“Thanya was absolutely wonderful! She took great care of Molly and sent lots of pictures / updates. She also noticed an issue with my dog that led me to make vet appointment and now Molly is on the path to healing. I highly recommend Thanya and hope to use her again.”
“Taylor was amazing! We have an anxious pup who is not used to being left. Our pup was anxious at first but quickly warmed to Taylor. Taylor took great care of her and sent many pictures along the way. We highly recommend!!”
“I can’t say enough about Nick. He is the standard of excellence. I know my pups are always safe and happy while with him. He is very communicative from his daily updates with witty commentary and pics to answering questions. By the end of his stay with our dogs, he begins to feel more like a friend. We’ve had him watch our dogs twice and will base future vacations off his availability because of how much we appreciate his services.”
“Colleen is amazing! Not only did she take care of our dogs for two weeks while we were out of the country, she kept our house plants watered, and the house was nice and clean when we got back! We would love to have her take care of our two pups when we travel again! Thank you so much Colleen!”
About: I love animals. I have had animals in my life since before I could walk. I grew up with cats, and dogs in my home since I was a child. I fostered my friends dog for more than 4yrs. I have a rescue cat name Lucy, she is a rescue from Whisker Town Cats. I know how to administer medication for cats, and dogs. I would love to watch your fur family for you. I am a part time swim instructor I work during the week, and the weekends from 8am- 1:30 PM. I am available for dog walking/sitting anytime after 2:00pm during the week, and weekends. I have done pet sitting in the clients home. I fed the cats, fish, walked the dog. I once watched my friends dog over a weekend. I fed his dog on their scheduled time and walked the dog many times it was a lot of fun!!! I am very cautious when I am with a clients pet. I treat every pet as if they were my own.
“Jonathan has a clear love for animals and he did a tremendous job with our dog and cat. Great updates, very timely and house was spotless. Would highly recommend, in fact, we are already hiring him for a second job in a few weeks!!!!”
“Yelena was great, easy to reach and communicate with. Skai loved her and she even left her a new toy to play with! You can tell she is very experienced with dogs especially being that Skai can be very hyper but it did not seem to bother her at all. I would definitely book again, she made things very easy and smooth thank you :)”
“Gabrielle was wonderful! Our Dog Liberty had so much fun with her, she even got her to walk on her leash and walks without pulling, which we can never do, so not only did she do a great job walking and taking care of her, she was teaching/training her as well! We got tons of pics and videos and updates and she left our house nice and clean when she was done! We will definitely be using her again and trust her anytime with our pup!”
“Makenna dog sat for us for 4 nights and was great! She sent pictures daily and kept me in the loop. Dogs seemed happy as ever! She also was a great guest - stripped the bed before leaving and kept the house tidy. Will be rebooking. Thanks again!!!”
“Sarah is the best! She took such great care of our 3 dogs while we were out of town and was so wonderful sending daily picture updates! We will definitely be having her come back again!”
About: Hi! My name is Jack :) I have spent the past several years working as a veterinary technician, caring for animals in a professional medical setting. I have experience with puppies, kittens, senior pets, and pets with medical needs. I love building trust with animals and helping them feel comfortable and secure. My goal is to provide the same level of care and attention that I would want for my own pets, so you can travel with confidence knowing they’re in good hands. 🐾 I strive to be flexible and accommodate your pet’s routine as closely as possible. Whether your pet needs morning, afternoon, evening, or overnight care, I will work with you to ensure their feeding, exercise, medication, and enrichment schedules are maintained. Consistency is important for both cats and dogs, and my goal is to keep their day-to-day routine familiar and stress-free while you’re away. I am happy to discuss your pet’s specific needs and create a care plan that works best for them. Your pet’s safety and well-being are my top priorities. As a veterinary technician with several years of experience, I am trained to recognize signs of illness, injury, or distress and respond appropriately. I provide a calm, patient, and low-stress environment tailored to each pet’s individual needs. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, senior, or requires medication, I will treat them with the same care and attention I give my own pets. You can expect reliable communication, regular updates, and peace of mind knowing your pet is being cared for by an experienced animal care professional.

About: Hi! I’m a true animal lover with a big heart for both dogs and cats. I understand that pets are family, and I treat every animal in my care with the same love, patience, and attention I would give my own. Whether your pup needs long walks and playtime or your cat prefers quiet companionship and gentle care, I’m happy to match their unique personality and routine. I currently work part-time and have a flexible schedule, which allows me to accommodate drop-in visits and pet sitting in your home. Whether your puppy needs patience, playtime, and consistency, or your senior dog needs a slower pace and extra TLC, I have experience providing attentive, compassionate care for both. I’m happy to follow your pet’s routine closely, provide regular updates and photos, and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. My goal is to give you peace of mind and keep your furry family members happy in their own familiar environment.
“Kaia was wonderful with my pitbull Guillermo. He took to her immediately and loved his time with her. Guillermo can sometimes refuse to eat when he is upset and he had no issues with Kaia. She even made sure to put on his glowing collar for his walk after dark. Highly recommend and will be booking many overnight stays in my home with Kaia.”

“Wonderful house sitter & took terrific care of our cat Oscar. Deborah leapt in to help us on short notice when another Rover sitter bailed the night before she was due to start. My wife and I highly recommend Deborah and would be happy to use her again.”
About: Hello neighbor! I would love to be your four pawed family member's newest bff. I have years of experience caring for dogs, and currently work with Fairytail Petcare services as a dog's plus one to their owner's weddings, and formerly on other pet care service apps. I have lots of experience with a variety of dogs; different breeds, sizes, and temperaments. My own dog struggles with strangers, so I understand how difficult it can be to find a dog walker that understands dog body language, and pet consent. Please feel free to message me with any questions you may have, I'm excited for the opportunity to care for your beloved family member. I have full availability, please send a request and I'll let you know if I'm available during that visit if I'm not already booked. Thanks! I treat your home how I would like my home to be treated. If you would like me to remove my shoes at the door, I'm happy to do so. Whatever makes you the most comfortable so your dog can receive the care they need.
New Malibu pet parents share their Rover experiences
I can’t even begin to stress just how amazing Taylor is, but I’ll give it a go. This was our first time ever using a non family member to watch our pup, who is a bit older and has some medical issues. It was our wedding week, so naturally we were stressed, but from day 1 Taylor was so communicative. Photos, updates, questions all throughout the day - it was incredible! The really big thing for us though, was just how she followed the schedule we left for her and nala to the minute! We will absolutely be using Taylor again!!!!
Danii took excellent care of our 15-year-old dog, Ghetta, in our home for 26 days. She was always quick to respond and consistently sent photos, videos, and daily progress reports. Danii handled Ghetta’s medication and special needs with remarkable attention. We came home to a spotless house and a very happy dog. She even waited for us when our flight was delayed, which we truly appreciated. Thank you so much!
If there was a “10 star” review, I’d rate Sarah a 10! Sarah took excellent care of my puppy Beau. She communicated with me daily, sent photos, kept me aware of walks and feedings. Sarah house sat for me and when I returned home, the house was immaculate. Prior to my trip, I had asked Sarah to meet with Beau one more time so that he knew her. She made time for us out of her busy work day. Beau took to Sarah right away! Thank you so much for taking such good care of “my baby”
Outstanding care for Juuls. Couldn't recommend Alinna more highly. We were so happy with Alinna's care for our home and Juuls while we were away. As a nervous pet owner, it can be stressful to leave our furry friend, but Alinna put us at ease from the very beginning. She is incredibly reliable, professional, and humorous keeping our pet's routine perfectly. We especially loved the daily updates with photos. It was such a comfort to see Juuls looking so happy and relaxed in every update. Not only did she provide top-notch care for our pet, but they also took excellent care of our home. We returned to a happy animal and a pristine house. We wouldn't hesitate to book Alinna again and recommend them wholeheartedly to any pet owner. 💯💫💫💫
I don’t have enough words to express how grateful we are for Mariza. This was our first time having a pet sitter and Mariza eased our worry. She sent photos and updates of our girls throughout the day. When we came back home the girls were happy not only to see us but you could tell that they were left in awesome hands. We will be reaching out to Mariza for any future house sitting.
Samantha and Sheremn are very sweet. Samantha took good care of my two dogs and home during in house setting. Our flight got canceled and they were able to work with us to take good care of my two dogs for a few more days. We will definitely rebook with them in the future!
