About: Hi! I'm so excited to meet you and your furry family members! 🐾 I've spent over six years working professionally with animals in both veterinary hospitals and pet care facilities, so caring for pets isn't just something I enjoy, it's what I've built my career around. I previously worked at VCA Animal Hospital and Wagly Pet Campus, where I gained experience with dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. From energetic puppies to senior dogs who need a slower pace, I'm comfortable adapting to each pet's unique needs. My background has given me extensive knowledge of animal behavior, pet safety, and recognizing when something isn't quite right. I understand how important routine, patience, and positive interactions are, and I always treat every pet with the same love and attention I'd give my own. In 2023, I lost my beloved cat to heart disease. He was my best friend, and losing him reminded me just how special the bond between people and their pets truly is. While nothing could ever replace him, caring for other animals has been incredibly healing for me. I genuinely love spending time with dogs, and being able to give them affection, exercise, and companionship is one of the most rewarding parts of my day. I know trusting someone with your pet is a big decision, and I don't take that responsibility lightly. I'll always treat your dog like family, keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages, and make sure every walk is safe, fun, and tailored to your dog's personality and energy level. Whether your pup loves long adventures, leisurely neighborhood strolls, or just wants a caring companion while you're away, I'd be honored to help. I can't wait to meet you and your best friend! I am a work-from-home mom and I schedule walks during the quiet parts of my day. I enjoy walking and being outside, and it’s so much better with a furry friend. I don’t plan to board any animals at this time in my home. This may change in the future, but not as of right now.
“Amanda is a wonderful, trustworthy person - I feel very comfortable knowing she will be my cats caretaker when I travel. Highly recommend Amanda for all your pets needs”
“Michele is a kind and caring drop-in cat sitter. She provided excellent care by understanding what was needed and being incredibly communicative. I couldn't have asked for a better person to entrust with the care of my cat and home.”
“My two cat babies and I are SO lucky to have found Bradey! She's not only good at her job, but she is also so detail oriented, compassionate, and communicative! I felt so at ease being thousands of miles away on vacation leaving my two babies with her. Even during a minor miscommunication mishap she was ON it to fix it immediately, and that she did. We would have her again and again! Thank you Bradey!!!”
About: Animals have always been a meaningful part of my life, and I truly believe they’re family members. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of caring for pets with different needs and personalities, including Sophie, one of my cats, who required daily insulin injections until she recovered. I also had a beloved Havapoo who lived a wonderful 16-year life filled with love and adventures. Today, I’m a proud cat parent, and my experiences have taught me the importance of patience, attentiveness, and understanding each pet as an individual. I’ll care for your pet with the same love, respect, and attention I give my own. I work from home and have a flexible schedule, allowing me to provide dependable care when your pet needs it most. Whether it’s a walk, drop-in visit, or extra playtime, I’ll treat your pet like a beloved family member and provide the love, attention, and care they deserve.🤗 I always meet your fur baby in advance and ask about their needs, quirks, and favorite things. If you have written or texted notes, I follow them closely — the more information, the better. I completely understand and don’t mind at all. My priority is making sure your fur child feels comfortable, happy, and safe at all times.

About: I truly treat every dog like family — I even call my friends’ and clients’ pups my “nieces and nephews.” Over the years, I’ve cared for a wide range of breeds, including golden retrievers, pugs, shibas, and shih tzus, each with their own unique personalities and needs. One thing I’m especially proud of is helping shy or anxious dogs feel more confident. With patience, structure, and lots of positive reinforcement, I’ve built strong, trusting relationships with pups who need a little extra love and reassurance. I always go above and beyond to make sure every dog in my care feels safe, comfortable, and adored. Whether it’s giving treats, playing in the park, keeping them engaged with fun activities, or tucking them in for the coziest nap — I make their time with me feel like a home-away-from-home. We’re able to provide 24/7 care, which is something we’re really proud of. I work from home on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, and even on the days I go into the office, I always come home at lunch to check in. My fiancé works from home full-time, so there’s always someone here to give your pup attention, comfort, and company. Caring for pets is a natural, happy part of our everyday life. I always stay close to the pets I’m caring for so I can quickly respond to their needs and make sure they feel safe, happy, and comfortable. I pay attention to their body language, and if a pet seems unsure or unhappy, I take the time to understand what they need and help them feel at ease. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow all house rules and routines exactly as instructed. I’m very respectful of both the home and the pet’s normal schedule, so everything feels familiar and stress-free for them.
“Wonderful pet sitter for my two English Cream Golden Retrievers. They absolutely love David! He was very friendly and caring with our pets and also very kind and considerate. I would definitely hire David again.”
About: Hi, I'm Evan! With nearly a decade of pet care experience and boundless enthusiasm for animals, I'm your go-to walker and sitter. After graduating college, I found joy in providing reliable and considerate care for pets of all sizes and personalities. I recently reached a milestone of 1500 five-star reviews on a popular dog walking app! It's hard to find someone trustworthy who can understand your fur baby's unique needs.

My weekend availability is more limited, but still feel free to ask! When I care for pets in clients' homes, I prefer having lots of information. Please tell me everything there is to know about your fur baby, so that I can help them be most comfortable. Such as... -their daily food and sleep schedule -toys and treats -favorite rituals -training commands and walking etiquette -any triggers or off-limits areas
About: Hi! I'm Debbie, and caring for animals has been my passion for most of my life. I began volunteering at a veterinary hospital as a teenager and was hired at just 16 years old. I pursued veterinary technology, passed the California Registered Veterinary Technician state board examination in 2011, and have spent nearly two decades working in small animal veterinary medicine. While I no longer maintain an active RVT license, I continue working in the veterinary field and use the knowledge and experience I've gained over the years every day. My background includes caring for puppies and kittens, healthy adult pets, senior pets, and animals with chronic medical conditions. I'm experienced with administering oral medications, eye and ear medications, injections, sub-q fluids, topical treatments, and providing attentive care to pets that need a little extra support. Animals have always been a huge part of my life beyond my career. I'm a proud Mom, wife, dog owner and chicken keeper, and I also have experience caring for parrots and other companion birds. I enjoy grooming my own dogs and have experience with routine grooming, including bathing, brushing, nail trims, and styling. In addition to companion animals, I'm comfortable caring for backyard flocks and many ranch and farm animals, understanding that each species has its own unique routines and needs. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to know your animals are safe, loved, and well cared for while you're away. I strive to keep pets comfortable, maintain their routines, and provide plenty of love, playtime, and companionship. I'll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing your furry (and feathered!) family members are in caring, experienced hands. Whether your pet needs a walk, a drop-in visit, medication, companionship, or care for your backyard flock or small farm, I'd be honored to care for them as if they were my own. Between being a Mom to older children/wife/part-time vet tech, my schedule allows me to fit in jobs to care for other's pets while they are going out of town for the day or longer. I will honor and follow your instructions to care for your pets as you wish. I also am big on sending pics via text with pupdates and for you to see that all is well.
About: Hello! I’m Oliver, a long-time local resident living right here in Lake Forest. As a mature and responsible pet owner, I have years of hands-on experience caring for dogs, including raising three wonderful dogs over the years—two of which were energetic black Labradors. I understand that pets are cherished members of your family, and leaving them can sometimes be stressful. My goal is to provide reliable, attentive, and loving care so you can have complete peace of mind while you're away. Whether it's stopping by for feeding, fresh water, playtime, or a comforting walk, I will treat your furry friends with the exact same patience and dedication I gave my own. I am reliable, detail-oriented, and genuinely happy to help families in our community. I look forward to meeting you and your wonderful pets! I have a completely flexible schedule with no fixed working hours, which gives me plenty of freedom to visit and care for your pets. Whether it's daytime, afternoons, or evenings, I am reliably available to drop by, feed, play, and make sure your furry friends are happy and well-cared for. Since I provide drop-in visits at your home, I prioritize your pet's safety and comfort in their own familiar environment. I am very careful with home security, making sure doors and gates are properly locked. I treat every home and pet with the utmost respect, and I will keep you updated with photos and messages during every visit so you always have peace of mind.
“I‘m very pleased with the drop in visit that Zhenni provided for my pups. We came to town for a wedding and Zhenni came to the hotel to drop in on my two puppies and take them potty. She followed my specific instructions and even went beyond. She was easy to communicate with and sent a follow-up report along with photos. If I‘m in the area again, and am in need of a pet sitter, she will be my first choice. Thank you, Zhenni.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs for more than 7 years, from puppy to senior dogs, including fostering dogs from shelter. I love spending time with them and get to know more about doggies every day. I’m working from home, so have plenty time to take care of your doggies. My husband and I split the dog daily routines, where he take them for a longer after work, and I take them for morning potty breaks. I have a front yard and a back dog run. within my community, there are dog parks nearby and lots of green spaces for dog walk and explore
About: Working with animals is rewarding in many ways. From an early age I have had the great opportunity to care for and pamper different pets, witnessing how they find joy and tranquility in my company. For this reason, I have worked as a pet sitter since my adolescence, being an animal lover. I love dedicating myself to taking care of their needs, from feeding them properly to providing them with a safe and comfortable environment in which they can function. I have much experience with dogs and cats I am also learned to take care of other animals because I love learning more about all animals. After work I have time in the afternoons and I love to keep doing what I like the most, if I have time I can help someone else with my experience and with an activity that I love to do. If the pet owner has a routine, I try to follow it so that the pet feels comfortable, if you do not have it I like to do activities and give it everything it needs to make the pet(s) feel comfortable with my care.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - El Toro
Amanda is amazing. She is very caring and considerate. Amanda was easy to work with, she was prepared and professional. Our cats were very well cared for thanks to her. I am so relieved to have found someone that gives my family the confidence that our fur babies are in the best of care.
Dawn is absolutely incredible. She was able to hunt down our very tricky cat and successfully give her the medication she needs. Pet sitters we've used in the past we're not able to do this. She let us know about a leaking pipe outside and was there to troubleshoot. We can't imagine traveling without her.
Annie was awesome! She booked me last minute and was wonderful to the kitties. She sends great photos and is very good at communicating. She even writes very detailed synopses of her visit, making you feel like you’re right there with her. I would absolutely book again.
Maggie was fantastic! We did a meet & greet and knew my cats would be in good hands with her right away! She was attentive and reliable throughout the whole sitting process and sent daily updates and photos for after every visit 😊 Would definitely recommend if you’re looking for a sitter in the area!
Parnian was absolutely amazing with Leyli! From the second Leyli saw her, she immediately loved her and felt comfortable around her, which made me feel so much better about being away. Parnian took such great care of her and gave her lots of attention, playtime, cuddles, and love. She was very caring, responsible, and kept me updated with photos and videos, which I really appreciated. It was clear that Leyli was happy and comfortable with her the entire time. I’m so grateful to have found someone I can trust with Leyli, and I would absolutely book with Parnian again. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a kind and trustworthy cat sitter! ❤️🐱
Hoai did a wonderful job caring for our two cats! We went away for a week and we really appreciated the updates that she provided each day, which included photos and videos. She was also was great about asking us questions about the cats or their supplies to ensure they were receiving the very best care. The clear communication made us feel confident that the cats were in good hands. This was our first time using Rover and we would definitely book with Hoai again!
This was our second extended booking with Hannah, and once again she was great. She was so patient and understanding with my more challenging, aggressive cat while also giving my sweet, easygoing cat plenty of love and attention. It’s not easy finding someone who can confidently handle both, and it gave me so much peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. She also took great care of our home and left everything clean and tidy. I highly recommend her, especially if you have a pet that needs a little extra patience or understanding.
Thank you for always making me feel so comfortable that Jax is taken care of no matter if it’s a check-in or a long trip. Thank you for always meeting him where he is where he wants to be playful that day or whether he’s made a mess in front of his box. I appreciate it all.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
