“Had a great experience with Kristin! Our two pups stayed for a week - our boy suffers from seizures which Kristin had experience with. Kristin was wonderful at keeping us updated on his condition during their stay. We received daily reports and pictures. I appreciate how well Kristin took care of our pups!”
About: I started off rescuing my cats to helping neighborhood strays find a loving home. I know how important our furry friends are which is why I will take care of your pet as if they were my own. I love interacting with them. Spending time with your little ones will make my day. Don’t worry your pets will be in good hands. I am reliable, honest and responsive. I will reply back within 24 hours. Also I have a flexible schedule, if you need me to take care of your pet outside of my schedule something can be arranged. Thank you for taking the time to check out my profile. I’m currently working full time but I’ll make sure to set time aside to care for another pawsome friend when in need! They’re all so adorable! I’m constantly making sure my pets are hydrated, well fed and have unlimited amount of love at all times. Not to mention treats and toys are one of the best ways to their hearts
“Lucy enjoyed her stay with Zara's and she probably can't wait to go there in the future. Zara provided a warm and safe home for Lucy and a provided her with great care. I highly recommend Zara as a sitter.”
“Outstanding! Alan and Luis provided extraordinary care for our Black Lab mix Annie while we were on vacation for a week. They are truly the best! Compassionate, friendly, caring, trustworthy are just a few words to describe Alan and Luis. The house is beautiful with a gated fence and a "kiddy pool". Annie truly enjoyed her stay and playing with the other guests as evidenced by her disposition when I picked her up and the the daily photos. I will always check first with Alan and Luis in the future when I need a sitter for Annie.”
“Kristina was an amazing sitter for Teddy! I’m giving her 5 stars for the great care she provided. She took Teddy on regular walks and kept me updated every day with detailed recaps, photos, and videos, which I really appreciated. She was very communicative and patient, especially when Teddy wasn’t eating much in a new environment. She made sure he was comfortable and took the time to help him adjust. She also administered his anxiety medication without any issues, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. I would absolutely book with Kristina again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter!”
About: *** January 2026 update -- moving out to California for the winter from Connecticut! Looking forward to meeting new pets and pet parents ! ❤️ Hi!! My name is Steph! I am a registered nurse but I love to pet/house sit and walk dogs on the side ! I also just got pet CPR and first aid certified (see in my pictures)!! I would love to help you out and care for your dog(s), cat(s), any animal! As a registered nurse, caring, kindness, reliability, and good communication are all in my nature. I am conveniently located in Palm Desert and can service areas in a 20 minute radius! I can travel outside this radius for a travel fee. I offer dog walking, drop in visits, overnight house sitting, and I can accommodate doggy day care in my home. I am happy to provide house sitting because it allows your pets be comfortable at home versus in an unfamiliar and scary kennel. It also gives you peace of mind knowing they are happy and safe at home and that your home is being responsibly cared for. My style of housesitting is making your home my new home base for the length of the booking. I work three overnight (11pm-7am) shifts a week. So other than work, errands, check ins on my house and family, I will be at your house with your pets :) I can also dog sit/doggy day care (smaller-medium dogs) at my house. I only take up to two dogs from the same family at a time, so they will get my full attention and you won't have to worry about how they may get along with other dogs! Please feel free to contact me with questions and let me know what your specific needs are for your pets/house sitting. I always do meet and greets, free of charge, with new clients to meet my new animal friend(s) and discuss a customized care plan in person :) Thank you for looking at my profile! Hope to hear from you soon ! I always try my best to accommodate last minute requests from new clients. And my regular clients know my flexiblity and can reach out to me anytime! I follow the feeding schedule/any instructions you provide. Fresh water given frequently. I make sure using the bathroom is a priority, so for dogs, being let outside as much as possible, for cats, clean litter box(es). All medications are given safely. I make sure I spend quality time with your pet. Whatever their needs are.... Playing, cuddling/petting, going for walks, treats, etc, I make it happen ! I make certain your pets are safely inside and your house is secure before I leave.
“First time for ur little guy with Rachel. She kept us updated everyday with great pictures and he got his daily walks. He looked happy and when he came home, was perfect!! certainly agree with all other reviews now that we have used Rachel. DEFINITELY will be using again!!”
“We are so pleased with Isabel and her care and concern with our pup. She had great communication with us and sent daily pictures of all the fun our pup had while away. We will definitely be using Isabel for our next vacation!”
“We always feel confident leaving our pup with Tatiana. She is attentive, and provides us with the best pictures and updates. During Ricky’s most recent stay with Tatiana, she methodically introduced him to her puppy. Ricky is a very smart and loving dog, but being a rescued pup, he has trauma and sometimes some unpredictable behaviors. She handles this with confidence and care. He had a great time!”
“Our 3 year old border collie was well cared for by Cruz Maria and her husband. He got plenty of playtime in the fenced back yard. Cruz Maria sent us plenty of pictures and updates throughout the stay. He came back to us very happy and healthy. We will place Scout with them again”
“We’re SO happy we found Ashley! We needed someone last minute to watch our Yorkie, Maverick, while we were on vacation, and man, we really lucked out. From the start, she made us feel so comfortable leaving him with her and sent us tons of pictures and updates while we were away. Each one melting our hearts more than the last. She took such amazing care of Maverick and really made him part of the family. Her son and Maverick became the best little buddies, which was honestly so sweet to see. It made us so happy knowing he was having fun, getting lots of love, and feeling right at home while we were gone. We came home to a VERY happy pup, and we couldn’t be more thankful. We will absolutely have Ashley watch Maverick next time and would recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will take great care of their fur babies! ❤️🐾”
About: I have been grooming dogs for over 18 years, and boarding clients' pups in my home for 16 years. My 13 yr old homeschooled son and I adore all dogs. We have 2 wonderful medium sized girls (Myla 8, Josie 1.5) who love all dogs and people! My career in grooming means I truly 'speak dog' and understand their quirks and needs. I have extensive experience with all breeds, sizes, and personalities. I'm comfortable administering oral and injectible medications, as well as supplements. Our dogs eat a raw diet, so food & water bowls get sterilized after each meal. Since we homeschool, we spend a lot of time at home or close by with friends. My son often has friends over who love to play with dogs. This means we have a great balance of calm & quiet time, as well as active & fun time. Our lovely property has Invisible Fence for about a acre, so any dogs trained on it get to enjoy lots of untethered play time. Every dog who stays gets a temporary ID tag with my address and phone number in case of accidental 'escape' We love couch cuddles, and both of our girls sleep in bed with my son. We also have dog beds everywhere, and crates & gates available when needed.
“Loved Catherine! She took great care of Bear and it gave me peace of mind to know her house was safe, spotless, and dog friendly. I also liked that she only takes one client at a time to ensure full attention to my dog. 🫶🏽”
“Nicole is fantastic! We were nervous about boarding my dog at someone else’s house for the first time and she was reassuring, patient, and attentive to all of Jack’s needs. Great with medication administration and provided daily photos and updates on how Jack was doing. Certainly gave us peace of mind on our trip. We will definitely be using Nicole for our next trip and would recommend her to anyone!”

This was my first time using Rover, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience! She took wonderful care of my dog, kept me updated with messages, and gave me complete peace of mind. She was also incredibly accommodating when I realized I had forgotten to include an extra day on my original booking, and she made the process so easy. On top of that, she patiently helped me navigate the Rover app as a first-time user, which I really appreciated. Kind, reliable, and communicative—I would absolutely book with her again!

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 .
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.
