“Della and her daughters are AMAZING!!! This was my first time using Rover and I couldn't be happier or more impressed. She was very professional, kind, and my dogs loved her. I will definitely be a repeat client!”


“Having Ayisha at our place was just amazing. She was super nice with our dog. She kept us updated throughout the entire stay and even went out of her to help us solve a small issue at home. We are so grateful for her care and kindness. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy to take care of their pets. We ll definitely be calling her again!”

“Yvette did a great job. We have an aggressive dog so our situation isn’t the easiest for most sitters but she kept everyone safe and our home clean. We would highly recommend her.”
“"I'm not sure I ever want to use another house sitter ever again" - my girlfriend a few moments before we went to bed on the freshly washed sheets in our spotless apartment Couldn't agree more. Raymell and Serenity were simply amazing. This was our first time using any app to have a pup watched, and for house sitting in general, and I am so glad we found Ray and Serenity. They were in constant communication with us our entire 5 day trip. We received updates for Ushi (our 12 week boston puppy), great pictures, and came back to our apartment cleaner than we left it (and I thought it was pretty damn clean!). All instructions we left for them were followed, and they promptly asked questions the moment they were unsure about anything. If I could leave more stars I would. We got stuck in San Diego a little longer than expected due to the tropical storm and Ray and Serenity were EXTREMELY accommodating and empathetic to our situation. THANK YOU BOTH!”


“Marisol made a real effort to understand our pets and our home ahead of our house sitting agreement. She communicated consistently and we'll during our trip and left the house very tidy. I have nothing but praise for her work. We would definitely recommend her to others!”

“Gracie is a literal angel! She stayed at my house for 11 days taking care of my dog and 2 cats, and she somehow left my house better than when I left! My pets aren’t the easiest to take care of so I left a lot of specific instructions and she was able to maintain their care seamlessly. Couldn’t recommend her enough and I would definitely ask her to pet sit again.”

“Our dogs can be a little picky about who they like, but they liked Anna right away when they met her. She was pleasant and flexible about stopping by prior to our booking. We will definitely ask her to watch Fred and Simsi again.”

About: I have grown up with many different dogs from chihuahua & yorkies to pit bulls & German Shepards. Therefore, I am comfortable, love & welcome all sizes! We also had 2 cats so I love them too! I currently work Monday-Friday 7am-5pm so I am available any time before or after to fit some dog walks or drops ins, in my schedule! Weekends are wide open-especially for boarding! I live in an apartment with no kids or other animals. I would treat your dog or cat as my own ❤️ if the big dog needs some walking time on trails that’s where we’ll be, if the small dogs want to stay at home and rest, we’ll watch tv on the couch together & vice versa for cats!

“Wow!!! I can honestly say I never thought I could feel so comfortable with a “stranger” in my house and taking care of my dogs. Jen clearly is a professional who knows what she’s doing and LOVES the doggies. From our first meet and greet where she did all the right things introducing our pups and helping me feel comfortable, to coming home to a freshly swept, mopped house where she washed her own sheets, cleaned out our kitty litter, and brushed our dogs multiple times...it was a DREAM! I used to sit myself and I didn’t think I’d ever find someone as attuned to detail as I am. I got multiple video and picture updates daily and she stuck to her word on how long the dogs would be alone, making sure they were always fed and played with while she was home. She is honestly worth every penny and then some. And to top it all off, I feel as though I’ve made a new friend :) BEST DOG/HOUSE SITTER EVER!!!”
“Casey is a 10 Plus. You can’t go wrong here. He goes above and beyond. Walked my dogs even my older dog and I am sure she loved it. He would keep in touch with me send pictures and updates ❤️. My house was spotless when I arrived which was soooooo nice . I am so HAPPY I found him. You can’t go wrong using Casey HIGHLY RECOMMEND HIM”

“Destiny and Josh are absolutely amazing. We have 3 dogs and a cat and they take such great care of all of them! Josh and Destiny are always sending us updates with photos and I know I don’t have to worry about our fur babies.”

“Kaylyn was awesome! She was super sweet and sent so many awesome update pictures of our cat. She left our house clean and was responsive and flexible. When our travel plans changed she saved our butt and was able to watch our cat really short notice. We will 100% use her again!”

Look no further! You have found your sitter! Natalie is extremely poised, communicative, loving with our pets. We have only left our tiny toy poodles once before, so we are as neurotic as they come. At our “meet and greet”, our most shy one let Natalie hold her as we walked around the house and outside. Natalie is what we would call a dog-whisperer. Her personality is so calm, our babies trusted her immediately.

Kylie communicated effectively about her arrivals and departures. The pictures she sent were clear and super cute. My cat threw up (classic cat behavior) and she was professional by letting me know immediately to assess if it was a medical concern or not. I’d definitely hire her again.

Lyndsey is the best nanny for my dogs! She stays in my home over night with them and treats them like they are her own! My dogs love her so much and we’re so thankful to have her! I have rebooked numerous times and will continue as long as I can with her! Highly recommend!!!

What we love most about Jen is her love for animals! She offered a meet and greet before we left town, which really put my mind at ease! She sent pics and videos of the dogs while we were away, she even brought a toy for each of our 3 dogs!!! We hope to book Jen each time we leave town! I trust her in our home, she just took care of everything
