“Diana has been such a great resource for me and my new pug. She has a wealth of knowledge and provides valuable feedback after each visit. The facilities are clean, spacious and safe. Diana’s attentiveness, organization and love for the pups in her care really shine through.”
“Corinne and Christopher are great Rover sitters. They were very responsive to messages and most importantly took great care of my girl Busaba. I felt like she was in good hands. I would definitely recommend them and would use them again.”
“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.”
“We are so lucky to have Michelle and Steve (and their sweet lab Daisy) for our Tapi. They are so caring and treat our big puppy like their own baby. He gets so much attention and they are always conscientious about keeping their dogs safe. Tapi absolutely LOVES going there and he had such a blast with his 5 night boarding with them.”
“Greg and Kateri were awesome and took our dog in like their own while we were away for a weekend. Provided lots of picture updates and were such great hosts. Will absolutely book again!”
“Deepika was wonderful. We set up a meeting with her within a week of needing her so it’s kind of a last-minute request and thank God she was available and met her at a park so that we could meet with her and her dog and she met us and she was kind and happy. She has a lovely home, and she took really good care of our dog and communicated with us daily, because her dog wasn’t feeling very well during her visit, and we felt extremely confident in her ability to take care of our sweet dog.”
“I can’t say enough good things about Maya and her husband. They are absolutely wonderful, kind, attentive, and truly passionate about caring for animals. From the moment I met them in the middle of the night, I knew my senior-ita, almost 15 years old fur baby 🐕was in the best hands. Their calm energy and genuine love for animals instantly put both me and my dog at ease. Throughout the stay, they kept me updated with thoughtful messages and adorable pics, which gave me so much peace of mind. My Abby was clearly happy, relaxed, and well cared for — it was like a vacation for her, too! It’s rare to find sitters who treat your pet like family, but that’s exactly what Maya and her husband do. I feel incredibly lucky to have found them, and I would trust them again in a heartbeat. Highly, highly recommend! Thank you so much, Maya”
“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: 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.
“Holly kept me updated with pictures throughout the stay and was very affectionate and loving toward my senior dog. She was attentive to his disabilities and made sure his special needs were met. She is a very kind and compassionate dog sitter. I can tell my dog truly enjoyed his stay with her.”
“She is very flexible and took a great care of our pup when we were traveling out of country. She was giving us updates, sending pictures and videos on a daily basis.”
“Max had a great stay ! Dahui responds immediately and we arranged a meet before the stay, which was great for Max and us. She has a nice yard/patio with lots of shade and quiet neighborhood. She is very responsive and sent lots of pictures. She was very accommodating with the pick up time . We will be happy to leave Max there again.”
“Sarah and Shelby were awesome! Definitely recommend for any of your pet’s services. They took in our 8 month old puppy with short notice for an overnight stay. We were in town from out of state to visit family and this was our dogs first stay away from home. We were updated with pleasant photos throughout the night and they were willing to keep her until noon the next day. Their dogs Ziggy and Titan were very friendly and played well together. We will be back!”
“Tatyanah & Everardo did an awesome job with my Pup Isla!!! My Pup is very timid around other pups, but Tatyanah, Everardo, and their pups made Her feel very welcome. I received videos and pictures throughout the time Isla stayed at their home. I asked them for feedback and tips on how I can get Isla more comfortable around other pups. I would definitely recommend them. Isla will be seeing them soon as I plan to bring Isla back! Thank you Tatyanah and Everardo!”
“We had such a wonderful experience with Alice & Micah! Right from the meet-and-greet, they made us feel comfortable and reassured that our pup would be in loving, capable hands. We recently moved to San Diego and were looking for a pet sitter when one of our friends recommended them. Before an upcoming long trip, we booked an overnight stay to see how our fur baby would do, and we couldn’t have been happier with the experience. Alice and her family took incredible care of our dog, keeping her happy, safe, clean, and so well loved throughout the stay. It was clear how much affection and attention they gave her. Alice also shared photos and updates throughout the stay, which we truly appreciated. The communication and care gave us complete peace of mind, and we knew right away that our pup would be with a loving family during our travels. Our fur baby came home relaxed, happy, and clearly very well cared for! We’re so grateful to have found someone so trustworthy, responsible, and kind. We highly recommend Alice & Micah to anyone looking for a caring and dependable pet sitter!”
“Kara was fantastic with our dog. I felt completely at ease knowing she was taking care of him while we were out of town. Lots of walks, attention, daily updates, photos, and homemade treats! I would definitely rebook with her again.”
“I contacted Steph sort of very last minute and she took such a great care of Brownie and Bear. Due to an unexpected family issue, I couldn’t make it back on time as planned, She agreed and was happy to keep them until late night pickup. Thank you for taking such a wonderful care of them. They were very happy and joyful after the stay.”
“Annie, Ty and their daughters took wonderful care of my dog. They asked lots of questions about his care and routine and provided regular updates and photos of him while he was with them. He came home happy and relaxed after his time in their home.”
“Gelare and Sama are wonderful pet sitters! We could tell through all the pictures and videos that Gelare took very good care of our little pup. From playing catch to tummy rubs, we were sure our pup was getting all the love and attention we were hoping for! Would highly recommend!”
“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!”

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 schedule is night shift, I work 11pm-7:30am. I typically don’t sleep until a couple hours later (10-11am) and I wake up around 5pm. 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.
“Jessica is amazing!! My cat loves her. I could tell it was the highlight of cheddars day. She let Cheddar snuggle in her lap, played with the cat toys, and left me a sweet note on my return. Jessica went over and above coming back to put Cheddar inside after he escapd by clawing through the screen in my bedroom. She gave me frequent updates. It was great to have Cheddar so well cared for. She’s the best!”
About: I have grown up with both dogs and cats and have cared for many pets of my own over the years. My experience spans every life stage - from energetic puppies and kittens to senior pets needing gentle, attentive support. I've worked with a wide range of breeds and temperaments and understand how to tailor care to each animal's unique needs. I currently share my home with two Australian Shepherds, ages 5 and 6, who keep me active and always learning. I've also provided care for many pets belonging to friends, family, and clients, always treating them with the same love and respect I give my own animals. I'm a true animal and nature lover, and I take pride in creating a safe, positive, and comfortable experience for every pet in my care. Pet care is naturally woven into my day. Because I work from home, I'm able to maintain a consistent routine that keeps me available for walks, checkins, feeding schedules, and companionship throughout the day. I structure my work around the pets I am caring for, ensuring they receive regular attention, exercise, and supervision. Whether it's morning walks, midday playtime, or evening check-ins, I'm able to provide reliable, flexible care that fits each pets individual needs. When caring for pets in a client's home, my focus is on maintaining their routine, comfort, and sense of security. I follow the pet parent's instructions closely, keep the environment clean and safe, and make sure each pet receives plenty of attention, companionship, and structure throughout the visit.
“Kristen did an AMAZING job caring for our dog and cat! I would highly recommend her services. She sent multiple photos everyday and kept me updated on how the pets were doing. I am so grateful to have found her!”
“I can’t recommend her enough! She took such great care of my cat while I was away and gave me complete peace of mind. She was reliable, communicative, and clearly cared about making sure my cat was happy and comfortable. I loved getting updates, and it was obvious my cat was in great hands. I came home to a happy, well-cared-for kitty, and I will absolutely be booking with her again. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy and caring to watch your pets, she’s the best!”
“Lauren was great! I was able to book her the night before for our kitties. Lauren was super responsive and sent multiple pictures and videos. It was very comforting to know they were doing well and in good hands. Will definitely book again next time we need a sitter.”
About: I have cared for cats for almost 14 years now. My cat Munchkin is a 14 year old ginger cat. As he gets older I have taken on more responsibilities. Whatever your cat needs I can do!
“There are so many wonderful things to say about Verona! She's truly one of the kindest people I have ever met. She cared for my 3 kitties Dom, Coop and Theo with love that I would give them! Her updates were always thorough and she was always on time and followed instructions perfectly! From the moment I met her I knew I didn't have to worry about being gone, I will DEFINITELY be booking with her again in the future! Don't think twice, book with Verona you and your pets will be so happy!!”
About: https://www.rover.com/sit/racheb16940 Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover who grew up surrounded by dogs and truly can’t imagine life without them. I’ve had my own dog, Dougie, since he was a puppy, so I understand firsthand the care, patience, and consistency dogs need at every stage of life. We’re a very active household — regular hikes, dog beach trips, long walks, and plenty of outdoor time are part of our routine. That said, I’m just as happy providing calm companionship, belly rubs, and lots of snuggles for dogs who prefer a slower pace. I pride myself on being reliable, trustworthy, and safety-focused. I pay close attention to routines, feeding instructions, and any special needs, and I always make sure dogs feel comfortable, secure, and loved while they’re in my care. Friends and family often trust me with their pets because they know I treat every dog like my own. Whether your dog needs exercise, structure, or simply a friendly face and extra affection, I’m here to help. I look forward to meeting you and your pup! I have full availability working from home. Dougie is eight, so I’ve had a solid routine since he was a puppy with lots of exercise and snuggles. I provide a safe, calm, and loving environment for every pet in my care. I carefully follow each pet’s routine, including feeding, walks, and any special instructions, to keep them comfortable and stress-free. Safety is always my top priority — I supervise pets closely, use leashes during walks, and keep spaces secure and hazard-free. Whether in my home or a client’s home, I treat every pet like my own and keep owners updated with regular messages and photos.
“Alicia was awesome!! We last minute needed someone to watch our high energy puppy over the week and she was the perfect help. She asked questions to make sure she knew just how to care for our mini Aussiedoodle while we were gone. I would definitely recommend her to other pet owners!”
“Vivian took wonderful care of my kitten, Hanny, while I was away for the weekend. She kept her fed, clean, and entertained and was a great communicator! We appreciate you so much!”

“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!”
“Our puppy had such a great time at their home. I loved their communication with me and their attention to make sure he was safely introduced to the new dogs. You can tell Michelle and Steve really love dogs.”
About: I grew up with a multi-poodle who was part of my life for 12 years. She was more than just a pet (she was family) and taking care of her taught me so much about what dogs need and how much love they give back. Since then, I’ve always been around dogs, whether it’s through friends or family, and it’s something that’s just always felt natural to me. I love being around them, and caring for them doesn’t feel like a task, it’s just something I genuinely enjoy. I am currently available anytime Monday through Friday. Outside of pet care, I just finished my bachelors degree in Architecture and am now studying for my licensing exams! Right now, I am offering pet care in my own home. I am also happy to care for pets in their own space, where they’re most comfortable. I always make sure to follow any instructions the owner provides, whether it’s feeding schedules, walks, playtime, or specific routines. I’m very attentive to each pet’s needs and personality, and I make it a priority to keep them feeling safe, happy, and well cared for while their owner is away.

“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.

“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.”
“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!”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs ever since I could remember. They’ve always been a major part of my life. I’ve pet/house sat countless times for neighbors and family friends. Your dog will be in safe hands with me! As of right now I am free whenever for whatever! I am just not available to board at my place right now. Currently looking for a summer job. When pet/house sitting, I always make sure the house is safe and all the animals and plants are taken care of. Perhaps some snacks may go missing however…
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover and experienced walker who understands how important it is to trust the person caring for your dog. I currently have my own dog, Lucha, and caring for him has only reinforced how much attention, patience, and consistency dogs need to feel safe and happy. I’ve grown up around dogs and have experience walking and caring for dogs of various sizes, energy levels, and personalities. I always prioritize safety, follow owner instructions closely, and tailor walks to your dog’s pace—whether that’s a long, energetic walk or a slower, sniff-focused stroll. I’m reliable, punctual, and communicative, and I’m happy to send updates and photos so you always know how your pup is doing. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your dog with the same care and respect they receive at home, I’d love to help. I work remotely with some days I have to be in the officr. My schedule is very flexible so please just message me and we can try to work something out! Most weekends are filled with sports so I’m usually unavailable then but always willing to accommodate if it fits. I am able to follow any instructions given. It’s important that you feel like your dog is safe with me so any crate, fence or leash requirements will surely be followed!
About: I’ve had my personal dog since I was 11 years old. He is always happy with me, smiles and loves me to death. He is quite old, but he is in a good health because I was looking after him, went to the veterinary with him, played with him, walked a lot and made him happy. I hope I will be able to share my love for pets and caring for them with your dogs! I am currently working part-time around 10-11 hours per week so I have a lot of free time and my schedule is flexible. Apart from working I can look after your dog but please schedule in advance. I have a backyard and a lawn for dogs to walk and play on. My neighborhood is safe and there are not a lot of big dogs there so small and medium dogs will feel good there.
About: I have grown up with dogs since I was born! I've walked and fed them for years. I currently have three dogs and a cat who I love very much. I have pet sit in the past as well as babysat! I am a college student who has class Monday-Thursday and works a restaurant job twice a week. However, I am happy to pet sit around those things! I can easily crate the pet if needed, take them on walks and potty breaks, play outdoors, feed and refill water when needed, and make them feel as comfortable as possible!

“Corinne and Christopher are great Rover sitters. They were very responsive to messages and most importantly took great care of my girl Busaba. I felt like she was in good hands. I would definitely recommend them and would use them again.”
“We are so lucky to have Michelle and Steve (and their sweet lab Daisy) for our Tapi. They are so caring and treat our big puppy like their own baby. He gets so much attention and they are always conscientious about keeping their dogs safe. Tapi absolutely LOVES going there and he had such a blast with his 5 night boarding with them.”
“Greg and Kateri were awesome and took our dog in like their own while we were away for a weekend. Provided lots of picture updates and were such great hosts. Will absolutely book again!”
“Deepika was wonderful. We set up a meeting with her within a week of needing her so it’s kind of a last-minute request and thank God she was available and met her at a park so that we could meet with her and her dog and she met us and she was kind and happy. She has a lovely home, and she took really good care of our dog and communicated with us daily, because her dog wasn’t feeling very well during her visit, and we felt extremely confident in her ability to take care of our sweet dog.”
“Holly kept me updated with pictures throughout the stay and was very affectionate and loving toward my senior dog. She was attentive to his disabilities and made sure his special needs were met. She is a very kind and compassionate dog sitter. I can tell my dog truly enjoyed his stay with her.”
“Max had a great stay ! Dahui responds immediately and we arranged a meet before the stay, which was great for Max and us. She has a nice yard/patio with lots of shade and quiet neighborhood. She is very responsive and sent lots of pictures. She was very accommodating with the pick up time . We will be happy to leave Max there again.”
“Sarah and Shelby were awesome! Definitely recommend for any of your pet’s services. They took in our 8 month old puppy with short notice for an overnight stay. We were in town from out of state to visit family and this was our dogs first stay away from home. We were updated with pleasant photos throughout the night and they were willing to keep her until noon the next day. Their dogs Ziggy and Titan were very friendly and played well together. We will be back!”
“Tatyanah & Everardo did an awesome job with my Pup Isla!!! My Pup is very timid around other pups, but Tatyanah, Everardo, and their pups made Her feel very welcome. I received videos and pictures throughout the time Isla stayed at their home. I asked them for feedback and tips on how I can get Isla more comfortable around other pups. I would definitely recommend them. Isla will be seeing them soon as I plan to bring Isla back! Thank you Tatyanah and Everardo!”
“I contacted Steph sort of very last minute and she took such a great care of Brownie and Bear. Due to an unexpected family issue, I couldn’t make it back on time as planned, She agreed and was happy to keep them until late night pickup. Thank you for taking such a wonderful care of them. They were very happy and joyful after the stay.”
“Gelare and Sama are wonderful pet sitters! We could tell through all the pictures and videos that Gelare took very good care of our little pup. From playing catch to tummy rubs, we were sure our pup was getting all the love and attention we were hoping for! Would highly recommend!”
“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!”
“This was my first time using someone from the Rover app, so obviously I was a little nervous leaving my guy for multiple days. Christine entirely exceeded any expectations I had for the experience, I received tons of pictures and updates throughout the entire time my buddy was with her. She definitely has “that vibe” you want from someone who’s taking care of your beloved companion. Thank you so much Christine!”
“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!”
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.”
“Jason was very good with my pet and relieved all worries with text and pictures and videos, I am so satisfied with his care. I will definitely use his services in the future”
“Annette took great care of our dog for an overnight stay. She truly cares about animals and our dog adored her. Our dog got lots of walking time and homemade treats! Would recommend and book again.”
“Matt and Kathryn are absolutely wonderful with our dogs. Never, in all our years of being pet owners, have we taken a vacation without our animals. But we just got back from a week abroad without any concerns for our pups because we knew they were in the very best care. Our dogs miss Matt and Kathryn and their dogs when they go too long between visits. It's so cute to see them get excited when we arrive. Can't recommend them enough.”
“Our Coco (mixed German Shepperd) had a great time! It was our first time to leave him, after his rescue 5 months ago. Coco played for 5 days running around the wonderful yard with his new friends! A video and pictures were sent, which was nice for us! When we picked him-he was so happy to see us and was ready to leave but first he ran back over to Andrea, for one last rub and to say thank you for taking care of me! That sealed the deal with us-she'll be our #1 person to call for our next trip!”
