1. Kali P.
“I used Rover for the first time, as all our regulars were unavailable over spring break. I was a bit nervous and had heard mixed reviews, but KALI was AMAZING!! I’d use her again and again. It was heartwarming to watch little miss P warm up to her after the first few days. She followed all instructions and took care of my home like her own. She communicates well and consistently checks in. Would 10/10 recommend and can’t wait to use her again. Thank you Kali!”
2. Tania C.
“Tania was so nice, trustworthy and on time. She communicates great. She sent updates and pictures while we were gone. She’s a very nice person and I definitely will be using her again.”
3. Claire G.
“Claire's energy and the love she has for animals is absolutely incredible! No matter how demanding the care list is, her attention to detail and eagerness helps ease the anxiety of a long trip away from our babies! She'll be there as many times as you need to take care of everything and always spends extra time just giving everyone love! Wouldn't use anyone else!”
4. Abigail N.

11. Anna W.
About: I have always had a love for animals, but especially dogs. I’ve always had many dogs growing up that i cared for. I have also been trusted with many friends, neighbors, and strangers dogs. Pet care is 24/7 for me considering I have 2 personal dogs. I work from home currently, so I am able to spend majority of my time with and around dogs. I will always make sure my client’s dogs needs are met. I live on many acres of land with ponds and plenty of space to run

13. Karen B.
“Karen did a awesome job caring for our 4 fur babies and communicating with us! Loved getting updates, pictures, and videos everyday from her. She even won over our Chihuahua who is very picky on who he likes! Will definitely be using her again!”
14. Marissa A.
“We have used Marissa a few times and she has been phenomenal. She is great with communication, treats our pups well and sends us pictures throughout!”
15. Mary F.
“Mary was wonderful watching our babies! She sent photos everyday, respected our home, and in general went above and beyond our expectations. We’ll certainly be using her again in the future.”
16. Jill & Robert B.
“My dogs are in love with Jill. Even when the power went out at the house, she found a way to get it fixed. 5 stars.”
17. Chris N.
“My little Mia Pia loves when Chris comes to see her. She's convinced he's just a fan of hers, but I always feel so less guilty leaving her behind on those trips she just cannot accompany me on, if I know Chris will be with her. He doesn't mind my obsessive need to constantly check in on her, or if he does he never makes me feel bad. She does have a special diet and some health issues, but Chris has always given my Mia Pia the same love and care as I do, or pretty close. Mia and I give him 5 paws up!”
18. Jaylen P.
About: Since I was a child, I've looked after dogs of various breeds. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to take care of their pets by feeding, walking, and bathing them. I am currently free everyday until 3pm to care for your pups. If you need overnight care we can arrange that as well I do not mind. I have a fenced yard with 2 pups that I care for deeply. They are crated at night indoors to keep them safe and warm.
19. Caitlyn G.
About: I’ve grown up around dogs my whole entire life, so I’m used to caring for them. 2 years ago I got my dog when she was 7 weeks old, and have raised her ever since. Also, I’m the first to call when anyone needs a dog sitter with friends and family because they call me the “dog whisperer”!! I’m currently working part time in the outlet mall in San Marcos, but I have my schedule 2 weeks in advance, so I will know exactly when I’ll be able to be with the dogs all day! I do live in an apartment complex, but we do have a caged dog park and there’s a lot of grass surrounding the buildings! There’s also a safe pathway around the complexes for them to be walked.
20. Cecilia C.
About: I have taken care of all types of animals since I was 13 years old. I’ve always been nominated as the “dog whisperer” i’ve trained, bathed, and house sat anywhere I am! I currently work part time, so I have lots of time to play with your pups! Any day of the week including weekends are easy to fit into my schedule! I live on a ranch (your pup must be friendly) or I am happy to come to your home to keep your pup stress free!
