About: I’ve been caring for animals since I was 10 years old, starting by helping my parents with there pet-sitting. By the time I turned 14, I began pet sitting on my own, and I’ve been trusted ever since. Neighbors, friend, and family rely on me to walk, feed, bathe, and look after their pets like they’re my own With years of hand-on experience, I understand how important it is to keep pet safe, happy, and comfortable. Whether it’s daily walks, drop-ins, or full-time care, I’m committed to giving every pet the attention and love they deserve. My schedule is flexible, and I’m available throughout the week for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting. I plan my days around the pets I care for, making sure they get consistent attention, timely feedings, and regular outdoor time. Whether you need early-morning help, mid-day visits, or evening care, I work to accommodate your routine and keep your pet’s day running smoothly. Safety is always my top priority. I make sure every pet is supervised, secure, and cared for according to their routine and needs. I follow instructions closely, keep environments clean, and pay attention to details so pets stay comfortable and stress-free. Families, neighbors, and friends have trusted me for years because I treat every animal with patience, respect, and consistency. Your pet’s well-being comes first, and I work hard to create a calm, safe environment they can relax in.
“Ciara did an amazing job with our very rambunctious puppy! She loved playing with Arlo! Parker is all out full energy all the time and Ciara handles her with calm and ease. She even gave her a bath after she got into some mischief in the backyard mud. Thank you:)”
About: I've taken care of dogs, since I was 10. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets. In my family we have all ways had 2 small dogs, and now I have my current dog of 5 years, love him so much like my baby, sleeps and cuddles with me all the time. I'm currently a stay at home mom, so I have plenty of time to play/walk with your pups! I'm available for dog walking, while my son is in school and in the afternoon. Open availability on the weekends. I think trust is important when it comes to animals. Animals need to smell you first to get to know you. I always let an animal smell my hand and then I’ll ease into petting them once I can tell from body language if they want me to.
About: A genuine pet care experience focuses on heartfelt connections, understanding your pet’s unique needs, and offering loving, attentive care that feels like home for your furry companion. I work from home, so I have the flexibility to adjust my schedule and take care of your fur babies when it’s most convenient for you. We can easily coordinate on times and dates that work best. :) At home, I’d ensure pets get nutritious food, daily playtime, a clean environment and plenty of love / attention to keep them happy and healthy.
“It was the first time using this service both Gerald and Debbie were so welcoming! Chloe was a first time visitor and she made herself right at home. We are looking forward to another visit soon. If we could give a ten star rating we would!!! A huge hug to Baloo for being such a gentle giant with Chloe, I hope the two of them become besties over time!!!”
“This is my first time using Rover. Hortensia arranged a meeting a few days prior to us entrusting our dog, Honey, to her care. During this meeting, she showed us her home and yard, where the dogs typically relax. Honey quickly settled in and appeared quite comfortable. Hortensia provided excellent care for Honey and followed all the instructions we provided. We will most certainly reach out to her again for future pet care needs for Honey. Thank you Hortensia!”
About: I’ve spent over 15 years caring for pets of all kinds — from playful puppies, energetic dogs to senior pets who need a little extra love. Animals have always been a big part of our family, and we’ve been surrounded by friends, neighbors, and relatives who trust us to care for their pets while they’re working or traveling. I’m responsible and treat every pet as if they were my own. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, feeding, or simply offering companionship, I make sure each pet feels safe, happy, and loved! Currently, I work from home running our family business, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time for pets. Caring for animals fits naturally into our daily routine. My twin daughters love to help shower pets with affection, and there’s always someone around to give walks, cuddles, or playtime. Pets blend seamlessly into our home life. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. We have a fully fenced yard with lots of room to run and play safely. Inside, pets can relax in a calm, loving environment alongside our sweet 2 year old cat. She is social and used to being around other pets, but I always supervise and take time to make sure every guest feels secure and at ease. All pets must be up to date on vaccinations. Any dogs that show aggression to people or other dogs will be separated and/or crated.
“Jaycee and Brendan are a super sweet couple, and were very welcoming to Louis and me. I felt very comfortable leaving Louis with them, and sure enough he was in good hands with them. Will absolutely use them again when needed. Thank you Jaycee and Brendan, appreciate both of you!”

About: Experience with two adorable small dogs - a sweet Junior, Shih Tzu, and Oliver, our friendly Lhasa Apso. Both Junior and Oliver are indoor dogs that bring joy and warmth to our home. We adopted them from the San Jose animal shelter approximately 9 years ago, and they have been cherished members of our family ever since. **Our Dogs:** - **Junior (Shih Tzu):** Junior is a lovable, calm, and cuddly companion. He enjoys lounging around, playing with soft toys, and receiving gentle pets. His affectionate nature makes him a perfect family dog. - **Oliver (Lhasa Apso):** Oliver is equally chill and enjoys snuggling up with us. He loves gentle walks and is always ready for a bit of fun. His playful yet calm demeanor is a wonderful complement to Junior's personality. I have the wonderful opportunity to work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule that allows me to adapt to your needs. This means I’m available to provide ample love and care whenever your furry friend. We like to follow a schedule to keep routine with how you do things at home with your pet. Consistency is very important to us.
“Easy to work with and confirmed quickly. Drop off and pick up was straight forward. Left my little pup for about 5 hours, Monica sent pictures during the stay and was easy to communicate with. Seemed like my doggie enjoyed his stay would rebook. Thanks!”
About: I’ve always had pets of my own all different breeds and sizes. I’ve taken care of many of my clients pets from senior homes when needed. I walk, feed, bathe, play and love pets as my own. I currently work part time so I have a lot of availability I also only live about 5 minutes from my job so it’s never an issue. Whether I am caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, their safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I follow each pet’s regular routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication (if needed), and any special instructions provided by the owner. I make sure pets always have fresh water, plenty of attention, exercise, and a clean environment. I closely monitor their behavior and well-being to ensure they are comfortable and stress-free while their family is away. I also provide lots of affection and companionship, treating every pet with the same care, patience, and love that I give my own pets. Most importantly, I carefully follow every detail and direction requested by the owner so their pet receives personalized care tailored to their needs.
About: Animals respond very well to my alpha affirmative re enforcing ‘communication style.’ Ask about successfully outcomes using hand signal and sound triggers. Experience ‘training while skateboarding’ programs with multiple dogs, training while in different individual and group settings, with routine practice and behavioral practice training and help setting up a program to improve animal behaviors. Follower in practice of Cesar Millan, the dog trainer. I am a full time work from home dad, this may sound like an oxymoron, but my schedule is very flexible. Lets see how your needs can fill in my schedule. Pets have isolated environments at my home, food/water, crates, plus an outside shared area located in an active populated neighborhood with many parks within walking distance.

I want to thank Ana for how she treats my Puppy like it was her very own, My Puppy looks forward to going with her and playing with his little buddies, it's like he goes to Disneyland for the day, he comes back so happy and just wants to rest from all the fun he has, I love the pictures and videos i get through out the day, I look at them and smile : ) knowing that he is having a blast while I'm at work, I'm not going to lie but I'm kind of jealous that he is having all the fun and I'm stuck at work LOL : ) I also want to thank Rovers for choosing sitters like Ana, my puppy means the world to me and it's nice to trust that he will be more then taken care of, I recommend Ana 150% i wish there were more stars I can give, Thanks again : )

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Salida commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
As of October 2026, there are 374 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across the region of CA. Enter your address or desired location to see which available sitters are closest to you.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in CA ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
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. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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 .
