About: Hi there! I'm a graduate student with a lifelong passion for animals and over 17 years of hands-on pet care experience. Growing up, I cared for a German Shepherd with special needs, which taught me how to adapt to each pet's unique requirements. Today, I share my home with a wonderful cat who keeps me company during study sessions. I'm the go-to pet sitter among my friends and family, and honestly, it's the highlight of my week! As a student, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to accommodate your pet care needs. I'm easy-going and attentive, and I understand that every pet is different. Whether your dog needs a long walk and lots of playtime, or your cat prefers a calm presence and meal service, I'm happy to tailor my care to suit their personality and any special needs they may have. I'd love to meet you and your pet! Feel free to reach out with any questions or specific requirements. I'm here to help make sure your furry family member is happy, safe, and well cared for while you're away. I'm a part-time graduate student, so I have plenty of flexibility in my schedule and can accomodate based on your and your pet'sneeds. Let me know what works best for you! When pet-sitting in your home, I prioritize creating a safe, comfortable environment for your pet while respecting your space. I follow all care instructions carefully, maintain your pet's regular routine (feeding times, walks, play schedules), and ensure all doors, windows, and gates are properly secured. I'm attentive to potential hazards and keep harmful items out of reach. I'll send you regular updates with photos so you have peace of mind while you're away. If your pet has any special needs, medical requirements, or anxiety triggers, I'm happy to accommodate and adapt my approach. Your home and pet's safety are my top priorities.

About: Hello! I’m new to Rover, but entering the game with a lifetime of experience in pet care and house sitting. I absolutely adore animals and am ready to be your pet’s new bestie. I specialize in caring for cats and small to medium sized dogs, but I’m flexible, so please feel free to reach out with questions. I have two beloved indoor cats (Ellie & Ripley) and help care for my neighborhood cat colony (Cowboy, Bandit, Siren, Margo, Andy, Daisy, Mugsy, etc). Every kitty has a unique personality and different needs. I’m happy to learn your cat’s individual routine and quirks so you don’t have to worry about their standards being met while you are away. I grew up with 2-5 dogs in the household at a time, which gave me hands-on experience with dogs of various sizes, breeds, and stages of life. Whether your pup needs extra patience, playtime, or just someone to keep them company, they will be in good/loving hands. I’m primarily a self-employed artist/small business owner who works from home so I have an extremely flexible schedule. Feel free to reach out with last minute requests, especially if you are re-booking a service and I have already met your pet before. As a house sitter I am clean and respectful of each pet owner’s personal space. I will take quality care of your home so that you have one less thing to think about while traveling. I aim to treat everyone’s home and pets the way I would want mine treated: protected and loved, with attention to detail.

“Ashley is absolutely the best! My dog is a little hyperactive and very suspicious of strangers. Ashley was able to put him at ease and befriend him right away. He is so excited to see her every time she comes. Highest recommendation.”

“Andrea has been walking my dog Jack for a a couple of weeks now and he has been so happy with her! He is skiddish and shy, but has taken very well to Andrea, which I think speaks well of her! They walk during lunch and he is so much more calmer in the afternoons and when I get home. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“Marina is incredibly responsive and provided wonderful care for my old dog. I can tell my dog likes her visits and walks. Marina is attentive, asks questions, and overall very caring. Highly recommend Marina!”

“Milagros was fantastic! Our pup Zoey was so excited to spend some time with her and was super bummed to see her go. Milagros worked on some commands and doggo etiquette while she was here and was very respectful of our space. I can always tell when Zoey has a good time because she zonks out afterwards. 😴 I know Zoey is looking forward to more walkies and play time with Milagros soon!”

“Scott is amazing! Great communication and lots of pictures. Our pup was in great hands. 5 stars all around! Will definitely be hiring Scott again.”

Tierney B.

“I don’t know what we’d do without Hans! Probably never be able to leave town again! He’s wonderful with our leash reactive anxious mess, and we came home to a dog who heeled much better than when we left!”

Martha K.

“Will definitely hire Magdalena again! She was responsive, punctual, and took such good care of Bonnie!”

Amy C.

“Reece was great! Came over early for a meet and greet, which I always appreciate. He was very fast to respond and made sure our deaf senior pittie was treated with love and patience (since he is a very slow walker). Will book again!”

About: As a friend to all dogs, I have been trusted for over 15 years to care for the fur babies of friends, family, and acquaintances. I take pride in my attention to detail when caring and providing comfort. As someone who is a stay-at-home partner, I devote a lot of time to our two dogs and have the time for more dogs that need supplemental guardianship. On walks, I am fiercely protective of their safety and make sure the fun factor is never absent. At homes, hydration & nutrition are high priorities and ensure they are fed based on their normal routines. Play time is a must, if your canine friend enjoys it.

“I 100% trust my dog with Arianna! She always leaves notes about how he did on his walk and I really appreciate it! She gives me peace of mind while I’m at work. I know my dog is in good hands :)”

About: I am super active (hiking, running, freediving, surfing) so I'll make sure to give your pup a good amount of exercise! I'm a Sacramento native and know all the fun places to go on a walk. I also love cats and can't get bored of playing with them! I have experience in caring for special needs and senior animals. I have tons of availability all summer long so please reach out! I am currently working part time and have a super flexible schedule! My busiest mornings are Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays, but I'd be happy to fit you in! I am always open to collaborating on a schedule that works for everyone. I have two mellow cats and one very playful vizsla! If your pet prefers to play alone, I have dog gates and a backyard for them! Otherwise, I'd love to hang out with your cat/ dog or take them on walks! Feel free to reach out for additional services.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs and cats my entire life! I was raised caring for our pets as part of the family and I hope to get the chance to extend my care and love to your furry family members! I also have a 1.5 year old mini dachshund named Pabu - so I have experience with the puppy years! I love to try to fulfill as many of your pet’s needs as possible - playing tug of war, setting up sniffing games, and even teaching them a trick or two for their mental stimulation. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family! I currently work T/W/Th so have plenty of flexibility during the rest of the week when it comes to caring for your furry friends! My puppy is crate trained and I’m walking distance from a dog park. For your furry friends, I’m comfortable walking them along new or familiar routes and have experience with reactive dogs if they need a little extra attention to the surroundings! I also have experience setting mental stimulation games!

About: I’ve taken care of lots of types of dogs and cats. I have experience giving medicine to both dogs and cats ( I have experience with the cat burrito maneuver). I am patient with animals and do my best to meet them at their level. I am an owner of a high energy dog and she has taught me so much about talking care of pets. During the week, I have availability for lunchtime walks and evening hang. On the weekends, my schedule is much more open and I can be available whenever you need me. When taking a dog into a backyard I always make sure they are supervised. My pup is a jumper and can easily jump a fence. So I know what to look out for. When in a new spaces I always walk the fence line to check for any holes or loose boards. With indoor cats, I enter and exits the house carefully so nobody escapes. I understand cats can be shy, so i usually pick a spot and hang out quietly there and wait for the cat to come to me.

“Carolyn is just the absolute best thing that has happened to us! I can’t say enough about her. She is perfection wrapped up into a beautiful human. Thank you for everything you do for my baby girl 🥰”

“Anna was so kind, communicative and easy to work with on Rover! She was super reliable and responsive and sent fantastic updates. She went above and beyond in making sure the dogs were safe and well-taken care of during and after their walks. My dogs looked so happy and were well-loved by her. It’s clear she loves dogs, I would definitely book again!”

Stephanie K.

“I can’t say enough about how pleased I am with Bari and the way she took care of my border collie Woody. You can tell she has a genuine love for dogs and she takes her rover responsibilities very seriously. During my trip I was always in the know about how my dog was doing because Bari reached out to me each time she tended to him with texts and pictures which gave me peace of mind knowing that my dog is in great hands and being taken care of exceptionally well. I highly recommend Bari.”

“I’ve never seen my dog more excited than when Karen walks her! Always a delight to see Karen!”
