“So lucky to have found Cristal for our weekend getaway. Very easy to book with, great communication and she provided regular updates during our doggie’s stay. Would definitely book again.”
“Roxy has been under Anton’s care multiple times now and we feel very fortunate to have found him. It gives us peace of mind every time we leave for a trip or just need a few days of boarding. He gives you constant updates and is very honest with everything, roxy has found a home away from home. Thank you Anton!”
“We love Kathy and her family! Excellent care for our fur babies, we know they are taken care of when they stay with her. Daily pupdates and pictures which we love! We will continue to have our pups stay with her forever! Words cannot say enough about our experience. Super trust worthy, knowledgeable, and caring. Thank you Kathy :-)”
“I highly recommend Sujit. He's very flexible and accommodating, providing a great temporary home for pets. My dog instantly like him. He made sure my dog was comfortable and isolated from other dogs, per my request. I would definitely ask Sujit to sit for me again.”
“I had such an amazing experience booking with Deana. It was my first time booking with Rover and she was so understanding and kind! She is very knowledgeable and truly wanted to get to know my pup. It really put my mind at ease during my pups stay! She sent pictures and an update every day and it was so nice to feel engaged while he was gone. I definitely recommend Deana and will definitely book with her in the future!”
“I can’t say enough great things!!! Woody had so much fun and our vacation was so relaxing knowing what great care he was in we have a mini dachshund that is spoiled, rotten, and only five months old he is with us all the time and it never been away. He did so well with Angelina I would trust her with any animal. If you’re thinking of leaving your baby, you will not be disappointed using Angie. Best decision I ever made. Woody made a friend and will definitely be back.”
“Marilu and family consistently takes good care of our two dogs, they keep them busy with lots of fun activities and cuddles! You will never worry as you are updated frequently. There's peace of mind whenever we leave our dogs with them. Glad we found this family who genuinely treats our dogs as theirs!”
“Dipankar and Nagma were the most wonderful and caring hosts. They took time to understand my dog's needs and communicated daily with pictures and updates. They reliably attended to his medications and even worked on training my young dog to reinforce the commands he was in the process of learning. They have a wonderful and friendly dog of their own who served as an excellent playmate. My dog had clearly bonded with their family by the time I picked him up. I missed my dog very much, but was fully confident that he was in good hands with Dipankar and Nagma.”
“This was a great experience!! This was the first time our dog stayed with someone we didn't know and Ruth made the process so easy. We felt so relaxed knowing our dog was not only well taken care of but loved! Ruth sent constant updates and photos to keep us informed. We would definitely return and highly recommend Ruth!!”
“Cooper was genuinely cared for and very well taken care of by Rachana and her family! We were at peace due to regular and detailed updates about his settling in phase. Being an anxious pup, Cooper needs a considerable amount of patience and love to feel at home and he seemed to feel at ease very soon at Rachana’s place. Their pup is super friendly too and was great company for Cooper during his stay! Thank you for your care and affection towards Cooper!”
“Anu did an awesome job watching our two puppies for a week while on vacation. She was great at communicating and sending us pictures to keep us posted on the fur babies. Highly recommend!”
“Shuting and her family were great with our dog, she stayed for 2 weeks and when we picked her up she looked happy and healthy. And they even went above and beyond and gave her a (probably much needed with the rain and running) bath. We would have her stay again if needed :).”
“Shirley & her family were great. Duffy (my dog) had a great time with them and their two dogs. She was so nice to Duffy and I received great photos & videos my time away. I can not express how good it felt knowing Duffy was well taken care of. It made my vacation that more fun & relaxing. Thank you, Shirley and Family”

“Pratik and his wife are the best! They sent frequent videos and pictures to let me know how well our lab Frankie is doing and how well they’re caring for him. I highly recommend them to everyone.”
“Ishwori and her husband took such wonderful care of our cat while we were away. They were incredibly attentive, kept us updated, and made us feel completely at ease. What amazed us most was that they were even able to carry and pet him, which is very unusual because he normally hides the entire time when he’s with someone new. It was obvious he felt safe and comfortable with them. We’re so grateful for the excellent care and would happily book with them again!”

About: I’ve taken care of cats since I adopted one. During the pandemic I decided to adopt a black cat (shadow boo) who I adore. Then, when I got married I adopted another cat (Petunia) who I adore too. I learned so much about cats and learn many things I did not know before having one.

“We are going on vacation soon and when our sitter fell through to come stay with our dogs I came to rover.com in hopes to find somome I could trust with my dogs. After reading the reviews I decided to contact Kathy. She has been very helpful and suggested I come over and meet her and see her home first. We also did a trial with my younger pup today to see how she would do at her house. Kathy has the perfect set up at her home and provided an update on our pup. I highly recommend her!”
“It was my grandson’s first birthday and I did not want my small dog and her foot. I had a meet and greet with Joanne and I could tell that she was definitely a dog lover. She came and picked Dolly up at the house and dropped her off at 5 PM, she sent me pictures throughout the day of my dog. Super nice person and a dog lover. I will definitely use her services again.”
“Special thanks to Punam family for their patience with my rambunctious, puppy. A member of the family always greeted me with warmth and kindness.

About: I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs and believe every pet deserves to feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their owner is away.

I'm comfortable caring for dogs of all sizes and energy levels, including puppies that need consistency and positive reinforcement, as well as senior dogs who require extra patience, gentle care, and close attention. I always prioritize safety, maintain open communication with pet owners, and provide updates with photos so they can have peace of mind while they're away.

“Great experience from start to finish. I love how attentive Magin was with all of my pups needs. She also sent updates, pictures, and videos throughout his entire stay that really helped being away from him. It was our first time leaving Jack with anyone and we were so happy he was cared for so well. Knowing he was enjoying his stay through pictures and videos was the best part of this experience. Thank you so much Magin!”
“Rachelle was so nice an accommodating. She was so kind to accept our last minute booking and Tempi could not have been happier during her stay. We got Video Updates of Tempi and her new furfriends.”

About: I personally have 11 cats in our house and seven dogs. Most of the dogs are 30 pounds or less but we also have a golden retriever and a labrador. I have some experience giving medication but depends on how open your pet is to their meds. I currently work full time hours but have time for overnight stays on the weekends. I also have time for drop in/checkup visits and walks on Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday after 6pm. On Fridays I have time for drop in visits noon or later. Exact details can be discussed based on location. I only offer services in the comfort of your own home as I have too many animals at my house to make accommodations. Having your pet remain in your home will help them feel more at ease in your absence.
About: I helped my parents take care of there friends dogs since I was 8 and they've taught me a lot. Also my mom worked at Petco and worked in animal care and she told me and taught me what she's learned from her experience at work with cats and other animals. I've been currently looking for a job and havent had any luck so I have a lot of free time on my hands weekdays and weekends!! When we went to go sit my parents friends dogs we would feed them every morning and evening and then let them run around in the backyard they had a doggie door in their bedroom so for the most part the dogs had access to the bathroom to go potty and come and go as they please. But when we hung out in the living room with them since there was no access to a doggy door we would let them out around 3-4 times per day we would also walk them in the morning and sunset and feed them either before or after there walk depending on their actions and vibes
About: Animals have been an essential part of my life for as long as I can remember. I have always felt a special connection with cats, understanding their subtle language and mysterious energy. But my love for animals is not limited to them; I have also shared my life with dogs and all kinds of pets, learning to communicate with each one with respect, empathy and heart. I had the incredible experience of living in the jungle of Colombia, surrounded by nature and a great variety of living beings. There, I learned to observe, listen and feel the language of animals, understanding their emotions and needs in a deep and natural way. In addition, I have participated as a volunteer in adoption foundations, helping to find loving homes for rescued pets. I have also worked in the rehabilitation and care of animals with limited conditions, providing them with patience, love and the necessary support to improve their quality of life. Thanks to this connection and experience, I can offer conscious and personalized care, adapting to the personality and energy of each pet. Whether it's a shy cat that needs patience, an energetic dog that loves adventure, or any furry companion with special needs, I am committed to providing them with love, companionship, and security at all times. If you are looking for someone who will not only take care of your pet, but truly understand them and make them feel at peace, I am here to help! 🐾✨ I work part-time on different creative projects, which allows me to organize my time flexibly. This gives me the opportunity to fully dedicate myself to caring for pets when they are under my responsibility, making sure they receive all the attention, love and company they need. For me, caring for animals is not just a service, but a way to connect with them and share my energy and affection. My adaptable schedule allows me to adjust to the needs of each pet and its family, providing reliable and personalized care. Although I don't currently have pets with me, I have shared my life with cats and dogs, which has given me a deep understanding of their needs and behaviors. When I care for pets in their owner's home, I respect their routine, their environment, and their individual needs. I make sure to follow their instructions to the letter so that the pet feels safe and in harmony. In addition, I focus on providing companionship, affection, and personalized attention, always maintaining open communication with the owners for their peace of mind. My priority is to create an environment of trust and well-being for each pet, making sure that they feel loved and cared for at all times.

Puppies, kittens (bottle feeding ok 👍🏻), seniors, and hospice care • Pregnant animals and nursing mothers • Medication administration and specialized care plans • Medical, behavioral, and anxiety-related conditions • Fearful, reactive, rescue, and special-needs pets • Giant breeds (120–200+ lbs), toy breeds, and everything in between • Bully breeds, guardian breeds, working dogs, and high-drive breeds • Exotic and specialty felines • Birds, reptiles, and small animals • Multi-pet households My experience extends far beyond traditional pet sitting. I have spent years working with animal rescues and participating in Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) and community cat programs, helping care for and advocate for vulnerable animals. These experiences have given me a deep understanding of animal behavior, body language, trust-building, and how to safely handle pets with a wide range of personalities and backgrounds. I have also been honored to participate in efforts supporting families through the Make-A-Wish Foundation, including helping facilitate meaningful visits for children whose wish was to spend time with animals and pets. These experiences further strengthened my commitment to compassion, reliability, and providing comfort during life’s most meaningful moments. Caring for others—both human and animal—is at the heart of everything I do. Communication is one of my highest priorities. You’ll receive regular updates, photos, and honest communication throughout your pet’s stay so you can relax and enjoy your time away knowing your family member is safe, happy, and loved. 💗 What Makes My Care Different? • Personalized, one-on-one attention for the duration • Flexible and accommodating scheduling • Solo daycare available upon request • Extended stays welcome • Customized routines tailored to your pet • Calm, loving, family-oriented environment • Experience with pets requiring advanced handling skills • Care from someone who genuinely loves animals and understands their individual needs Many of my clients become long-term members of my pet-care family. I’m proud to have earned the trust of repeat clients who rely on me to care for everything from tiny teacups and exotic pets to giant breeds, working dogs, bully breeds, seniors, rescues, and pets with complex medical or behavioral needs. I understand that leaving your pet with someone else is a big decision. That’s why I focus on building trust, maintaining open communication, and ensuring every pet feels safe, comfortable, understood, and loved from the moment they arrive. I look forward to welcoming your furry, feathered, or scaly family member and giving them the same level of care, compassion, and attention I would give my own. Because every pet deserves more than just a sitter—they deserve family. 🐾💕 My schedule revolves around pet care already. Caring for animals has been a major part of my daily life for many years through pet care/sitting/walking etc, animal rescue work, and caring for my own pets. While your pet is with me, this is their time and all of my focus and attention is on them for the duration of the booking. This allows me to provide frequent potty breaks, exercise, enrichment, playtime, companionship, medication administration when needed, and plenty of supervision throughout the day. I strive to keep pets on their normal routine as much as possible so they feel safe, comfortable, and at home while you’re away. Whether your pet needs extra attention, a flexible schedule, or specialized care, I’m happy to accommodate their individual needs. Every pet is unique, so I tailor my care to each animal’s individual personality, routine, and needs. Before every booking, I take the time to learn about feeding schedules, exercise requirements, medications, favorite activities, fears, quirks, and any special instructions. Owner guidance and instructions are key to providing the best possible booking and any information provided will be followed closely (and greatly appreciated!). One thing that sets my care apart is that I do not use kennels or crates unless they are already part of your pet’s normal routine and you specifically request it. My goal is for pets to feel comfortable, secure, and at home—not confined unnecessarily. For families looking for a more personalized experience, I also offer accommodations such as Private Doggy Daycare, Private Kitty Daycare, Private Canine Camp, and Private Kitty Camp, where your pet can be the only guest in my care for the duration of their stay. I am always happy to discuss special requests and customize care whenever possible. Whether caring for a tiny breed, a giant breed, a working dog, a bully breed, a senior pet, or a rescue animal with unique needs, safety, comfort, and individualized attention always come first.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was a kid. But, when I acquired more responsibilities was when I moved in with my sister to SoCal and I started helping her take care of her dogs, two schnauzers and one yorkie. I would take them hiking, walking, and to the grooming salon. I would buy them enrichment toys and play with them every evening. Then, when I moved to NorCal for school, I adopted a dog, a Labrador. Now, I do the same as before but with more mental and physical exercise since my dog requires it. Taking care of dogs has always been part of me, my grandma was the same and that’s something she gifted me. I enjoy every aspect of it and the responsibilities that come with it. Dogs are a big responsibility and I will make sure to take care of your doggy, as if it’s mine. I am currently working from home so I have plenty of time to play and take care of your doggy. Currently with Hunter we go out four times a day, two times for physical exercise and potty breaks and the other two times only for walks to go potty. Hunter loves to play fetch and hide and seek. We hide the ball and he searches for it, this is his favorite game and it works for mental and physical exercise. We are very active and we exercise Hunter a lot but if your doggy is not like that, no problem, we can go only for walks and Hunter can play by himself. I have a fenced yard and a catio (patio for cats) where my cats spend most of the day. Dogs don’t have access to the catio since that’s the cats safe place. Hunter and the cats get along but my cats don’t play much with hunter, they are very lazy and only care about sleeping, sunbathing, and wet food. Hunter is VERY friendly, the nicest dog I ever known and loves to play all the time. Hunter has been around dogs of multiple sizes and ages from a 10 year old yorkie to a 2 year old labrador. Hunter is not neutered but he is not aggressive and territorial other than marking plants and trees outside at the park.

About: Animals have been part of my life for as long as I can remember, and caring for them comes naturally to me. Since I was 10 years old, I’ve helped care for dogs, cats, fish, and other beloved pets — learning that every animal has their own personality, needs, and way of communicating. Friends and family trust me to walk, feed, bathe, play with, and lovingly care for their pets while they’re away. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, happy, active, and genuinely loved in my care. I’m reliable, attentive, calm under pressure, and treat every pet like family. As a gentle added touch, I’m also experienced in animal reiki, which I’m happy to incorporate during visits if welcomed by both pet and owner to help encourage relaxation and comfort. Whether your pet loves playtime, quiet companionship, or extra patience and reassurance, I’ll meet them where they are with love, warmth and care. I currently work part-time. I have plenty of time to play with your fur babies. I am available most days and weekends, including most holidays. I have a fenced dog-friendly where your dog can roam and play. I have a beautiful lawn and a beautiful tree lined neighborhood for long walks.

He gives you constant updates and is very honest with everything, roxy has found a home away from home. Thank you Anton!”
“We love Kathy and her family! Excellent care for our fur babies, we know they are taken care of when they stay with her. Daily pupdates and pictures which we love! We will continue to have our pups stay with her forever! Words cannot say enough about our experience. Super trust worthy, knowledgeable, and caring. Thank you Kathy :-)”
“I highly recommend Sujit. He's very flexible and accommodating, providing a great temporary home for pets. My dog instantly like him. He made sure my dog was comfortable and isolated from other dogs, per my request. I would definitely ask Sujit to sit for me again.”
“I had such an amazing experience booking with Deana. It was my first time booking with Rover and she was so understanding and kind! She is very knowledgeable and truly wanted to get to know my pup. It really put my mind at ease during my pups stay! She sent pictures and an update every day and it was so nice to feel engaged while he was gone. I definitely recommend Deana and will definitely book with her in the future!”
“Dipankar and Nagma were the most wonderful and caring hosts. They took time to understand my dog's needs and communicated daily with pictures and updates. They reliably attended to his medications and even worked on training my young dog to reinforce the commands he was in the process of learning. They have a wonderful and friendly dog of their own who served as an excellent playmate. My dog had clearly bonded with their family by the time I picked him up. I missed my dog very much, but was fully confident that he was in good hands with Dipankar and Nagma.”
“This was a great experience!! This was the first time our dog stayed with someone we didn't know and Ruth made the process so easy. We felt so relaxed knowing our dog was not only well taken care of but loved! Ruth sent constant updates and photos to keep us informed. We would definitely return and highly recommend Ruth!!”
“Pratik and his wife are the best! They sent frequent videos and pictures to let me know how well our lab Frankie is doing and how well they’re caring for him. I highly recommend them to everyone.”
“Ishwori and her husband took such wonderful care of our cat while we were away. They were incredibly attentive, kept us updated, and made us feel completely at ease. What amazed us most was that they were even able to carry and pet him, which is very unusual because he normally hides the entire time when he’s with someone new. It was obvious he felt safe and comfortable with them. We’re so grateful for the excellent care and would happily book with them again!”
“Peter is very kind and easy to communicate and work with. Peter is accessible and transparent while you’re away, which takes one important task off your plate when traveling for work. I could tell Ziba had a great time given her excitement to play with Peter when we picked her up. Thanks, Peter. 🙏🏼”
“Tiffany was amazing! If you have an anxious/nervous dog, I definitely recommend Tiffany, she was amazing with my dog. Thank you so much for everything I definitely will be rebooking again!”

“Anthony is top-notch! He took great care of our King Charles Cavalier for four days. Anthony sent lots of pictures and videos of our dog playing with his dog, Kai. He took our dog on many walks to the local park and played fetch with the dogs his backyard. Anthony was very flexible with pickup/drop off times and had everything ready to go when it was time to take our dog home. I highly recommend Anthony for dog boarding and we will be rebooking with him in a few weeks.”
“Cindy was an amazing host to our Riley girl! I appreciated the communication, time taken to walk her and give love. Riley was a happy girl and we are happy parents. We’ll be coming back in the future. Highly recommended!”
About: What sets me apart is my calm, adaptable approach and experience with both puppy training basics and senior pet care. I'm reliable, attentive, and make sure every pet feels safe and understood. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I work part-time and am off during the summers and holidays, which allows me to spend a lot of quality time at home. I am typically out of the house for only 3–4 hours at a time, so pets are not left alone for long periods. I truly love animals and am actively involved with a nonprofit rescue organization, so caring for pets is something I am very passionate about. Their well-being, enrichment, and daily needs would always be a priority in my home. If your dog is not used to being around cats, I do have an in law unit (where my mother in law lives) that I can put the cats in during your dogs stay. This is also the case if I happen to be fostering a cat during the time of your dogs stay. I provide attentive, structured care tailored to each pet’s needs. In my home, we have a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor play and potty breaks, as well as a walking trail close to our house for regular walks and enrichment. Pets receive supervised outdoor time, exercise, play, and plenty of affection throughout the day. Because I am only out of the house for short periods (3–4 hours at most), pets are not left alone for long stretches. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, medication (if needed), crate routines, and preferred sleeping arrangements. I provide mental stimulation through toys, basic training reinforcement, and interactive play. I try to maintain their established routines to reduce stress and ensure consistency. Clean water, a tidy feeding area, and lots of love and attention are always part of my standard care.
“Lauren was professional, friendly, and kept us updated with pictures throughout the long weekend with Biscotti! He absolutely loved his time with her and they’re definitely new best friends now. We’ll absolutely be using Lauren again to keep our pup happy, comfy, and cozy whenever we’re away.”
“Biswas was absolutely wonderful with Ricky and Randy! He was kind, reliable, and clearly cared for them as if they were his own. Communication was easy, and the photos and videos he shared made us feel completely at ease knowing they were in great hands. The dogs were happy and well cared for when we returned. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with him again - highly recommend!”
“This was my first time using Rover and leaving my dog with a stranger, so I was a little nervous. Randi’s communication was great throughout the whole process and she treated my boy like he was one of her own. She even sent pics and updates during my trip to let me know how he was doing. I highly recommend!”
