About: I’ve grown up with pets and have had pets most of my life. I had a Labrador for 6 years and a Chihuahua for 5. I’ve also had two cats for 3 years, and I’ve raised all my pets since they were little puppies and kittens. I love pampering my pets and I’d love the opportunity to pamper yours! I am currently studying at an online college so I have a lot of flexibility with scheduling pet care into my schedule. I just need 2 days notice of when to arrive so I can plan things out. My approach varies depending on the temperament of the pet (if they are high energy, low energy, timid, etc). If they are high energy and comfortable I’m happy to play with them and let them burn that energy off, if they’re lower energy or timid I’m happy to keep an eye on them and give them their space.
“Taylor took great care of my cats while I traveled. She followed instructions and provided updates and photos. Even though one of my cats ran out by accident (which was expected cuz she’s normally indoor-outdoor), but Taylor ensured she was back in the house for the day. I’d be happy to have her sit my fur babies again!”
“Lani is our most trusted and favorite sitter! Casper and Jewel are always so well taken care of and happy in her care. She always takes great photos and is super flexible with our schedule!”
About: Hi, growing up I had a lot of pets. Currently I have 5 pets. I’ve always enjoyed the companionship of dogs. Everyday I care for my dog with simple love and care, walking, feeding, cleaning. Hi I am currently in college but I am free in the afternoon most weekdays. I like to keep thursdays for myself so I most likely won’t do them. I can watch pets either inside or outside the house. My pets go outside to the front yard and inside the house. I live in a safe neighborhood where other dog owners enjoy walking their dogs as well.
About: Hello! My name is Jada. I have an 11-year-old Shih Tzu that lives like a king! Though he is a couch potato, he enjoys walks, playing fetch, and going on car rides in his car seat! I’ve had pets my entire life and have experience caring for ones with special needs and diets. Any and all instructions you inform me of will be followed with the utmost care to keep your pet satisfied! I am currently a full-time college student, however, I have a full house. Therefore, my family and I collaborate and have a ton of time on our hands to care for and spend time with your pets! My dog is always indoors when not supervised and is afraid of the steps at all exits so no gates are needed, but I ensure that your dog will be supervised at all times when inside and out. Whatever instructions I am given will be followed to ensure that your pet's routine is maintained and they remain comfortable.
“Veronica did a fantastic job caring for our one cat in our home. She kept our cat happy and well-fed and our apartment clean; she even watered some houseplants! She clearly cares strongly for animals and made us certain she was caring for our cat as her own. We would strongly recommend her to anyone in the area seeking care for pets!”
“3rd booking and as with the past Megan is absolutely fantastic! As long as she’s willing to provide this service, we couldn’t imagine anyone else taking care of our fur babies! Thanks so much Megan; you’re awesome!!!🤗🤗”
“Adela did a fantastic job housesitting our two cats! She is very gentle and loving and our anxious boy warmed up to her fairly quickly! We felt very secure during our trip knowing that our kitties were in good hands and getting lots of love and attention. Adela always sent us amazing updates with photos and videos and we can tell our boys had a good time with her! We would totally trust her to look after our boys again! 10/10 Thank you Adela! <3”
About: I’ve had dogs since i was a child my first dog was a schnauzer named pato had him for 10 years now I have conchita she is a little baby girl pug the queen of the house. Im working a part time and have some time in the afternoon and weekends Also with the help of my husband and boy who loves to care for animals since he was a baby.

You can tell they truly love and care about animals! It was a great feeling knowing that Fiona was in great hands and being loved and cared for. Thank you so much, Fiona is incredibly grateful for your kind hospitality.”
About: I have taught my dogs basic, yet necessary commands. I nurtured my 6 year old lab back to health, recovering from her TPLO surgery with no complications! I currently have 5 dogs in the family ranging from 13lbs up to 80lbs, and one funny little cat. I have always loved animals and grew up birds, iguanas, bunnies, cats, dogs and turtles. Quite frankly, I am happiest when I am with my pets and love meeting new ones whenever I get the chance. Currently I am working a part time job, only 10hrs a week. I have a pretty open schedule so I have plenty of time to spare. Since my dogs are house trained, I am confident I can spare some time to offer my services to those with tighter schedules and would be more than happy to! I work on Mondays Wednesdays and Thursdays from 1pm-4pm. If you care for services any of those days feel free to reach out! My time is a little more limited then, but I am willing to see if we can work around my work schedule! I take my dogs on regular walks (I would say abono every 2-3hrs). Although they may not need to potty I find it important to give them as much time outside as I can. When I can keep up I’ll also run/jog with my 1.5yr old pitty/staffie mix since she has a lot of energy. If I can’t due to harsh weather, I cut their treats really small and have them chase the pieces back and forth across my apartment so they get their exercise. As for my cat, she’s mostly hands off and likes to do her own lazy things, but I still give her pets and treats here and there. They are loved dearly and I make sure they feel so every day.
About: I’ve had the pleasure of dog sitting friends and family pups for years. I unfortunately don’t have the right living space to have a pup of my own, so I’m more than happy to meet and care for yours! Services include drop ins, walks, field trips(solo hikes and small group hikes) and bathing! I work as a freelancer in the film/tv industry and am happy to dedicate all my time between jobs to taking care of your furry friends! Every pet is different and I will approach every new client with caution and care. I will always communicate any questions or concerns to ensure everyone is comfortable and safe. If dogs are untrained we can discuss what we’re comfortable with and maybe include some basic training. I will be pet first aid/cpr certified

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - East Los Angeles
This is our first time using Rover and we could not have asked for a better sitter for our two cats. Both cats have had some health issues, so we were hesitant to leave them for even one day. Kris is kind, patient, knowledgeable, and has a wonderful calming presence. Right at the meet & greet, we knew our cats would be well taken care of. She was super communicative and sent detailed updates with photos after each visit - that really gave me (anxious cat parent) a peace of mind. Kris is a gem and we are so lucky to have found her!
Taylor took great care of my cats while I traveled. She followed instructions and provided updates and photos. Even though one of my cats ran out by accident (which was expected cuz she’s normally indoor-outdoor), but Taylor ensured she was back in the house for the day. I’d be happy to have her sit my fur babies again!
So happy we could rely on Jessica to take care of our two kitties while we were traveling. She sent us lots of adorable photos and gave them the pets and love they needed. She went above and beyond and brought in packages and was always great at communicating with us.
Xiuwen was absolutely wonderful with my cat! She went above and beyond, not only making sure all the basics were taken care of, but also paying close attention to small details like cleaning the food area, refreshing the water frequently, and keeping everything spotless and sending regular and detailed updates. My cat usually takes a few days to warm up to new people, but clearly felt comfortable and cared for from day one. I could tell my cat was in the best hands. I can’t recommend Xiuwen highly enough!

House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.

Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
