“Did a great job taking care of our cat including litter box cleaning, filling our automatic wet food feeder, giving him his treats, playing with him and brushing him. Dropoff and pickup of the key was super seamless. Very happy!”

“Tina was great with our pit who is a little hyper and sometimes reactive. She has a calm presence and took notes of everything we mentioned during our meet and greet. Every dog has different wants and needs and she made sure to cater to our pup. I highly recommend her and will be using her again during our next trip out of town.”

“Alina is reliable and she is great with Pablo. She treats him like family and cares for him exceptionally. She communicates promptly and openly. She’s a trusted sitter and someone I know I can count on to care for my baby.”

“Did so well with my pup despite him being a little territorial when first meeting her. She won him over and was very pleasant to work with. Also took some adorable pictures to update us during the drop in visit :)”

“Jordan is awesome. My dog Lexi has separation anxiety and had a rough time the first day I was gone. Jordan was flexible and understanding allowing for some adjustments that helped Lexi relax and be less anxious and the remaining went smoothly. So grateful for Jordan. She is patient, caring understanding and so much more. I was able to enjoy my trip knowing Lexi was in great hands with Jordan.”

“This was my first time leaving my cat with someone new, and I was really stressed. But she took great care of him, kept me updated with pictures, and made my last-minute trip so much easier. Thank you!!”

“Kory did a great job watching my cat Mojo, he spent time with him and gave me updates everyday :) Highly recommend Kory to take care of your pet”

“Amanda was amazing! She gave our dog such good care and sent us plenty of photos and updates on everything they did. She went above and beyond taking our dog for walks and letting her get lots of sniffs out and about!”

“Johnny was absolutely amazing with Pepper! He played with her, sent me pictures and updates, and was so sweet and complimentary about her. His communication was excellent, and I felt completely at ease knowing my beloved girl was in such caring hands. I couldn’t have asked for a better person to care for her and would absolutely book with Johnny again!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs for decades and will treat your babies like the royalty they are. My home is their home when they are here. I’m home all day with my three babies, so I have the capacity to frequently take your kiddos on walks & playtime out in the fenced yard I have three dogs on my own that are friendly after getting acclimated to other visiting dogs. I have a completely separate room if needed for solitude while boarding.
“Samantha took great care of Sheba. Was on time and provided details of what was going on. She was even able to extend the time I needed her on a last minute notice. I will definitely use her to take care of Sheba and would highly recommend her to others”

About: I have been a pet parent for many years and understand that every pet is unique. I currently share my home with two Huskies and four cats ranging in age from 3 to 20 years old, giving me experience caring for pets at every stage of life. One of my greatest joys has been caring for senior pets and learning their individual routines, personalities, and needs. I understand that older pets often require extra patience, attention, and gentle care. I also have experience with energetic dogs, independent cats, and the many different personalities that make our pets so special. I treat every animal as an individual and will provide the same loving, dependable care that I would want for my own pets. I work from home and have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide dependable care for your pets. I am able to offer drop-in visits, dog walks, and house sitting while making sure each pet receives individual attention and care. I enjoy incorporating pet care into my routine and taking the time to provide more than just the basics—making sure pets feel comfortable, loved, and cared for while their families are away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I understand that inviting someone into your home to care for your pets is a big responsibility, and I will treat both your pets and your home with respect. During visits, I will follow your instructions carefully, maintain your pet’s normal routines, provide meals, fresh water, exercise, playtime, litter box care, and any needed medications. I will pay attention to your pet’s behavior and communicate with you through updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I believe pets are family, and I will care for yours with the same patience, kindness, and attention I give my own.

About: I have taken care of animals for as long as I can remember! I’ve taken care my sister’s dog, my cousin’s puppy, my friend’s chickens, and my friend’s dog too, over the years. I recently decided to give the Rover community a chance. I am constantly around animals and having to commit myself to taking care of them. I am comfortable around all dogs and am willing to adapt and learn how to best care for your animal. When I come to take care of, play with, and walk your dogs I will dedicate my time to loving them. I would love to be able to take them to the dog park where they can also interact with other animals while you're away! I have one fur baby of my own - a brown pit mix who is full of energy and curiosity! I currently have a lot of free time on my hands, which will allow me to dedicate all the time necessary to your lifelong companions. I am available for drop ins or house sitting when needed! I am also flexible and can accept last minute bookings. I’m a reliable, caring dog walker who’ll treat your pup like family. When in your home, I would take your fur baby for walks, to dog parks, anything you already do with them to make them the most comfortable. I also provide video and picture updates of your baby’s day.
“Keyla took great care of our dog Charlie while we went out for an appointment. She is very friendly and we would trust her to watch our dog again! She even sent pictures so we could check in on how Charlie was doing since it was our first time leaving him.”
About: I’m a dependable, caring, and trustworthy pet lover who understands that your pets are family. I’m patient, attentive, and love giving pets plenty of affection, playtime, walks, and companionship. I currently own a cleaning business, so I am available several times throughout the day as they make my own schedule. I will always make time to take care of your dogs and cats. I will always follow your direction in caring for your fur babies. I do always have extra items on me and follow all leash laws and neighborhood guidelines.

“Celine is amazing she treated our cat & dog like one of her own! It was so nice to know that our fur babies were in such great hands while we were away! Not only did she take stellar care of our pets she went above and beyond to accommodate all of our needs. We are so grateful for her! Anytime we go away she will be our go to!”

About: As a YouTube writer for Chewy, I spent years immersed in the pet world—learning from veterinarians, trainers, behaviorists, and the animals themselves. That experience taught me how to notice the little things: body language, emotional signals, changes in behavior, and the unique routines that help each pet feel safe and comfortable. I’ve cared for dogs, puppies, senior pets, cats, and dog-reactive dogs, and I’m comfortable administering medication. Most importantly, I know there’s no one-size-fits-all approach to pet care. I’ll take the time to learn your pet’s personality, quirks, routines, and preferences so they feel cared for and you feel 100% assured they’re being loved on while you’re away! I work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to provide attentive, reliable pet care throughout the day. I have a regular walking routine with my own dog, plus fully fenced front and backyards for safe outdoor time. I’m also available to make drop-in visits to homes in my area, while keeping pets’ routines, exercise needs, and individual personalities in mind. In my home, pets enjoy a safe, comfortable environment with a fully fenced front and backyard, daily walks, and a calm routine alongside my own dog. I’ll follow your pet’s schedule, preferences, and comfort level so they feel at home. For care in your home, my TrustedHousesitters experience has taught me to be respectful, tidy, communicative, and mindful of your space. I’ll care for your pets and home as thoughtfully as I would my own.
About: I provide loving, reliable pet sitting tailored to each animal’s needs. Whether it’s dogs, cats, or birds, I treat your pets like family, ensuring they’re happy, safe, and well cared for while you’re away. I’m currently a hairstylist who makes my own schedule and I have a lot of free time. What better way than to spend my free time caring for animals! I make sure to create a safe, calm environment whether I’m at your home or mine. I follow your pet’s routine closely feeding, playtime, bathroom breaks, and lots of attention. I keep an eye on their behavior and comfort, giving them love and care so they feel relaxed and happy while you’re away.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Riverside
Morgan was amazing and I already plan on booking her again! She did hourly check-ins on my cat while I was traveling, and my cat is somewhat of a sassy girl, and takes a while to warm up to people. Seeing their relationship progress through the photos was so cute, and after a couple days she was snuggling Morgan and in her lap - which does NOT happen easily! I came back to a kitty who I knew was well taken care of, and my place was in perfect condition, with a nice note from Morgan. 100% recommend her!

Alina was incredibly attentive, responsible, and communicative. She kept me updated, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. It’s not easy leaving your dog with someone else, but Alina made the entire experience feel effortless. My dog was clearly comfortable and happy with her, and that says everything.

Sophia was awesome with our two kitties! She wrote super sweet daily updates "from" the kitties and took so many photos, which made us feel so comfortable being away on our trip. She is great with communication and overall just a nice person. 100% recommend Sophia and will definitely be reaching out again the next time we need drop in visits!

Jason watched our two cats — one elderly and independent, and one young, shy, and anxious — during our two‑week international trip, and he was amazing. He came twice a day, handled meals, litter boxes, and even supervised their outdoor patio time. He never missed a visit or check-in. He also spent extra time on the visits if he could, and helped us with mail/packages that arrived while we were gone. Really above and beyond. He sent photos and detailed notes every visit, which made us feel totally at ease while we were away. The best part was how he bonded with our extra‑shy cat. She usually hides from everyone, but Jason spent extra time with her each visit, letting her warm up at her own pace. After a few days, they were basically best buddies — she wasn’t hiding anymore and actually came out to greet him. It made us so happy that our babies were happy! We’d book Jason again in a heartbeat.

We love Shelby so much! From the pictures he takes of our cats to the messages he leaves about them on the report card, he always makes sure that we know our cats are being well taken care of (: Shelby always makes sure that the apartment is clean as well!! Thank you so much as always!

Andrea is very patient and accommodating and she took such a great care of my cat when I am away for a whole week! I got home and was welcomed by a very healthy and clingy cat (as expected) and everything was perfect! I will definitely book Andrea again (if she were available) in the future!

Sophia was amazing with helping us take care of our cat for a week. She left detailed reports on her rover card, took plenty of very cute photos, and made sure to follow our instructions precisely each visit. Really helped us be less stressed while we were out of town, and would 100% ask for her services again!

Tina is amazing! She is so great with our three kitties, and we have been so grateful knowing they are in good hands when we travel. We even had a kitty that needed some meds, and she was so great with making sure he took them and stayed on track. Can’t recommend her enough!
