“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!”
“Emma always takes such good care of our cat while we are away. She’s a great communicator, takes lots of photos, and is consistent. Thanks again for taking good care of our cat while we are away!”
“Rachel was amazing with our dog!!! We were nervous using rover for our first time but Rachel made it seamless. You can tell that she is great with animals. She sent updates and pictures each time and was very communicative. Highly recommended trusting her with your pets, will be most definitely rebooking her services!”
About: I’m here to provide loving, reliable care for your furry family members! As someone who genuinely enjoys spending time with dogs, I understand the trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s hands. Whether it’s a long walk, playtime, or just keeping them company, I’ll make sure your pup feels safe, happy, and loved. I pay close attention to their needs and routines, so they’ll feel right at home—even when you’re away. I’m excited to meet you and your dog and help make their time apart from you as stress-free as possible! I work part-time, allowing ample time for dedicated attention to furry friends. On weekdays, I maintain a flexible schedule, ensuring frequent walks, playtime, and feeding sessions for my canine companions. Come weekends, from Friday through Sunday, my focus shifts entirely to pet care, providing a welcoming environment for onboarding new furry friends, complete with engaging activities, cozy accommodations, and plenty of affectionate interactions. I prioritize creating a safe, comfortable, and engaging environment for furry companions. In my home, dogs have access to a dedicated dog park and explore our vibrant, dog-friendly neighborhood, ensuring ample opportunities for exercise, socialization, and enrichment.
About: During my senior year of high school I started volunteering at my local county animal shelter. Over the summer, I was working with dogs 8 hours a week in addition to my self managed swim lesson business and swim team practices. I also own and have fostered senior dogs! As much as I love to play with energetic young dogs, seniors are just as great ;) Fish are another specialty of mine! I have been keeping fish since I was six so if you have pet fish they are in good hands :) I am currently a college student and I am on my college swim team. My schedule is flexible and I have a reliable car. I am happy to stay overnight in clients homes. Before I moved to college my dogs had access to a large fenced yard and lived with us in the home. They were taken out on daily walks. Additionally, I have a beagle at home so I am very good at keeping food out of reach. At the animal shelter I volunteered at I would use positive reinforcement with the dogs to help train them.
“It was my first time using Rover and Caroline was absolutely fantastic! She made me feel incredibly comfortable and the cats loved her. Very responsive, respectful of my cats and took the highest level of care with their routine.”
“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.”
“I can’t say enough positive things about Kenya. She always comes when she says she will and goes above and beyond with our fur babies. Our pets actually like her more than us now. She is very trustworthy- which is hard to find these days.....I feel like I won the pet helper lottery with Kenya. If you are looking for the best, look no further.”
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).
About: I have been caring for both dogs and cats since I was around 10 years old. I have experience with pets of different sizes, ages, and personalities. Friends, neighbors, and family members have trusted me to walk dogs, feed pets, clean litter boxes, give basic medications, and provide companionship while they are away. I am patient, attentive, and detail-oriented, and I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I treat every pet as if they were my own. I currently have a part time job, which allows me to spend plenty of time caring for pets. I am available on weekdays morning before 10:30am and weekends for drop-ins, walks, and sitting. I make sure pets receive consistent attention, playtime, feeding, and companionship throughout the day. I always prioritize safety and follow each pet owner’s instructions carefully. In my home or a client’s home, I maintain a clean, calm, and secure environment. I monitor pets closely, keep doors and windows secure, and ensure food, litter boxes, and supplies are properly managed. I treat every dog and cat with patience, respect, and care.
“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: I have had animals since I was eight. I have compassion and patience. I enjoy the animals company and taking care of all their needs I have an open schedule and will accomadate all the animals needs and the pet parents wants for their animals. My goal is to meet all needs I will help pet feel relaxed, calm and not sad while the owner is away. I will play with them and try to make it like a vacation for them.
About: Hi! I'm Jon, I'm in my early 40s, and I live with my partner in a condo in Aliso Viejo, CA. (I would be the sole service provider) Until recently, my #1 hobby was spending time with my dog, Mae. I loved taking her out on nature trails and all kinds of adventures (in 2024, I even took Mae on a family road trip all the way up to Seattle and back!). After having her for 9 years in our home, I sadly lost my sweet girl in September 2025; she was about 13 years old and unfortunately had developed several unforeseen medical issues. There were a lot of long days and nights of administering medications and emergency vet visits until I made the hard decision to have her pass in comfort at home. I'm still healing from the loss: since I worked from home, Mae was my shadow all day, every day. I have used Rover for many years, but I'm easing into the other side of being a service provider. I'm not ready to get a new dog just yet, but I have a lot of love to give and I'm ready to care for your fur baby on a part-time basis. I'm currently job hunting, so my availability is close to 100% at the moment: I can sit in your home, do drop-in visits, or have your dog(s) stay with me. My condo is completely safe for dogs, my neighborhood is quiet and safe, and there are some great walking routes as well as a dog park nearby. I look forward to hearing from you! I'm currently job hunting, but have been working remotely for the past 13 years. Whatever new job I land will either be Remote or Hybrid. Weekdays are best, though I can occasionally care for your dog(s) on weekends as well. With my own dog Mae, I was feeding her twice a day, taking her on 5-6 small walks a day, and making sure her brain was stimulated throughout my work day. In my home: I live in a two-story condo with a loft. Most of the square footage is on the second floor, with a 13-step staircase from the ground floor. For older dogs or those with any hip or joint issues, I have no problem carrying them up or down the stairs. The majority of the main floor has either carpet or large, thick area rugs; the rest of the flooring is wood laminate. I have no problem letting dogs up on furniture or the bed as long as they're fairly clean (especially paws). Your dog will have full access to fresh, cold, filtered water as well as fans/air conditioning, toys and brain enrichment puzzles. I will follow your instructions on what, if any, treats they are allowed to have (and how many). In your home: you make the rules and I will follow them to the letter! I will treat your home and personal property with respect. If I have a question (and I will probably think of lots of them), I will ask you instead of assuming what the answer is. I don't smoke, I don't do drugs, I have my own car, and I'd love nothing more than to stay home with your dog(s) all day.
About: Growing up with dogs, I have a genuine love for animals. My main job offers flexible hours and the ability to work from home, giving me ample time to watch and care for your pet. I provide undivided attention to ensure your pet's happiness and well-being. I work from home and live alone which gives me a chance to be able to spend time with cats and dogs at the same time. I'll watch over your pet and play with it as if it's my own. they'll be staying in my apartment with me right there at all times. we can go on short walks every few hours.

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.

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!
Parnian was absolutely amazing with Leyli! From the second Leyli saw her, she immediately loved her and felt comfortable around her, which made me feel so much better about being away. Parnian took such great care of her and gave her lots of attention, playtime, cuddles, and love. She was very caring, responsible, and kept me updated with photos and videos, which I really appreciated. It was clear that Leyli was happy and comfortable with her the entire time. I’m so grateful to have found someone I can trust with Leyli, and I would absolutely book with Parnian again. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a kind and trustworthy cat sitter! ❤️🐱
I completely trust Radhika with my cats and feel in peace when she watches them. She is very good with them, even with the territorial, feisty one. She follows all the instructions and goes above and beyond every time. I appreciate her a lot and cannot recommend her enough!
We had a wonderful experience with Po! She took great care of our two bulldogs while we were away. She was courteous, reliable, and communicative, keeping us updated with messages and photos throughout our trip. She followed all of our instructions, stayed on schedule, and, most importantly, our dogs absolutely loved her. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were in such caring hands. We wouldn’t hesitate to book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, dependable sitter.
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

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Aliso Viejo stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Aliso Viejo. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
