About: I have over 15 years of hands-on pet care experience, including extensive work as an Emergency & Critical Care Veterinary Technician. I am highly experienced with dogs and cats of all ages, from energetic puppies to senior and special-needs pets. My background allows me to confidently care for pets who require medications (oral, injectable, insulin), post-surgical monitoring, special diets, mobility assistance, and close observation for medical changes. I am trained to recognize early signs of illness or distress and take calm, appropriate action. Beyond medical care, I focus on creating a safe, comforting, low-stress environment for pets while their families are away. I treat every animal as if they were my own and understand how important trust, reliability, and communication are to pet parents. Pet care is something I do part-time to supplement my income, which allows me to remain flexible and attentive to each pet’s individual needs. I coordinate care around the pet’s routine, medical requirements, and comfort level, whether that means scheduled drop-ins, extended visits, or adjusting timing as needed. I prioritize reliability, clear communication, and consistency so pets experience as little disruption to their normal routine as possible Safety, trust, and compassion are at the core of how I care for animals. I approach every pet with patience, empathy, and respect, especially those who are anxious, elderly, recovering, or have medical needs. My background in emergency veterinary medicine allows me to remain calm, observant, and responsive while providing gentle, attentive care in both my home and a client’s home. I focus on creating a low-stress, nurturing environment by closely observing behavior, respecting boundaries, and meeting each pet where they are emotionally and physically. My goal is to provide not just supervision, but the reassurance and comfort pets need to feel safe, cared for, and understood.
About: I am certified veterinary assistant, which has provided me with experience working with a variety of animals exhibiting different behaviors. I have worked with both friendly and aggressive pets. Additionally, I have assisted in first aid and medical procedures, so I am well-equipped to meet any special needs your pet may have. I am currently looking for a better opportunity as a veterinary assistant so right now my schedule is pretty open i am available Monday through Friday as well as weekends if needed I care for two large dogs and two small dogs, ensuring they are well-fed, walked, and engaged, as their well-being is my priority. I will bring the same level of dedication to your pets.
About: Well what I can said. I'm a really outgoing person who likes the outdoors, I enjoy long walks I like to hike, the beach. I like to explore new things. As a new mother I like to take care of details and I go beyond any expectations. I can bathe the dog if it it ok with any person. My house is really small but I know that every dog would feel comfortable staying here. I can feed them any medication if they need any. Over all about my self I really outgoing person that likes to get along with others I'm fun, silly, happy, and I'm also a grown woman with a mind of a child that would love any activity. Please feel free to get to know me. I'm a stay home mom so I have plenty of time to take care of any dog. And play with them. And give them attention. I have a small fenced yard. Where the dog can run around without any inconvenience. And I will also take them for a walk to the park.
About: I have proudly taken in over many dogs in the last couple years from abusive owners, shelters, and streets. I will never be able to see an animal in need and walk away. All they want is attention and love. Innocent creatures deserve the best. I currently work nights and actually have my entire day for side hustles and activities. I would love to spend the day time assisting with animals. My home has a fenced yard and I see it myself with my 1 year old golden doodle how much throwing a single ball can make them happy. These babies just want love and attention . I don’t think that’s a lot to ask for.
“We recently used Sonia for the first time and she did a wonderful job with our boys. She was timely and responsive and more importantly the dogs were in great shape/happy upon us returning home.”
About: I’ve been caring for pets since I was a teenager and currently have a Border Collie and a Russian Blue cat of my own. I’m experienced with both dogs and cats and understand that every pet has a different personality and routine. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, basic grooming, and giving pets plenty of attention and companionship. I’ll treat your pets with the same care and patience I give my own. I have a flexible schedule and can dedicate plenty of time to caring for your pets. I’m available throughout the week for walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and companionship. I’m also happy to work with your pet’s normal routine and schedule whenever possible. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications, and daily routines. I always keep dogs securely leashed outside and pay close attention to their behavior and surroundings. I’m patient with pets and will make sure they receive plenty of attention, playtime, and care while you’re away.
About: I grew up with cats and dogs! I have experience with kittens and puppies, as well as our rescue senior dog. I have occasionally used tricks to get pets to take medication, and I am no stranger to moody pets. I also have experience with pets recovering from various medical procedures ranging from teeth removal to major surgeries. I recently moved to the city! I’m not planning to get a strict scheduled job and prefer the flexibility Rover has to offer, so my schedule is very open. I do not have any personal equipment for handling pets at the moment, so anything needed for the care of the pet must be provided by the client. I am very happy to walk, feed, play with, and just simply spend time with your pets whenever needed! So long as all the necessary care items are provided for me, I can do it!
“Carley took great care of our cat Titan. She not only fed and cleaned for Titan, but also played with him and brushed his hair. He’s such a needy boy and we were super anxious about leaving him at home. But with Carley‘s help, that become so easy!”
“Camryn was great! She’s super communicative, detail oriented, and accommodating. Our extremely shy cat even came out to have some treats and spend some time with her. Will absolutely book with her again!”
About: Hi! I’m an experienced dog lover who’s cared for Golden Retrievers and Border Collies. I offer playtime (fetch, tug-of-war), feeding, and potty breaks — your dog will be safe, happy, and well cared for with me! I work remotely from home as a self employed accountant. I offer a stable, quiet, environment for your puppy and plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m also available all weekend long for extra fun and adventures. I live in a dog-friendly apartment community near the Financial District in Downtown LA., a safe and dog-friendly apartment community with a lot of common area. Plus, being in a pet-loving community means there are plenty of opportunities for your pup to socialize with friendly neighbors!
“Brian has been a lifesaver for me as my cat has been struggling with a kidney infection. He was very kind, compassionate, caring and yet comfortably firm with my cats during his visits. He was always on time and twice adjusted his visit around my chaotic schedule. I really appreciated his flexibility. We had a few schedule mixups with the Rover system, but Brian responded quickly and professionally and thoroughly took care of us. I will definitely be booking Brian again. He is exactly what I hoped Rover would be.”
About: Hi everyone! I’m excited to be back on Rover after taking a break in 2025 🤍 I have experience caring for dogs of all breeds and sizes, both in my home and in clients’ homes. As I return, I’ll be focusing on dachshunds and small breed dogs 🐾 I now have my own pup, Zuko, so I do require a meet-and-greet before booking to make sure everyone feels safe, comfortable, and gets along well. During their stay, your pup will also have lots of fun playing and spending time with Zuko! I provide plenty of communication and photo updates so you can always feel connected and at ease while your dog is with me. Your pup will be treated like family—with lots of love, attention, and a cozy, clean space. I can’t wait to meet your pups! 🐶✨ I have experience caring for dogs at all life stages, including senior care and administering medications (pills and liquids) with patience and care. I’ve also cared for extremely low-maintenance dogs who prefer to lounge, follow me around, or stay home when instructed by their owners, always adapting to each dog’s individual needs and personality. With my own dog, I follow a structured daily routine that includes scheduled meals with measured portions, daily supplements, regular brushing, and consistent exercise through walks and outings. I also incorporate mental enrichment through toys, lick mats, and puzzle feeders. This is the same level of care and attention I bring to every dog in my care, and I look forward to incorporating these fun, enriching activities during their stay with me 🐾 For safety and trust, my home has a small fenced backyard with high fencing, as well as a gated front area for added security. I always follow each owner’s instructions closely and respect every dog’s individual routine. Whether you prefer your dog to stay indoors, go on walks, or follow a specific schedule, I will adjust accordingly to meet their needs. I also prioritize communication and transparency. You can expect consistent updates and photos throughout your dog’s stay, and I always tailor communication to your preference—whether that’s frequent check-ins, every few hours, or a daily summary. At minimum, you will receive daily communication so you always feel connected and at ease while your pup is with me 🐾

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 10, and family and friends have trusted me to walk, feed, and look after their pets. Along with my own dogs, I’ve also gained experience volunteering at the animal shelter, where I’ve worked with dogs of all sizes and personalities. I make sure every dog feels safe, happy, and loved—whether that’s through playtime, exercise, or just being a comforting presence. I am currently a senior in high school and am available for dog boarding on weekends and weekdays from 4 PM onwards. I’m reliable, responsible, and love spending time with pets—whether it’s playing, walking, or giving them plenty of cuddles.

I have one dog of my own who is very sweet and would enjoy spending time with your furry family member. I make sure pets are always supervised, have access to fresh water, and maintain a clean and secure environment. I follow any special instructions you provide and can administer medication if needed, ensuring your pet stays happy, healthy, and safe.

About: I have 14 years of experience taking care of my dog. I practically grew up with him. As I got older I took responsibility over him. Walking him everyday, feeding him and always making sure he had clean water. I also managed to train him when he was older. So I learned that you can teach an old dog new tricks. I have also taken care of my next door neighbor's dog. They have always asked me when then leave for a trip. I currently take care of my brother's small dog. I'm currently not working and have plenty of time. I go on runs in the morning and like to keep active throughout the day. I have a fenced home and nice walking areas nearby. I'll take what a need for a proper dog walk and making sure your pet is happy and safe.
About: I have been the main caretaker, young and old, for all of my family pets my entire life. Just love animals and know how important they are to you. I am retired and have all the time in the world to help you with your pets and love them while you’re away from home. I will walk, feed, water, play and love the pets so you can relax and enjoy yourself stress free. I know the importance of peace of mind.
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Vernon
Dani is hands down the best pet sitter we’ve ever worked with! She has watched our cats multiple times now, and she recently took care of them during a longer trip away. She goes above and beyond every single time, even stepping in late at night without hesitation when an issue came up. Knowing Dani is looking after our cats brings complete peace of mind whenever we travel. She is deeply caring, reliable, and truly trustworthy. We cannot recommend her enough!
Krystal has taken care of my two kitties several times when I have been away on work trips. She is responsive and accommodating and sends me lots of pictures of them. They seem to love her too. I will definitely be requesting her to take care of them again in future.
We interviewed several dog caregivers, but my Saint Bernard, Emmy, immediately connected with Yasmin. Her regular updates, photos, and videos reassured me that Emmy was safe, happy, and loved. Yasmin was attentive, caring, and trustworthy, making the experience completely stress-free. I highly recommend her for loving, responsible pet care.
This is our second time booking with Malia and we’re so happy we found her! Lou absolutely loves her and knowing she’s in good hands makes being away so much easier. When we ran out of cat food, Malia made sure Lou wouldn’t go hungry and when our flight was delayed, she was happy to arrange an extra visit. She’s caring, reliable and goes the extra mile. We couldn’t ask for a better cat sitter! Thank you! 🐾
Chelsea was fantastic! She arrived right on time and took care of everything I asked for — my cats were happy, well-fed, and clearly enjoyed her company. She's incredibly patient and gentle with them, and I could tell they really liked her. I felt completely at ease leaving them in her care. Highly recommend Chelsea to any cat parent!
I had sage watch over my princess for 2 weeks. And wow I cannot compliment her enough. She updated me about how my cat is doing, played with her, fed her well, and was very flexible. My cat loved her so much!! You can also tell she has so much experience by the way she takes care of other pets. She even talked to my cat and kept her company while I was away. Sage also respects all instructions and is very smart + has great memory. HIGHLY recommend and will keep using sage ❤️
Sofia took great care of our two cats while we were away for the weekend, just as she did the first time we booked with her. She took plenty of pictures and gave clear updates that gave us peace of mind while we were away. We would definitely have Sofia look after them again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
