“Katrina has been so wonderful to us. Ben loves having her company & we love the peace of mind of having her home with him when we're away. As usual, she's very reliable, friendly, easy to communicate with, and we'll continue to use her services.”
About: Hello, my name is Maira and I’m a life long animal lover. I’ve had all kinds of pets and cared for everything from turtles to fish, hamsters and birds, a rabbit, cats and dogs. Although I love all animals, Dogs are where my heart melts! I’ve taken care of friend’s dogs as well as helped friends and family basic train their small and large breed dogs. I have 10+ years of experience with dogs of all sizes and ages including my 90lb high energy Doberman which taught me a lot. If you remember one thing from my page I hope it’s this; I will take care of your furry babies as if they were my own. Monday through Friday I am available 6:30am - 6:30pm to care for your furry family. Saturdays and Sundays I am available 7:00am -7:00pm. If you need me outside of this time frame please let me know. During a drop in visit, I let your fur child out for a potty break and ensure they have plenty of water, food, and treats (if you okay the treats before hand) then hang out, play, and love on them for the remainder of the 30mins. During a walk booking, I will pick up your dog for a walk around the neighborhood. Which can be part structural and part sniffing to mentally stimulate and not just physically work out. The goal is a happy healthy pupper (and yes a 10 y/o is still a pupper) you will receive photos of our adventures and a message informing you how your baby’s walk went. Rain or Shine! Your Dog’s safety is my top priority. If it’s too hot or it is raining we will alter our walks with either a rain jacket or walking indoors at a near by pet friendly store. I am prepared with towels, plenty of water and a pet first aid kit should we ever need anything.
“Ashley was incredible again! Perfect amount of updates. She’s a pro. I feel 100% sure our baby’s being well taken care of when we’re gone! She gives us such peace of mind on our vacations!”
“Gabby did an amazing job dog sitting for our little fur baby Romeo. This was the first time we used Rover and I contacted Gabby based on her location and profile. Turned out to be the best decision I could’ve made for me and my wife. We were traveling with a pooch to catch some games in Anaheim and Gabby was available to take care of our little guy Saturday and Sunday. Gabby was very attentive, she sent pictures and videos and really made the experience special and worthwhile. If you need the services and you’re in Orange, California, try to book Gabby you won’t be disappointed.”
“Lena is amazing. Kind, responsible, responsive, exact, caring, gentle, honest, capable, safe…all the characteristics you need and want in a furbaby sitter. She stayed in my home with my furchild, Summer, sent pictures and videos often, followed my detailed, and particular, directions exactly, and most importantly, Summer loves her!! Lena made my time away from Summer bearable. Will request Lena again soon, and without reservation.”
“Holly was an amazing dog sitter. She constantly kept me updated on the status of my puppies as I enjoyed the day with my family in Disneyland. My puppies are only four months old, too young to be with other dogs and be outside. Holly watched them in our hotel suite because of that. I live in Northern California and it was nice to have someone who cared for my puppies like I would. I highly recommend hiring Holly and I will definitely retain her services in the future.”
“Stephanie was absolutely wonderful! She stayed in our home and took such great care of our dog Mookie and our house. From the moment we met her, we felt completely comfortable and knew Mookie was in good hands. She was responsible, communicative, respectful and sent lots of updates and photos. We would absolutely trust Stephanie with our home and dog again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter.”
“Emma is such a wonderful person you can put your trust to care of your furry baby. She constantly sent me updates and pictures of mi little monster. And she took my Freyja for many walkies. Freyja absolutely loved Emma!”
“Probably the best sitter we’ve had so far. Went above and beyond on everything. Provided plenty of updates and did as much as possible to make sure our dogs were happy and comfortable.”

Here's what I offer: 🐶Happy & Healthy: Daily walks, playtime, and plenty of mental stimulation to keep your dog's tail wagging. 📋Regular Routines: Sticking to their feeding schedule and making sure they always have fresh water. 🫡Supportive Care: Whether they need medication, a quick brush, or just some extra snuggles, I've got them covered. 🙂↕️Positive Reinforcement: Continuing any training you've been working on with basic commands. 🥽Safety First: Always keeping a close eye on your dog to ensure they're safe and comfortable. 💕Lots of Love: Providing comfort and companionship to help them feel at ease. 📸Stay Connected: Sending you photo updates and check-ins so you never have to worry.

Have lots of free time during the day through the weekdays and days and nights during weekends. Also love to stop by and check that they are ok and give them some attention and company as needed. Im very relax with request and special treatments. I have taken care of my dogs through sickness and many life transitions. I’m very playful and like to keep their minds occupied but also show them the care and affection that they receive from their people. I know how security and comfort is the main priority for the pups and the family.
About: The first pay I earned as a kid was doing drop-in visits for a neighbor’s dogs, feeding and playing and doing check-ins with them throughout the day as a middle schooler. I grew up living with and taking care of my family dogs, and I am now the proud father of a darling golden retriever, Ginger, and a very special, cuddly diluted tortoise shell house cat, Freya. I have raised a puppy for Guide Dogs of America, taking care of and training basic commands from 8 weeks to a 18 months old, and have helped my wife foster many kittens for adoption with various outfits. I’ve watched neighbor’s dogs while they were out of town, done drop-in feedings for family member’s cats (5, each with their own type of food and feeding order!), and pet sat for friends during extended vacations. A pet is a part of our hearts, and I treat every pet I walk, watch, and play with like it is a part of mine. Gentle, nurturing, with patience and kindness. I am currently a freelance creative worker from home, so my schedule is very flexible and open for daytime drop-ins, dog walking, pet feeding, and play time! I am available for morning, afternoon, and evening visits with your animals and can accommodate different windows for busy and traveling pet parents alike. I have experience walking both adult dogs and puppies, as well as different dog sizes. Growing up, my family dogs were mostly small sized breeds like Shih Tzus, but as an adult I currently have a golden retriever as part of the family, so I am comfortable working with both small and larger sized dogs. I also have a cat that is very strictly only an indoor kitty, so I am extremely cognizant of door and house security when dealing with inside-only animals.
“Kirsten is simply fabulous! She sat with our senior shih tzu who needs special attention, meds twice a day, hand feeding, the whole ridiculous spoiled pup scenario. She was so sweet and kind, enthusiastic and organized like a boss! We were so impressed with her professional approach and preparation. We would absolutely trust Kirsten with our baby any time!”
“On a scale of 1 to 10, Tommy is an 11! He took such careful care of our babies while we were in town for a family trip. He paid attention to each of our pup’s individual needs and just was so mindful about everything! We will DEFINITELY work with him again and we HIGHLY recommend him!”
“Wonderful pet care! Darlene is as good with the owners as she is with their fur-babies. The care provided left us feeling confident that our little doggos were in good hands. We really appreciate you, Darlene and hope we can have you back to look after the boys again in the future! Thank you!”
About: I love taking care of dogs! I have two small toy poodles in my home and they are great with other dogs. I love going for walks, snuggling, and playing. I have had dogs my entire life from puppies to seniors, I love them all! I’d be so grateful if you entrusted me with your furry best friend. I work from home, so I am available for your pup 24/7. I have a large fenced backyard that is great for sniffing and lounging. My neighborhood is very safe and great for walks. I have a fenced yard and can do whatever is needed to care for your pup! I can also take as many walks as needed throughout the day.
About: Hi! My name is Summer, and I'm originally from Colorado and am a student at Chapman University. Back home, I have two Aussie Doodles that I would walk every day. Since my Freshman year of high school, I have taken care of several dogs and cats in my neighborhood. Whether it was routine walks, letting them out if my neighbor had a busy day, watching them overnight, or just giving them some love and playtime, I was always there. I would love to do the same for my new neighbors here in California. While I miss my pets, I can't wait to love yours! I'm currently a student at Chapman University and have a lighter class load this semester, which allows me to devote more time to pet sitting and walking. On Monday, I have a class from 4:00pm-6:50pm; on Tuesday and Thursday, classes from 11:30am-5:15pm; on Wednesday, a class from 1:00pm-3:50pm; and no class on Fridays. As long as I have notice, I can always take care of pets on the weekends as well! I have a car, so I can easily go back and forth from school to take care of your animal and stay with them, not only to let them out and feed them, but also to give them loads of love and playtime. Before entering or staying at a client's home, I discuss personal house rules and boundaries so we are always on the same page. I also provide several photos of the animals while I'm with them, and location updates while walking!

“Yerim went above and beyond and even brushed my cats because one of them puked. I came home to happy and calm kitties.. thanks for taking such good care of them :)”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Anaheim
Stephanie was great! She stayed at our house with the dogs for a few days and was really attentive and caring. She sent photos while we were away, and it was clear the dogs really liked her. She also took great care of our home, and everything was spotless when we got back. Would definitely have her stay with them again!
Lucy was great with Phoebe and Diesel! She was reliable, caring, and made me feel completely comfortable leaving them with her. Both of them were happy and well taken care of when I got back. I would definitely recommend Lucy and would happily have her watch them again!
Tritia is just wonderful! She's very warm, friendly, communicative, and clearly a pet lover. My dogs have never been so cared for. She stayed the night with my pups and they were perfectly happy; I don't think they missed me at all. I'll be booking with her in the future!
We went out of state for 5 days and had never left our cat so I was wanting someone at the house with her and so the house would not be vacant - We were very happy with Kelsey! She came over to meet with us first and we really liked her. She took good care of our cat, fish and even the outside animals / birds as I requested which meant a lot to me (not a typical request but she was great about it!) We loved how she asked questions when she had any via text. She also sent us a lot of pictures which was great! We recommend Kelsey!
Stephanie was absolutely wonderful! She stayed in our home and took such great care of our dog Mookie and our house. From the moment we met her, we felt completely comfortable and knew Mookie was in good hands. She was responsible, communicative, respectful and sent lots of updates and photos. We would absolutely trust Stephanie with our home and dog again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter.

We were very happy with Dahlia. We could tell from her updates, photos, and videos how much she really loved our dog. Dahlia played all of Shadow's favorite games, kept to her schedule, and cuddled with her. I think Shadow might actually be happy the next time our family leaves for a vacation because she enjoyed Dahlia so much!
Emylie is absolutely wonderful! Very caring with my little baby. She frequently sent me pictures of Freyja and the status of her wellbeing. If you want a lovely human to care for your furry family member, Emylie is your girl. Thank you so much, Emylie for making Freyja feel safe and happy while I was gone. 🙏🏽
Ashley was wonderful in taking care of my 2 mini dachshunds. She communicated frequently with texts and photos of my dogs and was very respectful in my home. My request was super short notice too with only 3 hours before I had to leave town. She saved me in a pinch and I would love to have her back!! Thank you again :)

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Anaheim walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Anaheim maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
<b>Tip:</b> Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Anaheim choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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.
