1. Marleen J.

“Marleen was awesome in looking after our two cats and was generally just super pleasant to interact with. She followed everything we asked for and then some for the sake of the cats and was very communicative both over message and in her daily reports/pictures. Highly recommend her services!”


2. Sydney M.
“Sydney has a huge heart for animals and a love of working out….in the words of Hannah Montana it’s the best of both worlds! Also she is the most responsible person I know.”


3. Lily G.
“Lily is a very responsible and loving pet caregiver. She takes great pride in ensuring your pets will be well taken care of. Whether it is providing love or being a great companion to your fur baby, Lily can handle it all. She is amazing, sweet, kind, and caring”


4. Peter T.
“Peter has been watching my Retriever for 8 years. He walks him regularly and feeds him on time. My dog always looks forward to seeing him!”


5. Leilani B.

“She went above and beyond not only to drop in and take care of my cat, but actively update us on any health problems”


6. Blaze M.

“Blaze was amazing! She went over and above with our elderly dog Sam, making both him and us feel comfortable leaving him at home for a week. She always showed up on time for every appointment and spent lots of time exercising with Sam, playing with him, and cuddling him. She did lots of extra things as well, such as brushing him and cleaning his belly when she removed his diaper. She never shied away from the “yucky” jobs. I can’t say enough good things about Blaze and highly recommend her.”


7. Hailey B.
About: I am pretty new to the area and both of my pups recently passed. I have many years of experience caring for my own pets as well as others and I’m really missing being around animals! I work from home 90% of the time with lots of flexibility in my schedule. I can take breaks whenever I need/want to so I have lots of flexibility when it comes to pet care time! While my home is not frequently open for hosting, I’m more than happy to provide care in your home! I have many years of experience with overnight pet care, drop-ins and mid-day walks!


8. Rebecca P.
“We have 2 chihuahuas who are very anxious, and often have a hard time warming up to people. As soon as they met Rebecca, it was obvious that she is very comfortable around dogs, and they immediately took to her! I had no doubts leaving them with her while we went out of town. She texted me updates and photos of them throughout the day, which was wonderful, and they had a great time! Will definitely be visiting with Rebecca the next time we go away...thank you!”


9. Breanna H.
About: I’ve taken care of animals since a young age while being involved in 4-H. I grew up with dogs, cats, bunnies, pigs, goats and much more. I work early mornings and off before noon most days to be able to do anything for them after work, or come before work to feed and go to the restroom. I feed, let out into our fenced yard and make time each day to play with them. At clients home I respect the persons home and leave it how it was left for me, to clean up after the animals if potty accidents happen.


10. Shelby H.

“A+ did a great job! Will definitely rebook for future trips. Was timely, responsive and provided great updates throughout my trip.”


11. Danielle M.

“This was our first experience with Rover and we were delighted. Danielle is professional, resourceful, reliable, kind hearted, and she did a superb job taking care of our cat. She kept clear communication going with us the whole time, which we appreciated. We will gladly ask for her services again in the future!”




12. Chelsea H.

“We couldn’t be happier with Chelsea’s care for our cats, Sol and Luna! From the moment we met her, it was clear she loves animals and treats them like her own. She kept us updated with daily photos and messages, which really gave us peace of mind while we were away. Chelsea’s attention to detail, like making sure their favorite toys were out and giving them extra cuddles, truly made a difference. We highly recommend her for anyone looking for a reliable, loving pet sitter. Sol and Luna give her two paws up!”


13. Ari H.

“Ari is great and took great care of our cats for a weekend trip :)”


14. Alexis M.

“Excellent service very good communication and very accommodating”




15. Angelica P.

“Angelica is a great cat sitter. She was very attentive and caring for my cat Marie.”


16. Rilyne B.

“Honest, caring, careful. Rilyne wanted to get everything right from the first communication to the delivered love and the last message. Respectful, mindful, communicative, timely. My cats were happy! I look forward to booking her again!”


17. Jordan L.
“Jordan is so sweet, our puppy Finn absolutely loves her. She walks him a couple times a week for us. I appreciate how caring she is, and she is also very respectful of our rules with him. She is someone we trust very much.”


18. Kali C.
About: Ive been taking care of dogs since I was 15! I have always loved dogs and pets. I love spending quality time with animals. I have taken care of sick pets as well. I am currently working part time but I can work around that if needed! I work at Rancho Murieta Country Club and I currently attend Folsom Lake College. I have a fenced in backyard and I live across the street from a dog park! Spacious living room but I have a dog of my own as well!


19. Shea H.
“Shea has a heart to care for animals, and will treat your pet like you would want them treated. I would trust Shea to open up my house and care for my pets while I am away. If you are walking your dog and someone stops to compliment your dog then gives your fur baby a good belly rub before wishing you well, that was probably Shea.”


20. Sophia A.
About: Unlike other sitters, I offer specialized skills such as training puppies and providing exceptional care for senior dogs. My experience and dedication ensure that your furry friend receives personalized attention and love, making their time away from you as comfortable and enjoyable as possible. dog sitting fits into my schedule because I start school at 8:30-3:35. i can come over before school starts and take care of the animals and then after school i can come over again and play with them and let them out to go potty. I also have my license so I could always stay the night at the house if that is the case. at my home, I feed and water my dogs when I wake up in the morning I let them go out to go to the bathroom. I play with them in the morning for a little bit before I start getting ready for school. I am willing to do the same for a client if that is what’s needed.
