“Karen was fantastic with our 4 furrbabies! Her loving and calm energy made it easy for our pups and cats to quickly become comfortable with her. She is punctual, responsive and reliable! Extremely grateful to have worked with her and looking forward to having her watch over them in the future. Thank you so much Karen, we appreciate you!”



“Evie has been absolutely wonderful! Easy-going and pleasant to communicate with. My dog loves her and listens to her. Which is important for keeping an energetic, 50 lb dog safe when walking the streets. Will definitely continue to work with her!”

About: Im working on a biology degree, as well as 10 years of taking care of my own pets. I love spending time with all the little ones, no matter how shy or rowdy they are! Im in between classes at the moment, and have nothing but free hours. On Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays I work untill about 3, but other than that my schedule is entirely open! Ive taken care of my dogs with frequent walks, regular feeding times and lots and lots of love. Pets and playtime are important to me as well. Whichever way you like to take care of your pet, all you need to do is ask.

About: Driven by a deep passion for both cats and dogs, I provide exceptional care and love to ensure every pet thrives and feels cherished. Spending time with cats and dogs can be relaxing and reduce stress! Pet care fits really well into my routine since I work from home. I have the flexibility to take care of feeding, walks, playtime, and just spending time with pets throughout the day. I genuinely enjoy it and always make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I’ve a large yard with fence, your dogs will have plenty of room to play and it’s very safe. Comfortable and relaxing area with shades

“Rachel was very attentive to Princess. Unfortunately, while I was away, my dog became sick and had runny stool. Rachel diligently took care of her and communicated about her temperament and well-being.”


About: I've had a Weimaraner since I was seven years old and now also have two small pups, a Sheba/Husky mix and a Havapoo. I am a lifelong dog lover with over five years of trust pet-sitting experience. I'm comfortable with all dog sizes and cared for them with love, patience and lots of playtime. I can care for your pups, weekdays, evenings or weekends. As a dog lover, this is my ideal job and with a very flexible schedule can work with you to best meet your needs. I have my own transportation and can readily come to your house to walk or care for your pets. If needed, I'm available to care for your pups in your home as well.

“Justine is awesome! My kitties love her and Justine was very reliable. She is flexible with my schedule and I love how fast she is when getting back to me. Thank you for taking care of my babies.”


“Desiree takes such good care of my girl and makes sure she feels a little less lonely while we’re at work. I love the fact that she has a senior dog of her own and knows how to handle larger dogs.”


About: Last summer, I had the opportunity to take care of my friend’s dog while they were on vacation. The dog’s name was Max, a playful golden retriever with a lot of energy. Every morning, I would take him for a long walk around the neighborhood park. I made sure to feed him twice a day and always kept his water bowl full. In the afternoons, we would play fetch in the backyard, and in the evenings, he loved sitting next to me while I read a book. Taking care of Max taught me how much responsibility it takes to care for a pet, but it was also a lot of fun and a great bonding experience. I want to become a dog caregiver because I truly love animals, especially dogs. They are loyal, friendly, and bring so much happiness to people’s lives. Spending time with dogs makes me feel relaxed and joyful. I enjoy playing with them, taking them for walks, and making sure they feel safe and loved. I also believe that taking care of dogs is a great way to stay active and learn responsibility. Helping dogs stay healthy and happy would give me a lot of satisfaction. Pet care is an important part of my daily routine. Every morning, I start the day by feeding my dog and making sure he has fresh water. I also take him for a walk to give him some exercise and let him go to the bathroom. In the afternoons or evenings, I spend time playing with him, brushing his fur, and sometimes giving him a bath if needed. On weekends, I take him to the park for longer walks or playtime with other dogs. Taking care of my pet has become a natural and enjoyable part of my life, and it helps me stay active and responsible. When I care for pets in my home or my client’s home, I always make sure their basic needs are met first. This includes providing fresh food and water, taking them out for walks, and giving them enough time to play and exercise. I also clean up after them and make sure their sleeping area is comfortable and safe. If I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their instructions carefully to keep the pet’s routine as normal as possible. I also spend time giving the pets attention, affection, and monitoring their behavior to make sure they are healthy and happy. Communication with the pet owner is very important, so I always send updates and photos to let them know how their pet is doing.

About: I’ve spent over 10 years caring for cats, & dogs ! I truly treat every pet like family. I’m experienced in puppy training, senior pet care, and giving medications when needed, so you can rest easy knowing your pets are in safe, loving hands. Whether it’s playtime, cuddles, or special care for older or special needs pets, I’m here to give them all the attention and love they deserve. Pet care naturally fits into my daily and weekly routine because I already prioritize caring for my own cats. Feeding, cleaning litter boxes, and spending quality playtime with them is a regular part of my day. Adding pet sitting to my schedule feels seamless, as I’m used to maintaining consistent routines, whether it’s early morning feedings, evening check-ins, or administering medications. I enjoy planning my days around pets’ needs, ensuring they get reliable care and plenty of attention every time. In both my home and clients’ homes, I provide safe, loving care, follow routines, keep spaces clean, and give each pet personalized attention and affection.

“Shannon has been so great with Fluffy and our family. She has helped us tremendously! She is very knowledgeable about animals, has great communication, and very helpful. We know our pup is in good hands.”


About: I have a German shepherd and know how to walk and care for larger breed dogs correctly. I also know how to properly use a prong collar and will do long walks if necessary! :) I work part-time but early mornings work best for me. I usually will go to a near by trail for runs/walks with my dog who will be brought along also. I take my dog on daily 3-4 mile runs/walks/hikes to get his exercise in, he has lots of energy. I know how to handle reactive dogs as well!

About: We don't have any pets of our own, but have experience with taking care of cats/dogs for our friends, family, and now Rover clients! My fiancé and I both work from home, so we love being able to keep your pets company. We also have a fenced-in backyard (turf/artificial grass and cement with a shaded patio) where we can play fetch or let your dog sunbathe 🌞 I'm available during the week and on weekends to care for your dogs or cats. My fiancé and I both work from home, and are flexible to take breaks to walk or play with your pets! When boarding your pets, we can offer them plenty of love and attention! For dogs, we usually do at least 2-3 walks per day (we keep the afternoon ones short if it's too hot). We have a large fenced-in backyard and a few parks in walking distance. For cats, we love playing with them with wand toys or simple yarn, or putting some Cat TV on for them haha.

“Leilani was great with our dogs, they loved her and were tired from the playtime with her. She was very punctual and replied to our requests quickly. Will for sure book her again the next time we need to.”


About: Since I can remember, I have always been around and loved dogs. Growing up, my Grandma owed many dogs and was very influential in teaching me to love and care for them and their needs. I started pet sitting when I was in elementary school, with my family members and neighbor's pets. As I got older, I started reaching out to others to offer dog sitting and house sitting services.(Before Rover) Currently, my partner and I rescued a partially blind husky name Zoro. He is a very goofy, calm, loving and gentle dog who is not your typical husky. Currently, i have a flexible work schedule so client pet care can occur at least 2-3 times a week. Availability: Mon - Fri: 3PM - 10PM Sat - Sun: Free availability I have a 6000 sq. ft. house with fencing along the perimeter. In the front, their is a shady avocado tree and porch where your dogs can play and nap. In addition, I have a backyard and garden where your dog can chill and sniff away. Dogs are always accepted inside the household. We are here to accommodate to your dogs needs.

“Elena did a great job! Really appreciate her care and attention to detail. She even brushed our more social kitty and I noticed his coat was a lot smoother when we returned. We will absolutely plan to rebook in the future and would recommend her highly.”


About: I grew up around many domesticated animals my entire childhood, not just dogs but cats, fish, birds, hamsters, etc., to the point where I fondly referred to my childhood home as a zoo. My ability to care for those different animals have not disappeared; quite the contrary, it is constantly and consistently growing. I'm currently working at a veterinary clinic with hands-on experience in regards to the medical side of animal care, and I'm going to school to become a licensed vet tech as well. You can rest assured that your beloved babies will be in confident hands, and you can rest doubly if there are more complex instructions such as daily medication requirements. I'm confident and more than happy to go the extra mile to ensure your furry pal is well-loved and well-taken care of. Ask me any questions you may have, and I'll be more than happy to tell you! As mentioned before, I work at a vet clinic, so I have hands on experience working with the medical side of pet care. Not only that, but I've owned multiple pets of various species, with my current being a feisty little orange tabby. I know the basics, I know the specifics, and I can adjust as needed to meet unique needs. I am adaptable, and will always, always, adjust as needed to make my clients and their pets feel comfortable and at ease. New environments, new strangers in the house, are all stressful changes for a pet, and I know it takes extra time and care to detail to make sure everyone involved has a safe and happy time.

Citrus pet parents share their Rover experiences
First time leaving our kitten in someone else’s care and we couldn’t have been happier. Ann was super attentive, thoughtful and kept us thoroughly updated. Most importantly, our Violet was well taken care of and had a great time with her! Ann will be our go-to the next time we need help.

As cat owners, we were hesitant to use Rover since many sitters seem to specialize with dogs. We noticed that Jaclyn had photos of both cats and dogs on her profile and we were so happy to have found her! From the moment she arrived for the meet and greet, we knew our kitties were in good hands. Even our shy girl, came out to play! We loved the daily picture updates and were impressed with Jaclyn’s ability to get both kitties in frame each time :) In addition to checking in on the kitties, she also checked our mail and offered to bring in the garbage cans after trash day. Overall, we are so so grateful for Jaclyn’s professionalism, communication, and care! 100% recommend for any feline friends!

Michelle was kind, timely, flexible, and professional. She treated our boy gently and followed our instructions on his daily routine. She carefully made sure our door was locked after every visit, and she sent us a photo of our boy each time. We highly recommend Michelle!
