“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!!”
“Beyond fantastic! Kasandra kept our cocker while we were away for 2 weeks. Not only was he very well cared for—he was actually better than when we left him! He is way calmer and has better manners than he had at drop off. Kasandra gave me some pointers that will help me a lot with him at home. This gal is a dog whisperer!! I could not be more grateful. Thank you Kasandra!”
“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”
“Marya had our two young Frenchies overnight for their first time away from home. She sent us pictures and a video of them settling in and getting acquainted with her larger dog. She was very thoughtful in handling our little ones and communicated really well with us. We are planning to use her for a longer trip in just a few weeks.”
“Erica was amazing with my pup! She was patient and understanding. She was very flexible with me and Wren and I felt very comfortable with her the first time we met! I will definitely be booking with her again!!”
“My dog was very comfortable at Julissas house and I appreciated the updates throughout the day. I felt at ease leaving him there and will be booking with her again in the future! ?”
“We had a wonderful experience with Martha May while she boarded our dog, Loki. From the moment we connected, Martha was caring, kind, and incredibly communicative throughout his stay. She provided regular updates and thoughtful feedback, which gave us peace of mind and helped us better understand Loki's needs for future boarding visits. It was clear that Martha May genuinely cared about Loki's comfort and well-being, and he was well cared for during his time with her. Her professionalism, attention to detail, and willingness to share helpful observations made the experience exceptional. I highly recommend Martha May to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive dog sitter. We would be happy to book with her again in the future!”
“Achara took care of my little man for a couple days when I went out of town. She sent me updates throughout his stay, with pictures. It seemed like he had a great stay with her family and their dogs. I appreciate everything Achara did for me and the little pup!”
“Pontida took my chrissy in last moment, for a fair price, and with lots of love. She sent pictures with updates, letting me know that chrissy was ok and doing well. Chrissy had a great time and I could not have asked for a better pet sitter.”
“I can't say enough about how positive the experience was. Melissa and her family are super sweet and caring. We arranged to have our dogs meet in advance, which was great, and Melissa took the time to make that happen. My dog took some time to socialize with their other dogs, but Melissa was accommodating and helpful to make sure that process went smoothly. She also sent pictures and video while we were away. Highly recommend!”
“Jessie has become Edward’s home away from home. He’s very comfortable with her and always happy to see her. She’s very observant about changes in his behavior and is very caring and patient with him. He’s so much happier staying with her than in a boarding kennel.”
“Annie was great with my nervous dog. Annie responded quickly to my messages as we prepared for my dog's stay with her, and sent me pictures while my dog was in her care.”
“Kathleen took great care of my cat while I was away. She kept me updated on her and made sure to spend lots of time with her. Definitely will be booking with Kathleen next time I’m away!”
“I can’t recommend Kazue enough! She takes only one dog (or one family) at a time, which is a huge plus for a dog like Butter who doesn’t do well around other pets/dogs. Kazue updated me with photos and videos at least 3 times a day, which gave me so much peace of mind. I’ll definitely have her board Butter again. If you’re looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter, Kazue is the one!”
“Roy was incredible. 5 stars isn't enough! I panicked when our dog sitter cancelled the morning we were supposed to leave for our family vacation but luckily we found Roy. Our dog can be a bit of a handful. This was our first time going away and leaving our dog with someone so I was a little nervous but I would leave our dog with Roy any day. I can't even put into words our gratitude.”
“This was my 1st time booking care for my pet cat. We are having issues with our AC and when I have to be at work and it's 107°, cat needed safe place indoors. Grisel gave me peace of mind from the initial inquiry (daycare and potential overnight boarding) until the last moment saying our goodbyes. I was nervous being new, but she was completely professional, respectful and patient. her helpful relative was also so attentive to my shy babe. Communication was 100% as was the set up and the care. Obviously would return and would recommend!”
“Erin was wonderful and was incredibly responsive, even before the booking began! She sent a daily picture and update of my pet, and was super accommodating as well. :) he had a blast!”
About: I have lived with pets all my life and have over 6 years of professional experience in all kinds of animals (including but not limited to) birds, reptiles, and amphibians. I have 1 green cheek conure, 1 desert tortoise, 2 cats, and 1 dog myself. I can medicate your animals, but also help with training, exercise, grooming, and other enriching or basic husbandry care. I’ve recently moved to Woodland to help my sister with her kids, which leaves me some time for myself but not enough for a full time job. That’s where pet sitting comes in for me. Animal care is an important thing to me, and I love to know I’m helping your pet live their best life. Most pets will be comfortable in their own home so I can make house trips at least twice a day, perhaps more depending on where you are located respective to me. If you’d like me to take your little one into my own home, we can talk about it and go from there :)

About: My name is Hannah and I am a lifelong cat lover. I had cat (s) growing up since I was old enough to remember, and I’ve always been smitten by their playful and curious nature. I have a 3 1/2 year-old male gray and white cat of my own that I rescued from an abandoned apartment. We enjoy going on lil walks around my complex and learning new tricks! Well, most pet sitting business is focused primarily on dogs, I feel it’s essential to give cats the same focus. I have had years of experience with all different kinds of cats and have even helped a family friends cat give birth twice.
“Thank you for taking such good care of Bodhi and showing him lots of love, Chelsea. We really appreciated all of the pictures you took and brushing his long hair. We highly recommend you and will rebook in future.”

About: I keep up to date on tips and tricks for dog care! I used to work for Bark Magazine, as well as a pet sitting company based in Davis. I have experience dog sitting all sizes of dog (from Chihuahuas to Danes!) as well as cats! I have experience sitting pups training to become well-behaved and responsible dogs. (behavior, potty, etc.) Message me and we can make sure your fur family is well taken care of! I am working full-time at the moment, so I am available most days during/around midday. I am good to work around your schedule if you have work during the day as well! If the ground/cement it too hot for walks I'll try to get dogs to play or run around in whatever area is available (backyard/larger living space). I usually like to take them to parks, when the weather is nice. I’ve always taken care of pets, whether for my family, neighbors, or clients! I often like taking walks during lunch so walking or visiting pets during that time is very normal for me. I love to use what is available to me! If you have a small yard or a nice walkway near your home, I’ll make the most of it. Same goes for cats, a good toy basket or a nice place to find them is always helpful!

About: Fractious cats, geriatric cats, kittens, picky eaters, you name it, I can take care of it! If your cat needs medicating or other treatments, rest assured I can do that too. Each cat is different and I can cater to whatever you need.
“Steven was a great cat sitter. He kept me well informed about what my cat was up to while I was gone. He noticed a safety issue my cat had created and prevented a potential issue. I would trust him with my kitty again.”
About: I grew up with pets most of my life, and attended dog training classes with my mom starting at a young age. I have had my own pets the last 13 years (dogs, cat and bunny). I have trained and titled one of my dogs in AKC Rally and Waterworks ( something specific to my dogs breed), she is also a grand champion. I would be willing to help train puppies, even though I am not a certified trainer. I can also assist in training to loose leash walk, crate training, etc. Willing to do limited bathing and grooming for an additional fee, to be determined upon request, detailed request needed. I have been grooming my Portuguese water dogs most of my adult life, I have had to maintain a show quality coat. I'm not a professional groomer, but I know my way around clippers and scissors. I was recently laid off, so I have plenty of time to play with your pups. I am available pretty much anytime currently, weekdays and weekends. I treat all animals in my care as my own, with respect and love, whether they need a play buddy or just someone to cuddle, I try to give them what they need
About: I've grown up with all sorts of pets for as long as I can remember. Dogs, cats, birds, reptiles, fish. I have two cats of my own right now (two very spoiled babies). I'm typically free in the evenings Monday through Thursday and completely free on the weekends. But if needed for an emergency I can work from home Monday through Thursday to be there for your pet. I care for pets in the same way that I care for myself, with the upmost care. Dogs get walked at least twice a day, and plenty of love. Cats also get the same, and I have plenty of toys for both cats and dogs.
About: I’ve had a wide variety of animal care experience. I’ve worked in veterinary clinics, grooming salons, boarding facilities and animal shelters. I am qualified to administer medications (including injections), care for special needs and senior pets, as well as provide basic obedience training. I would love to provide your pet with some extra TLC in my free time and while you’re away! Please book promptly to ensure availability. I’ll care for your pets as if they were my own.

About: I have had animals since I was 12. I personally have 4 cats. 3 of the 4 are related. Mama Kitty was a porch kitty and she had a litter of 6 kittens. I raised them all and adopted them out at 12 weeks. I kept two, Archie & Cali. I then foster failed Munchkin. I’ve had 3 dogs in my life and loved them all. I have fostered 2 dogs in the past 3 years and 1 cat. Suffice to say I will always have an animal in the home. I currently work full time from home. I am available at all times during the day and evening. For now my availability will be pretty open to everyone’s needs. I am looking to get out of the house. I had to put my boy down last year and it’s been so hard to enjoy daily walks without him. I am looking to walk dogs and give any cats some extra love. I love all animals. Big and small.

About: I have over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs. I’ve had my own dogs for many years and grew up around dogs, so caring for them has always been a natural part of my life. In addition, I did dog sitting for neighbors and families for several years when I was younger, helping with walking, feeding, and daily care. I have experience with puppies, senior dogs, anxious dogs, and dogs that need patience and clear routines, including leash training and behavioral challenges. Dogs are family members to me, and I always treat them with love, structure, and respect. I’m calm, patient, and attentive, and I make sure every dog feels safe and comfortable in my care. I’m very flexible and spend a lot of time at home. I work partly from home and partly in the office, but my schedule allows me to adapt easily to a dog’s needs. Dogs are rarely left alone, and I can adjust my routine to provide plenty of attention, walks, and companionship. Dogs in my care are treated like family. They are allowed to relax freely in my home, including on the couch. I live with two small dogs, so it’s important that visiting dogs are friendly and comfortable around other dogs. I do not accept aggressive dogs to ensure a safe and peaceful environment for everyone.

“Gaby is the best person for the job! She's interested in dog training, has everything my dog needs, and goes above and beyond to care for her. Also playtime with her dog is the best! I always get Echo back smelling like fall candles and tired out in a good way.”
“Claire is absolutely the best! I have used Claire for both daycare and walks and she takes care of my Riley like she is her own! Claire keeps me posted on how Riley is doing with pictures and notes which eases my mind (crazy dog mom)! She has a great schedule and is always willing to help! She has a great attitude and I recommend Claire to anyone!”

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: I have extensive experience in the veterinary field for over 17years and currently work at veterinary hospitals. I am able to medicate, do injections, and recognize when a pet needs to go to a vet if needed. Yes, your furry loved one will get beyond spoiled with love and treats. If your pet likes outings during the stay we will go walking too. I really want to know what your pet enjoys so I can accommodate them to make them feel more comfortable. I have greater availability for those weekend getaways. I recommend pet sitters like myself over dog boarding facilities as your pet will get the care that you would give. During the stay you can get your pets daily updates and pictures to know your pet is in good hands. I am a huge advocate on low stress environments for pets who stay in my home to make their stay more pleasant. I utilize techniques that the veterinary field has also incorporated. I work from home so your pet is never alone. I customize your pets stay to their needs as each pet has their own personality. I have 2 fenced yards if your pet wants to sunbathe or play with their favorite toys. I can also keep your pet in there own room if they prefer quiet relaxation.
“Ann E. was a great sitter! I had a day-long event for work and reached out to Ann just a few days ahead to take care of my dog, Beau. She was super accommodating and even let me drop my dog off at 6am. Throughout the day, Ann sent me pictures of Beau looking super happy. She also walked him multiple times and gave me written updates on how Beau was doing. Once I picked him up, he was extremely happy and did not exhibit any characteristics of anxiety. I would gladly have Ann take care of my dog again. I would also recommend Ann for any folks looking for a sitter :)”

“Elise is collaborative, communicative, and amazing with my dog! Because she has so much experience with vet medical and dog training stuff, she had totally eased mine and my dog’s transition to a new city. I highly recommend her if you’re looking for more than a just a potty break walk around the block. She really cares about helping these animals become their best selves, and it’s lovely.”
About: I’ve been a dog owner since I was 8 and have experience taking care of puppies, senior dogs and multiple dogs at the same time. Since the start of the pandemic I started to take on more long term sitting seriously. my family has relied on me for pet sitting since I can remember and my friends know they can count on me. I take joy in providing care and affection for animals. I’m a homebody and taking care of your fur baby fits perfectly with my lifestyle.

I live near a couple parks and I can accommodate to what your pet may need. If you have a homebody, or energetic dog I will always ensure they are having fun or chilling.

About: I have always had a dog or some sort of animal around my home since I was a kid but know how difficult it can be to sometimes balance having adult responsibilities and take care of your pets, so I’m here to offer a way that you can have your life AND know your pet is always loved and cared for even when you’re away. I myself have a dog reactive dog and semi-stranger reactive dog so I am comfortable working with reactive dogs! My cat is now in remission but was diabetic so I am comfortable and knowledgeable in caring for diabetic pets. My history with caring for animals has been taking care of my own through a variety of things, and when staying with friends I have assisted them with their 13+ dogs along with other animals. I have worked in the veterinary field for a year at a large specialty GP/ER clinic so am familiar with health care for pets. I am very attentive to animals and am careful to notice anything out of the ordinary so you know your animal is in safe hands. In addition to my own dog and cat, I've also owned & cared for horses for 10+ years and have 4 snakes as well as arachnids if you find yourself needing care for more unique pets! I am a college student so have a slightly more flexible schedule & just have requirements to be able to care for my own dog, cat and horse but am able to add in your pets comfortably!

About: I’ve taken care of six dogs before coming onto Rover. I have experience walking dogs, feeding them, and taking care of dogs of different sizes. I work full-time as a closer at my current job, so I have free-time to be able to take care of animals anytime before 2pm most days. I can do 30 minute visits or longer — whatever you need for your fur baby. I graduated from UC Davis this year, so I’m trying to get hired in the environmental sector to start my career and begin a more typical work schedule. I have an apartment in Woodland where I spend time with my indoor cats. One of my cats is very friendly with people and other cats, but my other cat takes a while to get adjusted to people and other animals, so I only do visits at other people’s places. I treat client’s homes with care, and ensure I do not make any messes or overstep any boundaries.

I go to the dog park almost every morning and have experience handling highly energetic dogs. If you’re looking to socialize your dog more I’d be happy to bring them along. If not I will always respect your preferences and keep your dog comfortable
About: I have three dogs of my own that I watch frequently, take care of, walk, and keep entertained whenever my family is away from home. I'm currently on summer vacation until mid-August, but when I am back at school, I have shorter days, which leaves me enough time afterwards to watch and care for pets. I make sure the pets are fed on time for both breakfast and dinner, I regularly change/refill water bowls, I occasionally take them on walks, and I make sure to give them lots of love and attention.

Outside of that, I’m dependable, responsive, and happy to work around your pet’s routine. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. I understand how important trust is when leaving your pet in someone else’s care, and I take that responsibility seriously. I provide a calm, attentive, and dependable environment where pets can feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I also believe in clear communication, following your pet’s routine closely, and making sure you feel confident and updated while your pet is with me.
About: I have taken care of dogs ever since I was a little girl. Big, small, fluffy, energetic, you name it, i’ve done it. My family is full of animal lovers and I want to spread that love to other people’s animals as well. I have had every variaron of dog you can think of and they’re always my best friend. I do love cats as well, especially if they’re cuddly! My parents gave me responsibility of walking, feeding and bathing our dogs ever since I was 10-11 years old and I’ve loved doing it ever since. I currently work part time and am a student at UCDavis! I am graduating this year so I will have pretty open availability in the summer. My most free days are Wednesday-Thursday, with some availability on the weekends. I currently have a German Shepherd and she is an amazing dog. I try to take her on a a walk at least once a day and save time to play with her in our yard when I get home. When it comes to clients home's, I am a very quick learner and comfortable with doing what care is needed requested by the owners for each pet.
About: I have had animals since I was 12. I personally have 4 cats. 3 of the 4 are related. Mama Kitty was a porch kitty and she had a litter of 6 kittens. I raised them all and adopted them out at 12 weeks. I kept two, Archie & Cali. I then foster failed Munchkin. I’ve had 3 dogs in my life and loved them all. I have fostered 2 dogs in the past 3 years and 1 cat. Suffice to say I will always have an animal in the home. I currently work full time from home. I am available at all times during the day and evening. For now my availability will be pretty open to everyone’s needs. I am looking to get out of the house. I had to put my boy down last year and it’s been so hard to enjoy daily walks without him. I am looking to walk dogs and give any cats some extra love. I love all animals. Big and small.
About: Ive taken care of dogs and other pets since I was about 10 or 11 but Ive lived with dogs my whole life. Ive been relied on by my family to pet sit, so Ive cared for many different dogs. I have experience with puppies, older dogs, and everything in between! Im currently working part-time so my schedule can be a little sporadic but Im always available on weekends and have lots of free time! Always available for walks and drop-ins, if you're looking for boarding Id love to chat to see if our schedules align :) I have a fenced yard and a trained 4 year old dog, she's super friendly but I can easily separate them if needed. Id love to play with your dog, keep them company, and give them all the care they need!
About: I grew up with pets most of my life, and attended dog training classes with my mom starting at a young age. I have had my own pets the last 13 years (dogs, cat and bunny). I have trained and titled one of my dogs in AKC Rally and Waterworks ( something specific to my dogs breed), she is also a grand champion. I would be willing to help train puppies, even though I am not a certified trainer. I can also assist in training to loose leash walk, crate training, etc. Willing to do limited bathing and grooming for an additional fee, to be determined upon request, detailed request needed. I have been grooming my Portuguese water dogs most of my adult life, I have had to maintain a show quality coat. I'm not a professional groomer, but I know my way around clippers and scissors. I was recently laid off, so I have plenty of time to play with your pups. I am available pretty much anytime currently, weekdays and weekends. I treat all animals in my care as my own, with respect and love, whether they need a play buddy or just someone to cuddle, I try to give them what they need

“Beyond fantastic! Kasandra kept our cocker while we were away for 2 weeks. Not only was he very well cared for—he was actually better than when we left him! He is way calmer and has better manners than he had at drop off. Kasandra gave me some pointers that will help me a lot with him at home. This gal is a dog whisperer!! I could not be more grateful. Thank you Kasandra!”
“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”
“Marya had our two young Frenchies overnight for their first time away from home. She sent us pictures and a video of them settling in and getting acquainted with her larger dog. She was very thoughtful in handling our little ones and communicated really well with us. We are planning to use her for a longer trip in just a few weeks.”
“Achara took care of my little man for a couple days when I went out of town. She sent me updates throughout his stay, with pictures. It seemed like he had a great stay with her family and their dogs. I appreciate everything Achara did for me and the little pup!”
“Pontida took my chrissy in last moment, for a fair price, and with lots of love. She sent pictures with updates, letting me know that chrissy was ok and doing well. Chrissy had a great time and I could not have asked for a better pet sitter.”
“Jessie has become Edward’s home away from home. He’s very comfortable with her and always happy to see her. She’s very observant about changes in his behavior and is very caring and patient with him. He’s so much happier staying with her than in a boarding kennel.”
“Annie was great with my nervous dog. Annie responded quickly to my messages as we prepared for my dog's stay with her, and sent me pictures while my dog was in her care.”
“Kathleen took great care of my cat while I was away. She kept me updated on her and made sure to spend lots of time with her. Definitely will be booking with Kathleen next time I’m away!”
“Roy was incredible. 5 stars isn't enough! I panicked when our dog sitter cancelled the morning we were supposed to leave for our family vacation but luckily we found Roy. Our dog can be a bit of a handful. This was our first time going away and leaving our dog with someone so I was a little nervous but I would leave our dog with Roy any day. I can't even put into words our gratitude.”
“This was my 1st time booking care for my pet cat. We are having issues with our AC and when I have to be at work and it's 107°, cat needed safe place indoors. Grisel gave me peace of mind from the initial inquiry (daycare and potential overnight boarding) until the last moment saying our goodbyes. I was nervous being new, but she was completely professional, respectful and patient. her helpful relative was also so attentive to my shy babe. Communication was 100% as was the set up and the care. Obviously would return and would recommend!”
About: I have lived with pets all my life and have over 6 years of professional experience in all kinds of animals (including but not limited to) birds, reptiles, and amphibians. I have 1 green cheek conure, 1 desert tortoise, 2 cats, and 1 dog myself. I can medicate your animals, but also help with training, exercise, grooming, and other enriching or basic husbandry care. I’ve recently moved to Woodland to help my sister with her kids, which leaves me some time for myself but not enough for a full time job. That’s where pet sitting comes in for me. Animal care is an important thing to me, and I love to know I’m helping your pet live their best life. Most pets will be comfortable in their own home so I can make house trips at least twice a day, perhaps more depending on where you are located respective to me. If you’d like me to take your little one into my own home, we can talk about it and go from there :)
“Reginay is an amazing person!! She looked after my dog very well and she was able to share a lot of pictures and kept me up to date on how my dog was doing through the whole booking. I would highly recommend her to anyone using this app. She goes above and beyond for our pets!!!”
“While I was away, Sade had excellent communication with me the entire time. She sent pictures and updates regularly, which I really appreciated. She also followed the meal plan I provided perfectly and took great care of Peanut. I would definitely highly recommend Sade to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter, and I will absolutely be using her again in the very near future!”
“Booking our pups stay with Chelsi was the best. Chelsi went above and beyond to cater to Gracie’s needs and made sure she was comfortable & followed her routine. She shared photos and videos with us constantly & we were able to feel so comforted seeing our Gracie girl so happy and so loved. 10/10 experience and we cannot wait to book with Chelsi again!”
“Mir was great and took such good care of our dog. She was very communicative on a daily basis and took him on walks every day we were gone. She sent photos to us to make the time away less stressful. Would highly recommend and will definitely rebook with her in the future. Great experience”
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.
“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!”
“Brandee was amazing with my labradoodle. He had lots of time outside and play with other dogs. I loved getting photos and updates every afternoon. Will definitely rebook for the next time!”
