“Bridget provided exceptional care for our older cat! She is compassionate and reliable and went above and beyond dealing with some unexpected issues. I will definitely look to book her for future pet care needs.”
About: I’ve been caring for pets for 4 years and genuinely love being around animals. I’m responsible, patient, and attentive to each pet’s needs. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, giving fresh water, and making sure pets feel safe and cared for while their owners are away. I’ll always treat your pets like they’re my own! I’m a college student, and my classes are only on Tuesdays and Thursdays, so I’m available most of the day on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. I may also be available on weekends depending on my plans, so I’m happy to coordinate ahead of time with pet parents. I’m responsible, patient, and very attentive when caring for pets. When visiting a client’s home, I make sure pets are safe, comfortable, fed, and have fresh water. I follow the owner’s instructions carefully and always treat their home and pets with respect.
“Sophia took wonderful care of my cats! It means so much to have someone you can trust with your pets, and I’m so grateful for the care and attention she gave them. Knowing they were in good hands gave me peace of mind while I was away. I would happily book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable cat sitter. Thank you, Sophia! 🐾”
“Novia is extremely professional, kind and reliable and goes above and beyond. She sent multiple videos/photos and detailed reports on her visits daily. My husband and I looked forward to her videos so we could see our cats in action. So cute!!! We knew our boys were in good hands which meant peace of mind for us. Thank you Novia:)”
“Rachel was so great with my cat! She’s reliable, detailed and kind. My cat needs medications and she was a pro administering them to him. Thank you so much Rachel, I highly recommend you!”
“Irina sent us videos and pictures daily so we could see how well Teddy was doing. Teddy is in excellent health and spirits on our return. We are pleased with the great job Irina did for us.”
About: I’ve taken care of pets ever since I was young, I love animals! I have my own furry pet, and I consider him family :) I’m a full-time student, so my schedule varies throughout the week. I keep my Rover calendar updated and only accept bookings when I know I can provide your pet with dependable, attentive care! I have a social friendly 20lb dog that can keep your fur baby company, if requested! I live in an apartment with its own bark park but I know many safe nature routes, parks, and paved streets for any requested longer walks. I take my own fur baby on them often! :)
“Marcelle did amazing with Cokie! I was out of town for a few days and she kept me updated every visit and made sure Cokie was fed and happy! Will 100% recommend!!”
“Zhesi was amazing! Very communicative and accommodating! Sent lots of pictures and spent some quality time with my cats to make them feel loved while I was away! 10/10 recommend!”
“Vi took excellent care of my cat while I was traveling and is an absolute professional! From her flexibility to arrange a meet up over hectic travel schedules, to her attention to detail around care instructions, Vi made me feel comfortable that my cat was well loved and cared for while I was away. Thank you!!”

I’ve taken care of pets my whole life, including my own cats since childhood. I currently have two cats that I adopted two years ago. I have extensive experience with cats, including senior kitties who need medication and extra support. While I specialize in cat care, I have also cared for many dogs as a pet sitter since middle school. As a graduate student, I have a flexible schedule and can check on your pet frequently. I am available on weekdays, weekends, and most holidays. I’m reliable and detail oriented, and will make sure to follow care instructions precisely. I will keep your home safe and clean for your pets while you are away.

“Hannah is such a sweetheart! She was so considerate and conscious of the space and of my fur bb. (As well as pleasantly communicative and professional throughout our experience )💖 It’s obvious that she’s authentically an animal lover through and through 🥰”
About: Hi, I’m Courtney! I’m based right in CDM steps from Crystal Cove, and I absolutely love what I do. My days are spent walking the coast, hiking the trails, and giving dogs the kind of attention and care that actually makes a difference. It’s genuinely my favorite part of my day. I’ve had dogs of my own for 15+ years and have experience with a wide range of breeds I can read body language, understand what a dog needs in the moment, and adjust on the fly. I have a special love for working breeds and high-energy dogs who actually want to do something on a walk. I work from home running a wellness business, so your dog gets real time and presence not someone rushing between jobs. Walks with me mean actual coastal adventures: Crystal Cove trails, Little Corona Beach, tide pool paths with ocean views. I’m an early riser, I keep a consistent schedule, and I pay attention to how your dog is feeling that day. My home is calm, clean, and non-toxic that’s just how I live. Good energy, no chaos, and plenty of cozy spots to decompress between adventures. You’ll get photos and updates so you always know they’re happy and well. I keep my roster small because I actually want to know your dog their quirks, their favorite spots, what makes them light up. Whether you need a reliable daily walker or someone to love on them while you travel, I’d love to meet them! 🐾 Working from home in my fitness & nutrition business means pets get constant attention and care. It's a daily dose of exercise and joy that complements my healthy lifestyle. Walks, fetch, or just quiet moments, pets make my day and yours brighter! When it comes to pet care, it's all about their turf. I'm a firm believer in maintaining their routine at home, where they're comfy and happy. I seamlessly fit into their schedule, whether it's mealtime, playtime, or cuddle time. Rest assured, your pet's happiness and well-being are my top priorities!
“I very pleased with Elizabeth’s kindness and attentiveness! I am beyond neurotic when it comes to my fur babies lol and I have incredibly high expectation of their care and safety - They are my children. I found Elizabeth’s profile and although it’s always nerve wracking to entrust someone with your “kids” you just met, I had a good feeling about her in our messages. we arranged a meet and greet prior to our first Christmas Day evening visit and she was just wonderful. She listened closely to their routine at our meet and greet, and was very sweet and personable. She sent many photos during their Christmas Day visit which is always appreciated; She coaxed our pup who is a picky eater to eat more of his dinner which was a win and our very shy young cat even came out to say hi to her which never happens! I had notated in their care notes to stay in well lit areas on the walk with our pup due to coyotes and I could tell from the photos and map in rover she did exactly that- It means the world that she paid attention and customized their visit with our requests. I can tell She has a kind heart for animals and I am grateful we found her. We came home that night to two happy, well fed and content babies- already planning their next visit with her in January. Thank you Elizabeth!”
About: What sets me apart is the level of care and responsibility I bring to every pet. 🐾 As both a mother and a pet mom, caring for others is already a huge part of my everyday life. I understand the importance of trust, patience, safety, routines, and attention to detail. Your pet will be cared for like part of my own family with plenty of love, playtime, and attention.

I have a cozy, secure space and two small furry friends of my own who are friendly and enjoy the company of other pets. 🐾 I also have young adult kids who are animal lovers, so your little critter will have plenty of extra love, attention, and helping hands during their stay.

Sophia was timely, took lots of photos, and was super attentive to Monty during her stop in visit. We can tell from the pictures how happy he was to play with her, and was wiped out by the time she left. We appreciate her attention to detail when being around our house without us home. Thank you Sophia!
Rachel was superbly communicative, enthusiastic, and helpful throughout our trip. We were incredibly grateful to have her looking after our kitties. She gave us the peace of mind needed to enjoy our trip without worrying too much about the family we could not bring with us.
Kailyr did a great job taking care of our two cats this weekend while we were away — When she came over to meet them before we left, she asked great questions and took a lot of notes, and our kitties warmed up to her immediately. While we were gone she sent lots of pictures and videos and gave us detailed notes on how they were doing and how they were during the visit. She has a lot of experience taking care of animals and is responsible and communicative — Very much recommended!
Miranda was great with taking care of our 6 year old cat. She was very communicative and sent us lots of photos of our baby during her visits. She played with her and gave us updates on how much she was eating. Our girl is shy and she warmed up to Miranda very quickly. We felt at ease knowing she was in great care while we were away. Thank you! 😻
Nancy was simply wonderful. I am so glad to have found her because she took such good care of my cats and made me feel very comfortable about leaving my cats for a couple of weeks. She was extremely professional, communicative, and I could tell she was great with pets because my very shy cats came out to greet her… so unlike them and a great sign. I would not hesitate to book her again. Thanks Nancy!!!
Irene was absolutely wonderful! This was our first time using Rover, and since my wife and I were traveling across the world, we were definitely a little nervous about leaving our two cats, Genesis and Kasos, at home. From our very first meet and greet to the last day, Irene was incredibly thoughtful, kind, and attentive. She sent us daily updates with pictures of the cats, which made such a difference. It honestly felt like we weren’t even away because we got to see Genesis and Kasos every day and know they were happy and well taken care of. After our initial meet and greet, Irene even offered to come back for another one because she could tell we were a little nervous. That meant so much to us! She spent time playing with the cats, brushing them, and giving them plenty of attention. We would highly recommend Irene to anyone looking for someone they can completely trust with their pets. She gave us so much peace of mind that we were able to truly enjoy our vacation knowing Genesis and Kasos were in great hands. We will absolutely be using Irene again! ❤️🐱🐱
Emily was very sweet and attentive with our senior dog. From the initial meet & greet, we could tell she handles these bookings with great professionalism and attention to detail. Even though our dog can take a minute to come around to new people, she was super patient and made him feel comfortable. Would recommend!
Rachael is great. Stormi seems to like her and feel comfortable. Rachael was so quick to agree to a meet and greet before our scheduled check-ins and she made me feel super comfortable and confident that she would be able to take great care of my Stormi. I received updates and pictures which was soooo nice. She will definitely be my go to now 🫶🏼🙌🏼
