“We were extremely happy with Irina and can truly recommend her without any hesitation. From the very beginning, we felt completely comfortable leaving our dogs in her care. Throughout our time away, she sent us regular updates, messages, and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind. Our dogs were clearly happy, relaxed, and well cared for — which says everything. Irina is incredibly kind, reliable, and attentive, and you can truly tell that she loves what she does and cares deeply about the dogs she looks after. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would absolutely trust her with our dogs again anytime. Thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of them! 🐶❤️”
“Annie is great! She’s so sweet and kind! She accommodated every need for my Bella and went above and beyond. Check ins were good and she even bathed my dog. She treated Bella like her own and for that, I’m thankful!”
“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”
“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!”
“Eros loved his stay. They have a wonderful and clean home and gave Eros lots of love and attention. I got plenty of updates and photos and videos. I will definitely be keeping Joanne and Jim as my first option for taking care of my sweet boy.”
“Thank you so much Briana for taking such great care of our two furry babies. I felt so at ease being away for "12 days" knowing our babies was in such caring hands. See you again next year.”
“Doggy Disneyland with Denise was a dream for my puppy. My yorkie, Aston has a lot of puppy energy, he enjoyed playtime with the other dogs, and appeared to really have enjoyed this time from the videos & photos denise to the initiative to share. Very happy guy when i picked him up. overall we are likely to return in the future & highly recommend.”
“Anais was very aware and considerate of my dog’s needs and our preferences. She was communicative and shared pictures throughout the stay. I will definitely reach out to Anais again in the future.”
“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.”
“Wow! Thank you so much, Yifang and Wing! Charlie has been through a lot. Before I adopted him, he had been surrendered to the shelter twice, so he gets very nervous and scared around new people. Yifang and Wing were absolute lifesavers. They were so patient with Charlie and took the time to make sure he felt safe and comfortable. They sent the cutest photos, took him on walks, and gave me so much peace of mind. The sweetest part was that by the time I got home, they really knew Charlie and his little personality. It was clear how much they cared for him. Thank you both for taking such wonderful care of my boy. I highly recommend you!”
“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!”
“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.”
“Lucy was a little stand offish at first but Zariyah eventually made her feel comfortable and at ease. Verified by daily video updates. Zariyah was very accommodating to our schedule and needs by allowing us a day earlier drop off date and a late evening pick up. She is very courteous, professional and thoughtful. We will definitely be blessing Lucy with another stay with her. Her personal dogs are friendly too.”
“My dog was very comfortable with Rekha. My dog is usually very nervous and I could tell she enjoyed her stay. Rekha and her family are very nice people and I would recommend her dogsitting to anyone.”
“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!”
“Both my cat and dog stayed with her for over 2 weeks. She really took good care of them. I definitively recommend and I will book again in the future.”

“My second time using Victoria and I’ve found her dependable, caring, respectful of my pets and home and great at cleaning up after my cats. I will happily use her again.”
“Excellent experience! She took wonderful care of Rubí over the weekend. She was kind, responsible, and kept me updated with photos and messages, which gave me great peace of mind. Rubí was happy and well cared for. I highly recommend her, and I would definitely trust her to care for my dog again!”
“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.”
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.

“Our experience with Ceudi was great. She took great care of our dog for the day. He is on regular meds and she gave it on time and kept us posted as well. He seemed happy and comfortable with her and her family. Would definitely recommend her.”
“First time Rover user, and we couldn't more impressed with Annie. Starting with the "meet and greet", Annie welcomed our big baby despite his huge size (100lbs). He has an injury that requireds a special touch, and Annie more than delivered. We received pictures and videos throughout the day, and I swear, he almost didn't want to come home! We will certainly let Annie care for our big baby on day and overnight visits in the future! 🥰”

About: I currently have two dogs at home that have been raised since they were puppies. I provide consistent routines for our dogs and am confident in my ability to provide stability for your dogs while you are away from home. My home has a fenced off area indoors and outdoors to give your dogs plenty of space to roam around and not have to be fully cooped up all day. I will help your dogs have a home away from home. I currently have a full time job, but my job also allows for work from home so my schedule is based on my ability to be home during your pet’s stay. Even if I need to be in office, I can come home during my lunch break for 30 minutes to tend to the dogs. On weekends I will be home and only go out for a few hours at a time for groceries. I am very familiar with crate training and other simple tricks for dogs. I always feed all dogs separately to ensure no food guarding occurs and we monitor the dogs throughout meal time. I am comfortable with feeding basic medications if needed.
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: 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 have a senior dog of 17 years (and going strong) so I know how hard it is to trust others with my own dog. I’m a very active person with a lot of love to give. I’ve dog sat for friends and family from golden retriever puppies to chihuahuas, i’ll make sure your pet feels comfortable with me. I’m currently one of my brother's caregivers and so when I’m not looking over him I have more time to play with your fur baby. I understand line of sight (I use to work at an after school program) so your pet will not be alone. Different pets have different needs so I’ll make sure to go at their pace.
About: I’ve had a passion for animals since I was 10 years old. Growing up, I often brought home stray dogs and cats that needed love, care, and a safe place to stay. I’ve also helped friends, family, and neighbors by caring for their pets while they were out of town or busy with work. I always made sure their pets stayed on their normal feeding, potty, and exercise routines, and I treated every animal as if they were my own. I currently work part-time, which gives me plenty of flexibility to care for your furry family members. I’m reliable, responsive, and happy to provide updates while you’re away.

In addition to caring for your pets, I’ll also help keep your home tidy and in order so you can return to a clean, stress-free environment. It would be my pleasure to care for your pets and give you peace of mind while you’re away, knowing they’re in loving and capable hands. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I schedule my day around the pets I’m caring for to make sure they receive the attention they deserve. Whether it’s morning walks, feeding, potty breaks, playtime, or overnight care, I’m committed to keeping your pet on their normal routine. I provide regular updates with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any special needs they may have. In your home, I’ll respect your space, follow all care instructions, and keep everything clean and organized. I make sure pets always have fresh water, plenty of exercise, lots of affection, and a safe, stress-free environment where they feel loved and secure.
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 do in kennel enrichment and dog walking at the SPCA. It has educated me a lot about positive reinforcement training, desensitization, compassion, and counter conditioning within dog behavior. I am very understanding of every dog's different temperaments and boundaries. I am the proud owner of Max, an 11 year old Pitbull who has been my best friend for over a decade. I am available anytime after 12pm, where your dog’s established routine becomes my priority. Whether they need strict mid-day feeding times or frequent potty breaks throughout the afternoon, I will be there for your pet. I am able to offer consistent, focused attention, structured enrichment, and companionship exactly when your pet needs it most. Safety is my top priority, with SPCA volunteer training and 11 years with my senior Pitbull, Max. In your home, I strictly follow your routine, maintain your house rules, and ensure all doors and gates stay locked and secure. On walks, my shelter experience means I am hyper-aware of our surroundings, good at reading dog body language, and fully confident being your dog's handler.

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.

About: I've grown up with pets my entire life specifically dogs, and I am familiar with cats through friends. I understand the unique needs of different animals and am comfortable with dogs of all sizes. I have some experience of providing basic training reinforcement, and ensuring pets get plenty of exercise and playtime. What sets me apart is my genuine love for animals and my commitment to providing a safe, comfortable, and fun environment for every pet in my care. Pet care is a priority in my daily routine. I structure my day to ensure pets receive regular walks, playtime, and attention. I'm flexible and can adjust my schedule to meet the specific needs of each pet, whether it's a midday walk for a dog or regular feeding. On weekends, I dedicate even more time to pet care, often taking dogs on longer hikes or spending extra time playing and cuddling with them. Whether in my home or yours, safety and comfort are my top priorities. I follow all feeding and medication instructions carefully and ensure pets are always supervised. In a client's home, I respect their space and follow their specific instructions to the letter. I maintain a clean and tidy environment, provide regular updates and photos, and ensure the pet feels safe and loved in their own familiar surroundings.
“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.”

“Annie is great! She’s so sweet and kind! She accommodated every need for my Bella and went above and beyond. Check ins were good and she even bathed my dog. She treated Bella like her own and for that, I’m thankful!”
“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!”
“Eros loved his stay. They have a wonderful and clean home and gave Eros lots of love and attention. I got plenty of updates and photos and videos. I will definitely be keeping Joanne and Jim as my first option for taking care of my sweet boy.”
“Thank you so much Briana for taking such great care of our two furry babies. I felt so at ease being away for "12 days" knowing our babies was in such caring hands. See you again next year.”
“Anais was very aware and considerate of my dog’s needs and our preferences. She was communicative and shared pictures throughout the stay. I will definitely reach out to Anais again in the future.”
“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!”
“Lucy was a little stand offish at first but Zariyah eventually made her feel comfortable and at ease. Verified by daily video updates. Zariyah was very accommodating to our schedule and needs by allowing us a day earlier drop off date and a late evening pick up. She is very courteous, professional and thoughtful. We will definitely be blessing Lucy with another stay with her. Her personal dogs are friendly too.”
“My dog was very comfortable with Rekha. My dog is usually very nervous and I could tell she enjoyed her stay. Rekha and her family are very nice people and I would recommend her dogsitting to anyone.”
“Both my cat and dog stayed with her for over 2 weeks. She really took good care of them. I definitively recommend and I will book again in the future.”
“My pup had a great time at this doggie resort- the large backyard, shade and Zuko made it a wonderful place for my nervous girl. Seeing how Marilee interacted with Monina gave me the peace of mind to enjoy my vacation. Will definitely rebook whenever I need to travel.”
“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 highly recommend Anton as a sitter. We left our dog, Frankie with him for about 3 days and he was amazing. He provided regular updates. We have left our dogs with other sitters before but with Anton we never had to worry about how our dog was doing because he sent updates multiple times a day and this allowed us to enjoy our vacation without any stress. He was so easy to work with and flexible with the pick up and drop off times when we wanted to drop off or pick up early. We will definitely use him again as long as he will have us!”
“We had such a great experience with Annie! She’s incredibly attentive, communicative, and has such a wonderful personality. I really appreciated how often she checked in and kept us updated—it gave us so much peace of mind. Our pup had the best time with her, and we’re so grateful to have found someone we can trust! Already confirmed for next weekend.”
“We highly recommend Robert - our dogs clearly enjoyed their stay with him, which is quite something because it usually takes a while for them to warm up to a new person and place.”
About: Animals have always been my people. 🐾 I've spent over 20 years as a devoted pet owner, including my two wonderful Australian Shepherds. I am so grateful to have had them in my life to love and spoil! Ella and Maddie were well traveled too, even visiting the Grand Canyon and Yosemite! All my friends and family rely on me to take care of their pets and homes while they are away and I wouldn’t have it any other way. Early in my career, I spent five years as a Pet Care Manager at PetSmart, caring daily for all the animals, keeping them healthy and happy until we helped pair them with their forever homes. I'm very experienced with all levels of pet care, including special needs that require medications, injections, complex dietary routines, and reinforcing training. I am ready to handle whatever your pet needs, especially extra play time and cuddles. I am equally obsessed with all dogs and cats, and care for all breeds, sizes, and ages, from puppies and kittens through their senior years. I’m also experienced caring for birds, fish, reptiles, and small pets. 🐱🐰🐠 🐦🦎 I work remotely with a flexible schedule, so your babies get my attention all day!
