“Irina is wonderful! She provides daily updates and videos of Ziggy. She also notifies me if she observes anything significant about my dog, and gives suggestions. I appreciate that. Thank you for caring for Ziggy.”
“I’ve never had a better experience leaving my dog with someone like I did with Blaze! Mia barely wanted to come home at the end of the trip and truly seemed like she was at home with Blaze 10/10 would recommend, honestly won’t ever leave my dog with anyone else as long as Blaze is around thank you so much!!”
“We boarded our two dogs for the first time with Carrie and her family for an overnight stay. My husband and I could tell right away that they were going to be in great hands. I appreciated the quick responses and the update on how they were doing. We would definitely utilize this amazing family again and feel safe and reassured doing so. Sincerely, The Navarrete Family”
“I was out of town for about a month and Reginay was amazing taking care of my Aussie "Nac. She keeps me updated every day with photos and videos. Nac came home in great condition after more than 3 weeks of boarding. Highly recommended!”
“This is my second time using Sabrina and will continue to use her going forward! Sabrina sends regular updates and is very responsive. My Mochi girl always comes home happy and I know she is always well taken care of with Sabrina.”
“Naomi was amazing and has a huge heart for pups. She had our Benny for 2 nights and was great with communicating and updating us with photos and video of his time there. Highly Recommended! We will be using her for all our vacations.”
“Shannon is amazing. It was our first time using Rover and she was the best person to experience this service. We love it. From getting updates (photos videos and messages) to answering all questions we had the whole time. Excellent service. Highly recommend Shannon, and we look forward having our Luna stay with Shannon and her family in the future. Thanks for everything.”
“George was very happy in Amy&Justin care. We received frequent and positive updates about his stay. There were very flexible and easy to communicate with us. We are very satisfied and would recommend!”
“Catherine is an amazing sitter. Her home is clean and peaceful and my dog had a lovely time there. You can tell she loves dogs and my dog loves her and her husband, even when my husband came to pick him up he went to lie next to Ernie! We plan to use her regularly when we need her service should her schedule allow. Thanks for watching him on short notice!”
“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.”
“Valerie was amazing with Whiskey! She took such great care of him and kept us updated with photos and videos all weekend, which really put us at ease. It was clear Whiskey was happy, well cared for, and enjoying his time with her. She took him on walks and gave him lots of love and attention. We’re so grateful to have found someone so caring and reliable. We’ll definitely be booking with Valerie again!”
“Cody the senior Labrador is well cared for by Achara and her family. When I pick him up from a stay at her house, he is always very relaxed and calm. There is this satisfied sense about him. I highly recommend Achara.”

“Briana was great! She sent pics of my Chewy and Oliver while we were gone and was quick to reply to any messages I sent. They were super calm and happy when I picked them up. Would book again!”
“Kenia was awesome with Brownie. She sent updates throughout the entire time and he seemed happy when picking him up although it was dark and he couldn't really see me. He was protective of Kenia which goes to show what kind of bond they developed in such a short time frame. I would recommend and use Kenia again.”

“Had to leave our cats for about a week. Just asked for a daily check-in and feeding. Also did ask for her to try to give our little girl Mei a daily pill. We figured Mei would disappear and give her no chance. But she got her her medicine every day except for the first day. Impressive. Also cleaned up some cat sick. Very happy. And cats seemed very happy.”

“Megan did great with my cats. They’re usually a little shy with new people but looks like they were comfortable with her right away. If the cats are happy and content then I’m happy, will book Megan again!”
“Terrell is a very warm and sweet young lady who I instantly knew would take care of my Lily and Kirby as if they were her own. Lily, who is a Chihuahua mix, has a little social anxiety and does not approach people easily. You usually have to be around her a lot before you can even pick her up. Lily took to Terrell quickly, which I had not seen her do with anyone before, so I knew we were in good hands. It is obvious how much Terrell loves dogs. By the end of our first meeting to talk about feeding/potty schedule/house key, etc., I was so at ease and happy to know I'd met a reliable person to help me with in-home dog sitting. I received videos and pictures of Kirby and Lily during Terrell's visits and an update on how they were doing. It made my time away from home peaceful so I could enjoy myself. I wholeheartedly recommend Terrell!”
About: I had a cat from 2007 to 2023 named Bella. She was my soul cat and I loved taking care of her. I would make sure she always was loved, fed, given treats, bathed, had a thoroughly clean litter box, and enjoyed her life. I also loved buying fun toys for her! The same care I provided for my cat for 16 years is the same care I would provide for your cat.
“Amy was great! We felt so reassured that our kitty was getting the attention she needed while we were gone. I appreciated the daily photo updates and could tell she took great care of our girl.”
About: Kevin and I have both been caring for dogs and many other types of animals for our entire lives and absolutely couldn’t envision our life without several animals. Kevin has grown up around a family dog business - participating in AKC scent trials, agility training, boarding and almost any other type of dog event & training you can imagine. I’ve had cats and dogs my entire lifetime and used to help foster kittens as a child and teenager. We currently have two dogs, several cats, chickens, turkeys and more. Your animals will be in safe and caring hands with us! We both work but set our own schedules and/or work from home so your dog will rarely, if ever, be left alone. Since we have animals of our own, caring for additional pets is not a problem and part of our normal lifestyle. We have a large fenced dog run outside, in home kennel area, along with crates for crate trained dogs. Our property is about 5 acres and fully fenced with front gates so dogs cannot leave the area. We also have a couple large lawns we use for doggy playtime, fetch and training sessions.
About: I've had at least one cat since I was a child, and I have been housesitting since I graduated from high school. I know that cats have their own behaviors and schedules, and I make sure to adjust to their needs. I have a current RVT license and have been and RVT for over 10 years. I am comfortable with medications and medical treatments if needed. Multi-cat households are no problem.
“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!”
About: I have experience taking care of dogs of all breeds, ages and sizes for up to weeks at a time for neighbors and friends. If they could talk I'm sure they'd recommend me - I always have a blast taking care of them and enjoy playing and exploring with them I work from home and generally have a decent amount of time to spend towards my dog. I usually take my dog on 3 or 4 short or medium walks There is a fenced dog play area outside. I usually take the dogs for a walk along the marina. There is space inside and they are welcome on the couch
About: I've taken care of dogs my entire life and made it a professional hobby in 2014 when I completed my coursework at Animal Behavior College and became a certified dog trainer. I worked for a company called "Zoom Room" in Walnut Creek for a bit before branching out and running my own business for private lessons, dog sitting and walking when we lived in the East Bay. I also have experience working in a veterinary hospital, dog boarding and daycare as well as medication administration. Once I became a mother to two beautiful boys I took a break and focused on family and raising my own well mannered pups! I have an anatolian mix and a golden retriever who are calm and well loved members of our family. To say I have a passion for dogs is an understatement. My walks will naturally include leash manners and basics- a bonus for you- and any animal care I provide will be given with love under a watchful eye as well! I am a stay-at-home mama with a kindergartner who is in school half days during the week. My schedule is very flexible because of this. I cannot care for pets in my own home at this time as our yard is not fenced in 100% and I cannot stay overnight in your home at this time either. However, caring for pets in their own home and doing multiple check-ins a day is a breeze. I usually spend extra time giving some love, some bonus walks and attention to the pets after completing whatever duties are required. Safety is always first priority so trust that your pet will be cared for as if they were my own fur babies.
“Ashley is a dedicated and caring pet sitter! My cat loved her and got some excellent quality time and enrichment from her visits. Ashley showed up and sent updates and photos every day. She is also diligent about asking questions to ensure the best care for your pets. Highly recommended.”
“Haley is great with the dogs and is very reliable. We wouldn't entrust our dogs to just anyone and Haley is someone you can trust and count on. We will continue to use Haley in the future for watching and or walking our dogs. Thank you Haley”

Feel free to turn to me for last minute bookings due to my wide open schedule. I love going on walks as a way to get both your pet’s exercise as well as mine. But most importantly I provide attention, safety, and comfortability for pets.

“Blaze is absolutely THE BEST! I needed someone last minute and she was available and took amazing care of my dog. He helped her do all the fam chores this morning, met a bunch of new animals and loved her kids. Would recommend 1000%”
About: With 13 years of experience caring for a diverse range of animals, including dogs, cats, birds, and horses. I also bring 9 years of experience working in a small animal veterinary hospital as a Registered Vet Tech. I am focusing on pet-sitting as my primary occupation at the moment. My daily routine begins with feeding the dogs and horses, followed by a morning walk around the property. Throughout the day, I allow them to play in the yard, giving them the opportunity for exercise and enjoyment. In the afternoon, to facilitate some quiet time, I either give a puzzle toy or a no-hide chew treat, and we conclude the day with dinner and a final walk before bedtime. I offer boarding services in my home on a fully fenced 5-acre property. The space includes a small fenced-in dog yard, as well as a fence around the front area. I have automatic dog bowls outdoors that provide filtered water and are cleaned often. Additionally, I provide multiple dog beds for comfort. At night, I prefer all dogs to sleep in cages, so I have a designated room with cages for that purpose. I also have one bed available outside, with the option to add more beds if needed. All the dogs in my care are friendly and sociable with each other, and I only accept house-trained dogs that are good with other dogs.
About: Hi! I have 5 years of experience walking dogs of all sizes, especially small and medium breeds. Your dog’s safety and comfort are always my top priority, and I make sure every walk is both fun and secure. I work from home, so I have a very flexible schedule that allows me to easily incorporate pet care throughout my day. I’m able to take dogs out for walks, provide regular potty breaks, feed them on time, and give them attention and play as needed. Because I’m home most of the day, I can closely monitor their safety, comfort, and overall well-being, making sure they get consistent care and companionship. Safety, trust, and a calm environment are always my top priorities. I make sure pets are supervised, secure, and comfortable at all times, whether in my home or a client’s home. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding, walks, and any specific care instructions. I keep spaces clean, remove any potential hazards, and provide a safe, stress-free environment. I also give regular updates so you can feel confident your pet is well cared for.

I already sent another request for Max tomorrow. I highly recommend her, I can tell that she is genuine and truly loves working with pets.”

“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.”

“June is the best! Bella spent the day with June and her dog Ceaser. Bella is a special needs dog and June knew just how to work with her to make her feel comfortable. June made sure to keep me posted and updated on Bella throughout her stay. She sent lots of pictures so I could see how she was doing. Her dog Ceaser was great with Bella too. Bella has become very attached to June. She also loves Ceaser, her new gentle giant friend. I strongly recommend June if you’re looking for a very responsible caring sitter for your pup. I know Bella is in good hands with June, and will be using her as our sitter in the future.”

You will feel it and so will your fur baby. *She customizes your baby stay to meet their needs *Her home is inviting and EXTREMELY clean (super important to me) *She kept me up to date on what Taylor was doing and sent pics. Book her, you won’t be disappointed :)”
About: I had a dog for 15 years who I took for walks, well-trained, and cared for. Our home has a large backyard with a maintained lawn where your pet can play and enjoy some quiet time. We live near a park which is walking distance where your pet can meet and play with other dogs. We do not have cats. I am a retired schoolteacher, occasionally do volunteer work in the Sacramento community, enjoy traveling, and stay active. I can spend one on one time with your pet. Our home is single story with a large fenced backyard and a raised bed where we grow our own vegetables. A public park is walking distance from our home where your pet can play and meet other dogs. We don't have cats and our neighborhood is relatively quiet. We also have a radio flyer wagon which can be used for older dogs.
About: I offer personalized dog care in a safe, peaceful home where each dog receives close attention, structure, and affection.

I also keep pet parents informed with regular updates, photos, and clear communication throughout the stay. I work from home full time, which allows me to be present throughout the day and give your dog regular attention, supervision, companionship, potty breaks, and a comfortable routine. We live in a house with a fenced yard, so dogs have a safe and secure space to relax and play. I also have a gentle and friendly dog of my own who gets along well with others.

I truly love dogs and will make sure your pup feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while they are with us.
“Rekha is very caring and made me feel comfortable leaving my puppy in her care. He is usually timid; however, he took an immediate liking to her. She took him for a walk and gave him lots of attention. I will definitely rebook her again!”
About: I grew up on a dairy raising various types of farm animals and have land for them to run around and get plenty of exercise and fresh air. I also have a working service dog, so I have had experience in basic obedience training and see animals as more than just pets. My German/Aussie shepherd mix loves helping other dogs learn and is a peacemaker to any guests. Learning about other breeds and seeing what makes them special or unique is one of my favorite things about what I do. I am in and out of the house working on the farm or just hanging with them all day! Never more than a couple hours without seeing me! Perfect for your dog to be close to town but far enough away from the 4th of July fireworks. We have a big fenced yard, behind another large gate from the road so the space is secure. There are two house hats and my service dog Willow.
About: With over 40 years of experience caring for animals, I treat every pet as if they were my own. I am experienced with puppies, senior pets, medications, basic first aid, and I pride myself on being dependable, loving, patient, and attentive. My home offers a fully fenced yard, locked gate, covered patio, and dog door access for a safe and comfortable stay. Whether your pet needs a walk, drop-in visit, daycare, or overnight care, they’ll be loved, safe, and well cared for while you’re away. I walk every morning. I work from home during the week, taking breaks throughout the day. Thankfully my schedule is flexible and many times I like to add in an evening walk as well, weather permitting. Whether in my home or yours, I care for every pet as if they were my own. I provide a safe, loving, and attentive environment while carefully following routines, special instructions, and care needs. My goal is for every pet to feel comfortable and secure, and for every owner to have peace of mind knowing their pet is in trusted hands.
About: Animals have always been a big part of my life. I cared for my own deaf English Bulldog for 10 years, learning how to communicate through touch, patience, and consistency. I also cared for my senior black Lab with hip issues—giving gentle massages and modifying our walks so we could still enjoy time together safely. Over the years, I’ve had experience with dogs, cats, birds, and fish, and I genuinely love being around animals of all kinds. I’m confident administering medications, tending to wounds, and giving extra care to both puppies and senior pets. Every animal is unique, and I take the time to understand their needs so they feel safe, loved, and at home—even when you’re away. When picking up or dropping off your fur baby, plan on no later than 5:00 PM Pet care is a priority in my daily routine. I keep a flexible schedule that allows me to give your pets the time and attention they need. Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or mine, their safety and comfort always come first. I take the time to get to know each pet’s routine, personality, and needs so they feel secure and cared for. I follow all instructions carefully—from feeding schedules to medications—and I keep your home clean and respected while you’re away. I create a calm, positive environment, paying close attention to body language and behavior to ensure your pet feels relaxed and safe. I always double-check gates, leashes, and doors, and I never leave pets unsupervised in unsafe situations. You can trust that your pet will be in good hands, receiving gentle care and genuine affection every step of the way.
“Amanda is fantastic! My boy, Dickson, absolutely loves going to her house for daycare. He has so much fun and is always pooped when he gets home. Amanda takes great care of him and sends lots of pictures and updates throughout his stays. I will definitely keep using Amanda for my dog sitting and boarding needs.”

About: I have been a pet owner since I entered the world. Most of my experience is with dogs, but I do have two cats. As of now, most of my pet-sitting jobs have been for close family friends. I am just starting on my Rover journey. I am a college student who is looking to help pay for my college expenses. I'm only offering Friday-Sunday right now since I will be working during the week and don't have a flexible schedule. On the weekends, your dogs will have my full attention :) I do not provide care in my own home. I will work with you to ensure that your pet feels safe with me while I am in their space.
About: For the past four years, I have raised and cared for chickens, lambs, and goats for our county fair. My responsibilities included feeding, cleaning pens, changing water, and walking and training each animal one to two times daily. I always made sure to dedicate consistent, quality time to properly train and care for each of my animals. While these are not the specific types of animals I would be caring for in this position, I believe this experience reflects my strong work ethic, responsibility, and ability to care for animals of all sizes and needs. In addition to my fair experience, I have had animals my entire life. Currently, I have three dogs and ten chickens at home, and I am responsible for their daily care, including feeding, cleaning, and overall needs. My oldest dog is 15 years old, and I have been primarily responsible for his care for the past seven years. Most of my experience is with small dogs under 20 pounds, but I have also walked and cared for larger dogs weighing around 100 pounds. Additionally I have been a prominent member of Tokay FFA’s Veterinary science team, on this team I’ve learned dozens of minor medical procedures that I am confident in doing such as administration of various medications via oral, aural, and injections, bandage wrapping and removal, and the concept of safe handling with all kinds of animals. I am well versed in many species of animals, ages, and sizes so I hope to be a good fit for your beloved pets. I am currently on summer break and will be attending college this coming fall, as of right now my schedule is fairly open. T is a few days where my hours may change, but overall I am available at all times of day every day to fit your needs. Times are subject to change and if I ever have a conflict I will be sure to notify you with proper prior notice to ensure your pets are taken care of. If there is fences at your home I will always be sure to lock and close them behind me if your pets are inside, I am also well versed in handling larger dogs/animals so I will not easily be pushed to the side if your pet is prone to doing so. I am confident in my animal handling skills and if your dog needs to be fenced in or crated I am confident I can do so.

I am able to adapt to every pets’ different routines so it’s close to the schedule they’re used to. I live in a very safe neighborhood and close to a dog park as well. I would walk my dogs and take them to play at the parks often. I understand how crucial safety is when it comes to pets, especially in the care of someone other than their owners. I would take the upmost responsibility to make sure your fur babies are safe and loved.
About: I have experience taking care of dogs of all breeds, ages and sizes for up to weeks at a time for neighbors and friends. If they could talk I'm sure they'd recommend me - I always have a blast taking care of them and enjoy playing and exploring with them I work from home and generally have a decent amount of time to spend towards my dog. I usually take my dog on 3 or 4 short or medium walks There is a fenced dog play area outside. I usually take the dogs for a walk along the marina. There is space inside and they are welcome on the couch
About: I have been caring for dogs since I was a child and truly love animals of all kinds. I have experience with both big and small dogs, including caring for my aging and sick pup through the end of her life. I’ve also rescued several pitbulls, which taught me patience, compassion, and how to build trust with dogs from all backgrounds. I treat every dog like family and always strive to provide safe, loving, and attentive care. I work part-time from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to be available for pet care throughout the week and weekends. I’m able to care for your pup in your home and provide walks, playtime, companionship, and attentive care based on your dog’s individual needs and personality. My priority is always making animals feel safe, comfortable, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I understand that every pet and owner has different routines, boundaries, and preferences, and I will always follow what works best for both you and your animal. Whether your pet needs extra patience, structure, affection, or calm care, I strive to create a safe and trusting environment for them at all times.
About: I love animals and being able to assist people. I had two cotton de tulears growing up and have watched and cared for my friends chihuahua whenever she vacations. I am working a part time job with flexible hours and sometimes I also do work remotely so I can work with your schedule as much as time allows and with knowledge ahead of time. The way that I take care of houses and pets is the same because I do both based off of your instruction. I know that routine is important and I think where I really strive is listening to your wishes and communicating.
About: I have been taking care family, friends and neighbors animals since I was 10. I am not only experienced with dogs and cats but also horses and goats too! I am currently unemployed trying to pay my bills I’m looking for a full time job but as of right now this is my main source of income. I am willing to watch your pets in your home or stop by to take them for walks. I live in the dorms at the college so I am not able to take them home with me.
About: My friends and family have relied on me to look after their dogs when they’re at work or out of town. My care consists of lots of love, running around in parks and more.

I love playing with him in the backyard, taking him out for runs and to the parks, as well as grooming his coat.
About: Hi! I’m Alina!, an animal lover with several years of experience caring for dogs and cats of all breeds and sizes. Whether it’s energetic playtime, a long walk, or just cozy companionship, I tailor each visit to your pet’s unique needs and personality. I’m very patient, reliable, and safety-focused—I’ll treat your pet like my own. I’m comfortable handling multiple pets, and following detailed care instructions.

I currently work a part-time job, which gives me the flexibility to dedicate plenty of quality time to pet care.

About: It has been said to me that my first words as a child were ... barking! While I don't remember that, I do remember always having a connection with all furry companions. I grew up with dogs and cats and on occasion would visit my great grandparents' ranch, with horses, goats and more. I loved giving the animals snacks. More recently, I moved onto a small farm. I helped take care of over a dozen chickens and 2 turkeys; feeding, watering, cleaning the coop. My formal career experience has been in education. In addition to many childcare and classroom support jobs, I also taught public school for 5 years. In either environment, my natural tendency is using my natural empathy to provide personalized care. I am not only a sitter on Rover, but have used the service myself to board my cat before. I know what it's like to leave your baby in someone else's hands! Please communicate specifically to me so that we can rest assured all needs are met for your beloved pet(s). I will treat your furry family member like I would want mine to be treated - patiently, attentively, carefully and lovingly - and only ask that you communicate any expectations or other information clearly and thoroughly. I may ask a lot of questions to clarify, and welcome any of yours! (Además soy bilingüe ❤️) I currently update my schedule on a week-by-week basis. I work part-time as an in-home Instructor for developmentally disabled adults. This is only during weekdays. My availability will vary due to the unique schedule of that job. For example, if a client has a cold, that would be a cancellation on short notice, which would allow me to be available with Rover. So far I've had sufficient flexibility to pet sit and especially housesit in the area. I will reply to your request ASAP and we can go from there. Thank you! For this reason, I prefer to fill my schedule on a day-to-day basis, or at least weekly. I'm happy to answer any questions about specifics, so there is no confusion. Naturally, I'll provide the same consideration I'd expect from someone taking care of my home or pet. Most owners have written instructions down and that has been helpful. I tend to note things down myself, even if they're very simple, just to assure that they are not forgotten. I'll be detail oriented, focused, careful and respectful.
About: I've been housesitting since 2010, mainly cats and dogs. Multi-pet houses don't bother me and I'm good at keeping with your fur kids' schedules. I have and RVT license that is current and have been an RVT for over 10 years. I took a break from housesitting to work at animal hospitals, including a 24-hour critical care hospital in the ICU. Medications and medical treatments are no problem for me. I have an open schedule and am comfortable with either staying at your home for your pet's comfort, or I can visit everyday to make sure they are cared for. I adjust to their wants and needs and stick to their schedule. I'm low stress and understand that sometimes pets just need to warm up to you. As for my personal pets, there's four cats with totally different personalities that run the house (I just live there).
About: Family and friends always rely on me to care for their dogs (watch , feed, walk, etc). I’ve always loved dogs and willing to do anything for them!! I have a couple animals of my own that i love very much. I currently have lots of free time on my hands and i’d like to spend it by taking care of some animals and helping out! I can work with whatever you have at your house and will do as needed. As long as i’m shown what to do and how to do it everything will be perfect!
“Thank you so much for walking and playing with my Lil Buddy while I was gone. My roommate thanks you too. I am sure I'll be using your services again. I really loved the pictures you sent. Thanks again.”

It was so helpful to know she was well taken care of while I was away!”
