“Sara took such great care of our dog while we were away, sending us pictures and updates throughout her entire stay. She was treated like one of the family. Our dog really enjoyed her experience and we would definitely recommend Sara to everyone.”
“Megan and her family were great! Megan sent me updates throughout the weekend to let me know how things were going. When Remy got dirty from playing outside she gave her bath. Remy came home tired and happy!”
“Fantastic cat sitter. Available on short notice and took amazing care of 2 cats. She sent frequent updates including pictures and videos, easy to communicate with, and our cats loved her. She was very kind and loving to our boys. We had to go out of town on short notice and she was very open to our needs. Really appreciated will definitely be utilizing her services next time”
“Sunny was fantastic!! This was the first time I used Rover and the whole process was wonderful. I was able to set up a meet and greet first, then book through the app and Sunny was very responsive with my texts. She also sent me loads of picture (which I really appreciated) and that helps a lot when I am traveling and I miss my lil guy! I plan on rebooking with her very soon!”
“Laura took such great care of my baby Logan! She communicated very well and even sent me video showing how he was doing. Highly recommended! She was really flexible and accommodating, especially considering my very last-minute booking. Thank you, Laura!”
“Diana was amazing! This was the first time using Rover and a sitter, and Diana made me feel so comfortable and trusting in her care. She and I pre-met so I was able to introduce my dog to her and check out the space and she spent all the time I wanted and answered all of my questions. When I dropped him off, my dog was trembling and nervous at first and she helped calm him and soon they were best of friends. She sent updates, pictures, and photos while I was out of town, which was comforting and reassuring. I will definitely use Diana again and would recommend her wholeheartedly.”
“Tammy Jeff are very kind people. They have a great house and backyard to host your pets. I received photos of my happy dog and if she could talk im sure she would tell me how much fun she had! Thanks Tammy and Jeff”
About: I enjoy spending lots of time playing, walking and even a little training. I have also had senior dogs that need a little extra care and attention. I am recently unemployed and have lots of time available. I would love nothing more than to help as many pets/pet parents as I can. Dogs can enjoy lots of play time and walks as well as maybe a little place time and snacks. I have had senior dogs as well that just need some down time and cuddles. I have a big fenced in backyard that allows for lots of playtime or maybe some rest in the shade.
“Max came through in last minute pinch! We had to find a trusting care taker for our dog because our venue event informed us the same day, only service dogs. I was able enjoy the event because Max gave us updates with videos and pics. My dog was returned with cuddles and seemed at peace and relaxed. I truly appreciate Max and highly recommend him.”
“Denise is the BEST! Pixie is 9 and has a heart condition. She also has a stubborn personality so it takes a special someone to take care of her. I needed to leave her with someone for 5 days. I just moved down here and didn’t know anyone. I am SO happy I found Denise. She was amazing with Pix. Pixie loved her so so much! Best part about it was that I could enjoy my time away and not have to worry one bit. She was very good at communicating and following all of Pixie’s routines. I will definitely be using Denise again. I wouldn’t want anyone else. Very Very satisfied! Thank you so much for taking care of my baby as if she was your own. She really enjoyed spending her getaway with you.”
“Great family. I felt very confident leaving my dog, Apollo with them for 5 days. Carrie kept me updated with videos & pictures and his overall behavior. So I knew he was comfortable and happy. I highly recommend this wonderful family. Apollo had a great time.”
“It is our first time boarding our dog, so we were a bit nervous, but Soonok was amazing! Our dog likes to walk outside, and Soonok brought him out for walks and even updated us with photos and videos. We appreciate Soonok being communicative and for taking great care of our dog. 5 stars for sure!”
“Shannon took care of our nearly 14-year-old chihuahua for a week while we were away on our babymoon, and I truly could not have asked for a better sitter. Our little guy requires lifelong medication twice a day and occasionally experiences seizure symptoms, so finding someone we could fully trust was incredibly important to us. Shannon was absolutely amazing. She stayed perfectly on schedule with his medications, took such great care of his feeding routine, and was very accommodating to all of our requests. She also sent us lots of updates and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. What impressed me most was how naturally she understood our chihuahua’s personality and needs almost immediately, without us having to explain much at all. It was clear that she genuinely cared for him and made him feel comfortable and loved. I’m so grateful we found Shannon, and she will absolutely be our go-to sitter in the future. Thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of our precious little guy.💕 We were truly able to relax and enjoy our vacation knowing he was in such good hands.”
“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 🎉”
“Amazing! She took care of my dog for three weeks, sent pictures, stuck to her dietary needs, washed her crate and even gave her a bath at no extra charge! I highly recommend her services and would definitely hire her again! Thank you so much!”
“Marlo is wonderful with dogs! She is very attentive and took such great care of our dog while we were away on vacation. She walked our dog 3+ times a day and played with him in her courtyard ensuring the dogs she was caring for all got along and played well together. We received pictures and videos several times a day which were very much appreciated and let us know our dog was well cared for. I highly recommend Marlo and I know our dog would love to stay with her next time we need a sitter. We can’t say enough good things about Marlo.”
“Our dog Blue had the best time staying with Dianiris and her family. From the get go, Dianiris responded quickly to texts and was very kind and reassuring (I might have been having a little separation anxiety of my own lol). I really appreciated all of the check-ins and photos she sent while Blue was with her too. Dianiris will definitely be our go-to sitter if we are back in the area!”

“Zeni was fantastic and I will definitely be using her again. Always on time and even took notice of outdoor water fountain that needed water while we were away. Absolutely a great connection...”
“Maddy followed through with everything we asked. Reptar is a little jerk to new people sometimes but she was able to get him to come out, play a little, and become friends with him by the end of his care. He didn’t have any accidents when I came home which is the best thing I could ask for since he’s likes to when I’m out of town to make me know he’s mad with a stranger. That just shows how great she was with him. would definitely book her again!”
“Mary Beth was a reliable and caring pet sitter for my 6-year-old cat, Ozzie. She took the time to learn about Ozzie’s personality and needs, which made me feel very comfortable leaving him in her care. She communicated well, sent photos during every visit, and handled all feeding and litter box clean-up. Mary Beth was kind, friendly, and clearly experienced with different pet personalities. Ozzie was well cared for and comfortable with her. I would highly recommend Mary Beth to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive pet sitter.”
About: I have been around cats my whole life and have had cats ever since I was born. I currently have two cats, one who is very friendly and outgoing and another who is more skittish but has become more comfortable over time. Because of this, I understand that every cat has a different personality and needs patience, respect, and care at their own pace. I also have experience fostering kittens, so I am comfortable caring for younger cats that may need extra attention, gentleness, and supervision. Whether your cat is playful, shy, independent, or cuddly, I will make sure they feel safe and cared for while you are away. I will check in frequently, keep up with feeding routines, clean litter boxes, and give them attention in the way they are most comfortable with.
“Jessica did an awesome job! She went above and beyond for me. My cats are very messy eaters and she did a great job cleaning the bowls, wiping down the countertops, and cleaning the litter box. She also lit my candles so the house smelled nice when I came home. She gave great updates and took awesome pictures of my babies. I would definitely recommend her services.”
“Emily was great and super communicative! Emily sent pictures during her drop-in visits and my kitty looked very happy. Would definitely recommend and use her services again. We also did a meet and greet ahead of time, which was super nice! Thanks, Emily!”
“Megan and her family provided exceptional care for Ollie, ensuring he was treated as one of their own. If you are feeling anxious about leaving your pets, rest assured that they are in good hands. I was in a bind and they came through for me. Thank you very much! I will use services again. 😇”
“Natasja was a great pet sitter! My cat seemed to like her at first sight and felt very comfortable. She was fed really well and Natasja spent a lot of time with her so she was very happy too. I would definitely recommend her!”
“Fantastic cat sitter. Available on short notice and took amazing care of 2 cats. She sent frequent updates including pictures and videos, easy to communicate with, and our cats loved her. She was very kind and loving to our boys. We had to go out of town on short notice and she was very open to our needs. Really appreciated will definitely be utilizing her services next time”
About: I have always had pets growing up and love both dogs and cats! I’ve lived in socal for 10 years now and just moved to sunset beach, where I plan on getting a dog when my landlord allows it. For now, though, I’ll give your pets all my love and attention! I work a full time job and will be available some weeknights, but primarily weekends. Animal sitting, walking.. etc. I need more animals in my life and this is my first step in that direction! I treat pets better than humans in most cases, as I’m sure you do too. They are extensions of our family that offer unconditional love, and deserve the same in return.
“Denise was awesome. She was super flexible with timing, very thorough and thoughtful in our meet and greet, and sent great updates throughout the day! Nora came back happy and relaxed.”
“Lindsey was a blessing. She took such good care of Joey, our cat, and was great with communication both before and during the stay. She has a kind, gentle spirit and can be trusted in our home. Would definitely use Lindsey again for our house/cat sitter!”
“Shannon made our shy kitty feel right at home. She so graciously accommodated all her needs and sent lots of pictures throughout her stay. When we picked her up I could tell she was feeling comfy and confident in Shannon’s cozy space!”
About: I’m a responsible, caring, and attentive sitter who truly enjoys spending time with dogs/cats and making sure they feel happy, safe, and loved. I love taking dogs out for walks, playtime, and parks while paying close attention to their comfort and routine. I’m patient when getting to know each pet’s personality, habits, and needs, so they can feel relaxed and cared for while you’re away. I personally raised a Golden Retriever, which gave me hands-on experience with daily care, exercise, and companionship. I’ve also been helping care on and off for my neighbor’s two 10-year-old King Charles Spaniels and 5 cats for the past 5 years, including walks, feeding, potty breaks, playtime, parks, and keeping them company. Your pet’s happiness and safety will always be my priority. I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give pets the attention, care, walks, and companionship they need throughout the day. I’m available most weekdays and weekends. At this time, I’m unable to offer boarding in my home, but I’m happy to provide drop-in visits, walks, and house sitting. I provide regular photo and video updates so my clients always know how their pets are doing in real time. I make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for by following their normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and any special instructions. I take time to build trust with each pet, give them plenty of attention, and keep their environment clean, calm, and secure whether in my client’s home or during visits.
“Naomi is the best! She took such great care, time, and gave our sweet dog soo much affection. She also administered her medication and insulin shots like a pro. My dog loved her! Thanks soo Much Naomi!!! And the pictures and videos were perfect! We highly recommend this beautiful lady to anyone in need of a pet sitter! 5 stars!!!!”
About: Growing up, I have always been surrounded by dogs, cats, birds, and more. As a pet friendly family, I gained a passion for caring and bonding with animals large and small. I am a firm believer that our furry friends never hide who they are and love unconditionally no matter what the situation. Pursuing my passion, I began pet sitting for family and friends in both the Southern California and South Florida communities. I have assisted with walking, feeding, playing, bathing, and giving medications when needed. I am currently working as an independent contractor with a flexible work schedule. I will be happy to work with your schedule accordingly. Looking forward to meeting your special pet. Currently, I am sharing a home with a 6 pound chihuahua and a Pit/Bulldog mix. Both pups are spoiled with lots of love and comfort. Each dog has their own beds, blankets, and toys in multiple areas of our home. Long walks and playtime are also daily activities that everyone looks forward to.
“Jelena was awesome. Couldn’t ask for more. She was flexible and responded quickly. She communicated thoroughly and efficiently. She showed up at the times scheduled and followed instructions, sent pics, and communicated before, during, and after her visits. I was very nervous using a stranger who had never met our dog before. Usually I try to arrange meet and greets. He has only been cared for by family and is big, intimidating looking, and can be a little quirky sometimes. But I was in a jam at the last minute so I found Jelena. So glad I did! She was great at greeting him and understanding how to interact with his size, breed, needs, and temperament. Jelena was conscientious and thoughtful with how she left our dog and our home after her visit. Look forward to having her return!”

About: I have been around dogs my whole life. I grew up with a Labrador from the time I was born until I was around 10 years old, and since then I have had two other dogs, including a Great Pyrenees/Golden Retriever mix and a Border Collie mix. Because of this, I have experience with different sizes, breeds, and energy levels, from large dogs that need strong handling to active dogs that need plenty of attention and playtime. I have also dog sat for family and friends before, so I understand how important it is to make sure each dog feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owner is away. I will always check in frequently with updates, make sure your dog is fed on schedule, take time to play with them, and give them the attention they need. My schedule is very flexible. I am home for the summer from UCSD and currently shadowing a doctor, but I am able to work my schedule around what is best for dog or cat sitting. I am available on both weekdays and weekends, and I can usually make most times work. I will always communicate clearly if I have something planned on a certain day, and I will make sure we figure out a schedule that works best for you and your pet. Your pet’s safety and comfort will always be my top priority. I will make sure they are cared for, supervised, and given plenty of attention while you are away. I am comfortable playing with pets, throwing tennis balls or toys, taking dogs on walks, letting them outside, and watching them closely while they are out. I will always follow your instructions for feeding, routines, walks, playtime, and any specific needs your pet may have. I understand how important it is to keep pets on their normal schedule, so I will make sure they are fed on time and cared for in a safe, responsible, and loving environment.

I highly recommend her and will be using her in the future!”

About: I am an animal lover through and through! I started pet sitting for family and loved it so much I decided to make it a job! I have experience with overnight sitting of anxious pups that require medication administration as well as dog walking with both small and large breeds. I have two indoor cats that I have been responsible for since kittens. I’m a first year college student at ASU and taking minimal classes so what better way to fill my time in then playing and watching animals!

About: I have been taking care of many animals all my life. I have taken care of pretty much every pet you can think of from pigeons, cats, dogs, lizards, bunnies, all, and all the way to horses and cows.

I can also stay or stop in your place several times a day several options to make your pet most comfortable.
About: I truly believe in the importance of genuine care! Since animals can't verbally express their needs or emotions, I prioritize bonding with them, understanding their behaviors and cues. Building trust is paramount; your pet needs to feel safe and comfortable with me before any service is provided. I run my own business and find that I have ample free time to offer my services to our community while also making a few more furry friends! When providing care at the client's home, I ensure to familiarize myself with the pet's surroundings, maintaining their routine and environment as much as possible. This helps reduce stress and anxiety for the pet, fostering a sense of security and familiarity. Additionally, I adhere to any specific instructions provided by the pet owner to ensure the highest level of care and comfort for their beloved furry friend.
About: I am a dog owner to two of my own. My oldest is 10 and I’ve couldn’t find something that gives me the most joy in taking care of them and playing with them. I also have 5 years experience with fostering all kinds of puppies and dogs. This experience fostering allowed me to learn how to take care of dogs that aren’t my own. It also showed me how to comfort, play, and love all kinds of dogs. I am currently a college student home for the summer and have plenty of time on my hands. I also have my own car to make travel easier. My weeks are mostly free, which leads to plenty of free time on my hands at any time of day. I always make sure to create a trusting environment for not only the dogs but for the clients as well. I understand how leaving your dogs with someone can be scary, so I try to create a trusting and caring relationship with everyone involved. I also never try to overstep with dogs and clients. In terms of taking care of the dogs and instructions, I make sure to listen to all of the clients’ wants and needs and make sure they all get fulfilled in order for the best outcome for the dogs and clients.

I take time to build trust with each pet, give them plenty of attention, and keep their environment clean, calm, and secure whether in my client’s home or during visits.

“Sara took such great care of our dog while we were away, sending us pictures and updates throughout her entire stay. She was treated like one of the family. Our dog really enjoyed her experience and we would definitely recommend Sara to everyone.”
“Sunny was fantastic!! This was the first time I used Rover and the whole process was wonderful. I was able to set up a meet and greet first, then book through the app and Sunny was very responsive with my texts. She also sent me loads of picture (which I really appreciated) and that helps a lot when I am traveling and I miss my lil guy! I plan on rebooking with her very soon!”
“Laura took such great care of my baby Logan! She communicated very well and even sent me video showing how he was doing. Highly recommended! She was really flexible and accommodating, especially considering my very last-minute booking. Thank you, Laura!”
“Tammy Jeff are very kind people. They have a great house and backyard to host your pets. I received photos of my happy dog and if she could talk im sure she would tell me how much fun she had! Thanks Tammy and Jeff”
About: I enjoy spending lots of time playing, walking and even a little training. I have also had senior dogs that need a little extra care and attention. I am recently unemployed and have lots of time available. I would love nothing more than to help as many pets/pet parents as I can. Dogs can enjoy lots of play time and walks as well as maybe a little place time and snacks. I have had senior dogs as well that just need some down time and cuddles. I have a big fenced in backyard that allows for lots of playtime or maybe some rest in the shade.
“Denise is the BEST! Pixie is 9 and has a heart condition. She also has a stubborn personality so it takes a special someone to take care of her. I needed to leave her with someone for 5 days. I just moved down here and didn’t know anyone. I am SO happy I found Denise. She was amazing with Pix. Pixie loved her so so much! Best part about it was that I could enjoy my time away and not have to worry one bit. She was very good at communicating and following all of Pixie’s routines. I will definitely be using Denise again. I wouldn’t want anyone else. Very Very satisfied! Thank you so much for taking care of my baby as if she was your own. She really enjoyed spending her getaway with you.”
“Great family. I felt very confident leaving my dog, Apollo with them for 5 days. Carrie kept me updated with videos & pictures and his overall behavior. So I knew he was comfortable and happy. I highly recommend this wonderful family. Apollo had a great time.”
“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 🎉”
“Marlo is wonderful with dogs! She is very attentive and took such great care of our dog while we were away on vacation. She walked our dog 3+ times a day and played with him in her courtyard ensuring the dogs she was caring for all got along and played well together. We received pictures and videos several times a day which were very much appreciated and let us know our dog was well cared for. I highly recommend Marlo and I know our dog would love to stay with her next time we need a sitter. We can’t say enough good things about Marlo.”
“Our dog Blue had the best time staying with Dianiris and her family. From the get go, Dianiris responded quickly to texts and was very kind and reassuring (I might have been having a little separation anxiety of my own lol). I really appreciated all of the check-ins and photos she sent while Blue was with her too. Dianiris will definitely be our go-to sitter if we are back in the area!”
“If we could rate more than 5 stars we would!! Corinne and Louis took such great care of our Barry boy! They were super great at communicating and keeping us updated with pictures of Barry throughout his stay. They kept Barry active with playing fetch and going on plenty of walks! We definitely will be booking again in the future! Thank you so much Corinne and Louis!”
“Chris was a great dog sitter. He cared for Bleu like his own and kept me updated with photos in a daily basis. He even was kind enough to meet prior to the boarding to socialize our dogs and ensure they got along. Definitely keeping Chris in mind for future dog sitting 😊”
“Sung and his family provided great care for our pup. They took her to the beach a couple of times--which she loves. Thank you for giving her a nice home environment while we were away.”
“Ellie always has the best time with Sarah and Max. We never worry about her as we know that she is with a kind and loving person. Thank you for another special time for Ellie!”
“Nikcole was responsive and was able to accommodate my short notice booking. I felt very comfortable with her and her family watching over my dog, Coco. I would use her again and recommend her to others.”
“Matthew and Kim did a great job in taking care of Breezy and keeping me updated. I needed a last minute sitter due to personal reasons and they were willing to take breezy in with open arms. I highly recommend them!”
About: I’ve been a lifelong dog lover and understand that pets are family. I have experience caring for puppies, adult dogs, and senior dogs, and I’m comfortable administering medications, following detailed care instructions, and maintaining each dog’s regular routine. I’m committed to providing a safe, loving, and comfortable environment where every dog feels at home. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, playtime, or relaxing with plenty of attention, I’ll make sure they feel happy, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I carefully follow each pet’s feeding schedule, exercise routine, medications, and any special instructions to ensure consistency and peace of mind. You can count on regular photo updates, reliable communication, and dependable care throughout your dog’s stay. My goal is to treat every dog like family and make their time with me fun, safe, and as stress-free as possible—for both you and your pet. I’m available for weekend boarding and love giving dogs a safe, comfortable, and loving home away from home. Every dog receives personalized care based on their routine, energy level, and personality. Whether your pup enjoys long walks, playing fetch, snuggles, or simply relaxing in a quiet environment, I make sure they feel happy, secure, and loved throughout their stay. Please message me with your scheduling needs and I will do my best to accommodate. Thank you <3 Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. My home is clean, calm, and pet-friendly, with plenty of space to relax and a fully fenced yard for safe, supervised outdoor time. I never leave dogs unattended outside, and I closely monitor them during play and throughout the day. A crate is available if your dog is crate-trained or if they feel more comfortable having their own quiet space.
