“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.”

“Alice & Micah were absolutely the best! Our dog was so happy and comfortable with them. They provided a safe, friendly, and loving home for him. Alice sent me daily updates with pictures. I am very happy and look forward to using them again. They are wonderful.”

“Maya did an amazing job with my little guy. She was great with sending updates and pics and made me feel confident about him being with her while I was away. I’ll definitely book her again!”
“Nithya is a wonderful dog sitter. She paid attention to our dog and treated him very well. She took him on long walks and made our boy feel as comfortable as he could be. I would definitely recommend Nithya to anyone. We will be using her again in the future. Thank you so much for taking care of our little guy.”


“Ankea and her husband we're fantastic! My first Rover experience and because of how well my pups were looked after this won't be my last. My pups have medical conditions and anxiety which makes them a little bit of challenge to look after. Ankea didn't even get fazed when I was listing out all of the extra things she would need to do for my pups. She truly is amazing and I recommend her for anyone looking for a dog sitter especially if you're new to Rover.”

“Our dog had a great time at Martin and Crystal's house in their huge backyard and played well with their pet dogs. We received photos and videos and they only had positive feedback. We will definitely use them again!”

“We had a wonderful experience with Gregory & Kateri. We were away for more than two weeks, and they took excellent care of our dog the entire time. They were very responsive, sent photos ( kids loved the AI pics too) and updates, and gave us great peace of mind while we were traveling. We came home to a happy, well-cared-for dog, and we would definitely book with them again!”

“So lucky to have found Annie and Ty ❤️ can’t say enough great things about this experience. It was so hard to leave my Nelly during Christmas but Annie & Ty sent plenty of pictures/updates and gave Nelly the present I left her on Christmas Day which put my heart at ease. I rest assured knowing she would never be alone during my time away. Nelly made herself right at home in their home and I can’t wait for her to rest easy with Annie & Ty in the future.”

“Crystal took care of my dog Charlie very well and I can tell that he was in good hands as soon as we met her. All he likes to do is snuggle and be next to someone and she took the time to be with him and make sure he felt comfortable. He’s a little anxious sometimes, but even when we got him back, there were no signs that he was anxious and he was just as happy as if we never left him. we will certainly consider having Crystal watch him again as they bonded very well. Thank you, Crystal!”

“May and her sweet, little dog Pepper are so wonderful and kind!! They are the only ones I entrust my dear fur-baby to, when I have to travel for business. She is “2nd Mommy.” ❤️👏🏻 Thank you, May!”

“Tatyanah and Everardo watched our dog Nova for five nights and took such wonderful care of her. They are so friendly and you can tell right away they love dogs. It was such a relief to know she was being loved and well cared for while we were on vacation. They have a spacious yard, and Nova especially enjoyed playing with their two dogs—she bonded quickly with Jojo! They took her on plenty of walks and kept us updated with lots of videos and pictures, which we really appreciated. We would absolutely love for them to watch her again next time we need a dog sitter!”

“Sarah and her daughter were wonderful!!!!! They kept us updated with pictures of our baby. She seemed happy and at ease in the pictures. We highly recommend Sarah and will refer people.”


“Chewie had a great time with Khamsay and Amit. He was well taken care of with lots of walks. Khamsay sent lots of updates with photos and was so nice. Chewie can’t wait for his next stay with them.”

“We found Demi to be extremely knowledgeable about dogs and she genially loves taking great care of them. Charlie was well taken care of during his stay and enjoyed hanging out with her beautiful dogs. At the end of the stay our little dog was so attached to her. Going forward we plan on using Demi for all our pet sitting needs. So happy to have found her. I would highly recommend Demi to all my friends and colleagues for their pet sitting needs.”
About: I had 3 dogs since 2002 and raised them from puppy early age until their end of life. my last one died 1 year ago. I'm not ready to get another one but would love to give some love and attention to someone else's dogs. I'm newly retired and would love to spend more time around dogs to play with them, walk with them. I love to be outside as much weather permit. I have a fenced backyard and able to crate your dog if needed. If I have to go away for a short period like 1hr, your dog will be confined in a safe area (entire family room).
“I recently had to go on an international trip for 2 weeks and needed to find a sitter with very little advance notice. I cannot imagine a better choice than Ronald and his family. From the get acquainted visit, to the drop off, and entire two weeks Duke and Daisy spend with them, they were all very welcoming, loving and caring for my kids. The daily update pictures and occasional video showed what a great time they were having and how well taken car of they were. If you want your dog or dogs to feel as at home as they do in your house let them stay with Ronald and his crew. Duke and Daisy came home happier than ever.”

“Kimberly is a fantastic pet-sitter who I can’t recommend enough. Our cats and bunny are well taken care of when we are away. She always sends pictures and updates us on how the pets are doing every day. She is very reliable and I will be rebooking her the next time we need a pet sitter!”

“Jessica is our favorite sitter!! She’s a miracle worker, getting my shy cats to snuggle right up to her, and sending me the cutest pictures. She’s absolutely amazing. So grateful!”


“Stop scrolling – you’ve found the perfect pet sitter! Verona is absolutely incredible. She cared for my cat for seven days and went above and beyond in every possible way. She brought in my mail, packages, and even garbage cans—without me ever asking. But the most amazing part? My cat came back happier and friendlier than ever. I had only adopted her two months ago and this was my first time leaving her, yet Verona’s gentle, caring approach helped her become more relaxed and tame than I imagined possible. And as a bonus, Verona took the most stunning professional-quality photos of my cat that made me see her in a whole new light. If you’re looking for someone who truly loves animals and treats them like her own, Verona is the one. I feel incredibly lucky to have found her and would trust her again in a heartbeat.”

“I booked Dee right before Christmas since I was going out of town. It was helpful doing a meet and greet before I left town to show her everything. She left photos and notes of her visits and entertained my kitty. I will use her again!! ❤️”

About: I have deeply loved cats since I was a child. I go to Austin Animal Center on a monthly basis to give their kitties TLC. I have extensive experience caring for animals from cats to dogs to rabbits to fish, all of various ages, sizes and breeds. I was a Foster Volunteer for an animal shelter, so I have been trained to care for rescue animals. I have experience with animals with disabilities and medical and behavior needs. I have experience with long-term housesitting and managing the duties that go along with that (watering, trash, mail, general housekeeping).

About: Hello I’m Nancy! I’m a recent college graduate from UCSD who would prefer more animal friends than humans. I joined Rover to meet more local furry neighbors and help out pet owners. I’m a hamster owner myself, but I have plenty of house sitting experience for dogs and cats since 2021. Owners that book recurring visits often see their pets are excited to see me again. I’m honored to be your sitter — your pet will get all of my love and affection and you will receive lots of (goofy) photos to prove that. Cat owners extremely benefit from me, as I have a younger sister who also helps out whenever I am cat sitting. Your cat will understand what it is like to be a celebrity between the two of us since we are big cat lovers! My work schedule is Thursday-Mon 11pm-7:30am. I typically don’t sleep until a couple hours later (10-11am) and I wake up around 3-4pm. So my schedule can align well with pets that are familiar with a typical 9-5 schedule. I rarely travel so my schedule can accommodate pets under short notice. Before you entrust me with the care of your friend, I’d love to know more about them. Ideally, I’d love to schedule a meet and greet beforehand so they get used to me and so we both know more about each other. It is important to me that I meet you and your pet’s expectations. I’d love to know all the quirks and traits of your pet.

“Eunice was amazing with our little girl. She was able to take her last minute to watched her for the day. She sent so many great photos of Gemma and made us feel so comfortable. It was great to that Gemma got to socialize with her dog and other little doggies. We knew she was going to be our forever sitter.”

About: For my family and me, caring for dogs isn’t a job—it’s a passion. I naturally build deep connections with my furry guests, filling their days with abundant love, hugs, and long, joyful walks. What sets me apart is my ability to adapt to what your dog needs most right now. If you have a young puppy, I provide the structured care, patience, and positive reinforcement training they need to thrive. If you have a senior dog, I bring a gentle touch, ensuring their medical routines, physical limitations, and need for a peaceful rest are fully respected. Your dog will be loved, active, and expertly cared for every single minute. As a stay-at-home homemaker, my schedule is incredibly flexible, which means pet care doesn't just fit into my routine—it becomes the highlight of my day. Since I am at home most of the time, your dog will never be left alone or ignored. From morning walks to afternoon playtime and cozy evening rests, your pup becomes my ultimate companion and best friend. I structure my day around their needs, ensuring they get constant attention, timely meals, and plenty of outdoor time. Having a dog around brings me so much joy, so caring for them feels completely natural and fills my home with happiness. I provide pet care exclusively in my home, which is tailored to be a safe, stress-free haven for your dog. I live in a secure, gated community, offering a quiet and highly protected environment for my daily walks. My house features a spacious, fully fenced backyard, giving your dog plenty of room to run, play, and explore safely under my constant supervision. Safety is my absolute top priority. I ensure that all gates are securely locked at all times, and I never leave dogs unattended outdoors. Inside the home, your pet will have full freedom to lounge and rest in a comfortable, hazard-free space, treated just like a member of my family. I would like to clarify that I will be the sole caretaker and no one else will be assisting me with pet care.
“Greg and Kateri were absolutely amazing with Luna! This was her first time at a sitter’s home, and they made the entire experience so smooth and reassuring. They were incredibly sweet, attentive, and thoughtful with her needs. They even took the time to look up her Borzoi breed and mannerisms, which meant so much and really showed how much they care. They were patient and understanding with her quirks and tendencies, and kept me updated and at ease the whole time. I couldn’t have asked for better sitters and would 100% trust them with Luna again. Highly, highly recommend!”

“Michelle and Steve are amazing! They are incredibly patient with my sometimes rambunctious 9 month old sherpard terrier mix. Michelle provides really thorough daily updates with some highlights and works to ensure that the behaviors that the owner is working on with their pup are followed during the stay. The icing on the cake is their pup Daisy. She is incredibly sweet and calm, and my pup Iris loves spending the day playing with her. 10/10 would recommend, and would not hesitate to book for sitting or boarding services!”

“Johna and Raymond were such great sitters !! My pup Canela had a blast in their yard and she was tired out by the time I was there for pick up- which is good for me. Johna sent pictures for updates throughout the day and responded quickly. For a first time user with rover I’m happy I found them! Good feedback was given as I am learning myself how to be a new dog owner and I’m excited for Canela to stay with them in the future!”

“I’m so grateful for Chris & Corinne and the awesome job they did taking care of my dog, Kieran. I needed some last-minute help and not only were they able to accommodate my short notice booking, but they also made time to squeeze in a meet-and-greet session so my dog could have a chance to acclimate a little. My dog can be a bit anxious and tends to warm to new people pretty slowly, but within minutes of meeting he seemed at ease in their home and even came up to them for pets. During the actual visit, I got a midday check-in, complete with a photo of my boy relaxing and looking perfectly comfortable and content without me. If I wasn’t in the process of moving, I would definitely use them as our regular sitters!”

“Andrea was wonderful. She was able to take my dog at the last minute. She was warm, welcoming, and very friendly. She took excellent care of my dog and would use her again in a heartbeat. My kids also loved petting all the dogs when we went to pick him up.”

“Greg took such a great care of our dog Coco! She was very happy and relaxed when I pick her up. He also sent pictures and updated me of how Coco was doing. We definitely recommend Greg!”

“This is the 2nd time we have boarded Milo with Dahui. He has been well taken care and enjoys his stay with her. We are very happy with Dahui and would plan future boardings too.”

“Our dog had a great time at Martin and Crystal's house in their huge backyard and played well with their pet dogs. We received photos and videos and they only had positive feedback. We will definitely use them again!”

“We had a wonderful experience with Gregory & Kateri. We were away for more than two weeks, and they took excellent care of our dog the entire time. They were very responsive, sent photos ( kids loved the AI pics too) and updates, and gave us great peace of mind while we were traveling. We came home to a happy, well-cared-for dog, and we would definitely book with them again!”

“Crystal took care of my dog Charlie very well and I can tell that he was in good hands as soon as we met her. All he likes to do is snuggle and be next to someone and she took the time to be with him and make sure he felt comfortable. He’s a little anxious sometimes, but even when we got him back, there were no signs that he was anxious and he was just as happy as if we never left him. we will certainly consider having Crystal watch him again as they bonded very well. Thank you, Crystal!”

“Tatyanah and Everardo watched our dog Nova for five nights and took such wonderful care of her. They are so friendly and you can tell right away they love dogs. It was such a relief to know she was being loved and well cared for while we were on vacation. They have a spacious yard, and Nova especially enjoyed playing with their two dogs—she bonded quickly with Jojo! They took her on plenty of walks and kept us updated with lots of videos and pictures, which we really appreciated. We would absolutely love for them to watch her again next time we need a dog sitter!”

“Sarah and her daughter were wonderful!!!!! They kept us updated with pictures of our baby. She seemed happy and at ease in the pictures. We highly recommend Sarah and will refer people.”


“Chewie had a great time with Khamsay and Amit. He was well taken care of with lots of walks. Khamsay sent lots of updates with photos and was so nice. Chewie can’t wait for his next stay with them.”

“I recently had to go on an international trip for 2 weeks and needed to find a sitter with very little advance notice. I cannot imagine a better choice than Ronald and his family. From the get acquainted visit, to the drop off, and entire two weeks Duke and Daisy spend with them, they were all very welcoming, loving and caring for my kids. The daily update pictures and occasional video showed what a great time they were having and how well taken car of they were. If you want your dog or dogs to feel as at home as they do in your house let them stay with Ronald and his crew. Duke and Daisy came home happier than ever.”

“Gelare was fantastic! She was so kind to our pup and you could tell she loved dogs. Her home was very nice and welcoming and Senna came back as happy as can be! I would definitely recommend and use Gelare again!”

“We had a great experience with Andrea. She and her husband Niell took great care of our 1 year old White German Shepherd. This family knows everything about dog care. Their house has a wonderful setup for dogs with a huge grassy backyard. It is like a resort or park for the dogs. Our puppy had plenty of playtime at their care. Both of them were keeping us posted with regular updates. They have different size crates too. Our pup came back happy and healthy. We will definitely would love to use their service again.”

“Norma & family are great! Our Mateo is very happy with them. Their dog Ketchup is an awesome playmate for Mateo. We would not hesitate to recommend them. They have taken care of Mateo twice now & we would gladly leave him with them again.”

“Kathryn and Matt were amazing. They have 2 other dogs that Gumbo was able to play with and the property was safe for him to have a good time.. They gave regular updates on how he was doing, walked him around the neighborhood and even snuggled him on the couch when he sat next to them. They were excellent caretakers.”

“Jason took great care of Beta for us! She was happy and tired from all the playing. He clearly cares for the pups he watches and is great working with them. Highly recommend!”

“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!”


About: I’ve spent over a decade caring for my own dog, a pit bull who was part of my family for 11 years and lived to 15 years old. He faced multiple health challenges over the years, including cancer, and I supported him through every stage of his life. That experience taught me patience, attentiveness, and how to stay calm and consistent, even in more demanding situations. I’m comfortable with medium to large breeds and understand the importance of structure, routine, and a safe, stable environment. I treat every dog with the same level of care and respect I gave my own I’m retired, so I’m home most of the day and able to provide consistent care, attention, and supervision. My wife also works from home, so there is almost always someone present to make sure your dog is safe and comfortable. We’re able to maintain a steady routine with regular potty breaks, feeding, walks, and plenty of attention throughout the day. Dogs in our care are rarely left alone and are treated like part of the family. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a calm, clean, and secure home environment where dogs are always supervised and cared for. Since I’m retired and my wife works from home, there is almost always someone present, so your dog won’t be left alone for long periods. I take the time to understand each dog’s routine, personality, and needs to ensure they feel safe and comfortable while they’re here. I also keep a close eye on behavior and interactions at all times. My goal is to provide an stress-free, reliable experience so you can feel confident your dog is in good hands. To keep a safe and comfortable home environment, I ask that dogs are house-trained and non-destructive. Owners are responsible for any significant damage caused during a stay.”
