“My dog enjoyed walking with Nikki!!”


About: Hello! I have taken care of dogs since 2009 with various experiences with my personal pets and many other family members pets. My uncle used to be a K9 police dog trainer and has many personal pets. Through him, i've been exposed to various sizes, mentalities, and activity limits. My experiences with big dogs like Great Danes and intelligent dogs like Belgian Malinois give me the confidence to handle any pets! I also have experienced dogs that can be easily spooked and might produce scary looking body language, allowing me to handle de-escalation while respecting the pet. Overall, I have seen all types of dogs and am equipped to give your pets a fun experience! I am currently working a day shift on UC Davis campus but can be available after 4:30pm on weekdays and anytime works on the weekends! I can take care of pets in a clients home by providing treats if allowed and using the environment of the clients home to entertain their pet. I won't be able to care for pets in my own because I don't have proper space, but I can walk them around the neighborhood!

“Esmerilda took great care of Finn. Prompt and very good communication. She was very patient and caring. The feedback I received from Finns dog friend's were all positive. I would highly recommend Esmerilda on any dog services.”


“I can’t give her enough stars! Maddie was very professional, met me the night before, interacted with my dog and spent the full 30 min with him for both of the walks. I highly recommend her.”


About: I have been around pets my entire life. I have pet sat for many of my friends and family members. I am reliable, flexible, and love all types of animals! I am about to graduate from UC Davis with a degree in Human Biology! I love being around pets and wanted to add an extra income this summer before pursuing grad school. I currently have a calico cat and a golden retriever. I love taking my dog for morning walks and cuddling with my cat at night.

“This was my first time ever using Rover or hiring a dog walker and Nora was AMAZING!! She was so wonderful with my senior lab and flexible with her needs. Thank you for taking such great care of her while I was away!”


About: I’ve taken care of dog for with more than 5 years. I personally have two dogs in the house which are 10 lbs and 30 lbs. I’ve successfully trained 3 puppies in the past 5 years and also fostered before for a rescue. I’ve also been providing boarding service for my friends with at least 6 dogs, pictures are included in my profile. All the dogs will be separated when I’m out, and basic training can be provided if owner requests. I’ve successfully taking care of 5 dogs at one time including two puppies. I’m a recent graduate at UC Davis, and currently WFH all day. I will walk dogs twice a day and give them bathroom break at least 4-5 times every day. I have a fenced yard in the house. All the dogs will be separated when I’m not at home. For safety reasons, dogs will stay in the crate when humans are not around but they can be on furniture once humans are presented.

About: Hi! My name is Tenaya and I'm currently a graduate student at UC Davis. 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 also have experience taking care of a range of exotic animals from working at an animal sanctuary. As a student, I have a lot of flexibility in my schedule! I can usually create availability during the day, depending on your pet's needs. 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!

“Devi communicated well before, during, and after walking our dog; and she took great care of our dog. Thank you, Devi!”

About: I've always been an animal lover and hope to pursue veterinary medicine as a career. I've spent a lot of time around dogs and cats, and consider myself very qualified to handle people's pets. I'm home from college from the summer and have ample time on my hands, which gives me plenty of flexibility to schedule time to take care of your pets! I have one small friendly dog that mostly stays inside (she's very lazy)and a large fenced in yard. I always watch my dog when I take her out to go to the bathroom just in case she somehow tries to escape or attempts to eat something she shouldn't be.

About: I grew up around dogs, and always knew I would want one of my own. I finally adopted my beagle rescue mix, Busy, three years ago! Being a dog mom has deepened my love for all creatures and I value any time I get to spend with all types of furry friends! I have experience with puppy training, administering medications, senior care, and more :) I am a graduate student at UCD currently on summer break! My research schedule is very flexible so I would love to come care for your puppy anytime of day :) I am happy to come take your dog for a mini adventure, hang out at your house, or anything in between! If your dog would enjoy a furry friend, my dog can tag along or she can stay at home. I have experience with crate training dogs, walking/playing with reactive dogs, puppies, and elderly dogs.

About: I am a student at UC Davis school of Veterinary medicine with training in behavioral modification, emergency medicine, and general animal health and wellness. I also have experience with exotic pets such as birds, reptiles, and small mammals. I am currently out of school on break so I can be very flexible with scheduling. I am willing to make check in trips or stay overnight. I have one pup of my own who lives with two other dogs. Our pups have 24 hrs access to a back yard and get plenty of attention and all the toys they could possibly wish to chew.

“Lucy was great! Super communicative and reliable and helpful took my dog for some nice long walks.”


About: Hi, my names Sofia and i’m a recent graduate from Lewis and Clark College. I’m originally from the east coast but moved to Davis to work as a junior specialist in a restoration ecology lab and have lived here for the past year. I’ve had dogs all my life, especially big ones i.e. a Newfoundland, so i’m happy to be around dogs of all sizes. Being around animals is one of my favorite pastimes and helps me cope with missing my dog at home! I’m an organized, responsible person and I’m very passionate about animals. I have an open/flexible schedule and I will take very good care of your pets. I am so excited to spend time with and get to know your animals! I'm currently working full time but have plenty of time on weekends and evenings and during my lunches! I have plenty of availability to house sit, dog walk, or do drop in visits! This includes weekday, weeknight, and weekend availability! I can easily adapt to each individuals home and their needs. I want to make sure each pet is comfortable and safe in my care.

About: There's something about cats and small dogs that just resonate. I have lived with cats, pigeons, parakeets, a pittie mix, and 2 small dogs in my home, and immediately adopted my own cat once I moved out. That being said, I vibe the strongest with cat energy (chihuahuas and other small dogs are cats, fight me). I've been pet sitting across multiple platforms since I was 15 (now 31). If your pet is looking for a friend with a cozy vibe, I'm their gal :) I spend most of my time writing and making art at home, so we will have have plenty of time to bond. I will make sure they feel like someone loving and safe is still around while you are on your trip away. Excepting the other Rover sits, I work on a contract and freelance schedule, so my schedule is relatively flexible. Shoot me a message and let's see if we can make it work. Even if I'm fully booked, go ahead and reach out and I'll see if I can squeeze you in. I tend to bond easily with animals since my priority is keeping each pet comfortable in their own routine and home. I'm really not in a rush to get myself on their good side, and they appreciate that. I follow their lead and it works!

“Jax just loves Zoe! She great with him and knows how to handle big dogs. She’s also very attentive to Jax’s needs and treats him like her own. We really trust her and appreciate all of her help! 😊 🐕”


“Kira was great, as usual! She really came through to help us out in a last minute jam. Very communicative, friendly, and reliable. Will be booking again! :)”


About: With over 20 years of dedicated pet experience, I have developed a deep understanding and profound love for animals of all kinds. My journey began with adopting my first dog, a lively mixed breed, which ignited my passion for animal welfare. Over the years, my home has been a sanctuary for a variety of pets including dogs, cats, rabbits and even reptiles (upon occasion). I work from home most of the week, so I have a flexible schedule to meet the needs of other working professionals that are looking for a reliable, passionate pet sitter to take their fur babies on walks (or runs) while keeping them within their familiar environment. Unfortunately, at this time, I am unable to welcome any pets in my house. I have fur babies of my own that I do not wish to upset their home life.

Elise L.
“Elise would be a great sitter. She is playful with our dogs and is always welcomed by them when she visits. Their wagging tails and excitement to "go for a walk" is always a fun time. She brushes their fur and plays catch with them for long periods of time in-between cuddling and walks. Elise is great with dogs. She's been a friend to our fur-babies for.over almost 15 years. We have two dogs (Sequoia who turned 15 & Juniper who is 5 years old) who have benefited from the care and Love Elise has shown them. Thanks for your time. Woof! -Jaime”

Xander A.
“Xander will make an excellent sitter for all pet owners that are lucky enough to hire him. As a fourth year vet student and dog and reptile owner, Xander has lots of experience at providing excellent care for his and other animals. He not only understands the importance of husbandry, but he has the clinical wherewithal to notice when they express abnormal behavior and show clinical signs. Xander grew up in Tulare, cow capitol of the country. So, he has experience with large animals and rambunctious animals too, like the Queensland Heelers, that his father has bred for decades. He is a calming presence and is also very respectful of other people and their property. I could not recommend another friend above Xander amongst all of my friends in Davis at the moment.”

Old East Davis dog parents share their Rover experiences
Zoe was great helping us out during a 3 day convention we had to attend. We couldn’t have done it without her ♥️

Alondra is always very attentive and trustworthy to my dog’s needs. She shows up on time and communicates clearly. My dog has a great time on her walks with her.

Esmiralda was fantastic. She is very professional, reliable, and certainly was liked by Chloe. I would highly recommend her.

A kind and caring dog walker for our hound dogs. We will keep relying on Lucia for our dog walking support!

Nora is so great! Really responsive and cares a lot about the dog she’s walking. Takes cute pictures too!

My dog is very anxious and was super nervous to have a stranger in his house, but Joon went above and beyond to make sure he felt comfortable ❤️

Emma was amazing with my dog, Molly! She was reliable, kind, and clearly loves animals. Molly warmed up to her right away, and I loved getting photos and updates after each walk. Emma went above and beyond to make sure Molly was happy and well cared for. I highly recommend her!

Michaelle was so great with our pups. She was very communicative and responsive. She was prompt and thorough in her messages. Would absolutely use her again to walk our pups while we are out of town.

Rachel arrived on time and took the dogs on a nice walk through the neighborhood parks, stopped at water fountains so they could hydrate and made sure they got a good walk in. She was kind and courteous and we look forward to more dog walks with Rachel

This was our third time working with Vita, and as always, she was fantastic! She provided over 20 days of continuous care for our home and dogs, ensuring everything ran smoothly. We felt completely at ease knowing our house and beloved pets were in such capable hands. Highly recommended!

Orin was great with Lily - came on time, was generous with the playtime, and Lily was very happy. We’d gladly recommend her as a dog walker!

I have a dog that is leash reactive to other dogs and Kira was very understanding and willing to do a walk together first to learn the commands and management tricks I use with my dog. Kira clearly loves dogs and is very tuned into every aspect of dog care. Kira asked lots of questions and was dedicated to learning everything possible to best care for my pup!
