Not only did she followed all the care instructions for our pup, she went the extra miles to make Muncie feel loved and spoiled - taking her on social outings and hikes to keep her entertained! She sent us daily photos and detailed updates, which gave us such peace of mind during those 7 nights we were away. Our dog felt right at home with Eunice. She is definitely our go-to sitter from now on! Thank you, Eunice, for taking such great care of Muncie!”

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!”

“Vanessa is wonderful to work with. This is our second time working with her and my babies LOVE her. Always on time and sent lots of pictures :)) we appreciate her help so much!!”
“Been meaning to do this review for a while, but 2020 went a bit crazy after our Feb. trip. Patricia was an absolute joy to work with. Not only was she friendly, she was also very knowledgeable about cats and had some great tips for our tortie lady that really helped (flowing water, help with fast eating/throwing up cat, etc). Loved the cat pictures for the updates/reviews and appreciate the dependability and overall friendliness. When we're able to travel again, we'll definitely be rebooking :)”

I have handled deaf dogs- using sign language for commands, bells on door handles for dogs to signal outside time and understanding quiet, calm environments for senior dogs. I currently have no dogs in the house and I miss it so much! I’m excited to help your family any way I can. I’m a stay at home mom with one 9 year old boy who shares in my love for dogs. My child will be at school during the school year. My days are flexible to accommodate your needs. I’m happy to send photos/videos of your fur baby as often as you’d like! I have a small outdoor patio that is partly shaded for those dogs who love a good sun- bathing. Out front there is some grass and I have a leash attached to large tree if they prefer grass time.

About: What sets me apart is that I’ve had animals my entire life and currently care for two dogs (ages 3 and 10) and a cat (age 7). I’ve had my pets since they were puppies and a kitten, so I’m very familiar with caring for animals at every stage of life — from young and active to senior pets who need extra attention and patience. I have hands-on experience administering medications, including giving pills and applying daily eye drops for senior dogs. I understand how important it is to be gentle, patient, and consistent when caring for pets with specific needs. In addition to caring for my own pets, I regularly help friends and neighbors by checking in on their dogs and cats, so I’m comfortable adapting to new environments, routines, and personalities.

I currently have open availability and can accommodate visits throughout the day. Once my work schedule begins, I’ll update my availability weekly and remain available for early mornings and evenings.

I do my best to stay flexible and adjust to your pet’s routine whenever possible. For cats, I’m happy to check in as often as needed to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I’m very mindful of weather and safety — I avoid walking dogs during high heat and always adjust timing to keep them safe and happy. You can count on consistent, dependable care and regular updates so you always know your pet is in good hands 🤍 In my home, I provide a safe, calm, and comfortable environment. I live in a clean two-bedroom apartment, and visiting pets stay in the main living area where I can keep a close eye on them at all times. I have multiple cozy beds and can provide crates if needed for smaller dogs or for pets who are crate-trained. I also have two friendly dogs — one who loves to play and one who is more relaxed — so I’m able to match different energy levels depending on your dog’s personality. I always prioritize safe introductions and make sure every pet feels comfortable. I focus on keeping pets active, engaged, and happy through walks, playtime, and mental stimulation using toys or activities you provide. I also make sure to follow your pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, preferred walking times, and any special instructions. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect your space and maintain your pet’s normal routine to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I make sure they receive plenty of attention, care, and supervision. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priority, and I treat every pet like my own.

“BOOK WITH JEANNE!! Jeanne was absolutely amazing with our pups, Louis and Arlo! She went above and beyond to keep them happy with all kinds of enrichment toys, plenty of walks, and tons of playtime with her and her other doggies. When we picked them up, they were totally tuckered out, which was perfect since we were exhausted from the Disney parks! She lives near the parks which is super convenient—only minutes from most hotels near the parks, which made drop-off and pick-up so easy. Jeanne kept us in the loop the whole time with great updates and lots of photos/videos! The care she gave was top-notch. Thank you so much, Jeanne, for taking such amazing care of our babies!”
“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.”

About: I have grown up with animals all of my life. With busy working parents, I was often the one doing most of the animal care. I grew up with 2 large German Shepherds and 2 cats, so I am familiar with handling large breeds and taking care of multiple animals at once. I am a huge animal lover and have always been a natural pet caregiver. The well-being of animals is my top priority. I am currently working remotely and so I will be home and available to take care of your pets. I am also completely available on the weekends. I love to be outside and walking!

“Allie and her husband were reliable, punctual, and followed all instructions carefully. Most importantly, my dogs had a great time playing with them at the dog park. I felt very comfortable trusting them with my dogs.”
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.

About: I really treat every dog like they’re my own — because I know what that love feels like. I have a dog named Ace who’s been with me for five years, and caring for him has taught me patience and trust is. I focus on making each visit calm, positive, and reliable so your pup actually looks forward to seeing me. I have experience training puppies, so I’m gentle and consistent while helping them build good habits. I also understand the extra care seniors need — slower walks, comfort, mobility support, and keeping an eye on medications and routines. My goal is simple: keep your dog safe, happy, and loved while you’re away, also keep you updated. I have lots of treats if allowed. FIRST TIME DISCOUNTS AVAILABLE My schedule is an open book. I do work part time so I do have plenty of time to respond and make due. Please feel free to message me anytime. I will respond as soon as possible. I provide attentive care tailored to each pet’s routine and personality. In my home or a client’s home, I follow feeding schedules, refresh water, clean litter boxes, administer basic medications if needed, and ensure a safe environment. I also prioritize playtime at the dog park or ate home, affection, and regular check-ins to keep pets comfortable. I have a fenced in yard and kennels if needed.
About: I’ve cared for pets of all kinds for several years, including dogs, cats, and small animals. My experience includes feeding, walking, administering basic care, and maintaining consistent routines. I’m comfortable with pets of all sizes, temperaments, and energy levels, and I always focus on creating a calm, safe, and positive environment for them. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate consistent time and attention to pet care throughout the week. I’m available for daily visits, walks, and boarding, including weekends and evenings. I prioritize reliability and make sure each pet gets the time, exercise, and care they need based on their routine. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I maintain a clean, secure, and calm environment, and I always follow any specific instructions you provide. I’m attentive to behavior, feeding schedules, and routines to ensure consistency. Whether in my home or yours, I treat every pet like family and make sure they feel safe, supervised, and well cared for at all times.
About: I have grown up with small and big dogs, so I feel comfortable with all breeds. I have spent years volunteering at a shelter socializing and training dogs. I own a Doberman which has required me to become a skilled handler. Training and exercise are very important to me for dogs to receive, I strive to fulfill their needs! I am more than happy to provide training and socialization for your pup by taking them to public places (that allow dogs) after exercising them! Availability: I have the most availability in the afternoons, after 1 pm, but I am more than happy to try and accommodate! Working early mornings allows me to have the rest of the day to devote to the dogs I am caring for. I am an active person so daily long walks, adventures, and time outside is important to me I only take on the responsibility of one dog at a time to ensure that they get my full attention and care. It is important to me that they are prioritized and enriched from their activities with me
“Mark was nothing short of amazing. From communication to effort to just his love for our dog Bubbles. Bubbles is a large dog and can be a handful and Mark was patient, caring and we had complete trust in him and his abilities. We 100% recommend and will use his services again in the future.”
About: I’m a part time city employee who’s lookin to take care of some buddies for an extra income. Just graduated from San Francisco State University and couldn’t think of a more enjoyable way to earn some extra cash. Have 5 years of personal experience with pets of my own. I have a flexible schedule as I choose my own days to work so I can easily adjust to anybody’s schedule. I can do overnight sitting for multiple days as well. Really love dogs and cats and can assure you they will be well taken care of. Don’t own any food of my own so it will have to be provided beforehand. Usually take them out every 30min-1 hour so they’ll be in good hands forsure.

“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.

“Eunice was absolutely amazing! She exceeded all of our expectations with her thorough communications and level of care provided to our beloved Corgi. Not only did she followed all the care instructions for our pup, she went the extra miles to make Muncie feel loved and spoiled - taking her on social outings and hikes to keep her entertained! She sent us daily photos and detailed updates, which gave us such peace of mind during those 7 nights we were away. Our dog felt right at home with Eunice. She is definitely our go-to sitter from now on! Thank you, Eunice, for taking such great care of Muncie!”

About: Hi, I’m Emily! We are a loving family of four, my husband, our 10-year-old son, myself, and our very active 13-month-old Shiba Inu, Nala. As dog owners ourselves, we know firsthand how stressful it can be to find someone you truly trust to care for your dog while you’re away. After recently searching for a sitter for Nala, I realized how important it is to find someone who will care for your dog like family, because that’s exactly what they are. My goal is to provide you with peace of mind, knowing your dog will be safe, loved, and cared for in our home as if they were my own. After spending 25+ years in the telecom industry, I am now a stay-at-home mom, which gives me the time and flexibility to provide attentive, personalized care for the pets I welcome into our home. Your furry family member will receive plenty of attention, companionship, supervision, and love throughout the day, with their safety, comfort, and happiness always being my top priorities. We are located in a quiet, safe neighborhood in Irvine with several nearby parks and walking trails. Nala enjoys four walks a day, and I am happy to provide the same level of activity for your pup based on their needs, energy level, and routine. We also have a spacious home with a secure, fenced grassy backyard that offers both sunny and shaded areas for dogs to relax, explore, bird watch, or simply enjoy outdoor time. I understand every dog has different routines and comfort levels, so I do my best to make their stay feel as close to home as possible. Nala sleeps in a crate at night, but I am happy to accommodate your dog’s normal sleeping arrangements, whether that’s a crate, dog bed, or out in the open. We treat pets like family in our home, so dogs are welcome on the couch, bed, and in the spaces they’re used to enjoying if that aligns with your preferences and home rules. I am also happy to follow your dog’s specific care routine, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise needs, sleep preferences, and any special instructions that help them feel comfortable and secure. I know being away from your pup can be hard, so I’m happy to send regular photo and update check-ins to help you feel connected and reassured while you’re away. To ensure personalized attention and a calm environment, I only host one guest dog at a time, so your pup receives lots of one-on-one love and care while staying with us. I do ask that dogs are comfortable around children and other dogs, and are reasonably house-trained and comfortable spending short periods indoors when needed. I want you to feel completely comfortable leaving your furry family member in my care, and I am happy to answer any questions you may have before booking. I look forward to welcoming your pup into our home and treating them like part of the family!
“Bridget was absolutely incredible with our boy! She and her family were so kind and caring, and updated us with lots of photos and videos. Our dog unexpectedly fell sick, and she not only immediately notified us, but took him to the emergency vet within minutes. She felt comfortable caring for him at home and he recovered well with her. Our dog became part of the family with her, and we would not hesitate to ask Bridget to watch him again in the future. She is an absolute gem!”
“I have to admit I was having a bit of anxiety leaving our little girl for the first time, but it was very clear she was in excellent hands with Sunny. We received daily pictures and updates of Poppy which definitely reduced my anxiety. Poppy stayed with Sunny for ten days and we most definitely will use Sunny again for any of our vacation needs. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you Sunny! The Wrights”
About: I have been a “Dog Mom” for over 20 years. Often having multiple dogs of different sizes and breeds. I have handled deaf dogs- using sign language for commands, bells on door handles for dogs to signal outside time and understanding quiet, calm environments for senior dogs. I currently have no dogs in the house and I miss it so much! I’m excited to help your family any way I can. I’m a stay at home mom with one 9 year old boy who shares in my love for dogs. My child will be at school during the school year. My days are flexible to accommodate your needs. I’m happy to send photos/videos of your fur baby as often as you’d like! I have a small outdoor patio that is partly shaded for those dogs who love a good sun- bathing. Out front there is some grass and I have a leash attached to large tree if they prefer grass time. (I will be outside with them the entire time) I can accommodate crate training at night or snuggle with them in my king size bed! We are an A/C controlled home!!
About: I’ve loved dogs my whole life and truly enjoy caring for them. Whether it’s playing with an energetic puppy, taking a high-energy dog for a run, or going for a slow, gentle walk with a senior dog, I always adapt to their needs. I feel fortunate to be on Rover, as my flexible hybrid job allows me to dedicate quality time to each pet. My goal is to make every pup feel happy, loved, and completely at ease. Pet care fits into my routine by allowing flexibility around my remote work schedule. On the days I work remotely, I can easily accommodate midday check-ins, walks, or runs for dogs. On weekends, I’m fully available for longer walks, playtime, or extended check-ins, ensuring pets get the attention and exercise they need. As a dog walker and provider of at-home check-ins, I ensure that dogs get regular exercise, bathroom breaks, and playtime according to their individual needs. During check-ins, I make sure they have fresh water, a clean living space, and monitor their well-being. I also send updates to their owners to keep them informed and reassured.
