About: I am a lifelong pet owner and pet lover who has used Rover for years. I know how important it is to find reliable, trustworthy care. I have raised rescue dogs and cats and have cared for other’s pets as if they were my own. I work part time from home and have the flexibility to drop in and make sure your fur baby is well cared for. I will give you the same care I wish for myself— updates and photos and conscientious care so you can have priceless peace of mind. I am fortunate enough to work part time from home. I have a flexible schedule and can adjust to your pet’s needs. Pet care fits in easily with my schedule. A meet and greet is essential to set us up for success. Keeping your pets safe and secure is priority one. Following your feeding, potty break and or litter box routine is the next most important step. I will treat your pet with loving kindness and send you updates. During a drop in visit— I am a guest in you—and your pets home. I will become thier favorite “auntie” and enjoy making sure they are well cared for while you are away. I can grab mail and water plants if needed as well.
About: Hi everyone I’m new to Rover but I would love to give your dog the best day ever! I’ve been lucky enough to have dogs my entire life as my background. Now I have two mini dachshunds of my own that are the sweetest and goofy boys. I took time off work when I got chili (first pup) to ensure he was trained from day one and well taken care of. Went back to work for another year and now have decided to quit my corporate job because I wasn’t fulfilled to now pursue this career full time. Since I’m new I have cheap prices to build myself up but my goal is to start my own doggy day care full time. If you can help me with my dream that would be so appreciated! Please reach out if you have any questions, I will be happy to connect. :) I have a dog of my own so taking care of him everyday and any minute I’m home. I have a hybrid job so depending on the day but he is walked before I leave and as soon as I get back. I always make sure he is fed, walked, played with, and he gets tons of cuddles more than he probably wants. I will care for them in every way that the owner says or the pets needs. I’m structured, understanding, and flexible. If you leave me a list of to do or specific requirements I will make sure they get done and on time. I’m healthy young adult who has no problem playing or taking a dog on a long walk.
“Jessica did an awesome job! She went above and beyond for me. My cats are very messy eaters and she did a great job cleaning the bowls, wiping down the countertops, and cleaning the litter box. She also lit my candles so the house smelled nice when I came home. She gave great updates and took awesome pictures of my babies. I would definitely recommend her services.”
“Wolfie is a rescue and he is super nervous around humans, but learning. Jen is the first person besides us to walk Wolfie. She definitely helped Wolfie make progress. Wolfie went from barking at her upon meeting her to adoring her at the end of the walk. Jen is super chill and great at observing a dog’s behavior and adjusting to his/her needs. Overall a 10/10.”
“Verity was amazing. She was very attentive to my very particular requests for caring for my cat Jeff while I was gone. She took lots of photos of everything she did during her visit and gave me the most thorough status report of any pet sitter I’ve ever had. She is truly the best and it’s very obvious that she understands and respects how stressful it is to be away from your pet. She even got my boy to snuggle with her. Incredible. He knew he was in good hands. Thank you so much Verity”
“Sarah is incredible! She takes such wonderful and thoughtful care of our pup Henry and he absolutely loves her. She’s kind, communicative and always on top of things. We know Henry is in good hands when he’s with her. Plus she sends pictures when they’re together and it’s clear he’s having a blast!”
About: I’ve had cats my whole life and have had a dog since I was 10, so caring for pets has always been a big part of my life. I’m comfortable with dogs and cats of different personalities and understand that every pet has their own routine, needs, and quirks. I’ve always been responsible for feeding, walks, playtime, keeping their space clean, and giving them plenty of attention and affection. I’m patient, dependable, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I’ll treat your pet like they’re my own and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I have a flexible schedule and can make time for your pets throughout the week. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and house sitting, and I’m happy to work with your pet’s routine and needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I’ll follow their normal routine, keep a close eye on them, and make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, food, and care while you’re away.
About: I have experience with many types of animals in the past few years. From large dogs such as huskies, golden retrievers to bulldogs. To smaller dogs such as Shih Tzu, Frenchies and even new born puppies! I also have experience with bird care and rodents. A love for animals means to give them the best quality care. I am currently working part time with mid day-closing shifts. I tend to have 2-3 days off a weeks, which allows me to be able to have dedicated time to take care of people’s furry babies. I am very aware of my surroundings so when it comes to client homes. I’ll keep a good eye on not just the pet, but the care for the home. Any loose toys, objects or cables will be protected and remain out of sight of the pet for their safety. I’ll take care and make sure your pet has the fun they need, while maintaining a tidy home.
About: What started at 13 as an after-school dog walking business—armed with a stack of flyers and a lot of enthusiasm—grew over seven years into a full schedule of beloved, repeat clients until I moved away for college. Today, I’m still doing what I love: providing attentive, reliable pet and house-sitting for friends, neighbors, and new furry clients. Whether it’s keeping up with a high-energy puppy, accommodating a sweet senior dog at their own pace, or earning the trust of a delightfully grumpy cat (my specialty!), I treat every pet with the patience, safety, and care they deserve. I have a flexible routine and will work with your needs to ensure your fur babies receive appropriate and timely walks, feedings, playtime, and one-on-one care. Pets thrive on consistency, so I prioritize sticking closely to their normal routine—from exact feeding schedules and walks to meds and training cues. I stay mindful of safety details like secure gates and closed doors, keep your home tidy, and send regular photo updates so you can enjoy peace of mind while away.
About: I've loved animals all of my life, and I am ready to make myself available to help your fur baby and your home be perfectly cared for! I've done mostly drop-ins and walking but I'm comfortable with an overnight stay as well. I love being around animals, and would love to take care of yours! I am currently walking 2 dogs 3 times a week in the evenings, working part time, and I'm in school as well but I am more than willing to help! I’m currently relying on work here while I’m in between jobs! I’ve recently finished up my school work for a degree as well, so I have a lot of free time to dedicate to you and your pets. I have 3 cats at home so I would not be able to board other animals, however, I would be more than happy to stop by to check on your beloved pets at your own home and spend some time with them whether it be with walks or playing!
About: I’ve worked in veterinary medicine for 11 years, and previously worked in doggie daycare and boarding for about 5–6 years. Because of that experience, I’m very comfortable handling dogs and cats with different personalities, energy levels, and needs. I’m also familiar with recognizing signs of stress or illness, and making sure pets stay safe and comfortable while their owners are away. What really sets me apart is that I treat every pet like they’re my own — making sure they get plenty of attention, patience, and care. Whether that means long walks, playtime, or just keeping them company and giving lots of pets, I always try to make sure they feel happy and secure! I work full time at a veterinary hospital & My current schedule is Wednesday -Saturday 6:30a-5p. I’m available Full time Sundays-Tuesdays, and available after my shifts Wed-Sat after 5pm. When caring for pets in a client’s home, safety and comfort are my top priorities. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special care instructions. I make sure doors, gates, and leashes are secure during walks or potty breaks, and I monitor pets for any signs of stress or health concerns. I respect the client’s home while keeping it clean and safe, and I provide regular updates and photos so owners know their pets are happy and well cared for. My goal is to make both pets and owners feel completely at ease while I’m there!
“Michelle is the best cat sitter we have ever had! 5 star service, she is the best. She always takes lots of pictures of our babies when we are away which we absolutely love seeing every visit. Thank you again”
“Soleil was AMAZING, and I genuinely cannot recommend her enough! She took such wonderful care of Lemon while I was away at a conference, and I never had to worry for a second. She was reliable, communicative, incredibly sweet with Lemon, and just made the whole experience so easy. She also went so far above and beyond what I asked her to do. I came home and realized she had cleaned my cat’s litter box AND taken out the trash—neither of which was remotely part of our arrangement! It was such a thoughtful surprise after a long trip, and honestly just says so much about the kind of person she is. I came home to happy pets and a home that had clearly been really cared for, which is about the best feeling you can have after traveling. Soleil is kind, thoughtful, dependable, and an absolute gem. I would hire her again in a heartbeat and would recommend her to basically anyone who will listen. Lemon and I are officially huge Soleil fans!”
“Mary is fantastic! 2nd time caring for our cat! Reliable, takes pics and leaves a detailed report … I’m so excited to have found her. My cat is picky, so it’s great to have someone you trust!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Seal Beach
Could not have asked for a better experience for my fur babies 💕 Haley was able to quickly win over both my senior dog and my 10 month old puppy who is typically very scared of strangers. She shared pictures of them cuddling during their visits together! I was able to travel worry-free knowing the girls were in good hands.
Amber was so helpful and thorough while I was away. I have a sickly boy and she made sure to ask all the right questions to support him. She was able to administer all of the medications for him. I'm very thankful for her expertise as a vet tech and her updates and notes she left me. She gave my cats love and I will definitely be using her again. <3
Verity was amazing. She was very attentive to my very particular requests for caring for my cat Jeff while I was gone. She took lots of photos of everything she did during her visit and gave me the most thorough status report of any pet sitter I’ve ever had. She is truly the best and it’s very obvious that she understands and respects how stressful it is to be away from your pet. She even got my boy to snuggle with her. Incredible. He knew he was in good hands. Thank you so much Verity
Jasmine is such a great cat sitter and an amazing and responsible human! She sends great updates and I never have to worry that my two kitties are well cared for! She provides love, and affection and conscientious care every time! Thank you, Jasmine for treating my kitties like family and providing priceless peace of mind whenever I travel. 💕🙏🏼
Mary Beth took excellent care of my senior cat. She was patient with him and ultimately he was able to trust her. She came twice per day and followed the pet care instructions. My cat was well taken care of and he looked good. I would definitely recommend Mary Beth!
We had a wonderful experience with Zeni! She was punctual, friendly, and communicated with us throughout her time dropping in for our two cats. It was clear right away that she loves animals, and we could tell our cats loved her too from the pictures she took every visit. We would happily use Zeni’s services again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable pet sitter. Thank you again!!
Misha went above and beyond while caring for our cat Dante! She sent great pics and we could tell she really cares about animals. She was also flexible with us while we vacationed in a national park with limited service and she made sure Dante was taken care of. Highly recommend her for pet sitting and we'll definitely use her again!
We weren’t sure about getting a dog sitter because our dog has never been alone with a stranger before and she can get antsy when she’s alone (high energy German shepherd/Basset Hound mix). However, her and Annie became best friends by the time we got back. We ended up booking her for the next night too and would’ve had her watch our dog for the whole stay if we could! Additionally, Annie made sure to go above and beyond, helping us modify the price because this app can be confusing with that. Whenever we come back we’re sure to book her again!

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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
