“This girl came through big time!! Was available at short notice, was willing to work with my spazy dog and was so nice, sweet and very easy to communicate with. My dog got everything he needed bc of her while I was on an important trip to see family.I’m very grateful!! 💛”

“Suhani took wonderful care of my corgi, Willy, for a few hours, and I couldn't have been happier with the experience. She went above and beyond by baking homemade dog treats for him, taking him on a nice walk, and showering him with plenty of love and attention. When I picked Willy up, he was happy, relaxed, and pleasantly tired—the perfect sign that he had a fun and enriching time. It's clear that Suhani genuinely cares about dogs and treats them like her own. I would absolutely trust her with Willy again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a kind, thoughtful, and reliable pet sitter.”

“Carmen has been a terrific dog walker for our two hounds. They were practically smiling in the photos she’d send us each day. 5 stars and would definitely recommend to anyone in the Davis area looking for assistance with their pets.”

“Sydney was absolutely amazing and reliable. We trusted her to take care of our Moxxi because she has experience with reactive dogs. Also helps that our dog loves her! We appreciate the help, and I will not hesitate to reach out again whenever we're ever working long days. Thank you!”

About: I’ve always loved animals of all kinds. Insects, reptiles, rats, especially cats and dogs. I’ve also volunteered at the ASPCA for a year! I have experience with almost all animals, and I’d love to help take care of yours! I take care of two pets of my own, but currently don’t have a stable job. My days are open! Might as well do what I love and get payed for it. XD I have a calm smaller dog, and a cat who LOVES dogs (she’s strange I know). I live right next to a huge park and walking trail.

“This was my first time ever using Rover or hiring a dog walker and Nora was AMAZING!! She was so wonderful with my senior lab and flexible with her needs. Thank you for taking such great care of her while I was away!”

About: I’m a pet owner myself, so I know how stressful it can be to leave your pet with someone new. I’m patient and really pay attention to each pet’s personality and routine. Whether they’re super playful, shy, cuddly, or prefer their own space, I’ll let them get comfortable with me at their own pace. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, bathing, litter box cleaning, and lots of cuddles if they want them! I’ll also send plenty of photos and updates so you can feel comfortable knowing your pet is happy and well cared for. I’m available anytime and any day during the summer. I have a flexible schedule, so I can spend plenty of time caring for your pets. For morning visits, please let me know in advance! Pet’s safety and emotions are my top priority. In a client’s home, I will follow the pet’s usual routine to keep them comfortable, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special instructions provided by the owner. I clean up after them, make sure they have fresh water, and provide plenty of attention and affection. I’m respectful of the home space and always leave it as I found it. If pets are staying with me, they’ll have a safe, clean, and calm environment where they can relax, play, and feel comfortable.

About: I have hands-on experience caring for animals and have genuine love for every pet. My goal is to make sure all pets feel safe and comfortable. I have two dogs of my own, and I treat every pet I care for or come in contact with like they are part of my family. Pet care is already a regular part of my daily routine as I have two dogs of my own. I am used to feeding, walking, playing with, and caring for pets. I enjoy spending time with animals and would be happy to include pet sitting and walks in my weekly routine. I care for pets by following their owners instructions and keeping them safe, happy, and comfortable. In a clients home, I respect their space and maintain the pets normal routine as much as possible. In my home and/or clients home I will make sure the pets have fresh water, food, exercise, playtime, rest time, and plenty of attention.

About: I have taken care of about 100 individual dogs staying overnight at my home. Their age ranges from 4 months to 16 years. Their weight ranges from 10 to 130 lbs. I make every walk a meditation for me and the dog(s). I work on multiple part-time jobs from home with a flexible schedule throughout the week. I walk dogs four times per day if the weather allows. I fulfill dogs’ needs for physical and mental exercise by walking. I have a fenced yard for potty breaks. I have two kids to keep your pets accompanied. I have the knowledge for pet caring given my extensive experience.

About: I have grown up around animals my whole life! I currently have a senior Bichon/Poodle mix and she is the light of my life. I also have experience with medium sized dogs as I have taken care of my grandparent's Standard Poodle, and my Aunt's Shepherd Mix. I also work with shelter dogs through Front Street Animal Shelter in Sacramento. My skills include: Dog Walking, Dog Sitting, Administering Meditation, Giving Baths, Feeding, and of course, playing! I am a current student at UC Davis, so for the most part my schedule is flexible. When I meet your pets I will give them my full attention, and I will have the most amount of free time over weekends, afternoons and holidays. I will always make sure I'm keeping an eye out for your pup, and I will always have my phone on me so I can send you updates as often as you need in order to feel comfortable. I don't smoke or drink. I will also keep your pet away from other unknown dogs while on walks, as I believe it is best to avoid interactions with dogs whose behavior I am unfamiliar with.
“Esmerilda is an absolutely fantastic person and cares immensely for our dog. She has been our weekly dog walker for a little over 6 months--Our dog is a rescue and was quite difficult in the beginning, but Esmerilda has done a lot to help train and rehabilitate her. She also has done house sitting for us. I'd definitely recommend her to anyone who needs help with their dogs.”

About: People call me the cat whisperer because I am able to work with the shy and spicy kitties. I have volunteered at the animal shelter for 9 years.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - University Avenue
Cici was extremely kind and sweet with my puppy!! Her attention to my instruction and respect for my dog and home were much appreciated. There were many pictures and each walk was documented with great detail which I really appreciated and enjoyed looking at! Will be rebooking again!
Eva is an amazing dog sitter! She absolutely loves and adores my dog, which is the best thing a dog parent can ask for! My dog is so much happier when she comes to see him and I love seeing how happy he is in Eva’s rover reports. I am a helicopter dog mom and Eva has been so attentive and thoughtful, which has been a huge blessing! I cannot recommend her enough!!

I last minute needed a dog walker during my sit due to work obligations, and Quinn responded incredibly fast and came through right away. She relieved so much stress for me and was such a huge help. I’m so grateful, and she was absolutely incredible with Marshall too!
