“Kenya did a great job looking after our dog Stevie! She communicated and took photos throughout the day and it seemed like Stevie had a great time.”


“Nick was so amazing. Our dogs were well looked after, our home well taken care of, and we loved his updates. Our dogs can’t wait to have him stay again!”


“This was our second time having Austin watch our pups. We traveled internationally for 10 days and had no worries about our two dogs. His communication is exceptional and left our home clean!”


“Our ten year old hound dog had never been taken care of overnight by anyone other than his family but Devona did a wonderful job! We would definitely recommend her and we would happily use her again. Thanks Devona!”


“Kiri house sat our labrador for three nights! She updated us multiple times a day and followed all instructions. We will definitely be booking her again in the future. Thank you Kiri!”


“I was a initially hesitant about a higher rate sitter, but Susan had the extra background check, had reviews from multiple clients, and took her own time for a meet and greet before we booked so we could get to know her and her passion for caring for others. She took great care of my bulldog while I took a nearby staycation. The peace of mind proved worthwhile. We have already booked her for another longer stay and are thankful Rover connected us!”


“Alinna was great. She sent pics of Daphne multiple times a day and kept me updated on her eating and if she was okay. Alinna played fetch with her and kept her comfy cozy on the couch. Also, she went above and beyond and tidied up my apartment and washed the linens! Would book again!!”


“Colleen is amazing! Not only did she take care of our dogs for two weeks while we were out of the country, she kept our house plants watered, and the house was nice and clean when we got back! We would love to have her take care of our two pups when we travel again! Thank you so much Colleen!”



“Taylor took such great care of our dog! We loved all the pictures she sent us. So grateful we found her and will definitely work with her again!”


“Laura saved the day for us! She wasn’t supposed to come until later in the day, but with the winds from the tropical storm from Hurricane Ian, I didn’t feel comfortable leaving my babies for a few hours alone. And Laura totally responded and showed up hours before, so that I could leave for my trip with ease on my mind. The babies had a great time and were loved, held and cuddled plenty. Thank you, so much Laura!!!”

“Danny is again a rockstar. This is our 2nd time enlisting his care services for our baby boy, and everything went smoothly. Our 8-year-old “pup” really likes him!!!”

I'm extremely attentive and thoughtful with my own and will be for yours, too. Ridiculously reliable, count on me! Cat, dog, chicken, fish, ferret, bird, snake and a little bit of horse experience.

My spouse and fellow fur parent is working from home full-time which allows me even more flexibility to serve you and your babes. After first meeting with you and your pets, I will always follow all of your instructions on their care inside and outside of your home. There may be opportunity to care for your pets in my home with our menagerie if it all fits. Almost two acres with fenced back yard.

“Ali is great! She is a friendly, conscientious animal lover, who my pup immediately took to. She sent pictures and updates regularly, which was really appreciated since I’m a crazy dog mom :). I will definitely use her again!”

“Danielle was available to help us out last minute when our Sitter cancelled. She was fabulous. Very professional from the initial booking interaction to the excellent care provided for our pups. Nate and Oki loved their day with her and we could not have been happier with Dani’s Service. Thanks!!!… you helped to really make our day a fantastic one.”


About: I grew up in a house with both cats and dogs where everyone got along great! Once I moved out of the house I adopted my first rescue dog and have had dogs as pets ever since. Currently fostering dogs for Orange County Animal Services and have helped them get several dogs adopted into forever homes. I have regularly helped friends with dogsitting and housesitting while they are away from home, and have taken care of dogs of all sizes and ages. Currently working part time, from home, so my schedule is very flexible on both weekdays and weekends. Mornings or afternoons I'm available for pet play dates or walking. Trusting our pets with someone else is a big step, so I take their safety and security very seriously. When walking a dog I'm always cautious about traffic, strangers, or other pets that have been let off leash. Building trust with your pet is the best way to keep them safe so they can see you again soon!

Kris P.
“My daughter, Kristin, has had a love for animals since she was a little girl. She is now momma to 5 dogs and 2 cats and they are her fur babies. All are rescues. Several weeks ago 13 year old Tucker, a Cheweenie, required surgery. After Tucker was back home, she sent me a photo with Tucker cradled in her arms. It is so Kris. Despite work, she devotes many weekends as a volunteer for “Wednesdayscommunitycats”. In addition she personally helps feed the feral Courthouse cats and is available for pet sitting when needed. God has given her a huge heart for animals and I am delighted to recommend her for Rover. Kathy Fox”
