Tyler was an absolute gem when we needed a great cat sitter while we were away for our honeymoon. Tyler sent constant updates (not enough to overwhelm) and was very prompt with answering texts. My cats seem to have loved Tyler and barely noticed us being away for 2 weeks! If you value your cats’ comfort while also being comfortable knowing your cats are safe, give Tyler a try!

Hayley was amazing! So communicative and thorough in the details, and even had some helpful insight for some health stuff with our dog that we weren’t aware of! We’re very much looking forward to having her watch Willow again. ?

Chris was absolutely amazing! She house sat and dog sat our 2 little dogs for two weeks and within that time she quickly developed a wonderful relationship with the dogs. She sent daily updates and photos, and her comments were always thoughtful and gave us great peace of mind. Chris really does care about the animals she looks after! she was a wonderful house guest, and everything was clean and tidy when we returned home. We will definitely use Chris again!!

About: Hi there!! I love cats and dogs, all breeds and sizes. I love spending time and playing with them. I volunteer for the TNR Project working with feral and rescue cats in Monrovia, CA. I have a cat that I cherish dearly, I take her hiking when the weather is good. We love exploring nature together!!

That being said I am very trustworthy and responsible, will update you with pictures of your fur babies and fun activities we do, to give you peace of mind while you’re away. Happy to be there for your fur babies!!😸

Joliana was so wonderful with our cat, Siri! We are always a little nervous to leave our elderly girl who has some light separation anxiety, and needs daily medication, but Joliana did great! She sent photos daily and assured us that Siri was relaxing and had no problem taking her medication. Joli also left our home in great condition. We would definitely hire her again in the future.

About: Animals have always had a very large impact in my life, I’ve always loved being able to care and bond with pets. Aside from having pets of my own, I have also fostered and rescued a few companions! When watching your pet, I can promise that I will treat them with just as much love, care, and compassion as I’ve given to my own pets. I would absolutely love to pet sit for you! I work part time and don’t work summers so I have a good amount of time to help care for your pets! My current summer hours starting in June come out to pretty much anytime on any weekday! If there is a specific day or amount of hours, you’d like me to stay, please feel free to reach out. When caring for your pet I want to make sure that they are as comfortable as possible. Your pet feels the safest in their home and I want to make sure that while I’m there they continue to feel safe and at peace. I will follow any rules or routines provided so that your pet is most comfortable.

About: Use code ELAINH89783 for $20 off your first booking! With over five years of pet sitting experience, I bring genuine care, reliability, and calm attentiveness to every stay. Because I have no pets of my own, your dog receives my complete, undivided focus — no distractions, no divided loyalties. I’m experienced with dogs of all ages and breeds, from high-energy pups to senior companions, and I pride myself on respecting each pet’s unique routine and personality. I take direction seriously — whether from owners or veterinarians — and follow care instructions to the letter. Your home is treated with the same respect: I keep things tidy and leave everything exactly as I found it. My regular clients say it best: I’m the only sitter trusted to watch Haku, a spirited Shiba Inu who needs firm, loving boundaries. I’ve helped nurse Zula, a Taiwanese mountain dog, through a stroke and a serious infection — following vet aftercare with precision. I know how to keep an active dog engaged and an elderly dog comfortable and happy. If you’re looking for someone who treats your pet like family, stays calm under pressure, and gives you genuine peace of mind while you’re away — I’d love to meet your dog. I voluntarily left my full time job so you have my undivided attention! I also work remote so my schedule is flexible and I’m very mobile! I treat your home and your pets with respect, kindness, compassion, and love. I’m a guest in your family’s home and would not do anything to jeopardize that relationship. At home, I make sure necessary doors and windows are closed and the space is clean tidy so no ingestion accidents happen. Before any outside activities, I make sure the temperature isn't too hot and can defer to inside enrichment activities if outside temps are dangerous. During walks and playtime I remain attentive to not only your dog's behavior but the external environment to ensure both our safety. I provide text and picture updates at an agreed upon cadence. In the event accidents happen, you will be notified by text and voice immediately and necessary safety protocols will be followed.

Rene did such a great job! This was my first time using Rover and first time having someone new in my home while I was away. Rene provided me with updates everyday, sent pictures of my fur babies, and made sure each of them had some time quality time. He do great with walking my dog and taking him on long walks when weather permitted! Rene also was so kind enough to clean up extra messes my dog made and always made sure to clean up after himself and tidy up before leaving. My dog is pretty energetic and Rene was able to build rapport with him easily and bond with him. He even stayed at my home as long as he could to keep my fur babies company since they were all experiencing separation anxiety while I was away. Definitely recommend his services!
