“Ning was absolutely fantastic, she took amazing care of my dog! She went above and beyond and really made my dog feel like he was apart of her family. I’m very particular when it comes to my furbaby, but her care, attention to detail and knowledge were amazing and left no doubt that she would do a spectacular job!”
“Patricia was so great with my Teddy! I never felt worried once while I was away on my trip. She sent me photo updates and every time he looked so comfy and content. I appreciate the one on one time Patricia gave to my pup and couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for my first time using Rover.”
“Im so glad we found them. They took such good care of our Lola. Sent us alot of updates of her. And in the pictures i could see that she was really enjoying herself. When we come again to California we will definitely keep them in mind.”
“Eunice was wonderful with our puppy. This was our first time using Rover and Oakley being a puppy, we were nervous leaving him. Eunice was super sweet and patient with Oakley during the entire stay. Eunice sent detailed updates and pictures throughout his stay. She was also very patient and understanding even when Oakley was anxious and scared causing him to act out of character. She kept Oakley active with walks and socialization with other dogs and Oakley got plenty of petting and affection.”
“Bernard and Hung were AMAZING! They were able to help me out at the last minute and they loved my dog as though she was their own! They sent me pictures and gave me updates every day, and I felt really great that my pup was not just safe and well cared for, but happy and having fun during my trip. I will DEFINITELY use them again!”
“Absolutely wonderful sitter for our puppy! We will definitely use her services again. She sent us picture updates and was very flexible with our availability! So trustworthy and kind!”
“Our pups were so happy staying with Diana. She did a fantastic job caring for them. Our vacation was so enjoyable knowing what good hands our Kane and Kobe were in. Diana sent pictures, walked the pups and showed them so much love. We highly recommend Diana and we will definitely use her again in the future.”
“Candi was excellent. She made my dog feel welcomed and safe. She did a great job indroducing my dog into her new surroundings and kept me up to date on what she was doing throughout each day and sent pictures. I would highly recommend candi. Thank you so much.”
“My dog always comes home so happy and content after being in Nickole's care :) She's always great about updating me throughout the stay. I'm never worried as I know he's is in good hands!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for 10 years. I have experience taking care of dogs with senior care, which includes medications, and making food. Dogs both small and large. I currently work part time and am able to do dog walks when needed. I also can board dogs at my home and walk them before and after shifts. I have a fenced yard where dogs can room for a potty break. I have experience with senior dogs and am able to administer medication. I love all dogs and have experience with small, delicate dogs.
“Ashley was amazing with our two girls! They loved being with her and got plenty of attention. I was happy to receive lots of pictures of their dog park outings too! They came home freshly bathed and very happy. We will definitely rebook with Ashley again.”
“Cheryl’s the best. She is experienced, has a pet friendly home setting & ready to give your furry family member all the love & care as you would. .. and the pictures she sends are comforting. You won’t be disappointed!”
“Once again had an amazing experience with Bennie & Jennie. Received lots of photo and text updates so we knew how both of our cats were doing during our short weekend trip. Even with one of our cats taking a while to get comfortable being away from us, we knew they were both well taken care of during their stay.”
“Oscar was an amazing, responsible dog sitter to my two dogs. We met prior to the dates so they would be more comfortable with him. During their stay with him, we were in constant contact, so I knew they were in good hands. He was sending videos, pics, and texts to let me know how they were doing. They had plenty of walks and play time. When I picked them up, Oscar described my dogs' personalities and behavior like he knew them for years. He was so attentive and caring to them. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a dog sitter. I will definitely be reaching out to him the next time I need a sitter!”
“Beth and Sean, we want to thank you infinitely for taking care of my "fur-son." You were loving, responsible, and truly dedicated to caring for Vlacho. You followed all the instructions regarding his feeding, walks, and favorite games. We hope to see you in Colombia! Best regards.”
“We feel confident that our dogs were in good hands with Natalia. She sent us plenty of updates, was responsive with any questions we had during the boarding, and even followed up after the boarding was over to check in on our pups. We love that she made our dogs part of her family, bringing them to one of her son's activities. This is especially helpful for our younger dog Nicko who really benefits from opportunities to socialize. It was obvious that Nicko and Nola were comfortable with Natalia and that they would enjoy staying in her home again.”
“Rebecca is the best! From the meet and greet to Gimli’s first stay, I could tell she was great. She communicated well, gave daily updates, and let me know when there were issues.”
“My dog Apollo had a great time staying with JK! He was well entertained while I was away and when my dog’s old harness broke they even had an extra one for him to use. I would let Apollo stay with them anytime!”
“Jennifer did a great job taking care of Gunner. She is very diligent in providing photos. He was exposed to lots of things that kept him busy including a cat which was a new up/close experience. We appreciate all she did and have already booked her for another time. Highly recommended her!”

“Andrea is great! She took care of my two kitties while I was away and was so communicative with me throughout the visits. I received pictures/videos and could tell they were getting all the loves. Thank you so much Andrea! :)”
“Carolina did an amazing job with my pup. She’s played with him as well as fed him. She also made sure that I was updated and communicated very well with me. I definitely recommend her and will definitely hire her again for Koda.”
“Carrisa is amazing! She was very communicative and I was really happy with the service she provided which helped me have peace of mind while I was away. I will definitely book her again in the future!”
About: I grew up with cat’s and was raised by two animal loving parents who taught me early on the importance of respecting an animals space and autonomy. Going above and beyond for our pets was just a way of life and something I have carried with me into my pet sitting business. Every cat is as unique as we are as people and with that some prefer covered litter boxes while others like to be out in the open. Some are your happy go lucky couch buddy while others are more like reincarnated royalty and expect to be treated as such!
“Astrid was absolutely amazing with our 2 boys! We had no one to turn to while we were away for our wedding and Astrid was able to provide such excellent service and keep them company! We are so so grateful for her and anyone who books with her can be confident that their pets are in great hands!”
About: I'm ready for hot girl walks for the time and I hope your pup is too. I've grown up and raised dogs of my own, but being in California for school meant leaving him (Butter) behind temporarily. My heart is empty and open to welcome and love yours. I am a second year PA student so most of my schedule is made by me, which will allow me to be flexible and have ample time to feed, walk, and play with your best friend! I treat every pet like my own and aim to create a safe, cozy, and fun environment. I follow routines, keep things pet-safe, and make sure each pet gets the attention and playtime they need. You’ll also get updates along the way and as many additional ones you'd like!
“Amy was wonderful with our kitties! They absolutely loved her (even our very shy boy who is scared of most people). She provided us with lots of pictures and updates about our babies.”
“Jane was such an amazing pet sitter! One of my kittens is very shy with people but he warmed up to her and liked her so much! All of my kittens loved her company. I’m very pleased with her service and definitely book her again in the future!!!”
About: I have over nearly 15 years experience with various pets. Over a decade of experience with family/friends dog care. I’m an easy going animal lover. I do accept multiple dogs to assure your pup has company at all times ☺️ We are a household of three experienced carers. I’m an independent contractor who can be home whenever I please. I work just a few minutes away from home and usually make multiple stops home per day. My partner works from home so your pups always have company. My home is a calm quiet place with a big yard. It has plenty of room and an easily accessible walking area. I can be playful or calm depending on your pups preference.
About: I’ve cared for cats for 10+ years—kittens, seniors, shy cats, and those who prefer humans at a respectful distance. I’m great at giving them space, letting them make the first move, and earning trust on their timeline. Whether they want quiet companionship, structured play, or just someone who understands their quirks, I’m here to keep your cat happy, stress-free, and fully in charge (as they prefer).
“日本人の方にお勧めのシッターさんです。She is the best house sitter you could ask for. We have two crazy giant cats who had been nightmares for the past sitters. I couldn’t enjoy my vacation without receiving continuous calls or texts from them complaining about them. This is my first vacation which I could relax thanks to Yoshiko. She communicated daily with pictures and videos. She left our house cleaner than we left it for her stay also. Both of our crazy cats looked happy to see us when we got home, but they also looked relaxed. We could tell they were well taken care of.”
“Yichen was the first sitter I booked on Rover, and she completely exceeded my expectations. I feel really lucky to have found her right away. She took such thoughtful and attentive care of my cat — not just feeding, but also spending time playing and keeping him company. You can tell she genuinely loves animals. My cat was happy and relaxed the whole time, which gave me so much peace of mind. I couldn’t have asked for a better first experience, and I would absolutely book Yichen again!”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Central City
Prices are estimates per day for 1 dog. Pricing may vary based on your search and includes a booking fee of 11%.
About: We've had dogs all of our lives. We'll love yours like our own! Experienced with diabetic dogs, intact dogs, and pups with unique needs. Families continually ask us back because their dogs feel at home with us. We are attentive and provide warm, consistent care, and a bunch of pictures because we know the feeling of being apart from our dog family when we go on vacation. Home care opportunities are welcomed, and we keep your place super tidy as how you left it! We are currently just a one-dog owner as we lose our Rachel in January and are trying to keep our Sunny active/involved with another dog even if only for walks. We walk our dog 4x/day some shorter and some longer, but based on your dogs needs, we'll adjust accordingly. We live in a condo building so we have to take your dog out to relieve themselves. Depending on their needs, we'll go out at least 4x day or less if desired. We'll work with you to understand your dog's needs and we'll meet them. They will always be leashed and guided along your neighborhood or ours.
“Ning was so kind and gentle with Princess. Every time Princess was with her she would always feel so calm and at peace. She was very patient with her given that princess had dementia and a lot of anxiety.”
“Hanah and Dabin are the best daycare provider I have met so far. They are friendly, responsible, and punctual. They took our Peanut for walks multiple times a day and sent us lots of pictures and updates. I truly appreciate the care and attention they gave him. I’d strongly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy daycare provider.”
“Emma had a great time at Patricia's house. She was very relaxed and happy when I picked her up. Patricia lives a very short drive from the Costa Mesa Fairgrounds so if you are attending an all-day event there and don't want to have to worry about leaving your furry friend to fend for themselves all day, I highly recommend leaving your pet with Patricia. She is knowledgeable about dogs and very conscientious, having gone the extra mile to ensure that Emma was not able to get to any other animal's food (since Emma has food allergies). Patricia also texted me pics during the day of Emma enjoying her walk, which further helped to make my day more enjoyable by putting my mind at ease. I will not hesitate to book with Patricia again the next time I'm in the area!”
“Jennifer did a great job with Callaway!! She kept us updated throughout her stay and was able to give her medication for us! We felt at ease and would book Jennifer again in a heartbeat! :)”
“I have used a few sitters before but Candi set a néw high bar. He came back with such a smile on his face and was wagging his tail when he came the second time. Candi is the best sitter you need to use for your dog. Thanks. Jeff”

“This was the first time I’ve ever had someone watch my dog in their home. I can’t begin to express how at ease Nancy & Richard made me. From having a preliminary meet & greet to ease and convenience of arranging my first appointment with them. I knew from their profile, they’d be a great fit for me. Drop off and pick up was quick and easy. My dog was happy to see me but didn’t rush out the door so I know he was happy and content afterwards. During his visit I received a few pictures and updates so I knew he was being very well cared for. Look very forward to booking again!”
“Ashley is seriously the best. Having a border collie means lots of care and attention. Ashley knows that and always handles her like the professional that she is. We really really appreciate her !! Ashley is the best sitter and great person in general, no one can compare. Thank you Ashley for everything!”
About: Hi, my name is Michelle. Over the years I’ve raised and trained many of my own pets and regularly dog sit for all of my family. I currently have one dog, a Rat Terrier named Memo. He is high energy but he's a happy boy and has the best temperament. For housesitting, please be advised that I will be bringing Memo to stay with me at your home. If you want to see more of my cutie, check out his bio. I’ve cared for dogs of all kinds, from playful puppies who need extra attention and playtime to older dogs who just need a slower pace and a little extra patience. I’m comfortable managing multiple dogs of all sizes. That includes 'pullers' and/or dog reactive from my experience walking dogs at shelters. Here are a few things I’m happy to help with: • Walks, playtime, and activities that keep your dog active and engaged • Puppy guidance and reinforcement of training routines if requested • Patient care for senior dogs or pets with special needs (including administering medications) • Flexible scheduling when possible • Pick up/Drop off within 5 miles of my house. (Main & Civic Center in Santa Ana) • Grooming (only the basics: bathing, drying, brushing.) Price depends on size and length of fur. Sorry, no nail trims. • Dependable care with the same love and attention I give my own dog. (Snuggling always included!) I'd love to schedule a meet-and-greet to meet you and your pet! I do project based work from home so I'm present and not tied down to a rigid schedule which means I have the time and flexibility to give your pet attention when needed. I have a Rat Terrier who gets a long with all dogs, he loves to play but is pretty respectful of dogs who are not into it. Dogs have free rein of my house. I spend a good amount of time with them outside in the yard, they are never let out without supervision.
“Amazing experience sending Tony to daycare with Morgan! Tony was so well taken care of and clearly felt comfortable right away. We loved getting updates and seeing how he was doing throughout the day. He came home happy which was all we could ask for. We’d 100% book again!”
“This is the second time we have used Hector to care for our fur babies. As always he was so kind and loving. Above all he was very communicative and kept us in the loop throughout their entire stay. I love being updated on their walks and the “ and now we r napping and watching the news” messages. Thank you again hector. We appreciate you :)”

“She was amazing with our pup while my family and I were at Disney. Communication was excellent, and we loved receiving regular photo updates throughout her stay. We would absolutely book with her again if we ever return to California.”
“Mariela & Dalton are cool vibe dog people. This really helped my two pups settle in quickly and relax. Communication was spot on! Thanks for taking great care with the girls.”

“Monica was absolutely amazing with our previous sensitive little guy. Monica put an anxious fur baby Mums mind at ease and kept me updated about how much fun Bailey was having! Monica also gave Bailey lots of cuddles which he loves. Bailey will definitely be back! I could not rate Monica’s care any higher. Thank you!!!”
About: I have been taking care of my own dog since 2016 and have grown up around dogs my entire life. I have several dogs in my family and have regularly dog-sat for friends and relatives since I was a kid. While I don’t currently have time to commit to a full-time dog of my own due to school, I truly enjoy being able to care for and spend time with pets through sitting and walking.

As a pharmacy student, I spend a lot of time studying at home, which allows me to give pets consistent attention, supervision, and companionship. I also enjoy spending time outdoors and am happy to tailor walks, playtime, and activity levels based on each pet’s individual needs and routine. I prioritize creating a safe, calm, and comfortable environment for every pet in my care, whether in my home or the owner’s home. I closely follow each pet’s routine, feeding schedule, and any special instructions provided. I am attentive, reliable, and respectful of both pets and their homes.

“Doug was seriously a lifesaver for our dog Tony while we went on vacation! We were able to fully relax knowing Doug had taken on all the responsibilities for Tony! He was always on time for his walks. We learned from Doug about training and tricks for Tony! He wrote very detailed reports every single day that we were excited to read!! Doug was reliable, friendly, and thoughtful during the whole time we were gone with phenomenal communication! Doug is a fantastic dog walker that we can fully trust and feel comfortable while we were away! We highly recommend Doug for all your animal’s needs ! We will be requesting Doug again and again!”

I will be on the lookout for your pet and our surroundings when we are out on walks.
“Sarah is super accommodating and extremely kind! She treated our puppy as her own and spoiled her with lots of snuggles. We even felt comfortable enough to extend our vacation because we knew our puppy was in the very best hands while we were away!”
About: I've been caring for dogs for over 19 years and understand that every pet has their own personality, needs, and routine. I have experience with puppies, adult dogs, and senior pets, including administering medications, following special feeding instructions, and providing extra patience and attention for older dogs. As a dog owner myself, I know how important it is to find someone trustworthy and dependable to care for your pet. Whether it's a walk, drop-in visit, or overnight stay, I'll treat your dog like one of my own and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I'm attentive to details, reliable with communication, and happy to send updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while your pet is in my care. I currently have a flexible part time job that allows me the freedom to care for your pet on my off days! My job fluctuates weekly but is flexible on requesting days off so I could easily work around that to ensure I have time to spend with your furry kids! As a pet owner myself, I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your furry family member. I treat every pet as if they were my own and prioritize safety, patience, and kindness at all times. I’m attentive to routines, comfortable administering medications if needed, and happy to provide updates and photos throughout each visit. My goal is to make sure both you and your pet feel comfortable, safe, and stress-free. I have a fenced yard but also would be able to take them on walks as needed.
About: I’ve taken care of my own pets for over 5 years now. I’ve also had many dogs growing up. I am very passionate about pets and look forward to meeting your furry friend! I currently work part-time at a senior living facility as well as go to nursing school part-time. My work schedule is Sunday/Mondays night shift. School days are currently Tuesday/Thursdays night classes and Saturdays 7am-4pm for clinicals. My boyfriend and I live together and will be able to help out when I am not physically at the house. I live in a townhouse with a small enclosed patio. The community we live in is located next to a large park with grass to run and trails to walk around. I am young, agile and willing to travel to hiking locations in order to ensure your pet has the best experience possible!
“Thank you so much for having Yuna come by and hangout in your neighborhood! We’re super excited to have Yuna do Doggy Daycare this upcoming weekend. Rare to finding someone that Yuna gets along with instantly and grateful for all the love and care that you may provide for her like one of your own :) Would highly recommend Naomy for any dog sitting/walks as she always strives to go above and beyond the original scope. Thanks again!”
About: I’m the friend who always gets the "can you watch my dog?" call because I’ve been around pups of all shapes and sizes since I was five. That lifetime of experience means I’m just as comfortable keeping up with a rambunctious puppy as I am providing a calm, gentle environment for a sweet senior who needs a little extra patience. Pet care fits perfectly into my active lifestyle. My days already revolve around long walks and staying moving, so your pup becomes my dedicated plus-one for every adventure. My schedule is flexible, and when I’m with your pet, they are my main priority—I treat their routine with the same care and focus I give my own. I treat your home and your pet with the same respect I’d want for my own. Whether we're hanging out at my place or yours, I focus on creating a secure, "paws-on" environment where routines are followed strictly so your pet feels safe. I’m all about clear updates and total transparency, so you can relax knowing they’re in good, experienced hands.

“Ning was absolutely fantastic, she took amazing care of my dog! She went above and beyond and really made my dog feel like he was apart of her family. I’m very particular when it comes to my furbaby, but her care, attention to detail and knowledge were amazing and left no doubt that she would do a spectacular job!”
“Patricia was so great with my Teddy! I never felt worried once while I was away on my trip. She sent me photo updates and every time he looked so comfy and content. I appreciate the one on one time Patricia gave to my pup and couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for my first time using Rover.”
“Im so glad we found them. They took such good care of our Lola. Sent us alot of updates of her. And in the pictures i could see that she was really enjoying herself. When we come again to California we will definitely keep them in mind.”
“Eunice was wonderful with our puppy. This was our first time using Rover and Oakley being a puppy, we were nervous leaving him. Eunice was super sweet and patient with Oakley during the entire stay. Eunice sent detailed updates and pictures throughout his stay. She was also very patient and understanding even when Oakley was anxious and scared causing him to act out of character. She kept Oakley active with walks and socialization with other dogs and Oakley got plenty of petting and affection.”
“Bernard and Hung were AMAZING! They were able to help me out at the last minute and they loved my dog as though she was their own! They sent me pictures and gave me updates every day, and I felt really great that my pup was not just safe and well cared for, but happy and having fun during my trip. I will DEFINITELY use them again!”
“Absolutely wonderful sitter for our puppy! We will definitely use her services again. She sent us picture updates and was very flexible with our availability! So trustworthy and kind!”
“My dog always comes home so happy and content after being in Nickole's care :) She's always great about updating me throughout the stay. I'm never worried as I know he's is in good hands!”
“Beth and Sean, we want to thank you infinitely for taking care of my "fur-son." You were loving, responsible, and truly dedicated to caring for Vlacho. You followed all the instructions regarding his feeding, walks, and favorite games. We hope to see you in Colombia! Best regards.”
“We feel confident that our dogs were in good hands with Natalia. She sent us plenty of updates, was responsive with any questions we had during the boarding, and even followed up after the boarding was over to check in on our pups. We love that she made our dogs part of her family, bringing them to one of her son's activities. This is especially helpful for our younger dog Nicko who really benefits from opportunities to socialize. It was obvious that Nicko and Nola were comfortable with Natalia and that they would enjoy staying in her home again.”
“Rebecca is the best! From the meet and greet to Gimli’s first stay, I could tell she was great. She communicated well, gave daily updates, and let me know when there were issues.”
“My dog Apollo had a great time staying with JK! He was well entertained while I was away and when my dog’s old harness broke they even had an extra one for him to use. I would let Apollo stay with them anytime!”
“Jennifer did a great job taking care of Gunner. She is very diligent in providing photos. He was exposed to lots of things that kept him busy including a cat which was a new up/close experience. We appreciate all she did and have already booked her for another time. Highly recommended her!”
“I found myself needing a dog sitter for my two dogs (1 timu terrier and one chunky chihuahua) for a 10 day stretch with only about four days notice after another sitter flaked on me. I booked Mollie and she contacted me right away to confirm discuss the details. It was very easy to set up. Drop off was very easy. She asked how frequently I wanted updates and I told her once a day is totally fine. She followed through with updates and pictures every day without me needing to ask, I could tell from her updates that they were acting like they do at home, so I had great peace of mind the whole time I was gone that they were in good hands. When I got back, pick up was likewise super easy. The dogs were happy and healthy, and the next time I need a sitter, Mollie will definitely be my first call.”
“Monica is an absolute dream! She is so calm, positive and is amazing with our two big pit mixes. We even had a meet and greet ahead of time to make sure our dogs got along with her adorable dog Mammoth. She was super responsive throughout the whole process and sent pictures, videos and updates every few hours. Highly highly recommend Monica, and are already looking forward to our pups’ next stay with her!”
“We loved Sunny! The name says it all! The friendliest sitter ever! Love her kindness. My dog is high energy and very needy and she kept up with mj (dog) Very good at updating on how the pup is doin and sending pictures is always a very good bonus! The real deal! And even watched our pup on a very important holiday (hard to find) Thank you Sunny! Much appreciated! ???”
“Victoria watched our dog Betsy for a weekend while we were out of town and everything went smoothly! Betsy was very comfortable and Victoria maintained communication daily to give us updates on her! She followed the schedule provided and took wonderfully care of Betsy!”
“Vanessa watched my Toki for me for 3 nights and she did the most amazing job! I like to keep Toki clean and she came back to me in very pristine condition. I feel so comfortable leaving Toki with Vanessa, I’ll definitely book again 🎉”
“Holly did an excellent job with our dog Ernie. We received a lot of updates throughout the day and felt very comfortable knowing he was in good hands. When we picked him up, he was full of energy and in a great mood. Would love to send him with Holly again.”
