“Hana was a great doggie Mamma when we were away for a week. The dogs looked happy and in spite of very hot weather they got in their exercise and usual stimulation and cuddles. Thank you Hana!!!”
“Kristina was great. Daily walks and various other activities for my pup, plus loads of updates and photos to give you peace of mind. Would 100% get her again to take care of my furbaby!”
“Kat was amazing when it came to communicating before and during my dogs stay with her. She is very professional & kind. Would definitely recommend her to anyone who needs any dog sitting services. FIVE starts”
“Emily and Sam are phenomenal. They have a great family setting and environment for our dog. They sent many pictures during our dog’s stay and I was able to see our dog was loved, well cared for, happy, and felt at home. I wouldn’t go anywhere else to have our dog boarded after having this wonderful experience.”
“Meena was great! Taking care of Milo 🥰 She provided him love and care Milo is 1.5 years old, he usually gets nervous around strangers., but Meena was awesome to ease him up in no time. We appreciate that Meena kept us updated while we were away. Thank you, Meena🥰”
“We left our dog for a week with Nutan and she had the best time ever! We got plenty of pictures, and we knew how well she was taken care of. We will gladly leave our pup here anytime we have to go out of town:)”
“I was really nervous about leaving my dog for boarding, but April made the whole experience so much easier. From the start, she was warm, professional, and clearly loves animals. She even sent me a video while I was away, which helped ease my mind and showed me how happy and well-cared-for my dog was. I truly appreciated the communication and care she provided. I highly recommend April and will definitely be using her services again!”
“Martin and his son were excellent. Communication was consistent, and they kept us updated with pictures, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. It was clear our dogs were being cared for with the same level of attention and affection we would give them ourselves. Our dogs came back happy, relaxed, and clearly had a great time — especially being able to interact with their dogs as well. Martin and his son were responsive, reliable, and genuinely caring. We’re very grateful they were available on a weekend and would absolutely trust them again.”
“Absolutely ideal. I think my dogs enjoyed their night away from home as much as we enjoyed our get-away. Parnian sent so many pictures of our dogs lounging, eating and playing. I feel like she loved them like her own dogs. I hope they get the chance to stay with her again. Highly recommend!”
“Darryl & Janice went above and beyond, truly exceeded expectations! This was our first time ever leaving our dogs with someone and our first time using Rover. They took the time to explain to us how it worked, reassured us with our concerns, they were patient and understanding! But the cherry on top that made this experience AMAZING was the report cards, certificates and bow ties they gave Zeus and Boo! They made this experience feel like they were staying at grandma and grandpas house and were spoiled! Thank you for your kindness and caring for our babies we will absolutely be returning!”
About: I've grown up around dogs my whole life and have been walking and caring for friends and family's dogs for years. I know how to give each pup the attention and exercise they need. My daily routine is very flexible. I'm available every morning and evening for walks, and I build my whole schedule around your dog's needs. Whether it's a quick potty break or a longer adventure, I'll make sure your pup gets the exercise and attention they need. I always care for pets in the client's home. I follow any special instructions you give me, keep your house clean, and make sure all doors and gates are securely closed before I leave. Your pet's safety and your home are my top priority.
“Personally I give them a 10/10. They took the time to bring Bagel out of his shell while he was in a new place. They were very friendly, patient, and updated with pictures and videos to ease my worries while I was away. I would definitely board my Bagel here again!”
“We couldn’t be happier with the incredible care Winnie provided for our dog while we were away! From the very first meet & greet, it was clear how much love and experience she brings to every visit. Our pups (who can be a bit anxious with new people) warmed up to her instantly and was always so excited to see her. Winnie went way above and beyond—daily photo and video updates that made us feel completely at ease, extra playtime and walks, and she even sent little “good morning” messages with pictures of our dog happily wagging his tail. She followed our detailed instructions perfectly, kept their routine consistent, and made sure they got plenty of cuddles and mental stimulation. She’s reliable, communicative, professional, and truly treats every dog like her own. If you’re looking for someone who will give your furry family member the absolute best care, she is the best. Thank you so much, Winnie! We’ll be requesting you for every future trip. 🐾❤️”
“Took great care of our pets going above and beyond with communicating and sending updates. We were worry-free right away knowing our pets were in good hands. Thank you very much to the whole family for helping take care of our babies!”
“This was our first time using Rover and will continue using Tyler. She was wonderful our dog liked her instantly. Tyler provided pictures and messages promptly. I recommend Tyler for anyone who wants their pampered pet to taken care of.”
“Couldn't have asked for a better sitter to take care of my furr baby! Dorcas is so sweet & patient. Did not hesitate to care for my female husky considering that my dog needs to be given medication twice a day. She would send updates on the daily with pictures & my furr baby looked so happy. Definitely a huge relief that she was in good hands. Will forever book Dorcas as long as I need to. (:”
“Sierra was amazing and has a lovely family. They took care of my boy, very responsive, great communication, took great videos and pictures with updates. Went on walks which my boy loves. i can tell he really liked them cuz he turned back to say goodbye to all of them. I will definitely be using her again.”
About: Hi! My name is Sherleen and I love dogs and have always grown up with them. I had a childhood chihuahua that I took care of for over 15 years. I now have a malte poo and a pug that I’ve been raising for over 11 years since before they could be weaned from their mom. You can imagine the nights waking up to feed them like human babies! I’ve picked up doggie accidents that seemed like natural disasters and have groomed and bathed my dogs since having them. I’ve cared for dogs from shelters who have trust issues around humans, dogs with behavioral issues and health issues. This includes giving them routine medication around the clock, dedicating time to gaining trust, or as simple as them needing help cleaning themselves after using the restroom. I own 2 Brachycephalic dogs so I also understand the attention those breeds require. Personally, my pug is allergic to fleas and ticks so my house and yard are flea and tick free for her safety! I am a college student who’s doing classes online this summer and can 100% dedicate attention and care. Dogs are our babies and deserve nothing less! I currently work with students as an orchestra tutor and a coach working with students ranging of ages. I work around schedules for students and I can do the same for people needing pet sitting! As a school district worker I am required to do background checks and fingerprints to be a teacher, I understand having a stranger take care of your dog can be stressful but with this knowledge I hope I can ease some of your minds. As a dog owner it’s only essential to give your dog attention, interaction and above all, patience. Dogs like playing, walking or just chilling with their owners and those things vary between dogs! Some have way more energy than other dogs and it’s important to know what they need especially since they can’t talk for themselves. In my household I have a yard that my dogs stay outside for the majority of the day. When bringing in new dogs, I will keep your dog/s indoors and take care of their needs at all times with me so in the case they’re not used to other pups I have a barrier.
“Breauna is the best! I am SO grateful that Breauna was not only available and responsive to a last minute request, but was also super supportive and chill when I was trying to frantically find someone to care for my dog. While my dog is chill, he has very bad separation anxiety and cannot be left alone. On top of that, he was getting over a cough and couldn’t be around other dogs. I am grateful that Breauna was able to care for my special boy with such care and ease! Would recommend to anyone seeking care for their fur baby! Will definitely book again next time I am by base!”

“Katherine was so amazing! She is very kind and gentle with my senior cat Benny. Benny warmed up to her and went in for some pets. Katherine is very reliable, communicative and professional. I was able to relax on my vacation knowing that Katherine was watching Benny after our meet and greet. I would book Katherine again!”

“Danielle has been absolutely wonderful! We first met her for a meet & greet earlier this week before booking our first drop-in, and right away we felt comfortable with her. She’s so kind, and you can genuinely tell how much she loves and cares for animals. Today she came by for an hour to let Shane and Parker out for a potty break, and she went above and beyond by spending extra time with them. We really appreciated that and loved knowing our boys were getting some extra attention and company while we were away. We’re so thankful we found Danielle and feel completely comfortable having her care for our dogs. We’ll definitely be booking with her again! ❤️🐾”

“She’s the best pet sitter I’ve ever had!! Amazing personality and truly loves animals and puts her all into making them feel comfortable away from home. She updated me every chance she got and it made me feel peace of mind about where my cat was and what he’s up to. My cat is usually shy and afraid around new people but immediately warmed up to her on Day 2! Lynna is very flexible and punctual as well which was nice. Definitely recommend her as your pet sitter!!”

I felt completely comfortable leaving Felix in her care, and I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a kind, trustworthy, and caring pet sitter.”

About: I have been a life long dog lover. I grew up on a ranch with many animals which is where my love if animals started. I have always been the go-to person for friends and families who need help dog sitting while they are away. I have experience and background clearance through Riverside County Sheriffs Animal Services as a volunteer and dog foster. When your pet is in my care, they will be treated as my own with love and structure. I am a full time teleworker. I am home with my own dog daily. I am able to tend to the dog’s needs anytime and regularly take short lunch walks to manage energy. I have a fenced yard and multiple kennels in the home, if needed. I prefer to have dogs that can be comfortable in the space without being in a kennel, but it is available if the pup prefers a kennel. If I am caring for the pet in another home, regular check-ins in a scheduled basis.

Zoe immediately felt comfortable with Winnie — she played with her and even laid next to her during their time together, which says a lot! Winnie provided regular updates, which gave me great peace of mind. I would absolutely love to have Winnie watch Zoe again whenever I’m not able to. Highly recommend!”

Your dog will be cared for, talked to, spoiled with affection, and treated like family. I’m a retired PE teacher who’s home daily, which means your dog gets my full attention and care all day long.

I treat every dog like part of the family and make sure they get all the love, attention, and spoiling they deserve. ❤️

About: Pets are family, and I know that firsthand! I’ve been around dogs my entire life and couldn’t imagine it any other way. Growing up, we had two energetic and lovable miniature schnauzers, Shaggy and Betty, who brought so much joy to our home. After they passed, I adopted my sweet girl, Cali, two years ago. She’s my adventure buddy—we go on daily walks and runs, and she keeps me on my toes! I’m friendly, active, and caring, and I know how important it is to have someone trustworthy looking after your pets when you’re away.

I can’t wait to meet you and your pets and give them all the love and attention they deserve! Since I work fully remote, I have the flexibility to incorporate pet care into my daily routine. My own dog, Cali, is a big part of my day—we go on morning and evening walks, and I take regular breaks to give her attention, play, or just check in. This setup allows me to provide consistent care, whether it’s feeding, walking, or just giving pets the love and attention they need. I can easily adjust my schedule to accommodate drop-ins, walks, or extended stays, ensuring your pets are well cared for while you’re away! Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or my client’s home, my priority is making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved. In my home, I provide a pet-friendly environment with plenty of playtime, walks, and cuddle sessions. I follow their usual routine as closely as possible to minimize stress. In a client’s home, I respect their space and their pet’s established routine. I make sure to follow all instructions regarding feeding, exercise, medications (if needed), and any special requests. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or just providing companionship, I always ensure that pets receive the care and attention they deserve. My goal is to make them feel at ease while their owners are away!

About: I've been around pets my whole life including cats, dogs, and reptiles. I've previously fosterd cats and I currently have my own cat and dog. I do not currently have a job so my availability is pretty wide open. I also do not have a car and cannot drive so I will be walking or biking depending on the weather. I can wake up as early as 6am and stay out as long as 9pm. I can work any day of the week however. I care for my cat and dog by changing the litter box and scooping when necessary, scooping and picking up dog poop. I give them both food and water and bathe and groom when needed. I also walk my dog about twice a week because it's too hot to go everyday. I will also play with them with toys. Regarding your animals, I can walk your dog, (or cat) to wherever you'd like, for however long you want. I will pick up poop if you provide me with bags. I can control small and medium dogs, larger dogs too since my dog is a large dog, but I do better with smaller animals. If you have a cat or other animal you want me to sit with for the day, I can scoop litter and feed them according to your choosing. I am friendly with animals and will not do anything to your pet that you do not permit.
About: More than just pet care — Because Every Dog Deserves a Little Extra Love, Comfort & Care!!!♥️🐾 Animals have always had a special place in my heart. My friends, family, and even people who don’t know me well often tell me, “You’re such an animal whisperer!” because they notice how naturally animals trust me and feel comfortable around me. I’ve always believed that pets are more than just animals — they are family, and they deserve to feel loved, safe, and cared for even when their humans are away. As a lifelong dog owner with over 19 years of experience caring for my own dogs, I understand the trust it takes to leave your furry family member with someone else. I will care for your pet with the same love, patience, and attention I would want someone to give my own. My goal is for your pup to feel happy, comfortable, and loved while you’re away — and for you to have peace of mind knowing they’re in caring hands. I recently graduated from dental school and am currently waiting for my official license to arrive before starting work. Because of this, I have a lot of free time right now and would love to spend it caring for dogs, one of my absolute favorite and most loving creatures! My schedule is very flexible throughout the week. As a recent dental graduate, I bring a high level of responsibility, care, and attention to detail when looking after pets. I provide a safe, clean, and loving environment for your dogs, ensuring they get plenty of attention, affection, and proper care while in my supervision.

As a school district worker I am required to do background checks and fingerprints to be a teacher, I understand having a stranger take care of your dog can be stressful but with this knowledge I hope I can ease some of your minds. As a dog owner it’s only essential to give your dog attention, interaction and above all, patience. Dogs like playing, walking or just chilling with their owners and those things vary between dogs! Some have way more energy than other dogs and it’s important to know what they need especially since they can’t talk for themselves. In my household I have a yard that my dogs stay outside for the majority of the day. When bringing in new dogs, I will keep your dog/s indoors and take care of their needs at all times with me so in the case they’re not used to other pups I have a barrier.
About: I have a deep love and respect for every pet I care for. I adopted a sick puppy, and through patience and nurturing, he has blossomed into a beloved member of my family. This experience has taught me the profound bond that can develop between a pet and their caregiver, highlighting the importance of kindness and understanding in every interaction. I’ve also gained experience by showing care and compassion to animals in need around me, making sure they feel safe and comfortable. Each animal has its own unique personality and needs, and I strive to create a warm and welcoming environment for them all. My commitment to treating every pet with compassion ensures they feel loved and secure while in my care. I work remotely as a freelancer, which gives me the flexibility to integrate pet care into my daily routine seamlessly. This allows me plenty of time to spend with furry friends, playing, cuddling, and ensuring they receive the love and attention they deserve. My schedule enables me to provide a nurturing and engaging environment, ensuring that every pet feels comfortable and cared for throughout the day. When caring for pets in my home or a client's home, I prioritize their safety and comfort above all else. I follow their food schedule diligently to ensure they maintain a healthy routine. Engaging with pets through playtime and interactive activities is essential, as it keeps them stimulated and happy. Since I do not have pets of my own, I can provide a safe and distraction-free environment for them. Living in an apartment allows me to easily take them for walks outside in green areas, where they can explore and enjoy some fresh air. If needed, I can safely crate pets to provide them with a secure space to relax. My home is a welcoming environment filled with love and attention, ensuring every pet feels safe and at ease. Building trust is key, and I take the time to understand each pet's unique personality and needs, creating a positive experience for both them and their owners.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was little. My parents own a farm where we own 5 German shepherds, one chihuahua and one old Labrador. We also gave birth to 20 puppies from 2 of our German shepherd a year ago where we took care of them and kept them strong and healthy with our remedies. Our Labrador has past 14 years of age and looks very healthy and happy. I love having dogs and taking care of them. Pet care will fit in my daily routine perfectly because I love dogs. I love hanging out with them it gives me peace and comfort. Taking breaks and looking after them is inbuilt in me since I was little so anything related to dogs will always make me happy. I will take care of the clients pers in their home by their own rules. If they have set ground rules for their pets I will follow them strictly. I understand that every pet owner has special ground rules for their pets so it is my duty to respect them and follow them as per their request.

“Renea is awesome! She walked my dog a few times. She responds quickly and is very attentive. It is clear she is great with pets. My dog is anxious when he meets new people but he warmed up to Renea very quickly. I highly recommend Renea and will be reaching out to her again in the future for any dog walking needs. Thanks!”

“Kat was amazing when it came to communicating before and during my dogs stay with her. She is very professional & kind. Would definitely recommend her to anyone who needs any dog sitting services. FIVE starts”
“Emily and Sam are phenomenal. They have a great family setting and environment for our dog. They sent many pictures during our dog’s stay and I was able to see our dog was loved, well cared for, happy, and felt at home. I wouldn’t go anywhere else to have our dog boarded after having this wonderful experience.”
“Meena was great! Taking care of Milo 🥰 She provided him love and care Milo is 1.5 years old, he usually gets nervous around strangers., but Meena was awesome to ease him up in no time. We appreciate that Meena kept us updated while we were away. Thank you, Meena🥰”
“We left our dog for a week with Nutan and she had the best time ever! We got plenty of pictures, and we knew how well she was taken care of. We will gladly leave our pup here anytime we have to go out of town:)”
“I was really nervous about leaving my dog for boarding, but April made the whole experience so much easier. From the start, she was warm, professional, and clearly loves animals. She even sent me a video while I was away, which helped ease my mind and showed me how happy and well-cared-for my dog was. I truly appreciated the communication and care she provided. I highly recommend April and will definitely be using her services again!”
“Martin and his son were excellent. Communication was consistent, and they kept us updated with pictures, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. It was clear our dogs were being cared for with the same level of attention and affection we would give them ourselves. Our dogs came back happy, relaxed, and clearly had a great time — especially being able to interact with their dogs as well. Martin and his son were responsive, reliable, and genuinely caring. We’re very grateful they were available on a weekend and would absolutely trust them again.”
“Absolutely ideal. I think my dogs enjoyed their night away from home as much as we enjoyed our get-away. Parnian sent so many pictures of our dogs lounging, eating and playing. I feel like she loved them like her own dogs. I hope they get the chance to stay with her again. Highly recommend!”
“Darryl & Janice went above and beyond, truly exceeded expectations! This was our first time ever leaving our dogs with someone and our first time using Rover. They took the time to explain to us how it worked, reassured us with our concerns, they were patient and understanding! But the cherry on top that made this experience AMAZING was the report cards, certificates and bow ties they gave Zeus and Boo! They made this experience feel like they were staying at grandma and grandpas house and were spoiled! Thank you for your kindness and caring for our babies we will absolutely be returning!”

“Couldn't have asked for a better sitter to take care of my furr baby! Dorcas is so sweet & patient. Did not hesitate to care for my female husky considering that my dog needs to be given medication twice a day. She would send updates on the daily with pictures & my furr baby looked so happy. Definitely a huge relief that she was in good hands. Will forever book Dorcas as long as I need to. (:”
“Breauna is the best! I am SO grateful that Breauna was not only available and responsive to a last minute request, but was also super supportive and chill when I was trying to frantically find someone to care for my dog. While my dog is chill, he has very bad separation anxiety and cannot be left alone. On top of that, he was getting over a cough and couldn’t be around other dogs. I am grateful that Breauna was able to care for my special boy with such care and ease! Would recommend to anyone seeking care for their fur baby! Will definitely book again next time I am by base!”

“Juan was amazing and flexible… I really appreciated his service and that of Rover. It was my first time using the app and saved me in a pinch. I had to fly and found Juan who was available last minute and came through. My brother dipped off and picked up the dog and said nothing but good things about Juan. Thanks buddy… definitely recommend and will be using him and Rover in the future.”
“Jeanne took amazing care of my dog, Bruno, and I’m so grateful. She treated him like her own and made me feel completely at ease. I especially appreciated how she kept me updated, even when I was busy and couldn’t always respond. I would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her!”
“Megan was awesome! My puppy loved her and her dogs. When we came to pick up our puppy, she didn’t want to leave. We were in a pinch trying to find someone last minute who could watch our crazy energetic puppy and Megan was more than willing to help us out. We will be booking with her in the future.”
“Adam & Franny we’re so kind and loving to my dog. They sent pictures throughout the day/daily, so I could see how my dog was doing. They will definitely be my first choice next time.”
“We had a great experience with Marissa as Jynx’s dog sitter over the holiday. She communicated with us and made sure we knew how Jynx was doing. Jynx can be sensitive to loud noises, and Marissa was incredibly attentive and comforting when Jynx was scared. The pictures she sent of Jynx enjoying herself were such a thoughtful touch and reassured us that she was happy and well cared for. We would happily book Marissa again and highly recommend her.”
“Alexandra was amazing! She was super flexible with a last minute request and very communicative during the day with photos and updates. We felt like our dog was very well cared for 😊”
