About: I have grown up with animals of all kinds and have much experience helping friends and family with their fur babies. I currently live with a fur baby and would do anything for her. I would love to continue helping others in anyway I can. I am very trustworthy and will do anything to help leaving your fur baby easier for you. I am currently working a part time job so I have plenty of time to help and dedicate my time in anyway I can to play with the fur babies and make you and your pet comfortable. I am very trustworthy and will respect any and everything for the home of the pets. I am very respectful and believe I can make you and your pets very comfortable. I will send update pictures and videos as we play and wait for owners to come home.
“Hector was the best taking care of my cat! He was extremely responsible and careful and followed all my instructions to take care of Kitty. I had to travel to my home country for a couple of weeks, and having Hector around made me feel comfortable. He was super responsive to the texts and always made sure he posted an update for me for every visit. He kept my place clean, brought in any packages that were outside of my apartment and took care of everything I asked him to do. I could also see how well he treated Kitty, and how he played with her and pet her. My cat really adores him. He was also super polite with me and it was a pleasure dealing with him. I will definitely call Hector next time a need a sitter, I know my cat will be on the best hands! Thanks a lot, Hector, you are the best! :-)”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for fourteen years. I’ve trained puppies for five years. Neighbors have relied on me to feed, play, and care overnight from one night to two weeks. I have full availability and will work full time. Services I provide are house sitting in your home and dog walking in your neighborhood. I have unlimited availability to care for your pet. I can do any day for any amount of hours. I can come over any time. I would secure the home and follow all pet owner instructions. I prefer pet care notes to be left to follow them. I would feed if needed and keep your pet company.
About: Since 2009, I have had dogs... I absolutely love them (and really all animals)! I cared for my two dogs until their passing at approximately 9 years of age since they were puppies. While in graduate school, I volunteered at the Oakland Animal Shelter for a few months taking care of pigeons, such as feeding them and cleaning their cages. So, if you have some unusual animals- I am open to taking care of them too! I also had a 2 week experience cat sitting for my cousin's senior cat by feeding/giving her water and general watching her. So, I have good experience with taking care of cats too although I have never had a cat personally. At the moment, I have my senior dog, Mr. Beau, an 11 year American Staff Terrier I adopted in 2023 at the shelter. While I was at the Oakland Animal Shelter, staff made it known that senior animals are the most often overlooked animals for adoption and that made me feel sad :( So once I was able to, I made it a mission to adopt a senior pup, and I am so happy and fulfilled with my decision. As with any senior (including humans), they come with special needs, such as different medications, loss of hearing, limited walking, increase in illnesses, etc. My dog has had many complications, but with my great patience with senior pups, I feel confident in taking care of their specific needs! I know what it is like to trust strangers with taking care of your pet- its scary! Mr. Beau has specific senior needs and is picking, so I hope my experience can make you feel more comfortable with choosing me to take care of your pet when you're away! Experience: senior dogs, puppies, cats, birds, or other types of pets. I am open-minded! I was laid off from my job at the end of June, so I while I am applying to full time work, I have time to take care of pets in the meantime to fill my weekly schedule! While I cannot provide pet sitting services at my own home because my dog is not friendly with other dogs (sad face), I am skilled in meeting with my where my clients are at. I love to ask questions about the pet's history, current physical state, quirks, boundaries, etc. so I don't cause unnecessary stress or issues. Depending on the pet's attitudes and boundaries, I am open to playing, walking, or just simply checking in on them. I want to try to make their environment as healthy and safe as possible, so for instance, if its too hot in the house, I'd like to verify with the owner is opening a window or using the air conditioner is okay.
About: I've taken care of my own pets for as long as they've been alive, along with being an alumni of the Zoo Magnet program from North Hollywood High giving me real time experience with working with numerous different species of animals. I'm currently unemployed with a large amount of free time. I'm available virtually any day past 2pm with my own car and drivers license, able to come to your house as needed. I am able to house sit and take care of menial tasks around the house while ensuring your pets are having a good time with walks, playtime, and scheduled feeding.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and animals of all kinds ever sense I was younger I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, reptiles, bunnies and even ducks I’ve rescued plenty as well so I have plenty of experience in administrating medication, or even caring for aggressive and difficult animals I have slight experience in training as well. I currently work part time but animal care is my passion so I put my full energy into caring for your furry friends 7 days a week I have a pup of my own if you’d like someone to keep your pup company and if not that’s alright too we can always play one on one I have no problem letting your pup free roam or crating
“It was such a pleasure trusting our cat to such a caring person! She was punctual and attentive, and constantly sent photo and video updates during her visits. Our cat was happy and calm, and we could go about our business with total peace of mind. Highly recommended from the bottom of my heart!”
About: I love animals and have been pet-sitting for friends and family for as long as I can remember. I am excited to help you out and become friends with your dog(s). If you are walking or skating distance (under 5 miles), I can be available regularly AM, afternoon, & PM. Otherwise we will have to schedule 2 days in advance. Thank you! I only offer walks, and pet sitting at your home. This means I will come to your home and have a walking route planned out for your dog, refill fresh water, & food (if needed). If it's cat or cats, I will refill water and food as needed as well. I love animals and Im sure you'll see thay upon meeting the first time. I look forward to helping any way I can.
About: I provide calm, home-style boarding with maximum of 2 dogs at a time, so each dog gets plenty of attention and space. My home has a large, fully gated yard and an open layout, so dogs can move freely and feel comfortable-no overcrowding or stress. I am experianced with dogs up to 80 lbs and focus on creating a safe, relaxed environment, especially for dogs who don't do well in busy boarding settings. I keep routines consistent and send regular updates, photos, and videos so you always know how your dog is doing. this is a great fit for dogs who enjoy a calm, clean and secure home while you're away. I always had dogs in my family and I was taking care of them. Also, I took care of our family’s and friend’s dogs. I like to interact, to play with them, that they won’t feel alone. Fortunately, I am home always to give potty breaks, provide treats, and get in some cuddle and playtime. I always had dogs.. Three years ago, I had three dogs. Two of them passed away. Third one, Chihuahua, who passed away last year. I missed my dogs. It’s very soon and difficult for me to get another dog, but I will be happy to have guest pets in our house. I live in a house with backyard. I have a fully fenced backyard if your pup loves to be outside. I am home all day and night, and dogs are my life. I take them out for walks around a beautiful quiet neighborhood. Lots of birds, trees, squirrels, and all the fun stuff dogs enjoy.
About: I’ve always been the person friends and family trust to watch their pets because I genuinely love spending time with animals. I know how stressful it can be to leave your pet with someone else, so I do my best to make them feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s a puppy with lots of energy, a senior pet who needs a slower pace and extra care, or a pet that’s a little shy at first, I’m patient and happy to adjust to their needs. I pay attention to the little things, follow routines closely, and love sending updates and photos so you know your pet is doing well. My goal is for your pet to feel like they’re hanging out with a friend, not just being watched I’m currently on summer break from my job as an elementary after-school teacher, so I have a more flexible schedule and extra time to dedicate to pet care. During the summer, I work a part-time job, which allows me to provide care before and after my shifts. I’m able to plan my schedule around pets’ needs and make sure they get the attention, care, and companionship they deserve. I’m also available on weekends for extra visits, overnight care, or just some extra love and attention if needed. 🐾❤️ When caring for pets in your home, I try to keep their routine as normal as possible so they feel comfortable while you’re away. I’ll make sure they’re fed on schedule, have fresh water, clean litter boxes, and get plenty of love and attention. I know every cat is different—some want constant cuddles and playtime, while others prefer their space—so I always let them set the pace. I’ll also send updates and photos so you can relax knowing your cat is happy and well cared for
About: As the longtime caretaker of two senior pets — a 16.5-year-old dachshund and a 13-year-old cat — I’m very experienced with administering medications and providing attentive, patient care to animals with different medical and emotional needs. I’ve cared for dogs, cats, and horses since childhood and have also volunteered with dog and cat shelters, as well as a wildlife rescue where I help care for a wide variety of animals. Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I treat every pet with the same level of care, caution, and affection that I give my own. I’m extremely detail-oriented and proactive — the type of person who researches breeds extensively and learns everything I can to make sure I’m providing the best possible care. If you’re looking for someone responsible, observant, compassionate, and genuinely devoted to animals, I would love to care for your pet. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide reliable, attentive care when you need it most. I’m available throughout the week and genuinely enjoy spending quality time with animals, whether that means going for walks, playing in the yard, sticking to their normal routine, or simply keeping them company at home. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while giving you peace of mind while you’re away. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. Whether that means walks, playtime, cuddles, feeding, medications, or just keeping them company, I’ll make sure your pet gets attentive and reliable care. I grew up with large dogs and have owned small dogs as an adult, so I understand that different breeds, sizes, and personalities all have unique needs. Safety is something I take very seriously, and I’m naturally very observant and cautious when caring for animals. Before sitting, I like to learn about your pet’s personality, routines, medical needs, behavioral quirks, comfort level with other people or animals, and of course their favorite treats and activities. I have a PhD in Biology and a very detail-oriented, scientifically minded approach, which means I tend to notice and think about things that others may overlook. My goal is always to make both pets and owners feel completely comfortable and confident in my care.
About: I have a lifelong love for animals and many years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats of different sizes, breeds, and temperaments. Growing up in a family with veterinary professionals in it, I absorbed a wealth of practical knowledge. I have a strong, understanding of pet health, safety, and hazard prevention. While I’m not a vet myself, I am fully comfortable administering medications, and managing specific care routines. I pride myself on being attentive, calm, playful, and reliable. Whether your pet is a high-energy pup with zoomies or a senior cat needing a gentle touch, they will be in safe, knowledgeable hands. I am currently working from home with an incredibly open and flexible schedule, your pet will have my undivided attention. My weeks are completely free, making me a perfect fit for pets who thrive on constant companionship, need frequent potty breaks, or require strict, time-sensitive medication schedules. Because I share a vehicle with my partner, my schedule is highly optimized for House Sitting. If you are looking for a sitter who doesn't just 'check in,' but actually hangs out, plays, and keeps your pet company all day long, I’m your guy!" For me, keeping pets safe and happy comes down to two things: sticking to their routines and treating them like my own. I have a lot of experience managing different personalities, medical needs, and schedules, so I know how important consistency is for a pet's peace of mind (and yours!). I have three strictly indoor cats of my own, so I’m used to managing a multi-pet household. I keep up with multiple litter boxes daily, make sure they always have fresh water and dry food, feed them wet food twice a day, and at minimum play with them an hour a day. I regularly look after an older dog who gets two hours of walks a day to keep him active. I make sure he’s fed at 8:00 PM on the dot, and because he loves his crate, I safely tuck him in there whenever I have to step out for a bit so he feels secure. I’m completely comfortable with specialized medical care. One of my regular clients has three cats, and one requires time-sensitive medications via an inhaler and oral syringe. I also have experience with modern pet tech, like automatic litter boxes, and I follow the owner's schedule for cleaning them out and refreshing the automatic water fountain.
“Cielo was great. Took photos each time she visited the cats, and we could really enjoy our time away knowing the fur-babies were getting the attention and care they needed.”
“Kimberly was very sweet and communicative with Juice! Took care of my cat for my 4 days out of town over Christmas at the last minute. Very grateful for the peace of mind.”
About: What sets me apart is the combination of genuine love for animals and a thoughtful, detailed approach to their care. I have over 10 years of hands on experience with pets and understand that every animal has their own personality, routine, and needs. I’m playful and affectionate with pets, but I take the responsibility seriously. My priorities are their safety, keeping their routines consistent, and communicating with you so you know they are happy and well cared for. As a pet mom myself, I love my babies and will show the same kindness to yours. My experience includes caring for puppies and kittens through different stages of life. I have helped raise and train two puppies and would be happy to reinforce any training you are currently working on. I have also cared for a newborn kitten who needed frequent feeding and help with bathroom breaks, and I currently have three cats of my own. Over the years, I have helped family and friends with dog sitting and walking, including walking multiple dogs at once, and I have volunteered with cats available for adoption at Petco. I take the time to learn each pet’s personality, routine, and individual needs so I can keep them comfortable and happy while you are away. My schedule is very flexible, allowing me to work around your pet’s routine and needs. Whether it’s overnight stays, drop ins, or walks, I can give each pet the time and attention they deserve. Your pet’s safety and comfort always come first. I’ll follow their normal routine and spend quality time with them. I’ll treat your home with the same care and respect I would my own, and keep you updated so you know how things are going.
“I believe this is the third or fourth time that Desiree has performed drop-in visits for our cat, Mr. Darcy. On each occasion, she has been very reliable and diligent in following the care instructions left for her. She has also been very willing to communicate as needed to ensure that our expectations will be met and that we will come home to a pet that was well cared for. We continue to highly recommend Desiree's services.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - North Hills
Beyond grateful with Itzel! She was kind, loving, and patient with my fur babies. I was impressed how my Salem & whiskey felt really comfortable with her. Normally they hide away, but they seemed to really like her as they were roaming when she came over to check on the dogs. Itzel inspired trust in them. That for me speaks volume. She really treated my kids like her own. Thank you ❤️
We have rebooked Jill to pet sit for us so many times and I can honestly say every single time has been amazing which is why we will continue to re book her because the care and love she shows our babies tells us she loves what she does. Honestly there are not enough great words to put on here but Jill is fantastic !
We couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter than Cassidy! She was incredibly nurturing, responsible, and attentive, and it was clear from the start that she genuinely cared about our fur baby. She treated our little one like her own, giving them lots of love, attention, and care while we were away. We came home to a happy, relaxed cat, which gave us such peace of mind. We highly recommend her and would absolutely trust her with our Freddy again! Hire her now and you will not be disapointed.
Daniela has been coming by on weekdays to let our dogs out while we're at work, and we could not be happier. She gives them real playtime instead of just a quick potty break, always tops off their water, and leaves the house exactly as she found it. Her communication is excellent. We always know when she's arrived and how the visit went, which takes a lot of worry off our minds during the workday. Our dogs clearly adore her. If you need someone reliable and genuinely good with animals, we recommend her without hesitation.
Katherine was great at being on time and doing everything she was supposed to for my cat Arya - wet food, topping off fountain and refilling spare water bowl, cleaning litter box and taking a photo of Arya. She was communicative and let me know if there was anything wrong and brought in my Amazon package! She left great notes after each visit. Will book again in the future!
Jackeline has watched my cats a few times and she always does a fantastic job. I feel like she really cares about my boys and gave them lots of love and spoiled them appropriately while I was gone (as requested). Very communicative and always leaves everything as nice or nicer than I did. The best sitter I’ve had on Rover so far!
Haley once again took amazing care of our girls! My husband and I feel incredibly fortunate that we found such a kind and caring sitter in Haley. The girls love her and even our older cat (who can be pretty aloof/distant with others outside of our family) has enjoyed playing with her. Do not hesitate in hiring Haley--she's a gem!
I highly recommend my dog sitter! He is always on time, very responsible, and does a great job taking care of my dog. I really appreciate his daily updates and reports—they give me peace of mind while I’m away. I will definitely book him again the next time I go on vacation. Thank you for taking such good care of my fur baby! 🐾❤️
I am so grateful for Mikayla’s consistently thoughtful care of my beloved shy/grumpy six year old cat. The hardest part of travel is being away from my cat and it is a relief knowing he’ll have a kind, watchful eye on him, and access to his favorite treats while I’m away :)
Myla was fantastic. She came by to feed and water our cat and dog. Our cat rarely comes out for anyone but us. But the cat LOVED Myla. She sent us a bunch of both our fur babies looking happy every time she visited. Great sitter! We will definitely call on her again.
Annabella was amazing caring for our little senior dog in our home while we were away. Our dog needs medication and prescription food from the freezer so not the most easy client but Annabella managed it all perfectly. She even took our cans to the curb and kept or kitchen orchid perfectly watered!
This was my first time using Rover, and Genesis was the perfect dog sitter for our dog, Sheldon. My dog is pretty picky, but Genesis was able to make friends with him very quickly. She was very kind and playful with him, and I felt totally comfortable trusting him into her care. She went above and beyond making sure he was taken care of. I loved how well she kept me updated, with pictures and updates on how Sheldon was doing. Each time she sent me pictures of him playing, it reassured me that I made the right decision, having Genesis looking after him. She looked after our house while we were gone and left it exactly how I left it. I feel like I got very lucky finding her. I will definitely rebook Genesis to look after our dog.

If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
