“Just picked up my pup from Robin & Rahn. They sent daily pics and videos and it was obvious that Freddie loved his stay with them. I felt so comfortable leaving him with them and will use their services again, if I need too.”


“Araceli did an amazing job with our dog Punky! She was incredibly responsive and accommodating of our dog's needs. Her home is also incredibly dog friendly--would definitely recommend to others looking for a pet sitter.”


“Appreciate Zannah and Doug so much for taking care of Leo. Leo has always been a shy pup and to see him become so comfortable with the two of them eased my mind while I was on vacation. I will be using them again!”

I would definitely recommend Emma and next time I’m in San Diego and need a pet sitter will be booking with her :)”

Taruna was also incredibly accommodating, which made me feel confident that Gigi was in great hands. Gigi seemed happy and relaxed the entire time. When she got home, she was totally wiped and went straight to bed—which only happens after she's had a fun and exciting day! We’re definitely looking forward to booking with Taruna again.”

About: I have taken care of dogs my whole life -- both my own dogs and as the go-to sitter for friends, family, colleagues, and neighbors. Across my extensive time caring for dogs, I have gained experience with dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I am particularly good with nervous or timid dogs, and I am very comfortable with dogs who have special medical needs. Last year I had to say goodbye to my own greatly beloved dog after two years of very intense cancer care. While I am not ready for a new dog of my own yet, I am eager to shower other people's dogs with affection and care. I have a very flexible schedule and am available for dog care most days. On days listed as available, I am able to spend almost all of the time at home with the dog(s). I do not currently have any other animals in the home, and your dog will receive my full attention! I have a wide variety of dog beds for them to try out and toys for them to play with.

About: Hi there! I am total animal lover who treats every pet like my own. Whether it’s belly rubs, fun walks, or cuddle time on the couch, I’m here to make your fur baby feel safe, and loved while you’re away! Big or small, shy or playful— I’ve got patience, energy, and lots of love to give! 🐾💛 I can’t promise I won’t be sad when they go back home… I work night shifts on the weekends, typically Friday through Sunday nights. My shifts usually run from late evening to early morning hours. During the weekdays (Monday–Thursday), I’m off and available during the day and evening. I adjust my sleep schedule as needed to stay well-rested and reliable, and I make sure to prioritize any commitments I take on with plenty of time and energy! The same way you care for your pet at home is how I’ll care for them at mine! With love, comfort, and their usual routine to help them feel safe and happy!

“Marissa was so sweet and instantly made me feel comfortable leaving my dog with her while on a Mexican vacation. I got a few photos throughout the stay, George was a happy boy and he now has a new buddy Luna. I would 💯 use her services again. Thank you Marissa!”


“Alyssa was terrific. She kept me updated with photos and stories of Stella. I didn't worry about her the entire time as they always kept me informed on her daily multiple walks and potty breaks. Stella slept-in this morning, so I would say they really wore her out. Thank you for taking such good care of her.”

Marina dog parents share their Rover experiences
Alexa made me feel super confident and comfortable that Gryffin was in good hands while I was away. She was super responsive and sent photo and video updates of my dog. It looked & sounded like he had a great time! Would trust and ask Alexa to watch Gryffin in the future!!

Jordan was wonderful and took both of my dogs. She was communicative, sent photos regularly, and kept me updated throughout their stay with her. In the photos I could tell my dogs were relaxed and happy (especially when she took them to Kate Sessions). Thank you Jordan, and highly recommend!

Austyn & Laurel were absolutely amazing and accommodated a last minute request after previous arrangements fell through. They sent lots of photo updates and it was evident that they were taking such great care of Bourbon (and that he was having a blast!). Thank you both for keeping us at ease while we were out of town, we really appreciate it! We will definitely reach out again in the future - Bourbon is already missing his new friend Archie!

Karen was wonderful and a great communicator! I felt so at ease while Pepper was in her care. She sent updates and pictures. Her experience and love for animals truly shined and we look forward to booking with her in the future. Thank you Karen, Pepper had a blast with you!

She was absolutely wonderful—so flexible, kind, and attentive! She took such great care of my pup with plenty of walks, playtime, and consistent updates that gave me total peace of mind. I could tell he was happy and well cared for. I’d highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!

We could not possibly be happier with Alisenes' care and love boarding our dog Lily. We received updates on how everything was going on a daily basis -- including photos of how much Lily was enjoying Aiisene's own dogs. Although Alisene does not have her own yard, she lives in a great neighborhood conducive to long dog walks and they had several each day. Lily clearly enjoyed her stay with Alsiene and her dogs -- she even baked some very special dog treats for Lily. We would not hesitate to book another boarding in the future!

I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter! She was friendly, warm, and truly cared for my pup as if he were her own. During the 6 nights I was away, she sent daily updates with adorable pictures and thoughtful notes, so I always knew how he was doing. She took him on frequent walks and outings, played fetch, and made sure all his needs were met. mind. Lourdes is the best!!!! I highly recommend, your pet will be in great hands! !

We highly recommend Beth. We had another Rover cancel on us at the last minute but we are very happy we connected with Beth. Beth was very communicative and sent daily photo updates. Both of our dogs looked like they were throughly enjoying themselves at the park and in her home. Beth was also very flexible with our late night pickup/drop off times. We would definitely book with Beth again.

Marisol was so loving and attentive with my senior dog, Maddy. Even when a few little hiccups popped up during the stay, she handled them with such kindness and care. She kept in touch the whole weekend, sending updates that truly put my mind at ease. I could tell Maddy felt safe and cared for in her hand.

In brief: Brittany is a very reliable and caring pet sitter! Top notch! In detail: After an overnight trial, we felt comfortable enough with Brittany to leave our dog with her for 3 weeks while we were out of the country. That's a big ask, as we would not be able to hop back over if anything went wrong. Brittany was very friendly and easy going from the start, with clear and fast communication through Rover's portal and SMS. On drop-off, she took the time to listen and get to know Eevee's needs. During the care period, she was generous with pictures and videos, which not only showed us that our dog was fine, but that Brittany was caring for her as we would, and both seemed to be enjoying their time together. Very importantly, while our dog did show some signs of mild anxiety during this period, Brittany was quick to provide a frank and calm assessment and rapid communication, which was reassuring and allowed us to support her remotely. Upon return, our dog seemed to be doing very well and was very comfortable with Brittany. In summary: We are very lucky to have found Brittany on Rover, as this provides us with the peace of mind of having a trustworthy dog sitter if we have to travel again without our dog.
