About: I grew up on a cattle ranch and have been taking care of animals since I was little. Cats, dogs, chickens, sheep - you name it. I love animals and would be happy to care for yours while you're away! I am currently working on graduate research from home and looking for full-time work. My schedule is flexible, and I would love to get out of the house, especially to see your pets! I will ensure the safest, most comfortable environment for your pets. I know routine brings our pets comfort, and I will tailor my visits to their existing schedules, especially maintaining your pet’s normal feedings, fresh water, walks, litter box cleaning, and playtime.
“Jordan was wonderful with my cats! He took great care of them while I was away, and I felt completely at ease knowing they were in good hands. He was very communicative and kept me updated throughout. I think Chloe may have even made a new friend! I would definitely recommend Jordan and would happily have him care for my cats again!”
“Morgan is exceptionally detail-oriented and provided outstanding care for my boys. Her professionalism, attentiveness, and clear communication gave me complete confidence that they were in excellent hands. It was evident that she genuinely cared about their well-being and went above and beyond to ensure they were comfortable and well cared for. I highly recommend Morgan to anyone seeking a dependable, trustworthy, and compassionate dog sitter.”
About: I’m a pet owner myself, so I know how stressful it can be to leave your pet with someone new. I’m patient and really pay attention to each pet’s personality and routine. Whether they’re super playful, shy, cuddly, or prefer their own space, I’ll let them get comfortable with me at their own pace. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, bathing, litter box cleaning, and lots of cuddles if they want them! I’ll also send plenty of photos and updates so you can feel comfortable knowing your pet is happy and well cared for. I’m available anytime and any day during the summer. I have a flexible schedule, so I can spend plenty of time caring for your pets. For morning visits, please let me know in advance! Pet’s safety and emotions are my top priority. In a client’s home, I will follow the pet’s usual routine to keep them comfortable, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special instructions provided by the owner. I clean up after them, make sure they have fresh water, and provide plenty of attention and affection. I’m respectful of the home space and always leave it as I found it. If pets are staying with me, they’ll have a safe, clean, and calm environment where they can relax, play, and feel comfortable.
“I have booked with Dina twice and I am impressed with her level of care! I always get a comprehensive update on my cat and plenty of cute photos. It makes me feel at ease knowing she is well taken care of. Highly recommend!”
About: I've taken care of dogs of every kind since was 10. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and love there fur babies.I worked with dogs that need medical care and strict diets and love to work with every kind. I'll have plenty of time to play love and care for your fur babies! I'm available from Monday through Friday from 8am to 10pm sometimes the weekends I have a fenced yard and plenty of room to keep your fur baby company. I can easily crate your dog if it is very necessary.
“Carmen is just wonderful! She took excellent care of our fur babies and kept us informed with every visit. Took the worry out of being gone so we could fully enjoy our trip!”
“Megan was fantastic with my cat Norman. Norman is a diabetic cat who can be aggressive with strangers when they try to give insulin, so it's often tough to find sitters who can manage him. I was so happy with how patient and compassionate Megan was with him. She was extremely reliable and a great communicator, and was able to make sure he got his insulin on time everyday. I would really highly recommend Megan, you can definitely trust her to take great care of your pet!”
“Sydney showed up at 8am before we left for our day to Disneyland. We acquainted her with our two dogs and they took to her right away.. Sydney really has a way with dogs. They both loved her so much, immediately. Our dog situation isn’t easy. We have a four year-old American bully and a one year-old very energetic pitbull who’s so much fun however, for the time being we’re keeping both dogs separate and Sydney kept both of our dogs, safe & clean, and even though Henny had an accident, Sydney cleaned up everything & was even able to feed her and get her back in her crate safe safely. Our family is so grateful to Sydney for taking such incredible care of our family dogs! Thank you!”
About: My name is Bella, and I'm a UC Davis student with a genuine passion for caring for both animals and plants. Whether you have dogs, cats, fish, frogs, snakes, lizards, or other unique pets, I'm committed to providing attentive care and plenty of play time to help your pets feel safe and comfortable while you're away. At 16, I started pet sitting, which has given me experience caring for a wide variety of animals at all stages of life, from weaning kittens to senior pups. I'm hoping to find part-time pet sitting work for those living in the city of Davis. If you have any questions, please reach out. I look forward to working with you! Whenever I have extra time in the day, I like to spend it with pets! As a newcomer to Davis, I'm hoping to incorporate pet sitting into my weekly routine while getting to know the community. Please reach out for further scheduling details. Thank you! At the beginning of each visit, I make sure pets have a chance to go potty, then I check, wash, and refill their water bowls and follow any feeding or medication instructions provided. I like to keep a written checklist for every visit so I wont miss an important task! Once their basic needs are taken care of, I love spending time with them by playing, brushing, petting, or going on walks (only with owner approval and at appropriate temperatures!). Before heading out, I like to snap a cute photo and give updates so you (the owner) can see how your pet is doing and have peace of mind.
“I could not have asked for someone more accommodating to my special circumstances. Samantha showed up 10 minutes early to the appointment at my last minute request, and stayed in the hotel room with my dog while I went to government appointment having just flown in to LAX. She helped me during my time in need by taking such good care of my puppy. She even took him for a walk in the hotel! Samantha is kind, caring, and good human being overall. I highly recommend her for your pet!”
“Jessie is wonderful to have as our pet sitter! She communicates well and was so great with Oslo. She is totally trustworthy and we will definitely be calling upon her again!”
“Wyatt took care of Simba in our Christmas break. He was very consistent in timing and followed each of the tasks on time. Simba was in great conditions when we came back from the vacation. We would love to work with Wyatt again in future. Thank you”
“Michelle house sat for our cats while we were on vacation and we never once worried about how they were doing. She shared nice updates and pics every day, kept up with their meds, and took great care of our house! She is a top-tier cat sitter and we would trust her to look after them again in a heartbeat!”
“Sydney is absolutely fantastic! My little pup is very shy around new people but within a day or two, he warmed up to Sydney and felt very comfortable with her. She is super responsive, communicative, and provides great rover cards. I love receiving her updates immediately following her drop ins!”
“Sofia had great communication and updated me during every visit she had with my pug. Even though my dog can be stubborn when it comes to eating, she always made sure he ate and was taken care of.”
About: I have taken care of about 100 individual dogs staying overnight at my home. Their age ranges from 4 months to 16 years. Their weight ranges from 10 to 130 lbs. I make every walk a meditation for me and the dog(s). I work on multiple part-time jobs from home with a flexible schedule throughout the week. I walk dogs four times per day if the weather allows. I fulfill dogs’ needs for physical and mental exercise by walking. I have a fenced yard for potty breaks. I have two kids to keep your pets accompanied. I have the knowledge for pet caring given my extensive experience.
About: I’ve always been around animals growing up and have walked for various family friends! I used to have a boxer dog who was my best friend, and I’m looking to be around dogs again! I’m a college student who is home for the summer that loves to walk and exercise while hanging out with your furry family member! I’m free in the mornings until 12pm, Tuesday-Saturday. I am open to dog sitting and dog walking during that time. If needed, I’m free after 9pm most days as well for dog sitting or walking! I’ve always had pets in my home and have learned over the years and growing up the responsibility a pet is. Your dog/cat is part of the family and they should be treated like that by everyone!

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Davis
We cannot say enough wonderful things about Dina! Time and time again, she has gone above and beyond to accommodate our needs and make things work with her schedule. She is incredibly dependable, flexible, and genuinely caring. On one occasion, she even carried cat litter up three flights of stairs because they needed it, something she absolutely didn’t have to do, but did without hesitation. It gives us such peace of mind knowing our cats are in the hands of someone who truly cares about their comfort and well-being. Thank you Dina!!!!
We left our two cats with Jenna for two weeks, and during that time she was extremely attentive, communicative, and caring. She was sweet and gentle, and made them safe and comfortable while we were gone. Not only that, but she sent photos of our babies every day! Thank you so much, Jenna, for keeping our kitties safe and happy!!
I can’t say enough good things about Cat. She was able to take care of our cat on short notice and went above and beyond. She sends the best pictures and a thorough update. I feel so comfortable knowing that my cat is getting the best care. 100% will recommend and book again!
Carmen was just the person we needed to give us peace of mind knowing our cat was cared for while we were away for the week. She followed instructions provided, asked follow up questions for clarification when needed, and showed great patience as our cat was quite shy for the first few days.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, 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 use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
