About: I have worked with all types of animals, breeds and personality types. I’ve done dog walking/pet sitting for about 6 years and absolutely adore it! I am comfortable with any special needs or unique temperaments. (Most of my experience has been off this app, hence my lack of reviews… I am more than happy to provide references individually!) I’m currently available anytime during the day or night, weekdays and weekends. I can do overnights as well. As long as we plan ahead all should be good! I have a lot of time to stay with the pets in their own home so they will have lots of stimulation and attention! I love taking them anywhere they love, walking around the neighborhood, trips to dog beach, or supervising play dates with their furry friends!
“Jordyn was absolutely awesome!!! I can’t thank her enough for being able to provide drop ins for my bunny on such short notice. I really appreciated her sending me a picture each day and being thorough in making sure my baby was taken care of. She made sure to clean my pet’s water fountain without me asking and I felt great about her watching my girl! I knew while I was gone that she was in safe hands which is the best thing one can hope for in a sitter. I will definitely book with her again in the future if I need care again. Thank you Jordyn!!”
About: I have experience caring for dogs and cats for friends and family, including feeding, walking, playtime, cleaning up, and sticking to their normal routines. I understand how important consistency is for pets, and I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. As a college student, I have a consistent weekly schedule that allows me to dedicate reliable time to pet care. I plan my classes and study hours carefully, which makes it easy for me to provide structured walks, feeding times, and quality attention. I’m responsible and understand the importance of being dependable. In a client’s home, I respect their space and maintain their pet’s normal routine to reduce stress. My priority is making sure pets feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for at all times.
About: I volunteered at Haven Humane Society in Redding for three years, where I gained a lot of experience caring for both cats and dogs. While I was there, I helped clean and sanitize their areas, walked dogs, and spent time socializing with the cats. In my personal life, I have a kitty who is my pride and joy! He does well with other animals and has definitely made my love for animals even stronger. I also had a dog who recently passed away. I had her since she was a puppy and helped train and care for her throughout her life, so I’m very familiar with the puppy world and all the patience and attention that comes with it! I’ve always loved animals and know how important it is to have someone you trust taking care of your pets. I would treat every pet I care for like they were my own and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m currently a student at Butte College, so my schedule gives me plenty of time to care for and spend time with your furry friends! I usually have classes in the mornings, so most afternoons and evenings are free. This gives me lots of time for walks, playtime, feeding, check-ins, and making sure your pets get plenty of attention throughout the day. My schedule is pretty flexible, and I’m happy to work with you and your pet’s normal routine! I know how important it is to trust the person taking care of your pets, so I’ll always do my best to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they’re with me. For boarding, I’ll make sure your pet has a comfortable and safe space in my home, along with plenty of attention, playtime, and potty breaks. I do have a cat of my own who does well with other animals, so I will always make sure everyone is introduced safely and is comfortable around each other. For dog walking, I’ll make sure your dog is secure on their leash and follow any instructions you have for their walks. When caring for pets in your home, I’ll respect your space, follow your pet’s normal routine, and make sure everything is clean and secure before I leave. I’m also more than happy to send pictures and updates while your pet is with me because I know how nice it is to know your furry friend is safe and being taken care of!
“Grace has been amazing! She has been very flexible with drop ins and walks. She is quick to respond and get back you you. Oh and I definitely love the mid day pics of my pup when she walks him!”
“Jocelyn is terrific! We are repeat clients and truly appreciate her professionalism and great communication. (Love her reports of how Bella is doing.) She was very accommodating when we needed to add an extra day to our last request.”
“Our first time using rover and I could not have picked a better or more communicative sitter. Jessica had an unfortunate interaction with my dog. He was frightened and unexpectedly aggressive and bit her while she was harnessing him to go potty. Im mortified that this happened, and hope this doesn't affect her ability to trust other pups. She was great at giving immediate feedback, messaging my emergency contact (because i was out of range of service). Her communication let me know how to prevent an accident in the future. Service was very thorough and appreciated.”
About: I have been taking care of animals since I was young. I am currently trained in walking with dogs with all different levels of personality’s from the butte humane society Right now I am a full time student I am able to work mornings and on most days and I have no classes Friday- Sunday There is only one exit in my house so getting out is not on the table, I have a common grass area with doggy bags for everyone!
“Kassandra was great. She took great care of my boy and kept me updated on his behavior. She was flexible with scheduling when we had a last minute change and gave me great piece of mind while we were away. I’d definitely recommend her!”
“Monisha Met our expectations and beyond she added such a personal touch took care of our animals they were so happy and healthy when we returned home.Monisha called us every morning just to be sure that she honored our instructions and when we returned everything was just as we had left it happy healthy animals I highly recommend her and will be requesting her again should she continue on this path Kodiak,Scooby my Wife & I thank her very very much for her excellent care”
“Thanks to Andy, I was able to enjoy my trip home because I knew my kitties were in good hands. Andy understands the work that takes into caring for an animal and did not take any shortcuts. She spoke with me on the phone before hand, wanted to meet me and my kitties in person to make sure they would like her and updated me throughout the entire weekend. She is polite, professional and a true animal lover who you can trust with your furry best friend(s).”
“She is awesome! Spends time with my kitties and does a wonderful job. One of my cats loves to see her but the other won’t come out for anyone and just stays under the bed. But she leaves him treats next to the bed for him. You can tell she really loves our cats.”
“Lily was so great! She visited our cats, completed all the instructions we left, and sent pics each time she visited. We felt so much peace of mind while we were away that our cats were properly fed and taken care of.”
About: I've been taking care of animals my whole life. My family have had seven dogs, and four cats throughout our life. I also raised one lamb, and two pigs in middle school. Currently, I babysit a puppy, Nola, and check in on three cats, Jarry, Artemis, and Petra. I love animals so much, and you'll see, they love me just as much too. I treat every pet as my own, but I promise not to steal your furbaby hehe. No matter how cute they are. I can teach basic skills like sitting, hand shakes, or spins to dogs. I also have no problem cleaning up messes they may have. I will give lots of pets, cuddles, playtime, attention, and walks when needed. If your baby likes to sit outside but needs supervision, I'll sit outside with them. If your baby likes to lie down all day, I'll read to them. I can adapt to your furbaby's needs. I hope I will have the honor of meeting you and your furbaby! I'm currently in need of a job since I am new to Chico, which makes me available most of the time. I have reliable transportation and can do light commutes around Chico to care for your baby. I always give my babies attention, especially if I'm pet sitting. I give walks to those who need it, I can feed their food on time, I can play with them, and if they get tired, I will happily read a book to them. I can teach small tricks like sit, hand shake, and spin for dogs. I also can do cleaning of any messes they might have made, or light cleaning around the home. I currently do not offer pet sitting in my own home.
About: Growing up my family always had tons of pets, from chickens to dogs so I am well versed in experience taking care of pets! I understand that your fur baby is just that, your baby and I will do everything to ensure they are loved, taken care of and safe while you are off at work, vacations, etc. I was a college athlete so I still keep a fairly active lifestyle with going for long walks and runs and would love to take your fur baby along with! I typically go for long walks and runs and spend time outdoors! I know that dogs need a lot of exercise daily just as do, so I will ensure they are getting an appropriate amount for their age, breed and energy levels. I treat all pets as if they are my own. When I was in college I played softball so I would be gone for days at a time. So I know first hand how difficult/scary it is to leave your loved one in the hands of a caregiver. I can ensure you though while you are away your dog is taken care of and loved just as your care and love them!!
About: I’ve had pets my entire life ( dogs and cats ) and for the past three years, I’ve started caring for others in addition to my own. I have experience caring for dogs with special needs ( senior pets with specific medication schedules etc. ) and of all different sizes and breeds. All of my experience is boarding at the customers house for the pets ultimate comfort. I want to create the best routines for your pets whether its walks, runs, baths, park visits you name it! I currently work part time, but have full availability through the week for caring and watching your pets! ( the only accommodation to my schedule is when I'm at work - longest I would be away from the pet would be 5 hours, as a full work shift.) growing up in Chico, I value the community, Housesitting/ boarding at the clients house, operates on trust and boundaries. Parting from your loved pets for a vacation can be a tricky, as finding the comfortable, trusting fit for a pet sitter might seem precarious, but my goal is to make it as simple and as comfortable as possible. I really want my love for animals to shine through and am super interested in providing any precautionary measures that are needed : obviously a sit down interview - with a résumé and my background in pet care, multiple references, practice, run-throughs of the pets, thorough schedules or needs ( in person or whatever works best ), even walking the pet (with or without owner in advance ) to gain trust of the pet :) etc etc. I am new to Rover and am so excited to expand my knowledge on animal care !!

Viviana was a very reliable and trustworthy pet sitter! She did drop in visits for my two cats while I was out of town for 2 weeks. She was very prompt and completed all visits on time as agreed. She was very flexible and accommodating when I felt that I needed to add additional visits. While I was gone, an issue with ants coming in after the cat food that was being left out suddenly developed and she handled it so well, cleaning up the ants and ensuring the cats had clean food bowls after each visit. I was never worried about my cats while they were in her care!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
