“Kimberly is a regular in hosting Abbie and I’m almost ashamed at how excited Abbie gets to go for a ‘vacation’ to stay with her when I’m out of the area. She always takes the best care of Abbie and I know she’s in the best hands when she’s with her! On top of that Kimberly is super accommodating and this time around even offered to pick up Abbie from another Rover nearby for me when I had to leave for work a day earlier which she was unavailable for. I couldn’t recommend enough!”
“Wow - I am so happy I found Caymin. I was heading out of the country and needed someone to watch my pup. Caymin definitely exceeded expectations. My dog Kyla can be skiddish around other dogs and experiences and being so far away from her can get a bit overwhelming. However, Caymin kept me up to date everyday, he was very responsive, and I could tell my dog had a wonderful time. I will for sure book Caymin again! Thanks, man! 🎉”
“I can't thank Carol and.Joe enough for taking care.of Mimi during my recent hip joint surgery. They were flexible with pickup dates and drop-off times due to surgery schedule. I was able.to.dropoff some of Mimi's fave toys and her pillow which l had forgotten. Mimi looked happy in the photos of her on her pillow that they sent me and videos of her energetic "sniff fests". When l was discharged they volunteered to bring over any groceries l needed when they brought Mimi back which meant a lot. Mimi bonded with Carol and was happy to see her. I feel confident and relieved knowing l can board Mimi with them when l need to. 5 🌟”
“Alisiene was very responsive leading up to our stay and also while we were away. I felt very comfortable leaving our pup with her and look forward to booking with her again! She was great with our small dog and even advised us with a few good tips for next time! Love that she made some home made treats for our pup as well, great experience, and highly recommend!”
About: I have a Mini Australian Shepard of my own who is 3 years old, whom I trained myself. He is very well behaved. Additionally, I’ve been a dog and cat sitter for friends and family over the past 5 years. My service will include lots of walks, love, and play time with your pet. I’m currently working part-time so I have plenty of time to play with your pups! I’m available all day on weekends and on weekdays after 6 p.m. Although I live in an apartment, I do have access to 2 fenced dog parks across the street and I live close to Balboa park which makes for great walks!
“Robin was an outstanding choice to watch our fur baby! You can tell that she really loves dogs and was happy to have Trevor at her home. She is an excellent communicator, responded to our messages quickly, and kept us updated with daily pictures of our pup. He was definitely loving his multiple walks and extra attention. I would happily book Robin again!”
“Haley and her partner made my first time using Rover for my baby Ryder a wonderful experience! I can tell from all the pictures Haley sent over and by the way he kept looking for them when we were driving away after pick up that he had the best time and was so loved on! Truly put me at such ease and I was able to enjoy my time being away knowing Ryder was being so well taken care of! Would definitely book again the next time I’m out of town. Thank you both! 😊”
“Alexandra is the best! She goes above and beyond to make my sweet shitzu feel at home and gives me peace of mind when we can’t bring our fur baby with us. She’s communicative, provides updates, and my dog loves staying with her.”
“Charlotte really enjoyed her time with Ashley! Ashley was communicative throughout, sending photos and updates every day. Thank you Ashley! I'm sure Charlotte will see you again!”
“Kaitlin and her husband were great! They were flexible and gave me regular updates on how my pup was doing during his weeklong stay. Plus, their place looked well-equipped for dog-sitting with plenty of water, outdoor space, a doggy-door, and beds. Thank you!”
“Alexis was so nice and took great care of Bubba! I know he had a great time because he was sleep within 5 minutes of getting in the car. She is on time and responds quickly.”
“Our Furbaby Miles was with Sam for 11 days while we were in Hawaii. We were concerned leaving him for so long but Miles looked like he was having a great time. Everyday he had lots of other doggie friends to play with and Sam sent the best action photos daily. We feel confident that Sam took great care of our baby boy and we will be using him again.”
“Ramona was incredible with my elder poodle, Lola. She gave great updates and really understood the care needed for her, being Lola’s specific diet or her separation anxiety, or any of her other quirks that required extra measures or attention. I felt so at ease on my long trip knowing that she was is such great hands. 11/10 A+++ would definitely book with her again! Can’t say enough. Ty again for everything, Ramona!!”
“Coco loves Ana and her husband! They really treat her like they would their own pup. They are super accommodating to her needs as an anxious dog with separation anxiety, and I know she loves the extra affection and attention that they give her while she stays with them. This is Coco’s second time staying with them, and we would book again with Ana!”
“Brannon was great and Cyrus enjoyed his stay. He kept us up to date with their trips to the park and sent pictures of play time. We will definitely book with Brannon again!”
“Maya enjoyed her stay once again! Thanks for taking such great care of her and sending fun updates of her day while we were out of town. She can’t wait for her next visit!”
“Gaby took really great care of our 10mo & 2.5yr old Shih Tzus. She kept in close contact & let us know how/what they were doing throughout each day she was sitting for us. She even snuck in a bath for each of them & we really appreciate the level of care she provided.”

“I booked Andrea last minute for some drop-ins and Andrea DID NOT DISAPPOINT!!! I will definitely book again in the future, she went above and beyond for the kitties and they warmed up to her almost immediately (they don’t really care for people). I appreciated the check-ins followed up with pictures 💚💕 Thank you Andrea!”
“Christine was amazing! She took great care of our two cats and kept us updated on them while we were gone. One of our cats has a medical need and she was more than capable of handling that and our young kitten with tons energy! I would recommend her to anyone. If I could give her more than 5 stars I would!”
“Hanna did a fantastic job taking care of my two cats while I was gone, and left everything at the house in tip top shape! Very pleasant, responsible, smart, capable. This made for a worry-free trip for me! Excellent and definitely recommend!”

Communicative, responsible, honest, and so caring! She took excellent care of my home and my cat! I’d book her again and again!!”
“Barb did a wonderful job looking after my cat Stella! She sent so many cute pictures and provided a detailed recap for each visit, which made me feel at ease while traveling.”
About: I’ve had cats since kindergarten and have years of hands-on experience caring for them at all ages and personalities. I understand their routines, body language, and need for patience and consistency, especially with shy or independent cats. I focus on keeping their environment clean, their schedule consistent, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away, with gentle attention and updates as needed.
“Madelyn was great! She was very communicative and super fast at replying. She fed my cat for me while I was out of town and everything went perfect. I will definitely be booking her again.”
About: I have 9 years of experience with cats starting from the moment I rescued my grumpy bestie, Stella, from the SPCA. Then, in 2021 my husband and I rescued a kitten who had been hit by a car in our neighborhood. Not only did we have to gain a street cat's trust, but we had to do so while administering three medications orally a day. Today, she is the most loving, needy, happy little tripod named Queenie who has taught us so much about patience, respect, and of course veterinary and medical care.
“Monica was great caring for Pickles! She sent detailed updates each day and Pickles seemed so comfortable around her, it made me trust she was in great care. I would have Monica watch Pickles anytime!”
“Alena was amazing!! My cat can be a real pain sometimes and she went the extra mile to take care of him and help out as much as she could. Even cleaned up a massive spill he made and replaced the towel. Highly recommend and super super nice and easy to talk to!!”
“Darya was amazing with my cat, as usual. I had to be away for almost a week longer than planned, and Darya was very adaptable and made sure Pepito had everything he needed while I was gone. She always sends me a photo and an update on not just Pepito’s food/water/litter box/etc, but also on his mood. Pepito always seems happy after spending time with Darya :) I highly recommend her for your pet-sitting needs!”
About: I’ve been catsitting my brother’s cats for the past four years, making sure they’re fed, their litter is clean, and they feel comfortable and relaxed while he’s away. I’m patient with different personalities and always try to make cats feel safe and at ease in their own space.

“Alec was wonderful. He took fabulous care of our dog and was in great communication. He reassured us with a photo soon after we dropped her off. He took her for a walk and gave her so many cuddles. She seemed reluctant to come home. ? We don’t live here but if we did we’d certainly use him again.”

About: I’m Janice, dog mom to a loving and sweet dog, Tsuki. My fiancé and I live in a spacious apartment and both of us work from home full time which means flexible schedules for walks and lots of attention for your pup! Usually on the weekends you can find us at the local dog park or going for a neighborhood walk. For more adventurous days we’ll go to the dog beach. My dog isn’t shy and will definitely try to play with yours so make sure that yours is a big dog lover as well. Looking forward to walking or dog sitting your pup in the near future! I work remote full time which means plenty of bathroom breaks and walks for your dog throughout the day. My dog and I have a daily schedule that yours will fit into easily. I live in a gated apartment building and in a walkable neighborhood. Lots of places to take your dog out for walks and I also am only a few blocks away from a local fenced in dog park.

“Hernan was the best! He was able to take my dogs within an hour of booking with him! He took such good care of them, they even got bandanas from a dog event he took them to! He was so kind and seems like he has a great setup for them in his apartment with a great patio!!! Will definitely be using him again! Thank you!”
“I inquired about a last-minute booking, and Gabrielle was incredibly accommodating and flexible with the schedule. She also took great care of everything, being very meticulous with feeding.

About: I grew up with Border Collies my whole life, so lots of experience with high energy dogs! I have 1 Siamese Cat, Bruce Wayne. I love all animals, and will happily watch your fur babies like they are my own. I respond quickly, and will provide as many updates as you need while you are away! I work remote, so I have a ton of flexibility on when I can come over and watch your animals and/or can work from there. I will follow your directions exactly, and take great care of your animals! You won’t have to worry about a thing while your away or busy
“Our dogs had the best time at Joseph and Chris’ home. We were in town just for the weekend and Joseph and Chris were very accommodating in hosting our pups while we went to the zoo. Communication leading up to the visit, and during their stay was phenomenal. Once we picked up our dogs, they fell asleep immediately, which is always a sign of a good time!”
“Melissa was very professional and took excellent care of Babe. She took her for walks and made sure she had ample opportunities to use the restroom. Her priority was that our baby was comfortable and well taken care of, thank you!”

“Tina is very reliable, friendly, and most importantly, great at staying in control of my lab Sheppard mix. There was no doubt that my dog was in the best hands while I was gone for days. Looking forward to the next time she can help with a stress free out of town trip.”
“Alex has been amazing! She took our pup on a few walks when we were busy at work and she was very reliable, easy to communicate with and responsive, and left us some great pics and videos for us to see! When Penny was too stubborn to go on a walk, Alex was so nice to play with her and keep her active! Highly recommend, definitely plan to use Alex in the future! Thank you, Alex!!!”

Violet went on long walks and also started her heat cycle in the last few days of our trip, which Monica handled perfectly! Would definitely book her again and recommend her to care for your babies❤️❤️”
“I recently had the pleasure of hiring Debbie to walk my beloved senior dog, Sam. Despite knowing that my dog is old and sometimes difficult, Debbie went above and beyond to ensure that my furry friend was comfortable and well taken care of during their walks. Debbie showed immense patience and compassion towards my aging dog, always taking the time to understand his needs and limitations. I could tell that my dog was in good hands and that he was genuinely cared for by Debbie. Not only did Debbie handle the challenges of walking an old and difficult dog with grace, but she also provided updates and feedback after each walk, giving me peace of mind knowing that my dog was in good hands. I highly recommend Debbie to anyone looking for a reliable, compassionate, and skilled dog walker, especially if you have a senior or difficult dog. Thank you, Debbie, for your exceptional care and dedication to my furry family member. 5 stars all the way!”
“Zaira is absolutely wonderful! Always reachable and communicative, and flexible when needed/possible. My dog loves her and she takes great care of him so I am never worried about him. Highly recommend :)”
About: I have cared for many types of pawed friends for years: elderly dogs (sheltie, dachshund, yorkie), hyperactive puppies (long-haired dachshund), untrained dogs (frenchie, goldy), etc with a wide range of needs including scheduled medications, frequent potty breaks, long walks, and extensive playtime! Hello! I just moved to downtown San Diego from Phoenix, Arizona as my wife begins her fellowship at UC San Diego Medical. Meanwhile, I am here (as well as my three-year old Terrier named Willie) to help with all your puppy related needs! I have a very cozy couch and a pet-friendly home. For dogs that come over, they will get to play with Willie and me!
About: I’ve been catsitting consistently for the past four years and grew up around dogs, so I’m comfortable with different personalities, routines, and needs. I take the time to build trust with each pet and care for them as if they were my own. I currently work Monday-Friday in the afternoons-evenings, so I am available on weekdays in the mornings and I am very flexible on Saturdays and Sundays I care for pets in their own home so they can stay comfortable in a familiar space and keep their normal routines. I make sure they’re fed on schedule, have clean litter or potty breaks, get playtime and attention, and feel safe while their owners are away. I’m respectful of my clients’ homes and treat every pet with the same care and attention I’d give my own.
“Every dog loves enthusiastic playmates. Phillip fits the description. He is consistently professional, friendly, helpful and always right on time. I need to feel that my older dog is safe when going out walking in our neighborhood, the city. Phillip "brings it", when he comes to see Colette...she feels at home with him and Phillip leaves the pictures to prove it. :-).”
“Darya was awesome! Took our dog on a great walk and sent us some adorable pics of him. We greatly appreciate her accepting our last minute walking requests. Will definitely be a repeat client!”
