“Nick and Cora were great with our chow chow. They took him for many walks and kept him company. They were great for me too, sending many pictures and texts to let me know how he was doing. Six stars!”
“Ivette was vey welcoming and kind to my little Charly. She had no issues tending to Charly meal routine aswell as his exercise needs. Charly was very happy when picking him up, which is always a very good sign that he had a good stay. Thank you and would 10/10 recommend to everyone”
“Bakari had his first and definitely not his last stay with Arriyanna. Received updates and photos while away. I know he is looking forward to his next stay! 💫”
“If your dogs are your children like mine are, you definitely want someone like Alexandra to watch over them. I was able to leave Leo in her care for almost 3 weeks and I never once worried that he wasn’t getting the best love and care possible. In other words, I was able to enjoy my vacation! Alexandra is great!”
“John always takes the best care of Piper. Unfortunately my flights were delayed during both of my stays and on both occasions John was super accommodating and flexible. Will continue to book with him in the future!”
“Artem was incredible! Our other Rover sitter fell through at the last minute, and he willingly took in our pup that same day, so we could catch our flight on time! He was very responsive, and it was clear that he kept a safe and structured environment for the dogs. I would highly recommend him and will definitely call on him the next time we need our dog boarded. Thank you again, Artem!”
“Tatiana was great with Herschel. She was very thorough asking about his routines and likes/dislikes. She sent frequent updates and I think Herschel had a great time! I know he can be a handful so I appreciate her patience.”
“Bodhi loves perla so so much!!! She’s always so helpful and flexible and cares so much for our boy. She’s also always got a careful eye on Bodhi and can give us a heads up if she notices something that we should be aware of. Could not recommend perla enough!”
“Elaine was an incredible sitter! She and her husband really know what they’re doing as they usually have a full house of dogs! My pup had so much fun playing in the yard with the other dogs, and Elaine sent me tons of picture updates!! Would use again in a heartbeat.”
“Karina did a great job caring for Brody! Brody stayed for 5 days when we were out of town and we got a very happy, content dog back. I think he had a great time! Karina’s communication with me was spot on. Thank you!!”
“As usual, Jami & Frances were fantastic! My dog Murphy is pretty much a regular with them. They love him and treat him like family every time he stays with them. Communication is always clear and timely and I couldn't ask for a better sitter. They are simply wonderful.”
“We had a great experience with May. She communicated clearly and kept us updated throughout our dog's stay with pictures and videos, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. Our dog had a fun time playing with her dog and they got along great. I would definitely book with her again. Thank you, May!”
“As a first-time Rover user, I was naturally a bit anxious about leaving our puppy with someone new.Sharyl was absolutely wonderful! She was patient, attentive, and sent plenty of updates that put our minds at ease. Romeo came home happy and well-cared for. I’ll definitely be booking with Sharyl again!”
“Took great care of my dog. Was finding a sitter last minute and she was able to take my pup in thankfully. Would sent photos of my pup to make sure he was doing good and he seemed pretty. Would book again”
About: I’ve been officially pet sitting consistently since 2024 and have built my client base through word-of-mouth referrals and repeat bookings. I grew up with dogs but through petsitting, have experience caring for dogs, cats, birds, tortoises, betta fish, shrimp, and chameleons. Most of my experience is with overnight stays ranging from weekend trips to 1–2 week vacations. I’m detail-oriented, adaptable, and take pride in following care instructions closely while keeping owners updated with photos and messages throughout their trip. As a powerlifter and active person, I’m comfortable with both short and long walks and can keep up with high-energy & strong dogs. I work in-office during weekdays but am available mornings, evenings, overnights, and am fully flexible on weekends. My goal is simple: to make sure your pets feel safe and comfortable while giving you peace of mind when you’re away. I work in an office Monday through Friday, so I'm most flexible on weekends. For pets that are comfortable being home during the workday, I'm available for feeding, bathroom, and walks before work, in the evenings, overnight, and throughout the weekend. I am detail-oriented, adaptable, and take pride in following care instructions closely so pets can stay comfortable in their familiar environment. I’m flexible to either board your pet in my home, stay at your home whether for drop in visits or overnight stays, whatever you and your pet feel works best for their comfort. Prior to the stay, (my home or yours), we will go over your pet’s routine and your expectations to make sure this is a good fit before moving forward.
“Once again thank you so much for taking care of Teddy. I can tell he even miss you after picking him up and notice he didn't cry when we said goodbye , he feels so comfortable with you.”
“Armando was incredible! He took great care of our dog, was super responsive and sent lots of photos. Our dog came home happy and tired. We will definitely use him again.”

“Im grateful to have had Donny take care of our cats while we were away! He’s truly a cat whisperer—taking the time to get to know each cat individually and remembering all their unique quirks and preferences. It’s clear he genuinely cares for them, and our cats were comfortable in his hands. Donny would always send us regular updates and photos, which gave us peace of mind and made us feel connected even from afar. We highly recommend him to anyone looking for a thoughtful and reliable cat sitter!”
“She is amazing she took care of my baby Apollo and kept me posted every day on how he was , by sending me pictures and updates I highly appreciate her and highly recommend.”
“Pearl went above and beyond caring for my two cats! She followed all instructions perfectly and gave them so much love and attention! I’m so grateful for her and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable sitter! We will definitely be asking her to cat sit again! Thank you Pearl, you are amazing!”
About: I’ve watched over many people’s cats along with my own cats at home for years. I enjoy their company and respect their needs. I would be thrilled to watch over your cat, and make it a safe space for them. I have plenty of experiences with different personalities of cats, such as calm cats, energetic, cats who may need some time to warm up to you, and those that are playful right away. However your cat may be like, I’ll be happy to get to know them! :)
“She did a wonderful job making sure my cats were comfortable, happy, and fed every day while I was away for a week. She communicated well and was attentive to all the needs of my special-needs cat and my kittens. I felt confident knowing they were in caring and capable hands!”
“Perla is the best. It’s hard to leave my fur babies when I travel but knowing I have someone that takes such good care of them, makes me feel less guilty about leaving them.”
“I’m a so happy we chose Ivy. She went over all our pet instructions and loved my fur babies . Ivy sent daily pictures and responded within minutes to any questions or concerns.. She went above and beyond taking care of my house in the process. I trust Ivy and look forward to another wonderful experience choosing Ivy. Thank you so much Ivy”
“Zulaiha was generous, flexible, and thorough throughout our experience! We got to enjoy our vacation with peace of mind. I’m so grateful for their efforts and would book again!”
“On time and professional for our meet and greet. Eggnog immediately was himself with her, and she handled it well. I’m a helicopter pet parent and I’m confident I have found the right sitter for my Eggnog.”
“Maddy has been very professional, prompt and respectful. My animals adore her and she spends the time to cuddle with my older dog during her drop ins. Highly recommend her services!”
“We can’t say enough about Elaine! She was very responsive from the very beginning and stayed on top on things 100%. She sent us daily reports and gave us updates about Pickles mood, behavior, and health. Great communication haves us peace of mind. We have a 14 yo cat. Even though she doesn’t require medical care, it need to be feed in small chucks. Elaine got the portions just right for the cat to eat without getting sick. She was very patient with Pickles, looked for her, and play with her to keep her as happy as possible. We recommend Elaine 100%.”
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was very little, like walking, feeding and bathing them. I have taken care of family and friends pets. I currently have time over the summer as I work at a middle school and have the summer off. I am very flexible to take care of your fur baby. My dog has a fenced in yard and is crate trained. I will follow the rules and routine for which your fur baby has to keep them safe
“This was my first time using Rover, and it was hands down the BEST experience I could have asked for, especially with Chris caring for my dog & cat! 🐾 Chris has incredible communication skills and kept me updated every step of the way, which gave me so much peace of mind :) He is also extremely punctual and reliable, especially when it comes to feeding and walking schedules, which meant everything to me & more. The level of love and care he showed my animals was truly top notch. He followed every instruction perfectly and still found ways to go above and beyond in so many thoughtful ways. For the first time in a very long time, I was actually able to relax and disconnect from “pet mom mode” because I knew my animals were being cared for exactly how I would care for them, if not even better. I also loved the pictures Chris sent, you could genuinely see how much fun my pets were having with him, and somehow he even got my cat to come out and play, which says everything. If you’re thinking about booking with Chris, do it!!! You’ll thank me later & your pets will gain a new best friend 🐾”
“Nicole is simply awesome. My wife and I go away for weekends pretty regularly and normally we rely on family and friends to care for our cats and chickens. This past weekend none of them were available, so I looked into Rover and found Nicole. After reading her profile and getting a sense of her being a great person with an innate love for animals, we hired her. Could not be happier with our decision. She took care of the critters with exceptional love and responsibility and she will be our go-to care taker from this point forward. Family and friends: you're off the hook. We've found Nicole!”
“Just needed someone who could drop by to let out my pup while I’d be gone all day and Cassandra is a gem! Great communication and even though she was only with my dog for a quick potty break she provided many photos of their adventure.”
About: helped take care of a friend’s cat while they traveled during summer, winter, and spring breaks. Since they lived close to me, I stopped by their home twice a day to make sure the cat had food and water and to spend some quality time with him. I would open the windows to let in fresh air and sunlight because he loved to sunbathe. Because the cat was older and didn’t need much, simple cuddle time was enough to keep him happy and comfortable. After a couple of years, the cat who was named Mexico passed away. We miss him forever. Soon after that, I cat-sat my brother’s cats while he was away on trips. Since they were both young male cats, I made sure they didn’t scratch the furniture or window screens, fight with each other, or steal food from one another’s bowls. I also paid close attention when opening doors to make sure they didn’t try to escape.

“Thank you so much! She is BEST sitter for us. She sent many photos for us. So We could know how our fur baby were doing. My dog had a very relaxing stay and is very good condition the next day. We'll definitely request again next time.”
“Rebooked for the rest of the week by noon. Attentive and communicated each step of the way. Sent a ton of photos which was great. It's my first time using a sitter I don't know and Perla was awesome. Dembe is exhausted and very happy. Perla and her dogs kept up with his puppy energy all day. I'm seriously so happy with the way this worked out.”
About: I grew up with dogs and cats and can understand how they are feeling. There is a huge park nearby that I can take them on their daily walks and exercise if opting to stay at my place. In general, I love taking care of them like they are my own. I work full time remotely on East Coast hours, which means I finish my work early while spending more time to take care and play with your fur baby! I live by myself and can fully dedicate and commit my time to your dog or cat's needs. I have a plenty of space for your fur baby along with a fenced patio if caring in my home. I can easily crate your dog if needed. I stay with your fur babies and take lots of pictures throughout the day to make sure they're having a good and relaxing time with me.
“This was our first time booking Elaine, this will definitely not be the last time! Elaine sent beautiful professional pictures of our beautiful Poppy. We were at ease knowing she was well taken care of. I highly recommend Elaine to any doggy parents hesitant about leaving your pup for the very first time.”
About: I’ve had a ShitZu for over 12 years, have taken care of neighbors dogs dozens of times, and am always excited to mingle with a new doggo. I am punctual, attentive, responsible, and super friendly. I am a student, and all of my classes are online. I work remotely as well, and spend most of my time on video editing or fitness. Walks are a big part of my routine, especially in the mornings and after dinner. I am very cautious and attentive when it comes to dogs. I am hyper aware, and always try to figure out how to make them happy and comfortable in the space. When walking, I’m very good at gauging what the dog wants and needs.
“Hiromi was the best sitter we could have chosen for our young 3 month old puppy! She gave updates/pictures as often as I wanted to make me feel comfortable. She is extremely nice and our pup was so happy to spend time with her. We booked her for two days in a row- when we dropped him off the second day, he remembered her and was excited! We will definitely take Luke again to Hiromi- she is our #1.”

About: I have had a dog in the home for 16 years and have also had three cats. I live in a good sized apartment right next to a large park, I take my dog out 3-5 times a day since we work from home. I do not feed any human foods to our dogs other than veggies and fruits that are safe for consumption. Very cautious to bloat in dogs as our dog is 25% great dane. My dog is well trained and is up to date with all vaccinations and is on flea medication. I work from home and have a 2.5 yr old dog. She is a Labrador and 25% great dane. She is well trained and super friendly and gentle. She gets more than 3 walks a day as she lives playing fetch. I am mostly always home unless I need to run to the store and gym in the morning. I have one friendly and playful dog, we go out 3-5 times a day and lots of grassy areas nearby. We keep an eye on her at all times since I do work from home. She gets fed twice a day with occasional doggy treats for being the best dog.
“Zahara was amazing with my dog! 🐾 She asked for details beforehand and even invited me to check out her place before the stay, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. While I was away, she sent pictures and videos, and I could tell my dog was happy and well cared for. She’s super friendly and really attentive to my dog’s needs. Highly recommend! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟”
“Jon has been nothing short of amazing! I had a prior experience with a different Rover sitter a few months ago (which was my first time using Rover for my puppy) and despite the good reviews, this sitter almost made me give up on Rover. However, I realized I needed to use Rover for doggy daycare since my pup can’t be neutered for another couple of months, and I needed someone to get my lab’s energy out while I work. After looking for a few days, I came across Jon’s page and reached out for a doggy day care request. Right away, I had a great feeling because he asked for a meet and greet which means he is mindful of the dogs he takes in and had a great response time to any questions I had. I waited until my pup’s first week with him to write a review, and I am so so so happy we found Jon! This first week, he did exactly what he said he was going to do aka tire my pup out so I have a balanced WFH life, take care of my pup, and my pup has been extremely excited to see him since then.”
About: Hi! I'm a dog lover of all sizes. I'll run with your dog, teach them tricks (taught our former dog how to use the clicker and various commands), throw the ball with them, take them on walks and feed them. I'm located in PV by the PV reservoir so I'm always out and about in the neighborhood on runs, etc. I grew up with a Scottish Terrier and have watched German Shepherds, Cattle Dogs, Dashunds, Shiba Inu’s and other Terrier breeds. I've got many books on how to deal with various dog behaviors and it's taught me a lot over the years. Would love to help during the week or if you need someone to assist on the weekends too, that can be arranged. Hope to meet your pooch soon! I’ll be able to balance time as I’m at home most days of the week. I’m pretty flexible with my schedule and can typically make it work. I have a fenced yard and can take care of your pooch inside or outside. If your dog likes to run, I love running with em.
“Bernard and Big lovable Harley were both great! Sent photos and text updates the entire day! My dog floki can be a bit nervous but he looked completely at home with Bernard and Harley in their big yard ! Also my pup was completely worn out and ready for bed when I picked him up as they went on a trip to local the dog park . Me and Floki will definitely be return clients ! P.S drop off and pick up were both quick and simple !”
“Marco had a wonderful day! I really appreciated all the updates and photos throughout his stay. It was great seeing that he got a nice walk and lots of attention. He came home happy and relaxed, which is always the best sign. Thank you for taking such good care of him — I would definitely book again!”
“Sylvia was amazing! She kept me updated on my two dogs throughout their stay in her home and made sure they got plenty of playtime ! I would highly recommend her and plan to rebook !”
“Bogie LOVES Deeja and Luc and their dog Milo. She’s always so excited to go to them for day care or boarding. They take great care of her and she seems relaxed and happy after time there.”
“This baby sitter always comes through for me. Traveling for an extended trip. Dog being a baby and doesn’t WANT to stay home alone for 10 hours. Surgery. And my puppy, now a teenager in human years(?), is always very happy to GO BACK to stay with them again. Her being healthy and happy (plus photos of her day) is the REAL TEST!!!”
“Armando saved the day for me when I had to last minute go into the office. My dog is very playful and active which makes it hard sometimes to find a sitter that is ok with that. Thankfully Armando has a dog with similar energy as mine so they had a great time playing all day. Armando was very communicative and responsive. i will definitely be using Armando again! Thank you!!”

About: I have experience giving medications (pills, liquids, ear/eye drops) as well as experience with senior and small dogs especially. Senior care is my strength but I love dogs of all ages. I work from home part time and am home all day Friday-Monday. There are no children or pets in the home so I am able to provide my undivided attention. Your dog will be inside my home most of the day as I do not have a yard. I do however have a large park/lake across the street that I frequent that is great for walks.
About: Cats and dogs have been a constant in my life. From pitbulls to labs, I've grown to love the variety of personalities that come with pet care. I have 3 years experience pet-sitting. I've cared for the pets of family and friends. I've sat and walked both small and large dogs, providing enrichement in clients homes, too. I'm currently the owner of two cats going on 8 years now! At home, I genuinely enjoy being able to take care of my own zoo of animals - rodents, reptiles, and aquatic pets too! I hope to share this love for animals by lending a helpful hand to other pet owners! I work part time; I receive my schedule on a week to week basis. So, my availability is flexible meaning I have lots of opportunities to fit into your care needs for your pets! I accommodate to each animals needs taking things like their home environment, temperament, and personality into consideration to best fit their needs and provide a comfortable care experience!
About: I grew up with dogs since I was a child. I grew up with Shiba Inus, so I know very well about them. I currently don't have any pets as my girl passed away from old age last year and haven't gotten a new furbaby since she passed. I have been a professional dog walker/boarder/care taker for 5 years before pandemic and had many recurring clients when I was in the Bay area. I love walking them and always give 1 on 1 attention. Some of the compliments I get all the time are how detailed my updates are with many pictures and videos. I personally love to take many pictures and videos of my pets and kids, so I just take a bunch when I walk them or have them over my place. I always make sure they have water (iced water when it gets hot) before I leave with treats (unless pawrents say otherwise). I always update with their potty details too as I know as a pawrent that you want to make sure your furbaby is doing well. If I feel something is wrong, I immediately contact the pawrent. If they made a mess, I try to clean up the best I can before leaving as I know how tiring that can be unless told otherwise. Another compliment I get is how well I am with senior dogs or dogs with medical needs. The dog I grew up with was with me since he was 3mo old until he passed (15.5yrs old). He had many health complications the last 3yrs of his life that I learned how to give every medicine that you can think of including eye meds, pills, syringes, etc. I always have pill pockets, so just in case they don't want the meds in their food, I can always wrap with pill pockets instead. I am very keen, so once I get to know your furbaby, I will be able to see any changes or sense a difference and will let you know. Since my dog was very quiet, we missed a lot of signs from him although I had a doubt as a kid. I don't want that happening to anybody or any dogs. I am also certified in pet first aid and pet cpr. I take pride in as a caretaker and love to be your furbaby's new buddy to hang out with! I currently work at home, so I can be with your furbaby all the time even when my kids are home. I don't mind taking them for walks or even to the park after work as long as weather permits Dogs are free to roam in kitchen/living room area and will have access to unlimited water. Treats will depend on what permission I get from each pawrent. They will never be alone with my kids without any adult supervision as I know how rough kids can be. My kids are taught, but are still too young, so I will never leave them alone with any dogs. I never left them alone with my senior girl even when she became weak and ill with her last few months of her life.
“Pearl was amazing! She dropped in before our first booking to meet me and my dog, Lola. Pearl fed and walked Lola and sent photos of our happy pooch! Thank you so much for taking great care of Lola. We had peace of mind while out for the night and came home to a happy pooch!!”
“Nicole is a wonderful dog walker! Great communication, she was super sweet to my dog, and I got lots of pictures of him having a great time with her. Will definitely request her for more walks often!”
About: I’ve grown up with animals my whole life. Any time there was an opportunity to look after a friend’s or neighbor’s pet I was more than happy to do it. Being paid to do it was nice, but being able to see the pet was the biggest reason I did it. I’m currently working part time so I have quite a bit of time on my hands. As I’m learning to navigate the adult world from recently graduating, looking after pets is a great way to stay active and build a good routine. When it comes to safety and health of your pet, I always run it by the owner dozens of times to make sure the animal is taken care of the highest degree. Whether it’s the specifics about a medication that is important to take or when it’s time to take the pup to bed.
About: lovely to meet you! aside from personal experience, I used to volunteer at an Animal Shelter socializing, grooming, playing and providing care for dogs and cats (young and old). I had a cat of my own for 4 years, and adopted a new kitten around a year ago! I grew up taking care of family cats and dogs, and stray cats in my neighborhood. I have a strong love for animals and I would be delighted to meet and care for your furry family members. I currently am not working so I have plenty of time during the week to give the best care to your pets! I'm available Saturday through Sunday with a pretty flexible availability, so I’d be happy to work with your schedule and needs. Before scheduling with me, I'll make sure to ask about any specific home rules, preferred activities for the pets, and anything in the home that I have access to in order to provide the best care for your family member! Feel free to let me know any concerns or give me any rules to follow.
“I was grateful Desiree came to meet my dogs before I left town. My dogs were very comfortable with her (even the shyish one!) I would definitely request her walk my dogs again!”
“My 5 year old doodle has been walking with Jailene for over a week now. We decided our pup needed more midday exercise than we could provide, so Jailene swooped right in to come on time everyday: friendly, confident, professional, and no frills. My dog even looks cool walking with her! They get an uphill mile in each weekday for 30 mins and our pup comes back worked, happy, and relaxed. It's been very easy to communicate with Jailene and we trust that our dog is in good hands.”
About: Having a passion for animals had allowed me to be able to adapt to the needs of each pet I encounter. From ferrets to good ol' doggos, I am comfortable with all sorts of pets. I'm a Student Parent and being able to help pet parents in-between class and parenting myself is a perfect fit in my schedule. It allows me to control my schedule. Currently I am unable to keep pets in my home. My services are pet sitting or walking. Thank you for this understanding and I hope to work with you and your pet soon!
About: My mom and I had a loveable and adorable black pomeranian. I helped with potty training him from when he was a puppy. I thought him tricks, walked him, helped give him his medicine, groomed him, feed him & gave him water, and mostly loved him. Dogs are great company and are so loveable. I helped my ex with his tea cup yorkie. I feed him, gave him water, bathed him, cleaned up his pee pee pad, helped with giving him his medicine and I enjoyed his company very much. Dogs are not only our pets but a member of our families and can be at times like our little one. I miss laying down with my dog and my ex's dog also. Currently, right now I'm looking for a full-time or part-time job. So at the time being I have plenty of time to play, walk, feed & be your fur baby. I am available to board him/or her on the weekdays & weekends. I would always take out your pup with his/her harness or leash. I stay in a quiet neighborhood and I will always make sure he/she has food & water as well love.
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs for many years, including my own large-breed dog, so I’m very comfortable with pets of all sizes and personalities. I’m patient, responsible and calm in any situation, and I make sure every dog feels safe, understood and well cared for. Owners trust me with feeding routines, potty schedules, long walks, playtime and keeping their dogs relaxed while they’re away. I pay close attention to each dog’s needs — whether they are energetic, shy, or still learning. My goal is to give your pet a comfortable, stress-free stay and to keep you updated with photos and messages throughout the day I live with my Rottweiler and provide calm, structured, and attentive care in a home environment. I’m with the dogs most of the day, so they’re never left on their own and always supervised. I focus on keeping dogs comfortable, relaxed, and safe — whether that means playtime, walks, or just having space to settle in. I’m very attentive to behavior, routines, and boundaries, especially when dogs are staying together. I treat every dog like my own and make sure they feel secure, respected, and at home. I live in a quiet, safe home with great walking areas nearby. Dogs are always supervised and kept on leash during outdoor time, as I don’t have a fenced yard. I introduce dogs slowly, monitor interactions closely, and make sure everyone has space when needed. Safety and comfort always come first.
About: I’ve helped train, and care for dogs for several years, and I love working with all sizes and breeds. It makes my day to be able to work with dogs and be able to care for them. Currently have a flexible schedule, as I make my own hours and with part time work and online classes. Willing to work on weekends as well. I work well with schedules and instructions particular to each individual dog. I make sure to follow what the dog parents goals are when it comes to care, as well as bring a fun and loving energy to every dog I care for.

“If your dogs are your children like mine are, you definitely want someone like Alexandra to watch over them. I was able to leave Leo in her care for almost 3 weeks and I never once worried that he wasn’t getting the best love and care possible. In other words, I was able to enjoy my vacation! Alexandra is great!”
“John always takes the best care of Piper. Unfortunately my flights were delayed during both of my stays and on both occasions John was super accommodating and flexible. Will continue to book with him in the future!”
“Artem was incredible! Our other Rover sitter fell through at the last minute, and he willingly took in our pup that same day, so we could catch our flight on time! He was very responsive, and it was clear that he kept a safe and structured environment for the dogs. I would highly recommend him and will definitely call on him the next time we need our dog boarded. Thank you again, Artem!”
“Bodhi loves perla so so much!!! She’s always so helpful and flexible and cares so much for our boy. She’s also always got a careful eye on Bodhi and can give us a heads up if she notices something that we should be aware of. Could not recommend perla enough!”
“Elaine was an incredible sitter! She and her husband really know what they’re doing as they usually have a full house of dogs! My pup had so much fun playing in the yard with the other dogs, and Elaine sent me tons of picture updates!! Would use again in a heartbeat.”
“Took great care of my dog. Was finding a sitter last minute and she was able to take my pup in thankfully. Would sent photos of my pup to make sure he was doing good and he seemed pretty. Would book again”
About: I’ve been officially pet sitting consistently since 2024 and have built my client base through word-of-mouth referrals and repeat bookings. I grew up with dogs but through petsitting, have experience caring for dogs, cats, birds, tortoises, betta fish, shrimp, and chameleons. Most of my experience is with overnight stays ranging from weekend trips to 1–2 week vacations. I’m detail-oriented, adaptable, and take pride in following care instructions closely while keeping owners updated with photos and messages throughout their trip. As a powerlifter and active person, I’m comfortable with both short and long walks and can keep up with high-energy & strong dogs. I work in-office during weekdays but am available mornings, evenings, overnights, and am fully flexible on weekends. My goal is simple: to make sure your pets feel safe and comfortable while giving you peace of mind when you’re away. I work in an office Monday through Friday, so I'm most flexible on weekends. For pets that are comfortable being home during the workday, I'm available for feeding, bathroom, and walks before work, in the evenings, overnight, and throughout the weekend. I am detail-oriented, adaptable, and take pride in following care instructions closely so pets can stay comfortable in their familiar environment. I’m flexible to either board your pet in my home, stay at your home whether for drop in visits or overnight stays, whatever you and your pet feel works best for their comfort. Prior to the stay, (my home or yours), we will go over your pet’s routine and your expectations to make sure this is a good fit before moving forward.
“Armando was incredible! He took great care of our dog, was super responsive and sent lots of photos. Our dog came home happy and tired. We will definitely use him again.”
“Johanna and Dawson are great! They really pampered Bronn with lots of walks, toys, and attention. They sent tons of pictures and videos to keep me updated on how he was doing and were very responsive. Highly recommend them to watch your pets!”
“Sonish is fantastic! He was very communicative and we appreciated the photos/updates throughout the stay. He took great care of our two dogs with wildly differing energy levels (one’s a senior and the other is a little over 1). They both came back happy, walked, and clean. We would definitely recommend him (and Kobe) and will come back again!”
“Our dog had a good stay with Ronald while we were on vacation. Camo was well kept and we can tell he was very comfortable in the environment. We appreciated the days we received photos and he was always very responsive when we would reach out to check on our Camo.”
“Ziya took wonderful care of our dog and gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. She kept us updated with sweet photos and messages throughout the stay, and it was clear our pup was happy, comfortable, and well loved. We’re very grateful for her care and attention, and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a thoughtful and attentive sitter!”
“Quing was our very first sitter for our doggy after moving to SoCal from out of state. She sent updates multiple times a day and took such good care of our boy! We always felt great knowing our boy was in such great and loving hands. We will certainly be booking with her again next time we go out of town 😊”
“If you’re like us and your dog is more of a family member than just a pet, you can trust Edleuza and Jon Paul to provide excellent care. We needed a last-minute sitter for our two dogs, and Edleuza and Jon Paul promptly responded to our request. We were able to arrange a quick meet-and-greet the next day, and they were very flexible and responsive throughout the process. Their home is set up perfectly for dog sitting, and they even welcomed our dogs onto the bed with them. They provide around-the-clock care and attention and do not require dogs to be crated at any point. We received daily updates about our dogs and felt completely comfortable leaving them in their care. We would happily use them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for loving, reliable dog care.”
“I can not say enough great things about Gina and her care for my Gigi. Breaking this down ; I was in desperate need of a doggy sitter for a last minute wedding trip out of town. I found Rover online and gave it a shot. I came across Gina's profile and saw all her raving reviews so I knew I had to try her out . I was looking for someone who would take care of my Gigi the way I would ,and someone who would truly give Gigi lots of love and attention. Gina was that person! She was communicative from the beginning , even adjusting her availability to make my schedule work . She was nothing short of excellent in communication and transparency. The moment I dropped off Gigi, Gina gave a warm welcome and Gigi was easily taken with her. Gina sent frequent updates on Gigi making me feel totally at ease being so far away. Every correspondence was immediately replied to - loved it. It was obvious that Gina was experienced in taking care of dogs . Also, I could tell from the pictures sent that Gigi was super happy and comfortable. I recommend anyone that uses Rover to book Gina , you're dog will be in loving hands!”
“Christy and her family were so great and welcoming to our pup. He was loved, well cared for, and so happy when we picked him up that we knew he was in the perfect place. We feel lucky to have found Christy’s home and have no doubt we will use her again.”
“Katherine took care of our new Beagle puppy Ziggy for 5 days. It was his first time away from our family and our first time using Rover. Katherine’s profile met all our needs/requirements we had for Ziggy’s care so we decided to give it a try and we were VERY happy we did! We normally board at one of the local Kennels but after our experience with Katherine we will never use a kennel again. Ziggy was so happy and clearly well taken care of an pampered beyond our expectations. Katherine provided daily updates and photos of all the activities/outings Ziggy was on. She was the best and will be using her again for sure!”
