About: I have taken care of pets basically my entire life, of course I have had to learn and improve my skills from when I was younger. My family members have many pets which they rely on me to take care of when they are unable to. I am also going to school for a degree in biological sciences in hopes to find a career as a vet tech or anything which will allow me to work closely with animals. :) I am a 4th year biological science major at UC Merced. I hope to pursue a career which will allow me to work with animals closely while also spending time outdoors. I also am very interested in learning about animal husbandry and pet care. I love taking walks in the mornings and evenings, perfect for when dogs need to go potty! My services are mostly in clients’ homes because I have two cats and a small house which will not be big enough for larger animals like dogs. The way I care for pets in clients’ homes will be up to the client themselves as every pet parent has different ground rules and boundaries for their fur babies. I will do the basics like feeding and playing but will refrain from most other things unless requested to avoid stepping over boundaries, especially in other people’s homes.
“She was awesome! Highly recommend her understood all directions I have a 3 week old kitten .She had to hand feed him. Very loving towards him will absolutely have her come and kittensit again.♥️her little doggy too”

“Linsey did an amazing job! I just got a puppy and had to leave the home for a day and was very concerned about the pup being stressed. Linsey came and sat the pup at my home so the pup would be comfortable- but I was still worried. I got updates during the day, and when I got home Linsey was my dogs new best friend! She didn’t want her to leave! Excellent care, very nice, and will definitely be using her going forward. I highly recommend Linsey :)”
“Mikayla was great with Bubba. She was on time. She sent us lots of photos with updates. Our house was just as clean when she left as when she arrived. We came home to a happy dog. It’s obvious she is good with animals. Bubba loved her.”

“Amanda was prompt with her responses and kept us up to date on all the happenings while house sitting with our 2 dogs and 3 cats so that we could go away for the weekend without worrying about them. House was in good order when we returned and pups were chill and content. Much appreciated!”

About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of pets since I was 15! I’ve watched guineas, chinchillas, dogs, cats - I’d love to meet yours! :) I’m available to watch pets at all hours of the day - I live on a wide property with lots of room for running! :) With any pet I make sure they get lots of attention, patience and outside time. Unless requested otherwise, I feed twice a day kibble&wetfood :)

We have a Great Dane Mastiff and an 14yo boxer who can be very needy in their own ways. She sent updates of potty breaks, meals and asked all the important questions. We will definitely request her again. Thank you for taking care of our babies!”
About: I absolutely adore making new pet-friends! I’ve always loved dogs and cats, and all animals really.. unfortunately I can’t have my own pets where I live, but that just means I have all the time to make new besties with yours! I prefer to watch your dog(s) and/or cat(s), or any pet for that matter, at your house, because I feel pets are more comfortable at home in their normal surroundings. I've been doing this for friends, coworkers, and word-of-mouth clients primarily for many years now, and I am known to get booked back to back for several months at a time. Most of my clients are in Los Angeles, though I am trying to garner more business in the IE since I recently moved to Rancho Cucamonga. I’ve watched dogs of all ages and sizes, cats of all levels of friendliness, fish, birds, lizards, even a pack of neighborhood stray cats (they were fixed and released back to the community they were found in). I love animals, always have, and I work from home so I am very flexible as far as availability. I just bring my work laptop wherever I go, and work from anywhere. I’ll keep your place safe and tidy while your gone, as well as your pets. I gather mail, water plants, take out/bring in garbage bins… I treat your home as though it belongs to a celebrity ☺️ I keep my rates fairly low because honestly, it’s fun for me. I also keep pet parents updated with photos and periodic status updates. Thanks for your consideration, can’t wait to hear from you! Shayla I work from home and if you book me, I’ll be working from your home, so it is very easy for me to tend to your pets at anytime, day or night. I cannot bring pets to my apartment, but I will keep your pet’s daily routine as close to normal as possible. I find this alleviates extra stress. I also stay overnight at your home, and i bring my own linens and towels and things, so that’s one less thing to worry about upon your return.
“Nichole was absolutely perfect. She took great care of my dog Kaya and left our house in pristine condition, which is always appreciated. She was very communicative and I was definitely put at ease while on our camping trip about any concerns over Kaya. Highly recommended. I will be contacting Nichole in the future :)”
“It was our first time leaving Luna (our rescue who we believe was previously traumatized) so we were a little anxious. We couldn't have asked for better. Norma was amazing. She stayed in our home to look after Luna and looked after both as if they were her own. The house looked amazing and Luna was calm and relaxed, clearly well looked after. Norma sent us regular updates and pictures which were much appreciated. We would highly recommend Norma if you are looking for someone who is conscientious with a genuine love of animals. Thanks Norma x”
“Ian did a great job watching 4 of my pets! We hired him to look after our Senior Great Dane, 2 mini Winnie’s and our tortoise for 2 weeks! He did a great job communicating any issues and how the pets were doing throughout the 2 weeks. We will definitely be hiring Ian for all our future needs!”
About: 小红书: CAT Tree猫猫寄养舍 Instagram: cattree_lovecats Welcome to Cartree Family Cat Boarding! 1. I only onboard cats and do not have any dogs. 2. I built individual rooms with toys, cat tree, litter box for each onboarding cat. 3. I provide customized and individualized care for each onboarding cat. 4. Each cat will live in an assigned room to avoid cat fights for the best safety. 5. I will take pictures of each cat and actively share any update with the owners. 6. Owners only need to bring their cat’s food — we provide everything else (litter, litter box, bowls, toys, and basic cat supplies). In a new environment, it’s best for cats to keep eating what they’re used to. CAT Tree Daily Care Routine • Morning (around 8:00 AM): We start the day by feeding the cats and doing a quick health and wellness check. We lightly clean the rooms, offer some playtime or cuddles for socialization, and tidy up litter boxes or pet areas as needed. Each room also receives a full deep cleaning and disinfection once a week. • Midday: We provide a second feeding, check in on each cat, engage them with enrichment activities to keep them mentally and physically stimulated, and send updates — including photos, videos, and a brief report — to the owner. • Evening: We feed the cats a third time and do a final clean-up to ensure all spaces are clean, cozy, and ready for a peaceful night. I’ve specially built 4 individual small rooms and reserved 2 bedroom to care for the cats in my care. My goal is to create a personalized space for each cat, providing a safe and comfortable boarding environment with individualized attention, ensuring that every cat enjoys unique love and tranquility.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Spring Valley Lake walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Spring Valley Lake maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
<b>Tip:</b> Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Spring Valley Lake choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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.
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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
