“I highly recommend Dee Dee and her loving family to take special care of your dog. They truly treated my dog Cooper like one of their family. My senior age dog has some separation anxiety issues and is noise sensitive, and the family was patient and kind to him as he settled in to the new environment. Cooper got lots of ball throws from the kids in the back yard and lots of snuggles at night. I got lots of pictures and updates throughout his stay. I got to relax on my vacation knowing my dog was living his “Other” Best Life! This is family that wants to do Rover because they just love dogs and they want to be blessed by having a dog in their home. I could just feel the love and care that this family showered my precious dog with.”
“Savannah recently watched my 2 fur babies and they were quite happy when I picked them up! She gave me updates during my time away with pics and I could tell my guys were content and well cared for. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Savannah!”
“Joseph, is excellent as always. He’s not only watched our super high active German shepherd. He also watched our puppy and made him feel very welcome. Great experience every time! He’s my go too and I won’t use anyone else.”
“Leticia was such a sweetheart! Nova is a little agro and definitely showed it but Leticia and her hubby did not give up! Sure enough my pup warmed up to them and had a blast! Loved all the photos to let me know my baby girl was happy!”
“Nina was incredible! Our girl Hazel had the best time while she was there. I’m pretty sure she was sad to come home. There is structure but so much playtime outside with the other dogs and we got multiple pictures/videos everyday so we could see everything she was doing. So happy to know we have found someone that we feel comfortable with moving forward! Hazel will definitely be back!”
“Elaiza is so kind and helpful! This is Loki’s 5th stay with her and her husband Gio, and Loki loves them like extended family. They update us frequently and send cute photos of Loki’s activities while we are away. He gets along with their husky Nezuko which is really helpful keeping him active. Will always choose to rebook with them”
“Emely was able to accommodate us last-minute and was quick to respond, provided multiple updates, and was so sweet with our dog. We know Penny had an absolute blast and already have plans to book Emely again!”
“I was so worried about leaving my puppy overnight for the first time because my pup is so energetic but they were so great and updated me consistently and she eased my anxiety about it so much. I’m happy I found someone I trust to leave my puppy if I have to leave town a couple days 😊”
“Carolyn was wonderful! Very good communication, beautiful home with big back yard enough space for my pups to roam and play. Gated community with a safe environment. I appreciate your help and will be rebooking again.”
“I couldn’t be happier with the care my dog received! From the very beginning, it was clear that Debbie truly love animals and take their responsibility seriously. She kept me updated with regular messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. My dog came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. It’s not easy to find someone you can fully trust with your pet, but Debbie went above and beyond in every way. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and attentive dog sitter—and I’ll definitely be booking with Debbie again in the future!”
“David and Janice were great!! We picked up our pups…they were very happy and very tired from playing with Kona and the fam. We won’t hesitate to use David again!! Thank you both for taking such good care!!”
“Emmy and her fam were incredible - they were flexible with drop off times and feeding a mix of wet and dry food. Daisy got lots of social stimulation from the fam and a new naps on the sunny balcony. This is a great place for your doggo!”
“John was very polite upon meeting and seemed to do a fantastic job at taking care of my dog Henny. Very responsive and sent me photos daily. Would HIGHLY recommend and will definitely rebook again. Thank you John!”
“Spectacular house on the inside and the backyard! They have a room for the dogs to sleep in and stay in while they are eating dinner. Our dog went on a walk every night which helped him get exercise and out of the house. We were sent many pictures throughput the day. They treated our dog as if he was their own!!! Definitely recommend!!!!!!!”
“Megan is very personable. From the time I did the meet and greet with my lil 16 year old pup, she was friendly and my dog liked her. Once I saw my dog was comfortable around her and her 2 dogs, I was assured I found a great dog sitter. She gave my lil pup his morning meds. I would highly recommend Megan.”
“Rachelle was amazing with our dogs, Duke and Gracie!! A friend recommended her to us after our original sitter canceled last minute, and we’re so glad they did. She sent lots of great photos and videos, walked them twice a day, and clearly took incredible care of them. They were so happy with her they honestly didn’t want to leave her house. We felt completely at ease knowing they were in such good hands and would book Rachelle again in a heartbeat. 🐾❤️”
“Here’s a polished, genuine review you could post: This was my first experience using Rover, and Emily & Sam made the entire process easy and reassuring. They took the time to get to know Bear and understand his individual needs before his stay, which gave me a lot of confidence leaving him in their care. Throughout his stay, they sent regular updates and photos, which I really appreciated. It was clear that Bear was well cared for and getting plenty of attention. Overall, I couldn’t be happier with the level of care they provided. I would absolutely recommend Emily & Sam to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring sitter, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book with them again. Five stars!”

“I met Jenna in advance of booking. She’s great. My two cats walked right up to her and let her give them a little scruff. Jenna has great energy. While traveling, she followed the schedule for visits and provided updates on how the boys were doing. She is very personable, professional and responsive. I will definitely use her again.”
“Aletha did a great job of taking care of my senior kitty. She was able to give Cee Cee her pill, and took great care of her while I was gone. I came home to a healthy and happy kitty. I would use Aletha again in the future.”
About: I have lived with and cared for dogs most of my life, all of different breeds, but I am now a sole dog parent to two amazing, working breed (retired) senior dogs. I have learned so much over the years about responsible and safe care for dogs across the spectrum of ages, breeds and size. I am a business owner and a full-time pet parent, I generally have most availability throughout the week and work on the weekends. My fur children take their regular walks in the early evening, so I'm generally most available during the day and during the weekdays. I care for pets based on the preferences expressed by the client. All foundational care with a pet will always be with care, safety and treats.
“As a first time cat owner, we (my husband and I) were very unsettled about leaving her with a complete stranger. We needn't have worried. Kimberly was truly the "cat whisperer" for both my cat and us. Kimberly sent pictures communicated with us every day. We really can't thank her enough. She even trimmed Lollipop's nails!”
“Ashleigh was so great with our 3 giant “puppies.” I loved having the daily reports and feedback. She caught the cutest photos of them too :) Highly recommend her services! Our doggos loved her. We will definitely request for her again.”
“Evelyn gave us peace of mind leaving our 8 month old kittens for the first time. Even though they always hid, she made sure to locate them during each visit and we enjoyed the photos of them.”
“We were very lucky to have Sandra taking care of our Pix for several days . Pix is a 16 years old yorkie with special needs, and Sandra took care of everything, including IV fluids. My Pix is always very relaxed around Sandra, and that says a lot! Thank you, Sandra, we hope you are available next time we need you!”
“Laura is a treasure! She took care of our 2 cats in a loving and caring way, spent quality time with them each day, and made sure they got their medication and treats on a steady schedule. She also took care of our chickens feeding and egg collecting, as well as giving our hens some time to roam the yard each day. She communicated with us every day, sent photos regularly, and was very responsive to our messages. She has a calm demeanor, and was very attentive to our pets needs. I highly recommend Laura for your petsitting needs.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and other pets ever since I was 12. I’ve also had experience with puppies and elderly dogs. Family and friends always rely on me to take care of their dogs while on vacation and I’d say I do a pretty good job! I am currently home for college and would love to pet sit for anyone in need of a sitter. Anytime works for me. I’d be happy to help! I usually like to give dogs a walk if they’re up for it. I give them food and make sure they’re well fed. I also give them baths on occasion!
“We were a little hesitant to try this service but were comforted when they posted that our cat ( Bella) was taken care of. Would definitely recommend this app & Leticia & Denzel”
“Joselyn was absolutely wonderful with our pets, Zena dog and Miley cat, over Valentines weekend. ❤️ From the moment we connected, she was professional, warm and clearly experienced with both dogs and cats.She handled them both very well with patience and care. zena dog got plenty of attention and excessive and care and Miley cat too. We came home to two relaxed, well cared for pets and a tidy home which says everything. ❤️ We wouldn’t hesitate to book Joselyn again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful and caring pet sitter. Thank you, Joselyn, for taking such great care of Zena and Miley.🐾”
“Very plesant experience for me and my dog dealing with this friendly young lady. Given that my dog is a big angry baby I believe it speaks highly of her patience and demiener.”
About: I've had cats my whole life, from sassy to lovable furballs, to different shapes and sizes. I currently have two Tuxedos of my own who I love very much and they get wet and dry food and maybe a little treat if they perform their tricks correctly. I only want what's best for your cats, thank you for taking the time to read this.

“Kaylie was great!!! She was very friendly and quick to communicate with, and she did a thorough job with the instructions we left her for caring for our kitties. Our cats loved her too! Would definitely recommend Kaylie and hope to have her catsit for us again!”
“My dogs were so excited to see Krista when I recently booked her for a drop-in visit. She gave them lots of love and attention and even stayed longer than the booked time. We are so lucky to have such a caring and attentive pet sitter available when we can't be.”

“Can't say enough about how much Kloee and Heidi love going to Art & Sandra's for the day. The care they get is excellent and in the pictures they sent showed playing with their dog Dayna was a highlight!!”
“David did an absolutely fantastic job watching our Golden Retriever, Bailey! From start to finish, he was incredibly flexible and easy to work with, which made the whole experience completely stress-free. We received tons of great pictures and videos, so we never had to wonder how Bailey was doing. It was so clear that Bailey was getting plenty of love, attention, and—most importantly—plenty of belly rubs! David genuinely cared for our pup like his own. We will definitely be booking with him again!”
“Our Bear was in the very best hands! We received messages, pictures and videos throughout the day which we loved! It was comforting to know he was having a blast with the other pups and felt comfortable in their home. Cannot recommend enough!”
“Rob is so patient and kind, even when Chico is having some separation anxiety challenges. We so appreciate his updates, and we know Chico is in good hands with him (and, of course, Chief)!”
About: My name is Karla, I live in Lake Elsinore. I love taking care of dogs as I have 2 beautiful 5 pound yorkie’s who fill my life with joy. I also have a Giant Schauzer who is brilliant and also help me to train other dogs that I take care of. We take long walks, and enjoy a day of fun. I would love to be able to take care and love your pets too Whenever you need too. I stay home and will be able to provide your fur baby with the full care they need. I also love to provide you with pictures through out the day. I have a fenced yard and 3 fur babies to keep your dog safe and with great company. They are also supervised 100 percent of the time with me.
About: I had 2 dogs for 13 years that recently passed away, I love and miss them and am ready to love your dogs like my own. Our previous dogs were nervous during fireworks, did not like to be left alone, we've learned how important it is to be present when caring for dogs. My children and I are home most of the day, my husband works from home so the pets would rarely be alone more than a few hours at a time. Your dog will always have someone available to play with or spend time with during the day. We have a dog door installed that they will always have access to and a large, fenced backyard for running, playing and potty-ing. Our downstairs is tile floors, easy to clean up from any accidents they might have. If they are house trained, they will have access to the upstairs as well and can sleep in our bedrooms. If they are experiencing accidents, we have a hard floor bedroom that one of us humans(lol) will sleep in with the dogs so they do not have to sleep alone.

About: With a background in EMS, I’m trained to assess situations quickly, stay calm, and act responsibly. That translates directly into pet care—I notice small changes, follow instructions carefully, and prioritize your pet’s well-being at all times. I also have a dog of my own that I've been taking care of for 5 years. Currently in Paramedic School Monday-Wednesday! My schedule outside those days are very flexible and I intend on giving you and your furry friend the comfort they need. In your home, I make sure the environment stays clean, secure, and calm. I’m careful with doors, gates, and surroundings to prevent any chance of escape, and I always keep a close eye on behavior and energy levels. Any instructions provided will be followed!

About: Of all animals I have the most experience with dogs. I love dogs all shapes and sizes We've always had a dog at home and I have lots of experience, caring for playing with and walking dogs, including bath time. I'm a recent graduate of heritage high school. I took agriculture at school and worked with the animals on our school farm I'm looking to do rover as often as possible. I don't have any other obligations at this time. So I can dedicate myself to your pets. I am very careful about fences and doors. I'm mindful of owner instructions regarding where their pets can be. And where they are not allowed. I am mindful of them while they are eaten. And while they are playing, to make sure that they remain safe. I checked the pavement before I take a dog out on walks to make sure it's not too hot and always make sure to wash their bowls so that I can help prevent bacteria

“Jill came through with a last minute request… she not only walked our pup but also made sure he was fed, hydrated, and was mindful to keep the walk in the cool shade due to the afternoon heat! Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a reliable and thoughtful sitter/walker.”
“Absolutely stellar service. I had to go out of town and Sydney came every day to walk our dog as nobody in our house was able. She showed up every day at exactly the right time, was super friendly, and took great care of our girl who immediately loved her. I can't recommend Sydney enough.”
