“Matt and Kathryn are absolutely wonderful with our dogs. Never, in all our years of being pet owners, have we taken a vacation without our animals. But we just got back from a week abroad without any concerns for our pups because we knew they were in the very best care. Our dogs miss Matt and Kathryn and their dogs when they go too long between visits. It's so cute to see them get excited when we arrive. Can't recommend them enough.”
“Erica and Ronald were amazing with our dog chip. They took him in tons of walks, went to the park, and gave him lots of love. They treated him as if he were their own. He LOVED Their dog turbo! They got along wonderfully. They sent picture updates multiple times a day which made us feel so comforted. We HIGHLY recommend!”
“Lori is a natural caretaker. She provided so much love and attention to Zara, my standard poodle. I could see how much fun Zara was having through the photogenic pictures Lori sent each day. Lori's 1-acre of land is such a plus for the dogs to run and play. At the end of the stay, Zara and Lori were both sad to part. That speaks volumes about the wonderful level of care your pet will receive while staying with Lori. Book her now!”
“We were so pleased that we found Vadym for our Bella. Vadym and his family were very good with Bella and treated her like their own. They have a nice home with a good size backyard, and Vadym would play ball with Bella for break time. We got photos and videos from Vadym every day. I will definitely use Vadym again next time. Will also recommends his service to others too.”
“Tatyanah & Everardo did an awesome job with my Pup Isla!!! My Pup is very timid around other pups, but Tatyanah, Everardo, and their pups made Her feel very welcome. I received videos and pictures throughout the time Isla stayed at their home. I asked them for feedback and tips on how I can get Isla more comfortable around other pups. I would definitely recommend them. Isla will be seeing them soon as I plan to bring Isla back! Thank you Tatyanah and Everardo!”
“Anasteysha and her family were excellent! Our dog Cookie really enjoyed her stay and was able to play with other dogs. Anasteysha was very responsive and sent many pictures/videos while we were away. We will use their services again!”
“Erica was amazing with my pups! We received pics and updates throughout their stay. My pups were well taken care of and comfy with Erica and her family. Thank you for taking care of my dogs on short notice too ❤️❤️❤️”
“Acausha did an amazing job caring for our two little pups. I was so worried about leaving them fur eight days but I didn’t need to be. Acausha was very patient with our nervous older dog and did a great job with our energetic younger dog. She even sent pictures regularly throughout our trip. I highly recommend Acausha!”
“Sana did a fantastic job taking care of my puppy. She kept me updated throughout the day with timely photos and messages, which gave me great peace of mind. My pup seemed happy, well-cared-for and very comfortable with Sana and her family . Highly recommended for reliability, communication, and genuine care.”
“Alicia and family were absolutely wonderful to Lily. Alicia consistently provided me with updates and photos. She could not have been more caring to Lily. I will absolutely use her services again! Thank you to Alicia and her family, again. Lily loved them!!”
“Tricia and her family treated Iko like part of the family. She sent me plenty of updates and pictures, Iko looked very comfortable and at home there. Having a senior dog, it’s very hard for me to leave him, but I felt at ease leaving him Tricia. Already planning on booking his next stay with her!”
“This was our first time using Rover and we were so lucky to find Brandy! She took great care of our super anxious dog, Kona. We especially appreciated all the daily pictures and updates which provided us with comfort knowing he was doing well without us. An added bonus was Kona meeting Winston and having a bestie for a few days. We couldn’t have been more pleased with his stay at Brandy’s home. Thank you Brandy and Lt. Dan so much!”
“Marta and her beautiful family took excellent care of our Yogi. We loved all the pictures and video. Seeing my dog happy and well while I’m away puts my mind and heart at ease. Thanks, Marta!”
“Pepper had so much fun. This sitter updated me constantly and sent me pictures throughout the days. My dog had so much fun and felt so comfortable with this sitter. I didn’t have to worry about the safety or wellbeing of my pepper with Gabi. Gabi was super quick to respond to me and asked permission before taking my pepper anywhere. I will absolutely use Gabi again and recommend her to anyone that’s using Rover! This was my first time using rover and this experience really set the tone for the app! Amazing dog sitter!!”
“Kym has provided loving attentive care to my little Jazzy several times now. She always replies to messages right away and sends cute photos of my pup during her stay. Last booking was two weeks long and I missed Jazzy terribly but I knew she was in good hands ❤️”
“We were so happy that Holly was able to stay with Angie and her lovely family while we were gone for 5 days. We are picky when it comes to finding the right place for Holly and we lucked out again. I felt like Angie showed as much love and excitement as we do and let Holly have all the same comforts of home, like letting her up on the bed with her son and even got a Thanksgiving dinner treat. Angie has a large yard for big dogs to move around and let her swim in her pool which Holly loves. Boo Radley may be large but he's the sweetest dog around and Holly enjoyed the company. Angie was also very understanding and accommodating with our schedule, which kept changing, and we appreciated that.”
“Diana is absolutely amazing. Knowledgeable, professional, and very sweet. We received updates, pictures and videos during his boarding. Pickles had a wonderful time with the other dogs playing and hanging out!”

“We were very anxious to leave our cat Bambi alone for the weekend for the first time and even more stressed when our sitter fell through last minute. Dana was incredibly attentive and patiently accepted all of our requests for Bambi on short notice. I definitely felt so much more assured that Bambi wouldn’t be completely alone and would have someone as compassionate as Dana to accompany him :-) Dana’s updates on Bambi during check ins really reassured us that Bambi was doing well. and in good hands :-) i would definitely consider Dana again in the future ❤️”
“We were very happy with Noemy, the cats are not used to us not being here and she actually sent pictures of them and they did not hide the entire time (this is huge!!!!!) Will definitely be a repeat customer”
“Josh was a life saver for us! We just moved to California and needed someone we could trust to watch our cat and he was exactly what we were looking for! He was so helpful to us, allowing us to still be able to travel and do what we need to do and know that our cat has a friend to look after them while we are away. So grateful for Josh, he is a must book, you won’t regret it!”
“Sarah was super responsive, and such a great caretaker for our kitty! She listened to our requests and provided thoughtful, care, so we never had to worry about how our guy was doing. Highly recommend!!”
“I had never used Rover or any service like it before and I was so nervous. I used the house sitting service and Anna was so sweet and took care of my two cats. Not only were the kitties taken care of and loved on, she kept the house all clean! She sent photos and when I reached out she replied in a very timely manner! Anna made my time away home a lot less stressful knowing she took care of everything so well. Any future trips, I’ll definitely be wanting Anna to watch the cats! Thank you ❤️”
“Kevin did such an excellent job caring for our cats while we were gone for the holidays. He gave our cats plenty of attention and love. He even sent us videos of them even though we didn't request them. I would absolutely rebook with Kevin. I recommend him 10/10.”
About: Hi! I’m your pet’s new favorite human 😉 and a reliable animal lover who loves keeping pets safe, happy, and comfortable. I grew up with cats and dogs and have become the go-to sitter for friends and family when they travel. I’m happy to care for pets based on their personalities—whether that’s walks, playtime, or quiet companionship. Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities, and I’ll treat them like part of my own pack (or clowder 🐾).
“Great communication and an instant positive connection with the dogs! She was amazing and I didn’t have any second thoughts or stress knowing my dogs were in such good hands. I highly recommend Jacqueline if you want a caring, punctual, and responsible dog sitter who is capable of handling any and all challenges thrown her way!”
“Africa was great with the girls, she kept us updated on how each of them were doing and they were all doing great upon our return. Our cats can take a while to warm up to some people so we’re very appreciative!”
About: • I have over 15 years of experience caring for pets, with most of my hands on experience being with cats. Over the years, I’ve cared for my own pets, helped family and friends with their pets, and also fostered cats. This has helped me understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and comfort level. • I’m especially familiar with cats and their needs, including feeding, litter box cleaning, playtime, and creating a calm, safe, and loving environment. I always pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and try to make them feel secure and comfortable in my care. If needed, I can also help with basic care and grooming, as long as the cat feels comfortable and not stressed. • For boarding, I have a dedicated spare room in my home that is completely reserved for visiting cats, so they can have their own quiet and comfortable space. I only accept one boarding family at a time and do not board other cats together, which helps create a more peaceful and low stress stay. Owners are welcome to bring their cat’s favorite toys, cat tree, litter box, or other familiar items to help them feel more at home. • My goal is always to provide gentle, attentive care and make each pet feel safe, comfortable, and well looked after while their owner is away.
About: I’ve had cats since I was born. I’ve fostered a few dozen kittens and provided care for terminal cats. I know how to perform subcutaneous injections, prepare and use a feeding tube, and a master of delivering oral medication. Will do nail trimming for an additional fee.
“Kati is fantastic! She has a good head on her shoulders and knows the right thing to do without any fuss, but also follows all directions given. We will be booking with her again!”
About: Hi! I’ve had 2 cats since the year 2020, There names are Rudy and Simon. I love them so much and they truly make me laugh and smile like no other. I love being around animals and especially cats. I’ve worked with my cats since they were infants so i believe that i can work with any type of special care a cat may need.
“Paris was great! She sent lots of photos and communicated with me daily. She loves cats and I felt confident that my cat was in good hands. I would definitely leave my cat with her again!”
About: I have experience caring for cats and understand that every cat has their own unique personality, preferences, and routine. From playful and social cats to more shy and independent ones, I take the time to make each cat feel comfortable and cared for in their own space. I’m experienced with daily cat care including feeding schedules, refreshing water, litter box maintenance, playtime, enrichment, and providing companionship. I understand how important consistency is for cats, especially when their owners are away, and I’m committed to keeping their routine as familiar and stress-free as possible. As a cat owner myself, I know how much trust it takes to leave your pets in someone else’s care. I treat every cat with the same patience, attention, and love I would want someone to give my own cats.
“Maisie was amazing! Really appreciate her flexibility and availability to help us out! This was my first experience with Rover and she made it incredibly easy and had great communication throughout to go check on our puppers! Will definitely be interested again in using her in the future, thank you Maisie!”

“Kathryn & Matt Took great care of Charlie. Charlie was always excited when we pulled up to their house. They have a nice setup for your pet to play in the backyard or go on walks in a nice neighborhood.”
“Trish and her family are the best. My dog gets all of the love when she is over and comes home exhausted and has happy dreams. Trish is a great communicator and sends fun pics through the day so my work day is that much better. Moving forward, I will be making arrangements for my dog to stay with Trish and fam when I am out of town so that I can travel assured my pup will have all of the love in my absence.”
About: I recently took a break from dog sitting to focus on caring for my baby. Now that things have settled into a routine, I'm excited to start accepting bookings again! I have 6+ years dog-sitting experience with dogs of many different sizes and temperaments. Personally I have a 85 pound German Shepherd mix, Turbo, a 40 pound labradoodle, Maple, and an 80 pound Rottie/GSD mix named Tater. I thoroughly enjoy playing with them everyday and have learned many training techniques from raising them. I have a great deal of experience caring for a highly allergic and anxious dog. I understand the helplessness that can often come with trying to find a treatment that works. If your dog has allergies/skin issues, or any other special needs, I'm more than happy to help. Rest assured your dog will be given the love and attention they need to feel comfortable in my home. We do have 1 cat (named Sesame) who would prefer to be left alone. If your dog is very reactive around cats this will not be a good fit. I am a stay- at- home mom and my husband works from home, so we can offer a great amount of flexibility with drop-off and pick-up times. Your dog will be supervised 24/7 when in my care. I have a large (2.3 acre), fully-fenced backyard for optimal play! I have three friendly dogs who would love to show your dog all the best sniff spots. We also love going on walks, playing fetch, taking naps, and playing "find it." I've taken a dog CPR class to better understand the warning signs of a dog in distress, and what actions to take in an emergency. Being a pet parent myself, I greatly understand the peace of mind that comes from knowing your dog is safe and happy. Therefore, I will always send you multiple updates, with photos, every day throughout your dogs stay. Please let me know if you have any questions! I'd love to schedule a meet and greet. I can't wait to meet your pup!

Our chill dog, Cooper, loves to have doggie friends for company and playtime! We’ll provide a loving, clean, and happy home for your dog. Daily walks are part of our routine, and we spend lots of time playing in the yard. Your dog will receive plenty of attention, cuddles, and care to feel comfortable and safe. We’ll treat your dog like part of the family, making sure they’re happy, exercised, and well-loved during their stay!
“Claudia went above and beyond to help us out with our young puppy on a busy week when one of us was out of town. She was so flexible with her schedule, coming and caring for our dogs at our home. She even cleaned up our dog run, which was so kind and totally unexpected! This was our second time having Claudia care for our dogs, and we'd look forward to her help again!”
“Excellent experience with using Colean’s doggy daycare. My boy got more than enough playtime in the pack and I really appreciated all of the updates! Colean really cares about all of the animals in her care and it shows. Love the terraced backyard as it gives so much room to roam. Will book when we are in the area again!”
“They were amazing with Moose! We had a last minute need for dog sitting and they were able to accommodate within 30 minutes. We felt quite lucky. They even provided their own leash, water bowl, bed, and treats so we didn’t have to leave his stuff at all. Thank you both!!!”
About: I have over 15 years of experience walking and pet sitting, and I truly love what I do. Whether it’s a quick walk or a longer stay, I make sure your dog gets plenty of exercise, attention, and care. I run my own dog walking and pet sitting business and care for multiple regular weekly clients, along with one-time and occasional visits. Reliability and communication are very important to me, and I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. Over the years, I’ve raised 9 dogs of my own, so dogs have always been a big part of my life. Your pup will be safe, loved, and well cared for with me. Pet care is a big part of my everyday life. I run my own dog walking and pet sitting business, so my schedule is built around the pets I care for. My weekdays usually include regular walks, drop-ins, and check-ins, and I make sure to leave space in my day so I’m never rushed. I plan my week around my clients so each dog gets consistent attention, exercise, and love. This isn’t something I squeeze in — it’s what I do — so I’m able to be reliable, present, and fully focused on the pets in my care. It really depends on the service, but my goal is always the same — keep pets comfortable, safe, and on their normal routine. In my client’s home, I stick closely to their pet’s usual schedule for feeding, walks, potty breaks, and downtime. I spend quality time with them (not just quick in-and-out visits), give lots of attention, and always send photo updates so you know how they’re doing. In my home, pets get a calm, family environment. I make sure they have space to relax, regular potty breaks, daily walks, and lots of supervision. I do slow introductions with my dog and always prioritize safety and comfort. Whether it’s boarding, overnights, or drop-ins, I treat every pet like they’re my own and focus on keeping their stress low and their routine consistent.
About: Cats, dogs, even mini-pigs served through Rover! Cat owner for 15 years, adult and senior with and without dietary restrictions and post-medical care. Dog experience too but not my own. Being patient, kind and understanding is most important with humans and animals. I work from home and set my own schedule for activities and obligations. I don’t overload my schedule so I can give myself and any obligations a fair and dedicated amount of time I introduce myself to animals with trust and kindness and let them introduce themselves and have fun at their own pace! Do they like walks, fetch, cuddling? If your dog is present for doggy day care with me, cats will be restricted to a room for the duration and the dog will have run of the house with supervised time in my backyard in addition to walks
“Alicia was great with providing updates with Dino. He had plenty of enrichment being with Alicia and her daughter. It was great to have him with a fellow dog about his size and such great people to care for him. I would book with her again!”
“Casper loved being at Angie's house playing with other dogs! Angie was very attentive to my boy & his needs. I recommend Angie for dog sitting; where pups can run & play @ her house!”
About: Caring for animals has always been a big part of my life, and it’s something I truly enjoy. I’ve helped neighbors and family with walking, feeding, bathing, and general care, and I’ve also fostered kittens. I’m experienced with pets of all ages and temperaments, including seniors who need a gentler approach. Spending time with animals means a lot to me, and I make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’m a full-time student with a very flexible schedule, which allows me to be available throughout the day for pet care. Whether it’s walks, feeding, or check-ins, I can adjust my routine to match your pet’s needs and keep their schedule consistent. My schedule is especially open during the summer, with even more daytime availability. Whether I’m caring for pets in your home or mine, their safety, comfort, and routine are always my top priority. I take the time to follow your instructions closely—from feeding schedules and walks to playtime and any medications—so your pet feels secure and well cared for. During walks, I prioritize leash safety, stay aware of our surroundings, and choose calm, pet-friendly routes. In your home, I’m respectful of your space, keep things tidy, and ensure everything is secure while you’re away. For boarding and daycare, I offer a calm, structured environment with plenty of attention and supervision. I have a small fenced yard for safe outdoor time, and I’m happy to take dogs to a nearby dog park if requested. I’m mindful of each dog’s comfort level and energy, and I tailor care to match. I provide consistent photo updates for walks, meals, medications, and playtime so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is to offer dependable, thoughtful care that gives you complete peace of mind—and helps your pet feel safe, relaxed, and truly at home.

I don’t believe you can “spoil” an animal because they’re our babies! Let’s take care of them the best we can together.

About: i have 3 animals as of writing this. 1 senior dog, 1 kitten and 1 cat. they all have wildly different personalities and health needs which i have no problem meeting at all. my pit needs diet restrictions, and my late german shepard coyote mix needed gentle emotional help as she had trauma from her past family, my male tuxedo kitten needs to learn to chill because hed set off a bomb then eat trash if he could, and my runt calico is very picky about what she eats and when you can touch her. all of this i happily handle as i pride myself on knowing animal body language and making sure they get the best care they can based on what they need. I am a full time university student so my schedule will change 2x a year BUT i am very flexible despite that. I make time for my own animals so i can absolutely make time for another’s animals to put your mind at ease. I provide my bets with necessary diets they each need, comfort they all need or want, play they need or want, and do my best to read body language to figure out something i cant immediately tell. I always have food and water out, multiple beds and blankets everywhere for them to sleep, and multiple treats to give when I come home to them.

I'll be their "Aunt Holly"! And I promise I will take care of them like they are my own.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs/puppies since I was ten years old. I would take care of my neighbors dogs and my dads coworkers dogs/puppies as well. I am currently taking summer classes online and have all day to play and take care of your dog/puppy. Most of my attention will be towards him/her. I have a high fenced balcony which is spacious. My apartments also have a doggy spa and a place for them to run and play. But I like having them inside my apartment and don’t mind if they get on the couch.
“We had Kristen house sit for us and take care of our Golden Retriever. She was great - good communication in the planning stages and flexible with our plans. When we were gone she sent lots of photos and updates, which we appreciated. On our return, Kristen had stripped the bed and washed her bedding. Wow! We felt completely comfortable leaving our baby in her care and I wouldn't hesitate to use her again.”

“Matt and Kathryn are absolutely wonderful with our dogs. Never, in all our years of being pet owners, have we taken a vacation without our animals. But we just got back from a week abroad without any concerns for our pups because we knew they were in the very best care. Our dogs miss Matt and Kathryn and their dogs when they go too long between visits. It's so cute to see them get excited when we arrive. Can't recommend them enough.”
“Erica and Ronald were amazing with our dog chip. They took him in tons of walks, went to the park, and gave him lots of love. They treated him as if he were their own. He LOVED Their dog turbo! They got along wonderfully. They sent picture updates multiple times a day which made us feel so comforted. We HIGHLY recommend!”
“Lori is a natural caretaker. She provided so much love and attention to Zara, my standard poodle. I could see how much fun Zara was having through the photogenic pictures Lori sent each day. Lori's 1-acre of land is such a plus for the dogs to run and play. At the end of the stay, Zara and Lori were both sad to part. That speaks volumes about the wonderful level of care your pet will receive while staying with Lori. Book her now!”
“Tatyanah & Everardo did an awesome job with my Pup Isla!!! My Pup is very timid around other pups, but Tatyanah, Everardo, and their pups made Her feel very welcome. I received videos and pictures throughout the time Isla stayed at their home. I asked them for feedback and tips on how I can get Isla more comfortable around other pups. I would definitely recommend them. Isla will be seeing them soon as I plan to bring Isla back! Thank you Tatyanah and Everardo!”
“Erica was amazing with my pups! We received pics and updates throughout their stay. My pups were well taken care of and comfy with Erica and her family. Thank you for taking care of my dogs on short notice too ❤️❤️❤️”
“Acausha did an amazing job caring for our two little pups. I was so worried about leaving them fur eight days but I didn’t need to be. Acausha was very patient with our nervous older dog and did a great job with our energetic younger dog. She even sent pictures regularly throughout our trip. I highly recommend Acausha!”
“Tricia and her family treated Iko like part of the family. She sent me plenty of updates and pictures, Iko looked very comfortable and at home there. Having a senior dog, it’s very hard for me to leave him, but I felt at ease leaving him Tricia. Already planning on booking his next stay with her!”
“This was our first time using Rover and we were so lucky to find Brandy! She took great care of our super anxious dog, Kona. We especially appreciated all the daily pictures and updates which provided us with comfort knowing he was doing well without us. An added bonus was Kona meeting Winston and having a bestie for a few days. We couldn’t have been more pleased with his stay at Brandy’s home. Thank you Brandy and Lt. Dan so much!”
“Marta and her beautiful family took excellent care of our Yogi. We loved all the pictures and video. Seeing my dog happy and well while I’m away puts my mind and heart at ease. Thanks, Marta!”
“We were so happy that Holly was able to stay with Angie and her lovely family while we were gone for 5 days. We are picky when it comes to finding the right place for Holly and we lucked out again. I felt like Angie showed as much love and excitement as we do and let Holly have all the same comforts of home, like letting her up on the bed with her son and even got a Thanksgiving dinner treat. Angie has a large yard for big dogs to move around and let her swim in her pool which Holly loves. Boo Radley may be large but he's the sweetest dog around and Holly enjoyed the company. Angie was also very understanding and accommodating with our schedule, which kept changing, and we appreciated that.”
“At first, I was hesitant because I’ve never left our fur baby with a petsitter before but my worries were put to rest. David is absolutely wonderful! He gives updates,very detailed in asking about Rocky’s routines. He’s highly recommended and we’ll definitely use his services again.”
“Aidni was wonderful. We got updates every day with photos. I was confident that Truman was being well cared for. I would recommend Aidni to anyone looking for a pet sitter. She communicated well and replied to all texts within minutes!! She loves animals and you can clearly see this.”
“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 am new to Rover but not new to pet or house sitting in general. I have sat dogs and cats while family and friends have gone on extended vacations. I am fully background checked (teacher by trade). I love to go on walks and am great with consistency/expectations if your dog is in a training program. I am a teacher who is off for the summer with no vacation plans! I can dedicate a lot of time to checking on your cat or taking care of your dog. Dogs will have the run of the downstairs and opportunities for backyard play during the day but will be expected to stay crated/in pen at night. Feedings happen on the schedule you provide and dogs will get at least two walks a day. Doggos will be treated like they belong in my house. If interested in drop ins for cat care, I will play with your cat, provide pets and head scritches, check on food and water, and remove litter box waste. It is important to me that your pets feel safe and that their routine isn’t disrupted too much. So a meet and greet for us to both feel comfortable about your pet’s care is a must!
“I would leave more than 5⭐️ if it was possible this couple Robert and Andrea took care of my dog as if it was their own. I have an English bulldog. They cleaned his face. They fed him. They made sure he was safe. They sent me pictures of my dog over the four days each night I could see he was safe I will use them again whenever I need them.”
“My dog had a great time with Christopher and his kids! I received many pictures and updates showing how happy and comfortable my dog was and I had 100% peace of mind knowing he was being taken care of really well. It's also nice that Christopher only does one dog at a time so that they get his full attention. Totally worth every penny and I will definitely book again next time I need a rover in San Diego!”
“Evan was great! Our normal dog sitter cancelled right before our planned trip. In a frenzy, I came across the Rover app and gave it a try! Evan accepted our booking request even though we were booking at the very last minute! By last minute, I mean we dropped our dog, Jack, off at his house within 1/2 hour of booking! Evan and his family were very kind and our dog got on well with the other two dogs in the house. We received pictures and updates throughout the stay which made us feel better about leaving our pup with someone we didn’t know. I would book with Evan again!”
“Vicki was great with my 8 month old Aussie pup! He did an overnight stay with her. There was a bit of sorting out of things between my pup and her dog, and she handled the situation like a pro. When I came the next morning to pick up my guy the 2 were getting along like old buds. Vicki knows what she is doing. Highly recommend. Thanks!”
“Michele is the best dog sitter! I could tell they were well taken care of by her and she gave them lots of love! She sent pictures every day and they looked so happy. I will definitely use her the next time I go out of town!”
