1. Emily S.

“Emily has been walking our dog at least weekly for about 2 months now. She’s excellent! She’s punctual, reliable, and great with our dog!”


2. Lauren Y.
“Lauren is amazing with pets! She’s taken care of both my dogs and cats a few times, and I always feel so comfortable leaving them in her hands. I have a German Shepherd who’s a big nervous baby, but she was so patient and gentle with her that my dog warmed right up to her. She’s super reliable, keeps me updated with pictures (the animals always look so happy in them!), and you can tell she genuinely loves animals. She’s even mentioned her own pet, and it’s clear she’s just as loving and attentive with hers as she is with mine. My pets are always happy and relaxed when I get back. I totally recommend Lauren if you’re looking for someone who will treat your furry friends like her own!”


3. Sydney M.
“Sydney has a huge heart for animals and a love of working out….in the words of Hannah Montana it’s the best of both worlds! Also she is the most responsible person I know.”

5. Elaine L.
“Elaine is an absolute Angel. She has taken care of my pets on many occasions and trust her completely. She’s very loving and caring and extremely responsible. Anyone would be so very lucky to have her care for your pets. She has tons of experience with all kinds of animals. She’s a true blessing”


6. Nicole G.

“Nicole is a great sitter and has watched our crazy girl Lulu quite a few times. She is patient, loving and provides amazing care. She has her own dog Kylie who is my dogs best friend! Kylie is cute sweet and loves to run around! Nicole has watched a lot of dogs including neighbors, friends, and families and I have never heard a bad thing. I would completely recommend having Nicole watch you pups as they will be loved and well taken care of as well as have a blast playing with Kylie and go on lots of long walks!”




7. Melanie R.
“When I’m in need of someone to take care of my Daisy, Melanie is my go to pet sitter. My pup is a rescue and has some issues with certain things that scare her. Melanie’s compassion and patience with my Daisy is top notch. I appreciate that she makes sure my pup is always comfortable ( even if it means taking up half the bed!) and in a peaceful environment whenever we leave Daisy with her at her house. And when we had in home animal care, Melanie is very thoughtful not only in making sure our pets are well cared for but our place seems to look better than when we left it! I will always use Melanie for all my pet and or house sitting needs.”


8. Sofia G.
About: As I grew up in a household full of animals, I am quite familiar with the skills it takes to properly care for a pet! I am used to the daily responsibilities and have experience with a wide variety of animals. I absolutely love spending time with animals and look forward to caring for more fur babies in the area! I am currently working part-time so I am quite flexible with pet sitting! I can cater to you and your pet's needs throughout the stay. I am able to adjust to each pet's unique needs and personality. I am willing to go at their pace and allow them to feel comfortable in their own space!


9. Liam R.
“Liam is very kind and great with cats and dogs. He has spent his entire life with animals and understands them well. If it’s long walks, overnight pet sitting, or daily visits, you need, your pet will be in good hands.”


10. Adrianne B.

“Adrianne is great! Very calm, friendly, and gentle approach to interacting with my dog. Also, great communication with me. Will definitely book her again.”


11. Shawn H.
“Shawn is the ultimate dog whisperer. All dogs love him and you can always feel comfortable when he’s caring for your pup! Extremely punctual, attentive, and reliable - all the things you need when you’re trusting someone with your fur baby.”


12. Sondra & Marius S.
“Sondra treated my fur babies as if they were her own. Snuggles, treats, playtime, and walks while watching my 3 dogs and 2 cats. One of my dogs is a senior pug who required a special diet and daily oral & topical medications. She was able to handle the routine and respected my specific instructions. I trust her implicitly and will definitely book her next time I'm out of town or need help getting them a little exercise.”


13. Irina T.

“Irina is super kind and easygoing! She made sure my little dog Chester was taken care of, and even went the extra mile to drive him to a shaded park for his walk. I loved getting pictures of his happy face! :)”


14. Merika S.
About: Im so excited to be working for you! What a treat to be able to love on your beautiful babies! I enjoy pet sitting so much because just like people, animals have their own personalities and it’s really neat for me to discover them in all the little fur friends I get to meet. I am good natured and loving and your pet will notice that right off the bat. I’m caring and compassionate and you won’t have to worry about your babies while I am there. I enjoy overnight stays because I know it’s important for them to be “at home”. It’s easy for me to feel at home wherever I go! I have a kitty and he stays home and is very content with that. He is a super friendly 15 lb MainCoon that has a very sweet personality. He’s always up for belly rubs. He does not accompany me on any of my stays or visits. I have several families that aren’t on rover that I just love so much. So their reviews aren’t on here. But if you need references, please let me know. I’m grateful for the opportunity to hang out with your fur family and know that you can rest easy knowing they are in good hands, I am open to visits and check ins or even long weekends or vacations. It would be great to come to you. Take a vacation and relax knowing your home and sweet babies are being lovingly cared for. Unfortunately I am unable to board any pets at this time. I don’t have the needed space to accommodate them. Thank you so very much!


15. Allison H.
“I have known Allison for 13 years and also worked with her at a veterinary clinic. You will never meet anyone who cares more about the well being of your pet, than Allison. Her love for animals and concern for their happiness and well being makes her the perfect pet sitter. Additionally, Allison pays incredible attention to detail and will follow your instructions for care down to the littlest detail. Her history working in the veterinary field also gives her invaluable insights, so she can recognize signs of distress or medical issues right away. If you want someone who will genuinely care for the well-being, safety and overall happiness of your pet, Allison is the sitter for you!!”


16. Laurel S.

“Laurel is amazing! Not only did she leave a note on how the visit/walk went but she took adorable pics of our doggy! It’s so obvious in the photos how happy he was spending time with her.”


17. Heather D.
About: I believe every dog and cat is special and will treat yours as so. I grew up with two cats and one dog. I love both equally. I understand that taking care of animals is not only about the necessities of food, water, and potty breaks. Companionship is also a key factor in ensuring the happiness and long life of your special animal. Currently, I have an open schedule and would be able to accommodate to your needs/work schedule easily. I love to be active, to hike, and to go on adventures. I will go to parks and play fetch with your dog. I will play tug of war. I will show them the love they deserve. They will always have fresh water and a companion you can rely on to provide them with the utmost care.


18. Mikayla K.
About: I was raised on a farm with a variety of animals, (such as chickens, goats, sheep, ducks, rabbits, etc.) along with being raised around multiple more familiar pets such as cats, dogs, birds, fish, and rodents (rats & mice). I started pet sitting for neighbors and friends at the age of 12 and have been taking jobs ever since. I’ve personally had two dogs, both of whom I’ve loved dearly and taught to come, sit, lay, stand up, dance, shake, and bark on command. I love meeting new animals and getting to know them and their needs, along with your own needs in the care you would like them to receive! I’m currently a undergraduate student at UCSD and for the summer I work part-time jobs or am busy with an internship, but I still make plenty of time to care if your pets! I accurately follow any directions or preferences you would like me to follow for your pets care. For example, in the past I’ve been asked to follow medication routines, walk schedules, and pets diets.


19. Aleah V.
“Aleah does an excellent job when she needs to take care of my pets. I have two cats and one dog, she knows how to read them and always makes sure their needs are taken care of. She has experience with maintaining the medications that my dog needs to intake as well. Aleah always goes above and beyond when she takes care of my pets and always makes sure to keep my place clean too!!”

I am able to care for common household chores as well.
