About: All dogs are puppies to me. I’ve had dogs my whole life. To me, they are part of the family and I treat them as such. with love and lots of playtime ☺️ puppies cheer me up too so I look foward to meeting new friends 🥰 They are all puppy’s to me . I love them. I’m a caretaker & I make my own schedule. I can care for the pups all throughout the day. We can watch pup movies & play plus, I have patio space for the pup to stretch out & get some fresh air. While I’m at the clients home I will feed them , take them outside & play with them.

About: Animals have always held a special place in my heart, and caring for them comes naturally to me. Throughout my life, I’ve helped rescue stray kittens, safely return lost dogs to their families, and provided loving end-of-life care for my childhood dog. These experiences have taught me patience, empathy, and the importance of making every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, administering basic care, or simply providing companionship, I’m dedicated to treating every pet as if they were my own. I work part-time as an after-school program manager, with my workday beginning at 11:00 AM and ending at 6:30 PM on weekdays. This allows me to be available for morning visits, walks, feedings, drop-ins, and other pet care before 11:00 AM. I’m also fully available on weekends, giving me plenty of time to provide attentive care, overnight stays, extended visits, or last-minute bookings. I take pride in being dependable, communicative, and making sure every pet receives the love and attention they deserve while their owners are away. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I live in a quiet, pet-friendly apartment community with plenty of safe walking paths and several nearby parks within walking distance, making it easy to provide regular exercise and outdoor time without the need for car rides if your pet isn’t comfortable traveling. I also have crates available if your pet is crate-trained or needs a secure space to relax. Although I currently don’t have any pets of my own after recently saying goodbye to my childhood dog, my home is already stocked with cozy beds, toys, and other pet essentials to help your furry friend feel welcome and at home. I strive to create a calm, clean, and loving environment where every pet receives personalized attention and is cared for like family.

“Dustin is wonderful. I often need to make last minute plans. Dustin always quickly responds to out request to let us know his availability. Our dog, Hank, is aging and Dustin takes such good care of him. I never need to worry as Dustin is 100% reliable. I highly recommend Dustin as he is the best of the best”

“Natalie helped watch my pup in a last minute request and was great as usual. She sends updates and takes good care of my dog. I’ve had her for a few drop in visits and always appreciate knowing my dog’s in good hands.”

About: I have broad experience for caring for cats/dogs of all ages. I have experience with puppy/kitten care from days old on up. I also have extensive senior care experience. I am currently available Monday through Sunday. I can do overnight care, 24/7 care, check in and feedings and/or play time, play dates, and walking. Currently I have an elderly dog that’s 14 and 3 cats ages ranging from 3 years old to 15 years old. They are indoor pets. I do have a huge fenced in backyard that I allow the pets to roam on occasion.

“As a first-time user of Rover, we’re lucky to have found Aicha- she is compassionate, professional, educated, and communicative- all the attributes of someone you’d hope for to look after your beloved fur baby. For my initial drop-in visit, she was quick to respond and eager to adjust to our needs as new puppy parents. Her willingness to schedule a meet and greet prior to the 1st visit allowed us the opportunity to build rapport with Ube and show her the ropes before the first session. During her drop-ins, she sends real-time updates/pictures and asks for clarification of house rules giving us reassurance that she respects our home and reinforces habits we try to impart for our pup. Moving to Sacramento with few friends/family, she has been a huge support for my husband and I who both work long hours.”

About: I grew up with all sorts of animals, dogs, cats chickens, even pet rats and pet snakes! A favorite activity of mine a has always been taking our family dogs out for a run. I’ve had lots of experience with puppies and large breed dogs like Rottweilers and German shepherds. If you would like to schedule me for a run with your dog, Please specify that in your message. I’d like to know a little about your pup and the area that you live before I accept a run. I currently have a flexible job so I’d love to work your dogs walk or run into my routine. I love to run so if I can bring a dog with me to hit my miles and burn their energy, its a win! Mornings or evenings are my favorite time to run, while being careful of pavement heat and making sure the dog is happy and healthy. But I’m available some middays for check ins! My dog loves routine, so we have ours down. I’m happy to follow whatever your routine for your pet is, so that they are happy and comfortable!

“Holly has been a regular for our energetic mini-Aussie. She’s given an excellent description of their outings and willingly participated in some of the training we’ve been doing for Good Citizen Certification.”

About: I have taken care of animals for almost 7 years! I am constantly around animals, and I love learning the needs and wants for each dog and/or cat. Every animal has their own little personality that makes them the best, and I want to learn what your animals need in order for them to thrive in my care. I am comfortable around all dog/cat breeds, and have experience taking care of a range of breeds. When I come to walk, spend time with, and take care of your animals, they are my first priority, and I will do everything in my power to make sure they feel loved and cared for. I understand that every dog or cat needs different things, and I am more than willing to adapt to meet you and your pet where you need me! I have a dog and cat of my own- a rescue Labradoodle named Beau, and a short-haired tabby named Kona! They mean the world to me, and I will treat your animal with the love and respect that I treat my own animal babies with! Skills: I have ample experience in treating dogs who require medication, as well as senior dogs who need some extra care and attention to ensure comfortability and happiness. I am happy to lightly groom your pet if needed. For any medical accomodations, just give me a heads up so that I can best take care of your doggie! I have had almost a lifetime of taking care of cats, and am not a stranger to the many different and cooky personalities they can have. I have experience with a range of kitties who vary from requiring a little more space to get comfortable, as well cats who are super extroverted and friendly from the get-go. I have experience in brushing and maintaining both short-haired and long-haired cats, nail clipping, litter box maintenance, teeth brushing, ear cleaning, giving oral medication, etc. I am currently working part-time, but I have a lot of flexibility and work mostly mornings and early afternoons. I am also a college student with a very accommodating schedule! I have a lot of free time during the days and evenings, so I am virtually always able to come check-in and spend time with your fur baby! I have 5+ years of experience in housesitting, so navigating new environments in nothing new to me. Whatever your dog/cat needs, I am willing and able. Cleaning up after animal accidents/tidying up after playtime are things that I love to do to ensure that you and your animal feel comfortable in your home!

About: I’ve been around/cared for dogs for more than 20 years of my life and still continue doing so. From having my own dogs at home to taking care of dogs in other peoples homes, I make sure to do my best work when taking care of them. I’m currently working from home, but with very flexible time. This gives me lots of time to be able to spend time with your pups here at my house or simply to just give them time to enjoy the outside in your own home/place. There may be some weekends where I can offer boarding or check-in’s. I have a huge fenced yard along with two playful pups that would love to have friends over to run around with or simply keep company for naps. I make sure to follow each rule and direction that is given to me in order to make your fur baby’s stay/check in as smooth as possible.

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.

“Stephanie was amazing!! Highly recommend her, my dogs loved her and I was able to leave out of town knowing my dogs were in good hands. She gave great updates and pictures throughout the walks, we will be booking with her again.”

About: Use my promo code CORINP14452 for $20 off your first booking! Hi there! I’ve loved animals my whole life. I’ve had many cats, an Australian Shepard, a Maltese, hamsters, and even a snake. I have volunteered at a dog rescue, and I have experience walking and sitting all sorts of dogs— small, large, young and excited, old and a bit slower, trained, untrained. I've raised dogs and cats and have done the whole shabang- training, potty-training, cleaning up messes, etc. I understand things happen and am patient with them. I'm happy to play with your pets, take dogs on walks, and give them extra love while you are away! I am a clear, honest communicator. I want you to be aware if anything happens you need to know about to ensure the safety of your pet. I have been on your end of Rover, and I know how nerve-wracking it can be to leave your pet with someone you don’t know very well. So I will send consistent updates and pictures, and be available for any questions from you. I can’t wait to meet your furbaby! I will treat them as my own 🩵 I work from home and have a very flexible schedule. I have a few meetings spread through the day, but most of the time, I can make drop ins/walks work with whatever schedule is needed. And if I am dog sitting, I will be home all day since I work from home. At my home, I have a fenced in yard. I will supervise any outside time. I will make sure the leash and collar are secured before going on a walk. I don’t put my face in their face, and allow them to take the lead on contact and interaction. I know I’m a stranger to them at the beginning, and know trust needs to be built!

About: I approach each dog as individuals to understand their personalities. As a pet parent, I’ve owned five dogs, three of which unfortunately have moved on to the rainbow bridge. I currently have a 5 year old Aussie and a 3 year old border collie mix, both a calm and friendly to dogs, cats, and people. I work a regular job from 8am - 4:30pm M-F, with remote work from W-F. My availability are any remote days and weekends. I can watch your dogs at home during those days or check in on them after work hours and anytime in the weekends. I spoil my dogs and cats. I make sure to play with them daily and take them for walks. Having an Aussie and border collie demands it! Both our dogs know when it’s bed time and sleep in our bedroom. Luna the border collie sleeps in our bed, the best snuggle bug ever.

“Amanda was amazing! I felt so relieved knowing that Max was in great hands with her, she was also very knowledgeable about the French Bulldog breed which helped me feel so comfortable in her care. Aside from her care, her vibe is immaculate! Would absolutely book again!”

Chloe M.

About: Hi! I’ve been looking after dogs for over 10 years and I currently have a small Yorkie poodle mix for almost 3 years. She’s super playful and grew up around all types of dogs that I’ve dog sat over the years so she’ll be great company for your dog! I also live in a very safe community with a lot of dogs so we like to take multiple dog walks throughout the day and we also have a large group of dogs that get together to play everyday if your dog is open to it! Let me know your preferences and we can work something out. I work from home and have a flexible schedule. I’m able to provide regular walks, playtime, and attention throughout the day. Your dog will have plenty of companionship and consistent care. 💕 In my home, pets have access to a secure, grassy fenced backyard where they can safely roam and play. I make sure each dog feels comfortable, safe, and cared for like they’re part of the family.

About: I’ve spent most of my life caring for dogs and have personally trained five dogs with different personalities, needs, and learning styles. Over the years, dogs have been much more than pets to me, they have been members of my family. That experience has given me a deep appreciation for how differently every dog communicates, learns, plays, relaxes, and builds trust. I’m especially passionate about canine behavior and body language. I pay close attention to the small signals dogs use to communicate how they’re feeling, whether they are excited, nervous, overstimulated, curious, playful, or simply in need of some quiet time. I believe good pet care starts with understanding the individual dog rather than expecting every dog to respond the same way. While I am not a certified dog trainer, I have substantial hands on experience with training, positive reinforcement, routines, boundaries, mental stimulation, and everyday dog care. I believe dogs thrive when they are given a healthy balance of affection, structure, exercise, enrichment, freedom, and clear expectations. My current dog, Charlie Girl, is a 2 year old Boxer/Hound mix with an incredibly happy and social personality. She has responded exceptionally well to training and has reinforced how much I enjoy working with dogs, learning from them, and helping them feel confident and secure. Caring for her every day includes walks, training, play, mental enrichment, affection, and plenty of time to relax and be part of the family. I also understand how much trust it takes to leave your dog in someone else’s care. My goal is to make that decision easier by treating every dog with patience, attentiveness, and respect for the routines and boundaries their family has established. I enjoy providing regular photos, videos, and updates because I believe clear communication helps owners feel connected and confident while they are away. Ultimately, I want every dog in my care to feel safe, understood, engaged, and genuinely welcomed. Seeing a dog relaxed, happy, and comfortable is something I find incredibly rewarding, and I want to provide that same peace of mind to every family I work with. Caring for dogs is already a central part of my daily life, and I am committed to making pet care a dedicated part of my work. My 2 year old Boxer/Hound mix, Charlie Girl, has a daily routine that includes walks, training, mental stimulation, play, affection, and plenty of time to relax and cuddle. I bring that same level of attention and involvement to the dogs entrusted to my care. Because I am intentionally dedicating my time to pet care, dogs staying with me are part of my day not something I simply fit in around a busy schedule. I enjoy being actively involved with them throughout the day through play, enrichment, positive reinforcement, companionship, outdoor time, and exercise. I believe daily walks are important for both physical exercise and mental stimulation, and when appropriate for the individual dog's age, health, routine, the weather, and their family's preferences, I aim to provide up to an hour of walking and outdoor exercise each day. I also know how difficult it can be to leave your dog with someone else. Communication is a major part of the service I provide, so I enjoy sending regular photos, videos, and updates throughout their stay. I would rather communicate too much than leave a family wondering how their dog is doing. My goal is to provide a safe, comfortable second home where dogs can relax and enjoy themselves while their family is away not an environment that feels like being placed in a kennel. I have a comfortable home with a fully fenced yard where dogs have room to play, explore, enjoy supervised outdoor time, or simply relax. I take a calm, patient, and structured approach to caring for dogs. I believe dogs thrive with a healthy balance of affection, freedom, exercise, positive reinforcement, and clear rules and boundaries. Structure should help a dog feel secure and understand what is expected of them without taking away their opportunity to be a dog. Understanding canine behavior and body language is especially important to me. I pay attention to the smaller signals dogs use to communicate whether they are excited, uncertain, overstimulated, uncomfortable, ready to play, or simply in need of some quiet time. Every dog has its own personality, history, routine, and comfort level, and I believe good care starts with respecting those differences. Charlie Girl is a happy, social dog who genuinely enjoys connecting and playing with other dogs. Even so, I never assume that two dogs will immediately be comfortable together. Introductions and interactions are handled thoughtfully and supervised, with each dog's behavior and comfort level determining how quickly they progress. I also make it a priority to follow the routines and expectations established by each dog's family, including feeding schedules, sleeping arrangements, walking routines, training cues, boundaries, and other care instructions. Consistency can make being away from home much easier for a dog. Most importantly, I take the responsibility of caring for someone else's dog seriously. These animals are members of their families, just as the dogs throughout my life have been members of mine. I want owners to leave knowing their dog is being watched closely, treated with patience and respect, given meaningful attention and enrichment, and welcomed into a home where their safety and well being come first. Regular photos, videos, and checkins are part of that commitment so you never have to wonder how your dog is doing.
