“Amanda was great! Her communication was solid from the second I booked her services. She went above and beyond for our two cats. I loved that she sent photos and updates during each visit . She is honest, caring, and will really make sure that your pets are taken care of. Will definitely be re-booking her in the future. Thank you Amanda!”


“Melissa was absolutely incredible. She did drop in's for us when I went back to work and I'm so happy we chose her. She was very reliable and communicative during her visits. I'm so appreciative of everything she did for us. Definitely went above and beyond. Our puppy loves her and I would 100% hire her again in the future.”


About: I have been a babysitter/petsitter for many years. Generally doing pet sitting for the neighbors when they go out of town. I can provide several references. I also volunteered for the Humane society for over a year. I volunteered for the education program which taught children the proper way to handle animals as well as how to approach them. I worked with bunnies, cats, dogs, Guinea pigs and even a little turtle. I am currently working on saving to go back to school. On my free time you can find me reading a book, or looking for an adventure. I love meeting new friends (animals and humans alike). I am new to Auburn, so any recommendations for places to explore would be much appreciated! I look forward to meeting you and your fur babies! Fully vaxxed. I usually am up by 7 and like to go for a walk before it gets too warm, always love a companion. Having lived with 7 dogs at one point, makes pet care basically second nature! I will always treat your fur babies as if they were my own. Plenty of play time and love and cuddles... maybe an extra treat here and there 😉

About: Hello! I’ve been loving and caring for local pets for around 25 yrs. Some pets were young pups and kittens; some were older seniors. I specialize in petsitting at my clients homes. My longest pet sitting job was 3.5 weeks while the owners were in Italy. I have many referrals. I’ve taken care of miniature horses, Friesian horses, and a pig. (We have a lot of rural homes in Auburn area). I’m retired from a construction accounting job. We’re gladly at home most days! My shedule is flexible; if you have an emergency need for pet sitting, I’m your gal. I prefer to petsit at my client’s homes. The animals rather appreciate this. I like to meet the animal(s) before sitting so when I arrive, we have a connection. I give the animals plenty of one-on-one attention. This may include doggy massage to calm them and get to know them. Lots of walks if they like that. Potty Breaks every couple of hours to begin with, as they’re sometimes nervous or have stomach upsets. I’d like to know your favorite names for them, what your routines are, rituals, their favorite things to do. I’ve also stayed with animals after their surgeries to monitor when the owner has to work.

Feel free to reach out with any questions—I’d love to learn more about your pet and their needs! I work remotely and therefore can spend time with your pets at your home. This provides a steady presence for your precious animal(s) while you're away, and also ensures ongoing time to feed, walk, play, and cuddle with your pets. I am a trusted housesitter, having cared for many animals over the years (both my own and others).

“Jeannette is amazing. I have an American Bulldog who just had TPLO surgery. He has a lot of energy and is difficult to keep down, and we need a sitter for when we have to leave. I also have a Boxer puppy, and she was able to manage both of them perfectly. I could not say enough nice things about Jeannette and her services.”

I live in a cute home with a fully fenced back yard. My 4 legged guests will have indoor outdoor access and full usage of all the homes amenities. I am prepared to set healthy boundries for furniture use at your request, otherwise they will have the freedom to be where they feel most comfortable. My schedule is flexible. Im working remotely from home part time. The fur babies in my care are nutured and loved. That's why I'm a Rover. Safety is my highest priority. I have a fully fenced yard, and firmly believe that playtime is an essential part of enhancing the lives of happy healthy fur babies.

About: AKC certified in puppy training, socialization, breeding health and more I have a professional background in dog care through all stages of life. As I have recently lost my two doggos loving and caring for your dog would truly be a fulfilling experience for me. Working with dogs quickly became my passion when I entered the field years ago. I am often acknowledged for my empathy for animals and ability to notice and address medical concerns, skin conditions, allergic reactions and hygiene needs. I specialize in dog whelping, neonatal puppy care. I have vast variety of areas I have become very knowledgeable, and always eagerly continuing education. Dog grooming and training are large parts of my work as well and all of these roles are ones that I truly enjoy doing. Your dog will be treated with compassion by someone with an educated and experienced background. I have a flexible schedule and can work with you given enough notice. I currently work with a couple of kennels helping with care for many dogs of all ages. I love to spend my time grooming and training. I have grown side by side with and often times birthed the dogs I work with. I am incredibly passionate about what I do and am committed to the dogs I work with. Please give as much notice as possible before requesting to book with me as I cannot always guarantee availability. If you do need to reschedule or cancel, please provide as much notice as possible. I own a home on a quarter acre lot with a dog that has served multiple dogs very well over the last almost 15 years. The backyard is dog proofed and provides tons of space for physical activity. I am very conscious of foxtail prevention and ensuring a safe setting. It is incredibly important to me to make sure there is no potential risk of exposure to toxic plants or chemicals. Proper cleanliness and sanitization is a very high priority of mine.

“Nicque took very good care of my senior cat. She was able to earn her trust and give her medications. Nicque provided great communication and photos so I knew my cat was taken care of when I was gone overnight. Will be using her again soon:)”


About: I've been taking care of animals for a little over 5 years including my own animals. I have 1 dog and 1 Guinea pig. I used to volunteer for Mollys Militia which was animal foster/adoption center. During my volunteer hours I would make sure the dogs were fed and had water and were always in good condition living their best life. I am currently looking for a at home job to help with the convenience of staying home with my dog and caring for every other animal that would come into my care. I have a fenced yard that my dog loves to run around in. My dog is friendly towards other dogs. He is also neutered and well trained.

About: I grew up in a home full of 5+ dogs at a single time! I have 8 years of experience in both the child care and pet sitting fields so I am extremely patient. For years I have used Rover myself to receive pet care for my own dog, so I understand the trust you will be putting in me. I will treat your fur-baby as one of my own while you are gone! I’m currently home full-time with my 3 year old son and our 9 year old dog! I have experience distributing medication and will follow your instructions meticulously! We have a home with a backyard for the dogs to play in! Brutus has a lot of toys and actually enjoys sharing them! Potty breaks can be every 0-2 or 2-4 hours, depending on what your puppy needs. Brutus is extremely friendly with different types of dogs but I can also separate them if that is what you request! Since I have a three year old son, I do require meet and greets before I pet sit any new dogs! I also require the dog to be gentle and have no prior aggression towards children. I only watch one dog, or multiple dogs from one home, at a time. I believe that trusting someone to watch your fur babies while you’re gone can be tough so I want to ensure that they have my full attention, love, and care!

About: As someone who grew up on a farm and winery in the hills of Auburn, caring for animals is nothing foreign to me! Since I could walk I’ve been tending to all sorts of animals, cows, horses, ducks, chickens, birds and of course plenty of dogs and cats. I’ve been a groomer, doggy daycare group leader and trainer for going on five years. I am always eager to find ways to help others take care of their furry friends as it’s always been my passion! I’m working part time at a dog resort as a lodging assistant, groomer, and activities leader. My availability for them is Thursday through Sunday 6-3 however I’m taking a step back from the resort due to driving distance. My other days primarily I am participating in nature walks, river days, rock climbing with friends and working on my music! I’m very energetic and like to be constantly moving! Adventurous to the core For my kitty, she has a schedule. 6 am breakfast, 12 pm lunch, 6pm dinner. If she has medication it’s given first thing in the morning. I de shed her about once a week and get her groomed about every 6 months to a year. She is an outdoor explorer so when I’m taking her out I slip on her harness and collar. I have a travel backpack to take her in for larger adventures too. If I’m gone for longer periods of time I keep her in an enclosed area or have someone care for her.

About: I have been a certified dog trainer for 5 years and was a dog groomer for 7 years. I grew up in a family highly involved in dog training, conformation shows, agility, water trials, rally, and obedience trials. I would walk and bicycle not only my dogs but my neighbors’ as well. I have experience giving shots/medication if necessary. I currently work part-time and love to spend my evenings and weekends with dogs! Monday, Wednesday, and Friday I am available after 5pm. Tuesdays and Thursdays are open 3:30 and later. Saturdays and Sundays are open all day. I will treat your fur babies as if they were mine—with the utmost care and respect. Their safety and well-being is very important to me.

“Angela is a phenomenal young lady. Very caring and truly does a fantastic job caring for your fur baby. I could not be happier. My dog was well cared for and was having a great time with Angela while I was away. Thank you Angela.”


“Brandy was the best Petsitter ever! She gave both my rat terrier Annie and my kitty Lucy lots of love and attention, the pictures she took say a thousand words. She is the first sitter I’ve had who truly cares about Lucy and understands my often shy and quiet cat. They were both very happy when we came home, and were obviously well taken care of. The best thing were the detailed notes Brandy sent me, telling me what they did together and how things were going at each visit. I’ll definitely hire her again!”


About: I’ve been helping neighbors take care of their pets since I was 10. My dog is my best friend, and I’d love to meet yours. I currently work part time, and mostly evenings. I have a lot of flexibility with my schedule, which makes this kind of work a great fit for me. I truly love animals and treat them as I would my own. I’m respectful and responsible. *please no properties with horses, I have a severe allergy*

Emma F.
“My dog , T, is a member of the family. I never take him to a kennel when I have to travel for work or go away for the weekend. It is important fir him to stay in the environment he knows. Emma has been taking care of him for me for 6 years. She is trustworthy and loves dogs! When I return from trips , T is always happy and relaxed. Emma is terrific!”


Nicole M.

“Nicole took excellent care of our cat Kitty for a week. She was well organized, neat and left a clean environment for Kitty every day. Enjoyed the photos sent to us.”


Mindi H.
“Mindi is magnificent. My dog Jake recently passed over the rainbow at 17.5 yrs. Mindi took care of him for ten yrs when I would travel. She stayed 24/7 with him at the end. She really monitored his potty and no problems in home. She would give doggy massages, regular play and he loved her. Mindi also sits my cousins dogs 2 teacups. They also adore her both humans and dogs. I can't say enough. Book her.”


Alisa S.
“Alisa watched our home and 2 dogs for a week while we were on vacation. Not only did she keep the place clean, but she took great care of my dogs. She gave them the correct food and vitamins according to their dietary restrictions. She played with them and took them on walks. In addition, she watered plants and brought in any packages we received at our home. I will be hiring Alisa again very soon!”


Debra & Samuel V.
“I've used Rover multiple times for dog-sitting when I’ve been out of town, but my experience with Sam and Debra was by far the best! From the moment I dropped off my dog, Cooper, I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such capable hands. This sweet couple not only gave him plenty of space to explore outdoors, but they also kept me updated every day with photos and details about how he was doing. What really impressed me was how they stuck to Cooper's routine – daily walks, regular meals, and lots of playtime, which I know kept him feeling comfortable and happy. When I picked him up, he was just as excited to see me as always and looked just as happy and healthy as when I left him. Sometimes it can be stressful for our pets in new environments, but Cooper definitely felt right at home with Sam and Debra. I’m so grateful for the care and attention they gave him, and I will definitely be booking them again for my next trip. Highly recommend this wonderful couple!”

Lisa E.
“Lisa is amazing with animals. She has a natural love for them that makes her probably the only person I would feel completely comfortable leaving my beloved fur babies with. She has background as a dog groomer and has had many dogs and cats of her own over the years. She has a vast knowledge and confidence in caring for animals.”
