“This was my first time using Kazue and I couldn’t be happier .. she took such great care of my Mitzi! Kazue kept me updated with messages and pictures so I could see how my girl was doing. Will definitely use Kazue again and highly recommend to anyone looking for a kind and attentive pet sitter!”
“Susan and Irv took great care of Enola. Susan kept us updated and sent pictures to show how much fun Enola was having. This is the second time Enola has stayed with Susan and she definitely feels at home.”
“Sade is great and responded to a last minute request. She was communicative, and she responses very quickly. Her home is organized and clean, and her two fur babies are adorable. Trina stayed with her for one night and was well taken care of. I would come back again, thanks Sade!”
“Achara was fantastic! She took great care of my dog for a whole week, and was very accommodating with my last-minute request and when plans had to change. I will definitely rebook with her in the future.”
“Melissa was very patient and flexible with my dog and with our booking. I had to shorten the time which she was understandable about. I also learned my dog was a bit out of sorts on his first night and she was patient with him and sent lots of reassuring pictures and videos😊”
“Erin is a very loving doggy sitter. I can go away and feel my dog is in good hands. Erin sends two updates daily along with pictures. She has 2 dogs, who my dog gets along with just fine. I highly recommend Erin”
“I just used Alesya’s dog-sitting service for the first time, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. She took care of my 5-pound, 8-month-old Chihuahua puppy for an entire week and treated her so well. Her home is clean, welcoming, and full of positive energy — the perfect environment for a little puppy. She sent me daily updates and photos, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. My puppy came back happy, healthy, and clearly well cared for. I highly recommend Alesya to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving dog sitter. I will definitely be using her services again and again!”
“Miya is absolutely amazing! 🥰 She takes such incredible care of my dogs every single time. I can always tell how happy and comfortable they are with her it feels like they’re on a little vacation of their own when they stay with her. She takes them on multiple walks a day, brushes them and even takes care of their teeth, and she always keeps me updated with plenty of photos and videos. It’s so clear that she genuinely loves dogs and treats them like her own. I’m so grateful to have found someone as caring and trustworthy as Miya!❤️”
“Christany and her family were an absolute delight! She was super accommodating and accepted my request just a few days before my trip and I was so grateful! She did an amazing job with my 2 year old frenchie, Wellington. He must’ve had a blast because he didn’t want to leave! Her children were amazing with him and gave him lots of attention and walks, and Christany did a great job of monitoring the dog/cat interactions to make sure everyone was safe which I greatly appreciated as my dog had never been around cats before. I can’t recommend Christany and her family enough! I seriously felt so at ease leaving my dog with her and received frequent photo and message updates during my trip. 1000/10 recommend!”
“Lety is amazing! This was the first time I left Duke overnight and he did so good! Lety made sure to send updates about Duke throughout the day, and each day. I will definitely be booking again!”
“I needed a last minute sitter for my pup and luckily Martha accepted my request. She did a meet and greet the same day I submitted my request and asked a lot of questions about the care and schedule for my pup which made me feel reassured. During the stay Martha was very responsive and gave frequent updates with pictures and videos which I appreciated! When I picked up my pup she was very happy and healthy! I would definitely book again!”
“Nicole went above and beyond to make sure my pup was comfortable and well adjusted to her home. She also went above and beyond with communicating with me! I’ll be booking again!”
“Doh was an excellent communicator for our first time experience with Rover. Louie was in good hands with extra playmates and she treated him like he was her own dog. I would highly recommend Doh to anyone looking for a dog sitter.”
“Destiny is an amazing dog sitter. Mochi has aggressive tendencies, but had a great time going on walks, hanging out at Destiny's work, and going for rides in the car. I loved all the photos Destiny sent me every day. It looked like she and Mochi were having a great time together. Thanks for everything, Destiny!”
“Mir and her family were great with Cookie. She did check in and let me know how cookie was doing over the 3 days and sent pictures. We will definitely use her again should Cookie need a sitter.”
“Kendra goes beyond what is expected to make sure your dog is happy, healthy, and well cared for. I don't think my dog could have been in better hands. I would not hesitate to use her.”
“Tracey was AMAZING with my fur babies! My two pups are a little wild when they are together but are inseparable. Tracey was not at all fazed that I needed a sitter for not just 1 but 2 frenchies. She was very communicative. Sent me pics and updates of the doggos throughout the day. The dogs seemed to really love running around in her spacious backyard. Thank you, Tracey for the genuine care of Arya and Hero. 100% recommend and definitely will be using her again”
“Grisel and her daughter took such good care of my Momo! I could tell Momo was comfortable and felt safe. They were also excellent communicators and send me very frequent picture updates of Momo, which I really appreciated. Would definitely have Momo stay with them again.”
“Jena was more than amazing. She made Noelle's day. In fact, Noelle feel in love with her family within days. Jena would constantly update us with photos and updated news of Noelle. I highly recommend anyone who is a dog lover to book with Jena. I know that I will book with Jena in the future. I can't say enough about Jana. Thank you so much from Frank & Elesia. Noelle will miss you guys.”

About: While I haven’t personally owned a cat, I’ve been around and helped care for cats for years through my dad, friends, and pet sitting. I’m comfortable with feeding, refreshing water, cleaning litter boxes, playtime, check-ins, and giving them attention while also respecting when they want their space. I know every cat has their own personality and routine, and I’m happy to follow whatever makes your cat feel the most comfortable while you’re away. I’ve also helped my friend with her pet-sitting clients, which has given me experience caring for pets outside of my own friends and family.
“Jasmine is Amazing! I have a medical cat who required medication nightly. She was able to pill him was so attentive! When we did our meet and greet she asked questions about things I wouldn’t have thought to tell her! She gave me updates often and even brought a toy to play with one of our cats (our dogs eat all the cat toys). I hardly trust anyone with my cat but I felt so comfortable knowing she was there! I cannot recommend her enough!”
“Another great experience with Jess. It is clear that my dog really enjoys seeing her and spending time with her! I trust that my dog is in great hands anytime Jess comes over. Also appreciate all the affection my girlie gets. Thank you Jess!”
About: Hi! I’m Jasmine, new to Rover and currently offering discounted rates while I build my reviews. I provide attentive, reliable care and treat every pet like my own. Animals have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember, and caring for them truly makes me happy. I have over 20 years of experience, training in pet first aid, and a background in rescue and fostering, so I’m comfortable with everything from playful pups to shy or senior pets who just need a little extra patience and love. At home, I have two dogs and a cat of my own, so I completely understand how important it is to know your pets are safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I also offer house sitting and light cleaning, so not only are your pets taken care of, you’ll come home to a tidy, well-looked-after space too. I’m happy to help with things like bringing in mail, keeping things clean, and making sure everything runs smoothly while you’re gone. Expect lots of updates, cute moments, and peace of mind knowing your pets (and home!) are in good hands 💛 I work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pets the attention they deserve throughout the day. I’m available for drop-ins, walks, and house sitting, and can easily fit into your pet’s normal routine to keep things consistent and stress-free. Whether your pet needs early mornings, midday check-ins, or evening cuddles, I’ve got it covered! I provide care in your home so your pets can stay comfortable in their own space and routine. I take the time to learn each pet’s needs, personality, and preferences to make sure they feel safe, relaxed, and well cared for. With experience in pet first aid, rescue, and fostering, I’m comfortable handling a variety of situations and always prioritize safety. I’m also respectful of your home and happy to help keep things tidy, bring in mail, and make sure everything is just as you left it, or better, when you return. You’ll get regular updates, photos, and peace of mind knowing your pets are getting lots of love and attention while you’re away 🐾 I am happy to meet at a coffee shop prior to your booking so you can ensure I'm the right fit!
About: I’ve taken care of any kind of animal you can name. I’ve worked/volunteered at recuses, breeders, vet offices, and my family has raised and raced standardbred horses since I was born. I also pet/house sit often. I know cpr/first aid for both dogs, cats, and small animals. I have also been approved for my 501(c)3 non for profit animal rescue license and I’m working towards starting my own animal rescue center. I work part time overnights, I currently care for my cats, 7 peacocks, garden! And regularly assist/have owned exotic birds (large and small), dogs (large and small), equine (large and small), bovine (stock and show), sheep, goats, pigs, turkeys (stock and show), chickens (bantam, standard, large and show), snakes, fish, rabbits, rats (feeders and pets), ferrets, hedgehogs, tortoises (large and small), along with experience in the husbandry with most animals! So hard work is not new to me! As someone who leaves things better than I find them, your house, pets, and privacy are are my number one priority. I understand that planning trips and trusting a member(s) of your family/your home can be a huge stress. I hope that I can take some of that away during that time! You won’t have to worry about the safety of your pets, state of your home, or any medication/special needs, random accommodations your pet(s) may have or need!
About: I grew up on a ranch taking care of all kinds of animals! Growing I had 5 dogs and 2 cats that I was regularly tasked with the care of. I’ve dealt with many puppies and kittens and love getting to take of and bond with them. I currently have a german shepard husky mix and a little black cat 🤗 I work graveyard shifts, which means Im available everyday of the week as early as needed into the late afternoon! Thursdays and Fridays Im open all day and night. I’ll always make sure the owner is updated and aware whilst Im caring for their pet to ensure theres to worry, as-well as making sure I understand every rule/precaution given.
“Mooney is so great with our Kitty! No joke — we’re pretty sure she was disappointed to see us walk in the door after our trip instead of Mooney. We will continue to be repeat customers, and we highly recommend Mooney.”
About: What sets me apart as a sitter is my experience, versatility, and special skills. Not only do I currently dog sit and house sit for three families on an as-needed basis, but I also bring a wealth of experience in handling dogs of all ages and needs. I’m skilled at training puppies, which includes basic obedience and socialization techniques. Additionally, I’m comfortable with senior dogs, providing them with extra care and attention to meet their specific health and mobility needs. My commitment to understanding each dog’s unique personality and routine ensures they feel safe, loved, and well-cared for while you're away. I currently work full-time in a community-based job where I have the flexibility to create my own schedule. I like to tailor my schedule around my needs for the week, with weekends being when I have the most availability. My current families prefer that I stay in their home, and I’m open to doing the same with other families as well When caring for pets in my client's home, I make sure to follow any specific instructions or routines the family has established. I ensure pets are fed on time, given fresh water, and get the appropriate amount of exercise and attention. I also monitor their health, administer any needed medications, and keep the environment safe and clean. If there are specific needs or requests for the pets, I prioritize those to make sure they feel comfortable and cared for in the absence of their owners
“Markita made our first Rover booking the easiest decision ever. We were nervous leaving Freddie and Charlie alone with a “stranger” for 12 days - this was the longest we’ve been away from them. Markita gave us the peace of mind we needed to relax on our trip. She was responsive and went the extra mile with everything. Most of all, she bonded with the boys which was really special. Thanks Markita for taking care of our boys and our home! We know exactly who to call on to take care of them for our next trip. ❤️🐱”
“Shelby was awesome with my cat. She posted pictures at every visit. She was very loving and affectionate, and my cat just ate that up! Also, my cat is a diabetic and requires insulin injections twice a day. That was absolutely no problem for Shelby which gave me tremendous peace of mind. I had no worries at all with her caring for my baby. I would definitely recommend Shelby and will be using her again.”

Currently, I have an in person class on mondays and wednesdays at 6pm and 2 other classes online. Sunday afternoons and Tuesday evenings I have religious meetings I go to other than that I am free to stay at someone's house let them out during the day or even stay for a bit to visit with the fur-babies while I do some school work. Im not offering boarding at my home, but when visiting someone else's house I am able to feed, check waters, clean up little accidents, and let the dog in and out of the home into their yard or if the dog/owner prefers a quick walk I can do that too. I can also throw their favorite toy around with them if this is the preferred exercise

About: I know how hard it is to leave your pet with someone else. Whether you're traveling for work, taking a vacation, or simply need help during a busy week, you're trusting someone to care for a member of your family. I understand that responsibility, and I never take it for granted. I specialize in House Sitting, Pet Boarding, and Dog Walking, providing personalized care that's tailored to each pet's unique personality, routine, and needs. Whether your pet is energetic and playful, shy and reserved, a curious kitten, or a senior companion who enjoys a slower pace, I take the time to understand what makes them feel comfortable, happy, and secure. I welcome pets of all breeds, sizes, and ages, including cats. From playful puppies to senior pets and those with special needs, I tailor my care to meet each pet's individual personality and routine. I also have extensive experience administering oral medications and carefully following detailed care instructions, so you can feel confident your pet's health and well-being are always my priority. I don't see pets as another booking on my calendar. I see them as family members who deserve patience, kindness, attention, and genuine affection. Every pet deserves to feel safe, loved, and understood while their family is away. My goal isn't simply to care for your pet. It's to earn your trust and become someone you can rely on whenever you need dependable, compassionate pet care. Because I work from home and have a flexible schedule, pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. Your pet will receive plenty of companionship, supervision, and love throughout the day and won't be left alone for long periods. My flexible schedule allows me to provide regular potty breaks, meals, medications, walks, playtime, cuddles, and one-on-one attention based on your pet's normal routine. I know consistency helps pets feel secure, so I do everything I can to make their day feel familiar, comfortable, and stress-free. Communication is just as important to me as the care I provide. When you book with me, you can expect: • Daily updates so you always know how your pet is doing. • Plenty of photos and videos so you can enjoy the little moments you'll miss. • Prompt, reliable communication whenever you have questions. • Honest updates about meals, walks, playtime, naps, medications, and your pet's overall well-being. My goal is for you to relax and enjoy your time away, knowing your pet is happy, safe, and receiving the same love and attention they're accustomed to at home. Whether I'm caring for your pet in my home or yours, my priority is always the same: creating a safe, loving, and stress-free environment where they feel comfortable, secure, and cared for. For added convenience, my home is located about 15 minutes from Sacramento International Airport (SMF), making drop-off and pick-up easy for pet parents traveling for work, vacations, or weekend getaways. My home is designed with pets in mind. I have a large, fully fenced backyard where dogs can safely play and explore, along with several nearby parks and scenic walking trails that are perfect for daily walks, exercise, and outdoor adventures. Whether your pet enjoys an energetic game of fetch, exploring new scents, or a leisurely stroll, I'll make sure they get the activity, enrichment, and one-on-one attention they need. During every visit or stay, your pet receives much more than the basics. They'll enjoy companionship, playtime, enrichment, exercise, affection, and plenty of individualized attention. Whether they love chasing a ball, exploring the neighborhood, curling up on the couch, or simply relaxing beside someone they trust, I'll make sure their days are filled with comfort, fun, and genuine care. If I'm caring for your pet in your home, I'll carefully follow their established routine, including feeding schedules, medications, potty breaks, favorite activities, bedtime routines, and any special instructions you provide. I'll also treat your home with the same respect and care that I give your pet. Above all, I want every pet to feel loved, every home to be respected, and every pet owner to have peace of mind knowing their furry family member is safe, comfortable, and receiving attentive care. I'd love to schedule a Meet & Greet so we can get to know each other, answer any questions you may have, and make sure we're the perfect fit. I look forward to meeting you and welcoming your furry family member with the love, care, and attention they deserve.
“Wonderful experience! My dog was in great hands. The sitter was responsible, attentive, and very caring.

I highly recommend them and will definitely book again.”

I also have two young children, ages 5 and 3 so as long as your pets are comfortable and good around kids we would love to love on your fur babies!

About: I’ve loved and cared for animals since childhood and bring over 10 years of experience pet-sitting for friends and family. My home includes a gentle 10-year-old Alaskan Klee Kai and two senior cats—all of whom are completely dog-friendly, non-reactive, and well-accustomed to hosting guest dogs in our home. Since I work from home full-time, I am always there to ensure your pup gets personalized attention, continuous supervision, and a calm, low-stress environment. I host only one guest dog at a time so your pet receives my undivided care. My household is calm, clean, and family-friendly. My school-aged daughters have grown up with pets and know how to interact gently and respect a dog’s personal space. For added peace of mind, my senior cats also have their own dedicated upstairs sanctuary. Indoor Comfort: On hot or inclement days, we relax indoors where guest dogs are welcome to lounge on the living room sofa (bedrooms remain pet-free zones).

“Jess has been nothing sort of wonderful! I am SO happy and relieved I found her. She is very soft spoken and calm, but not timid. I have a mini Aussie so he is very high energy and smart. He can be a lot if not handled properly, but she does everything beautifully! Now he waits at the window to watch and wait for her as he loves her so much ❤️”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was around 10 years old, starting with my own family dogs and being responsible for feeding them, letting them out, playing with them, and making sure they were taken care of while I was home. As I got older, I started pet sitting for friends and family and eventually for people I didn’t know personally as well. I’ve also helped my friend Jade with her pet-sitting clients and have watched pets for a previous manager. I’m comfortable with walks, feeding, playtime, check-ins, overnight care, and following each pet’s individual routine. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pets, and I’ll always treat them with the same love and attention I give my own. I typically work morning shifts and am usually done with work by 12pm at the latest, which gives me plenty of availability throughout the afternoon and evening for walks, drop-ins, playtime, and overnight care. My schedule can vary week to week, but I’m happy to work with you to make sure your pet gets the care and attention they need. I know how important it is to trust someone with both your pets and your home.

I want your pet to feel as safe and comfortable as possible while you’re away, and I’ll make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, and love.

“Shelby feels like family. I asked her to stop by so I could introduce her to Lala and walk her through the routine. She was on time, and she made me feel very comfortable. She was at ease with Lala, who is almost blind, and somewhat stand offish. She is definitely, a keeper!”
“Tatjana was really fantastic with my dog. She took her time to get to know my dog during the meet and greet. She has an understanding of dogs and what they need. Definitely recommend her and will be using her services again. Thank you so much.”
“He watched our dog while we were out of town for four days and he was reliable and communicated with us during each visit. He sent photos of our pup on each visit and also fed and filled his water bowl. We will definitely be booking him again in the future. Thank you, Cedric.”

About: I’ve been a lifelong dog lover and am the proud dog mom of my own Husky–Goldendoodle, Nagi. Caring for her has given me experience with daily walks, exercise, feeding, enrichment, grooming, and understanding different dog personalities and needs. Friends and family have trusted me to care for their pets, and I know how important it is to provide a safe, loving, and consistent routine while owners are away. In my professional career, I manage programs for the State of California, so being dependable, organized, and communicating clearly comes naturally to me. I bring that same level of responsibility and care to every pet I look after. My goal is to make every pet feel comfortable, loved, and cared for while giving owners complete peace of mind. I’m available for morning, afternoon, evenings, weekend, and holiday pet care. I’m happy to provide walks, drop-in visits, and overnight house sitting depending on my schedule. I always keep my calendar updated and only accept bookings that allow me to give your pet the attention, exercise, and care they deserve. Communication is very important to me, and I’ll send regular photo updates throughout each visit. I know pets feel happiest when they can stay in their own familiar environment. I carefully follow your pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, medications (if needed), and any special instructions. I’ll respect your home as if it were my own and make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I provide frequent photo and video updates so you can travel with peace of mind, knowing your furry family member is in caring and reliable hands.

About: What sets me apart from other dog sitters is my deep understanding of dog behavior and my genuine passion for creating a safe, fun, and loving environment for every pup I care for. I don’t just “watch” dogs—I engage with them through structured play, enrichment activities, and tailored routines based on their needs and personalities. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine as a stay-at-home mom. I’m already used to maintaining a structured, nurturing environment, and that translates perfectly to caring for pets. I’m home throughout the day, so I can provide consistent attention, regular potty breaks, walks, playtime. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, my focus is always on creating a safe, loving, and stress-free environment.

About: My love for pets from a young age was so great that I willed my intense asthma and allergies to animals away by growing up with my childhood Jack Russell Terrier, Dash. For the canines, I have trained high anxiety reactive apartment dogs. and successfully established trust and security and worked together on their fears. For the felines, I adapt to their level of desired attention and mental fitness and remain as a constant presence - I don’t assume that they’re independent to be left on their own just because they are cats. I look forward to getting to know your companions and providing them a vacation too as you embark on your own~ I currently work full time (more detail in photos) and have a flexible hybrid work schedule to give your animals the attention they need and deserve. My fenced yard is secured and locked, so your dogs can roam freely in the yard (photos provided for more detail of the environment your doggos would be in)
“My regular sitter had to back out at the last minute and I was stressing out, but I'm very grateful to Marc and Rachael for accepting my 3 fur kids at the last minute. They sent me updates and pictures everyday, and I could tell that my dogs were very well cared for. Their house was a great environment for my doggies, and they did a great job with dogsitting them for a whole week. Highly recommended!”
“Kelsey and her family took such great care of our doodle! Patient and laidback was just what we were looking for. Our pup came back home well loved and exhausted from all the fun. Already planning future dates :)”
“Sherri did amazing with my golden doodle Luna! Luna stayed with her for 9 days and she was in good hands. Sherri is really responsive, friendly, and helped Luna learn to feel comfortable with new fur friends. I would highly recommend Sherri to anyone looking for overnight boarding or day support for their fur baby:-)”

“Ekaterina was absolutely lovely. I could tell the moment I dropped my Lucky off that Kate just adores dogs. Her daughter was respectful and sweet and I was so happy my old lady was taken such good care of. Lucky was safe healthy and happy upon pick up. I think Kate is a lovely sitter and a lovely person and I would trust her with my pride and joy, Lucky, any time.”
“I was extremely apprehensive leaving my dogs with anyone for the first time at their ages of 12 and 13, but Victoria was absolutely amazing. She answered any questions I had and listened to all of my particulars. Just by the updates she sent I could tell my babies were doing things they only ever do when they’re comfortable and totally relaxed. Couldn’t recommend her enough!”
“Sixuan was incredibly attentive, following all of my feeding instructions to the letter, taking Andi on regular walks, and ensuring she had her potty breaks every three hours or so. Coming home to find Andi looking so happy relaxed and healthy gave me total peace of mind. She sent regular pictures with updates about her welfare . I gladly give Sixuan 5 stars for her excellent service and cannot recommend Sixuan highly enough! She did an absolutely wonderful job looking after my fur-baby!”
“Annie is really sweet. Took good care of my big fur baby who was very anxious and it was his first time staying away from home but it turned out great! Thanks Annie!”
