About: I'm ready for hot girl walks for the time and I hope your pup is too. I've grown up and raised dogs of my own, but being in California for school meant leaving him (Butter) behind temporarily. My heart is empty and open to welcome and love yours. I am a second year PA student so most of my schedule is made by me, which will allow me to be flexible and have ample time to feed, walk, and play with your best friend! I treat every pet like my own and aim to create a safe, cozy, and fun environment. I follow routines, keep things pet-safe, and make sure each pet gets the attention and playtime they need. You’ll also get updates along the way and as many additional ones you'd like!
“I've had to do a few last minute bookings and Carissa has been absolute lifesaver! I sincerely appreciate her flexibility and her kindness and attention to my animals :)”
“Carolina did an amazing job with my pup. She’s played with him as well as fed him. She also made sure that I was updated and communicated very well with me. I definitely recommend her and will definitely hire her again for Koda.”
About: I’m an absolute pet person. Family and friends always ask me to sit for their pets and they don’t think twice or worry about it. My days need to be filled with enjoyment and fun. My availability will absolute work around weekends and we can always make weekdays work 🫶🏽 If you feel completely comfortable with me sitting your pet at your home I will completely respect and follow any and all rules made 😊
About: I have done rover in a different state for a few years and loved it! It’s such a fun gig, and best of all I get to make a lot of new fur friends. I’ve taken care of all kinds of animals, and have always had pets of my own. I can’t wait to meet you and yours! I’m looking to make this a mostly permanent job! I love pets and being able to make money while doing something I love seems like the dream to me! I can dote after your pets. I’ll make sure they’re cared for just how they need to be, and exactly how you want them to be!
About: Have previously worked with dogs the size of chihuahuas to golden retrievers! Love taking them on walks, dog parks, or even catching the waves at the beach! Familiar with cats and hamsters as well! I am currently available everyday from 8am-10pm! Currently have an open schedule to care for your pets! No matter the occasion or care needed. I care for your pets the way I care for my own, i’m a loving and safe place. I will respect your home, and can even provide light cleaning if asked.
“Trusted cat sitter and highly recommended! We had an stress-free vacation knowing our cat was in good hands with Andrea. We received lots of regular updates and Marley got tons of attention and cuddles while we were away.”
About: What sets me apart is my hands-on experience with dogs of very different sizes, ages, and needs. I have three dogs of my own, including two small poodle-Lhasa Apso mixes and one large 100-pound dog, so I am very comfortable caring for both small and large breeds. I also have experience with senior care because one of my dogs is 14, which has taught me to be patient, gentle, and attentive to changes in comfort, energy, and routine. I understand that every dog is different, and I make sure to adjust my care to what helps each dog feel safe, relaxed, and loved. I am reliable, observant, and genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs, and I would treat every pet with the same care and attention I give my own. Pet care is already a natural part of my daily and weekly routine because I care for my own pets every day. I am used to feeding, walking, giving attention, cleaning up after pets, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable. Because caring for animals is already part of my life, adding pet sitting and dog walking fits in well with my routine. I enjoy being active and spending time with animals, so this feels like a meaningful and natural way to use my time while helping other pet owners. I focus on making pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while keeping their normal routine as consistent as possible. In a client’s home, I would follow all care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, playtime, fresh water, litter box cleaning, and any other routines the pet is used to. I would also make sure pets get plenty of attention, affection, and supervision so they feel secure while their owner is away. No matter the setting, I pay attention to each pet’s personality and needs, because some pets want lots of play and interaction while others need a gentler, quieter approach. My goal is always to make pets feel as relaxed, loved, and comfortable as possible.
“Tessa is an amazing addition to our weekly routine. She is very communicative and reliable. My dog is very shy and slow to warm, but he has been easily won over by Tessa’s care and consistency. I do not have to worry if my dog is safe or able to go outside, due to Tessa’s drop-in services.”
About: Hello! My name is Brianna. I love all dogs and cats. I have become the de facto pet-sitter among all my friends and family over the last 4 years. I thought I would continue my love of pets on Rover! I've taken care of animals of all sizes; from under 10 lbs. small dogs and cats all the way to 60 lbs. German Shepard mixes! I'm am currently on summer break, so pet care fits right into my schedule. I am available for dog walking or house sitting most mornings, days and evenings! I will strive to create a familiar and stable routine for your pet filled with love and care; while also respecting your home. I am of the firm belief that if the animal should let you, you have to pet them. So rest assured that any pet of any size will be showered with affection.
“Jingying and Alex were great! They really cared to do an in-person meet up beforehand to understand all my pets needs. They asked great questions to double-check all the care details. Highly recommend!!”
“Yichen was so great! I feel like she went above and beyond checking on all his automatic devices. She was so detailed and very loving to my baby kitten (actually adult). I’m so glad I was able to find her and I will definitely book her again if I can! Thank you for looking after my baby and giving him the love while I’m away!”
“I am SO grateful for Ashely. She is so warm and wonderful and an absolute cat whisperer 💕 My cats don’t come out for anyone else. I don’t think I could ever leave town without her.”
“Doug has been the best dog Walker so far for Ollie! But today we found out Doug is also the best dog sitter! He came over and cared for and played and fed for Ollie while we were out for the day. We feel so safe have Doug care for our sweet Ollie!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats of every kind since I was 12 years old. I have a great reputation and known for being very caring and friendly towards pets. I’m a dog and cat bather too so I can also bath your pet! I currently work part time so I have plenty of spare time to care for your pets. I work in the mornings so I have the afternoons free for your pets. I will make sure your pet is safe indoors or outdoors. I will cradle your pet if needed to keep them safe from any visitors you might be having in your home or the mailman.

Santa Ana cat parents share their Rover experiences
Aurora is an attentive, compassionate, and exceptional cat sitter. She individualized her care to our cats, and spent ample time playing with them and cleaning up after them during each visit. She sent great photos and our very social cats looked genuinely at ease. We would highly recommend her services and book her again!
Astrid was absolutely amazing with our 2 boys! We had no one to turn to while we were away for our wedding and Astrid was able to provide such excellent service and keep them company! We are so so grateful for her and anyone who books with her can be confident that their pets are in great hands!
Tala was AMAZING with my sweet boy! She always provided updates and photos with each drop-in visit and was always quick to respond. From the updates, it seemed that my cat loved their time together! Lots of play time and cuddles 🥰 Tala is so kind and you can tell she truly loves taking care of pets!
Andrew was wonderful. He kept us informed and updated on our 2 kitties every visit. He paid attention to details and did everything we asked him to do, and beyond. Our scaredy cat was even okay with his visits. If we were to need a cat sitter again Andrew would be by first and most favored choice. Our house, cats, and peace of mind were safe and at ease because of Andrew...I highly recommend his services.
Alexsys did a fantastic job taking care of our pets! She gave them the perfect amount of attention, ensured they were well tended to and provided us with detailed updates throughout our time away, alleviating any anxiety we may have had about leaving our pets while on vacation.
Normally, when we don't have someone able to check in on Deejay when we're gone for longer periods of time, I notice he gets stressed and really lonely (crying and sometimes gets respiratory infections/sneezing). However, after Kristine spent extra time to keep him company while we were out of town, he was brighter and less sniffly when we came back! She was also extremely responsive with sending pictures and updates and extremely attentive with questions to go above and beyond our asks. I'll definitely need to book with Kristine every time now.
Joy was the ultimate professional, and went above and beyond to make my cat feel seen, and loved while I was out of town. I could never compliment her enough for the high quality work she did. If I was given the chance to hire her 100 more times, I would do do it every time. Thank you, Joy!
