“Brittany was so wonderful and very communicative. My dog seemed to be in very good hands and Brittany gave me complete confidence she was safe. There were plenty of toys and cuddles given and Riley really enjoyed playing with Brittany’s dog, Mickey and Minnie. I will definitely be using Brittany’s services again. I cannot fault her!”
“Roxy was fantastic! Carmy had the best time there. She was super accommodating and responsive. I feel extremely comfortable having Roxy watch Carmy overnight. Will 100% be a repeat client. Thank you Roxy”
“Rachel was the best with my baby Tashi! Overall smooth and great experience taking care of my Tashi and getting her back to me with a wagging tail and smiles! Definitely rebooking 🤍✨”
“This is my first time using Rover, and our first experience having our dog being taken care of by another. It was crucial for us to find a dog caretaker for him, and Alicia's profile page stood out to me the most. She and her kids took care of Rocky as if he was their own and that means alot to us. Alicia kept us updated on Rockys daily activities and snuggles. I am so happy and blessed to have found her on Rover. If there is any other future needs, we definitely have Rocky stay with her.”
“Megan and Joshua took such amazing care of my baby! They were super communicative with me the entire time and sent me so many pictures and updates which I greatly appreciated. I would absolutely use them again next time I need a sitter for my pup!”
“Vicky was absolutely fantastic with my pup Stella. She is normally a pretty shy dog, but Vicky went above and beyond to make sure she was comfortable and happy. I got updates multiple times a day and Vicky asked many questions prior to me dropping her off to ensure she had a good understanding of what Stella was like and what she enjoyed doing. I was nervous about leaving Stella for the weekend because my pup was getting over a UTI and the sitter would need to give Stella her daily antibiotics but Vicky made sure she understood how to do that and it went flawlessly. It felt like Vicky truly took care of Stella how I would’ve taken care of her.”
“Mai is very sweet. She took care and kept my dog safe and sound. She kept us updated and was very fast with communication. She sent pictures of our dog so we wouldn’t be worried. She provided good nutrition when our dog didn’t eat. Will definitely plan to have her watch Linus again!!”
“We’re very happy with the care Bethanie provided for our dog during a 2 week stay. She welcomed Mia as part of her family in that time and provided frequent updates to us. Thank you Bethanie!!”
“Rene is absolutely wonderful. Our dog is quite old now and the love, patience, and care she shows her truly means everything to us. From the start Rene has been reliable and incredibly attentive and it’s clear she genuinely loves what she does. We trust her completely and feel so grateful to have found someone who treats our dog like her own. We’ve been over the moon happy with Rene and cannot recommend her highly enough!”
“Ryan treated my pup so well! I gave detailed instructions on how to help care for his eyes (he can’t see well and gets eye build-up) and he came back exactly how I left him, perfectly clean. My pup sometimes gets anxiety diarrhea at a new sitter, but he didn’t have that at all when I got him back! Daily updates were great. I will definitely be booking again.”
“Repeat customer here - Andrew and his family did a great job again boarding my pup. Rocky got lots of walks, belly rubs, and treats, and absolutely loves staying with them. Andrew is our go-to pet-sitter!”
“Carol and daughter provided all the comforts of home for our Poppy. They reported she was happy to go on walks and welcomed her to fit right in with their family. I recommend Carol highly and hope to use her services in the future.”
“Jess & Max were great sitters for my pup Rocky! We had a meet & greet and Rocky immediately loved them, so I knew he’d be in good hands the following day. They were super communicative and flexible which was appreciated since my schedule was up in the air. Would definitely book them again!”
“Katherine took great care of my puppy. She is very patient and kind. She sent me photos and kept me updated on how our puppy was doing. I highly recommend her.”
“Mia was so wonderful with Brady! She took lots of photos and videos, so I could see all of his adventures with her as they were happening. She gave my pup all her love and attention! She is fantastic!”
“Lucy had the best time with Sloane! She settled in right away. They went on lots of walks and had tons of snuggle time; we could tell Lucy loved her time with a Sloane. Sloane was very responsive and gave a few updates per day which we really appreciated. We wouldn’t hesitate to book again! This matters a lot to use because Lucy can be reactive in certain situations and Sloane made us feel confident in her care.”
About: We’re a dog-loving family with two friendly pups who enjoy welcoming new friends. Our calm home has a securely fenced backyard for safe play and plenty of cozy time indoors. We love being home when we can and make sure every dog feels safe, relaxed, and truly cared for. During the week, I’m a teacher with a consistent 8–4 schedule and can come home at lunch for extra attention and snuggles. On weekends, we spend most of our time at home. Dogs enjoy safe access to cozy indoor spaces and our fully fenced backyard. Our home is calm, loving, and thoughtfully set up so every dog feels secure, relaxed, and cared for throughout the day. We care for each pet based on their individual needs and routines. If your dog is crate-trained or prefers to be crated, we’re happy to accommodate that. Our own dogs are crated at night as part of their sleep routine, so we’re very comfortable with crate training and nighttime routines. During the day, dogs enjoy a calm home environment with safe access to indoor spaces and our fully fenced backyard. We closely follow your feeding, walking, medication, and care instructions, and provide plenty of attention and affection.
“Leo was fantastic with Prince. We truly appreciate the care and attention he gave him, and it was clear that Prince felt comfortable and happy in his care. Leo left such positive energy with Prince, and we would absolutely look forward to having Prince stay with him again in the future.”
“Colin was a great choice. He provided regular updates and photos throughout her stay, which we really appreciated. Our dog can be a handful at times, but he handled her energetic personality with ease. She came back calm and happy, so we know she had a great experience with him. We definitely plan to book with him again!”
Mar Vista dog parents share their Rover experiences
Greg was a great sitter for our 70 lb Staffy. After a sudden cancelation from our first confirmed sitter we had to find a new one last minute so we hurried to contact Greg who was more than willing to help us. He responded lightning fast to our messages and we were booked with him same day. Our doggy was well taken care of and super relaxed on pickup day. If we ever need a sitter in the future we will not hesitate to contact Greg! Thanks again - take care!
Travis is one of the only people in the world who I trust to take care of Chicken. She clearly loves him (and his partner!) and has such a great time when she gets to sleepover at his house. Travis always sends the best daily "Chicken reports" that keep me up to date on all the goings on, along with pictures - and he's super quick to respond any time I reach out. Can't recommend Travis enough!
I can’t recommend Brittany enough! This was my first time booking with her/leaving my pup for a full week, and she made the entire experience completely stress-free. She was incredibly flexible and accommodating when my travel plans changed, which I appreciated so much. She sent really thoughtful updates and lots of photos throughout the day! It was clear how caring and attentive she is, and Charles looked so happy and comfortable - he especially loved spending time with her pups. I will definitely be rebooking!!
Irena was absolutely fantastic with Bailey. Communication was easy and consistent, and she provided plenty of updates throughout the stay, which I really appreciated. I always felt confident knowing Bailey was in great hands. She was reliable, attentive, and clearly cares a lot about the dogs she watches. Bailey was happy, well cared for, and comfortable the entire time. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and thoughtful sitter!
Liv was amazing! We just adopted Thumper and he came from a hoarding case and is extremely head shy and timid with people. She was so amazing with her communication and sending of photos. She was so patient and understanding of our shy little guy. She is amazing and would recommend her to anyone looking for excellent care for their small dog!
Rachel took great care of Katsu, she was very sweet, communicative and flexible with pick up and drop off times. She sent regular updates and photos and went above and beyond to pick up supplies I forgot to pack. Katsu had a great time staying with her, I would definitely recommend Rachel to take care of your pets.
We honestly couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter for Lola. From start to finish, Arim and her husband were absolutely amazing. We received multiple updates every single day, including photos and videos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were traveling. They asked thoughtful questions whenever needed, so it was clear Lola’s care was always their top priority. On top of that, they went above and beyond playing with Lola and taking her on long walks and runs. Lola was clearly happy, loved, and so well cared for. We would 100% trust them again and recommend them to anyone looking for exceptional care for their pup.
Mary was absolutely amazing with Nana! We reached out to her last minute, and she was incredibly responsive and happy to arrange a meet and greet. She treated Nana like part of her own family and provided wonderful care along with daily updates and photos. I couldn’t recommend her more to anyone looking for a loving and reliable sitter for their furry babies. 🐾💛
Teri was amazing and we felt really comfortable leaving our senior dog with her. Great communication and sending updates about our dog. Taking care of a senior dog you need a lot of patience and Teri exceeded our expectations. Thank you! Will definitely book with Teri again.
