“5/5! Achara had great communication and she was amazing with my puppy! My puppy didn't even look back at me when I dropped him off 🫠 Photo updates made me feel at ease and she reassured me that he was doing well. Will definitely rebook with her when I need a sitter again!”
“Erin is a very loving doggy sitter. I can go away and feel my dog is in good hands. Erin sends two updates daily along with pictures. She has 2 dogs, who my dog gets along with just fine. I highly recommend Erin”
“Sade is great and responded to a last minute request. She was communicative, and she responses very quickly. Her home is organized and clean, and her two fur babies are adorable. Trina stayed with her for one night and was well taken care of. I would come back again, thanks Sade!”
“My dog is elderly and mostly deaf. When we travel we have always had someone he's familiar with take care of him. This time we didn't have that option. Susan and Ervin took very good care of Riley. I appreciated the texted updates about how he was doing and the attached photos. I won't hesitate to have Riley in their care when the need arises.”
“Grisel took great care of my pup. She was very communicative & always kept me updated with pics of my girl, made me feel at ease knowing my pup was in good hands. Mila looks forward to her next visit with Grisel.”
“Doh was an excellent communicator for our first time experience with Rover. Louie was in good hands with extra playmates and she treated him like he was her own dog. I would highly recommend Doh to anyone looking for a dog sitter.”
“This was my second time booking with Martha, and she was wonderful once again. She was very flexible with drop-off and pick-up, provided regular updates, and took great care of my dog while I was away. I felt completely at ease and would definitely book with Martha again!”
“Melissa took very good care of Chewie. . Melissa sent multiple photos of chewie during her two days stay with her. Chewie looked so happy and relaxed. We are really glad that we found Melissa through Rover. We will certainly use her services again in future.”
“We absolutely love having her take care of Max! She has watched him two times now, and both experiences have been amazing. She is so friendly, kind, and caring, and we can tell Max has the best time with her. He gets lots of exercise and loves playing with her dog, Bowie, which makes us so happy! She also sends tons of pictures and videos, so we always feel connected to Max while we’re away. Overall, it has been such a wonderful experience, and we highly recommend her!”
“As a first time pet owner, sending Dubu to a boarding service was very nervous at best. My wife found Miya based on others recommendations and they are absolutely correct. From the initial meeting to introduce herself to Dubu and me to series of communications to prepare me for dropping Dubu off at her place made it easy and set up an expectation of what to expect. I could feel that Miya was very dedicated to the wellbeing of the dogs in her care. Taking Dubu out to walk 4 times in an one day stay just because Dubu wouldn’t go potty shows this. In addition to this, I’ve learned quite a bit more of what is like to raise a puppy from her experience. Experience was so great, I’ve booked next service with Miya already!”
“Tracey is the best! I am always hesitant to leave my senior chihuahua with anyone because she can be a little difficult but Tracey put me at ease from the first meeting and upon picking my little one up after her stay, I am not sure she was even excited to see me😂I have already recommended Tracey to a friend and will be calling her again. Thank you Tracey for taking such good care of my baby💕”
“I was out of town for about a month and Reginay was amazing taking care of my Aussie "Nac. She keeps me updated every day with photos and videos. Nac came home in great condition after more than 3 weeks of boarding. Highly recommended!”
“Destiny stayed with our 13-month-old male Dutch spaniel for four days three nights, and we all could not be happier with her responsible and loving care! This was the first time we were away from him that long, and she kept us informed, sent photos & videos, and helped him to relax and be himself. They became good buddies! We highly recommend Destiny as a responsible, flexible, and caring dog sitter.”
“Alesya was so wonderful with my little dog Eddie! She was so sweet to him! I know Eddie felt so good with her, she treated my little dog as if it were hers. They went on 2 walks a day which Eddie loved! Alesya is a very warm person, she sat with him and comforted him when he got nervous She truly is the best! Fondly, Maureen Bolla”
“Laura took such good care of my cat Shiny and made all the accommodations she needed. She even checked in and sent me a couple updates with photos. Thank you Laura for making my vacation worry free!”
“Such a loving family, she has young kids so be sure your pet is comfortable with kids. She’s so sweet and caring, has a great home for boarding your pet. Definitely coming back in the future.”
“Our fur-child stayed with Lety for 4 nights which is the longest our sweet boy has been away from us. As always she communicates and provides updates in a timely manner throughout the day starting with breakfast time. Lety also takes amazing pics of him enjoying his walks and playtime with her dog Mason. He seems to enjoy his time whenever he goes to Lety’s. I’m grateful to have someone very caring to watch my Niko when needed.”
“Chelsi took such great care of Levi when we took a long weekend to go camping. She’s so attentive and sent great updates. I would recommend her to anyone looking for their doggy to have a home away from home 🫶🏽”
“Wenchi was very caring and attentive to my cat- sent me lots of pictures everyday so I was never worried about her. Perfect transitions of dropping off and picking her up- my vacation was much more relaxing knowing that my cat was safe and sound. Thank you!! I will definitely be booking again in the future 😸”

About: I’m a lifelong cat lover with three cats of my own, so I truly understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your fur babies. I also foster kittens from time to time, so I have plenty of experience with cats of all ages, temperaments, and needs: including shy adults, playful kittens, and everything in between. I’m comfortable administering medications (oral and topical), and I actually enjoy keeping litter boxes clean and fresh. My goal is to make your cat feel safe, relaxed, and cared for while you're away; whether that means playtime, quiet companionship, or sticking closely to their routine.
About: Hi! I’m Jasmine, new to Rover and currently offering discounted rates while I build my reviews. I provide attentive, reliable care and treat every pet like my own. Animals have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember, and caring for them truly makes me happy. I have over 20 years of experience, training in pet first aid, and a background in rescue and fostering, so I’m comfortable with everything from playful pups to shy or senior pets who just need a little extra patience and love. At home, I have two dogs and a cat of my own, so I completely understand how important it is to know your pets are safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I also offer house sitting and light cleaning, so not only are your pets taken care of, you’ll come home to a tidy, well-looked-after space too. I’m happy to help with things like bringing in mail, keeping things clean, and making sure everything runs smoothly while you’re gone. Expect lots of updates, cute moments, and peace of mind knowing your pets (and home!) are in good hands 💛 I work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pets the attention they deserve throughout the day. I’m available for drop-ins, walks, and house sitting, and can easily fit into your pet’s normal routine to keep things consistent and stress-free. Whether your pet needs early mornings, midday check-ins, or evening cuddles, I’ve got it covered! I provide care in your home so your pets can stay comfortable in their own space and routine. I take the time to learn each pet’s needs, personality, and preferences to make sure they feel safe, relaxed, and well cared for. With experience in pet first aid, rescue, and fostering, I’m comfortable handling a variety of situations and always prioritize safety. I’m also respectful of your home and happy to help keep things tidy, bring in mail, and make sure everything is just as you left it, or better, when you return. You’ll get regular updates, photos, and peace of mind knowing your pets are getting lots of love and attention while you’re away 🐾 I am happy to meet at a coffee shop prior to your booking so you can ensure I'm the right fit!
“Jazmine was great, she took great care of our cats one of which is very timid and she was eventually able to play with her which we were amazed by. Took care of the plants in the house and kept the litter box and house clean when any little messes were made, couldn't recommend her more”
“Absolutely top notch doggie service. Jasmine and her son ensured that my dog was safe and comfortable, which made me feel the same. They checked in and sent pictures daily. Couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. I highly recommend her and her son. Love, love, love. 💯❤️”
About: I'm a patient and dependable caregiver who understands that every cat has their own personality, boundaries, and routine. I'm comfortable with feeding, refreshing water, cleaning litter boxes, cleaning other messes, playtime, and simply keeping a cat company while their person is away. I know some cats want constant attention while others prefer their space, and I'm happy to let each cat set the pace. As an educator with a bachelor's degree in Child and Adolescent Development, I'm used to being responsible, observant, and attentive to individual needs. I also understand how important it is to have someone you can genuinely trust in your home and caring for your pet. I've had many pets of my own over the years, so I understand how important it is to find someone you can genuinely trust to care for your pet and your home while you're away. While I'm not able to have a cat of my own right now, I would love the opportunity to give that same care, attention, and affection to yours. I look forward to getting to know your pet, making them feel comfortable and loved, and caring for them as if they were my own. 😺
“Dylan was fantastic with our dogs! We had never used this service before and Dylan put all of our worries at ease. He was fun to be around and we received so many updates and pictures of the dogs and turtle, it made being away so much easier. The next time we leave on vacation, Dylan will be the first one we call on to take care of our babies!!”
“Super happy! Last minute needed to add eye drops and he was up for keeping our cat healthy. Super thankful to be able to have such a reliable and caring individual.”
About: -Kennel walker and care provider for 2 years -K9 School Dog trainer apprenticeship program -Several years of dog walking experience -Experience with Large Dog breed and care I have a now 1 year old Corgi and a very talkative and loving 6 year old Husky, I’ve always had a passion for dogs and am looking to work with them as much as I can. Currently I have a backyard and I love to have hands on play time with my current pets. I like to spend lots of one on one time with my own dog and love to do so with others. I love meeting new dogs to see new personalities, I try to make sure that every dog feels safe, comfortable and just as happy as I am to meet them and care for them.
About: What sets me apart as a sitter is my experience, versatility, and special skills. Not only do I currently dog sit and house sit for three families on an as-needed basis, but I also bring a wealth of experience in handling dogs of all ages and needs. I’m skilled at training puppies, which includes basic obedience and socialization techniques. Additionally, I’m comfortable with senior dogs, providing them with extra care and attention to meet their specific health and mobility needs. My commitment to understanding each dog’s unique personality and routine ensures they feel safe, loved, and well-cared for while you're away. I currently work full-time in a community-based job where I have the flexibility to create my own schedule. I like to tailor my schedule around my needs for the week, with weekends being when I have the most availability. My current families prefer that I stay in their home, and I’m open to doing the same with other families as well When caring for pets in my client's home, I make sure to follow any specific instructions or routines the family has established. I ensure pets are fed on time, given fresh water, and get the appropriate amount of exercise and attention. I also monitor their health, administer any needed medications, and keep the environment safe and clean. If there are specific needs or requests for the pets, I prioritize those to make sure they feel comfortable and cared for in the absence of their owners
“Absolutely amazing! Being my first experience I was a little nervous but, immediately felt comfortable when I saw the way my dogs were around her. Pics and updates were great allowing me to feel free to enjoy my trip. 100% would recommend and do this again..”
“Markita is awesome! She checked in on my two kitties over the holidays and was super responsive and clearly cared about their wellbeing. She even offered to go out and pick up more cat food when she saw the bag was low, which was so above and beyond what I would ask and was very thoughtful. I would totally recommend her”
About: I’ve taken care of any kind of animal you can name. I’ve worked/volunteered at recuses, breeders, vet offices, and my family has raised and raced standardbred horses since I was born. I also pet/house sit often. I know cpr/first aid for both dogs, cats, and small animals. I have also been approved for my 501(c)3 non for profit animal rescue license and I’m working towards starting my own animal rescue center. I work part time and I’m going to school to become a phlebotomist. I currently care for my rabbit, cat, 20 chickens, three peacocks, great dane, and five horses. So hard work is not new to me! As someone who leaves things better than I find them, your house, pets, and privacy are are my number one priority. You won’t have to worry about the safety of your pets, state of your home, or any medication/special needs your pet(s) may have or need!
About: I have taken care of cats for many years and am very much a cat person. I have experience with cats of any age, from kittens to seniors. I have experience giving medication to cats, training cats (my own cat knows several commands and I am willing to work with your cat on some as well if you’d like!), as well as the general feeding, playing with, and grooming cats. I have taken care of breeds of all kinds with different needs, as well as cats requiring daily medications or with special needs.
“Shelby was fantastic! I was wary of the whole process and trusting a stranger with my cat, but she made me feel completely at ease. I knew right away that she cares as much about her animals as I do, and would treat mine like her own. She took great care of my cat, gave him all his food, medicine and attention, and left my house looking immaculate! I will definitely ask her to come back.”
About: In addition to caring for my own cats, I often help friends and neighbors with their pets when they travel. They trust me to keep their cats safe, comfortable, and loved while they’re away — which has given me more experience with different personalities and routines. The services I provide are designed to give both pets and owners peace of mind. I can: Visit your home for feeding, fresh water, litter cleaning, and quality playtime. Provide overnight care in your home or mine. In my house, I’ve set up a special space for visiting cats — cozy, safe, and fully equipped with food, water, toys, and a clean litter box. Offer enrichment and companionship, whether your cat loves to play, cuddle, or simply needs a calm presence. Give oral or topical medication if your cat requires it. I understand that every cat has a unique personality. Some are playful, others are shy or senior cats who need extra patience. My goal is to make each cat feel comfortable and cared for as if they were my own.

“Wonderful experience! My dog was in great hands. The sitter was responsible, attentive, and very caring. They kept me updated with photos and messages, and I could tell my pup felt safe and happy the whole time. Communication was easy and smooth, and it’s clear they truly love animals. I highly recommend them and will definitely book again.”

About: Hello, we are Natalie & Chau. I, Natalie, was a teacher who is certified in CPR. I have my bachelors in psychology and worked as a supervisor and teacher for developmentally disabled adults and teenagers. However my passion had always been about animals ever since I was 5 years old. So now I am living my dream surrounded by animals of all kinds! Both my partner and I work from home so there is always someone home and it’s double the fun! My family and I are well versed in dog training methods and are very well adapted towards handling multiple dogs at once. We live on a mini 1 acre farm so your dogs can experience a mini vacation/retreat while they’re here. It is also very therapeutic for dogs who have anxiety as we have small farm animals and our garden for them to enjoy. On days when the weather is good we like to be in the yard to play off-leash and they can spend time with my dogs indoors as well. During the afternoon we stay indoors and then they will spend the night with me in my room. There will be naps involved and lots of love! We have just moved three years ago and we are finally reopen to new doggy friends from around the area. We are not doing in house meet and greets due to safety reasons but we can meet you at the local park nearby! I’m home all the time so they would be with me 24/7 unless I’m out on an errand. I will not ever leave dogs alone in the car without me. I have an acre of fenced yard. If your dog is more of a hunter than a lover of small animals such as a chicken we would be leashed to walk around the property. There is plenty of space!
“I am happy to have found Sade! She has 5 stars & repeat clients! (Check) She responded promptly & was interactive. (Check) Her profile page is informative, especially for newbies. (BONUS) She has such a kind disposition that when I met her, I knew my baby would be in good hands.(Check) I was happy that she also had pets, including a puppy, which was a plus for my active pup. (BONUS) She sent short text upates, pics & a video throughout the day so I didn't have to wonder what was going on. (Check) She took my active pup on two walks. (BONUS) And I could tell my pup had a great time because when I came to pick her up I almost couldnt get my pup to leave the steps of Sade's front porch! (BONUS Check! )”
“Kona seemed to have a great time - she loves kids and was thoroughly tired out when she returned home from the day. Looking forward to having Kona stay again in the future!”
“2nd stay w/Lety. I appreciated all the updates and communication during my sweet boys time at her place. It was comforting to know he was being cared for and most of all having a ball w/Lety & her pup! I received a video of him playing fetch which made my day!”

“Nicole was and is very accommodating and genuinely comes off as an animal lover which was very wonderful to find. It’s not easy leaving your fur babies with strangers but she went out of her way to make mine feel welcome and make sure that she didn’t overwhelm him. I fully plan on using her services again and would wholeheartedly recommend her if any of you are interested in a good dog sitter.”

About: I have been a pet owner for virtually my entire life! Cats, dogs, rabbits and even a bird! My partner and I recently lost our beloved Jack Russell Terrier “Terrie” after 14 wonderful years. While regular travel commitments make it difficult to adopt another companion of our own at this time, we would love the opportunity to care for your “best fur-iend” when we are home! My partner and I both work from home, so, rest assured, someone will always be there with your pet for playtime, potty breaks and walks. I have a fenced yard in a quiet neighborhood. The house is of a decent size and currently we are without a full-time pet of our own. Your pet will enjoy being the center of attention!
About: What sets me apart from other dog sitters is my deep understanding of dog behavior and my genuine passion for creating a safe, fun, and loving environment for every pup I care for. I don’t just “watch” dogs—I engage with them through structured play, enrichment activities, and tailored routines based on their needs and personalities. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine as a stay-at-home mom. I’m already used to maintaining a structured, nurturing environment, and that translates perfectly to caring for pets. I’m home throughout the day, so I can provide consistent attention, regular potty breaks, walks, playtime. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, my focus is always on creating a safe, loving, and stress-free environment.
“Amazing dog sitter!! Susan kept me updated on the entire stay with our pup. She even picked up which saved us a lot of time. I would definitely recommend her and rebook with her!”

About: Animals have always been a big part of my life. While living in Australia, I spent two months walking and house sitting an Alaskan Malamute, which taught me a lot about handling large, high-energy dogs with care and confidence. I’ve also walked and cared for dogs belonging to friends and family, so I’m familiar with a variety of breeds and temperaments. On the feline side, I have three rescue cats of my own, all former strays, and I regularly foster kittens, so I’m experienced with cats of all ages; from bottle babies to seniors. I also love visiting cat sanctuaries just to spend time with the kitties. Whether it’s dogs or cats, I’m passionate about giving animals the love, attention, and respect they deserve. Pet care fits perfectly into my daily routine because my schedule is currently wide open. I'm in between career paths right now, which gives me the flexibility and time to fully dedicate myself to the pets I care for. Whether it's early morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening visits, I can easily adapt to your pet’s schedule and needs. This also means I’m available for last-minute bookings and longer stays when needed. Caring for animals brings me a lot of joy, and I love being able to make it a meaningful part of my daily life. When I care for pets in a client’s home, my top priority is to ensure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved; just as they would if you were home. During house sitting, I stay in your home and closely follow your pet’s usual routine, whether that includes feeding, medication, walks, playtime, or quiet companionship. I also keep your home clean, secure, and tidy, watering plants if needed, and making sure everything is just as you left it. For drop-in visits, I provide personalized care and attention, including feeding, fresh water, cleaning litter boxes or backyard potty breaks, administering medications when required, and spending quality time playing or cuddling. Whatever your pet needs to feel relaxed and cared for while you're away. When it comes to dog walking, safety is always my number one priority. I use secure harnesses or leashes, avoid busy or high-traffic areas, stay alert to other animals and potential distractions, and tailor each walk to your dog’s pace and energy level. I never walk dogs off-leash and always ensure they’re hydrated and comfortable before and after each outing. Plus, I send regular updates so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well cared for.
“Natalie is so kind, patient, and reliable. My dog Sage is a rescue dog and needs a very calm, gentle, and consistent approach. She’s never hesitated to make my dog feel comfortable, I will continue to book with Natalie whenever I need her to help me out with Sage! She’s great.”

“This was Sonjia’s first time walking our dog, Nico, and she did a wonderful job. She took him on two walks on Thursday and another on Friday, and she was punctual, professional, and easy to communicate with throughout. Nico responded really well to her right away. He is an older dog and the heat can tire him out quickly. He came back from each walk tired in a good way, and it was clear she handled him with care and attention. We felt very comfortable trusting her with him and would happily book her again.”
“He watched our dog while we were out of town for four days and he was reliable and communicated with us during each visit. He sent photos of our pup on each visit and also fed and filled his water bowl. We will definitely be booking him again in the future. Thank you, Cedric.”
About: Loved and cared for two puppies, potty trained them and how to sit and shake. Currently caring for our second chihuahua that is 10 y/o I am currently taking classes on the weekdays for a Personal Training program—which is really flexible.

About: I have taken care of dogs and cats since I started walking. I currently have a beautiful bengal named nova and a tiny chihuahua named lucky.

I am willing to be flexible and extend what hours I am available if discussed ahead of time. I would love to do walks and enjoy your fur babies to help people. I have always been very sure to make sure all gates/fences are closed, all doors are closed, pets are accounted for and making sure meds are dispersed correctly. Your pets are safe with me.
About: I’ve grown up with (and pet sat) tons of different animals! I can work with dogs, cats, horses, goats/sheep, birds, reptiles, rodents, you name it! Cool with feeding, watering, potty breaks, administering medicines, cleaning, etc. I’ve been doing dog training for about two years now, and am comfortable working with fearful/reactive animals too. Tons of experience across all fields! I’m a part-time college student with a lot of time on my hands! I think pets deserve all the love and attention I can provide for them, and I’m happy to do just that. Following routines is my jam! Feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, just let me know what you and your furry friends prefer and I’m happy to follow your lead!
“Shelby feels like family. I asked her to stop by so I could introduce her to Lala and walk her through the routine. She was on time, and she made me feel very comfortable. She was at ease with Lala, who is almost blind, and somewhat stand offish. She is definitely, a keeper!”
“Tatjana was really fantastic with my dog. She took her time to get to know my dog during the meet and greet. She has an understanding of dogs and what they need. Definitely recommend her and will be using her services again. Thank you so much.”

About: I’ve been a lifelong dog lover and am the proud dog mom of my own Husky–Goldendoodle, Nagi. Caring for her has given me experience with daily walks, exercise, feeding, enrichment, grooming, and understanding different dog personalities and needs. Friends and family have trusted me to care for their pets, and I know how important it is to provide a safe, loving, and consistent routine while owners are away. In my professional career, I manage programs for the State of California, so being dependable, organized, and communicating clearly comes naturally to me. I bring that same level of responsibility and care to every pet I look after. My goal is to make every pet feel comfortable, loved, and cared for while giving owners complete peace of mind. I’m available for morning, afternoon, evenings, weekend, and holiday pet care. I’m happy to provide walks, drop-in visits, and overnight house sitting depending on my schedule. I always keep my calendar updated and only accept bookings that allow me to give your pet the attention, exercise, and care they deserve. Communication is very important to me, and I’ll send regular photo updates throughout each visit. I know pets feel happiest when they can stay in their own familiar environment. I carefully follow your pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, medications (if needed), and any special instructions.

About: Hello, I grew up around animals and love to be with goats, dogs, cats and reptiles. I have loved growing up with my bearded dragon and cat. I love calm animals and my sweet 2 dogs at home.

About: I grew up on a farm, animals galore. I was always with the animals, they are incredible companions, as well as teachers. I have been on the birthing end of Dogs, Birds, Fish, Turtles Horses, Cows and sheep. Unfortunately I have been on the departure side as well. My love of animals is only second to my love of Life. When your pets are under my care, rest assured that I will act as an extension of you. I also have a very extensive medical education, no not vetinary, but this is the one time I am glad they can't talk. People give way to much information, where as animal will give you indications as to the possible problems. It has been my experience that diet is usually the culprit, but not always. Thanks from one Animal Lover to their Owners. half of the question is blocked so I am not sure what I am describing? i think its asking how does pet care fit into my schedule. it's part of the job. make sure all exits are secure, and that water and food are available, for cats, I would check their box for clumps. Any other critters would be treated according to there familial traits.

“We absolutely love having her take care of Max! She has watched him two times now, and both experiences have been amazing. She is so friendly, kind, and caring, and we can tell Max has the best time with her. He gets lots of exercise and loves playing with her dog, Bowie, which makes us so happy! She also sends tons of pictures and videos, so we always feel connected to Max while we’re away. Overall, it has been such a wonderful experience, and we highly recommend her!”

I gladly give Sixuan 5 stars for her excellent service and cannot recommend Sixuan highly enough! She did an absolutely wonderful job looking after my fur-baby!”

“Needed a last minute sitter for a week while we were away, and couldn’t be happier with Amanda! We have a really anxious dog but he settled in fairly quickly and had a playmate with Amanda’s daughter. In fact when picking Simon up, her daughter was carrying Simon … it was so sweet. Definitely wouldn’t hesitate to go back to Amanda.”
“We had the absolute pleasure of meeting Sandra and her family who meticulously cared for our pups while we had to go out of town for a funeral. During a very difficult time, Sandra and her family helped take in our pups and made them a part of their own pack. Our two pups deeply enjoyed their time with Sandra’s family. We were provided up to date information, photos and video clips of our pups and their activities everyday. If you are looking for someone who will meticulously care for your pups and treat them like their own, we would definitely recommend Sandra! We are looking to book with Sandra again in the future!”
