“Taylor is amazing! She has taken great care of our three shih tzus. She sends timely updates and photos and we feel great knowing we have a reliable and caring person nearby to watch our babies when we are gone. Thanks Taylor!”

About: I grew up caring for dogs and have two of my own, Ruby and Hazel, who taught me a lot about patience, routine, and understanding different personalities. Because of them, I’m comfortable with everything from daily walks to managing feeding schedules, giving plenty of playtime, and keeping a calm, safe environment. I’m used to working with both puppies and older dogs who may need a little extra support. I pay close attention to each dog’s needs and habits so owners feel confident that their pets are understood and cared for. What sets me apart is the level of communication and care I provide. I always keep owners updated, share photos, and make sure every dog feels comfortable, happy, and loved while you are away. Pet care is already part of my daily routine because I care for my two dogs, Ruby and Hazel. I’m used to morning and evening walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and giving them lots of attention throughout the day. Adding walks or drop-ins fits naturally into my schedule, and I make sure I have enough time set aside so every dog gets proper care without feeling rushed. On a weekly basis, I plan around the pets I’m responsible for, whether that means regular walks, check-ins, or longer stays. I’m consistent, reliable, and comfortable building a routine that keeps each dog happy and supported. When I’m caring for pets in my home, I focus on keeping them comfortable and safe. I follow their usual routines for feeding, walks, playtime, and rest so they feel at ease. I keep a clean space, monitor them closely, and make sure they get plenty of attention and affection, just like Ruby and Hazel do every day. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I always respect the owner’s rules and the dog’s normal routine. I make sure feeding times, walk schedules, and any training habits stay consistent. I give regular updates, and make sure the dog feels secure in a familiar environment. My goal in both settings is to keep each pet happy, calm, and cared for while giving owners peace of mind.

About: Hi! My name is Gayane, and animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I currently share my home with two wonderful rescue cats, and throughout my life I have cared for both cats and dogs of all ages and personalities. Beyond caring for my own pets, I have experience fostering, rehabilitating, and helping homeless and abandoned animals find safe and loving homes. I understand that every pet is unique and deserves patience, kindness, and individual attention. Whether your pet needs a fun walk, playtime, companionship, or simply someone reliable to care for them while you're away, I will treat them with the same love and care I give my own animals. As a pet parent myself, I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your furry family member. My goal is to make both you and your pet feel comfortable, safe, and happy. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! Pet care is already a natural part of my daily routine. As a stay-at-home mom, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets I care for. My own rescue cats are part of my everyday life, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. Whether it's dog walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, or simply providing companionship, I can easily incorporate pet care into my day and ensure that every pet receives the attention, affection, and consistency they deserve. I believe pets are happiest when their routines are respected and they feel safe and comfortable. When caring for pets in a client's home, I follow all instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walks, medication (if needed), playtime, and any special routines or preferences. I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, affection, and supervision while their owners are away. I also provide regular updates and photos so pet parents can feel confident that their furry family members are doing well. Having cared for rescue animals and foster pets, I understand that every animal has a unique personality and comfort level. I always take the time to build trust and make sure each pet feels secure, loved, and well cared for.
“Daly was incredible. My family and I were out of country for 2 weeks on vacation. We had never left our dog with anyone before and we were very nervous about it. Daly is very sweet and confident around us and our dog. Our dog was 1year and very high energy at times, but Daly was un-phased by the challenge. She has a lot of experience around animals and it shows. Being on complete opposite times zones was challenging, but Daly sent video, photos, updates and questions along the way to make sure we were informed about our dog everyday. It was absolutely perfect. I have no concerns about recommending her to friends and family and she will definitely be our dog’s go-to caregiver in the future!”

“Eve is wonderful with my cats, I always feel so much better knowing shes paying attention and caring for my cats. Eves respect towards my home and animals, open communication, availability, and flexibility keeps me coming back every time we're out of town.”


About: Hello! We are a couple living in south OC. Having both grown up with dogs our entire lives, we both have a sense of purpose in caring for pets. We have raised both small dogs like Shih-tzus to big dogs like Australian Shepherds and Golden Retrievers. Now offering petsitting and care for various ages, sizes, and breeds. We currently have a high energy dog and are used to the exercise and care they require, so rest assured your dog will be satisfied! My girlfriend works from home so she would be doing most of the walks and dog parks visits. I am free on weekends. We can arrange anything from simple walks to hikes. DM us to schedule! We currently have a 2.5 year old Australian Shepherd Meeko, who loves to play and is well-socialized. Our apartment complex has a small private park area but we take him to various fenced-in dog parks during the week to ensure he has enough playtime and exercise. On the weekends we sometimes take him on an hike or go to the beach. Our dogs will have a great time being new friends if that is what you wish! We can also do separate walks if that’s what you prefer.
“Ilana did an amazing job taking care of our dog. She was on time, followed all instructions, and communicated well. Before we left, she made sure to come by our house to meet the dog, take him for a walk, and really get to know him and our needs. While we were gone, we always knew what was happening as she communicated so effectively. She is the next best thing to having us home! 5 Stars - we will use Ilana again!”

“I have Ailen scheduled for recurring drop-in visits four days a week while I work 12-hour shifts as a nurse, and I couldn’t be happier. She is incredibly communicative, always punctual, and consistently goes above and beyond. I really appreciate how much time and care she gives my dog, and she even takes a moment to say hi to my cats, which means a lot. She is professional, trustworthy, and truly reliable. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for exceptional pet care.”

“Michael has a lot of experience with larger dogs. We were kind of worried if our dog will like him but it was love at first sight! He handled him so well. We are so glad to find him!!”
“We and our dog Eddy are so lucky to have had Alyssa dog sit for us. Alyssa became a trusted part of our family and we are very appreciative of her professionalism and obvious love for our dog Eddy. Communication was awesome. We knew Eddy was being fed, walked, and loved. Alyssa went above and beyond and is welcome in our house anytime because we consider her part of our family now.”


“Anu checked in on my dog multiple times for a few days. She was so sweet to him and made sure he had everything he needed. Her updates to me were detailed with a lot of great photos that ensured me my dog was in great hands! Will definitely be booking with her again!”

“We could not be happier we found Camille to take care of our babies while we’re away. She cares for and loves them as if they are her own, which gives us great peace of mind when we need to leave them. We will absolutely be repeat customers again & again ❤️”

“Kayla was great, she was able to give my cat his medicine with no issues. He is normally very shy but he would come out to say hello to her. Would definitely use her again!”

About: Dogs have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up with German Shepherds, a Cocker Spaniel, and a mixed-breed dog. Later, when I started my own family, we welcomed Fiera, our Labrador Retriever. She grew up alongside my children—they were like siblings and partners in crime. If you’ve ever had a Lab, you know exactly what I mean. 😁 When Fiera was about five years old, Glitch, our little Shihpoo, joined the family. Fiera crossed the Rainbow Bridge at 13, and we still miss her every day. 💗 Making your pup feel safe and cared for is my priority. If your dog isn’t acting like themselves, isn’t eating normally, or just seems “off,” I’ll notice and I’ll let you know. I’m comfortable following detailed instructions, whether it’s feeding routines, walks, medications, or special care. I have experience giving oral medications, eye and ear medications, topical treatments, and subcutaneous injections when prescribed by a veterinarian. When I’m caring for your dog, I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages. While you’re away, I’m also happy to bring in mail and packages, water indoor or outdoor plants, rotate lights if requested, and help keep your home looking lived-in. Just let me know what you need, and I’ll do my best to help. I’m currently completing professional training from home, so I spend most of my day at home. This allows me to provide consistent supervision, frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, and lots of companionship for the pets in my care. Our home is shared with our small dog, Glitch, and our indoor cat, Vinnie. Both are important members of our family. Glitch enjoys having canine visitors, and he has always done well with dogs in our home. To keep everyone safe and comfortable, I carefully introduce dogs and only accept dogs that are friendly with cats. We have a fully fenced yard. I’m happy to accommodate your dog’s normal routine, including using a crate if they’re already crate trained and comfortable with it.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Galivan
Parnian was such a help with our cats when we were out of town for a long weekend. We had recently moved houses so our cats were pretty shy & out of sorts, but she made them feel comfortable enough to come out and cuddle. She's very communicative & proactive, and she also went out of her way to help us bring in packages and clean up after the cats. Would be so happy for her help with home visits again.

We've trusted Nikki with our cat several times and she is always wonderful. She takes great care of him and sends the most amazing photos and videos, which make being away so much easier. We always come home to a happy, well-cared-for kitty and feel very lucky to have found her.

Olivia saved us when we had another pet sitter cancel on us, mid-booking! She was flexible and was ok with me walking her through everything over the phone since we had already left town. She is very responsible and a great communicator, sending us lots of photos and updating us on how our pets were doing. She took excellent care of our pets and home, and we look forward to booking her for more pet care in the future!
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.

Emma was a wonderful help caring for our two kitties while we were gone. I was nervous to leave them in the care of someone new, but she was great! She showed up when she said she would and communicated regularly. We loved seeing the photos of our kitties and updates on how they were doing. We will definitely reach out to Emma for future kitty care.

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.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Galivan. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
