1. Lilly S.

“Lilly was very attentive and communicative”


2. Evelyn H.

“Evelyn is amazing! She does a great job with our very difficult boys. She’s an excellent communicator and a very responsible walker. We’ll be hiring her again shortly!”


3. Lynn Y.
“Lynn was amazing! My two cats clearly loved spending time with her and took to her immediately during our meet and greet. She watered my plants, sent me lots of pictures, and was very communicative. I accidentally miscalculated how many days I’d need a sitter and she was super understanding and came to take care of the cats again on very short notice. I will definitely be asking Lynn to watch my cats again and would recommend her to anyone.”


4. Taryn T.

“Amazing! She kept me in the loop, followed the directions left and was very attentive to my pups! I miss them, but Taryn made leaving them as easy as leaving them can be, knowing they were in good hands! ❤️”


5. Kristin D.

“Kristin was very punctual with her visits with my cat and he was healthy and happy when I returned home. Short visit synopses were provided. I would book her again.”


6. Regan C.

“Regan did an incredible job taking care of my three cats! She was attentive, caring, and kept me updated every step of the way with thoughtful text about how they were doing. Her dedication and attention to detail gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It’s clear she truly loves animals, and I couldn’t be happier with the care she provided.”


7. Carmen S.

“Carmen did a wonderful job! I was very pleased. She visited and watched after my cat Lila. I love the pictures of Lila bonding with her. It was such a great feeling to get those while I was away. I would definitely use her again. Highly recommend!”

About: I have a loving French bulldog I have trained to be my service dog. Together we have cared for friends dogs from weekly overnights to Walkies during the day. If you need to travel and your fur baby can’t come then we would love to invite them into our pack while you are away. We gonna doggie adventures together, daily pack walks and I make sure your doggo is fed and loved while you are gone. Belly rubs for all! I work part time during the week so I am available overnights, daily Walkies and check-ins. Reach out and we can see how my schedule can meet your needs. I have a friendly dog to keep your fur baby company even when I am out of the house. Safe quiet community to go on long walks in.

About: 👋🏼 Hello! We have used Rover regularly to find care for our pup and kitty, and are excited to open our home to do the same for others. We would be delighted to board or check in on your pup/kitty while you are away. 🏡 We have a bright home with a large, fenced in yard that is turfed which is perfect for play time. 🐶 We have an energetic lab, and have very recent experience providing puppy care.🐱We also have a cat who’s very curious and loves to spend time with pups that stay with us. Your pup will get lots of play time in with us. **We ask that any pups stay with us must already be exposed to and good with cats. 🦮 We have the most experience caring for and have the perfect environment for Retrievers (We’re a bit biased 😅) but are of course open to caring for other breeds. I work from home 75%, so I am readily available to care for your pup. Morning walks, play breaks in the back yard, and lots of fun in between! Once the day is over, we usually go on a walk and play in the back. ☀️ We’re usually up at 6am. Our pup sleeps with us. We have a kennel for any furbabies who need them. Your pup will have someone with them the majority of the time. We treat any pups visiting us as family and will send lots of photos often so you are assured they are safe❤️

About: I currently have 2 cats and 1 dog of my own. I have had and trained dogs and cats for the last 15 years! I’ve also babysat several dogs and cats as well. I’m a huge animal lover! I also have a passion for positive reinforcement training, so don’t be surprised if your pup learns a new trick or 2 :) I have a pretty open schedule at the moment. So just let me know when you need me to stop by and I’m happy to help:) For dogs, I have an Australian Shepard which requires a lot of activities. We love taking her on runs, walks, beaches, hikes. I would love to bring your pup along or if your dog is weary of other dogs. I would love to do those activities with them as well! I’m also big building trust and good manners!

About: I grew up with a dog and started taking care of him when I was 12. I love all dogs from the smallest to larger breeds. Me and my fiancé adopted two puppies last year so your dog will have lots of play time while boarding. Before we got our pups we were fostering other dogs, both puppies and seniors. I’m free most days of the week as I’m working from home. I‘ve always loved being around dogs and felt a genuine connection when intercated with one. Since I‘m working from home, I have plenty of time to take your dog on walks, to the park or to the beach. The closest dog park to my house is a 5-minute drive away, and the closest dog beach is 10 minutes away. I will make sure your dog has lots of fun! I’m working from home every day except Tuesday. On Tuesdays I’m available after 3pm. I’m available on most weekends but please make sure to reach out 4 days in advance. I live in an apartment with plenty of space for small/medium dogs. There is an unfenced yard for potty breaks and a dog park 5 minutes away from my place.


17. Yazmin R.
“Yazmin is amazing with my dogs, she took the time to connect with them and they love her! Yazmin takes good care of my dogs when I am away for work. You can tell she had dogs of her own by the way she interacts with mine. Will definitely be using this service again. Thank you!”


18. Hollyanne & Donovan E.

“Hollyanne and Donovan are natural animal lovers! Their higher education degrees relating to animal care and working directly with animals at the San Diego Zoo makes me feel so comfortable knowing that they are skilled in understanding animal health, behavior, welfare and handling. They are responsible professionals who love my dog like their own. Their dogs are kind and well behaved and we have had no problems with them getting along with ours. Would definetly highly recommend them for your animal care needs!”


19. Izabella S.
“Izabella is a perfect dog-sitter. She takes excellent care of my two fur babies who have completely different personalities. She is good for walking them, dog-sitting at home or her place and feeding our dogs. She is patient and easy to work with, we highly recommend her.”


20. Lauren C.
About: Growing up around dogs, I’ve always been a dog lover and could not imagine my life without them! My aunt owns a dog rescue, where I am lucky to have gained hands on experience caring for dogs of all ages and breeds. I’m comfortable providing care for senior dogs as well and understand the special attention they need! Whether it’s companionship, walks, or administering medications, I’m here to give your dog the care and attention they deserve! I currently work full time during the week, so I can be available for early mornings before 7 am, evenings after 5 pm, and any time on the weekends. I am happy to be flexible and accommodating to your needs! Whether it’s a drop in visit, a walk, or a weekend stay, safety is always my top priority. In any environment, I’ll follow specific guidelines provided for the dog's routine, medications, or comfort. Keeping the environment calm and safe, along with providing lots of love and attention, is key to making sure your dog feels at home and secure while you're away!
