“We were very pleased with Nora. She took excellent care of our two pups and sent lots of photos to keep us up to date on how they were doing. She stayed in our home and left it spotless. We will definitely use her again in the future.”

“Chrissy was an awesome house sitter for our energetic, 1-year-old golden/husky mix! She gave regular updates and kept him entertained. Would definitely book again and recommend!”

“Alyssa is great. I can always trust her to take care of my senior chihuahua. If you’re looking for someone reliable and trustworthy with your special doggos, I highly recommend her”

About: My entire life, my family has had at least two dogs, so I'm very well versed and familiar with the care and attention that a variety of different dog breeds need to get. In addition, I have two kittens of my own, who are extremely well cared for. Animals are my passion in life, and caring for them comes naturally to me. I can guarantee your fur babies will get all of the love, attention, and care in the world while I'm watching them. I'm a student and work part-time, so I'm busy but have a schedule that easily allows me to check in on your pets as-needed! I can check in frequently, spend hours with your pets, and sleep over if preferred. How I care for your pets depends on your personal instructions, boundaries, and expectations, and the specific needs of your pet, if applicable. I always closely follow all instructions and requests that I receive, so that I can best make your pet(s) comfortable and within their usual routines, and to best respect your home.
About: I’ve previously worked at Dogtopia during summer of 2023 before heading off to college in Davis. I worked over the summer of 2026 as a full time dog walker and sitter with a small business called BowWowMeow in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. I have two dogs of my own back home and feel like adding taking care of others’ pets would make my life feel whole here in Davis like it does back home. I make sure they feel loved and paid attention to. No matter if I’m walking, feeding, or pet sitting, I love building a relationship with the pet to make sure they feel cared for.
“Kelly is so amazing! She is very communicative and sent us lots of pictures and updates on our girls which was so nice when traveling. Both our dogs absolutely adore her and from the updates could tell they were very comfortable with her! She truly goes above and beyond! We’ll definitely have Kelly come watch our girls again in the future!”

“Annika took great care or our pets and also our house for several days while we were away. She was very punctual, followed instructions, and easy to communicate with. She was very good about sending updates and photos and everything looked perfect when we got back. I would highly recommend her.”
“We LOVED having Alex as Ginger’s sitter. Alex took the time to learn about Ginger’s habits & needs (food, separation anxiety). They have daily updates and left our house spotless. Thanks so much, Alex!”
About: I’ve taken care of many pets from senior animals on their deathbeds to infants needing bottle feeding, animals with behavior issues, and animals needing medical care. I am familiar with training animals and am not afraid of a challenge. I do not currently have any obligations, so my schedule is completely open and I am available to care for your pets at any time. I try to create a safe and welcoming environment for the animals, making them feel at home while making sure they are safe and cared for.

“She was so attentive, kind, and helpful! She checked in many times and provided great photos and updates. My cat really liked her and felt comfortable with her! She did a great job not only caring for my cat but also going above and beyond doing tasks I didn’t ask her to do like cleaning my apartment, which was so thoughtful! She even gave her a little present at the end :) Would definitely recommend!”

“Mehma spent the whole day with Lucy and took good care of her. She played with her a lot and hung out with her during the day until I came back. Lucy looked happy and pleased under her care!”

“Devi was great. We’ve already booked with her again! Devi was very responsive when booking. We were impressed by how professional she was when she came over for a meet-and-greet. Most importantly, she handled our easily overexcited, enormous dog perfectly—she was calm, let him set the pace, and he quickly relaxed with her. Devi sent updates and pics, so we were able to enjoy our weekend without worries.”
“Ally came to my house to take care of my 12-week-old puppy while I was attending a wedding. She has visited with my puppy before, and when Ally walked into the house, my puppy was overjoyed to see her! Ally is highly attuned to my dog's needs. She plays games, cuddles, feeds, and even trains my puppy. While she was with my puppy, she sent me photos and updates, which were such a comfort! My house was clean and organized when I came home almost nine hours later, and my puppy was happy and relaxed. Ally is a rare gem!”

About: I am experienced with caring for all kinds of dogs. I have access to many dog parks and walk them up to 5 times a day. I adapt to the pet’s needs to give them the best care. I have a golden retriever (6 mo.) and a labradoodle (10 yrs). My golden (Sunny) is super friendly and loves to make friends! I ensure that your pet’s needs are met and they have the highest form of care. I’m a junior at the University of California, Davis. I have a flexible schedule with my course work that allows me to be fully engaged with the dogs in my care. I live in a gated community so pets can’t easily get out. I take my puppy on long walks at the Davis Arboretum and have a dog park where I live which ensures they are getting their exercise and playtime. My apartment is clean for health safety. If I am staying at the owner’s home, I will apply the owner’s directions.
About: I am currently a student at the UC Davis School of Veterinary Medicine to become a vet! I have had pets at home since elementary school including dogs, cats, and chickens. At home I play an integral role caring for each of my pets. My love for animals extends outside of the house as I look to work with animals professionally as a veterinarian. I have 8 years of experience volunteering and working at veterinary clinics. Through my work, I have learned to handle all kinds of breeds and temperaments. I am so excited to work with your pets and provide incredible service. Shoot me a message with any questions or requests and I will be sure to respond day-of. I am currently in my second year of vet school and will have openings most days at various times to care for all your dog's and/or cat's needs before, after, and between classes. I have previous experience as a veterinary assistant, which consisted of caring for pets, so this will just be an extension of the same care I provided in the animal hospital and the animals I care for in vet school. I am very comfortable tending to all the needs of your pets including walking, feeding, playing with, cleaning up after, and giving medications. I am confident in handling dogs and cats and will ensure their safety around other animals.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Sycamore South
Marissa watched our two dogs and 8 frogs for our wedding weekend. This was our first time leaving them with a stranger, so we were a little nervous. The dogs can be a little ornery, one of them takes daily meds, and not many people have experience with frogs. We set up a meet and greet and several day time visits leading up to the weekend so everyone could get to know each other. By the time we left them, I was confident Marissa could handle both the dogs and the frogs. Everything went smoothly!

Ly was wonderful with Mochi! 🤍 She took such great care of him, accommodated his schedule, and even went the extra mile to introduce a new game to play with him. We really appreciate all the love, attention, and care she gave him. Mochi seemed happy to spend time with her, which gave us so much peace of mind. Highly recommend Ly to anyone looking for someone who will treat their pet with genuine love and care!

Xitlalli and her boyfriend were absolute gems and easily among the best pet sitters we’ve ever had. After a terrible experience with a previous sitter that left us genuinely anxious about leaving our dog again, we were pretty nervous. We had also recently lost our second dog to cancer, so leaving our other dog in someone else’s care for over a week was especially hard for us. Thankfully, our meet and greet with Xitlalli and her boyfriend went incredibly well, and we immediately felt comfortable with them. They bonded with him right away and treated him like he was their own. Throughout our trip, they went above and beyond, walking him twice a day, every day, keeping him on his normal routine, and giving him so much love and attention. Their daily updates and photos of our sweet boy gave us so much peace of mind and made being away from him much easier. What meant the most to us though was how thoughtful they were beyond just caring for our dog. When we came home, they had left us flowers and the sweetest card. After everything we had recently been through, that gesture honestly meant so much to us. It really showed us that they care about the people behind the pets they look after too, and that’s something we’ll never forget. They also took wonderful care of our home and left everything spotless. Xitlalli and her boyfriend are kind, reliable, communicative, and genuinely caring people who clearly love animals. We feel incredibly lucky to have found them and will absolutely book with them again. We know we can completely trust them with both our dog and our home. We couldn’t have asked for better sitters and would recommend them without hesitation!

Jordan was wonderful! He helped us at the last minute and took care of our two Labs at our home. He followed directions and kept our home clean. One of our Labs is a challenge sometimes but Jordan took the time to figure him out and they became friends! Thank you Jordan!
Kelly was so fantastic with our dog all weekend. She made sure our little 60 lb girl went on fun news adventures while also getting needed downtime at home, and had excellent communication throughout. Our dog gets a little anxious under new circumstances but seemed right at home with Kelly.

Faith took car of my pups for a week. One is an older lady on a kidney diet with meds. Another still had the young pup energy. Faith did a great job with the feeding and meds. Our older dog can be more difficult to get to eat. Faith also housesat and helped with some house plants. At the meet and greet, she was thorough with her questions, which I appreciated because I did not think of everything at the time. I would definitely hire her again to watch my dogs or housesit.

Esmerilda was great. I have a senior cat that requires an asthma inhaler twice a day and a dog with an injury that requires management and medication and she took great care of them both. She sent frequent photos throughout the day of them both. She was well equipped to ensure the medication protocol was followed for both pets! I would recommend her and book her again :)

Jenna did an excellent job caring for our Great Pyr and an elderly cat with special needs while we were away. She even dealt with an escaped chicken and an ant problem and the house was left better than she found it. We appreciated how communicative she was and felt like our animals were well taken care of.

Jenny is an outstanding pet sitter! She housesat and watched our dog for a week and she made it so easy for us to relax knowing she holding down the fort at home. She sent us detailed daily messages and photos of our pup and she seemed to get our reactive dog and what she needed right away. She took her on nice long walks and we felt confident in her ability to handle the pulling and barking that usually ensues. Jenny was also so great about remembering every little detail about caring for the house and confirmed with us when packages were brought it, garbage cans taken out to the street, etc. Most of all, she seemed to really gain the trust of our dog and we could see from the pictures and videos that she sent that our dog not only became comfortable with Jenny, she seemed to be having fun, looking happy and cuddling up with her new bud. We really could not have asked for a better sitter and would highly recommend Jenny to anyone looking for a trustworthy, highly competent, communicative sitter.

Rachel's open communication was great. She was upfront with her schedule. There was a misunderstanding due to a booking error in my part, but she remained open to adjusting the booking and doing a meet and greet. I have one senior dog that requires medication and kidney diet. Rachel was able to keep meds and feeding up for us during a trip.
