“Wendy is amazing and her experience with dogs immediately shows! I was a little nervous as Lucy had never been walked by anyone other than us. I loved the pictures and videos Wendy sent showing Lucy was thoroughly enjoying her time out. We did not hesitate to rebook Wendy for recurring walks!”
2. Payton B.
“Payton has been so good to my pup! Very reliable and helpful in a pinch. My pup is so much happier because of her walk when I’m at work. Thank you Payton!”
3. Teri M.
“Teri is amazing. Very caring about my pet, and following our routines. She’s also very knowledgeable & safety focused, so I felt very comfortable leaving my pet in her hands while I was away. First Rover experience was exactly what I needed when I booked Teri! I will book her again when I’m back in Sacramento.”
4. Coryn M.
“I couldn't be happier with the experience! Coryn has a genuine love for animals and ensured comfort and familiarity with my fur babies. She is attentive, responsible, and followed all my instructions. I highly recommend Coryn to anyone looking for a reliable and loving caretaker for their dogs. I will definitely be using her services again in the future!”
5. Haley M.
“Haley M is extraordinary with dogs. She watched over our little 7 month old Cavapoo, Bindi, on several occasions. The very first occasion was just a couple of hours. However, amazingly, within that time, she managed to train her to sit, lie down, and shake hands. And, during subsequent visits, she has reinforced this training and our pup just loves her. We never hesitate to have Haley take care of our pup. We have also witness her with other pups and dogs. They all gravitate positively to this young lady. We highly recommend Haley for any dog sitting or walking activities. She has a natural way with dogs. You will not regret using Haley’s services. AAW”
6. Andrew F.
“Andrew is an amazing dog walker. He exhibited a nice and gentle manner with my animals. He took the time to have a "meet and greet" to meet my fur babies. I would recommend him to anyone requiring a dog walker.”
7. Louise G.
“Louise is great! She takes extra care of our 60 lb pit /lab mix puppy. She is very knowledgeable of animal care and its very cognizant of individual pet needs. She’ll send you photos/videos of your pet upon request. Will be booking again soon!”
8. Jordan B.
About: I have worked with dogs, cats and even birds since I was 7. Most of my experience has been with dogs and have trained and cared for newborns all the way to full grown dogs. I am a full time teacher of kiddos and the patience and kindness required form that experience definitely translates to working with animals. While summer begins I would like to spend more time with the pups so if you need help message me and lets see what I can do! As a full time teacher, I am fortunate to have summers off so my availability is very open. Just message and we can discuss what works best for both. II will not be housing pets and would prefer to care for your pets at your home. I think allowing the pets to stay in their homes is preferred but may take special requests if needed. I would like to have a walk through and understand areas your pet is allowed and not allowed and information about local parks and walk routes. Please provide dietary needs and eating schedule as well. I like to provide pics and updates to the owners a few times a day, Any questions, just ask!

“Testimonial I wholeheartedly recommend Mya as a dog walker and pet sitter. Having witnessed her exceptional care for her own cat, it's clear that she possesses a deep love for animals. I have known mya for 8 years and have witnessed her kindness and positivity shine through in every interaction. We also worked together in customer service for several years, and her professionalism and reliability were always evident. Mya is also passionate about staying active and enjoys the outdoors, which makes her a perfect fit for engaging with pets in an energetic and loving way. I would trust her with my pets without hesitation.”

“Ruby is exceptional with my cats! She genuinely enjoys spending quality time with them and cares for them as if they were her own. She's a great communicator, responsible, and attentive to all their needs, even coordinating with me seamlessly. She's looked after my cats on multiple occasions, and even my other pets (fish), during my long-term trips. I'm grateful I was recommended to her by a friend, and she's become my go-to sitter. I feel completely at ease knowing that Ruby is caring for my pets, as I trust she provides them with the utmost care and attention.”
14. Natalie O.
“Natalie does an amazing job taking care of my dog. He tends to be pretty reactive with squirrels on walks (leash tugging/growling) and she does a great job making sure everyone stays safe during walks. He loves seeing her and gets really excited when she comes by, which makes me feel good to know that my dog is in good hands.”
