“Meng was an absolutely amazing in-home dog sitter. We will definitely be booking her again. She followed our instructions carefully, took really good care of our dogs, took really good care of our home, and was overall incredibly responsible and great with our dogs.”
“Kimberly watched our Boston terrier while we were away on a trip! We really appreciated her frequent photo updates and checking in with us on how things were going! She paid special care and attention to our sweet fur baby- she tends to be anxious but warmed up right away with Kimberly! We will definitely have her back in the future!”
“Nick and Heidi were so great with my large anxious dog! I could tell he was in good spirits and super relaxed with them for our 4 night house sitting. I got loads of updates and came back to a clean home and happy doggo! Would definitely recommend both of them take good care of your furry friend!”
“Amber was our savior. We had a family emergency and she came to house sit our dog chili and was cool when we needed to extend our trip halfway thru. She took great care of our home and our pup. Will book again!”
“Ashley was a great and reliable dog sitter. She communicated with us quickly and asked our advice when our older dog was showing signs of anxiety , she also was able to give him anxiety meds which wasn’t something we reviewed in person because we weren’t anticipating it. She also calmly communicated that our buildings fire alarm was going off and was very forgiving about the interrupted sleep because of it. We’re grateful she was able to watch our dogs!”
“Tiaira is amazing and we could not have asked for a better sitter for our two pups. One is special needs and we’ve never left him until now and are so grateful for her care and compassion. I almost don’t want to leave her his review so I can keep her a secret. Definitely recommend her to take care of your beloved pets.”
“Nicholle is professional, reliable, and so wonderful to our dog, Papa! He absolutely loves her and we can leave town knowing he’s in great care with her. She is our go to & knows what Papa needs at all times. Highly recommend to any pet parents that have an anxious pup!”
About: I have been taking care of pets since my brother got his first pet in 2017. When ever he was out of town I was the first person he called to take care of his little guy because he knew how much I loved animals. Since then I have taken care of a number of pets and I have one of my own now. I love animals and would love to take care of yours. I am a 4th year PhD student so my schedule is pretty flexible. I go on morning and evening walks. Because I'm a researcher my schedule is what I make it therefore most of time I can work around your schedule. I am more than capable of handling excitable pets. With my years of pet care experience and my large physique, I feel comfortable soothing down any pet. I would be more than happy to do what it requires to make sure your pet is safe and comfortable.
“Nicholas was very communicative and shared photos and videos with us regularly. Very easy to work with and we are so appreciative that he was able to help us during the holidays. Highly recommend!!”
“Paul was a fantastic dogsitter the week he took care of my definitely-a-handful dog Athena. Athena take medication three times a day for epilepsy and requires a muzzle on walks and she therefore comes with a long list of instructions and contingency plans in case of seizures. Paul proved very caring, attentive, and detail-oriented for the entire week, plus Athena was clearly in love with him by the time I came home. Additionally he was always quickly responsive via in-app texts, which included needing to coordinate with my vet to respond to some allergic reactions & skin irritation that week. I would 100% rebook Paul for housesitting or any other services.”
“My pup Leo loved Hannah from the moment he saw her. She was very communicative and professional. She has a very easygoing spirit and I was very comfortable leaving my home and dog with Hannah!”
“Chelsea watched my dog and cat for 10 days straight at my apartment as my first rover experience with her. She was so kind during our meet and greet and very communicative throughout the process. During her stay she sent numerous photos a day and was very responsive. When we returned to our apartment everything was clean and tidy, maybe even tidier than how we left it. I will absolutely be requesting Chelsea to care for my animals again and would refer her to friends in the area. I know my animals are in good hands with her which is all a pet parent can ask for 🥰”
“Rachel was an absolute angel. She was so excited to hangout with Nara when we had a meet and greet. She was attentive to any details/needs of our pup and asked all the right questions. She was on time and chatted with us before we left and is a pleasure to talk to. She sent photo updates throughout the time she sat Nara and we ended up extending our time out and she was happy to accommodate our request. I highly recommend as she is a lover of animals and an overall kind human.”
“Liana took amazing care of our two high maintenance pooches-a senior and a teen who both need medications. They loved her and looked for her after she left. She sent regular pupdates with pictures, reassuring us and keeping us feeling connected while we were out of town. Will definitely book again!”
“Devin and Chevelle were wonderful with our two pups for an overnight. They provided thorough updates and great photos, and left our home in great condition. Our dogs were very calm and happy when we arrived home!”
About: I have always cats and dogs most of my life. Worked for a dog training co. for several years. Love all breeds big and small. Patience and safety are most important. Currently I'm working part-time, so I have plenty of time to walk your fur baby. I'm also available to sit with pets during the week and on weekends. At this time I am not able to board any pets. I can sit with pets at their home. I have the utmost respect for another persons property and their rules.
“Marissa is caring, considerate, thorough, and communicative! Our dog has epilepsy and has a very rigorous pill schedule, which Marissa handled with ease. She communicated with us daily and followed up with us before and after our trip to make sure our dog had the best care possible and smooth transitions. Her compassion for our pup was clear and we will definitely be booking with her again! Thanks, Marissa!”
About: Hi! I’m Lu— your pup’s new favorite human 🐾 I’ve always been the go-to dog sitter for my friends whenever they travel or need an extra hand. Caring for dogs has never felt like a chore to me — it’s something I genuinely love. I treat every pup like they’re part of my own family. I’m fully bilingual (English & Spanish), responsible, and very attentive to each dog’s unique personality and needs. Whether your pup is energetic and playful or prefers cozy naps and cuddles, I adjust to make them feel safe and happy. I have a medium-sized, secure backyard where dogs can safely play, explore, and burn off energy. If your pup loves outdoor time, we’ll definitely make the most of it! My goal is simple: give you peace of mind and give your dog a fun, loving, and safe experience while you’re away. Can’t wait to meet your furry family member! 🐶💛 I work full-time during the week, but pups are absolutely part of my routine 🐾💛 🗓 Monday, Tuesday, Thursday & Friday: Available after 5:00 PM for walks, drop-ins, or boarding. 🏡 Wednesdays (Work From Home Day!): I’m home all day, which means extra supervision, more playtime, potty breaks, and lots of attention. It’s the perfect day for pups who prefer someone around most of the time. 🌞 Weekends: Fully available! Whether your dog needs a weekend stay, extra walks, or all-day companionship, I’ve got them covered. Because I work a structured schedule, I’m very organized and intentional with my time — your dog won’t be “fit in,” they’ll be part of a planned, caring routine. Safety, supervision, and lots of love are always my priority. Your pup will never feel alone — just cared for, entertained, and right at home. In My Home: I create a calm, clean, and structured environment so dogs feel safe and comfortable. I follow your pet’s usual routine as closely as possible — feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, medications (if needed), and sleep preferences. I have a secure, medium-sized backyard where dogs can safely play and get fresh air. Playtime is always supervised, and I make sure every dog gets the right balance of activity and rest depending on their energy level and personality. I also provide updates and photos, so you always know your furry family member is happy and well cared for. In Your Home (Drop-ins or Walks): When I’m in a client’s home, I’m respectful, reliable, and attentive. I stick closely to your instructions to keep your pet’s routine consistent and stress-free. I make sure they’re fed properly, have fresh water, get exercise, and of course — attention and affection. I understand that every dog is different. Some need lots of play, some need patience and calm energy. I adapt to what makes your pup feel safe and loved. My goal is simple: when you come back, your dog is happy, relaxed, and you feel completely at ease knowing they were in good hands 🐾✨

Palms pet parents share their Rover experiences
Mark was a great dog sitter/walker. We went on an overseas trip and were away from the dogs longer than we’ve ever been and were worried how they would adjust. Mark put those worries to rest. He was responsive and provided daily communication (along with great pictures) of how the dogs were doing. Our dogs are high energy and Mark provided them plenty of walks and opportunities to play. Also, most importantly the dogs got affection from him and seemed to bond with him. Highly recommend him for any pet services
Charlie was absolutely outstanding, and we could not recommend him more highly. From the moment we met him, it was clear that Charlie is an exceedingly responsible, kind, and caring person. He took wonderful care of our very sweet—but very spoiled—Balinese cat, Lollipop. To our amazement, Lollipop allowed Charlie to brush and play with her, something she almost never allows anyone else to do. That alone says a great deal about the trust he built with her. Charlie was also extremely communicative throughout our five-day trip. He sent frequent updates and photos, which gave us tremendous peace of mind while we were away. Equally impressive was the care he showed for our home. Our house is almost entirely white and requires careful attention, and it was absolutely immaculate when we returned. Throughout the entire process Charlie was completely professional, thoughtful, and dependable. He is clearly a young man who is going to accomplish great things in life. Any pet owner would be hard pressed to find a better person to care for their pet—or their home. We feel incredibly fortunate to have found him and would welcome him back anytime.
Aastha was an amazing pet sitter. She took great care of senior dog, walking her 3 times a day, making sure she ate and took her meds. She sent us updates throughout the day and we could see how much our dog enjoyed spending time with her. We will definitely book her again! Thanks Aastha!
We were so fortunate to find April! She took wonderful care of our home and of our very delicate 16-year-old dog, who is, I’ll be honest, a lot to deal with. April had no problem with any of it, handled several difficulties (storm, blackout) with professionalism and grace, and sent us regular updates, including wonderful photos that really captured Parker’s personality— I could tell that she really cares about the animals she looks after. Our home was spotless and Parker was comfy and happy upon our return. I’ve already booked April to come back for more visits with Parker!
Katy is the best dog sitter we have ever had. She goes above and beyond to be kind and thoughtful. She has stayed at our house with our dogs for weeks while we travel abroad always taking the best care of Piper and Kaya, our high energy Border Collie/Aussie Shepherds. They go on hikes and all sorts of fun adventures with Katy. Our house is always left spotless. She is very communicative, responsible and easy going. We even had Katy fly out to Kauai to watch our dogs when we moved there temporarily after the Palisades fires. We highly recommend Katy.
Meng took such incredible care of our cat, Dom, and we truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She was extremely attentive, sent us constant pictures, and kept us regularly updated on how he was doing, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Not only was Dom clearly well cared for and happy, but Meng also left our apartment in pristine condition. It’s really hard to find a caregiver who is both reliable and dependable, and we feel so lucky to have found her. We will absolutely be booking with Meng again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and genuinely caring pet sitter.
