This was my dog’s first time ever staying with a sitter and my first time using Rover, so I was a little nervous. She kept me updated with messages and photos throughout the stay, which gave me peace of mind. When my flight was delayed, she was very flexible and gladly extended the booking. Leo was in great hands, and I’d definitely book with her again. Highly recommend!

Taylor and Andrew spoiled Rafi! They gave her extra treats, made sure she ate, gave her run of their home and yard, took her for walks, and gave her affection. They were good about providing updates and sent photos. Rafi was with them for 2 wks., and when I picked her up I witnessed her seek attention and affection from them, she interacted well with their dogs, and had no initial interest in my return. I recommend them and will definitely use them again. I couldn’t be more pleased. Thank you!

My wife and I are were so pleased with the care Berenice provided for our 5 month old puppy Benji. She kept us updated with messages about his feeding times and sent us lots of pictures while we were out enjoying our wedding anniversary. As a first time dog owner and our first time using this Rover app, our experience was phenomenal and we felt blessed to have found such a loving and caring pet sitter for our puppy. Berenice is truly dedicated and passionate with the care she offers. We will definitely use her service next time we vacation down in San Diego. Our dog already misses her lol. We highly recommend her 125%

Kaitlin and Verle took great care of Clover again! When Clover arrived at their house for this stay, she was SO excited to see them and ran inside to play immediately. She didn’t even look back at us when we left. We’re so happy and reassured by how much she loves staying with them. Kaitlin and Verle were very communicative and flexible also. We have already booked Clover’s next stay with them for our next trip.

My dog isn’t much for people and he was giving Savannah hugs on his way out. He didn’t want to leave! Hannah was beyond flexible with our flight delays and I greatly appreciated it!! As long as Savannah is willing to accept us as client again I don’t see myself trusting anyone else.

Autumn was absolutely outstanding with my Pups! One of them was rescued off the street 4 months ago and is very fearful around new people and places, but he had such an amazing time and didn't want to leave by the time we had to pick them up. They loved her so much that I honestly felt a little sad about taking them away from her. I feel like that just highlights how phenomenal she was. 10/5 stars!! Hope to be back next time!

Erlinda was quick to respond, her daughter was easy to work with, and our dog was well taken care of. We’re grateful they were able to help us out last minute and would consider using them again.

Our Frenchie stayed with Adriana and Cameron while we were in NYC for the week. She had the best time. We got 1-3 videos a day of her running around and claiming a stake on their couch :) They accommodated her needing to eat raw food and taking up space in their fridge. They were responsive and helpful and very timely. It was our first time using Rover and we had a great experience.

About: I absolutely love taking care of my dogs and I treat any pets just as I do my own. I was especially drawn to Rover after long-term dog sitting these 2 wonderful Dobermans, it made me want to create even more special bonds just like that. I am genuinely so happy spending time around animals… I have always taken up dog sitting opportunities for family or friends and now I would like to extend my love out to your pets as well!🩷🫂 I am dedicated to giving your pup the best care possible. I am super flexible and currently offering dog walking, drop in visits, and house sitting during the week and on weekends!! Check my calendar for specific availability. I am used to incorporating 1-3 dogs + a cat into a daily routine (for several years). I really enjoy long walks and playing outside or even napping with my dogs. I have unconditional love ready to give to any pet… you are doing me a favor by allowing me the opportunity to get to know and love your fur baby🥹🫶 I will always make sure that your pet and I are both respectful of house rules while still having fun. I do try to work on small behavioral training such as sit and stay on a daily basis. I will always be on top of it to make sure your dog stays on schedule and give endless cuddles so they stay happy as well.

We were fortunate to have Trinity come to our house each morning for almost 3 weeks to care for our two cats. It was best to keep the cats at home and comfortable in their routines rather than traveling to a facility. Trinity checked in each morning and sent pics to me from each visit and that helped put me at ease. All went well and when we travel again, I wouldn’t hesitate to contact River and ask for Trinity again. Thanks Trinity!

Jordan was amazing! Our cat was clearly very well attended to, and it showed. Never before have we gone on a trip and NOT been violently accosted upon entering our home. Ginger is usually not satisfied until she has drawn my blood, and she is instead purring and headbutting me lovingly. Only affection from this fuzzy demon, which means she was well looked after.

I’ve pet sit for neighbors and friends since i was 16, watching dogs and cats of various sizes, energies, and behaviors. I’m available for overnight stays if you’re headed out of town, or a drop by visit if you need someone to feed and play with your baby while away!

About: I have taken care of dogs and cats since I learned how to wash dishes! I’ve walked dogs and puppies from 10lbs to larger dogs of 120lbs + When I spend time with animals, even in short amounts of times, special bonds are formed. Both parties just have a blast to be honest. I’ve wanted to be a Veterinarian my whole life but as things have changed this is the closest thing to it. I hope you’ll choose me as your trusted sitter! I’m currently in the military Active Duty Shore. I do drop in visits around lunch time, and I’m up early in the morning for early morning walks and feedings before work starts on weekdays. After 4pm we play, go for walks, eat and play again. On weekends I’m available whenever. Sundays mornings are exceptions, being that I attend church. I only take care of crate trained animals in my home. Animals who are potty trained, and nothing bigger than 25lbs. I do live in a gated community with plenty of room to walk and run around outdoors. I also have a spacious living room and dining room area with no furniture. Spacious for small animals, their crates, and their zoomies! I do not have any pets or children. When it comes to clients homes, I clean when needed. And I stick to whatever schedule I’ve been given.

Madison & Moses are awesome! So easy to communicate with and both have a great, calm energy that was perfect for helping my shy, anxious, rescue pittie feel right at home. It’s clear they’re both well-versed in dog behavior and I appreciate that they met my dog right where she was at. They had no issues giving her the time, space and patience needed to open up in her own time - it made all the difference. Thankful to have found them!

My little man Brady absolutely loved his time with Lucy and Stella. Huge thanks to Taylor and Andrew I can’t say enough good things! Being able to be absent without the stress of his well being is priceless. This was our first time using Rover and couldn’t be happier. We will absolutely be back sooner than later!

About: Hi! My name is Isabelle. I’ve been dog sitting for friends, family, and neighbors for at least 10 years! I miss having dogs around so I will love yours like my own. I work from home full time and can easily take lots of breaks to let your dog out! I also take 1-2 long walks a day. Feel free to bring their bed and any toys your dog may want to have with them. I don’t have a yard but plenty of space to walk them around.

About: Growing up I have always had dogs on the property and consider them part of the family. I believe a well trained dog is loved by its owner. I am an animal lover who want to help those who have a hard time with placement. I enjoy spending time with other people's pets because I am unable to have one for myself at this time. I am currently retired so I have time to spend with them daily. I can take them to parks, beach, lakes, etc. Depends on breed and how active they are. I have aquariums, reptiles and my extended family has dogs that I am frequently around. I have had exotic, elderly, injured and sick pets in my care. I foster for the Humane Society periodically and adjust my home according to the pets needs.

About: For the past 14 years, my world revolved around my dog, Zuri. Sadly, she passed away in April, and while I’m not ready to welcome another dog into my life just yet, I realized how much I miss spending time with them. Caring for dogs has never felt like work to me. I’m naturally attentive, patient, and deeply attuned to animals. I tend to notice the little things; when a dog needs a slower pace, extra reassurance, more water, a sniff break, or simply someone calm to help them feel safe. Zuri taught me that every walk is the highlight of a dog’s day, not just another task to check off a list. Whether your dog is energetic, shy, anxious, or a senior who needs a gentler pace, I’ll care for them with the same love, presence, and respect I gave my own. I know how much trust it takes to leave your best friend in someone else’s care, and I don’t take that responsibility lightly. My goal is for you to feel completely at ease, knowing your dog is safe, understood, and genuinely loved while we’re together. I’m also available for boarding and overnight care, either in my home or yours. I’m home throughout the day, so your dog will have plenty of companionship and attention. I have experience caring for senior dogs, administering medications when needed, and understanding that every dog has their own personality, pace, and emotional needs. I have a flexible schedule and genuinely enjoy being active, so dog walks fit naturally into my daily routine. Walking has been an important part of my own life for years, and after losing my beloved dog of 14 years a few months ago, spending time with dogs has become something that brings me joy and healing. I’m reliable, communicative, and committed to making sure your dog gets the exercise, enrichment, and attention they deserve. I understand that trusting someone with your dog is a big decision because I know what it’s feels like to love a dog like family. I always prioritize safety by following your dog’s routine, using secure leash handling, paying close attention to their body language, and adapting to their individual personality and energy level. Whether your dog is playful, shy, anxious, or a senior who needs a slower pace, I’ll care for them with patience, kindness, and respect. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can feel confident they’re in good hands.

About: Hi! I'm new to the Rover app, but I'm not new to caring for animals. I've always had a natural connection with animals and they seem to gravitate toward me wherever I go. I’m a stay at home mom of a 3 and 5 year old so I am always home and always active and my fiance is home while I run errands. We have a decent size fenced yard where your animal can get some energy out while staying safe. I truly believe animals are family, and I care for every pet as if they were my own child. I'm highly communicative, reliable, and genuinely empathetic. I pay close attention to each pet's unique personality and needs, making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you're away. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, playtime, or just having a calm companion, I'll make sure they receive the care and attention they deserve. I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your furry family member. That's why I'll keep you updated with plenty of photos, videos, and messages throughout each visit, so you always know how your pet is doing and can enjoy those special moments even while you're apart. If you're a busy family looking for a dependable dog walker or pet sitter who will treat your pet with patience, kindness, and lots of love, I'd be honored to help. I can't wait to meet you and your best friend! I am a mom of two girls. I have a flexible schedule and I’m willing to do whatever’s necessary to make sure your pet is taken care of. I’m a hair stylist on weekends and I love when people bring their dogs to their appointments. Rover is great way for me to play with animals, get some exercise, and make some extra income. Just message me 😊 I make sure the dog goes outside to use the bathroom . Make sure the food and water bowl is always fresh and full. Engage and play with your pet. Chill, lay down, and watch tv together. I absolutely love playing tug of war with dogs so make sure to pack that toy in their overnight bag LOL. If I were to come to your house I would let you know exactly when I enter and when I leave and give you updates on your pet .

About: Hey! My name is Chris… also known as Cherry’s Dad. I am very enthusiastic about people’s pets, have had dogs my entire life and will continue to be a dog person forever and ever. Fun fact: my mom owns a dog grooming shop in LA! I’ve worked a lot in the shop and have handled literally hundreds of pet dogs. After 15 years in corporate, I’m now a Business owner with flexibility in my schedule. I walk my own pet 3 times a day, and frequently take breaks to complete my put duties! At home, I pay attention to the dogs signals and adjust accordingly - are they happy? Nervous? Thirsty? Whining? I speak pretty good dog by listening. During walks, I never allow strangers, especially children, to approach someone’s dog I am in control of who isn’t mine.

About: Hi, my name is Bree! For as long as I can remember, I have always felt a strong sense of connection, compassion, and care for animals. Currently, my only pet is a cat, but I grew up with chihuahuas, a bird, and have pet sat for many friends and family members. After moving away from my hometown, I missed hanging out with all type of animals, so I decided to start pet sitting again. I love all animals, but I feel most comfortable and confident with cats and smaller or lower energy dogs. I am also happy to care for other animals, like birds, fish, and reptiles. I have experience administering oral and topical medications. I’m an excellent communicator and will tailor my care to your pets’ needs. I have a strong attention to detail and will love and care for your fur babies like they are my own. I am self-employed and work primarily from home, so my schedule is very flexible on both weekdays and weekends. On days when I work outside the home, I can drop in before and/or after my other responsibilities. I treat all homes with respect and cleanliness, and will follow your instructions for care. My goal is to make your pet feel safe and loved in your absence.

About: I am not a professional dog sitter or walker but I do have a dog of my own as of 2021. One of the best decisions of my life. My little furball, Jayla. Many friends and family have dogs from small to big that’ll let me care for them as if they were one of my children. They are fur babies after all! Walking, playing, feedings, and bathroom time become a pawsitive routine in my care and I’m here to help when or wherever needed. I work a part-time schedule, which gives me flexibility to fit pet care into my day. I’m able to work around my job and other responsibilities while still providing reliable and attentive care. I’m happy to coordinate with clients to find times that work well for both of us. When it comes to walking your dogs, or dropping in on your cats, I always make sure to bring their leash, some treats if allowed, poop bags and to be SAFE, we will cross from other animals, children or adults. You have to be prepared! Exploring the routes is a great way to bond and keep them active! I will definitely know the signs of your furbaby wanting relax or be given space. If you have a set feeding schedule, you would like me use before or after walks I will provide that service.

About: I have taken care of dogs and cats since I learned how to wash dishes! I’ve walked dogs and puppies from 10lbs to larger dogs of 120lbs + When I spend time with animals, even in short amounts of times, special bonds are formed. Both parties just have a blast to be honest. I’ve wanted to be a Veterinarian my whole life but as things have changed this is the closest thing to it. I hope you’ll choose me as your trusted sitter! I’m currently in the military Active Duty Shore. I do drop in visits around lunch time, and I’m up early in the morning for early morning walks and feedings before work starts on weekdays. After 4pm we play, go for walks, eat and play again. On weekends I’m available whenever. Sundays mornings are exceptions, being that I attend church. I only take care of crate trained animals in my home. Animals who are potty trained, and nothing bigger than 25lbs. I do live in a gated community with plenty of room to walk and run around outdoors. I also have a spacious living room and dining room area with no furniture. Spacious for small animals, their crates, and their zoomies! I do not have any pets or children. When it comes to clients homes, I clean when needed. And I stick to whatever schedule I’ve been given.

Your pet’s well-being is always my top priority. I’m intentional in everything I do, whether it’s keeping their space clean, ensuring they’re eating well, or spending time playing and bonding. I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family, so I pride myself on being transparent, reliable, and trustworthy every step of the way. Let’s make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and happy while you're away! Pet care fits perfectly into my daily routine because I work from home and have a very flexible schedule. This allows me to be available throughout the day for walks, check-ins, playtime, and care. As long as I have at least 24 hours' notice, I can easily accommodate most requests. My partner and I are currently planning our wedding, and taking on pet care is not only a way to help support that goal but also something I truly enjoy. I love spending time with animals, and I treat every pet like I would my own with love, attention, and respect. I'm committed to being dependable, communicative, and making sure your pets are happy and safe while you're away. When caring for pets in a client's home, I always aim to make them feel safe, loved, and comfortable in their own environment. I follow all care instructions closely, from feeding and medication to walks and playtime, and I am very mindful of each pet’s unique needs and personality. I keep their area clean, make sure they have fresh water, and spend quality time with them so they feel calm and cared for while you are away. I also respect your home as if it were my own and will always communicate clearly about how your pet is doing. My goal is to provide the same level of care and attention I give my own pets.

About: I've had a lifelong passion for working with dogs and cats, and I've spent the past eight years dedicated to the pet industry. Over the years, I've cared for dogs of all sizes and temperaments, from puppies to seniors. Whether it's feeding, potty walks, playtime, or grooming, I have extensive experience and a deep love for caring for furry friends. I’m excited to share my expertise with your pet! Pet care fits perfectly into my daily routine as I have an open schedule and am not working full-time elsewhere. This allows me to provide flexible and attentive care to your pet, ensuring they get the attention, playtime, and routine they need throughout the day! In my home, I create a comfortable, pet-friendly environment where your furry friend can feel safe and relaxed. I ensure they have plenty of space to play, rest, and enjoy their time with me. I also follow any specific instructions you provide to make sure their routine stays consistent. When caring for pets in your home, I prioritize their comfort and well-being by maintaining their usual routines, whether it’s feeding, potty breaks, or playtime. I provide plenty of attention, love, and care while ensuring your home remains safe and tidy. My goal is to offer a stress-free experience for both you and your pet!

This was my dog’s first time ever staying with a sitter and my first time using Rover, so I was a little nervous. She kept me updated with messages and photos throughout the stay, which gave me peace of mind. When my flight was delayed, she was very flexible and gladly extended the booking. Leo was in great hands, and I’d definitely book with her again. Highly recommend!

Taylor and Andrew spoiled Rafi! They gave her extra treats, made sure she ate, gave her run of their home and yard, took her for walks, and gave her affection. They were good about providing updates and sent photos. Rafi was with them for 2 wks., and when I picked her up I witnessed her seek attention and affection from them, she interacted well with their dogs, and had no initial interest in my return. I recommend them and will definitely use them again. I couldn’t be more pleased. Thank you!

Madison sent pictures and made sure to update me along the way and was so friendly! I was nervous to leave them but I am so thankful I found such a wonderful place for them to go. Thank you!

Kaitlin and Verle took great care of Clover again! When Clover arrived at their house for this stay, she was SO excited to see them and ran inside to play immediately. She didn’t even look back at us when we left. We’re so happy and reassured by how much she loves staying with them. Kaitlin and Verle were very communicative and flexible also. We have already booked Clover’s next stay with them for our next trip.

Cerita is a gem! So kind, so sweet and her house is great for pups that enjoy socializing with other pups and has a nice indoor/outdoor vibe for the pups to have some level of autonomy and freedom which is amazing. We would highly recommend and will use her if we come to SD again

I could not be more pleased!! Savannah is a gem! I’m a worrier and Savannah put me at ease and I could tell she cared for our dogs like they were her own. My dog isn’t much for people and he was giving Savannah hugs on his way out. He didn’t want to leave! Hannah was beyond flexible with our flight delays and I greatly appreciated it!! As long as Savannah is willing to accept us as client again I don’t see myself trusting anyone else.

Autumn was absolutely outstanding with my Pups! One of them was rescued off the street 4 months ago and is very fearful around new people and places, but he had such an amazing time and didn't want to leave by the time we had to pick them up. They loved her so much that I honestly felt a little sad about taking them away from her. I feel like that just highlights how phenomenal she was. 10/5 stars!! Hope to be back next time!

Overall, we had a good experience. They were able to accommodate our dog on very short notice, which we really appreciated. Erlinda was quick to respond, her daughter was easy to work with, and our dog was well taken care of. We’re grateful they were able to help us out last minute and would consider using them again.

Our Frenchie stayed with Adriana and Cameron while we were in NYC for the week. She had the best time. We got 1-3 videos a day of her running around and claiming a stake on their couch :) They accommodated her needing to eat raw food and taking up space in their fridge. They were responsive and helpful and very timely. It was our first time using Rover and we had a great experience.

I also appreciated Isabelle sending updates and pictures of my dog while we were away. I’ll be using Isabelle’s services again, and I highly recommend her!

She made me feel comfortable and always prioritized my pet's health and safety. I'm so thrilled I found her and will definitely be a return customer the nex time I'm in need of petcare. Do not hesitate to request her services!
