About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats since I was 8 years old and have hands-on experience with many breeds and sizes. I’ve provided pet sitting for neighbors, friends, and family, including puppies, senior pets, and pets needing medication. I love taking dogs on daily walks to keep them active and happy and giving them plenty of attention while their owners are away. Bathing and basic grooming are no problem—I treat every pet as if they were my own. My schedule is completely open right now, which means I can provide flexible care that fits your pet’s needs. Whether you need daily dog walking, drop-in visits, or overnight pet sitting, I can adjust to morning, afternoon, or evening routines. I’m also available for last-minute bookings, so you can trust that your pets will be cared for even on short notice. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I make sure to follow your pet’s routine closely so they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I take the time to learn each pet’s personality and provide plenty of love and reassurance. You can count on me to respect your home, keep things tidy, and send regular updates so you have peace of mind knowing your furry family members are happy and cared for.
About: I’m the friend who always gets the "can you watch my dog?" call because I’ve been around pups of all shapes and sizes since I was five. That lifetime of experience means I’m just as comfortable keeping up with a rambunctious puppy as I am providing a calm, gentle environment for a sweet senior who needs a little extra patience. Pet care fits perfectly into my active lifestyle. My days already revolve around long walks and staying moving, so your pup becomes my dedicated plus-one for every adventure. My schedule is flexible, and when I’m with your pet, they are my main priority—I treat their routine with the same care and focus I give my own. I treat your home and your pet with the same respect I’d want for my own. Whether we're hanging out at my place or yours, I focus on creating a secure, "paws-on" environment where routines are followed strictly so your pet feels safe. I’m all about clear updates and total transparency, so you can relax knowing they’re in good, experienced hands.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 11 years old—both my own and those of friends and family. I grew up with a high-energy Jack Russell mix, so I’m no stranger to playful pups who love to move. I genuinely love all animals and have a deep appreciation for their unique personalities. I’m a recent graduate from UC Irvine and currently have a flexible schedule as I search for full-time opportunities. That means I have plenty of time to care for your dog or cat—and I’d love to spend it keeping your pet happy and active! I prioritize your pet’s safety and comfort during every walk or visit. Whether at home or in a nearby park, I always make sure your pet is having fun while staying safe. I also enjoy learning about pet behavior and regularly watch dog training and grooming videos to stay informed. I’ve been around both energetic and fluffy pets all my life!

“From the moment we met, it was clear how kind, attentive, and experienced Jared is with animals. I got regular updates, photos, and messages, which really reassured me that my dog was happy and well cared for. When I came back, my dog was relaxed and clearly had been treated with lots of love and attention. I would absolutely recommend Jared to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter. I’ll definitely be booking with him again!”

“Vivian is the sweetest person I’ve ever met! She was able to get my grumpy old man to warm up to her which isn’t common! She’s super responsible and reliable I’m definitely going to book again🩷”

About: I am currently an RVT (registered veterinary technician) and have been for 3 years. I know first hand out it feels to trust your fur babies with someone else. Growing up we always had dogs in our home and I have been around them my whole life. Walks, morning and afternoon play time, endless hours of tug-o-war and chase, reconstructing stuffed animals because they "just had to get the squeaky toy out," I've been there and I've seen it all. As for the RVT side of things, first aid and understanding what a pet is going through is something that is not new to me. I have seen situations turn from great to critical in matter if seconds and know the first steps on what to do in those times. I can assure you, your pet will be in good hands. I am in the process of going to human nursing school as it is my dream to help others. Hours may vary of times I will be at your home due to crazy working schedule, but I will be there for overnight stays and mornings and evenings. I am currently in the process of moving and have spare time on my hands as I am in-between jobs. I worked as an RVT for 3 years along with being a cocktail waitress and am currently only a cocktail waitress when I am needed. I am comfortable staying at others homes for the sake of their pets. Daily walks, depending on pets schedule, morning and evening walks. Am comfortable with multiple dogs
“Deena was extremely communicative and sent us so many photos of our dog, Maggie, while we were away. We felt very safe knowing Maggie was in her care! We will absolutely be booking again!”

About: I’ve had dogs in my life for over 10 years and have experience caring for cats as well. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, bathing, and providing daily companionship. Pets have always been a central part of my life, and I treat every animal in my care as if they were my own. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine — I’m available full-time on weekdays, which means your pets will never be left alone for long. I have plenty of time to give them the attention, exercise, and love they deserve throughout the day. I create a calm, safe environment for every pet in my care. I follow each owner’s instructions closely, maintain consistent feeding and walk schedules, and provide regular updates with photos so you always know how your pet is doing. Your pet’s comfort and safety is always my top priority.
“We loved Alicia. Freya was very happy and enjoyed her time. How do I know? From pictures and how happy she was when I got home. Alicia understood to not be put off by her initial barking and got to know Freya at her pace and after the initial meeting, Freya warmed right up. I felt confident about Alicia and didn't worry at all while I was gone. Would definitely book her again.”

“Sarah took such great care of our senior dog and followed all the instructions precisely! She also left our house spotless, and you honestly couldn’t tell someone was staying at our place. Sarah was also quick to respond and send regular updates to us. She also did things around the house like taking in our trash bins and watering our garden. I would highly recommend her and plan to booking her the next time we go out of town.”

“Suzanne took extremely good care of our cats. She provided excellent communication and cleaned up what was needed. I would love to have her care four my cats and home in the future. The Gracias”

About: Take $20 off your first booking! Code: TOMMYT33940 I've grown up with pets all my life. I've lived with dogs since I was 6 and took in a cat and dog of my own for 7 years after college. I can handle any dog big or small, timid, excited, etc. I have many dog parks in my area if that's a part of your dogs routine. I work from home, so I have a very flexible schedule most of the week and can tend to their specific needs. The only time I am gone is to go to the store for food (short errands). I have a walled off backyard for pets to safely roam around. I'm available for walking, sitting, drop-ins, etc. Happy to help in any way! There are no current pets in the home of your pet has any issues with other animals.
“Abigail took great care of our pets Jenna and Celly while house sitting. She sent us photos every day, and left the place nice and clean. She was very respectful and we felt our pets were well cared for! I would recommend her to a friend. Thanks Abigail!”

“Alexa was a great communicator! She was kind and professional making sure to atttend to all Dusts needs. I really appreciate her also coming on short notice to house sit. I thought I would be stuck with bad rovers on a short timeframe but she was excellent”

“So lucky to have found Kathy through Rover, she was an exceptional sitter for our two dogs. Our boys are leash reactive so we are always a little anxious to leave them under just anyone’s care, but with Kathy we’ve never felt more at ease. Great communicator and responsive, would definitely book her again if we can!”

“Robyn was an amazing house sitter. She took excellent care of our pets and our space. I can not recommend her highly enough. We will be utilizing her in the future when she is in town.”

“Ava is FANTASTIC!! This was the first time we had someone stay in our home for our two little pups and we were hesitant at first, but upon meeting Ava she put us at ease immediately. I’m pretty sure the dogs missed her when we came back home! She is super sweet, kind, respectful and trustworthy. Highly recommend and will definitely be rebooking on our next trip!”

Katya is wonderful. She was so attentive to my pups. One of my dogs has possible kidney disease and needs to go out to pee often. Katya was so patient and attentive in taking care of him. She left my house in great shape - and she kept me filled in with photos and texts all the time. Superb!

We loved Alicia. Freya was very happy and enjoyed her time. How do I know? From pictures and how happy she was when I got home. Alicia understood to not be put off by her initial barking and got to know Freya at her pace and after the initial meeting, Freya warmed right up. I felt confident about Alicia and didn't worry at all while I was gone. Would definitely book her again.

Wow--we feel really fortunate to have found Brynn, and hope she'll be our regular doggie sitter. We came home from a quick one-night trip, and found our dogs so relaxed and happy. And the house was exceptionally clean and cared for. I know, it's only one night! But you'd be surprised. Brynn is also a very sweet lady, and a great communicator too.

5 stars isn’t enough for Sabrina! She is reliable, thoughtful, communicative, and always goes the extra mile. My dog loves her and is so relaxed and happy with her. She goes above and beyond with updates, keeps everything so clean, and truly treats my dog like her own. I always feel completely at ease when Sabrina is watching her. Highly recommend!

Heather was so amazing with Milo while house sitting! Very reliable and communicative throughout the weekend. She took Milo to the dog park in our complex everyday to get his energy out and followed all our instructions carefully! Milo can’t wait to see her again :)
