“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 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!”
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).
“Maya and Corwin are truly phenomenal! Pixie enjoyed every minute while under their watchful care. Their daily pictures and updates clearly showed Pixie was loved and cared for. Maya and Corwin also don’t take in more animals than they can expertly care for. Truly the BEST. Will definitely book again!!!”
“Crystal came through for us last minute and she was great with Baxter! She provided an update and showed that my shy and timid dog warmed up to her and her family just as expected. Communication from start to finish was awesome too! Will definitely book with her again.”
“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.”
“Ankea and Fane are true dog people. Everything they did exuded love and care for my dog. My girl Ellie is a bit scared of other dogs, so Ankea offered to do a meet and greet beforehand with her two boys. She asked to walk all 3 dogs so they could get used to each other. This was all before the booking!! During the weekend Ellie was treated with so much love and kindness. I could tell from the photos and videos that Ellie was very relaxed and having a great time (she was actually playing while away from home!). Ankea's two older dogs are very relaxed and did not give Ellie any problems while she was in their space. I highly recommend Ankea as a dog sitter and will be using her again.”
“Greg and Kat were so wonderful with my dog Mando! It was my first time using Rover for my dog and I was a bit nervous but they kept me updated the entire time with lots of pictures. He always looked well cared for. Highly recommend!”
“Holly was an amazing sitter for Hazel. I received regular pupdates with pictures and in every single photo Hazel looked absolutely comfortable and happy with Holly, her home, and her family (including her 2 dogs). I feel 100% confident and comfortable using Holly’s services in the near future and would recommend her to anyone.”
“Sooooo glad we found Demi to take care of our elderly lab. Her house, yard space, tender loving care and dedication to our old gal was perfect. We got daily updates/videos which is a huge comfort. Will plan to have Demi care for our lab for any future needs”
“Khamsay and Amit were wonderful with Murphy!! They were very thorough at the start of boarding to make sure that they understood all of her care guidelines. We got multiple pictures throughout the day and it seems like Murphy got a lot of walks and play time!! Very sweet and attentive family!”
“Michelle and Steve are awesome, they took amazing care of our Husky puppy while we were away. He had the absolute best time staying with them and Daisy! We’d love it if he can stay again in the future and we’re so grateful for Michelle’s organization and experienced approach - even with large breeds. Thank you!”
“Martin and Crystal watched Denali and Liberty last weekend and did a great job. They treated both dogs like their own, kept me updated, and I could tell the dogs were comfortable and happy the whole time. I fully trust them with my pets and will absolutely book with them again. Highly recommend!”
“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.”
“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”
“Deepika and her family cared for our dog over the weekend. Our dog had a great time and was well looked after. Lots of pictures and text updates which we appreciated. They have a fenced yard and spacious comfortable house which they allow the dogs to play in. I would recommend this home away from home.”
“Marta was great! She was super responsive, communicated very well and I could tell my dog was in the best hands. She sent me a ton of photos and videos every day! I will definitely use her again in the future!”
“Marley had a fantastic time with Jenny! She was great about sending lots of pictures and videos so we always felt in the loop. He got lots of trips to the dog park and enjoyed playing with her dog Lucky. I know he’s already looking forward to his next visit with her!”
“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!”

“Kimberly was so amazing! This was the first time that we left our cat for an elongated period of time and we were so pleased with her communication. We felt that our cat was in great hands and care with Kimberly. Our cat is typically very social but it turns out he had more separation anxiety than we had anticipated. Kimberly went above and beyond, and put in a huge amount of effort to make our cat feel comfortable and safe. Thank you again Kimberly!!”
“Robyn was amazing with our shy cat. She is sensitive and caring. She asked questions to understand our cat. She sent us a lot of pictures and kept us updated about her well being so we could be stress-free and enjoy our vacation.”
“Lisa is an absolute gem! She cared for our 2 cats, one of which can be quite spicy, as if they were her own. She gave them plenty of play time and love, and sent us lots of photos and updates throughout her stay. We will definitely be booking with Lisa in the future!”
“Lizzy was an AMAZING caregiver for my 3 cats and corn snake!!! My kitties instantly vibes with her - weren’t nervous at all to come up and say hi to her, which was an instant good sign for me. They usually hide when new people come over. They require very specific feeding instructions that she followed to a TEA. She even took proper care of them when she watched them for some outside time in our backyard. I never felt nervous that something might wrong while she watched them. She took great pictures, was very responsive the entire time, and went the extra mile to play with them and make sure they felt comfortable the entire time. I can’t recommend her enough!!!!”
“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!”
“Aubrey is the best! Looks like our dog had a great time based on the adorable pictures she got of him, and everything was in order when we got home. Absolutely will keep using Aubrey to care for our boy!”
“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.”
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. Outside of pet care, I just finished my bachelors degree in Architecture and am now studying for my law school entrance exam! 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.
“Our cat never lacked for any attention or care during our absence. Jamie was great, professional, kind and did everything we asked her to for Quinn. She spent quality time with her as we had asked, including play time. She provided wonderful pictures of Quinn during her visits. Absolutely fulfilled our needs and exceeded our expectations. Weel worth the five-star rating.”
“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!”
“Was my first time leaving my babies with someone, Lauren sent over lots of pictures and gave great updates. She was very friendly and I will definitely be reaching out to her if I need boarding or drop ins! Highly recommend :)”
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!
“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!”
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). I am also a plant lover with experience tending to indoor and outdoor plants.
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.
About: We understand that cats have their own unique personalities and routines, and we take pride in caring for them just the way you would. Whether your kitty loves playtime, cozy cuddles, or quiet companionship, we tailor our care to match their preferences. We have experience with everything from energetic kittens to senior cats who need extra patience and gentle handling. You can expect regular updates, photos, and peace of mind knowing your feline friend is safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away.
“We were out of town for a week and a half and Lindsay took wonderful care of our two cats. She was always on time, did not rush and made sure the cats got the attention they needed, and she was great at sending pictures and communicating as needed. This is our second time having Lindsay take care of our pets and I plan to use her as needed in the future and would highly recommend her.”

My goal is to save the dogs that are close to being put down or they have severe behavior problems. In my family we have a total of 6 dogs right now, my mother fostered many dogs and puppies which opened my eyes to such an incredible experience and knowledge. I know how to handle dogs from tiny to large, I am very strong and can handle big dogs larger than 70 lb. I love dogs (and cats) with a passion and would love to be able to help in any way that I can. Thank you for taking the time to consider me!

“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!”
“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.”
“We did a test day care session with Johna and Raymond to make sure our Bella would be ok at a new place as we have never taken her to a doggie daycare or have boarded her anywhere. She and Bentley were very well taken care of and did great at their sitters' home. I'm so happy to have found them so that we can finally take a vacation and know that our fur babies are in good hands!”

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.

They are super nice and loved having her. We are super happy we found them and will definitely have them watch Lola for us anytime they want to!”
“Kara was amazing! My anxious and hyperactive pup loooves going to see her. She comes back calm, content, and happily worn out.

Best of all she is so clearly at ease when I drop her off in the mornings that I am able to relax at work knowing she’s happy and in good hands.”

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).
“Crystal came through for us last minute and she was great with Baxter! She provided an update and showed that my shy and timid dog warmed up to her and her family just as expected. Communication from start to finish was awesome too! Will definitely book with her again.”
“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.”
“Greg and Kat were so wonderful with my dog Mando! It was my first time using Rover for my dog and I was a bit nervous but they kept me updated the entire time with lots of pictures. He always looked well cared for. Highly recommend!”
“Holly was an amazing sitter for Hazel. I received regular pupdates with pictures and in every single photo Hazel looked absolutely comfortable and happy with Holly, her home, and her family (including her 2 dogs). I feel 100% confident and comfortable using Holly’s services in the near future and would recommend her to anyone.”
“Khamsay and Amit were wonderful with Murphy!! They were very thorough at the start of boarding to make sure that they understood all of her care guidelines. We got multiple pictures throughout the day and it seems like Murphy got a lot of walks and play time!! Very sweet and attentive family!”
“Michelle and Steve are awesome, they took amazing care of our Husky puppy while we were away. He had the absolute best time staying with them and Daisy! We’d love it if he can stay again in the future and we’re so grateful for Michelle’s organization and experienced approach - even with large breeds. Thank you!”
“Martin and Crystal watched Denali and Liberty last weekend and did a great job. They treated both dogs like their own, kept me updated, and I could tell the dogs were comfortable and happy the whole time. I fully trust them with my pets and will absolutely book with them again. Highly recommend!”
“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.”
“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”
“Deepika and her family cared for our dog over the weekend. Our dog had a great time and was well looked after. Lots of pictures and text updates which we appreciated. They have a fenced yard and spacious comfortable house which they allow the dogs to play in. I would recommend this home away from home.”
“Marta was great! She was super responsive, communicated very well and I could tell my dog was in the best hands. She sent me a ton of photos and videos every day! I will definitely use her again in the future!”
“Marley had a fantastic time with Jenny! She was great about sending lots of pictures and videos so we always felt in the loop. He got lots of trips to the dog park and enjoyed playing with her dog Lucky. I know he’s already looking forward to his next visit with her!”
“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!”
“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!”
“Jocelyn was a great sitter! She was very responsive when it came to communication and appreciated that she asked before treating my dog to a pup cup. Would def book again!”
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.”
“This was the first time hiring Norma. It was a very last minute booking due to last minute issue on my end. Norma was so gracious and willing to help. She was very communicative during the entire time and my dog seems to have enjoyed her company. I will definitely be booking her again. Thank you, Norma.”
