“We recently adopted our dog and were concerned about leaving her all day. Kayla made us feel at ease. Kayla has a calm energy and our pup loved her! She sent us pictures and videos so we knew everything was good. We highly recommend Kayla.”

“Bradey was a breeze and pleasure to work with and my best Rover experience so far. She was so easy to communicate with, professional and confident. She kept great care of our pup and kept us posted throughout the day making us feel at ease during our vacation. She also kept really good care of our home. I would recommend her and definitely have her watch our dog again!”

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my whole life, and caring for them has always brought me joy. I’ve helped family, friends, and neighbors with their pets by walking, feeding, bathing, and giving lots of love along the way. At home, I have two sweet cats, one a rescued stray and the other was the runt of his litter, who’ve taught me patience, compassion, and how every animal deserves special care. Whether it’s a playful puppy, a senior dog who needs gentle attention, or a shy kitty who warms up slowly, I treat every pet like family and make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. Because I work part-time, I have lots of extra time to spend with furry friends. I’m available most weekdays and on weekends for walks, drop-ins, and overnight stays. I also keep my calendar updated so pet parents can book with confidence. If you ever need last minute care, feel free to reach out I’ll always do my best to help. My home is cozy and pet-friendly, with plenty of space for play and rest. I also share it with my two sweet cats, who are very gentle and welcoming with other animals. If a pet prefers their own space, I can easily separate them to make sure everyone feels comfortable. I believe in treating pets like family. I’ll provide them with lots of cuddles, belly rubs, playtime, and frequent potty breaks to keep tails wagging and whiskers happy.
About: I have taken care of my neighbors pets since I was 18 and have been so blessed by the experience. It has taught me that each animal is different and needs select level of care and attention. I will curate your pets experience based on how they're temperament is and I will take the best care as if they were my own fur baby. I work monday- friday 8:30-5:30 and will care for your pets between evening and morning. Sometimes my boss if flexible enough where I could run to your house and let them out midday on my lunch break. I will walk at night or early morning depending on the day. I will take extra care in your home. I do rent so I am unable to care for your pets in my own space but I would be more than happy to help you out in their most comfortable environment. I'm a preschool teacher so I am out most of the day until 5:30.
“Marketta did an amazing job taking care of our 2 dogs while we were away. She is very trustworthy, responsive and caring. It’s nice to know our dogs were in great hands! We highly recommend her and can’t wait to have her watch our pups again!”
“Jessica is a wonderful house sitter and took great care of our senior dog Ruby. Frequent updates were provided. We will be booking with her again if we have any future vacations!”
About: I have experience with younger, crazier pups as well as seniors that need extra care and assistance. I am more comfortable with small to medium dogs. I work full time in the Irvine area, but I have some flexibility with hours to help care for pets. I enjoy being outdoors and going on walks/runs, but also enjoy being cozy at home (whatever the fur baby wants to do) I live in an apartment that is extremely pet friendly with parks nearby, however I would prefer to be in the client's home. I try to be very respectful about owner's rules for their pups because I understand all animals have different rules and preferences.
About: Apart from always growing up with dogs as a kid, as an adult I have had experience with caring for bigger more high maintenance dogs like English Bulldogs and Labs/Pitbulls since they were puppies. I’d like to think that even the timid dogs eventually warm up to me! I currently have two dogs whom I love unconditionally and have always given that same love to other dogs I have watched in the past. I work remotely so watching your pets at your home is not a problem! My schedule is very flexible and can adapt to your babies’ needs! Considering I have two big dogs myself who are strong and likes to pull, I am always aware or my surroundings when walking them and put their safety first. I will do the same for your furry pets and make sure they are supervised and safe.
About: I have experience as a dog groomer and years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats. I also shared 15 amazing years with my own dog, which taught me patience, responsibility, and how important it is for pets to feel safe, loved, and understood. I have a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate time and attention to pet care throughout the week. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits and sitting, and I always make sure pets get consistent care, attention and companionship as part of my daily routine. I’m very attentive to safety and comfort, and I make sure pets feel secure and well cared for in their home. I respect routines, follow instructions closely and always treat pets with patience and care.
“John did an amazing job caring for our dogs. He has an amazing energy and our dogs loved him right away! We felt confident leaving them with John and hope to use him again as a sitter in the future.”
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover and have cared for pups of all ages, from energetic puppies to sweet senior dogs. I can help with training and reinforcing routines for younger dogs, and I’m also experienced with giving medications and providing the extra gentle care older dogs need. Outside of being a dog mom, I'm a real mom. When my daughter is in school, I'm busy working on the launch of my own small business and walking dogs! My regular dog services are Monday-Friday. As needed, I can do weekends. Safety and comfort are always my top priorities when I’m caring for all animals. I will follow your routines closely, so everything feels familiar to your fur baby. From meals, walks, play, cuddles, my goal is to make sure they get the love and attention they need, while having a blast!

Great Park pet parents share their Rover experiences
Samantha took great care of Jax. I got lots of updates and pictures and confirmations that she was putting in the extra effort for his care. The house was clean and his box was unkept when i got home. He warmed up to her slowly which means she took it at his pace which i greatly appreciate. It means she knows how shy cats can be. Thank you so much and Jax and i Greatly appreciate all the extra efforts. Means so much when I’m away! My old man is almost 19 Now and his care is imprornat to me.
Joyce has been a blessing to our dog Oliver and to my family over the years. Oliver enjoyed the special attention he received from Joyce and we loved the over the top care he received from Joyce. As Oliver got older, Joyce easily adapted to his changing needs with love and grace. The only reason we could go on vacation was because Joyce was with our Oliver. Joyce sent us pictures of Oliver while we were gone so we can see he was doing good! Also, Joyce took great care of our house and it was always welcoming upon our return. We are grateful to Joyce for her care and special connection with Oliver over the years...and also with us. We always felt very comfortable while she was in our home with Oliver!
Fairhlynn was an absolute gem. This was our first time using Rover as we had a last minute cancellation. We have a senior dog who is set in her routines and it meant everything to have someone here that understands the extra care and love she needed. Faithlynn was friendly, loving and very communicative. She sent texts with photos every day with updates that put my mind at ease. We will definitely hire Fairhlynn, hoping she’s available :).
Here’s a polished and completed version of your review: ⸻ I highly recommend hiring Angela to take care of your dog. I was out of town for eight days, and she kept me consistently updated with photos and quick reports. My anxious dog was at ease with her from the moment they met, which gave me so much peace of mind. She was respectful of my home and followed all instructions carefully. Angela is reliable, caring, and truly great with animals. I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again!
Alice was amazing with my dog, Kira! She had very little time to get to know her ahead of time, but bonded well just the same. Took great care of my place and Kira had a blast. She followed all instructions to a T. Made sure I got photos and updates constantly along the way. I was never worried for a second. Will absolutely be booking her again and would recommend to those seeking someone to take good care of their fur baby .
Jersey came a few times before a four day stay at our home to take care of our two year old Border Collie, Dolly. Dolly is very shy and Jersey demonstrated great patience and gentleness, winning Dolly’s trust. Jersey has shown that she is very responsible. She has come each occasion as promised and right on time. Dolly shows that she really likes Jersey and trusts her. We strongly recommend her.
So I normally don’t leave reviews but Chienju did an amazing job with our two fur babies! She house Sat and dog sat for us and I’m pretty sure both my pups got sad when she left lol All they did was wait by the stairs (I think they thought she would be back) to see if she’d return! She updated us constantly and shared some adorable pictures of our babies while we were away. She also kept our home as clean as we left it and was just overall very respectful of our home and our instructions for our dogs. I would highly recommend her if you need a sitter! I will for sure use her again in the future. Thanks again Chienju and I’m pretty sure our pups are sad you don’t live with us lol 🤣
We are so glad we found Julie. She watched our boy for a week and took great care of him and our home. She was very reliable and attentive, taking extra time to play with him to help reduce any separation anxiety. We wouldn’t hesitate to hire her again. Julie is great.
Hannah was amazing with our puppy. She handled his hesitation well and by the end I think she took the best photos of him we have. Sounds like they became best friends. Constant updates, tons of photos, and asked questions when we weren’t clear on something. Definitely will be booking again! Thank you!!
Robin will be the first person I call the next time I need help with Duke. If I travel he comes with me. Unfortunately, this time he needed to stay home. Duke took to Rubin instantly! I was gone for 7 days. Robin sent photos and videos the entire time. One photo is SO nice I will be framing it. She stayed in my home the entire time and it looks better than when I left. Duke was relaxed and happy when I came home. Not an once of anxiety in him. I do believe he is walking around looking for Robin!! We are off on our new routine now - morning AND evening walks around the lake. Thank you Robin, you are a true gem!
The timing could not have been worse, our Wheaton Terrier, Winston fell a little sick just as we were about to go away for a few days. Fortunately for us, we found John on Rover.com a couple days before. He looked after Winston, performing all the daily routine activities, (scheduled feedings, walks twice per day, etc), as well as administering medication since Winston was feeling is best. John provided a few pictures and videos as well. John did a great job watching over Winston.
Anika was fantastic! We had moved into a new neighborhood a week before I had to leave town. My two dogs, both 10 years old, had never lived in a new place their entire life. Anika visited us a day before to introduce herself to us and the dogs. Anika stayed with the anxious dogs, introduced them to the surroundings, bought supplies and topical medications on her own dime, purchased cleaning supplies on her own dime, went over and beyond in keeping us informed about the dogs, and left house warming gifts for us. She gave the dogs a bath and cleaned up our house before leaving. Dogs were calm when we returned. When we stepped out for an errand, they didn’t freak out and bark incessantly in our absence. She rolled with the chaos of the move and was very flexible and understanding. We were very grateful overall. I highly recommend Anika for dog sitting.
