“Its never easy having to leave a pet home for a trip you can't take the pet on. We recently had to do this to travel across the country and looked for help with taking care of our cat at home, where she is most comfortable. Bianca was absolutely wonderful about taking care of our cat, letting her get acquainted at her own pace. Within a couple of days, our cat was snuggling to Bianca like she'd known her for years ! Bianca stayed over at our place to take care of Nutella and she took great care of the home, ensuring the trash was taken out before she left. She left the place very clean and our cat was a happy camper for the duration. I would definitely request Bianca's help again, should the occasion arise.”
About: I have been a sitter for years. It’s just something I love to do because I love animals :) Once I got a fur family of my own (Dog & Cat) I thought it would be fun to be a sitter and do something I love. I always go the extra mile and create content, if the client approves. I work as a music producer and have tons of time for my animal friends! They make my days better 🖤 I love meeting new people and caring for their animal family. It’s just something that brightens my days. I’m very caring and attentive. Always watching out for them to make sure they’re safe and happy. Knowing they’re properly cared for is my top priority.
“She responded to me even though it was late and super last minute when I had booked her and she was attentive and let me know my baby was okay and with pictures! Super grateful for her☺️”
About: I've had cats and dogs in my home since I was a child. Since 2020 I have been traveling the country--and beyond--as a full-time, nomadic pet sitter. I have taken care of dogs in Malibu, California; horses and pigs in Ocala, Florida; Ragdoll cats in South Queensferry, Scotland; goats in Oakland, California; and giant bunnies in Oceanside, Washington. I've given medicine to old animals, including insulin injections for dogs and cats. I'm basically the Mrs. Doubtfire of pet care. I travel sometimes with my companion, Cheri Isabella, so sometimes there will be two of us taking care of your animals. I am a full-time pet-sitter. I spend most of my time working as an online writer and illustrator, so I will be around to give your pets as much attention as they need. I do not have a home so I am not able to board pets. I can only take care of pets in their own home.
“Katrina has been so wonderful to us. Ben loves having her company & we love the peace of mind of having her home with him when we're away. As usual, she's very reliable, friendly, easy to communicate with, and we'll continue to use her services.”
About: extremely observant and organized. I like to keep everything on track from medications to potty breaks. I’ve had experience over 4 years taking care of animals of family members making sure they are well fed, exercise met to their standard, and loved. Im currently working night shifts which means I have pretty much all day to stay with your pups I am able to stay on top of things and have everything scheduled for your pet. What is most important for me is keeping their routine and keeping YOUR home intact and secured. I will respect your home and boundaries you might have for me.
“Holly was an amazing dog sitter. She constantly kept me updated on the status of my puppies as I enjoyed the day with my family in Disneyland. My puppies are only four months old, too young to be with other dogs and be outside. Holly watched them in our hotel suite because of that. I live in Northern California and it was nice to have someone who cared for my puppies like I would. I highly recommend hiring Holly and I will definitely retain her services in the future.”
“If you are looking for the absolute best pet sitters and house sitters, look no further than Chelsea and Rich! We trust them implicitly with our four furry friends (two dogs and two cats) and our home whenever we leave town. Their genuine care and attention to detail provide us with unparalleled peace of mind. Knowing that our pets and home are in such capable and loving hands allows us to fully relax and enjoy our time away. Chelsea and Rich always send great pictures and updates, which keep us connected to our pets and reassure us that they are happy and well-cared for. We always return to a spotless house, and the delicious treats they leave in the fridge are such a thoughtful touch. We cannot say enough good things about Chelsea and Rich—they have become an invaluable part of our lives, and we are incredibly grateful for their exceptional service. Thank you, Chelsea and Rich, for always going above and beyond!”
“Itzeel was great! She gave us updates and photos daily of both of our babies! She left our home in great condition and would definitely ask her back the next time we are out of town. Thanks Itzeel!”
About: I worked at an animal hospital as a vet tech, so I have the skills to help administer medications/injections, fluids, if need be. I have cared for dogs in the past and now two guinea pigs in my own home (who also, fun fact, I've trained to do tricks!). I've also cared for my horse at the stables who I had exercised, groomed and took on trails. I have a lot of patience with getting to know the animals I encounter and allow them ample time to be comfortable with me. With enough time spent with an animal, most of the time, I can pick up their personality, character, and habits. I currently work full time at the animal hospital most days and can arrange to care for your pets whenever I have the time to spare. I have done my share of research and learning in dog training through positive reinforcement, safety, and handling. I make sure my pets are comfortable and feel safe in their surrounding environment. I hold importance in the pet's and my own's safety during our interactions.
“Keane took great care of my pups and was very communicative in the process. He sent photos of happy pups, kept me update on their meals and I’d use his services again in a heartbeat!”
“Jade took great care of our senior GSD for 6 days. She communicated with us about Buzo's feeding schedule and made sure that he's fed on time. I'd highly recommend her for your pet sitting needs. :)”
“Michelle is an amazing sitter! She sent us lots of photos and videos of our pups while we were away which helped us know they were having a great time with her. She’s very attentive to our dogs, was communicative with us, and took great care of our home. We will definitely use her again!”
“Esther was fantastic with our cats! We were away for two weeks and left her in charge of our four cats, each with very specific care instructions. She was incredibly attentive to all our needs and followed every note closely. Her communication was clear, consistent, and reassuring throughout our trip. All of our cats were happy, comfortable, and well-cared for in her hands. My husband and I were truly able to enjoy our vacation with peace of mind knowing our pets were safe and content. We highly recommend Esther to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter.”
“Juan was incredible with my dog, Nova. I was 3,000 miles away and he gave me the peace of mind I needed to enjoy myself on my trip. He was absolutely outstanding with being on time, giving updates often, and letting me know my dog was in good hands. Juan is my go to dog walker for any time I need someone to look after Nova.”
“Dahlia is hands down the best pet sitter we've ever had. She house sat for our two dogs for a week and spoiled them rotten with walks, attention, and cuddles. She kept us updated with lots of photos and videos, and judging by the pictures, our dogs barely noticed we were gone! She went above and beyond by helping with a few household tasks we forgot about before our trip, and we came home to a spotless house and two very happy dogs. Our younger dog, Lucy, can be a handful at times, but Dahlia handled everything with patience and care. We wouldn't hesitate to book her again. She is officially our go-to sitter.”
“Kat did an amazing job. Upon meeting her, we immediately felt at ease. She looked after our two cats who typically have a hard time warming up to strangers. After the first night, they both felt comfortable enough to spend time with her. When we came back from our trip, the house was tidy and our cats were calm. We will definitely use her again.”
About: While I’m new to Rover, I’ve been caring for pets and homes for over 15 years. I have experience with dogs, cats, senior pets, medication administration, and multi-pet households. I’m excited to bring that experience to Rover and build lasting relationships with local pet families. (: FUN FACT: I have the same birthday as Caesar Milan, so I’m kinda like a dog whisperer 🤪 I’m a housewife with no pets or children of my own. I do theater every now and then but overall my schedule is wide open and ready to share the love and care necessary for your furry companion. I’m not sure why Rover says I don’t allow animals on the furniture. I don’t mind unless it’s a rule within your home to keep them down (: I will honor all of your wishes with caring for your loved one and treat them as if they were my own. I have a fenced backyard and safe neighborhood for walks. Your furry friends will be protected and their comfort is always going to be top priority whether in your home or mine. (:
“From the first impression, it was obvious to us how much Annie loves pets and her job. The detailed questions she asked about things that even we haven’t thought about, or the detailed notes she took during our meet and greet assured us our pets will be in good hands. Her professionalism was once again proven to us when she notified us immediately of an issue our dog developed. We’ve already booked her services for our future needs and can’t recommend her enough.”

Nisa was my life saver! After another walker had ghosted me before a big trip she pulled through on such short notice. She was everything my two boys needed and more. This was my first time leaving my boys overnight but she calmed every nerve with her communication and updates. One of my dogs is extremely reactive with fear based aggression, this was nothing Nisa couldn’t handle! He warmed right up to her and didn’t want to see her go once I returned! As if she wasn’t gift from god before, she was set to leave to work the last day of her visit but after one of my boys unexpectedly threw up she dropped everything to stay with them until I got there several hours later. I cannot thank her enough, it was clear that she really cared for my boys and that’s a gift thats priceless. Please consider booking with Nisa, it’ll be the best decision you can make for your fur babies!
This was our first experience with Rover and a pett sitter. Not only would I highlighly recommend them both if you like us do not leave your dogs at home but find yourself having to figure out what to do on vacation. Sofia was amazing, after our initial meeting and she arrived on time sent us pictures during the day. If we are ever in the Anaheim area again and need a pet sitter she will be the person I will call.
2nd time we personally choose Vanessa to be out pet sitter/house sitter,our 3 furs was really taken care off by Vanessa,for 9 days they are all in good health and they like vanessa,great care to our furs. We never looked for anyone,Vanessa has all the qualities we need,she left our fur’s clean and the house as well,Vanessa is the person we need for this job,we tipped her it’s because she really deserves it, She knows also to give medication to our pets. Great great job,thank you vanessa,till our next vacation,will see you again.
Dawn hit it off with our moderately shy kitties almost immediately and it was no surprise when they quickly adopted her as their new cuddle-buddy. Dawn also took great care of our cockatiel and koi fish, and sent lots of updates with photos during her stay. We are so glad to have found her!
Cassaundra was absolutely wonderful. She kept me updated with photos while we were gone and made sure our animals were loved and cared for. She also went the extra mile and cleaned our house which looked even better than when we left it! Will definitely book her again to house sit when we’re out of town.
Erika was great with our three dogs in Huntington Beach. They are all personalities and she took the responsibility very well in hand. She was great with communication and seeking to understand our preferences. Most importantly, our dogs seemed to love her and she gave them a lot of care and affection as well; thanks, Erika!
elizabeth is the absolute best!!!! our dogs are literally our babies and she took such amazing care of them (and our home!) while we went away for vacation! i could not recommend her enough! we will be using her for alllll our dog sitting needs in the future! ps she is also the best communicator and sends lots of pics too! she is just the best!
This was our second time using Dillan to watch our two girls! He will always be our go-to pet sitter if he is available. I didn't worry for one minute while we were gone. He stayed at our home for almost 5 days and everything was perfect. Thank you Dillan! See you next time 😸
