About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats of all ages and sizes my whole life. I truly love anyone’s animal like my own because I know what it’s like to worry about your pet when they are away. When they’re hanging out with me, you can expect lots of pictures, games of fetch in the backyard, and as many snuggles as possible. I prioritize the owners peace of mind. I have experience administering daily medications, with some pets being on multiple medications at different times of day. Rest assured, your pet will a place to call their second home when staying with me. I am home full time, your pet will experience my full attention all day. I prioritize a daily routine in my own life, and work hard to make sure your pet stays in theirs as well. My yard is fully fenced in and even my escape artist husky is safe and secure in the backyard. They will always be under my direct supervision when in the backyard. There are lots of toys to play with in the backyard, even an outdoor bed if they prefer to relax.
“I was leaving my 2 kitties alone with a stranger for the first time ever and was super nervous and worried. I have one kitty who is super sensitive to stress and changes and 1 kitty who gets into everything. From the moment of just communicating with Travis, I had a good feeling. Then meeting him, both my partner and I felt he was the one for the job. We are so very happy to work with him. The 4 night trip away, I was actually able to NOT worry about my babies after about the first day, because Travis made me feel like they were well taken care of and safe. Highly recommend. We will be using him in the future.”

“The dogs were at first meeting defensive which is natural. Within minutes they relaxed and were comfortable with Tylyn. Nice pictures were taken everyday, the yard was cleaned up and she did a little extra watering. I was very comfortable with her dropping in for a total of nine days.”
“Michelle is our dog’s favorite sitter! She’s responsible, a great communicator, and really makes an effort to learn our high-energy dog’s personality and needs. Michelle always provides great written summaries and photos from her drop-in visits and walks. We have booked Michelle numerous times and will continue to do so. Thanks Michelle!”
“Lacee was excellent with our 4 chickens while we were on vacation for 2 weeks! She came by every day to make sure their needs were met. I really appreciated how she followed our detailed instructions and checklists. She was very thorough in her care with them and made sure they were given their frozen treats and water during the hot summer days in her care. We hope to book Lacee in the future for another chicken care event! 🐤😊”

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.

“Jenelle was so wonderful taking care of our dog while we were away. She is incredibly kind and very responsible. I had great piece of mind knowing she was their for our dog!”
About: To me, a dog is first and foremost a friend — and in my home, a treasured guest who gets to keep their own habits. My goal isn't to make them fit my routine, but to help them feel calm, happy, and at home. With over 10 years of caring for animals, this has always been about friendship and respect for me, never just "pet-sitting." Comfort and safety first. I create a comfortable, safe space built on what matters most: love, respect for personal boundaries, and genuine care. Your dog should feel protected and accepted from the very first moment. A little joy every day. Dogs love their walks, so if yours usually goes out once or twice a day, with me we'll head out more often. Playtime happens every single day, and there are plenty of cuddles and conversations along the way — dogs really feel that. Careful with food and health. Meals and medication stay right on schedule. Many dogs will only eat when someone sits with them, so I stay by their side at mealtimes to make sure they actually eat and feel supported. I'm happy to care for dogs with special needs and those who need medication. A home where they can relax. I don't burden dogs with unnecessary rules — furniture and favorite spots are all theirs, just like home. Your dog gets to feel free here, not like a guest on someone else's terms. What you can count on from me. Detailed photo and video updates twice a day, so you can relax knowing your companion is doing well. I work from home, which means your dog has company and supervision all day long. I live in a secure, gated community with enclosed grounds — a calm, safe place to stay. Your dog won't just be "boarded" here — they'll be a guest in a friend's home. My care for your pet goes far beyond simple supervision — I give them home comfort and my full attention, just like I do for my own pets. I work from home, so I'm around throughout the day: your pet is never left alone for long, and I easily fit into their usual routine — meals, walks, playtime, and rest all stay on their normal schedule. I keep my days flexible so your pet's needs always come first. I can either visit your pet regularly in your own home, or welcome them into my home for constant, attentive supervision. If your pet stays with me, they'll be my only guest — no other animals competing for attention, so all of it goes to your companion. My home is in a secure, gated community with enclosed grounds — a calm, safe place where pets settle in easily. Whether in your home or mine, I keep things clean, quiet, and stress-free, and I always respect each pet's personal boundaries and pace.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Orangevale
Brooklyn made check-in and feeding visits to our three dogs and one cat for a week while we were traveling. She did a fantastic job with our ultra-shy, rather anxious large dogs. She was reliable and promptly responsive to my questions, so much so, that one evening she returned to our house at 9:00 p.m. at night to check on one of our dogs. We were very happy with her service and will definitely request her help again in the future.
Tylyn was excellent! She was always on time and flexible when needed. She always sent me pics of my pup, and I could tell whenever I got home from work that my pup had a good day because she got to see Tylyn! Highly recommend considering her if you need a pet sitter!!!
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.
Mariah took care of our very timid cats while we were away for seven days. We scheduled her to come only once a day as the cats are very frightened of new people. She followed the written instructions and I was able to communicate with her any potential problems. We would absolutely book her again if we need cat care.
Amanda was wonderful with our kitties as usual. Both warmed up to her without any issues (even our very wary cat). Amanda went out of her way to ensure cleanliness and safety, while sending us great photos and videos of our little ones while we were overseas, which we found very comforting. We came back home to very happy kitties and will certainly have Amanda again as our cat sitter!

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Orangevale stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Orangevale. On Rover:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 96% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
