“Mark and his son were really awesome with our dog, Thor. We booked a 10 day stay, and Mark provided consistent updates on how Thor was doing. They walked him regularly and played with him often, and they have a great home with a back yard Thor could enjoy. I felt comfortable and confident leaving my fur baby with them!”

“I recently broke my wrist (strong arm) and live alone with my many pets. It was difficult to care for my pets. Erica agreed to help me with feeding and caring for my 2 dogs and 8 former street cats. One of my cats is diabetic and needs insulin shots twice daily. Erica came to my house twice a day, 12 hours apart, for almost 2 months like clockwork. She was so kind, gentle and dependable. She clearly knows and loves animals. One night my diabetic cat was having a hard time with his diabetes. Erica stuck around and helped me find an emergency vet and then helped me get him in his carrier, which is quite a task! She truly cares about animals and her experience working with them is evident. It was such a feeling of relief to know that Erica helped me through this tough time. I completely trust her and will definitely hire her again for pet care. She is the best!”

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: I have extensive, hands-on experience caring for a wide variety of animals, ranging from household pets to farm and ranch animals. I grew up on a 7-acre property where I was constantly surrounded by animals, which gave me a strong foundation in animal care, behavior, and responsibility. I also spent time as a competitive horseback rider, which provided additional experience working closely with horses and other large animals. Alongside farm experience, I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and breeds, as well as cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, and other small animals. I currently have two large senior dogs—a Boxer and a Shepherd/Husky mix—who I’ve raised since they were puppies, giving me experience with everything from early training to senior care. I’m familiar with the unique care needs of smaller animals as well. I also have a two-year-old daughter who is very gentle and animal-loving, and she enjoys being around and helping with daily pet care and walks when appropriate. Because she will often be with me, I kindly ask that you let me know if your pets are comfortable around children so I can ensure a safe and positive experience for everyone involved. My goal is always to provide safe, loving, and reliable care so you can feel completely at ease while you’re away, knowing your pets are treated like family. My schedule is flexible since I am a stay-at-home mom caring for my two-year-old daughter. This allows me to provide consistent attention and care throughout the day, with availability for morning, afternoon, and some evening visits depending on your pet’s needs. Because I am home most of the time, I am able to adjust my routine to accommodate feeding schedules, walks, check-ins, and any special care instructions your pet may have. I prioritize reliability and communication, so you’ll always know when I’m arriving and how your pet is doing. While I do have my daughter with me, I am intentional about only accepting bookings where I can ensure a safe, calm, and positive experience for both your pet and your home. Whether caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, my top priorities are safety, trust, and creating a calm, comfortable environment. I make sure each pet’s routine is followed as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, litter box care, and any special instructions. I take time to understand each animal’s personality and needs so I can provide care that feels familiar and stress-free for them. In client homes, I treat the space with the same respect I would my own—keeping everything clean, secure, and exactly as I found it. I am reliable, communicative, and always mindful of both the pet’s comfort and the owner’s peace of mind. In my own home, pets are cared for in a structured, calm environment alongside my two senior dogs. I maintain a clean and organized space where animals can feel safe and relaxed. My goal is to build trust with both pets and their owners by providing consistent, attentive, and compassionate care every time.

About: I have never known a life without a pet of some kind. Having animals, I learned very early on the importance of responsibility as well as empathy for the feelings and lives of others. Just as we pay attention to human body language for cues, the same standard comes into play for animals. Because they can’t speak like we do, it is important to be attentive as well as respectful of their needs. I have 10+ years of experience from not only my own array of pets (dogs, geckos, horses, chickens, ratties, cats, etc), but also from my main line of work. I have been an in home nursing assistant for 5 years, beginning with taking care of my great grandmother and her dog in her home which blossomed into the career I know and love today. My integrity and compassion for both animals and humans has led to many opportunities for me. From walking dogs for neighbors and friends, grooming assistance, occasional medical assistance, Overnight sitting/boarding, and even small excursions for enrichment, all the way down to childcare in some cases. I am a child at heart and with animals, my spirit is at play. they bring just as much joy to my life as I hope to bring to theirs. I’d love to treat your furrever baby like my own while you’re away 🤍 I am currently taking a break from my human patients and putting more emphasis on building my animal care portfolio. I’d like to become a pet sitter/walker full time while back in school. I am able to provide A well enriched and attentive home with lots of toys and attention to offer. There is a park less than 5 minutes walking distance as well that I’d be happy to take your pet to visit for potty breaks and play, should that be okay with you. I don’t particularly like to crate dogs, however, if that is their safe space or they happen to be crate trained that’s no issue at all/is appreciated if they do not do well being left alone for an hour or so at a time. Communication is key and you will always be contacted should anything of concern arise.

“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!”

I love to do lightweight training as well. I recently retired after 20 years in the Navy. With no more deployments or underways, I have plenty of time to walk and spend time with your pets. I have a fenced yard and 4 friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company. I can also crate if needed as I have multiple crates in different sizes.

About: Hello ! I have had dogs my whole life, small, medium and large dogs of all different kinds of breeds. The different dogs in my photos are dogs I’ve walked, boarded and pet sat for. I have boarded many different dogs before but I'm really eager to board for other families and their dogs on Rover. I worked at a veterinary clinic in San Diego so I have some knowledge on dogs, medical conditions (allergies, behaviors, etc.) and how to treat them. I'm a very easy going person and dogs are definitely a passion of mine. I will honor every request or concern for any type of service. Your dog and I will enjoy all the time spent if it's in your home or mine or simply on a walk. Whatever service you need I'm here for you and your dog ! Thank you so much ! :) I work from home full time so I’m able to have flexibility with my pet scheduling. Being home full time helps me be with your pet at every moment and monitor them with care. I have a fenced yard and one senior dog. He is very tiny and doesn’t give much attention to other animals (pretends they’re not there lol) he also has no teeth :)

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 have cared for dogs since I was about 7 years old. I’ve owned or have pet sat for all ages, sizes, and breeds. From puppies, to 15 year old doggos, I’ve got your back! I am currently a student, so making a couple of pup friends sounds like a great way to spend time outside, get active, and be helpful! I have a fenced yard and two cats. I always walk dogs on a leash, on the sidewalk, in well lit, pet-friendly/safe areas. I have multiple dog parks nearby that I would be open to taking your dog to (upon request only).

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.

I've had 2 dogs for 18 years and still have my one mini-Aussie and we frequently go on hikes and road trips. I'm also versed in a little grooming having done it my own Aussie. I currently work full-time on the weekends so weekdays are my main free schedule. I typically go on hikes (short or long), walks for photography, and sometimes go for a run. I believe in "leave no trace" and as an organized and neat person, I will tend to clean up for others ensuring that everything is well kept as my way of showing respect for other's homes. I will follow any routines and guidelines for your pet and also get frequent notifications on their status along with professional pictures (if requested). I can also offer to take your pet on hikes with me as I tend to go frequently. As an employee of an animal hospital, if any accidents were to happen I can take it upon myself to take them with me to the hospital.

I can’t imagine doing anything else for work! I just get dogs and they get me. I have two big babies of my own. I am available for dog grooming needs upon request. I like to do meet and greets with dogs/cats before making set plans just in case but I understand sometimes reservations are last minute. As an animal lover I understand that sometimes dogs are picky about people and it could take awhile for a dog to get used to somebody new. I’m all about animals. They run my life. I like to make myself available for my clients and their pets as soon as they need me. Im pretty open to whatever the client needs both in my home and yours. I do require that your animals are friendly with cats/dogs as I have both if we’re doing over night stays.

About: Ever since I was little I dreamed of owning a doggy hotel. But growing up I realized most doggy hotels are caged or crated the majority of their stays. I would never like my own dog to be caged in all day and only allowed a certain amount of outdoor time, so I started pet sitting at home! I have cared for my friends dogs for over a decade now. I enjoy experiencing different breeds and truly understand them. I have a deep tub for them to splash around in on hot days and a twin mattress in the garage for them to snuggle up in at night! Not a luxurious hotel I dream about but we will get there soon! Pet care is easy for me! I wake up and they are my first priority. I watch them all eat during feeding time and make sure no one is bullied out of their food. And separate those that need to be fed alone. I work full-time from home, which gives me the flexibility to provide plenty of attention and companionship to your pets throughout the day. Because I’m home while working, I’m able to maintain your pet’s routine, provide regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, meals, and lots of love and attention. My flexible work-from-home schedule also makes me a great option for house sitting, as your pets won’t have to spend long periods of time alone. I can be there to keep them company and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you're away. At My Home Your pet’s comfort, safety, and activity level are always important to me. Pets in my care have opportunities to spend time in both the backyard and garage, where I spend much of my time with them. This can be a great fit for dogs who enjoy being active or need extra outdoor time throughout the day. Most guests have access to the backyard and garage while supervised, depending on their individual needs and temperament. At night, dogs typically sleep in the room with me so they have companionship and aren't left alone. Crate accommodations are also available for pets who are crate-trained or whose owners prefer that option. To help prevent food-related conflicts, dogs are separated during feeding times when necessary, allowing everyone to eat comfortably and safely. In Your Home When caring for your pets in their own home, I focus on maintaining their normal routine while giving them as much companionship and attention as they need. I enjoy keeping pets active through walks, playtime, and other physical activities appropriate for their age, energy level, and abilities. My safety Your pet's safety and well-being are always my priority. My partner may occasionally check in on me and can be available to assist if needed, helping ensure I have additional support while caring for your pets.

“Janelle did a wonderful job taking care of my two Golden Retrievers!!! They were with her all day and they were able to play and meet other dogs, and have a great time. It was so nice to receive lots of photos throughout the day to keep up with the fun too! I would definitely recommend Janelle if you ever need help with your pups too! : )”

She is super sweet and kept great communication throughout his stay, making sure to share some adorable photos of their weekend adventures together :) Luffy seemed to have a great time and was even excited to see Natalee again upon dropping him off. We highly recommend Natalee to take care of your pups and look forward to having a safe space for Luffy to stay for future vacations!”

“Monique (and her family) watched my senior kitty with chronic kidney disease. I was very concerned about him using the bathroom and being comfortable since it’s the first time I boarded him anywhere. She was incredibly helpful and did a meet & greet with us to see how he would do. We discussed the best set-up for him ahead of time and she really put my worries at ease. She sent me plenty of updates about his situation and pictures of him. He warmed up to them way quicker than I thought he would! He was incredibly comfortable with them after about a day. They really treated him like he was a part of the family!”
