“Shannon was so cute with my cats! She sent me pictures each time she visited them. She is responsive to any concern, and is quick to communicate if she has concerns herself. I will absolutely be rebooking her in the future, thank you Shannon for being awesome and caring for my cats like they are yours. -Erica”
About: I provide dependable, attentive care for both dogs and cats, with a focus on making every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their family is away. 🐾 I have experience with dog walking, playtime, feeding, bathing, and general care, as well as cat feeding, litter box cleaning, playtime, and plenty of cuddles when welcomed. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and comfort level, so I take the time to follow your instructions closely and care for them the way you would. Whether your pet needs energetic playtime, a relaxing walk, quiet companionship, or a professional biscuit-making audience, they’ll receive patient, reliable, and loving care. 🐶🐱💕 I take scheduling and your pet’s routine seriously, and I always do my best to provide dependable, consistent care. 🐾 I work part-time most weekday mornings, but I’m available Tuesday and Thursday mornings and have flexible availability throughout the rest of the week. I’m also very flexible on weekends and holidays. For boarding, I’m happy to coordinate dates and times in advance so everything is clear and organized. You can count on me to communicate openly, arrive as scheduled, and make your pet’s care a priority. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. I make sure pets have access to fresh water, are fed properly and on schedule, and are kept in a clean, comfortable environment. I also have experience with crate training and understand the importance of using crates safely and positively. I closely follow each pet parent’s instructions and routines so your furry family member feels secure, cared for, and at home while they’re with me.
“Hillary did a great job caring for my cats! She was happy to meet ahead of time, followed all directions, and went above and beyond to make the cats happy and keep me up to date on how they were doing while away. You won’t regret hiring Hillary to watch your pets!”
About: I’m good with dogs. I’m also very patient and interactive with them. No longer have my own but I’ll treat your doggie like my own. I’m am currently working nights during the week so I have time in the morning for some walks or some hikes. Weekends schedule always changes. Previously I’ve dog sat and at the same time house sat while clients were out of town. I’m very cautious and trustworthy as well very vigilant of my surroundings.
“Another positive experience with Tai :) i had a pretty bad ant problem and she made sure to clean them up each time they made an appearance!! Im very grateful for Tai and all her help with caring for my babies and my home 🙏”
About: I've cared for a wide variety of animals throughout my life; dogs, cats, birds, turtles, and fish, to name a few. I raised my German Shepherd/Husky mix Misti from a puppy, handling potty training and basic commands. I also care for my senior cat, Sam, who is 12 years old! I love walks, hikes, play, nature, and enrichment. I even trained my cat to high five! Your pet will be in experienced, loving hands. I'm currently available full-time with a very flexible schedule! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, and I'm happy to accommodate last-minute bookings or specific timing needs. I offer house sitting, drop-in visits, and dog walking all in your pet's own home where they feel most comfortable. I follow client routines closely and will provide updates throughout my visits.

About: Full-time 🎉 Home All Day Hi! My name is Noemi. I grew up in a family oriented household with a family that loves animals. I’ve been taking care of them since I was 9! We’ve had dogs, pigs, reptiles, cats, ducks! They were a great way to learn responsibility. I have always brought in rescues providing them with great homes before sending them off to a forever home🤍! I have volunteered at Animal shelters to show my love unconditionally to dogs, cats, bunnies or reptiles! I have a large passion for my furry friends! I have a lot of experience with animals that have suffered with separation anxiety and medical issues. Volunteering at the animal shelters has provided me with great experience professionally and personally. I understand our furry loved ones usually have certain routines to go by. I am very accepting to different family routines! So please feel free to communicate that with me if your furry baby has a specific routine. Momentarily, I only have two dogs and a cat named nimbus! They get along great with other dogs or cats! If you would like me to keep your furry baby separate I can also provide that. My house is larger and I can keep animals separated inside the home or outside what your preference is. I am a very caring and generous person that is very loving and compassionate. I love to go above and beyond for animals especially making them feel warm and happy. IM ALWAYS AVAILABLE ☺️I currently work full time with dogs and my clients and run a doggie day care 😊 I'm always willing to accommodate with my clients schedule and what is needed :) My home has a brick wall around the yard it’s very large and tall ! I have a free space to keep your baby safe and for them to have fun! If your baby needs a crate provided I can do that as well! Any requests provided just keep me informed!
About: We are a pet-centered family. Fur babies have been at the heart of our home for over 20 years. We've rescued dogs and cats across various stages of life, some with special needs, and loved them well into their senior years. We’re conveniently located near 101, making for an easy drop off and pickup. We provide personalized care, tailored to the specific needs of your pet. Whether it's adhering to the dietary requirements of their meals, administering medication, or modifying walks and play to accommodate any physical limitations or developmental needs. Animals of all types tend to gravitate to me. I'm patient and playful. If they just need a calm presence to cuddle with or a buddy to play fetch and get their zoomies out, I adapt to the needs of your pet. Our home is filled to the brim with a love for pets and their care. My wife leads a community for pet parents and my daughter is a future vet who makes every animal she meets her best friend and desires to rescue as many she can. I'm a retired engineer and my wife works from home. Pets are family and our schedules are adjusted accordingly to ensure they are not alone. I love nature and giving pets the opportunity to relax and play where they feel the most comfortable. We can walk the park grounds right outside our door, relax on the deck, or snuggle on the couch. We can also hop in the Jeep and go exploring if they prefer. Every pet is different and my goal is to always meet them right where they are.
About: From a young age I would house sit for neighbors and would take care of their pets, whilst they were on vacation. I've taken care of older dogs that had special needs as well. I have been walking dogs for the past 5 years as a hobby, and as a way to stay healthy. When my friend's shoulder was dislocated I walked his Grey Wolf/Husky mix for him while he recovered. I am available most days, I have full availability on weekends, and late nights (10-11pm) all week for those dogs whom prefer cooler temperature walks. I am unable to host your dog at my home currently. I'm experienced in giving older dogs their medications including pills and Insulin. I can house sit and watch your pets while you are at work, on vacation, or even if it's just date night.
About: I grew up taking care of animals. I currently have one Russian Tortoise, one pug, and two chihuahuas. One is diabetic so I have experience with giving insulin injections and monitoring pet health. I have house sat and pet sat for years. I also worked at the Fresno Chaffee Zoo for one year and worked with animals and conservation. I am currently a student and have plenty of availability. I have class Monday and Tuesday from 3-7 pm, and Thursday from 4-5pm, but can work around it. I live in a an apartment in a safe community, with a gated yard. I have a doggy door for access to the yard. There are tons of walking paths around.
“Michelle is an amazing cat sitter. My kitty is usually very shy and Michelle did a great job bonding with her and taking care of her. I am nervous to leave my fur-baby, but knowing Michelle is there for Zuni makes it easier.”
“Tatyana kicked ass with helping me and my dogs. I asked her to show up in the middle of the super bowl to let my dogs out and she did it at a moment's notice and did it professionally. I would hire her again anyday. Thank you!”
“Victoria was absolutely wonderful! She came to meet our 3 cats prior to our trip and was able to connect with all of them, even our very shy Siamese girl. She sent us so many great photos and really seemed to enjoy her time with our babies. I would highly recommend her!”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats of all kinds since I was 6. Having my own dog was literally the dream of my life since I remember. I’ve always loved animals and have had pets my entire life, - at different times, my family had 3 dogs, 4 cats, parrots, hamsters, and even chickens. I’ve always been the go-to person in my family for walking, feeding, bathing, and looking after our pets, and I truly enjoy every part of it. I love all animals, and I genuinely believe they feel my positive energy and trust in return. I’d be happy to help with pet sitting, drop-in visits, or dog walking any time of day, including overnight stays. Please feel free to reach out anytime. I’m flexible throughout the day and will be glad to take care, home sitting or walking your pups, including overnight stay, please feel free to contact me. I can care for your pets in your home or spend time with them in your backyard. Unfortunately, I’m not able to host pets in my own home at the moment.
About: I love animals and i’ve always loved animals since I was a little girl. Any chance I got to be able to play with our dog, take him on a walk or even just to feed him I was always right there. Every morning before work I make my cat his breakfast meal (3/4 can of wet food with added water for hydration). Play with him for at least 5-10 minutes so he doesn’t feel ignored. Once coming home from work he is greeted with cuddles and play time and a treat until it’s time for his dinner meal (3/4 can of wet food with added water & Omega-3 oil). I make sure to scoop my cat’s litter box daily as to not stress him out and to keep a clean litter box. Litter changes weekly. I have always had pets growing up. Ranging from dogs, cats, frogs, turtles, fish, etc. Every pet is different so i’ve had to care for each animal in different ways. Getting to know your pets is always fun and also important in knowing how to care for them and keep them happy and comfortable. Tending to your pets needs and wants such as daily/weekly water bowl/fountain changes, learning their food preferences, toy preferences, maintaining a nice environment for them is super essential in pet care and overall happiness.
“Charisma communicated throughout from the beginning and was easy to work with. Our pup loved her and she was clearly well taken care of. We hope/plan to book Charisma again she was great!”
About: I’ve personally have had pets in the past, along with sitting friends, family and neighbors animals. I’ve also worked at PetSmart for a year, so I’m very comfortable and confident around different animals. Im an online student and have open availability to give personal attention to a furry friend. I’m open to last minute requests and over night stays. I live in a welcoming neighborhood that’s great for walks. My backyard is the perfect size for a pet to run around in with a 5 foot high fence.
About: I started walking a neighbor/friend’s dog as a favor in 2016. She recommended me to her friends then they recommended me to theirs and so on and so on until I had the trust of 15 clients by 2021. I’ve met all kinds of doggy friends; old, young, big, small, aggressive, shy, single or multiple siblings. I’m more than willing to accommodate any special needs your friend may have. I am currently a student studying film so timing will be somewhat selective, but I still have lots of availability and will be as accommodating as possible for you and your pet friends! I cannot host at the moment but I am more than willing to house sit in a location of your choosing! Common courtesy is a must and your place will look just as you left it.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Oxnard
Ariana did a wonderful job taking care of our boys and went above and beyond by helping with the ants and cleaning up the grass after they used the bathroom. She was also very thoughtful about the weather and made sure they didn’t go out and walk on hot asphalt. We don’t need doggy care too often, but the next time we do, we’ll definitely check with Ariana to see if she’s available. Thank you so much, Ariana!
Tai was absolutely amazing with my cats and super sweet. She played so much with my high energy kitty and chilled with my antisocial girl. She sent lots of photos and updates, and went above and beyond to cover for me an extra day when I couldn’t make it home on time. Would recommend her to anyone.
I was nervous to book a first time drop-in, but Allie was very reassuring. I couldn't be happier with the care my pups received! She was so attentive to the specifics I gave her — nothing was overlooked — which gave me total peace of mind while I was away. What stood out most was how attentive she was during the visit — she made sure my dogs got the attention and care they needed, not just a quick check-in. She sent adorable photos and a thoughtful update, so I knew exactly how things were going. It's clear she genuinely cares about the animals she looks after. Highly recommend!
Alison was absolutely wonderful with Bentley! From our initial meet-and-greet, I could immediately tell she was kind, patient, and genuinely loves animals. As a dog mom, that’s incredibly important to me, and she made me feel completely at ease. During her visit, she took Bentley on a nice walk, spent quality time with him, gave him lots of affection, and followed all of my care instructions perfectly. I could tell she treated him with the same love and attention he’s used to receiving, which meant so much to me. She also kept me updated throughout the visit, and I came home to a happy, relaxed pup. I wouldn’t hesitate to book Alison again, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will truly care for their pet as if they were their own.
Nykie was incredibly reliable, communicative, and thoughtful the entire visits. I received frequent updates, photos that showed just how comfortable, happy, and well-loved my puppy was. I highly recommend Nykie to anyone looking for someone they can truly trust with their pets. I will absolutely be booking again!
Dianne has been an incredible help with my dog! She is consistently punctual, highly responsive, and communicates timely throughout the process. Most importantly, she brings a fantastic positive energy that my four-legged friends absolutely love. She is incredibly easy to work with, and we are so pleased to have her support. I would highly recommend Dianne to anyone looking for a reliable and caring walker!
Sarah took excellent care of my dog. She gave us so much peace of mind on our trip and it was honestly like we never left. Our dog obviously had a wonderful few days of drop in care with Sarah and we will be contacting her again in the future for more care. Thank you, Sarah!

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.

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.

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 .
