“We couldn’t be happier with the care they provided for our girl! We were nervous about leaving her for an extended time because of her energy level, but she settled right in and had the best time. The updates and pictures they sent were incredibly reassuring and showed us just how much fun she was having. Knowing she was happy and in such good hands made our trip so much easier. We will absolutely be using them again whenever we go out of town! 🐾”

“Anastasiia is amazing! She boarded my girl for over a week while I was on a work trip. She sent tons of updates and photos, and her kids were wonderful with my pup too! I’m booking with her again next weekend! Highly recommend.”

“Hana was so kind, accommodating, and responsive! She sent videos and updates of our pup having so much fun on walks or playing with other dogs! She was super patient since our pup can be anxious but when we went to go pick her up, she looked so comfortable and happy! 10/10 recommend Hana for a reliable and caring dog sitter!”

“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.”

“Pilar was wonderful! She kept me updated when I asked about my dogs and she has a heart of gold! When I picked my dogs up they were happy! Pilar has a heart of gold! Highly recommend her!”

About: I've had dogs and cats my entire life. We currently have two rescue beagles and 5 rescued cats. I do not currently work and can be home with your animals unless running short errands, and once someone enters our home they are family and will be treated like the spoiled royalty they are. I'm happy to send updates and pictures throughout their stay as well. I do not currently work, so I have all the time in the world for your furry friend. The animals rule our house and are allowed on all furniture/beds so they will be very comfortable. I do walks in the early morning with my dogs, but could also do day time/evening walks if your pets need. We have a fenced in dog-run with 24/7 access through a 1-flap dog door. They can go in and out as they please, but the fences are only 3ft high in the dog run, so jumpers/runners might not be the best fit. We feed our dogs twice a day and cannot free-feed animals.
“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.”

“Dustin and his wife are wonderful caregivers. My doggie Blizzard has just had knee surgery and they made sure she stay quiet and calm, which is impossible to do with dogs! They gave me the peace of mind that I needed because I was very concerned about my doggie’s post/surgery recovery while not under my care . I highly recommend them!”

“Good experience. Everything went smooth, my dog came back happy and healthy. Communication was good, i received pictures of my dog along the way and i could tell that the whole family loves animals. The price was fair as well. I would book again.”

“Couldn’t ask for a better care for our Dobermans. Plenty updated and photos, dogs has lots of activities and love from Monica and her husband. Highly recommended! 🥰”

“Cristina was the best sitter I have had for Valentina! She was extremely communicative and made me feel that Valentina was safe throughout her whole stay. I had several delays to my trip and Cristina was super flexible, allowing Valentina to stay longer than expected. We appreciated this so much. Book with Cristina, she is awesome!”

“Rippley and Biscuit loved Kaitlin and Verle! I was so happy to see how relaxed my reactive and senior puppers were at a new location. The pictures they sent me of the dogs in full potato mode assured me that they felt right at home.”

“Cheryl is great with our dog. Love how she shares photos and videos of her during her stay. I almost hate to admit that she is great because I don’t want competition with booking her when we need her.”
“Autumn was absolutely outstanding with my Pups! One of them was rescued off the street 4 months ago and is very fearful around new people and places, but he had such an amazing time and didn't want to leave by the time we had to pick them up. They loved her so much that I honestly felt a little sad about taking them away from her. I feel like that just highlights how phenomenal she was. 10/5 stars!! Hope to be back next time!”

“Shilpa and her family were so sweet. They sent updates of our dog everyday with pictures. They were easy to communicate with, responsive and clear. At first our dog was shy and they were very gentle with her. When we picked her up she was so comfortable around them it seemed like she didn’t want to come home! We will definitely be rebooking with them!”
“Rachelle took in Sushi despite an urgent request. From the pictures and the day I picked him up, he seemed to have an amazing time with her! I will definitely come back to her because she’s been such an amazing dog sitter!!”

“Kaitlyn was absolutely amazing! She was really great with our cat and always provided pictures and updates. We were in a pinch and I'm so thankful for her putting us in her schedule. She is excellent with animals and very kind!”


About: Although I've never had the pleasure of owning my own cat, pretty much everyone else that I know has (which is great for me). I've spent the past couple years cat sitting for friends and enjoyed every second of it. I've grown used to playful nips and scratches just as I've learned about cat personalities. Some cats need to be by you at all times, while others don't even care that you're there - both just as fun to visit! I like adapting to each cat as I get to know them and figuring out their favorite scratching spots, their preferences on if I should pretend I'm not there, and how silly they sound when they get super vocal. I'm big on communication and will quickly and openly work with you to ensure your cat has a puuurrfect experience (sorry). Feel free to reach out with questions or concerns!
“Amber took excellent care of our senior cat. Rusty needs daily injections and Amber was able to give him this medication without any stress to him. I would recommend Amber without hesitation and will rebook in future.”

“Loren is amazing, reliable, & a pet person. My cat, who rarely comes out, was very receptive to her. Loren provided regular updates & was consistent with the times she visited my cats. I highly recommend booking with her. Thank you Loren!”

About: I'm very accustomed to all kinds of dogs! From pups to elderly dogs, small to large I'm the right guy for the job. I've raised all 3 of my dogs from puppies along with helping friends with theirs. I have tons of experience in cleaning and keeping them busy so I am more then happy to help with watching pups! I also have experience with elderly dogs that require medical treatment, as long as I get a detailed explanation on the steps to help I'll be able to follow them perfectly. I also live with very large dogs so I have all the experience with how to handle them no problem. I'm currently on summer break so I have plenty of time to look over your pets! I am very willing to work weekends, weekdays, and holidays. I have 2 very friendly dogs while my third is pretty territorial so while I can make sure your dogs are safe and acclimate them to the others, I feel it would be best to stay at your house.

“Another amazing trip because of Shelby and Dalton taking care of our fur babies. We never have to worry because they take extra care of our cats. They are so scared of everyone and they were holding our little girl before the trips end!”

“Michelle was amazing! She was super attentive and clearly cared so much about my pets. She kept me updated and sent the cutest pictures, which made me feel really comfortable while I was away. I could tell my babies were well taken care of and happy. I would definitely hire her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter :)”

“5++++++ Star!! Alexis is an amazing caregiver!! Even my shy house Panther came out to see her! Alexis sent lots of photos during every visit, played with the kitties and put my mind at ease. It's never easy to leave our babies for any extended period of time, but Alexis put me at ease!! My babies were in great hands!”


“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.”

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and have had three dogs of my own, so caring for animals has always been second nature to me. Over the years, I’ve also babysat and pet sat for family, friends, and neighbors, giving me experience with dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I’ve cared for breeds including Goldendoodles, Maltese, Poodles, labradors, Chihuahuas, French Bulldogs, and many more. One thing that sets me apart is my responsibility and dedication. I recently served as the ASB President at my high school, where I learned the importance of being dependable, organized, and someone others can count on. This fall, I’ll be attending California Lutheran University to pursue both my bachelor’s and then master’s degrees. I truly love animals and understand that every pet deserves patience, kindness, and individual attention. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply keeping a familiar routine while you’re away, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for. I would be honored to earn your trust and treat your pet like they’re one of my own. 🐾 I’m currently on summer break and in the process of preparing for my first semester at California Lutheran University, so I have a very flexible schedule. This allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to your pet. Whether your dog needs a walk, playtime, overnight care, or simply someone to keep them company, I’m happy to work around your schedule and provide reliable, attentive care. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any special instructions so they feel as comfortable as possible while you’re away. I’ll make sure they stay on their normal feeding, walking, and potty schedule, provide plenty of love and attention, and always keep a close eye on them. I’m respectful of both your home and your pet, and I’ll communicate with you throughout the visit with updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your furry family member is in good hands.

“Charlie & shanna were so amazing & so nice! They treated my puppy like their own & kept me updated with pics & texts throughout his stay. I highly recommend & will absolutely be using them again. Thanks so much guys!”

As a professional pet sitter, your pet’s needs come first on my schedule. My flexible hours mean they get consistent, focused attention, love, and care from morning to night. I care for pets in their own home, where they feel most secure and relaxed. I’ll follow their routine, provide lots of attention, and take your dog on their favorite walk or outing. I will keep them safe, happy, and comfortable while you are away, even if you’re only gone for a day or half day.

Pet care is always a part of my daily routine. I have 2 indoor cats and 2 stray cats that come everyday to eat and lay around. I can easily make time to tend to other pets I tend to other pets with love attention, make them at ease as it can be a stressful time for pets when human parents are away from home.

I am a current undergraduate at SDSU in Kinesiology so being patient and having an inclination to work with new people (or pets) is something i strive in! I go on walks daily.

“I’ve booked Loren for a few walks and a game of fetch for my dog. She has great communication and is very responsive. I appreciate her professionalism and reliability. She has shown that I can count on her. Kona has a blast! Thanks Loren!”

About: Hi there! I’ve cared for animals of all ages in households with multiple cats and dogs, also including exotic pets. I grew up with a pet husky and miniature poodle, and have experience walking dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I work in the morning/ early afternoon as a Barista ~20 hours a week. I am generally free early morning (before 8am), and afternoon-nighttime. I am off ~3 days a week (usually between Monday-Thursday) during which I can give extra time and attention to pet care. I have years of experience caring for and walking all kinds of dogs and am very attentive to the emotions and needs of each animal.
“My family and I highly recommend Alexis and Adam as dog walkers! They walked my two German Shepherd mixes early in the morning for 16 consecutive days for an hour each while we were on vacation. Always on time, always submitting report cards with photos and the route they walked. On top of that, my dogs, who are rescues with shyness or aggression toward strangers AND severe dog reactivity on walks, LOVED Lex and Adam! As a professional dog trainer and walker myself, I’m extremely careful with people who interact with my dogs, and Lex and Adam exceeded my expectations! It’s clear to me that they take caring for their clients’ dogs seriously and both are extremely nice and personable. Thank you Lex and Adam!!”

About: For the past 14 years, my world revolved around my dog, Zuri. She recently passed away, and while I’m not ready to welcome another dog into my life just yet, I realized how much I miss spending time with them. Caring for dogs has never felt like work to me. I’m naturally attentive, patient, and deeply attuned to animals. I tend to notice the little things; when a dog needs a slower pace, extra reassurance, more water, a sniff break, or simply someone calm to help them feel safe. Zuri taught me that every walk is the highlight of a dog’s day, not just another task to check off a list. Whether your dog is energetic, shy, anxious, or a senior who needs a gentler pace, I’ll care for them with the same love, presence, and respect I gave my own. I know how much trust it takes to leave your best friend in someone else’s care, and I don’t take that responsibility lightly. My goal is for you to feel completely at ease, knowing your dog is safe, understood, and genuinely loved while we’re together. I have experience caring for senior dogs, administering medications when needed, and understanding that every dog has their own personality, pace, and emotional needs. I have a flexible schedule and genuinely enjoy being active, so dog walks fit naturally into my daily routine. Walking has been an important part of my own life for years, and after losing my beloved dog of 14 years a few months ago, spending time with dogs has become something that brings me joy and healing. I’m reliable, communicative, and committed to making sure your dog gets the exercise, enrichment, and attention they deserve. I understand that trusting someone with your dog is a big decision because I know what it’s feels like to love a dog like family. I always prioritize safety by following your dog’s routine, using secure leash handling, paying close attention to their body language, and adapting to their individual personality and energy level. Whether your dog is playful, shy, anxious, or a senior who needs a slower pace, I’ll care for them with patience, kindness, and respect. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can feel confident they’re in good hands.
About: I’ve spent my whole life around pets, caring for them with love and dedication. After my own dog, Techa, passed away, I realized I still have so much love to give, even if I’m not quite ready to adopt again. That became part of my own journey with pets, and it’s why I opened my home to welcome and care for other families’ dogs. I don’t just stay home with them, I take them out, observe them closely, and tune into what they need and what makes them feel happy and safe. I have a natural intuition with dogs and pay close attention to their behavior and energy so they feel understood and comfortable. I also love sending lots of photos and videos so you can feel connected and at ease while you’re away, just like I would want for my own dog. . Be prepared for some cute photo bombing! Because I work remotely, your dog will have constant companionship, care, and lots of love throughout the day. I’m available for weekends and extended stays, and I always send daily photo and video updates for peace of mind. I have a fenced yard with a small garden, and there are no other animals in the house, so your pet will receive my full attention. I believe animals need daily outings to stay healthy and happy, so I offer at least two walks a day, either short or long depending on their needs. Playtime and affection are also essential parts of my care routine. If I care for your pet at their home, I make sure to follow their regular routine, so they feel comfortable and secure in their own environment. I also send daily photos and videos to owners so they can relax knowing their furry family member is safe, happy, and well cared for
About: My whole life I’ve grown up with pets: cats, dogs, birds, and reptiles! I have so much passion for treating animals kindly and my family has always relied on me to take care of our pets :) I’ve walked multiple dogs through Rover ranging from a small chihuahua to a large doberman. I’m currently a college student and I also coach gymnastics! I’m available in the mornings 9am-1pm all days of the week! Weekends I have more flexibility :) While in your home, I will always remember to be very respectful and considerate of your space/environment and cater towards any specific care needs for your pets.
About: I am a dog-mom who loves caring for pets like they’re my own. I focus on keeping them comfortable, safe, and sticking to their normal routine. I also have experience with senior dogs and can give supplements or medications when needed. Additionally, I have experience with puppies too since I raised my fur baby since she was only 8 weeks old. I work part time, so I have several days off during the week to focus on pet care. I enjoy making animals part of my daily routine and giving them the time, attention, and care they deserve. Safety and comfort are important to me. I live in a condo with a balcony, so pets get regular supervised walks since there’s no yard. I do have a baby at home, so I’m very mindful about keeping the environment gentle, clean, and well supervised. In a client’s home, I follow your routine and make sure your pet feels safe and cared for.

“We couldn’t be happier with the care they provided for our girl! We were nervous about leaving her for an extended time because of her energy level, but she settled right in and had the best time. The updates and pictures they sent were incredibly reassuring and showed us just how much fun she was having. Knowing she was happy and in such good hands made our trip so much easier. We will absolutely be using them again whenever we go out of town! 🐾”

She was super patient since our pup can be anxious but when we went to go pick her up, she looked so comfortable and happy! 10/10 recommend Hana for a reliable and caring dog sitter!”

“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.”

About: I've had dogs and cats my entire life. We currently have two rescue beagles and 5 rescued cats. I do not currently work and can be home with your animals unless running short errands, and once someone enters our home they are family and will be treated like the spoiled royalty they are. I'm happy to send updates and pictures throughout their stay as well. I do not currently work, so I have all the time in the world for your furry friend. The animals rule our house and are allowed on all furniture/beds so they will be very comfortable. I do walks in the early morning with my dogs, but could also do day time/evening walks if your pets need. We have a fenced in dog-run with 24/7 access through a 1-flap dog door. They can go in and out as they please, but the fences are only 3ft high in the dog run, so jumpers/runners might not be the best fit. We feed our dogs twice a day and cannot free-feed animals.

“Good experience. Everything went smooth, my dog came back happy and healthy. Communication was good, i received pictures of my dog along the way and i could tell that the whole family loves animals. The price was fair as well. I would book again.”

“Couldn’t ask for a better care for our Dobermans. Plenty updated and photos, dogs has lots of activities and love from Monica and her husband. Highly recommended! 🥰”

“Rippley and Biscuit loved Kaitlin and Verle! I was so happy to see how relaxed my reactive and senior puppers were at a new location. The pictures they sent me of the dogs in full potato mode assured me that they felt right at home.”

“Autumn was absolutely outstanding with my Pups! One of them was rescued off the street 4 months ago and is very fearful around new people and places, but he had such an amazing time and didn't want to leave by the time we had to pick them up. They loved her so much that I honestly felt a little sad about taking them away from her. I feel like that just highlights how phenomenal she was. 10/5 stars!! Hope to be back next time!”

“Rachelle took in Sushi despite an urgent request. From the pictures and the day I picked him up, he seemed to have an amazing time with her! I will definitely come back to her because she’s been such an amazing dog sitter!!”

“I can't thank Mihaela enough for taking such great care of our dog. She was a great communicator and sent a lot of photos while he was in her care. She was also so kind and understanding when my flight was delayed and I had to pick him up later. Would love to have her watch our dog again. Thank you!”

“Cerita and her family was absolutely phenomenal watching Cyrus. We had a sudden and heartbreaking family emergency—a reunion that ended in tragedy, which required a trip to the emergency room where my cell phone was stolen, leaving me with no immediate way to communicate with Cerita, and we even got a flat tire on the way home—and Cerita was a pillar of support and kindness throughout it all. She was incredibly understanding, flexible, and communicative, which took a huge weight off our shoulders during a time of great stress and grief. She took wonderful care of Cyrus and provided constant, reassuring updates. We are so grateful for her compassion and highly recommend her to anyone needing a reliable and truly caring sitter. Thank you again from the bottom of our hearts Cerita 🙏 ❤️ We are so grateful for you and appreciate you more then words could ever express 🌺”
“Amazing! Janet took great care of my Stanley over the Christmas holiday ❤️ Was able to extend his visit for one more day after my flight was canceled last minute coming home so I really appreciate all the communication and photos! Thank you again! Will definitely re-book with Janet!”

“Susie and Galen did is awesome job watching our two pups. We were gonna for almost three weeks and we knew the entire time they were well cared for. Highly recommend them to watch your fur babies”


“Our favorite dog sitters! They take great care of our senior dog in their calm, dog-friendly home. They really pay attention to her and send daily updates.”

“We couldn't be happier with the care Genevieve provided for our pup! From the moment we dropped him off, we felt completely at ease, knowing he was in the most capable and loving hands. She was very communicative and sent a lot of updates with pictures. It was clear she treated him like her own. We were especially delighted to see that her dogs and our pup became the best of friends, which made his stay even more enjoyable and enriching. We are already so excited to bring him back for his next stay!”
