About: I grew up surrounded by dogs and love all animals, my dad had a dog business and we had all kinds of pets at home! Though I can't have a pet in my apartment, I enjoy caring for others' furry friends. I offer reliable dog walking, in-home check-ins, and pet sitting for small to medium dogs and cats, treating each pet like my own! Pet care fits seamlessly into my routine since I work from home and set my own schedule. I’m able to give pets consistent attention, timely walks, and companionship throughout the day, ensuring they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for. Since I’m not allowed to have pets in my apartment, I focus on caring for them in my clients’ homes. I follow their routines closely, provide plenty of attention and play time, keep their space clean, and make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while their owner is away.

About: I'm a dedicated dog owner myself so I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet. I'm patient, attentive e and committed to making every walk safe, fun and stress free. I treat every dog like family. I balance my work schedule with pet care and always make time to provide reliable, attentive, and loving care. I carefully plan my days to ensure each dog receives safe, enjoyable walks and consistent attention. On walks, I focus on providing safe, enjoyable exercise tailored to each dog’s energy level. I always follow the owner’s routine and make sure pets return home happy and well cared for.

“Katrina is so kind and thoughtful. We were so happy with how our home and pup were cared for while we were away on vacation. Katrina sent lots of photos, and is quick and easy to communicate with. We’ll be booking again!”

“Esther is such an amazing person , so positive, loving, and full of warmth! She cared for my dogs and cats with so much love and even helped me organize my home. She’s truly perfect, and I’ll definitely work with her again. I trust her completely with my babies and can’t recommend her enough!”

“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.”

“We have a very active 60 lb. dog who requires a daily hike. Tina took Hazel out for an hour each day, and when it proved too hot in the afternoon she switched to mornings. She followed all of our requests and Hazel really liked Tina. She (Tina, not Hazel) left the house clean and tidy. We have already made arrangements to hire Tina again. We recommend her wholeheartedly.”

About: I’ve taken care of animals for the longest time as young as 16. I would love to treat your animals the same way I would treat mine and give them the best care possible. I am currently working part-time as a dental assistant at a pediatric office. I am available Friday through Sunday morning through night, anytime you’d like. I have taken care of my friends cats when they were out in trips. I also give the best care to my own cat and dogs as in giving them their favorite treats, attention, playtime, and potty time.

“Ally was absolutely wonderful to work with and so caring towards our dog and the bunny. We can’t wait to go on a trip again with peace of mind that comes with knowing you’re fur babies are in great hands.”

“Jacqueline is a very soft-spoken and kind lady who took care of our Nutella at our home for a little over two days. Our cat was very well cared for and we received multiple daily photos showing her activity, making us feel very comfortable about having left our cat in Jacqueline's care. She also took very good care of the home. We are very happy with the help Jacqueline gave us in caring for our cat when we were away and will easily consider her for the next time we have a similar need !”

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.

“Laura has been our sitter for several years now, and we’re so grateful for her! She takes wonderful care of our cats, and keeps us updated the whole time. We’d be lost without her!”

“Kaylynn stayed overnight and took wonderful care of my two BIG strong breed dogs- Pitt Bull and Bull terrier. —-she loves animals! Also took great care of my home and cleaned dogs dishes. Highly recommend her.”

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. (: 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. (:

“This was our second time using Ashley to houses it & take care of our pup, and once again she was perfect! Couldn’t ask for a better sitter. Would highly recommend!”

“I can’t wait enough kind words about Michelle’s. Our boy Rocco is already missing her and it’s only been one day. Her daily check-ins and photos were always wonderful and helped alleviate any stresses while we were away. I highly recommend her for anyone who is on the fence about finding someone who will treat their dog like their road and their house. Thank you, Michelle. Rocco can’t wait to see you again.”

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my extensive experience growing up on a ranch, where I've cared for a wide variety of pets. This background has equipped me with valuable skills in handling different animals and understanding their individual needs. Whether it's training puppies, providing specialized care for senior pets, or tending to unique species, I bring a wealth of knowledge and genuine passion to ensure the highest level of care for every furry friend. My hands-on experience and deep understanding of animal behavior allow me to tailor my services to meet the specific requirements of each pet, setting me apart as a reliable and dedicated caregiver. I’m a college student living on campus hundreds of miles away from home and my own fur babies. Outside of school I have lots of free time and would love to spend it doing something I love and enjoy. For in-house pet care services, I prioritize the comfort and well-being of the pets in their familiar environment. This includes regular feeding, providing fresh water, administering any necessary medications, engaging in playtime and exercise, and ensuring a clean and safe environment. I also offer companionship and attention to alleviate any feelings of loneliness or anxiety while their owners are away. Additionally, I can perform basic grooming tasks such as brushing and nail trimming if needed. Throughout the pet care process, I maintain clear communication with the pet owners to provide updates and address any concerns promptly.

“Nisa was genuinely amazing caring for Scar on our day out to Universal. She regularly updated us with pics and videos, spoiled our doggo to death, and was so extremely communicable throughout the entire process going above and beyond anything expected! Scar loves her so much so we are for sure going back :) 10/10 on all sides of the board, fantastic dog sitting!”
