About: I’ve always loved animals and genuinely enjoy getting to know their individual personalities, routines, and quirks. I believe pets deserve more than simply being checked on. They deserve attention, affection, play, and care that makes them feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. I have experience caring for dogs of different ages and personalities, including puppies who need help with house-training, crate routines, and learning good habits. I also enjoy walks, playtime, enrichment, and giving dogs plenty of positive attention. I’m equally comfortable caring for cats and love spending time playing with them, giving them affection, and keeping them company in their own home. My approach is patient, gentle, and attentive. I’ll follow the routines and instructions you’ve established for your pet and keep you updated so you know how they’re doing while you’re away. Whether your pet needs a good walk, some playtime and companionship, puppy care, or someone to stay with them while you’re gone, I’d love to help make their time without you as easy and comfortable as possible. I am currently going to school part-time so my schedule is fairly flexible during the week. I am also open on the weekends too. I am attentive and caring and have a home with a fenced yard. My sweet, friendly dog is named Cali. She has a relaxed temperament and can be a gentle friend to keep your precious one company while you’re away. I have great attention to detail and do well following directions. I can easily crate if requested.
About: About Javana I’ve been in love with dogs for as long as I can remember! I grew up with two dogs and have years of experience caring for friends’ and family members’ dogs throughout the 209 area while they’re out of town. I truly enjoy meeting new doggy friends and making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I’m happy to visit your pup at times that work best for their routine, and I always provide photo and video updates so you can feel at ease while you’re away. I love playing with dogs using their favorite toys, going on walks, and I never mind spending extra time on cuddles and snuggle sessions. Your dog’s happiness and well-being are always my top priority!🐾🩷 I'm currently working part-time, so l'l have plenty of time to play with your pups! I'm available for walking and drop ins just message me and we’ll set something up! I provide attentive, loving care in my clients’ homes and always follow each pet’s routine and instructions. I make sure your pup gets plenty of exercise, fresh food and water, and lots of love and cuddles. I’m very mindful of their energy level and needs, whether they want an active walk or a calmer visit. If a dog seems anxious or overstimulated, I’m patient and gentle and help them relax with calm attention and reassurance. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away.
“Sylvia did an awesome job! We did not worry at all about our pet’s care while we were away! Sylvia sent pictures and let us know how she cared for Daisy daily! She is very prompt to respond to questions or concerns! We will definitely be using Sylvia’s services in the future!”

My cat is also the most spoiled guy you will ever meet so trust me I understand all the little important details that these guys and girls need! I work part time and my schedule varies.

If you pet prefers to sleep in a crate we have plenty of space, but I would love to share my bed. Unless the temperature doesn’t allow my dogs personally prefer to be outside but are welcome in but can be in a separate space if needed. Everything is very flexible
About: I have cared for animals my entire life, because I grew surrounded by them. My goal is to work with any type of animal. Currently I’m studying to become a veterinarian, having this opportunity helps me get more experience and become better at it. Besides my personal life, I’ve taken courses in college to understand better animal behavior and learn more about it! I’ll always do my best to keep your loved ones safe and happy! I’m currently studying in College, but I have plenty of time after 2pm during Monday to Thursday. During Friday and Weekends I’m free and always available for any services! I live in a house that has plenty of space and is fenced. I also have a really friendly dog that loves to play around animals. If your fur baby is more comfortable inside the house, we have plenty of space inside where they can run and play!

“We had Coralie drop in on our cats while we were out of town for two weeks and she was great with them. She sent us photos and we came home to two happy cats. Our shy cat even let Coralie pet her by the end of the booking. Would love to book her again if she's available :)”

I have free time after I’m out of work I have a fenced yard and I am very friendly with any pet, I have a lot of patience for whatever the pet needs to make a more enjoyable time
About: Pet sitting is more than just a job to me; it’s my therapy, my comfort, and a little piece of healing that comes from doing something I truly love. Over the years, I’ve learned that every pet is different, and I love getting to know each of their unique personalities. Whether they’re energetic and playful, shy and needing a little extra patience, or older and wanting a calm companion, I do my best to meet them where they’re at. I believe in making pets feel comfortable at their own pace, sticking to their routines, and giving them plenty of affection and attention so they feel right at home, even when their family is away. 🐾 I love being able to include pets in my daily routine. I plan my schedule around making sure they get the care, attention, and love they need. Whether it’s walks, playtime, meals, or just keeping them company, I enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe and comfortable while their family is away. Creating a safe and comfortable space for pets is very important to me. I know how much trust it takes to leave someone with your furry family member, and I take that responsibility seriously. I pay attention to the little things — their habits, boundaries, and what helps them feel relaxed. In my home or yours, I’ll treat your pet and your space with the same care and respect I would want for my own. I’ll follow your instructions closely and make sure your pet feels secure, cared for, and loved while you’re away.
About: My love for animals runs deep—I currently volunteer at a local animal shelter, where I care for cats and dogs of all sizes, personalities, and needs. From socializing shy pets to walking energetic pups and helping with feeding and cleaning, I’ve gained hands-on experience that’s taught me how to read animal behavior and respond with patience, love, and care. Whether I’m hanging out with a cuddly senior cat or keeping a playful dog entertained, I truly enjoy making pets feel safe and happy. I treat every animal like family and make it my priority to follow their routine and comfort level while you’re away. My schedule is pretty flexible, so I’m able to fit pet care into my daily routine easily. I work remotely and can adjust my hours as needed, which makes it simple to handle walks, feedings, or any last-minute needs that come up. I’m very careful when it comes to pet care. I always make sure the environment is safe, secure, and comfortable—whether it’s in my home or the client’s. I follow any specific instructions closely and treat every pet like they’re my own, with lots of love, patience, and attention.
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - East Oakdale
Alyssa was always prompt, arriving for morning feeding and following my directions to provide fresh food and water. I appreciated the ability for my three cats to meet her prior to the time I was going to be gone. Frankly, the way my cats reacted to her at first impression was a big indicator that they would all bond. I don't vacation often, so this made for a very relaxing time away from home. One day, an unexpected package was delivered to a very visible spot on my porch. I saw it on porch camera and called Alyssa and she was able to stop by and put it inside the door where it was safe. Extra service like that goes a long way.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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 .
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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
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 sitter 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 sitter 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 sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
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 sitter.
