“We couldn't be happier with the care Skilly received! From the moment we dropped her off, it was clear she was in great hands. They made Skilly feel comfortable, loved, and right at home, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. We received updates and could tell she was being treated like part of the family. When we picked her up, she was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. Thank you for taking such amazing care of Skilly. We will absolutely be using your services again and highly recommend you to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter!”
“Catherine was a lifesaver!! She took amazing care of our fur baby and was super flexible when we needed extra days of dog sitting due to a medical emergency when we were out of town that prevented us being able to pick him up on time. We are so grateful for her compassion!”
“Cooper and Nora are wonderful people, they are true animal lovers. They were wonderful with our puppy, Marley. Marley is usually very shy, and won't warm to other people very quick, she has to really trust someone before she let's them pet her. She was having a good time with Cooper and Nora, she warmed up to them quite fast. Plus their rates are truly affordable, they bring a lot of value. We would definitely bring her to them again. Thank you very much Cooper and Nora.”
“Mario has always been great with my little maltipoo. And we now have a labradoodle and he loved it there as well. Mario goes out of his way to send pictures and do some great training things with him. Easy to work with and great communication. Definitely recommend.”
“We had a wonderful experience and would give more than 5 stars if we could! Our dog was so comfortable and happy during her stay, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. Communication was excellent throughout our trip - we received regular updates and felt confident that our dog was well cared for. It’s clear they genuinely love animals and provide a safe, welcoming environment. We would happily book with them again and highly recommend to other pet parents!”
“Claudia is not only our favorite but our dogs favorite. Briggs, our dog, loves her and can’t wait to see her when we pull up to her house. She is compassionate and thoughtful. We get regular picture updates and texts about how he is doing. He is also in love with her two pups. We are lucky to have Claudias help, she is kind and responsible. Thank you.”

“This was our first time using Rover & finding pet care for our dog! Deandra and her family were so lovely and kind and we felt so at ease leaving our pup with her. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience.”
“We were very happy with Steph and it seemed our dog was happy too. She followed our feeding instructions and made sure he had 2 walks a day and got to play fetch in her backyard. I really liked the way Steph stated in touch with us through photos of our dog and comments on how he was doing. We highly recommend Step for a dog sitter . Thank you Steph”

“Ashley was AMAZING with our cat Gigi. She was always on time, energetic and playful, and went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable being away from her. I got so many adorable pictures and videos of my cat having a blast. She helped us and our little girl feel so comfortable being apart. Definitely book her!!”
About: Cats have always been a special part of my life. I’ve cared for two of my own cats for 20 years, so I understand the dedication and love required for long-term feline care. From energetic kittens to seniors needing extra TLC, I adjust care to each cat’s personality. I’m experienced with medications, maintaining routines, and creating calm, low-stress environments. I also know all the tricks to get a cat’s attention—like opening a book or laptop, which magically makes them appear right on your keyboard! Whether your cat enjoys active play or quiet lap snuggles, I ensure they feel safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away.
“Waverly was amazing! The perfect amount of communication, super reliable, and sent the best pics. She did everything we asked for each drop-in visit, we could tell our pup was in good hands. Will definitely be booking again for future pet sitting!!”
About: i have four cats, i bottle fed my rescue cat when he was a kitten back to health, i have experience with sick kittens and cats as well, i helped my sibling nurse their kittens with panleukopenia which is almost always fatal but they both survived. i know how to care for cats with special needs for example my Persian cat needs nose cleanings everyday.
About: I’ve always loved cats and have cared for them for friends, family, and clients. I understand that every cat has a unique personality some love attention, while others prefer their space. I’m patient, gentle, and focused on making sure your cat feels comfortable, secure, and loved in your absence.
“Denise was a 10/10 cat sitter. She was extra communicative, gave us very detailed updates from her visits, and was very respectful of our house. She’s also super sweet and friendly. Would definitely book her again!”
“I highly recommend Annette! She accepted my booking request on very short notice, which was a huge help. She took great care of my three cats and was reliable, responsive, and thoughtful, sending me pictures and updates during each visit. It gave me peace of mind knowing my pets were in good hands while I was away. I truly appreciated her help and would gladly book with her again.”

About: I’ve had cats my entire life and currently have 2 cats of my own that I’ve cared for for over 13 years after rescuing them off of the street. I also have experience caring for neighbors’ cats while they’re away. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, litter box care, playtime, medications if needed, and giving shy or nervous cats time and patience to warm up at their own pace.

About: Hi! My name is Tommy. I’m a recent UCSB graduate with a deep love of animals big and small. From having had a dog myself, I know that when you have to leave the house, the first thing you worry about is your fur baby, and the last thing you want is for them to be left alone. That’s where I come in! I’m a trustworthy and responsible pet sitter, dog walker, cat watcher, goldfish feeder, horse whisperer (okay, maybe not that last one), here to take care of your pets for you while you’re gone, and give you the peace of mind of knowing that your baby is in safe hands. Services I provide include pet-sitting, dog-walking, litter-box cleaning, feeding, medication-administrating, house sitting, plant-watering, and more! Let’s connect! 🐾🐾 I'm currently working part-time from home as a research assistant (a job I can do on my laptop from virtually anywhere) - so I have plenty of time to take care of your pets, and give them the attention and TLC that they deserve :) I care for pets by giving them extra attention, as I know many animals can be initially stressed by new environments and/or new people. We start off by introducing them to me with you there, so they associate you - a person of comfort - with this new "scary" person, and find out they aren't so scary after all. Then after you leave, I watch over your baby with extra care, and take them on walks throughout the neighborhood to turn any potential nervous energy they might have into excitement about this new friend they're making.
“Kathlene was absolutely amazing at taking care of my cat Dragon. Her attention to detail and genuine care is evident. From making sure all of Dragon’s needs were met to feeding and playtime and even sending me updates! It’s clear that she truly cares about Dragon’s well-being and comfort. My cat can be a bit finicky but Kathlene’s calmness and patience won her over quickly. I could not have asked for a better caretaker and am definitely trusting her again in the future. Highly recommended!”

“My two dogs loved Ashley! They have extreme separation anxiety being away from me, but they were so comfortable with Ashley and loved being with her! She took amazing care of them and sent updates throughout their stay! I will use her again! :)”
“Our pup has stayed with Kay a few times now and we've already scheduled some more visits. Kay is very patient and kind. She is also very accomodating. Vaughan gets to walk and play in the yard and comes home tired and happy. Thanks Kay!”
About: Lifetime of love and experience taking care of animals. From guinea pigs, birds and large tortoises to 100 lb dogs and many animals in between. I will provide a comfortable and safe family home, large fenced yard, two 30 minute walks/day, and infinite love. Don’t mind administering oral meds if needed. I work full time from home all days of the week/end and have a flexible schedule. Happy to provide morning and afternoon walks in a family friendly neighborhood. Your dog will get to stay in a loving family home and will have full access to large fenced yard with plenty of sunshine, grass and shade. Your dog will be pampered with attention, belly rubs and play time. Lots of sunny napping spots for when they want to chill.
“Ellen was great. She took great care of our pup and was very easy going. She even had some advice for activities in town that were really great. We will definitely see her again next time we are in town.”
“Sara saved our trip! We were camping in the area and planned a day out at the Channel Islands NP (not dog-friendly). Our original doggy sitter canceled on us two days before and we scrambled to find someone last minute. It was a blessing in disguise. Sara is the absolute sweetest! Communication was excellent. She updated us throughout the day with photos and kept our girl busy with playtime, a walk, and a hike. She was able to administer medication too. I can’t say enough good things! Thank you, Sara!”
About: I’ve had dogs all my life. I learned responsibility by having dogs all my life. The attachment and care I have for animals is tremendous. My heart is full because of them and it breaks when they’re hurting or sad. I take a lot of pride in the way I care for my own animals. I always put their needs first. I even took a remote job so I can spend more time with them. When my dog got sick I was constantly monitoring, medication handling, and I never put her health to the side. I act quickly. I also am very careful with who the dogs I take care of come in contact with. I can read dogs body language and will not force them to be in a situation they don’t like. Some dogs are friendly and some like their space. It is important for me to create space. It doesn’t matter if a dog is small and won’t hurt a fly, they can agitate a dog that can hurt them. I have even saved a yorkie from being attacked by a dog. This wasn’t under my care but I knew what to do and stepped in. I currently work remote. This means I can take out the pups for play and for a walk. I live right down the street from a park. And prioritize taking the pups out 2-3 times a day. Making sure they’re out for more than an hour. I have a small back yard and 3 friendly dogs. One old Shih Tzu, a heeler, and a yorkie. They love to play but love to protect their home so they will always be loud when someone is at the door.. I always treat the pups the same. I know how worried I am leaving my heeler behind so I know to take good care of new pups because I know they’re missing their parents too! As for someone else’s home. I do the same! Obviously respect the home but work in a schedule to accommodate what I need to get done but also create play, walk, or enrichment play.
“We were on a road trip and discovered our dog was not permitted on Channel Islands. We reserved a day with Lori and happy we did. She was very good with our neurotic but lovable cattle dog. She got to go for a car ride and fed treats. She was happy and safe! Thanks Lori, hope to see you when we pass this way again.”

About: I’ve been a big pet lover my whole life. I’ve raised 2 cats and 2 dogs (a terrier and a Rottweiler). My furry best friend passed away last year so I find this opportunity to help out other families and friends in need of assistance as a blessing to experience and offer my services. I currently work remotely so I am very flexible with schedules of anytime during the day/night. My household is pet friendly as well and currently has a sweet older lab at home. I set reminders to make sure our furry friends get the attention they need throughout the day, wether that’s a walk, playtime or feeding time.
“Words cannot express how wonderful Richard and Mystique are and the loving care they provide for our high energy puppy. They treat him like family, and he gives them hugs and kisses during daycare drop off. They also take the time to give our puppy leash training on walks. Absolutely recommend Richard and Mystique.”
About: Friends and neighbors have relied on me to walk, feed, and bathe their pets while they are away from home. I find joy in caring for animals. Working hybrid Monday through Friday gives me flexibility to adjust my schedule when needed, and I’m always happy to spend my weekends caring for furry friends. With proper coordination, I can also host pets overnight giving them a comfortable, safe, and loving environment while you’re away. I pride myself on being professional, kind, and inviting so that both you and your dog feel completely at ease. I have a cozy pet spa in my apartment complex where I can pamper your pet with baths and playtime. I also love taking daily walks, hikes, and runs to keep pets active and happy. I believe every pet needs daily stimulation whether that’s exploring new scents on a walk, enjoying a good run, or simply relaxing in a calm space. While you’re at work or away, I’m here to provide your pet with comfort, companionship, and the reassurance of not being alone.
About: Hi! I’m Kayla, a lifelong dog lover and animal person. I raised a 15-year-old Havanese from puppyhood through her senior years, and now share my life with Willow, my playful and social one-year-old cattle dog mix who absolutely loves having dog friends around. We live on a peaceful mountain property near Carpinteria with lots of outdoor space to explore. Our days are full but relaxed — usually a mix of time at home while I work on graduate school coursework, walks around the property, afternoon rest time, and beach outings or little adventures into town. I love matching each dog’s energy level — whether that means active hikes and play sessions or a slower-paced day with cozy naps and calm companionship. I’m currently in graduate school studying acupuncture, so I’m home most of the day and able to provide consistent supervision, attention, and care. I also love sending photo and video updates so you can see your pup enjoying their stay. I have experience with training and behavior work, including helping raise a previously reactive rescue dog. While I have that background, I’m currently focused on hosting dogs who are comfortable social playmates for Willow, so I’m not taking reactive dogs at this time. Our home also includes chickens (securely enclosed), and I’m happy to accommodate pickups or coordinate logistics to make things easy. If you’re looking for a safe, loving environment where your dog can enjoy outdoor adventures, companionship, and attentive care — I’d love to connect! As a graduate acupuncture student, I spend most of my days at home studying, which allows me to provide consistent supervision, companionship, and structured care. Our daily routine includes relaxed time at home, walks around our mountain property near Carpinteria, rest breaks, and beach or town outings depending on your dog’s energy level. I’m able to accommodate active dogs who love adventure as well as pups who prefer a slower, cozy pace. Because I’m home frequently, dogs are rarely left alone and get lots of attention, enrichment, and outdoor time throughout the day. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. We live on a peaceful mountain property with plenty of outdoor space and a calm home environment. This property is unfenced. My dog Willow is a friendly, playful cattle dog mix who enjoys respectful dog companions. Dogs are supervised during interactions and introductions are done thoughtfully to ensure everyone feels comfortable. I’m experienced with training and behavior awareness, comfortable administering basic care, and attentive to each dog’s individual needs and boundaries. Our chickens are securely enclosed. I provide regular photo/video updates and maintain clear communication so you always feel confident while your pet is in my care.
“I cannot thoroughly explain how grateful I am that Lexie agreed to watch my boy for me; we had met with another sitter months in advance who agreed to our pick up and drop off times at the meet and greet, but decided to cancel on me a few hours before! Beyond flustered and upset I was panicking, but Lexie came to the rescue but not only that, she provided Oliver a safe place to interact with other dogs. 🥹🧡 She provided updates with pictures to let me know my baby was safe and being watched. if you’re looking for a sitter who is reliable and will love your dog like their own, I highly recommend Lexie. I will be using her again in the future.”
“My husband and I were visiting Ventura and in desperate need of a sitter for my dog. Chelsey was super professional, positive and very sweet. My baby was happy when I picked him up. I definitely will bring my dog back. Thank you Chelsey.”
“When we arrived to drop of Bubba, Deandra invited us inside, I liked that. She kept us updated about how he was doing during the day. I would definitely contact Deandra again.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all kinds since for the past 4 years. I stay over night, go on walks, feed, bathe, and have dealt with disabled dogs before. I even have experience with cats whom have needed to be feed and the litter box needed cleaning. My neighbors, family, friends, and even people who I’ve been recommended to have put their trust in me with their pets. The longest time I’ve pet sat was for two weeks and it was with two dogs that needed to take medication 2 times a day. I have even let sat for my neighbor who’s elderly Labrador dog’s two back legs don’t function correctly. I am prepared for anything and everything :) I am a full time student at the University of Southern California Monday-Thursday, but I have times where I don’t have classes. Just message me and majority of the time I will be free! Friday-Sunday I don’t have school and I am usually free the entire day. At home I have a 6 year old male Golden Retriever who needs to be walked and fed multiple times throughout the day. I love to spend time with my dog whether it’s lounging around or going on hikes/to the beach with him. At clients house, I usually tend to check in with the dogs throughout my day, stay overnight at the house, or even board them at my house. I make sure that they’re fed, let out to go potty, and even give them the love/attention they need.

About: I am hyper-attuned to your dog's needs ensuring your pets sense of trust and well-being is secure. Showing up and being present is my priority! I work primarily from home, and my schedule is flexible from the morning to early evening time, making it easy to schedule service times that work conveniently with your schedule and pet needs. Routines and consistency are important to ensuring a dog's sense of the world and trust because they can anticipate what to expect each day. With my own dogs, I wake up and take them for a jog first thing in every morning. The routine accompanied with the daily exercise makes for very happy, well-behaved and content dogs. I will bring that same perspective to your pet's life. Additionally, I am a long time Rover customer and when I was single and working 9-5, I relied heavily on my dog walker and sitter to show up daily, on time, in a loving, attentive way. For those of you who are away from your pets for long periods, please know that I understand the importance of being that consistent person in their life who shows up on time and meets their needs in your absence. Being a Rover walker and drop-in visitor is my way of giving back and saying thank you for all those who supported my pups for so many years!

“Mike was on time and courteous, and most importantly, developed an instant rapport with my skittish shepherd. He was great at handling her when she tried to bark at a little dog, and got her under control without being harsh. I feel good about him walking her alone.”

He went above and beyond to make sure they were well cared for and happy. We always felt confident they were in great hands. We’re so grateful for his help and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him. Will definitely be booking with him again!”

I’d be glad to take them to the park or beach to get them to run around and play. Let me know if there is any special things your dogs need.
About: I’ve had dogs all my life. I learned responsibility by having dogs all my life. The attachment and care I have for animals is tremendous. My heart is full because of them and it breaks when they’re hurting or sad. I take a lot of pride in the way I care for my own animals. I always put their needs first. I even took a remote job so I can spend more time with them. When my dog got sick I was constantly monitoring, medication handling, and I never put her health to the side. I act quickly. I also am very careful with who the dogs I take care of come in contact with. I can read dogs body language and will not force them to be in a situation they don’t like. Some dogs are friendly and some like their space. It is important for me to create space. It doesn’t matter if a dog is small and won’t hurt a fly, they can agitate a dog that can hurt them. I have even saved a yorkie from being attacked by a dog. This wasn’t under my care but I knew what to do and stepped in. I currently work remote. This means I can take out the pups for play and for a walk. I live right down the street from a park. And prioritize taking the pups out 2-3 times a day. Making sure they’re out for more than an hour. I have a small back yard and 3 friendly dogs. One old Shih Tzu, a heeler, and a yorkie. They love to play but love to protect their home so they will always be loud when someone is at the door.. I always treat the pups the same. I know how worried I am leaving my heeler behind so I know to take good care of new pups because I know they’re missing their parents too! As for someone else’s home. I do the same! Obviously respect the home but work in a schedule to accommodate what I need to get done but also create play, walk, or enrichment play.
About: Hi! My name is Tommy. I’m a recent UCSB graduate with a deep love of animals big and small. From having had a dog myself, I know that when you have to leave the house, the first thing you worry about is your fur baby, and the last thing you want is for them to be left alone. That’s where I come in! I’m a trustworthy and responsible pet sitter, dog walker, cat watcher, goldfish feeder, horse whisperer (okay, maybe not that last one), here to take care of your pets for you while you’re gone, and give you the peace of mind of knowing that your baby is in safe hands. Services I provide include pet-sitting, dog-walking, litter-box cleaning, feeding, medication-administrating, house sitting, plant-watering, and more! Let’s connect! 🐾🐾 I'm currently working part-time from home as a research assistant (a job I can do on my laptop from virtually anywhere) - so I have plenty of time to take care of your pets, and give them the attention and TLC that they deserve :) I care for pets by giving them extra attention, as I know many animals can be initially stressed by new environments and/or new people. We start off by introducing them to me with you there, so they associate you - a person of comfort - with this new "scary" person, and find out they aren't so scary after all. Then after you leave, I watch over your baby with extra care, and take them on walks throughout the neighborhood to turn any potential nervous energy they might have into excitement about this new friend they're making.

“Ari is a gem. Great personality, grounded, responsible and kind. Dogs have a sixth sense. When my Sofi ran into the house to greet me after her walk to say I’m back she immediately returned to Ari for some rubs. I knew then I was totally comfortable giving my sweet girl’s care to Ari. Three walks done and many more planned. Thank you, Ari, for making Sofi’s life better. She loves her walks.”

“Cooper and Nora are wonderful people, they are true animal lovers. They were wonderful with our puppy, Marley. Marley is usually very shy, and won't warm to other people very quick, she has to really trust someone before she let's them pet her. She was having a good time with Cooper and Nora, she warmed up to them quite fast. Plus their rates are truly affordable, they bring a lot of value. We would definitely bring her to them again. Thank you very much Cooper and Nora.”
“We had a wonderful experience and would give more than 5 stars if we could! Our dog was so comfortable and happy during her stay, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. Communication was excellent throughout our trip - we received regular updates and felt confident that our dog was well cared for. It’s clear they genuinely love animals and provide a safe, welcoming environment. We would happily book with them again and highly recommend to other pet parents!”
“Claudia is not only our favorite but our dogs favorite. Briggs, our dog, loves her and can’t wait to see her when we pull up to her house. She is compassionate and thoughtful. We get regular picture updates and texts about how he is doing. He is also in love with her two pups. We are lucky to have Claudias help, she is kind and responsible. Thank you.”

“We were very happy with Steph and it seemed our dog was happy too. She followed our feeding instructions and made sure he had 2 walks a day and got to play fetch in her backyard. I really liked the way Steph stated in touch with us through photos of our dog and comments on how he was doing. We highly recommend Step for a dog sitter . Thank you Steph”

Amber's home is comfortable and she provided a very nice stay for my pup. She even gave me fresh eggs from her chickens! I highly recommend Amber and would not hesitate to use her again!”
“Sheena took such good care of Mango. She went above and beyond most Rover hosts we have asked to take care of Mango in the past. She sent us so many videos and photos of Mango to us. Our Mango loved her kids and really enjoyed her time with them. In addition, it was a rainy day and Sheena washed and dried Mango’s sweater and also made sure Mango was dry from the rain. Would highly recommend and would book again.”
