She came twice a day for a full week, spending an hour each visit, and was incredibly attentive to our cat’s needs the entire time. She made sure everything was taken care of, spent quality time playing with our cat, and clearly built a great bond with her. Our cat really loved her.

About: I provide dependable, high-touch pet care with a strong focus on safety, structure, and communication. With years of experience caring for dogs through personal, family, and friend settings, I’m comfortable with walks, feeding schedules, playtime, overnight stays, and keeping pets calm and happy in their normal routine. My hospitality management background means I bring a professional, service-first mindset to every booking, including timely updates and photo check-ins. Caring for pets fits seamlessly into my weekly routine because I intentionally build my schedule around being dependable and on time. I’m very organized and make sure each booking has dedicated time for walks, feeding, play, and updates so every pet receives focused attention and consistency. My routine allows me to provide reliable care throughout the week, including mornings, evenings, and flexible weekend availability. Safety, trust, and consistency are my top priorities in both my home and my client’s home. I take time to understand each pet’s routine, behavior, triggers, feeding schedule, exercise needs, and any special instructions before every booking so I can keep their environment as familiar and stress-free as possible. In a client’s home, I respect their space and carefully follow all routines exactly as requested, including walks, feeding times, medications, crate use, and house rules. I always double-check doors, leashes, gates, and entry points to ensure pets remain secure at all times. If caring for pets in my home, I maintain a clean, calm, pet-safe environment with plenty of supervision, fresh water, safe spaces to rest, and structured play and potty breaks. I avoid exposing pets to unsafe foods, objects, or stressful situations and make sure they are never left unattended in a way that could put them at risk. I also provide regular updates and photo check-ins so pet parents always know their pet is safe, happy, and receiving attentive care.
“Yasmin was AMAZING! My cat took a special liking to her. He is often nervous with new sitters, but quickly became comfortable and appeared to be very happy in the regular photos Yasmin shared. Will definitely be booking again!”
“Juliet was amazing with my three cats! She babysat my kittens for the first time I ever left them and she did a great job even though they are a little crazy. She took great care of my home and gave my cats lots of love. Highly recommend and I will be using her again!”
“Ange was amazing. She looked after my two kitties while I was traveling. Every day, she dropped by for 30 minutes, providing the kitties with wet food, handling their litter boxes, giving them company, etc. She sends amazing picture and written updates—reading her updates was one of the highlights of my day while traveling. She is super accommodating and follows instructions very accurately. I totally trusted her and will use her again and would recommend her. The only minor downside is that she sometimes had to miss the regular schedule and come a bit later. It’s not a big deal, but I feel having an exact schedule could be more comforting for the cats. But again, this is a small thing and not a big deal.”
“Jose is awesome! He took care of my cats (Annabelle, Leo, Nash, Teddy, and Raven!) in a last minute pinch. He replaced their litter box as they were down one because it had “broken.” He cleaned the litter box nicely and provided lots of pictures of my little ones! He is very responsive as well which is so important to me. I will definitely be using him in the future.”
“Jessica is AMAZING! She took great care of my precious kitties and sent pictures so that I would not miss them as much. I am so grateful to be able to travel and not have to worry about my fur babies!”
“Tommy did an exceptional job caring for my two fussy cats for 6 days! My cats both need medicine and extra care every day and Tommy was consistent, reliable, and a great communicator. I can tell my cats were well cared for while I was away. Thanks so much Tommy!”
“Tam was super thoughtful, kind, and communicative. She made sure to spend time with the cats and took care of all their needs. We would definitely recommend having her watch your pets!”

About: I’m a lifelong dog owner with hands-on experience caring for a wide range of breeds, from energetic puppies to quirky seniors. I work from home, so I’m able to offer tons of attention, exercise, and consistency throughout the day. Having lived with everything from labs to Pyrenees mixes, I understand the importance of meeting each dog’s unique needs, whether that’s structured walks, gentle senior care, or patient socialization for shy pups. I’m comfortable with big dogs and independent personalities, and my own experience training puppies and supporting older dogs means your pup is in caring, knowledgeable hands.What sets me apart is my lifelong experience caring for a variety of breeds—including puppies and seniors—and my work-from-home flexibility means dogs get real companionship and attention all day. I understand big, independent, and quirky personalities, and I prioritize individualized care, from puppy training to gentle support for older dogs. I take the time to get to know every dog, building trust through patience, routine, and play. Pet care is a natural part of my daily life, not an afterthought. Since I work from home, I’m able to integrate walks, playtime, and check-ins throughout the day—whether it’s a morning stroll, afternoon games in the park, or relaxed evenings together. My routine is flexible, so dogs always get outside for fresh air and exercise and receive plenty of attention between my work sessions. On weekends, I love exploring new neighborhoods, local parks, or heading to the beach—always bringing dogs along for new adventures. Whether it’s active pups needing stimulation or seniors who prefer a calm presence, I adapt my days to make sure every dog feels comfortable, safe, and part of my everyday world. When caring for pets in my home, I make sure they’re comfortable, safe, and integrated into my daily routine—regular walks to nearby parks or the beach, supervised playtime, and cozy rest spots throughout my home. I keep to each dog’s familiar schedule as much as possible, including feeding times, exercise, and any training or medication routines. In a client’s home, I respect their space and routines, making sure pets feel secure in their own environment. I follow all instructions closely, from special diet needs to unique quirks or favorite toys, and keep in touch with updates and photos so owners know their pets are happy and cared for. Most importantly, I treat every dog like they’re my own—with patience, structure, and genuine affection—whether they’re here for a day, a weekend, or longer.
“Mayu loves getting dropped off to Atticia’s for daycare. She’s walked, fed, rested, and loved all day and comes home ready to knock out. I’m also so happy Mayu has a dog friend with Aurora- I think it’s really helped with her manners and socialization skills. Thank you for all you do, Atticia!”
About: I bring a calm, reliable, and highly attentive approach to pet care—shaped not just by helping friends and neighbors, but by raising my own very happy, well-loved Goldendoodle. I understand firsthand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet. I’m naturally detail-oriented, so I stick closely to routines, feeding schedules, and each pet’s unique personality. Whether your dog needs long walks and playtime or a more relaxed, steady presence, I adapt to what makes them feel most comfortable. I’ll keep you updated with regular photos and notes so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is simple: your pet feels safe, happy, and cared for—and you get complete peace of mind while you’re away. Not currently working so available to look after 24/7 and at home most of the time. They’ll be with me a lot of the time! My chilled goldendoodle makes even the most nervous of dogs feel comfortable. I have an unfenced yard so always take the dogs out on the lead for a quick bathroom break back there when needed and then do 2-3 walks a day depending on the dogs needs/weather. I have a very dog friendly home with lots of space to play and then in the evenings it’s cuddles watching Netflix! They’re more than welcome on the bed but can also accommodate a crate if you’d prefer. My guest bathroom is all set up for doggy baths if you’d like a clean sparkly dog on your return :)
About: Hi There, Thanks for your interest in my services. I’m currently the dog dad of a Staffy/Husky mix named Ocean. She is a very good girl- dog and human lover at heart. Ocean is a very loyal companion and friend. I have grown up with pets in my home since a child and truly love all animals. I’m very familiar with animal handling and have worked with puppies, teens and seniors of both cats and dogs. When previously house sitting and boarding for neighbors and friends for the past 8 years I’ve learned that I am a true animal lover and protector with knowledgeable traits on body interpretation and breed familiarity. Home services are so important! Pets are happier and experience less stress when they are home. Diet and exercise routines are uninterrupted. Travel trauma for both owner and pet is eliminated— plus the guaranteed comfort and safety of your family members. I take pride and joy in caring for each and every client individually. I am a full time Pet Caretaker available for daily drop ins and house sittings— with due notice I am pretty flexible and understanding. During boarding or daycare pets will be taken out every 2 hours in groups that best fit their temperament and energy level. Please review 7 day cancellation policy details. A meet and greet will be required for a proper evaluation of your pet. All pets must be up to date on all vaccinations- with proof. Mandatory questionnaire must be filled out prior to scheduled meet and greets to give an accurate evaluation as well as getting every important detail about your pet. My home has a fenced in yard. All pets will be supervised 24/7. Must be crate trained or training. No aggression what so ever, this includes resource guarding of foods, toys, anything. Safety is the number 1 concern always. Pet CPR certified and insured.
About: My name is Dave, A mobile gym for the dogs, and make sure they get more than enough exercise. Generally I do group sessions with pups and have them socialize/play. Although I do 1 on 1 sessions as well! I love dogs, cats, and all animals. I grew up with a half black lab half rottweiler. I'll treat your animals as if they were my own. My availability is open during most weeks. Please contact me with any other question you may have. I’m currently working weekends and have open availability during the week between 10am-6pm. I’ll have plenty of time during the day to take animals on walks to local parks. After going over with the pet owners on their animal/s behaviors, I follow their guidelines on how to take care of the pet/s best. Going on walks, playing in parks, or just keeping the animals company in home.
“Emily is an incredible sitter and we feel lucky to have found her. Our boy is still a puppy and she knew just how to handle him. It’s great to pick him up and see how happy he is and how many fun adventures Emelly has taken him on throughout the day. We really trust Emelly and highly recommend her.”
“Emily and Robbie were great! Really responsive, sent a lot of photos, really made my dog feel comfortable and at home. I will definitely be using them again!”
About: I have had pets in my house for as long as I can remember. Cats, dogs, a bunny, hamsters, geckos, fish, and guinea pigs. I even fostered multiple cats/kittens at a time. I love all the little quirks every dog has and no specific needs are off limits. I also have experience administering meds to dogs and cats. I want the animals to feel love and comfort while with me! I treat animals like family :) I am currently looking for a part time job (hopefully rover!), so my schedule might change. But as of now I am free 7 days a week and any time. I have no pets in my place currently. But I can give your dog walks/potty breaks at any time of the day. The pets are allowed on the couch and in bed if they wanted but if you prefer to bring their crate that’s ok too!

“Jim is extremely responsive and flexible and made me feel at ease. My dog primarily has spent every day with me during the pandemic so it is sometimes hard when we separate. He kept me updated with my dog’s day and sent a video for check-in. Thanks Jim!”
“Tae took just a great care of Archie and it was very obvious that he had such a good time playing with Tae and her lovely Goldendoodle. He was also able to relax with the comfy bed that Tae provided. Will definitely ask for Tae’s help again in future!”

“Owen has been great! I can tell our pup looks forward to seeing him. He provides feedback on the walk and even helps reinforce the training habits we’ve been working on implementing with our dog. It’s fun to see the photo updates from the walk he provides. 5 stars.”
“My 11 year old blind, toothless and admittedly neurotic minpin has very strong “YOU’RE NOT MY MOM” energy. He has failed two dog walkers before Dave, seeing as they couldn’t even get him out of the house because he kept trying to nip their fingers with the few teeth he has left. After reading Dave’s reviews I decided to give it one more shot. Dave blew my mind when he sent me photos of Big Bear out and about, riding shot gun in the car, traipsing around the dog park. My beloved pain in the butt little dog won’t even let some of my FAMILY members take him out, more so since he’s gone completely blind. AMAZING. Highly recommend!”
“Justin was very responsive, professional and got along great with my temperamental senior dog. His flexible work arrangements made it easy to set up a time that worked for both of us. I’ll be booking Justin again soon!”
“Great walkers :)) so friendly and accommodating. I appreciate when a walker does their best to do long distance walks in 30 minutes. In a dream world, I’d love to pay for an hour but just can’t afford it right now, so having a walker that is putting in the effort, means so much. Nothing better than a tired dog!”
“Danielle was amazing! She was on time, sent plenty of photos, and took great care of my dog. She administered all of my dog’s medications with no issues or struggle, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Highly recommend she’s reliable, kind, and clearly great with animals!”

About: I’ve owned senior dogs and rehabilitated stray cats. I love dogs and cats of all shapes and sizes, and I’d be privileged to share that love with your furry family members. I’m available seven days a week for housesitting, and weekends for walks and check-ins. I work full time, so when sitting on weekdays I would be available in the mornings and evenings. As someone who has owned senior dogs, I am capable of administering most necessary medications. I’m also open to sitting more non-conventional pets, like guinea pigs, ferrets, etc. I will just need more detailed instructions on their care.
“Nancy stepped in with short notice to cover for my usual dog walker. She was very responsive and even made time for a meet and greet with my pup before the scheduled week of dog walking. She checked in daily, sent pics and was super detailed in her describing her outings and play with my good boy. I highly recommend Nancy and will definitely be booking with her again.”

About: As a groomer of dogs and cats, I've worked with hundreds of animals of all temperaments. Anxious or shy pets are not a problem! I've also worked to help train service animals of various breeds as well as past training on my late dog who struggled with anxiety related behavioral issues. Large or small, I can handle them all. Counter surfers, timid, low energy, high energy, etc., they all are lovable and can be cared for by me. I never stop learning about animals and will continue to grow alongside them as we adventure together! I have a wealth of knowledge and experience to ensure they have the best time possible while in my care. I'm experienced in medication administering and senior animal care as my cat is a senior who requires medication daily, as well as my late dog who required it as well. I frequently update and send photos of your happy family member(s), and if extra services, special care, or other arrangements are needed I'm extremely flexible!

About: I've had many pets throughout my life and have found their presences to be some of the most genuine and loving in this world. Through my childhood, adolescence and adulthood the moments that have stuck out to me as the most memorable and enjoyable have been shared with animals. From the pets I've had that graced me with their lives, and all the pets I've watched for friends and family — nothing brings me more joy than the animals in my life. I work from home as an online tutor which gives me all day to take care of and play with the fur babies I watch here on Rover. I'm a single mom and share my home with my adult daughter who works as a registered behavioral technician. We are a family of animal lovers and people who genuinely care about the health and well being of all the animals that come into our home. I always ensure no food is left out, no sharp or dangerous items are ever within an animals reach, and am welcoming of nearly every animal into my home. From little kittens, to large pitbulls, I've watched and cared for them all!

“Tyler is a terrific person to leave your dog with. He communicates during the stay, is east to get in touch with, and of course has a very positive relationship with your dog. He enjoys them. I would leave my dog with him and feel very secure he would be in a friendly, safe place.”

“Wonderful experience. Sarah took in our two pups on a last minute booking for the weekend, made sure she had all the details about their care, and sent pictures of how well they were doing. We were confident they were in good hands.”
“It was a pleasure working with Zwany and Leandro. They were very considerate and professional. They asked all the right questions before watching Jane. Jane enjoyed her stay. She took to them and their dog straight away. Jane is a bit standoffish sometimes. We got regular updates and pictures. Very nice people. I would feel very comfortable having them watch Jane in the future.”

“Peyton took great care of my puppy, Luna while I was away for the weekend. She was very reliable and attentive and I could tell Luna was very happy and content to be in her care. She sent lots of photos and updates which I really appreciated, and I’d definitely recommend Peyton to anyone looking for a pet sitter!”
“Our dog sitter backed out at the last minute so I went on Rover just two days before our trip. I read the reviews about Ruya and can attest that they're all accurate. Ruya was fantastic! She responded immediately Once I met her I felt great leaving our dog with them. She was so kind, treated our dog well and sent pictures each day. Our dog didn't want to come home! Will be certain to use Ruya again.”

“John was excellent! He watched my 1 year old American Bulldog for 5 nights, I was very nervous dropping him off becauae it was my first time boarding my baby.

“Had a great experience boarding my Golden Retriever with Christina! From the initial meet & greet I could tell Christina was competent, professional, and caring. Leading up to and throughout the boarding she was communicative and sent multiple pictures daily, so I know my dog had a great time. Drop-off and pick-ups were easy. Overall really pleased with the boarding service and will be boarding with Christina again soon!”
