About: Hi, I'm Stacy! Dogs have been a central part of my life for as long as I can remember. Over the years, I’ve had the joy of raising and caring for a huge variety of breeds—from powerful and energetic pups like Dobermans and Pit Bulls to speedy Greyhounds and tiny Yorkies. I understand that every dog has a totally unique personality and requires a tailored approach, whether they need confident leadership, gentle patience, or just endless belly rubs. Currently, my home is run by my two amazing boys: Winston, a sweet Cocker Spaniel/Shih Tzu mix, and Pablo, my big, goofy rescue hound mix. I am very accustomed to strict feeding routines and prepping home-cooked meals, specific vegetables, and daily supplements. If your dog has a sensitive stomach, allergies, or a highly specific diet, I will follow your instructions. Whether your dog is a tiny senior looking for a quiet cuddle or a big, goofy rescue needing confident handling and long walks, I can't wait to meet them! I’m currently completing my degree, which gives me a highly flexible daily schedule and plenty of free time. I am available to drop in most days at almost any time, whether your pets need an early morning breakfast, a midday walk, or an evening play session. Your pet’s safety is my top priority. I am highly comfortable managing medical needs and have hands-on experience administering daily injections for sick rescue kittens. I bring the same level of discipline and alertness from my military career to pet care, ensuring strict adherence to any medication or specialized dietary instructions you leave. I always maintain a calm environment and stay hyper-vigilant during walks or drop-ins so you can have complete peace of mind.

About: I’ve grown up with (and pet sat) tons of different animals! I can work with dogs, cats, horses, goats/sheep, birds, reptiles, rodents, you name it! Cool with feeding, watering, potty breaks, administering medicines, cleaning, etc. I’ve been doing dog training for about two years now, and am comfortable working with fearful/reactive animals too. Tons of experience across all fields! I’m a part-time college student with a lot of time on my hands! I think pets deserve all the love and attention I can provide for them, and I’m happy to do just that. Following routines is my jam! Feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, just let me know what you and your furry friends prefer and I’m happy to follow your lead!

About: Ive taken care of many different animals since I was young, I have prior sitting and walking experience with family members and friends as clients. I am a gentle animal lover and genuinely care about your animals well being and happiness! I am currently working at a part time job at the mall, I don't get many hours so I have an open schedule to take care of your animals! I will always make sure you as the client tell me details about your home area so I can make sure i can apply those limitations into the pet care I provide. I will never disrespect your space or your fur baby.

“Zetta, is simply the best! Professional, trustworthy, and genuinely caring, they provided outstanding care for our cat while we were away. We loved receiving updates and photos, and our cat was happy and relaxed when we returned home. We wouldn't hesitate to book again and highly recommend them to anyone needing pet care.”

“Absolutely amazing! Being my first experience I was a little nervous but, immediately felt comfortable when I saw the way my dogs were around her. Pics and updates were great allowing me to feel free to enjoy my trip. 100% would recommend and do this again..”


About: Ever since I was 10 I've taken care of dogs. I have experience in many different ages of dogs from newborn puppies to full grown. With the school year starting I am unavailable Tuesdays and Thursdays. However, when I am available your pets will be getting the best care possible and my full attention I will always be willing to feed, clean, play and walk with your pets if they need it. I can stay overnight too as well.

About: I’ve taken care of animals all my life and am well equipped for any scenarios that might arise. A caring passionate individual like myself is perfect to care, and be responsible for your amazing baby. I am a fresh college graduate from Sac state with my major in geology. My research dives into fish otolith's, where we test strontium to calcium ratios to estimate prehistoric sea temperatures. I am dependable, caring and attentive for animals any time of day. I like to have a dog or cat proof environment at all times, allowing peach of mind for me and the safety of the animal. My home has housed many different dogs and cats so it’s been full proof of any situation.

About: I have taken care of dogs and cats since I started walking. I currently have a beautiful bengal named nova and a tiny chihuahua named lucky. I used to dog sit and help out with my neighbors senior dog as well. I have looked after my friend’s animals for years. All dogs are puppies to me no matter the size or age! I currently am a stay at home mom looking for work to make a little money doing something I love and that means spending time with animals! I am willing to be flexible and extend what hours I am available if discussed ahead of time. I would love to do walks and enjoy your fur babies to help people. I have always been very sure to make sure all gates/fences are closed, all doors are closed, pets are accounted for and making sure meds are dispersed correctly. Your pets are safe with me.

About: I have experience caring for my own two dogs and previously cared for my cat for many years. Through caring for my own pets, I’ve gained experience with feeding, walks, playtime, administering basic care, and recognizing when a pet needs extra attention or comfort. I understand that every pet has a unique personality, and I’ll treat yours with the same patience, love, and care I would give my own. I attend college fully online, so I’m home most of the day and have a very flexible schedule. This allows me to give pets plenty of attention, companionship, playtime, potty breaks, and walks throughout the day. Your pet will receive consistent care. I live in a pet-friendly apartment community with plenty of grassy areas for potty breaks and walks. Because I attend college fully online, I’m home most of the time and can provide frequent bathroom breaks, exercise, supervision, and companionship throughout the day. I understand how important it is to keep pets safe, comfortable, and on their normal routine, and I’ll care for your pet as if they were my own. For everyone’s safety and comfort, my own dogs will always be kept completely separate from any pets in my care. They will never be in the same room or have direct contact. This allows me to provide a calm, safe environment while giving your pet my full attention and ensuring every animal remains comfortable.
“Our kitties look forward to Elizabeth’s visits. We employ getting pics that let us know how they are doing. It gives us peace of mind to know they are so well cared for.”

“Sonjia is amazing with my cat!! She is very kind, flexible, and wonderful to work with. She understands what it’s like to be away from your pet and takes the time to care for and play with them like they’re her own 🥹”


About: I have hands‑on experience caring for pets of all personalities, and I’m especially good with shy or sensitive animals who need extra patience. I read body language well, move gently, and create a calm environment where pets feel safe and understood. I follow routines carefully, handle feeding and litter/crate care confidently, and tailor my approach to each pet’s emotional needs. I also send clear updates and sweet photos so you always feel connected to your pet. My goal is to provide reliable, loving, princess‑level care that keeps every animal comfortable and every owner at ease. I work best with fast-paced short shifts, I prefer flexible work and thrive independently. And pet care fits right into that for me. Also I love animals more than people. I care for pets in a way that keeps them comfortable, safe, and completely at ease whether they’re staying in my home or I’m caring for them in yours. In my home, I create a calm, clean, and cozy environment where pets can relax, explore, and feel secure. I follow their routines closely, offer gentle companionship, and make sure they get plenty of love, attention, and quiet comfort. When I’m in a client’s home, I respect their space, maintain their pet’s normal schedule, and keep everything consistent so the animal feels safe and stress‑free. I move softly, communicate clearly, and tailor my care to each pet’s personality. My goal is always the same: to make every pet feel like royalty and every owner feel completely confident while they’re away.
“Alexis was exceptional! My cat absolutely adored her and was able to make the space her home away from home. She went above and beyond in her service and flexibility and really let me feel comfortable leaving my cat in her care.”

About: Hello! :) My name is Mari & I grew up around various animals ranging from horses, cattle, livestock, and of course- dogs! I’m a huge animal lover & treat them with the utmost respect. I make it a high priority that pet owners & their fur babies feel safe, comfortable & confident with me. I can’t wait to meet your furry friend! ☺️ I have availability Friday - Sunday. I like to make sure pets & their owners feel safe with me. I always make sure I’m keeping up with routines, diet, exercise, etc. Respecting animals and their homes is a top priority for me. I always want to make sure that my clients can entrust in me and that they feel confident in my care and that their pet feels safe around me at all times whether their owner is present or not.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Rio Linda
Ashley really came through for us on short notice after we moved into a new city. Glad to say we plan to work with her in the future. She was a delight to interact with and the cats loved her. Set a good schedule that she followed and gave us great daily updates while we were out of the country. Very trustworthy and was great also for helping keep an eye on the house.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.

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 .
