1. April H.
“We where really impressed with April care for our fur baby Indie. We where not sure if he would like April. Once he meet her our Indie fell in love with her. She was able to get him to calmed down which is very surprising because Indie is a husky very active. April never complained about taking a few fur balls with her. April is definitely part of the family now.🙂”

5. Mannee M.

“Shift was an amazing sitter!! He sent updates every day with pictures, handled our house well and even cleaned it before he left! My kitties were so happy and satisfied, in such good health and I feel so grateful that he did such a good job. The LA fires started while I was gone and he took such great care of them and stayed in communication when it looked like he made need to evacuate with my cats. He made a stressful time so much smoother and easier. ❤️”


6. Avery W.
“Avery has taken care of our two dogs multiple times and has done an outstanding job. She truly treats them like her own, giving them her love, attention and lots of play time. Avery is extremely responsible, thoughtful, trustworthy and remembers to ask all the right questions if I have forgotten any details. I trust her in my home and with my pups. My favorite are the pictures she sends of them, I can see how happy and comfortable they are with her!”




7. Susan J.


“Nani has a new best friend! Susan is amazing and beyond respectful of our home when she stays over. I get full detailed texts and videos and love seeing how happy nani is when we’re gone! If I could give more stars I would. Excellent dog sitter.”


8. Dee Dee S.

“Dee Dee performed all the tasks we asked of her, which included administering medication, feeding, walking, watering, and cleaning up after our 7 year old malinois with a serious medical condition. She stayed overnight for a week and took in the mail, brought out the trash cans, and looked after our house. She helped to make our vacation possible, as our dog cannot be boarded because of her medical condition.”


9. Katherine P.
“Kat is amazing! I have a 74 lb pittie that I adopted 5 yrs ago who is very skittish with new people. He warmed up to Kat and was in her lap within 10 min of meeting her. She’s helped me train him, she’s so kind and patient, and she’s someone I fully trust with my fur son. My big guy had a leg surgery recently and she’s been by our side helping with doctor's appointments and his overall recovery. Kat would be the perfect person to take care of any pet and you’ll know they are being loved, getting all the scritches, and being well taken care of. She’s very respectful and someone who will follow whatever needs the you have for your fur babies. She really is amazing!”


10. Nazeil Rose L.

“Roco is my new go to sitter. Chancellor is always so well cared for and I get the perfect amount of check ins and photos. If you want someone who you can trust in your home and trust with the fluffy love of your life, hire Roco! They're such a positive presence in my home & in my doggos life!”


11. Sofia L.
About: Hi there! My name is Sofia and I have cared for animals my entire life. I am experienced in petsitting, dog walking, and volunteer work at an animal shelter. I’ve looked after several animals; from cats and dogs to rabbits, reptiles, and fish. I am very passionate about animals, so volunteering really helped me make a small change one pet at a time. I am fear free certified, meaning I am trained in reading animal body language and cues to promote the safety of your pets, myself, and others. In my time at the shelter, I dedicated time towards getting to know each individual animal, their habits, their quirks, their medical needs, and what they respond to. I plan on meeting with each pet owner and going over each individual animals needs to ensure I can provide the best possible care for each pet prior to booking. Since I work from home, I have the flexibility and time to provide the personalized care your pet deserves. I am a dedicated petsitter committed to creating a stress free environment with customized care for your furry friends. I work a very flexible work schedule and can be available at lunch time and 4-10pm on weekdays. I am available on most weekends to attend to your pets needs. I will be flexible and will do my best to accommodate different schedules! In my home, my pets enjoy a cozy, pet friendly environment with regular playtime, affection, and personalized care. They are also absolutely spoiled with their favorite treats and toys. In clients’ homes I plan to replicate routines, provide companionship, and prioritize the well-being of pets with customized and attentive care.


12. Denise R.
About: I have several years experience working in the animal care industry. I have recently retired and would love to help out with your pets in your home. Since I am retired I am available to pet sit or do drop in visits anytime. Please reach out if you have any questions about my experience. With my many years of working in the animal care industry I have taken several classes in animal handling to keep myself safe as well as your pets.


13. Zoe M.


“I was a first time Rover user! I was very nervous to allow a stranger into my house to watch my furry babies for such a long period of time while I was completely across the country. Zoe was so wonderful at our first meet and greet and even agreed to come over a second time to make sure she had everything covered before we left town. She was communicative and sweet with both of my elderly dogs (I'd categorize them both as high maintenance for different reasons). I would definitely recommend her for dog/house sitting. She was terrific - five stars. :)”


14. Lielle A.
“I cannot thank Lielle enough for the incredible care she gave my German Shepherd, Rubi. From the moment we met, it was clear how much love and dedication she has for animals. Rubi isn’t always the easiest dog — she’s high-energy and very attached to me — but Lielle treated her like family. I could see how happy and relaxed Rubi was in every photo and update I received. What truly moved me was Lielle’s kindness when my return flight to Los Angeles was unexpectedly canceled. Without hesitation, she offered to keep Rubi for two extra days — completely free of charge. That kind of generosity and heart is rare, and I’ll never forget it. If you’re looking for someone who will love and care for your dog as if they were her own, Lielle is the one. She’s truly a gem, and Rubi and I are beyond grateful.”


15. Karlee W.

“Karlee is my regular house and pet sitter who looks after my two dogs and one cat. She does a great job with all of them, especially my elderly Maltese on heart meds. It's a great relief to know she's looking after them when I'm gone and I'm highly appreciative!”


16. Adeline R.

“Adeline was amazing!! She took care of my mini poodle while I was in town for a couple days and they had an absolute blast. Would highly recommend her!”


17. Lily G.

“Would recommend again. Lily was great!”


18. shahrzad m.

“Shahrzad looked after my medically fragile, elderly dog for 10 days. She did a great job following a complex medical protocol and she sent a photo every day. Poe was happy and calm when I came home. Thank you, Shahrzad!”


19. Kirin B.
About: My whole life I’ve had a deep passion for animal welfare, and now, as a zoology student, I’m learning new things about them every day. I’ve now cared for all kinds of species and am well-versed in their needs, including dogs, cats, rodents, equines, and reptiles. I was certified in first aid recently and know CPR procedures for dogs, cats, and birds! So why should you hire me? • I have experience with nearly all domestic animals and am studying animal science. • I’m responsive and friendly! I will always be happy to work with you on anything. • I have a huge range of flexibility and availability. Need me on Christmas or Thanksgiving? No problem. • I’ll take lots of pictures! I’m a part-time student who’s currently got a ton of time on my hands to dedicate toward any and every fuzzy friend. Luckily my schedule is entirely flexible save for the odd vacation or event, so I can adjust to whatever times are desired. Alongside basic responsibilities such as feeding, ‘watering,’ and walking, I always take the time to give animals proper socialization and enrichment; I’m happy to play, run, or simply snuggle with them and provide the love they need. I also ensure the space is left in good condition by addressing pet hair or other concerns. I can bathe, meet first aid needs, and give as much attention to our friend as is necessary — and more!

“Janelle is AMAZING with our shy little girl. She is super reliable and updates us with photos each visit. Our little girl is so excited to see Janelle at the door. I know we are in good hands when we have to be away.”
