“Reginay is an amazing person!! She looked after my dog very well and she was able to share a lot of pictures and kept me up to date on how my dog was doing through the whole booking. I would highly recommend her to anyone using this app. She goes above and beyond for our pets!!!”
“Irina was the best dog sitter ever! She provided excellent care for Smokey and loved him as her own. She communicated daily with updates, and he was genuinely sad to go when it came time to pick him up. Irina and her whole family took great care of him and I cannot recommend her enough. We will certainly ask her to watch Smokey the next time we need a sitter.”
“Highly recommended Achara for your fur babies. She took our dog tucker on short notice so that I could go back home for the holidays. Tucker can be very timid when meeting new people, but he adjusted well and they treated him as their own. I was provided with daily updates and pictures of how he was doing. He came home happy and tired from playing so much! Thanks again, Achara!”
“You guys were awesome! The regular updates, photos and videos were greatly appreciated. I can tell our boys were in good hands! They even took them on walks which was not expected but a nice bonus! Super flexible too. Highly recommended”
“Vanessa and her family were absolutely fantastic with our dog! We were kept up to date on daily activities and pictures with how he was doing! He was definitely treated like family and we will definitely be returning the next time we need a sitter!”
“Zariyah was great. Our little guys can be a handful at times and she went above and beyond to make them comfortable. I would absolutely book with her again. 5 star sitter for sure!”
“Wenchi was super sweet and provided me with updates and pictures of Cosmo during his stay with her! He was a very happy wiggly pup when I went to pick him up. Thank you!”
“What a great team Marie & James made! Our senior pet is an active part of our family. We were so worried he wouldn’t understand our being away on a vacation without him. Upon meeting Marie and James, our Cooper seemed comfortable immediately. Their calm and openly friendly attitude was apparent. True to their word, daily pictures and videos were sent with texts. Their experience with older dogs and administering of medications was a relief. Can’t thank or praise them enough. Super nice people. Thank you! Cooper thanks you as well.”
“Ceudi and her wonderful family were great sitters for our senior Boxer (11yr). She was attentive to his medical needs (medicine and care) and stubborn habits. She sent daily updates and always responded quickly to our messages. She lives in a nice neighborhood with a large park nearby. We will definitely be reaching out to her for our future sitting needs.”
“I wasn't sure my dog Max would want to come back home after spending time with Mayra and all the beings in her warm and comforting home. Her kind and gentle nature put us all at ease.”
“I was nervous about leaving my dog for a few days for a work trip, but I appreciate that Tammy was open to doing a pre-meeting to meet my dog and put me at ease. I also appreciate that Tammy kept me updated with pictures everyday while I was traveling. Would book again!”
“Denise was absolutely amazing! This was my first time ever leaving my Zoey with anyone, so I was definitely a little nervous—but she completely put my mind at ease. She also watched my mom’s new pup, Leo, and handled both of them so well. Denise kept in constant communication, sending pictures and videos that truly reassured me the entire time. I could actually see Zoey go from being a little scared at first to happy and comfortable by the time we picked her up, which meant everything to me. I’m so grateful we found her and will absolutely be using her again. Highly recommend! 🐾💛”
“I just got my fur babies back from Anais’s overnight stay. She was so kind and caring to them! They adjusted well, and I was really happy with how she took care of them and kept me in the loop. We’ll definitely recommend her as a sitter again and can confidently recommend her to other fur parents who need pet care.”
“Yifang was able to board Todd on short notice. She was friendly and her place was clean and secured. Todd was relaxed even though it was his first time there, and he had a great stay at her home. Yifang kept me updated with pictures and messages! Five stars for her.”
“My dog Oreo had a great two weeks with Marilee and Joe. Oreo had loads of fun playing and wrestling with their dog Zuko who is a great role model for my 3 year old pup. The entire family welcomed and played with Oreo. He even got to go visit the river to swim! 😊 🐕 💗 💦 Marilee was great with communication and sent photos of my happy pup! Lol! He had such a great time I was sort of worried that Oreo would be in withdrawal when we got home without all of their company and attention! We are planning on having Oreo visit again when we go out of town.”
“Rekha and her husband were amazing with my Tyson. Tyson had an extended stay with Rekha. She sent me regular updates and pics of Tyson throughout his stay. Will definitely book again !”
“I was looking for a last minute dog sitter and Aya was wonderful!! She communicated quickly and answered all my questions and all her information assured me that my dog would be taken care of. And the experience was amazing- my dog Maggie had such a great time with her two beautiful golden retrievers. I will definitely be using Aya again!”
“Wendy made my boys and me comfortable during their stay with her. I never had any concerns and she sent me a pic and vid during their stay. They looked super comfortable and even made a new friend in her own fur baby! Wonton is tuckered out from playing! Thank you again Wendy!”

“Victoria seems to be very detail oriented and dedicated to the animals she takes care of. She didn’t mind that 2 of my cats are very timid “ghost” cats even though I know the job would be more fun with 3 cats to play with. Very quick with texts and informative with her answers. I will definitely hire her again.”
“Justin cared for my tortoise, cat and plants. He executed everything perfectly, was flexible, asked thoughtful questions and communicated effectively. Will book again!”
“You can tell Reginay loves animals. She is very patient and works with your pet to make sure they are comfortable. Very communicative and will send pictures and videos throughout the day. Toni loves his stays there. 🥰”
“Awesome! V&M are easy going, friendly professionals and all went perfectly. Mutts super happy, house in great shape, excellent pics. Made my partially stressful trip way easier. I'm so happy to find these guys and already planning the next booking!”
“Liz is a gem! We would 10/10 recommend her. We were fortunate to find her to care for our two elder cats at a time when they needed extra special attention. One had just started injections, and the other antibiotics. Liz was exceptionally attentive, caring, detail oriented, and meticulous in learning their needs and routine. The cats immediately took a liking to her gentle and positive energy, even in a time of great stress for them - and they were so happy to be near her almost immediately. She provides thoughtful communication and pictures during her visits, and put our anxiety at ease so we could enjoy our time away knowing our fur kids were in such good hands. We are grateful to her for being our sitter and know you will be too.”
“My husband and I enjoy taking long weekends get-a-ways and trips, just like everyone else. However, over the past year, we've encountered challenges finding trustworthy pet sitters. Fortunately, a friend recommended Rover. As I explored Rover, several profiles caught my attention, but Anna's profile shone brightly. With her exceptional following and devoted clientele base, I was eager to learn more. I booked Ana to care for my two indoor cats and our semi-indoor rescue living in the garage for a few days. Not only did I request her exceptional pet care services, but I also asked her to tend to my garden, ensuring my plants wouldn't wither while we were away on vacation. The moment I met Ana, I was struck by her radiant warmth. Her kindness, respect, and positivity illuminated the entire experience, and her insightful tips put my mind at ease. She demonstrated genuine interest in my cats' unique personalities, quirines, and preferences, which instantly reassured me. Having returned from our vacation, I'm overjoyed to report that Ana has surpassed my expectations in every way. Her communication skills are outstanding, and she went above and beyond every request. The updates on my cats, accompanied by pictures and a heartwarming video of one cat purring contentedly in her lap, left me feeling grateful. I couldn't have entrusted my beloved pets to a more exceptional caregiver. Ana has earned a permanent place in our lives as our go-to pet sitter, and I'm honored to know such a compassionate and remarkable individual. Her kindness, dedication, and love for animals make her truly special. I'm privileged to have her care for my cherished fur-babies and to know such a remarkable woman. Thank you, Ana.”
About: Caring for animals has always been a passion of mine. Since I was 10 years old, I’ve been rescuing and caring for both cats and dogs, as well as helping friends, family, and neighbors with their pets whenever they were away. I have experience with pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities—from playful puppies and kittens to senior pets who need extra patience and care. I make it a priority to keep pets on their normal routine, including feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime, litter box cleaning, and giving them plenty of love and attention. I understand that every pet is unique, so I take the time to learn their individual needs and treat every animal as if they were my own. My goal is to make both you and your pet feel comfortable, safe, and confident while you’re away.
About: Hello! I have had dogs since I was 6 years old and know from experience they are amazing and truly best fur friends! I have over 25 years of experience taking care of dogs of my own, family and friends fur babies. I take them to the park to run and play. I ensure they have plenty of water and correct amount of food. I love playing, walking and enjoy their company! I look forward to taking care of your loved ones with lots of love and ensure they have fun! I work full time and have a hybrid schedule. I'm excited and can't wait to care for your fur babies! I love taking walks and playing with all types of dogs big and small! Most importantly they will get excellent care and feel comfortable. I give compassionate and loving care while paying attention to all details to ensure proper care. I will care for your house and treat it with the utmost respect.
“Very kind and communicative! Stayed with our pups in a hotel while we went to a family wedding. Felt very confident leaving our semi anxious dogs in her care. Highly recommend!”
“I can’t say enough wonderful things about the care our dogs received while we were away! From the very start, it was clear that Alayna truly loves animals and understands how to connect with them on an individual level. One of our dogs—a senior corgi-beagle mix—is very slow to warm up to new people and requires a lot of patience, gentleness, and understanding. Alayna gave him just that, never rushing him and always respecting his boundaries, which earned her trust in a way that truly warmed my heart. Throughout our trip, we received thoughtful updates and photos that clearly showed how comfortable and well-cared-for all our fur babies were. It brought such peace of mind knowing they were not only being looked after, but loved. Alayna went above and beyond with the little things—sticking to their routines, paying attention to their moods, and even picking up on quirks that only someone who truly cares would notice. We came home to happy, relaxed pups—and that says everything. I’m so grateful to have found someone who cares for our dogs as if they were her own. We’ll absolutely be booking with Alayna again. If you’re looking for someone who brings empathy, attentiveness, and genuine love to pet care, look no further.”
“Niiyah was so lovely and was happy to help care for my cats even though it was last-minute and they have some chronic illnesses that require medications twice a day and meals 3 times a day. Thank you so much!”
About: With six years of hands-on professional experience, growing up with cats and a lifelong love for cats, I don't just see this as a job—it's a genuine passion! Since I don’t have a cat of my own right now, I pour all that care and enthusiasm into yours, ensuring they receive abundant love and dedicated attention while you're away. My experience extends from playful kittens to serene seniors. I provide all the essentials: meticulous litter box cleaning, precise feeding, fresh water, and dedicated playtime that honors their unique personality—whether they're a spirited toy-chaser or a cozy lap-cat, I’ve got them covered! Nothing brings me more joy than ensuring your companion feels safe, stimulated, and utterly cherished while giving you complete peace of mind, so reach out!😊💕🐈🐈⬛

About: I grew up with large dogs, rodents, and have owned many scaly friends. I befriend every stray cat I meet and I stop to help whenever I see a dog that's escaped their home and its safe to do so. I also used to ride horses when I lived in the country. Currently I take care of my thumbnail dart frogs and wish for more animal friends. I am currently unemployed but work on developing my own video game at home. When I am employed my jobs are exclusively remote. I like to go on an evening walk and sometimes I will be out of the house for a few hours at a time. Occasionally I might be out for the night but its generally about once a week or less. My home has a fenced yard, an atrium, 3 bedrooms and 2 living spaces. I also have an alarm system that is armed at night. I am happy to let dogs out in the yard and take them on walks. At my clients home I am happy to sit with your pets to keep them company and read a comic book, draw on my tablet, or play a game on my Switch.
“Irina is a lifesaver! I reached out at the last minute the night before, and she responded immediately, accommodating our needs. I have two small senior dogs, and she was very attentive to them. She sent me videos and photos of them throughout the entire sitting. I felt very relieved knowing my babies were safe and at peace. We will definitely hire Irina again for all our future sitting needs.”
“Hands down one of the best dogsitters I've found. I have an extremely high energetic Dobie and Briana somehow made it seem easy. She sent pictures throughout his daycare stay and was very accommodating for last minute scheduling changes. If I could give a higher rating I would. Thank you Briana!”
“Sunshine and Shannon are wonderful and were so kind to me and my pup! They send multiple updates throughout the day and are very understanding of your dogs needs. Thank you both for looking after Ollie!”

About: We are a mother, daughter duo! You may meet myself YingYing or Annie, my daughter. However, we provide the same adequate care! Animal sitting has been a big thing of ours since we can remember and now that we have adopted Bingo, it has pushed us to do this full-time. We have had Bingo for about 3 years with no issues and no emergency pet visits. She is healthy and lively albeit a little lazy. You can say she is at the top of our food chain in our household. We live in an area where there are trails right next to our house for walks and the park is a block away. We also have a minivan that can take the doggies to the park if they have mobility issues. We are equipped in handling pushy dogs when they are walking and can control their behaviors. Additionally, we can read some body cues from dogs. Please message or email us before booking so we are aware of your dog’s situation and are able to care for them to the full extent. I am currently a stay at home mom with kids aged 10 and 14 so I can accept bookings whenever is necessary. I intend to pet sit as a full time job with opening on the weekends as well. Bingo is quite calm and careless. She is trained to go into a bedroom on command and we have multiple helping hands to situate her and your own fur baby.
About: I had a beagle from age 6 to 22. From 22 to 36 I had a Maine Coon. I currently have 2 cute ginger cats and a fat grey and white cat. Everyone was a rescue! I own a small business and work from home. I can get to your home in the Elk Grove area very easily and quickly to visit with your critters. We prepare fresh meals for our cats. We haver cat backpacks and crates to transport them around. They like to visit outside and pretend they are still wild. One likes to explore. The other two are afraid of their shadows.

About: Hi! My name is Liz. I recently re-downloaded Rover after being away for a few years, and I’m excited to start pet sitting again through Rover. I’m a college graduate with years of experience caring for pets through my mom’s Rover account, along with ongoing cat sitting jobs and trusted repeat clients. I’m known for being a great communicator, dependable, and attentive to both pets and owners. I offer house sitting, drop-ins, walks, overnight care, and can also help with light household tasks like bringing in mail/packages, watering plants, pulling trash cans in or out, and keeping your home tidy while you’re away. I especially love caring for senior pets and pets who do best staying in the comfort of their own home. I understand every animal has different needs, personalities, and routines, and I always try to make them feel safe and comfortable while you’re gone. For overnight stays, my fiancé may occasionally accompany me for safety and comfort purposes, but your pet’s care and respect for your home always come first. I’m happy to communicate openly beforehand so everyone feels comfortable and confident. Feel free to message me anytime with questions. I respond quickly and would love to see if we’re a good fit for you and your pets! Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine because I currently have a very flexible schedule during the week. Outside of pet sitting, I spend my time applying to jobs in clinical research, running errands, doing chores, and meeting with friends, which gives me plenty of availability and flexibility for drop-ins, walks, overnight stays, and last-minute bookings. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, so caring for pets never feels like a chore to me. I’m very attentive with feeding schedules, playtime, walks, litter box cleaning, medications if needed, and making sure pets feel comfortable and cared for while their owners are away. At this time, I only offer care in my client’s home because I have an anxious 9-year-old tabby cat at home, and I want to keep his environment calm and stress-free. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always try to maintain their normal routine so they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. For overnight stays, I usually stay in the guest room or designated area of the home, and many pets enjoy sleeping nearby or spending time with me throughout the day. I’m very respectful of your home and prioritize cleanliness, safety, and communication. I make sure doors are securely locked, pets are supervised carefully, and feeding, walks, litter box cleaning, playtime, and potty breaks are handled consistently. I also pay close attention to your pet’s behavior and comfort level to help reduce stress and keep them happy during your absence. My goal is always to create a calm, trustworthy, and loving environment where both you and your pets feel comfortable and cared for.

“Reginay is an amazing person!! She looked after my dog very well and she was able to share a lot of pictures and kept me up to date on how my dog was doing through the whole booking. I would highly recommend her to anyone using this app. She goes above and beyond for our pets!!!”
“Highly recommended Achara for your fur babies. She took our dog tucker on short notice so that I could go back home for the holidays. Tucker can be very timid when meeting new people, but he adjusted well and they treated him as their own. I was provided with daily updates and pictures of how he was doing. He came home happy and tired from playing so much! Thanks again, Achara!”
“You guys were awesome! The regular updates, photos and videos were greatly appreciated. I can tell our boys were in good hands! They even took them on walks which was not expected but a nice bonus! Super flexible too. Highly recommended”
“Vanessa and her family were absolutely fantastic with our dog! We were kept up to date on daily activities and pictures with how he was doing! He was definitely treated like family and we will definitely be returning the next time we need a sitter!”
“Zariyah was great. Our little guys can be a handful at times and she went above and beyond to make them comfortable. I would absolutely book with her again. 5 star sitter for sure!”
“What a great team Marie & James made! Our senior pet is an active part of our family. We were so worried he wouldn’t understand our being away on a vacation without him. Upon meeting Marie and James, our Cooper seemed comfortable immediately. Their calm and openly friendly attitude was apparent. True to their word, daily pictures and videos were sent with texts. Their experience with older dogs and administering of medications was a relief. Can’t thank or praise them enough. Super nice people. Thank you! Cooper thanks you as well.”
“Ceudi and her wonderful family were great sitters for our senior Boxer (11yr). She was attentive to his medical needs (medicine and care) and stubborn habits. She sent daily updates and always responded quickly to our messages. She lives in a nice neighborhood with a large park nearby. We will definitely be reaching out to her for our future sitting needs.”
“I was nervous about leaving my dog for a few days for a work trip, but I appreciate that Tammy was open to doing a pre-meeting to meet my dog and put me at ease. I also appreciate that Tammy kept me updated with pictures everyday while I was traveling. Would book again!”
“I just got my fur babies back from Anais’s overnight stay. She was so kind and caring to them! They adjusted well, and I was really happy with how she took care of them and kept me in the loop. We’ll definitely recommend her as a sitter again and can confidently recommend her to other fur parents who need pet care.”
“My dog Oreo had a great two weeks with Marilee and Joe. Oreo had loads of fun playing and wrestling with their dog Zuko who is a great role model for my 3 year old pup. The entire family welcomed and played with Oreo. He even got to go visit the river to swim! 😊 🐕 💗 💦 Marilee was great with communication and sent photos of my happy pup! Lol! He had such a great time I was sort of worried that Oreo would be in withdrawal when we got home without all of their company and attention! We are planning on having Oreo visit again when we go out of town.”
“Rekha and her husband were amazing with my Tyson. Tyson had an extended stay with Rekha. She sent me regular updates and pics of Tyson throughout his stay. Will definitely book again !”
“I was looking for a last minute dog sitter and Aya was wonderful!! She communicated quickly and answered all my questions and all her information assured me that my dog would be taken care of. And the experience was amazing- my dog Maggie had such a great time with her two beautiful golden retrievers. I will definitely be using Aya again!”
“We absolutely loved Briana! She sent us daily updates, sometimes even more than once a day. Our pups looked so happy and very cared for! We definitely recommend her and will be using her again!!!”
“Annie and her family were so welcoming to my puppy. He can be a handful but played great with her dog too. Annie provided so much great communication and updates throughout the day. I felt so comfortable knowing he was taken care of. I’m sure he can’t wait for another visit soon.”
“We hit the jackpot with Brandee! She is extremely warm and generous, and it is very obvious that she loves dogs very much! Our girls had a wonderful time, and they ran around the backyard so much that they were all tuckered out when they got home. We will use her again without hesitation.”
“Our dogs had an amazing stay with this daughter and mom duo. They gave us daily updates and we can tell they loved our dogs like their own. They had a nice yard and space for the dogs to go out and play in! Even with the yard space they still took them on walks and played ball with them. We will definitely book with them again in the future!”
“Doh is excellent with the pups. She’s patient and kind and provided many pics and updates throughout my vacation. My dog seemed to really like her and my family did as well! Highly recommend!”
“We were hesitant because it was our first time using Rover and boarding our puppy. However, before and during the stay, Alexandra was very responsive and provided photos of our little one the day of and the next day. She even provided tips and advice. Our dog seemed happy when we got her back. Definitely recommend!”
