“It was our first time utilizing anyone to board our dog. we were pretty nervous but the very first day our dog was with her, she sent photos! I was not able to drop her off so I didn't get to go over the details but I wanted to and did not realize that my boyfriend had left several things out. That being said after multiple text messages she totally got a feeling for our dog and took it from there. While we were gone I received videos and photos and updates. When he picked her up he said he could tell she had a lot of fun. I was very impressed and would definitely recommend and re-book her for anytime we need someone to watch our dog. When we adopted her she was very skittish and Kelsey made her feel at ease and myself as well! Thank you so much!!!”

“Nicole was awesome and Bailey had a fantastic time. She treated Bailey like she was her own dog and I couldn’t ask for more sent many pictures and updates and just love the fact that I have somebody that I can go to if I have to go out of town I highly recommend her.”


“First I must say I do not like boarding my baby Gracie at all. I needed to find some way I could board my Gracie that was not a kennel so I could be confident my baby would be well taken care of so I could enjoy my travel. Found Rover.com and decided to give it a try. Started searching the sitters & I found Irvin & Susan. The reviews were great so decided to do a meet and greet. Everything about the atmosphere was great as was Susan. Booked a short stay to see how it worked out. I really appreciated the daily updates and pictures of how Gracie was doing. When I picked up Gracie she was her happy self & when we got home there was no sulking as there has been with a kennel. Fortunately, Irvin & Susan enjoyed by Gracie too. I look forward to using Irvin & Susan again next year when I go on my cruise and be able to enjoy my time knowing Gracie will be well taken care of. Thank You Irvin & Susan.”

“I was nervous having to use this app for my dogs to stay the night at a strangers house. My original plans fell through. Hailey not only accommodated my last minute plans so I could still go on my trip, I completely messed up the booking and she had no clue problems accommodating this as well. She gave me updates throughout the visit. I was so happy to hear my dogs got along great with her dogs and kids. She used her best judgement on when she introduced the dogs which all I wanted was for her to be comfortable. I did tell her my dogs go to daycare 4 days a week so I know my dogs are well behaved but you still never know. I will definitely be using her again. She already said she would be happy to watch my dogs for my vacation in July.”

“Cedric was honestly one of the best sitters I have ever used on Rover! He was so flexible in drop off and pick up, communicated very well and gave my boy Nitro all the attention he needed. He treated my dog like a part of the family. I would 100% use Cedric again without a doubt!”

“Jennifer and family were great!! I think they went above and beyond to care for our dog Chewie while we were out of town for Thanksgiving. I would highly recommend her and will book her again when needed!! Thanks Jennifer💕”

“Yuanyuan was wonderful about sending me pics and videos of my dog while he stayed with her. She was also flexible and agreed to keep him a few extra days when we had a family emergency. I will absolutely be booking with her in the future!”

“Martha was awesome! Very attentive and caring. Kept in contact to let me know how Angel was adjusting. And sent pictures which reassured me that she is definitely an animal lover 🩷🩷🩷”


“I loved leaving my dog with Melissa and I could tell my dog loved being there too! She felt right right at home as soon as she got there, and Melissa sent me photos and videos. I will definitely book her again!”

“Victoria was an absolutely fantastic cat sitter for our cat, Piper! We loved getting her picture updates and every photo showed Piper looking happy and completely comfortable. We truly appreciate the wonderful care she provided, and it gave us so much peace of mind knowing Piper was safe and well-cared for while we were on vacation. Highly recommend!”

“Kazue took such great care of my two mini goldendoodles. She sent me updates 3 times a day with multiple pictures. From the meet and greet and drop off it was obvious that she is very kind and loves animals. She gets down on their level and pets them and gives them love an attention. It felt very good to leave them with someone who cared while we went on vacation. She also only takes one pet family at a time which means your pet is getting her full attention and love. She also took them on a daily walk around her beautiful neighborhood. I would definitely bring them back to Kazue for any future boarding/sitting needs. Highly recommend.”

“Jacqueline is the best. She’s so loving and caring with my dog.. My dog had the best time. She got to go on walks and play so much. I also got videos with my dog playing. It was great. I am a repeat customer for sure.”


“Our 1.5 yr old shy cattle dog stayed with Grant for a week. He was patient and kind, and let her come out of her shell on her own time. And by the third day she was running around outside playing with a doggie friend. He send picture throughout the stay so we could see she was fine with helped us relax for our vacation!”

“So glad Poulette and Jennifer could accommodate our dogs who are reactive but did very well staying with them. We got updates and appreciated the great communication. Dogs were happy with the outdoor time too!”

“Our dogs stay with Achara went so smoothly! It was their first time overnight and a long extended stay so I was initially nervous to leave them for that long, but Achara’s communication and care were excellent all the way through! Our young one looked to be having so much fun running and playing with Achara’s puppy and our older one looked very happy and comfortable doing her own thing 🥰 We were overall very happy and not nervous once we saw how happy the dogs were in the daily photos and videos that were sent to us. Thanks Achara for a great experience! We’ll definitely be back again!”

About: I have been a devoted cat parent and advocate for over 16 years. Currently, I am a proud mom to two Tabbies who are my world, but my experience goes far beyond my own home. Over the years, I have personally owned four cats and have successfully rescued and rehomed over 20 street cats. My history with rescue work means I am highly comfortable with all feline personalities, including those who are shy, anxious, or need a patient hand. Whether it's playtime, feeding, or just providing a calm presence, I treat every cat with the same love and attention I give my own. I understand the nuances of cat behavior and am committed to keeping your feline friends safe, happy, and well-cared for while you’re away.

About: I’ve always loved cats and they hold a special place in my heart. Right now I have a black cat Luna who is a menace but I love her anyway. My family has always had at least one cat running around the house and I wouldn’t have it any other way.

About: I’ve spent many years caring for cats of all personalities, from shy kittens to independent seniors. I love spending time with cats and giving them the preferred attention. What sets me apart from others my attention to the little things that make them comfortable. I’m experienced in administering medications when needed, and I don’t mind getting my hands dirty to keep litter boxes fresh and clean because I know how important a clean space is for a happy cat. I’m patient, observant, and always ready to give each cat the individual care and affection they deserve.
About: I have been around all different types of animals my whole life. I have bottle feed newborn puppies and nursed them to adults. I also have a senior dog myself whom is my best friend. Getting to work with a different variety of animals is what I think sets me apart. I am available in the mornings everyday from 6 am to 7:30 am and in the afternoons everyday starting from 3:30-6pm. Weekends I am fully available. I have grown up with different sized dogs, my first two dogs have always been inside dogs and my two big dogs have always been outside dogs. They are walked and played with daily, and are feed twice a day. For a clients home I will follow every request the client has for there pet without question.

About: I think that cats just might be humans in a little furry disguises. Cats talk to you all day long with their body language. Clearly they will let you know what they want, when they want it and also what they don’t want. Ever have a cat look at you and walk away, L O L. Boss move.
About: I’ve taken care of any kind of animal you can name. I’ve worked/volunteered at recuses, breeders, vet offices, and my family has raised and raced standardbred horses since I was born. I also pet/house sit often. I know cpr/first aid for both dogs, cats, and small animals. I have also been approved for my 501(c)3 non for profit animal rescue license and I’m working towards starting my own animal rescue center. I work part time and I’m going to school to become a phlebotomist. I currently care for my rabbit, cat, 20 chickens, three peacocks, great dane, and five horses. So hard work is not new to me! As someone who leaves things better than I find them, your house, pets, and privacy are are my number one priority. You won’t have to worry about the safety of your pets, state of your home, or any medication/special needs your pet(s) may have or need!
About: I treat every pet like my own, giving them the same love, attention, and care they’d get from you. You can count on me for clear communication, reliability, and genuine care. I’m available full-time on weekends and before 7 a.m. and after 4 p.m. Monday through Friday. Whether it’s early morning walks, evening drop-ins, or weekend stays, I make sure every pet gets plenty of attention, exercise, and care around my schedule. I follow your pet’s usual routine to keep them happy and comfortable. Whether it’s meals, walks, or playtime, I make sure they feel loved, safe, and cared for every step of the way.

We truly appreciated that. We highly recommend Carla for your pet sitting needs and we will definitely be using her services again!”

“Kelsey is amazing! She truly saved the day by caring for my fur baby after a last-minute cancellation. I was in town for a wedding from Southern California and had no one local who could help, so I was incredibly grateful for her support. She was very prompt in responding, and she kept me updated throughout the entire time with great communication. I felt completely at ease knowing my fur baby was in such good hands. Highly recommend!”

“Olivia was great! I highly recommend her! We had a funeral to attend in the Yuba City area and our dog sitter wasn't available..Olivia agreed to watch Bandit with 1 days notice. She sent pictures & gave us updates throughout the afternoon. You could tell she loves dogs! We will definitely use her services again if we ever have a need again for a sitter in that area of California!”

“Cedric was amazing!!! Hands down the best doggy care one could ask for. He consistently kept me updated about what they had done for the day. Thank you again Cedric!!”

About: Dogs have been in my life since i was a little girl. They have always had a huge part in my heart. I’d love to spoil your babies! I’m currently doing online schooling toward becoming a veterinarian, which has given me even more knowledge and understanding of animal care. I’m available every day of the week and can work around your preferred schedule to make sure your pets get consistent, reliable care whenever you need it. In my client’s home, I always focus on keeping pets comfortable, safe, and relaxed in their normal environment by following their usual routines like feeding, walks, playtime, and any special care instructions. I pay close attention to each pet’s behavior so I can quickly notice if something seems off or if they need extra attention or comfort. I also make sure to keep everything clean and respected while I’m there, including food areas, water bowls, and litter boxes, and I always double-check doors and gates for safety. I clean and refresh water daily to ensure pets always have access to fresh, clean drinking water. At my own home, I have 6 acres of property with divided, fenced-in areas where dogs can safely run, play, and enjoy time outside without interfering with each other. Dogs are also welcome inside my home to relax and hang out just like they’re my own, so they get both outdoor space and a cozy indoor environment. I also clean and refresh water daily here as well to make sure every pet stays healthy and hydrated. Whether in my home or yours, my main priority is making sure every pet feels safe, cared for, and comfortable the entire time.

I have a very laid back schedule. I currently work from home Monday - Friday so I can provide pet sitting any time during the week and also do drop ins and walks. Most weekends are the same! I have 1 dog home with me and would be happy to help care for yours. I have a fenced in backyard, so plenty of space to play, and also own a friendly small dog that could use some friends! I also live in a gated community with a lake that provides for great dog walking path. I love to go out and take dogs on walks during the day to break up my work day. I can house your pup however you’d like, including crate at night or let them sleep on the couch if that’s what they prefer :) I’m flexible and have a 2300 sqft house for plenty space for dog sitting!
“Great communication, including with a last minute booking. Daman is very friendly and clearly a dog lover. I felt at ease leaving our little guy with her for the day. Sure sent pics throughout and made pickup/drop off a breeze. Looking forward to working with her again!”

About: My husband and I live in Roseville, CA. Both of us work from home. We have a 4-year-old Goldendoodle at home. He is sweet and will be friend with any dog big or small. I was always fascinated by dogs as a child and that grew into love as an adult. I love all kinds of dogs and care for them as family. We are currently working from home and we take dogs out for walks several times a day and spend time with them in our backyard. During my breaks, I play with them and it works as a stress buster for me as well. We have a large backyard for your dogs to run around with at least a 6' tall all-around fence and a gate with a lock. I am also comfortable with them chilling in the house and my dog usually gives me company while I am attending meetings from home. I can also crate them if you prefer or if they find comfort being in their crates

About: I have loved animals my whole life. And taken care of my own and others for half of my life. I love any animal I care for like my own! I have pet sat for and walked all kinds of animals from cats, dogs, chicken, and even a squirrel. My boyfriend also has a tortoise that I help care for when I go over to his place. This gives me a large range in my experience with different animals. From learning to spot the signes of when they start to feel the need to get aggressive with each other giving me the ability to stop a fight, to giving them love and attention which is something all animals deserve! If taking care of your baby(pet) is something you would allow me to do, I will love, care for, and protect them as if they were my own because it is my goal to insure that both the pet and their owner feels the pet is being well cared for! I can work any day of the week, other than some weekends. And would greatly appreciate a days notice beforehand to prepare and create a plan. I can walk, feed, provide water, pet, play games such as fetch or different games with cats including the Lazer pointer. I will break up any possible alterations by removing the pet from that situation. I can also brush them for dematting their hair or just regular maintenance, and pet the animal to calm them down and insure they feel loved. My gole to insure both the pet and owner feels their baby is well cared for.

“Danielle is amazing! She came over to meet us and our pups before we booked her to answer any questions we had and to ask any she had. She is so flexible and worked with us and our crazy schedule. My pups love her, she is great with them and sends updates and pictures each visit. I am so happy we found her to check on our pups/take them for a walk a couple times a day. I would absolutely recommend Danielle to anybody and will always book her for our pet needs.”
“I couldn't be more pleased with Benjamin's exceptional dog walking services. He walked my beloved dog, Ty Chi, for a week twice a day, and the care and attention he provides are truly outstanding. From the very first walk, it was evident that Benjamin has a genuine passion for dogs. He takes the time to understand my dog's unique needs and personality, ensuring that Ty Chi always feels comfortable and happy. Benjamin's care for details is remarkable—he meticulously follows all instructions regarding Ty Chi's specific needs. He even takes the time to update me with photos and notes after each walk, which I greatly appreciate. Punctuality is another one of Benjamin's strengths. He has never missed a scheduled walk and always arrives on time, ready to give Ty Chi the exercise and attention he needs. This reliability gives me peace of mind, knowing that my dog is in capable and trustworthy hands. What truly sets Benjamin apart is his attention to detail. He notices the little things that make a big difference, such as adjusting the leash to ensure Ty Chi's comfort to make the walk even more enjoyable. His thoughtful approach shows how much he cares about the dogs he walks. I highly recommend Benjamin to anyone in need of a dog walker who is not only professional and reliable but also genuinely cares about the well-being of your pet. Ty Chi and I are incredibly grateful for Benjamin's outstanding service and look forward to many more walks together!”

About: I love caring for animals and I made it my career. I currently work at an emergency veterinary hospital as a veterinary assistant. I know how to handle all kinds of animals and I’m able to care for pets that need regular medical attention. I currently am free Sunday- Wednesday. I work overnights the rest of the week so I will not take Thursday- Saturday because I will need to rest and work those days. I will follow instructions given by the owner and take my time to make sure your baby is comfortable with me. I love to play and snuggle pets so I will make sure they have great company.
About: I have had a variety of animals always in my life. I have cared for dogs, cats, birds, reptiles, fish and rodents. (All of which I've had at some point) I have also worked for a rescue charity for 7+ years which resulted in having learned basic and emergency care, as well as administration of medication. I am retired and looking to fill my time with love and cuddles. I have always enjoyed caring for the variety of animals I have and have had. I love learning all the cute special quirks and loves of every animal I interact with. I am very respectful of other people's space and items - my focus is on the animals in my charge. I can feed, walk, play and generally be a companion to any animal. I also respect the home and treat it even better than my own, ensuring that I leave the home as I found it.
About: I’ve grown up with pets my whole life, and had a dog that was basically our first child after we got married! In total I had five dogs, five cats and two beta fish so our family was always a little bit of a zoo! I love it though, and understand how pets are literally family, and my goal is to make sure your pet feels the love and care they deserve while you’re gone! I currently work from 9am-4pm, but I only work two days every other week, and five days a week the other weeks. In October I’ll switch to working 3am-9am though so I’ll have all day! I do not have any pets currently so my house is totally free! We also have a fenced in yard and several parks nearby that I would be happy to take any dogs to. Within your own home I will ensure I follow all guidelines you set forth to the letter.

“It was our first time utilizing anyone to board our dog. we were pretty nervous but the very first day our dog was with her, she sent photos! I was not able to drop her off so I didn't get to go over the details but I wanted to and did not realize that my boyfriend had left several things out. That being said after multiple text messages she totally got a feeling for our dog and took it from there. While we were gone I received videos and photos and updates. When he picked her up he said he could tell she had a lot of fun. I was very impressed and would definitely recommend and re-book her for anytime we need someone to watch our dog. When we adopted her she was very skittish and Kelsey made her feel at ease and myself as well! Thank you so much!!!”

“Nicole was awesome and Bailey had a fantastic time. She treated Bailey like she was her own dog and I couldn’t ask for more sent many pictures and updates and just love the fact that I have somebody that I can go to if I have to go out of town I highly recommend her.”

“I was nervous having to use this app for my dogs to stay the night at a strangers house. My original plans fell through. Hailey not only accommodated my last minute plans so I could still go on my trip, I completely messed up the booking and she had no clue problems accommodating this as well. She gave me updates throughout the visit. I was so happy to hear my dogs got along great with her dogs and kids. She used her best judgement on when she introduced the dogs which all I wanted was for her to be comfortable. I did tell her my dogs go to daycare 4 days a week so I know my dogs are well behaved but you still never know. I will definitely be using her again. She already said she would be happy to watch my dogs for my vacation in July.”

“Cedric was honestly one of the best sitters I have ever used on Rover! He was so flexible in drop off and pick up, communicated very well and gave my boy Nitro all the attention he needed. He treated my dog like a part of the family. I would 100% use Cedric again without a doubt!”

“Jennifer and family were great!! I think they went above and beyond to care for our dog Chewie while we were out of town for Thanksgiving. I would highly recommend her and will book her again when needed!! Thanks Jennifer💕”

“Victoria was an absolutely fantastic cat sitter for our cat, Piper! We loved getting her picture updates and every photo showed Piper looking happy and completely comfortable. We truly appreciate the wonderful care she provided, and it gave us so much peace of mind knowing Piper was safe and well-cared for while we were on vacation. Highly recommend!”


“Our 1.5 yr old shy cattle dog stayed with Grant for a week. He was patient and kind, and let her come out of her shell on her own time. And by the third day she was running around outside playing with a doggie friend. He send picture throughout the stay so we could see she was fine with helped us relax for our vacation!”

“So glad Poulette and Jennifer could accommodate our dogs who are reactive but did very well staying with them. We got updates and appreciated the great communication. Dogs were happy with the outdoor time too!”

“Our dogs stay with Achara went so smoothly! It was their first time overnight and a long extended stay so I was initially nervous to leave them for that long, but Achara’s communication and care were excellent all the way through! Our young one looked to be having so much fun running and playing with Achara’s puppy and our older one looked very happy and comfortable doing her own thing 🥰 We were overall very happy and not nervous once we saw how happy the dogs were in the daily photos and videos that were sent to us. Thanks Achara for a great experience! We’ll definitely be back again!”

“Grisel was AMAZING!! She was communicative and sent many photos of Lillie to me! They have a wonderful large yard where all the dogs could hangout and play, and she even took Lillie for a walk in the evening to help with her bowels. I felt comfortable leaving Lillie in Griselda’s care and will definitely be booking with her again!”

“Jena and family provided very loving and attentive care of our dog Harper. They took her for walks, played with her, loved on her and were very understanding and persistent in encouraging Harper to eat (she is more into people and play than food). Jena provided photos often showing Harper’s time with them which we enjoyed and appreciated. I highly recommend Jena and would be happy to use her services again.”

“Qing was a fantastic pet sitter. Super communicative and I felt at ease the whole weekend. Lilah loved her stay and was active, loved and very appreciative of all the attention she got. Will book again!”

“We had the absolute pleasure of meeting Sandra and her family who meticulously cared for our pups while we had to go out of town for a funeral. During a very difficult time, Sandra and her family helped take in our pups and made them a part of their own pack. Our two pups deeply enjoyed their time with Sandra’s family. We were provided up to date information, photos and video clips of our pups and their activities everyday. If you are looking for someone who will meticulously care for your pups and treat them like their own, we would definitely recommend Sandra! We are looking to book with Sandra again in the future!”

“Sam was great with our two dogs (a lab and a shihpoo). They seemed so happy and well adjusted when we picked them up. He was responsive and flexible and I would absolutely use him again!”
