“Evelyn was nothing but wonderful. She took great care of our home but most importantly of our dog Riley. Frequent updates and pictures throughout the stay made our trip away more enjoyable. We hope for more days with Evelyn in the future! 🥰”
2. Justine M.
“Justine was great! Very responsive, kept us updated the whole time with pics and text, flexible with pick up & drop off (esp considering our flight home was delayed), and was even kind enough to do a meet up beforehand to make sure our pup was comfortable while we were gone.”
3. Alexandra K.
“Alex arrived early, and was very loving and compassionate with Ivory. In fact Ivory had a wonderful time. Definitely will use Alex again in fact probably again this week lol really appreciate her commitment and compassion for animals.”
4. Dee N.
“Another great experience with Dee - our dogs were well taken care of and so was our house! We really appreciated the quick communication, updates and photos - especially when one of our pups wasn't feeling so well, she let us know right away and answered all our tons of questions (all turned out to be just fine in the end - but we really appreciate the transparency!). When you ask Dee to watch your pets, know that you are in good hands! Thanks again!”

9. Leo H.
“We went out of town for a few days and had Leo house sit and watch our two pups. We loved the daily updates and the dogs seemed very happy when we got home. We really appreciated Leo taking care of our home and our dogs while we were away and would definitely hire him again.”
10. Troy D.
“Troy did a fantastic job housesitting and taking care of our two dogs. This was one of my first times using Rover, so I was a little nervous inviting a stranger into our home for a week, but Troy put me as ease with his responsiveness and communication. He sent daily recaps with pictures and videos and left our house as clean as it was when we left. The dogs loved him and were looking around the house for him after he left. We will definitely book Troy again next time we travel.”
11. Arlett C.
“Vanessa did a fantastic job taking care of my cat and dog! She was very communicative each day, sending pictures, answering questions, and providing updates. She is a great option for your pet care needs and will be my go to rover going forward! Thanks Vanessa!”
12. Francine Z.
“Francine was great! She communicated with me every morning and evening just like I requested. My puppy is a handful and she managed him very well! Seems like they had a time together. She also took very good care of my cat. My apartment was very clean when i got home! I would definitely recommend Francine!”
13. Luis G.
“My pups had so much fun with Luis. He kept me constantly updated with pics and happenings. He also left the house clean. I was lucky to find him.”
14. Steven D.
“Steven D. has cared for my pets a number of times and I always return home to find them happy and can tell they’ve been cared for with love and concern. In addition, I’ve known him for many years and he comes from a family that cherished their own pets like family-just as my family does. The home is neat and tidy and there is never a thing out of place. Pet water bowls are filled, litter boxes are scooped clean. I’ve never had even the slightest disappointment. I’m certain of his devotion to furry friends…..both his own and mine!”
15. Audrey P.
“Audrey was a godsend this trip. Not only did she send daily updates but when our flights were delayed and inevitably canceled, she jumped in to help ensure our furry family had continuity of care. I cannot say enough good things about our experiences with Audrey.”
16. Alexis R.
About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was a kid because my mom is a French bulldog breeder/Nurse ! I grew up with cats , dogs , fish , turtles and birds 🫶🏼 I work part time at night but my work schedule is really flexible ! So I’d be more than happy to watch your baby and take care of it ! Love to know any specifics to better watch your fur baby while you’re away , and treat it like my own! Whether that be if they have a favorite toy , need a certain medicine at a certain time ! Just let me know
17. Jason B.
“I have known Jay for over a decade and can attest that he is a trustworthy animal caretaker and would be an excellent choice for a Rover pet sitter. He has taken care of my cat on many many many occasions, and I also know that his own cat and dog are well cared for. I’m a veterinarian and I would absolutely trust Jay with my own pets and my patients. He is very responsible and quick to seek medical attention for his animals when needed. Any pet owner should be happy to know that Jay is looking out for their pet.”
18. Carolyn Q.
“We love Carolyn and would absolutely recommend her! We’ve used Carolyn for both drop-in visits and longer-term overnight stays. We first discovered Carolyn we had an older, very senior, frail terrier who required much care and supervision. That terrier has (sadly) now passed. But we have two rescued adult terriers, one of whom is a timid, anxious boy. Carolyn has been so good with all of our dogs, even the high maintenance senior and my nervous boy. I’m not sure how Carolyn got the anxious one to warm up to her instantly, but he just had a lovely weekend spent mainly on her lap. Carolyn is both super trust-worthy and super good with all types of dogs. She is our favorite dog-sitter in the valley!!”
19. Aaron G.
“House looked really clean when he was done. My dog was very clearly tired and seemed really happy.”

About: Living in beautiful San Diego with my wife and son, I continue to provide exceptional care for pets, ensuring they feel at home while their owners are away. The approach is simple: shower pets with all the love and attention they need, just like we would with our own furry family members. What sets us apart is our family-oriented approach to pet sitting. With my wife and son as my partners in care, we create a warm and welcoming environment for pets, making them feel like part of our family. Our goal is to provide a loving and comfortable experience for pets, giving them the attention and care they deserve. Together, we offer a unique blend of experience, compassion, and dedication that ensures pets are happy and content in our care. As a self-employed individual working from home, my daily and weekly routine is flexible, allowing me to dedicate ample time to pet care. I prioritize the well-being of our furry friends, ensuring they receive the love and attention they deserve. Pet care routine is woven seamlessly daily, with scheduled feeding and playtime. Balancing pet care with my responsibilities to my son, wife, and art is a top priority. I have structured the daily routine to accommodate the needs of the dogs while also allowing time for work and family activities. Whether it's taking breaks throughout the day for a quick walk or spending quality time with our pets in the evening, I make sure they are well cared for and feel like part of the family. In my home, pets are treated like family and have full access to our amazing yard. They can lounge in the sun, explore the garden, or play to their heart's content in our secure outdoor space. Inside, they have a cozy spot to rest and plenty of toys to keep them entertained. Routine is tailored to each dog's needs and may include regular feeding times, outdoor play sessions, and lots of love and attention. When caring for pets in a client's home, I aim to create a comfortable and enjoyable experience for them. I make use of any outdoor space available, whether it's a backyard, patio, or garden, to ensure pets have the opportunity to get fresh air and exercise. Routine is customized based on each dog's needs and may include outdoor playtime and lots of interaction to keep them happy and engaged. We also ensure their indoor space is clean, cozy, and secure, so they feel right at home while their owners are away.
