“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!”

About: I grew up with a lot of pets and currently I have 2 dogs and a cat along with some other animals. I Have a lot of experience petsitting. I started petsitting around the age of 13 and since then have been doing it pretty consistanly for everyone in my neighborhood. I have taken care of animals that have required medical care and so I am experienced with handling medication doses and any other needs your pet might have. I am a college student so I am pretty flexible with when I can come watch your pets. I only have about 1 class a day so your pet would not be left for more than an hour an a half without me checking in on them. I am able to stay as long as needed with your pet and I am able to stay nights so that I'm there with them.

About: I’ve been caring for animals for about six years, and taking care of pets is something I genuinely love. I’ve always felt a strong connection with animals and really enjoy getting to know each pet’s individual personality, routine, and needs. I have experience caring for cats, dogs, puppies, kittens, larger dogs, and multiple pets at once. I also have a cat of my own who I adopted from a shelter after she came from a hoarding situation. She is incredibly sweet, gentle, and full of personality, and caring for him has taught me how important patience, kindness, and giving an animal the space to feel safe can be. I’m especially comfortable with shy or anxious pets and understand that not every animal will immediately warm up to a new person. I’m happy to let them come to me at their own pace while still giving them plenty of attention, affection, and reassurance. I’m also a very active person and love taking dogs on walks, runs, and outdoor adventures, while making sure they get the kind of activity and attention that fits their personality. Whether a pet wants to play and explore or would rather have a quiet day with lots of cuddles, I want them to feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while their owners are away. I’m currently a student, with classes Monday and Wednesday from 2–4 PM and Tuesday and Thursday from 12–2 PM. Outside of those class times, I have a flexible schedule and am generally available for pet care. I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine and make sure they get the time, attention, exercise, and care they need. When caring for a pet in their home, I follow the owner’s instructions and respect their home and routines. I like to have open communication with owners beforehand so I know exactly what to expect, where everything is, and whether there are any important reminders, medications, or emergency contacts. I’m also happy to send regular updates, photos, and check-ins so you know how your pet is doing while you’re away. I want owners to feel comfortable knowing their pet is safe, cared for, and getting the attention they need.
About: I have 2 dogs and have had pets my whole life. I am willing to work with any and all of your favorite furry (or not furry) family and treat them exactly as you would I am free most afternoons and weekends, and am often free for midday check ins as well. I am a student at Chico state and a substitute teacher. I am always willing and excited to spend time with your furry family, and will follow directions exactly. I am confident giving medications, and making your pet feel as comfortable as I can until you come home.
About: With veterinary assistant experience, I provide attentive, compassionate care for pets of all ages, including seniors, while prioritizing their comfort, safety, individual routines, and unique medical or emotional needs. I’m available on weekdays and weekends to accommodate your pet’s routine and scheduling needs while providing attentive, loving care and ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, happy, and well cared for. I care for pets in the comfort of their own homes, where they feel safest and most at ease. I take the time to learn each pet’s unique routine, personality, and needs, providing patient, loving attention throughout every visit. My goal is to give you peace of mind while ensuring your pet feels comfortable, secure, and well cared for in your absence.
About: I’ve grown up my whole life loving my pets. I grew up on a mini farm so I love all animals as big as a horse and as small as a bunny. My current baby is a disabled cat who i love with my whole heart. My heart is big enough for my pets and yours!! I am a nursing student so my schedule revolves around school. Luckily that gives me plenty of free time to care for your pets! I am available most evenings and all weekends. I can provide whatever service you would like for your dog. Any time you want me to take them out, leashed, crated, play times, etc

“Nicole was our first sitter and she was amazing. Our five month old puppy barks and whines when we leave him alone, but Nicole made sure he wasn’t lonely/bored by playing with him while we were gone. Our puppy felt very comfortable with Nicole and didn’t even miss us. She took care of our puppy like it’s their own, by showing constant care and attention whenever our puppy wasn’t sleeping! We got home to a happy puppy playing with Nicole. We’d like to have her sit our dog in the future, and we definitely recommend her!”

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was a little kid. I currently have a senior dog that I have raised from a puppy. I can deal with many types of dogs, from high energy to slow walkers. I have house sat many times for friends and families as well as taken care of farm animals. I am currently a college student at Chico State so I will be fitting in dog walks and check ins with my schedule. I am available Monday through Sunday. I am very careful with any animal and I am good with adapting to their behavior. I am able to keep animals calm and comfortable in any environment they are in.
About: I have grown up with Dogs and cats as a child. Also had bunny’s, reptiles, and gerbils for that matter! LOL! I’ve had the same Beautiful Most Awesome cat named Gizmo for 15 years until October of last year when cancer took him from me! I’m deeply saddened still. And please believe me when I say. “It was the hardest thing I ever had to do or went thru”. He was my best bud and I loved saying hello when I got home but when he was gone it has been my hardest goodbye! I have dog/New baby puppy sit for a good family friend. And learned anlot anbout new puppies and the special care they need! And I love every minuet of it! I also clean and make sure the home is presentable and reasonably ready for their mom and/or Dad to get home so they do not have to worry about cleaning their mess. Or her own. If client is comfortable with that. Then I would do anything that was asked of me! I’m very punctual and respectful and take into account what the client needs not what I think they need. It’s your family member. It’s your house, all you got to do is talk to me and let me know what you need and I will do my best at providing that service. I also have 1 dog named Bella and 2 cats named Abel and Mozart in our family. Update: Bella past from cancer a few weeks ago, and Mozart passed 2 weeks ago due to kidney disease ! We have suffered so much loss in the past 8 months. We now have Abel and Delilah. Delilah is a 6 month old kitten and Abel is a 1 yr old cat! Lots of fun! Please check my pets profile to see pics of them. And let me tell you. This is their house. We just live in it! LOL. Abel is new. I adopted him shortly after some grieving time over Gizmo. And he is just like gizmo. Big personality and very much a pain in my rear. But he’s our child. And he’s so beautiful! Thank you so much for your time in reading this. And don’t hesitate to reach out with any questions. I am a partially disabled person. I have a disease that affects my hips and lower spine, and then a disease that we believe. I contracted through my father‘s service in Vietnam, but don’t worry nothing that’s contagious. LOL. Nothing that is Gunna take me out anytime soon but getting out of the house to go take care of fur babies is the best thing for me. It gives me exercise. It gives me purpose and it gives me the ability to give the love that I have to give away to other members of peoples families. I’m truly honest and respectful, and need more purpose in my life to help other’s, my hips and my Parkinson’s disease will not slow me down. I’m young still at 41 and I will continue to do anything and everything I can to help anyone in everyone that I can. I would like to continue helping by doing this service for you and your family.. And NOTHING WILL keep me from doing anything and everything needed in any case of taking care of your home or your furbaby. unfortunately, I can only take care of people’s homes & their fur babies in their own home, because of my furbabies. Thank you for understanding. I will keep your home in pristine condition. Cat boxes will be cleaned 2 to 3 times a day unless instructed otherwise. I’m very particular about that so your fur babies and your home will be treated with respect and love and cared for by me, which means I will put my all into anything that you need 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: I’ve grown up with many cats and different types of dog's. I had a dog that was 19 years old and have been self training my current dog since I got him. Im currently a student at Chico State so I have plenty of time after classes and school. I have plenty of time to walk and play with your pets after 2pm on most weekdays. I make sure there’s no way to escape or places that can hurt your pet if it gets in those places. I would make sure to be attentive and make sure I know what they’re up to.
“Jocelyn was so helpful in watching our chickens while we were out of town! She was prompt, sent updates with pictures, and did more than we asked for like giving them treats. Thank you Jocelyn!! Would recommend.”

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!

About: We both had a family dog growing up. Trask is very active and loves going on dog walks/hikes. Emiko has cared for dogs throughout college. She also raised her Weimaraner mix dog since puppyhood until her passing at the age of (almost) 14. We still miss her greatly! We can usually arrange to be home full-time between the two of us, so your dog will have the attention your pet needs! We really love dogs. Trask is very good at being your dog's playmate! Emiko tends to say hi to every dog she passes-by. She is also pretty good at reading dog body language since she has dealt with a dog who had some behavioral issues. We try to educate ourselves reading dog training techniques/dog behavior books. If this is your first-time with us, we do require a meet-and-greet at no cost to you. Thank you for understanding. Thanks for looking, and we look forward to meeting you and your dog! We love evening walks but can accommodate more if needed. Just tell us know what the best schedule for your pet is. On the weekend, we are doing something outside whether it's gardening or going somewhere to hike. We would bring your furry along if you feel comfortable. We are also happy to stay around with your pet. If we are at your home, please give us all information we need to keep your pet happy and safe. For any booking, the more information you give us the better. It's important to tell us any reactivity that your pet may have.

About: I have always been lucky enough to have a dog growing up. I have looked after my neighbors pets multiple times as well. I am very comfortable around all types. As for cats I have never personally taken care of any but I do volunteer at the shelter that has both cats and dogs. When I come to take care of, play with, and walk your dogs I will dedicate my time to loving them and treat them as if they were my own. I have one family dog named Charles. He is a Lagotto Romagnolo and he truly is my bestfriend. I am interning at an accounting firm and I work Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday from 8 to 5 pm. I am free to pet sit these days too after 5. Since I sit at a desk all day, I have a lot of energy leftover and love going on walks and playing with my dog in the evening. Hopefully in the future yours too!! I currently have a dog and he is a big part of my life. I love exercising and everyone I do cardio he joins me for my walks. He loves playing fetch so I am used to that. I also just love a pets affection and love. I constantly walk my dog, take him to the dog park (even though all he does is sit in the shade), I feed him every night and give him infinite kisses!
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Barber
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!

Zackary went above and beyond with our dogs. When they were anxious he was patient and sat with them, and they quickly warmed up first visit. One of our dogs anxiety made her not want to eat, he sat down on the ground with so she felt more comfortable and she ate right away. He was great with communication and was so patient and involved every visit. He took the time to go out and play with them every visit. And always made sure they were settled and had everything they needed every time he left a visit. We hands down definitely will be booking with him again. I cannot recommend his services enough, he is truly caring and compassionate with animals.

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.
