“Friday was so happy with Eric and Takako. They have 2 adorable chihuahuas. They took him on walks and sent me pictures, Friday looked so happy. I’m so grateful we found a great family that I feel comfortable leaving Friday with. Thank you Eric and Takako for making it so easy for and sooooo fun for Friday. He misses you guys.”

“May and Mark save the day again! We needed a last minute sitter for our 10 month old puppy and May and Mark were happy to help. Our dog loves all the walks and playtime he gets with their dog pepper. Plus, we love the pictures they share of their adventures together. They’re the best!”

“Our dog Muchu loved staying with Naru! He got lots of activity and snuggles and attention. We got updates and photos every day. So happy to find someone nearby to love our pup the way we do when we’re not in town!”

“Kimberly is absolutely amazing! She was super communicative and accommodating for a last minute work trip. She sent tons of pictures and Charlie was so happy in all of them! I highly recommend her and will definitely rebook with her anytime I need someone to watch. Charlie when I’m out of town. Thank you Kimberly!”

“Olivia and Sebastien were awesome caregivers for our dog, Koa! I found them last minute, after our usual sitters were unavailable to help with boarding for an out of town trip. They made the time for a quick meet and greet with their dog, Zuko which was appreciated. During our trip, I got photos and videos to reassure me that Koa was doing ok. I would absolutely welcome their help again in the future!”


“Thankful we found Elizabeth! Our original sitter fell through and glad Elizabeth was available to do a meet up 2 days before our booking! She was super flexible and took such great care of Zuko. Highly recommend and will be using her again in the future!”

“Michael is experienced, great with dogs and very dependable. We appreciated the pics he sent and the social environment he provided for our dog! We are thankful to him for the great care he took of our pup while we were away!”

“Linda & Zach are the best! I needed a last-minute booking while traveling in from out of town, and they made super easy. I appreciated their very fast, friendly communication throughout Chunk’s stay. They were very flexible with our schedule, and most importantly took great care of our senior pup, Chunk. They introduced their sweet lab Sophie who was the perfect companion for Chunk, and sent pictures during his stay so we knew he was right at home. Everything was packed and ready to go when we came for pickup. Couldn’t ask for better!”


About: I grew up with several dogs and cats, and I’ve loved taking care of animals since a young age. I have provided loving, caring, responsible pet-sitting support and care-taking duties for family and friends for many years, and I genuinely love dogs and cats of all breeds and ages. I have my own sweet and cuddly 8-year old female yellow lab who is my best buddy, so I truly understand how pets become our beloved family members. My schedule is flexible and I’m usually available on short notice! I look forward to meeting lots of wonderful new furry friends soon. I’m currently working part-time so my schedule is flexible and I’m usually available on short notice! Pet care is a true passion of mine. I have a safe, cozy home for pets and a sweet 8-year old female yellow lab at home who gets along perfectly with other dogs. We live across the street from a beautiful dog park and there are lots of beautiful places to walk and play.
“A huge thanks to Todd and Cindy for taking care of our pup (Marley). We booked a two week sitting 5-6 weeks in advance. Marley decided to eat plastic a week prior and had to have surgery to remove it. They took him in a week later and helped nurse him back to health (diet, meds, etc). Not only that, but in the days leading up to his stay, they made us feel super comfortable keeping our plans and leaving him in their care. We are so glad we found them!”

“Thank you Claire! Our Kobe was spoiled rotten in your care! You are the quintessential dog whisperer! I can’t wait til we visit next time and Kobe to see you and Leo! Thank you for your love and wonderful care.”


“Brooke is our go-to puppy sitter. I always look forward to her photos/videos. It’s like a professional photographer is capturing my pup’s best moments! And my puppy always comes back to us super happy - like she’s stayed with a family member who loves her. You can really tell Brooke loves animals, I fully trust her with my dog!”

“Viktorria took care of Marlo for a week and she was great! I got plenty of video updates and he always looked like he was having a great time. He was in good spirits upon my return and I got a good report back on his behavior! Viktorria was great and I would definitely book again! Thank you so much for taking good care of him!”

“Christy took great care of our elderly dog! She was able to handle giving her several medications twice a day and took her on walks. It seemed like our pup received lots of love and attention. We also got pictures and videos throughout her stay!”

“Lori is very nice and quick to respond to messages, usually including a photo of my sweet boy, Otis, to ease my worried mind and heart while I’m away and missing him so much!!! I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter!”


“Linda took a chance on us as first-time Rover users and fairly new dog owners. And we are so so glad she did!! We were very lucky to have heard about Rover through a friend and knew it'd be a better option than a kennel for us. Since we weren't sure until two days before our trip whether or not we'd be able to bring Chica along with us, Linda was great in offering the flexibility to take her in a little last-minute. Linda invited us over a few days before the trip so that we could all meet. It immediately felt like a good fit. Sammie is literally the sweetest dog in the world and must be a good role model because Chica returned happy, calm, and sweeter than ever!! Linda is very active and very intuitive with dogs- and it was nice to see that in action when we met her and Sammie. Linda texted us updates while we were gone (very much appreciated as new parents!) and Sammie was such a sweetheart she agreed to sleep halfway in Chica's small bed because apparently Chica loved the big bed! I couldn't offer higher recommendations for Linda to care for your pup. We are so, so happy to know that Linda and Sammie can care for Chica when we need it!! Also: when talking to our neighbor after meeting Linda, our neighbor said she hired Linda to walk her two rescues for months while she had a broken foot and she, too, raved about how great Linda is with her dogs. My heart is so warmed by this service knowing that people like Linda are involved. And if your pup happens to like squeaky toys: Linda's house is a pup-heaven!!”

Solana Beach dog parents share their Rover experiences
Christy and her family were fantastic and took great care of our pups. They sent photos and videos every day and were mindful of their quirks and feeding instructions. It’s always anxiety-inducing to leave your dogs with a new sitter, but Christy made us feel at ease with her confidence and care. We would highly recommend her, and we will definitely be bringing our dogs back next time we go on a trip.

We left our Wheaten Terrier, Finn, with Linda for a week, and we couldn't have been happier with the experience. Linda, her husband, and Sammie took wonderful care of Finn and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. Linda kept us updated throughout the week with messages and photos - it was clear that he was treated like part of the family. We can definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, trustworthy, and attentive dog sitter.

Olivia and Noah are absolutely amazing dog sitters! They were incredibly responsive and went above and beyond to ensure that our dog, Maple, felt loved and well cared for while my husband and I were away for four days. We had complete peace of mind knowing she was in such great hands. I highly recommend this wonderful couple for your next dog-sitting needs!

Brooke went above and beyond for our pups over the holidays! We feel so lucky to have found her. We have two senior dogs that typically are sat at our house, but had to find somewhere else for them to stay this year and Brooke made them feel right at home. They loved staying with her. She also sent a ton of photos and videos which we appreciated so much. Could not recommend her more!!

Annika was wonderful! She sent multiple check-ins with photo updates from their park and beach adventures and treated Lottie like one of her own - especially appreciated during the holidays. Lottie came home happy, loved, and completely exhausted. We will definitely use Annika again and highly recommend her!
