“Lana fue una cuidadora increíble para Grima. Fue súper profesional, puntual y atenta, lo que nos hizo sentir muy tranquilos y seguros, sobre todo porque era la primera vez que viajábamos y dejábamos a Grima con alguien. Además, fue súper flexible y cariñosa con ella. Siempre estaba al pendiente de las necesidades de Grima, como cambiar los seateres según el clima y mantener limpio el área donde estuvo unos días. En general, tuvimos una experiencia fantástica con Lana y la recomendamos muchísimo.”
“Amazing pet sitter! She took such great care of our cats and kept me updated through the entire process. She is my number 1 choice when I need someone to watch my cats!”
About: I have trained my dogs so I have some experience even with stubborn pups. I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 12 with family and neighbors. I’m experienced on providing medication (if needed) feeding, bathing, walking. Though this path, I have learned to have patient with the pups because each one of them is different, personality and character wise, to understand them. I have time as long as it’s scheduled at least with 3 days in advance and only on weekends given I have a full time job during the week. Depends on client’s preferences and instructions. Most of the time, I keep them inside and go outside with supervision only. If able, I can walk them with my 2 huskies so they get to socialize, or maybe dog park if nearby.
“Allison dropped in on Kobe for multiple days while I was commuting in and out of town for a work event. She responded quickly and was flexible. She followed directions and gave great updates and photos during the check-ins. We would definitely use her again in the future!”
About: I’ve cared for pets for family, friends, and neighbors since I was a kid. I’m experienced with puppies who need patience and consistency, as well as senior pets who need extra care and attention. I treat every pet like my own and make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable. Pet care fits naturally into my routine. I work from home part of the week, which allows me to be flexible and available most weekdays and weekends for walks, drop-ins, and extended care. I care for pets exclusively in their own home to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I follow all instructions carefully, maintain a clean environment, prioritize safety, and provide regular updates.
About: I have my own pup for 9 years and we are still going strong. He is my best friend and I like to believe I am his too even when I’m hogging his personal space. I have dog/cat sat for a couple of my friends’ dogs from puppy/kitty years to grown adults! I have a full time job and I know how it feels to have that guilt of being away from them due to work. I hope I can help you feel relieved to know your pet is getting all the attention they deserved while you go do your thing! I have my own dogs names Teddy and Rocky, so it’s instinctual for me doing pet care. Integrating your pet into our routine will be easy peasy! I live in a townhome that I own. We have a small fenced area for pets to roam in the backyard. around and take potty breaks when needed. Also plenty of treats and toys available because I have a shopping problem and spoil my own pet too much.
“Thanks to a last minute booking Samantha accepted we were able to enjoy our trip away. She is very professional and accommodating. Sent photos and detailed updates about our dog Maisy. I was at peace knowing Maisy was cared for by such a nice person. We’re so happy to have found her! I would highly recommend her for your pet sitting needs. Thank you Samantha ❤️”
“Jasmine was so awesome! My cats loved her and she was reliable and easy to communicate with. It’s obvious she loves animals and showed great care and attention to my three cats. I’d happily use her again!!”
“The second time Brett has watched my dog, Myka, for a long weekend and he is still just as great. We will continue to rebook him as long as he is available.”
“Ana was great. She came by and took care of both my dogs and three cats twice a day without any issues. She was great at communicating and provided photos every visit. Would definitely book her again”
“Tuongvi is so sweet, kind, and caring to our dog, Zelda! She always makes sure that she goes potty and plays with her to get her crazy energy out. We’re so thankful that she can watch our baby!”

She was wonderful with my three dogs and even came on her day off to make sure they were taken care of. She alerted me right away when she noticed my front door was open, which I really appreciated. Very reliable, communicative, and attentive. I felt completely at ease knowing my dogs were in good hands. Highly recommend.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
