“G’La was amazing! She took such great care of Tuna and Finn while we were away for two nights and two and a half days. I felt totally at ease knowing they were in good hands. She was communicative, kind, and clearly loves animals — Tuna and Finn were so calm and happy when we got back. Couldn’t recommend her more. Will definitely be reaching out again!”
“Qishu was a great, she clearly really loves dogs and cats and they love her. She was very reliable and easy to communicate with. She sent informative updates with pictures so we knew everything was ok. I would definitely book with her again!”
“Excellent service. Dane has great communication. He updates me everytime he comes and check on the pups. He takes cute pictures of them and spent time with each one, make sure they get all the attention they need. One of my dogs is reactive and difficult to handle, while most people turn him away, Dane makes sure he gets the care that he needs. I’m for sure will be a returning customer.”
“Dennis did an awesome job caring for our special needs dog who suffers from DM. Our dog needs the assistance of a wheelchair for mobility, and Dennis took on the challenge confidently- with patience and understanding. He sent plenty of pictures and updates, and followed our instructions perfectly. I highly recommend!”
“Elisa was so amazing with our pup, and our pup seemed incredibly comfortable around her as well! They had so much fun together for a 3-day stay at our house, including 2 big hikes & multiple fetch sessions in 3 days! Elisa was very attentive to Roxy's needs, took notes on our instructions, and was conscientious & responsible. Elisa is an excellent communicator and sent entertaining and informative daily updates complete with adorable photos and video. It's clear Elisa genuinely adores dogs. I can't imagine a better pet sitter! We are so grateful to Elisa for taking such good care of our pup & hope to work with her again soon!”
“Victoria was the best! She sent pictures daily and was extremely communicative. Our pets were well cared for! We will 100% be asking her to come back next time we are gone.”
“We are so grateful to Korin for watching out little guy. Our dog is a rescue and can be really shy around new people. Korin handled him like a pro and even got him playing and enjoying pets! We will definitely keep Korin in mind for future trips and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter.”
“Elise came highly recommended by a trusted friend, and she did not disappoint! She was great with my two pit bull mixes, who warmed up to her immediately, and she dealt with their anxiety and other quirks like a true pro. I came home to happy pups and a clean house. Couldn’t ask for better. Would hire again and recommend 10/10.”
“Anais took excellent care of our pets and home while we were away for the weekend. Our dog can be a little finicky and needs a lot of company, but Anais was enthusiastic about getting to know his routine and we arrived home to find relaxed animals and the house just like we left it (she even washed her sheets - really not necessary!). Thanks Anais!”
“Ammy watched our dog at our apartment for a long weekend and we felt very at-ease while away. She comforted our nervous pup during the 4th of July fireworks, in which we were grateful. Ammy’s communication, kindness, and wit are the perfect combo for dog responsibility. Will definitely book in the future with her.”
“This was my second time working with Zsa-Zsa and she was great! Her communication leading up to the stay and during the stay was thorough and detailed. My dogs were excited to see her when she arrived at the house; that’s always a good sign!”
“Stephanie showed up and my puppy was immediately taken care of. I had to leave for the weekend last minute and it was great to know that the pets were in safe hands.”
“All the reviews are true - Kerri is simply amazing! She was really great with the dogs and left the house so clean that it felt like no one had touched it!. One of the dogs can be reactive on leash, and she handled her like it was a piece of cake. Happy to know the dogs and the house are in good hands with Kerri. Will be using her again for sure.”
“Alyssa is an incredible sitter who pays close attention to detail and asks a lot of questions to better understand your pet's schedule. I couldn't have asked for a better sitter!”
“We would definitely recommend Lei Lei for dog and house-sitting. Lei Lei is super knowledgeable about dogs and we could tell that she and our dog Milo became fast friends. Lei Lei was communicative and professional and left the house in perfect condition. We loved the photos and updates of their adventures, though as crazy dog parents we of course would have happily received more photos/videos.”
“Nina did an amazing job housesitting with our two dogs. She was incredibly polite, responsive, genuine and honest. When we had to modify our reservation due to unforeseen circumstances she was able to adapt and, on her own accord, went above and beyond to make sure the trip was successful. We would feel comfortable having her in our house and taking care of our dogs at any time. I can't say enough great things about her.”

Leona Heights pet parents share their Rover experiences
Alison is absolutely wonderful! She took such loving care of our two dogs, and we could tell they were happy and comfortable while we were away. She was reliable, attentive, and trustworthy. We came home to happy pups. I live in the San Diego area and I am sad that Alison doesn’t live closer to us, but will definitely ask her to sit for our pups next time we’re in San Francisco! We would recommend Alison to anyone looking for a caring sitter—she’s the best!”
Juliana did an excellent job taking care of our two dogs. They got lots of walks and when she sent pictures, which she did a lot, they were smiling and looking so happy. She was also willing to stay at our house. She's a great communicator. She let us know how things were going during each day. I highly recommend her.
Mary was a great fit for our dog and cat, Poppy and Lola! She stayed in the home with them while we were out of town and sent us photos daily (so we would miss them a little less!). Mary has a calm and centered demeanor and quickly gained our trust. We will definitely call on her again!
Daria was a great dog/house sitter, even with a last-minute booking and a sick dog. She watched our dog for over a week and even did an unexpected vet visit when she wasn’t feeling well and needed extra tests and adjustment in her medications. We were able to enjoy our vacation knowing our dog was in good hands!
I couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter! Leo took amazing care of my 12-year old dog Jasper while I was away and made sure he was comfortable and well loved the entire time. It was such a relief to receive daily photo updates—some were adorable, and others were downright hilarious! It was clear Jasper was in great hands and enjoying himself. On top of that, he went above and beyond by tidying up around the house. Everything was neat and clean when I got home, and I could tell he had even vacuumed. It was such a thoughtful touch to return to a clean space after traveling. I highly recommend him and would absolutely trust him with my dog again!
Nia came through and saved the day! I couldn't have picked a better sitter for my boys. On top of being super responsive and accepting a relatively last minute booking, she also was very personable and kind. I was so thankful that despite not feeling 100%, she still watched my dogs. I think I can speak for Zeke and Smush in saying we are all happy to only book with Nia moving forward. She’s the best!
David & Mabel are the sweetest! They were communicative, proactive, and took great care of my quirky, high-needs dog. Bo is a sweetheart but he needs a lot of help between his leash reactivity and separation anxiety, and David and Mabel are experienced pros. I want to gatekeep their care because they're already so busy but I'd rather spread the good word!
Faith was an amazing sitter for our dog, Nori. We really appreciated her experience with rescue and reactive dogs, which made us feel confident leaving our anxious pup in her care. Although Nori is sweet at home, she can be nervous and sometimes barky toward other dogs on walks. Faith’s calm, knowledgeable approach, and her experience with administering meds to put us at ease. She kept us updated with daily pictures and messages, which we loved! We also loved that she uses positive reinforcement with dogs. She was extremely responsive and easy to get along with and we could immediately tell Nori loved her. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and would highly recommend her to anyone looking!
Alyssa has helped us twice now with our senior French Bulldog. Our dog needs 2 medications daily and has some special dietary needs and Alyssa has handled it all with great care and professionalism. But the best review is from our sweet pup who was excited to see Alyssa again when she returned. That was truly the vote that mattered. We travel a lot and finding care for our dog is our highest priority. Alyssa has been a wonderful find.
Lei Lei was awesome. She was super communicative from day one and took great care of our dog / house sitting, including several walks on the trails. Appreciate her stepping up for us last minute and for all the great photo/video updates. Would definitely recommend / book again!
