“Dustin is great! He handled our nervous and particular dog without any fuss and let my partner and I disconnect for a few days away. Will def book Dustin again!”


“Elizabeth house-sat for us for a few days while we were away and took wonderful care of our fur babies and garden. She was thoughtful, incredibly detail-oriented, and kept us updated with photos throughout our trip. We always felt confident that she was responsive, trustworthy, and attentive to everything at home. It gave us great peace of mind knowing everything was in such capable hands. Thank you, Elizabeth!”
“Danni was great! She communicated well with her plans and timing, gave nice updates on our dog and cat and she went above and beyond to make sure our trash and home cleanliness was taken care of.”

“Joel was gracious and accommodating when I had a last minute need for a dog sitter. He asked thoughtful questions that gave me confidence that he’d take good care of my boys. And he sure did! They had a great time with Joel. He’ll be first on my list for any future dog sitting needs!”

About: Use my promo code CORINP14452 for $20 off your first booking! Hi there! I’ve loved animals my whole life. I’ve had many cats, an Australian Shepard, a Maltese, hamsters, and even a snake. I have volunteered at a dog rescue, and I have experience walking and sitting all sorts of dogs— small, large, young and excited, old and a bit slower, trained, untrained. I've raised dogs and cats and have done the whole shabang- training, potty-training, cleaning up messes, etc. I understand things happen and am patient with them. I'm happy to play with your pets, take dogs on walks, and give them extra love while you are away! I am a clear, honest communicator. I want you to be aware if anything happens you need to know about to ensure the safety of your pet. I have been on your end of Rover, and I know how nerve-wracking it can be to leave your pet with someone you don’t know very well. So I will send consistent updates and pictures, and be available for any questions from you. I can’t wait to meet your furbaby! I will treat them as my own 🩵 I work from home and have a very flexible schedule. I have a few meetings spread through the day, but most of the time, I can make drop ins/walks work with whatever schedule is needed. And if I am dog sitting, I will be home all day since I work from home. At my home, I have a fenced in yard. I will supervise any outside time. I will make sure the leash and collar are secured before going on a walk. I don’t put my face in their face, and allow them to take the lead on contact and interaction. I know I’m a stranger to them at the beginning, and know trust needs to be built!
“Nicole is absolutely 💯 the best dog sitter!! She is gentle, kind, and communicates well sending updates and pictures of my fur baby. She took time to make sure my anxious pup was comfortable and well cared for.”

“Second time we asked Carrie to watch our dogs and she was very easy to coordinate with and took good care of our more sensitive senior dog. She sent plenty of photos while we were on our trip which we loved. Our dogs were very happy when we got home. Definitely recommend booking with Carrie!”

About: I have grown up with dogs my entire life and feel very comfortable around them and very in-tune to their needs. I also worked for Midtown Mutts for a year prior to Covid and going back to school (many of the dogs I walked then are shown in my gallery). Not only do I view pets as family members and a whole lot of fun, I also view them as lifelong friends and would take special care that they are always safe, comfortable, happy, and loved! I am familiar with many different breeds and know what different needs this entitles for each. I am available for specific needs as requested by the owner, such as extra walks or special diets and will respect these. I love to take dogs on runs, to the dog park, or on long hikes if the owner permits. I hope you will consider me for your next dogsitting need! I am currently working from home and self-employed, so I am very flexible with my hours, available nights or weekends if needed, and can work around tricky schedules. I have a daily routine with my own dog and cat, so am very aware of pet routines and their importance. I care for pets by following their established routines as closely as possible and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for in their own environment. I pay close attention to each pet’s individual needs, personality, and energy level, whether that means active play and walks or a quieter, more relaxed approach. In a client’s home, I focus on maintaining consistency—feeding on schedule, refreshing water, administering care as instructed, cleaning litter boxes or pet areas, and providing companionship and enrichment. I respect the home and any specific instructions provided, and I make sure pets get attention, reassurance, and positive interaction while their owners are away. I am attentive to pet behavior and wellbeing, communicate clearly with owners, and will provide updates as requested so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands. My goal is for pets to feel secure and cared for, and for owners to feel peace of mind.
“We are very thankful for Matt house and pet sitting during our vacation. It was a 10 day trip and its good to have peace of mind that someone like Matti is caring for our two pets. Taking out dog Bruno to the dog park was great for a high energy pup. We will definitely book him again!”

About: I was previously a professional dog trainer for a year at a facility and plan to make it part of my future! I am now a vet assistant, as I work on finishing my schooling for my certification in vet tech. I have always been very passionate about animals and have many of my own. I have pet sat many friends and neighbors animals over the years doing task such as feeding, bathing, providing stimulation, giving medication, and more. I love to help out any way I can and will ensure your furry companions will always be safe and happy in my care:) I am a full-time dog trainer and have Thursday and Fridays off that I can fully dedicate to your furry friends. I am also available any time after 5 any other day that is available on my calendar. I will ensure all animals will be very closely supervised (even in fenced areas), and attended to however they may need. I will do quick health checks before and after handling the animal.
“Loved having Ayanna watch our 2 dogs for a couple days. She is incredibly caring with them and communicative with us to coordinate and get updates. Will definitely be hiring again!”

“Jenna was great! Gave me updates all weekend not just of my kitty eating but of her getting lap time which made me feel reassured she was being taken care of and loved. Would def hire her again!”

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.

“Jessica is seriously the best! I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again….hands down the most amazing sitter we have ever, ever had! You’d be crazy not to have her watch your pets for you! She’s got us as forever customers! 👌🏻🤘🏻🙏🙌🏻🤩”
“We usually do drop ins for our kitties but did house sit this time and it worked out amazing! Jazmine is responsible, dependable, and communicative. We get a pretty detailed recap of the day and lots of videos and pictures. Of course the kitties loved it and housesit worked a lot better for my cat that picks at his food throughout the day. We didn’t have to worry at all. Ty Jazmine you are the best!!”

“Alma did a wonderful job taking care of our fur babies. She was on time to check on them and feed them. And let them out for their potty breaks. Definitely would use her again. Highly recommend Frankie & Kahula say Thank you 🐾🐾 until next time.”
“Brittany is a responsible, caring, efficient, and thorough dog sitter and house sitter. Lucas and I are completely co-dependent. Brittany took excellent care of Lucas. They totally bonded. She made me feel relaxed and confident about her caring for Lucas the 2 weeks I was gone...by continually staying in touch with me, sending photos, answering questions I had. I would hire her again in a heartbeat.”

“Aicha did very well with our dogs. They seemed to like her after they got to know her. And when our outing lasted longer than we expected she offered to stay later till we got back. We will look her up next time we are in the area. Highly recommended.”


“Sophia stayed with my dog and cat for a long weekend and shared daily photo updates while I was away. She was kind and respectful of my home, and everything was in good shape when I returned. I appreciate her help and care during the stay.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Old Sacramento
Joel was great at communicating before and during the stay to make sure everything was good to go. He sent pictures of our pup every day and gave us a daily update. Our pup had some health issues come up a couple days before Joel’s stay with him, and Joel was extremely understanding and wrote down the stuff he needed to do to take care of our dog’s issue. We came home to a happy, healthy pup!

Jenna did an amazing job with my 2 cats! They’re both very shy and I was so pleased she took the time to make sure they were happy and healthy and got them to push through their shyness during her time there. I felt really at ease with her because she is experienced with cats. My shy kitties warmed up to her and were healthy and happy when I returned from my 10 day trip! I’m definitely planning on booking her again!

Jaclyn housesat for us for several nights in October and she did a great job caring for our cat and dog. She left our house tidy and both pets were very healthy and happy upon our return! She also provided thoughtful updates throughout her stay. Thank you, Jaclyn!

Anthony has been watching our dog, Cooper, for around a year now. Cooper is anxious around new people and often barks at strangers. Anthony was incredibly patient, taking the time to get to know Cooper before his first stay. Now they are buddies. Anthony is easy to communicate with and knows how to help nervous dogs feel at ease. We most recently left Cooper with Anthony for two weeks. I had no concerns because Cooper was in the best of hands. I highly recommend Anthony’s dog sitting services.

By far the best dog sitter I’ve ever had and I’ve had many. Two picture updates each day, managed a problem without any drama, the house was spotless, amazing communication, and she left a thank you note thanking me for her help. Very professional and our dogs LOVED her. Highly highly recommend.

Stephanie was great with my two large husky dogs! She checked in with pictures and fun updates without me having to ask for them. It can be hard especially with a new sitter so it was nice when I had picked up my phone to check on them, there were already updates and messages so I didn’t have to worry. She clearly loves animals, enjoys their company, and takes good care of them. My dogs were happy dogs when I got home. She followed all the instructions, took excellent care of my house, was on time, and great at communicating. My pups were happy to have her and I was able to enjoy my vacation without worry.

Daniella was 10/10. Not only did she work around our moving schedule last minute, but we didn’t feel like we had to worry or constantly check in on her while house/pet sitting. We could trust that our pets were safe and cared for. She followed all instructions, was really communicative, and sent us pictures of all the fun she had with them. Will absolutely book again.

Matthew was wonderful! He stepped in on very short notice for a one night stay and we felt completely at ease leaving our dogs with him. He sent frequent picture updates, and the dogs were clearly happy and well cared for. We'd book him again in a heartbeat - highly recommend!
