“I last minute needed a dog walker during my sit due to work obligations, and Quinn responded incredibly fast and came through right away. She relieved so much stress for me and was such a huge help. I’m so grateful, and she was absolutely incredible with Marshall too!”
“She is an amazing pet sitter! She is great with my dog, is very reliable, and I always know that my dog is safe with her and having fun! She walks my dog, throws the ball for her and lets her get energy out and use the bathroom while I’m at work and I always know she’s in good hands. She’s great at communication and is really flexible about what time she comes over. I highly recommend her!!”

“I couldn’t ask for anything more from Xitlalli! From the moment I met her, it was evident that she is very knowledgeable and comfortable with big dogs.

She is the best dog walker and would definitely request her again and again!”

“Kate is very dependable! I was on vacation for few weeks and nothing compares to the peace of mind you have when you know that there’s someone taking good care of your fur baby. She became my dog’s second mom while I was away. She sends me photo of my dog every walk and my fur baby always looks excited, happy and contented. Will definitely recommend her. Thank you so much Kate!”

About: I have taken care of cats and dogs at all stages of their lives! From birth to old age, I have bottle-fed and waned puppies, kitten sat, as well as administered insulin shots and oral medications to older cats and dogs. One of my kitties now also takes an oral pill twice daily, so I also have some experience giving cats pills :). I am a full-time student who just moved to Davis! I have a flexible schedule, meaning maintaining strict feeding or medication times should be no problem! I make sure all water sources are clean and replaced regularly, food bowls and cans are rinsed/washed immediately to avoid lingering smells, and do a quick walk-through of the pets' spaces to make sure your fur baby(s) didn't get into things they weren't supposed to. I also love plants, so in my own home, i keep them watered and check regularly for if there are new chomps in them and would be very happy to do the same for you if that is at all a concern :). And, of course, I offer plenty of play time with the kitties!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Davis
Su was PHENOMENAL! She was able to accommodate a last minute request, was extremely flexible and professional, and went far above and beyond what I've experienced from any other dog walker. I felt completely confident that my senior pup was in great hands, and I will absolutely book Su again the next time I am out of town. She was also great with my cats, although I'd only booked her for dog walking. She was communicative and had plenty of pictures and updates from each walk. Very impressed!
Michelle is amazing! She really saved the day for me and my somewhat anxious/reactive dog. My dog was too scared to go out with another dog walker leaving me wondering how I'd go to work with my husband out of town. Michelle was so gentle and kind with my dog, and helped me come up with a plan to get my dog comfortable enough with her to go on a walk. Michelle even moved her work schedule around because she knew I was in a bind. Now my dog LOVES her. I get pictures of such a happy dog when she comes to visit. I'm beyond grateful!
Cici was extremely kind and sweet with my puppy!! Her attention to my instruction and respect for my dog and home were much appreciated. There were many pictures and each walk was documented with great detail which I really appreciated and enjoyed looking at! Will be rebooking again!
Eva is an amazing dog sitter! She absolutely loves and adores my dog, which is the best thing a dog parent can ask for! My dog is so much happier when she comes to see him and I love seeing how happy he is in Eva’s rover reports. I am a helicopter dog mom and Eva has been so attentive and thoughtful, which has been a huge blessing! I cannot recommend her enough!!
I last minute needed a dog walker during my sit due to work obligations, and Quinn responded incredibly fast and came through right away. She relieved so much stress for me and was such a huge help. I’m so grateful, and she was absolutely incredible with Marshall too!
Sarah was excellent to work with -- communicative, friendly, and great with our girls. They are each 40lbs of energy and not the easiest to control sometimes -- but she worked with them to earn their trust and be their walk leader. Additionally, even though most of the walks were scheduled during a heat wave, zero complaints from Sarah, and she smartly knew to make the sure dogs didn't get overheated by limiting the distance and making sure they had water. Highly recommend her for anyone who is looking for a conscientious person to take care of their pets!

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Davis. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

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 walker 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 walker 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 walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .

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 walker.
