“We had such an amazing experience with Joy and her husband Luis! They took wonderful care of Bodhi over the weekend. They were incredibly sweet and attentive, making sure he felt comfortable and loved. I really appreciated the consistent updates, messages, and adorable pictures throughout the weekend—it gave me such peace of mind! We will definitely book with them again.”
“I appreciate Don taking such good care of my dog while we were out. Our dog gets a little stressed when we are away but Don took such good care of her she was fine and I could tell she was fine and well taken care of. It was nice that we were able to go out and not worry about her! We appreciate it...Thank you Don!!”
“Joy was very helpful during our time away. We received pictures daily and she was quick to respond to any questions. We will definitely contact her again when we need dog boarding.”

“Brandon and Billy took fantastic care of Spencer while we were away. They kept us updated throughout his stay with photos. They went above and beyond to make him feel right at home. While we hate to have to leave him while we travel, we are so grateful to know what good and caring people Brandon and Billy are to our pup.”
“Jackson took excellent care of our little dog for overnight boarding. He was available on short notice on a holiday weekend, and always responded quickly to my questions and inquiries. He has a great home and our dog looked comfortable and well cared for. He sent photo updates as well. All of this put our minds at ease. I later learned that Jackson also does grooming. I highly recommend Jackson and will be utilizing his services again when we are in the area and also I will refer him to my family and friends.”

About: Hi, I’m Gema! I have 10+ years of experience in veterinary care and 8+ years as a professional dog groomer, allowing me to provide attentive, knowledgeable, and compassionate care while your dog is in my home. Pet care is fully integrated into my daily routine. My schedule is structured around feeding, exercise, medication administration, grooming upkeep, and close health monitoring. I provide calm, attentive, boutique-style care and limit the number of dogs I accept so each pet receives individualized attention in a clean, peaceful home. My veterinary background helps me confidently monitor health, recognize changes in behavior, and administer medications as instructed, while my grooming experience means I’m comfortable handling dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments and keeping them clean and comfortable. I focus on reducing stress and creating a calm, positive environment. I treat every dog like family and strive to provide a safe, clean, and loving home while you’re away.

“This was my first experience using Rover, and Gloria far exceeded my expectations. She took such wonderful care of Pepper while we were on vacation and kept me constantly updated with messages, photos, and videos. Her communication was outstanding and truly put my mind at ease. I never worried about him for a single moment. It was clear that Pepper was comfortable, happy, and genuinely cared for. I am so grateful to have found someone I trust and I will absolutely be recommending Gloria and booking with her again in the future. Thank you again so much!!”

“Elizabeth was wonderful with our dog. We were out of town for 13 days and it’s the longest we’ve ever been away.

About: I’ve been a dog lover my entire life, and dogs have always been a central part of my home and my heart. Over the years I’ve cared for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments, so I’m comfortable handling everything from daily routines to those moments when a pup isn’t feeling their best. I take pride in making sure every dog in my care gets plenty of walks, playtime, and the kind of attention that keeps their tail wagging. Whether your dog needs a calm companion or an enthusiastic play session, I’m here for all of it and will treat them like my own.

Never left us in the dark about what was going on and forthcoming with her schedule to make sure our plans aligned with it. We're definitely using her services next time we're in Palm Springs with our dog!”

I understand the patience needed for cats when meeting new people and being introduced to new environments. I now own a Maine Coon cat who I love and adore.

About: What sets me apart is my hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities.

When caring for pets in a client's home, I make it a priority to follow their normal routine as closely as possible. This includes feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication if needed, and giving them plenty of attention and companionship. I understand that pets are most comfortable when their routine stays consistent. I also keep owners updated with messages and photos so they can have peace of mind while they're away.

About: I work as a veterinary assistant and are currently in school to get my license. I love cats and take a special interest in feline emotional needs. I personally have 2 cats and 2 dogs. Pet care IS my daily routine as I work in the veterinary field and also have pets of my own. Pet care has always been a big part of my life. I currently have my own home where both cats are kept strictly indoors and have full range of the house at different times. My two cats don’t always get along so I take extra care to make sure litter boxes are cleaned daily and each cat has their own time to have the full house to themselves as to keep stress levels between them low. I was also able to completely fence my yard therefore both dogs are safe and confined.

I have horses and well behaved dogs that are my life (also very expensive) and I have knowledge of how to keep everyone safe and happy.
“Super communicative. I was in need of last minute cat care during a heatwave and Iliani (Eileen) was ready to help!

About: I've always had a love for animals, and as a pet owner myself, I understand just how much our pets mean to us, they're family. Being a pet sitter has allowed me to turn that passion into something I truly enjoy. For over 10 years, I've had the privilege of caring for pets as if they were my own, and there's nothing more rewarding than building trust with both pets and their families. I know that leaving your furry family member in someone else's care can be stressful, so my goal is to provide a safe, loving, and reliable experience that gives you complete peace of mind. Every pet is unique, which is why I take the time to learn their routine, personality, and individual needs. Whether your pet is playful and energetic, shy and anxious, or enjoying their senior years, I provide patient, personalized care to help them feel comfortable and secure while you're away. I have experience caring for senior pets, puppies, and anxious pets who need a little extra patience and reassurance. I'm also comfortable administering oral medications and supplements to both dogs and cats, and I always make sure they receive them exactly as instructed. In addition to caring for your pets, I take pride in looking after your home as well. I'm happy to bring in mail and packages, water plants, and help with other basic household tasks so you can return home to everything just as you left it. I believe communication is one of the most important parts of pet sitting, so you can expect regular updates with photos and videos throughout your trip. My hope is that you can relax and enjoy your time away knowing your pets are happy, loved, and being cared for by someone who genuinely treats them like family. I strive to create an experience where both you and your pet feel comfortable from the very first meet and greet.

“Natalie watched our Siberian Husky mix twice while we explored Joshua Tree Nat’l Park. She was awesome to work with and took great care of our older dog, who is on a few meds. We received several pictures each day and Blance was clearly happy when we picked her up and super excited when we dropped her off the second day, so we know she had a great experience.”

Whenever their schedules get busy, they know they can count on me to look after their pets and make sure they're happy, safe, and well cared for. I truly enjoy spending time with animals and making them feel comfortable while their owners are away. Whether it's feeding them, taking them on walks, playing with them, or simply giving them companionship and affection, I always do my best to make them feel loved and at ease. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, and I'm committed to providing the same level of care and attention I would give my own pets. I’m a college student currently unemployed, which allows me to have a flexible schedule and dedicate time to providing pets with walks, care, attention, and companionship. I create a safe, comfortable, and welcoming environment. In a client’s home, I will follow their instructions closely, respect their space, and maintain their pet’s normal routine. I make sure pets receive proper attention, care, and supervision while keeping their safety and well-being my top priority.
About: I have had dogs and taken care of dogs since I was a kid. I love all creatures and will pamper your pup! I know how important it is for dogs to feel safe and cared for while their owners are away and will give your dog all the love and attention it needs! I have a very flexible schedule which allows me plenty of time to spend taking care of your pet. When I do work, it's only for a few hours at a time, so I can stick with your dog's routine for eating and walking and such. I have a fenced yard with a bit of grass and one small senior dog who gets along with dogs and cats. I don't mind dogs on the couch and we have a cute park down the road for walks and outside play time.
About: I’ve taken care of my family member’s pets. I am very responsible and respectful. I’m aware that all types of pets have different levels of development. I am also patient and I guarantee you that I will care and love your pet and will be well taken care of. Taking care of pets fit perfect in my schedule, as of now I can take care of pets any day and any time. I’m excited to play and take care of them!

About: I've had dogs and cats all my life. I love to help them, be around them, play with them, and provide the quality care that they deserve.. I currently have a 17 year old Pug and a 1 year old kitty whom I live and adore. I believe all pets have an unique personality and I am able to adjust to meet their needs. I believe our pets are a member of our family and should be treated with loving kindness the same way other members of our family are treated. I detest any form of abuse, mishandling, or mistreatment of any kind. I love meeting new pets and getting to know them so I can take better care of them. I love all pets.

About: I love dogs and grew up having all types of breeds but I am any pet friendly. I have had snakes, tortoises, a bunny and now I have a cat! My dog knowledge comes mostly from personal experience that I have optained from my lifetime of being a pet owner. At the moment I don't have a doggy in my life but I need one. I would love to practice my trading, playing and dog walking until I can add a dog to my life but in the meantime I'll enjoy the company of any doggy that will let me. My schedule is very free and flexible. I work part time and do some volunteer work so even though I'm available 90 percent of the time knowing ahead of time what pet might need some attention would be very helpful. Now I have a fenced yard. It's small but there is a park just down the street. To keep the pet in my home, it would need to be crate trained since I have a cat indoors (at least I can know that both pets are safe. And if it's at a clients home then whatever works for the pet and owner. That may be preferable but it all depends
About: Human to Shadow, a 6 year old male. After adopting him as a 6 week old puppy, I became fully invested in learning more about how I can provide my pups with the best care while enjoying life together. I understand it can be difficult to finding the best match for the needs of your pups while you are away which is why I joined Rover as a sitter. My schedule for day drop in visits are by case to case, however, my evenings and nights are very flexible. For full day services, I am available Friday-Sunday. My goal is for pets to feel as comfortable as they are with their humans. I will follow any instructions provided and will ask questions as needed to ensure that the pets routine and environment are not disrupted.
About: I have taken care of all kinds of animals since I was 12 years old, I had every animal in the book ! Also my family members would always ask me to watch their beautiful furbabies, therefore I am experienced. I was always the first person they would ask , people who know me know my passion for animals ! Therefore you will have peace of mind when your baby is with me☺️ Before booking I do need to know if your babe is friendly with another dog as I have one myself, she’s very playful with either a cat or dog , if they have any food allergies, & description on your feeding schedule. Keep in mind, your mind will be at ease since they are safe with me especially with getting the attention they need. I also do have a three year old so they can’t be aggressive towards children. I currently graduated high-school and i do work part time other then that I am at home with my daughter so yes of course. If I am not home my hubby is ! So they will always have someone around, he is just as caring to animals as I am. I would love to meet your fury friend . I have a friendly shitzu , She loves meeting new friends , cats as well ! Very playful , at first she’s curious then she will warm up to her new friend.
About: Hello my name is Jenny, I've taken care of a few dogs through my high school years and cats. My family friends have relied on me to take care of their pets and their home. I have four dogs of my own who I love very much. I have experience with senior dogs who need more assistance than others. My dog walks with three legs, she is blind from one eye, and she cannot hear very well so she needs a lot of my attention especially because she is an older dog. I am able to bathe them, trim their nails (if they have clear nails), and I am very patient with puppies as well. I have a few loyal customers and they usually let me know ahead of time when they need me to pet sit so me schedule is mostly flexible. I am a college student and I have other priorities, but pet sitting will be my source of income so my schedule will be flexible through my daily and weekly routine. I have four dogs of my own, two male and two female dogs. Two of my dogs are very play full, they can get frustrate around other dogs because they are not used to new dogs around the house, but I could easily crate your pet. I do have access to a doggy door, so they come in and out as they please. I do not have a feeding schedule for my dogs because they have their bowl full throughout the day and night. My dogs are well behaved, but my two male dogs are not operated and most of my clients don't want their female dogs close to them which is understandable. One of my female dogs is old and can barely walk so she isn't around hypered dogs because I am afraid she will get hurt and she has been hurt in the past by pets I have cared for. Depending how your pet is around with other dogs it will be very rear for me to pet sit at my home.

“I appreciate Don taking such good care of my dog while we were out. Our dog gets a little stressed when we are away but Don took such good care of her she was fine and I could tell she was fine and well taken care of. It was nice that we were able to go out and not worry about her! We appreciate it...Thank you Don!!”
“Brandon and Billy took fantastic care of Spencer while we were away. They kept us updated throughout his stay with photos. They went above and beyond to make him feel right at home. While we hate to have to leave him while we travel, we are so grateful to know what good and caring people Brandon and Billy are to our pup.”
“Jackson took excellent care of our little dog for overnight boarding. He was available on short notice on a holiday weekend, and always responded quickly to my questions and inquiries. He has a great home and our dog looked comfortable and well cared for. He sent photo updates as well. All of this put our minds at ease. I later learned that Jackson also does grooming. I highly recommend Jackson and will be utilizing his services again when we are in the area and also I will refer him to my family and friends.”
“Elizabeth was wonderful with our dog. We were out of town for 13 days and it’s the longest we’ve ever been away. She was so sweet and gave some extra TLC to our dog who was exhibiting separation anxiety. She gave us daily updates and our dog was very well cared for. We will definitely use her again in the future!”
“She was very friendly and caring with our dog. She has a dog of her own and a few cats as well, obviously a very caring animal person. She sent us photo updates while our dog was with her and was always very responsive to our messages. Never left us in the dark about what was going on and forthcoming with her schedule to make sure our plans aligned with it. We're definitely using her services next time we're in Palm Springs with our dog!”
“I'm not used to leaving my dog with other people. I have a wonderful German Shepherd, but he's moma's boy. I think his day was as good as it could be. He had wonderful friends to play with and made some good buddies, which are her dogs so anytime he goes back those good buddies will be there. I think she did a great job I'm really pleased and yes, we'll go again! Trish and Keko”
“Maggie was amazing and took such good care of my goldendoodle over the course of a weekend. I loved getting little updates and photos throughout the day to know that he was safe and happy. Would recommend Maggie to anyone!”
“Our dogs stayed while we were at Coachella and we were so at peace knowing they were in such good hands. They sent photos and kept us updated throughout the weekend. Would highly recommend! Thank you!”
About: With a lifetime of hands-on experience caring for animals, I bring both knowledge and genuine compassion to every pet I look after. I’ve raised a wide variety of animals over the years, and from a young age I’ve always had a heart for helping—often taking in and caring for strays in need. Today, I continue that passion on my small ranch, where I care for animals daily and understand their unique needs, behaviors, and personalities. My experience includes feeding routines, basic health awareness, administering simple care, and creating a safe, calm environment for animals of all kinds. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, or needs a little extra attention, I’m patient and attentive to what makes them feel secure and happy. I also offer faith-based care, treating every animal with kindness, respect, and a sense of purpose. I believe in providing a peaceful, loving environment where your pet will feel at home and well cared for while you’re away. As a stay-at-home mom, I’m home throughout the day and able to give animals consistent care and attention. I check on them in the morning, midday, and evening to make sure they’re fed, comfortable, and getting the care they need. My daily routine allows me to provide a steady, safe, and attentive environment for every pet. I provide safe, reliable care by respecting each pet’s unique needs. I follow owner instructions closely, maintain a secure environment, and make sure every fur baby feels comfortable and cared for. You can have peace of mind knowing your animal is in trustworthy, compassionate hands.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs for at least 10 years, mostly with having my own. I know they are a big part of our families and how much we love and care for them. I am great with playing and cuddling and walking and absolutely love it. I currently work from home and so I have plenty of time to schedule dog walks, care and dog sits according to what is needed. I have a large green belt, that is very private. It is not fenced, but I have the ability to take the dogs out as much as needed. I also live in a very nice area where I have many trails and beautiful areas to walk.
“Ruby was lovely! She sent really great pictures and videos of Archie. He was in great hands, they went on long walks together and he loved hanging out with his lab buddies. I would love to bring him back.”
“kevin was very attentive and wanted to make sure he kept our pups’ routine the same. he was patient with our nervous pup. his pups were excellent with our dogs too. he is very responsive. would book with kevin again!”
“Caroline and Patrick were just fantastic with our Lucy girl!! During our meet & greet, I could tell right away Lucy felt comfortable around them which made our trip away so much more relaxing. They were great communicators with sending pictures and updates throughout her stay, took her on plenty of walks, played ball and had lots of cuddle time! What a relief to have found someone in the area that is so reliable. They will definitely be our first call next trip. 😊”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs of all sizes since I was a young girl, and animals have always been a natural part of my life. I’ve rescued dogs throughout my adulthood and loved every breed, personality, and quirky soul that’s come my way. Even cats — despite my allergies — tend to walk right up to me, which always makes me smile. I’ll still care for them with love (and a little help from allergy meds). I’m an empath with a deep, intuitive connection to animals. Nervous, shy, senior, or sensitive pets usually relax around me quickly. I read their body language, respect their boundaries, and create a calm, predictable environment where they feel safe and understood. I also bring professional caregiving skills to my pet care. As a retired massage therapist and longtime caregiver, I can offer gentle pet massage, calming touch, and support for aging, compassionate end of life care and support or anxious dogs. I’m comfortable providing wound care, administering medications, and injections for diabetic animal when needed. What truly sets me apart is the combination of lifelong love of animals, my experience, intuition, and genuine compassion. Your pet will be cared for with patience, warmth, and the same steady presence I’ve brought to every animal I’ve loved. I create a calm, predictable environment where pets feel safe, understood, and cared for in my Home or Yours. I will respect your home, your space, your privacy and the trust you placed in me.
