“Victoria is amazing!! Great updates, great communication and my pup loves her! He has a slight attachment to me, and when he see's Victoria, he's like, "Mom who?!" I feel like his separation anxiety has subsided a lot and overall a much more confident baby boy. Really grateful we've found her!”
“The sweetest kindest person you could ask to care for your pups! I got so much photos and videos during my pups stay. He was so happy with her and the kids, enjoying their walks and the park. I would definitely trust her to have Max again and recommend her to anyone reading this. She is a shining example of why you downloaded this app. To find someone to love your dog while your away.”
“What a wonderful family! Daisy was well cared for and loved on. I appreciate all the videos and great communication during Daisy's stay. Daisy enjoyed her time. Looking forward to her next stay.”
“Sierra was wonderful with Archie! She was very communicative throughout his stay and sent plenty of pictures and updates, which gave us so much peace of mind. You could genuinely tell she cared about him and treated him with so much love and attention. We felt completely comfortable knowing Archie was in such good hands and would absolutely book with her again!”
“Lucinda and her family took great care of Lilo and kept me up to date with pictures of their adventures! I enjoyed my vacation stress-free knowing she was in great hands. :)”
“Camille was wonderful. Afro is my little treasure and leaving him is never easy but Camille made it much easier. Super communicative. Afro even needed some medication administered and she was able to do that whilst I was away. He cozied up to her very fast. Will defo use her again.”
“Mariia was so pleasant to work with. This was our first experience using Rover and we couldn’t be more satisfied. She sent us updates daily and made us feel comfortable keeping our pets with them the entire time. Highly recommend!!!”
“Jonathan was great! He was very communicative and asked great questions to make sure our dog was in awesome hands! He sent lots of updates of the fun activities they did! Our pup came home happy, safe and tuckered out. We will definitely be using Jonathan again and only him!”
“Once again, Frida had a blast with Amorn and Adam. I can tell these two just have big hearts for dogs. Frida gets treated like the princess she so clearly thinks she is. I also love that she's getting to meet and play with other dogs. Thanks again for your time and care and the great pics and communication. Will see you next time.”
“I reached out last minute to see if they were able to take sugz in within the next hour and they were so nice to take him in last minute , he seemed like he loved it there ? will definitely bring him back thank you guys SO much.”
“Aaron was a wonderful caretaker for Sadie! He came to collect her, sent photos, walked her on the beach, and boarded her! When I went to get Sadie, she was happy and had had a great time with Aaron! Will definitely inquire as to his availability again!”
“Ryan and Abbey were absolutely wonderful! They took such great care of our dog and treated them like part of their own family. Communication was excellent throughout—quick responses, regular updates, and plenty of photos that really put our minds at ease. It was clear from the start that they are both experienced, attentive, and genuinely love animals. Our dog came home happy, relaxed, and well cared for, which says everything. We would not hesitate to book with Ryan and Abbey again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable, loving pet sitters on Rover.”
“Brittany was great, she was so flexible with our drop off and pick up times and kept us updated through the day via text. Lola had a great time playing with her dogs as well. Highly recommend!”
“Annabelle and Ben are incredibly kind and professional. I had them watch my dog, Dante, for five days while I went out of town. I highly recommend them to anyone who is looking for a safe, fun, and loving environment for their dog. They welcomed Dante, who is not used to being away from the family, into their home and treated him as if he was their own. They even allowed Dante to sleep in their bedroom and relax on their living room couch. Annabelle and Ben have a large fenced-in yard where Dante was free to hang out and play with their very sweet pup Ranger. Dante also enjoyed fetching softballs from their kids and taking walks around their neighborhood. Annabelle and Ben were incredibly professional throughout the whole process. Annabelle invited me over for a meet and greet before booking and sent pictures daily while I was away. I could tell from the photos that Dante was very well taken care of. Dante came home calm and happy which is a true testament to the expert care that Annabelle and Ben provided. I will definitely use them again. In fact, I will be bringing Dante back in a few weeks!”
“Thank you Rosario and Ryan for another wonderful stay🥰 It was Bisco’s first overnight stay with them, and she sometimes doesn’t eat because she can get a little nervous/anxious at a stranger’s house, but she ate her meal with them just fine. Thank you for providing a clean, warm, comfortable, and safe space for Bisco🙏🏻 Will book again and highly recommend for other fur parents!”
“Jax had a great time at Chenaie's, lots of walks and exercise for my 2 yr old GSD. She was very accommodating for drop-off and pick up and Jax responded well to her. Super experience all the way! Thanks Chenaie.”
“Jennifer has become a second family for our little Agnes. Jennifer is caring, responsive and accommodating. We will continue to have Jennifer dog sit for us as long as she is willing to! Would recommend 5/5.”
“Lucero is great! She took my last minute booking, and followed my instructions to take care of my pop! Sent thorough updates multiple times a day, and tons of photos and videos. Gonna book again next week! Thanks!”

“Kendyl was great with our 3 cats while we were traveling. Reliable and a great communicator. Truly cares for and understands cats. Also left our house extra tidy for our return. I highly recommend Kendyl if you are looking for cat care'”
About: Since highschool, I've been watching family and friend's homes & pets. I have experience with all shapes and sizes of dogs, cats, fish and even some farm animals. I only ever had my own animals when I was a child so as someone who loves being around them, I am grateful for any experiences I get to do so 😊
“Oh my gosh. I cannot recommend Fallon enough. She was just SUCH a blessing to have. I haven’t used Rover in a long time because of a past experience but Fallon is the real deal! Exactly what you’d hope for from a pet sitter. She goes ABOVE and beyond with her care and communication. I truly feel like I can’t leave my babies with anyone else anymore. We have tortoises, flowers, and 4 cats. One of them is super skiddish and she extended so much empathy to him until he warmed up to her. And she nailed it all! The biggest of thank yous from my family to Fallon! We will definitely be seeing her again as my cats already miss her! 🥰”
“Helen was amazing! You can tell she really cares about bonding with pets. She gave us many updates and was very communicative. Don’t hesitate to book her, she’s very trustworthy!”
“Heather was an absolute superstar dropping in on my cat while I was away - when my cat got sick while I was gone (every pet parents nightmare) Heather saved the day by being super accommodating and taking her to the vet!! Cannot say enough good things :)”
“Leyla was an amazing sitter and we couldn't ask for any better! She gave us detailed updates and asked us all the right questions about how to make sure to be the best caretaker for our pet. 100% recommended!”
About: Have a picky eater and a ten-step feeding strategy? No problem! Got a little shy guy who needs time to warm up? I’m happy to take that time, so that your baby is comfortable and happy. Your cat needs to ride on your shoulders and scream in your ear while you make their dinner? (No? Just mine, I guess!) Hello, animal parents! I’m Taylor, a 36-year-old long-time professional animal and human caretaker with great references. My partner and I have a full house: two cats, three dogs, and pond fish. I’m available for drop-in visits for cats, dogs, horses and other hooved loved ones, as well as reptiles, amphibians, fish, and any other little critters. I have been paid to care for cats and other animals (horses, donkeys, mules, goats, dogs, hamsters, tortoises, and even a squirrel) since I was 18. I currently provide care for three cat households on a regular basis (besides my own lovely cats).
About: I’ve cared for cats my whole life, including rescues and shy kitties. I grew up with two stray kittens, one I bottle-fed and the other I found as a child. I also cat-sat for neighbors from middle school through high school. In college, I fostered a very shy, formerly stray cat, and with lots of love and patience, he eventually came out of his shell. I ended up adopting him and he now sleeps in my bed, follows me everywhere, and is happy and affectionate. I’m experienced with feeding, play, litter care, and reading cat body language and boundaries, ensuring every cat feels safe, comfortable, and loved.
“Lili was truly a life saver when I needed someone to come check on my cat Maisie urgently. She was there within 2 minutes and was super prompt with feeding her, making sure the balcony door was closed, finding her hiding under the bed. It was an urgent situation and I couldn’t have been happier that Lili was up for the job because she went above and beyond. You MUST book for your pets too, she is an expert and great with animals!”
“Sarah was wonderful. She was patient with me and my roommate while we tried to figure out our vacation schedule, and she even came over for a meet and greet with my cat BEFORE we agreed to hire her, just to make sure he took to her. My roommate and I have 3 cats together, and they had only recently been introduced so there were a lot of interesting dynamics Sarah was walking into. She did a great job with them.”
“Aurelie was amazing with our kitty! We were a little nervous to leave our cat for the first time in a new place, but once we met Aurelie all of our worries ceased. She’s incredibly respectful of space and was so sweet and wonderful with our little buddy. We’d have her back in an instant.”
About: My roommates in college had two cats. One was outdoor and one was indoor. They were pretty easy and I loved to play with them! I once cats sat a household with 5 cats that was one of my favorite cat sitting experiences as they all have very different personalities. Lastly, I helped Raise/integrate two cats into a 4 cat household. So I can Help keep kittens apart or integrate them together!
“Taylor did a great job and was very good at communicating with me during her drop in visits. She was also very thoughtful of my home and I appreciated it. She went the extra miles of wiping Chico’s paws when they were full of mud after being out on the grass. She was very understanding of my dogs behaviors too and made me feel relieved while Chico was in her care!”
About: I have been an intuitive, responsible cat and kitten caretaker for over 15 years, growing up my family had multiple cats which I was solely responsible for - I now channel that caretaking expertise into assisting fellow cat lovers. I do not currently own a cat myself so you can feel secure in knowing you kitty with have the space for themselves. I hope to give you peace of mind knowing your cat will be loved, cared for responsibly and respectfully! Whether they are chaotic, playful, and rambunctious or more shy and requiring of slowness and space, I tailor specific care you your baby’s needs.

“Celeste is the best! It was River puppy's first time at a dog sitter's and Celeste made her feel right at home. She's a great communicator and sent lots of cute photos during the day. Highly recommend!”
About: I grew up with both cats and dogs, so I truly understand how much they mean to a family. I genuinely love caring for animals and always adapt to each pet’s unique personality. I take into account their breed, age, and energy level to make sure they get the right balance of attention, play, and rest. Living in Santa Monica has been amazing—I walk or run by the beach every day, often twice, and it’s even better with a dog by my side. I’m excited to meet you and your fur baby! Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine because I work remotely from home. That means your dog will have plenty of company, attention, and love throughout the day. I’m here for walk breaks, playtime, and snuggles—making sure your pup feels safe, cared for, and never alone for long. I care for dogs with the same love and attention I give my own. Whether in my home or yours, I provide a safe, calm, and nurturing environment. I follow your pet’s routine, give plenty of playtime, walks, and cuddles, and always prioritize their comfort, health, and happiness. Every dog is treated like family.
“Our first experience with Rover and trusting our puppy with someone we’ve never met. But Aaron kept us in the loop, sent lots of adorable pictures and was extremely responsive. This was a last minute request too and Aaron didn’t hesitate to help us out. Thank you!!”
“Today was my puppy’s first Rover experience and she had a blast with Melissa! Melissa shared lots of fun photos and videos throughout the day which helped keep my first time nerves at bay. Little Roo came home happy and sleepy - a sign of a great day had!”
“Diah was great with Arby. She took several pictures throughout the day so that I was well aware of how Arby was doing. Arby is usually shy with other friends but looked like she enjoyed her time!! Thank you and see you again soon!”
“My boy Archie loves to see Anastasia and we look forward to our next visit. She helps with crate training and other training as well. Thanks Anastasia!”

Because I’m home full time, your pets will receive plenty of playtime, love, cuddles, and personalized attention. I take the time to understand each pet’s special personality, routine, and comfort level so they feel safe and cared for while you’re away. My number one priority is your pet’s safety and wellbeing and I create a calm, secure, and loving environment. I have experience working with a variety of behavioral needs and can also administer medication if needed. For your peace of mind, I have full coverage insurance and I don’t take in more than two outside dogs for daycare or boarding at one time so each one receives individual, personalized care.

Your pets will enjoy all of the attention, companionship, and affection they deserve while you are away! Since I’m home full-time, your pets will receive plenty of attention, playtime, cuddles, and love. With Palisades Park and the beach a few blocks away, your dog will have plenty to explore!

“Yupee has a very calming sense about her which made me feel very much at ease to leave my dog under her care. Her own doggies are incredibly sweet and friendly. I really appreciated the updates and photo. I will for certain use her again.”
“Lucinda was absolutely wonderful with our dog, Gigi! This was Gigi’s first time staying with her, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Lucinda took exceptional care of her, made her feel comfortable and loved, and it was clear that Gigi had an amazing time. Lucinda is kind, reliable, communicative, and has a genuine love for animals. We are so grateful to have found her and look forward to our pup staying with her again. :)”
About: With lifelong experience caring for dogs, horses, and cats, I'm an animal lover and horse whisperer. I train my pets, provide energy healing, and enjoy daily walks. Pet care seamlessly integrates into my daily routine, as I work from home and have the flexibility to design my own schedule. As an energy healing practitioner, I prioritize mindfulness and balance, which extends to my pets. I incorporate playtime, walks, and training when needed into my day, ensuring they receive ample exercise and mental stimulation. During breaks from my meditation and yoga sessions, I find joy in spending quality time with my pets, fostering a nurturing environment. Their companionship enhances my work-life balance, and I often use sound healing techniques to create a calming atmosphere for both myself and my furry friends. Caring for pets in my home is a thoughtful process. I have a fenced yard where your dog can play safely alongside my sweet 15 year old boxer, who loves companionship. I welcome only dogs that are friendly with cats, as my 4 year old indoor cat enjoys their company. I feed all dogs outside, right in front of my kitchen, ensuring a clean and pleasant environment. Cats are fed separately in the kitchen, with their food placed on furniture to keep is safe from curious dogs. For hydration, I have a water fountain for the cats and a water dispenser for the dogs, both inside and outside for the dogs. When needed, I can easily crate your dog at night; my boxer is crate trained but prefers to sleep freely now. I require that you bring your dog and cat with their own bed, food, and treats, ensuring they feel comfortable. Additionally, It's essential that all pets have a collar with a tag and a leash for safety. This structured approach helps create a harmonious atmosphere for all furry friends in my care.

About: With over eight years of hands-on pet care experience, I don’t just “watch” animals — I build real bonds with them. I take the time to understand each pet’s personality, routines, quirks, and comforts so they feel safe, seen, and genuinely loved. Every animal in my care is treated as if they were my own, with patience, protection, and affection at the center of everything I do.

I follow their routines closely, provide loving companionship, and make sure they feel safe, calm, and comfortable in their familiar environment. While I am there taking care of your pets, I am also taking care of your home — keeping a clean, safe, and mess-free space for your animal to relax in.

About: As a lifelong animal lover from a family of animal lovers and with 13 years in animal rescue, I’m the person who always rescues animals in need, especially from high-kill shelters.

I also practice animal communication and healing, helping pets feel less anxious. Alongside my rescue work, I run a trauma healing and mental health non-profit, creating programs to help individuals heal and reclaim their lives. I’m a writer, work from home, and am passionate about holistic health, music, travel, and nature. Your pets will receive compassionate care from someone who truly loves and understands them. I have animal friends from all over the world. I work from home and at my own schedule. Flexible availability any time or day of the week.

I ensure a secure environment, follow any specific instructions from pet owners, and provide ample affection and attention.
“Aurelie agreed to walk Zumi on super short notice. From the pictures, Zumi seems to have loved her! She fed her and made sure to give her the probiotics she needed. Aurelie was a lifesaver!”

About: Dogs have been my life since I was 7 years old — that’s over 35 years of loving, caring for, and understanding what makes every dog tick. I own three incredible pups myself: two Pitties and a Doberman mix, so I know firsthand what big, energetic, loving dogs need to thrive. What truly sets me apart is that I volunteer at my local animal shelter, where I work hands-on with all breeds — from tiny dogs to large and powerful ones. I’m comfortable and confident with every size, temperament, and energy level because I’ve seen it all. Walking dogs isn’t just a service for me — it’s something I genuinely love. Your pup will get attentive, caring walks from someone who treats every dog like their own. I’m bonded, insured, and committed to giving your furry family member the best experience possible. Dog walking and pet care fit naturally into my daily routine. I’m available seven days a week with flexible morning, midday, and afternoon time slots. Whether you need a regular weekly walker or a one-time walk, I can work around your schedule and make it happen. Your dog’s safety is my absolute top priority on every single walk. I’m bonded and insured, so you have full peace of mind from the moment I pick up the leash. I walk in safe, familiar neighborhoods and keep dogs secure and controlled at all times — I handle big, powerful breeds every week at the shelter so no dog is too much for me. I send updates, photos, and check-ins during every walk so you always know your pup is happy and safe. Your dog will be treated exactly like one of my own three.

“I reached out last minute to see if they were able to take sugz in within the next hour and they were so nice to take him in last minute , he seemed like he loved it there ? will definitely bring him back thank you guys SO much.”
“Annabelle and Ben are incredibly kind and professional. I had them watch my dog, Dante, for five days while I went out of town. I highly recommend them to anyone who is looking for a safe, fun, and loving environment for their dog. They welcomed Dante, who is not used to being away from the family, into their home and treated him as if he was their own. They even allowed Dante to sleep in their bedroom and relax on their living room couch. Annabelle and Ben have a large fenced-in yard where Dante was free to hang out and play with their very sweet pup Ranger. Dante also enjoyed fetching softballs from their kids and taking walks around their neighborhood. Annabelle and Ben were incredibly professional throughout the whole process. Annabelle invited me over for a meet and greet before booking and sent pictures daily while I was away. I could tell from the photos that Dante was very well taken care of. Dante came home calm and happy which is a true testament to the expert care that Annabelle and Ben provided. I will definitely use them again. In fact, I will be bringing Dante back in a few weeks!”
“Jax had a great time at Chenaie's, lots of walks and exercise for my 2 yr old GSD. She was very accommodating for drop-off and pick up and Jax responded well to her. Super experience all the way! Thanks Chenaie.”
“Jennifer has become a second family for our little Agnes. Jennifer is caring, responsive and accommodating. We will continue to have Jennifer dog sit for us as long as she is willing to! Would recommend 5/5.”
“Lucero is great! She took my last minute booking, and followed my instructions to take care of my pop! Sent thorough updates multiple times a day, and tons of photos and videos. Gonna book again next week! Thanks!”
“Mary was great with my dog. He doesn’t like everyone, who does? Lol But he did great with Mary and their dog. I couldn’t have asked for more, really. He’s very active and they let him run 2x a day plus he got to cool off in their pool. If you’re concerned about leaving your dog, choose Mary, it will make you feel good every time you go away:)”
“Joanna could not have been more kind and accommodating. My Daisy is with me all the time so it takes her awhile to warm up to someone new. Daisy knew a dog lover right off the bat. I saw her instantly bond with Joanna. I received photos all the time, and next time I need boarding, I will contact Joanna.”
“Colin was incredible with Kaia once again. I have the utmost confidence that Kaia is going to be well taken care of and have fun/be loved when she's with Colin. Couldn't recommend more.”
“Renata was so great and our pup had the best week. She communicates frequently with photo updates and we appreciated her so so much. Millie would be glad to visit there again.”
“My dog had a wonderful time being cared for by Nayira and her family. She made it easy for my husband and I to relax on vacation knowing he had so much love and attention. She also was great communicating when issues came up. Would absolutely recommend booking with Nayira and I’m sure my dog is looking forward to his next stay. :)”
“Kiyarash was helpful during a sudden time of need. He took care of Cooper for a full night’s worth of boarding and I appreciate the daily updates with pictures. It seemed like his frequency and rotation of dogs is never more than one at a time so there’s also no need to worry about whether your dog specifically will he compatible with other dogs. His space is open and well-kept and I appreciated the house tour at drop off.”
“Ryan is the best dog sitter in the area. I can trust him to take care of my little one without any worries. He always sends me lots of updates and pictures so even if I miss Rosie, I know she’s in the best hands.”
About: One delightful benefit of being single and living alone is I’ve ended up being the person in my friends group who gets to dog sit for all my friends whenever they go out of town. I studied Ecology at University and the love and respect of all animals is very much ingrained in me. I work from home, so to have a justified incentive to leave my desk and go for a walk would be gratefully appreciated. I live in the foothills of Sherman Oaks which makes for easy, safe walks in a very dog friendly neighborhood. I’m also more than happy to hop in the car and take dogs to the park. I’m completely flexible to the desires and recommendations of the owner. I care for dogs as if they were my own. Lots of interaction, affection, a continual supply of fresh water and hopefully a buddy to watch the Premier League with me on the weekend!
“Alexis was fabulous. 10 stars. This was the first time using the app and she was the first person I found. She was very responsive and we had very clear communications. The first day my two pups went to her house they were clearly not happy when I dropped them off but then I started getting photos of how well they were integrating. She walked them, loved them and when I took them back the second day they were reaching for her when I went to go hand her the dogs. She had a clean home and the experience was just amazing. I would highly recommend Alexis for all your doggy needs. She was great.”
“Dina watched Sawyer for a night and was very responsive. She sent lots of pictures, including some sweet ones of her kid playing with him. I’d definitely book with her again.”
