Dog Walking In Green Meadows

About: A former UC Davis graduate. I’ve taken care of dogs all my life. I’m a dependable and attentive pet sitter who focuses on creating a calm, low-stress experience tailored to each animal’s personality and routine. I’m especially skilled at reading behavior cues, helping shy or anxious pets feel comfortable, and maintaining consistency with feeding, cleaning, and enrichment. My background in structured, fast-paced environments has made me highly organized and reliable, so pet owners can trust that every detail will be handled with care and responsibility I’m currently free during the work week most times of the day. I also have availability on weekends on a need to need basis. I’m ready and willing to spend as much time as your pets need. I wouldn’t be able to take care of pets in my own home but can do whatever is needed in their homes. I am good at providing structured resting time as well as play and can provide support with any trailing being done in the home

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was a teenager. I grew up in a household that always had multiple pets (fish, dogs, hamsters) and have since expanded my love for animals by dog sitting and cat sitting for friends and family in the neighborhood. I am offering dog walking, sitting and other pet care services for whatever furry friend you need! I’m excited to get started with Rover and build community connections in Davis! I am currently a UC Davis student looking for a part-time way to make extra money and spend more time outside and with animals! I love going on long walks and hanging out at the dog park, or just entertaining your pet at home. I live in an apartment with an unfenced yard. When I dog sit for friends, I make sure to give regular potty breaks every couple of hours and maintain an environment that is safe and comforting for your pet.

About: I’ve spent over 10 years caring for pets, including senior pets and those with special needs, including diabetes care. I’m always happy to tailor my approach so your pet gets the exact care, attention, and routine they’re used to. As someone with pets of my own, I have a good chunk of time carved out specifically for animal care. I would love to spend my spare time with other pets while their families are away. I am committed to providing personalized care tailored to each pet’s routine and needs. In a client’s home, I maintain your pet’s normal schedule with feedings, fresh water, walks or litter box cleaning, playtime, and companionship. My goal is to keep your pet comfortable and their routine consistent to minimize any stress while you're away.

“Juliana took my dog Ponyo on a walk this day! I really needed the help because I had exams coming up, but also felt bad because I couldn't walk my dog. She was really helpful! Ponyo had an issue with his paw, but she brought him back right away and told me about it! She was really helpful and I'm glad that she told me right away on his walk! Thanks again!”

“Jessica was great with our large dog who is a strong puller. She handled her well and gave great updates to put our minds at ease while we were away on a trip. She also adapted to some last minute scheduling shifts we had to make. We will definitely use Jessica again and would recommend her to our friends.”

About: I’ve had dogs for as long as I could remember. I have experience with bathing dogs who get exited or like to jump around. I also have experience administering medications or flea treatments to animals. I’m also familiar with nail care which I do to my own animals monthly. Currently i’m taking on new clients and I have an open schedule for 7 days a week. I have availability for mornings, afternoons and nights. I have a very big open field across my house that would be great for walks and running around. I live in an apartment so I don’t have a fenced in area but I have a patio.

“Esmerilda has been great. She’s one of my regulars and I would highly recommend her. Energetic, great personality and great w animals esp my “special needs” Bow:)!”

About: I’ve always loved animals of all kinds. Insects, reptiles, rats, especially cats and dogs. I’ve also volunteered at the ASPCA for a year! I have experience with almost all animals, and I’d love to help take care of yours! I take care of two pets of my own, but currently don’t have a stable job. My days are open! Might as well do what I love and get payed for it. XD I have a calm smaller dog, and a cat who LOVES dogs (she’s strange I know). I live right next to a huge park and walking trail.

About: I’ve had cats/kittens continuously throughout my life and dogs/puppies continuously since my teenage years. As a kid I kept fish, reptiles, and amphibians. In my adolescence I had a dog walking and pet sitting business (records, marketing and all) caring for cats, dogs, rodents, and birds. I also spent my summers at a ranch getting accustomed to tending to all kinds of livestock. Then in high school I joined FFA and raised lamb. Through college I started working at a horse ranch that also keeps various other livestock. Currently, I myself have a horse, a couple sheep, and 2 cats. My other job is at a college so my schedule changes by semester. For the summer, I’m working 2 days a week which leaves early mornings, evenings, and the other 5 days a week flexible to meet your needs. I’m highly communicative and have a high attention to detail, so whatever specific needs or special instructions you have will be followed just as they are given. I have a quiet, calm, grounded demeanor that makes shy animals feel comfortable and at ease but I have plenty of energy to play with the party animals too! Have a dog that needs running instead of just a walk? I can do that also! I have two children (age 10 and 2) who love animals and are very gentle. If your animal loves kids then they would love to come along with me and give your animals some extra attention too. My limitations on species/types of animals are: no scorpions or tarantulas, or anything venomous no illegal exotics I will feed but not directly handle rams, bulls, boars, and stallions. Experience with: Wound care Administering oral and topical medications Bottle feeding

About: We are excellent dog, cat, bird, poultry, reptile, and fish caretakers as we have raised most of these, and a few years ago, we had a thriving Rover business taking care of folks' animal babies. We can take care of medications if your pet needs: We have administered medicine to most of the animals on our list, including oral medication for a rooster and injections for a snake. We have had some experience in training our current dog as a service animal. While we have not had the chance to care for farm animals on our own, we love them and have had experience being around them (horses, sheep, goats, cows, pigs, alpaca). Animals, plants, gardens, farms, and home-care are all in our wheelhouse and are the foundations to our lives. If you are looking to have your fur baby stay with us, we have a large home with a fenced backyard. Our German Shepherd loves to play with other dogs, and we take him and our guests to local dog parks or fenced fields to play ball and or frisbee. We take care of our guests exactly how we want our pup to be taken care of! I work part time remotely and part time I will need to be in the field. What that means is a lot of the time, I will be in the home, hanging with your furry, feathered, or scaly baby, working on my laptop. During the times I need to work outside of the home, my 19 year old daughter (who has been doing Rover with me since she was 11) will give the best care in my place. I have a thriving Airbnb business in my home for over a decade, so I have a ton of experience and mindset on home-care: I treat other folks' pets and homes as well as I treat my own. I make it point to keep my clients connected via photos and updates. If I am providing boarding in my home, our 4 year old German Shepherd will love to play with your pup. If I am providing sitting in your home, then my pup will stay home unless requested for a playmate in your home.

About: Are you a professional traveling for work or vacation? Do you need a house sitter who follows instructions with the same precision used in a lab? I am a PhD microbiologist and former UC Davis postdoctoral researcher, currently transitioning from academic research to state policy work. I have experience with taking care of my own pets, taking care of others' pets, and following precise protocols for taking safe, kind, and meticulous care of research animals as diverse as squid and cattle. While navigating the state hiring timeline, I am offering premium house/pet sitting services for clients who value maturity, reliability, and absolute adherence to their home routines. What do I offer? - The "Adult" Standard: I am a professional in my 30s. I do not throw parties. I do not invite guests. I do not treat your home like a dorm. It remains a sanctuary. - Protocol-Driven Care: My background is in the lab, not the clinic. I don't guess at animal psychology, but I follow your care protocols exactly. Medication schedules, dietary measurements, and security routines are executed precisely as written. - Cleanliness & Respect: I am trained to leave a workspace cleaner than I found it. Your home will be maintained to a high standard of order and hygiene. - Privacy Firewall: As a professional in transition, I offer a level of privacy that your students or subordinates cannot. Your personal life remains completely separate from your professional hierarchy. Logistics: - References: Current Landlord (vouching for impeccable property care) + Professional References. - Availability: I housesit a maximum of two weeks per month. - Animals I Will Sit: Adult and senior dogs, small non-venomous/poisonous animals (both mammals and reptiles - non-venomous snakes < 4 feet in length ok!), and aquatics only. For aquatics especially, please prepare a care sheet with the number and species (with scientific names if you know them) of all animals in the tank(s) and required physicochemical parameters for each tank, in addition to health information and feeding schedules. No cats may be present in the home (I am allergic). - Behavioral Requirements: Your dog must be fully housetrained and preferably also trained to follow some basic commands ("sit", "stay", "come"). I do not accept dogs with severe separation anxiety, constant barking, aggression towards humans, or destructive tendencies. I do not accept small animals/aquatics with aggression towards humans or destructive tendencies. - Other requirements: I am a working professional. Your home must have reliable high-speed Wi-Fi and a quiet place to sit and work while I housesit/watch your pet. If I am staying in your home, for my safety and security, I require that no other humans other than you come over for the duration. I work remotely full-time as a policy consultant, meaning my schedule is highly flexible and I can be present in the home for the majority of the day. I maintain a quiet, predictable, and focused daily routine. Because my work is entirely remote, your pets will have consistent companionship, and their specific feeding, walking, and medication schedules will be executed exactly as you prescribe them. My background as a laboratory scientist means I operate with an exacting standard of cleanliness, precision, and respect for established protocols. Your home is treated as a secure, private environment. I do not invite guests over, I maintain a strict privacy firewall, and I ensure all home security and maintenance routines are followed to the letter. My goal is to leave your home cleaner than I found it, providing clear, reliable updates (including photo and video) so you can travel with absolute peace of mind.

About: What sets me apart is as a pre-vet student, my clinical experience working in a veterinary setting, where I assisted in vaccine clinics and gained hands-on exposure to animal handling and care. This experience taught me how to safely and calmly work with animals of different temperaments, including those who may be nervous or stressed. I also have over 10 years of experience with a variety of species including dogs, cats, cows, goats, pigs, chickens and birds. I am happy and open to take care of all animals. I’m attentive to detail and able to recognize changes in behavior, appetite, or energy that could indicate a problem. While I provide loving and reliable care, I also bring a level of awareness and responsibility that comes from working in a clinical environment. I’m comfortable following specific care instructions and making sure each pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for. Beyond that, I truly enjoy spending time with animals and make an effort to build trust and give them the attention and affection they need. Afterall, it's all I want to do as I pursue my dreams to becoming a Veterinarian :) I have a very flexible schedule. I make sure to plan my schedule around the pets I’m caring for so they receive plenty of time, attention, and exercise. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. In a client’s home, I carefully follow all instructions to maintain their normal routine, environment, and feeding schedule to reduce stress. I always ensure doors, gates, and leashes are secure, and I closely supervise pets during walks and playtime. I create a calm, clean, and safe environment and pay close attention to behavior or any signs of discomfort. With my background in animal science and clinical settings, I am detail-oriented, reliable, and focused on making sure your pet feels safe, cared for, and at ease while you’re away.

About: Hello, I have always been an animal lover since visiting my Grandma's farm as a kid. My first job for that I held for 4 years in High School was at a Vet hospital, where I fed, cleaned, walked, cared for and groomed the boarding dogs and cats. As an adult, I have loved animal watching/walking for friends and family. As a volunteer, I fed and cleaned the farm animals at a non-profit ranch for autistic children. I work full time in the medical field and enjoy being active so I am excited to get outside for walks and visit your pets on my days off. I am no able to own pets where I live, so I would love to be able to care for yours. Thank You, Megan I am available multiple days a week to walk and drop-in care for pets. My work schedule changes each week but I am able to scheduled services a week in advance. I would care for a pet at a client's home. I do not have a yard but would be happy to travel to the pet's home to socialize and make sure that they are feeling safe and comfortable.

About: I am a passionate animal lover and obsessed with dogs (and cats)! From pets to dirty work, anything your fur baby needs I'm on it. Of course I'll play with and love on them when you're not around, but I am also happy to do some cleaning to make sure they're safe and sound when you get back home. I can take dogs on long walks, play fetch in the dog park, or give them baths. Litter boxes are no problem, whatever your baby needs! ¡Yo hablo español! I have a lot of schedule flexibility to take care of animals. I have plenty of time throughout the week, and am wide open on weekends and holidays. Feel free to take your trip, work late, or whatever takes you away from home because I got your back. I have a fenced yard at my house and one small dog who plays well with others. I also live close to a park and walk dogs there often. At your house- you set the rules! Wherever you live, I am happy to take your dogs on walks or play fetch with them in your back yard. I can scoop poop, refresh the waters, brush out the undercoat, and vacuum the fur.
