“My husband and I had a last minute 6-day work trip come up and had to fly out early the next day. 🫨 We had no luck finding any sitters and didn’t want to burden friends with the task of checking in on our kitties. Thankfully, Héloïse replied to my panicked Rover request and came to our rescue! We left the next morning and she arrived promptly at the booking time and sent photos of our cats right away. Each day we received fantastic photo and video updates and we could tell our kitties were relaxed and cared for! Even though we missed our cats sooo much, our stress levels were at 0 because we had 100% confidence in Héloïse. She also took great care of our apartment and left it so neat and tidy! We are so grateful to be back with our sweet kitties, especially knowing they had a full week of total love and care from Héloïse! 🐈🐈”

“We loved Emilie! Our puppy, Leo quickly took to her and felt comfortable. Emilie is very conscientious and also a great communicator. I felt at ease leaving my baby with her and I’ll definitely be having her dog sit for me in the future. She also left us a cute drawing of him that we saw when we got back!”


“Our second time having Patrick come stay with our little ones and we are just thrilled! Our animals are happy and healthy, our home is in perfect condition and we were kept updated throughout our trip. Needless to say, Patrick will be our first call any time we are heading out of town! Thank you so much!”

“Alexis was great with our two dogs Olive and Harry, and cat Ruby! This was Olive’s first time with a stranger sitter and she was nervous at first but Alexis was super patient and gracious with her and she calmed down quickly. Will be using Alexis again soon.”


“My energetic dog was really well taken care of by Jasper! It was our first time leaving her for more than one night, and she was communicative and consistent with photos and updates. Everything went smoothly and we would gladly ask her to sit our dog again!”


“Wendy is an exceptional cat sitter! I came back to find my cat, Gaia, looking healthier and happier than ever. Wendy managed to correct Gaia's biting behavior, which had been a long-standing issue. Her excellent communication throughout my trip, along with regular updates and photos, gave me great peace of mind. The house was left spotless and in even better condition than I left it. I highly recommend Wendy to anyone in need of a reliable and effective cat sitter. Thank you, Wendy!”


“We had the absolute pleasure of having Christina care for our two hairless cats for two nights, and we couldn't be happier with the experience. From the start, Christina was professional, kind, and incredibly attentive. She sent us thoughtful daily updates and adorable photos that clearly showed how comfortable and content our cats were in her care. Our cats are very cuddly and quite demanding, but when we returned home, they were totally relaxed—a true testament to the connection they formed with Christina. She also treated our home with the utmost respect, which we really appreciated. If you're looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and genuinely great with animals, we highly recommend Christina. We’d welcome her back anytime!”

“Deana was so kind and trustworthy. She seems to be the first Rover that my very spoiled maldita actually liked and felt comfortable with in a short period of time. She knew exactly how to care for dogs that are special in character, and I can tell Deana has a good heart for our furry babies. She's really cool too and very easy to talk to. She sent me photos and gave me updates! Highly recommended! So happy to have her care for our Wendie, and will definitely have her care for my spoiled girl again whenever we need to go Universal Studios and Disneyland! Hope she takes us back! THANK YOU D!”


“When we go out of town, Jean is ALWAYS our go-to sitter for our elder special needs cat. She's a great house guest, we trust her implicitly, and always sends lots of texts, photos, and video check ins.”


“Hunter house sat watched my deaf doggo and rescue cat and I had a great experience! Very communicative and sent lots of pictures. It was clear my fur babies had been very well cared for and would highly recommend them! My dog had a lot of energy and wants constant attention at it was clear from our first meeting that Hunter is very patient and kind. Don’t hesitate to book!”


“I absolutely recommend Avi! He took such good care of my two senior dogs while I was out of the country and kept in contact with photos along the way. I would definitely book him again!!”


“Gabriana was amazing. Our pets took to her so quickly, including our highly anxious dog! She’s a pet whisperer. We also returned to a clean and organized house. Highly recommend her!”



“Taryn did an amazing job house sitting my dog Theo for a long weekend (Thursday-Sunday). Theo can be nervous with new people and situations and Taryn was so sweet and patient with him. She provided daily updates and left the house immaculately clean. Theo seemed so calm and happy upon our return - like he didn’t even notice we were gone. I will definitely book Taryn again for house sitting and highly recommend her services.”



“My wife and I had Alex stay at our place overnight to watch our cats and she did a wonderful job! She was very attentive and an active messenger for an anxious cat dad like myself. Our normally shy and nervous cat even came out to see her! Highly recommended her to come care for your animals. She left the place looking exactly how it was before we left :) If you need a sitter, Alex is your girl.”


About: I’ve been caring for my own dog (my bestie) since I was 9 years old. I have experience from her high-energy days to her now senior years. That experience sparked my love for animals and taught me the importance of being gentle, responsible, and patient. I’ve also cared for pets belonging to friends, neighbors, and family, helping with walking, feeding, bathing, and playtime. I genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved in my care. I currently work part-time, so I have lots of flexibility in my day to care for pets. I’m available for walks or drop-ins on weekdays after 2 PM. My main focus will be your pets' safety and comfort while providing a calm, loving environment, and following your instructions carefully to keep your pet happy and secure. I treat every animal with care and respect. I can also crate if needed and keep playtime supervised.

Lincoln Heights pet parents share their Rover experiences
Christina went above and beyond in her first time cat/housesitting our beloved Misty. Misty has chronic IBD, and requires transdermal medication on her ear. Misty's a bit anxious and historically has only allowed me to administer the medication, but Christina was such a pro that she was able to administer the medication while we were away with no issues! Beyond that, she was super communicative, sent ample cute photos, and left our house cleaner than we left it. 12/10, will be booking her again!

Katherine was flexible and so kind with our pup who had recently injured one of his paws. Not only was she able to accommodate a last minute booking, she also quickly scheduled a meet and greet prior to her house sitting. She sent lots of pictures, made sure to stick to his routine, and treated our home with respect. We would gladly rebook with Katherine anytime.

Georgia and Andrew were great! They took care of our dog and cats for three weeks in our home. They have great communication, and left our house in better shape that when we left for our trip. Our pets warmed up to both of them quickly, and Georgia and Andrew had excellent instincts for how to help the dog and cats acclimate to them. We would definitely call them again in the future!

I’m so grateful for the amazing care Peggy gave my three cats. I think another review summed it up perfectly, calling her “The Mary Poppins of Cats”! On her visit to my house to meet the cats and have a walkthrough, all three cats were insta toy happy and relaxed and affectionate with her, including one guy who is normally shy, and one gal who is VERY picky about the humans she hangs out with! I was so impressed and instantly knew I’d made the right call booking Peggy. During her stay Peggy was always communicative and good natured. She’s a gifted cat photographer and shared some of the best pics I’ve ever seen of the cats, many times a day. It was wonderful to see how relaxed the cats were, and that they were plainly having fun with Peggy and enjoying her stay. I got the impression Peggy genuinely enjoyed hanging out with the cats, and that it was very mutual from the feline end. She went above and beyond by offering to swing by after work while I was travelling back to give the cats dinner. She had only been booked until breakfast but that extra kindness was a huge relief for me when I found out my flight was delayed. She left my house in beautiful condition, and the cats were super relaxed when I got home. Thanks Peggy, you’re a legend for a reason!

Vee was amazing! We had a meet and greet with her and our dog and cat before we hired her, and we knew immediately from her sweet energy that she would be perfect for the job. She stayed at our house over the weekend and we could barely tell that she had set a foot inside when we returned. She was extremely respectful, clean, communicative, and such a natural with our somewhat temperamental and particular dog :) We recommend Vee without hesitation and will look forward to hiring her again for our next trip away.

Shanna was the BEST cat sitter I've EVER had!!!! I'd had a friend in place to watch my 3 cats for well over a month before traveling to India for 2 weeks when, 2 days before leaving the friend calls while I'm at the nail salon getting my first manicure in over 20 years, to tell me they can no longer pet sit! In a total panic, I start looking at the first site that popped up on google: Rover. And Thank you Jesus, it was! From the get go, Shanna was wonderful. Her calm, non judgement demeanor immediately put me at ease and to which I am so grateful for. The next day we met, we go over care info, yah. But, being the pet mom that I am, I'm still a little worried. I've just left my babies with a total stranger! Turns out I was worrying over nothing. Shanna followed my detailed instructions to the letter. Shanna also checked in with pictures of my kitties all throughout my trip, perfectly timed; not too often or going to long without letting me know all was going well, so much so I never once had to contact her even once during my trip, as she was already on top of doing so. What a relief that was! And the cherry on top of it all was I came back to not one of my 3 cats being mad at me for leaving them with a stranger! And cat owners know just how incredible that is! So, if you are looking for an AMAZING cat sitter, who really understands cats I cannot recommend Shanna enough! I will be hiring her again without a doubt! And Shanna, if you read this: Thank You Again for taking care of my guys. You honestly are the BEST cat sitter I've ever had!

Emma was fantastic! From the moment we booked, she was incredibly communicative and made me feel totally at ease. She sent daily updates—sometimes even more than once a day—and included tons of adorable photos. It was clear she really cared and took the time to keep Remi happy and comfortable. I’d absolutely use Emma again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable sitter.

I can’t recommend [Her Name] enough! She’s an amazing communicator—always keeping me updated and sending the sweetest photos, which gives me so much peace of mind when I’m away. My dog, Kobe, absolutely loves her! It’s so clear that he feels completely at home with her, which honestly means everything to me. You can tell she truly cares and goes the extra mile. I feel so lucky to have found her!

Hannah was excellent with Tyson. Very friendly and they spent the day together. They went for car rides, and walks. Tyson was tired at the end of the exciting day with Hannah. She regularly sent photos and meaningful updates and we appreciate her quality care for Tyson so much! Would definitely recommend Hannah.

Big thanks to Olivia for her attentive and detailed care of our very particular senior yorkie dog. It is hard for us to leave him in anyone else’s care but she was willing to work with us to come stay in our home with him while we were away. She sent pictures and videos multiple times every day. He seems to have had zero problems with her and we are so grateful. We would certainly reach out to her again if needed in the future.

Angelina was punctual and great with Piper. We moved into the area fairly recently and were a bit worried that Piper would be more anxious than normal, but Angelina made her feel comfortable and gave us updates throughout her stay. We will definitely be using her again :)
