“Yoo Jee is the best! She took excellent care of our pets and home! One of our bathrooms flooded unfortunately while we were gone and she took care of everything. We will definitely hire her again.”

“Lauren is fantastic! She responded so quickly to a last minute request we had, came by the next day to visit the pets for a meet and greet, and then stayed with them the next night while we were out. She is very friendly, punctual, intuitive and easygoing. Our dog was very comfortable with her to say the least, and our cat who is normally quite shy even came out of hiding while she was there. We are grateful Lauren could come by and are looking forward to hopefully having her back soon!”


“Jaclyn was amazing with our fur babies. This was our 1st time using someone other than immediate family when caring for our fur babies while out of town. Her communication made me feel at ease during this process. I would definitely recommend her.”

“Kimberly was absolutely wonderful with our dog. She gave him so much attention and even taught him a fun new trick! We could tell he was happy and well cared for the entire time. As a bonus, she tidied up, and we came home to both a happy dog and a neat home!”

“Carlos took wonderful care of our 8 year old dog and our new puppy on very short notice, and we couldn’t have been more grateful. From the start, he was incredibly thoughtful, asking detailed follow up questions to really understand each dog’s specific routines, preferences, and needs. It was clear he genuinely cared about providing the best possible care. He stayed in our home during the booking and was very respectful of the space, leaving everything clean and well cared for. What stood out most was his availability and attentiveness, especially with such a young puppy who requires constant supervision and structure. Knowing our dogs were getting so much time, attention, and care in their own home gave us real peace of mind. We would absolutely book with Carlos again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable, attentive, and compassionate sitter.”

“Katherine was great. She knew how to comfort our little guy when he got anxious as we were leaving, took great care of him, and continually kept us updated.”

About: Hello, I’m patient, dependable, and genuinely love animals. I treat every pet like my own—ensuring they feel safe, loved, and cared for every moment.thank you I’m a stay at home mom, I’ve recently become bored so I figured I would make a little extra money and get the gratification of loving your pet like I do my own. My dogs and cat are no different than my kids. I love them all the same, just don’t tell the kids, the human ones. .
About: I am an owner of 2 energetic dogs - both huskies! I have always been a huge animal lover since I was a kid growing up in an household full of fur babies and aquatic creatures. I understand the importance of wanting your babies to be safe and well taken care of while you are away. I heard about Rover through a friend who has been an active caretaker since 2019 and she suggested I begin my journey in building great relationships with owners and gain their pets trust and love! I have experience in providing care to dogs of all sizes, cats, Guinea pigs and aquatic babies (fun fact, I’m also a PADI diver!). I am super excited to begin my services and give you and your animals a positive and comfortable experience 💕 I am a full time songwriter with lots of flexibility to watch your fur babies! I will be available to walk your pups, house sit, and or provide drop in visits :) My home is also equipped with a doggy door so access to the backyard is super convenient! I am accustomed to keeping a good eye on my pups and now that they live with their grandparents, I have all the amenities your babies will need for a clean and safe environment. My home is also located in a gated community so taking them out for walks is safe (very little vehicle access!). There is also an off-leash dog park 8 minutes away if ever needed :)
“🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 Truly Exceptional – Highly Recommend Chan! This was my very first time using Rover, and I was honestly a bit nervous. My dog, Slippery, is 5 years old and has a pretty strong personality—so finding someone I could trust was really important to me. I wasn’t sure what to expect, but thanks to Chan, the whole experience went beyond anything I had hoped for. From the very beginning, Chan was warm, professional, and incredibly responsive. He asked all the right questions, made sure to understand Slippery’s habits and needs, and took extra care to make both of us feel comfortable. Slippery can be a little particular, but Chan handled everything with ease and confidence—it was clear right away that he genuinely loves and understands dogs. Throughout the stay, Chan sent regular updates, photos, and messages that reassured me Slippery was happy, safe, and having a great time. When I picked him up, he was calm, content, and clearly bonded with Chan. It felt like Slippery had just come back from his own little vacation. I can’t emphasize this enough—Chan is an amazing sitter. He went above and beyond in every way. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, kind, and truly attentive to your dog’s needs, I wholeheartedly recommend him. I’ll absolutely be booking with Chan again in the future. Thank you so much for taking such good care of Slippery!”

“Leah was great! She was available fairly last minute for me after a cancellation, came over before our booking to meet my pup, and sent pictures throughout the sit. Would definitely use her again!”

About: Since I was a child, I cared for many animals and pets on my family's farm, and in the last 15 years in LA, I've had my own pets and all my neighbors and friends come to me for pet care while they are out of town! I work as a part-time plant science consultant, I am a mom of a 10-year old human and an 11-year old doggy, I have a flexible schedule and love to be active, so pet care fits in nicely! I have a secure and fenced in back yard and many comfortable spaces for dogs all around the house. Cats are not a good fit in our home, unfortunately.
“Audrey was so accommodating with this short notice booking, and thoughtfully provided many regular updates and photo checkups on Fig throughout her time caring for her.”

“Thank goodness for Adam. After our initial pet sitter fell through at the last minute for a holiday weekend Adam was available on a moments notice to watch our dog and two cats and even do a meet and greet beforehand as well. He’s was responsive, reliable and constantly sending updates and pictures. So we knew we left our pets in good hands. We returned to a clean and tidy home and happy and safe pets and we couldn’t be more appreciative. We would definitely book Adam again.”

“Alexis did a great job taking care of my home and my cat. She is reliable and communicative, and made me feel confident that Luna was taken care of while I was able to enjoy a weekend away. I returned to a happy, healthy pet. Alexis also always leaves my home a little neater than she found it. I will definitely book with her again.”

About: I grew up with mostly dogs, but also ended up with three cats. I’ve pet sat for family and friends. But more recently have dog sat while my clients were on vacation. They were senior dogs who needed medication and some extra love and care. I’m currently an afternoon nanny 2pm-6pm on Week days. This will allow me to do early mornings and midday visits or walks. I am open to evening visits as well. My weekends are some what flexible, with enough advance notice I am free to visit or petsit if schedule permits. If I’m going to walk your dog or do a drop in on your kitty. I”ll make sure that I arrive promptly, take them for a walk or check on kitty, feed and give them attention (if they want it it) and provide update. I’ll make sure to be respectful of your space and privacy. When I sit for a family I can do drop ins or spend the night. I’ll walk, cuddle, keep your pet company, and feed them until I have to be at work in the afternoon. I”ll come back after and get back to the routine with walking, feeding, playing whatever your pet may need. I’ll make sure to clean up after my visits and respect your home.

About: As a proud owner of a 2 year mini goldendoodle that trained myself, I understand the importance of patience, consistency, and loving care. I have experience in daily pet care, walks, playtime, and basic training, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. My goal is to keep your furry family member happy, safe, and comfortable while your away 🐾 I work remotely which allows me to be available throughout the day and meet your pets needs, maintain their routine, and ensure plenty of care and supervision. My flexibility also makes it easy to accommodate different schedules and last minute requests when possible. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important trust and reliability are, and I treat every home and pet with the same respect and care I would expect for my own. When caring for pets in a clients home, I focus on maintaining their normal routine so they feel comfortable and secure in their familiar environment. I can carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding schedules, walks, medications?l, and any special needs. I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, and affection while keeping their space clean and safe. I also provide regular updates, photos, and communication so owners can feel confident that their pets are happy and well cared for while they are away.
About: I'm a dog handler at East Valley Animal Shelter, including supporting fearful and timid dogs. I have some experience training shelter puppies and my own puppy in basic obedience, tricks, and house training. Most of my experience has been with smaller dogs (<40 lb), but I have also handled dogs up to 140 lb outside the shelter! I have a firm but gentle approach that lets dogs know what humans expect - while being loved and respected at the same time! (But if you want me to spoil your pup to bits, I'm more than happy to!) As a gay man, pets of all parents are safe with me! 🌈✨️ I have a highly flexible & remote job that gives me plenty of time to care for pups! I can help out weekdays and weekends with walks and house sitting. For house sitting, I can maintain your dog's training and exercise schedule, administer meds, and track how your dog's doing throughout the day for your benefit! The home will be left as it was when I arrived, so you don't have to worry about coming home to a mess. I can administer subcutaneous injections and oral meds. Special needs dogs welcome!

“Georgina was absolutely exceptional while caring for our dog, Kobe, during our 13-day trip. From start to finish, she went above and beyond in every way. She carefully administered Kobe’s medication, followed all of our instructions to the letter, and treated him with so much love and attention—it gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. Beyond pet care, Georgina took incredible care of our home as well. She watered our plants, brought in the mail, and managed the garbage—everything was spotless and perfectly maintained when we returned. Her attention to detail is truly unmatched. What stood out most was her communication. She kept us consistently updated with messages and lots of photos, which made being away so much easier. We always felt in the loop and confident that everything was being handled beautifully. Georgina is responsible, thoughtful, and incredibly thorough. We feel so lucky to have found her and she will absolutely be our go-to sitter moving forward. Highly, highly recommend!”

“Will absolutely be using Russel’s services again! He was wonderful with our puppy. He was very attentive in sending updates and being prompt. We highly recommend him.”

Jason was so great! Super great with communication, got along with our dog Tiger right away, and was just so thorough through the entire stay. Our house was perfect when we came back, just couldn’t have asked for more! Great first dog sitting experience with rover :)

Kyle has been walking our girls for about a year now. They love him and he is so great with them. One of our dogs can be reactive with others and he has been so great keeping her calm on walks. This was our first time having Kyle stay over with them while we were out of town. He is great with comunicating and took such great care of all their needs, Our senior needs medication and he was on top of it! Thank you Kyle!!!

To be honest, I was terrified of having a stranger live in our house, so this booking was a big deal for us. We had William stay with our two golden retrievers and cat, as well as care for our outdoor turtle and both indoor and outdoor plants for 10 days. He kept us updated, sending photos of our animals whenever we asked. He took great care of the house and maintained open communication. He always quickly responded to our texts. He is a great housesitter. Most of all, though, he is a true dog lover. I felt confident that my Goldens were being loved and cared for. I will definitely book him again and would 100% recommend to anyone else.
Katie was absolutely great!! She sent updates, asked questions, and took such great care of our two dogs and home! Upon meeting for the first time, both boys instantly took a liking to her which put our minds at ease. Would highly recommend booking with Katie and we will definitely be rebooking in the future :)!

Wow! Carlos was just the best! A total pro who handled my snippy Min-Pin with so much ease and care! Carlos stayed at our house while we were away on a trip and made sure everything was taken care of as if it was his own home. He even watered my plants and an outdoor garden for me AND searched through some papers to help find one I'd accidentally left behind on my desk! A lifesaver for sure and I'm so grateful for the Rover connection to Carlos!
