“First time ever booking with Rover or having my dog cared for while I was away. She is a handful!!! But I came back and Dustin had already gotten her used to the "Gentle Leader" leash......where did my crazy dog go that pulled my arms off???!!! She was transformed. Just enough discipline balanced with lots of love. I was super relieved to leave her in his care- he is excellent. (although I dont want too many people to book him so that he has no time for me again....)”
“Nicole is absolutely 💯 the best dog sitter!! She is gentle, kind, and communicates well sending updates and pictures of my fur baby. She took time to make sure my anxious pup was comfortable and well cared for.”
“Kerstin stayed at my house to babysit my dog over this past weekend. She was super easy to communicate with and sent tons of pics. We appreciated her help so much!”
“I’ve never felt so comfortable and anxiety free leaving my beloved animals while on a trip. So grateful for her wonderful care, clear and detailed communication, and the ease all around.”
“Claudia has been dependable and flexible for daily drop-ins and walks with my precious furbaby. My pup took to her from day 1! She has a great ability to make her anxiety melt away enough to get much needed rest yet excited enough to run. Claudia is super attentive and provides excellent communication. You are so appreciated Claudia!”
“Keishla took great care of my large dog and cats while I was away. She even won over the affection of my more skiddish kitten! From the meet and greet, through the end of the sit, Keishla was respectful, responsive, and professional. She spent plenty of time playing with the animals, kept the house clean, and sent several updates and pictures throughout the sit. I would happily book her again!”
About: I've done pet sitting, dog walking and animal care with Sacramento's Midtown Mutts and Front Street Animal Shelter. I also foster cats with the SPCA. I love animals because they return love so easily. I currently work full-time Monday-Friday as a school teacher. I'm able to do pet care and house sitting on the weekends. I look forward to caring for your animals. I'm able to follow your families pet care routine. Animals thrive on routines. I will also care for your home as if it were my own. Home is where the heart is.
“Jazmin was wonderful! House-Sat for us during a 3-day weekend trip. Was willing to come by beforehand so Frisco could meet her (and not be too scared when she came to house-sit that weekend) which we really appreciated. She was responsive, sent pictures and videos, and our guy seemed to be doing well when we got home :)”
“We’re very grateful to have found Jodie last minute. She was so patient with our anxious dog, Polly, and respectful of our home and care instructions. We appreciated the updates and pictures, and we returned to a happy pup and tidy home.”
About: I have been dog sitting and taking care of pets since I was 15. I love being with dogs of all ages and breeds. I have a soft spot for anxious or nervous dogs as I also have a nervous dog at home myself! I will be sure to send you photos and updates every day about your pet and will treat them like they are my own pup. They will be well taken care of and receive lots of love when they are with me. I am currently working full-time, but I am available to come by on my lunch break for a potty break or walk, and can come take care of your pet before 8am and after 5pm. If you prefer to keep your dog crated, I make sure they are not being destructive to your home while I am gone. I also make sure to give them plenty of mental stimulation, and I will clearly communicate all matters to you.
“I’ve used rover many times before, Maria not only left me reassured on our pet meet up before the booking but also during booking. She listened to all of my elder dogs needs, my baby is 14 years of age and leaving her for a week was definitely nerve wracking since here eyes are already grey. She would send me updates on my pets, my dog doesn’t get along with many people or pets but she allowed Maria to get near her and even napped together. She truly is Angel and HIGHLY recommend!”
“Sabrina was wonderful! She was very organized, communicative, and always on time. We felt completely comfortable having her in our home, and she even left it cleaner than when we left. She sent photos and videos that gave us peace of mind and showed how well our pets were being cared for. Leaving your pets with someone new can be stressful, but with Sabrina we had no concerns at all. We’ll definitely be booking her again in the future!”

“Abreena was an absolute gem to have. She watched my overly excited dog and did wonderful. I had excellent communication and a really positive experience. Looking forward to future stays! ☺️”
About: I love DOGS! I have grown up around dogs of all shapes and sizes! Much like some of our dogs, I also get a little mischievous when I get left home alone too long, so let my extra energy benefit you! I am happy to run your dog until they are completely tuckered out, or take a little jaunt around the block to keep our senior pets moving and grooving! Whatever you and your pets may need, I am happy to accommodate! Currently working part-time and studying to become a yoga instructor! I have a very open schedule and can be very flexible to suit your family's needs! Animal safety is always a top priority. Happy to send photos or videos of your pet during our visit so that you can relax knowing your pet and I have having a great time together!
“Im so happy to have found someone I can trust with my dogs and my home. Kessyah is very responsive, timely, and has a calming presence that I’m sure dogs of all kinds appreciate. One of my dogs was a little overly animated upon meeting Kessyah, but she took it in stride. I look forward to booking with Kessyah again in the future!”
“Heidi did a fabulous job house sitting our anxious dog, Polly. We were very happy to see that Heidi got Polly to go on walks, which she normally refuses with new sitters, in the daily updates. We came home to a happy, healthy pup and the house was just as we’d left it. We would highly recommend Heidi to anyone looking for a responsible and caring sitter.”
“Julia recently cared for our 16 year old cat, Leaux, over night/s in our home. She did a fantastic job with him, following his frequent meal plan and giving him lots of cuddles. She also took extra care to calm him during the night when he cried out (several times) as he has a little older kitty dementia. She also took extra good care of our home. She sent me pictures and kept excellent communication along the way. It’s been a day since I’ve gotten home and he still keeps going into the guest room to see if she’s still there. He misses her. Don’t hesitate to book Julia for your pet.”
“An absolute gem! Lilly was so great with my really high energy rottweiler. She sent me constant updates and photos. She left my house very neat and tidy. It was nice to come home to my happy dog and clean house.”

This was Haile's first overnight stay with Bob and we are so happy we found her. She sends regular pictures and updates and lets us know when she arrives and leaves. Bob is obviously very happy to snuggle with her on the couch, and she's familiar with his medicines, including giving him an inhaler. We are looking forward to future stays with Haile!

I appreciated that Tammi agreed to a Meet and Greet with my dogs before she stayed with them. She was very accommodating to their needs and let my dog take his time to warm up to her, as he can be shy. I felt like she was a good communicator with asking any questions about the house and caring for my boys. She left my home neat and tidy. I will definitely request her services again.
Isabella was great in every way. Easy and enjoyable to communicate with, responsible, and really wonderful with my cats, one of which has special needs, and the other that is very, very shy. She was able to give the special needs cat her meds--which I was worried wouldn't be possible for anyone but me--and she even managed to get the shy one out for a little playtime. She sent me lots of updates along the way and left the house looking spotless. I am grateful to have found her!
Jill was amazing with our rowdy, very much still in training high energy pup Canela! Jill was so responsive and personable and sent amazing updates of Canela going on walks and runs and just getting out to enjoy her doggy life while we were away for the day. This was a pretty last-minute ask and Jill came through with the quickness. We really appreciated her and her ability to stay calm with Canela through Canela’s over-excitement of meeting someone new. Thank you Jill, and highly recommend her as a sitter here off Rover!
Katie stayed with my two pitbull poochies at my home while I went on vacation for 2 weeks, just as she did last year. I asked her to do it again this year because she did such a great job last year. When I came home, my girls were happy and healthy and my house was clean and tidy, just as I had left it. I highly recommend Katie for a dog sitter!
