“Devenee was so wonderful and she was able to win my cat over very quickly despite my cat being super shy to new people. The photos she sent of my cat are some of my favorites of her now. I'll be rebooking with her for future travels as long as she is available to watch my cat.”
About: For 8.5 years, I cared for my Maltipoo (Piku, 16.5 yo) and teacup Pomeranian (Cola 14.5 yo) and have extensive, personal experience caring for senior dogs that require special attention including multiple medications (eye care, syringes, tablets), special diets, seizure management and more. As small as my dogs were, I made sure to take them on walks and then “snifaris” in the stroller so they could enjoy the fullest lives possible, and would love to help your best friend do the same! I’ve had the pleasure of caring for friends’ precious cats including play, feeding, and litter clean up and make sure to give them tailored care. I’m passionate about listening to and understanding animals and hope I can help bring peace of mind to you and your family! I’m currently available every day of the week at all times so am able to accommodate a variety of needs! If you need more frequent drop-ins or walks, please feel free to let me know. I’d love to accommodate if I can. I will meticulously read any and all instructions you provide, as I understand that you know your pet best! I would love to meet your pet first to make sure they comfortable around me and am willing to meet multiple times if necessary.
About: Hi, my name is Candace and I have been a member of Rover.com starting March 21, 2012 from Dog Hosting to my current position as Dog Walker. As a recent college graduate with experience as a home care aide, I am eager to use my skills to provide dedicated pet care, ensuring your furry companion receives the attention and care they deserve while you maintain a balanced lifestyle, and I am available on weekends and holidays to integrate into your daily or weekly routine. My belief is dogs are family and I will treat your dog similarly to how I treat my own dog who is the apple of my eye.
About: As a certified energy healer of people and pets (especially dogs and cats), I deeply connect with them and feel and understand their love and empathy. I truly believe that they are angels and therapists and I love to spend time with them. I look forward to receiving your trust to love and care for them. I have a flexible schedule and can work around the time that I am caring for my family and pets etc. during my available hours. It depends on which service is requested while always strictly adhering to Rover policies as well as the client’s needs. Will send regular updates and photos.
About: I have been volunteering at an animal shelter since I was 15, where I walked, fed, cleaned, and played with both dogs and cats every week. Through this experience, I became comfortable caring for pets with different personalities, sizes, energy levels, and needs. I’ve also pet sat and walked many dogs for friends, family, and neighbors, and I always make sure animals feel safe, cared for, and loved while their owners are away. I am currently a full-time student at UCLA, but I usually only have one class a day so I have a lot of free time to take care of your pets! I am available for walking everyday, and available for drop-ins everyday except Tuesday and Wednesday. When caring for pets in their homes, I focus on keeping their routines consistent so they feel comfortable and secure. I make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and affection while also keeping their space clean and respecting each owner’s instructions and preferences.
About: I've had dogs my whole life; from a Chihuahua to a German Shepard! Last summer I lost my 17 year old baby and I'm not ready to get another dog yet but I have the time and knowledge to watch yours! I volunteer at an animal shelter every week and sometimes I foster. I love going on long walks multiple times a day so it would be a bonus to bring your pup along! I have experience with senior dogs and medicine. I work 4 days a week and I make my own schedule so I can easily do a midday walk even if I'm working that day. If I'm not out walking or working I'm usually just at home reading and would love to have a furry friend next to me. I work Wednesday through Saturday as a hairdresser, I make my own schedule so I can easily schedule mid day walks. Most mornings I walk for 1-2 hours already so I'd love to bring a pup along. After work, I just stay in and read usually so I'd be a great companion. I'm a great house sitter, I'm very chill and clean and respectful. I can take your dogs on walks and also play with them in the houses and truly love them like they are my own.
“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 🥰”
“Garrett was amazing. He was patient with my puppy and even was able to put her harness on, of which I couldn’t do without a fuss. Now she sits and lets me put it on no problem. I will definitely hire him again and again. Highly recommended him to anyone.”
About: I’ve grown up with cats and have one myself. I live in Costa Mesa and work from home. I’m able to stop by whenever and wherever for a quick visit or longer stay. For overnights, I prefer to meet briefly over video before the day arrives. I work from home Monday through Friday at 8 AM to 4 PM but I can also stop in for lunchtime if you are nearby. If you’d like me to come for a longer stay, then I can bring my laptop and work from your apartment so that your pet has some company for a longer period of time. I love pets and I can provide lots of flexibility to you when it comes to cancellation and last-minute bookings. I am so appreciative of your trust and will treat your loved ones as if they were my own. I could not live my life without pets- the mutual love and support they provide and supported me my whole life. I am so happy to find this service where I can conveniently check in on loved pets easily with my flexible schedule. I’m typically open to saying a bit longer than the allotted time if able. I am open to sharing cat food so please let me know if you need some and I will bring it. :)
“Elli was incredible - SO responsive and responsible!! She took such great care of ShiShi while I was out of town. She was detailed with her questions and made sure that she had everything she needed to look after ShiShi. Highly recommend and would absolutely book again!!”
“I had a potential emergency with my beloved Russell and she was able to make an extra, last minute stop over while I was away and mediate the issue! Russell is happy and healthy again! Thank you!!”
About: I worked at The Bone Adventure and have experience in dog behavior awareness/body postures, group supervision, feeding routines, animal safety, time management, and cleaning/sanitation. If you’ve ever sent your dog to The Bone Adventure, I already know them by name! ;) I am currently working VERY tiny two hour shifts during the week on certain days that I am needed. I should be pretty flexible unless told otherwise and I’ll always make sure that I can be accommodating for my clients! I am a very fast learner and it helps me out a lot if my clients can write down their pets feeding schedules, priorities, triggers and general behaviors in certain situations. This is so that I can keep their dogs’ needs and safety in mind and never mix up their priorities with other clients.
About: Colin: My love for animals began as a child and flourished into what it is today. Ever since I was younger, I have been surrounded by dogs, cats, and various other pets. One day in high school, my parents brought home a beautiful wheaten terrier who quickly became my best friend as I nurtured and trained her. That day forward, friends, families, and colleagues have entrusted me with looking after their wonderful furry friends. Bonnie: I absolutely adore animals! I wish I could be a Disney Princess so I could be surrounded by them all day long! I've lived with dogs, birds, and fish my entire life, and I wouldn't have it any other way. I strongly believe that our furry friends need our unconditional love, respect, and care. That is the mantra of how I have nourished and nurtured all of my fur babies their entire lives! I work from home and have a lot of time outside assignments to give your pets my full attention, and will be able to make sure they get daily exercise. I typically go for extensive walks about 1-4 times daily. I have a pet-friendly home filled with many toys, food and treats, grooming supplies, first-aid tools, beds, and crates. Additionally, I am located between two parks and am within walking distance of the Back Bay Trail.
About: Will keep in communication with owners - sending photos and updates! I'm a remote worker and can provide attentive at home love and care. I enjoy an active lifestyle and will exercise with your animal to whatever extent they need. I've dealt with energetic dogs and cats who needed long walks and play as well as older animals who enjoy a calmer attention. In my 15 years of pet care, I have provided animals with oral as well as topical medication. As someone who's always been an animal lover, I look forward to getting to know your animal. Providing your pet a staycation while you're away! I currently work remotely so will have plenty of time to provide love and attention to your pet! I usually go on a long walk or run in the morning and can go on a few more throughout the day if needed. I make sure to be aware of the animal's behaviors beforehand in order to properly supervise them. I ensure they feel as little loss as possible when their family is away by knowing their routines, favorite things to do, and more!
“Very good first meeting. Jordy loved Tina. She's very good with big dogs and ours has separation anxiety. He had no trouble going out with her alone and I could tell he was very comfortable with her.”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Santa Ana Heights
Anna was amazing with communication and attention to detail while taking care of our cat Noah. She definitely went above and beyond and even spent extra time with him. I would not hesitate to have her look after him again and would recommend Anna to anyone looking for help with their fur baby.
Marne was fantastic! She kept us updated with thoughtful messages and plenty of pictures, which made it so much easier to relax while we were away. We felt completely comfortable having her in our home, and she took wonderful care of our little guy. She even cleaned up an unexpected hairball surprise, which we really appreciated. We’ll definitely book with her again.
Candice was wonderful!!! Both my kitties love her so much! The photos I got made me feel like I was there. And, she went above and beyond to repair a small hole Bunny put in a window screen. I couldn’t ask for a more responsible, sensible, and sensitive pet sitter.
She was a great cat sitter! She was always on time, reliable, and kept us updated while we were away, which gave us so much peace of mind. She also brought in our packages and watered our plants, which we really appreciated. Our cat was in great hands, and we'd definitely book with her again!
Kayla was fantastic looking after George and Mags this week. She was reliable, communicative, and gave me regular updates with photos after each drop-in visit, which gave me real peace of mind while I was away. It was clear that she genuinely cared about them and made sure they were well looked after. I came home to two happy, relaxed cats, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book Kayla again or recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter. Thank you, Kayla!
Mahaam took care of my cat over the past five days and she was fantastic. She reliably cleaned the litter box, fed my cat and even cleaned up when my cat threw up, which I appreciated more than she knows. Her updates were reassuring, her care was thoughtful and it was clear she genuinely wanted my cat to feel comfortable while I was away. I’d absolutely request her again the next time I’m traveling.
Ashley was amazing with my cats. You can tell she genuinely cares about animals and pays attention to the little details. She kept me updated with photos and messages, and I felt super at ease knowing they were with someone reliable and caring. My cats warmed up to her quickly, which honestly says a lot. Everything was smooth, stress-free, and I came home to very happy cats. Would definitely book with her again

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
