“I’ve booked Farm to care for my dog three times now, and each time she continues to blow me away by how accommodating & attentive she is when she’s caring for our dog. Boom Farm if you’re looking for someone to love your furry friend as much as you do.”


“Ana was a great sitter. She took care of my two cats and parrot and was super enthusiastic and friendly. She even fed my parrot fresh fruits and vegetables. I'll definitely be using her in the future!”

About: I’m Lauren—Keeper of Cats, Walker of Dogs, with 25 years of experience caring for animals of all ages and personalities. My approach is quiet, steady, and respectful of each pet’s natural rhythm. Cats are my specialty. I’m comfortable with shy, senior, independent, or affectionate cats, and I follow their lead. I’ve handled medication, special diets, and slow‑paced routines with care. For dogs, I focus on gentle, unhurried walks and calm companionship while still providing full dog care—walks, feeding, playtime, and routine support. I’m a great fit for friendly, easygoing dogs who enjoy steady energy and consistent routines. Services include: • Cat visits, meds, litter care • Dog walks & drop‑ins • Overnights for cats or mellow dogs • Fish feeding • Thoughtful updates + photos If your pets prefer a peaceful presence and steady hands, I’d love to care for them. I work full‑time from home in an emotionally heavy line of work, and caring for animals is the bright, grounding rhythm that keeps me balanced. Stepping away to spend time with your pets—whether it’s a quiet cat visit or a peaceful walk—adds light and calm to my week, and I’m grateful for it. I care for pets by keeping their world steady. In your home, I follow your routines—feeding, litter care, walks, playtime, and any special instructions. I move at your pet’s pace, whether that means quiet company or active engagement, all while keeping your space tidy and your pets grounded and comfortable.
“Emily is awesome and took amazing care of my cats! I came home to happy cats and no poopy surprises in weird places from one of the cats like I’ve been having lately. And Emily was willing to check for those surprises during her visits.”


About: I’ve taken care of dogs belonging to friends and family since high school. I have a dog, two cats, an 11-year old bunny, and two fish tanks. I will treat your animals as my own, and would love the opportunity to hang out with your pets! I have open availability, so I can walk your dog or drop in on your pets any time of day during the week and on weekends. I have a fenced yard and a friendly dog who will be happy to keep your dog company. I have light-up collars I use at night for visibility as well.
“Vahid took excellent care of our furry kids while we were away. He communicated with us regularly, took plenty of pictures, and was very respectful of our home. It was such a relief to come home knowing our boys were well taken care of. We will definitely check with him next time we have a need for someone to check in on our kids. Thank you so much!”
About: I have loved animals for as long as I can remember, especially dogs! Spending time with animals brings me so much happiness, and I truly enjoy making sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for while their owners are away. I am patient, responsible, and comfortable around dogs of all sizes and personalities. Whether it’s going on walks, playtime, cuddles, feeding, or just keeping them company, I always make sure every pet gets the attention and care they deserve. I also have a puppy of my own named Jugnu, so I understand how important it is to have someone trustworthy caring for your fur baby. Having a puppy has taught me a lot about patience, consistency, and giving animals the love and attention they need every day. I know how energetic and playful puppies can be, and I genuinely enjoy being around them! I am flexible, dependable, and willing to adapt to your pet’s routine so they stay as comfortable and happy as possible. Whether your dog loves long walks, playing fetch, relaxing at home, or getting extra belly rubs, I’ll make sure they feel cared for and loved while you’re away! I have a flexible schedule and make pet care a priority in my daily routine. I’m available for walks, and pet sitting during weekdays and weekends. I’m reliable, responsive, and committed to giving pets consistent attention, exercise, and care while their owners are away. I provide a safe, clean, and calm environment for every pet in my care. I always follow feeding schedules, exercise routines, and any special instructions provided by owners. I focus on building trust with both pets and owners by being attentive, patient, dependable, and ensuring pets feel comfortable and secure at all times
“Erika was fantastic! She took such great care of my dog and sent awesome pictures! She communicated extremely well and was very reliable. Tito can’t wait to see her again! Can’t recommend Erika enough!”

About: I’ve had dogs for as long as I can remember. I love to train my own or take them on peaceful nature walk. I have senior pups of my own and younger energetic pup as well. I work part time and need extra money. I have time in my day to take care of others. I’m able to commute and take them on walks in peaceful areas. I can help you and your pup taking them on walks, making sure they are fed, and that their thirst is quench. Giving them company and playing around to get their energy out.
“Thank you so much for taking such great care of Sparrow, Haze, and Champagne. I was able to enjoy my vacation with peace of mind. All instructions were followed, and you my cats were in good hands. I would recommend.”


About: I had dogs for my entire childhood and as an adult, I regularly volunteer at our local shelter to take shelter dogs out for the day to help socialize them, give them love, and to just give them a change of scenery. I would be honored to care for your fur baby! I currently work remotely on Mondays and Fridays, so I have very flexible availability those days so I can fit your pup’s needs. I work Tuesday through Thursday from 8am to 4:30pm, but am fully available afterwards. I have a large fenced backyard with plenty of space for your pup to run around if needed. I am happy to board, so long as your pet is comfortable staying in the yard. We have rabbits in the home, so unfortunately we cannot have dogs indoors.
“I adopted Lucy (4 year old Great Dane) in June 2025. I was hesitant to ask a Rover to look after such a big dog, but Dustin immediately assured me that he was familiar with large breeds. Our first meet-and-greet went amazingly! She took to him instantly and he went out of his way to make sure she knew she could trust him. I booked him over Thanksgiving and Christmas because I had to travel. I couldn’t be more thankful for him making himself available to help me out. He showed up reliably (despite celebrating his own holidays) and has been accommodating to my chaotic requests. A true saint and dog lover.”


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 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 a great pet sitter for my baby girls while I was away on a last minute business trip! She was super attentive and had excellent communication when she came to visit. Definitely recommend booking if you need someone to swing by for a few days!”


About: I’ve been around pets my whole life. I have my own cat, Button, whom I love dearly and have taken care of pets for my friends lately. I am in between jobs so I am free to work with whatever schedule you have. If you have leftover food that needs to be used, I’d be happy to not let them go to waste. I prefer to care for your pets in their home territory. I am very easy going and happy to follow any instructions you have for me.

Glen Elder pet parents share their Rover experiences
1000/10 Ana went above and beyond. She was very detailed daily with the house visits and it was truly such a pleasure to have her watch my babies! She even helped with my rats/bearded dragons & i am sooo grateful. She cleaned litter boxes, water plants & brought in my mail which is so kind because I didn’t even ask her too 🥹❤️🔥. I’m not even home yet & I can already tell from the pics they loved her. Defiantly a huge comfort knowing I can trust her & will be rebooking asap!!

Emily was an awesome cat sitter for our two week vacation! She was a great communicator, quick to respond, and always kept us updated with lots of photos and videos. It’s always hard leaving our cats for that long, but Emily gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were cared for, loved, and getting plenty of attention while we were away. We’re so grateful we found her. 10/10 would recommend, and we will definitely be rebooking with her in the future!

Jazmin was so amazing!!! Truly incredible person with so much care for my sweet girl! Took her time coming to meet her beforehand and even fed a churu. I felt immediately comfortable with leaving the keys with her knowing she would be taking great care of her! No hesitation to book you again Jazmin and recommend you to everyone. Thank you!!

Andee was a total lifesaver this weekend. We got stuck in Chicago for an extra day due to flight delays and she was willing to do a few extra check ins with our pup last minute. It was so relieving to know that she was taken care of while we got our travel sorted.

Mia was amazing with my dog this past week over Thanksgiving. She gave very specific updates and was always on time. She also followed all the little instructions in order to keep my dogs routine the same while being gone. I would strongly recommend her to anyone!

I had a great experience with Aime! Communication was excellent from start to finish. She kept me updated every step of the way. She let me know when she arrived for each drop-in and even sent me a photo, which gave me so much peace of mind. Super sweet, clearly cares about animals, and very reliable. Highly recommend!
