“Had a last minute trip and Melanie was able to accommodate us. She was very informative, sent pictures and let us know how she was doing. I would love to use Melanie again when we are in town.”

“Andre was great! Booked him on short notice, felt so comfortable leaving my boys with him. Our Adonis is recovering from surgery and he accommodated to his needs. Will definitely use his service again!”

“Our dogs had the best time at Joseph and Chris’ home. We were in town just for the weekend and Joseph and Chris were very accommodating in hosting our pups while we went to the zoo. Communication leading up to the visit, and during their stay was phenomenal. Once we picked up our dogs, they fell asleep immediately, which is always a sign of a good time!”


About: Hello! I’ve been a dog owner all my life. This is the first year not owning a dog anymore, but as much as I want another, I figured it’s time to help others take care of their loved pups! I have so much passion and love for animals. I have always been the so called “dog whisperer” in my family. I’ve spent a lot of time dog sitting as well for families I know. I’m excited to get to know other dogs! I work at a restaurant Wednesdays- Sundays for 4 hours a day. I am at home a lot and available majority of my weeks. I go on lots of walks and prioritize being outside, so with this lifestyle, your dog would love me! I have a fenced apartment. I have a dog park down the street and live in a safe neighborhood with lots of grass around. I do not have grass at my apartment, but do around me and on my street. I live with two roommates who are also dog lovers and great people. I treat pets like I do my roommates: with love, care and respect.

“Shai and Norman did a fantastic job in taking care of Angi, I love that they insist on a meet and greet. I’m so glad they take them on walks throughout the day. Angi felt very comfortable staying with them, They communicated with lots of photos and remarks throughout the day, I highly recommend them.”

About: I have taken care of animals on and off since I was a teenager, and now have the time do so more! I am able to spend ample time with your pet as I am remotely working. I am working remotely and spend all day at the house, meaning I have the ability to be with animals for more of the day. I would be able to care for pets in your home. I am able to travel throughout the day as needed for potty breaks and walks.

“We've been taking our 7 month old puppy to Sam at least once a week for the past 2ish months. He is awesome. He was patient and gentle with my puppy when she first started coming and was quite nervous. He is very responsive via text too. Our pup has a ton of fun playing around in his yard and he keeps the group small (2-4 dogs I think) so she wasn't overly intimated.”

“Zaira was a great sitter and provided several photos during my dogs day care with her. I would recommend her to others and plan to book with her again in the future.”

“William is super awesome. He took great care of our young pup and was a very cool and funny guy to boot. He was definitley flexible and super responsive. He’ll be a great buddy for my buddy going forward.”

“Derya K. was excellent with our Cockapoo who stayed at her house. She played with our pup, walked him, and gave him his dinner. She sent lots of photos and videos so I could see that he was having a good time.”

“I’m so glad that I found Lucy to take care of my pup. The attentiveness and care is exactly what I’ve be been for in a sitter and walker. She even took care of an emergency ER visit while I was away on vacation. Would highly recommend Lucy for any type of dog care!”

“Alvin was able to accommodate my puppy last minute which I was grateful for. He is very responsive and a great communicator. I received updates and photos throughout the day which was appreciated. My puppy seemed to have had a great time and came home tired which is always a good sign! I would highly recommend him as a sitter!”

About: I grew up on a rescue farm, so caring for animals has always been second nature to me, and I’ve truly never met one I didn’t adore. I’ll treat your dog like one of my own! I have experience fostering and dog-sitting pups of all ages, from playful puppies to sweet seniors. I’m also comfortable working with dogs who have medical needs or unique personalities, whether they’re high-energy, shy, reactive, or a little anxious in new settings. I am a dog person to my core and have loved them all! I work from home Monday - Friday, so my situation is ideal for boarding and daycare as well as shorter overnights. I enjoy being outdoors as much as I enjoy a night in, so I can be flexible depending on each dog's needs. I live in a walkable neighborhood where I only need to be away from home for short periods of time to go grocery shopping or to hit the gym. I have always had a dog (though I am currently dog-free, unfortunately), so I am naturally attuned to their schedules and needs. I live in a very dog-friendly complex in a very residential neighborhood. I have lots of experience with controlled walks, crate training, and general dog safety, including emergency care and safe/proper introductions with other dog-friendly dogs. I live alone in a very calm, peaceful environment, and am conscientious of respecting a dog's space and know the importance of maintaining a semi-normal schedule while they're in a new/unfamiliar environment.

About: As a healthcare professional, I bring a calm, detail-oriented, and safety-first approach to pet care. Beyond caring for my own yellow Lab, Simba, I have spent over seven years professionally and personally watching dogs for family members and friends. I understand how important it is to find someone reliable and trustworthy for your pets. Whether your dog needs medication administration, senior care, energetic play, or just a dependable companion while you are away, I provide attentive, compassionate care tailored to their exact needs. I currently work part-time from home, which means I have plenty of flexibility to give your pups constant attention, playtime, and potty breaks throughout the day. I live in a pet-friendly apartment community equipped with an on-site dog park, providing a fantastic environment for daily walks and safe outdoor play to help your dog burn off energy. My home is a clean, secure, and welcoming space, and I am happy to accommodate any specific crating routines or safety preferences your dog requires.
“It’s never easy leaving your fur baby with someone unfamiliar but after meeting Dave and Astro, I could immediately tell he was as much of a dog lover as me. Each time I picked up my pup, he was happy as a clam and could tell the level of love and care he received was commensurate to what I’d give him. If you are even remotely hesitant to leave the care of your pet with someone else, look no further than Dave. Your pup will be in excellent hands!”

About: I’ve cared for dogs of all kinds since I got my own dog 6 years ago! Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to feed, walk, play with, and care for their pets. I’m patient, attentive, and treat every pet like my own. I’m comfortable with dogs of different sizes, ages, and personalities, and I love giving pets plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship while their owners are away. I’m currently a grad student and only go to school (half-days) 3 times a week. Most likely I’ll be at home so I’m available for any of your pet’s needs :) I don’t smoke in my home, I keep my home very minimal so there’s no concerns of a pet getting interested in any mess.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Normal Heights
Tatiana did an amazing job with my dog! My dog has separation anxiety but Tatiana went above and beyond in making sure my dog was comfortable and happy during her stay. She updated me throughout the day and sent lots of pictures. You can really tell how much she loves animals and I would definitely book her again.

Raquel and her partner are amazing and incredibly professional! We needed someone to watch our recently adopted rescue for a few hours each day while we were in town doing touristy things and attending concerts. Their communication was excellent, and their flexibility with our schedule—especially some of our later pickups—was very much appreciated. This was my first time using Rover, so I was a little nervous about leaving our sweet girl with someone we didn’t know. But after the meet and greet, I had zero worries and knew Patsy would be in great hands. I was able to thoroughly enjoy our outings without stressing about how she was doing. Patsy was excited to be dropped off and always came home a happy girl! She got plenty of potty breaks, and Raquel adapted to all of Patsy’s little quirks with ease. It was clear that Patsy felt comfortable and well cared for. We’re so glad we found Raquel and will absolutely book with her again whenever we’re in the area! I highly recommend her and her partner to anyone looking for caring, trustworthy, and professional sitters.

We absolutely loved Vanessa! ❤️ This was my first time using Rover, and I’m so glad I did because it led us to her. She was so sweet, kind, and loving with Mana from the moment we met her. She kept me updated the entire time and sent me so many adorable pictures and videos. As a first-time Rover user, those updates meant so much and gave me peace of mind knowing he was happy and being well taken care of. Vanessa was amazing, and you can tell she genuinely loves animals. She took such great care of our little guy, and we couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. We will definitely be booking with her again! 🐾❤️

While visiting the South Park area of San Diego we knew we would need “doggie day care” for our “separation anxiety” Doodle! I immediately went to ROVER and felt a connection to Lisa’s profile and never had a second thought. Not only was she in the neighborhood just blocks away, she was flexible, accommodating, communicative and an obvious lover of dogs. Plenty of walks, loads of cell phone updates and pics, and clear communication on every level. Lisa was able to rotate care from our house, to her house, and the Dog Park in between. She even made sure our pup made “friends” in the neighborhood! I encourage you to trust your pup to Lisa and feel assured that your fur-baby is in excellent hands! WOOF!

So grateful for Maryjane and her pack! We were driving through San Diego back home to Orange County and needed someone to help watch Benedict last minute. Benny not only had a great time with them, but I was able to relax as well knowing he was in great hands because Maryjane sent photo and video updates throughout his stay. Picking him up after our concert was also a great experience. She sent us off with homemade treats. 🤍🐾🦴

Courtney is professional, kind and very easy to work with. She communicated well and took great care of my pup. Millie was so excited to see her and her dog the second day she came that she sprinted out of my car to her yard. I'd definitely recommend her and will be booking with her again in the future.

I reached out on short notice needing a sitter for my Belgian Malinois mix and honestly wasn’t sure who’d be up for it, mals are a lot. High energy, smart, need real exercise and mental stimulation or they get destructive/anxious. Derya didn’t just tolerate that, they clearly got it. My dog came home tired in the best way and completely unstressed, which tells me they were actually engaged and working with her energy instead of just containing it. She also sent photos and videos constantly throughout the visit, I always knew exactly what she was up to and could tell she was genuinely having a good time, not just being watched. That kind of communication is huge, especially when you’re booking last minute and a little anxious about leaving a dog like this with someone new. On top of that, they pulled it together on very short notice without missing a beat communicative, reliable, and clearly experienced with working breed temperaments, not just easy lapdogs. If you’ve got a dog that’s “too much” for the average sitter, this is who you want. Already planning to book again

Lucia is so great! She watched my senior dog while I was at work and sent me plenty of updates including outdoor walks and napping photos. She immediately bonded with my boy and was very kind to him. I felt safe leaving him with Lucia so he had a buddy during my time away. Will book again!
