“Ana was awesome! She was really positive and asked a bunch of questions to make sure she knew everything she needed to know to take care of our XL puppy. She was super flexible and willing to work with us and kept us well-updated while we were away. We'll definitely reach out to her again the next time we have to travel!”


About: I've done pet sitting, dog walking and animal care with Sacramento's Midtown Mutts and Front Street Animal Shelter. I also foster cats with the SPCA. I love animals because they return love so easily. I currently work full-time Monday-Friday as a school teacher. I'm able to do pet care and house sitting on the weekends. I look forward to caring for your animals. I'm able to follow your families pet care routine. Animals thrive on routines. I will also care for your home as if it were my own. Home is where the heart is.

About: I had dogs for my entire childhood and as an adult, I regularly volunteer at our local shelter to take shelter dogs out for the day to help socialize them, give them love, and to just give them a change of scenery. I would be honored to care for your fur baby! I currently work remotely on Mondays and Fridays, so I have very flexible availability those days so I can fit your pup’s needs. I work Tuesday through Thursday from 8am to 4:30pm, but am fully available afterwards. I have a large fenced backyard with plenty of space for your pup to run around if needed. I am happy to board, so long as your pet is comfortable staying in the yard. We have rabbits in the home, so unfortunately we cannot have dogs indoors.
“Dustin is the best! He is so friendly, kind of like family so you feel comfortable leaving your family pet and can relax on vacation. He watched our cat for us and even sent pictures daily. Will definitely use him for our next get away.”

About: I've had dogs my whole life and I currently have two large (70+ lb) dogs. I grew up with small to medium dogs and before my current pups, I dog/cat sat all manner of dogs and cats from friends and family. I am very detail oriented and attentive when providing care for pets and have a calming presence that pets quickly grow fond of. I have experience with crate training, leash training and giving oral and topical medication. I have created extensive care documents for my own dogs and am happy to follow as many instructions for your pets' care. I'm currently unemployed so I have immense flexibility throughout the weekdays and weekends. I have availability to check in on, walk and house sit your pets. I'm happy to visit your pets and help with feeding, walking or any other specific care you need while you're away. I really enjoy playing with dogs as well and especially if they like fetch! I love to throw and unfortunately my dogs don't have a taste for that so I'm happy to keep your dog exercised. I also like to go on really long walks and sometimes run with dogs if your dog needs more exercise. Otherwise, I'm happy to cozy up with your pet and I can even stay overnight if needed.

“Christina is fantastic! She is a wonderful communicator and she always goes above and beyond (even goes as far as sweeping the space around the litter box and bringing in packages from the front porch :)). She is my go-to for checking on my cats when I'm out of town. I highly recommend her!!”

About: I’ve had all types of animals growing up, dogs with illness, behavior issues, and more as well as caring for puppies and kittens in all their growing and learning stages I currently have 3 cats, I live with my parents so we all vary the responsibilities but I handle more delicate issues like injuries, nail clipping , and slight grooming when needed. I’m a student at sac state and I’m unavailable only on Tuesdays and Thursdays but we can make anything work. I prefer to come to a clients home as I have 3 cats but could manage clients cats in my room where I can provide a safe comfortable space away from my cats at all times. Outside in our fairly large and safe yard, my cats will stay far away. At clients homes I am comfortable and respectful, I stick to rules and boundaries set by both of us to create a real connection with you, me and your furry friends.

About: I’ve been dog sitting for my friends and family for about 5 years. I love all animals and am not scared or nervous to be around them. I can take care of all ages of dogs from puppies to senior. I’m currently working part-time and am a full-time student but I am still available to take care of and play with your furry friends. I am available anytime from Friday-Sunday. Tuesday/Thursday I am available anytime after 12pm. Monday/Wednesday I am available anytime after 4pm In my home I make sure my dogs are walked 3-4 times a day and have enough outside play. I also always make sure they have food and water. I will make sure the same is done for your fur babies.
“Emily is awesome and took amazing care of my cats! I came home to happy cats and no poopy surprises in weird places from one of the cats like I’ve been having lately. And Emily was willing to check for those surprises during her visits.”

“Audrey is the BEST cat sitter we've ever had! She goes above and beyond with our kitties, and has been really flexible with availability. Super trustworthy and just the absolute sweetest. Highly recommend!”

“Natalie was fantastic! She was professional, communicative, and timely. Natalie sent photos and videos from her visits and kept us posted throughout. We definitely recommend Natalie!”

“Karli was amazing! It was my first night away from my boy Bob and I wasn’t sure how he would feel about it, but Karli visited him multiple times, sent pics and videos, and made me feel so much better about being away. I will definitely book with her again!”

“Jazmin was a great pet sitter for my baby girls while I was away on a last minute business trip! She was super attentive and had excellent communication when she came to visit. Definitely recommend booking if you need someone to swing by for a few days!”

Avondale pet parents share their Rover experiences
We basically never leave our dogs and even take them to work daily so it's hard not to worry. Lorna was amazing with our dogs! She was able to get Ripley and Reagan to eat separately, filled water, picked up poop but most importantly (Gave our dogs LOVE and PETS!) Lorna even sits down on the floor to cuddle and boy did our dogs look happy! We highly recommend Lorna!

Jazmin was so amazing!!! Truly incredible person with so much care for my sweet girl! Took her time coming to meet her beforehand and even fed a churu. I felt immediately comfortable with leaving the keys with her knowing she would be taking great care of her! No hesitation to book you again Jazmin and recommend you to everyone. Thank you!!

Andee was a total lifesaver this weekend. We got stuck in Chicago for an extra day due to flight delays and she was willing to do a few extra check ins with our pup last minute. It was so relieving to know that she was taken care of while we got our travel sorted.

This was my first time using Rover and so far Alice has been amazing! I was very nervous to invite someone into mine and my pup Kylo’s home that we didn’t already have an established relationship with, but Alice made us feel so comfortable. She answered ALL of my questions, addressed my concerns, and was courteous enough to come for a meet and greet prior to drop in visits. We had our first drop in visit and Kylo seemed to be at ease with her and looked so happy in his pictures! I am planning to book again for multiple services. Thank you Alice!

Julia is extremely professional! She showed up exactly on time, and kept me in the loop for her drop in visit with our huskies. We’re so grateful to know that we can count on Julia when we have to be out of the house for longer than usual, it really lets us enjoy outings while knowing our pups are well-cared for ❤️

Mia was amazing with my dog this past week over Thanksgiving. She gave very specific updates and was always on time. She also followed all the little instructions in order to keep my dogs routine the same while being gone. I would strongly recommend her to anyone!
