“This was Rosie's first ever boarding outside our house and Hana made Rosie's visit stress-free. Hana was very responsive to my booking inquiry and welcoming when we visited to meet her in advance of booking. Hana sent photos and videos during the stay and I felt very comforted knowing Rosie was in good hands. I would definitely book with Hana again. Thanks, Hana!”
“Madison was communicative and asked all the right questions before boarding my dog. She sent regular updates and was flexible on time drop off/pick up. Really glad I found her as a dog sitter.”
“Our Frenchie stayed with Adriana and Cameron while we were in NYC for the week. She had the best time. We got 1-3 videos a day of her running around and claiming a stake on their couch :) They accommodated her needing to eat raw food and taking up space in their fridge. They were responsive and helpful and very timely. It was our first time using Rover and we had a great experience.”
“Dean and Madeira were amazing and I would highly recommend their family for doggy boarding! Sent lots of pictures and my pup and Rosa got along so well. Even had a few details like a cyst on my pup’s ear and special food and they knew exactly what to do. Thanks again!”
“Prompt responses and picture updates without having to ask. Boarding my puppy with Shileen I was given piece of mind my son was being taken care of and I was able to enjoy my vacation. I will be boarding with Shileen again !”
“Sam was great! When our other sitter canceled on us, he was able to do a meet & greet and accept our booking all within 24 hours of us going out of town. Our pup had a great time at his place, and he sent detailed updates/pictures every day. We will definitely use him again!”
“Linda took amazing care of our senior dog, who has medical needs and doesn’t warm up to just anyone—but she absolutely loved Linda. She made sure she was safe, comfortable, and well cared for the entire time. We got regular updates and pictures, which gave us total peace of mind knowing she was in good hands. You can tell Linda truly cares, and we’ll definitely be booking with her again. Highly recommend!”
“Highly recommend and will be boarding with her again! Great communication and consistent updates. She was also very helpful and flexible with some last minute changes to our trip. Wonderful service!”
“Aloha Rachelle, First time using Rover and, coming from Hawaii, I was a little nervous about leaving my pet with someone new…Rachelle was awesome watching Mochi while we spent a couple of days in Disneyland with family! She gave me updates and sent me pictures, which made me feel so much more confident that Mochi was in great hands..I would definitely recommend Rachelle… Mahalo for taking such great care of Mochi!!🌺”
“Marwa was great with our rescue corgi. We were apprehensive about leaving our dog with a sitter so soon after adopting her, but as soon as we met Marwa our anxieties were eased. She was great about providing us photos, videos, and updates about our sweet girl. I wouldn’t hesitate to use her again for our pet sitting needs.”
“Ozzy was taken care of very well and he got along great with the pups in the home. Kaitlin and her partner were very friendly and great at communicating and keeping us updated on our boy. Definitely will book again when needed.”

“Michell w was absolutely incredible and made Boogie feel right at home. I received a lot of cool video updates of my little guy and Michelle was juts excellent& super flexible. I will absolutely be booking with Michelle again and you should too!”
“Our Clover always gets the best care with Anar. It’s obvious that she enjoys being there when we’re away. She was wiped out after her last stay and passed out snoring when we got her home. Happy dog!”
“Pluto loved staying with Haylee. She sent plenty of updates and photos. I felt very confident that he was safe and well cared for. He made some new friends with her dogs.”
“Araceli is fantastic. My dogs love being with her. She is always so responsive and she let me drop off the dogs two hours earlier than I initially asked for which was really helpful due to travel plans changing.”
“I’m so glad we discovered Josh on Rover! He responded quickly to my request and arranged a meet & greet so we could see if our dog felt comfortable. It’s obvious he cares about the dogs he’s watching as one of his own, and we wouldn’t hesitate to book again in the future.”

“I had such a great experience with her! My cat can be a little particular with new people, but she warmed up to her right away, which says a lot. She showed up exactly when she said she would, followed all my instructions carefully, and clearly took the time to make sure everything was done properly. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing my cat was in good hands. I’ll definitely be rebooking and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring sitter.”
“Sara was great watching my cat for the weekend! She sent great updates and photos and he seemed very content :) definitely put my mind at ease while out of town”
“Sasha is the kind of sitter you hope to find on Rover and then never want to lose. 💛 This was our second time booking with her, and after having several other wonderful sitters, we can confidently say she is 100% our new go-to for our cat, Seaweed. Her level of care, attentiveness, communication, & genuine empathy is truly exceptional. Seaweed requires oral medication 2x daily, and Sasha handles her meds + entire routine flawlessly while still making each visit feel like actual quality time with her: snugs, scratches, playtime, treats, hangouts, & lots of love! Her experience with animals is obvious, and we have SO much peace of mind traveling knowing our little Weed is in incredibly capable hands. She consistently goes above & beyond, whether it’s helping keep Seaweed comfortable during a heat wave, taking care of little things around the house, spending extra time with her, or simply noticing the small details that show how closely she’s paying attention. And somehow, on top of everything else, she takes the absolute cutest/silliest photos of Seaweed we’ve ever seen. 🥹😂 We truly adore Sasha and cannot recommend her highly enough. She’s dependable, knowledgeable, compassionate, proactive, & genuinely loves the animals in her care. We feel incredibly lucky to have found her and will absolutely keep booking her whenever she’ll have us! 🤗🙏”
“Brenda was a wonderful cat sitter for our beloved Kickstand! She was reliable and communicative, and sent plenty of pictures and updates on if she was eating, got sick, etc. We’d absolutely request Brenda’s services again!”
“My kitty loved Sara! My puppy loved Sara! She sent me pics every day and I could see my cats happy face on it. She did a great job and was very attentive to detail! I would highly recommend her!”
“Mackenzie is an amazing cat sitter! The updates with photos daily give me peace of mind that my kitty is doing okay while I’m gone. Mackenzie is always on time and very responsive when messaged.”
“Madalyn has been such a great help when we travel. One of my cats always comes out to greet her while the other is such a scardy cat, he hides. She always leaves an update with pictures giving us peace of mind.”
“As always, Alyssa takes absolutely wonderful care of our kitties when my husband & I are out of town. She is kind, attentive, & caring. Thank you for being the best, Alyssa!”
“I'm so grateful that Susanne was able to accommodate my last minute request to check in on my cats over Thanksgiving. Susanne is professional and can apparently capture photos of even very shy cats :) I will be rebooking her services in the future.”
“Nancy was amazing! She kept me updated with pictures of my pet and followed feeding and playtime instructions like we had talked about in the meet and greet. She was also respectful of my home. Will definitely consider booking her again in the future!”
“Was so happy I was able to book with Destiny ! I had last minute plans and she was able to still schedule a meet in great. She understood my kitties needs and took the time to get him comfortable with her. She was beyond professional, kind, and trusting! Would recommend her to anyone and will be rebooking when needed 😊 Thank you again Destiny !”
“Another great experience with Hana! She's taken care of my cat 3 times now and I have no hesitation to have her take care of my cat in the future. Thank you Hana!”
“Aurora checked in on my cat, Luna, while I was out of town. She sent photos of Luna looking relaxed and updated me on how she was doing. In addition to doing basic care she loved on her, gave her catnip, and put the faucet on in the bathroom every day so Luna could drink out if it. I will definitely be booking with her again in the future.”
“Lynn was amazing! My two cats clearly loved spending time with her and took to her immediately during our meet and greet. She watered my plants, sent me lots of pictures, and was very communicative. I accidentally miscalculated how many days I’d need a sitter and she was super understanding and came to take care of the cats again on very short notice. I will definitely be asking Lynn to watch my cats again and would recommend her to anyone.”
“Maureen came to my place when I had to be away for an overnight trip. She took AMAZING care of my kitty Edmund by making sure he took his meds. She came armed with cat treats and a pill popper. I love how prepared she came. She is an experienced animal sitter and I will definitely book her again.”
“Jazmin was amazing at looking after my two kitties while I left on a trip. Gave lots of updates and looked after ny cats with excellent care and I was able to feel relaxed knowing my cats were in good care.”
“Stefanie took amazing care of our 2 fur babies. I love that she got on their level and played with them! Our cats were well loved while we went on vacation for a week. Highly recommend and we will be returning customers!! Thank you Stefanie.”
“We hired Alyssa for our two shy kitties pretty last minute for a two week trip out of the country. She did a phenomenal job keeping us updated with Rover Cards and reaching out if she needed anything, so we could really enjoy our trip. Our normally very shy cats warmed up to her really quickly, so it put us even more at ease. Would hire her again in a heartbeat!”

“y first experience with Rover was more than expected and my boy ,Bentley was so excited on our meet and greet..you'd think he'd been there before! I knew Adriana and Cameron were the best for my boy. They are very dog savvy and have a great "play" yard in back..I was updated with pics of my boy and his new pals, and was quite tired..highly reccomend Adriana and Cameron..I will definitely use them again!?”
“Todd and Bill are great; they set up a meet & greet and made sure my pup got along with their dogs. I already had a stay booked for a few days later this month, but needed doggy daycare for a day while I went up to Disneyland. They were flexible in the pickup/dropoff times, I got updates, pictures, and a video of Holly throughout the day, and I couldn't be happier. Holly has been home for hours and hasn't moved a muscle- she's totally pooped from playing all day. Will be booking with them again many times!”
“Michelle was great with our anxious senior pup! He has separation anxiety and she created a very calming environment for him to hang out at and had a great system to ensure that he was comfortable. She was communicative and easy to plan with. We’ll definitely book with her again!”
“This past weekend was our first time leaving our dog Bandit with Sam. Sam made us feel completely at ease the entire time we were away. We got pictures of Bandit and Sam checked in to let us know how he was doing. He is very professional and a great communicator. Thanks Sam, we’ll be back!”

She simply adores them and I’m 100% confident in leaving Nipsey for future stays and for our upcoming trip at the end of the year. Thank you, thank you!!!”
“Updates throughout the day, they were super understanding when I was running late from work, and when I picked up my dog at the end of the day I got a great summary of the day! Very knowledgable of dog behavior, and I felt very comfortable leaving my fur baby with them! Will definitely book in the future ?”
“Our dogs had the best time at Joseph and Chris’ home. We were in town just for the weekend and Joseph and Chris were very accommodating in hosting our pups while we went to the zoo. Communication leading up to the visit, and during their stay was phenomenal. Once we picked up our dogs, they fell asleep immediately, which is always a sign of a good time!”
“Our dog had a great stay with Clint and his partner! There were many friendly dogs that she could play with, they took her for a walk to a dog park for even more play, and we were sent frequent updates. We got a very tired and happy pup back, which is always great. Thanks Clint!”
“LeeAnn and her tiny hotdog doggie took great care of my dog while I was visiting San Diego for a concert! She sent me pics of them playing and they took him for a walk and when I picked him up for the night he was so pooped he fell right asleep. Thanks so much for the updates and pics and great care!”

“Susanee is an excellent dog sitter! She took great care of my dog, Zhuangzhuang, and there was also another Bernese dog for them to play with, which helped Zhuangzhuang burn off a lot of energy. Plus, Susanee has a large, fenced yard, perfect for active pets. Zhuangzhuang had a fantastic day!”

“Karilou is probably the best dog walker Gus and I've had. He adores her. One day I stayed home from work and forgot to contact Karilou. Gus knew she was coming before I did. When she arrived a was so glad because I was too sick to walk Gus. I thought he was going to knock her over he was so happy to see her. Thanks Karilou! I know Gus is always happy to spend time with you!”
“Paige is wonderful with my dog, who has leash anxiety. As our regular dog walker, she is always punctual and communicative. On our first visit, Paige took the time to ask thoughtful questions about his triggers, routines, allergies, treats, and do’s and don’ts before starting. She handled him calmly and patiently, making safety and positive interactions a clear priority. I really appreciated how attentive and understanding she is, which gave me peace of mind knowing my dog was in caring, capable hands. Highly recommend!”
“Emily J. filled in at the last minute for my weekly Saturday afternoon walk. She is very friendly, and my dog liked her instantly. She is on time and professional. I would definitely recommend her as a walker.”
“I booked Kat to walk my dog for the week while I was out of town. My dog has extremely high energy, and can sometimes too much for some people. Kat was amazing with him though, and I could tell he responded well to her. She knew when he needed to get more energy out and ran with him, handled him when he got too excited, and was patient in his moments of overwhelming excitement. I will 100% book Kat again in the future when I need someone to care for my dog.”
“Daniel is the best! Great with my Cane Corso, she’s a sweet girl but can be hard headed. This is my 2nd week using him and I couldn't be more appreciative of his communication, professionalism and very kind easy going nature. My dog absolutely loves him!”
“Bebo was an excellent walker for our dog Spike! Very easy to communicate with and left thoughtful and descriptive summaries of the visits. Felt very much like our pup was in capable hands and we would definitely recommend!”
About: Hi, all! My name is Grace. I have been taking care and walking dogs my whole life, I but entered the professional pet care industry about 10 years ago. I love taking care of dogs and other animals from all walks of life, as I believe all living things should have the best quality of life that they possibly can. I have also been an athlete for over two decades, and cannot wait to have fun getting active with your animals. I offer jogging/running for the more athletic pups, and a more leisurely stroll for the dogs that like to take life a bit slower, as well as dog-sitting and drop-ins for all animals in between. I can't wait to meet you and your fluffy friends! I work part time in the afternoons and evenings, so I able to take your pets out for a fun activity in the mornings and afternoons until 2pm. I look forward to building a relationship with your furry friends! I do not offer in-home care as I live with roommates and a strictly human-friendly cat, but I love to extend my hospitality to the setting where your pet is most comfortable, their own home. I am pleased to offer safe and fun care while I am in your home, with lots of activity or snuggles depending on the energy levels.
“Molina was great. She agreed to meet the doggies before and they were so excited to see her. She was on time to walk them, played them him a little, and made sure they had water after.”
“Hana is amazing! I have been extremely scatterbrained and she’s been very understanding and worked with me when I messed up our walking schedule. She is a true dog whisperer and I trust her with our (sometimes very angry) 13 year old husky. She is very patient with him (and me) and has been a real lifesaver for dog walking on our busy 15 hour days!”
“Providing exceeding service (mentality) is impeccable! She’s been our go-to only for a few months, 1-2 weekly on/off but during this period, we made a lot of asks and she managed them all swiftly with extra care! I thank how you were raised and how you are embracing the embedded character because it is very noteworthy!!!!”
“Kaitie was awesome! Took River on long walks, communicated with me so super well, and not to mention, took literal professional headshots of River 📸. Would 10/10 recommend!”
“Monique is such an amazing pet guardian. She works well to accommodate and flexes with my schedule, is communicative and has such a calmness about her that my dog and cats all like and trust her. I’m at ease when I know my pets are under her care whenever I’m away.”
“Zere is a wonderful dog walker who is prompt, courteous and definitely loves our little cinnamon. She follows our directions very well because cinnamon is diabetic and needs special attention. She truly is one of the best dog walkers we have ever hired. Cinnamon waits for her and gets so excited when she appears at the door. It is so great to see our little dog so happy to go for a walk.”
“Andrea was absolutely fantastic! Very responsive during the initial process and always on time. Our dog loved her and we will definitely contact her for our future dog sitting needs.”

“I recently boarded my two dogs, Zuko and Dante, with Kirsten for two weeks and couldn’t be happier with the experience. From the start, she was attentive and caring, making sure to follow their daily routine so well that when I picked them up, they slipped right back into it without any trouble. This really showed how consistent and thoughtful she was with their care. Zuko requires daily medication, and Kirsten made sure he received every dose right on time, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. She also kept me updated with pictures throughout their stay, and it was easy to see how happy and comfortable both Zuko and Dante were with her. It’s always a little nerve-wracking leaving your pets, but Kirsten made it such a stress-free experience. I could tell my boys were in good hands the entire time. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and loving to care for their pets!”
“Taylor and Andrew gave us such peace of mind leaving our elderly vizsla, River, for 4 nights. Not only are they the most caring people, but they welcomed River like she was one of their own, sent pic and video updates, gave her daily meds, and even introduced her to her new favorite toy. We will definitely ask for another doggie staycation in the future.”
“Bill and Todd were great with my Bumi! They sent pictures every day and calmed my anxiety as a first time user of this app. Bumi looked so happy in the pictures. Will definitely use again. Thank you both!!”
