“Angelique was flexible, communicative, and super loving with our dogs. She was willing to come walk/meet the dogs prior and get to know them and our house. Her messages during the trip were informative, reassuring and had pics to make it easy to know our pups were doing well. We’ll definitely be adding her to who we reach out to for future trips. Thank you!”


“Erica babysat our furbabies for a few days while we were away. She took very good care of them and took them on daily walks. Erica was punctual and made our trip away very stress free. Our pups seemed to really like her and the cat enjoyed her company as well. Would definitely hire Erica again and reccommend her for fur-loving services.”


“Victoria was great with our dog! She watched her while we were at a wedding and was super accommodating and flexible with our timing, based on Bella’s energy, it was clear Victoria treated her well. She was really respectful of our home as well and I’d definitely call Victoria again to watch Bella in the future.”


“Natalie was amazing! She took great care of the dogs, including a troublesome puppy, and was super respectful of the house, the schedule, and our time! She took the request last-minute which was great and she was flexible and experienced with handling my dogs’ varying energy levels. She also contacted me right away when there was an issue and handled it like a pro! Would definitely book again & recommend.”


“Sarah was fantastic with our 2 dogs, including our high energy pit bull who is a handful. She had no problem dealing with their specific needs, feeding them and giving their medications according to our instructions. She house-sat the dogs in our home and she left the house clean and just as she found it. She watered our flowers and took out our trash bins, and brought in our mail. It's so hard to find someone you trust to be in your home while you are away and to take good care of your beloved pets, so I'm so happy to have found Sarah. She is really amazing. She is very organized and willing to help out any way she can. I really appreciate all of her help. Bonus, her own pit mix is such a sweetheart!”


“Katie did an excellent job of cat sitting/house sitting while I was on vacation for a week. I felt at ease knowing she was there to look after my cats, and they were comfortable with her. One of them even took naps in her lap. The photos were very sweet. I will definately be using Katie again on my next vacation.”


“Francis was a fantastic sitter for our dog and cat, we could not have asked for better person to look after them. Francis was meticulous from the beginning, I appreciated the initial meeting where we could share important details to ensure a right fit. During the stay he was extremely diligent, and even changed his schedule to fit with our cat’s medication timings. He was gentle and loving to both of our pets and provided us continuous updates. We could not recommend him enough and have already rebooked him for our next trip out of town.”


“This is the second time we've had Inha dogsit for us and she's been fantastic both times. Our pups usually take a while to get accustomed to new people, but they both clearly really like Inha. She's also very communicative and responsive. Will hopefully have a chance to get her to sit our pups again!”


About: I have my own dogs and treat them like they’re my children. I go out on walks pretty often and workout outside with my dogs just to stick with them. I can work anytime and any day except Friday and Saturday nights due to my part time job but any other day during the week is great! I play with them a lot, give treats but not too much, I watch tv with my dog and they seem to enjoy it as much as me!

“Adi watched after our three dogs for 2.5 weeks. He is excellent with puppies and geriatric dogs. He is dependable and communicates well. I highly recommend him and will most definitely will use him again.”


“Fortunately for my cats and I, Justin was available to house sit due to an unexpected cancellation. It was a distressing time for me, but I felt reassured when Jistin arrived at the home and tended to the cats needs right away. I am grateful for Justin's prompt reply to my inquiries and professionalism.”


About: I’ve been an animal lover since I was about four years old, and caring for pets has always been a natural part of my life. Over the years, I’ve raised and cared for a wide variety of animals—from chameleons, birds, and rabbits to cats and dogs of all sizes and breeds. I’ve grown up around larger breeds like Pitbulls, German Shepherds, and American Bulldogs, so I’m confident and comfortable handling strong, high-energy dogs just as much as more sensitive or exotic animals. What truly sets me apart is my hands-on experience with pets who have complex health needs. My sweet French Bulldog, Luna, has IVDD, GI sensitivities, seasonal allergies, recurrent UTIs, and has even battled sarcomas. Her care has taught me how to be deeply attentive, gentle, and proactive, and has inspired me to continually educate myself about animal health—from preventive care to chronic illness management. I’m experienced in giving medications, managing restricted diets, adapting physical routines, and keeping a close eye on subtle changes in behavior or comfort. I believe pets deserve to feel safe, understood, and loved, no matter what they’re going through. Even animals that are shy, stubborn, reactive, or hard to read tend to warm up to me—maybe because I meet them with patience, calm energy, and genuine love. Whether they’re high-energy or low-maintenance, I learn their rhythms and give them the care and attention they need to thrive. I’ve also worked with delicate animals like chameleons, who are highly sensitive to their environment and require a careful, knowledgeable approach. Whether your pet is furry, scaly, feathered, big, small, or somewhere in between—I’ve got the experience, heart, and adaptability to keep them happy, healthy, and stress-free. I’m also very reasonable, reliable, and responsive. I know how important it is to find someone you can fully trust with your pet. I’d be honored to give you peace of mind—and give your pet the attention, comfort, and fun they deserve while you get a well-earned break from being a full-time pet parent. 💛 Pet care fits naturally into my routine because it’s something I genuinely enjoy and prioritize. I’m available weekends, and weekdays after 4:30 PM, with the exception of Tuesdays and Thursdays. Whether it’s a quick walk, a longer visit, or a few hours of play and care, I make sure each pet gets the time, attention, and affection they need. I plan ahead and stay flexible so I can offer dependable care, even on short notice when needed. When caring for pets—whether in my home or my client’s—I focus on creating a safe, calm, and loving environment tailored to each animal’s unique needs. I’m especially experienced in managing more complicated care routines, thanks to my day-to-day life with Luna, my Frenchie who has IVDD, GI sensitivities, recurrent UTIs, seasonal allergies, and a history of sarcomas. Her care has made me detail-oriented, patient, and highly attuned to subtle signs of discomfort or health changes. I follow all feeding, medication, and activity instructions carefully and make sure the environment is clean, secure, and free of hazards—especially for pets with mobility or health limitations. I respect your pet’s usual routine and maintain clear, consistent communication with owners so you feel informed and confident every step of the way. Building trust—with both pets and their people—is always my top priority, and I treat every animal with the same level of love and care I give my own.

About: I am a responsible, empathetic, and dedicated dog caregiver, committed to animal well-being. I have experience handling dogs of various breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I make sure every pet receives personalized attention, proper exercise, scheduled feeding, and plenty of affection while under my care. My key strengths include patience, keen observation of behavioral cues, and the ability to build a bond of trust with animals. I strictly follow the owner's instructions and maintain consistent communication to provide peace of mind and reliability. I currently work part-time, so I have time to share with your pet. I also have the support of my daughter and wife, who will make your pet feel at home. I have a fenced garden, my pet will be great company for your pet and my daughter's love for animals will make your pet's stay a pleasant and enjoyable place.

About: All animals tend to love me, I have not met a animal that has never liked me, even the most timid animals feel comfortability when come in contact with me I do online schooling, so dog walking would be the best side hussle to take on to earn that extra money on my own time. I care for pets like any other owner would, which is feeding, playing and walking. May even bathe them if they are needed after playing or walking

“Elissa is a wonderful, kind hearted person and we are very appreciative of the care she showed our dog Lucy. She also left a very nice and thoughtful review with many pictures of her day with Lucy. We feel very lucky to have found Elissa!”


“Cashja was great with our two dogs, even though one of them is a blind senior and has lots of needs. We'll definitely ask her for her help again next time we're out of town.”

Reyna C.
“I’ve had the pleasure of knowing Reyna Campos for several years, and I can say with full confidence that she is one of the most loving, reliable, and responsible pet caregivers I’ve ever met. She treats dogs with patience, compassion, and genuine joy. She has looked after my own pets on numerous occasions, and each time I return home to a happy, well-cared-for fur babies. From daily walks and feeding schedules, one which includes medications, to playtime and cuddles, Reyna handles every task with professionalism and care. She also pays close attention to details and is quick to notice if something seems “off,” which gives me enormous peace of mind when I’m away. Any pet owner would be lucky to have Reyna looking after their furry friend. I can’t recommend her highly enough for a position on Rover.com—she's truly a natural with animals and a trustworthy person through and through. Sincerely, Linda Ontai”

Inga took great care of my two senior girls one of which has a few medical issues and requires medication 3 times a day. She sent updates with photos and I could see both dogs were being well cared for. Inga has such a bright and positive energy about her and it's evident that she loves dogs and they love her! I was able to enjoy my time away with zero concerns or worries. If you have senior dogs you know what a gift that is! I will definitely book with Inga again and I can't recommend her enough. Thank you Inga for taking such wonderful care of my girls!

We had Estelle watch our senior dog Dillon while we went on a trip and she was super communicative and he loved having her around. We even felt safe when there was a brush fire down the street from our house and I was giving her the Watchduty updates in real-time. Thanks again!

Claudia is wonderful!! When I got home, the dogs were relaxed. For me, that's a sign of good pet sitting. They are comfortable with Claudia and her care. The pictures Claudia sent me showed that they were doing well. My dogs are getting older and need medication, which Claudia handled well. I will book her again!

Felicia did a wonderful job taking care of my puppy Leroy on such short notice. She left me some toys that he absolutely adores and kept me updated throughout the weekend. She also gave me some great advice and feedback on some things she noticed about him and how I can take care of it.

These guys are great! I could tell they had good energy when they came over for a meet and greet before we left on our trip. We needed house/dog sitters and we returned to happy pups and a clean house. We enjoyed our trip knowing our fuzzy babies were safe and sound. They sent us pictures throughout the week and even washed the bed sheets so we didn't have to worry about cleaning when we arrived back home. It was a great experience with these guys and we will use them again for sure!

We are so lucky to have found Angie. One of our two dogs can be very skiddish with new people but they both took to Angie almost instantly so that eased all my worries of leaving them behind for a whole week. Angie is a good communicator. She sent lots of daily photos. She took our instructions/suggestions well. She left our home clean & orderly. We are truly grateful for her help!

Giana did an amazing job while I was away for seven days. I would definitely have her back again. My dogs and cats absolutely adored her and she kept me updated on a daily basis with photos and videos. I was initially worried about having someone stay at my home, but I had nothing to worry about. She took good care of my pets and my home. If I could give her more than 5 stars I definitely would!

Kan was great with my Kuma dog. He accepted my request which was a little last minute, and even though my dog who is becoming more senior (9 yrs), is not socialized well with people and is usually afraid of men, by the end of my trip, I could tell she absolutely loved him and would miss him when coming back to me. He was very flexible and allowed me to do a transition where she would stay at my place for a few nights and then he would bring her to his place once she became more used to him. I think it helped her with being less stressed in a new environment, and as I said, I think he was very patient and she felt she could trust him. I’m so grateful I could find such an understanding and patient dog sitter to look after Kuma while I was away. I also received such cute pictures of her!
