Thank you for everything this week! Knowing you are with Cody when we are gone prevents worry and stress. Margaret is always so helpful and on point when we are away and need someone to sit with Cody!

Aolani took great care of our cat, Ralphie, while we were out of town for a weekend and made sure to provide plenty of updates and photos! Our cat loved Aolani's pets, and she left our home in great shape. Would absolutely recommend and book again.

Mark went above and beyond when caring for our pup Kato. He took him on multiple walks a day, played toys with him and sent us tons of pics to check in. We felt confident Kato was having an awesome time on his vacation while we were on ours! Mark was also super communicative and respectful in our home, leaving everything as it was before we left. We will definitely be reaching out to him again for more dog sitting! He's a gem!

About: Hello - I'm Robert! I'm excited to meet you and your very best friend. I've looked after both dogs and cats for the last 10 years. I also used to be a high school teacher, so I know a thing or two about wild animals! Most recently I supported my girlfriend's two corgis on their journey to the rainbow bridge. It was truly an honor to care for them both. I'm not currently working a full-time job, so I can be available for most weekdays and weekends. I like to keep busy though, so please book with as much notice as you can. Thanks! If you board your pet with me, they will be in a large house on the westside. We have 2 dog-friendly cats that also love visitors!

elizabeth took care of our dog, scrabble, for a long weekend and did the best job!!! scrabble is not the easiest dog. he is on immunotherapy and a lot of pills for nerve damage and arthritis, and also requires daily heat and cold rehab. plus, he can occasionally be reactive with other dogs. elizabeth did a fantastic job handling all of these extra responsibilities and duties! she took frequent pictures and was easy to get a hold of if we wanted updates. we are planning on hiring elizabeth again in the future whenever we go out of town! thank you, elizabeth!

Maggie was amazing at taking care of our girl! She kept us updated on how our cat was doing and acclimating to her being around. She was attentive to our cat’s behaviors and making sure she wasn’t getting herself into trouble with items we had laying around the house when we left. Maggie made the meet and greet and end process easy, and took good care of our house when leaving at the end of the stay. Definitely recommend her to watch your fur babies!

About: I grew up in Western PA with various golden retrievers and a mini golden doodle. I am looking to hangout with dogs as I miss mine dearly, and i’m unable to have my own at this time! I am able to handle large dogs but also love a little one too. I’m currently a full time dental resident, so i’m looking to work with dogs on evenings & weekends! I really just want to give your dog some love & also get my dog fix in as my family’s dogs are all in Pennsylvania! I can meet at your place & take your dog to wherever suits them best — park, leashed walk, etc! I have been an animal lover my whole life and am super adaptable to whatever your dog needs.

So happy to have found Greg through friends who booked him on Rover. It was a last minute holiday sit, he stayed at my home with my 2 year old dog who can be a bit rambunctious at times. Greg asked all the right questions - about both my home and my dog - which made me feel like everything was in great hands. He even fixed my janky doorknob when it fell off, and offered to descale my espresso machine which was overdue for a cleaning. And he sent the best updates throughout the day so I knew Enzo was having a great time. It’s the first time I’ve ever booked through Rover to have someone stay in my home, and so glad I did! Would definitely recommend. Dog and house were well taken care of!

About: I grew up with a Shar Pei, a Weimaraner, a Pug, a French Bulldog, and I currently have a American Bully/Dachshund mix. As a kid, I would also play with and care for the animals in my neighborhood. I am skilled with dogs ranging in size from 2-160 pounds. I used to volunteer my Sundays with Much Love Animal Rescue at their Santa Monica and Century City locations. Dogs have always had a special place in my heart and the bond between humans and dogs is something to cherish. If your dog wants tug-o-war, fetch, belly rubs, or a companion to be with, then look no further: I am a dog lover from the beginning to the end of the doggie spectrum! I am currently working from home and have a flexible schedule. I am available for regularly scheduled walks/visits/feedings for your loved ones. I am also happy to help out on a last minute basis. I am happy to come to your home once or multiple times a day and/or overnights if needed. Your pets needs are my priority so you can trust me to show up when a plan is in place.

Katy is the most patient person I have ever met! She took care of my stubborn big boy for over a week and he had a wonderful time. Katy was in touch every day and sent me pictures. Tyler really seemed to enjoy himself not even realizing we were gone. I don’t trust just anyone with Tyler but he really took a liking to Katy and I knew he would be in wonderful hands. I would adopt Katy if I could!!!! She is sweet, kind, considerate, knowledgeable and most of all she loves animals! Thank you Katy! Liz, Jeff and Tyler

Kara was great. She house sat with our dog and three cats, which we had never done before - we usually bring the dog somewhere else. We were worried but it was clear early on that the animals were immediately at ease with her and in good hands. She was responsive and kind, and sent some cute photos! Thanks Kara!
