“Another rebooking with Crystal and another fantastic experience. She has continued to bond with our fur baby and couldn’t be happier with her service.”
“Elaine was stellar to work with. She is upbeat, communicative, and handless my little one very well. I just relocated to the desert, and my dog has recently been through a lot of changes. Elaine was able to take care of my dog who has separation anxiety issues just great. I’ve worked with other Rover’s in LA who often stressed out at my dogs behavior, and Elaine really met the challenge in a professional and caring way. I would absolutely suggest hiring Elaine and plan to do so again in the future.”
“This was the second time we had Jon watch our doberman Tyson while visiting Palm Springs. Tyson has severe separation anxiety and Jon great while watching Tyson when we went out for the evening. Jon's professionalism and 'dog skills' allowed us to have evenings out without a single worry. We highly recommend Jon, and will using him on our next visit to Palm Springs. Thanks Jon!”
“Margaret was great! She watched my cat, house (and all the outdoor critters I feed) for four days and did a fantastic job. She was responsible, communicative, and clearly gave my cat plenty of attention and care—he was totally relaxed and happy when I returned. Highly recommend and would absolutely book her again.”
“Susan was an amazing dog sitter for my 17 year old dog. She set up a meet and greet beforehand and sent me daily updates with pictures while I was gone. She was very patient and attentive to my senior dog's anxieties and needs. She was a great houseguest and very reliable. I would definitely use Susan again.”
“We feel so blessed to have had Margaret available to help us with our senior dog. She was incredibly attentive and focused on Scrappy; and I truly appreciate the loving care she provided. We're grateful to have had Margaret take such good care of our loving pet. Many thanks.”
“SJ truly was amazing and took wonderful care of my little furry boy. She was very responsive and was constantly updating me on how he was doing which was lovely. I would highly recommend her to anyone who is a stress ball when it comes to leaving their pets alone while they travel. Thank you SJ for being so incredible!”
About: I have taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 12. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, watch, and love their dogs when they are traveling. I’m currently finishing my masters program online so I have plenty of time to watch/walk your animals. I’m available weekdays and weekends so please reach out! Your dogs will be safe in my home and I am available to stay at your house if needed. I also have a 6 year old Boston terrier that will keep your pet company when I run errands.
“Anthony was amazing with our 2 pups, he watched them for 6 days for us at our home over the july 4th weekend. He was attentive, took them walking and our pups both truly love him. He was clean and respectful of our home also, I would highly recommend Anthony to anyone looking for a sitter who will love your pups just as much as you do”
“Christine was amazing! We left our corgi Hallie with her over the Christmas holiday and she had a blast! She took amazing care of Hallie and of our home! Christine kept us constantly updated with pictures and messages! We can’t recommend her enough!”
“Cheryl is one of the best Rover sitters we've ever worked with! Our dog LOVED Cheryl.. we're talking full on cuddle sessions and big greetings :) Cheryl is super communicative and was very clearly a dog person from the minute we met her. We felt so comfortable that Cheryl was with our pup for the night and really appreciate the great care she took. She's the best. Thank you so much!”
“Camille’s flexibility for a last minute stay was amazing! She was prompt and I know she took good care of my babies! I’d use her a thousand times over!”
About: I’ve worked as a vet assistant for over 3 years, so I’m super comfortable caring for pets of all kinds—including seniors, pets with medical needs, and those who are a little shy or anxious. I know how to give meds, keep an eye on health issues, and make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and cared for. I treat every pet like they’re my own—whether that means extra belly rubs, quiet time, or just keeping their routine consistent. Plus, if anything ever seems off, I have the experience to catch it early and keep you in the loop. You can relax knowing your pet is in calm, capable hands. Pet care is a big part of my life and something I genuinely love doing. I’m currently in vet tech school from 9am to 12pm, Monday through Thursday, so I plan the rest of my day—and weekends—around caring for animals. Whether it’s drop-ins, walks, or house sitting, I have open availability in the afternoons, evenings, and on weekends. Since I’m training to become a veterinary technician, I’m always looking for ways to build experience and spend more time with animals. Caring for pets outside of school feels natural to me, and I love giving them the attention, comfort, and care they deserve. I am completely comfortable to do drop ins or stay in your home with your pet while you are away and can give updates as often as needed. I am going to start school in the morning for veterinary technicians but I am available in the afternoons and weekends.
“Our dog, Winnie is in the best of care when Kimberly comes. On time, good judgment and complete animal person all just begin to describe Kimberly. We are very grateful that we have found such an amazing dog sitter.”
About: I have taken care of animals my entire life ever since I received my chihuahua (Dutchess) at the age of six. I have such a deep passion for animals and find fulfillment in taking care of our furry friends. I currently work part time at New Wave Home Audio and Video part time but I am free every afternoon, evening, and weekends to fit into any schedule. I have a very large fenced in yard with a pool and a little dachshund to be a companion if your fur baby prefers. I can also crate large and small dogs and have plenty of space to separate animals as needed
“This was the first time we used Tawny and we were very impressed. We have somewhat challenging circumstances, with 2 English Mastiffs and a few cats, but Tawny handled everything with aplomb, and all of the pets really took to her. She definitely deserves a 5-star rating.”
“Taylor was fantastic! She watched our energetic 50-pound pup and our sassy cat at our home for a full week while we were abroad, and she far exceeded our expectations. She initiated a meet and greet ahead of time, and the animals loved her. She asked thoughtful questions about our animals’ lifestyles, and took our dog on adventures and played with our cat just like we would. We received frequent pictures and updates, and returned home to a tidy place with happy pets! We would hire her over and over again :)”
“Lucy will treat your dog like her own. She loves loves loves dogs. I honesty have never met a more caring, loving pet sitter! She treated our Gigi like a queen and went above and beyond for her.”
“It isn't possible to be happier with a pet sitter than we are with Susan. She came and stayed the night with Abigail, who warmed up to her pretty quickly. It was such a delight to come home to a happy dog. Susan is totally focused on the safety and wellbeing of your pet. She was very good at communicating and sent lots of pics. She is trustworthy and kind, and we've already scheduled her for our next getaway.”
