About: I've been a pet owner and animal lover my whole life! I grew up with both cats and dogs, and have experience volunteering in animal shelters and watching friends' pets. I currently own both a dog and cat, and am happy to take care of both. I understand that pets are family and I'll treat them like my very own. My current job gives me very flexible work hours, and I can easily accommodate last-minute requests. I will provide a calm, reliable, caring experience for your pets. My current job provides me with a very flexible schedule during summer months. I can work most hours of the day (mornings, afternoons, evenings) and am more than happy to book any last-minute requests for sitting or walks. I have a car so I can easily drive to clients' homes for walks, check-ins or overnight stays. I have experience running my own small business, and I understand the importance of organization, communication and reliability with my clients. I love animals and getting to know them, and I will take care of your animals as if they're my own.
About: I’ve taken care of lots of types of dogs and cats. I have experience giving medicine to both dogs and cats ( I have experience with the cat burrito maneuver). I am patient with animals and do my best to meet them at their level. I am an owner of a high energy dog and she has taught me so much about talking care of pets. During the week, I have availability for lunchtime walks and evening hang. On the weekends, my schedule is much more open and I can be available whenever you need me. When taking a dog into a backyard I always make sure they are supervised. My pup is a jumper and can easily jump a fence. So I know what to look out for. When in a new spaces I always walk the fence line to check for any holes or loose boards. With indoor cats, I enter and exits the house carefully so nobody escapes. I understand cats can be shy, so i usually pick a spot and hang out quietly there and wait for the cat to come to me.
About: My family has always been a pet family, so I have been taking care of animals my entire life. In recent years, one of my pastimes has been walking dogs at shelters in order to meet their exercise needs. From big to small I have walked them all. I am currently a university student on summer break. My mornings to mid afternoons are free to take care of your pets. Weekends are also available. I am respectful of others homes and their preferences regarding their pets. Please let me know if you have any specific requests or things to avoid when taking care of your previous companion.
“I can’t say enough about how pleased I am with Bari and the way she took care of my border collie Woody. You can tell she has a genuine love for dogs and she takes her rover responsibilities very seriously. During my trip I was always in the know about how my dog was doing because Bari reached out to me each time she tended to him with texts and pictures which gave me peace of mind knowing that my dog is in great hands and being taken care of exceptionally well. I highly recommend Bari.”
About: In my younger years I was known as that house you could trust your pets with, which sadly led to less boarding and daycare services and more abandonment of pets on my doorstep. I accepted each surrender because I always figured better here with me then on the streets. After successfully adopting out all these love bugs to people I knew and trusted over the years, I've found myself in smaller quarters. I've found comfort and fulfillment in caring for outdoor cats (commonly referred to as strays) Taking in an orange Tabby to call my own in the process. I've made friends with neighbors who share the same love and passion and through these connections found community - a cat community! I currently care for three cats (siblings), house-sitting as well while their human parents are away. Each individual cat has it's different wants/needs. Through these experiences I've learned gaining trust and love is different for each individual feline. I'm looking to expand my care/services to neighboring cat families mainly because I love cats and know how important it is to have a community of cat folks in your corner when duty, vacation or emergencies call. I'm currently employed by Uber Eats so I make my own schedule. I'm open to weekend care as well. The only thing I do religiously is cultural dancing on Wednesday nights. My current clients are all indoor kitties so I am used to securing the household, feeding on a schedule throughout the day and doing enrichment with them be that play or individual love and cuddle time. I prepare meals specific to each cats needs, keep litterboxes and surrounding areas clean and keeping water stations fresh.
“Reece was fantastic! He offered a meet and greet to get to know my dog and me. He walked our dog a long distance even in the pouring rain! I would highly recommend Reece to care for your pet!”
“Roy did a fantastic job with my two pups! I contacted Roy to walk my dogs, to give them a break while I had to attend a 2 day, all-day, work event. Communication was excellent. I was updated with arrival times and provided status updates with photos. It really helped quell any anxiety I was having, since this was my first time using any kind of walking service. Roy provided a meet & greet prior to the scheduled walking appointments, which was awesome, since one of my pups can be a little on the shy side at first meeting. I would absolutely recommend Roy and plan to work with him again. Thank you, Roy!”
About: I have been an animal lover my entire life. When I was 8 years I care for and found homes for 2 liters of puppies for a neighbor. I have cared for all breeds shapes and sizes of fur and not so furry babies. All breeds welcome! ❤️ I’m a stay at home mom so my schedule is pretty open. I will have my tiny animal lover with me unless that that does not work for you. I can make other arrangements for her. ❤️ I have a home with a big yard on corner lot for day care or overnight care✨🌙. There are two very old smedium dogs that don’t get up much. I have baby gates up throughout the house so if anyone feels more comfortable in a section of the house they can have their own separate suite.
“Vahid took exceptional care of Rue and Reo over five days. He provided plenty of photos and constant updates, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. He was very attentive to their well-being and even let me know when the weather was too hot for them to safely walk, showing great judgment and care. Beyond the walks, Vahid spent time playing with the dogs and making sure they were happy and engaged. It was clear from the photos and updates that Rue and Reo genuinely loved spending time with him. His communication, reliability, and genuine affection for the dogs made the experience outstanding. I would highly recommend Vahid to anyone looking for a caring, responsible, and attentive dog walker.”
“Carolyn is just the absolute best thing that has happened to us! I can’t say enough about her. She is perfection wrapped up into a beautiful human. Thank you for everything you do for my baby girl 🥰”
“We felt very comfortable with Marina taking our lil' Bruno on a walk. It's clear that she loves dogs! Looking forward to more walks, and some boarding days too! Thank you!”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs since before I could remember! They’ve always been a part of my life, but I take extra care and gone the extra mile. So much so that I now volunteer to rescue pups and fly them to their new home! Check out my profile to see more. I would love to meet your furry family members and give them all the attention! I’m currently a full time flight instructor, but I benefit from making my own schedule. So I can make time for you and your family when you need me most! I’m very attentive to pets and I’m very aware of pets’ needs. Having been around animals my whole life, I have a good understanding of their mood and their needs. If they’re in a playful mood then sign me up! But when your bestie needs some time to themselves to ponder the meaning of chasing one’s tail, I totally get it and give them their space.
About: I’ve had and taken care of dogs my whole life. Also since being in the military, I will be punctual and make sure everything remains as organized as when I had arrived I’m on my college’s summer break and only intern a few hours a week; I have plenty of free time to meet your dog care needs! My yard is fenced and there is plenty of grass for them to play in. Also I can crate them if that if how you take care of them
Scc dog parents share their Rover experiences
Christine was an excellent walker for our dog Bella. She came over the day before to meet her, was exactly on time for her walk and sent to a of pictures even including some of our jealous kitty who doesn’t get to go outside! She was accommodating when I plugged in the wrong time and again when I had to cut my trip short due to my daughter getting ill. I will absolutely use Christine in the future!
Justin is fantastic. I've used him twice now when surgery has prevented me from walking my dog for a few weeks, or when I had a house sitter who wasn't up to dog walking. Justin is prompt, dependable, flexible when we needed to be, and, best of all, my dog really likes him! You can't go wrong with hiring Justin.
Amina was great! She responded to my request quickly, was punctual and proactively communicated. My grand dog warmed to her immediately and they had a great walk. She also helped me navigate the Rover app since I’m old - lol. I highly recommend her for walks and if I lived in the Sac area full time, I would use her regularly. She gave me peace of mind knowing he was well cared for. She was professional and personable and I can’t thank her enough!
Andrea is amazing. I had a logistically complicated day, coming through Sacramento from 1.5 hours away for a doctor appointment and then continuing on for the last two hours of my trip. I'd never met her so I was worried about all the chances for something to go wrong. But everything was *perfect*. First, Andrea was amazing about staying in touch, and answered questions quickly and cheerily. She was extremely flexible, and even showed up a bit early so I'd had no reason for anxiety. My pup Willie loved his time with her and her boyfriend. It couldn't have been a better experience. Thank you, Andrea!
Alexander did an excellent job walking my dogs, Rue and Reo. They were both patient and playful with them, which made a big difference in how comfortable and happy they were during each visit. It’s clear they genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs and know how to handle different personalities. I also really appreciated how communicative they were with me throughout the process. They kept me updated during each visit, which gave me peace of mind knowing my dogs were in good hands. I would definitely recommend Alexander to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog walker.
