“Susan is an absolute incredible person. She loves what she does and you can see that. Our little Buffy loves to be with Susan. I’m so glad we met you and we will continue to come back ❤️”
“This was my first time using Rover for my big boy German Shepherd. Tiantian was awesome the whole way through. My boy was very nervous and anxious staying at another home especially without me and Tiantian was incredibly patient and understanding. She sent daily pictures which I was also grateful for. I highly recommend Tiantian to watch your dog. She was outstanding.”
“Silvana thank you for taking care & loving of our Kasper & Kassie. My 2 furbabies enjoyed their stayed in your house, loved the pictures and we see that our dogs made a lot of friends with the other dogs during their playtime. Silvana was so professional and knowledgeable in caring dogs. And surely will recommend her 100%. John&KrisG”
“Andrew and Karrie are wonderful hosts. My dog was well taken care of, and they were open to communicating with us while our dog was under their care. I recommend them without hesitation and will use them again.”
“My chunky boy, Titan had a great time with Ori. He stayed with her for 3days. She was giving me updates and sending me pictures of my boy. She made sure that my Titan was in good hands. Will definitely bring him back. I picked him up today and he is dogged out. He had so much fun with his pawfriends. Highly recommended.”
“Stephanie and Jennifer take such great care of my girls!! This was their second stay with them.! Pictures flow freely and they are very communicative. I have 100% confidence in booking another event with these ladies.”
“Jody is so sweet and took such good care of Koda. He got lots of love from her and her family. When we picked him up he seemed like he didn’t even want to go home, he was enjoying it so much. She even washed his doggie bed.♥️ Jody’s location is perfect for us since we need to pass her house on the way to the airport. We will definitely choose Jody again to take care of our Koda.”
“Ocean had such a great stay while I was away! I got tons of videos, photos, and updates throughout my trip, and she looked so happy and comfortable the entire time. She ate well, slept well, and clearly had an absolute blast. She came home completely exhausted from all the fun, which is always a great sign! It gave me so much peace of mind knowing she was happy and well taken care of while I was gone. Would absolutely recommend!”
“Alice was wonderful to work with! She took great care of everything and kept me updated throughout the entire time. She regularly sent photos and updates, which gave me peace of mind and showed how thoughtful and caring she is. She was kind, reliable, and easy to communicate with. I highly recommend Alice and would definitely work with her again!”
“Dana is fantastic. My wife and I are a first time rover users, who were in a pinch and had to travel across the country at the last minute. Dana was able to accommodate us and looked after our best pal Blanche for 6 nights. While we were gone, Blanche made some new four legged friends and received exceptional care--Dana was so kind as to send multiple photo and video updates each day we were gone (which my wife LOVED). I'm hoping to switch Blanche over for Doggy Day Care once we run out of days at our current spot. I highly recommend Dana--leaving Blanche with her gave us peace of mind, which isn't always easy to find.”
“We have a dog that is our whole world and we were in need of help boarding our “fur baby” for a trip we couldn’t reschedule, after we removed her from an established boarding facility when our dog suffered a brutal attack by another dog. We were petrified to leave our dog, with anyone ever again, but knew we would have to. So research began, prayers went up and then we came across Rover. After more research on sitters with Rover we came across Elaine’s and Marty’s bio. So we reached out to Elaine and Marty who seemed like a great fit for our needs. Wow! Elaine and Marty respond instantly. They were willing to have us come to their home for a meet and greet with our sweet Kaylee and we talked with them for over an hour and saw where she would stay so we could make sure the environment was safe and appropriate for her. We were still nervous, as this couple were strangers to us, but decided to take the leap to trust that they would care for our girl like she was their own. Let’s just say our dog is spoiled by us, and lacked nothing with them. We especially love that they are clearly animal lovers and that they board one dog at a time. Because we were a late board, in regard to our trip, they were still willing to take her as long as we were ok with a 24 hour overlap with another client’s little, social dog. Ours is super social too and we all (both dog’s owners and, sitter) agreed to this arrangement. When we returned to Elaine’s and Marty’s home to drop off Kaylee, as soon as they opened their door Kaylee pranced right in like she owned the place, tail wagging, and very comfortable to see her new friends again. She was so well taken care of! Elaine and Marty gave us daily updates with pictures and videos which made us so happy and helped us relax while we were away. Elaine and Marty exceeded all of our expectations! They even gave us a framed photo with two pictures of Kaylee as a thank you for letting her stay with them. We couldn’t be more pleased, have already confirmed another booking and have asked about a third. This couple is so gracious, so kind and loving, so trustworthy and thoughtful we couldn’t recommend them more highly! They were a Godsend to us and we look forward to working with them exclusively as long as they are willing and available to help us in the future. Very satisfied and happy clients, Clark & Ruth F.”
“We highly recommend Cedric. He and his family took exceptional care of our dog while we were out of the country. He kept us updated and it was evident our dog was very happy and comfortable in Cedric's home. We look forward to rebooking with Cedric for our next trip. Cedric and his family are wonderful.”
“Excellent first booking with Kevin! Our pup was well loved and photos sent during our travels were much appreciated. Our dog came home very happy and exhausted from his fun stay. Communication with Kevin was very responsive and he runs a super reliable boarder! Thank you so much, Kevin! We look forward to booking with you soon!”
“Sheena was outstanding! Very communicative and took great care of our dog. Loved all of the photos she sent along the way. We felt very comfortable with her and our dog was happy when we arrived. If we need a sitter again, I will definitely see if she is available.”
“We were visiting Las Vegas and needed last‑minute care for our two elderly dogs, and Diane truly went above and beyond. Not only did she welcome both of our girls on short notice, she cared for them for four days during a week of extreme heat — something they wouldn’t have tolerated safely. This was our first time using Rover, and Diane made the entire experience feel easy and reassuring. She was wonderfully communicative from start to finish, sending updates and photos throughout their stay. One of our girls, Sherry, had an upset stomach, and Diane was so attentive and comforting, letting us know she was keeping a close eye on her. Her kindness allowed us to actually relax and enjoy our trip, knowing our dogs were in safe, loving hands. We are incredibly grateful for her care and hope to use her babysitting services again. Diane is truly a gem, and we can’t thank her enough.”
“Patricia was absolutely amazing, not only taking care of our dog, but stopping by our house to check in on our cat to make sure she was alright. I wouldn't hesitate recommending Patricia to anyone looking for a reliable petsitter.”
“Our two dogs (small, Japanese Chin, one elderly) love visiting Nicole, and start getting excited on the drive there. She takes wonderful care of them, and I will always recommend her to others.”

“Stacy was absolutely wonderful with our two cats, giving them lots of care and attention while we were away. She kept us updated with photos and messages, which gave us complete peace of mind. We’re so happy to have found her and will gladly use her again in the future.”
“Sara is amazing and took great care of our cat while we were on vacation. I usually feel a lot of anxiety when we leave for long periods of time, but her frequent updates and communication really put me at ease. She is very trustworthy and caring, and we will most definitely book her again in the future! :)”
“Heather is absolutely great with cats. She did a great job taking care of Boris. I left for 5 days, and he wasn't at all stressed out when I got home. Heather is great at communication. I would definitely book her again.”
“Audrey was wonderful! Our two girls were happy to see us and not at all traumatized by our ten days away. We highly recommend Audrey and will definitely be asking for her again”
“Leaving our cats alone for the first time in a new home was stressful and Alexandra took care of everything! The cats loved her, she kept us informed and provided pictures and also took care of several packages that were left wile we were gone. I can definitely recommend Alexandra and will be using her again.”
“Meghan was absolutely amazing. She was patient with our shy kitties, great at communicating, and stopped by when we needed her on very short notice. She left a delightful card for us when we got back home. I will reach out to Meghan first if we ever need someone to watch our fur babies!”
“Lexy was around to watch my cats on super short notice and through the Thanksgiving holiday. She did a phenomenal job like always and I will definitely be reaching out to her again! She's communicative, attentive and very loving towards the animals!”
“Victoria did a great job taking care of our two cats, including our energetic 5 month old kitten who requires a lot of attention and play time. Our other cat is very shy, and Victoria was able to get her to come out and receive some TLC too. We felt very comfortable while we were on vacation knowing our kitties were being well taken care of!”
“We are so glad Tracey was available to take care of our pups while we were visiting Simi Valley and had a day at the Reagan Library planned without them. Tracey quickly figured out our dogs' favorite activities (the old one is a cuddler and the youngster is fetching obsessed). She was also great with us people providing prompt communication, darling photos, and showing up dependably. Definitely recommend her!”
“Thanks once again for taking the stress out of my work trip. I so much appreciate the level of care and concern given to my pets, especially the new kitten with tons of energy and a huge appetite. Took care of all the little details like washing the bowls and scooping the poop. You are now my go-to trusted pet caregiver.”
About: I have taken care of my dog since she was 7weeks and she is now 5 about to turn 6 years old, I enjoy taking her on walks and playing with her. I am only working part time right now so I have lots of open time, also my school schedule is easy so I have extra time My household takes very good care of our pets, with healthy food and good sleep. We also give our dog the exercise our dog that is needed.
“My rescue dog struggles with trusting people and when I contacted Emily about it she was so nice and gentle about her approach to meeting Shae. Ever since the meet and greet she was patient and loving and my dog ended up warming up to her in just a couple of visits. It is really hard to find someone who is truly caring and understanding of fearful dogs. She was also very accommodating to our needs, Thank you, Emily!”
“Ellie took great care of my two cats! I highly recommend booking with her, she was very caring and attentive. And during her visits she took some cute photos of them too, which I really appreciated so I could still see them while I was away.”
About: 🥰 Now retired from Corporate America- I finally get to do what I love!! If you’re looking for Quality, Responsible and Experienced care for your pets- look no further! I have 45+ years experience with dogs, cats and horses. 🐴 🐈 🐶 Prior Volunteer @Agoura Animal Shelter I’ve been in love with pets since I was born. I’ve had many dogs over the years. I was raised with Dobermans, and had 2 of my own as an adult, in addition to a German Shepherd, Husky, Lab mix, 2 Min Pins and now, a Terrier/mix rescued from the meat trade in So. Korea. I’ve had one or more cats at a time since the day I was born (feral), and at one point, we rescued a pregnant kitty that had 4 kittens, which we kept and all lived long and cherished lives. My last kitty, “Little Girl”, was found by the grooms at the barn @ 3 weeks old. She was so wild, that she chewed the nipple off the bottle, and the Vet said it would never work! She recently passed at 19 years old, from CKD/Hyperthyroidism, which we both valiantly fought for 4 yrs. She was my soul cat- that I will miss for the rest of my life.💔 I’m an Equestrian- Horses are my passion! I’ve competed and owned horses for over 30 years, and have extensive knowledge of their care. I’m Insured and Pet 1st Aid/CPR Certified. I have experience medicating pets (ie:cats with Hyperthyroidism/CKD, etc dogs with pancreatitis, etc). Specialize in Senior pets. I know what it’s like to have to leave your beloved fur-babies home, especially if they aren’t feeling well! Whether they’re in tip top health, or in need of a little extra attention due to a medical condition, You can rest assured, that they will have the best care! I’m home full time now, and so available to meet the commitment and responsibilities of caring for your special fur-babies. Because feeding/walking and playing take time and attention- and every pet has its own unique and individual needs, sometimes they just need a little extra love and companionship❤️ Safety is my #1 priority! I will always ensure that your pets are safe, your home is secure and there is nothing within reach that could cause them harm. Additionally, walks are always done considering the environment, other pets and their proximity to your pet and the demeanor of both. No risks are ever taken.
About: My first animal was a cat at 4years old and I’ve owned them ever since. As a disclaimer, I also have 2 dogs currently and my dogs and cat are free to roam our house. I also have a small “doggie door” the leads from the kitchen and into the garage where my cat normally likes to hang out to have her own “kitty kingdom”, which I. Life’s cat trees, tunnels, and cratch posts, and my cat loves her kitty friends ❤️😻
“As usual, Daniel took great care of our cats while we were traveling, even going into our home which was under evacuation warning from nearby fires offering to do what was needed to make sure our pets were safe. Can’t say enough great things about his dedication and care.”
“Helen is fantastic! I went away for the weekend, and left my cats for the first time since I got them. I needed to find someone trustworthy, reliable and experienced to stay at my home. I saw Helen’s profile and I reached out. Helen responded right away and we set up a meet and greet. She has this positive energy that my cats could sense immediately. So we booked it. Helen’s communication was consistent and comforting. She sent pictures and videos throughout the weekend, which allowed me to focus on my time away and not worry about my boys. It was also a great way for her to show me that she was putting in the time and effort to give attention to them, and stimulate them. She not only took care of the cats, but she also had an amazing respect for my home and my things. Helen was always on-time and prepared. When I returned, it was obvious that my boys were sad to see her go. I’m pretty sure they like her more than they like me. ? I recommend Helen to anyone, and everyone! She gets 10 stars from me.”
“Jessica did a great job! This was my 2nd time using her. We had a last minute emergency and she was able to step in and take care of our kitty immediately. Will definitely book again!”
“Samantha is amazing! She was very patient and caring with my cat in gaining his trust. She sent prompt updates and photos on how he was doing along with updates on what his temperament was like each day. I would definitely request her services again when I am out of town.”

“Andrew and Karrie were so great with meeting Harley for the first time. The meet and greet went well. Then he did doggie daycare and seemed to really like them. Thank you!!”
“Ayni & Alfonsus are incredible! My little Ocean gets excited when I drop her off. Shes also older/tripled and they take excellent care of her with plenty of updates via text, photo, video. Glad I found them! Highly recommend.”
“Alexandra provided a positive and easy dog-sitting experience overall. Everything went smoothly from start to finish, and communication was clear when needed. She sent an update with a photo when I asked, which I appreciated. She’s reliable and flexible with scheduling, which made everything stress-free. Overall, I’d recommend Alexandra to anyone looking for a dependable dog sitter.”
“Susan was great with Nala. We could tell that she's very experienced with animals, which gave us peace of mind in leaving Nala under her care. She was flexible with her daycare hours, and easy to communicate with. Nala came home exhausted from a full day of fun and play. Definitely recommend!”
“Alice accepted our last minute booking and adjusted her schedule to accommodate our request. She took great care of our puppy and gave helpful tips on behavior training. Highly recommended.”
“Rachel was the best! We went to a theme park for the day and got the best care for our two dogs. She was easy to communicate with and very flexible with our schedule. Our anxious dog didn’t phase her, and our playful dog loved playing with her dogs so much.”
“Turkey really enjoyed his time with Ori. She has a really nice yard with toys readily available. Turkey usually has a bit of anxiety when I am about to leave him with a sitter but Ori called his named and he ran with her towards the backyard. Seeing him happy made me feel at ease. She took him on several walks which he loves. I will definitely use Ori again.”
About: I have been caring for pets for decades and understand how important it is to know your dog is safe, comfortable, and genuinely loved while you are away. I care for only one visiting dog at a time in my home, which allows me to provide highly personalized and attentive care for your small to mid-sized dog. I work from home, so dogs are rarely left alone and typically only for up to 90 minutes if I attend a yoga class or run a quick errand. I also have experience caring for senior dogs and administering medication. I am patient, observant, and happy to follow your dog’s established routines so they feel as relaxed and secure as possible. My apartment community feels like a small park, with plenty of grassy areas for walks and exploration. We are also about a mile from Triunfo Canyon Park, which we visit often when the weather permits. My own dog, Chadwick, is a calm and friendly Chihuahua who enjoys sharing his home and cozy resting spots with visiting friends. My goal is to give your dog a peaceful, loving home-away-from-home experience with plenty of companionship, attention, and affection. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I work from home and already plan my days around caring for my own small dog, Chadwick. I am home most of the day and can provide regular walks, meals, playtime, companionship, and plenty of opportunities to relax. Dogs are typically never left alone for more than about 90 minutes if I attend a yoga class or run a quick errand. I also keep my schedule flexible while hosting a dog so I can follow their usual feeding, medication, walking, and bedtime routines as closely as possible. I live alone in a first-floor apartment and take full responsibility for every pet in my care. Because I welcome only one visiting dog at a time, I am able to give them close supervision and personalized attention throughout their stay. My apartment has a balcony with comfortable outdoor seating where the dogs and I can relax together. Dogs are never allowed on the balcony or outside unattended, and I always accompany them when entering or leaving the apartment. Just outside my door are grassy hills, walking paths, and plenty of areas to explore throughout my apartment community. I keep dogs safely leashed outdoors and follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding, walks, medication, sleeping arrangements, and household routines. My goal is to provide a calm, secure, and loving environment where your dog can feel comfortable and cared for while you are away.
About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs and cats my entire life and have always considered my pets part of the family. When your pet stays with me, they’ll receive the same love, attention, and care that I give my own fur babies. I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes—I have a 12-pound Chiweenie and a 180 pound Great Dane—and understand that every pet has their own unique personality, comfort level, and routine. Whether your pet loves playtime, cuddles, quiet companionship, or a little extra patience while adjusting to a new environment, I’m happy to accommodate their needs. I also have a cat who enjoys having her own space and is comfortable around dogs. Our home is calm, friendly, and welcoming to both canine and feline guests. Your pet will enjoy a safe, spacious home with a secure concrete backyard and plenty of room to relax, play, and explore. My goal is to make every stay as comfortable and stress-free as possible so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member! 🐶😻 I work from home and am around all day to let the dogs into the backyard, as well as attend to any car needs they may have! I take serious consideration into the safety and care of the animals in my home! I have extra rooms with nice windows and ventilation in case your animal needs privacy and am around all day to allow them in and outside as you see fit!
“Everything was great! We booked Phil and Lauren to watch Penny for a few hours. They were super flexible with the drop off time. Penny loves staying with them!”
About: I have been a dog owner ever since I was a kid. I have experience boarding, walking training with dogs all shapes and sizes. I believe in never hitting a dog or showing any aggression and have had success with positive reinforcement. I am retired and have an open schedule that provides availability Sunday through Saturday, seven days a week, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. I am extremely patient and do not believe in hitting dogs or showing any aggression towards them. Positive reinforcement has always been my approach and the secret to success with training, boarding, and walking animals.
“Elaine and Marty have given me peace of mind while traveling for work or pleasure. I know Zoey is home away from home with her daily routine and the love she receives. I am guilt free leaving here there and words cannot express my gratitude to Elaine and Marty.”
“Christopher was wonderful with our boy. When it was time to come home, instead of being ready to leave he rolled over for a belly rub. My doggie is happy and so are we. Thank you so much.”
“Thanks to Kareen and her lovely daughters; my 4 puppy’s first time in day care was awesome. Kareen and her daughters kept her occupied and gave her lots of attention. Would definitely use Kareen again!”
“Ashley was very communicative and sent updates throughout Millie’s stay with her which made us feel very comfortable. She knew very well how to read her body language and did a great job getting her to be comfortable around other dogs.”
“As always, peanut had an excellent time. They did a great job with dealing with her lower energy level today and gave her the space and alone time she needed.”
“We are happy to have found Shelli to care for our senior dog Harold. Shelli was very patient and kind with him when we left him for his first visit. He seemed very calm and happy when we picked him up. We feel confident that Harold will be well cared for by Shelli and her family when we leave him to go out of town .”
About: I’ve been a pet owner for 25 years. I use to be a zookeeper for 8 years and have worked with exotic animals for over 10. I have basic training skills and am good with large dogs. I am currently working part time and have most days free and evenings as well. Local neighborhood walks or pick ups would be ideal, but not necessary. I currently do not have any other pets. I do have a fenced in back yard and live in a house. Bathroom breaks can happen frequently when boarding.

“I couldn’t be happier with Perry as our dog walker! I have two large, energetic Doberman mixes, and Perry has been incredible with them. From our initial meet-and-greet, his calm confidence put both my protective dogs (and me) at ease. Perry takes them on brisk, 1.5-2 mile walks, and they return happily tired. He’s always punctual and thorough, sending updates and photos through the Rover app, which I really appreciate. My dogs genuinely look forward to seeing him, and I feel confident they’re in great hands. Perry has been a huge help, and I’m thrilled to continue working with him. Highly recommend!”
“We LOVE Randi!!! She takes great care of Ruda, even taking her to play at her house with her dogs before it after her walk, if I want. But she always walks her, which she needs for exercise, not just babysits. We couldn't be happier. She is walking her twice a week. I wish I'd found her sooner!”
“This was the second time I had Sierra review my dog, Bodhi. She was on time, came on short notice, and sent a pic of my dog chilling on his blanket. Very happy with her service and would recommend her to anyone.”
About: I’ve taken care of our families pets over the years, walking, playing, feeding and caring for them. Friends trust me to watch their dogs, and I enjoy doing it! I work from home on creative endeavors and I’m fortunate enough to be able to create my own schedule. I’m flexible and happy to work my schedule around yours! I’m happy to care for your pet in your own home, and will follow any instruction you can provide for me. I’m easy going and efficient.
“Our boy immediately took to Gaia! She met him during our first week with him and she has been nothing but sweet and great with him. Bernie loves when she stops by for his daily afternoon walk. Since both my partner and I work, it is such a relief to know that our dog is in good hands when he needs some afternoon relief. Couldn’t recommend Gaia enough!!”
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life. From Labradors to chihuahuas and everything in between. My partner and I currently have a 4 year old beagle. I’ve worked at Petco, Petsmart, and Unleashed. As a licensed therapist, I still get to work with the occasional therapy dog in sessions 💚 Between my partner’s work schedule and mine, we offer flexible, highly attentive dog care in our home, perfect for pups who thrive on steady companionship. I have a fenced backyard and one dog to keep your fur baby company. We also have a dog door for emergencies and plenty of food, water, and treats.
About: I’ve grown up with animals and have always had a strong, calm connection with them. I’m gentle, patient, and very attentive, and I focus on making sure each pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and caring for them like they’re my own. I am currently unemployed so I have lots of free time! I’m available any day Monday through Sunday mostly anytime after 12 pm! I usually always have my phone by me so I should respond quickly :) I always prioritize a pet’s safety, comfort, and routine. In a client’s home, I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medications if needed, and any house rules. I make sure pets are always supervised in safe environments and never left in situations where they could get hurt. I also keep the home clean and secure, and I’m respectful of the client’s space. My goal is to make pets feel as comfortable and stress-free as possible while their owner is away.
“Our family is so thankful for Luis! He is professional, knowledgeable, and reliable. Luis has helped us with both walking and training our golden doodle and we highly recommend him!”

About: For as long as I can remember I’ve had pets in the house. Mainly dogs and cats. I have a lot of energy so going to the park and making sure your pet sees plenty of daylight won’t be an issue. I am also not against having dogs or cats on the furniture but I will always respect a clients request to maintain any kind boundaries already in place! I am currently trying to take this on full time so you can contact me whenever! After reaching out to me I will notify in message about any changes, appointments or errands that might have an impact on schedule. I live in Reseda so the environment is pretty calm and perfect for a dog or two. Id like to say I’m pretty good at communication so feel free to ask anything, anytime!
“Sara is an incredibly kind and caring dog lover, taking the time to make sure our dog is happy and getting the exercise she needs. She is extremely personable and easy to work with. We couldn’t ask for a better person to take care of our dog.”
“Denise has been amazing with Stella and Milo. They have lots of energy and she has been great to adapt to their own unique personalities. Stella is 9 1/2yo and started limping one night and she let me know right away sending me videos and pictures. She always sends great updates and pictures which makes my shifts so much better!”
About: Hi, I'm Ever and I have provided pet care to family and neighbors' pets since I can remember! More recently, my father's 3 dogs and fish! I have also partnered with organizations to provide workplace visits where therapy animals, including dogs, can interact with employees. I currently work at home so I am available throughout the week and weekends, day and night. I support urgent and immediate requests as well! My mother and father were in wheelchairs their entire lives, so it was important to ensure safety mechanisms that would benefit both our family and pets. I will be able to provide similar, if not more, support for your pets, home and family!

“She did an amazing job taking Valkyrie on walks, being on time and communicating regularly updates with pictures, videos and msgs. I would highly recommend her to anyone. Valkyrie is looking forward to her next walks with Lexy. Thank you again.”
About: I’ve been animal-obsessed forever. I briefly planned to be a vet… until I discovered how temperatures are taken and quickly pivoted to professional pet spoiler. I’m the friend everyone calls for reliable dog sitting and cat sitting, and I treat every pet like my own (nicknames absolutely included). I have hands-on experience with puppies, senior dogs, shy cats, and multi-pet households. I’m attentive to routines, respectful of your house rules, and big on clear communication with photo and video updates so you always know your pet is safe and happy. After fostering a dozen pups, I had my first foster fail in 2014 when Stevie came home for good. He’s now my geriatric chihuahua, living his best life fueled by naps, Greenies, and prime sunbathing real estate. Your pet will get the same loving, attentive care! Pet care is already a natural part of my daily routine. I have a flexible, work-from-home schedule much of the week, which allows me to give pets in my care plenty of attention, supervision, and companionship throughout the day. I’m thoughtful about structuring my time around feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and check-ins, and I always aim to keep each pet on their normal routine to minimize stress. Because I share my home with a senior chihuahua, I’m especially attuned to comfort, safety, and gentle care. Whether it’s daily walks, medication, or extra cuddle time, I build pet care into my week so every animal gets reliable, loving attention. I keep your pet’s routine as normal and stress-free as possible while you’re away. I carefully follow all feeding, walk, medication, and care instructions — right down to favorite toys and nicknames. I treat every client’s home with great respect and always keep things clean and tidy. You’ll receive regular photo and video updates, and I stay very attentive to your pet’s comfort, safety, and energy level. With my fostering experience and senior pet background, I’m patient, observant, and quick to flag anything that seems off. My goal is simple: you come home to a happy pet and a home exactly as you left it.
About: Animals have always trusted me, and I take that seriously. I've cared for pets in all stages of life—whether it’s a high-energy pup needing structure or an older cat who just wants safe and spacious company. I pay close attention to each animal’s unique temperament and needs, and I’m often told I bring a calming presence. Friends and family have relied on me for years to step in when they’re away, knowing their pets—and their homes—will be treated with care and respect. I am a musician and work my own hours. This to say that I am uniquely available to meet the needs of your pet- routine included. I take great care to create a calm, gentle, attentive environment that feels safe and familiar for animals. I pay close attention to their routines, signals, and comfort zones. I am someone who insists on clarity. I understand the importance that instructions are clearly understood and for you to feel the comfort of that while you’re away. I communicate clearly, efficiently, and effectively. It takes a real trust to leave your animals and your home in someone else's hands, and I take that responsibility with utmost seriousness—treating your space and your companion with the respect they both deserve.

“This was my first time using Rover for my big boy German Shepherd. Tiantian was awesome the whole way through. My boy was very nervous and anxious staying at another home especially without me and Tiantian was incredibly patient and understanding. She sent daily pictures which I was also grateful for. I highly recommend Tiantian to watch your dog. She was outstanding.”
“Silvana thank you for taking care & loving of our Kasper & Kassie. My 2 furbabies enjoyed their stayed in your house, loved the pictures and we see that our dogs made a lot of friends with the other dogs during their playtime. Silvana was so professional and knowledgeable in caring dogs. And surely will recommend her 100%. John&KrisG”
“Andrew and Karrie are wonderful hosts. My dog was well taken care of, and they were open to communicating with us while our dog was under their care. I recommend them without hesitation and will use them again.”
“My chunky boy, Titan had a great time with Ori. He stayed with her for 3days. She was giving me updates and sending me pictures of my boy. She made sure that my Titan was in good hands. Will definitely bring him back. I picked him up today and he is dogged out. He had so much fun with his pawfriends. Highly recommended.”
“Jody is so sweet and took such good care of Koda. He got lots of love from her and her family. When we picked him up he seemed like he didn’t even want to go home, he was enjoying it so much. She even washed his doggie bed.♥️ Jody’s location is perfect for us since we need to pass her house on the way to the airport. We will definitely choose Jody again to take care of our Koda.”
“Excellent first booking with Kevin! Our pup was well loved and photos sent during our travels were much appreciated. Our dog came home very happy and exhausted from his fun stay. Communication with Kevin was very responsive and he runs a super reliable boarder! Thank you so much, Kevin! We look forward to booking with you soon!”
“Sheena was outstanding! Very communicative and took great care of our dog. Loved all of the photos she sent along the way. We felt very comfortable with her and our dog was happy when we arrived. If we need a sitter again, I will definitely see if she is available.”
“We were visiting Las Vegas and needed last‑minute care for our two elderly dogs, and Diane truly went above and beyond. Not only did she welcome both of our girls on short notice, she cared for them for four days during a week of extreme heat — something they wouldn’t have tolerated safely. This was our first time using Rover, and Diane made the entire experience feel easy and reassuring. She was wonderfully communicative from start to finish, sending updates and photos throughout their stay. One of our girls, Sherry, had an upset stomach, and Diane was so attentive and comforting, letting us know she was keeping a close eye on her. Her kindness allowed us to actually relax and enjoy our trip, knowing our dogs were in safe, loving hands. We are incredibly grateful for her care and hope to use her babysitting services again. Diane is truly a gem, and we can’t thank her enough.”
“Rajarshi is absolutely amazing! He watched our dog like as if he was his own child! He sent us regular updates with pictures and videos of what our dog was doing during the day! Gave him 3-4 walks during the day, played with him and took such great care of him! We will always leave our dog with Rajarshi! Rajarshi’s background and experience in fostering dogs makes him one of the most experienced & well rounded pet sitter who you can trust blindfoldedly! I would say that anyone and everyone can trust him with their pets! I wish I could give him 10 stars ⭐️ but 5 is the maximum we can give so giving him 5 stars!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Victoria was amazing! She was able to watch my dog on very short notice for a family emergency and was very communicative throughout the whole process. My dog was clearly well cared for and happy during her stay.”
“Once again Ashley provided great care of our dog. She kept us updated throughout his visit, and it was apparent he had settled in comfortably. It’s so nice to have peace of mind when you’re away from your pet.”
“Levi was SO HAPPY here!! He was in the best hands and they gave us the best updates and sent him home with a packet of report cards and goodies ?? we are so grateful to have found somewhere that we felt Levi absolutely loved ! (He may not have wanted to come home ?) we will absolutely be booking again!!”
“My dog had a wonderful stay with Caira! She was very patient with him and took him for lots of walks! First time seeing my dog genuinely happy with a sitter! 10/10! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Thank you so much to Renata and her family for looking after our 1 year old Chihuahua-mix named Sydney. We are not used to leaving her since she is so young, so I was very sad and anxious. It was our first time using Rover and any service like this. Reneta kindly offered a free meet-and-greet so Sydney could briefly get to know her house, yard, and pets. While we were on a 4-night vacation, we got tons of updates and pictures from Renata! Renata was kind enough to let Sydney sleep in her bed, and I am sure Sydney sometimes woke her for some late-night potty times. Renata also mentioned Sydney got better at playing and socializing with her own dogs, as well as the dog she cares for during her doggy daycare. I would 100% recommend her, and I certainly intend to use her services again soon! It's so nice to know as a new dog mommy that I can have the freedom to travel and truly know my baby is taken care of. Sydney seems happy too - its as if her eyes ar saying "Wow! I had a great time!" She had her only little adventure while we were adventuring! THANK YOU, RENATA!”
“Danielle was wonderful! She and her fur babies took very good care of my brothers dog while he was in the hospital rehab for 11 days. It gave the whole family peace of mind knowing he was in a safe and loving place! Will definitely use her again if needed.”
“Had to take a short trip and Rachel took such great care of my dog. Received updates and pictures regularly. Will definitely use Rachel again to take care of my girl :)”
“Candy is wonderful!! Caring, loving, knowledgable. Everything you want in a caretaker when you can't be there yourself. Big house and big back yard! I'll definitely be using her again. Ruby had a good time! Thank you, Candy!!”
