About: Animals have always been my happy place. From as far back as I can remember, I’ve had the privilege of caring for both cats and dogs, developing a deep bond and understanding of their unique personalities. Having spent years with furry friends, I've learned that every pet has its own quirks and needs, but all of them share one thing in common: a desire for love, attention, and connection. What sets me apart as a pet sitter is my genuine passion and hands-on experience. I'm not just someone who watches pets — I actively engage with them, whether it’s a playful game of fetch, a peaceful cuddle session, or a long walk to explore the world around us. I believe in creating an environment where pets feel safe, loved, and entertained. I’ve never met an animal that didn’t enjoy quality time with their human, and I take pride in giving them the attention they deserve. Whether it’s providing mental stimulation with toys, helping pets burn off energy with exercise, or simply offering companionship, my goal is always to ensure the well-being and happiness of each pet in my care. Their needs come first, and I make sure to listen to both the animals and their owners to create a routine that works for everyone. I’m more than just a pet sitter — I’m a true pet lover. With years of experience and an intuitive understanding of animal behavior, you can trust me to provide your pet with the best care possible. After all, every pet deserves to feel like they’re part of the family. Currently, my daily schedule revolves around taking care of my mom and my own animals, so having a flexible job is crucial. Luckily, pet sitting is the perfect fit for this chapter in my life, allowing me to combine my love for animals with my responsibilities at home I live in a peaceful, pet-friendly community, where I have access to quiet walks and a safe outdoor space. Whether it’s a leisurely stroll around the neighborhood or a quick potty break, I ensure your pet gets the fresh air and exercise they need at their own pace. Inside the house, I’ve designed the space to be a cozy retreat for pets. I have a large, comfortable dog carrier for pets who need a quiet space to rest, as well as plenty of soft bedding and safe spots for them to relax and feel secure. I believe in building trust with each animal, which is why I ensure they have access to everything they might need, at any time — from fresh water in every room of my home to ample opportunities for play and attention.
“We have three dogs and a bunny. Carly is great. She stayed with my babies over the weekend. She took the big boys on runs, cuddled with with all the pups and even played with the rabbit. My dogs were so happy when I got home. It is so comforting knowing my dogs were so well taken care of while away.”
“We hired Lauren to watch our three pups in our home. One of our dogs is a senior with advanced Cushing's Disease and is diabetic. It's been so long since we were able to get away and enjoy ourselves for an extended period of time because of Baxter's medical issues. We needed someone to come and stay in our home and have the knowledge and ability to respond to his medical needs as well as meet the needs of our other two pups. Lauren did all of that for us. She's a professional through and through, wonderful personality and incredibly flexible with us. It's such a relief to know our pets are in her hands so we can enjoy our time away. We feel so lucky to have found her! She's the best!”
About: I have decades of experience caring for all kinds of pets, both my own and for friends. I've always really loved animals and grew up volunteering at animal shelters and clinics. That resulted in me adopting and owning many pets throughout my life, including 3 dogs, a cat, a rabbit, a duck, 2 parakeets, 2 gerbils and approximately 28 hamsters (oops). I currently don't have any pets of my own and really miss having furry companions. I would be glad to help care for yours! I work remotely and will be able to spend a lot of time with your pets at home. My schedule is generally flexible so I can also accommodate special requests along with your communication/updating preferences. I'm very active and would be all too happy to have any furry friends on my daily walks. I'm also generally a really clean, tidy and organized person, with a green thumb if you have plants. I will treat your pets and home with care as if they were my own. Please don't hesitate to ask if you have any questions at all. I am available all days of the week and can do overnights in your home. I'm a fully remote worker with a flexible part-time schedule so I can accommodate most types of pet care I'm a fully remote worker with a flexible part-time schedule so I can accommodate most types of pet care, along with your preferred level of communication and updates. Being remote and flexible means I can provide a high level of care, presence and playtime for your pets. I also don't do drop-in visits, only housesits, so your pets would be my only petsitting focus. My primary vehicle is a small newer RV campervan so I can sleep either in your home or in my RV (which is less than 20 feet long, fits in one regular parking spot, does not require any utilities from the house). Off-street parking would be preferred.
About: Hi! I’m Gia, and I’ve spent the past 4 years on and off caring for pets of all kinds—dogs, cats, bunnies, and everything in between. From daily walks and feedings to administering meds and giving lots of love, I treat every pet like my own. I understand how important it is to know your furry friend is in good hands, and I’m here to give them comfort, care, and attention while you’re away. I work full-time in the mornings, which leaves my afternoons, evenings, and weekends open for pet care! I’m reliable, experienced, and love giving pets the attention and comfort they need while you’re away. Whether it’s a walk, a feeding, or overnight care, your pet will be treated like family. In Your Home: I treat your space with respect and your pet like family. I maintain their routine, keep things tidy, and send regular updates so you always know how they’re doing. Whether it’s walks, play, or quiet companionship, your pet gets consistent, attentive care every visit.
About: I am new to this app, but I’m not new to loving and caring for dogs. I treat every doggy like they’re my own because to me, this is more than just a job, it’s about building trust and creating a safe, loving space while you're away. Whether it's a walk, playtime, or cozy cuddles on the couch, I’m here to give your dog the same love and care you would. I’m available Monday through Friday, with the exception of Friday mornings. On weekends, I’m also available and happy to help with walks, drop-ins, or overnight stays. I provide care in your dog’s home, where they feel safest and most comfortable. I don’t think I will be providing services in my own home since it’s an apartment, but I’m more than happy to come to yours, whether that’s for walks, feedings, playtime, or just keeping your doggy company. I’ll treat your home with the same care and respect I give your dog, and I’ll always follow your instructions closely to make sure everything runs smoothly while you’re away.
About: I love dogs and would love to have a furry friend keep me company! I grew up with a dog and now days I love watching my “nephew” Yukon who is a golden retriever lab mix! I work from home full time and can hang out with your dog at home! I love taking a walk or short hike during my lunch break! I don’t have a fenced yard so they would mostly hang out with me indoors or outside with me if the weather is nice. Spacious area downstairs that the dog can run and play.
“I can’t say enough amazing things about Julia! She took incredible care of Kensie and sent me frequent updates. Both Kensie and I are looking forward to working with Julia again soon!”
“Julia, Thank you so much for watching Tandy for us while we had our wedding Reception!! It was so nice to know that we could relax knowing she was in your care and having a great time ?.”
About: I can't remember a time when there wasn't an animal in my household whether it was a bird, dog, or cat my family has always had some kind of pet. Currently, I have 1 pitbull named Athena back at home. As you can guess I have done my fair share of dog walking. In addition to my family's pet history, I have worked with a variety of animals including cats, birds, horses, and pigs. I also intern at 2 vet clinics where I deal with dogs of all sizes. I am open to working with all breeds and sizes and would love to get to know you as an owner and your pet! I am currently a college student on summer vacations and can accommodate pet walking on Mondays and Tuesdays and early morning on the weekends (Saturday and Sunday). I can ensure that your pet will be safe with me. If accommodations for your pet are needed I am more than happy to put those accommodations into place, as your pet's saftey and happiness are my number 1 concern.

Linda L.
“Linda is OUTSTANDING. I was away for about two weeks and I never had a worry about my two cats in her care. One of my cats, Holly, is very shy and skittish and she warmed up to Linda quickly and they became best buddies. The other cat, Cilas, is a Bengal and takes more work deciphering what he wants and Linda did a great job of figuring him out. Both cats were well cared for and the home as well. My home was just as I left it clean and tidy. I totally recommend Linda for sitting with your pets. She is totally responsible and so caring. I would love to have her back again.”
Giavanna B.

Hannah is wonderful. She took excellent care of my fur babies. She was kind, caring, and attentive to my babies. I highly recommend her services.
We had a fantastic experience with Josh! He took great care of our six-year-old dog, Roma, while we were away. He sent regular updates and photos, which gave us peace of mind knowing she was in good hands. Not only was he incredibly responsive and communicative, but he also went above and beyond—he kept our home spotless, polished our stovetop, and even offered to drop us off at the airport. Roma seemed happy and relaxed when we got home, which says it all.
Elena so great with Walter and very easy to contact. She gave lots of updates and I certainly use her again!
Ryan really is fantastic. He spent a lot of time with our dogs while we were away and took great care of them. He’s reliable, communicated well, sent pics, left everything in order, and we would feel very comfortable leaving our “kids” in his care any time again. Thanks so much Ryan!
Thank you so much! She took such good care of my little girl and was also such a great house sitter.
Adam was wonderful to work with! He was always kind and prompt in his communication. He spent time getting to know our dog before we left so we felt very comfortable with the arrangement, and was flexible and able to work around his work/school schedule to provide the best care possible for our dog. He stayed at our house while we were on vacation and we came home to a spotless and well taken care of house, as well as a happy and healthy dog! We highly recommend Adam for any of your dog-sitting needs.
The boys always love their time with Ashley! She is an excellent sitter and always gives great updates with lots of photos. We are repeat customers!
Jennefer did an excellent job taking care of my high energy pup and adult cat! She was very professional and thoughtful, kept me updated with photos while I was away, and gave my pets the exercise and love they needed! Jennefer was able to confidently handle my high energy, large shepherd. She asked thoughtful questions about our training strategies and kept me updated about the mood and activities of both pets. I came home to a clean house and two relaxed and happy pets. Thanks, Jennefer!
Lucas was an amazing dog sitter! After moving to the Monterey area he watched our dogs over the holidays and was very thorough, respectful, and communicative. He always asked questions and gave us updates, going above and beyond what we asked. Hands down the best dog/house sitter we have used in the 4+ years of using rover!
Shane was absolutely amazing!! Luna is very high energy and he took such amazing care of her! He sent us lots of updates and made sure everything went smoothly! Would 100% use again!
Lynayah was a wonderful sitter! 10/10 recommend using her for your next trip. She kept us updated on all things dog related and took great care of our wonderful pup!! He was in great spirits when we got home from our trip and was tired out from his weekend of fun activities. We will definitely be using Lynayah for any of our upcoming dog sitting needs. Thank you Lynayah so much for taking care of our pup and providing him with so much love!❤️
