“As first-time Rover users, we chose Alexandra and all we can say is Alexandra is the best! She is extremely prompt & communicative and was eager to help us navigate the app and Rover support when we realized we were being charged holiday fee outside of the holiday period. You can tell she genuinely cares about the pets she cares for while the owners are away. Thanks Alex!”

About: I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments for over 10 years. I’m experienced with puppies, senior dogs, feeding routines, walks, bathing, and giving lots of love and attention. Pet care fits easily into my routine. I currently don’t work but I am enrolled in college so I have flexible availability during weekdays and weekends for boarding, walks, and drop-ins. I provide a safe, calm, and clean environment. I have a fenced yard and closely supervise pets at all times. I follow instructions carefully and can crate pets if needed.

About: Ever since I was 10 I've taken care of dogs. I have experience in many different ages of dogs from newborn puppies to full grown. Since it is summer your pets will always fit in my schedule! Saturday and Sunday will be the only days I can't fit your pets in. I will always be willing to feed, clean, play and walk with your pets if they need it. I can stay overnight too as well.

About: I’ve loved dogs and animals for as long as I can remember. Growing up, I spent time around my aunt’s Golden Retriever and was always excited to meet and spend time with animals. In high school, I had my own Chihuahua named Aurora, which gave me experience with daily feeding, care, and companionship. I also fostered a Pit Bull from a local animal shelter during a time when the shelter was overcrowded and needed temporary foster homes. While living in Hawaii, I helped care for my cousin’s Chihuahua, Brownie, as part of my everyday routine. I fed her, cleaned up after her, spent time with her, and took her on walks, beach outings, and car rides. More recently, I’ve spent time caring for a senior rescue Pit Bull, Tyson, who has experienced neglect and multiple owners. My experiences have taught me that every dog deserves patience, kindness, and understanding. I enjoy helping pets feel safe, comfortable, loved, and cared for while their families are away. I currently have an open schedule for the summer and am available throughout June, July, and most of August. This flexibility allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. Whether your dog needs walks, drop-in visits, playtime, feeding, or companionship, I can provide reliable care that fits your pet’s routine. I also understand that pet care needs can vary, so I do my best to accommodate scheduling requests whenever possible. I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs and making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while their owners are away. I’ve been around dogs of different breeds and personalities, including Chihuahuas, Pit Bulls, and Huskies. Whether it’s playtime, walks, feeding, or simply keeping them company, I’ll care for your pet as if they were my own and keep you updated throughout their stay.
“Scott was great! Kept me up to date on the puppies ealks, play dates and and I can see the doggies were happy after a day with him. Thank you so much! Would book again 100%”

“Shang was amazing with my dogs. She was always on time and communicated when she arrived at my house. One of my dogs requires more time to get comfortable with and Shang was very patient with him. She understood their own comfortability levels which allowed them to trust her. I can tell that the dogs are fond of her from the smiles in the photos she sends me! Shang is reliable, caring and I would recommend her to anyone looking for help with the pups!”

About: There's something about caring for dogs and cats that brings my heart alive. There's nothing I'd rather do than care lovingly attentively for these animals. I am a retired English teacher, and my time is unlimited. I prefer long term, overnight sitting in your home. I am fit and love walking and playing with your loved one. I treat them as if they were my own. Having been raised caring for my families dogs, cats, horses, cows, ducks, fish, and even peacocks, I am most comfortable with animals. I follow instructions, administer medicine when necessary, and leave your home in perfect condition as you left it. Some folks say I'm too old to do this...I know I'm not. I can walk 2 miles easily with dogs. I have described my affection for dogs and cats which I hope reflects the care I will provide, and I would be so pleased to serve you.

“My first rover experience with Jennifer went very well! She is super friendly and was patient with my shy pup. I will definitely recommend her and use her services again :)”


About: I have worked with cats and dogs of all ages & sizes for the past 3 years with my previous employer, McCulloch Pet Sitting located in Las Vegas, NV. I recently have moved to Sacramento and am looking to continue pet sitting. I am Cat & Dog CPR & First Aid certified through American Red Cross. I currently am available for drop in visits and walks as of right now. Availability for overnight stays may open up in the near future. I am comfortable with pets of all kinds and will gladly perform proper feeding, walking and playing routines to ensure that they are well taken care of in the times requested.

About: What sets me apart is my experience with dogs of all ages, sizes, and energy levels. I fostered puppies and adult dogs for four years, which gave me hands-on experience caring for dogs with different personalities, needs, and backgrounds. I also grew up with working dogs, so I am very comfortable handling high-energy breeds and understand the exercise, structure, and attention they require. Whether it's a playful puppy, an active working dog, or a senior pet needing extra patience and care, I adapt to each animal's individual needs. I am confident handling dogs on walks and prioritize safety, consistency, and positive interactions. I am comfortable working with reactive dogs as well :) I am a full time student looking to fill my summer by taking care pets instead of adopting more! I have extremely open availability, whatever your pet needs Ill be there. I wholeheartedly understand the anxiety and stress that can come with leaving your pet in someone else's care, I have those same feelings when it comes to my own pets. Because of that, I will treat your pet as if they were my own, providing them with the same love, attention, and care that I would expect for my animals. Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness, along with your peace of mind, are always my top priorities. While I am caring for your pet, I will be readily available by text or phone and happy to provide updates, photos, and videos to help you feel connected and reassured while you're away. 🐾
About: I care deeply about every pet’s wellbeing, drawing from experience caring for people and animals to give each one gentle, attentive, and truly loving support. My flexible schedule gives me plenty of time to care for your pets. I offer weekend boarding and weekday care after 3 pm, with earlier times available upon request. We treat our pet like family and yours will be no exception. Trust that your pet will have company and plenty of space to play.
“Raquel was a real treat to meet! She was great with my dog, Molly and was patient with my constant scheduling modifications. Raquel is very punctual with the times I selected and walks through the door at that time. Not a moment to soon or a moment too late. I am very pleased with Raquel's professionalism. I have found Molly's walker!”


“Carrie is great ! She responds quickly to messages and was able to help me out with my 2 dobermans with little notice. Check-ins at my house, feeding, and took them on an extra long walk. She also updates me with pictures and let me know when she arrived and left. I look forward to using Carrie for all my doggy needs. Thanks Carrie!”

“Natalie is so kind, patient, and reliable. My dog Sage is a rescue dog and needs a very calm, gentle, and consistent approach. She’s never hesitated to make my dog feel comfortable, I will continue to book with Natalie whenever I need her to help me out with Sage! She’s great.”


About: With 8 years of experience caring for dogs and cats, I treat every pet like a member of my own family. I've cared for both kittens and puppies under a year old, as well as senior dogs aged 10 and up. Staying at home allows me to dedicate my time and attention to your furry friends, just like I do with my own beloved dog. Your pet's happiness and well-being are my top priorities! I'm like a pet concierge, but instead of booking spa days, I'm giving belly rubs, playing fetch and going on walkies. I am very flexible and can watch/ walk your pets from daily and on weekends. Depending on my availability I can care for your baby up to a week if needed. After walking your pets, I usually ask where and how you would like me to leave you pets at home whether it be their crate, just in home or outside in their yards. For caring at my own home for your pets be rest assured that they will be receiving the upmost attention and no leaving their side as I stay at home and care for my own pup who is 1.

“I highly recommend Nicole taking care of your four legged babies.... She is amazing! She did a great job taking care of my German Shepherd. She is very punctual and I appreciate that she brought treats for Jax that he likes. Thanks again.”

Johnson Heights dog parents share their Rover experiences
Kalina has definitely exceeded my expectations as a dog walker. She is responsible, communicative, and very caring/loving towards my fur babies. At first contact, she responded very quickly and was willing to meet the next day on such short notice. Kalina was very patient with my boy, Ghost, especially when he hid under the bed for 30 mins during the first scheduled walk. She contacted me immediately to figure out next steps. Kalina wanted to respect my dog's comfortability, which I very much appreciated. The same day, Ghost warmed up to her and both of my dogs ended up enjoying the outdoors. Kalina made sure to communicate when she arrived at the house and left, also included pictures for me to see. I can tell that both Ghost and Hazel love her! Kalina did such an amazing job and I would recommend her to anyone seeking help with their fur babies. They are in great hands with her!
