“Sharon has brought so much peace of mind when we travel. I am so grateful to have her care for our animals. In addition to our cat, Sharon takes care of our ducks - I highly recommend her if you also have livestock pets.”


“Chazney did a great job taking care of my two kitties, one that needs meds every 12 hours. She was punctual, communicative, and took lots of great pictures so I felt comfortable knowing the kitties were in great hands. She also was attentive to the house while she was there with the kitties. Above and beyond care! I will definitely reach out again when a need arises.”



“Kelly is helping our puppy's transition into our house by coming in while we are at work to let her out during lunch time. I receive a photo each time he's in and she has yet to have an accident thanks to his drop ins during the day. When we met Kelly he was extremely professional and knowledgeable and I look forward to retaining his services. Thanks Kelly for helping us with Miss Annie!”


About: Hi, I’m LaLa! I believe every pet deserves Dog-Mom level care—the kind where they’re treated like family, not just a client. With years of experience caring for pups of all ages, sizes, and personalities, I pride myself on creating a calm, loving, and safe environment where your dog can truly relax. I’m extremely patient and gentle, whether I’m bonding with an anxious rescue, entertaining an energetic puppy, or tending to the needs of a sweet senior. I pay close attention to every detail, from their feeding schedule to their favorite belly rub spot, and I’m skilled at reading body language to ensure your pet feels comfortable and secure. You can count on me to be reliable, communicative, and respectful of your home. I provide regular updates, cute photos, and even fun paw report cards so you always know how your fur-baby is doing. Life can be unpredictable, and I do my best to be flexible and understanding when schedules shift. Most of all, I love building connections with each pet I care for—because to me, they’re not “just pets,” they’re family. 🐾 Im available Thursday to Sunday. On Thursday and Friday only I’m available after 5:30pm (due to me having a full time job from home). Saturday and Sunday I’m available all day 🙂 For any Drop-In visits or Walks I do require a complementary meet and greet before booking to ensure your pet is comfortable with me and their “home space” ❤️ Your pet’s comfort and safety always come first in your home. I take time to learn your pet’s routine, preferences, and any special needs before each visit. I follow feeding, walking, and medication instructions exactly as given, and always make sure your pet has fresh water and a clean, calm environment. I respect your space—leaving your home just as I found it—and keep doors locked, alarms set, and your pet safely indoors or secured outside as requested. I’m gentle, patient, and attentive to body language, especially with shy or anxious pets. You’ll receive regular updates and photos for peace of mind while you’re away.

“Kendric was the perfect dog walker for us! She was very communicative, loved on our two pups and messaged me if there were any questions or issues! We will be using her again in the future! Thank you so much again!”


“Essence was wonderful to my golden girl! She provided me with information about her visit and was patient with honey when she had an accident after getting excited. Definitely will book for future needs!”


“Lindsay was exactly what I needed for my last minute travel! I had never used a service like this before and just moved to a new area so I wasn't sure how it would go. Lindsay met me and the fur babies before the trip and got a lay of the house and I was instantly comfortable with her! She was on time for every visit, she loved my pups as her own and she kept me in the loop at each visit! I never felt that I needed to worry about my babies while away and it allowed me to thoroughly relax! Thank you so much!”


“Karen. Is. Amazing. She consistently went above and beyond for me and my senior boy. When I was leaving in the early morning for my flight, I made the horrible realization that I had forgotten to plan for being out of the country and not having cell service (I had planned to let her into the building by phone call). I called in a panic and she came by early that morning before I left the country and picked up the fob, then sent me pictures of my boy. She sent lots of pictures of my senior boy (who does not let most people pet him) letting her hold and live on him. Karen is a complete angel!”


“I am the definition of a crazy dog parent. My dogs’ healthy and safety are top priority with happiness and love right behind. I have 3 young, high energy, demanding pups and I know they will always get the best care with Briana. I get detailed updates and amazing pictures that really show how much my pack love her. She also goes above and beyond with things around my home - not just painful tasks like replacing the dog pool water but even taking out the trash! Briana has redefined above and beyond dog care!”


“Alejandra was super flexible & amazing to work with. I appreciated all the cute pics of my baby and I feel she was in trusted and responsible hands. She took care to call me and go over the best places near my home to walk and just seemed very professional.”


About: I’ve been assisting with pet care for various friends/neighbors for the past decade and truly have not met an animal I didn’t love! I am available for pet walks, check-ins and occasional housing. My service industry job allows me to provide mid week availability for all pet needs, my weekends are Tuesday-Thursday where I’m always seeking out things to do! I have a fenced in home with a deck and welcome pets into my home. I’m able to provide undivided attention to them by providing playtime/walks when needed and a comfortable space for relaxing once they are ready for rest.

About: I've been taking care of my pets for years, I've taught them basic commands like sitting down, bending down, I have their schedules and I love playing with them I currently have all the time available to take care of your pets, So I can take them for a walk in the morning schedule, Take care of them while they go out to work, and even take care of them if they go on vacation I respect the routine that the person tells me, they sleep inside the house, go for a walk and play with their all time possible

About: I have cared for many different animals throughout my years. My family members and neighbors would often rely on me to watch their pets when they went out or town. When I was in High School, I was apart of the animal science program. I was trusted to take care of many different animals including bunnies, lizards, ferrets, chickens and more. I often took some of these furry friends home over the summer and winter breaks. I am currently using rover as a full time job until I get our of school. So I will always be free to take care of your furry friends. I have been around dogs of all sizes, shapes and temperaments. If Im taking your dog on a walk a leash will always be used.

About: I’ve always loved animals, and now I get to work with them all the time at the Orange County Animal Shelter. I am president of Animal Welfare Club at my school and had a zen dog puppy preschool in 2nd grade😁. I’ve cared for all kinds of dogs, puppies full of energy, older dogs who need a little extra help, and shy pups who just need patience and love. I’m used to giving meds, helping with basic training, and making sure every dog feels safe and happy. I treat every pet like they’re my own, and I’ll make sure your dog gets all the care, love, and attention they need while you’re away. Right now I’m on summer break from high school, so I have a pretty flexible schedule! I work early mornings and finish by 10 AM, and I have another job only on Saturdays. That means I’m available for pet care on weekends and weekdays, depending on the time. I always make sure I have enough time to give each pet the care and attention they need. In my home, I have a fenced-in yard and one dog of my own, but she can be picky around other dogs. I also live with my family and we foster animals, so I’m not able to care for other dogs in my home right now. However, I’m happy to care for pets in their own home where they’re most comfortable. I always follow your instructions closely and make sure your pet gets lots of attention, playtime, and love while you’re away.

About: Recently been certified to train dogs in basic behavioral problems. Would love to pet sit your fur baby. I have had dogs my whole life and I'm just looking to start my business in a career that I have a passion for. Hope you give me a chance. I work part time, but I always have time to pet sit and walk your dog(s) while i'm not working. My time availability will be limited at first, but I ensure you they are in good paws with me. I have a huge fenced in yard with 3 other dogs who are very friendly around new dogs. Right now I would like to start by walking your dogs first so they get to know me before I pet sit them.

About: I’ve always had dogs and cats. I have 3 dogs and 5 cats. I’m very experienced with both. I use to watch my aunts dogs for her while she was at work. She has 2 dogs and I’d sometimes watch her cats which at the time she had 4. I’m always dealing with cats and dogs. I care for them everyday no matter what. I love animals and I can take care of them. I can feed them, take them for walks, play with them. Do all of the things cats or dogs need. I do these things on a daily basis.

About: Hi! My name is Diane and I love all animals .I have worked in the pet industry full time in the last 10 years in kennels , grooming boarding, daycare and training facilities . I have also been pet sitting over 25 years ,friends and family have entrusted their precious pets in my care because they trusted my abilities and knew that I would treat their pets as I would my own. Spending my days with animals is the ultimate job. Kinda hard to even call it a “job.” Who can resist waggs and purrs, wet kisses and lap naps? Certainly not me. Pet sitting and dog walking is my profession, my livelihood and my business. I look forward to caring for your pets and keeping you updated as to how they are doing in my care. I'm a full time pet sitter so I'm available most days for house sitting , drop in visits and dog walks during the week and on weekdays. I do my best to stick to your pets schedule . I will always communicate any issues beforehand or as soon as they come up . I will always treat the animals and the properties with respect and try to leave the homes looking the way they were when I got there !

About: I’ve grown up always having cats and dogs, and I value their companionship more than anything! Not only have I taken care of my own fur babies, but I’ve had other family members and friends ask for my time to take care of their pets while they were away, which is why I decided to come here and make myself useful to you! I’m currently in school for my undergraduate degree, so taking care of animals is a great full time position for me and helps me better understand different animals’ needs! My parents have two pug/pekingese mix at home that I frequently sit for, and they’re also crate trained. They’re also used to potty breaks every two hours in my parents’ fenced in yard. We also have cats which I take care of and we clean their litter boxes twice a day.

“I believe Brittney would be an asset to rover.com, she took care of both of my dogs while I was on vacation. I knew that they were in loving hands, she fed them on schedule, gave them periodic walks. And the dogs just were in love with her with tails wagging. I highly recommend her to rover.com.”


Brenda M.
“Good day, I have known Brenda Macias for over 10 years, and since childhood, she has shown a deep love and affection for pets. She has had dogs for as long as I've known her, and she has cared for them with great tenderness. One example is a dog named Stewie, who suffered greatly in his search for a home due to abandonment and neglect. Stewie developed a fear of confinement, but with Brenda, he found the love, care, and home he deserved. Stewie is now 10 years old and the best dog she has ever raised. Now that she lives with her husband, Brenda has three dogs whom she has showered with love and care. She has rescued two of them—one from the streets and another from a home where they were mistreated and malnourished. I have heard and confirmed that they are currently in very good hands, from their veterinarian to their nutrition.”

My dogs are my life and I would trust her with them always. She picks them up in her BMW. She is first class and beautiful inside and out with a great heart. She has great taste and lots of experience in taking care of dogs. My dogs are so excited to see her they can’t wait to get in her car. You will feel extremely blessed that you found her.”


Heaven-Leigh D.
“Heaven is my sister, and over the last 20 years of my life, we’ve had a decent amount of pets. Cats, dogs, fish, bunnies, all the typical ones. She’s even owned sugar gliders. Sugar gliders take a ton of quality time and dedication to keep happy and healthy. All of the animals we’ve owned have received plenty of love from her. She’s always taken great care of all of our pets and I think she’d make a great dog caregiver. Also, she’s babysat all of her younger siblings for most of her life so she’s very responsible too.”
