“Kun did a fantastic job as always! This is my second time leaving Blue with her and I always receive updates and see that she is getting a ton of attention and care. Definitely recommend!”
“He lives in a great community with plenty of open spaces, parks, and trails. My dog looks very happy with him. He fed, walked, and played with my dog. He also sent me photos and videos how he took care of my dog. He is a dog lover and great carer.”
“Olha was AMAZING! She took care of our dog very well and provided me with updates throughout the day. She is quick to respond and follows care instructions very well, including my dachshund’s IVDD and diet needs. She made me feel safe leaving my dog with her and will absolutely book her again! Thank you Olha for all the love and care Chai received.”
“SaeWon was incredible and the whole experience was smooth and easy. She was able to accommodate on short notice after our initial sitter plans fell through, and I was super grateful for that. Initially I was worried about Soleil staying with other dogs, but to our surprise, she got along great with the other dogs and it seems like she had a great time. She also sent us pictures and videos of them on walks and it was the cutest thing. I will definitely let her watch my dog in the future and would highly recommend it to others, it was fantastic.”
“We had a wonderful experience boarding Chester here! A big thank you to you all for taking such great care and for sending us daily updates with pictures—it really gave us peace of mind while we were away. The communication was excellent, with timely responses to all our messages. We could tell our Chester was happy and well looked after. Highly recommend and will definitely be back!”
“I cannot recommend Bennie and Jennie enough. We sent our two cats to stay with them and I have never been more satisfied with a cat sitter. Their space is very cat friendly, which my cats clearly loved for the many updates we received during their stay. One of our cats needed ear drops twice daily and they were amazing with this-giving them to her with seemingly minimal resistance based on the video and photo updates they sent for each medicine application time. It was clear the cats were comfortable and well taken care of during their stay. We will not hesitate to book again for the next time we need a cat sitter.”
“Wen was nothing short of amazing! We got update photos immediately and our pups who have pretty bad separation anxiety looked like they came back from vacation! She’s so on top of everything - medications, safety, play time and updates to us. Thank you so much! We will be using Wen in the future !”
“This was our first time leaving our fur baby at someone else's house let alone a stranger. We went through each and every review of nearby sitters and went to see Mickey for a meet and greet. She is so sweet so we decided to leave our fur baby with her for about a week. She was amazing and sent us multiple photos and videos throughout the day, which made our day! We will definitely be back when we are in need of a caring home.”
“Kevin and Sam had the BEST time, thank you so much! Sarah and Noah took such good care of our dogs and I’m sure they can’t wait to go back! Please send a special thank you to the chief dogsitter, Ian for us! We really enjoyed getting their report card.”
“I really liked Katie’s profile description and immediately after meeting her, she didn’t disappoint! You can tell off the bat - she is kind, patient, considerate, and understanding of you and your dog’s needs. She worked so well with my dog and I am happy I found Katie to help me in the future!”
“Hazel was well taken care of by Doug! He was very flexible with our drop off and pick up times. She went on plenty of walks and slept well when she got back home. I will be using Doug in the future!”
“Cie is a no-nonsense Super Nanny ⭐️ to my boy Frenchies, Patch & Rocky. They stayed with Cie for 5 nights. She took the boys on multiple walks throughout the day and let them hang out at the pool cabana!! She was very attentive to them and tried to manage their stress level on their first day. We received photos and video updates every day. They made friends, went on squirrel watch, got plenty of exercises, and most importantly, I think they were VERY well taken care of. They even got a Report Card for their stay. 😂 I think Cie Is a true dog lover and genuinely cares for the pets in her care. My frenchies came back happier than when I left them, and this is how I know they had a great time at Cie’s.”
“Allison was exceptional, warm, and empathetic. Poppy bonded with her instantly, and she cared for him with genuine affection and attention. She stayed in touch with regular updates, showed great flexibility, and even took him out shopping, which was adorable. Her kindness and empathy made the entire experience feel natural, joyful, and reassuring.”
“Rebecca was by far the best we found on Rover. We had a meet and greet before the stay with our dog, Koga, and her fun-loving puppy Hunter. During the stay, she sent daily updates with photos of Koga having a wonderful time with Hunter and the other dogs. Koga had a blast playing tug of war, wrestling, and napping with his new friends! While we were on vacation, he was having his own vacation! I almost felt like he wouldn’t want to come home. She clearly treats dogs as if they were her own and loves and cares for them. Next time we go out of town, we will definitely be asking Rebecca to take care of Koga!”
“Elaine and her family were wonderful in taking care of Rocky. Rocky also had a good time with her dog!! She sent me many pictures and kept me informed how Rocky was doing . Great communication through out the entire time. We feel very secure leaving our dog with her family. She updated Rocky's health, too. We really appreciate her family a lot. Rocky will miss them Looking forward to seeing her and her family when we have a chance to ask taking care of Rocky.”
“Short notice booking and Niloofar took care of my Harley (dog) like she was her own. Harley was able to be around her small dogs and she loved it. I was sent pictures and videos everyday as she updated me regularly. I’m sure we just found our dog whisperer and I’m so happy to have found someone I can truly trust. Do yourself and your dog a favor book with Niloofar and trust that she will take excellent care of your pup. Thank you so much we will be booking again.”
“Another wonderful stay with Parisa!!! Parisa sent me updates , photos, and videos of my baby several times a day . It is so reassuring to see my baby so relaxed and having so much fun. I even commented to my hubby that my baby may not want to come home 😁”

“Bailey took care of our senior kitty for 10 days and she was wonderful! Communication came daily with photos and update of her visit. We will book her again on our next trip!”
“It’s such a relief knowing Erin is taking care of our furry girls while we’re away. She follows all our instructions to the letter, and it’s clear our cats feel comfortable around her. She takes great care of both them and our home, we came back to everything spotless, including the kitchen (where the feeders and water fountain are) and the litter boxes. We also really appreciate all the photos she shares and the detailed Rover cards after each visit, they give us peace of mind and always make us smile. Honestly, our only worry now is making sure she’s available the next time we travel!”
“Robert went above and beyond taking care of our cats. When our apartment became over run by ants while we were gone, he was incredibly helpful in cleaning them out, getting them off our food, and ensuring the apartment stayed clean for our cats while we were gone. He also offered to come by an additional time to make sure our cats were ok and the ants were gone. None of this was expected or under the responsibilities of a Rover sitter, but it made our time away so much better knowing our home and cats were well taken care of. Thank you Robert!”
“Zi took great care of my cat while I was away! She was super friendly with communication and flexible with my plans. She sent descriptive rover cards and lots of pictures. She goes above and beyond for multi-day care, making sure that my home is in good shape too. She will be my go-to for all future bookings. Thanks Zi!”
“We were SO glad we found Erica to watch our pets while we were away. During the meet and greet we knew she would be perfect - her calm, kind, and loving demeanor was perfect for our pets. She sent pictures and updates every day, and went above and beyond to make sure our home and everything in it was well taken care of. We will definitely book her again in the future, and would recommend her to anyone searching for a pet sitter.”
About: I have trained and taken care of pets since I was a child. I grew up caring for cats and dogs. Since I have been an adult I have always trained and owned pets as well. In our family now I live with my two teen daughters, our 1 cat, and 2 small dogs. My eldest teen has worked for No Stray Left Behind for the last years and we have fostered various disabled dogs over that time period. I am currently fostering a BLIND 17 year-old Pomeranian, that requires special care. I would be the primary care-taker but my two dog-loving teen daughters would love to love on the dogs as well. The last dog I fostered had a crooked neck and shed a lot, the dog before that only had three legs, so I am very experienced with all sorts of needs and dogs. I also work from home, so it's easy for me to take them out. I currently work full-time from home, so short walks frequently throughout the day are easy. I am a very active person, so I am often at a park or beach or hiking. If the dog is permitted and capable I would love to take them along or even to the dog park. I also live across the street from a park. I do live in a 2 bedroom apt with no yard but as mentioned I have easy access to a park and work from home. There is a park literally 200 feet from across the street.
“I hired Cindy for 2 drop-in visits for my 2 dogs: a 14 y.o. & a 2 y.o. lab mix, both of whom are edgy around strangers. Cindy was on-time with all visits (including a meet-and-greet prior), communicated clearly in person and by text, and followed the instructions. She also provided pictures & brief updates at each check-in. Despite my senior dog being a cranky, old fart around strangers, Cindy improvised well when Ms. Crankypants barked at her and wouldn't cooperate about eating in her designated area, ensuring that the dogs remained safely separated during feeds. Cindy also scooped the poop, so I didn't have to when I got home. I recommend Cindy and plan to call on her again myself.”
“Ya-Chu was great! We needed a last minute drop in visit for our dog Scout and she was very communicative as well as sent photos throughout the visit. Communication all together was great! We would love to have them look after our animals again in the future.”
“Maddie did an amazing job watching my cat while I was away. She is very thoughtful and on top of things about taking care of every task that needed to be done. I enjoy receiving photos and notes from each her visit. I would recommend her to anyone who needs a reliable and cat sitter!”
“This is our first time booking with Regi. She is so easy to work with, great communication throughout the entire process. She did an excellent at taking care of our 3 kitties. She updated us daily on their activities and the kitties love spending time with her. We will definitely book her service again!”
“Victoria was a fantastic Rover checking in on my cat. Of note, she was very understanding about a key snafu. I would recommend her to anyone looking to have her check in on their pet in this area. I am very grateful for Victoria!”
About: My 16-year-old Pomchi bestie, Stella, is a testament to my care. I have been feeding, bathing, and loving her since I was 17 years old, and she is still doing great in her senior years. I am also a masters-level clinician in behavior health as a behavior analyst (BCBA). Because of this, not only am I well-versed in behavior change, positive reinforcement, and navigating challenging behaviors, but I've also had the honor of working with families of diverse backgrounds, including neurodiverse and LGBTQIA+ families :) I'm taking some time off from my usual work as I wait for my out-of-state licensing to process for a fully remote position. This means that I have lots of free time this summer. Help me get out of the house before playing Fortnite for 8+ hours a day rots my brain!!! I like to provide as much or as little communication as what would make you feel comfortable. Want pictures, a text update, and a video call while I'm visiting your pet? That sounds great! Prefer that I keep your phone notifications to a minimum? That works too!
About: I have experience with many different breeds of dogs as well as different species of animals other than dogs and cats. I have walked/watched great danes, pit bulls, labradors, and mixed breeds to name a few. As for the other species I have taken care of/owned I feel comfortable with reptiles, birds, small animals, fish, and spiders. I am always open to learning about and caring for different species of animals and breeds if dogs or cat! I have the summer off from college so I have a bunch of free time I hope to fill with caring for dogs and other animals! For the animals in my hone and past pets my big rule is respect. If the animal is experiencing a strong emotion or needs something I will always respect it. Animals have their bad days too! As for caring for pets on this app, that basic respect rule will still apply. I always make sure to not only respect your animal but also your home.
“Yichen has been absolutely amazing throughout the whole process! She took care of my kitty, sent me detailed updates keeping me reassured while I was away. She is extremely thoughtful and kind, and very communicative!! Highly recommended and I will definitely being booking with her again! 😊”
About: I’ve been caring for animals for over 15 years and have experience with pets of all sizes, ages, and temperaments. I do not currently have any pets of my own, but I understand firsthand the level of care, attention, and love that every pet deserves. I treat every animal as if they were my own ensuring that they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for at all times. I’m reliable, personable, and flexible with scheduling, whether you need consistent care or last-minute adjustments. I’m attentive to each pet’s unique needs and routines, and I follow all instructions carefully to ensure their well-being. I look forward to meeting you and your furry friend! Victoria M I am currently working as a Graduate Assistant for the Western Illinois Volleyball team while attending school to get my master in Sports Psychology and would like to make a little bit of extra money taking care of your pets. I do not have any of my own pets at my house but I have two story house that should be big enough for any sized pet and will be able to take them on walks or go to parks to get outdoor exercise.
About: Hi! I’m Kristiann, a devoted cat caregiver who has always had cats in my home. I’ve spent my life caring for these wonderful companions, from playful kittens to senior cats. I have hands-on experience administering pills and ensuring they receive the care and attention they need. I’ve cared for my own 8-year-old fur baby since kittenhood, so I understand the importance of patience, love, and routine. Whether your cat needs playtime, cuddles, or medication, I’ll provide the same level of care I give my own. Looking forward to meeting your feline friend!
About: I’m a cat owner of three, so your pet isn’t coming somewhere unfamiliar — they’re coming somewhere that already runs on cat time. My home is calm, cat-friendly, and structured around what cats actually need: their space, their pace, and someone who knows the difference between “leave me alone” and “I actually need something right now.” I’m attentive without being overbearing, which most cats appreciate more than anything. Whether yours is social and playful or the type that takes a day to warm up, I’ll meet them where they are. What you can expect: • Feeding on your schedule • Fresh water always available • Litter kept clean • Regular check-ins with photos • A calm, low-stress environment I treat every cat like I treat my own — with patience, respect, and zero forced affection.

“Second time using Twinkle and would use again. She takes great care of my little blind senior fur baby. She communicates well and sends updates throughout the day. Highly recommend her ❤️”
“Kun, “JK”, took great care of our energetic yellow Labrador, Lucy. We first arranged for a Meet and Greet to ensure that Lucy and JK got along well and they hit it off the second we got out of the car! JK asked to take the leash from me so that she could take control of Lucy on a short walk around the block. JK was very thorough and asked good questions about how Lucy would react if encountering other dogs or kids in public and also wanted to know if she had any other particular needs. I felt much more comfortable leaving Lucy with JK for daycare knowing that she would do her best to care for our girl as well as we would at home. JK took many pictures and videos throughout the day to provide periodic updates and was super responsive to any messages, too. I highly recommend her services.”
“I was quite nervous about leaving my 5 month old Shih Tzu, Tux for the first time, he has only ever been with my partner and I so quite naturally he very nervous upon arrival. However, Avancon and his gracious partner went above and beyond to make him comfortable...I mean, ABOVE and BEYOND!. From hand feeding him his food (wet food!!!!!) to gentle engagement that slowly calmed his nerves and allowed him to relax. I also received frequent updates and pics which I really appreciated, the great communication enabled me to have a worry free, productive work day. Words cannot express my true appreciation, I highly recommend this household for anyone with a puppy who they want to feel seen and loved.”
About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all sizes and personalities — from energetic puppies who need playtime and structure, to senior pets who deserve gentle patience and extra care. I understand that every pet has their own routine and comfort zone, so I always take the time to learn their quirks, signals, and favorite things. Whether it’s early morning walks, medication reminders, or snuggle sessions on the couch, I treat every furry friend like my own. Safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. What sets me apart is my attentive communication and genuine love for animals — I send regular photo updates, follow owner instructions carefully, and make sure each pet feels secure and loved while you’re away. If your pet needs special care (puppy training, senior support, or daily medication), I have hands-on experience and will ensure they get personalized attention. Because I have a flexible schedule, I’m able to give pets consistent attention throughout the day — whether it’s quick potty breaks, playtime in the yard, or cozy naps together. Evenings are for longer walks, cuddles, and winding down before bedtime. On weekends, I love taking dogs on local trail walks or to pet-friendly parks for some extra fun and stimulation. Every day, I make sure your pet feels cared for, safe, and loved — just like they would at home. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. When caring for pets in my home, I maintain a calm, pet-friendly environment with secure spaces for play and rest. I keep food, cleaning supplies, and other items safely out of reach, and ensure constant supervision during playtime or outdoor breaks. If I’m caring for your pet in your home, I always respect your space and follow your instructions carefully — from feeding routines and walking routes to any special care details. I take extra steps to keep doors and gates secure, and I never bring unfamiliar pets without your approval. Cleanliness, consistency, and clear communication are key. You’ll always receive photo or video updates so you know your furry family member is happy and well cared for. My goal is to make every stay or visit feel safe, familiar, and full of love — just like home.
“Hanah & Dabin were absolutely amazing and went above and beyond! We’re so happy and they will be our go to whenever we need a sitter in OC! We know how great they are because our dog fell asleep in the car and starting snoring immediately, that’s how much fun Ghost had today. I’m usually very anxious leaving Ghost with a sitter but they absolutely exceeded my expectations!! Hourly updates and photos, it made me enjoy my time without worrying about our baby. Truly amazing and high quality, we are so happy and will recommend to anyone we know in the area that’s in need!!”
About: 🌿 Premium Private Boarding — One Pet at a Time 🌿 I offer exclusive, one-on-one boarding so your pet receives personalized attention in a calm, home-like environment. No rotating dogs, no overcrowding, just intentional, loving care. Hi! I’m Erica, a lifelong animal lover and experienced Rover sitter with years of happy repeat clients who’ve become true friends (both human and furry). Animals have always been my absolute passion, and caring for pets is something I take very personally. 👉 I'm fully insured through Pet Care Insurance, which also covers your pet while they're in my care - adding an extra layer of safety and peace of mind. • My Home & Family 🏡 I live with my loving husband, two daycare-age kids, and my 16-year-old cat, Samantha. I’ve also loved and cared for pets well into their senior years, including my sweet Bailey and Jake, who both lived long, full lives and remain forever in my heart. Because I have young children, I only accept pets who are comfortable around kids. My toddlers are high-energy, and I prioritize everyone’s safety, comfort, and peace of mind. For boarding requests, meet & greets are required so we can ensure it’s a great fit for everyone before booking. • Premium, One-Pet-at-a-Time Boarding 🐾 When I offer boarding, I provide exclusive, one-pet-at-a-time care. I do not board multiple pets from different families at once. This allows me to give your pet my full attention, reduce stress, and create a calm, home-like environment, especially ideal for seniors, anxious pets, or dogs who thrive on individualized care. If your pet is staying with me, I intentionally clear my schedule and remain home with them as much as possible. Your pet isn’t just another booking, they’re my priority. • Walks, Drop-Ins & Visits 🦮🐱 I offer walks and drop-ins and thoughtfully schedule my day around the pets in my care. I respect your pet’s routine and take the time needed during each visit to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. • Communication & Care 📝 I believe great pet care starts with communication. I welcome any details about your pet’s routines, quirks, preferences, medications, or dietary needs…the more information, the better. I’m always happy to review written instructions and refer back to them as needed. You can expect regular updates and photos so you feel confident and reassured while you’re away.
About: I used to work at an animal hospital and have attended formal training on pet care. I’ve been a pet lover all my life. Caring for animals is my passion! I work from home full-time so I have constant presence around the pets I babysit. My 7yo female (spayed) Calico stays with me and loves having access to me all day, and if you have a social pet, then I’m here for them too! I know which stuff are bad for pets so you’re guaranteed a safe stay with us. I am home all day so there will be constant care and guidance
“Nicole and Aaron were so beyond amazing in taking care of my dog, Otis for last minute daycare needs! They were very responsive and helpful in ensuring Otis had everything he needed to have a good day. My dog has some separation anxiety and I immediately felt at ease when they welcomed Otis into their home with open arms to make him more comfortable. It was also great to have picture and video updates to see that he was having such a good time with Nicole and her family! Thank you so much!!”
“This was our second time booking with Grace, and we’re so happy with how things are going! Cuppy is really starting to warm up to her and clearly trusts her more each visit, which means so much to us. Grace is patient, gentle, and takes great care of her — making sure she gets her walks, attention, and feels comfortable. It’s such a relief knowing Cuppy is in caring hands. We’ll definitely continue booking with Grace and highly recommend her!”
“Rebecca hosted doggy day care for our 2-year old golden retriever, Bella, and Bella had the best day! She made new friends and was exhausted when she got home. Rebecca is INCREDIBLE at providing updates, I heard from her every 2-3 hours which put me so much at ease, and it was great to see how much fun Bella was having! Rebecca, thank you so much for your attentive care, we will definitely have Bella come back!”
“Mickey sent photos throughout the day and pickup/dropoff was very smooth and easy. Leia looked like she had a great time with the other dogs at the daycare and she came home happy and tired!”
About: Not only growing up with and raised my kids around dogs of all breeds. Rockwilders, pitbulls, German Shepherds, hounds etc. While active duty Marine. My son's were raised by by Staffy pitbull Sampson. Not only getting myself out the house, the time will be therapeutic for myself and the dogs. We will be getting much needed sun and exercise. The dogs and owners home be cared as if I'm staying at my grandma's house and I was told to take her dog fee fee outside. Then have the kitchen cleaned before she finishes her nap to go play bingo with the other grandma's from New Orleans.
“Niloo was amazing with our pup Kai! She was really good with updating us about him which I really appreciated. She even gave him one of her dog’s toys to Kai because he loved playing with it haha. Will definitely be booking with her again!”
About: I have a strong passion for animals. During the time in university, I had the privilege of caring for a Ragdoll cat and a German Shepherd for over a year and half. I have also had the pleasure of spending time with Corgis, Labradors, and Shiba Inus, learning about their unique personalities and caring for their needs. I’m grateful for the opportunity to have made such meaningful connections with these cuties, and I look forward to continuing to care of other fluffy in the future. I have a regular work schedule on weekdays (Monday through Thursday), work remotely on Friday. On weekends, I have a full two-day break to spend time with pets and take them out to play. The community has great greenery and security gate, providing a safe environment for puppies to take a leisurely walk. Also, there is a trail and a park behind the community where pets can play and run freely.
About: What sets me apart as a pet sitter is that I combine responsibility with genuine attentiveness to each dog’s individual personality and needs. I don’t just “watch” dogs — I actively engage with them to make sure they feel safe, stimulated, and loved while you’re away. I have experience caring for both puppies and senior dogs. With puppies, I pay great attention to how they feel and I’m very patient at caring for them. With senior dogs, I’m patient and attentive to mobility needs, medication schedules, slower walking pace, and comfort routines. I pay close attention to subtle behavior changes that may indicate discomfort. I’m also detail-oriented when it comes to feeding instructions, allergies, and household rules. Clean water, safe environments, and secure walks are always my priority. I provide regular updates with photos so you can feel reassured while you’re away. Most importantly, I treat every dog as if they were my own — with patience, affection, and respect for their unique temperament. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine because I’m currently home most of the time. This allows me to provide consistent supervision, frequent potty breaks, regular walks, and plenty of interaction throughout the day instead of leaving dogs alone for long periods. Since I have a flexible schedule, I can adapt to each dog’s needs — whether that means early morning walks, midday play sessions, feeding at specific times, or sticking closely to an established routine. Being home also allows me to monitor behavior closely and respond quickly if anything seems off. Because pet care would be a dedicated part of my day, I’m able to give dogs my full attention, ensuring they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for rather than just accommodated. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets, whether in my home or a client’s home. In my home, I maintain a clean, calm, and pet-safe environment. I remove potential hazards, keep doors and gates secured, and ensure all food and small objects are out of reach. Dogs have a comfortable resting area, constant access to fresh water, and structured playtime. I supervise interactions at all times and never leave pets unattended in unsafe situations. In a client’s home, I respect their space and follow all instructions carefully — including feeding schedules, medication, walking routes, house rules, and preferred routines. I double-check doors, gates, and leashes to ensure security. I’m attentive to behavior changes and will immediately communicate any concerns. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners feel reassured. I understand that trust is everything when someone leaves their pet in another person’s care. I treat every home respectfully and every pet as if they were my own — with patience, attentiveness, and responsibility.

“He proactively asked to meet before the walk to meet my dog Lucy and I, and to see where things in the house would be kept such as the leash, dog bags, etc. He wrote personalized summaries of their walks, filled the water bowl and left the light on as asked. Excellent dog walker with a lot of dog experience pre-dating Rover.”
“Erica has been a great walker for our dog. She’s responsive, takes great attention to detail and cares greatly for our dog. We will be using her again in the future.”
About: I have been a dog owner for many years, as a child i have always had pets. I have an affinity with taking care of many types of animals, but especially dogs. I have my own maltipoo. Her name is Coco. I adopted her when she was only a little puppy. So i am very adept at taking care of puppies as well. I know how needy they can be, but that almost makes me love them even more. Knowing an animal needs you, makes you want to make sure they have everything they need. I adopted a Kitten as well, which has been a bundle of joy. I had no idea how sweet and cuddly cats could be. Im very happy my cat has changed my mind about cats. Right now i am currently not working, so dog/cat sitting for me seemed like a great idea for me in every way. I am currently not working so my schedule is usually free during the day. Feel free to message me and i am sure i can accommodate to your hours. As a pet owner i love being around all type of animals and am very patient. Your pet will always be safe and happy around me.
About: Hi, I’m Stefanie! I’ve been around dogs my whole life and have a 13-year-old poodle mix named Benny, so I know how important it is to feel comfortable and confident with the person caring for your pet. I’m reliable and genuinely love spending time with animals, whether that’s going for walks, playtime, feeding, or just keeping them company while you’re away. I also know how much updates matter, so I’ll always make sure to send photos and check-ins during our time together. I work from home and have a flexible schedule, which makes it easy for me to build time into my daily schedule to care for your pet even on short notice. I care for pets in a client’s home by following their usual routine so their pet feels comfortable and safe. I make sure they’re fed, walked, given fresh water, and get plenty of attention and care during visits. I’m also respectful of each client’s home, reliable with timing, and always provide updates and photos for peace of mind.

If I’m caring for your pet in your home, I always respect your space and follow your instructions carefully — from feeding routines and walking routes to any special care details. I take extra steps to keep doors and gates secure, and I never bring unfamiliar pets without your approval. Cleanliness, consistency, and clear communication are key. You’ll always receive photo or video updates so you know your furry family member is happy and well cared for. My goal is to make every stay or visit feel safe, familiar, and full of love — just like home.
“Twinkle was absolutely wonderful with our dog. She can be a bit hesitant with new people and other dogs. Twinkle was very patient and caring with our old girl. And gave detailed review cards. Will definitely be reaching out in the future for any other trips!”
About: Own family dog since 2018, and adopted 2 cats- both around 10 months each! Very flexible schedule, love walking dogs, learns quickly, and easily adaptable! I graduated college early and have a projected full-time in the fall, so I’m currently very available with no commitments during the week! Can spend hours walking or sitting any pet + handle any task! I am experienced with dogs, grew up with one, and own 2 cats who are 10 months each! I can easily learn pet’s routines and enjoy walking them!
About: Not only growing up with and raised my kids around dogs of all breeds. Rockwilders, pitbulls, German Shepherds, hounds etc. While active duty Marine. My son's were raised by by Staffy pitbull Sampson. Not only getting myself out the house, the time will be therapeutic for myself and the dogs. We will be getting much needed sun and exercise. The dogs and owners home be cared as if I'm staying at my grandma's house and I was told to take her dog fee fee outside. Then have the kitchen cleaned before she finishes her nap to go play bingo with the other grandma's from New Orleans.
“Cie did a great job with our dogs! We received a lot of great updates and clear communication, letting us know our pets were taken care of during their walk. We even got a ton of cute pictures and videos. Thank you, Cie for taking care of our dogs!”
About: What sets me apart is my background in Animal Medicine and Welfare. I have knowledge of animal behavior and health, which helps me care for pets more professionally. I am patient with puppies and attentive to senior pets, making sure they feel safe and comfortable. I also have personal experience raising dogs of different sizes, from small breeds like the Bichon Frise to larger breeds like the Labrador Retriever, and I have cared for senior dogs as well. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to care for pets. I can provide regular walks, feeding, playtime, and lots of attention to make sure pets feel safe and happy. When caring for pets in my home or my client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal as possible. I follow the owner’s instructions for feeding, walks, and playtime. I also make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved. With my background in Animal Medicine and Welfare, I pay close attention to their behavior and health to ensure they are happy and well cared for.
“Mitchell had great communication, sending us photos and updates on every walk he did with our two dogs. We have one very large dog and one medium large dog. Mitchell handled them both very well. I felt comfortable that he had everything handled while we were out of town.”
About: My 16-year-old Pomchi bestie, Stella, is a testament to my care. I have been feeding, bathing, and loving her since I was 17 years old, and she is still doing great in her senior years. I am also a masters-level clinician in behavior health as a behavior analyst (BCBA). Because of this, not only am I well-versed in behavior change, positive reinforcement, and navigating challenging behaviors, but I've also had the honor of working with families of diverse backgrounds, including neurodiverse and LGBTQIA+ families :) I'm taking some time off from my usual work as I wait for my out-of-state licensing to process for a fully remote position. This means that I have lots of free time this summer. Help me get out of the house before playing Fortnite for 8+ hours a day rots my brain!!! I like to provide as much or as little communication as what would make you feel comfortable. Want pictures, a text update, and a video call while I'm visiting your pet? That sounds great! Prefer that I keep your phone notifications to a minimum? That works too!
About: Lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for dogs and pets of all kinds. I rescued my dog, Clayton, 14 years ago, and he recently passed away in February 2026 at the incredible age of 15. Through that journey, I gained firsthand experience caring for a pet through every stage of life, from the energetic younger years to the extra patience and attention senior pets need. I understand the patience, consistency, and love animals deserve, and I’ll care for your pet as if they were part of my own family. Whether it’s walks, playtime, cuddles, administering routines, or simply providing companionship, your pet will be in caring and reliable hands. Living in an apartment has given me a strong understanding of the importance of regular potty breaks, exercise, and maintaining a consistent routine for dogs. Before leaving the house, I always make sure dogs get at least two potty breaks, followed by no fewer than three additional outings once I return home. Pets in my care are treated like family and are welcome to relax comfortably throughout my apartment, including on the couch and bed. I also enjoy taking long walks around my neighborhood and would love to bring your furry friend along for fresh air, exercise, and extra attention throughout the day. During the week, I split my time between two office locations — one in Anaheim near Honda Center and the other in Corona del Mar near Fashion Island. My typical schedule has me away from home from about 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM, while Fridays are fully remote and offer much more flexibility. If your pet has specific needs, routines, or requires additional attention, please let me know. I’m happy to coordinate flexibility within my work schedule whenever possible to ensure your pet receives the care and attention they deserve.
About: I’ve been around animals my whole life. I grew up with dogs starting at age 8 and later cared for eight cats along with two dogs of my own for over five years. Because of that, I’m very comfortable with different personalities, energy levels, and routines. I’ve also spent years pet sitting for families and neighbors, so I understand how important it is to be reliable, attentive, and treat every pet like my own. I was also working towards vet school, working at vet clinics for 3 years until I decided a career change, so I have lots of emergency pet care experience and have handled many different personalities! I’m patient with both high energy pets and more independent or shy ones, and I’m confident handling multiple pets at once. What sets me apart is my genuine love for animals combined with real, hands on experience across both dogs and cats; and I don’t just watch pets, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I am currently a recent graduate, prepping for my board exam and looking for jobs so I have plenty of time to spend with your fur-baby! I am available to drop by and walk dogs Monday - Saturday, and our apartment is open for boarding any day of the week! I live in an apartment with plenty of grass area for dogs to go potty, as well as many parks nearby to take them on long walks. We currently have two cats at home to keep your baby company with many cat toys and cat tower for others to play in. If your fur-baby doesn't get along with other animals, we are willing to accommodate by keeping them separate!
About: I have experience with many different breeds of dogs as well as different species of animals other than dogs and cats. I have walked/watched great danes, pit bulls, labradors, and mixed breeds to name a few. As for the other species I have taken care of/owned I feel comfortable with reptiles, birds, small animals, fish, and spiders. I am always open to learning about and caring for different species of animals and breeds if dogs or cat! I have the summer off from college so I have a bunch of free time I hope to fill with caring for dogs and other animals! For the animals in my hone and past pets my big rule is respect. If the animal is experiencing a strong emotion or needs something I will always respect it. Animals have their bad days too! As for caring for pets on this app, that basic respect rule will still apply. I always make sure to not only respect your animal but also your home.
About: Hi, I’m youhua I’m someone who puts patience and care into every moment I spend with pets. For the past five years, I’ve often helped my friends look after their dogs and cats, so I’m very familiar with their routines, habits, and body language — I can easily tell when they’re hungry, anxious, or just want some love and playtime. I always arrive on time for every service, make sure each walk is safe and enjoyable, provide fresh water and clean-ups, and send plenty of photo and video updates so you can feel at ease even when you’re away. I live in the Northwood community in Irvine, surrounded by several beautiful parks that are perfect for daily walks. I have a gentle personality and a calm energy that helps soothe nervous pets, and I’m happy to adjust my routine to fit your pet’s schedule. I look forward to becoming a trusted temporary family member for you and your beloved furry friend. 🐾 I am usually at home. I go to the gym for an hour each time, and the rest of the time I am basically at home. I think I have a lot of time to take care of the dog. I have a fenced garden and I believe they will be safe in it. I also like to drink coffee in the sun in the garden, and I can play with them.
About: What sets me apart as a pet sitter is that I combine responsibility with genuine attentiveness to each dog’s individual personality and needs. I don’t just “watch” dogs — I actively engage with them to make sure they feel safe, stimulated, and loved while you’re away. I have experience caring for both puppies and senior dogs. With puppies, I pay great attention to how they feel and I’m very patient at caring for them. With senior dogs, I’m patient and attentive to mobility needs, medication schedules, slower walking pace, and comfort routines. I pay close attention to subtle behavior changes that may indicate discomfort. I’m also detail-oriented when it comes to feeding instructions, allergies, and household rules. Clean water, safe environments, and secure walks are always my priority. I provide regular updates with photos so you can feel reassured while you’re away. Most importantly, I treat every dog as if they were my own — with patience, affection, and respect for their unique temperament. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine because I’m currently home most of the time. This allows me to provide consistent supervision, frequent potty breaks, regular walks, and plenty of interaction throughout the day instead of leaving dogs alone for long periods. Since I have a flexible schedule, I can adapt to each dog’s needs — whether that means early morning walks, midday play sessions, feeding at specific times, or sticking closely to an established routine. Being home also allows me to monitor behavior closely and respond quickly if anything seems off. Because pet care would be a dedicated part of my day, I’m able to give dogs my full attention, ensuring they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for rather than just accommodated. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets, whether in my home or a client’s home. In my home, I maintain a clean, calm, and pet-safe environment. I remove potential hazards, keep doors and gates secured, and ensure all food and small objects are out of reach. Dogs have a comfortable resting area, constant access to fresh water, and structured playtime. I supervise interactions at all times and never leave pets unattended in unsafe situations. In a client’s home, I respect their space and follow all instructions carefully — including feeding schedules, medication, walking routes, house rules, and preferred routines. I double-check doors, gates, and leashes to ensure security. I’m attentive to behavior changes and will immediately communicate any concerns. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners feel reassured. I understand that trust is everything when someone leaves their pet in another person’s care. I treat every home respectfully and every pet as if they were my own — with patience, attentiveness, and responsibility.
“Liv and her mom were great. We had to add extra walks and feedings and they were happy to help. We came home to a happy puppy who was well cared for. We will definitely be using their services again.”

“Kun did a fantastic job as always! This is my second time leaving Blue with her and I always receive updates and see that she is getting a ton of attention and care. Definitely recommend!”
“Olha was AMAZING! She took care of our dog very well and provided me with updates throughout the day. She is quick to respond and follows care instructions very well, including my dachshund’s IVDD and diet needs. She made me feel safe leaving my dog with her and will absolutely book her again! Thank you Olha for all the love and care Chai received.”
“Wen was nothing short of amazing! We got update photos immediately and our pups who have pretty bad separation anxiety looked like they came back from vacation! She’s so on top of everything - medications, safety, play time and updates to us. Thank you so much! We will be using Wen in the future !”
“Hazel was well taken care of by Doug! He was very flexible with our drop off and pick up times. She went on plenty of walks and slept well when she got back home. I will be using Doug in the future!”
“Allison was exceptional, warm, and empathetic. Poppy bonded with her instantly, and she cared for him with genuine affection and attention. She stayed in touch with regular updates, showed great flexibility, and even took him out shopping, which was adorable. Her kindness and empathy made the entire experience feel natural, joyful, and reassuring.”
“Rebecca was by far the best we found on Rover. We had a meet and greet before the stay with our dog, Koga, and her fun-loving puppy Hunter. During the stay, she sent daily updates with photos of Koga having a wonderful time with Hunter and the other dogs. Koga had a blast playing tug of war, wrestling, and napping with his new friends! While we were on vacation, he was having his own vacation! I almost felt like he wouldn’t want to come home. She clearly treats dogs as if they were her own and loves and cares for them. Next time we go out of town, we will definitely be asking Rebecca to take care of Koga!”
“Short notice booking and Niloofar took care of my Harley (dog) like she was her own. Harley was able to be around her small dogs and she loved it. I was sent pictures and videos everyday as she updated me regularly. I’m sure we just found our dog whisperer and I’m so happy to have found someone I can truly trust. Do yourself and your dog a favor book with Niloofar and trust that she will take excellent care of your pup. Thank you so much we will be booking again.”
“David and his family are great. This is my first time using Rover and having someone besides my family watch my dog. It went so smoothly and worked out great. I love that they send me photos and videos throughout the day. I will be having David watch my dog again in the future.”
“Tina is an amazing sitter. This was Maples first time with a sitter and we were very nervous about our high energy, curious beagle being in a new environment . But Tina was great at giving us updates with videos and pictures and learned maples behaviors and needs very quickly! Would absolutely book with Tina and her family again!”

“Yoo was a lifesaver when I had to rush overseas for a family emergency. For 4 nights and 5 days, my dog was treated with so much love. I felt even more reassured because Yoo shared photos of my dog regularly. Knowing my furry family member was safe allowed me to focus on my family situation. I will absolutely trust Yoo with my dog again. Truly grateful!!”
About: I have over 11 years of experience caring for animals and have spent years rescuing both dogs and cats. Through that experience, I have become familiar with recognizing warning signs, understanding animal behavior, and helping pets feel safe and comfortable. I have cared for animals ranging from 6 months old to 12 years old, and I am comfortable working with pets who may be shy, anxious, reactive, or more aggressive. I am patient, responsible, and attentive to each pet’s individual needs. I am available for overnight care any day of the week. For full-day care, I am available on Saturdays and Sundays only as I work a 9-5 during the weeks. I care for pets by keeping their routine consistent and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I follow all owner instructions closely, including feeding, walks, litter cleaning, playtime, medication if needed, and any special care needs. I am attentive to each pet’s behavior and always prioritize their safety and comfort. I have a 12 year old Labrador at home and if the pet I am pet sitting does not get along with her, I am able to separate them as needed.
About: Dogs have been a huge part of my life for over 20 years. As a dedicated dog owner and long-time volunteer with animal organizations, I've cared for dogs of all ages, sizes, breeds, and personalities.

I work from home, which allows me to provide plenty of attention, and companionship throughout the day. Your dog won't be left alone for long periods and will have someone nearby to monitor their needs, provide potty breaks, walks, and lots of affection. Caring for dogs fits naturally into my daily routine. I provide a safe, loving environment with a fully fenced yard for supervised play and exercise. Since I work from home, your dog will get plenty of attention, potty breaks, and companionship throughout the day. I follow each pet's routine closely and keep owners updated with photos and messages for peace of mind.
