kitties. They are shy and they loved her. Sofiya sent daily updates and videos and when we returned home everything was perfect. My cat that hides from strangers heard her voice and ran to the door to see her. I will definitely have Sofiya as our primary pet sitter. I highly recommend Sofiya. Diana

I’m very happy to have found Katelyn for occasional check ins. She is very friendly, reliable and punctual. She did everything exactly how I explained. Her experience as an RVT really gave us peace of mind since we have a diabetic dog thats needs insulin injections and medication. I definitely recommend her; especially if you have dogs with special needs.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit .

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
