Our dogs enjoyed their time at May’s house. We did receive some pictures and a video while they were there. We appreciated the pictures however a daily check-in would have been nice. Overall a good experience.

About: I’m a dog mom with many years of experience taking good care of pups of all ages and sizes. I work from home with an extremely friendly dog of my own so your dog will have company all day and night! I work fully remote with a flexible schedule. Your dog will always get a morning walk with mine, potty breaks whenever needed, and I can accommodate any feeding schedule. I’m available to provide daycare and board most weekdays and most weekends. I have a fenced backyard patio for potty breaks and time outside. Your pup will have free rein in the house with a doggy playmate. I generally do not crate or cage my dog when I’m out of the house, but can separate your pup as needed based on your requirements. I have cameras in my home for monitoring so I can always check what the pups are up to!

Wow, I couldn’t have asked for anyone better to watch Bentley. She treated him with so much love and care, and I could tell he felt completely safe and happy. She sent me daily videos and pictures which gave me total peace of mind while I was away. I will absolutely be booking her again — and you should too! 👏🐾

Alix took great care of our 5 month old puppy! This was our first time leaving her and we were nervous, but Alix put us at ease. She sent us lots of photos and videos every day we were gone and we could see our dog was getting lots of love and attention. Our pup had a great time socializing and playing with other dogs that Alix was watching and her own pets. We look forward to using Alix again!

About: I have been caring for cats for the past 6 years and understand that every cat has its own unique personality, routine, and needs. I have experience caring for my brother and sister-in-law’s two cats, including one who requires regular medical care and close attention. As a military medic with 7 years of experience, I understand the importance of following care instructions precisely, monitoring for changes, and providing reliable, attentive care—especially for pets with medical conditions. Whether your cat needs medication, a strict feeding schedule, extra patience, or simply companionship while you’re away, I will treat them with the same kindness and respect I would expect for my own pets. I believe in clear, honest, reliable, and frequent communication. You’ll receive regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. Tell me how you care for your cat, and I will follow your instructions to the letter. You can trust me to provide a safe, loving, and stress-free experience for your feline family member.

When my husband and I brought home our puppy, Bridget, our biggest concern was how she would be cared for while we’re at work. Alice and Trey alleviated any worries and then some! They are communicative, attentive, and treat Bridget like one of their own. I can go to work with total confidence and peace of mind that she is well cared for and enjoying fresh air, exercise, and socialization. They have been nothing short of a blessing for us as our pup grows!

This was my first rover so I was admittedly quite nervous. Not only for myself, but even my dogs caretaker as at 4 months old, she can still have puppy like tics. Despite it all, Linda was communicative, thorough and a joy to interact with. You can tell her family has a great vibe, and that reflects in how they treat their dogs. I’m especially appreciative that we were a bit late to pick my pup up due to some traffic and Linda was so understanding and patient. Two paws way way up ?

About: Wondering why my rate might be different than another sitter’s? Rover takes a huge portion of the price you see listed. Please feel free to message me about services i can provide or waive; and I am more than willing to negotiate a fair price depending on the level of care your pup needs! I am able to provide a luxury boarding service at a beautiful, large, home with a massive pet safe backyard! We even have a pool if your pup loves to swim. I provide basic training (unless you prefer I don’t!) and I have a bachelors in art from a prestigious university- so I will provide as many photos and videos as you’d like for free- and can also offer photo shoot and portrait painting (either digital or traditional) services, which can be great for getting your pup at their most comfortable when meeting a photographer or painter! I can provide one on one time, I never leave dogs alone unless requested, and I provide your dog all the cuddles and playtime they want! Since it can be better for both me and you, we can negotiate rates for all services based on your preferences- I won’t ask you to pay for something your pup wouldn’t benefit from! I am American Red cross Cat and Dog First Aid certified, updated very recently. I’ve taken care of my family pets since I was four years old, and got my first dog of my own, a teacup yorkie named Sophie, who was my support dog when I was around 13 years old. Ever since then I’ve had a wonderful support dog named Tommy, and now I currently am training my dog Stevie and my puppy, Chloe to be psychiatric service dogs, working with a professional trainer who thinks I’m a natural! I am a great trainer and I am more than happy to offer that service if you’d like, but i’m not a certified trainer yet! I know pet first aid and cpr. I also had another puppy who lived for just under a year, who passed during a routine anesthesia procedure, which was devastating, but now I know she lives on in my puppy Chloe. I am disabled (chronic lower back pain) but i have mobility aids, can walk around your home/my home unaided, can carry small dogs if requested, and can take your pup out as many times as you’d like. I have a HUGE backyard with plenty of grass, and so I can play with the pups/be outside with them as much as you’d like! Currently in the house here I have Stevie and Chloe, but they can be crated/in a separate part of the house as much as you’d like. I will have one of my parents home so they can keep them 100% completely out of sight if that’s your preference! I’m looking to become a dogsitter because, honestly, dogs are my favorite, and i love connecting with dogs with positive reinforcement and love! I’m so beyond excited for the opportunity to meet your dogs! (And maybe even paint them for you, too!) I currently work remotely part time so i’ll be home all day and all night, and i make my own hours so I can take pretty much any job, any time, for any length of time. When i’m at home without any other pups here, I take care of my dogs Stevie and Chloe full time. They sleep with me (unless you’d rather your pup sleep up here!) so have special puppy guards on the bed so they don’t accidentally fall off while they sleep up here ever! If you’d like, i can keep my dogs with one of my parents so your pups don’t interact. I have a big fenced yard that not even the smallest puppy could get out from! I have two extremely well behaved soon to be service dogs that i’m currently training, They are very small Yorkies, Stevie is 6 years old and about 7 pounds, and Chloe is 5 months and about 2.5 pounds. They can be involved as much or as little as you prefer, but all dogs in our home need to be fully vaccinated please. In your home, I would do everything a dog needs, I’d make sure water is full and available 24/7, i’d take your pups out for playing/potty breaks as often as you’d prefer, i’d feed them and give medication if needed (i have lots of experience giving puppies, adult, and senior dogs medications!) If you let me know your preferences, i’m sure i can treat your dog with so much care and love, and help them feel their routines aren’t too different then they are with you, if that’s your preference! And I LOVE dog cuddles, and cat cuddles! Also, my brother is a vet tech that works at Rancho Bernardo Vetrinary Clinic so I have him, my vet, and my trusted vet emergency hospital all on speed dial, just in case! If needed I can hop in a car and take your pups to the park, the vet, the er, to get groomed, etc. (I will never put your dog in my car without consent, of course!!)

About: I’m comfortable caring for dogs of all ages—puppies are not a problem, and I also provide gentle, patient care for senior dogs. I have experience with training and always focus on creating a safe, structured, and loving environment for every pet. I grew up surrounded by dogs and cats, which instilled in me a deep love for animals. Today, I have an 8-year-old corgi (he’s been with me since he was just 2 months old) and a 2-year-old cat, so caring for pets is part of my everyday life. Their health and happiness is everything to me, and making pets feel safe and loved truly brings joy to my life. My corgi is incredibly sweet, social, and intuitive. He gets along with every animal and naturally takes on the role of a responsible host, caring deeply about every pet that visits. My 2-year-old cat is also very friendly—not just with humans but with other animals too, and she often plays with visiting dogs who are up for it. In my home, guest dogs have freedom and are treated like family. Unless you prefer otherwise, they are welcome to sleep on the bed, couch, or wherever they feel most comfortable. We go on at least two walks a day (30+ minutes each), and every few days we visit the dog beach for a few hours. I’m always happy to adjust routines, activity levels, and care based on your dog’s specific needs. I provide a safe, loving, and social environment where your pet will feel at home. Since I work from home, I am available to care for your furry friend 24/7. Even when I'm out running errands or attending to other matters, my family, including my husband and high school junior son, will be there to ensure that your pet is never left alone or unsupervised. I understand how important pets are, and I treat them with respect and love. Their mental and physical health are crucial, which is why I make sure to incorporate playtime and regular walks into their daily routine. However, I also understand that each pet has its own unique personality and preferences, so I only engage in activities that they enjoy. You can trust me to take good care of your pet and treat them as if they were a part of my own family. With my years of experience and love for animals, your furry friend will be in good hands. Since I work from home, I’m able to provide consistent, attentive care throughout the day. Your pet will have plenty of supervision, companionship, and regular interaction as part of my daily routine. If I need to step out briefly for errands, my family—my husband and son—are always home to ensure your pet is never left alone or unsupervised. Caring for animals is truly part of our everyday life, and we make sure each pet feels safe, comfortable, and included at all times. Your pet will be staying in a safe, loving, and supervised home environment alongside my friendly and sociable male corgi and female cat. They are both very comfortable with other animals and humans, so your pet will have positive companionship and social interaction during their stay. Safety is always my priority. I carefully introduce pets to ensure everyone feels comfortable, and I can separate spaces if needed depending on your pet’s temperament or preferences. I also follow your instructions closely—whether it’s feeding schedules, medications, or specific routines—so your pet’s care stays consistent. I have a large, secure patio with both sunny and shaded areas, perfect for dogs who enjoy spending time outdoors in a safe space. Inside, pets are free to relax and feel at home, with constant supervision throughout the day. My goal is to create a calm, stress-free environment where your pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for at all times.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for 15 years, from energetic puppies to mellow seniors. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or giving meds, I treat every pup like part of the family. Friends and neighbors rely on me for everything from daily visits to overnight stays, and I’ve built great bonds with dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I’m confident, calm, and always ready for fetch, belly rubs, or just quiet companionship. Bonus: I never show up without treats (with your permission, of course!). Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine—I genuinely love spending time with animals. I’m flexible and can accommodate morning, midday, or evening visits depending on your pet’s needs. Whether it’s a quick potty break, a long walk, or quality cuddle time, I make sure each visit is stress-free and tailored to your dog’s personality and schedule. Weekdays and weekends are both available, and I always build in time for updates, so you’ll never wonder how your pup is doing. Safety, trust & environment Keeping pets safe, happy, and comfortable is always my top priority—whether I’m staying at your place or welcoming your pet into mine. I stick closely to your care instructions and take time to get to know each pet’s personality and routine. When I’m in your home, I make sure everything stays just the way they’re used to. At my place, it’s calm and cozy with lots of supervision and comfy spots to lounge. ***I have two sweet Frenchies who are great with other dogs—we’ve had a third pup stay with us for weeks at a time, and it’s always a blast. I keep things secure, walk with sturdy leashes, and treat every pet like one of my own. If you’re looking for care for two or more dogs, I usually prefer staying at your place—it helps keep things low-stress and more familiar for them.

I needed a place for my fur baby to stay while my housekeepers were cleaning and I contacted Ruda. He responded right away and was able to provide daycare for my dog with 24 hour notice. You can tell Ruda is a "dog person" and he took very good care of my boy and took him on walks even though he didn't have a very long stay at his home. Drop off and pick up was super easy too. Thanks Ruda! We will be coming back again.

I am thrilled to have found Deborah on Rover. My little newly adopted rescue dog has separation anxiety and I’ve needed to have her in daycare several times a week. Deborah and her family and dog, Teddy, have provided a second home for my pup. She has thrived in the safe, caring, loving environment of their home. Deborah is reliable and responsive, and has been very accommodating to my needs. She is cheerful, friendly and kind, always giving me peace of mind while I’m away.

About: ! I’m Kristy, and I’d love to care for your furry family member! I’ve been around dogs for years through pet sitting, babysitting for families with pets, and raising my own dog. I know every dog has a unique personality, and I take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether your pup loves long walks, playing fetch, cuddling on the couch, or just sticking to their usual routine, I’m happy to provide personalized care based on their needs.

I will also make sure your pet gets the proper exercise, and attention they need.

About: I have five years of experience caring for dogs of all ages and temperaments — from puppies and seniors to dogs with separation anxiety, resource guarding, PTSD, reactivity, bite histories, crate-training needs, and daily medication requirements. I provide overnights, walks, and visits, and I prioritize maintaining routines that help dogs feel secure and comfortable. Every dog deserves patience, understanding, and individualized care, whether they need long walks, playtime, mental enrichment, or simply a calm companion. I’m committed to building trust and creating a positive, stress‑free experience for both pets and owners. I work part-time, which allows me flexibility to dedicate time to pet care. While my work schedule can vary week to week, I’m able to prioritize scheduled bookings and make sure each pet receives dependable care, attention, and a routine that works best for them. The services I provide are dog walks, drop-ins and in home care, keeping your pet's routine as consistent and stress-free as possible while you're away. I follow their feeding, walking, medication, and enrichment schedules while ensuring they receive plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and companionship. I have experience caring for pets of all ages and needs, including puppies, seniors, anxious pets, and those requiring medication or specialized care. My priority is creating a safe, calm, and positive environment where your pet feels comfortable, secure, and well cared for.

About: I have hands-on experience with reactive dogs, having raised and trained two of my own. I know how much patience, consistency, and calm energy it takes to help a nervous or reactive pup feel safe, and I’ve spent countless hours on exposure work and training to do just that. Whether your dog is shy, anxious, or still learning their manners, they’re in understanding hands with me Caring for dogs is part of my daily rhythm. Between my own dog and the time I spend on walks and play, dogs are always in my schedule. I have plenty of flexibility throughout the week for walks, drop-ins, and giving your pup the time and attention they deserve I’ll always come to you, where your dog feels safest. I’ll follow whatever routine your pup already knows, and when we’re walking, my phone stays in my pocket so your dog has my full attention. I always keep the leash secure and lock up before I go. If your dog is reactive, you’re in good hands. I’ve had two reactive dogs of my own, so I know how to stay calm, read the signs, and move them away from triggers before things get to be too much. Either way, you’ll get photo updates so you can relax knowing your pup is happy and safe

About: I am an animal lover that is passionate about caring for all animals, specifically rescue animals and animals that may require unique behavioral support or have special needs. My own dog is highly reactive, so I have a lot of experience with handling and caring for reactive dogs. I treat and love every animal as my own and am a very responsible and reliable caregiver. I work as a school psychologist, so I typically care for animals more over the summer! Over the summer, I am available throughout the day for walks or drop in services. I am very flexible both week days and weekends, check my calendar to see if I’m available! I do not offer in-home pet care due to the needs of my own pets. However, I am a very responsible and respectful caregiver when entering client homes.

About: As a flexible college student looking for summer work, I have a schedule that allows me to dedicate reliable time and attention to the pets I care for. I have 3 years of professional pet sitting experience, caring for pets with a wide range of routines and medical needs. I’ve cared for dogs/cats from just a few months old to senior age, requiring extra patience, monitoring, and specialized care. I’m experienced administering oral medications, eye and ear medications, and topical treatments. I’m comfortable following detailed care instructions to make sure pets stay safe, healthy, and comfortable. Along with my professional experience, I’ve also owned and cared for dogs, cats, and horses throughout my life. I genuinely love animals and do my best to care for every pet with the same attention and love I would want for my own pets. Pet care has always been a natural part of my daily life. I’ve owned and cared for a dog, six different cats, a horse, and rodents throughout my life. I’m very used to managing feeding schedules, exercise, grooming, cleaning, playtime, and giving animals consistent attention and care every day. As a college student not taking classes over the summer, I have a very flexible schedule that allows me to prioritize pet care throughout the day. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to keep their routine as normal and comfortable as possible by providing plenty of attention, affection, playtime, and walks. I truly try to care for every pet like they’re my own so they feel safe and loved while their owners are away. I’m also very respectful of clients’ homes and leave them as clean, or cleaner, than I found them while carefully following all care instructions.

About: I have special skills in senior care and animals who need special care post surgery. I have about 3 dogs and 1 cat who are all seniors. The first dog I adopted millie was on the older side and as the years gone by I have learned and educated myself on how to properly care for senior dogs, and the most important thing I have learned is patience is key. My oldest dog millie also had multiple surgeries due to cancerous tumor that spread. Thankfully she is fine but after many surgeries I have learned the skills on how to properly take care of dogs post surgery. I also have lots of experience with kittens from my time volunteer at a feline rescue. I am a UCLA student who does this work during my summer break. I am available from beginning of june-end of september. I will also be working a job that are about 5.30 hours each shift 4 days a week. Depending on exactly what day of the week you need I can work around your schedule. My other summer job is very flexible however my shifts are usually at night. Depending on what you need I can be very flexible so we can also talk more in detail. I do not offer services for pets to stay at my home however I do travel to my clients homes. When taking care of my clients pets I make sure to prioritize safety, routine, be attentive, and cleanliness. I also make sure that all animals receive their walks and all physical activity required.

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life! I grew up with six cats and two dogs, so I learned early how to read body language, respect boundaries, and adapt to different temperaments. I'm just as comfortable tiring out a high energy pup on a long beach walk as I am giving a shy cat the quiet, patient presence they need. I'm experienced with feeding routines, administering medications, and caring for multiple pets at once. You'll always get updates and photos, because I know peace of mind matters as much as great care. I’m active and love getting outside for long walks, playtime, and keeping dogs engaged. At the same time, I’m just as happy providing a calm, cozy presence for cats or more relaxed pets. I’m also comfortable caring for multiple pets, following feeding routines, and handling medications if needed. I take pride in being dependable and communicative, and I’m always happy to send updates and photos so you can feel at ease while you’re away. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved the entire time you’re gone. I work full-time during the day and am available after 5 PM on weekdays, with flexible weekend availability. I genuinely enjoy staying active, so fitting walks and visits into my routine is a pleasure, not an obligation. I care for pets in their own homes, following your routines closely so everything feels familiar. I live near the beach in a very walkable neighborhood, no yard, but plenty of sniff-heavy, stimulating walks tailored to your dog's energy level. I treat every home with the same respect I'd want in mine: doors locked, counters wiped, and your pet settled and content when you return. I have experience dog sitting and walking, and I treat every home with respect and care, keeping things clean and consistent so owners can feel completely at ease.

Michael is a great Rober and I thank him and his family so much for taking great care of MG. He had great time with them and other doggy friends and I can definitely see he had a great time while we were away. Michael is very loving and responsible carer so highly recommended. We will definitely come back in the future.

Alina was an amazing sitter for our 80 lb lab! She was so professional, providing daily updates with photos and videos. Alina’s positive energy was genuine and it was clear our dog was very comfortable with her and her family. I highly recommend Alina!!

About: I’m a dog mom with many years of experience taking good care of pups of all ages and sizes. I work from home with an extremely friendly dog of my own so your dog will have company all day and night! I work fully remote with a flexible schedule. Your dog will always get a morning walk with mine, potty breaks whenever needed, and I can accommodate any feeding schedule. I’m available to provide daycare and board most weekdays and most weekends. I have a fenced backyard patio for potty breaks and time outside. Your pup will have free rein in the house with a doggy playmate. I generally do not crate or cage my dog when I’m out of the house, but can separate your pup as needed based on your requirements. I have cameras in my home for monitoring so I can always check what the pups are up to!

Alix took great care of our 5 month old puppy! This was our first time leaving her and we were nervous, but Alix put us at ease. She sent us lots of photos and videos every day we were gone and we could see our dog was getting lots of love and attention. Our pup had a great time socializing and playing with other dogs that Alix was watching and her own pets. We look forward to using Alix again!

Very happy with our experience. Our dog had a great time with Ryan's family. Ryan was easy to communicate with and he was very accommodating when our travel plans changed unexpectedly at the last minute and we had to extend the boarding for a few days.

Corinne & Christopher is such a lovely couple who took great care of my dog Jackie Chan. From the first time we did a meet and greet- I was at ease and know they will take care of my dog as if he’s their own. Thank you so much and until the next time.

Grizzly had a great time with Cindy and Todd. He loves their dog Sunny as they are both very playful. They took great care of Grizzly and sent frequent videos and pictures while we were away. We would definitely recommend them for pet sitting!

I give Mayank and his family a FIVE star review all the time. They send pictures, updates. Zazzle is so happy to be with Myank and his family. Their daughter Pia loves all the four legged guests. Zazzle has dogs to play with, get tuckered out. Can't get better than this. Thanks to Mayank and family.

Gelare took such good care of my dog Nessa! I would 10/10 recommend her to anyone looking for pet care — she made drop off/pick up a breeze and sent helpful updates through the stay! When I came to pick up my dog at the end of my vacation, I could tell Ness was relaxed and chill and that she’d had a great couple days staying with Gelare. Thank you Gelare!! I would definitely book again.

Julia was a fantastic sitter for my baby Kimchi! She sent multiple photos + updates throughout my pets stay, fed her medicine everyday, and her pup Yuki was so gentle and patient with Kimchi. Her place is very secure, so I felt safe having her there. She also takes Kimchi on walks which not all sitters do. And lastly Kimchi has always been an anxious dog who doesn’t acclimate well in new settings, and while she still gets afraid of Julia’s roommates, she felt safe and calm with Julia right off the bat. Would definitely recommend!

Anna took great care of our dog PJ while we were on vacation. She is nice and thorough, and I could tell PJ was in great hands. My anxious dog needed a calm and understanding environment and she was able to provide that. Anna was able to follow the feeding and other instructions easily, and communicated with me daily, providing pictures and videos of PJ while we were away. I think PJ enjoyed his time so much with Anna because he wasn’t really excited to see me back! Thank you Anna for taking in my quirky PJ and providing for his needs while we were on vacation. 😊

Sandy was so responsive and attentive! I could tell right away that my dog felt comfortable and safe in her home. We were originally concerned about separation anxiety, but I could see that our little girl was so happy to play with Cooper! The two dogs got along great, and Sandy sent updates and pictures to let us know what our girl was up to. We won’t hesitate to use Sandy’s services again!

Holly was absolutely amazing to Zoe! I sent her a pretty long note which definitely wasn’t expecting her to read it all but not only did she read it, she also was pertaining it to Zoe’s stay like with what Zoe is used to which I thought was so nice to see. She also kept us updated daily with photos and videos of all the hikes and activities they did which I absolutely loved! Thank you so much for everything! Will definitely want Zoe to stay again if she’ll have her!
