“I felt very comfortable leaving Kona with Alex. He was well cared for and Alex took the time to communicate with me which means a lot! Kona was very calm and happy when we returned.”


“Gabriella stayed with our two dogs for 8 days while we were out of the country. We felt very comfortable having her there with them and she sent us updates everyday. One of our dogs is hairless and requires a bit more work, especially going outside since he needs clothes and boots in the winter. We came back to happy and healthy pups. Thanks Gabriella!”


“I cannot recommend Lillian enough! She was absolutely wonderful to our 2 dogs and 3 cats for housesitting. So responsive and kind, the peace of mind while away was an incredible comfort.”


“Ally did a great job! Tucker loves her and didn’t want her to go. Thank you”


About: I grew up on a farm in Reseda, CA with as many as 9 dogs at 1 time and also goats, bunnies, guinea pigs, hamsters. I had 3 dogs as an adult but they have all since passed away at the ages of 16, 16 and 17 so yes I take very good of my animals. I currently have 2 cats, Sydnee and Maycee who are 1.5. I hope to get another dog someday but until then, I hope to take care of and love your dogs like they are my own. I have a flexible schedule and I am available during the day for walks/feeding and or evenings/weekends for vacation pet sitting on pretty short notice. I can provide loving care of your fur babies in your home and treat them like my own. You can always trust that they are in good hands.

“Olivia was everything we could ask for in a sitter. She watched our 8 month old Aussie and kitty for a weekend and at no point did I worry about how things were going. She is very knowledgeable about Aussies as she has them herself, which added another layer of comfort for me. She also shoveled our driveway for us, as she had been there during a major snowstorm. Her willingness to help out made our arrival back home so easy. We were welcomed with the sweetest note she had written us about the weekend as well. We will DEFINITELY be hiring her for our future sitting needs!♥️”


“Angel really and truly is an Angel! She was able to accept my 4-night booking on fairly short notice and was a great communicator both before and during her stay with my 2 dogs. I could tell right away I was leaving my boys in good hands, which is exactly how you want to feel when you have to be away from home. Angel sent great daily updates, with photos and videos - and I even came home to a cleaner. house!”

“This was my first experience using the Rover app. I was a bit hesitant because I’ve never allowed someone in my home overnight without me before. Jessica came and met my animals the day before her stay. My dog who is extremely anxious quickly warmed up to her, and it was clear that it would be a good fit. She was very responsive, and she frequently sent me pictures and updates on how they were doing. If the opportunity arose, I would reach out to her again. I would recommend her without hesitation.”

About: Hi my name is Averi, I have been around animals my entire life but have the most experience with dogs. I do have a charcoal lab of my own who is now a certified service animal that travels around to nursing homes and comforts those in need of puppy love. I recently got back from traveling abroad and am looking for a side job to back up my part time job! I have a 11 month lab of my own so she gets 3 meals a day, plus plenty of exercise to tire her out at night. I make sure to take her on at least one big hike a week to make sure she is getting that experience, and am always taking her into public for socialization I treat others animals as if they were my own, I take pride that I treat animals very well and am always willing to do anything to make sure the owners is as comfortable as can be. I believe that in order to make an animal act right they need to feel comfortable and safe, which requires patience and a soft hand.

“Alyssa stayed at our home to watch our 12 year old German Shephered and 9 month old Belgian Malinois. We were very nervous about our Belgian as it would be the first time leaving her. Alyssa came twice to meet us and go over everything prior to the watch date. She communicated with us often and sent photos. We came home to our house in order and both of our doggies well loved. Highly recommend!!!”
