About: I've been caring for dogs and cats since I was young and have owned and cared for my own pets for over 7 years. Through caring for my pets, as well as those of friends, family, and neighbors, I've gained experience with dogs of different sizes, breeds, energy levels, and personalities. I also volunteered at an SPCA shelter, where I worked with a variety of animals and learned the importance of patience, consistency, and attentive care. I fostered a pup from this shelter for 5 months. I'm physically active and enjoy long walks, outdoor activities, and playtime, so energetic dogs will get plenty of exercise and attention. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while providing owners with regular updates and photos for peace of mind. I currently have open availability and can easily work around your pet's routine. Whether they enjoy long walks, playtime, or a quieter day with plenty of attention, I'll make sure they get the care and companionship they need. I'm active and enjoy being outdoors, so dogs who love exercise and adventure are always welcome. I also have experience fostering pets! I believe pets are happiest when their normal routine is maintained, so I follow each owner's instructions closely regarding feeding, exercise, medications, and house rules. I take a patient approach with every animal and make sure they feel comfortable and secure in my care. My goal is to provide a stress-free experience for both pets and their owners, with regular updates and photos throughout their stay.
“Kara is the best. I usually do overnight boarding with her but I needed doggy day care and she was able to watch my dog even though it was last minute. She always communicates so well and sends pictures.”


About: What sets me apart from other sitters is the depth of my hands-on experience with animals in both volunteer and home settings. I’ve volunteered at animal shelters, where I gained experience caring for animals with different personalities, backgrounds, and needs. At home, I’ve also cared for five pets, so I understand the consistency, patience, attentiveness, and responsibility that come with managing multiple animals at once. I’m comfortable adapting to each pet’s individual routine and temperament while making sure they feel safe, cared for, and given plenty of attention. I am currently working part-time in a remote position, which provides me with a flexible schedule and allows me to dedicate ample time and attention to caring for pets. I provide attentive, reliable, and personalized care based on each pet’s individual needs and routine. Whether caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I make sure they have fresh food and water, regular walks and potty breaks, playtime, companionship, and plenty of attention. I carefully follow feeding schedules, household instructions, and any specific care preferences provided by the owner. I also prioritize maintaining a clean, comfortable, and safe environment so pets can feel secure while their owners are away.
“So glad my doggo and Sara are good with each other. Because of summer Valley heat it’s necessary to provide a safe place for Terra while in long appointments. Sara is a good resource. Thank you!”


“Krystle was great since the beginning! She took us the same hour we searched for her on a Sunday. Krystle updated us with pictures and nice comments about our dog. We saw that she has a LOT of experience with dogs. Our 10yr old Golden Retriever came back happy! We would come back and recommend her to any of our friends.”

About: I’m super reliable my schedule is very flexible, affordable, and very much welcoming! I’ve always had a passion for animals since a little girl. I grew up with 2 dogs and 1 cat that I loved the most. I cannot wait to meet all your fur babies! I work a full time job currently working from home. So I thought this would be a big opportunity for me to do what I love and that’s being with my fur baby. Can’t wait meet all these fur babies and just be willing to help others. I have an open patio for the pups.yes patio is gated all around also inside home is also open for these fur babies I have a cat of my own and she very welcoming and soft when others come around.
About: I have taken care of animals since I was 10. I have taken care of my two dogs, both a small dog and a large dog, by feeding, bathing, walking, and training them. I have additional experience taking care of a variety of other animals, such as chickens, pigs, and goats. I have a very flexible schedule and am available to work throughout the week and on weekends. I am available all day for pet care. I have a large yard for your dog(s) to play in and take walks, as well as crates if wanted for boarding. I am available to take your dog on daily walks. I also can do animal care for cats and other pets/farm animals.

About: Hi, my name is Jenn! I've grown up around animals my entire life. When I am not pet sitting, I foster both cats and dogs, which has given me experience working with senior pets, puppies, kittens, and animals that need extra patience and support. I believe pet care goes beyond basic needs. I take the time to ensure pets feel safe, mentally stimulated, and comfortable. Whether that means positive reinforcement training, enriching play, and giving them extra affection. I also love baking homemade healthy snacks for pets and enjoy learning new ways to ensure your pet is happy. For the next three months, my schedule is flexible. I am available to board pets during the weekdays and weekends. I can accommodate various schedules for people who are vacationing or need a dog walker. I strive to create a calm and fun environment for your pet. Currently, there are no children in my home which allows for a quieter more relaxed setting for pets who may need extra comfort or routine. In my home, I have plenty of space for your pet's needs. I have one dog and two cats that are friendly with other dogs and cats. However, I can also accommodate an additional room or a separate area for your pet. Simply share your preference, and I can accommodate it.
“Great communication and felt that my pug Odin was taking well care of. Very flexible with drop off and pick up times. It was so nice having a tired dog after work. Will definitely book again and highly recommend.”

About: 🌟 What Sets Me Apart: Attentive, Heat-Conscious Care & Pug-Approved HospitalityMy pet care experience is rooted deeply in the daily love and specialized care I provide for my own beloved pug, Benito, who is turning four this October! Raising a flat-faced breed in Fresno has given me critical, hands-on experience in keeping dogs safe, happy, and healthy. Flat-Faced & Heat-Sensitive Care: I am highly experienced in monitoring breathing, energy levels, and heat exhaustion. Bilingual & Smart Communication: Benito is fully bilingual, understanding commands in both English and Spanish! Food-Motivated Positive Reinforcement: Benito is highly food-motivated and loves his tricks. I excel at using pet-safe treats, positive praise, and structured rewards to keep guest dogs feeling confident, comfortable, and motivated in my home. A Built-In Best Friend: Benito is incredibly friendly and welcoming. He provides a calm, low-stress environment for guest dogs who need a gentle companion to lounge with while I study. 📅 How Pet Care Fits Into My RoutineBecause I study from home full-time, my schedule is incredibly stable, flexible, and entirely open for pet care! Your furry friend will never be left alone for long periods and will receive constant companionship throughout the day. My routine revolves around my own pug, Benito, and keeping him safe from the intense Fresno summer heat. Your pet will seamlessly join our daily routine: Morning Exercise: We wake up early to catch the coolest part of the day, heading out for morning walks before the pavement heats up. Daytime Study Buddies: During the scorching mid-day hours, your dog will relax inside a fully air-conditioned home with Benito and me. They can lounge on the cool floors right next to my desk while I study. Evening Wind-Down: Once the sun goes down and temperatures dip, we head out for final evening walks and backyard potty breaks before settling in for a quiet night. As a dedicated pet caregiver, your dog's safety and emotional well-being are my absolute top priorities. I know how stressful it can be to leave your furry family member behind, which is why I focus on structured care, constant communication, and a secure environment.

“Kendra was fantastic! She sent me fun pictures and videos that made me so comfortable with my pup being there. She was easy to communicate with and provided the best experience. My pup even put herself to bed early last night after having so much fun at Kendra’s.”

“I cannot say enough amazing things about Jennifer! They took such incredible care of my Jace, while I was away. From the moment we met, I knew Jace was in loving, capable hands. They kept me updated with daily photos and messages that made me feel completely at ease—and honestly, Jace looked like he fit it right at home. It was clear they treated him like family, giving him plenty of playtime and attention. He came home happy, calm, and clearly well-loved.

Heather was absolutely amazing! Our puppy is very vocal and can be a handful sometimes, but she was so patient, caring, and understanding with him. She took great care of him all day, and we really appreciate all the attention and kindness she showed him. Thank you so much, Heather! We will definitely be bringing Archie back to you the next time we need daycare. Highly recommend!

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 San Joaquin River Estates 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.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
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 Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
