“Amy and Justin are great! This is the second time we have used them and they always taken great care of our boy. We got daily photos and updates. Toby got to play with different dogs and was tired when he got home which tells us he had a good time.”
“We are so relieved to have a smart, reliable family... to watch our Haru when we're away. They kept me updated throughout Haru’s stay. We highly recommend Mike and Patricia!”
“Ruchi and Nitin are amazing. Henderson was well cared for, happy, and comfortable the entire time. Excellent communication and very reliable. Would absolutely recommend and rebook!”
“Thank you so much Maisy for taking care of our pup over the weekend! We knew he was in excellent hands and reassured that he was receiving so much love from your family. We will definitely contact you for future bookings!!”
“Kimberlee and her two boys took excellent care of our pup! She was very accommodating of our "flexible" pug who, surprisingly, can jump up onto tables and bathtub rims. Kimberlee also met with us ahead of time to make sure that our pup and her dog got along. She sent us photo updates throughout the day as well. I would highly recommend!”
“Debbie is the best!! We recently lost our long time dog sitter and were anxious about leaving our senior dog with GI issues and anxiety with someone new while we left town for a few days with limited cell service. Lila didn’t even want to come home when we picked her up!! She was very comfortable with Lila’s needs, sent us updates and was flexible on pickup time. I’ve used a lot of dog sitters in my time and she is one of the best!! So competent, communicative and a true animal lover. Thank you Debbie!!”
“Alyssa was great to work with, and our dog was immediately comfortable at her home. Alyssa is patient, welcoming, and very easygoing. I felt completely comfortable leaving my senior dog with her. She handled his medications well, kept him safe and happy, and sent regular updates and pics. She is caring and has an amazing yard for dogs to play and explore safely. I brought home a happy boy! I highly recommend Alyssa!”
“Barbara and family was very kind and welcoming to my dog. She asked all the questions that made me feel like my girl was going to be well taken care of even to the extent of switching her sleeping habits to my dog’s. I highly recommend! Thank you so much for taking care of my girl!”
“Sixuan was incredibly attentive, following all of my feeding instructions to the letter, taking Andi on regular walks, and ensuring she had her potty breaks every three hours or so. Coming home to find Andi looking so happy relaxed and healthy gave me total peace of mind. She sent regular pictures with updates about her welfare . I gladly give Sixuan 5 stars for her excellent service and cannot recommend Sixuan highly enough! She did an absolutely wonderful job looking after my fur-baby!”
About: I have always had a pet dog throughout my life, so being around dogs feels natural to me. Taking care of them has been part of my daily routine, from feeding and walking them to making sure they are happy and healthy. Over time, I’ve learned how to understand their behavior and needs, which has helped me build a strong connection with them. Dogs have always been an important part of my life, and I enjoy spending time with them and caring for them. I work from home and love the challenge of some dogs. I wake up at 5 and feed my own dog and do some work. After I usually take him out for walks through the day. I walk him about 2 miles and can also walk your own dog, just tell me and I can do it. I can also follow any strict dietary restrictions if your dogs requires it for food. After around 3 I am free and spend time with my dogs all day after and chill with him beside me. But, if your dogs requires sheds a lot, I can’t promise he will be sleeping with me or be laying on the couch, I have a specialized ginormous dog bed for he/she. I live in El Dorado Hills, so it is very hilly in some areas, including my home. I have a big dog kennel outside that is surrounded by a fence, while I have a large dog cage inside my house that can also be used. I also have a area for the dogs to run and play in my backyard.
“Sharon and Henry were absolutely amazing! They are extremely caring and went above and beyond to make sure Tony felt at home. They sent plenty of pictures and updates, which really helped ease my anxiety — I didn’t have a single moment of concern the entire time. It was clear Tony enjoyed his stay and was showered with love and attention. I couldn’t have asked for better sitters. Highly recommend them to anyone looking for truly thoughtful and reliable care!”
“Patti and her husband took great care of my puppy! I was updated with pictures and videos the whole time. I felt at ease knowing Tilly was in such safe and caring hands❤️”
About: I have been actively taking care of pets my whole life. I love animals and treat them like my own children. I have a 10 year old daughter who is on her way to become a vet and wife who loves pets just as much! I work from home and can accommodate your schedule at anytime needed. I would be happy to make sure that your pet has the best experience. I have a fully fenced yard on a quiet street. I allow pets to use any furniture they would like to make themselves a home
“My two yorkies had a great visit! Nanci was very knowledgeable and asked all the right questions to make me feel comfortable leaving my fur babies in her care. She has five small dogs herself that I know my dogs had a blast playing with. Her house was cute in a nice area of Redwood City. I will most defiantly use Nanci again! ”
“This is my second time using Rover and I couldn't be happier! I'm pretty sure Tucker didn't even want to come home after his stay at Walee's. He had an absolute blast running around her huge yard with her dog Ike. As I type this, Tucker is still sleeping on the couch after a solid 3 hour nap. I would absolutely recommend Walee to anyone looking for someone to watch their dog!”
“I can’t thank Amber enough! She took care of our dog on less than a week’s notice due to an emergency and was incredibly accommodating and flexible with both pickup and drop-off times. Her communication was excellent—she kept me updated during the drive to her home, throughout the stay, and even when we were arranging pickup. She sent lots of happy photos, and it was clear our pup was having a great time. Our dog came home happy. If I’m ever in the area again, I’d absolutely book with her again without hesitation!”
About: I've been helping care for friends' and family's dogs since I was 10 years old. Because I've always loved dogs and hoped to have one of my own someday, I've spent a lot of time learning about dog care, behavior, training, and enrichment. I've worked with puppies frequently in the past and am comfortable with the extra patience, supervision, and consistency they require. Whether it's walks, playtime, feeding, or sticking to a specific routine, I always make sure pets feel safe, happy, and well cared for. Pet care fits great into my routine. I have a flexible schedule, and I'm available throughout most weekdays for walks, drop-in visits, feeding, and playtime and I always make sure to follow each pet's routine as closely as possible. While I do have some weekend commitments and can't do late nights, I have an otherwise open schedule. When caring for pets in a client's home, I make it a priority to follow their normal routine as closely as possible. I make sure pets are fed on schedule, have fresh water, get plenty of exercise and playtime, and receive the attention they need. When caring for puppies, I'm especially attentive to potty breaks, supervision, and maintaining any training routines. I'll also make keep the owners updated throughout the day.
“Had a last minute trip and needed to find someone to watch my dog. None of my friend's were available, so I had to use someone on Rover. I was very nervous, as I hadn't used Rover before. My dog is very important to me and it was unsettling to leave him with a stranger. However, the stay with Kate worked out really well. She was flexible and accommodating throughout the entire process. From scheduling our initial visit, to drop off, to pickup. Flexible drop off and pick up times are huge and are one of the biggest hassles when dealing with a kennel. She was nice enough to assemble and disassemble his crate for me, which was a nice surprise, given how hectic traveling can be. I look forward to future bookings with Kate.”

“Maddy was our first Rover sitter for our 2 cats. Both are easy and just need to be fed and our tabby likes to have some attention. Maddy was consistent with her visits and we appreciated that and communicated when she needed to adjust her visit time. We have another booking with Maddy in the coming week.”
About: I've taken care of and raised my own cat Link since we adopted him from a shelter event! He's almost 7 now and doing wonderfully! I've also volunteered at an outdoor cat sanctuary for over a year, taking care of cats with special needs and caring for them!
“Lauren was amazing and Mr. Kitty was instantly comfortable with her. She was very detailed, communicative, and went above and beyond to make sure our house and Kitty were well looked after. Will definitely be rebooking. Thank you once again for everything, Lauren!”
About: I don’t have much experience with taking care of cats. Most of my friends do own cats and so always hang out with them. I have volunteered at Fat Kitty City where there are a multitude of cats that I feed.
“Justin is easy to work with and a great communicator. We appreciated that he got back to us right away to confirm his availability and provided twice daily updates on our dogs. We won’t hesitate to recommend him to our friends and neighbors. Thanks Justin!”
“Amy was great and so sweet with my two cats! She followed directions well (my overly specific notes lol), and was caring to my more sensitive adult cat as well as my friendly kitten! She also didn’t bat an eye when my older cat unexpectedly barfed two separate times and she cleaned it up. Everything was clean and tidy when we arrrived home! Will book Amy again”
“Natalie is such a great drop-in sitter. She is super trustworthy and responsible. She is great with our cat and bearded dragon and a wonderful communicator! Highly recommend her!”
“Candace was an awesome petsitter for our two kitties, Evie & Jaffy! She was very attentive to all the details of their care that I had requested. Her love of animals was readily apparent when she meet our kitties for the first time. Daily updates and photos were appreciated while we were on vacation, and gave us peace of mind. Candace also watched over our home, watering house plants and monitoring a few items with the pool. We were very pleased with all the care Candace provided and we would highly recommend her to anyone.”
About: I’ve had animals my entire life—dogs, cats, even a few rescued bunnies from my childhood in rural Canada. Over the years, I’ve volunteered at more than five shelters across the country and even served as their photographer, helping showcase adoptable pets so they could find forever homes. We adopted a cat in June 2025. Her name is Astra and she is a talker!! She loves to cuddle on your lap when you are watching TV too! March 28, 2026 We are currently fostering 5 year old Parker from the El Dorado County shelter hoping to become his forever home. He is a super sweet and smart dogs. He just needs some manners. My heart has always had a soft spot for older dogs; my last two rescues, Barney (a Swiss Mountain Dog) and Lucky (a German Shepherd/Collie mix), were both adopted as adults from the Camarillo Shelter. I’m comfortable with big breeds, senior pups, and rescues who need a little extra understanding. Whether it’s walks, meds, playtime, or just quiet company, I’ll treat your pet like my own. I’m a photographer, which means my busiest time is usually golden hour — that sweet spot right before sunset. The rest of the day? Totally flexible. I make my own schedule and mostly shoot local sessions, so I’m never far from home (or from your pup!). I can easily fit in walks, drop-ins, and all the belly rubs in between. I treat every pet like they’re my own—snuggles, walks, belly rubs, and yes, a lot of photos. (Perks of hiring a photographer as your sitter!) Whether I’m in your home or mine, I keep their routine consistent and their tail wagging. I’ll send you photo updates so you can see their happy face while you’re away. I’m especially great with big dogs, seniors, and rescues who just need a little extra love and patience.
About: I have cared for cats of many needs in my experience. Varied in age and temperament, I have worked with the shyest cats and stayed with them until they were comfortable around me. I have also had experience administering medicine to cats I was caring for.
“Michele was great and efficient! She went above and beyond for our cats and we are grateful to have found her! Really appreciated the detailed update and the photos she sent over?”
About: I have raised dogs for over 20 years. We have had two puppies and two rescue dogs. We have raised a Shetland Sheepdog, a Golden Retriever and two Siberian Husky mixes. I have also taken care of my friends dogs while they were on vacation at my home or drop in visits at their homes. I can’t imagine life without a dog. They are family and a priority. I am a Teacher and I currently tutor part time after school so I have a lot of flexibility and time to take care of my family and our pets and your pet. I am vigilant about making sure that I always know that the pets in my care are safe. That means that the yard has a secure fence with the gates closed. I make sure that dogs in my care are safe at all times.

“Candace is an expert as a dog sitter. It is the first time for Haru to be with daycare. Haru does enjoy his stay, had lots of fun with candance’s two dogs. Also enjoy reading. Haru is very happy at the end,he does not even want to leave when I picked up him. Candace did a good job :)”
“Highly recommend. Nanci IS the 'dog whisperer'. She was able to sense all of my dog's needs (good and bad), and made her stay comfortable, enjoyable and safe. My dog suffers from separation anxiety, and Nancy took extra care to give her plenty of lap time. I received lots of great updates, photos and videos. Can't get enough of those, and Nanci has a wonderful photographer's eye. Can you really tell that Nanci has years and years of experience, which helped this anxious mom to feel confident. And the icing? Nanci (and her whole human and furry pack) are super friendly and nice to be around.”
“Henry and Sharon have been amazing dog sitters for my 7month old puppy Bodhi. They watch him for puppy daycare one day weekly. They are very communicative and reliable and make sure they understand your dog’s personality and care needs so they can make it a comfortable and positive stay. We had a meet and greet with their dog Rufus prior to setting up daycare and Bodhi and Rufus play very well together. They always send a Rover card documenting how the day went with photos and potty breaks. They even go above and beyond and give Bodhi mental enrichment with puzzles and healthy treats. Thank you Sharon and Henry for taking such good care of my little boy!”
“We were visiting Folsom for a birthday party and left our Pomeranian with Shannon for about 4 hours so we wouldn't have to worry about Belle getting fed by the kids and all. It was so nice to be able to relax while Belle hung out with Shannon and some other dogs! All went well and we got a few videos of Belle! Shannon was very good at communicating with us.”
“Marisa was the best sitter for our pup Harley! Excellent communication throughout the day, and made me feel 100% comfortable knowing Harley was getting all the love! Would definitely recommend Marisa to anyone and will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Wonderful experience! Thanks so much for taking such great care of Tamiko. I really appreciated the two walks and the photos you sent to keep me updated. It was clear Tamiko received lots of tender loving care. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with you again. Highly recommend!”
About: We always had dogs in my family. Growing up our Dog was a family member in fact definitely mom‘s favourite child! My wife and I have been married almost 40 years and dogs have been our children. We both love dogs and having recently lost our own girl of 14 years so we have a lot of love to give I understand what it takes to intrust your beloved pet to someone, I would treat any pet in my care like it was my own child!! With lots and lots of love there’s a huge park we could walk to right down the street from our house which is private in our village we love taking our puppies down there to socialise and or just walk. There’s also 2 miles worth of walking trails in our community. Well first off we give them lots and lots of love!! We’ve always had dogs that are allowed on the furniture and sleep on our bed however we will follow the directions of its owner. We like to take them for walks and play with them and keep them mentally active as well as physically. We would always walk them on a leash and take great care when they are around any other kind of animals or people. Basically, we would treat them with the greatest care like we would our own child! And of course give them lots and lots of love.
“Megan was an excellent sitter for my pup Harley! Great communication throughout the day and I felt 100% comfortable knowing she was taking good care of my baby! 10/10 would recommend :)”
“Erika was great about allowing me a last minute booking. If you like a family of kids and a sweet german shepard to keep your fur friend company this is the place. They were able to accommodate my dog getting used to new sites and sounds and a little anxiety. Would recommend them!”
“Alexa provided such a wonderful Rover experience. She's a great communicator, very attuned to a pet's care instructions, and I came back to find my pup so relaxed and happy with her. I wouldn't hesitate to book again with her, thank you Alexa!”
“My golden Piper stayed with Stephanie whole we had a project going on at home. She’s lovely - we had some unexpected schedule changes and she was accommodating to that. Present pictures of the dog and my very hyper girl came home exhausted after a day of playing with Stephanie's two dogs. I would absolutely use Stephanie again and I’m so happy we found her!”
About: I grew up with Afghan hounds, so dogs have been a part of my life forever. We adopted our first rescue, Jazzy, in 2015. We have adopted adult cats and kittens. I usually remember pet names before I remember human names when I meet somebody new. I can do in-home boarding for a cat or small dog/puppy if they can get along with our kitten. Otherwise I can come to your home and tuck your fur babies in and greet them early in the morning. Please reach out to discuss. During the day, I am available to walk your dog, feed and play with your pets, and provide all kinds of TLC. Call me! I'm currently building a business as a realtor. I grew up in Southern California, and lived in Alabama for 21 years, where I was a French professor. I moved to El Dorado Hills in 2023 to be near family. Four generations of my family, from my mom down to my four-year-old grandson, live in the Sacramento area. I love pets, and I'd love to help you with yours when you're on the road. I work with clients to provide the kind of customized care that their pet needs. I know pets have all personality types. Some like cuddles, some do not. We are there for your pets needs, whatever they may be.
“Jenny was great with Raafi! She followed all the care instructions provided. When we picked him up at the end of the day, he kept looking at Jenny from the car while she walked back into the house. That’s how we know he really bonded with her. Thank you Jenny for looking after our puppy!”
“Aguarin is such a nice and sweet guy. I need to find a babysitter very last minute. He replied to my daycare request right away, was super responsive and nice about everything. He also sent me timely updates during the day and my corgi looked very happy and cozy. Definitely recommend!!”

“Lauren helped us out with a last minute booking. We instantly felt very comfortable with her and she was great with our dog. Punctual and great communication. We will definitely book her again.”
“Dorothy was wonderful! She was friendly, reliable, and took great care of Daisy during her walks. Daisy was always excited to see her each day and clearly enjoyed getting out for exercise and plenty of time to sniff and explore. It gave us peace of mind knowing Daisy was in such caring hands. We definitely would recommend Dorothy for a trustworthy and compassionate dog walker!”
“Amy is very thorough and thoughtful. She took copious notes on my senior dog and changed her diaper and wiped her paws awesomely per my request. When faced with language barriers, Amy is still communicative, kind and respectful— my mom liked her too!”
About: I have always been lucky enough to have a dog growing up. I have looked after my neighbors pets multiple times as well. I am very comfortable around all types. As for cats I have never personally taken care of any but I do volunteer at the shelter that has both cats and dogs. When I come to take care of, play with, and walk your dogs I will dedicate my time to loving them and treat them as if they were my own. I have one family dog named Charles. He is a Lagotto Romagnolo and he truly is my bestfriend. I am interning at an accounting firm and I work Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday from 8 to 5 pm. I am free to pet sit these days too after 5. Since I sit at a desk all day, I have a lot of energy leftover and love going on walks and playing with my dog in the evening. Hopefully in the future yours too!! I currently have a dog and he is a big part of my life. I love exercising and everyone I do cardio he joins me for my walks. He loves playing fetch so I am used to that. I also just love a pets affection and love. I constantly walk my dog, take him to the dog park (even though all he does is sit in the shade), I feed him every night and give him infinite kisses!
About: Ever since I was a little girl, I’ve always been surrounded by animals! My next-door neighbor would trust me for weeks at a time to take care of her old cat, and I would always take care of my pets when my parents weren’t home. Over the past year and a half, I worked at a local veterinary clinic as a veterinary assistant! I have experience with dogs and cats of all ages. I’ve decided to take on pet-sitting full time while I finish college with my career goal being a veterinarian! I also own a leopard gecko, giving me experience handling exotic reptiles! Whether your pets need frequent potty breaks, walks, play-dates, or any sort of medication, I’m your gal! Your pet’s safety and well-being will always be my top priority! I’m currently unemployed, and about to finish my college semester- giving me of the time in the world to work with you and your pets! My availability will always be flexible and I will be attentive to any of your needs. I live with one (soon to be two) dogs! My current dog is very sweet and sociable- she loves to make new friends! I’m used to taking big and small dogs on walks, and am more than willing to take your pet on a playdate with mine! I can crate your animal, prepare special meals, and clean up after them if they’re used to going potty in your backyard! Same thing applies to cats and their litter-boxes! I will always be sure to make sure your pets are comfortable while you’re away.
“Lauren was very thoughtful about the heat when walking my pup. She was so detailed when leaving a message. It made my day reading them knowing my pup is safe. She sent me pictures and my pup looked so happy to see her every time. Thank you so much 11/10”

About: I've been helping care for friends' and family's dogs since I was 10 years old.

I've worked with puppies frequently in the past and am comfortable with the extra patience, supervision, and consistency they require. Whether it's walks, playtime, feeding, or sticking to a specific routine, I always make sure pets feel safe, happy, and well cared for. Pet care fits great into my routine. I have a flexible schedule, and I'm available throughout most weekdays for walks, drop-in visits, feeding, and playtime and I always make sure to follow each pet's routine as closely as possible. While I do have some weekend commitments and can't do late nights, I have an otherwise open schedule. When caring for pets in a client's home, I make it a priority to follow their normal routine as closely as possible. I make sure pets are fed on schedule, have fresh water, get plenty of exercise and playtime, and receive the attention they need.

Our dogs spend most of their time both inside and outside the house. They sleep inside and usually get up in the morning around 6:30am.
About: An avid animal lover since a young age. I have had a variety of animals growing up from dogs and cats to chickens and goats. I’ve made animals into my career studying animal science for 3 years, working in animal care for 4, and certified fear free techniques. I am currently working in animal care just under full time with weekends and Mondays free. My schedule is very flexible and accommodating to new furry friends. I have interacted with such a large variety of pets and have always taken great care to treat them as they were my own. In my own home I ensure they are happy and healthy, with this same mentality passed onto client’s pets.
About: I have grown up with all kinds of pets— dogs, cats, bunnies, horses, fish, etc! I have always been trusted with family, friends, and neighbors pets when they are out of town! I am home currently from school for Summer break, and really have no set routine, so I am very flexible and can carve time out of my schedule whenever needed! I am very easy going and have no problem following whatever instructions are given to me, I love to give attention to animals however understand when animals are more timid and am good at offering space.
About: I owned a dog camp for 10 years in the mountains outside of Boulder, CO. My daughter and I want to share our love and knowledge of animals with others. We have lots of experience and would love to spend time with your furry friends. My staff and I also worked extensively with Tenderfoot Trainers in Boulder, CO, and I have experience with a variety of dog personalities. We have a very flexible schedule and work from home. I have a small import business and work from home. My daughter homeschools and has various classes and lessons throughout the week. We can provide care (walks, food, snuggling, and potty breaks) in the early morning, at lunchtime, and/or dinner time as well as do sleepovers. We provide services housesitting, dog-walking, feeding, and giving potty breaks. Both my daughter and I love animals and we treat all pets as if they were our own. We understand how challenging it is to be away from your furry family but we will give lots of love, send lots of pics and do our best to form a lasting and loving relationship with your dog while you're away. We hope that your pup has as much fun as you while on vacation!
About: Hi! My name is Auva, and I have been a petsitter for four years. I have also spent the last five years part-time nannying, tutoring, and gardening, all which have made me even more patient and compassionate. I am very attentive and want you to feel your pets are in good hands, and I strive to make you and your pet as comfortable as possible while you can't be with them. I love walking and am always happier with a furry friend as a companion. I am flexible and have experience caring for dogs and cats of all sizes, ages, temperaments, and some who needed a little extra effort (post-surgery, shy, aggressive, etc). I am a university student home on summer break. My schedule is fairly open and pet care fits in very easily, alongside my part-time research position which is hybrid online/in-person. I often walk, whether or not I am petsitting, so making sure potty breaks, playtime, and walks happen is no problem for me! I care for pets in client homes, and with years of experience in overnight child and pet care, I know how to respectfully visit your home. I either come and go or stay overnight based on what you prefer and what makes you most comfortable. I also love keeping owners updated with texts/pictures/videos if they want!
“Candace is awesome!!!!!! She truly cares and loves on our dogs. She is extremely diligent in her commitment to walking Wilson- and he just loves being able to get out and get some exercise with her.”
“Lisa was great! I really appreciated that she took the time to do a meet and greet a few days prior to our first walk so that she could determine if we would be a good fit!”
About: Hi there! My name is Marisa and here’s a little bit to know about me..I was raised on a large property with many pets, from furry to scaly. As I’ve grown up and raised my children we have always had animals in our home as well. I have fostered many species over the years- from tube feeding puppies to bottle baby kittens, birds, reptiles and small animals. I love animals if you can’t tell! There aren’t many domestic species that I haven’t gotten my fair share of experience with- and I am always eager to learn more about a new species I come across. We have 3 dogs (one having a cleft palate), and a cat of our own and I know how it feels to struggle to find someone you trust to care for your home, your animals and their many quirks.

“Amy and Justin are great! This is the second time we have used them and they always taken great care of our boy. We got daily photos and updates. Toby got to play with different dogs and was tired when he got home which tells us he had a good time.”
“Thank you so much Maisy for taking care of our pup over the weekend! We knew he was in excellent hands and reassured that he was receiving so much love from your family. We will definitely contact you for future bookings!!”
“Kimberlee and her two boys took excellent care of our pup! She was very accommodating of our "flexible" pug who, surprisingly, can jump up onto tables and bathtub rims. Kimberlee also met with us ahead of time to make sure that our pup and her dog got along. She sent us photo updates throughout the day as well. I would highly recommend!”
“Debbie is the best!! We recently lost our long time dog sitter and were anxious about leaving our senior dog with GI issues and anxiety with someone new while we left town for a few days with limited cell service. Lila didn’t even want to come home when we picked her up!! She was very comfortable with Lila’s needs, sent us updates and was flexible on pickup time. I’ve used a lot of dog sitters in my time and she is one of the best!! So competent, communicative and a true animal lover. Thank you Debbie!!”
“Sixuan was incredibly attentive, following all of my feeding instructions to the letter, taking Andi on regular walks, and ensuring she had her potty breaks every three hours or so. Coming home to find Andi looking so happy relaxed and healthy gave me total peace of mind. She sent regular pictures with updates about her welfare . I gladly give Sixuan 5 stars for her excellent service and cannot recommend Sixuan highly enough! She did an absolutely wonderful job looking after my fur-baby!”
About: I have always had a pet dog throughout my life, so being around dogs feels natural to me. Taking care of them has been part of my daily routine, from feeding and walking them to making sure they are happy and healthy. Over time, I’ve learned how to understand their behavior and needs, which has helped me build a strong connection with them. Dogs have always been an important part of my life, and I enjoy spending time with them and caring for them. I work from home and love the challenge of some dogs. I wake up at 5 and feed my own dog and do some work. After I usually take him out for walks through the day. I walk him about 2 miles and can also walk your own dog, just tell me and I can do it. I can also follow any strict dietary restrictions if your dogs requires it for food. After around 3 I am free and spend time with my dogs all day after and chill with him beside me. But, if your dogs requires sheds a lot, I can’t promise he will be sleeping with me or be laying on the couch, I have a specialized ginormous dog bed for he/she. I live in El Dorado Hills, so it is very hilly in some areas, including my home. I have a big dog kennel outside that is surrounded by a fence, while I have a large dog cage inside my house that can also be used. I also have a area for the dogs to run and play in my backyard.

“This is my second time using Rover and I couldn't be happier! I'm pretty sure Tucker didn't even want to come home after his stay at Walee's. He had an absolute blast running around her huge yard with her dog Ike. As I type this, Tucker is still sleeping on the couch after a solid 3 hour nap. I would absolutely recommend Walee to anyone looking for someone to watch their dog!”
“I can’t thank Amber enough! She took care of our dog on less than a week’s notice due to an emergency and was incredibly accommodating and flexible with both pickup and drop-off times. Her communication was excellent—she kept me updated during the drive to her home, throughout the stay, and even when we were arranging pickup. She sent lots of happy photos, and it was clear our pup was having a great time. Our dog came home happy. If I’m ever in the area again, I’d absolutely book with her again without hesitation!”
About: I've been helping care for friends' and family's dogs since I was 10 years old. Because I've always loved dogs and hoped to have one of my own someday, I've spent a lot of time learning about dog care, behavior, training, and enrichment. I've worked with puppies frequently in the past and am comfortable with the extra patience, supervision, and consistency they require. Whether it's walks, playtime, feeding, or sticking to a specific routine, I always make sure pets feel safe, happy, and well cared for. Pet care fits great into my routine. I have a flexible schedule, and I'm available throughout most weekdays for walks, drop-in visits, feeding, and playtime and I always make sure to follow each pet's routine as closely as possible. While I do have some weekend commitments and can't do late nights, I have an otherwise open schedule. When caring for pets in a client's home, I make it a priority to follow their normal routine as closely as possible. I make sure pets are fed on schedule, have fresh water, get plenty of exercise and playtime, and receive the attention they need. When caring for puppies, I'm especially attentive to potty breaks, supervision, and maintaining any training routines. I'll also make keep the owners updated throughout the day.
“Had a last minute trip and needed to find someone to watch my dog. None of my friend's were available, so I had to use someone on Rover. I was very nervous, as I hadn't used Rover before. My dog is very important to me and it was unsettling to leave him with a stranger. However, the stay with Kate worked out really well. She was flexible and accommodating throughout the entire process. From scheduling our initial visit, to drop off, to pickup. Flexible drop off and pick up times are huge and are one of the biggest hassles when dealing with a kennel. She was nice enough to assemble and disassemble his crate for me, which was a nice surprise, given how hectic traveling can be. I look forward to future bookings with Kate.”
“Irina is experienced. She had a plan ready for acclimating my dogs to their new environment and handled having multiple dogs together well. She was communicative and flexible.”
“Melissa was the perfect person to take care of our Sara. She had a great time with Melissa’s pups and family. She kept us informed on how Sara was doing each day. This was great for us as it was Sara’s first boarding experience. We know Sara had a blast!! Melissa thank you for welcoming Sara, Rich and I. We enjoyed you and meeting your family!! Hugs 🤗. Thank you.”
“Belle came home happy and exhausted from her stay with Jena and family. I know she received a lot of love and attention and daily exercise, and that’s exactly what Belle needs, when she’s away from home. Jena was great about sending updates and photos and she was very patient and understanding when Belle had tummy and sleep issues.”
“Rosanne is absolutely amazing!! She is so sweet and great caring that I feel 100% comfortable leaving my dog in her care. I very much appreciated the photos and updates that Rosanne provided throughout Haru's stay. She and her family gave Haru so much love. Thank you!! HIGHLY recommend you use her services. I will definitely board Haru here again!”
“This is the 2nd time Galady took care of our Ziggy. She is the best petsitter we can have, sending us pictures and letting us know how Ziggy feels. This time Ziggy stayed for 12hours at her house. Ziggy was so happy to see again Galady and her doggie Pepper. For sure, Ziggy had a great time and he will come back!”
“Sandra took amazing care of our golden retriever. She has a perfect set up for doggie care. She is caring and attentive. I highly recommend her and will definitely leave our dog with her again when we go out of town.”
