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).
“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!”
“So grateful for Radhika. We have never left our pets at home when we have gone on vacation. We knew our 14 year old dog would be more comfortable at home and was so grateful that Rad was able to keep us updated during every visit and helped us out when our dog had a couple accidents in the house. She also was great with our kitty. Would definitely recommend Rad and will definitely book her again!”
“Kenya has been great working to get to know my stranger shy chihuahua. My dog is a handful and takes a while to warm up. She's been patient and taking the time to get to know her so she can do overnight in the future”
About: I've had animals in my life ever since I was 7. From birds to dogs to cats. I love animals and love spending time with them. I'm currently working part time in the afternoons during the weekends. My availability for walks is Monday- Thursday at any time. I am available to watch your animal in either your home or mine :) I currently have 2 cats so as long as your pet is cat friendly, my cats are :) I am able to travel to your home as well and watch your pet if that suits more in your interest.
“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 used to take care of stray cats and dogs before moving to the U.S. it was a traumatizing but at the same time rewarding experience. I should say that I am considered a beginner to private pet sitting but I love animals and therefore believe that I have the right foundation to learn and grow fast. I’m currently starting at a full time Saturday through Tuesday esthetician program and I’ll only be able to offer services everyday between 5:30 and 10:30 pm. On Sundays and Mondays I’ll be available all day. I don’t offer pet care at my own place, but for any session outside or at a client’s place I’ll probably try to communicate with the pet parent about their pet’s needs, preferences, and potentially high risk behaviors. I’d like my attitude to lean towards customizing the service routine for each pet to keep the experience safe and satisfying for them and the others.
“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.”

“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 grew up with dogs and spent 10+ years caring for my own rescue dog, Jack. I spent 5+ years volunteering at an animal shelter, fostering dogs, and taking shelter dogs running. I have completed dog training courses for all of those activities. I understand just how much trust it takes to put your dog in someone else’s care. I’m attentive, patient and affectionate, and I treat every dog as an individual with their own personality, routines and needs. I have extensive experience with senior dogs and the additional care they may require, including administering medications, preparing special meals, assisting with mobility, adapting walks and activities, and following detailed care routines. I’m also very observant of changes in behavior, appetite, energy and comfort. I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs—whether that means a good walk, playtime, exploring outside, or simply keeping them company at home. I’m reliable and responsible, and I’ll follow your instructions carefully so your dog can stay as close as possible to their normal routine while you’re away. My apartment is large, spacious, and quiet. I am in the first floor so it is accessible for senior dogs. I have a gated patio which adds security to the front area. My complex is quiet and has walking paths and grassy areas, with very few dog owners - and we keep our dogs separate and away from each other. Your dog will be safe and secure with me. I work remotely and have a flexible schedule, so I’m able to spend plenty of time with the pets in my care. I can easily accommodate regular walks, feeding schedules, medications, playtime and companionship throughout the day. I’m active and enjoy walking, but I’m equally happy to adjust my routine for a senior dog or a pet who prefers a quieter day at home. I’ll do my best to maintain your pet’s normal schedule so they feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. I take caring for someone else’s pet and home seriously. I’ll follow your instructions closely, including feeding, walks, medications, household rules and any special routines your pet is accustomed to. I’m attentive to changes in behavior, appetite, mobility or comfort and will communicate with you if anything seems unusual. I’m also respectful of your home and will keep it clean, secure and cared for while you’re away. I’m happy to provide regular photos and updates so you can relax knowing your pet is safe, comfortable and getting plenty of attention.

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.

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

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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .

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 Meet & Greet .
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy , 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.
