About: Ive taken care of pets since I was 7. Ive been around all types of dogs and have learned to understand their needs and your needs! I will write a list of your dogs needs and make sure to strictly follow it so your pets feels comfortable with me in your home! I am home all day everyday and if I need to go out its for no longer than an hour or two! So your pet will not be lonley. I feed my dog in the morning and take him for a walk. Then we come inside and get some chores done. Then we play in the back yard or hop in the pool. Then I feed him again and go for another walk. Once he is home he is ready to watch tv and get some sleep!

About: Hi friends! My name is Katee and I have cared for animals nearly my entire life; my family has always owned some type of animal. I have owned reptiles, birds, rodents, cats and dogs. I have experience with kittens and puppies, and even newborn kittens. I have previously gone to school for veterinary science and worked at a veterinary clinic, but could not handle the darker sides of that job. I absolutely love caring for animals, and their safety is my priority! 🥰 Currently I am a stay at home mom, so I have plenty of time to hang out with your fur baby. I do have a new baby so I do need to come home for her routines, such as bath and bed time. I am available to house sit over the weekends, and can do drop-in’s and walks during the week. I will come to your home and hang out with your baby during the day, including walks and play as desired. I will administer medications, including ear and oral medications and provide baths if needed.

“Brenna was absolutely incredible. Very respectful, understanding, and committed. She was very engaged and learning about our dog, their needs and personalities. My dogs seemed immediately comfortable with her. She was professional while also carrying a sense of familiarity and comfort. She also seems to come with a lot of experience in caring for others.”

“We booked Tara to house sit and take care of our dog and two cats. Tara was amazing! She sent photos everyday and left my house is excellent condition. My pets truly love her! She is kind and very good with communication. She even went above and beyond by washing the bedding and towels she used. We have already booked Tara for to take care of or pets during our next trip. Thank you Tara!”

About: ​"Hi there! I’m an all-around animal lover dedicated to keeping your pets safe, happy, and comfortable while you’re away. Whether you have a playful dog who needs brisk outdoor walks, a sensitive cat who rules the house on their own terms, or small pocket pets with specific routines, I adapt my care to fit their unique personalities. ​I know how stressful it can be for animals when their humans leave, so I focus on maintaining their exact daily schedules for feeding, play, and rest. I pride myself on being attentive, reliable, and communicative—meaning you'll get plenty of photo updates to give you total peace of mind!" I'm a homesteader.

Show or tell me what you expect and I will provide the care

About: My love for animals began as a child and while I’m a nurse in profession my true passion is caring for our furry friends! My home is warm and safe. I’m physically capable of and used to walking dogs of all sizes. I understand that pets are family and it is my top priority to keep them safe. In addition, I also respect ones privacy and home. Your home will be treated as such and protected by ensuring doors shut and locked completely. I mind my business and give your animals the love and attention they deserve. I get to do what I love and get paid for it, your animals are happy and you have peace of mind....it’s a win win situation :-) I am a stay at home mom. So I am present majority of the time. A typical day would consist frequent potty breaks, water/meal, walks and socializing at the dog parks. I provide loving attention, direction and care. I have two dog parks in my apartment complex to enjoy as well as a trail. Animals are always treated like family in my care.

“Ryan is wonderful with our pets! He is able to handle our 92 pound hyper 10 month old lab and our 15 year old anxious chihuahua. Ryan communicated the perfect amount with us during our trip and left our house in the same condition as when we left. We already have him booked for our next vacation! Thanks Ryan!”

“We recently had Christopher stay with our two French bulldogs for 7 days, and he did a great job. It looks like he followed our guidelines; he sent just enough pictures, and when we were quiet for a few days, I reached out, and he always responded quickly. The pups seemed good when we got home. Even the mail lady said he was really nice. We would definitely invite him back.”

About: I’ve cared for animals my whole life, dogs, cats, small pets and I’m known for being calm, patient, and detail-oriented. I specialize in in-home care so your pet stays relaxed in their familiar space. I’m comfortable with seniors, puppies, and anxious or shy pets, and I follow your routines exactly (feeding, meds, potty schedule, exercise). My schedule allows me plenty of time for quality pet care! I’m available most mornings and evenings. I do work part time and have my kids week on week off so between work and kids I make time for pet walks and pet care when I have my kids. When I don't have my kids, I have more available hours and can-do house sitting locally in the placer county area. I take caring for pets in their own home very seriously and always treat your space with respect. I follow your routines exactly ~ meals, walks, meds, and bedtime ~ so your pets feel calm and secure while you’re away. I keep everything tidy, lock up carefully, and provide regular photo updates so you can relax knowing your home and pets are safe and well cared for. My goal is to make your time away completely worry-free.

About: I have taken care of and grew up with all kinds of small, medium and large dogs, cats, snakes, lizards, birds, rodents and more. I am signing up for Rover as I love animals and can’t have a per where I live and would love to help care for yours. I live in Nevada City CA and can travel to Lincoln, Roseville or Sac if you’re able to help with reasonable gas compensation. I miss my former roomie’s doggo (Ollie the Shiba Inu featured in many of my pics) sooo much and would love to care for your dearest animal family member. I grew up with animals and have professionally taken care of dogs as a dog walker, as a paid house and overnight dog sitter and cat sitter, and have caretaked for long periods of time professionally for friends’ and many different roommates’ dogs and houses. I love cats and puppies and kitties too!! I am experienced with all kinds of dogs, from elder dogs, to dogs w/ social issues. I love ALL animals and happy to also care for your exotic pet - lizards, geckos, snakes, rats, fish, horses (I love horses too and have some but limited horse care experience). - I literally love all animals! I have volunteered at an exotic zoo doing animal care and feeding, cleaning the cage for several months and even studied abroad in college and lived in Kenya Africa for 3 months to study wildlife management. Fun fact - I got to hold and feed a baby sloth as part of this. I have a flexible and open schedule presently as and am looking for work and pet sitting opportunities. I would love to work with animals that I can continue to build a relationship with - like be your regular dog walker, or maybe you live here part-time and want support for your cat while you’re out of town. I also teach yoga and dance and work online, so my schedule is pretty open. Just reach out - I am happy to be accommodating ☺️🙏🏽 I love going hiking and walking with dogs or adventure cats. I don’t think I’m allowed to have dogs or cats at my Studio apartment, so sadly can’t board your animal. I am happy to come to your home, and can feed/ walk, give meds, brush, and can do other housesitting things like water plants, garden etc.

“I'm hesitant to leave this review because if the word gets out about how great Secret is, she may be harder to book in the future! Secret came and stayed at my home with my cats while I was out of town for a wedding. She provided me with twice daily text updates, a few photos, and was responsive when I reached out to her. Upon my return, my kitties were happy and my home was clean. You would have never known someone had been staying here. Above all, she provided me with a peace of mind just knowing someone was here with my extraordinarily spoiled fur babies. I don't travel often, but I hope to be able to use Secret again in the future should the need arise.”

“Ninva was amazing! She took really good care of our fur baby. Ninva sent pictures and communicated really well. We will definitely be using her again!”

About: Animals have been part of my life since I was an early adult, and caring and connecting with them comes naturally. As a wellness coach, husband and father of two, I’m big on structure, patience, and creating a calm, safe inviting environment for every dog I work with. I’m active outdoors, hiking, walking trails, and exploring around in the neighborhood, so your dog will get plenty of movement and attention. I will always adapt movement and attention needs to your liking. I’ve handled everything from high-energy pups to gentle senior dogs, and I’m confident with feeding routines, medication reminders, crate-training basics, and helping anxious dogs feel secure. I treat every pet like my own and keep owners updated with photos, check-ins, and clear communication so you always know your dog is in good hands. Whether your dog needs long walks, overnight care, or a dependable companion while you’re away, I bring consistency, kindness, and professional-level responsibility to every stay. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I work from home and set my own schedule. I’m already outdoors often, walking, working on the yard, biking, or taking my own dog out around the neighborhood or on the trails, so adding your pup into my day is a seamless fit. I’m available for boarding service either at my home or yours for 2-4 days during the week and weekend boarding requests as well. Your dog will always get consistent attention, movement, and care, never rushed or squeezed into a busy schedule. I provide a calm, structured environment that helps dogs feel comfortable the moment they arrive. My home in Fair Oaks has a large, fenced yard with plenty of safe space to explore. Outdoor time is always supervised, gates stay secured, and I keep clear routines for feeding, play, and rest so dogs settle in smoothly. We have two friendly dogs of our own, a Papillon and a Min Pin/Jack Russell mix, who enjoy having new companions around. They’re social, well-behaved, and help create an easygoing atmosphere for visiting pups. If a dog prefers their own space, I can separate areas to make sure everyone feels relaxed. For boarding in my home, I do require that dogs are potty trained. If you’re still working on potty training, I’m more than happy to support that process in your home. I’m also comfortable with crate routines, senior care, medication reminders, and maintaining whatever structure your dog is used to. As a father and longtime pet owner, safety and communication are top priorities, I send photo updates and check-ins so you always feel connected while you’re away.

“Aicha is amazing! She watched our dog sully in our home for a week while we were both traveling for work. She gave daily updates and the house was in great shape when we returned. We will continue to book with aicha whenever we need dog sitting. Thank you, aicha!!!”

About: I have been taking care of animals pretty much all my life. I am an animal lover, especially good at caring for senior animals and those with special needs. I have recently left teaching and currently I work part time and can make my own schedule. I sometimes care for my granddaughter during the week, but my schedule is pretty flexible. I will care for your pets in your home where they are comfortable. I will tend to their needs, we will play and bind and have a wonderful time and you will be able to enjoy your time away without having to worry about them.

“Marisela went above and beyond with my girls. I appreciate your willingness to help me in my day notice request. She was extremely understanding and patient to my eldest dog who takes a little longer to build trust. I highly recommend her services— I have very picky expectations who watches my girls.”
