About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 10 years and currently have a pup of my own who I absolutely adore. Over the past five years, I’ve also looked after many of my friends’ and family’s dogs—of all ages, sizes, and energy levels. I love getting to know each dog’s personality and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. I’m excited to meet your dog and will care for them like they’re part of my own family! I also have experience with topical and oral medication administration and puppies. I’m currently working part time and sometimes remotely so I have plenty of time to spend with your pets. I would love the opportunity to care for them like my own. I take the safety of pets extremely seriously. As a dog and cat parent myself, I understand how important it is to ensure gates, doors, and fences are secure at all times. During walks, I stay alert to the environment, avoid hazards, and use secure leashes and harnesses. For drop-in visits, I make sure the home is safe, and I always double-check that pets are secure before leaving. Your pet’s safety and well-being are my top priorities at every visit.

“Zoe is great! Our dog Jackson is high energy and can be difficult, but Zoe handles him confidently and with care. We feel comfortable going out of town knowing that Zoe will check on Jackson while we are away.”

About: I always wanted to have a dog but my current situation does not allow me to do so easily. Thanks for Rover so that I can walk your dog while you need someone to take him or her for a walk. : ) Um.... should I mention I'm a working professional with no criminal record? Oh! And I personally have two cats. I am 100% working remotely so usually free during lunch or evenings. If it’s close to home, I can also drop by multiple times a day. All fur babies need love and attention. Even though we don’t speak our pets’ languages, they can feel the love from us ❤️ it’s that simple

About: I grew up around dogs of all sizes and ages, but in 6th grade I finally got my own puppy! I was responsible for crate training, potty training, and all of her other needs. My “puppy” is 9 years old now, and she has been loved her entire life. I am a current college student enjoying the summer break. I am available 7 days a week, with only a few hours of the week dedicated to my part time job, leaving plenty of time to check-in, play, or walk your fur baby! I will follow any guidelines you have for your dog! I am experienced with crate training, walking, playing, etc. I am also willing to follow/learn any medical or dietary needs your pet has to ensure their wellbeing is the top priority.

“Dina was so kind and so great with my kitties! I felt so comfortable knowing she was watching them, and appreciated the pictures and updates. Thank you!”

About: I grew up in multi dog homes with large and small breeds (a Lab, a Weimie, a GSP, and 2 frenchies). I have PLENTY of experience walking, feeding, playing, cleaning up after, and interpreting body language of dogs. I’ve taken care of dogs in every life stage including puppies and seniors. Having a dog of my own hasn’t been feasible since moving to Davis for various reasons but I miss having furry companions! I’ve been getting my fix by walking and sitting for my friends and coworkers as well as volunteering with the “Barks and Rec” program at the Bradshaw Animal Shelter. An awesome program where shelter dogs get some much needed time out of the shelter and in front of potential adopters. The German Shepherd (named Dexter) in my profile picture was my last dog through the program and we had a lovely time walking along the American River. I work full time as a researcher in the agricultural biotech space. My hours are a bit flexible but usually hover around the 9am-4pm range. On weekdays, I’d be available for drop in visits/walks in the morning before work and in the afternoons after work. If necessary, a lunchtime visit may be feasible. Weekends are very flexible! You know your pet best! I’m most comfortable following your tried and true routines and rules so you and your pup can feel comfortable and at ease knowing I’m caring for them exactly as you would.

“Maddie was very attentive to my cats and was very thorough in her check in. She made sure to leave photos of my cats and write detailed notes. Maddie went above and beyond for us as she noticed there were some ants leaving to our cats food bowl and helped clean those up for us. Thank you so much Maddie and we would definitely have you help us in the future!”

About: I have been in love with cats and small dogs for as long as I can remember. I grew up with 4 cats, 2 pigeons, a pittie mix, and 2 small dogs in my home, and immediately adopted my own cat once I moved out. I've been pet sitting across multiple platforms since I was 15. Your larger, active dog loves the fact that I am runner. Your cat and senior dogs love the way they can cuddle up to me while I'm constantly writing. I'm here for the quality time, and here because if I could adopt every cat and dog in the world, I absolutely would. I am excited to bond with your pet and make them feel like someone loving and familiar is still around while you are on your trip away! Excepting the other Rover sits, I work on a contract and freelance schedule, so my schedule is relatively flexible. Shoot me a message and let's see if we can make it work. Even if I'm fully booked, go ahead and reach out and I'll see if I can squeeze you in. One might say I'm obsessed with cats and dogs. I tend to bond easily with animals since my priority is keeping each pet comfortable in their own routine and home. Communication is huge for me - I care to pick up on your pet's cues. I have compassion for the signals, and know when to give space, and how to comfort. I love caring for small sensitive dogs. Small is not less to me. I'm small. I really care to coax them into feeling calm and safe.

“Kate did a great job with our dog Samantha. Highly recommended!”

“Amy took great care of our dogs while we were away. She worked with me on the drop-in schedule to ensure the least disruption to their normal routine. I appreciated the Rover cards and photos from each visit. And being responsive when I checked in. Thanks, Amy!”

About: Experienced with a lifelong love for animals, I've handled dogs of all sizes. Like children, dogs thrive on attention and care. I see them as intelligent beings, and in my care, they enjoy a worry-free, fun stay or a reassuring visit. Your pups will have the time of their lives! As an independent contractor, I am self employed and fit my schedule fit my responsabilities. With all of the time in the world, I can focus on my clients' pet care with ease. Pet care at my home is consistent across all of my services, providing ample care and support. I've assisted anxious pups, prioritizing their safety and well-being.

About: I am Cat and Dog First Aid Certified through the American Red Cross, Certified Pet Expert (CPS-DW), and an active member of Pet Sitters International (PSI). I am currently working on becoming a CPPS-Certified Professional Pet Sitter. Though I am new to pet sitting, I am constantly learning about pet care and safety. Having grown up with pets, I understand they become members of the family. I cared for my sister’s former miniature poodle Sandy and have grown up with various breeds like chihuahuas and a dachshund. Though I do not own pets anymore due to my lifestyle and living arrangements, I miss being around them. My friends told me about Rover and I jumped right in! I offer personalized care, including daily walks and playtime. I ensure your dog feels safe, loved, and well-cared for! As a Certified Pet Expert, I believe in using positive reinforcement instead of negative methods like e-collars or leash corrections, as they can harm trust and lead to aggression. While I'm not a dog trainer and won't suggest how to teach your dog, I'll happily follow your instructions and support your dog's training (: I work part-time and my availability changes weekly, so feel free to reach out for specific dates. I’m flexible and happy to accommodate your pet’s needs whenever possible! While walking your pet, I ensure they get plenty of exercise and mental stimulation, following their preferred pace and routine. I prioritize safety by keeping them on a leash and being mindful of their surroundings. For house sitting, I maintain your pet’s routine, providing meals, playtime, and cuddles. I make sure they feel secure and comfortable in their own home. I also handle light tasks like cleaning up after your pet, keeping the litter box tidy, and sending you regular updates on their well-being. Your pet will feel loved and well cared for while you're away!

“I recently hired Brooke to cat-sit for our beloved feline, Nacho, and I couldn't be happier with the service she provided. She was attentive, responsible, and showed genuine care and affection towards Nacho. Brooke went above and beyond to make sure Nacho was well-fed, entertained, and had a clean environment. I highly recommend her services and will definitely be reaching out to her again in the future. Five stars!”

“Esmerilda was absolutely fantastic! I had very poor planning but she accepted my last minute booking. She sent me a ton of pictures and little stories of how my cat Bear Bear was doing which set my mind at ease about having to be away. She also made sure he got his meds, was well fed, and given all the scratches and cuddles. I highly recommend her to others.”

About: Having grown up in rural areas, I have twenty years of experience caring for and pet sitting all types of animals, from dogs and cats to goats, cows, and rabbits. I have cared for dogs as puppies through their end of life care, and I am confident in giving medications and palliative care for older dogs to make sure they are as comfortable as possible while you are traveling. I am a graduate student, which gives lots of flexibility for early mornings, late nights, and midday check ins- whatever your family needs! I am based in Davis, CA, and love to take walks all through the area. I have many years of experience in both domestic pet care and have been trained in veterinary settings to care for orphaned and injured wildlife and neonatal kittens. Safety in care is of the utmost importance to me, and I am able to handle any emergencies that may come through.

About: I got my first dog when I was nine, and then my family adopted the other two dogs and they stay with us till now. I have a lot of animal friends during my childhood, dogs, cats, lizards, rabbit and hamsters. I am currently Major in animal science and conservation biology in UC Davis. I got my animal behavior assistant certificate last year, and I also have plenty of experiences with animal care and training. I am now taking professional trainer courses and aiming to become a specialized dog trainer this year! My schedule is pretty flexible, and will stay longer at home than normal. Please contact me 48-72h prior, so that we can make it work perfectly! I live in a townhouse with my family. I have a 7-year-old well socialized cat, and a 2 year old dog who passed the AGC test this July! He is already neutered, very friendly and knows to respect other's space. I have a dog park 4mins-walk away from my house, and I will take my dog to the dog park everyday to get plenty of exercise. The doggos will not be kept together when I am not at home. This aims for maximize the safety for both animals. I will not leave home longer than 4 hours during boarding time, and I promise one family per boarding!
