“Kendra is amazing!! From our first meet and greet, she let my 90lb dog give her kisses all over her face and they were comfortable together right off the bat. She gave proactive updates and was great at communicating while we were gone. We will definitely be booking with Kendra again!!”
“Daniel was a great sitter for my house and dogs while I was away. When I got home, one of my dogs didn’t want him to leave so I think they had a wonderful time. Would recommend his services to anyone in need.”
“We are thrilled with the amazing job Frankie did while taking care of our dog, Mochi. From the moment we met Frankie, it was clear that she genuinely cares for animals. Throughout the entire time, she was incredibly caring and attentive to Mochi’s needs. We especially appreciated the regular updates and photos she sent us, which gave us peace of mind knowing that Mochi was in good hands. Mochi absolutely loved her, and we could tell he was happy and comfortable. We highly recommend Frankie to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate puppy sitter. Thank you, Frankie, for your outstanding service!”
About: Pet Care Bio — Jennifer Q., Dinuba, CA Hi there! I'm Jennifer, a lifelong animal lover based right here in Dinuba. If your pet is part of the family, they’ll be treated like part of mine too. Services I offer: I provide dog walking, drop-in visits, house sitting, and overnight boarding in my home — for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. A typical visit includes fresh food/water, potty breaks, playtime, and lots of cuddles, plus daily photo/video updates so you never have to wonder how they’re doing. For walks, I love doing sniffari strolls around local parks and quiet neighborhood routes, always on-leash and at your pup’s pace. For stay-ins, I keep your pet’s exact routine — feeding times, crate training, medications, special diets — so things feel normal while you’re away. I’m comfortable with senior pets, shy rescues, high-energy puppies, multi-pet households, and basic oral medication administration. My home is pet-safe, smoke-free, with a clean, unfenced yard area and plenty of cozy nap spots. I only take 1-2 boarding clients at a time so every pet gets real one-on-one attention, and I never leave boarding pets alone for long stretches. My experience: I’ve been caring for animals for over 10+ years. I grew up with family dogs and cats, and for the last several years friends, neighbors, and coworkers in the Central Valley have trusted me with their pets while traveling. I’ve handled everything from energetic puppies who need structured play, to senior dogs who need slow walks and joint-care routines, to independent cats who just want a clean litter box and a trusted lap. I’m calm, patient, detail-oriented, and I’m big on positive reinforcement — no yelling, no harsh corrections, ever. Availability & time with your pets: I work a flexible, mostly work-from-home schedule, so I’m home for the majority of the day. Boarding dogs are rarely alone for more than 2-3 hours at a time, and I can do mid-day walks/drop-ins during the week and on weekends. I’m available for holidays and last-minute bookings with notice, and I’m happy to do meet-and-greets in Dinuba/Visalia area before any booking so you and your pet feel comfortable. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness come first with me. I’ll send you plenty of updates, follow your instructions to the letter, and leave your home just as I found it. I’d love to meet your best friend! . Availability & time with your pets: I work a flexible, mostly work-from-home schedule, so I’m home for the majority of the day. Boarding dogs are rarely alone for more than 2-3 hours at a time, and I can do mid-day walks/drop-ins during the week and on weekends. I’m available for holidays and last-minute bookings with notice, and I’m happy to do meet-and-greets in Dinuba/Visalia area before any booking so you and your pet feel comfortable. Safety, Trust & Environment Your pet’s safety is always my first priority, whether they’re staying with me or I’m caring for them in your home. In my home — for boarding & daycare: I have a clean, quiet, smoke-free home in Dinuba with a secure, fenced potty area. I only accept 1-2 boarding pets at a time, and never board large and small dogs together unless they’re from the same family. Pets are never left alone for more than 2-3 hours, and never left unsupervised in the yard. Food, treats, and toys are always kept separate, and I follow your feeding and crate/sleep routine exactly to reduce stress. I do a full pet-proofing sweep before every stay — no exposed cords, toxic plants, or small objects within reach. I also send daily photo/video updates, so you always know how they’re doing. In your home — for house sitting & drop-ins: I treat your home and your routine with total respect. I follow your written instructions to the letter for feeding, medications, walks, and house rules. I keep doors/gates double-checked, leashes secured before opening any exterior door, and I never bring other people or pets into your home. You’ll get time-stamped updates with photos at every visit, and I’ll leave your home exactly as I found it — clean, locked, and with a happy, tired pet. For all services: I always do a free meet-and-greet first so we’re all comfortable, I’m happy to provide ID verification, and I have a local emergency vet mapped out with your vet’s info on file before any booking starts. I use positive reinforcement only — no harsh corrections, ever. Trust is everything in pet care, and I take that seriously.
“Lolita was great! She sent frequent updates and took great care of our dog. When we arrived homes, our dog was as happy as ever. We’ll definitely be booking with Lolita in the future!”
About: I don’t just watch pets, I build trust with them. By learning their routines and personalities, I create a calm, familiar experience that keeps them happy, comfortable, and stress-free while you’re away. I plan my weekly schedule around the pets in my care to ensure I can meet their specific needs—whether that’s regular walks, medication timing, feeding routines, or extra attention. I keep a consistent routine so pets feel comfortable and owners can rely on dependable care. At this time, I offer pet care exclusively in my client’s home. While I’m not able to host pets in my own space, I’ve found that staying in their home keeps them more relaxed and comfortable. I stick closely to their usual routine, meals, walks, playtime, and any special care so they feel safe and well cared for while you’re gone.
“Elizabeth was absolutely wonderful dog sitting for my two dogs. Both of my dogs warmed up to her very quickly and She treated my dogs just as they were her own. She sent me updates and let me know how the dogs were doing.”
“Andrew was great! He was very flexible on timing and was able to come early when our schedule changed. He took great care of our pets and left our house spotless. Will book again!”

About: Hey there! My name is Chloe and I am an unabashed animal lover! I’ve always grown up with pets—dogs, cats, fish, reptiles, invertebrates—so I have quite the soft spot for them. At age 16, I started volunteering with the Humane Society, and continued for 2 years before going on to college to earn my degree in biology. I have over three years of professional hands on experience working with dogs of all shapes, sizes, and temperaments! I am currently working towards my training certification, but have several years of experience under my belt using positive and force/fear free methods. My dog, Sprout, and I love training together and even more, showing off the results. Sprout has her BCAT, is working towards her first dock diving title, and trains for multiple other sports. My dedication to caring for animals truly comes through when you meet my dog! I’m currently working part-time which gives me the flexibility and availability perfect to care for your pet! Whether it be an overnight stay, drop-in, or walk, I make sure my clients are well-taken care of and happy when I leave. I try to follow your routine as closely as possible. Dogs find comfort in routine and giving them that extra sense of familiarity can help so much when their parent away. I live in a two-story home with a fenced backyard perfect for any pet! We don’t have many rules here, certainly none about furniture! Your pet will have freedom to roam, or, if you prefer, a safe place to be crated. I am very flexible with how you’d like me to care for your dogs!
“Hattie was great with my three pups. The tiny one escaped through the fence, and Hattie got her back inside and propped up the board for me until I was able to get back and fix the fence. Hattie sent pictures and updates throughout her stay and was very communicative and sweet. I’d highly recommend her to care for your animals!”
“My cats were well fed and very happy when I got home! They warmed up to Lola right away, which says a lot, since they can be a little shy with new people. Lola clearly took wonderful care of them and made them feel comfortable and loved. When I got back, the cats were happily hanging out with her like she was part of the family. I felt completely at ease knowing they were in such good hands. Highly recommend Lola for anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy sitter!”

I’ve been using Ariana for a few months now and she is extremely flexible and very responsive. She always leaves my house in the way that it’s left and goes above and beyond to ensure my dog is comfortable and that my house is left is great condition. Millie loves Ariana!!

As of October 2026, there are 466 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Tokay. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Tokay 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 Tokay 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 Tokay 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.
