About: I have had pets since I can remember and I have loved every single one of them. I currently have 3 cats 2 of which are around 12 and the 3rd is around 3. As well as 2 dogs who are 8 and 4. They are my babies and I treat them with nothing but love and care. I have also fostered 4 kittens at different times, all finding loving and caring homes I am currently only working one day a week so I have plenty of time to be there for all your animals needs, I have 3 cats, 2 dogs, and a snake of my own that I take care of daily as well as past foster kittens. With my own pets I have had to administer medication and supplements so I am well aware of the responsibilities that comes with those needs. In my home my dogs are indoor and get feed 3 times a day everyday. My cats are indoor/outdoor and come in at night and are trained to do so. I know how to get a cat to come in if they are being a little stubborn as well as getting dogs to go out to use the restroom as needed.

“Jesse let me know when the visit started and then how it ended. Always a little hesitant about having someone else give our boy his insulin injection…the visit went great. He was on time which is important for animals that insulin dependent. Will definitely be booking Jesse again. This gives me a little more freedom to do things at night now.”

About: I've taken care of many pets over the years, most of my life from my own pets to family,friends and neighbors pets. Feeding, Walking, Playing to just hanging out with them and giving them love and comfort. I've taken care of pets that needed special care such as administering medicine, feeding on set schedule for specific dietary needs and giving extra care to those pets who get extreme separation anxiety. I'm currently looking for a Full-time or Part-time recurring gig to those who may travel often for business or pleasure and last minute emergency trips. Drop in visits, Dog Walking and House sitting I am free most days/nights Monday through Sunday. I'm flexible. I will need to care for your pets in your home as I cannot currently offer services out of my apartment. I'm hoping in the near future to move into a bigger space so that I may be able to then offer more services such as overnight care/boarding and day care.

“Great first experience using Rover. Melissa was accommodating and patient with our shy pup. We received frequent updates and had no issues. Would book again!”


About: Studying Animal Science at UCDavis pursuing veterinary medicine. I love animals and have worked with them for over 21 years ranging from small to big household pets to livestock animals. During my free time I love to spend it around animals so caring for them would be awesome. I love going on walks so taking them on a walk with me would be perfect I have learned how to not only be passionate for animal health but also animal care I believe that my experience in veterinary care will ensure that your fur babies are as well taken care of as mine are. I will always practice compassion and care towards animals.

About: My husband and I don't currently have kids, and share an immense love for dogs. Yours would get our undivided attention and love. We're both healthy and enjoy walks (if that's what your dog likes) but also love being lazy and relaxing inside with them too. We're attentive and comfortable administering medicines if needed, and are happy to respect any special dietary needs as our dog has his own unique ones as well. I work full time, but work from home some days and have some flexibility with my schedule. Weekend days are best as we're both home all the time, but we can also help on weekdays. My husband works later and usually leaves for work in the afternoon and I get home a few hours after he leaves, so there isn't a long gap where our dog is alone. I have a fenced yard and a dachshund that is friendly and chill. Our neighborhood is very safe, your dog wouldn't ever go outside unless leashed.

About: I am a dog groomer on the side, I was a Vet technician and have a vet on speed dial. I look forward to meeting you! I’m a full time college student, I have availability to take care of your baby. I’d gladly discuss further more when you book me today! I take care of pets in the house, I feed on your schedule, and follow instructions! I also can water your plants and play with your dogs. I can video chat and text to give you an update!

About: I’ve spent my life surrounded by animals. I currently live with 3 amazing pets and have cared for 4 others who’ve passed over the years. I understand the full range of pet needs, from energetic puppies to senior pets who require a gentler touch. I’ve personally cared for: • Large breeds like pit bulls and huskies • Tiny seniors with medication routines • Cats of all temperaments, from shy to bold • Multiple pets at once, including managing introductions, feeding schedules, and comfort needs I bring a calm, confident energy that helps animals feel at ease. Whether your pet loves to cuddle, needs extra patience, or just wants their belly rubbed exactly 3 times and no more, I’m here for it. My goal is to make your pet feel loved, safe, and totally at home while you’re away. Pet care is my daily routine. I already spend each day caring for my own pets — feeding, walking, playtime, cleaning, cuddling, and making sure everyone feels safe and loved. Adding your pet into that rhythm is a natural fit. Because I have a flexible work schedule, I’m able to give pets regular attention throughout the day, not just quick check-ins. I’m used to balancing multiple pets and making sure each one gets individual care, whether it’s exercise, meds, or just sitting together in a calm space. When your pet stays with me or I visit them, they become part of a routine built around comfort, care, and presence. My home is calm, pet-friendly, and fully set up to keep animals safe and comfortable. I only take in pets I know I can give proper attention to, no overcrowding, no chaos. Every animal gets their own space if needed, and introductions are done slowly and carefully. If your dog is crate-trained and you’d like them to use their crate here, I’m happy to accommodate that. I see crates as a safe, cozy space for pets who are used to them, never as punishment. If your pet isn’t crate-trained, that’s totally fine too. I’ll work with whatever helps them feel most secure. I keep all food, meds, and cleaning supplies stored securely. I never leave pets unsupervised in the yard or near open doors. I follow your instructions closely and communicate openly so you always know how your pet is doing. Most of all, I treat every pet like one of my own, with respect, patience, and care. Whether your pet is shy, playful, anxious, or just needs a quiet spot to chill, I make sure they feel safe, loved, and at home.

About: Ive taken care of many dogs in my life. Ive had two geriatric and disabled dogs that i cared for, i currently have 2 big high energy dogs and one small dog that im very good with. Ive met countless dogs that i connect with and adore aswell. I do have a part-time job so sometimes i wont be able to pet sit, but I have a set schedule a month in advance and am a great planner so there will never be any willy nilly planning. Regardless of where i am, I care for pets by giving them attention when they need it and how they need it. If i need to go with them everywhere it will be done, however they need help and their preferred way of receiving it will also be done.

Adam A.
“I honestly can’t recommend Adam enough. He watches my two dogs regularly while I’m out of town and they came back happier than when I left. One of them is pretty anxious, but somehow Adam just has this calm energy that animals trust. He sends me regular updates and treats my pups like they were his own. When I pick them up, they don’t want to leave and that’s saying something. If you’re looking for someone reliable, experienced, and genuinely loving with animals, Adam’s your guy.”
