“Hannah is the best! I highly recommend her. She is professional, super sweet, loves my pets. She's attentive and makes sure they have everything they need and is very communicative.”
“Michelle was amazing with my dogs! She came and did extra long drop in visits and made sure not only the dogs were good but cleaned up the back yard daily too! I will definitely be using her again soon!”
“Laura is so nice, friendly, professional, and knowledgeable. I know my two huskies can be a handful, but I felt so at ease having her stop by to let them go potty and eat dinner while I was out of town on a day trip. I was able to enjoy my time and not have to worry about their safety. She was sure to clarify any questions and followed all their medication needs. I know my dogs enjoyed having someone stop by and give them some loving while I was gone too. She also sent me the cutest pictures of my babies! So grateful for Laura!”
“Brittany was so sweet and wonderful! She took care of our Golden while we were away and was so accommodating to our schedule. She is so great with dogs and we could tell immediately that our dog would be comfortable with her. She took him on long walks, played with him, and made sure he was happy while we were away. Thank you again! Would highly recommend Brittany to anyone in need of a dog sitter!”
“Esmeralda did a great job with the drop-in visit for our dogs. Instructions were followed perfectly, and the pups were well-fed and happy. We returned home to two very happy dogs. Highly recommend Esmeralda for anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”
About: I love dogs and know how important they are to their family. I've been around dogs throughout my whole life and have watched all kinds of dogs varying in size and age, and will take care of your dog with the love and attention they deserve. I have a flexible work-from-home situation and work on-call in the evenings so I tend to have a lot of time in the weekdays. I can usually accommodate last-minute care if my availability is free. I have an 11-year-old dog (mixed-breed, medium size) who can accompany your dog if you'd like them to get interaction. Comfortable walking up to 3 dogs at a time, can feed, play fetch, and crate your dog if required to help them exercise and stay on track with their usual schedule.
About: Pets are family and animals are my life! I have always had pets growing up as a child and my love for them has grown into my adulthood even more. I have a passion for learning and understanding all different types of animals. My experience in pet care is from having my own pets as well as caring for family and friends pets. I'm currently employed by Trots Dogs Walking, which has added to my knowledge and experience. I provide safe, nurturing care for all animals. I’m friendly and trustworthy putting pets and their families at ease with reliable, loving care. I'm currently working part time as a dog walker for Trots Dogs, so I have plenty of down time throughout the week to pet sit and love your furries. I follow the specific instructions and guidelines, ensuring all pets are safe, well-fed, exercised, loved, and comfortable. I make sure each and every family pet member is taken care of just like you would.
About: I have taken care of my dog for 2 years. I bathe and groom him, and play with him so he’s not lonely or bored! Although I would prefer not to work on the weekends, if necessary or requested I would never turn a customer down. Other than that, I am available all days of the week Pets only get the best treatment from me! They have all my love and attention. Walks are always great for me because I love to work out, and I’m happy to make you and your dog happy!
About: I really enjoy taking walks on the beach. I am fun and reliable. Whether your dog needs a walk, your cat needs some cuddles, or your guinea pig just wants someone to chat with while you’re away, I’m here for it all! I’ve loved animals since I could walk, and I treat every pet like they’re my own—belly rubs, goofy voices, and all I work from home so it's really easy to have a pet in my house or for me to do house visits. As long as I can take my laptop and have Wi-Fi I can definitely spend all day with your pet. ChatGPT Log in You said: Can you make me a fun introduction for my rover account ChatGPT said: Absolutely! Here's a fun and friendly introduction you can use for your Rover profile to attract pet parents: Hi there! I'm [Your Name] – your pet's new best friend 🐾 Whether your dog needs a walk, your cat needs some cuddles, or your guinea pig just wants someone to chat with while you’re away, I’m here for it all! I’ve loved animals since I could walk, and I treat every pet like they’re my own—belly rubs, goofy voices, and all. With me, your furry (or feathered!) family member will be in safe, loving hands while you’re away. I'm reliable, detail-oriented, and most importantly, I know that every pet has their own unique personality—and I love getting to know them all. Let’s make tails wag and whiskers twitch! 🐶🐱✨ Want me to tailor it for dogs only, include experience details, or make it more laid-back or professional? You said: Include house sitting as well ChatGPT said: Absolutely! Here's a fun and welcoming Rover profile intro that includes house sitting and emphasizes trust, care, and your love for pets: Hi! I'm [Your Name] – your pet's new BFF & trusted house sitter 🐾🏡 Heading out of town? I’ve got your back—and your pets’ too! Whether it’s cozy couch snuggles with your pup, playtime with your kitty, or just making sure your home stays safe and cared for while you’re away, I bring peace of mind and lots of love. I offer reliable, respectful house sitting, so your pets can stay in the comfort of their own home while sticking to their routine (plus, I’m great at watering plants and bringing in the mail too!). Every pet has their own quirks and needs, and I love getting to know their personalities—from zoomies to nap champs. Think of me as your stand-in human while you're away—treating your space and your pets with the same care I would my own. 🐕🐈💤 Let’s chat—I’d love to meet you and your fur family! Want to add anything about your experience (e.g. "years of pet sitting" or "background in animal care") or your availability? I can personalize it more! You said: How do I respond to this on Rover? How do you care for pets in your home and/or your client's home? This will vary depending on which service you offer. ChatGPT said: Great question—this is your chance to show potential clients that you're attentive, responsible, and genuinely care about animals! Here’s a professional yet warm sample answer you can tailor based on your services: I care for pets like they’re my own—with love, patience, and attention to their unique needs. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home (house sitting), I do my best to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. That includes regular feeding, walks, playtime, cuddles, and any specific instructions you provide—whether that’s medication, crate time, or favorite treats! I keep the home tidy, water plants if needed, and always make sure your pet feels safe and comfortable while you're away. If I'm ever caring for pets in my own home (if I offer boarding), I make sure they have a cozy space, supervised play, and plenty of love and attention throughout the day. I follow all care instructions to the letter and give regular updates so you feel connected while you're apart from your pet. Every animal is different, and I’m happy to adjust my care based on their personality, energy level, and routine. Communication is key, so I’m always available for updates or questions!

Gates to keep the dogs away from the stairs as well.
“Lauren took care of Dakota by dropping in 3 times a day for an hour each time. I cannot recommend her enough. Dakota easily bonded with her and seemed to just know she was a good human!

About: I have been taking care of and loving pets for about 5 years. Through either having my own pet or taking care of family, friends, and neighbors pets. I have handled almost every type of animal (Dogs, Cats, Bunnies, Birds, Fish, Turtles, etc). I have done very aggressive cats along with sweet loving cats and for dogs, I have handled big dogs (150lbs), small dogs (8-12lbs), and everything in between. I have not taken care of any senior dogs or cats yet, nor have I done much medication (other than pills) but I am very open and eager to learn. I am currently an 18 year old (almost 19) who is a full time student in college but since it's summer I am off. I also do have a "real job" (part time) as-well but I will definitely work with you and around my schedule for your animals to make sure they are well taken care of. I joined Rover because I love caring for animals and I would also like the opportunity to make new friends along with making a little extra money to help pay for my college tuition. I am willing to work around your animals needs and change my schedule so that your pets get the love and attention they deserve. I am a very good listener and I will take care of your pet exactly how you tell me to. I will make sure they are well fed and loved while they are in my control. I will make sure they get any medicine they need, cleaned up after, walked, fed, watered, and whatever else is needed. I will keep in contact with you while you are gone sending you photo updates of your pet as-well so that way you know your pet is happy and healthy. 😊

About: I have experience with cats, dogs, and snakes. I also have a blue nose pitbull myself, so I am comfortable with large breeds. I have experience with dog medication, including pills. I am a college student looking for income for the summer, and I enjoy dogs so much. I take care of my dog daily, which includes playing tug of war, taking her out, feeding and making sure she has water, bike rides, etc. I am a highly energetic person who cares for dogs deeply, so I assure you I will play, feed, and love your dog unconditionally. My dog sleeps in my bed and knows many tricks, so if you'd like your dog to learn tricks I can do that as well!

I understand each dog is unique, so I tailor each walk to fit their personality and energy level!

Michael T.
“Mike has been watching my dog for over 2 years. I think he loves animals more than people. The worst thing you can say about Mike is that he likes the San Francisco Giants. From the moment my dog, Jerry, met Mike, he loved him immediately. Jerry was a pound pit who was found in a cardboard box. He has been sceptical with most people (not aggressive), but has always found Mike to be a person of safety. His soft and nice demeanor makes people, and animals, feel at ease. When Mike watches Jerry, I do not ever question the well-being of my dog. I only question that my dog will be less enthusiastic that he has to return to his actual owner. Mike is a five star person.”
Melina A.
“Melina has a special connection with animals. They are drawn to her. And she loves them as her own! Add that to the fact that she’s an amazing person in general. Perfect combo!!! She will become your pets best friend!”

Blanca C.
“She is great! I let her walk my old English sheepdog (Ollie) and he is a handful. He is so energetic and he needs super long walks. He came back from a 3-mile walk on the Manhattan Beach trail and he came back so tired and slept so well. She's excellent with Ollie.”

Maria de Jesus R.
“She is very caring and loves dogs and cats. She always had dogs her entire life. She takes great care of of her current dog Ash. She comes home during her lunch to feed him as well to take him potty.”
Cota pet parents share their Rover experiences
Andrea is a wonderful cat sitter! She is responsive, respectful, and truly cares about the pets she looks after. One of my cats usually takes time to warm up to people, but she was very patient and gentle, always doing her best to make them feel comfortable. I really appreciated her dedication and would absolutely recommend her to others—and will definitely book her again!
Oh my goodness, Gabby is a dream!!! Our senior kitties were in amazing hands!!! Gabby’s visits were consistent. Her attention to detail with any questions I may have left out, prior to our departure, was on point. Each visit she made was filled with cute pictures of the babies and details of their time spent together. We had complete confidence that our furr-children were safe, happy and being cared for with love. We wholeheartedly would recommend any family to entrust the care of their furr-babies with Gabrielle. 💕💕💕
Highly recommend Emma Jean and Bryce! They are so caring with our fur babies. We are so glad we found them and being so close to us makes it very convenient. Max and Zoe were happy to have them drop by, feed them and visit with them while we were out for the day.
I absolutely love Michelle!! I'm pretty sure there isn't anyone sweeter than her! We came in for a short vacation/concert. We have anxious dogs, and thankfully she has experience with that. She was so helpful and willing to stay with our dogs the whole time we were gone. They fell in love with her!! We were able to have a great time at our event without worrying at all! I cannot recommend her enough. We have had quite a few sitters of the past few years, and she is hands-down the best!!
OMG! Prudence is amazing and my Handsome just took right too her. She stopped by, snuggled and played with him and even hand fed him treats like I mentioned (he loves that!). She gave the best updates and photos. She even cleaned up after my handsome when he barfed on the rug (hate she had to deal with that 😩)... she was so nice to me too... because I was nervous about getting a cat sitter (great customer service!) I'm confident my Poppie Doop was well taken care of 🥰🥰🥰😁 Prudence will definitely be my go to person to keep my baby company, when I'm gone! Soo grateful 🙏🏿 🙏🏿🙏🏿
Philip was so good with my dog Frankie. He’s a pitbull and so some people don’t like him , but Philip was so good with Frankie! My dog LOVED Philip. He was so nice and sent me photos of my dog during their visit. I highly recommend Philip. He even took a toy from my dog when he tore it up so he didn’t swallow or choke on the pieces. 🙂🩵
Daisy took amazing care of my two cats while I was out of the country. She was reliable, attentive, and clearly loves animals, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. I came home to happy, well-cared-for pets and everything just as I left it. I’d absolutely book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter.
Jordan was awesome. Her availability, flexility, and overall love for pets sets her apart from other sitters. Jordan kept us updated and sent pictures at every visit; she even left us some Polaroids of our pup as a surprise when we got home. We will be definitely booking with Jordan again!!!
Nitzan was amaaaaaazing with my cats and kittens. She went totally above and beyond and took the most amazing care of them. I'm sure no one else would have loved on them or cared for them more. She even noticed that one of my cats had an infected eye and took it upon herself to give him antibiotic ointment daily. I trust Nitzan completely with my animals and am so grateful to have found her here. I'll be hiring Nitzan every time I go out of town.
