About: I have over 10 years of hands on experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and personalities. As a longtime pet owner, I understand that every pet has unique needs, routines, and temperaments. I previously cared for three dogs of my own and have experience with puppies, adult dogs, senior pets, and multi pet households. I’m comfortable caring for shy or anxious pets and always take the time to help them feel safe, comfortable, and at ease. I can accommodate special feeding schedules, daily routines, and individual care needs to help maintain consistency while you’re away. I provide a calm, safe, and loving environment where pets receive plenty of attention, affection, and playtime. I treat every pet like family and keep owners updated with photos and messages throughout their pet’s stay, so they always have peace of mind knowing their furry family member is happy, comfortable, and well cared for. My goal is to make every pet feel right at home. I’m trusted with others animals. I currently have a very flexible schedule and am home throughout the day, allowing me to provide attentive, personalized care from morning to night. Your pet won’t just be checked on, they’ll receive plenty of companionship, playtime, affection, and supervision. I’m able to accommodate special feeding schedules, medication routines, potty breaks, and individual care needs to help keep their routine as normal as possible. Whether your pet is staying for a day or an extended visit, my goal is to provide a safe, loving environment where they feel comfortable, happy, and right at home. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my highest priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any special care instructions before their stay so they feel as comfortable as possible. I provide a calm, clean, and loving home where pets are closely supervised and treated like family. I have access to a secure, fenced outdoor area within my apartment community for safe potty breaks and fresh air. I’m experienced caring for shy or anxious pets, as well as homes with multiple pets, and I always adapt my care to each animal’s unique needs. You’ll receive regular photo and video updates throughout your pet’s stay, so you can relax knowing your furry family member is safe, happy, and in caring hands.
About: I was a volunteer dog walker at an animal shelter in Orange County. I've been living with dogs since I was a child. Fluent in Japanese. I currently have a full time job, but I am available for your dogs on Thursdays and Fridays after 4:30 pm and on weekends all day. I would like to know your dogs energy level and what they like to do (or don't like to do) to adjust activities with them
About: Hi! My name is Alexa, I’m a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for dogs and other animals of many personalities and ages. I recently relocated to California and have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide attentive and reliable pet care. I am happy to help with dog walking, drop-in visits, overnight care, puppy care, and providing extra patience for senior dogs or pets who may feel anxious when their owners are away. I have a 2 year old fur baby of my own, Arlo; who's taught me how important routine, exercise, and affection are for a dog’s happiness and well-being. I’m always able to adjust to your pet's needs and personality. Whether they love long walks, playtime, or simply relaxing with someone nearby. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I enjoy spending the majority of my time with animals and being active outdoors. I structure my schedule to allow plenty of time for walks, playtime, feeding, and making sure pets get the attention they need throughout the day. I am sure to keep their routine as consistent as possible with what they’re used to at home. I follow instructions closely when it comes to feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any special needs. I know pets are family, and I treat every animal in my care with the same love, patience, and respect I would give Arlo ❤️. In a client’s home, I’m very respectful of both the pet’s environment and the home itself. I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, and affection while also keeping their surroundings clean and calm. I pay close attention to their behavior and energy levels to make sure they are happy and stress-free while you're away. Communication is also important to me, I like to provide updates and photos so you can feel reassured that your fur babies are doing well.
About: Growing up I took care of the families 2 german shepherds, i learned how to bathe them, feed them and walk them, started walking them when I was 9, they were pullers but I was able to stand my ground and settle them, also used to take care of a few of my friends dogs for 3. So yes I do have a lot of experience on caring and walking them. Most importantly, I know how to read their body language. I do have a part time job but don’t start until 7pm. I am free from 9am to 5pm and looking forward to caring for your pup. We live in a fenced area with four other dogs on the property, but two huskies are separated from our two dogs, another husky and a small a mix which are both friendly.
About: I have grown up my whole life with cats and dogs of all kinds. I love to follow the needs of the furry friend parents. I currently work a part-time job on the weekends, but other than that, I am very free through weekdays and able to constantly check on your furry friends and spend the nights. I do have two furry friends of my own to keep yours company. I have a fenced in backyard and many toys and dog beds.
About: Hello everyone! I’m an enthusiastic amateur photographer with a serious passion for capturing the unique personalities of dogs, cats, and all kinds of pets. I’m actively working to expand my pet photography portfolio and would love to create beautiful, heartfelt images of your furry family members. Whether it’s playful action shots in the park, cozy in-home portraits, or candid moments during a walk or playtime, I bring patience, treats, and a camera everywhere I go. I’m still building my collection, so I’m happy to offer very affordable (or even complimentary) photography sessions when you book me for dog walking, pet sitting, drop-ins, or overnight stays. I’m gentle, reliable, and genuinely love animals — your pets will be happy and relaxed while I snap some amazing shots you’ll treasure. From goofy zoomies to sweet sleepy cuddles, I aim to freeze those special moments in time. If you’re open to a sitter who also doubles as a pet photographer, let’s team up! Message me to chat about your pet’s personality and what kind of photos you’d love. Can’t wait to meet your four-legged friends and add more adorable images to my growing portfolio! 📸🐶🐱 I'm a retired veteran who has a lot of free time on his hands. I fostered animals while serving in the military and wanted to get back into caring for animals Always flexible with animals and the level of care/attention they require. More than willing to be out and about for a while or stay in because they're home bodies
“If you have a Belgian Malinois, Emily is your person. I've gone through several sitters here on Rover who never came back because they didn't or couldn't understand the breed, as they can be very intimidating. After all, they are military/police dogs. Emily was calm with meeting them, and shortly after they began to interact with her and offered her toys to play tug and fetch with them. At no time did Emily ever react with fear or uncertainty, and that's what you need from a sitter if you have one of these dogs or a Dutch Shepherd. She genuinely seemed interested and entertained spending time with us. She also showed up early, and was never in a rush to leave. Highly recommend her.”
“Lindsay was super responsive and so sweet to our pups! She helped us out last minute when our previous dog sitter moved unexpextedly. She sent great photos and our dogs looked happy to see her. She even brought our mail in the house! We had a great trip and didn't have to worry about our furry friends. We will definitely book her for our next trip. :)”
About: I’ve pet sat here and there for friends, to be honest I’m always concerned if I my care will be as up to par as their loving parents. I don’t have any training skills all I can offer is love and attention. And any special instruction offered. I currently work full time 7-4 Tuesday to Saturday. Sundays and Mondays are typically open. During the work week, nothing sounds better than a dog walk or a drop in visit 😊 I have indoor cats. No dogs allowed 😭 I long for a dog walk or a play. I’m new to this service, but I enjoy very much being around my friends dogs. It gives me such joy.
“Lemon had a great time hanging out with Raymond! He hung out with her for a full half hour on each visit and took lots of lovely photos, of both her and her brother, Bernie! And she said she had a really good time! ❤️”
“Kelsy is the absolute best! She was so good with our mini-golden, Harvey. Harvey loves it when Kelsy comes by to take him out because he knows he’s in for an absolute treat! Would definitely recommend Kelsy to anyone and we will certainly use her again!”
About: Hello fellow canine lovers! I'm a caring and kind animal sitter looking to walk and care for the extended family of a busy household. I have worked with fluffy pomeranians, energetic chihuahuas and intelligent labradoodles in the past, but have a deep understanding & respect for all dog breeds! I have experience with grooming (brushing and trimming), feeding and bathing dogs. I'm also great at teaching dogs new tricks! As a person, I am extremely clean, organized, responsible and have the ability to multi-task effectively. I am a quick communicator and will be able to send update photos while caring for your dogs! Additionally, I enjoy getting exercise and I don't mind jogging with dogs as well. I am also a cat owner for 20+ years and currently have 2 cats. I'm very flexible in scheduling and eager to work and I look forward to meeting your beloved four-legged pals! I’m currently working full-time, but on a hybrid schedule, so I have some flexibility. I am available on Mondays and every other Friday, as well as weekends. Let’s discuss what works for you! I am committed to safety and trust. Please let me know what rules you have for your furry friend, and I will gladly abide by them.
About: Through the years, I’ve taken every opportunity possible to care for the pets of family and friends. I’ve cat-sat, dog-sat, walked dogs, even walked cats in a stroller! My childhood dog was a lab mix named Oreo. She was the most wonderful dog, and I feel incredibly lucky that I got to spend the first 16 years of my life with her. She was a senior dog who required frequent assistance for the last four years of her life. I changed her dog diapers, gave her medication, applied skin ointment daily, etc. Whether it’s puppies or seniors, I’m happy to give them more attention and assistance. I have a dog named Fiona, who is a German Shepherd/Husky mix. I also have a cat named Fish. They are both incredibly high energy, so I definitely understand the importance of walks and play to get all those zoomies out! I have learned through my pets and others that they are all unique in their own ways. No two are the same, each has their own needs and personality. I love learning all their quirks, and I can’t wait to learn about your furry friends too! I’m currently a college student, but I am taking flexible, online courses. This means more time for me and your four-legged family members to play, walk, and have fun! As long as I’m left detailed and thorough instructions, I can care for a majority of dogs or cats 24/7. The only thing I cannot do is administer injectable medication. Every pet has different needs, so please be descriptive of what exactly your furry friends need for me to keep them happy and healthy :)

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Los Alamitos
Jennifer was absolutely wonderful, and we felt incredibly fortunate to have her caring for our cats while we were away. She took wonderful care of all four of our indoor cats—Layla, Koda, Meeka, and Bella—as well as the community cats we care for outside. It was obvious throughout the trip that she genuinely cared about their well-being rather than simply stopping by to complete the basics. We have a multi-cat household with several different personalities, needs, and a somewhat complicated feeding routine, and Jennifer handled everything with patience, diligence, and close attention to detail. Bella, our newest addition, was timid with her at first but seemed to warm up very quickly and form a real bond with her. Jennifer spent quality time playing with both Bella and Layla, which meant a great deal to us. Layla, our youngest, has significant trust issues after years of needing regular medication and will usually bolt as soon as a stranger enters the house. Seeing her become comfortable with Jennifer so quickly was unusual and incredibly reassuring. Cats can be very selective about people, particularly ours, so their responses told us a lot about Jennifer’s calm, gentle approach. We also truly appreciated that she didn’t forget about our outdoor community cats. She made sure they were fed, took time to interact and play with them, and included photos of them in her updates. Being able to see that they were also safe and cared for gave us an additional layer of reassurance while we were overseas. Our feeding setup includes several automatic wet-food machines, and Jennifer encountered an issue with one of them during the trip. She attempted to contact us, but because we were overseas and dealing with network problems, I unfortunately did not receive the call. She was resourceful, calmly worked through the problem, and was able to resolve it. She was also proactive about flagging any issues with the machines as they arose, which gave us confidence that she was paying close attention and making sure everything continued to function properly. Her updates were detailed, thoughtful, and communicative, and throughout our trip we felt confident that everyone was being genuinely well looked after. Coming home to happy, relaxed cats is always the best sign that they were in great hands. Even our more cautious cats greeted us when we returned, which told us they had felt safe and secure while we were gone. Jennifer also left us a thoughtful note summarizing how everyone did, which was such a kind personal touch and made us smile after a long day of traveling. We would absolutely trust Jennifer with our pets again and will not hesitate to book her for future trips. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone dependable, communicative, attentive, resourceful, and genuinely interested in spending time with animals—not just checking a box. She would be an especially wonderful choice for anyone with multiple pets, shy animals, complicated routines, or pets who need a little extra patience and care.
Bronte took a last-minute booking to look after our cat Pacho, which we really appreciated. She had no issues handling his picky eating and daily routine. She is reliable, communicative, and clearly loves animals. We would recommend her without hesitation to other pet parents!
This is my second time booking with Asmita to take care of my two cats, and once again, she provided amazing service. She is very easy to work with, attentive, and always made sure my cats were well taken care of. She regularly refilled their water, followed all of my requests and instructions, and even helped take care of my mail and packages, which I truly appreciated. What I appreciated the most was the constant updates through pictures and videos, which gave me peace of mind while traveling and being away from my cats. Most importantly, she spent quality time with them and made them feel comfortable and cared for. I will definitely continue working with Asmita whenever I travel, and her service has always been 100%.
OMG! I cannot even BEGIN to say how GRATEFUL I AM to have Jessica watch my furbabies! This is my 1st time using Rover & I wasn't worried for one MINUTE that they weren't in the BEST CARE! She made sure my guy got his insulin shots on TIME & even THOUGH the Princessa didn't HONOR Jessica with her presence, she was still so happy to see me when I got home & was no worse for wear! I would recommend her to anyone looking for caring, responsible person to take care of your precious babies, Jessica is it! You won't regret it!
I wanted to tip more but the app limited me? Brionna did a great job and she really helped out by picking up a few more days when I was stuck in Barbados airport with all flights canceled for 3days! Crazy East Coast weather! I recommend using her services as she is professional and thorough. Thank you Brionna!
We love Candy! Candy did great taking care of my kitten and my medically complicated rat. She was able to perform more complicated medical tasks for the rat without difficulty. My pets loved her and she went above and beyond, even stopping to check on my roof to make sure it wasn’t leaking during the rainstorm.
Whitney is the best! So sweet with the animals, and very communicative and sweet with us, too😄 We used her for drop-in kitty visits this time (we use dog walking as well), and will definitely use her again. Whitney makes traveling and being away from the animals very easy.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.
