“Wenchi was amazing with Raya! She sent regular updates with pictures and gave her the best treats. She was really flexible with us as well. We got married and she was willing come to the venue to pick her up directly after the ceremony! It was a seamless pick up. And the she was willing to drop her off to us in a farther location. We even changed the location a few times, and she was willing and happy to. We are so happy with her communication and taking such good care of Raya. Highly recommend!!”
“Randi took great care of our pup. Tons of pictures and updates (which were appreciated). Got to play with other dogs and be “part of the family” which is exactly what we wanted. Will definitely book again!”
“Lupe was absolutely wonderful with our service dog. She accepted him at the last minute during the holidays, which was truly a godsend for me since he’s always by my side. She understood that he’s a bit spoiled and treated him with so much care and kindness. She even sent us pictures and videos, which really eased my mind. I will definitely be recommending her. I can’t thank her enough.”
“Dash had a wonderful time with Giezell and her family. They treated him as their own. He was well taken care of. Love the pics and videos Giezell sent, especially the one with her daughter hugging Dash! We will definitely be back!”
“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!”
“Edward had another wonderful stay with Jessie. He gets so excited when he sees her. He’s so much happier staying with her than at a boarding kennel and she takes great care of him.”
“Charlie had a great time and was very tired coming home after 3 days. It’s so nice to know he is somewhere he enjoys instead of being stuck at home missing us. Looking forward to booking again!”
“Anthony is top-notch! He took great care of our King Charles Cavalier for four days. Anthony sent lots of pictures and videos of our dog playing with his dog, Kai. He took our dog on many walks to the local park and played fetch with the dogs his backyard. Anthony was very flexible with pickup/drop off times and had everything ready to go when it was time to take our dog home. I highly recommend Anthony for dog boarding and we will be rebooking with him in a few weeks.”
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is the level of love, patience, and personalized care I give every dog as if they were my own. I understand that every pup has a unique personality, routine, and comfort level, so I take the time to make sure they feel safe, happy, and at home while you’re away. I have experience caring for puppies who need extra attention, structure, potty training support, and plenty of playtime, as well as senior dogs who require a calmer environment, medication administration, slower walks, and gentle care. I’m attentive to body language, behavior, and individual needs, which helps dogs quickly build trust and feel comfortable with me. Whether your dog is energetic and playful, shy and anxious, or older and needing extra patience, I provide reliable supervision, lots of affection, consistent communication, and a clean, stress-free environment. My goal is not just to “watch” your pet it’s to give them a positive experience where they feel loved, secure, and excited to come back. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I work part-time and mainly from home, which allows me to give dogs plenty of attention, supervision, and companionship throughout the day. I’m able to maintain a flexible schedule for walks, potty breaks, feeding times, playtime, and cuddle time, while also making sure each pet sticks to their normal routine as closely as possible. Since I’m home most of the time, pets are rarely left alone for long periods, which helps them feel comfortable, safe, and less anxious while their owners are away. I truly enjoy having animals around and make their care a priority in my everyday life, giving them lots of love, patience, and one on one attention. I provide a safe, clean, and comfortable home environment where dogs are treated like part of the family. Since I work part-time and mainly from home, I’m able to give pets plenty of supervision, attention, potty breaks, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. Dogs staying in my home are welcome to roam freely and relax comfortably in the house rather than being confined, helping them feel more at ease and at home during their stay. I can also crate dogs if requested by the owner or if it’s part of the dog’s normal routine for sleeping, feeding, or downtime. I always prioritize safety by carefully monitoring interactions, maintaining a calm environment, and following each dog’s specific care instructions, routines, dietary needs, and comfort levels. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, loved, stress free, and well cared for while giving owners peace of mind knowing their dog is in good hands.
“I can’t recommend Lisa enough!! She was flexible, communicative, and took amazing care of my girl, Marleigh 🐶. I was able to relax on my trip and Lisa made sure to send pictures and updates every day. Next time I need assistance with my dogs, Lisa will be my first phone call! 🥰”
“Our pack was in great hands with Roy. Two of our three dogs are seniors and he did an excellent job of meeting their needs. We received updates and pictures frequently while we were on our trip, which we loved. They had plenty of exercise and attention. We definitely came home to happy dogs. Roy is the BEST pet sitter!! His communication, attention to detail and professionalism alleviated any concerns we had about leaving our dogs while were away.”
“"I wanted to send a huge thank you for taking such amazing care of my dog! I really appreciate you keeping me updated with pics—it made me feel so much better knowing my furry baby was in good hands. You went above and beyond, and I'm so grateful! I can tell my puppy was in good hands just by me picking her up she still went inside her house and said goodbye with a lick to Tasha and that made me feel comfortable. I will so recommend her and I will be coming back to her soon. Thank you 😊”
“Gidget had a blast staying a few days at Michael and Melissa's home. Bonus...she got to play with kids, Mr Bubbles and a bird!!!! Michael and Melissa were very accommodating. Gidget is looking forward to the next visit! Highly recommend for your furry family member if it's for a day or several days!”

About: Hi! I am a teacher and dog lover! We have a large mix breed dog who loves to play and lounge. I used to volunteer at the senior dog rescue in San Francisco, Muttville and I have worked with dogs of all ages. I have week nights and weekends available to care for your animal. I am flexible when it comes to the care your indivisible pet needs. I am open to watching dogs at my house. We have a large, safe yard and they are allowed on furniture with their own blanket. If your dog does not do well with other dogs (young dogs), or they would be more comfortable in your home, I can do house visits.
About: As a professional research associate preparing to begin my PhD, I bring an exceptional level of detail, structure, and reliability to pet care. I am a fellow dog owner with extensive experience that ranges from house sitting cats and dogs to managing high energy environments with up to four dogs at once. Because I understand firsthand the daily routines and unique personalities of animals, I treat your pets with the exact same patience and care I give my own. My organized schedule ensures your home is fully respected and your furry family members receive dedicated companionship while you are away. As a research associate and incoming PhD student, my weekends are completely free for pet care. I love balancing fun, active time with animals alongside quiet study hours during their downtime. I’ve managed everything from single cats to packs of four dogs. I’ll give your pets the structured, reliable companionship they need while keeping your home perfectly respected. When staying in your home, I treat your space and your pets with the utmost respect. I strictly abide by all house rules, seamlessly maintain your pet’s established routines, and am always happy to keep things tidy by doing quick chores like vacuuming up pet hair before you get back.

About: I love dogs (cats, too). Dogs want love, praise and attention and I know they want to be good.... they just need to be given the chance and the right cues to correct behavior. I have my own dogs and I round up strays and fosters to set them up with their forever homes. I am also a homeowner and I know what it feels like to invite a guest worker (pet sitter) into your home and have them not respect or take care of things (pet and home) the way they promised. I promise to look after your pet and your home and I can be your eyes and ears if something is up that you need to know about. I am a full time pet carer. I’m responsible, flexible and reliable. I can usually agree to same day assignments for walking, visiting or overnight care. When I’m with your dogs, I’m interacting with them, even if we’re just hanging out. Pets needs always come first! Some dogs don’t need walking… they might need a long visit with play. Sometimes they need belly rubs and snuggles. I also provide fresh water every visit so they’re never out.
About: From an early age, I lived with cats. Some people aren't "cat people"; I'm the opposite. Whether the shy type or the snuggle muffin, I adore cats. Recently rescued two ferals who are now (6 years later) the sweetest, happiest love bugs. I'll enjoy every moment with your cats. And they'll quickly look forward to my visits. I feel bad for people who aren't cat people. They're missing out!
“Audrey did an awesome job watching my cats, I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. My cats loved Audrey back, as evidenced by pics of them crawling all over Audrey, lol! The litter box was clean, and they were fed and happy when I got home too, just like I was hoping. Audrey was kind and pleasant to be in contact with.”
“Tracy came over for a drop-in meet and greet as part of transitioning my dog, who has special needs and generalized anxiety around new people, dogs, and environments. She has strong dog instincts cultivated over a lifetime of personal and professional experience with dogs. Just as importantly, she was very receptive to listening to my dog’s specific needs. She asked thoughtful questions and followed guidance well, which I really appreciated. My normally shy dog warmed up to her quickly, which says a lot. Tracy was calm, respectful, and patient, and I feel confident continuing to work with her as we build out more support for my dog so I can travel with peace of mind.”
About: Only taking walking or housesitting clients in DIXON, DAVIS, and VACAVILLE! I’ve always had a pet since I was 4 and I love animals. I currently have 3 dogs that I care for and love taking them on walks to parks. When it comes to your pets I will make sure everything they need will be taken care of, and send plenty of pics of them if you’d like! I currently work part-time, and currently looking to expand my streams of income to save up for my own place one day. My schedule is flexible and I will make whatever work! You tell me the fur babies' routine and schedule and that’s what we’re doing as best as I can—regarding my schedule + distance. If they take vitamins/pills in the morning, or 3x a day, just let me know, I’ve done it all! I understand pets can be extra on edge when their parents are away, so keeping things how they’re used to is important to me to help them feel as comfortable as possible.
About: What sets me apart as a cat sitter is my lifelong, hands-on experience with cats in both multi-cat and individual home environments. Growing up in a household with nine cats gave me a strong understanding of different feline personalities, routines, and behaviors. I also currently care for my own 3-year-old cat, which has deepened my experience with daily care, health awareness, and enrichment. I’m especially attentive to each cat’s unique personality and comfort level, whether they’re shy, playful, independent, or social. I prioritize maintaining their normal routine, keeping litter boxes clean, and ensuring they feel safe and relaxed while their owner is away. I’m also highly communicative and provide updates so you always know how your cat is doing. My goal is to create a calm, stress-free experience for both cats and their owners, treating every cat as if they were my own.
About: I have always taken care of pets since I was little ranging from cats and dogs to reptiles to any pet not a person that needed to take care of that near me. I only have two in person classes on Tuesdays and Thursdays and other than that I am free no other job except school right now :) I have always taken care of my family’s pet, especially my sisters which her house consist of a golden retriever and a poodle and a Chihuahua. The poodle is very very old and she is an elderly dog, so she’s blind and has arthritis and going to deaf, so I was always used to cleaning up and guided her to the restroom or her food and still focusing on the other pets, giving everyone the proper love and care at the exact same time.
About: Though I didn’t grow up with cats, I have multiple friends and neighbors whose cats I love to play with and pet sit. My apartment is comfortable and safe for indoor and outdoor cats, so whatever your pet needs I will be able to provide it!

“Best Rover pet sitter I’ve used! Sherry has an ideal setup for small dogs with hardwood in the house and a fenced in backyard. Incredibly responsive via text and Rover app. I was visiting Vacaville and did two days of daycare on very short notice so I could go shopping. If I lived closer she would be my go-to pet sitter!”
“Giezell watched Chloe while we attended wedding events for our son on two separate days. Getting videos and pics showing how well Chloe was doing was such a relief since we had never left her before. Giezell was very accommodating when we had to ask if Chloe could be picked up a little later than expected. We will definitely be asking Giezell to watch our sweet girl again!”

About: I'm a very responsible pet parent to my own senior Maltese. I can provide medication as necessary since I'm aware of the medical needs of my own. Not working at the moment and want to spend time with my dog and other babies as much as I am able to. I would treat your dogs as much as I care for my own. I have a fenced yard and parks in the area. This is a very dog friendly community. Regular potty breaks and walks are the norm for my house.

“My dogs have stayed here several times and they look forward to spending time with Shawna and her husband. My three year old lab gets so excited when we pull up in front of the house. I feel lucky to have a place my dogs can go and feel safe and comfortable when they can't be with me.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was a teenager. I grew up in a household that always had multiple pets (fish, dogs, hamsters) and have since expanded my love for animals by dog sitting and cat sitting for friends and family in the neighborhood. I am offering dog walking, sitting and other pet care services for whatever furry friend you need! I’m excited to get started with Rover and build community connections in Davis! I am currently a UC Davis student looking for a part-time way to make extra money and spend more time outside and with animals! I love going on long walks and hanging out at the dog park, or just entertaining your pet at home. I live in an apartment with an unfenced yard. When I dog sit for friends, I make sure to give regular potty breaks every couple of hours and maintain an environment that is safe and comforting for your pet.
“Abbey got to go for a ride, take a walk, and got the house all to herself! Although she tolerates other dogs, she enjoys being the one and only! Thank you Jason for caring for and watching over our girl.♥️”
“Camille is amazing! From our meet and greet to my golden retrievers stay with her, she was so friendly and knowledgeable. It’s rare I trust anyone with my fur baby, but she made me feel so comfortable and sent me pictures of my pup and updates frequently. Would def have her watch my pup again! Thank youuuu!!”
About: Hello, my name is Esmerilda. I graduated from UC Davis with a B.S. in Wildlife, Fish, and Conservation Biology and am in search of dog walking, training, bathing, and pet sitting positions to help me pay off student loans. Aspiring veterinarians usually know they have a special gift with animals as a child, as I discovered at the age of 7. Thus, I have been involved in the husbandry of my own dogs, cats, and exotic animals the majority of my life! Due to my extensive experience as a lab animal technician, kennel attendant, and shelter volunteer, I have 6 years of professional experience in animal husbandry. During the year of the notorious Camp Fire, I worked as a veterinary assistant at the UC Davis Veterinary Medicine Teaching Hospital to 4th year veterinary students with disabilities during their clinical year. As their "right hand woman", I provided various accommodations for physical and intellectual limitations in order to facilitate their success. I was directly involved with the treatment of animal patients in ophthalmology, cardiology, community practice, community surgery, companion avian and pet exotics, dentistry, dermatology, internal medicine, neurology, shelter medicine & surgery, anesthesia, behavior, and nutrition. For several years, I also gained technical skills as a veterinary assistant in small veterinary hospitals and for the nonprofit Mercer Clinic for the Pets of the Homeless. Thus, I am exceptionally knowledgeable in the field of veterinary medicine. At the client's request, I also offer one on one obedience training on walks, baths, nail trimming, syringe feeding, and transportation to veterinary appointments for an additional charge (not listed). I have committed my 'gap year' before veterinary school to providing my sevices on Rover- ensuring your pet receives the highest quality of care and love while you are away. Please do not hesitate in contacting me so I may meet my new fur (or scaled or feathered) buddy. Thank you for your time and consideration :) ANIMALS ARE MY LIFE. NO, SERIOUSLY! I work full time an animal caretaker unless my calendar is marked as I'm unavailable because I scheduled a vacation to combat caretaker fatigue, I am available, 24 (like Kobe) hours , 7 days a week , rain and shine ! 🌞 I am an observant, vigilant pet owner myself and strive to go above and beyond in maintaining a secure and clean environment for your animal(s) as well. I have experience adhering to strict animal protocols within both veterinary hospital and laboratory settings, thus applying these skills as your animal caretake/technician within your home. Please notify me if your pet is an escape artist, uses a crate, what your boundaries are (i.e. furniture or specific areas off-limits), if your pet uses an e-collar or GPS collar, and the like! As always, your dog gets my full attention—walks are always private and limited to dogs from the same household.
“Haruka and Daniel were wonderful, and incredibly kind! My dog Sybil had a little trouble with some anxiety after I left and they did a great job keeping her comfortable despite it and keeping me updated. By the time I got there she was right at home and ready to play! We'd definitely love to book again next time!”

“Everything went really well, once for the meet & greet, and again for the stay. Elliot was very calm and comfortable when approaching Mazi and introducing his fur-babies. When I got her back from the stay, she was tired (which to me speaks to an active day, which I really appreciate after mine). Definitely would use again if he'd have me.”

“I had a great experience with Jackson walking my dog, Maggy. He was reliable, communicative, and sensitive to her needs—especially as a senior dog. It gave me real peace of mind knowing she was in such caring hands during the day. I look forward to booking him again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog walker.”

I am reliable, attentive, and comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, and providing plenty of affection to help pets feel at ease. Pet care fits well into my routine. I am completely free on Mondays. I work from home Wednesday and Friday, and am available after 430pm on Tuesdays and Thursdays, as well as on all day weekends. I enjoy spending time with animals and can provide dependable care, including walks, feeding, playtime, potty breaks, and lots of attention. I treat every pet as if they were my own and follow all instructions provided by the owner. I prioritize safety, maintain a clean environment, ensure pets have fresh water, meals, exercise, and attention, and provide updates so owners can feel confident their pets are well cared for while away.
About: I love dogs (cats, too). Dogs want love, praise and attention and I know they want to be good.... they just need to be given the chance and the right cues to correct behavior. I have my own dogs and I round up strays and fosters to set them up with their forever homes. I am also a homeowner and I know what it feels like to invite a guest worker (pet sitter) into your home and have them not respect or take care of things (pet and home) the way they promised. I promise to look after your pet and your home and I can be your eyes and ears if something is up that you need to know about. I am a full time pet carer. I’m responsible, flexible and reliable. I can usually agree to same day assignments for walking, visiting or overnight care. When I’m with your dogs, I’m interacting with them, even if we’re just hanging out. Pets needs always come first! Some dogs don’t need walking… they might need a long visit with play. Sometimes they need belly rubs and snuggles. I also provide fresh water every visit so they’re never out.
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life including Labs, Golden Retriever, Akita, and currently a Shiba Inu! I am familiar with different personalities and traits of different breeds. I am comfortable with big and small pets! I currently work remotely, so I have a flexible schedule to help with your pet. I am excited to help care for your furry family member. I am happy to care for your pet based on your specific instructions. I am always available to care for your animal at your home.
About: I have been dog-sitting since I was a child. Anytime my neighbors went out of town, they would ask me to take care of their dogs such as feeding them, playing with them, and taking them outside. One of them was a K-9. Since then I have volunteered at my local animal shelter, and I currently work with children who developmental disabilities such as autism. I’m currently working: Monday 3PM-6PM Tuesday 9AM-1PM, 3PM-6PM Thursday 9AM-1PM, 3PM-6PM Friday 2PM-5PM Saturday 9AM-12PM Any time not listed above is my availability. I have plenty of experience with dogs. I currently don’t have any of my own due to my household not allowing pets, but I grew up dog-sitting for my neighbors and have since volunteered at my local animal shelter.
About: I'm a very responsible pet parent to my own senior Maltese. I can provide medication as necessary since I'm aware of the medical needs of my own. Not working at the moment and want to spend time with my dog and other babies as much as I am able to. I would treat your dogs as much as I care for my own. I have a fenced yard and parks in the area. This is a very dog friendly community. Regular potty breaks and walks are the norm for my house.
About: I’ve always loved animals and have grown up with dogs in my home. For the past 8 years, I’ve also had a cat who has taught me so much about patience, care, and the unique bond we share with our pets. Between my own pets and caring for friends’ cats and dogs, I’ve gained experience with different personalities, ages, and needs. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or quiet companionship, I truly enjoy making pets feel safe, happy, and loved. Pet care is naturally part of my daily life since I’ve always had animals at home. I love starting and ending the day with walks, playtime, or cuddle sessions. Because I currently have a very flexible schedule, I can easily fit in feeding, exercise, and companionship throughout the day, making sure pets feel loved and cared for just like they would with their own family. In my home or in a client’s home, I focus on making pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I follow the routines they’re used to feeding schedules, walks, playtime, or quiet companionship so they feel at ease. I give lots of attention, cuddles, and exercise when needed, and I’m always careful to keep their environment clean, calm, and stress-free. Every pet is unique, and I make sure to adjust to their needs so they feel cared.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was a teenager. I grew up in a household that always had multiple pets (fish, dogs, hamsters) and have since expanded my love for animals by dog sitting and cat sitting for friends and family in the neighborhood. I am offering dog walking, sitting and other pet care services for whatever furry friend you need! I’m excited to get started with Rover and build community connections in Davis! I am currently a UC Davis student looking for a part-time way to make extra money and spend more time outside and with animals! I love going on long walks and hanging out at the dog park, or just entertaining your pet at home. I live in an apartment with an unfenced yard. When I dog sit for friends, I make sure to give regular potty breaks every couple of hours and maintain an environment that is safe and comforting for your pet.
About: Hi! I'm Caroline, and I'm currently a sophomore at UC Santa Barbara who will be home in Davis over the summer! I've grown up with 2 dogs, but I have experience caring for pets of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels. Whether your dog loves long walks, energetic playtime, or just to relax, I’m happy to match their vibe and make them feel safe and cared for. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I’ll always keep you updated with photos and messages. I’m also comfortable following specific routines, administering basic medications, and handling multiple pets. My goal is to make your pet feel at home, even when you’re away :) I’d love to meet you and your pet, please feel free to reach out with any questions! As a college student, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate quality time to pet care. I’m typically available for morning and evening visits and I can accommodate weekend bookings as well. I do my best to keep my calendar up to date and am happy to work around your pet’s routine whenever possible. Whether you need regular walks, check-ins, or extra playtime, please feel free to reach out—I’ll always try to make it work! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I take the time to understand each pet’s personality and routine so they feel secure and cared for at all times. I always follow owner instructions closely, and will update you daily. I create a calm, positive environment where pets can feel relaxed and at ease. During walks and visits, I stay mindful of surroundings to ensure your pet stays safe. I’m also extremely respectful of your home and your pet's space, and will treat it with the same care and responsibility as my own :)
About: What sets me apart as a pet sitter is my lifelong, hands-on experience with animals in both multi-pet and individual home environments. Growing up in a household with nine cats gave me a strong understanding of different feline personalities, routines, and behaviors. I currently care for my own 3-year-old cat, which has further deepened my experience with daily care, health awareness, and enrichment. In addition to cat care, I also have experience with dogs through pet sitting. As a teenager, I regularly watched my neighbor’s dogs, and I have also pet sat and house sat for family members, caring for both cats and dogs. I’ve also provided overnight care, which taught me how to maintain routines, ensure comfort through the night, and handle responsibilities independently while owners are away. I’m especially attentive to each animal’s unique personality and needs, whether they’re shy, energetic, independent, or social. I prioritize keeping their routines consistent, maintaining clean and comfortable environments, and making sure they feel safe and secure while their owners are gone. I’m also highly communicative and provide regular updates so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is to create a calm, stress-free experience for both pets and owners, treating every animal as if they were my own. Pet care fits well into my weekly routine, and I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide consistent care throughout the week. During my summer session, I’m available after 2:00 PM on Mondays and Wednesdays, before noon and after 6:00 PM on Tuesdays and Fridays, 11:45 AM–3:00 PM and after 6:00 PM on Thursdays, and I have full availability on Saturdays and Sundays. This flexibility allows me to accommodate morning, midday, evening, and overnight care as needed. I am also available and willing to stay overnight when needed to ensure pets are comfortable and cared for at all times. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize following all instructions closely to maintain their normal routine and comfort. I make sure pets are fed on schedule, have fresh water, clean litter boxes or outdoor breaks, and receive attention, play, and care based on their needs. I respect the client’s home, keep everything clean and secure, and ensure doors, gates, and safety measures are always properly handled. I also provide regular updates so owners feel reassured and connected while they’re away.

About: I’ve always loved animals of all kinds. Insects, reptiles, rats, especially cats and dogs. I’ve also volunteered at the ASPCA for a year! I have experience with almost all animals, and I’d love to help take care of yours! I take care of two pets of my own, but currently don’t have a stable job. My days are open! Might as well do what I love and get payed for it. XD I have a calm smaller dog, and a cat who LOVES dogs (she’s strange I know). I live right next to a huge park and walking trail.
About: I have been walking dogs and taking care of them for a long time now. I work with dogs and every workday I walk around 15 dogs and I love it. I like seeing them excited and ready to explore and have fun on a walk. I always make sure they are safe and comfortable and have fun. I am currently working part time with dogs. So I’m free a lot of the time for any days of the week. Some weekends I am busy but that’s nothing we can’t talk about and figure out. In my home I have two cats and I feed them give them water and play with them daily and make sure they have fun and feel comfortable.
About: I have always taken care of pets since I was little ranging from cats and dogs to reptiles to any pet not a person that needed to take care of that near me. I only have two in person classes on Tuesdays and Thursdays and other than that I am free no other job except school right now :) I have always taken care of my family’s pet, especially my sisters which her house consist of a golden retriever and a poodle and a Chihuahua. The poodle is very very old and she is an elderly dog, so she’s blind and has arthritis and going to deaf, so I was always used to cleaning up and guided her to the restroom or her food and still focusing on the other pets, giving everyone the proper love and care at the exact same time.

“Randi took great care of our pup. Tons of pictures and updates (which were appreciated). Got to play with other dogs and be “part of the family” which is exactly what we wanted. Will definitely book again!”
“Lupe was absolutely wonderful with our service dog. She accepted him at the last minute during the holidays, which was truly a godsend for me since he’s always by my side. She understood that he’s a bit spoiled and treated him with so much care and kindness. She even sent us pictures and videos, which really eased my mind. I will definitely be recommending her. I can’t thank her enough.”
“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!”
“Edward had another wonderful stay with Jessie. He gets so excited when he sees her. He’s so much happier staying with her than at a boarding kennel and she takes great care of him.”
“Charlie had a great time and was very tired coming home after 3 days. It’s so nice to know he is somewhere he enjoys instead of being stuck at home missing us. Looking forward to booking again!”
“Anthony is top-notch! He took great care of our King Charles Cavalier for four days. Anthony sent lots of pictures and videos of our dog playing with his dog, Kai. He took our dog on many walks to the local park and played fetch with the dogs his backyard. Anthony was very flexible with pickup/drop off times and had everything ready to go when it was time to take our dog home. I highly recommend Anthony for dog boarding and we will be rebooking with him in a few weeks.”
“Our pack was in great hands with Roy. Two of our three dogs are seniors and he did an excellent job of meeting their needs. We received updates and pictures frequently while we were on our trip, which we loved. They had plenty of exercise and attention. We definitely came home to happy dogs. Roy is the BEST pet sitter!! His communication, attention to detail and professionalism alleviated any concerns we had about leaving our dogs while were away.”
About: Hi! I am a teacher and dog lover! We have a large mix breed dog who loves to play and lounge. I used to volunteer at the senior dog rescue in San Francisco, Muttville and I have worked with dogs of all ages. I have week nights and weekends available to care for your animal. I am flexible when it comes to the care your indivisible pet needs. I am open to watching dogs at my house. We have a large, safe yard and they are allowed on furniture with their own blanket. If your dog does not do well with other dogs (young dogs), or they would be more comfortable in your home, I can do house visits.
“Shanna was great at watching my pup Navi this weekend! I appreciate her willingness to let Navi and I have a meet-and-greet ahead of our stay also, which helped me know my puppy would be in good hands. I will happily let Navi stay with Shanna again the next time I head out of town.”
“Brandee's care and concern for my fur-kid was exceptional. She's very likable and an excellent communicator. She's clearly integrated Rover into her household's every day happenings and my dog confidently made himself right at home with her and her family. Dropping a dog off at Brandee's is like taking a kid to a favorite cousin's house for the week -all play and no home sick blues.”
“They were so accommodating on such short notice. Gave Bodie the quiet space she needed on the final leg of her spay recovery. Received many updates along with photos. I don't think she wanted to leave when it was time to pick her up. Wonderful people and will definitely keep Marie & James in mind for next time. <3”
About: We’re experienced Rover users ourselves, so we understand how important it is to find someone you truly trust with your pet. After recently losing our German Shepherd, Ace, due to old age, we’ve been missing the joy of having more dogs around, and our lab, Indie, would love a playmate. We have a home with a secure yard and are excited to offer a safe, loving environment for dogs while their owners travel or need extra support. We treat every dog like family, with plenty of attention, playtime, and care tailored to their needs. Whether your pup is energetic or prefers a slower pace, we’ll make sure they feel comfortable, happy, and at home. For everyone’s safety and happiness, dogs must get along well with Indie, and we require a meet-and-greet before booking. I am a nurse in Davis and my wife works from home which allows for flexibility throughout the day. We stay pretty scheduled but have the availability to cater to our dogs needs! We have a fully fenced yard with a friendly lab. We love being outside and going for walks in west Davis. Since we used to have 2 dogs we are familiar with leash safety and navigating other dogs on walks.
“John was absolutely fantastic! He took exceptional care of our two German Shepherds while we were away and kept us updated with photos and messages throughout their stay. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were in such caring and capable hands—we will gladly book with him again.”
“Kirsten was great!! She was kind and communicative by sending me pics/vids with updates and was very reassuring as it was my first time having my boy away from home. I would definitely trust her to watch him again, 10/10”
“Robert was great! Olive had a great time and was well taken care of. He sent us updates and photos, and we felt totally comfortable leaving Olive at his beautiful home. I’d recommend Robert to anyone that wants their dog to have some great 1-on-1 attention.”
“Valerie was wonderful! She took the time to check-in, send photos, and was very patient with our two dogs. It was wonderful to know that not only our dogs were safe, but they were having a blast on their own personal vacation on the farm! I would certainly recommend.”
“Brandon watched our two dogs for almost a week while we went out of town. He was fantastic! Super communicative the entire time and made them feel right at home. It gave us such peace of mind knowing they were in good hands and having a little vacation themselves! Thank you for everything Brandon!”
