1. Lisbet A.
“As a first-time user I was hesitant but Lisbet put us at ease. She showed up on time, gave us pupdates, house was left in order, and pup seemed happy.”
2. Don D.
“Don was very attentive with our senior dog! She has quite a few needs these days and Don was detail-oriented and followed all our instructions carefully. It made it much easier for us to enjoy our trip knowing that our dog was in good hands. He sent lots of updates and photos. We even think our pup was missing her new friend after we returned. :)”
3. Katrina C.
“Katrina was fantastic! She took great care of our two dogs over the 4th of July holiday. They both get very nervous from fireworks, which there are a lot of in our neighborhood, so it was great having someone there with them! I would definitely recommend her to others.”
4. Carissa M.
“I've known Carissa (and her lovely pets) for over 8 years. Even as a teenager, she always took responsibility for the care of her family pets, making sure they got to their vet appointments and working hard to find the best possible care for them. When her childhood dog, Pepper, passed away recently, Carissa did everything she could to make Pepper feel comfortable and loved in her final moments. I know that Pepper enjoyed a long, happy life thanks to Carissa. I had Carissa take care of my 2 chihuahuas for a few days while I was away recently, and they loved her! She sent me photos and updates on my pups while I was away so that I knew they were ok, and she was very considerate about leaving my house in order, locking up etc. when she left. I would absolutely trust her to stay with my babies whenever I leave town again. Carissa truly cares about the well-being of every animal she meets and loves their company. She's super reliable, kind, and respectful, to people and animals alike. I know she'll be an awesome pet sitter and take great care of any animal she looks after.”
5. Belle O.
“Belle is the best. She has great energy and her love for our animals is so appreciative! We truly lucked out with meeting Belle. She’s the definition of pet sitter in my book! :)”
6. Opal C.
“Opal was perfect for our dog who is nervous of strangers she took her time with him and was able to get him to work with her to go for walks and hang out together for the day ? We would definitely use her again if and when we come back to her neighborhood”
7. Angie D.
“The best!”
8. Sarah D.
“Sarah was amazing!! She was so patient with our puppy and took the time to get to know her. Appreciate all the walks and our pups loved her! Highly recommend”
9. Marcie J.
“Marcie is wonderful and has taken top spot as my dog’s favorite person. Maddie is always excited to see Marcie and it makes going away a lot easier when I know Maddie is home and happy with Marcie.”
10. Julia O.
“Julia is punctual every visit. She takes great care with our dog ECHO and is responsive to her needs. Julia is caring and shares progress photos and notes throughout her day.”
11. Harry W.
“I can't say enough good things about Harry! He has been amazing with my large pitbull, who can be quite aggressive towards other dogs. His calm and confident approach has made all the difference. I trust him completely to take care of my dog, and it's clear he genuinely cares about my dogs well-being :) Knowing my dog is in such capable hands gives me great peace of mind. I highly recommend Harry to anyone looking for a reliable and skilled dog sitter.”
12. Megan D.
“Megan is an animal lover who is responsible, reliable, and trustworthy. She has taken great care of my pets whenever I need a pet sitter for the past couple years. I highly recommend her!”
13. Alexander C.
“Alexander was amazing! Super communicative all day, sent tons of photos, regular updates. I barely feel like I left because he kept me so informed about how Nova was doing even down to noticing the little things! Highly recommend and I will definitely have him back in the future. Grateful he was randomly able to come with an hours notice when another sitter canceled. Thank you”
14. Princess Elizabeth R.
“Princess is an incredible, loving, and responsible pet caregiver. Princess is currently working in the veterinary field and is studying to become a veterinary technician! So you know she has your pet’s best interest at heart. Her personality is charming, friendly, and professional. Princess has proven to be someone you can trust your furry family members with.”
15. Dylan S.
“Thanks Dylan! Appreciate you taking care of our boys and making sure they were well loved. Thanks for being communicative with us and keeping up the text updates.”
16. Audrey w.
“For the second time time we invited Audrey to in-home sit with our dog, Crockett. They have become good buddies. Audrey is thoughtful about following our instructions for his care and she sends lots of pictures of their activities.”
17. Yoshiko O.
“Yoshiko was one of THE BEST sitter we've ever had. She kept the place extremely clean, probably even cleaner than when we left it. Our dog looked healthy and happy in Yoshiko's care. She was extremely communicative throughout the whole process, and very respectful of our space. We've had many Rover sitters in the past, and we'd always be nervous leaving our dog in someone else's care, but Yoshiko made us feel extremely at ease while being away. We would definitely have Yoshiko care for our dog again any time we're away.”
18. Salem M.
About: I have been a pet parent of birds, turtles, fish, two cats, and currently my cat Cocoa and dog Bucky! My fur babies are both rescued from the street and/ or abusive homes, so I have experience with how to care for anxious animals. I learned to care for very small kittens as well as adult cats. I have experience with caring for small and large dogs, and I am always learning how to better care for each animal I meet! I can provide basic care for aquatic animals. I am also fluent in English and Spanish. Tengo experiencia cuidando pajaros, perros grandes o chicos, y cuidado basico de animales aquaticos. Apriendo como cuidar por gatos adultos y de chiquitos. Siempre estoy aprendiendo la manera mejor para cuidar cada animal! I work part time, with the intent of pet care becoming my full time job! I am able to travel within Orange County to client's homes for house sitting as well as walks or simple drop in visits. For house sitting, I will make sure to ask for any important medical/personal pet information I need to know beforehand (food, medicine, personality traits). For walks, as well as food or medicines, I will always set timers/reminders for a well structured daily routine for our animal friends! For walks or drop in visits I will be sure to bring or ask about treats, and bring toys and extra supplies.
19. Faye P.
“Absolutely thrilled with Faye's dog walking and house-sitting services! From our initial call, Faye was incredibly attentive, patiently answering all of my questions and addressing any concerns. Once we embarked on our 5-day trip, Faye consistently sent updates and photos of our beloved Baxter. These regular check-ins not only reassured us but also brought joy to our trip as we could see Baxter was in good hands. Returning home, we were pleasantly surprised to find our house in better condition than when we left. Faye went the extra mile to ensure everything was picked up and tidy. What truly touched us was the heartfelt note she left, expressing gratitude for the opportunity and trust to care for our furry family member and home. Faye's dedication and the care she provided exceeded our expectations, and we are immensely grateful. Without a doubt, we will be seeking her services again in the future. Thank you, Faye, for going above and beyond!”
