“It was a short notice but Rosaura was still able to make it! My cats are always happy to see her! Litter is always cleaned and cats are always taken care of! Thank you”
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.
“Excellent care given to our older cat. Ashlee was very attentive to him. She was able to give him his meds and feed him small meals though out the day. She also cared for our other cats as well. Will definitely be requesting her services again.”
“Thank you Cheryl for taking great care of my cats while I was away! Cheryl replied quickly, came over to visit me and the cats prior to my departure and kept me informed as to how my cats were doing while I was away. This was the first vacation that I felt at ease knowing my cats were in good hands. I’ll definitely be using Cheryl again!!!”
About: As a kid, I was always drawn to animals, and I would go out of my way to take care of them. As I grew up, my love for animals only got stronger, and now I'm known for being an affectionate and attentive caretaker to all animals I come across. They say animals can sense a kind soul, and I like to think that's why they always seem to gravitate towards me. I am pleased to inform you that my schedule is open for the entire week, including weekends, allowing us to plan and schedule tasks at our convenience. As an animal lover, I am deeply committed to providing the best possible care for my furry friends. I take great pride in making sure that they are always comfortable, well-fed, and safe. Whether it's ensuring that they have a cozy place to sleep and plenty of toys to play with, I spare no effort in making sure that they receive the love and attention they deserve.

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
“Weilin was great with my kitties! She was professional, responsible, and so caring! I recommend her to every pet parents out there and will definitely come back for her service!”
“Syndney did an awesome job with my fur babies. One of my cats has diabetes and needs his insulin twice a day and she did that with no problem. She was a quick learner and was always on time. Definitely be rescheduling her again when the time is needed. ;)”
“Hailey is amazing. She was running a little late but communicated with me the whole time. Upon arriving to my house she noticed that my streaming service on the tv timed out and she put on a friendly show for my dog to give her comfort and background noise. She even brought a little treat. Thank you Hailey for taking amazing care of our doggie.”
About: About Me, Well I love animals which you already know. I have experience with pets. I volunteer for an Animal Shelter in Stockton, CA I feed water and food to the dogs and cats. I exercise dogs with playtime. Also, laundry duties; and folded stock blankets and towels where they go on racks. I help the staff by organizing the donated food they received and made room for more. Wash out the dog carriers. I have a special skill of forming a bond with pets, also having a tiny skill in basic obedience training that I learned myself. I know I can help train a dog in small steps and or things. I only have done a little training on my pet dogs. If I can communicate with my pets, I maybe can try to do that with others. I am slowly living and enjoying my routine by healing my wellbeing again all by making time. Pets are our family and making time is how. I care for them by providing outside playtime, and interacting with them and their toys. I routinely feed them along with special rewards on and off obedience. I supervise my pets when interacting with others. I am hoping to pet sitter in clients home due to physical accommodations for myself, also my pets are indeed new to social interaction with others pets.
About: Hi! My name is Danica and I am so lucky to have the opportunity to care for your loved ones when needed. I have loved watching over and building relationships with all furry friends since I was a child. My grandparents taught me all there is to making sure our furry friends — ranging from dogs and cats to chicken and bunnies — were well loved during their lives. I’ve had the great pleasure of overnight dog sitting and checking in on friends and families animals, and I believe I can provide the same love and passion for animals to yours! I am a full-time college counselor working from home! I enjoy my breaks and walks in between student calls, so I believe my time and gaps during the day can best fit your schedule. I am flexible with where I work, so I don’t mind keeping your animal company for a few hours before their owners come home :) I would describe myself as a gentle animal lover — making sure your pet has all their needs met and more. I will always honor your needs as the pet owners, and will communicate with you the details of the pet care I provide throughout our time together. I am open to your own knowledge for what is best for your pet and will communicate any suggestions or new activities your pet and I can do!
“Can always count on Helen! She always takes excellent care of our two boys! She is super reliable and always very communicative throughout the whole process! Thank you again we always appreciate you!”
“Dawn did a very good job caring for my many cats in addressing their medical needs (administering insulin and eye drops). She was attentive to all their weird eating preferences (different food/ portions for 3 of my 4 cats), and I appreciated that. I came home to things how I hoped they be and really appreciated her careful care. I look forward to booking with Dawn again.”
August cat parents share their Rover experiences
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.
