“We were grateful to have Lauren come and do full day sits for our two cats. She was excellent with communication prior and during our entire trip away, and did a wonderful job with our kitties. Thanks Lauren!”
“Kim was an amazing house sitter. She was very communicative, took great care of the pets, and left my house squeaky clean. I could tell from the photos she sent that my pups were very comfortable and relaxed with her. 12/10!”
“I am Brooke’s first client with Rover and I definitely won’t be her last! She was a delight to have stay in my house with my three dogs. She took especially amazing care of my 16 year old who is blind and mostly deaf and still managed played all day with our other 2 pups. I received many photos and videos without prompt. We will definitely be asking Brooke back to help us out when we travel. Highly recommend her!”
“Stephanie was a great cat sitter. She really helped us out when another Rover sitter canceled and it was getting closer to our departure. She responded immediately and we set up a meet and greet. All went well and we booked her that day. I didn't manage my time effectively and ended up leaving a small note about staying at our apartment and our cat Meka. No problem, we were able to communicate through text and she just knew what to do anyway. She sent pictures every morning and also extra ones with cute poses. I could see Meka had made a new friend. Our plane got in late and she stayed to make sure the cat was feed. Everything was in order and our plants were even taken care of. Don't hesitate book Stephanie, we would again.”
“Janeth was extremely attentive and kind. She frequently sent pictures and let me know if she was running low on anything for the pups. I would definitely love to work with her in the future!”
“Madeline was amazing and took really great care of our pups and kitty, providing regular updates and pictures. We had such peace of mind while we were away and we owe it all to her. She is the best and we look forward to working with her in the future!”
“Tanya was great! Our high-maintenance fur baby who suffers from FOMO and separation anxiety was well-taken care of while we were out of town. Tanya kept us up-to-date with texts, pictures and videos and always asked for clarification as needed. She also took care of our place and went the extra mile before leaving by taking care of anything she used. Highly recommend her for your pet-sitting needs!”
“Yoo Jee is the best! She took excellent care of our pets and home! One of our bathrooms flooded unfortunately while we were gone and she took care of everything. We will definitely hire her again.”
“Sanaz is absolutely wonderful! Milo and especially Atlas adore her! They snuggle right up and are completely attached whenever she’s around. It’s clear how much love and comfort she brings them. I’ve already booked her again! She is truly wonderful.”
“Taylor took great care of my two chihuahuas and home while my husband and me were gone for the holidays. We so appreciated her availability on Christmas! The dogs seemed happy when we returned and the house was in good order.”
“Best dog/house sitter we have ever had. Hugo is the kindest man and so gentle with our rescue pups. He sent us multiple videos and photos daily and was always in touch. We returned home to our house in impeccable condition. Our dogs clearly did not miss us as they were so well cared for!”
“Aubrey and Prarana are fantastic! Very responsive, they communicate regularly while sitting with pictures and detailed reports. We have a puppy who needs a lot of play and attention - Aubrey seems to really enjoy working with him! We’ve used them twice for overnights and I’m so relieved to have found reliable people who truly love animals to stay in my home. 10/10 recommend!”
About: Hi, I’m Sofia—I’m currently working from home as a graphic designer. I’m a life-long dog owner with years of experience caring for pets of all ages and personalities. I’m patient, reliable, and great with shy or cautious animals. I’ll make sure your furry (or feathered!) friend feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Bonus—I’m also an illustrator, so let me know and I can draw your pet as a little keepsake! I’m currently working part-time and remotely so I have a flexible schedule to be there for your pets! I’m happy to accommodate and discuss how I can be of service. I follow your home’s rules and your pet’s care instructions closely to make sure they feel safe and you feel confident. I always double-check gates, locks, and am extra careful when opening doors. I keep a close eye on curious noses and paws—whether that means keeping terriers out of the trash or making sure no one snacks on mystery items during walks. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities!
“Erika was wonderful! She took such good care of my girl (Rosie - a golden doodle)...took her on walks, watched movies with her (my dog loves to cuddle and watch tv), played with her and more. Erika stayed at my house for five days while we were away on vacation and kept it clean and nice - even washed sheets and towels (something extra!). Erika is responsible and dependable and am booking her for a lot more assignments! Thank you, Erika!”
“Bianca was awesome and a great pup sitter while we were gone. She gave us regular updates and photos. We felt very comfortable leaving our dog with her. Will book again with her.”
About: I’ve been taking care of pets since I was a kid. Many of my family friends have asked me to care for their pets when they are away. I am very good at keeping their daily routines and walk them as much as the owner requests. I have a very open schedule after finishing my degree so i could easily fit them into my daily routine. If I have a busy day I make it a priority to make sure the dog is cared for and gets enough attention. I usually try to be in the same room as the pets I care for. Constantly checking their water bowls that they are full and making sure the fur baby is getting lots of love and attention!
“Celeste is terrific! You can tell she really loves dogs. She took care of our two dogs in our home over Thanksgiving, and sent photos each day. Celeste is great at communication and we had no problems whatsoever. We will definitely book Celeste the next time we go out of town.”
About: I have been caring for pets and kids my whole life, but have only been paid for it the last ten years! I love to hike and explore nature and it’s always more fun with a furry friend!! I work seasonally as a cook across the country, but my parents live LA, I’m staying with them until the winter and would love to spend my time with your best friends while I’m here!! I’m very good at following directions and believe you know how to care for your pets best! I always try to maintain a safe and fun vibe to make you and your little friends as comfortable as possible.

Sofia F.
“I have known Sofia for several years now and I hire her consistently for house sitting and pet care needs. She is like one of the family! Her calm and caring demeanor are a perfect fit for my skittish chickens. Sofia gives me great peace of mind knowing that my chickens are safe, well fed, given plenty of water and their eggs are being collected daily. She keeps me posted on how my hens and dog are doing. My dog is given plenty of snuggle time, which is his favorite, lots of walks and most importantly lots of love! I know my home is being well cared for as she is very respectful of my property. I highly recommend Sofia for any pet-care needs, always a fantastic experience working with her, and the peace of mind while away is priceless.”

Talia H.
“Tali was raised with Golden Retrievers her whole life, and as such she loves dogs. She still cares for our dog on occasions, and it is always with love and care. She is always watching youtube or tiktok videos of pets but dogs in particular and forwarding us the exceptional cute ones. I think Tali will be just as loving with anybody's pet, as she seems to have almost excessive empathy for these animals.”
