“My puppy loves his walks but he also loves playing with other dogs. Pedro took him to the dog park to give him a chance to really play and run off his energy. Pedro is so good about looking for ways to help dogs enjoy their outings. I highly recommend him.”

About: As I studied animal science for the majority of my high school and college career, I have learned the necessities of various animals and worked with them from a very young age. This has given me a great deal of patience and experience, as I have taken care of dogs with speical needs, and even more exotic animals like guinea pigs, rabbits, lizards, and farm animals. I have prior experience volunteering at Bradshaw Animal Shelter, as well as Priceless Pets Vet Clinic in Southern California. My own golden retriever unfortunately passed away, and he had a condition called Megaesophagus, which is a condition that required him to sit up in a bailey chair to eat and take medication three times daily— he taught me a lot about caring for special needs dogs. I now have two rabbits and a bearded dragon, but I love dogsitting because I miss having my own dog as well. I love to meet various personalities and get to know everyone’s fur babies. I am a realtor and personal trainer, so my schedule is completely self-determined. I train clients early mornings, and any realtor duties I have are scheduled independently so I can work with tons of needs for dogs. I would love to come feed your dog and take them for bathroom breaks, as well as playing and walking with them! I understand how hard it can be for some dogs to be alone while you are out, so I will spend great time with them. I am a very active individual so I can walk as long as needed, and I am open to other activities as well! I provide consistent updates so you can feel comfortable that your dog is taken care of.

“Edwin is polite, flexible, dependable and accommodating. Oso enjoyed his walks with him and we hope we can book more walks in the future. We truly recommend Edwin to care for your dog. Oso loved Edwin from the minute he stepped in our home. Thank you Edwin!”

About: It has been said to me that my first words as a child were ... barking! While I don't remember that, I do remember always having a connection with all furry companions. I grew up with dogs and cats and on occasion would visit my great grandparents' ranch, with horses, goats and more. I loved giving the animals snacks. More recently, I moved onto a small farm. I helped take care of over a dozen chickens and 2 turkeys; feeding, watering, cleaning the coop. My formal career experience has been in education. In addition to many childcare and classroom support jobs, I also taught public school for 5 years. In either environment, my natural tendency is using my natural empathy to provide personalized care. I am not only a sitter on Rover, but have used the service myself to board my cat before. I know what it's like to leave your baby in someone else's hands! Please communicate specifically to me so that we can rest assured all needs are met for your beloved pet(s). I will treat your furry family member like I would want mine to be treated - patiently, attentively, carefully and lovingly - and only ask that you communicate any expectations or other information clearly and thoroughly. I may ask a lot of questions to clarify, and welcome any of yours! (Además soy bilingüe ❤️) I currently update my schedule on a week-by-week basis. I work part-time as an in-home Instructor for developmentally disabled adults. This is only during weekdays. My availability will vary due to the unique schedule of that job. For example, if a client has a cold, that would be a cancellation on short notice, which would allow me to be available with Rover. So far I've had sufficient flexibility to pet sit and especially housesit in the area. I will reply to your request ASAP and we can go from there. Thank you! For this reason, I prefer to fill my schedule on a day-to-day basis, or at least weekly. I'm happy to answer any questions about specifics, so there is no confusion. Naturally, I'll provide the same consideration I'd expect from someone taking care of my home or pet. Most owners have written instructions down and that has been helpful. I tend to note things down myself, even if they're very simple, just to assure that they are not forgotten. I'll be detail oriented, focused, careful and respectful.

About: I’ve grown up in an animal-filled home and currently have three dogs of my own. For the past two years, I’ve been a dog sitter/dog walker, and have provided services such as; drop-in visits, doggy daycare, overnight house sitting, bathing, and walks. I love being around animals and want to make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for! I’m available 6 days a week, excluding Mondays, from 11 AM to 10 PM. I’m currently looking for part-time work and would love to help fill my schedule by caring for animals! I have a fenced backyard, a bunch of toys and treats, and two friendly dogs who love to play. I can separate dogs if needed.

About: ⚠️all previous dogsitting has been done off rover⚠️. I treat every animal as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and spoiled with plenty of attention and affection. With years of experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities, I understand that every pet has unique needs. I’m experienced in giving oral medications and am comfortable following special care instructions to keep your pet healthy and happy. Whether your dog is energetic and playful or prefers a slower pace, I’ll provide personalized care, regular exercise, and lots of love while you’re away. I know how important it is to stay connected while you’re away, so I’ll send plenty of photos and updates throughout the day so you can see all the fun activities, walks, playtime, and cuddles your pup is enjoying. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your furry family member is happy, safe, and in caring, reliable hands. I am currently going to school at Sacramento State University, going into my junior year. This upcoming semester starts late August, I have classes Tuesdays & Thursdays from 10-5pm. I am also actively doing weekly visits with Lucy (in pictures). I typically have an open schedule, and can always make time for any animal! I have 3 acres of land and 2 energetic dogs, I feed and give water to them daily. I also take them to run the yard daily. I have 4 cats which one is my personal cat, I feed and give water daily ( clean litter box every 2 days). I also have a turtle which I let stand in the sun daily for 15 minutes ( with monthly tank cleanings. I just recently got 5 female chickens, I give them a fresh water bucket and full feeder daily.

“Holly made herself available a couple of times when I needed help unexpectedly. She responded quickly and Anika was well exercised after their walks.”

About: Dogs have always been part of my life. I treat every pup like family, with patience, love, attention, and genuine care every day. Love dogs I’m available majority of the time and can rearrange schedule if needed. I have a dog and can easily take on another one to fit into our daily routine. I have a gated backyard and the dogs can roam freely inside the house. Dogs are free to sleep on bed. At the client’s home, I will abide by their preferences.

About: I’m a HUGE animal lover. I’ve had dogs since I was about 3 years old. I currently have 3 adorable fur babies; one is almost a year old, one will be 3 in August and the other (my oldest) turns 14 in May. I have had cats, rabbits, hamsters, birds, fish, chickens and even a turtle, so I am prepared to take care of almost any animal you have. You can trust me to watch and care for your pets, as I will treat them as my own. I cannot wait to meet you and your furr babies and hopefully have a continuous relationship for many years to come. For any questions or concerns you may have, please don’t hesitate to reach out! Thank you :) I have a very open schedule. I just recently graduated from San Francisco State University, so I’ve been doing Uber for the past couple of years I live on 1 acre full of grass right outside of Elk Grove in the Vineyard area near Wildhawk Golf Course so there is plenty of room for any animal to roam and play around; especially fetch and frisbee which my dogs LOVE. I directly send photos and videos to your phone via text message rather than the Rover app because I’ve found several times during stays that photos I thought I sent would show as “failed to send,” so I prefer to send messages via iMessage since it shows if the message was delivered almost instantly. That is why my profile shows only 70% of photos sent to owners even though I basically spam your phone with photos and videos of your pet throughout the day. If you prefer me to use the Rover app, please let me know and I will do just that. I also don’t mind if you want to FaceTime with your pet at any time.

About: I frequently care for dogs and cats and truly love spending time with animals. I am patient, attentive, and responsible, and I make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care.

I make sure pets get regular walks, playtime, feeding, and attention every day. I also keep their space clean and spend time giving them affection.

About: I’ve had love for animals my entire life, I love caring for animals of all types. Many of my family members who own animals rely on me to feed, play, and bathe their fur babies. I’m currently searching for a job, so as of now I am available every day of the week including weekends at all times of the day. I do have a fenced backyard with enough space to move around in, I also will take your pet out at night to allow them to use the bathroom if needed.

About: My pet care experience began when I started living with my uncle as a teenager. Back in the Philippines, he would rescue puppies and keep them in the house until he could find them a foster home. After school, I would go straight home and take care of the rescues. I would feed them and keep them hydrated, and then take them out for a walk. I also taught them tricks until they could master it without treats. I strongly believed that training is an essential part of their growth. When I moved here, I adopted Astrid as a puppy and she has been with me for 3 years now. My main skills with pets includes strict attention to time management, understanding their behaviors, and attending to their needs. Other skills include having patience, clear communication with owners, being on time, and being responsible with the duties given. I currently work part-time as a cook in a nursing home. On my days off, I usually stay at home either on my computer or take my dog to play outside. I have a lot of leisure time on these days, and I believe that pet sitting will fulfill these times and keep me busy. In my home, I ensure that my dog sleeps and naps comfortably when tired. I make sure that there’s food for her and water always refilled. I keep my dog active by walking around the neighborhood and going to the playground. I also play the guitar and sing songs to her when there is nothing else to do. When she wants to go outside, I let her run free in the backyard surrounded with fences and have a shaded area for her when it gets too hot. I would also leave the door open in case she wants a colder environment which is inside the house. In a client’s home, I would ensure that their pets are well fed and hydrated. If there is an accident, I would willingly be responsible for that and take care of it. I would make sure that their pets are also being engaged in activities so that they would feel less bored when the parents aren’t home.
