“Kelly is great with our Cat and Dog, and she always goes the extra mile to make sure they’re doing okay when she’s taking care of them. She really understands cats, which puts us at ease knowing our girl is in great hands.”
About: I have 5years working experience with both large and small domestic/captive animals. This, along with my education at UCD, has helped me gain utmost confidence in reading an animal’s body language and behaving in ways they can be comfortable with me. I am a big fan of enrichment, so I am all for anything you’re willing to try for your pet that can get their minds stimulated! I’m detail oriented and skilled at maintaining whatever level of energy your pet needs. I’m currently working full time at a farm animal sanctuary and have the flexibility to walk or drop in on your pup between 6a-11a and from 9p-overnight as needed I have a 1bed apartment and a friendly golden that is trained to be around reactive dogs. I love to visit nearby parks and green belts, so rest assured your pet will have the sniff of a lifetime!
“Dina did a fantastic job taking care of our cat. She was very responsive and a great communicator. We felt confident our cat was in good hands and reassured by the detailed notes/photos provided.”
“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!”
“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!”
“Audrey did an awesome job watching my cats, I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. My cats loved Audrey back, as evidenced by pics of them crawling all over Audrey, lol! The litter box was clean, and they were fed and happy when I got home too, just like I was hoping. Audrey was kind and pleasant to be in contact with.”
About: I have experience with pet sitting other animals including chickens, hamsters, and am a quick and adaptive learner!! Enjoyer of the outdoors and being out in the community. I work part time often early in the mornings and have a lot of time the rest of the day. My schedule does change from week to week but clear communication will always be maintained. I am extremely respectful of others’ homes and belongings. Depending on the service I will always confirm and set clear boundaries for both myself and the client.
“Esmerilda was absolutely fantastic! I had very poor planning but she accepted my last minute booking. She sent me a ton of pictures and little stories of how my cat Bear Bear was doing which set my mind at ease about having to be away. She also made sure he got his meds, was well fed, and given all the scratches and cuddles. I highly recommend her to others.”
“Amy took great care of our dogs while we were away. She worked with me on the drop-in schedule to ensure the least disruption to their normal routine. I appreciated the Rover cards and photos from each visit. And being responsive when I checked in. Thanks, Amy!”
“Jessica was the best! I had her watch my kitties for a couple days and just loved her daily updates with all of the pictures. (She takes fab pics btw, made Kale look like a little model😁) My cats were content and relaxed when I got back so I know they were in good hands. When she returned the key to me, she gave me a little package with the nicest note and some cat treats and a cat toy which was SO NICE of her!! Will definitely be booking again, thank you Jessica!”
About: I have owned a few dogs in my lifetime and as of 5 years ago I started caring for my neighbors’ dogs all throughout Davis! I typically stay the night and give them playtime in the backyard or walks.. whatever is needed, I’m there. I have experience with administering oral medication to dogs. I’m a recent UC Santa Cruz graduate with a degree in Ecology and Evolutionary Biology, and I’m currently looking for wildlife technician jobs as well as applying to grad school. I’m a part time caregiver at the moment so I have plenty of time to care for your pets! I make sure to ask all the right questions in case of emergency and for the comfort of the pets. I like to get written lists of everything that needs to be done while the owners are away, this helps with any clarifying questions I may have!
About: I’ve spent over 10 years caring for pets, including senior pets and those with special needs, including diabetes care. I’m always happy to tailor my approach so your pet gets the exact care, attention, and routine they’re used to. As someone with pets of my own, I have a good chunk of time carved out specifically for animal care. I would love to spend my spare time with other pets while their families are away. I am committed to providing personalized care tailored to each pet’s routine and needs. In a client’s home, I maintain your pet’s normal schedule with feedings, fresh water, walks or litter box cleaning, playtime, and companionship. My goal is to keep your pet comfortable and their routine consistent to minimize any stress while you're away.
“Our Riley loves Jenna! We appreciate that Jenna is detailed in her feedback about visits. Jenna supports our training by doing the same when she is with our dog. Knowing Jenna is spending time with Riley has put us at ease when we are away.”
“Responsive, caring, and great with our dogs. They took to her right away. Our bigger pup, Karl, usually freaks out for a while when meeting someone, but he settled fairly quickly when meeting Juliana. Would definitely book again.”
About: A former UC Davis graduate. I’ve taken care of dogs all my life. I’m a dependable and attentive pet sitter who focuses on creating a calm, low-stress experience tailored to each animal’s personality and routine. I’m especially skilled at reading behavior cues, helping shy or anxious pets feel comfortable, and maintaining consistency with feeding, cleaning, and enrichment. My background in structured, fast-paced environments has made me highly organized and reliable, so pet owners can trust that every detail will be handled with care and responsibility I’m currently free during the work week most times of the day. I also have availability on weekends on a need to need basis. I’m ready and willing to spend as much time as your pets need. I wouldn’t be able to take care of pets in my own home but can do whatever is needed in their homes. I am good at providing structured resting time as well as play and can provide support with any trailing being done in the home
About: We are excellent dog, cat, bird, poultry, reptile, and fish caretakers as we have raised most of these, and a few years ago, we had a thriving Rover business taking care of folks' animal babies. We can take care of medications if your pet needs: We have administered medicine to most of the animals on our list, including oral medication for a rooster and injections for a snake. We have had some experience in training our current dog as a service animal. While we have not had the chance to care for farm animals on our own, we love them and have had experience being around them (horses, sheep, goats, cows, pigs, alpaca). Animals, plants, gardens, farms, and home-care are all in our wheelhouse and are the foundations to our lives. If you are looking to have your fur baby stay with us, we have a large home with a fenced backyard. Our German Shepherd loves to play with other dogs, and we take him and our guests to local dog parks or fenced fields to play ball and or frisbee. We take care of our guests exactly how we want our pup to be taken care of! I work part time remotely and part time I will need to be in the field. What that means is a lot of the time, I will be in the home, hanging with your furry, feathered, or scaly baby, working on my laptop. During the times I need to work outside of the home, my 19 year old daughter (who has been doing Rover with me since she was 11) will give the best care in my place. I have a thriving Airbnb business in my home for over a decade, so I have a ton of experience and mindset on home-care: I treat other folks' pets and homes as well as I treat my own. I make it point to keep my clients connected via photos and updates. If I am providing boarding in my home, our 4 year old German Shepherd will love to play with your pup. If I am providing sitting in your home, then my pup will stay home unless requested for a playmate in your home.
“Super attentive with my cat while I was away and gave thorough updates on every visit. This was the first time I’d left her alone and Elizabeth was really patient with me through the process and with my cat! Will definitely have her sit again!”
“Kyle has watched our 3 cats two times now. Kyle always gets the best pictures, even my skidish one. The other two really seem to enjoy having visits and pets from Kyle.”

Juliana was so patient and caring not only with our girls, but with us as first time Rover users. Her details on the visits along with all of the adorable pictures helped to comfort us and remind us that our kitties were well taken care of. She was open to our tips along the way and was comfortable giving topical meds. I can’t recommend her services enough!
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.
Jessica and her daughters did a fantastic job taking care of my cats while I was away. She was reliable and communicative. She kept me updated and made sure everything kitties need were taken care of. My cats were happy and relaxed when I returned, which says a lot. I really appreciate their professionalism and kindness.
Adele was great with our two cats. They warmed up to her quickly. She was attentive and played with them, she communicated with us and responded quickly. She was friendly but still professional, and we highly recommend her to watch your pets. Adele is a wonderful pet sitter.
Nathaly was a wonderful sitter! She is very caring about our pets and was more than willing to accommodate my needs for my pets. I am very appreciative of her care and she kept wonderful company for both my pets throughout my trip away. Very attentive to my rabbit and my cat and would love to recommend her to future pet sitting seekers. Thanks again for your wonderful care.
Sierra is everything you could ask for in a sitter and more! She is thorough, caring, and responsible. I would trust her with my kitties any time. They all love her and that is a testament to her patience and warm energy. Everything I asked she did above and beyond and I’m so grateful to have found her!!
