“Ana is a true gem. I’m so glad I chose her from the start. She is extremely professional, conscientious, caring, and communicative. One thing I love is how she puts a soothing YouTube video of “doggy slumber time,” that plays lullabies, when she leaves. When I check my camera later, my dog is sound asleep on the couch. It’s so cute.”
“Dustin is wonderful. I often need to make last minute plans. Dustin always quickly responds to out request to let us know his availability. Our dog, Hank, is aging and Dustin takes such good care of him. I never need to worry as Dustin is 100% reliable. I highly recommend Dustin as he is the best of the best”

“Bethany took great care of my cat while I was on vacation! She not only fed her, but spent time playing with her and giving her the attention she needs. She also went above and beyond to water my garden in the middle of a heat wave, which I really appreciated. It’s a great feeling to know your pet is in good hands while you’re gone, and I never had any doubt that Bethany was taking great care of my baby. I will definitely use her pet-sitting services again in the future and highly recommend her if you’re looking for help!”

“Natalie took excellent care of our dog, Junie! We adopted Junie just a few weeks ago so we are still getting her comfortable and trained, and Natalie did an excellent job being patient with her, going at her own pace and keeping up with the routine we are setting. It’s always difficult to go on a trip and leave our dogs, so I’m extra grateful for all the pictures sent, updates and love given to our dog!!! Would recommend and will book again!”

About: Hi, I’m Tyler and I’ve been a cat sitter since 2019 so it’s been 5 years now since I first started dog/housesitting. I started out be dog/housesitting for my grandma’s neighbor and they thought I did such a good job that she referred me to her friends and family. I’ve built up a relationship with all my clients and we have a good trusting relationship between us. Currently I have 3 regulars that I dog/housesit for whenever they need me. I’ve housesat for many different types of dogs and cats and I love bonding with the animals that I care for. I’ve taken care of older and younger animals and my family are huge dog lovers so I’ve been around dogs since I was born. If you have any special requests for your pet I am more than welcome to accommodate for them and if you have any worries I am just a call away! I am free almost every day for the summer besides maybe 1 or 2 weeks for vacation. I currently have a job working at an Autoshop in Sacramento but I make my own hours for it so I can work around housesitting and I can make it work. During my services, the first thing that I like to do is to bond with the pet. I’ll sit on the ground and allow them to get comfortable with me. Once they get comfortable, I do whatever is asked for the pet and make sure that they are well taken care of and happy that I am around. Whether it be playing with them or taking them out on a walk, I am more than willing to do so to ensure that the pet is happy and well taken care of.
“Amazing as always! It’s so nice to know when I have a busy days Julia is able to give my dogs some love and make sure they are doing good. They love her and I know Julia loves them too.”
About: My name is Khalina, and I have over 20 years experience in caring for dogs. I am married with 4 children, although I was a fur mama first. I have been a pet sitter for countless of family and friends. I have owned 3 dogs. Two of which have passed due to complications of old age. We are very familiar with senior dogs and I would make sure our whole household would be conscientious of the the type of setting a senior pup would need. My family and I just adopted a Golden Doodle we’ve named Ophelia in October 2024. She is mild, sweet, and playful. She enjoys having friends come to visit. If boarding your pet, the only thing that I do ask, is that your pet be very comfortable and familiar with young children, and house trained. My children’s ages range from 7 years old to infant. I would never be leaving your pet alone with my children under any circumstances, but still would want there to be a comfortableness on both sides. Our backyard is securely fenced, and our home is pet friendly. I currently have a couple part time jobs but also happily wear the mom hat which needs flexibility for me to be present with my babies and for school pick ups and drop offs so I do have flexibility and availability for your pup. I typically only work for 4 hours at a time outside the home. I have a secure fenced backyard with plenty of room for your fur baby to enjoy outside. I am also experienced with dogs who are crate trained and happy to accommodate that as well. We have always let our pets be inside with us, and sleep inside. I would treat your pet just like if it was our own with the option to stay inside or outside as much as they want. We have 3 children so our home is by default pet friendly!

Parkway pet parents share their Rover experiences
We are beyond grateful for the incredible care Ana gave our dog over the weekend. Right before we left, our dog injured her leg, and we were so worried—but Ana went above and beyond to ease our concerns and make sure our pup was safe and comfortable. She kept us updated regularly with messages and photos, and even took the initiative to call the vet to see if she could get our dog in just in case. That level of care and responsibility gave us such peace of mind while we were away. It’s hard to put into words how much we appreciate her kindness, communication, and dedication. We wouldn’t hesitate for a second to recommend her to anyone looking for someone who treats your pet like their own. Thank you so much, Ana!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I’ve had Alma scheduled for drop ins for the past few months on the days I work. She is really good and patient with my teenage dog. She even helps with his training. She’s very communicative, replies fast and leaves a detailed note with good pictures. Very flexible with her schedule especially in hotter days. Never missed a visit. Able to do any of my requests. She has been very consistent with me.
Caroline was great! She helped me out over the holiday weekend and was always prompt with time. She seemed to enjoy spending time with my pet and always shared cute photos. I would definitely recommend her!
Monti took my dog on daily walks and gave him food & fresh water. I witnessed a little bit and he was highly competent with my dog. I asked him if I can extend. He did extend, though the price was higher.
I can’t say enough wonderful things about the care our dogs received while we were away! From the very start, it was clear that Alayna truly loves animals and understands how to connect with them on an individual level. One of our dogs—a senior corgi-beagle mix—is very slow to warm up to new people and requires a lot of patience, gentleness, and understanding. Alayna gave him just that, never rushing him and always respecting his boundaries, which earned her trust in a way that truly warmed my heart. Throughout our trip, we received thoughtful updates and photos that clearly showed how comfortable and well-cared-for all our fur babies were. It brought such peace of mind knowing they were not only being looked after, but loved. Alayna went above and beyond with the little things—sticking to their routines, paying attention to their moods, and even picking up on quirks that only someone who truly cares would notice. We came home to happy, relaxed pups—and that says everything. I’m so grateful to have found someone who cares for our dogs as if they were her own. We’ll absolutely be booking with Alayna again. If you’re looking for someone who brings empathy, attentiveness, and genuine love to pet care, look no further.
Taylor did an outstanding job. Caleb loves the attention she gives him and things always go smoothly.
Zariyah was amazing! I was away for five days and needed someone dependable to drop in on my cat, Gojo. She delivered above and beyond. She made sure he was fed, had fresh water every day, and kept his litter box clean. What I appreciated most was that she shared regular updates, which gave me total peace of mind while I was away. Knowing Gojo was in such thoughtful and capable hands made all the difference. I’ll definitely be booking Zariyah again. I highly recommend her service!
She was amazing, especially on short notice. Very accommodating. I really appreciate all of her patience and hard work and efforts taking care of my fur babies.
Firstly, Pedro was very quick with his response and confirmation of availability. I had to leave Sacramento due to a family issue and he confirmed the appointment even though I requested it at the last minute. He followed all the instructions I left written on my door. My dog eats a natural diet along with kibble, and he prepared everything as I asked. He took her to potty in the correct area and left everything clean.
