“Amazing person, very accomodating, friendly, communicative, and trustworthy boarder! Price was very great and he also was understanding when something had happened to our flight back and was helpful! Definitely would choose again if I ever needed a daycare for our boy!”
“We really appreciated Lisa (and her family’s) care for our dog Kunga! She was flexible with pick-up and drop-off times and sent updates. Kunga loved her time there. Would totally leave Kunga with Lisa again.”
“Sunghee was amazing! She took care of Bagel for 4 nights while we went out of town. We were a little nervous, because Bagel had just traveled with us a few days before and he gets separation anxiety away from me (normal small dog things and then some), but it seemed Bagel got comfortable with Sunghee by day 2! Sunghee sent a lot of photos over the four days”
“We booked Hilary last minute because our usual sitter became unavailable. We had a trip to Italy planned, and I was so stressed to leave Pebbles somewhere new while being out of the country, but HILARY WAS AMAZING!! We fell in love with the way she cared for Pebbles instantly. She had no problem with her feeding times, walks, crate needs, and even eye medication. She sent us SO MANY fun and cute pictures of Pebbles while we were out of the country that I felt super reassured. She was flexible with the pick up time (we know how LAX can be), and even willing to take an additional emergency contact while we were out of country. Honestly, we couldn’t have asked for anyone kinder, more loving, or more communicative. I will definitely request her again, and I am so glad Pebbles found a temporary home there. Thank you for everything!”
“Victoria is such an amazing sitter! She sent so many adorable videos and photos of Oz and her dog (Bella) having the best time together. It was truly a relief to know my pup was in such great hands with her and her husband. Thank you so much!! :)”
“Veronika was amazing! This was my first time ever boarding my pup so I was very hesitant to leave him with someone new. Veronika set up a meet before we confirmed to make sure she was a good fit and to get Rocco comfortable. It really helped to ease the process. Once he was with her, she was great with giving me daily updates and even taught him a new trick. Rocco seemed to have a good time at his home away from home! I would book with her again in a heartbeat!!”
“Cathy and Andres are amazing! Much appreciation for the boarding and care for Winnie while I was away on vacation, grateful they were able to accommodate a lengthy stay. If you're looking for a dog sitter: they were helpful, communicated frequently, and shared plenty of adorable photos snuggling and playing with their dog Charlie! I would certainly use their services again and highly recommend. Thanks again!”
“This was my 1st experience boarding my dog. Kathryn took wonderful care of my dog Mia. She sent me pictures and messages almost daily. I would give her 10 stars if I could. I will use her services in the future. Thank again Kathryn!!”
“Janelle and her partner go above and beyond to make your pets feel happy and at home with them! My two pups had a fun and cozy time at their place. When I forgot to bring my senior dog’s bed with him, they ran out and bought him a new bed! We are beyond grateful for these two, they will care for your pets like they’re their own!”
“Stephanie took absolutely excellent care of my dog. I received daily updates and photos and was assured that he would receive his medication as required while I was away for the holidays. I will definitely be using her again!”
“Felicia was so wonderful to work with and took such good care of our sweet pup while we were away on a trip! Our dog is quite sensitive and she can be shy at first, but Felicia was very understanding, and soon enough our girl felt right at home at Felicia's house. She sent us lots of updates and photos, which reassured us that our baby was in great hands and enjoying her stay. Such a nice feeling! I would recommend Felicia without hesitation.”
About: I have taken care of pets for the last 20 years. I have been a house dog sitter for two German shepherds. I have also taken care of a tiny dogs while’s I’ve done babysitting and house sitting while owners are away on trips. I ha a 13 year old Pommix (my first baby). He has 2 kitten sisters (5yrs and 3 months). I recently retired from teaching elementary school for 30 years and would love to spend more time caring for furbabies 🥰. I would enjoy dropping in to play or walk pets and board pets on my home. I am a retired teacher. I spent 30 years in the classroom. I would like to work part-time caring for pets, walking them, as well as pet sitting when their parents are away. I have a fenced in yard so dogs can run and play. I also have a patio being built on my porch for cats who like the outside. My neighborhood is a perfect place to walk dogs as well as stroll cats in their cat stroller.
“Tiffany is very professional and has a high attention to detail. I have a senior dog who has medical issues that require medication and prescription dog food. Tiffany was able to follow all the instructions as well as provide exemplary care. She provided updates daily and pictures which put me at ease. Tiffany is such kind, trustworthy person and clearly loves dogs.”
“Miguel was an absolute life saver! My sitter canceled on me last minute, so I was scrambling frantically to make sure my babies were taken care of. Miguel was so responsive and flexible! He also took amazing care of my kiddos. Took notes on their meal prep. Took care that my weenie dog did not do stairs that were bad for her back. His home is nicely kept and there is a nice fenced space for pups to potty. 10 stars if I could!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - South Pasadena
Liridona and her partner were very welcoming to have my 50lb dog Kima. They were more than happy to have her in their home and treated her very well. I can tell by the way my dog was looking for them when we left. They sent great photos during the time. I will definitely book with them again. Thank you
Allisan and her family were wonderful to my old guy Shazam! She is probably the most communicative sitter he’s had with numerous updates, pictures, and videos sent daily, which we really enjoyed! If my old guy can live to see another trip down to SoCal then we’ll definitely use Allisan again!
Miguel was fantastic! He was willing to take a last minute booking, and was very flexible and communicative about changes. My dog had a great week with Miguel and his wife, and I got very cute photo updates throughout the week letting me know how my little guy was doing. Will book again!
Kiyomi was the best! She clearly loves dogs and cares for them as if they are her own. My dog is very dog reactive and can be a handful on walks. Kiyomi was extremely understanding and took amazing care of my dog while I was out of the country. She sends a lot of photos and updates so you always know how your dog is doing. Thank you so so much Kiyomi!
Lily and Raoul took great care of my pup! They were happy to accommodate an early meet up so that my dog could meet them before drop off later in the day. My dog came home calm/relaxed and I could tell he had a good time. Communication was smooth/reliable and I appreciated the feedback and photo updates - I definitely recommend Lily and Raoul!
Lijuan is such a sweet person. She took really great care of our dog, Cooper. She gave us constant updates and pictures which was so reassuring. I could tell that she really cared about cooper and wanted to make sure he felt comfortable and also had fun. I highly recommend choosing her!
Brooke and Ryan are great communicators! We were kept updated on how he was getting acquainted and settling down in their home. They were even open to doing dog training reinforcement! Overall, we felt very comfortable with Brax in their care and will reach out to them the next time that we need a sitter.

Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
