About: I have taken care of pets basically my entire life, of course I have had to learn and improve my skills from when I was younger. My family members have many pets which they rely on me to take care of when they are unable to. I am also going to school for a degree in biological sciences in hopes to find a career as a vet tech or anything which will allow me to work closely with animals. :) I am a 4th year biological science major at UC Merced. I hope to pursue a career which will allow me to work with animals closely while also spending time outdoors. I also am very interested in learning about animal husbandry and pet care. I love taking walks in the mornings and evenings, perfect for when dogs need to go potty! My services are mostly in clients’ homes because I have two cats and a small house which will not be big enough for larger animals like dogs. The way I care for pets in clients’ homes will be up to the client themselves as every pet parent has different ground rules and boundaries for their fur babies. I will do the basics like feeding and playing but will refrain from most other things unless requested to avoid stepping over boundaries, especially in other people’s homes.
“Elisabeth was awesome. She dropped in to check on all 4 of my dogs on short notice. She was on time and sent me pictures of each one of my babies. It's comforting knowing they are well taken care of. Will definitely book her again.”
About: I lost my own baby a year ago, but take care of our grand puppies. I have almost 3/4 of an acre for your babies to play on. I am now retired, and have a Lotta time to spend with your babies, playing inside and outside and going for walks or just cuddling! I have a very large fenced in yard. I also have a separate dog run if you need to keep your dog separate. We also have two grandchildren that live with us that love dogs.
About: Dogs aren’t just a job for me — they’re genuinely my passion. I spent 7 years as a dog hotel manager, caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities every single day. I’ve worked with energetic puppies, sweet senior dogs, and dogs with disabilities who need extra patience and specialized care. I’m comfortable administering medications, following detailed feeding routines, and making sure each dog feels safe, understood, and loved. I take pride in reading body language, keeping dogs on a consistent routine, and giving them the right balance of structure, play, and affection. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness will always be my top priority, and I’ll treat them like family. Plus, every dog gets a free bath after every stay! I currently own a mobile dog bathing business on the weekends, so I am only available Mon-Thurs, dogs are my life, and I travel anywhere in Victorville, Hesperia, Adelanto, and Apple Valley! With all of my experience at multiple dog hotels, I can safely say I have seen it all and feel extremely comfortable with all dog breeds, sizes, and personalities.
About: My family had puppy dog named Hazel who we had for about 3 years. I used to play fetch with her in the backyard when I’d come home from school when I was around 10. I’d help with baths, walking her, my mom taught me how bring her inside when I was home alone doing homework, she behaved great and protected me well. A few years later, she passed from choking while eating something that I think had a bone in it and that was the first experience of heartbreak/loss. A few years after that, I adopted my current pet cat on my birthday, Ace, who I love so much. I’ve always loved animals and give pets to dogs whenever I have permission to, my best friend has many dogs so when I go over her house, I get all the cuddles and get drooled on, which I’m used to at this point. I love watching dog training videos and educating myself as I get older so when I finally get a dog again, as an adult, I want to be prepared and educated on how to protect their health, feed them properly and keep them safe with proper nutrition, exercise and training. I would personally love to get myself a Doberman or German Shepherd (Like Hazel was). I often go to my aunts house who has multiple chunky french bulldogs and help her in anyway I can, I enjoy how sweet dogs are and would love to help do any training techniques you’d love your little doggo to be working on while you are away. I am also in the process of my goal of losing 100lbs! So this helps me get the exercise I need while doing something I’m passionate about! Weekday and Weekends for now, preferably during the Morning & Afternoons on Weekdays and anytime as long as there is a day notice beforehand so I can clear my schedule just for your pet. Not currently doing pet sitting or boarding at my own home, maybe I will be more likely to in the future but I’m not sure yet.
About: I’ve cared for dogs of all kinds over the years and genuinely love being around animals. I’m a stay-at-home wife, so my schedule is very flexible and I’m able to give your pet plenty of time and attention throughout the day. I’m reliable, attentive, and will treat your pet like my own—whether that’s walks, playtime, or sticking to their routine. I’ll also keep you updated so you can feel at ease while you’re away. I am unable to do overnight stays, but I’m a stay-at-home wife, so my schedule is very flexible and I’m available throughout the day for walks, drop-ins, or extended care. This allows me to give your pet consistent attention and stick closely to their routine. I also have a Labrador Retriever, so I’m very used to daily exercise, structure, and giving pets the time and care they need. I provide a calm, safe environment and always respect your home and your pet’s space. I have a Labrador Retriever, so I’m experienced with handling energetic dogs as well as understanding different personalities. I’m attentive whether your pet is playful, shy, or independent, and I’ll follow all instructions carefully for feeding, walks, and care. I’ll also keep you updated so you feel confident your pet is in good hands.
“If you need someone to watch your dogs, you need Linsey! This was our first time using this service and we will do it again as long as it’s Linsey. Believe it or not, she loves your dogs as much as you do. And the way she cares for them shows just as much. Thank you, Linsey!!!”
About: I have extensive experience in pet care, including dog walking, pet sitting, and administering medications for senior pets. What sets me apart is my ability to tailor my approach to each animal's needs, whether it's training puppies with positive reinforcement techniques or providing extra attention and comfort for elderly pets. I’m also skilled in recognizing behavioral cues, which helps me ensure a safe and enjoyable environment for pets of all ages. My commitment to building trust with both pets and their owners fosters a strong bond and peace of mind. I work from home with a flexible schedule, allowing me to fully integrate pet care into my daily routine. This means I can provide attentive care, ensuring regular walks, playtime, and meals are always on schedule. I prioritize building strong bonds with each pet, offering the affection and companionship they need. Whether it’s soothing a senior dog or engaging a playful puppy, I approach every animal with compassion and understanding, creating a safe and loving environment where they can thrive while their owners are away. My goal is to ensure both pets and their owners feel secure and happy. In my home, I create a safe and welcoming environment for pets, ensuring all areas are pet-proofed and free from hazards. I have designated spaces for feeding, play, and rest, allowing pets to feel comfortable and secure. In clients' homes, I follow their routines and preferences closely, ensuring consistency for their pets.

My goal is to ensure every pet feels safe and cared for, whether at my home or theirs.

About: ****BIG PACK FRIENDLY, MULTI-ANIMAL FRIENDLY, FARM ANIMAL FRIENDLY**** I do not judge and welcome all critters and special needs/routines. Don’t hesitate to reach out and ask. I've had pets my entire life! I currently have dogs, cats, birds, and turtles. I foster homeless and lost pets that I find out in the streets, including hawks lol. I am very respectful with senior and disabled dogs. I am happy to give your pets medicine (if any), make homemade dog food if that's what you do, be alert when taking smaller dogs outside to pee, make sure pets don't sneak outside and ensure gates are locked to prevent run-aways. I love my pets and I will ensure to take care of your pets as I would with mine. I will make them feel comfortable, safe, loved while you are away, so don't worry! I will be happy to also send pictures and videos and hop on facetime, so you can chat with your babies! Please make sure to vet any sitter you hire. I have 3 reoccurring clients that I can give as references if needed. I work at office Tuesday-Thursday. Work from home on Mondays and Fridays. Available weekends. For certain circumstances, I can work from home, request PTO to adjust to your needs. Please ask to see what I can do for you. But when working from home, I am very attentive and always checking in and playing with pets. I often step away from my work to tend to your pets needs whether that's taking them out for a walk, out to pee/poop, feed them, play and take any medication of theirs (if any). I will take care of your pets as I take care of mine. I will ensure they are always in my sight and not be distracted on my phone. One thing about me is that I like to be present and not scroll away on my phone as much while on the job. I am always alert to hear if any pets are not chewing on things they're not supposed to in case of a choking hazard. In the past with foster pets, I've had to clear airways for them when they were choking, so I'm not afraid to stick my hand in their mouths to remove the object/food. I will ensure gates and doors are locked to prevent runaways.
“First time working with Jacky. It's been wonderful. I feel like our cat is in really good hands while we are away. So glad to have a trusted care taker near by to call on. Thanks Jacky!”
About: I provide reliable care for both cats and dogs backed by years of hands-on work. My goal is a comfortable, no-stress experience for both you and your pet. I’ve worked with several animal rescues over the years and regularly foster animals in need. I’ve handled animals with many kinds of special needs, from bottle-feeding kittens to administering mediations to seniors. I also care for feral cats, so animals who are feisty don’t faze me! I truly love getting to know each pet I watch and making them feel as comfortable as possible while their family is away. I do my best to keep your pet(s) on their usual routine while you’re away, and always provide them with loving care. I’m patient and adaptable, personalizing care to each pet, whether that means playtime, cozy snuggles, or just keeping a calm presence nearby. I’m happy to communicate updates as much or as little as you prefer, and will send you photos so you can relax knowing your pets are safe and comfortable. Please feel free to reach out to me with any questions or special requests. I’m always open to discussing pricing, availability or anything else you’d like more information on. Talk soon! I work remotely from home. Caring for pets and spending time with them is something I have the luxury of doing throughout the day. The other work I do is flexible so caring for animals is my top priority. When boarding your pet, I provide a dedicated, comfortable space just for them, with everything they need to feel safe and at home. Each pet gets their own room (unless there are multiple from the same household) in a sanitized area, complete with cozy bedding, toys, and anything specific to their care. For dogs, I have a spacious, secure backyard where they can enjoy playtime and walks. I take the time to ensure they’re comfortable, relaxed, and loved while they’re away from home. When caring for your pet at your home, I stick to their routine, including feeding, medication, and plenty of playtime and affection. I respect your home and any guidelines you provide, making sure your pet feels safe, secure, and cherished while you’re away. And if you’d like, I’ll gladly share photo or video updates with you! I know how hard it is missing your babies when you’re away, and I’d love to help you feel at ease and show you they’re being well cared for.
About: Ever since I can remember, I loved animals. I have always had animals in my home since I was young and taking care of them comes naturally. I helped a few of my dogs with their litters. I also helped my aunt with her blind dog like I said I love animals and I’m here to help with whatever you need. I am currently working from home so I have plenty of time to play with your pets. I am available seven days a week to help you with your needs. I have a fenced yard so plenty of room for your dogs to play. I have two small dogs. One was a rescue. My dogs are inside dogs and are crated at night for bedtime.
“What a fantastic first-time experience. Afton was professional and personable, I could also tell that my pets were well taken care of during my time away. I was originally wary of letting someone into my home for so many days, but everything was just as I left it, and my pets were very happy. It was fantastic having someone local, and I would definitely recommend Afton to anyone looking for pet care in the High Dessert or wherever she may venture to in the future.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Spring Valley Lake
Five stars aren’t enough! She went above and beyond during her drop-in visits with our pets. We had to make some changes along the way, and she handled everything with kindness and flexibility. My dog got sick, and she did everything she could to care for her—including cleaning up unexpected messes. Knowing she was there meant so much to me while we were away. She’s trustworthy, responsible, great at communicating, and so sweet with the animals. Even my cats came out to greet her, and they usually run and hide from visitors! That’s basically a five-star review from them, too. I’m so grateful for her care and would absolutely book her again! Seriously can’t put into words how much she helped me to feel comfortable about being away from my dog, cats, and 43 chickens!
Sarah did an amazing job taking care of my babies while I was away. She came three times a day and was always on point with every instruction I left. I was able to check in through my pet camera, and it was clear that my dogs loved her instantly and felt comfortable around her. She was reliable, attentive, and treated them like they were her own. Knowing they were in such caring hands gave me complete peace of mind during my trip. She kept everything clean, made sure they were happy and comfortable, and never missed a thing. I could tell they genuinely looked forward to seeing her each day. I highly recommend Sarah to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, responsible, and truly caring. I would absolutely book with her again without hesitation! ❤️🐾
Laura & Ryan were amazing! They responded quickly and were able to help me out super last minute. They kept me updated, provided pictures during the visit, and made the whole process stress-free. I really appreciated the communication and care they gave Dino. Definitely recommend and would book with them again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
