“Sydney was great with our very anxious and high-strung girl. She's a big dog, so it takes a lot of confidence to take that on, and I appreciate that. She also takes amazing dog pictures!”

“Sofia was lovely with our small elderly dog! She took him along on a few of her outings and was attentive to his needs, making sure to give him his meds. I would use her again!”

Emme N.

“We LOVED having Alex as Ginger’s sitter. Alex took the time to learn about Ginger’s habits & needs (food, separation anxiety). They have daily updates and left our house spotless. Thanks so much, Alex!”

About: I am experienced with caring for all kinds of dogs. I have access to many dog parks and walk them up to 5 times a day. I adapt to the pet’s needs to give them the best care. I have a golden retriever (6 mo.) and a labradoodle (10 yrs). My golden (Sunny) is super friendly and loves to make friends! I ensure that your pet’s needs are met and they have the highest form of care. I’m a junior at the University of California, Davis. I have a flexible schedule with my course work that allows me to be fully engaged with the dogs in my care. I live in a gated community so pets can’t easily get out. I take my puppy on long walks at the Davis Arboretum and have a dog park where I live which ensures they are getting their exercise and playtime. My apartment is clean for health safety. If I am staying at the owner’s home, I will apply the owner’s directions.

About: Hi! My name is Tenaya! I grew up around animals and now I have a cat named Gnocchi. I worked as a veterinary assistant for three years, so I'm comfortable with animals of all ages and I'm capable of administering medications. I can also take care of aggressive or anxious dogs, and I’m happy to help reinforce good behavior for pets in training. I also have experience taking care of a range of exotic animals from working at an animal sanctuary. As someone who works from home, I have a lot of flexibility in my schedule! I can usually adjust my work hours to make time for your pet and their needs. I can also generally accept same-day bookings, especially for drop in visits or walks. As someone who has worked with animals for several years, I understand that each pet is unique and may require special care and attention. I really love animals and will do my best to care for your pet as you would!

“Mehma has house sat my two dogs several times now (and hopefully many more times in the future). My dogs can be slow to warm up to new people, but it was love at first sight… although both have some separation anxiety, Mehma gives the calmest vibes and I think they really feel comfortable with her. She is also a great guest and always tidies up after herself. Mehma is trustworthy, flexible, dependable, and great with dogs, and I recommend her wholeheartedly!”

About: I have cared for a wide range of animals since my childhood on a small family farm. I have bottle fed kittens to goats, trained puppies to ducks, and cared for little piglets to senior dogs. I also have some experience with medical procedures with dogs and cats, to farm animals. Experience with cats with diabetes, pets with blindness, deafness, and immobility. I enjoy caring for animals of all shapes and sizes and good care and enrichment is always my top priority! I like to check on my animals and animals I’m caring for a minimum of 3 times a day for 30 minutes each. With cats I like to spend time playing, setting up enrichment activities, and learning how they are most comfortable. With dogs I like to do a minimum of 3 walks a day followed by some of their favorite activities. I believe pets should be checked on morning, afternoon and evening at minimum. I like to follow the routine of the pets parents to a T so as to not disturb the pets while their families are gone. I think having a routine is important for a pet especially when their people/family are gone.

“Ally came to my house to take care of my 12-week-old puppy while I was attending a wedding. She has visited with my puppy before, and when Ally walked into the house, my puppy was overjoyed to see her! Ally is highly attuned to my dog's needs. She plays games, cuddles, feeds, and even trains my puppy. While she was with my puppy, she sent me photos and updates, which were such a comfort! My house was clean and organized when I came home almost nine hours later, and my puppy was happy and relaxed. Ally is a rare gem!”

Linda M.

“Hernan took excellent care of Bailey, our golden retriever. Hernan was an excellent communicator. He provided updates and photos, walked and played ball with Bailey. He stayed at our home and was an excellent and tidy guest. We would definitely use Hernan again!”

About: I’ve grown up around cats and dogs my whole life. I make sure to respect the needs of each animal that I am around and only interact with them in ways that they’re comfortable with. I also have experience training dogs and would love to help with that if you’d like. I work from home most days so I have very flexible hours! :) I am a Neuroscience PhD student and can do pretty much all of my work remotely. I am very flexible with hours and will be able to give your pet as much attention as they need ! I can help however you need- I’d be happy to stay overnight if your pet needs it, though I can’t stay 24/7 since I have my own cat to take care of at home. I can take dogs on walks and give them lots of attention and play time. Or if your pet is more reclusive I can just provide some company as we exist in the same room. I’m super flexible!

“Rachel was amazing. She met with us on short notice and stayed with our dogs. We received messages and pictures. First time using Rover.com, highly recommend, and will definetly use the service again.”

“Marissa provided housesitting and care for our shy cat Maggie—she was wonderful! She knew how to connect with Maggie, and was very responsive and responsible while we were away, sending multiple photos and updates. Maggie seemed to be very comfortable with Marissa, and so were we!”

“We got introduced to Esmerilda through a mutual connection and from the moment we met her we knew she’d be a great fit for our felines! As an aspiring veterinarian, Esmerilda has great attention to detail and is confident in handling pets with special needs or complicated medical demands. We had her house/pet sit for us for 10 days while we were out of the country and never once did we have a worry about how things were going. It’s great that we have found our best friends’ new best friend!”

About: I have grown up with both dogs and cats my entire life! I’ve done in-house dog sitting for family friends for close to a year now, and have been doing drop-in pet sitting since middle school! The safety and comfort of your pets is my top priority. I’m a current college senior, and have a lot of flexibility in my schedule! I can drop by in the mornings before my classes, between them, and come check on your fur babies in the evenings as well! I want to make sure that your pets still feel comfortable in their environment and aim to be able to keep them on their usual walking, feeding, and crate schedule while you are away!

About: I’ve taken care of my fur baby husky, Shiloh (chaidow as his nickname) for 7+ years but now I am in college I miss my furry friend! I have primarily worked with medium to large dogs however I am capable of taking care of smaller breeds. I also am able to provide services to animals of all ages and can administer oral medication if needed. ☺️ I am currently a first year college student and while it might seem like a busy time of the year, I am actually available from Monday-Friday evenings for daily drop ins, dog walking, or potty breaks and Friday-Sunday for any house sitting events to suffice your daycare needs! If you have a specific time slot you are looking for feel free to reach out and I can try to accommodate as best I can. When it comes to taking care of your furry friend, I make sure to check in with the owner if there are any specific safety precautions before taking any action of my own. I unfortunately cannot do daycare in my living space because I live in an apartment but I am willing to work inside the homes of the owner :)

About: Animals have been a huge part of my life since I was born. I treat every pet I take care of as my own fur baby! I have experience caring for animals of every age range- from puppies to senior pets! I will work with your schedule! My current schedule has a very open availability in the mornings and afternoons! Your pet is my priority and I will ensure that your goals are met. I have multiple years of experience and I have advanced pet care skills. I am happy to handle any environment or situation and will prioritize your pets safety in every scenario.

“Cheryl was so the thoughtful and constantly sent me updates. She took great care of our dog and we look forward to using her again in the future!”
