“Monique was very accommodating. I scheduled time sort of at the last minute since I had just found out I was leaving town. And then I got back earlier than expected but she was fine with all of it.”

“Alejandra did a great job with lots of communication and photos. She also was great at navigating any mishaps, like escaping chickens. Would definitely book again!”

“Madelyn did an amazing job looking after our cats when we were gone for Thanksgiving week. She was also kind enough to bring in the mail. The cats were well taken care of. It was a great worry off my mind knowing someone was there to ensure they had food water and treats every day. Would definitely book again.”

About: I have taken care of pets for neighbors, friends, and teachers of mine! I also volunteered at Watermelon Mountain Ranch in high school. I would be honored to be chosen to take care of your companion! I am in the job market, so I am available when you need me! I can take your dog to the park or on a walk during your lunch, or even stay with them during the weekdays. I can carry out any instructions for care that are given. If your dog needs a lot of play and stimulation, I can accommodate! If your animal is low maintenance and prefers to cuddle on the coach, I can bring a book or watch a show.
“Lucy is our go-to to ensure our pups are taken care of when we’re away for an extended period. She takes great care of the dogs and we wouldn’t trust anyone else with our high maintenance geriatric dogs.”

About: I have had several animals over the years. Dogs, Cats, Small birds, Fish and small reptiles. All so very different. Have had curious pups, one who obtained an eye injury from our cat requiring eyedrops. Elderly dogs that have sensitive needs and care. Experienced in administrating minor meds or changing dressings if needed. Had a husky who was an escape artist, very familiar with securing yards, fencing, holes or gates. Became a fast runner too! Paid for boarding for my dogs that I was not pleased about, maybe because mine are a bit spoiled? Animals are not just pets, they are part of the family! I work during the day 8-5pm Monday through Friday. I can check on pets before and after work and any time on the weekends. Able to do night stays if needed. My dogs are crate trained for bed or mischief if it happens. They get switched every 2-4 hrs or so for potty breaks. I don’t leave them outside when weather is extreme (hot,cold or rainy). I don’t play tug a war as Caesar states it’s an aggressive game for dogs. I like to make dogs earn their treats if it’s only a simple sit…😎
“Rhiannon was wonderful (this was our second time working with her) -- our cat loves her! We so appreciated the videos and photos while we were away. Thank you!”

“Geneva was a dream!!!!!!! My cat instantly liked her and she can often be shy with new people. Geneva took such great care of Cocina while I was gone for 2 weeks. She sent photos and videos everyday and made sure my kitty got the best care, brushes and chit chats. I would hire her again!!! THE BEST!!! 6 STARS, if you ask me. :)”


“Joel was amazing with our kitty, Nala, and he went the extra mile in checking in with us while we were gone...not just about Nala, but also things he found askew around the house. We are really grateful for his attention and care. Would highly recommend him to anyone looking for an attentive and caring sitter. We will definitely be booking him again!”

“We hired Levi to watch our cats while gone for 3 weeks out of the country. He did multiple daily checks that involved several tasks, including litter management, feeding, playing, and also took care of our plants. He was easy to get ahold of and is great to work with. Will definitely be using him again.”


About: I grew up surrounded by a family of dogs and cats. Since I was a kid I have owned or taken care of puppies all the way to senior dogs. My 16 year old Brittany Spaniel recently passed away. I had her since she was a month old. I like to think I gave her an amazing adventurous life. Dogs are angels and I love spending time with them. I currently have a full time job Monday through Friday. My hours however are only 7am-2pm. Most evenings are open including weekends. I love being active outside of work so this opportunity fits well. I have a front yard surrounded by a tall adobe wall and locked gate. I have one energetic 3 year old dog at the moment who loves playing and running. I take her to a nearby field where I throw a ball and she plays fetch like crazy. My neighborhood is safe and quiet and my main priority is my dog’s safety.
About: I’ve had dogs of my own since I was 5. I was made to be responsible for any pets I had, so I had to make sure I they got food, water, cleaned up after, played with, walked(once I was 10 I started doing this), gave medication, and gave them baths. I started working for a pet sitting/doggie daycare when I was 22 and Blue Buffalo pet food where I was put through pet nutrition courses. When working with the pet sitting company I did work with reactive dogs often because I have the skills to be able to work with these dogs as I myself had a very reactive dog. I can also work with puppies on basic commands. I am currently pretty open and free to come all days of the week except for Sundays. My preferred time range would be from 9am- 8pm. I will clean up after them, walk, play, cuddle, give bath if needed, administer medication, feed and make sure they have water. If it’s fish I can do tank maintenance and feed. If it’s other animals such as small animals, domestic birds, and non venomous/legal reptiles I can feed, clean enclosures, and socialize.
“Terrance was able to step in at the last minute and come watch my pup for two days. He did a great job and was very responsive. On time. And a pleasure to have watching my dog. I’m definitely going to keep him as a contact for future bookings. Highly recommended.”

“Leslie was so wonderful to my babies. I cannot praise her enough! She helped me when I was in a bind which will not be forgotten. She took pictures of her playing with them with frequent updates, as well. She is definitely worth 5 stars. If there was 6 stars, she would get them!”

About: I have been caring for animals since my childhood and have several of my own. I am a veterinary assistant and am comfortable with animals of all ages and sizes, as well as with responsibilities such as administering medication, walks, special diets, etc. I work and go to school part time. I have the most freedom on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays, but can also periodically check on your pet on the other days of the week. I can do overnights as well. I will work with your pets needs whether that is specific feeding times, a walking schedule, or other routines that you and your pet typically do.
“Skyler did such a great job catsitting for our two kitties!! She was very communicative and sent pictures while we were gone. Skyler made sure she knew how to administer our cats medications before we left, and we felt confident in her with her past experience. I would definitely recommend Skyler to anyone needing a reliable pet sitter:)”

“Our cat really seem to enjoy having someone stop in and visit with him while we were out of town with family. Julie was very respectful of our home, always made sure our house was locked/alarmed when she left after the visit and treated our fur baby really well. She's very nice, a good communicator and was accommodating, not that we asked for a lot. She also agreed to water my plants on one of the visits during the week that we were gone. We even got adorable pictures of our cat on our Rover cards during her visits. We had a really reassuring experience having her as our pet sitter. We highly recommend her and will absolutely be contacting her for our next trip out of town.”
“Sarah did a great job with taking care of my pets. She followed all the instructions and really cared for them. She is dependable and very caring. So glad she is a rover for me and my pets!”

Thank you Kristin for looking after my boys over the holidays! I sincerely appreciate your flexibility as travels are always up to change. I also appreciate that I can keep booking you, I am certain Linus and Fergus are more comfortable with your repeated care.

Tracy was great! She very clearly has behavioral training. My dog has her quirks - she’s a little timid, rarely stops moving, and can be bossy around meal times. Tracy was really patient with her. She let her set the pace in getting to know each other and re-directed and entertained her by playing brain games. She sent me detailed updates and followed instructions the way I would hope someone caring for my dog would. I would definitely recommend her, and will be booking with her again when needed.
Andrea is the best. She is so caring and took wonderful care of my senior dog Gus. He has special needs and Andrea is very mindful of them. She is very organized and communicative. She provides pictures and updates. If you need a great Housesitter look no further!

Arianna went above and beyond to take care of my two cats in an RV in 100+ temps. Normally they are shy with a new catsitter, and they trusted her right away. I booked several months early, and she proactively reached out to confirm. I highly recommend Arianna for her friendliness, concern, communication, and reliability!

Highly recommend. Margaret was great with both my high energy pittie and my super skittish boxer mix. She kept me updated and sent lots of cute pictures. She even went above and beyond by noticing that it was trash day and taking the trash out for me. It’s always stressful leaving my dogs behind while I travel, but Margaret eased my concerns. I would definitely use her again!
