“Giovanny was awesome! He was kind, respectful and communicative. He was great with our pup. He followed our instructions and our pup loved him. We were even running late to get back home on time and Gio stayed until we returned. Highly recommend!”

“Such an awesome guy! Just did a quick day trip celebrating my partners birthday. Super fast with communication, sent video and picture updates and Ace loved him! Cant wait to book again, we appreciate you!”

“Shea was so attentive to Milo. He's a special needs dog and Shea was great with him. Milo got sick the day before my return and she went out of her way to buy chicken for him for his upset stomach and she would give me updates and videos throughout her stay. I will be more then happy to use Shea in the future.”

“This was our first sit with Jordan and it was great! We booked last minute but Jordan was great about doing a meet and greet with us on short notice. Petunia took easily to Jordan and my wife and I felt good knowing she was in good hands. Jordanwas great about keeping us updated throughout the day and sending pictures of Petunia. We will definitely be keeping Jordan in mind for our future pet sitting needs.”

“From the first time my dog and I met Cassandra, I knew he’d be in good hands immediately and she proved that today. She house sat for me and took care of Riley and when she arrived, was very attentive to the care he required and that made me feel at ease entrusting him to her while I was away. She will definitely be my go to sitter moving forward and should be yours too!!”

“Chris did a great job for us. We have an olderJack Russell who has some special needs. Chris really likes dogs and dogs like him. He spent a week in our home and was very respectful of our home. Not only can I highly recommend him but I'll definitely be using him again. Thank you Chris!”


“Lucia was wonderful and deserves 10 stars if I could give them!! From the start she responded quickly to my request, we set up a meet and greet to see if we were the right fit and I knew right away she would be great. We met a second time before leaving so the dogs would be familiar with her and it went off without a hitch! In addition to walking the dogs, sending me photos and videos and updates, I came home to a wonderfully clean home. I can tell she even ran the vacuum over the floors before our return (this did not go unnoticed - with two hairy dogs and black bamboo floors throughout the house every hair shows). I cannot recommend Lucia highly enough!!! It was such a relief to know my furbabies and my home were in good hands!! We will definitely be requesting her services again!”

“First time with Sarah and we felt totally comfortable after our meet and greet with her and our dogs. She asked questions and kept us updated on the doggies. She sent pictures of the dogs. We came home and the doggies were happy to see us and looked like they had a good weekend. No issues with Brooklyn’s medication, pill or injection. Plan to ask her back for a future sitting.”

About: Growing up, we always had dogs around (German shepherds, border collie, pit bull). When I moved away, I missed having my furry best friends around. I adopted my pup Professor Wellington from a shelter in LA when he was around 6-8 months old. He was the first little dog I ever had which seemed easier living in apartments in LA & NYC and traveling. We had almost 13 years together before he recently passed away, and now I have an even bigger soft spot for older dogs that need some extra TLC. I have a regular 8-5 type job during the week, and I have the most flexibility in my day on Friday afternoon/evenings and the weekends. Having a pup that was an escape artist in the beginning, I’m very aware of checking for possible escape routes. I’m also used to watching for signs of anxiety and fear with the environment and other people/dogs. Every dog is different, but I want them to feel as comfortable, happy & safe as possible. For any house sitting requests, I do require doing a meet and greet prior to confirming the booking to make sure that we are all on the same page
“Jackson stayed at our home with our two hounds for about two weeks while we travelled internationally. We were so happy to have him! He was attentive, caring, and kept our house in tip top shape while we were away. He made sure to text us daily with updates and sent the best photos of our boys. Truly appreciative of his excellent service”

“Nicolas stayed at our house and look care of our 70 pound, reactive, German shepherd, Danny and did such an incredible job. He sent us videos and photos throughout his stay and always kept us updated on how Danny was doing. We’ve used serveral rover’s in the past and Nicolas is by far the most attentive and professional Rover we’ve ever had. I can’t recommend Nicolas enough, he was a 10/10 hire.”
“This was our first experience with pet sitting and I couldn’t be happier. Marijo stayed at our house and took care of our cats like they were her own. She sent pictures/updates daily which made us feel extra comforted. When we came home, our cats didn’t seem stressed or lonely in the slightest. Plus, our home was clean and put back together like we never left. I can’t recommend her enough and have already booked Marijo again for an upcoming vacation!”


“It was very evident the amount of care and commitment Cathy watched my two pets, a dog and a cat with! The entire time I was gone, I was very confident they were well loved”
“Lauren is amazing! She stayed at our house with our dog and two cats for eight days. She truly loves and cares for animals, she was communicative, detailed and left our house in perfect condition.”

Cassandra has been such a blessing, she’s reliable, kind and our Coco Bean immediately loved her! She has been very responsive and communicative. Her compassion and love for animals is apparent in how she conducts herself and how our pet responds to her. We look forward to working with her in the future! Thanks Cassandra!

Stephanie is the BEST! She watched my girl (and home) for 2 weeks while I was away and everything went great! Stephanie sends photos and texts daily (actually a few times a day) which really eased my mind seeing how happy my cat was. I highly recommend Stephanie!

Anna is great! Our dog Darrel loved her. She responded right away to my request to book and came over the same day to meet our dog and to let me show her where everything is in the house. We needed her to come at 5am the next day and she was there bright and early on time. She sent us pictures throughout the day to let us know how Darrel was doing. We will definitely use Anna again.

Elizabeth is an amazing pet sitter! She house/pet sat our 2 dogs and we felt very comfortable leaving them in her care. She followed our instructions and the dogs’ routine, gave us updates and our fur babies were happy. This was our first time with Elizabeth and we will for sure use her services again. I’ve already sent a referral her way 😊 Thank you so much for taking care of the house and the girls.

I rarely use house/dog sitters that are not family or friends but upon meeting Jacqueline I immediately had a good feeling about inviting her into our home and trusting her with our fur baby. And she exceeded all expectations. Very communicative. Very considerate of our home and our dogs needs and schedule. I would most definitely recommend her and hope to book her again in the future. 😊

We can highly recommend Sam. We booked months ahead and he came promptly to meet our dogs and to understand what was expected of him. The week before he was to sit, he visited with the dogs, again. One of our dogs has medical needs that require multiple meds and supplements. Sam gave her what she needed, on schedule. He took the dogs on good walks, avoiding the hottest part of the day. For a week, he stayed overnight with them. (Our home was left neat and clean by Sam.) Our dogs were clearly well-taken care of. He sent us photos and videos of their daily activities. We certainly will rebook Sam when we need a sitter we can trust to care for our dogs. Thank you, Sam!

We couldn’t have asked for a better experience with Tanesha and Gabi! They stayed in our home and took wonderful care of our three cats while we were away, including our new kitten, which made leaving especially hard since it was our first time being away from her. Tanesha and Gabi made everything so much easier by keeping us updated and sending us photos of the kitties while we were gone. It was such a relief to see that everyone was happy and doing well. Everything went smoothly from start to finish, and when we came home, the house was clean, everything was in order, and our kitties were happy and clearly well cared for. They were responsible, respectful of our home, and absolutely wonderful with our cats. We felt completely comfortable having them stay in our home, and we would 100% have them watch our kitties again. Highly recommend Tanesha and Gabi! 💕🐾

So thankful for Lizeth! She came over to help me with my girl super last minute and was just so wonderful. Lizeth was so good with my baby, extremely kind and caring. I will definitely be booking with Lizeth again and you should absolutely consider her to take care of your babies 💕

Our second time booking with Giovanny! He is definitely among the more reliable sitters we’ve used on Rover. I appreciated the abundance of pictures and regular communications on the dogs and their welfare. Knowing they were taken care of, allowed us peace of mind while we were away. We would gladly book again!

Chris did a great job for us. We have an olderJack Russell who has some special needs. Chris really likes dogs and dogs like him. He spent a week in our home and was very respectful of our home. Not only can I highly recommend him but I'll definitely be using him again. Thank you Chris!

Mikhayla is great! We have two kittens and two senior dogs, all with different levels of energy and needs. Everyone was happy and well taken care of after 3 nights in Mikhayla’s care. The house was very tidy upon our return, too. I definitely recommend her services.

Carson was amazing!!! She watched BMO for over a week and really took great care of him. She sent us updates at great times and was very accommodating. She really made us feel he was in great hands. Highly recommend her to anyone else looking for a sitter and will be using her again for future travels.
