“Ami is excellent! She has watched our dog a couple times already while we are out of town. Our dog loves her and she’s very responsive and sends regular updates. We appreciate you Ami!”
“My dogs looked so happy in all the pics sent. I would def be rebooking. I also loved the service of pick up and drop off. It definitely was a stress free experience ❤️”
“Sama was great! I reached out to her in advance about her watching our 2 senior pups while we were in the hospital delivering our son and she was super down to be flexible around his due date and take them at short notice. He came 5 days early and she was able to modify the stay and take them early that day. She sent daily updates and pictures and they were clearly very cozy and happy in her home. 10/10 would recommend.”
“These two are amazing! I was in a bind and needed my dogs watched last minute, and I am so glad these guys were available to step in. My dogs came home relaxed and happy! They clearly had a great time! Would definitely recommend!”
“We’ve now completed two trial daycare days and two trial boarding stays with Mark, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. Mello has separation anxiety, so we wanted to make sure she truly felt safe and comfortable before her official boarding. Mark has been incredibly patient, thoughtful, and genuinely caring every step of the way. He really goes above and beyond — he even brings Mello along with him when he’s out running quick errands like picking up pizza or McDonald’s, just so she can feel included and never alone. It’s clear he’s not just watching dogs — he’s trying to be their best friend. The biggest and most wonderful surprise: we had arranged trazodone for Mello to help with her anxiety and sleep, but she’s become so comfortable and happy there that she no longer needs it to rest well at night. That means everything to us. We’re heading into her official boarding stay next, and we feel completely confident she’ll have a great time. Thank you, Mark, for caring for Mello like your own!”
“Susan and her family are very experienced with dogs. My GSD stayed with them for a few days and I can tell she had a great time walking and playing with them and other dog and had peaceful time with cats. Susan sent me frequent updates with pictures which made me feel so much ease. I appreciate all her efforts caring my dog. I would definitely go to her next time without any hesitation. Thanks Susan!”
“20/10!! Savannah took amazing care of our pups!! Especially when it came to giving my one pup her eyedrops daily. She took the best photos and I could tell the pups had a great time! 100% recommend and would have our pups stay with her again!”
“Samantha was amazing with my dog! She sent picture updates daily and provided me with updates while I was away (all without asking which I loved!!) I would 100% recommend using her to watch your pets and will be booking with her again.”
“It is obvious how much Marwa loves cats and takes great care of them. She was a lifesaver for my Felix as he is newly rescued, was sick and not neutered so I had very limited options on where to board him, but she was happy to have him as her only cat for the week I was gone. He loved her and came back a happy cat.”
“Cerita went above and beyond the call of duty when caring for blue. She fed him snacks and made sure he was comfortable. I would definitely use her services again. Thanks Cerita.”
“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!”
“Araceli is fantastic. My dogs love being with her. She is always so responsive and she let me drop off the dogs two hours earlier than I initially asked for which was really helpful due to travel plans changing.”
“Our Frenchie stayed with Adriana and Cameron while we were in NYC for the week. She had the best time. We got 1-3 videos a day of her running around and claiming a stake on their couch :) They accommodated her needing to eat raw food and taking up space in their fridge. They were responsive and helpful and very timely. It was our first time using Rover and we had a great experience.”
“Marissa was an absolutely wonderful dog sitter. Our dog is older and needs a little extra patience and understanding, and Marissa handled everything with such kindness and care. It was clear from the start that she genuinely cared about making sure our dog was comfortable and happy. She was also an excellent communicator throughout the entire time we were away. Marissa regularly sent updates and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind and made it easy to see how well our dog was doing. Those little check-ins really meant a lot. We’re incredibly grateful for the attention and compassion she showed, especially with an older dog who needs a bit more gentleness. I would highly recommend Marissa to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful, and communicative dog sitter.”
“Melanie was great! She sent us updates every day and our pup seemed right at home. It was our first time using Rover so we were a little apprehensive but she put us at ease after meeting her and seeing how comfortable our boy was with her.”
“We’ve booked Bill and Todd like a dozen times now and they’re so awesome. Highly recommend them, it’s worth the extra couple of dollars for piece of mind that our fur babies are in good hands.”

About: I’m a caring, responsible, and active person who loves spending time with animals. I have experience caring for dogs, cats, puppies, and senior pets, and I love getting to know each pet’s unique personality and needs. I’m comfortable providing walks, playtime, feeding, companionship, and plenty of love and attention. I understand that puppies may need extra patience and supervision, while senior pets may need a slower pace and additional care. I’m responsible, attentive, and will treat every pet as if they were my own! I’m a full time college student with a flexible schedule which allows me to which allows me to make time for pet care throughout the week. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and sitting depending on my class and activity schedule. I’m organized and responsible about planning ahead, and I’ll always make sure your pet gets the attention, exercise, and care they need. I always put a pet’s safety and comfort first.

In a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and keep everything clean and secure. I’m attentive during walks and playtime and will provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for!
“Whitney has cared for my two kitties - one of whom needs daily oral medication - numerous times now. I feel so relieved, knowing my babies are in safe and capable hands with her. I had to travel recently for a family memorial service, an already stressful event, and Whitney was able to care for my kitties on fairly short notice, so I was able to be with my family. Whitney definitely has the attentive "mom" energy I want when it comes to my fur-babies. I highly recommend her.”
About: I grew up with two Newfoundland dogs and a pit bull, so I’m very comfortable around dogs of different sizes. I love animals and understand the importance of being patient, attentive, and caring. I’m responsible, dependable, and excited to provide pets with plenty of attention and care. I’m currently working part-time, so I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to care for pets. I’m available throughout the week for walks, drop-ins, and spending quality time with your pets. I’ll always follow each owner’s instructions carefully and treat their pet and home with respect. I’ll make sure pets are safe, comfortable, and given plenty of attention while in my care. I’m also happy to provide updates and photos for peace of mind.
“Mackenzie is an exceptional cat sitter! From the moment we first contacted her, her communication was outstanding. She was incredibly responsive to our questions and updates. Her punctuality was also remarkable. She arrived exactly when she said she would for every visit. She made sure that our two cats (they are really shy) were well cared for and happy. We truly appreciated the regular photo updates of the cats during each visit. Mackenzie went above and beyond, and it's clear she genuinely loves animals. We wouldn't hesitate to work with her again in the future and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring cat sitter :)”
“Elisabeth was so incredible! Cannot recommend her enough. She watched our angelic yet clingy Siberian 1.5yr old cat every day for a week for an hour plus. My partner and I were going out of town for the first time since we adopted him and were extremely anxious about leaving him. A friend of ours had recommended Elisabeth, so we interviewed her and she was the obvious choice! Once we left, she was communicative with how Wally was doing and updated us with photos every day. Upon our return, he was happy to see us but it was clear he wasn’t starved for attention! It made us feel even more at ease that he clearly hadn’t been stressed about our absence at all. In a world out there where trusting your little one to someone else (and having them in your home) can be scary and anxiety-producing, you def want someone like Elisabeth taking care of them. Hire her!”
“Brenda did an awesome job looking after my two cats, notoriously shy, she got them to hang out and play! I already asked her to do another drop-in, she’s super reliable and the cats seemed very happy with how much time she spent with them!”
About: Hi there! I'm a passionate teenage dog lover with a lifetime of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I've grown up in a home full of tail wags and wet noses—dogs have been part of my life since I could walk, and caring for them is second nature to me. I have years of experience pet sitting for friends, family, and neighbors, and experience in giving senior dogs the extra TLC they need. From gentle walks and soft beds to administering oral medications with care and patience, I'm dedicated to keeping your pup safe, happy, and loved while you're away. Whether your dog is playful and energetic or calm and cuddly, I tailor my care to fit their unique needs and routine. I'm dependable, attentive, and treat every pet like they’re my own. You can expect lots of pictures and updates as I value communication to limit your worries and ensure that your dogs are being properly taken care of while you are away! Let me give your furry friend all the love and attention they deserve. Your dog will be in great hands—and you’ll have peace of mind every step of the way! 💕🐶 I am student at San Diego State University so I do have a routine class schedule but aside from that I am free and flexible to work around my classes. I am available to provide service at client’s home daily. I am able to do potty breaks, love check-ins, walks, runs and outdoor adventures at whatever time frame works best for your pet’s lifestyle. I will keep clients’ homes clean and locked when I’m not there to ensure the safety of your home and pups!
“Caity is a wonderful cat sitter. Kind, patient communicative, and thorough, she took incredible care of our beloved cat, Kuma, over 2 days. She took the time to get to know Kuma and make him comfortable with her presence. She quickly read his moods and needs, and made Kuma's first extended stint alone as easy as possible for both him and us - going well above and beyond what we had hoped. She sent us multiple fantastic photos and a report on how he was doing each visit - very comforting for two first-time cat owners. We'd work with her again in a heartbeat and are so happy to have found Caity!”
“It was my first time using Rover, and I was out of town for the Christmas holiday needing someone to check in on my cat. Callahan did a fantastic job! She cleaned his litter box, refreshed his water, and made sure he got lots of love and attention. She was incredibly communicative, prompt, and responsible throughout the entire stay. I would absolutely recommend her and would happily book with her again!”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 15 years old and I’ve always had a genuine love for animals. Over the years I’ve looked after pets of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels, making sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for. I’ve volunteered at adoption and rescue centers. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, or simply giving them plenty of attention and affection, I treat all pets like they’re a part of the family. I’m dependable, patient, and committed to providing loving care while you’re away.
About: Doggy Mama of 10 years for my sweet Wheaten Terrier, Suki! I have been with her for all stages of life: curious puppy, energetic teenager, and mellow adult. This has taught me how to adjust towards whatever needs your pet may have. No matter the attention your furry friend needs— whether it be downtime and cuddles, or zoomies and long walks— I am here to provide! I can administer medication, and will easily adapt to the schedule/routine that your pet requires. I am a sophomore student at San Diego State University, majoring in Criminal Justice. I have classes Monday-Thursday starting at 12:00pm and ending by 4:00pm. I live on campus and have a car so transportation is not an issue. I am able to pet sit at anytime throughout the week that I don’t have classes- and am willing to stay over night and/or through the weekends. Caring for your companion will vary depending on personality and routine but there are definitely some core principles that I carry with me. First one being respect— respect of your home, respect of your animals needs and wants, and respect of your time. I will be present as much as I can be, even if that means just sitting in the same room as them. Another core value, depending on your pet, is exercise. It doesn’t matter if it’s a long walk, a short and slow walk, or even just interacting with toys— something that gets them moving and keeps them entertained. And a big one is love, I promise to absolutely adore your animal and show them kindness in whatever ways they need. That could look like self care: brushing their coat, massaging stiff joints. That could look like affection: rubbing on them, talking to them, and making sure they know i’m here for them. And that could also mean giving them space. Any adjustment that I can make to give you and your pet a smooth experience, I would love to do.
About: I've taken care of cats since I was 10. I have had 3 cats so I know what it's like as an owner needing someone who is gentle and considerate with their animals. I have many years of experience house sitting and taking care of many peoples animals including cats from all ages.
About: From walking dogs for a dollar in elementary to being a full time ranch hand — taking care of animals of all kinds comes naturally to me! I’m really fortunate to work a job that allows me to be home over half the day! Outside of an ideal work schedule — I also love a very active lifestyle that I bring my own pets (and I’d bring yours) along with! Pets are like family members in my apartment. Although the indoor space is not huge, there is no space off limits to my furry friends and they are always within reach!

“Michelle was great with our anxious senior pup! He has separation anxiety and she created a very calming environment for him to hang out at and had a great system to ensure that he was comfortable. She was communicative and easy to plan with. We’ll definitely book with her again!”
“Todd and Bill are responsible and experienced dog care providers. Accommodating and considerate of their clients, they give me piece of mind that my wonderful dog is in good hands.”
About: I only accept one doggie family at a time, so your dog(s) will be the only ones here for boarding and doggie day care. I wanted to create a safe place for reactive dogs, little loners, and calm senior doggies who just want a place they can be themselves and have my full attention! I am a dog-lover with my whole life of experience in caring for them. I have had them in all shapes and sizes - my first two dogs being big German Shepherds to my last dog which was a little Maltipoo, and a few in between. I have potty trained quite a few dogs in my life, as well as helped them through their senior years. Most important of all, I will love your pets like they're my own children! 🩷 I'm currently working part time from home so I have plenty of availability to take your pup outside for potty breaks or walks and give them attention throughout the day. I have a safe, fenced yard with plenty of room for sniffing and sunshine. Big dogs will have room to run and fetch. I also have senior dog care items like a step to get on the couch. I allow dogs to be free in the house, they are never crated unless the owner specifically requests it as part of their nightly routine. In that case - I have a long gate that can be made into a pen, and a cage for a small dog, if requested. Pets are family here - I have always allowed my own pets on the couch or bed and will do the same for yours unless you prefer otherwise.
“Whitney was great! Ghost is home sleeping like a baby. I’m glad she enjoyed her time with Whitney, and we have a person we trust to take Ghost to when we need it. I appreciate the updates and communication.”
“Mark has been wonderful to work with. Our dog, Mello, has some anxiety around new environments, so we arranged a test daycare day before the official boarding dates. Mark has been incredibly patient and thoughtful in helping Mello get comfortable. We really appreciate how willing he is to work with us and plan a few more test daycare and boarding days ahead of the actual stay. It’s clear he truly cares about making sure the dogs in his care feel safe and supported. Based on this experience, we’re very confident Mello will have a great time during his upcoming stays.”
“She's great. My dog has never been with anyone but family and she is able to comfort him. With my schedule changing, it is wonderful having her as a backup for work. Like I said, she's great.”
“Mrs. Shyrah is awesome! I brought my 2 dogs - Athena (Rottweiler) and Ava (Chihuahua/Dachshund) - to her care, and despite them both being very shy of new people, I was told they did wonderfully, they were so calm and friendly to her at her home. She let both of them feel welcome and let them acclimate to the environment at their own pace. She often sent me pictures and updated me on how they were, which was so great to see. I will 100% be booking Mrs. Shyrah again in the nearby future for all daycare and overnight stays! She’s awesome and my dogs love her! 💕”
“William is super awesome. He took great care of our young pup and was a very cool and funny guy to boot. He was definitley flexible and super responsive. He’ll be a great buddy for my buddy going forward.”
“Alyssa was fantastic! She responded promptly, she provided great care and feedback, she has a great setup, and I'm looking to book her again this week and beyond!”
About: I’ve grown up around both big and small dogs, including Labs and Chihuahuas, as well as Dobermans, and German Shepherds. I’m very comfortable caring for pets with different personalities and needs. I currently live with a roommate who has a Lab and a cat, so I’m around both dogs and cats regularly. I’ve also had experience pet sitting for friends, family, and others, and I understand how important it is to make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I’m responsible, attentive, and happy to follow each pet’s individual routine and needs. I am currently working part-time that is during the day. So I can work evenings, the weekends and sometimes during the week on my days off. My apartment is clean and pretty big. There is a lot of places to walk the dog and go to the bathroom near my apartment
About: As a healthcare professional, I bring a calm, detail-oriented, and safety-first approach to pet care. Beyond caring for my own yellow Lab, Simba, I have spent over seven years professionally and personally watching dogs for family members and friends. I understand how important it is to find someone reliable and trustworthy for your pets. Whether your dog needs medication administration, senior care, energetic play, or just a dependable companion while you are away, I provide attentive, compassionate care tailored to their exact needs. I currently work part-time from home, which means I have plenty of flexibility to give your pups constant attention, playtime, and potty breaks throughout the day. I live in a pet-friendly apartment community equipped with an on-site dog park, providing a fantastic environment for daily walks and safe outdoor play to help your dog burn off energy. My home is a clean, secure, and welcoming space, and I am happy to accommodate any specific crating routines or safety preferences your dog requires.
“Had a last minute trip and Melanie was able to accommodate us. She was very informative, sent pictures and let us know how she was doing. I would love to use Melanie again when we are in town.”
“Gladys was a wonderful host for my Layla girl! Gladys' kind spirit and attentiveness to my pup's needs made me feel reassured that she would be well taken care of. Layla came home a happy puppy after her daycare, and I would recommend Gladys for your Pup care needs. Thank you!”
“Kylie is very responsive and communicates well, which I appreciate. My dog enjoys his days playing with their 2 dogs and others they care for. I’ll definitely continue using their services.”
“Rebecca was amazing. I requested the night before, and she made room for Pancake the next day. She had an amazing time playing with the other dogs and kiddos at the house and came home to zonk out. Thank you so much for giving her such fun days!”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life. I had 2 labs and a German Shepard growing up. I currently help dog sit and walk my neighbors dogs and my schedule is extremely flexible I currently have an extremely flexible schedule so I can work Monday through Sunday and I am willing to work with anyone on fitting my schedule around their needs. I currently live in a small ADU Unit in a backyard that is fenced off from my neighbors who own two friendly dogs, due to how small my unit is I would prefer to stay at a clients home if I needed to dogsit overnight!
“I booked Audrey for a last minute walk and they were super accommodating! Very experienced with senior dogs, just like what my Laddie needed. Was happy it went so smoothly while I was up in Burbank and got all cute pictures of him.”
“Whitney is a true pet lover. She is very thoughtful, communicative, and caring. Our dogs and I look forward to many future visits with her. Many thanks from everyone in our family, Whitney!”

About: I’ve taken care of animals for over 14 years. Friends, neighbors, family, friends of friends, I’ve spent 20+ weekends a year house/pet sitting, and have averaged 3 dog walks a week for the last 3 years. I also have my Dog, Cat, and Pet First Aid Certificate as well as my Pet CPR Training Certificate from American Red Cross. Right now, I’m taking online courses for my profession. In between classes I would like to take breaks by taking care of animals. It’s both a stress reliever and something I love to do. I keep an eye out for any safety concerns or measures that need to take place to ensure the safety of your animals. Safety is key!
About: I absolutely love animals. I have a cuddly black cat and big german shepard back home in CO. I've grown up taking care of them, and also regularly pet sit and walk dogs for friends and neighbors. Their pets are always excited to see me and feel safe around me. I am currently a college student and have random free time, mostly afternoons and evenings as well as weekends. I have a car so can easily commute to and from school and work. I make sure to ask the clients how best to care for their pets and anything I may need to know. I love to play with lots of toys, go on long walks, and give cuddles to pets that like cuddles!
“Caity was absolutely wonderful with Louie! She was so attentive and kept us updated on his itchy paws and sensitive tummy. She even went out of her way to apply his paw mousse and found ways to keep him happy and entertained on those super hot days. I really trusted her with Louie and felt so comfortable knowing he was in great hands. Would definitely recommend Caity and will absolutely book her again!”
About: I've been surrounded by animals my whole life by dogs, cats, birds, fish, turtles, and at 40+ years in, my love for them has only grown. I've pet sat for many households and have a natural ability to handle all kinds of personalities, energy levels, and needs. I'm a verified member of Trusted House Sitters (in which the primary is pet sitting), and I take that seriously. I'm experienced with medically complex pets. I've administered subcutaneous fluids, insulin injections, and oral medications. I also have cared for special needs animals including a three-legged seizure-prone Chihuahua, a teacup Chihuahua with broken elbows, and a German Shepherd with cow-hocks disease. If your pet has extra needs, they're in capable hands. My approach is calm, grounded, and playful and animals feel it. I'm a certified hypnotherapist and life coach, and the same energy awareness and patience I bring to people, I bring to pets. Anxious, shy, and difficult animals tend to soften around me naturally. My sister didn't call me the Cat and Dog Whisperer for nothing. :D I have a soft spot for the ones others overlook. I've rescued an abandoned Chihuahua-Terrier, adopted a shelter pup, and my two boys Bruce and Charlie came to me as feral kittens nobody else wanted. Every animal deserves patience, consistency, and genuine love and that's exactly what I bring to every walk and drop-in. I'm a San Diego local with regular availability in LA County as well, so wherever you are, I've got you covered. My schedule is flexible and I'm available most weekdays and select weekends, morning through evening. I don't operate on a rigid 9-to-5, which means I can work around your pet's needs rather than the other way around. Outside of pet care, I'm an active, outdoorsy person and love hiking, kayaking, and paddleboarding. That energy carries directly into every walk and drop-in. Your dog won't just get a stroll around the block, they'll get someone who genuinely loves being outside and moving. Your pet's safety and your peace of mind are my top priorities always. I follow your established routines closely and take detailed instructions seriously. Every home, every pet, and every owner is different, and I respect that. When I'm in your home I treat it with care. I leave things as clean or cleaner than I found them. Your space and your pet's environment will be respected. I'm extremely mindful of doors and escape artists. I know how quickly a curious pet can bolt, and I create my own blockades when needed to make sure no one slips out unexpectedly. I'm comfortable walking multiple dogs simultaneously including large, high-energy breeds. I've walked a Rottweiler and German Shepherd together, both with strong pulling tendencies, and handled them with confidence. You'll never wonder how your pet is doing. I send photos and updates daily including sometimes multiple times a day because I know how much you miss them and how much it means to see a happy face pop up on your phone. I also have hands-on experience with pet first aid, including applying Quik Stop for bleeding so minor mishaps are handled calmly and quickly without panic. Your home, your routines, your pet I've got all of it handled.
About: I recently graduated from New Mexico State University and moved to San Diego. I have been a pet sitter/walker for about 5 years for friends and friends of friends in my community, as well as taking care of my own for 15 years. I have one sweet chihuahua and a torti cat! I have experience walking different dogs as I volunteered for dog walking for Petsmart and Petco when they have adoptions. I am responsible, kind-hearted, and compassionate for animals. While in my care, I will always ensure the safety of your pets as if they were my own. This is currently my only job so I am able to be with your pets as often or as long as needed! I know some pets may require more attention than others and can work with their schedule. I will treat your pet just like I do mine. Plenty of attention, make sure they have food, plenty of water, and any other special things they like during the day
About: I’ve been caring for and walking dogs ever since I was 10. I’ve handled both puppies and older dogs. I love spending time with all dogs and making them feel as special as they are. By giving walks, cuddles, and attention your dog is sure to feel happy and safe with me I’m taking online classes which makes me currently completely available and flexible to taking care of your pets. I can adjust to whatever you need in order to take care of your furry friend. Walks, playtimes, and attention anytime during the day will bring me absolute joy. When caring for your furry friends, I will treat your space as such I do mine. I will follow your instructions carefully and ensure that I leave you home as you left it. I will provide updates whenever taking care of your pets and make sure your furry friends receives the love they deserve

About: Full time pet care professional - your pets are my priority! I’ve never met a dog I didn’t love, and I can’t wait to meet yours! Every pet is unique, with their own personality, and I am excited to take care of them and earn their trust to become a reliable sitter that they enjoy seeing. Fast paced and playful or laid-back and lounging, conforming to your pets lifestyle is important to me - I also send updates at least once a day, as well as pictures, so you don’t miss your babies too much! About Me: As a full time sitter, I get lots of 1 on 1 time with my furry guests! I love having a head to pet or ball to throw throughout the day, and spend a majority of my time at home with my ever-growing, extended fur-family. I have extensive experience with fear-free basic training, including walk fundamentals, as well as trust building training and practices. I am also well versed in administering medications (liquid, pill, and subcutaneous) to pets with special needs and health conditions, including senior dogs (I love a frosted face!) I have a darling, 15 year old, Chinese Crested named Kovu who spends her golden years napping and welcoming her furry friends with a sniff and a shake. Having two special needs dogs in recent years, I know how hard it is to leave your little loves behind. I am also independently insured as a pet sitter, daycare provider, pet trainer, and pet taxi through Pet Care Insurance (PCI). About My Home: My home features a large, fenced-in yard on a quiet street with tons of space for pups to run around and play. When the weather allows, they’re given free rein of the inside and outside of my home. The maximum time a dog is ever alone in my home is 2 hours (when I need to grocery shop or go to an appointment), but there is always a dog-loving adult family member home in case of an unexpected emergency. I am not a sitter who boards as many pets as possible, as that is too stressful on the dogs and is not the kind of care I would want my baby to receive. I only allow up to 2 pet families to book on any day, and my rates reflect the individual attention, love, and calm environment that your pups receive in my care. I like to have a hands-on approach when pet sitting, and anything we can do together, we do together! Pups love coming over to my home because they know they’re in for a fun time!
About: I've taken care of dogs since I was 14 years old. As a dog mom myself, I know first hand how hard it is to leave them with strangers and I'm here to help make sure that your fur baby feels well cared for! I'm home full time so your pup will not be alone most of the time. As a dog mom, I spend my day caring for the dogs and making sure their needs are met. In our home, your dog is part of our family. I have a fenced yard they can run in and will always be supervised. We have dog beds available to lounge around and crates if requested.
“Aria has watched and cared for Sierra prior to me joining rover. She has done a great job communicating with me and taking care of Sierra. This included overnights and giving her a pill each day. She has a dog of her own named Millie who gets along with Sierra.”

“Ami is excellent! She has watched our dog a couple times already while we are out of town. Our dog loves her and she’s very responsive and sends regular updates. We appreciate you Ami!”
“We’ve now completed two trial daycare days and two trial boarding stays with Mark, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. Mello has separation anxiety, so we wanted to make sure she truly felt safe and comfortable before her official boarding. Mark has been incredibly patient, thoughtful, and genuinely caring every step of the way. He really goes above and beyond — he even brings Mello along with him when he’s out running quick errands like picking up pizza or McDonald’s, just so she can feel included and never alone. It’s clear he’s not just watching dogs — he’s trying to be their best friend. The biggest and most wonderful surprise: we had arranged trazodone for Mello to help with her anxiety and sleep, but she’s become so comfortable and happy there that she no longer needs it to rest well at night. That means everything to us. We’re heading into her official boarding stay next, and we feel completely confident she’ll have a great time. Thank you, Mark, for caring for Mello like your own!”
“Susan and her family are very experienced with dogs. My GSD stayed with them for a few days and I can tell she had a great time walking and playing with them and other dog and had peaceful time with cats. Susan sent me frequent updates with pictures which made me feel so much ease. I appreciate all her efforts caring my dog. I would definitely go to her next time without any hesitation. Thanks Susan!”
“20/10!! Savannah took amazing care of our pups!! Especially when it came to giving my one pup her eyedrops daily. She took the best photos and I could tell the pups had a great time! 100% recommend and would have our pups stay with her again!”
“Samantha was amazing with my dog! She sent picture updates daily and provided me with updates while I was away (all without asking which I loved!!) I would 100% recommend using her to watch your pets and will be booking with her again.”
“Cerita went above and beyond the call of duty when caring for blue. She fed him snacks and made sure he was comfortable. I would definitely use her services again. Thanks Cerita.”
“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!”
“Our Frenchie stayed with Adriana and Cameron while we were in NYC for the week. She had the best time. We got 1-3 videos a day of her running around and claiming a stake on their couch :) They accommodated her needing to eat raw food and taking up space in their fridge. They were responsive and helpful and very timely. It was our first time using Rover and we had a great experience.”
“Marissa was an absolutely wonderful dog sitter. Our dog is older and needs a little extra patience and understanding, and Marissa handled everything with such kindness and care. It was clear from the start that she genuinely cared about making sure our dog was comfortable and happy. She was also an excellent communicator throughout the entire time we were away. Marissa regularly sent updates and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind and made it easy to see how well our dog was doing. Those little check-ins really meant a lot. We’re incredibly grateful for the attention and compassion she showed, especially with an older dog who needs a bit more gentleness. I would highly recommend Marissa to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful, and communicative dog sitter.”
“We’ve booked Bill and Todd like a dozen times now and they’re so awesome. Highly recommend them, it’s worth the extra couple of dollars for piece of mind that our fur babies are in good hands.”
“Mihaela is our favorite sitter we have found on rover. She is so sweet and takes such good care of our Ollie. She also sends the best updates. Thank you for all that you do Mihaela!”

When it comes to caring for pets in a home setting I am very observant and attentive. I prioritize animals comfort and care while providing enrichment!
“I had a wonderful experience with Nick. He was professional, reliable, and cared about my pet's well-being. I received regular updates, photos, and messages, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. My pet came home happy, and well cared for. I highly recommend Nick to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive pet sitter, and I would definitely book with them again!”
“Monique was such a good sitter for our dog. She updated us daily and sent lots of pictures! She took really good care of our dog who has bad anxiety. We will definitely be using her again!”
“My lil Papi enjoyed his time with Adam and Maya. He loves when there’s other dogs around to play with. Their environment is a great space for all the dogs to play in! Appreciate you guys!”
“Kylie and Anthony took amazing care of our Adonis! They met his needs and were super accommodating to us as we had unexpected travel delays. Will definitely use their services again. I felt so comfortable leaving our pup in their care. He was taken care of like their own family.”
