“Ailiya was absolutely wonderful with my two kitties. She was communicative, fast at responding, caring, and gave great attention to detail. I found her to be very trustworthy and my two cats were happy and well cared for in my absence. They probably want her back for all the love and extra treats they got!”
“Honor goes above and beyond and really cares about her relationship with her clients. She is dedicated to providing the best care. She knows my dog very well and communicates any concerns or issues. We deeply appreciate her!”
About: I’ve have been taken care of animals since I was 12. I would pet sit for friends and family. I also have worked with a number of rescues and also in local shelters. I also was a vet technician. I love animals and love being able to give my clients the peace of mind that their pets are well loved when they are away or working. I have a fenced in yard with planty of room to play. I make sure each pet in my care feels loved and welcomed into my home like they are my own pets.
About: 🏆 20+ yrs Experience !! BIG FENCED IN YARD !! *** SPECIALIZE IN LONG STAYS *** I love and respect each animal for who they are as I do people. I am confident when caring for any pet that we will respect and understand one another, I gage their demeanor and temperament and than go from there. I keep a calm and clean (but lived in) home and I utilize my big fenced in yard to it's fullest!! I love playing catch with the dogs and the cats I let them do their thing whether it's cuddling on the couch or if they are skiddish or shy I let them be until they are comfortable enough to be approached or to approach me. I also can give baths and trim nails! Need a sitter who has a big heart and a big yard? Call me! I have a semi flexible work schedule and I'm 10 mins from my house. I pop in and out during work hours and I'm home everyday and night 24/7 Cameras inside and out to keep an eye on the woof pack!! I am diligent on our daily schedule and bc of this the pups usually seem to get it after a day or two tops. I think sticking to a regimented schedule calms them almost immediately. Once they all have there “spot” where they sleep and eat the anxiety level instantly drops a few levels for every one of them. I have a large secure fenced in yard very open for running, playing catch or Frisbee, I can brush or bath any pet for you and I also offer nail trimming. Big bowls of fresh FILTERED water inside and out changed several times a day. I am diligent on dietary restrictions. Every day i make one on one time for each and every pup, they really love and appreciate it! i totally get that they need that time especially before bed. (I tuck them all in)
“I highly recommend Arassely to anyone looking for a professional and attentive pet sitter. From the start, communication was clear, prompt, and reassuring. She followed all care instructions closely and took the time to get to know my pet’s personality and routines. I received thoughtful updates and photos throughout the visits, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away. I returned home to a happy, well-cared-for pet and a tidy space. It’s clear that Arassely takes their responsibility seriously and truly cares about the animals they look after. I wouldn’t hesitate to book again.”
About: I have been a pet owner, foster mom, rescue volunteer, and assistance dog trainer for more than two decades. I am a teacher, mom of four grown children, with too much time on my hands and I need some furry friends! I also love to exercise and to walk every day. I am a quiet, introverted person, an avid walker and reader, holder of two masters degrees, and a person of high integrity. I can be trusted in your home. I have experience with very old and very young dogs and cats, with bottle-feeding, administering meds, eye-drops, and even administering subcutaneous fluids. I have puppy trained 7 golden retrievers/standard poodles to be assistance dogs for autistic children which means I took a six-week puppy training course with each pup. I am referred to by my friends and family as the Dog Whisperer. I believe in pet in-loco parentis - pet parent in your absence! I am a preschool teacher (leave my house at 8 and return home by 4.) I like to spend as much of my free time with furry friends. I have been fostering dogs and cats for decades and have a lot of experience sharing my home with other people’s pets. Again, I believe in pet in-loco parentis - pet parent in your absence! I have yet to find an animal I couldn't love. I care for my own pets as if they were my sons and daughters, much to my real children's annoyance!

“Krista was an amazing sitter! My 3 cats absolutely loved her. I was blown away by how she even charmed my anti social cat. She communicated with us well, and took care of our precious fur babies with plenty of treats and toys. She genuinely cares about the animals, so if you're feeling weary about a pet sitter, know that with Krista, your babies will be in top notch care! ;D”

About: Hi! I’m an empty nester with a lifelong love for dogs. I’ve owned and cared for dogs for as long as I can remember, and over the years I’ve also helped family and friends by pet sitting for their furry family members. I understand how important it is to have someone trustworthy, patient, and caring looking after your pet, and I treat every dog like they’re part of my own family. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. As a retired mom and lifelong pet lover, I have the time, patience, and flexibility to give your pet the attention and care they deserve. I’ve spent years caring for pets of my own and helping family and friends with their pets, so I understand how important it is to know your furry family member is safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I’ll treat your pet like one of my own and make sure they feel comfortable, cared for, and well loved. I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe and comfortable in their own home while you’re away.

About: When I was 9 or 10, I had a beloved pet that we sadly had to give away due to a tough moving situation. Years later, we were lucky to bring Charlie home and Marvel, and they have been cherished members of our family for a few years. As a remote college student, I understand how important it is to find reliable help for your pets. I'm here for you and available to pet sit any day of the week or over the weekend. Your furry friends will be in good hands! I can walk your dog every 2-3 hours to ensure they get the exercise and attention they need. Additionally, I have a fenced yard with cameras for safety, where they can play. My own dog, Charlie, a friendly, neutered, vaccinated maltipoo, would love to have a companion to share some fun with! And Cocker spaniel named Marvel (he isn’t neutered yet due to age) who is also vaccinated.
About: What sets me apart is the level of care, reliability, and attention I give to every pet. I understand that every animal has a unique personality and routine, so I take the time to get to know their individual needs and make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m patient with young pets who are still learning and gentle with senior pets who may need extra time, medication, or special accommodations. I communicate regularly with pet owners by providing updates and photos, so they have peace of mind while they’re away. My goal is to treat every pet as if they were my own, ensuring they receive the highest level of care and attention. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I plan my schedule to ensure pets receive consistent attention, including feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and any medications they may need. I enjoy spending time with animals and make their comfort and well-being a priority. Whether it’s early mornings, evenings, weekends, or regular check-ins throughout the day, I am committed to providing reliable, attentive care while maintaining each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible. I provide attentive, compassionate care tailored to each pet’s individual needs and the owner’s instructions. In my home or a client’s home, I make sure pets have fresh water, are fed on schedule, receive regular potty breaks, and get plenty of exercise, playtime, and affection. I also administer medications if instructed, monitor for any changes in behavior or health, and keep the environment clean, safe, and comfortable. I respect each client’s home by keeping it tidy, following all care instructions, and providing updates with photos and messages so owners know their pets are happy and well cared for while they’re away.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Penn Valley
Seana was so attentive to our shepherd while we were away on vacation. She made sure she was well taken care of and kept us at ease by sending many pictures of our girl looking happy and playing. We will certainly book Seana again in the future! She even cleaned our floors when it got dirty from our dog going in and out after it rained! She’s the best!
Brandi is amazing! She dropped in and took expert care of our 75lb adult rescue mutt. He’s a pretty dog but we’re in a new house so we were worried about his anxiety. She took care of the basics and even worked on some basic commands with him. We came home to a happy guy. Thank you Brandi!!

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.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Penn Valley choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book.

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 .
