“Sabrina is a joy to work with to watch our lil dude Nico. Her communication is fantastic and she always went the extra mile to ensure he was well-cared for. We had complete ease of mind being away and knowing that he received lots of love, cuddles and care.”

“This was our first time using Rover, and finding Bryce truly made a difference. Our three dogs have very distinct personalities, and it was impressive to see each one warm up to him. Typically, our dogs bark at new people, but Bryce’s calm and confident demeanor kept them relaxed and non-reactive. He made them feel safe and cared for, which means a lot to us. We also appreciated the daily pictures and updates, which gave us peace of mind, and he left our home just as we had left it. Without a doubt, we will continue to rely on Bryce for our pet care needs.”

“So thankful for Jeannette’s help as we were away for our wedding. We met her before this weekend and showed her our home and introduced her to our puppy, which gave us an opportunity to get to know her. Having someone come into your home and watch your pets can be stressful, but working with Jeannette was stress free! We would definitely recommend her to anyone wanting their fur babies cared after dearly!”

“Sienna did a fantastic job caring for our husky dog. She also did a terrific job watering all our yard plants and she washed the bedding & towels before she left! Highly recommend!”


About: Having animals ranging in all ages since I was 5 has definitely helped but also helping friends and family since the age of 13 has been the best experience. I am available 24/7, our animals are just as important as us so I believe in having time for them whenever you or them may need it. Always following directions given by owner and doing thorough checks throughout the time I am with your 4 legged family. Staying aware of surroundings when out and about in walks.
About: Not only do I have 10 years of experience of pet sitting, I have experience working with shelter dogs. I’ve been with Placer SPCA as a volunteer for many years. I work with fearful, excitable, shy and even reactive dogs on a weekly basis. I make sure to give them the best care I can provide. I have plenty of free time and my shelter schedule is very flexible! I spend most of my time caring for pets or working with animals. I am someone that you can contact last minute for pet sitting! I will make sure that your pet gets all the love, care and attention your best friend could possibly need. I provide mostly overnight care, in which I make sure your pup is cared for in the same way you do every day. Building trust is very important to me, I’ll make sure to send pictures of your dog (or other animals) along with a report of how they are doing and any other info you may need.

“Stephanie was very caring with my senior dog, asked for directions on how to best care for her and kept me updated with pictures. She’s conscientious and caring, must haves for a dog sitter. 💕”

“Sophia was amazing My dogs were treated as if they were her own She has a Natural gift as both my dogs related to her immediately She was very prompt in arrival and extremely courteous and kind by sending us photos while we were gone and keeping us abreast of every situation We trusted her 100% with our home and our dogs and we couldn’t be happier I highly recommend her as she is probably one of the best dog sitters you might find”

“Carla was INCREDIBLE! She sent us many photo updates of her and our dog which made our trip out of town just that much sweeter. She also left the house cleaner than she found it! Highly recommend booking with Carla!”

About: I have experience caring for lots of animals like cats and dogs. I had to help raise our kittens after their mom died when they were two weeks old. I have basic experience with animal care, special diets and medication, and showing them love and attention! I work part time several days a week during the day. Typically 6 hour days when I’m pet sitting. Depending on location, might be able to work something out if your pets can’t be home alone that long. I tend to spend time with the animals where I can be around them, such as being in the living room if they’re inside animals or checking on them often if they’re outdoors. Try to follow whatever schedule the animal needs to the best of my ability (such as feeding times or walks).

“It’s easy to tell that the dogs had another amazing time since have looked for Ginger every day so far (day 3 since we’ve been home). Such peace of mind that we have happy dogs and tidy home after time away.”

“Sherilyn cared for my cats and my house for 4 days while I was away. It was a pleasure to hand my loved ones over to her as she is kind, knowledgeable about cats and kept in touch with me during those 4 days. I couldn't have felt more secure with her sitting my home. She is honest, thoughtful about my privacy, my home as my sanctuary and when I came home the house that was as I left it, clean and not a thing out of place. I wouldn't hesitate, not even for a second, to have her back in the future.”

About: As a former veterinary assistant with hands-on experience in animal care, I’m confident in handling pets of all ages, including administering medications and senior care. I’m calm and reliable, and I treat every animal like my own. Whether your pet needs cuddles, exercise, or special attention, I provide loving, professional care you can count on. I’m currently pursuing my Bachelor’s degree online, which gives me a flexible schedule. I have plenty of time to prioritize your pet’s needs and provide consistent, loving care. In clients' homes, I follow all care instructions closely—feeding, fresh water, playtime, litter cleanup, and medication if needed. I ensure pets feel safe, loved, and stress-free.
“by FAR the best dog sitter/housesitter! Hannah is personable, responsive and caring. We trust her with our pet and our home. And….she even was able to provide training tips for our doggie!”


“Omg thank u soooo much Deanna. My dogs were in such good moods when I came home- soft and happy! Thank you for taking care of everything 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏 one of my boys needs extra behavioral attention on walks. Deanna was fantastic. I highly recommend. She’s a gem!!!!”

About: I grew up in a home filled with both dogs and cats, which sparked my lifelong love for animals. I’ve been pet sitting for 8 years, gaining hands-on experience with pets of all ages and temperaments. My mom was a dog sitter for Rover, and by helping her, I learned invaluable skills in animal care and behavior. In high school, I took it a step further by running my own pet sitting business, building trust with clients and ensuring their pets were happy, healthy, and safe. My experience includes caring for puppies, senior pets, and administering basic medications, making me well-equipped to meet a variety of pet care needs. I am a dedicated full-time student-athlete with a flexible schedule, available in the mornings, midday, and evenings to walk, feed, and care for your pets. My availability is consistent Sunday through Thursday, with occasional openings on Fridays and Saturdays. I prioritize safety, trust, and creating a comfortable environment for pets while in my care. I follow all instructions provided by the client, ensuring their routines are maintained to reduce stress. Whether it’s feeding, walking, or playtime, I stay attentive to the pet’s needs and behavior, keeping an eye out for any signs of discomfort or distress. I treat every client’s home with the utmost respect, leaving it just as I found it. My goal is to provide pets with a safe, loving, and familiar environment so both they and their owners can feel at ease.

Jeannette was absolutely fantastic! She sat for our two dogs and watched over our house, bird feeders, chickens, and farm at the same time! She provided lots of updates and wonderful photos every day, allowing us to relax and fully enjoy our vacation! Highly recommend and will absolutely use again!!! PS One of our dogs, Timothy, is a rescue from a sheriff raid situation - he is still wary and skittish around strangers, but after just a few days, Timmy allowed Jennette to cuddle and brush him, telling me she is a true dog whisperer!
