“Ocean had such a great stay while I was away! I got tons of videos, photos, and updates throughout my trip, and she looked so happy and comfortable the entire time. She ate well, slept well, and clearly had an absolute blast. She came home completely exhausted from all the fun, which is always a great sign! It gave me so much peace of mind knowing she was happy and well taken care of while I was gone. Would absolutely recommend!”
“I would give more than 5 stars if I could! April and her family took EXCEPTIONAL care of my pup, Monkey! She sent many updates, photos and videos while I was away that I never had to wonder how Monkey was doing. Will definitely book again. Thank you!! 🙏🏻 🐒 😁”
“It’s always a relief to find a safe and responsible dog sitter, especially with a last-minute schedule change. Even better, my lovely Goldendoodle, Rubee, has made a new friend.”
“We were visiting Las Vegas and needed last‑minute care for our two elderly dogs, and Diane truly went above and beyond. Not only did she welcome both of our girls on short notice, she cared for them for four days during a week of extreme heat — something they wouldn’t have tolerated safely. This was our first time using Rover, and Diane made the entire experience feel easy and reassuring. She was wonderfully communicative from start to finish, sending updates and photos throughout their stay. One of our girls, Sherry, had an upset stomach, and Diane was so attentive and comforting, letting us know she was keeping a close eye on her. Her kindness allowed us to actually relax and enjoy our trip, knowing our dogs were in safe, loving hands. We are incredibly grateful for her care and hope to use her babysitting services again. Diane is truly a gem, and we can’t thank her enough.”
“I truly can’t say enough good things about my experience with Jennifer. She took such incredible care of Pip and treated her like her own. From the start, she was warm, attentive, incredibly accommodating and thoughtful about Pip’s specific needs. She was also so communicative, sending updates and photos throughout the weekend that made me feel completely at ease. It’s never easy leaving your dog, but Jennifer made the entire experience seamless and stress free. Pip was so comfortable and happy, which means everything to me! I would absolutely recommend Jennifer to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring sitter and can’t wait to book with her again!”
“Highly recommend! 11/10 sitter! They kept me up to date on how my dogs were the whole time I was away with photos and videos. My dogs looked like they were part of the family. It was such a relief to know they were in such good hands while I was away!”
“Rajarshi is absolutely amazing! He watched our dog like as if he was his own child! He sent us regular updates with pictures and videos of what our dog was doing during the day! Gave him 3-4 walks during the day, played with him and took such great care of him! We will always leave our dog with Rajarshi! Rajarshi’s background and experience in fostering dogs makes him one of the most experienced & well rounded pet sitter who you can trust blindfoldedly! I would say that anyone and everyone can trust him with their pets! I wish I could give him 10 stars ⭐️ but 5 is the maximum we can give so giving him 5 stars!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“10/10 experience! Jonathan went above and beyond taking care of Charles, from long walks and homemade treats to lots of attention and cuddles - with plenty of photos to prove it! He’s incredibly knowledgeable about dog nutrition and clearly has a genuine love for dogs. I felt so at ease knowing Charles was in such great hands and would absolutely recommend Jonathan to anyone looking for a thoughtful, attentive sitter!!”
“I can not stress enough how amazing Susan was to work with. Her kindness and professionalism was such a pleasant surprise. You always expect someone who is watching your dogs to be kind and professional but she took it to a lvl I never expected and fully appreciated. My girls had a blast with her all day. She basically took them on a doggie play day for the entire day. They were pampered and loved the whole day. We were visiting the area in our RV and spent the day at Universal. We were not stressed at all worrying about our girls because she kept us updated with pictures and videos the whole day. We could tell from the videos that our girls were having a great day. If we were local I would hire her just to take our girls out for doggie fun days. 100% recommend her.”

“Glenda is wonderful. It's not always easy to find people who are good with large dogs. My very big guy loves going to Glenda's place. She has plenty of space for him to run around and comfortable areas for down time too. I highly recommend her.”
“Topo + Coco LOVE Ryan! Highly recommend booking with him if you need some help with your dogs in the West LA area :). They always come back tired too which is great for us coming back from holiday traveling 🤣. We appreciate the care he puts into them!”
“Carmen was wonderful with my little princess. She took great care of her and I feel like she listened to me and was very good at communication with me while she was taking care of Uma. Thank you Carmen”

“Heather was an absolute superstar dropping in on my cat while I was away - when my cat got sick while I was gone (every pet parents nightmare) Heather saved the day by being super accommodating and taking her to the vet!! Cannot say enough good things :)”
“Debora was excellent, friendly, and accommodated me under short time constraints (and great stress for me) when another pre-booked Rover sitter became unresponsive. So glad I found her! Great communication with updates and photos out me at ease when I was traveling! A+++”

About: The last two dogs I had were the best pets I've ever had, one in particular I took everywhere, hiking, running, swimming and even to play basketball. I even took her halfway up Mt. Diablo one time. I feel like every dog owner should expose their dogs to many outside environments, something other than there backyard or house. The only regrets I have about my past ownership is not taking my dogs out everyday. As an owner I believe that dogs should be treated more than just a convenient stress reliever. Dogs can be your closest friend so they ought to be cared for and treated like a great one. What I bring to the table is a genuine love for all dogs and an understanding of their needs. I can be fairly flexible on weekdays for visits and walks, but am mostly available only in the afternoon. Weekends, I am pretty much always available. House sits I can do any day of the week. To start off, I always start off by caring for the pet as outlined by the owner (routines, feeding schedules, medications, things to avoid, walks). But in addition to that, I like to have some fun with the dogs that I sit. I will play with them a bit and in general just hang out with them.

About: Hi! I can’t wait to meet your beloved fur babies! I spent the past three years working full time at an animal sanctuary where I cared for horses, dogs, cats, goats, and sheep. My passion is riding horses and hiking with dogs. I've owned & loved 4 of my own horses, 4 dogs, 6 cats and several smaller animals in my life. I am an avid hiker and love being outside on my next adventure - hopefully with your pooch next! It's a true pleasure to enjoy the company of your beloved dog, horse, cat or other beloved family member. I'm a lucky mommy of two daughters ages 11 & 9 years who love animals as much as I do. They often join me in the animal care. I can't wait to help spoil your babies! My schedule is currently fairly open and flexible. I am especially available early in the morning and later in the afternoon/evening. Sat and especially Sunday are usually totally open for me. I would prefer to go to other people's homes to care for there pets however I could take one or possibly two smaller dogs in my own home. I do not have a yard but I go on long walks and have trails all around me.

About: I have been caring for pets for decades and understand how important it is to know your dog is safe, comfortable, and genuinely loved while you are away. I care for only one visiting dog at a time in my home, which allows me to provide highly personalized and attentive care for your small to mid-sized dog. I work from home, so dogs are rarely left alone and typically only for up to 90 minutes if I attend a yoga class or run a quick errand. I also have experience caring for senior dogs and administering medication. I am patient, observant, and happy to follow your dog’s established routines so they feel as relaxed and secure as possible. My apartment community feels like a small park, with plenty of grassy areas for walks and exploration. We are also about a mile from Triunfo Canyon Park, which we visit often when the weather permits. My own dog, Chadwick, is a calm and friendly Chihuahua who enjoys sharing his home and cozy resting spots with visiting friends. My goal is to give your dog a peaceful, loving home-away-from-home experience with plenty of companionship, attention, and affection. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I work from home and already plan my days around caring for my own small dog, Chadwick. I am home most of the day and can provide regular walks, meals, playtime, companionship, and plenty of opportunities to relax. Dogs are typically never left alone for more than about 90 minutes if I attend a yoga class or run a quick errand. I also keep my schedule flexible while hosting a dog so I can follow their usual feeding, medication, walking, and bedtime routines as closely as possible. I live alone in a first-floor apartment and take full responsibility for every pet in my care. Because I welcome only one visiting dog at a time, I am able to give them close supervision and personalized attention throughout their stay. My apartment has a balcony with comfortable outdoor seating where the dogs and I can relax together. Dogs are never allowed on the balcony or outside unattended, and I always accompany them when entering or leaving the apartment. Just outside my door are grassy hills, walking paths, and plenty of areas to explore throughout my apartment community. I keep dogs safely leashed outdoors and follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding, walks, medication, sleeping arrangements, and household routines. My goal is to provide a calm, secure, and loving environment where your dog can feel comfortable and cared for while you are away.
“This is my first time using Rover and I am very satisfied. Melissa was a fantastic and reliable sitter for my sick little Romeo. Melissa did everything as I requested and kept my dog comfortable by cuddling, which he loved. 🥰 Melissa picked up my dog and brought back to the hotel with short time change request which I appreciate very much! I highly recommend Melissa and Rover!”

“She was very thoughtful when walking my dog. It was very hot and she brought her own water bowl for him. She was careful to keep him in the shade. I highly recommend Cassandra for your pet care.”
About: I have responsibly cared for animals since childhood and throughout my adulthood. Growing up my family home was always open to new pets - cats, dogs, mice, hamsters, guinea pigs, reptiles, you name it! There I learned the skills required to care for an animal of any temperament, I learned to adapt their unique needs and to help them feel safe and secure in your absence. I have years of experience as a trustworthy pet owner and caretaker of dogs and cats of all ages. I promise to care for your pet reliably, mindfully, and intuitively, pulling from years of developed expertise to ensure your emotional ease and their comfort and wellbeing. I have been building my business app-free but now I’m so happy to offer my services to fellow animal lovers through Rover. I love what I do, I’m flexible to your schedule, and I hope to offer you peace of mind (and lots of pictures upon request) knowing your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for! I work from home and my hours are flexible so I am able to provide your pet with the 24/7 care and attention they need. I live in a one bedroom apartment, if I am caring for your pet in my own space I have plenty of room for your pet to play. I love to be outside and am available for walks at any hour of the day.

“We were visiting Las Vegas and needed last‑minute care for our two elderly dogs, and Diane truly went above and beyond. Not only did she welcome both of our girls on short notice, she cared for them for four days during a week of extreme heat — something they wouldn’t have tolerated safely. This was our first time using Rover, and Diane made the entire experience feel easy and reassuring. She was wonderfully communicative from start to finish, sending updates and photos throughout their stay. One of our girls, Sherry, had an upset stomach, and Diane was so attentive and comforting, letting us know she was keeping a close eye on her. Her kindness allowed us to actually relax and enjoy our trip, knowing our dogs were in safe, loving hands. We are incredibly grateful for her care and hope to use her babysitting services again. Diane is truly a gem, and we can’t thank her enough.”
“I truly can’t say enough good things about my experience with Jennifer. She took such incredible care of Pip and treated her like her own. From the start, she was warm, attentive, incredibly accommodating and thoughtful about Pip’s specific needs. She was also so communicative, sending updates and photos throughout the weekend that made me feel completely at ease. It’s never easy leaving your dog, but Jennifer made the entire experience seamless and stress free. Pip was so comfortable and happy, which means everything to me! I would absolutely recommend Jennifer to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring sitter and can’t wait to book with her again!”
“Rajarshi is absolutely amazing! He watched our dog like as if he was his own child! He sent us regular updates with pictures and videos of what our dog was doing during the day! Gave him 3-4 walks during the day, played with him and took such great care of him! We will always leave our dog with Rajarshi! Rajarshi’s background and experience in fostering dogs makes him one of the most experienced & well rounded pet sitter who you can trust blindfoldedly! I would say that anyone and everyone can trust him with their pets! I wish I could give him 10 stars ⭐️ but 5 is the maximum we can give so giving him 5 stars!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“10/10 experience! Jonathan went above and beyond taking care of Charles, from long walks and homemade treats to lots of attention and cuddles - with plenty of photos to prove it! He’s incredibly knowledgeable about dog nutrition and clearly has a genuine love for dogs. I felt so at ease knowing Charles was in such great hands and would absolutely recommend Jonathan to anyone looking for a thoughtful, attentive sitter!!”
About: What sets me apart is that I genuinely treat every pet as if they were my own. I understand that every animal has a unique personality, routine, and comfort level, so I take the time to make them feel safe, loved, and at ease while you’re away. I work from home! We have a huge double fenced in yard. Animals are therapy. I had farm animals for years and ready to just give love to dogs and cats. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I carefully follow each pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any special instructions. In your home, I treat your space with the utmost respect while maintaining a calm, clean, and secure environment. I pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and needs, ensuring they receive plenty of exercise, affection, and supervision. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, loved, and as comfortable as possible while you’re away, giving you complete peace of mind.
“Glenda is wonderful. It's not always easy to find people who are good with large dogs. My very big guy loves going to Glenda's place. She has plenty of space for him to run around and comfortable areas for down time too. I highly recommend her.”
“Topo + Coco LOVE Ryan! Highly recommend booking with him if you need some help with your dogs in the West LA area :). They always come back tired too which is great for us coming back from holiday traveling 🤣. We appreciate the care he puts into them!”
“Marcella is awesome she is a very caring and nurturing individual! She is really great with animals. I will definitely be using her in the future for all my animals! Thank you so much Marcella! 😊”
About: I genuinely love spending time with dogs, and I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family member. As a dog owner myself, I know every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I take the time to make them feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you're away. Whether your pup loves long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or simply sticking to their normal routine, I'm happy to provide personalized care that matches what they're used to at home. I believe consistency, patience, and positive interactions help dogs feel secure and happy. I'm attentive to the little details, from making sure they get plenty of exercise and fresh water to sending regular photo updates so you can relax knowing your dog is having a great time. My goal is for every dog to feel like they're with a trusted friend, not just a sitter. Pet care is currently my full-time focus, which means I have a very flexible schedule and can dedicate my time and attention to the pets in my care. I recently moved back to Los Angeles, and I'm excited to spend this chapter doing something I truly enjoy, caring for dogs and helping give pet owners peace of mind. Because this is my primary commitment, I'm available for walks, drop-in visits, daycare, and overnight stays, including weekdays, weekends, and many holidays. I have the flexibility to stick to your dog's usual routine, whether that means early morning walks, midday potty breaks, evening playtime, or extra cuddle time. I provide a safe, clean, and comfortable environment where pets can feel relaxed and at home. I live in a townhouse with a securely fenced yard, giving dogs a safe outdoor space to play, explore, and enjoy fresh air under my supervision. I know every pet is different, so I always tailor my care to their individual needs and your preferences. Whether your dog is energetic and loves long walks and playtime or prefers a quieter routine with lots of affection, I'm happy to accommodate their usual schedule. I'll follow your instructions for feeding, exercise, medications (if needed), crate routines, and any special care to help your pet feel comfortable and maintain consistency.
“Karen was amazing with our dog! We don’t leave her with sitters often, but right away she felt comfortable and at home with Karen. We received lots of pictures and updates and felt at ease throughout our trip.”
“Our Monk took a shine to Miri and Phillip right away, and we felt assured they would take good care of our pup. They were patient and kind with Monk, and kept him busy with visits to the beach, and we got the feeling that they gave him lots of love while we were gone. We think Monk sees them as part of the family now! Miri kept us in the loop with pictures and video, and our puppy was happy when we got him back. We wouldn’t hesitate to have Monk stay with her again.”
“Lucero took wonderful care of my dog and gave her so much love and attention while I was away. They played together, went on multiple park outings, and Lucero even brushed her and spoiled her with treats. It was clear my pup felt happy, safe, and cared for the entire time. Lucero is incredibly kind, thoughtful, and trustworthy — your dog will absolutely be in the best hands with her!”
About: Every pet is different, and I believe their care should be too. I take the time to learn their routine, personality, and what makes them happiest, so they feel comfortable, loved, and safe while you’re away. Whether it’s a long walk, playtime, cuddle session, or simply keeping them company, I’ll care for your pets like they’re my own. You’ll also get plenty of photo updates and dependable communication for total peace of mind. I am a student at Pepperdine so it varies by day of the week although I am very flexible i’m free all morning untill 11 and most weekends. When caring for your pets in your home, my goal is to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I’ll follow your instructions closely—from feeding schedules and walks to playtime, medications, and any special care they need—while giving them plenty of love, attention, and companionship. I also understand that I’m a guest in your home. I’ll treat it with the utmost respect by keeping it clean, secure, and exactly as you left it. I’ll happily bring in mail or packages, water plants, take out the trash if needed, and make sure your home is well looked after while you’re away. My goal is for you to return to happy pets and a home that’s just as you left it.
“Thea was great match for both of my dogs, from the beginning, I really loved the idea of the meet & great, it is a peace of mind knowing that you don’t have to worry about the actual day! I would definitely rebook with her, for the near future.”
“Zues loved his time with Carter. He was treated so well, my mom was afraid he would not want to go home with her. The smile on his face said it all. Cater played with him, sent us pictures. Some great actions shots. Our Zues is very active and loves the attention. Thank you Carter for an amazing week with Zues.”
“Our dogs stayed with Annabelle & Ben for one night as a trial before our longer, upcoming trip. Everything went really smoothly and we appreciated their communication with frequent updates and pictures on how they were doing.”
