“Florence is the best!!! She took amazing care of my boy Milo. She also sent us lots pictures throughout the day. It was such a great experience, we will definitely be taking Milo back to hang out with Florence and her pups.”
“Rekha is very caring and made me feel comfortable leaving my puppy in her care. He is usually timid; however, he took an immediate liking to her. She took him for a walk and gave him lots of attention. I will definitely rebook her again!”
“Deborah and John are so kind and amazing at communication. They send photos and videos of Rocket the whole day. I also appreciated if they were unsure about something they reached out and asked which made me so comfortable”
“I feel so lucky finding Wendy. She is amazing, friendly and loves dogs. My dog Sandy had such a great time. What more can I say then I found my one &only dog sitter. Thanks Wendy till next time!”
“First time Rover user, and we couldn't more impressed with Annie. Starting with the "meet and greet", Annie welcomed our big baby despite his huge size (100lbs). He has an injury that requireds a special touch, and Annie more than delivered. We received pictures and videos throughout the day, and I swear, he almost didn't want to come home! We will certainly let Annie care for our big baby on day and overnight visits in the future! 🥰”
About: Hi! With over 50 years of hands-on pet care experience and more than three decades as a foster—including caring for fragile bottle babies—I bring a lifetime of knowledge, patience, and genuine love for animals. My background has given me the ability to nurture pets of all ages and needs, from newborns to seniors, and to provide a safe, calm, and caring environment. I am homebody and currently watch my 22 month old grandson at my house M-F 8-4. He has been raised around my resident animals and numerous fosters, as well as he has 3 dogs of his own at his house. I have baby/pet gates to allow both to have breaks from the other. I love my time with my visiting animals, whether it’s a day or an extended visit. I have a fence yard with a pool. I always accompany any non resident dogs when they go outback. I have 2 small resident dogs and 2 indoor cats. They are all used to other animals coming into our home.
“Excellent care as always. Keith and Jacklyn have been giving lots of love and care to my girl for about 5 years now and she’s always super excited when we pull up to their home. They keep me updated everyday on her, walks and play time. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for the perfect place for their fur baby to stay.”
“Irina has been great with Penny! I can tell she really cares and I appreciate how many updates she gives us throughout the day so I know that my girl is in good hands!”
“Domynique was amazing with my puppy Ollie. She sent updates and would provide walks along with just great quality time. She was super accommodating to my commute that she volunteered to meet me half way. Ollie always came home ready for a nap after a great day with Domynique, will definitely be booking again and would recommend 🥰”
“Thank you Denise for taking care of Zoey! I appreciate all the updates and photos! Zoey definitely had a fun time, and she didn't want to leave! I can't thank you enough for doggy-sitting!”
About: I’ve always had an affinity for animals. I trained & loved my 2 yorkies until they passed in their golden ages. I now have a 1 year old yorkie boy named Aston he is fixed, and very friendly. I also have a son that is 11 years old and he wants more pets, so I figured this would be a win win if we opted to be caregivers to give our guy a play friend and share our love of animals. Although my son will play with the pets, I assure that this time will be supervised and I will be the primary responsible caregiver. I work from home, as a life coach and my son is home schooled via zoom with his teacher. We can easily accommodate caring for additional pets during the week. I have a large, open real grass lawn space that is fenced in for there safety. I also Have all hardwood floors, so it’s very way to clean up any accidents if any occur.
About: I had a dog for 15 years who I took for walks, well-trained, and cared for. Our home has a large backyard with a maintained lawn where your pet can play and enjoy some quiet time. We live near a park which is walking distance where your pet can meet and play with other dogs. We do not have cats. I am a retired schoolteacher, occasionally do volunteer work in the Sacramento community, enjoy traveling, and stay active. I can spend one on one time with your pet. Our home is single story with a large fenced backyard and a raised bed where we grow our own vegetables. A public park is walking distance from our home where your pet can play and meet other dogs. We don't have cats and our neighborhood is relatively quiet. We also have a radio flyer wagon which can be used for older dogs.

About: I’ve always been an animal lover, animal owner and pet-sitter and I have my own mini-farm, myself! When it comes to your furry babies, I’ve got you! I don’t work during the week, and weekends are flexible for me to take care of your pets. Since I have my own bundle of animals, I’m used to feeding routines, walking dogs and caring for pretty much anything. Whether in your home or mine, I’ll do things the way you ask me to. Want them crated, walked or fed a certain way? I’ll do what you need me to do. Want proof and photos, guaranteed time with your pet, or any other odd pet situations? I’m your gal.
“Wow !!!! If you are like me about your fur baby, you are very protective and have high expectations. Rashea definitely exceeded all of my needs and wants. My baby stayed with her during the day while, I was in the area for business for a week. I had no worries at all. *Rashea has a warm welcoming spirit. You will feel it and so will your fur baby. *She customizes your baby stay to meet their needs *Her home is inviting and EXTREMELY clean (super important to me) *She kept me up to date on what Taylor was doing and sent pics. Book her, you won’t be disappointed :)”

Jacqueline was so friendly, professional, and responsive. She has so much knowledge and experience with animals that definitely put me at ease. She sent pictures and updates of our pup having fun, and even sent us home with a magnet with Beni’s picture on it. We would recommend anyone needing pet sitting services, we will definitely be using her again!
Deb and JC are amazing! Pip had a fantastic time during day boarding—he was happy, well cared for, and came home content and tired. They kept us updated throughout the day with pictures and videos, which we really appreciated. Their love for dogs really shows. Highly recommend!
Thnak you, Jessica & Brandon! They were available on short notice for Cody stay overnight. Overall communication was timely and as other reviews have mentioned, receving pics/videos are always a nice touch. Their Belgian Malinois, Gunner, seems well socialized and Cody seems to have gotten along well with him. No scratches on him or pee/poop stains on his doggie bed so that's always a big plus as well! =) Thanks again for watching him on a holiday weekend!
