“Dustin took great care of our dog over 4th of July weekend, which is always tough for our little guy. Like many dogs, the fireworks really scare him. It was so relieving to know our pup was in good hands. We sincerely appreciate it!”
“Natalie does a great job working with our dogs and is super communicative and professional. We also adopted a new kitten only a week before our booking, and she was happy to take on the task of monitoring our pets’ interactions as they got to know one another. She’s very thoughtful and kept us updated throughout, so we never worried. Also, she left Project Runway on for our dogs when they were alone, and I thought that was pretty great.”
“Carolyn was a fantastic sitter! We felt very comfortable leaving on vacation knowing our fur babies were with her :) She took tons of photos and you can tell our pets were very happy and stimulated while we were gone. She even taught our Golden Retriever how to solve a food puzzle! We would happily use Carolyn again in the future! Thanks again!”
“Carlos sat for our beloved dog Luna for 3 weeks while we were in Europe. It was such a relief to know that she was well cared for and loved while on our extended journey. We came home to a happy dog and though I told him not to worry about cleaning, the house was immaculate. Carlos kept us informed with pictures and responded promptly to all my messages when away. Carlos is a responsible, caring young man who I will definitely have sit for Luna again!!! I am recommending him to all my friends!”
“Another amazing pet sitting experience with Holly in the books! She took stellar care of my 2 cats and our senior dog. Our dog is a rescue with a history of abuse, and Holly took so much time and care learning what makes our doggo feel comfy. Holly is always communicative and thorough, and it’s an incredible relief to be able to leave town without worry. Thank you, Holly!”
“Criistina, came to visit us first. Then she come back for a day / nite care. She was excellent in following my directions with all my 3 sheperds. She kindly pet my old one and play ball with all of them in the patio. Things in the kitchen she left tide up. Overall and excellent pet sitter, who kept me informed with videos and photos. Every time she sent me a pic or news about my 3 pets I felt relief as a caring person was in my home.”
“Melinda is one of the BEST dog sitters I have ever had! Not only did she take amazing care of Louie, my cranky old pup, she kept me informed about his daily activities and noticed that he was shaking his head and might have an ear infection, which tells me she was extremely aware of his actions. On top of being so loving and caring to Louie, she left my house cleaner than I left it! Melinda is a kind, compassionate and professional, and I am over the moon to have such a wonderful dog sitter!”
“Vanessa took excellent care of my pup and home while I was away. I received detailed updates and lots of pictures. My pup seemed very happy, without any signs of stress when I got home. I look forward to having her back.”
“Andrea did an amazing job with Ollie! Ollie was a little anxious meeting someone new but she was very patient and sweet with her. She’s an excellent dog sitter with a lot of experience. I will definitely be booking with her in the future! 😊”
“Absolutely wonderful! My girl was so well loved, cared for, took her ok so many walks and adventures and was such a great communicator. Thank you Janessa for being amazing!”
“Leaving our dog in Chynna's care was the easiest and most wonderful decision I've ever made. I made a last-minute NYE house-sitting request and not only was Chynna quick to respond and do a meet and greet beforehand, but they were incredibly comforting to my dog during the fireworks. They snuggled and soothed my pup while they shivered and panted, making sure he wZ well taken care of before we got home from our NYE party. Overall, this was a great experience and we will be calling Chynna again to take care of our pup.”
“If I could give 10 stars I would! Not only did Kelcya and Elizabeth take fantastic care of our baby and kept us updated - they left an amazing snippet of Sookie’s behavior while we were gone. Already booking with them again!”
“Elizabeth is beyond the best sitter for my cat “Timber” my fiance and I just moved here and travel a lot for work. We have already booked Liz 3 times first for stop by visits as our fur baby needs special attention for his nose and sinus issues and twice for staying at our place. She is practically family now as our cat loves her visits (even sleeps by her head for stay in visits). Very trustworthy as she sends photos and keeps us in the loop on everything with updates and if she notices something out of the ordinary she lets us know.She is the BEST! I wouldn’t pick anyone else to take care of our lil dude but her. Thank you sooooo much.”
“As always, Joel is the best when it comes to looking after our home, and more importantly, our dog Loki. Loki loves Joel, and is always happy to see him! Joel takes such good care of Loki, keeps him to his routines and follows any special requests we might have. Joel takes great care of our home, always leaving it clean and tidy, and treats our space with respect. We have booked Joel for 3 weeks next year while we are overseas. Thank you Joel!”
“Chloe provided pet/house sitting services for us and we could not be happier with the service provided. Chloe made it a point to send updates on our two dogs regularly, left the house in great shape and was prompt and responsive throughout the visit. We will definitely continue to request Chloe’s services for future needs - the dogs seemed to absolutely love her!”
“Jordan cuddled with my old gal and spoiled her with more walks than she normally gets! He was responsive, sent photos, and she was healthy and happy when I got home.”
About: I grew up with a black Labrador retriever, Benita, we had her for sixteen years. Growing up some of our favorite activities were going on long walks to the beach. In recent years, I have taken care of my friends dogs Archie and baby while they’ve been on vacation and have also lived with two cats. I work from home so I have a fairly flexible schedule. I am available mid day to go on walks and can be accommodating to your pets needs for shorter or longer walks. I live with a cat so my home is set up for cats. I have a litter box and non toxic plants in the home
About: I have had a golden retriever growing up and in 2020 adopted 2 lab puppies. I have a lot of experience with playing, walking, feeding, and just being around animals. Pet care will fit into my daily routine because I have quite a bit of free time that I would like to spend with animals! I care for my pets by walking, feeding, playing, and hanging out with them daily. I make sure to give them attention and a lot of pets!
“Elisa took on a last-minute housesitting booking and did such a great job! She was so loving with my pup and gave her lots of exercise. She sent lots of pictures and was very communicative overall, followed the instructions I left perfectly, and left the house very clean. I will absolutely plan on booking her again, including for drop-ins. Thank you Elisa!”
About: I am an experienced Veterinary Technician who has been nicknamed the cat whisperer. Although cats aren’t my only specialty! I love and care for all animals including; reptiles, insects, fish, and fractious cats or dogs. I am able to medicate your stubborn fur baby’s whether it’s oral or injectable medication, I offer free nail trims if needed while I stay at your home, and I’m able to monitor for any general signs of pain or discomfort and advise if a trip to the Vet is needed. With 5+ years in the Veterinary field and 8+ years of dog walking and pet sitting experience I can promise you your baby(s) will be in good care. During work days I am available to check on your pet early mornings before 7am, mid days around 12pm, and after 6pm. I have 3 days off during the week which will allow me to stay with your pet all day if needed. Trust is earned through gentle interactions and like humans all animals have their own personalities. I am experienced in reading animals body language and identifying if something is wrong. I am experienced in approaching and handling anxious dogs and cats. If extra love and patients is needed then that’s what they will get. I am also able to identify choking, coughing, or seizures and know animal safety very well. Your pet will always be safe with me and will never be in a situation where they will be harmed.

American River Parkway pet parents share their Rover experiences
Andrea was wonderful! She took really great care of my animals while I was away for camping. I have two very energetic dogs and she did great with them. I also have two cats, one who is very shy. I think it’s a testament to Andrea that my shy cat came out of hiding and allowed pets! I will definitely be booking with Andrea again in the future!
Melinda is a fabulous pet sitter. She is super responsible and communicative. She treats our beloved dog and our home with tons of care and respect. Moreover, our dog LOVES her and she makes this anxious boy feel happy and safe. I highly recommend Melinda for all your fur friend needs.
Marianna did a great job house sitting and taking care of my cat, Penny. She provided consistent updates and pictures of Penny. Marianna also left the space tidy and clean. I appreciated her communication and professionalism. Once I had returned from my trip, it was clear Penny was very well taken care of while I was gone. I would highly recommend Marianna! She is an awesome pet sitter 😊
Joel stayed in our home with Loki for a weekend, as always, Loki was very happy to spend time with Joel. We had great communications from Joel including lovely photos! Which always reassures us that our boy is doing ok!. Joel is always very respectful of our home and leaves it clean and tidy. We highly recommend Joel.to look after your beloved furry friends, weve booked him again for September for a longer stay, and January for a weekend!
Mia was really great with our pups. One of our dogs was very nervous at first and even had an accident when Mia first arrived. We appreciated her being patient with him and cleaning up after him. Mia was also very punctual and kept us updated with photos and messages throughout, which was really helpful.
Andrea was amazing, professional and responsive from start to finish. Andrea reached out in advanced to set up a meet and greet with our two dogs and had a great attitude throughout. It was reassuring to know they were in good hands while we were gone and, while they were happy to see us when we returned, they seemed far better after staying at home while we were gone rather than in the boarding kennel.
Vanessa was so professional and responsive throughout our interactions with her. She took great care of our dog and truly seemed to love her as much as we do! She sent an update every day we were gone. She was respectful of our home and left everything in super clean condition and even watered our garden! Would 100% use Vanessa again!
We are so thankful for the incredible care Ericka provided to our dog while we were away. Our very large dog has anxiety and can be aggressive towards new people, but Ericka handled everything with so much patience, kindness, and understanding. From the first visit, Ericka took the time to build trust and connect with our dog in a calm, gentle way. We received regular updates and photos that truly put our minds at ease. She went above and beyond staying with him during the 4th of July holiday, and her calm presence made all the difference. If you’re looking for a dependable, compassionate sitter—especially for a pet with anxiety—we highly recommend Ericka.
