“Olivia was AMAZING with my German Shepherd Husky mix! I felt completely comfortable with her doing all of the things that my dog needs to do in order to be comfortable.”
About: I've had multiple dogs all my life (all shelter rescues of all sizes and temperaments) and cared for them up into their senior years. From unique feeding routines to walks/runs in the early morning, to fetch, tug-of-war, midday potty breaks, and cuddles, I've done it all! I've also raised and fostered several litters of rescue kittens to be adopted, from bottlefeeding to litterbox training and handling practice. I am well learned in cleaning litterboxes, prepping midday snacks, and providing love and attention for kitties of all ages. I provide runs and walks for various dogs several days a week and house-sit on occasion during the summer. I also drop in to play with, feed, or entertain dogs whose families are away for long periods of time during the day. Because each pet is unique, I ensure clear communication of expectations from the pet's family prior to any walking or sitting. I always carefully monitor pets for signs of stress, discomfort, or injury and am prepared to take action in the event of emergencies. I maintain regular communication with pet families when they're out of town (send pictures and updates of their pets) and organize my weekly walking schedule frequently to ensure convenience for both me and the client. As someone with pets and a love for animals, I hold myself to a high standard to make sure every animal is comfortable and thriving with any walk, run, or visit.
“Kelly took great care of our boys and provided daily updates and pictures, which is so appreciated while we’re away and missing our boys. She knows each of their personalities and needs so well. Both boys were well cared for and felt plenty of love while we were away. Kelly also picked up our backyard area, took out the trash, brought in mail, and kept the house in great shape.”
“Jenna cared for our Ruby in our home when we vacationed— Ruby has never been without my husband or I and is anxious around other people. Jenna was amazing! She sent photos and videos of them cuddling, which made me feel so much more comfortable that we left Ruby in the perfect hands! She has also been able to give my husband and I some tips about Ruby’s behaviors that were spot on! If you need someone with a gentle loving touch who can get through to even the most fickle dog, hire this lovely woman. She also took great care of our home.”
“Jenna was absolutely wonderful! Extremely communicative and kept us updated which I really appreciated. She left our home in tip top shape and our pets were very well taken care of. We’ve already rebooked her for her services! 11/10 recommend”
“This is our 3rd time booking Jazmine. I had no doubts during the 3 weeks she was doing 2x a day visits for our 4 cats that she was doing an amazing job taking care of our kitties! She spent plenty of time playing with them, cleaning their litterbox and water fountain, and also went above and beyond with keeping our home tidy while we were away. One of our new cats is really shy but warmed up to Jazmine and started playing! When we had an ant infestation, she was willing to come during the times our pest control could make it so she could help make sure the cats were put away. I’m so glad we found Jazmine and have someone we know we can trust to provide great care to our cats when we’re away! It’s always such a relief coming home with everything taken care of and happy cats. Will definitely continue rebooking, thanks Jazmine!”
“Suhani stayed at my house and took care of my senior dog for 3 days recently. I love the fact that she was very responsible and communicative. She is punctual whenever we scheduled to meet, and let me know when she is expected to arrive at my house on the first day of dog/house-sitting. She texted me daily to keep me informed. My dog, now in his senior years, is prone to overnight accidents. Suhani was very understanding and cleaned up afterwards exactly the way I instructed. My dog was well taken care of, and Suhani left my house in great shape. I highly recommend Suhani and would hire her again.”
“Hernan took excellent care of Bailey, our golden retriever. Hernan was an excellent communicator. He provided updates and photos, walked and played ball with Bailey. He stayed at our home and was an excellent and tidy guest. We would definitely use Hernan again!”
“Marissa provided housesitting and care for our shy cat Maggie—she was wonderful! She knew how to connect with Maggie, and was very responsive and responsible while we were away, sending multiple photos and updates. Maggie seemed to be very comfortable with Marissa, and so were we!”
“Joel took care of my large breed dog in my home over Memorial Day weekend and I am so happy with how everything went. Not only did he accept the job last minute, but he went above and beyond during the boarding, picking up after my dog in the backyard, taking out my trash from the bins in the house, and sending me loving photos everyday. Joel is an excellent caretaker.”
“We appreciate how Allie cared for Whippley. As a senior dog, he has more needs with specific instructions for meds and mobility, and Allie made it easy to feel confident. We were grateful for the photos and updates, and we would work with Allie again.”
“Cheryl was great with my little pups and worked around their schedule- they are early risers. House was clean when I came home and most importantly, the dogs were safe.”
“Holly has watched our pets multiple times— she’s always thoughtful and communicative, and we leave town knowing with certainty that our pets are in amazing hands. When Holly sends photos or videos of our cats, they’re always at ease and doing their favorite activities (playing with their toys, making biscuits, and just generally having a great time.) Thank you so much for another great visit, Holly!”
“Second time using Marina and she continues to be awesome with our kitty Kusama Would highly highly recommend and will use again in the future ! She's amazing”
About: Nothing makes me happier than meeting new dogs and cats! I always feel strong bonds towards new animals and I think I understand and respect animals boundaries well. I’ve taken care of many neighbors and friends animals and I always love doing it! I am very active and outgoing and enjoy running and walking! I am born and raised in Davis and I have recently moved home after completing my masters in the UK in sport psychology! I would love to fill my schedule more by meeting and taking care of new dogs and cats! I am very patient with animals and I am easily flexible with needs of different breeds of either cats or dogs! I’m easy to contact and whatever is needed, I will accommodate to!
“5 star review for Nora, a sitter who was exceptional! Nora was professional and easy to work with. Nora provided excellent care for our dog Olive. In addition, she was an excellent house sitter as well!”
“This was our first time using Rover. Thanks to such a great experience with Christina, we'll be back! She kept us updated on our pups while we were away and made sure we were comfortable every step of the way. I think they're missing her as much as they missed us!”

Jenny is an outstanding pet sitter! She housesat and watched our dog for a week and she made it so easy for us to relax knowing she holding down the fort at home. She sent us detailed daily messages and photos of our pup and she seemed to get our reactive dog and what she needed right away. She took her on nice long walks and we felt confident in her ability to handle the pulling and barking that usually ensues. Jenny was also so great about remembering every little detail about caring for the house and confirmed with us when packages were brought it, garbage cans taken out to the street, etc. Most of all, she seemed to really gain the trust of our dog and we could see from the pictures and videos that she sent that our dog not only became comfortable with Jenny, she seemed to be having fun, looking happy and cuddling up with her new bud. We really could not have asked for a better sitter and would highly recommend Jenny to anyone looking for a trustworthy, highly competent, communicative sitter.
Mya was amazing. I had two other sitters drop out at the last minute. She was responsive and stayed in contact both before the trip and during the trip. My older male cat doesn’t like too many people. He barely comes to me. He came straight to her during the meet and great. My house and animals were very well taken care of. I would gladly book her again if she is available.
Jenna is the best! We used to board our dogs until we got an epilepsy diagnosis for one of them right before a trip and needed to find someone to stay with our dogs for greater peace of mind. She responded promptly and became a life saver! While staying with our dogs we got great daily updates and came home to a clean house and very happy pups. We have 3 dogs, and they all love Miss Jenna! She will be our first choice every time we travel we now.
Rachel's open communication was great. She was upfront with her schedule. There was a misunderstanding due to a booking error in my part, but she remained open to adjusting the booking and doing a meet and greet. I have one senior dog that requires medication and kidney diet. Rachel was able to keep meds and feeding up for us during a trip.
Liz communicated daily about Anika’s routines. She followed the directions for both dog and house care to the “T”. She touched base about her arrival and departure at the beginning and ending of her stay, making the transition for Anika seamless. I certainly would recommend Liz for anyone who needs a person to stay in their home to care for pets!
This is my second time booking with XingYuan and I am very pleased with the care she gave to Koko. She sent me pictures and communicated consistently throughout the pet sitting which was very reassuring given that it was Koko’s first time away from family for several days :)
Mira watched our energetic rottweiler and cats for 2 weeks and did great. She is very sweet and gave me the confidence to leave my house and all my animals, despite having some negative pet sitter experiences in the past. She was quick to respond to my questions, easy to communicate with and asked smart questions. When our senior cat had several urinary accidents in the house, she notified me right away and dealt with it. The house looked tidy and cared for when I arrived home and all my animals were happy. I'd definitely recommend Mira.
Marissa provided housesitting and care for our shy cat Maggie—she was wonderful! She knew how to connect with Maggie, and was very responsive and responsible while we were away, sending multiple photos and updates. Maggie seemed to be very comfortable with Marissa, and so were we!
Ally came to my house to take care of my 12-week-old puppy while I was attending a wedding. She has visited with my puppy before, and when Ally walked into the house, my puppy was overjoyed to see her! Ally is highly attuned to my dog's needs. She plays games, cuddles, feeds, and even trains my puppy. While she was with my puppy, she sent me photos and updates, which were such a comfort! My house was clean and organized when I came home almost nine hours later, and my puppy was happy and relaxed. Ally is a rare gem!
Alina is absolutely incredible. She took such amazing care of our dogs. She went above and beyond by brushing them and even cleaning up around our home before we returned from our trip. She is so sweet and caring and we will absolutely use her again as a sitter. Thank you Alina!!!
