“Elizabeth was AMAZING with our pets! My Maverick is not the easiest dog to come around as a stranger, but Elizabeth managed to establish a good rapport with him. She took notes during our first meet and greet which went a long way in giving us peace of mind while we were away. We came back to a spotless house, and she provided updates on the pets just the right amount… Not too often and not only when I asked. I am usually very nervous when I spend more than a few days away from the fur babies, but Elizabeth made it so easy to feel secure knowing my babies were in good hands. THANK YOU, Elizabeth! 10/10 will be booking again!”

“Tianyu (Scarlett) was absolutely incredible! From the start, she did a meet & greet with our dog Lola and asked thoughtful questions — setting the tone for just how attentive and caring she is. She house sat and cared for Lola for 5 days, sending detailed daily updates and photos that gave us total peace of mind. She was also extremely responsive whenever we reached out, and when we got home, the house was spotless. Truly above and beyond care — for both Lola and our home! We’d absolutely recommend Scarlett to anyone looking for a sitter who will treat your pet and home with the utmost care. We’ll definitely be booking her again! 🐾”

“Morgan saved us from a terrible situation with another sitter while we were in another country. She came into a situation that we didn’t understand nor did we have visibility to the state of our apartment. It was bad. Morgan worked with us and our dog tirelessly while dealing with a disgusting apartment from our previous sitter. She helped coordinate with a cleaner and she helped coordinate with my friend to check on our dog. She sent endless photos and updates. She was incredibly communicative, thorough, and we truly cannot recommend her enough. If you want peace of mind, choose Morgan.”

“Joy was absolutely wonderful with our dog! This was our first time having a dog sitter come to our home, and Joy made the experience so comfortable and stress-free. I could tell right away that Skye was treated with so much care and love. Joy kept us updated, took great care of her during walks, and was very attentive and thoughtful. We felt completely at ease knowing Skye was in such good hands. We will definitely be rebooking her in the future and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter! 🥰🐾”

“Sejla did a stellar job caring for our 3 cats and puppy during our week away. She is very caring, trustworthy, knowledgeable and professional. She has an innate way with animals, giving them a lot of attention and love. She kept us informed and sent pictures and updates every day which we loved. She cared for our fur-babies and our home like they were her own, and because we didn’t worry our vacation was that much better. Our pets love Sejla and so do we! We will be repeat clients for sure!!”

“Michelle is wonderful!!! She took care of both our pups while we were gone on a family vacation. She provided optimal care, snuggling with our babies and sent pics when out on walks!! She helped soothe my anxiety with prompt texts, I would absolutely recommend her again!!”

“Rachel was fantastic. She started communicating before even arriving which is wonderful because it’s clear she cares. While we were gone she sent frequent photos and updates. Rachel was very thoughtful when taking our dog for walks (cognizant of the neighborhood dogs and owners). Our babies were well cared for and we are so thankful.”

“We’re so happy we met Yumi! She cared for our dog, Oscar, for 9 days while we were away, and we couldn’t have asked for better care. Yumi sent us lots of photos and videos every day and kept us well informed about everything happening at our house—from Oscar’s eating and dog-door routine to mail, garbage, and updates from the dog walker. She was a great communicator, used excellent initiative (even buying peanut butter for Oscar’s Kong!), and never hesitated to ask questions when needed. I always felt completely up to date and reassured about what was happening at home while we were away. We would definitely reach out to Yumi again for our next trip. We highly recommend her!”

“Highly recommend Donna as both a dog and house sitter. My plants did better while I was gone than when I'm at home, the house was perfectly clean, and I got lots of sweet photos during our time away. Donna responds quickly to messages, shows up on time, and was willing to put in the time to get to know our reactive pup. So grateful to have found such a great dog sitter!”

“Michelle was fabulous. She both took great care of our pets and our house. Communication was excellent. We're super excited to have her sit for our pets again in the future!”

“Sometimes he does it in the backyard. Before the walk. I’m really glad to hear he’s doing well. And having fun. I’ll be heading home and arriving around… I can’t remember, maybe around eight or 8:30 PM. But no worries whenever you have to takeoff. He’ll be fine. Thanks again! Talk to you soon.”


“We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter than Jaime! She watched our fur baby Loki for a couple of nights and did an amazing job. She kept us updated with pictures and messages, which really put our minds at ease while we were away. Loki absolutely loved her, and it was clear she treated him like one of her own. We’ll definitely be booking with Jaime again — highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy sitter! 🐾💛”

About: Have been caring primarily for cats and some elder dogs since 2020. Friends, neighbors, and family know I am the go to person for all their pet sitting needs. Currently living at home with my parents and am available 7 days a week and for a wide variety of hours. Devoting my time caring for your pets. Very good at following your instructions for feeding, brushing, as well as litter box refresh and other "accident" clean up. I particularly enjoy the "Playful Activities" part of caring for your fur baby.
About: After graduating from UC Davis this spring, Mai spent the summer in Santa Barbara house-sitting for 165 lb Leonberger with special needs. I cared for him by administering medication, feeding, and walking him daily. I have a senior Chihuahua of my own! Jennifer currently is a cat and dog mom to a 7 year old domestic shorthair who we took in as a kitten & a 2 year old Samoyed! I’ve always had an affinity for animals and loved taking care of them. I grew up with a doberman, german shepherd, and yorkshire terrier. I also had a few fish and hamsters! Unfortunately, they are no longer with us but I would love to continue extending my love for animals to your pets ❤️ Rest assured your fur babies are in great hands with me :) Hi! We’re Jennifer and Mai- animal loving sisters who would love the honor of taking care of your pets! Jennifer work full time remotely but is flexible and can check in on your fur babies weekdays or weekends to drop in on your furry loved ones! Mai is a recent graduate and a lifelong animal lover! With a flexible schedule, she’s available for morning and evening drop-ins making it easy to give your pets the attention they need. I will take great care of your babies in your home (or mine). I have extensive experience with drop ins and will follow your care list as needed :)

About: You deserve complete peace of mind while away, and it should be a vacation for your pets, too. I work from home, have no pets of my own, and only take one client at a time, so your pet is guaranteed a calm environment and my 100% undivided attention. I am the go-to pet sitter for friends and family because I am highly reliable and observant. Having cared for dogs and cats since middle school, I’m deeply passionate about animal wellness. I excel at reading a pet's body language and noticing the small things, allowing me to quickly adapt to their needs and keep them completely comfortable in my home. Since I work from home, looking after a dog fits right into our day. I have plenty of time to hang out and play with your pup, and I am used to doing morning and evening walks, with fetch breaks throughout the workday. I always stick closely to whatever instructions you leave to make sure your dog stays on their usual routine and feels right at home. I mostly care for pets in our own home, where I have a secure, fenced yard and plenty of space inside for them to relax and get comfortable. Because I work from home, they get constant supervision and plenty of potty breaks. Every pet is different, so I am super flexible and always stick strictly to whatever routine, feeding schedule, or rules you have in place to make sure they feel right at home.
“Edison is the best! Easy to work with, professional, and well versed in the area. We trust him 100% with Charlie and being in our home, and Charlie is always happy and tired afterwards. We’re keeping him on our roster, he’s a good egg.”

“Chris was extremely helpful during a time of need for our dogs Sage and Huey! He was dedicated, professional, and took the best care of our two dogs. He even made an extra trip when asked and we are extremely grateful for his help. We would love to work with him again in the future! 10/10 highly recommended!”

Morgan was wonderful. She came through on short notice and from the meet and greet just really put my dogs at ease. She was gentle and compassionate to my old lady who needs help walking her ramp out of and into the house and played with my younger pooch. She also took great care of my two actual pet cats as well as the street kitties that come hang out in the evening. I would love to rebook and felt very lucky to have met Morgan.

My dogs had a wonderful time with Subani and it was nice knowing that they were in good hands. She sent frequent updates, and when I got back, they were sad when she left. I always know that’s a good sign of a wonderful sitter. She got to know my pets so well and I will definitely be using her in the future!

Pratik was a great sitter for our cats Webster and dog Darwin. He stayed at our house and was very responsive, providing daily check ins, sending us pictures when out on walks!! when Webster and Darwin eating. daily exercise as well as extremely punctual and professional. we felt at ease leaving our Webster and Darwin. We will definitely reaching out to him.
We have a very grouchy senior chiweenie, six chickens and a senior goldfish. Mámoo took care of them over a long weekend while we were away and left the house and all the pet equipment spotless, and the pets very happy. From the beginning of the meet and greet, Mámoo paid attention to our pup’s body signals and by the end of it our pup (who usually barks nonstop at strangers for hours) was sleeping next to them. It has never happened before and we were so relieved to leave our special girl in such expert care. Mámoo sent us photos and videos of each pet every single day. It is a rare sitter who can care for so many different pets and really build a rapport with them in such a short period of time. We are over the moon pleased with the care and recommend Mámoo 100% to anyone looking for loving, empathetic care for their non-human babies.

Maria house sat our 10 month old German shepherd puppy for a three day weekend and he was very well looked after and played and cuddled with. We were wondering what to do with our pup when we were traveling since the friends we usually leave him with were also traveling. We found Maria on Rover and she came home for a quick meet and greet at short notice. She and our pup hit it off immediately so that was a big relief for us to leave him with her. She also kept us posted with photos and videos and other updates. Overall a good experience for us and for our pup.

Sophie was nice enough to come meet our dogs before she watched them the first time, making sure she was prepared to take the best care of them possible. She communicated clearly and did a perfect job watching our two pups. She checked in frequently and shared photos of our dogs as well. Sophie is great and would be a great sitter for all pets!

Tianyu was very attentive to our cats' well-being. One of our cats fell ill before we left on vacation and she kept a close eye on her condition. She sent daily updates with pictures and was easy to communicate with. Tianyu took very thoughtful care of our cats, and we will be using her help again in the near future.

Kathy was an absolutely wonderful house and dog sitter! She gave Stetson so much love and attention, and it was clear from the daily updates and photos that he was happy, comfortable, and well cared for while we were away. Knowing he was in such good hands gave us complete peace of mind. On top of taking exceptional care of Stetson, Kathy treated our home with incredible respect. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would wholeheartedly recommend Kathy to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and thoughtful house and pet sitter.

Rachel was simply fantastic! She is super prepared, professional and communicative and we felt very comfortable leaving our two pups in her capable hands. She also treated our house responsibly and left it perfectly clean. We already have her rebooked to sit our pups for two more upcoming trips and there will be many more to come hopefully! Thank you Rachel!
Ava was so amazing with our three pets. She stayed in our home to watch our dog and two cats. I had never left our dog with anyone except family, so I was nervous going in. Ava was so wonderful with all three animals, and sent frequent updates so I didn’t have to worry if they were okay. She handled our stubborn dog and picky senior cats with so much patience and flexibility. Our time away went so smoothly because of how wonderful she was. We couldn’t recommend her more and will be booking her again the next time we go out of town!

Seva was amazing. This was the first time that we used Rover and had someone other than family take care of Chip. Chip is 17 years old and has anxiety when the family is not home. Seva took such good care of Chip and would send pictures and updates throughout her time with him. As we were off celebrating my daughter's wedding, it was great to know that Chip was well taken care of by Seva, who is very experienced with dogs especially older ones. It was one less thing for me to worry about. Thank you Seva!!
