About: Have had animals my whole life and grew up on a ranch and currently I am a dog mom to a super big friendly 110 pound Anatolian Shepherd. I am great with reactive dogs and larger breeds as well as small breeds. As a new mom, I am currently trying to walk as much as possible, and would love to take all of your furbabies on walks. I am available weekdays and weekends and have an extremely flexible schedule, it would be my pleasure to treat your fur baby to some fresh California air! I live in a large three-story loft that has plenty of roaming space with my super friendly dog named blue. We have immediate outdoor access for potty time.
About: I grew up with dogs and currently have 2 cats. One of my cats is a senior (almost 20 years old) so I do have experience caring for a senior pet. I love animals and will treat yours as my own! I would prefer dogs who are kid friendly. About this sitter: My name is Tessa and I'm a stay-at-home mom of 3. I love animals and have 2 cats myself! I would love to make your dog a part of our family for the day or longer! Regarding my cats: I am able to keep my cats separate from your dog, if you are concerned about that. I think it’s best to keep them separate to avoid any issues. I put my cats in my primary bedroom upstairs along with all their stuff and they are perfectly fine! But if your dog is cat friendly, I don’t mind letting them interact a bit. My senior cat is just a little freaked out by high energy dogs but she calms down after a bit. My younger cat is probably more open to dogs, she’s very friendly and mellow. Either way, I’m happy to accommodate! I drop my 3 kids off at school Monday-Friday and I am done with that around 8:30am. I pick up my youngest at 1:40 and my middle child at 3pm. So I will have about 4 hours each day until pick up my youngest. I am also available most weekends. Just message me and will do my best to accommodate your schedule. We live in a 4 bedroom condo and I have a fenced in patio and plenty of walking space throughout my neighborhood. Your dogs will feel safe and right at home! I will also make sure that your dogs are safe and cared your dog is in my home!

“Samantha did a great job dog sitting for our mini Aussie at her home. She took Lila on frequent walks and sent pictures throughout the day to let us know our girl was doing great. Samantha was flexible with hours and worked with us to schedule drop offs and pick ups that worked for both of us. Could tell Samantha was very affectionate and provided ample attention. Would recommend her to anyone looking for a person to care for their precious dog.”

“Candi was really nice and kind. She took wonderful care of our dog, sent us lots of pictures the whole day. I would definitely recommend her and book again next time we need it!”

“It was our first time using Rover. Our fur baby is only 2 months. He’s not potty trained and never been outside our house with strangers. Holly was very patient and sweet to him. She was very communicative and sent updates and pictures. She went above and beyond taking him out, bathing him, giving him treats and cuddling him since that’s all he’s used to at home. She was also flexible with us and accepted our reservation the night before. We will definitively reach out to Holly again when we need someone to care for Oreo.”

“Cheryl was great and gave many updates throughout the day! Our dog Churro looks like he had a blast playing with Cheryl’s dogs in her yard in all the pictures she sent. Will definitely be using her again for any future dog sitting needs!”

“Carolina is without a doubt the best person to leave your cherished pet with. She will answer all your questions promply. The needs for your pet will be properly taken care of. My little girl Emma was treated so well, when I drove off Emma wimpered. You can trust Carolina, she is the best.”

About: I’ve grown up rescuing kittens from the streets and healing them to health. I have two healthy cats at home that I take care of every day. They are fully vaccines and healthy. I have a passion for cats, so I am always doing research to get a better understanding of how they may think. I'm currently working full-time from home, so I have plenty of time to take care of pets. I get many breaks during my working hours. I love my two cats, I never discipline them by yelling. They are allowed on the furniture and have a tree house to play in and many toys all throughout the home. I work from home so I'm always around and I rarely go out. I like being home. I also get breaks to go out and do any drop ins. I live in a three bedroom apartment. There is one bedroom dedicated as my cat room, which has a cat house, scratch post, wooden home and many toys and tunnels for play. I have toys for them everywhere and constantly buying new toys. My cats love the their playroom. Right outside the window is a tree where some birds and squirrels pass, they love to lay on the hammock and look at the window.
“Reena is so sweet and she treated my dog like her own. Whenever I left my dog with someone else in the past I could tell that he was unhappy but not this time. He had so much fun at Reena’s. She also make sure to update you frequently and send lots of pics. Will definitely book with her again.”

About: I love dogs of all ages and breeds, I even love cats, snakes, and yes I'll even feed your fish! Animals are sometimes better than people so I understand how much love someone can have for them which means it's very important that I take care of your loved one as if they were my own. Full with love and adventure or cuddles! currently working part-time in the evening three times a week so I have plenty of time to fulfill all your dog sitting or walking or checking in needs. My apartment is cozy next to a big outdoor mall so it's a great place to go on walks. It was cozy for any pet to enjoy my company.
“Angela provided a lovely second home for our dog. She kept him comfortable and active while taking care of all his needs. We felt very confident and at ease that our dog was in good hands. She sent many updates throughout the day to show how much fun Bruno was having. I will definitely be reaching out to her in the future.”

About: I’ve taken care of both dogs and cats since I was about 10 years old. I’ve volunteered with various animal shelters and nonprofit dog/cat rescues, where I’ve gained extensive experience and knowledge in walking, socializing, and caring for all kinds of dogs and cats. I'm currently available full time! I am free most weekdays and weekends, and usually require about a day or half a days notice to schedule any care. I focus on gentle & loving care. I make sure to follow each pets routine closely, so they feel comfortable and safe. Whether we’re snuggling, exploring the outside, or keeping quiet inside, I treat every animal as if they are my own family.
Fairhaven dog parents share their Rover experiences
Carol is super attentive, sent us pictures throughout the day and was understanding of us running late for pickup. Our puppy loved spending time with her. Hopefully she’s available for future trips to DisneyLand! It’s nice to have someone you can trust with your beloved pet and Carol is that someone.

We are beyond shocked at how kind and accommodating Robyn and Jovanny are. We needed a pet sitter very last minute and they went above and beyond to help us. They took great care of our two 50-70lbs dogs all day while we were out at Disneyland. Would 100% recommend.

We had a great experience with Nancy and Rick! We dropped Freddie off early in the morning and picked him up mid-afternoon, and he came home so happy (and tired, which says everything 😅). They sent photos and updates throughout the day, which gave us so much peace of mind. Freddie is still a high-energy puppy, and they were so patient and sweet with him — walks and all. We’re very grateful and glad that we found someone we can trust with our pup. We’d definitely book with them again in the future!

Dalton and Mariela were great to work with. They went out of their way to meet with my puppy, Mel, before we dropped him off with them for the first time. They sent me photos throughout the day, and Mel seemed very happy when I picked him up. It’s nice to have someone kind and caring to leave your pup with when you’re gone for this day. These are definitely great people for the job! Thank you!
Yeting is an excellent dog sitter. She did an excellent job with my dog. She made my dog feel loved and less anxious. She made sure he had a good time throughout the day. I was grateful for her time and attention to my dog. I highly recommend that anyone have her! I am extremely fortunate that I chose her.

Erik is fantastic!! He helped me out in a pinch when my dog with terrible separation anxiety also had a cough and couldn’t be around other dogs. He is very responsive and flexible, and a chill human that clearly helps my doggo chill out. I am so grateful to have someone reliable and responsive who gives me peace of mind while I work some long days. Will definitely book again with him soon! Also, his children are adorable and so kind to my little fur baby :).
