About: Hi! I have always loved animals, growing up with many cats, dogs, chickens, fish, birds, etc. Right now I have a cat, Luna, who we love dearly! We are not quite ready to fully pause travel and commit full time to a dog at home, so I am looking forward to enjoying some dog time via Rover! I am available all day on weekends, and after 5pm on week days. My Sat/Sun availability will vary based on my schedule, but I would love to take walks on my open weekends! I plan to ask pet preferences and communicate with the owner prior to our first walk. I am in tune with what a dog’s mood and what they may be communicating during our walk. I hope they enjoy the walk and my company during our time together.
About: I’ve been a proud pet parent and sitter for over 20 years, and I know how important it is to have someone you can trust with your furry family. I’ve cared for dogs of all breeds and sizes, cats with every personality, and even senior pets who need a little extra love. I treat every pet like my own; whether that means long walks, playtime, cuddles, or keeping routines just right. I’m reliable, attentive, and always happy to send photo updates so you know your pets are safe and happy while you’re away. For me, pet sitting isn’t just a job, it’s what I love. 🐾 I have a very flexible schedule! I am pretty much always home, playing with my cat or tending my garden. I go to school online so that can be done from any location with wifi. I have plenty of free time to make sure your fury friends needs are met! I love and appreciate a detailed list of your pets wants and needs so as their routine isn’t disturbed in your absence. My calm yet assertive style coupled with my fun and energetic personality help me to ensure every pet I encounter is not only safe but trusts me enough to let their guard down and play!
About: I have over eight years of dedicated hands-on experience, having cared for pets of all ages and backgrounds since I was 12 years old. Growing up surrounding myself with animals and pet care taught me how to read animal body language, build fast trust, and adapt to each animal's unique personality. My current schedule allows me to offer excellent flexibility and dedicated time for pet care. I work part-time at my church, which leaves me with plenty of open availability throughout the week for walks, drop-in visits, and house sitting. Following Their Routine: I stick strictly to the daily schedule you set for feeding, exercise, play, and bedtime. Keeping their normal routine minimizes stress while you are away. Respecting Your Space: I treat your home with total respect, keeping common areas clean, securing doors and gates, and ensuring everything is left exactly as you left it. Constant Updates & Photos: You will receive regular check-ins, photos, and updates during every visit or overnight stay so you always know how your pet is doing.
About: Hi there! 🐾 I genuinely love animals! I've spent the past 5 years caring for cats and dogs, including my own pets. I'm comfortable with all kinds of personalities, including shy, energetic, anxious, and reactive pets. I understand that every animal is different, and I'm happy to be patient and let them warm up to me at their own pace. Whether your pet loves going on walks, playing, cuddling, or just having someone nearby, I'm happy to give them the attention and care they need! I know how important it is to trust someone with your pets and your home. I'm big on communication and will gladly send pictures and updates throughout our time together so you know your furry family member is doing well. I'm also comfortable with house sitting, following detailed instructions, and respecting your home and your pet's normal routine. I don't mind cameras in shared spaces, and I want you to feel completely at ease while you're away. My goal is simple: happy pets and peace of mind for you! 🐶🐱🧡 I'm available on both weekdays and weekends! 🐾 I do have a full-time job, but I have flexibility with my schedule and can make adjustments ahead of confirmed bookings. I primarily offer house sitting and dog walking. For overnight stays, I'm happy to stay in a guest room if one is available! Since I live in Orangevale, I'm also open to arranging visits throughout the day and returning to my own home at night, depending on your pet's needs. I'm always happy to talk through expectations and schedules before confirming a booking to make sure we're a great fit! I love keeping pets happy, active, and mentally stimulated! 🐾 For dogs, a typical day might include walks around the neighborhood, playtime with their favorite toys, and plenty of attention and cuddles. If they're comfortable in public spaces and their owner approves, I'm happy to take them to a nearby park for some extra outdoor time! For cats, I love interactive playtime with their favorite toys, giving them pets when they're in the mood, or simply hanging out and keeping them company. I always adjust activities based on each pet's energy level, personality, and routine. Whether they're full of energy or prefer a relaxing day, I'm happy to match their vibe!
“Amy was so so patient with our Chili girl when she needed some extra time to warm up. We are so grateful for her & the patience & understanding of what our dog needs. Will absolutely be booking again! Thank you so much!”
About: I’m Lauren—Keeper of Cats, Walker of Dogs, with 25 years of experience caring for animals of all ages and personalities. My approach is quiet, steady, and respectful of each pet’s natural rhythm. Cats are my specialty. I’m comfortable with shy, senior, independent, or affectionate cats, and I follow their lead. I’ve handled medication, special diets, and slow‑paced routines with care. For dogs, I focus on gentle, unhurried walks and calm companionship while still providing full dog care—walks, feeding, playtime, and routine support. I’m a great fit for friendly, easygoing dogs who enjoy steady energy and consistent routines. Services include: • Cat visits, meds, litter care • Dog walks & drop‑ins • Overnights for cats or mellow dogs • Fish feeding • Thoughtful updates + photos If your pets prefer a peaceful presence and steady hands, I’d love to care for them. I work full‑time from home in an emotionally heavy line of work, and caring for animals is the bright, grounding rhythm that keeps me balanced. Stepping away to spend time with your pets—whether it’s a quiet cat visit or a peaceful walk—adds light and calm to my week, and I’m grateful for it. I care for pets by keeping their world steady. In your home, I follow your routines—feeding, litter care, walks, playtime, and any special instructions. I move at your pet’s pace, whether that means quiet company or active engagement, all while keeping your space tidy and your pets grounded and comfortable.
About: I’ve been an animal lover my entire life! I was raised around animals and currently have two cats of my own, so I know how much our pets mean to us. I also worked at a veterinary clinic for three years while I was in college, where I gained experience caring for all kinds of pets and learned how to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether your pet needs a walk, playtime, a meal, or just some company while you’re away, I’d love to help! I’ll treat your pets like my own, keep their routine as normal as possible, and send you plenty of updates and pictures so you can relax knowing they’re in good hands. I work full time Monday-Friday, but I can be available Friday nights all throughout the weekend, great if you need someone while you take a weekend to get away! I provide care in your pet’s own home, where they can stay comfortable and maintain their normal routine. I’ll follow your instructions for feeding, walks, playtime, medications if needed, and anything else your pet needs. I’ll also make sure they receive plenty of attention and care while you’re away, with updates and photos along the way!
About: I have a heart full of love for DOGS and CATS alike. My pomeranian died two years ago and she wasn't just my dog, she was one of the family. She went everywhere with me. When your dog comes to our home, they will be treated like one of the family. When I have to get my daughter from school, there is a good possiblity, your dog will get to go for a car ride too. Just like they were my kid!! Daily walks are a must too. That is unless they just don't want to that day. I am flexible. We have playtime too. I am currently working remotely so I can give your furries all the love and attention they could possible need and want. They can have bathroom breaks as needed as well as daily walks. We have a fenced in yard so your furries are safe with us. We have one small dog and 4 cats that are friendly to other animals.
About: What sets me apart is the care, patience, and attention I give every pet as if they were my own. I take the time to learn each pet’s personality, routine, and individual needs so they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m happy caring for playful puppies, energetic dogs, and senior pets who may need extra patience and attention. I can help maintain feeding and medication routines, reinforce basic training, provide plenty of exercise and playtime, and give senior pets the calm, gentle care they deserve. My goal is simple: happy pets, peace of mind for you, and a sitter you can trust. I have an open schedule so I have enough time to tend to your pup. I can house sit all the time to walk them as needed First thing I do before and while they go out side I will observe all there escape routes and Make sure that everything is closed and secure
About: I have worked in the animal field for 15 years+. I graduated vet tech school 10 years ago. I am an animal advocate and have worked with domesticate as well as exotic animals. I have understand the troubled animals since i have always adopted the animals that others said were too much to handle. I understand everyone has a busy life and I like to provide a place to safely leave ur pet where they can still be loved and have a warm home. Everyone including the furry members deserve a vacation. I can help take care of other peoples furry family members when they are away. I will discount additional pets in a family. Will discuss pricing when we make sitting reservations! Thank you I work in a vet clinic during the day but my husband is home and keeps ur fur kid(s) company while I’m at the hospital I have a fenced yard and there is usually someone home most the day with ur fur child. When left alone we do what u do at home. If that means a kennel then we do. If that means just hanging out on the couch we do it

“Kiley was awesome with Rosie! My dog always loves attention and Kiley was great with her! She followed the rules and left everything as it was. I will continue to ask her for help when I need it”
About: I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life! I’ve been around dogs of all breeds, sizes, and ages, from little puppies to older dogs. My grandma also fostered dogs, so I was always surrounded by them growing up! I have 4 years of pet-sitting experience, but I’ve also grown up taking care of our own dogs my whole life. people always tell me how much their dogs love me! I absolutely adore animals and would treat your fur babies like my own! I’m a college student with a flexible schedule since most of my classes are online! I’m available all day Monday, Wednesday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. I have in-person classes Tuesday and Thursday but can discuss morning or evening visits. I’m also happy to stay overnight in your home! Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities! I’ll always follow their normal routine, respect your home, and give them plenty of love and attention. I’m also happy to send pictures and updates so you know your fur baby is in good hands!
About: I grew up with dogs, I'm 22, my last boy recently passed last year in the summer. Ever since I couldnt bring myself to get a new dog, not after him. But I do have a bunny that I rescued from a bunny shelter in the bay! I've showered, groomed, walked, etc dogs in the past. With my last boy, he had cancer so I guess you can say I have a bit of experience with following a oral medication administration schedule. I also did have a senior dog prior to him, that's all an experience. I had him when he was a pup so I did raise my boy and I think I did a pretty good job at it too. I currently work 3, irregular 12 hours shifts, the days are different every week. My school schedule is a bit more set. With that being said If I'm not working my 12 hr I'm available after 12 noon any day besides Saturday, currently. I do live with roommates in a spacious house with a yard. I don't think id be able to take in any doggies for boarding for long periods of time, maybe for the day but even then those are slim chances. For the times that I can, your pup will be surrounded with fun animals lovers that love to spoil and play with anything fluffy. We do have a cat and a bunny in the house but they are easy to keep away or be put in a different room of the house. I, personally, love a good walk on a trial and a good trip to the dog park. I'm all up for water activities, I don't mind washing your pup. Even a good stoll through the neighborhood and ending it with a movie and lots of cuddles. Indoor or outdoor, I can work with just about any activities or tasks.
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and have been caring for other people’s pets since high school. Throughout high school and college, I regularly dog- and cat-sat for friends, neighbors, and friends of friends, gaining hands-on experience with a variety of animals, personalities, and routines. My experience includes overnight pet sitting, caring for multiple pets at once, looking after puppies, and administering medications. I’m comfortable stepping in to maintain pets’ usual feeding, exercise, and care routines while their owners are away, whether that means caring for one pet or managing the needs of a whole household of animals. Pet sitting is something I genuinely enjoy, and after years of caring for animals both growing up and independently, I’ve developed a good understanding of the responsibility involved and take pride in providing dependable, attentive care. I recently moved back home after spending 10 months living in Madrid, and I currently work part-time remotely. Because of my flexible schedule, I can accommodate a variety of pet care needs, whether that's daytime walks, drop-in visits, overnight stays, or keeping your pet company throughout the day. I enjoy staying active and spending time with animals, so pet care fits naturally into my routine. I'm committed to being reliable, communicative, and making sure your pet receives the attention and care they deserve. Your pet's safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. I know that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, so I take the time to learn what makes them feel most comfortable and stick as closely as possible to their normal routine. I pay close attention to body language and behavior to recognize when a pet is relaxed, excited, or anxious. Whether we're going for walks, playing, feeding, or just relaxing together, I strive to create a calm, positive environment where your pet feels safe, cared for, and loved. I also understand that leaving your pet with someone new can be stressful for both you and your pet. I'll keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind knowing your fur baby is happy, safe, and in good hands!!
“This was our first time using Rover and couldn’t be more thankful that we found Nancy. We loved her daily reports and photos of our cat Jackson and he looked very well taken care of while we were gone. Nancy was great at communicating and we very much hope we can work with her again in the future when we travel again.”
The median cost per visit for pet sitting in Orangevale is $25

We were thankful to find Brooklyn to watch our two dogs! Our two dogs are energetic happy pups. Her presence is calming and the dogs responded with settling down. She is trustworthy and on time. Faithfully she sent pictures each visit. She is definitely is on our shortlist.
I had a wonderful experience with Haley! She provided thoughtful daily updates and photos, which I really appreciated while I was away. My cats can take some time to warm up to new people, and she was incredibly patient and understanding, allowing them to get comfortable with her at their own pace. I felt completely at ease while I was away, knowing I could trust her to take good care of them. I would absolutely recommend her and would happily book with her again!
Ella is an absolute angel! My family was going out of town for one night & we were really worried about our dog, Ava, but she made us feel so comfortable & Ava seemed to be just fine with Ella! She sent pictures and made sure to stay in contact with us. I would definitely recommend & use her again.
Anastassia is amazing!! She is very communicative, she set up a meet and great immediately and she is a natural with animals, knowing immediately how to work with the quirks and behaviors of our dog. She took our dog for a walk and was proactive about her needs including thinking to bring a water bowl. Our baby was nice and tired when I got home from work, I could tell she loved her new friend. Will definitely use Anastassia again!!
Michael is my go to pet sitter for Stella when I am traveling. I have used Michael 3 times now and will continue to request his services for Stella in the future. Michael always finds a way to accommodate my needs and schedule for Stella while I am away (even when I book last minute, sorry about that Michael). Michael is a friendly person who is responsible and caring with the pets and their homes he is tasked with! Thanks again Michael.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Orangevale is $26 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $39 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 4,037 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Orangevale. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
