“We are so grateful that we met Nikki. She has taken such good care of our blind dog, Roxy and our anxiety-filled pup Bob. She’s always so patient with them and I always feel at peace whenever we go somewhere and leave them in her care. Thank you for caring for our pups like your own. We really appreciate you and all that you’ve done for our Bob and Roxy.”
“Rachel is amazing and wonderful. So glad we found her to check in on our 3 dogs. All our dogs are comfortable with her and enjoy her company. She is detail oriented and makes sure our dogs are well taken care of. She takes pictures and videos of them when she drops in for a visit. She is also super flexible and understanding when we have change of plans. Pick Rachel as your go to Rover person!”
About: I am the biggest animal lover at heart. I truly believe that pets are family, and they deserve the same love, patience, and attention as any human. I've always had a deep connection with animals of all kinds, and spending time with them brings me so much joy. I have professional experience working at a dog daycare, where I was responsible for supervising playgroups, feeding, administering medications when needed, cleaning, and making sure every dog was happy, safe, and well cared for. I've worked with dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and energy levels, from playful puppies to sweet senior dogs. I'm comfortable with high-energy dogs, shy dogs, and everything in between. Safety, trust, and keeping pets happy are always my top priorities. My journey on Rover is trying to work for myself and my furry friends because I love the freedom of constructing my own hours and creating a schedule that works for both me and the pets I care for. To me, taking care of animals is not a job - it is a privilege. I don't take that lightly. Every pet in my care will be treated like my own, with endless love, attention, and respect. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, feeding, overnight care, or just someone to keep them company while you're away, I will be there to make sure they feel safe, loved, and happy. My schedule is very flexible, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. I love being able to create my own hours and work around each pet’s individual routine and needs. I’m available for overnight stays, boarding, walks, drop-ins, and extended daytime care. I’m happy to communicate with you beforehand to make sure your pet’s normal schedule is followed as closely as possible while you’re away. Safety, trust & environment Your pet’s happiness, safety, and comfort are my absolute top priorities! 🐾 I provide care exclusively in the client’s home, which means your pet gets to stay in the place they know and love while keeping their normal routine. I’ll make sure they get plenty of love, attention, playtime, walks, and cuddles while you’re away. I’m also very respectful of your home and will treat it with the same care I give your pets. I’ll follow all of your instructions closely and send you plenty of updates and cute pictures, so you can relax knowing your fur baby is happy, loved, and in great hands! ❤️🐶
About: Hi, I’m Alyssa! Animals have always been a big part of my life. From an early age, I’ve cared for family pets and helped friends with everything from daily walks to overnight stays. Whether it’s playtime, exercise, cuddles, or simply keeping a routine, I provide reliable and loving care that makes pets feel safe and happy while their owners are away. My goal is to treat every animal as if they were my own—because I know they’re family. I would love to take dogs on walks in during the early morning hours or in the evening. I’m available to stop by and do check-ins during the day as well! 🐾 Care Elements I Prioritize Routine Consistency — following your feeding, walking, and training habits to reduce stress. Safety & Supervision — secure environments, monitored play, and awareness of household hazards. Cleanliness — tidy spaces, fresh water, clean bowls, and regular waste removal. Enrichment — mental stimulation, sniff walks, puzzle toys, and interactive games. Comfort — cozy rest areas, gentle attention, and calm companionship.
“Elizabeth helped with drop in visits while we were out of town. She took such good care of my girls, sent lots of photos and gave them so much love! Will definitely book with Elizabeth again in the future :)”
About: I have a good experience caring for senior dogs because I had my own dog who passed away three years ago. He was a 17-year-old Lhasa Apso and had been my best friend since I was born. He was blind and had trouble moving around, so I learned how to help him safely and give him the care and attention he needed. Over the past three years, I’ve also taken care of puppies, active dogs, older dogs, and dogs that needed medication, for quick walks, overnight stays and even long periods such as a 5 week stay. I’ve even cared for kittens and senior cats, making sure they were happy, healthy, and well looked after. This experience has taught me patience, responsibility, and how to care for pets with different needs and personalities. Monday: 5:00 PM – 9:00 PM (parents home all day) Tuesday: All day (parents home all day) Wednesday: 5:00 PM – 9:00 PM (parents home all day) Thursday: 5:00 PM – 9:00 PM (parents home all day) Friday: 5:00 PM – 9:00 PM (parents home all day) Saturday: All day (parents home all day) Sunday: All day (parents home all day) • Available for dog walking, pet sitting, and daycare. • Can care for pets while parents are home on weekends. • Evening weekday care after school; some flexibility for short walks or check-ins. I always make sure pets are safe, happy, and comfortable in my care. I follow owners’ instructions carefully, give medications when needed, and make sure animals are never left alone in unsafe situations. Pets staying at my house will always be one at a time(unless from the same household) to ensure they get my full attention. I have a two-story house with a fenced backyard in a safe neighborhood, and we’re close to a public park for walks and playtime. Pets can enjoy a clean, calm, and secure environment, and owners can trust me to treat their animals with love, attention, and respect at all times.
“She was amazing!I booked her to do a drop in bisit to my diabetic cat for a whole month and she would came at the exact time each day,spend time with my cat for more than 15 mins,do his insulin shot and go?I cant be happier with her?will definitely book her again in the future?”
About: I have had my maltese, Milky, for fifteen years and unfortunately had to say goodbye to my childhood dog back in 2023. I would love to meet some new dogs and spend more time with some new friends! I have experience working with dogs as I worked at a dog grooming salon. I had always wanted a dog when I was younger and felt a strange connection to dogs, wherever and whenever I saw them. I have also worked with No Stray Left Behind which is an organization that helps adopt abandoned dogs. I’m currently working part-time so have plenty of time to look after or walk your pet! (: My schedule is pretty flexible so it shouldn’t be hard to find availability! I have a fenced backyard that is definitely safer than just letting the dog outside and also live in a cul de sac where I can safely walk the dog if needed!
About: Hi! I have a 10 year old pup that I love so so much!! She is my only child and I treat her accordingly. I use Rover often when I am out of town for work and feel like the people on this app are the greatest humans. I am looking to give back to the many great people who help me with my dog. Please let me love on your pet too!! I have a flexible work schedule during the summer and would love to help you out during the day and evenings. I am available many weekends as well. I have plenty of experience in keeping my own reactive dog safe and calm. I can use similar techniques with your pet. I have a kind but stern personality that tends to work well with most dogs.
“Erica is wonderful! She takes care of our dog, cats, and turtle when we are out of town and they all love her. After the visit, Erica always writes how the visit went, how our small zoo is doing and sends pictures of everyone. :) They all love getting pets and cuddles from Erica when she visits!”
“Kylie did a great job taking care of my 2 cats. Sweet, punctual, responsive and overall easy to communicate/work with. I will not hesitate to reach out to her again when I need someone to care for my orange boys.”
“Katie is so kind and generous with her time and took great care with our babies. When we had a delay in our travels home she was very quick to respond and schedule extra drop-ins which made us feel at ease. We will definitely be using Katie again and highly recommend her.”
About: I have pet sat for friends and family throughout the years and have developed a special love for it. I have skills administering meds to cats and have three cats of my own! I am a current student that commutes to campus. I will be gone for a couple hours at a time for class, however, I would love to work with you to figure out the best way to ensure your pet has all the attention they need! I treat every pet as my own and every home as my own, with the upmost respect and care for everything in it! If there are any specific house rules, I would be glad to accommodate them!
“Tianna has checked in on my kitties for several trips now and I've always had an amazing experience with her. She's flexible and attentive and was even willing to add an extra visit to help when my trip was unexpectedly extended by a day. I will certainly be looking to book her again next time!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Trabuco Canyon
As always, Aarthi was super professional and took great care of our baby. She's amazing communicating everything and following new or updated instructions, and she's always very affectionate with our cat. We are very happy knowing our baby is in good hands whenever we have to travel
Lauren watched my cat Lola for 10 days. From the start she was quick to respond to messages. Lauren always left detailed Rover cards with plenty of photos for me to view each day. I could tell Lola was happy and healthy! She even swept up Lola’s kitty litter tracks in the living room. I would happily book with her again.
Lisa did an amazing job caring for my 3 cats and 2 Bunnies who need specialized care. I have been struggling for a long time to find someone who I trust to take care of all of my animals for a while now, and I am so glad that I found Lisa. She was responsive and communicative, showed up when expected, and was very thorough in following my (admittedly extensive) instructions on how to care for my pets including medications for one cat and multiple supplements for the bunnies. She showed good decision making when I was temporarily unable to answer questions, and genuinely seemed to care about the care and well-being of my pets. I can't wait to book her again for our next trip!
Mirna is so caring and attentive with our dog Levi and with us. She communicates very well with us about his care with small details we really appreciate. She is compassionate and adjusted our care schedule last minute since our car broke down while we were on vacation. We so appreciate her flexibility to care for our dog for another day because of our delay. We give Mirna our highest recommendation.
This is our 2nd time having the honor of Ariana caring for our tiny Yorkie! Our little girl is very picky about who comes into her World! yet with Ariana Minnie gives her the paw of approval! When we returned, she was balanced clean and happy! This little pet is a family member and Ariana feels like family to her! She is sweet, friendly, caring and very cautious with our little Minnie. I hear she handles gentle giants, medium and in between. Minnie is a teeny Yorkie! 5 pounds and Ariana knows exactly what she needs. I don’t worry one bit! Five stars all the way!
Sabrina & Marc were great! They visited at the scheduled times and made sure to send us plenty of pictures so we knew Peaches was happy and being well taken care of. I highly recommend Sabrina & Marc and will definitely be having them watch Peaches for us again when we go out of town.
Katie is so kind and generous with her time and took great care with our babies. When we had a delay in our travels home she was very quick to respond and schedule extra drop-ins which made us feel at ease. We will definitely be using Katie again and highly recommend her.
Shahla was incredible! She watched my cat and rabbit for about a week and sent me constant pictures, videos, and updates. I only expected her to clean the litter box and feed them, but by day 2, she was playing with them and giving them love. I was surprised because both animals are very shy to new people, but they must have sensed her natural instinct and warmed up to her immediately. I’m so grateful for her and will definitely use her again.
My pups loved Lainie! They can be picky eaters, but they ate for Lainie right away. Lainie took good notes about all of their likes and she is really great with my fur babies. They felt at ease with her, and I trust her walking them too. I plan to have Lainie come back and do house sitting soon.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Trabuco Canyon stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
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 Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Trabuco Canyon. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 95% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, 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 use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
