House Sitting in Davenport

“Lupita was great with our two dogs. Our dogs have some special needs and she was fantastic with them and gave us nice little updates on how they were doing while we were gone.”

Kristin S.

“Lara was great. This was our first time leaving a new kitten with someone, and Lara was very easy and relaxed with him...she let him come to her (which he did right away?). Great communication and nice photos/videos to let us see how he was doing.”

Becky L.

“Carolina was responsive, friendly, and left the house in great shape. She sent great photos and Mouse seemed happy and comfortable with her.”

Benjamin & Sierra U.

“I had a very last minute request and Joseph confirmed my booking shortly after I submitted the request. Milo and Cooper seemed to really like him! The only thing I would have wanted was some more pictures, but other than that, Joseph was great. I would recommend him for watching your pup!”

About: I have enjoyed helping my parents and neighbors with animal and house sitting over the years and managed anywhere from 1 - 2 independent pets up to 5 pets at a time (dogs, cats, chickens, rabbits, reptiles). I am currently a part-time student looking to extend my animal care experiences to pets in your home. I specialised in animal behavior while studying neuroscience at the Claremont Colleges and will be very attentive to your animals needs in my care. I also have experience administering topical/oral medications as scheduled. I am continuing my education part-time and available to help mostly afternoons. Please contact me 1-2 weeks in advance for HOUSE STAYS otherwise I am flexible to assist with regular potty breaks, walks, feeding, etc. with 1-2 days notice. When caring for animals in clients homes I will be sure to follow any set guidelines or recommendations provided to me. I enjoy meeting animals energy levels with exercise (walks, outdoor play), toys, training reinforcement, or simply good pets. I will be respectful of you and your animal's space to reduce stress and encourage normal/beneficial behaviors.

“Darrah was communicative, easy going, sent us lots of pictures and updates, and we came home to very happy animals who almost didn’t notice we had been gone.”

“Kivi was amazing with my sweet dog Nala. This was my first time asking Kivi to house sit, and she truly went above and beyond. Not only did she take Nala on great walks at the beach, but she hung out with her in her garden, sent me lots of pictures, and did all the things that Nala loves. I’m always a little nervous leaving my baby behind, but for a second I wondered if she was having more fun with me being away haha. I can tell Kivi is a genuine animal-loved, and she had a very kind and trustworthy nature. What more can you ask out of a house sitting experience?”

“Jasmine was great at dog sitting and caring for Frank over a long weekend. She’s experienced with lots of dogs, is very responsive and communicates well. I would definitely book Jasmine again.”

“David is an excellent pet sitter . He really taking good care of your pet . We are away for 8 days and we are really happy how he took care of our dog Romeo . Everyday he gave us the updates with the pic . We are really really happy and want to book him again in future .”

“Lisa was an amazing dog sitter and house sitter! She gave us daily updates and photos of our doggo. Seeing that she was with Fonsi throughout the day, playing and snuggling, put our hearts at ease while we were traveling. During the two weeks that we were gone Lisa helped water our plants and even called the city when there was an unexpected sewer problem. She really put her heart into caring for our doggy and our home. We were super lucky to have found her and will definitely be using her again!”

“Sofia is the best dog sitter/ house sitter we’ve ever had! She is super communicative and made sure our dog was the happiest pup, playing fetch and lots of hikes! She also tended to our chickens and looked after our home. She also sent us lots of pictures and updates so we knew our pup was having a great time while we were away. Above and beyond! Highly recommend!!!”

“Amanda did a great job taking care of my two dogs up in the Santa Cruz Mountains. She was unfazed by terrible weather and road conditions during her stay. One of our dogs is recovering from knee surgery. She was familiar with the procedure and asked lots of questions. She followed his special care instructions perfectly. She sent lots of photo updates and took the dogs on lots of walks. She also helped take care of my fish after I remembered I forgot to set the fish tank timer. She communicated quickly and effectively and left the house spotless. The dogs were happy and mellow when we returned home. I will definitely ask Amanda for help taking care of my pups in the future.”

About: Hey! Glad to see you here! My name is Morgan, and while I’m new to Rover, I’m not new to animal care. You can see my past experience on the IG account I’m currently building @morgansnugglesyourdog 🐾 If you want someone who aims to understand your pets, respects their routines, is intentional, and takes a thoughtful, behavior-focused approach to care — welcome! I’m a calm, capable sitter who tailors care to your pet’s unique needs, energy level, and emotional comfort. Whether your dog is a mellow senior, a wild child in training, or just your average well-behaved snugglebug, I offer structure, enrichment, affection, and the kind of consistency pets thrive on. I believe all animals deserve to be heard and deserve intentional care and structure. ❌ Things I don’t do: • Dog parks • Chaotic group situations • Handing out treats “just because” • Pushing past an animal’s comfort zone • Ignoring or minimizing behavioral needs ✅ Things I do: • Personalized, temperament-based care • Adventures (if your pet is up for it!) • Daily enrichment and mental stimulation • Intentional structure and calm routines • Respecting your pet’s boundaries and setting healthy ones • All the snuggles (when invited!) I also have hands-on experience with cats, small animals (like guinea pigs and rats), reptiles, and even farm animals like pigs and ducks. If it has paws, claws, hooves, or scales — chances are, I’ve cared for it. When it’s a good fit, I love incorporating dogs into my daily life — whether that’s a nature walk, a car ride to town, or just relaxing outside. But I never take dogs to dog parks or chaotic spaces. If something feels too stimulating or simply isn’t right for your pet, we skip it — no pressure, no push. And if your pup is the stay-home-and-cuddle type? That works for me too. I always ask about behavior, routines, and preferences ahead of time and spend the first day or two getting a read on what your pet is capable of and comfortable with. My goal is to help every animal feel safe, respected, and genuinely cared for in a way that honors who they are. I work from home full time! I have several clients but the type of work allows me to be extremely flexible for your pets! I know while some pets can just hang out while I work, others may need more care, enrichment or a closer eye - I can and will accommodate accordingly. Just let me know what your pet needs ❤️ When sitting at your home I prefer to stick to the spaces your pets are most comfortable in or used to as well as stick to a similar routine. I find this helps with separation anxiety and any confusion the pets may have since their favorite human is gone! If possible, I like to take dogs for a longer walk on the first day to help us bond and help me learn how they behave. For other pets, this may look more like a longer playtime, enrichment activity, etc. I want to make sure they’re as comfortable as possible with me in their space so that first day is important to me!

About: My husband and I love dogs.... when our beloved Yorkie died a few years ago and we retired early from city government, we decided to focus our love on caring for other people's dogs in their homes. We now have several on-going sit relationships in central California and are happy to have so many dogs in our lives that feel like grand babies to us! If you're interested in establishing an on-going relationship with us, to make your dog(s) feel as comfortable as possible when you have to leave town, hit us up! Our preference is to work with 1 or 2 older/more relaxed dogs, that can be left alone for at least 4 hours at a time. We lean towards being home bodies, but we enjoy going on walks/outtings, having play time and lots of snuggles. If we seem like a simpatico match to care for your pup, please reach out for our availability! We have a flexible schedule and can work around your needs/timing with plenty of notice. We enjoy exploring new areas and are happy to have your dogs show us all their favorite spots to hang out! Rather than upend your dog's routine on top of you being out of town, we will come to you! We are willing/able to handle any morning/evening routines (food/water, oral meds, walks, potty needs) and your dog can sleep with us if so inclined.

“Abby was a great sitter for my 8 year old shepard mix. She was responsible, caring, flexible and really made me feel like my sweetie was taken care of. I highly recommend Abby for sits and walks. I'm going to recommend her to my friends and will definitely be booking her again. Thanks Abby!”

“Sue did a fabulous job for us and our dogs. We were very comfortable having Sue house sit. Sue did a wonderful job of making our dogs feel welcome and well taken care of. Looking forward to having Sue in our house again. Already booking for our next time away!”

“River was amazingly helpful and kind! I needed someone fairly last minute and I received a response right away. River communicated throughout the entire visit, sent photos, and said kind things about my pup! This was the first time I used a pet sitter so I wasn’t sure how my dog would react to someone new coming over but they clicked right away! River seemed to know exactly how to handle things and build a connection. Very impressed and happy with the whole experience!”

“Bianca did a great job taking care of our older dog Buddy. He is blind and takes medication twice a day. He needs to be let out regularly for potty breaks, and she did everything we asked of her. Our house was left clean and Buddy was happy and well taken car of when we arrived home.”

Teri M.

“Sara was great, very patient with my dog who was super anxious after we left. She took him on huge walks. She left the house spotless and even left us a delicious batch of homemade granola. Would highly recommend.”

About: Hi, I'm Kaila! I am an animal loving college student with a lifetime of experience in pet care. I grew up with a vast array of animals who often were left under my watch. I have taken care of cats, little dogs, big dogs, and bunnies. All sizes and ages of pets are welcome! I have experience with puppy/kitten care, senior care, cats, small dogs, and big dogs! I'm well versed in (lovingly) tricking pets into taking their medication, ensuring they get proper exercise/enrichment, and cleaning up after them. At the moment I am free everyday aside from Sundays from 8-3pm. I am very flexible and able to meet you and your pets schedule! While I am not able to board your pets at my house, I can care for them in yours. To ensure your pets safety, comfort, and happiness I will take the time to get an understanding of their routine, personality, and any specific rules you have in place. Each pet is different and I take pride in getting to know all their quirks and needs!
