About: I’ve owned a dog for 14 years and also have worked as a dog walker on Wag for a few years now! I love to walk and play with dogs. They have been my favorite animal for a long time. I volunteer for the MSPCA and I just love animals! I’ve walked dogs of several sizes and I am comfortable with most sizes. I am very flexible when it comes to scheduling. I’m also very experienced with house sitting. I have a garden of my own and understand the care and gentleness that comes with owning plants. I also have taken care of cats and other animals, so they are not a problem for me! I would be delighted to work with your furry friend or take care of your home while you’re away I work part time, so dog walking or house sitting will fit perfectly in my schedule! I like to spend my free time walking outside to enjoy the fresh air and get exercise, so walking your dog will be a breeze! I take the utmost precaution and care when it comes to animals. I follow all instructions given to be sure that your pet will feel safe and comfortable around me
“Emily was an amazing cat sitter! She came to our home twice a day for our 5 day trip. Our cats were very well taken care of! One of our cats, Katie, required special medication and Emily administered her medication perfectly. Our cats were very healthy and in great spirits when we returned. We felt very comfortable and was able to enjoy our trip after leaving our fur babies with Emily. She was very communicative via Rover app and text and sent us photos and updates every day. We will be rebooking with Emily again soon!!!!”
About: Animals make me so happy. I will fall in love with your fur baby and care for them like they were my own. My educational background is a BS in Social Work and (almost) an MS in Psychology. I recently left my full time office job and have free time before I start my next chapter in the summer of 2027. I have mostly an open schedule right now, until May of 2027. I am free during the morning, afternoon, and evening. I can do weekend help too. I prefer caring for your pets in your home. I have a blended household (myself, grandmother, and my husband) with 3 cats who would not appreciate doggy playdates. I also believe they will be more comfortable in their own familiar space.
About: I’ve had furries since I was 4, dogs, cats, fishes! I believe all dogs and cats deserve to be treated with love compassion and attention no matter the size, breed, or species. I will love your pet like it’s mine and make them feel as comfortable as possible so you and your furry can have calm, fun and comfortable getaway! I work a part-time job so I’ll have plenty of time for the weekend all day long and doggy care/drop in visits/house sittings after 2pm I am available to take care of your furry at your home and provide them with the best care as well as attention and exercise!
About: I am an outgoing, animal lover who volunteers weekly at surrounding dog shelters. Although I do not have any professional experience, I do have a dog of my own and, as mentioned, volunteer to walk shelter dogs. I am able to walk, play with, or visit your dog during the day. Because I am a full time student, my hours do tend to vary.I love dogs and have had a passion for them throughout my whole life. I prefer no more than 2 dogs at a time, although I can handle 3. If you have any further questions, feel free to contact me ! I'm currently a full time student at Santa Clara University, so I do attend class 5x a week. However, I am completely free on weekends, and am available outside the hours 9am - 12:00pm. I am very flexible with times, and do not mind coming at any hour of the day as long as I am not in class. I am extremely comfortable with crating as well as putting on harnesses, jackets, etc. When in your pet's presence, he/she is my main priority and will have my focus and attention the entire time.
About: I have experience caring for a wide range of pets, especially larger dogs and lots of cats. I’m comfortable with high-energy breeds and understand the needs of both playful and more independent animals. Whether it’s keeping up with a big dog’s exercise needs or making sure a cat feels safe and comfortable, I always focus on giving each pet the attention and care they deserve. I’ll bet best to do in morning as I’m still in college and I work at sunset club on plumb island as a line cook. I always make sure pets feel safe, whether I’m in their home or they’re in mine. I follow routines closely, give them space to feel comfortable, and keep everything clean and secure. I respect the pet’s personality and the owner’s preferences, and I treat every home with care and professionalism.
“Sasha is Fantastic! She’s very communicative, is so good with our pup, and we enjoy having her come over weekly! This is my first time with a pet sitter and she made it so easy and we felt comfortable almost immediately. 10/10!”
“Jessica was pleasant, punctual and great with our Bella! Our dog has anxiety and is not the friendliest around people she doesn’t know. But Jessica did what I suggested and was able to have our dog feel comfortable with her and even alerted us about a situation in our house ! I definitely highly recommend her !”
About: I am no stranger to the animal world. I have been active in the horse world since five years old. I have over fifteen years of hands on experience with animals of all shapes and sizes; Dogs, cats, horses, livestock, chickens and other various farm animals. I have experience training dogs and a love for working with older rescues! Taking care of the four dogs, horses, and chickens at home requires us to be up by 7 in the morning. My weekend work schedule can be quite busy during the summer seasons, and my weekly schedule tends to be constant yet unpredictable. Please feel free to ask about the scheduling details, as I am very flexible. We have spacious runs, 30 to 60 feet long, and across the road, there are hundreds of acres of trails for our animals to explore. Our mission is to keep them engaged and active, as their world is shaped by what we provide. With plenty of stimulation, we can effectively manage behavior and craft positive relationships.
About: I love that no two pets are quite alike, and I find so much joy in getting to know their little quirks and figuring out what makes them happiest! My experience with rescue dogs has taught me the value of patience and earning an animal’s trust. Over the years, I’ve cared for animals of all ages and temperaments, from energetic puppies to senior pets who need a little extra attention. I’m also comfortable administering medications, following specialized care instructions, and adapting to different routines! Over the next month, my schedule will be shifting to working at my once full-time corporate job, to working at the same company part-time, on Mondays and Tuesdays. This will leave the rest of my week open for pet care! I’ll be completing self-paced coursework around my pet-sitting commitments, which gives me the flexibility to prioritize visits, accommodate different routines, and spend quality time with the animals in my care! I believe safety starts with being attentive, prepared, and consistent. I listen carefully to owners’ instructions, make sure I understand each pet’s needs, and take extra care with things like leashes, doors, and surroundings. I pay close attention to body language and how dogs respond to unfamiliar situations, adjusting my approach to keep them comfortable and avoid unnecessary stress. I also prioritize clear communication so owners can feel confident their pets are in good hands!

About: Animals have always been an important part of my life, and I bring a lifetime of hands on experience to every pet I care for. I grew up with cats, have cared for a diabetic dog who required daily medication and consistent monitoring, and currently share my home with an energetic 80 lb dog. These experiences have taught me that every pet has unique needs, routines, and personalities. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, quiet companionship, or requires extra attention, I’ll provide patient, dependable care tailored to help them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. My goal is to treat every pet as if they were my own and give you peace of mind knowing they’re in caring, capable hands. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. As the owner of an 80 lb dog, I’m already committed to daily walks, playtime, feeding, and providing plenty of love and attention. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to reliably care for clients’ pets, whether they need drop-in visits, walks, or overnight care. I enjoy spending time with animals and make it a priority to ensure they feel safe, happy, and comfortable while their owners are away. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to keep their routine as consistent as possible. I follow feeding schedules, provide fresh water, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and plenty of affection while respecting any special instructions or medical needs. I also make sure pets feel safe and comfortable by giving them patience, attention, and companionship. My goal is to provide reliable, loving care so both pets and their owners can feel at ease while they’re apart.
About: When your dog stays with our family, they'll be treated like one of our own. I provide a calm, loving home with a large fenced yard where dogs receive plenty of attention, playtime, exercise, and affection. Because we don't have dogs of our own, every guest gets our full focus and lots of one-on-one care. Fully insured through Pet Sitter Associates for added peace of mind. Being a stay-at-home mom allows me to provide plenty of availability for potty breaks, walks and playtime with your pup. Located in a wonderful neighborhood with lots of walking opportunities. I know leaving your dog can be stressful. My goal is to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away so you can enjoy your trip knowing they're in good hands. If your dog requires more boundaries to keep them safe, they can be set up in a sectioned area in the main part of the house to ensure that they are safe but still get plenty of attention.
“Don was fantastic with my 9-month old puppy. He is reliable and prompt for the drop in visits. I could tell during the meet & great that my pup already liked him. He fed, walked and even did some training (loose leash walking, stay and come) which was very appreciated. Highly recommend!”
About: Hello and welcome to my profile. My name is Monica and I am the proud fur-mom to a 3 year old golden named Mango. I am on rover to help with the needs of pet care as I know it can be quite expensive these days and am looking for something to do in my free time. I currently work at an Animal Hosptial, looking to expand my time with animals. I have 7 years of animal care, including 4 of those years working at a doggie daycare/kennel environment which has allowed me to understand dogs better, and how their body language/behavior is when it comes to being in a kennel environment and in a home environment. My dog Mango and I love to go on walks whether it’s to her favorite swimming area, or just in a field to run around and play ball. We are always out walking no matter the weather! I have experience taking care of animals ranging from puppies all the way to seniors. I have experience doing medications as well for both cats and dogs. I would love to help be a pet sitter for your wonderful fur babies. Don’t hesitate to reach out 😊 Always can fit in time to take your furbaby on a walk if they are energetic, or sit at home and give them attention if they are a homebody. Always love playing ball and being outside no matter the weather. For my own home I do not have a fenced in yard but my golden has a electric fence that she has been trained on to stay in the area when we are outside playing, or just enjoying the weather. If a fenced in yard is something you don’t have, I am always willing to find a quiet dog area to let your pup run, or even be able to take on a nice long walk to burn out their energy
About: I’ve had cats my whole life and a dog for the past 12 years. I’ve helped care for my family pets since I was a kid. I’ve cared for neighborhood pets, including older animals, to feed, walk, and care for them when their families are away. I currently have 3 cats and a dog. I’m currently looking for something part-time to care for pets in my community while I look for full-time employment. My availability is very open currently, for any day or time of the week. I like to make sure pets are well cared for and have someone to keep them company while their families are away. I enjoy spending time hanging out with animals.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Groveland
I can’t recommend Jessica highly enough. I have a reactive dog with a lot of specific needs, routines, and instructions, so finding someone I truly trust with him isn’t always easy. Jessica handled absolutely everything with ease. She was thoughtful, attentive, communicative, and clearly took the time to understand what he needed rather than treating my instructions like a checklist. I never had to worry that something would be overlooked or that she’d put him in a situation he couldn’t handle. She just got it and made caring for a dog who can sometimes be complicated seem completely effortless. Most importantly, I came home to a happy, relaxed dog who had clearly been incredibly well cared for. Having someone I can trust this completely is such a gift. I would book Jessica again in a heartbeat and recommend her without hesitation, especially to anyone with a dog who needs a little extra understanding and care.
We just returned from our vacation yesterday and were extremely happy with the care and attention our 11yr old puppy received from Tayla. His eyes were perfectly cleaned and clear from his eye drops. She administered his medication and kept great records. She has such a great way with Biscuit. He enjoyed her daily visits. We enjoyed the daily photos she posted with a new bow in his head everyday. While away we felt very comfortable knowing he was getting the best care. We would highly recommend her to others in need of their pets care.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Groveland choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit .

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
