About: As someone who grew up with dogs, both small and large, I've learned what it takes to make sure the puppies are well cared for, between giving them the right food, making sure they go on walks, and grooming. Our pets are our best friends and so we should take the greatest care of them, and I'm willing to do that for all animals alike. I'm currently a part time worker both on weekends and weekdays and have lots of time to dedicate to taking care of pets. The only time I would not be able to offer my services is dueing weekends. In my home, I have a fenced yard to allow for our big huskies to have space to play and run, offering them toys that I know would keep them entertained. I also make sure to clean my dogs and ensure they eat healthily.
About: I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life, I’m a HUGE animal lover, I’m currently in the Penn Foster Veterinary Technician Online Program and loving every minute of it! I’ve dog sat and farm sat for previous coworkers and still do! I have 3 years Veterinary Assistant experience and I'm familiar with dogs body language. I currently don’t have a job right now, nobodies hiring! I have a wide open schedule and can be with your pups all day if needed. I can’t dog sit at my house so it will always have to be your house, but I will do anything you need me to in order for it to be a smooth process. I can walk your dogs if that’s okay with you, I’ll play with them, and spoil them while you’re away!
“Brandon did an excellent job with poncho making sure he got his pee breaks and avoiding other dogs . He kept poncho interested despite poncho being tired and wanting to come back home .”

About: With 20+ years caring for dogs of all ages and breeds, I love puppies, seniors, moms with litters, protective breeds and everything in between. I have a soft spot for rescues, foster dogs, and bonded pairs, giving every furry friend the love and attention they deserve. I’ve also worked with show dogs and have 5+ years of whelping experience, making sure moms and pups thrive. Your pets aren’t just safe with me—they’re loved. 💝 Need help with a vet visit or checkup? I can take care of that too! 🥰 I am currently providing full time doggie & pet care services from my family farm in Wilton. So you can rest assured your loving companion will receive lots of attention, loves, & playtime while staying with our family. 🥰 Our quaint country home is nestled into the heart of Wilton, CA. Your doggie will enjoy lots of freedom to run & play on our 20 fenced acres and lots of exploring with my children and I. We treat all of our pet guests as though they are our own fur babies and truly offer lots of love, affection and playful interaction daily. Currently our pet guests stay inside our house with us when they are not out and about playing and exploring. We keep our home at 75* so you can rest assured they will be comfy cozy on these hot Summer days or those cool Winter nights. You can ask any of my amazing past or repeat clients — when I say your dog will be comfortable, cared for, and loved like one of my own, I truly mean it. 🥰 So many have told me that the love and attention their pets receive here have raised the bar for what they expect in pet care — and that means the world to me. ❤️ Because every dog deserves to feel at home — even when you’re away. 🐾
“Aicha was really great with our very senior dog. she got him out and walking and he seemed very happy to be in her company. I'm glad she was free to take care of him while we were at work.”

“I don’t know what we’d do without Hans! Probably never be able to leave town again! He’s wonderful with our leash reactive anxious mess, and we came home to a dog who heeled much better than when we left!”

About: A dog’s trust is earned, and I’ve had many experiences with dogs of various sizes, temperaments and ages. I volunteer at an animal shelter, which has allowed me to pick up on behaviors and quirks, and improved my ability to adapt to anything unpredictable. Safety and comfortability is my utmost priority, but that doesn’t mean I won’t try my hardest to make sure your dog is having fun! I am a uni student, so my free time may vary depending on the day. However I am pretty flexible with time when I’m not commuting or in class, as school is my biggest obligation at the moment. I am easy to reach so I can also send more updates when there’s changes in my schedule. I value safety and comfortability as I believe pets should be regarded on the same level as children. Pets are a lifelong commitment and responsibility, without safety, they can’t feel comfortable. I truly believe animals are the happiest when they feel safe. I currently have a cat who stays indoors but is given the opportunity to go outdoors when the weather is nice (under supervision). She has plenty of toys to keep her mind stimulated, places to hide if she feels overwhelmed, and comfy areas for her to snooze in.
“Liz has been great with Daisy! She is very responsive to messages and questions, always responding within a few minutes. She takes great pictures and provides details of Daisy's walk. It's very reassuring to have someone I can trust to take care of my baby!”

About: My experience comes from owning not just dogs (XL-XS) and cats, but many animals in my lifetime. To me, living with these animals is the best way to gain experience. I have also done many house sitting jobs for people with lots of pets, and it’s something I genuinely enjoy doing. To me, the most important thing is establishing trust with your sitter, and I am a guaranteed safe person to trust any animal with. I’m great at reading animal body language and typically do well with all pets. I work at Panera, so my hours are not crazy, and never are usually longer than 4 hours, so pet sitting works great with my schedule. My college is also online so that doesn’t effect my schedule for the most part. In a clients home, it’s important to follow all of the instructions they provide, while also making their pets feel as if the owners never left.
About: I had a beagle from age 6 to 22. From 22 to 36 I had a Maine Coon. I currently have 2 cute ginger cats and a fat grey and white cat. Everyone was a rescue! I own a small business and work from home. I can get to your home in the Elk Grove area very easily and quickly to visit with your critters. We prepare fresh meals for our cats. We haver cat backpacks and crates to transport them around. They like to visit outside and pretend they are still wild. One likes to explore. The other two are afraid of their shadows.
About: Hi! I’m Terrell, you can call me Tee, your go-to pet caretaker with a passion for all animals big and small. Beyond dogs, I have experience with cats, goats, chickens, and more! I love spending time with each pet, understanding their personalities, and giving them the specific care they need. From playful puppies to gentle goats, I’m here to keep your animal family happy, healthy, and loved. Reach out—I’d love to meet your crew! I’m currently working part-time and live on a farm surrounded by animals, so I have a flexible schedule that’s all about caring for animals!

Living on a farm gives me a deep respect for animals’ unique needs and routines. I have a secure, fenced yard and plenty of space for playtime. If boarding at my farm is the right fit for your pet, they’ll get a taste of peaceful farm life. Otherwise, I’m happy to come to your home so your pet can feel safe in their familiar space.

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Herald. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Herald.

Every walker 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.

Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Herald. On Rover:
- 93% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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 walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and walkers on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement walker.
