“Rosaura was awesome! She is very responsible and reliable. Our cat was very happy under her care and even gain some pounds when we came back from our vacation. Will definitely use her again!”
About: Though I am not well versed in special needs dogs, ones with anxiety I know far to well as my Bella suffers daily. Constant love and affection would be given to ensure your fur babies feel right at home as if you’ve never left. Hello I’m Melissa a newly FT stay at home mom of 2. I homeschool during the morning and have fun by mid afternoon so adding some visitors to my day would be my pleasure! Both my Bombay cat and Deer Chihuahua were rescued. I work with many rescues in the surrounding areas to make sure all strays brought home find their forever homes. I do live in a rental so I do request that they are potty trained! Both my cat and dog are fully house broke and getting up in the night for those midnight tinkle breaks are possible since my dog is a senior and needs to go too. I hope that gives you a little insight to my life and allows you to be comfortable in choosing me as your fur babies mini vaca destination. I have a fully fenced decent size back yard with cameras for lots of room to run and get their wiggles out or just explore and sunbathe. I have a large crate if they prefer some quiet time alone just request you bring their favorite bed or blanket so they have a piece of home to comfort them.
About: I have had puppies to seniors. I have trained all my own dogs and I have 30 years of making sure all dogs have attention and making sure they are all taken care. I go to school in the mornings and free after that and free on the weekends. I can come over before school as well if needed I have a fully fenced yard and have morning and night routines for all my fur babies. And I train my 2 younger ones when I have downtime
“Haley was excellent!! This was my first time using Rover and Haley made the process very easy and straightforward. She was timely and easy to communicate with. She took excellent care of my cat. I highly recommend Haley!”
About: I have been around animals my whole life! I have had dogs, cats, birds, guinea pigs, rats, frogs, and hamsters to name a few animals. I’m working full time and I’d like extra income on the side and this is great since I love animals. I’ve used this app before. Make sure they always have access to water. Feeding them twice a day and going potty several times throughout the day and also play time
About: I volunteer at the Stockton Animal Shelter. Also, I have a Pomeranian chihuahua mix so I’m used to smaller animals. My dog is 14-16 so he’s very old and is becoming more immobile and blind. I’m used to feeding him and helping him around the house. I’m currently working part time so most of my Thursdays, Fridays, and the weekend are completely free. It’s also summer so it’s still sunny after 4 or 5 when I get off of work. I’m very respectful in others space. I will be very attentive to the rules that you lay out because you know your dog best
About: I have been an animal lover since as young as I could remember. I can provide your furbaby with a loving home away from home. I have experience of 4 years fostering with local rescues and the Stockton Animal shelter. I primarily have worked with cats and kittens ranging from 4 weeks to adults cats. I also have a cat of my own, who loves the company of other cats and kittens. In my home there is a dedicated space to play and have access to a cat tower that overlooks a bird feeder for bird watching - this is an HUGE hit with my own furbaby. This room also is quiet and provides a calm and secure room for furbabies that may be a bit more on the skiddish and shy side. Ensuring that your pet is comfortable and safe is my biggest concern. I am second grade teacher and while the some days are longer than most, I will have plenty of time to dedicate to your fur baby! I have a cat of my own and playtime is an important part of our day. I will be sure to give your baby plenty of pets and cuddles. Ensuring that your furbaby is stress free and safe are my #1 concerns. You furbaby, will be able to roam freely and explore my home as if it is their own, unless you prefer otherwise. I also have an office space that doubles as a room dedicated to my cat that is filled with toys for enrichment!
“Tyler did a great job with my cat Ginny. She is an elderly cat, but loves to snuggle and be petted. She was quite happy when I returned after 10 days. I also appreciated the pictures from each visit—thank you Tyler!”
About: I've taken care of dogs since I was 11. I'm a cat mom and i really enjoy to spend my time with your lovable pets! neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk and feed their pets. let me enjoy being with your pet and share this love together! I'm a Master student who is now focusing on her program . I'm flexible for time changing and I'll be happy to help :)🥳 Healthy pet food is required. Pets, like people, require food that specifically fulfills their nutritional requirements. Both dog and cat diets are made to satisfy the nutritional requirements of the respective species. Importantly, they have quite different food requirements. And I can give that to our furry family members with affection! I'll ensure that your pets have access to clean water at all times. Giving pets a secure, comfortable home is part of giving proper pet care. Pets need to use the restroom frequently, and I'll be there to assist them if they do. I'll see to it that your pet exercises frequently.
“Second time with Maya and my fur babies had more time with her this go around and they love her! She’s the sweetest with my cats and I couldn’t ask for a better sitter (:”
“Sydney was prompt and kind. My puppy had an accident and went the extra mile of cleaning up after her. My girls can be a bit stubborn but she handled them with care and kindness. I’ve never used a pet sitter before for my dogs and this was a very positive experience with Sydney. If she is willing to watch my dogs again in the future I know my girls will learn to bond with Sydney!”

“Daniella did a great job watching our Goldendoodle while we were on vacation. After reading her reviews, I decided Daniella was a great fit for my anxious dog. Our first time booking with rover and overall it was an easy and stress free experience with Daniella.. She checked in on our dog once a day- She was always on time, communicated when needed, sent photos and followed our direction perfectly. We will be booking her again!”

It’s never easy finding great care for your fur babies, unless it’s Brooke! Had to find care in a slight pinch and Brooke saved the weekend and also made sure my dog and cat were in great hands. She made sure to send updates with pictures and felt that was above and beyond of expectations. And also thankful for her attention to detail. Great job, great care, and such a positive experience for Soja and Man-man. Would 100% book again and highly recommend if I or others ever need someone to care for their pets! You rock 🤘🏾
Lisseth was amazing with my cats, Penny and Stormi. She replaced the litter, made sure they were fed, and even left extra dry food out just like I asked. She kept everything in the house exactly as it was, took the trash out, and was thoughtful enough to leave the key under the mat for when I got back. She even noticed small things like running low on trash bags and let me know where she left the clicker in the kitchen. It’s clear she really pays attention and cares about doing things right. I came home to happy cats and a home that felt untouched. I’d absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, detail-oriented cat sitter.
